After I left, the devil was distraught

In fact, Ember tried to go in when Hu Xiaoxiao was away, but he quickly backed out the door after seeing the fear in the young man's eyes.

Most of the time, he went in to have a look at Xue Qiong when Hu Xiaoxiao was there, because Xue Qiong would be less timid only when the third person was present.

Ember felt uncomfortable, but there was nothing she could do.

----

Xu Shi is someone who is really annoying and annoying, every time Hu Xiaoxiao came to look for Xueqiong, he always bumped into him, so Hu Xiaoxiao quickly thought of a way to take Ember away, and found him in advance. My master discussed the countermeasures together.

With the support of his own master, Hu Xiaoxiao's confidence became more and more abundant. He stood in front of Ember with his hands on his hips, and pretended to examine the other party from top to bottom before saying: "Are you being idle all day long as a door god? ?”

Seeing Ember's deafness, Hu Xiaoxiao increased his voice and continued: "Do you know that Xuanyun Mountain does not support idlers?"

"We are not in the devil world here, and we don't have so many servants to serve you. Do you know that Yuebai has worked hard to cook for me and Master every day, and now I have to serve you and Xueqiong." When writing, Hu Xiaoxiao deliberately lowered his voice very low.

Ember finally raised her eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I don't need to eat."

"You don't have to eat, you won't die of starvation anyway!" Hu Xiaoxiao lowered his voice again before continuing: "But what about Xue Qiong? You want him to starve with you? Starting today, Yuebai will only be me and her." Master's meal is ready, if you don't want Xueqiong to starve, go to the kitchen now."

Hearing the scrolling words, Ember narrowed her eyes in displeasure, but she didn't say much after all, and soon turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

He has held a knife and a sword in both hands, but he has never held a spatula. He can't cook, but he can't let Xueqiong starve.

From that day on, Ember started to learn how to cook, and also prepared medicine for Xueqiong every day.

In this way, Ember spent much less time guarding Xueqiong's door.

For this result, Hu Nanyan Xiaoxiao was very satisfied.

----

Even though Hu Xiaoxiao and Yue Bai tried every means to make him happy every day, he still couldn't really be happy.

A person without a past will always be uneasy after all.

Occasionally, Xueqiong would wonder what kind of monster he was, where were his parents, and whether he had...a Taoist companion.

Seeing Hu Xiaoxiao and Qianyuan Xianzun get along so intimately on weekdays, he is envious, and he can't help but wonder if he has ever had such feelings.

And more often, he was just sitting in the yard alone, occasionally looking at the clouds in the sky, staring at the bare trees in the yard, and occasionally couldn't help but secretly look at the embers that were always guarding not far away.

Whenever it was that time, I couldn't help but think, Ember wasn't born ugly, but why was he subconsciously afraid of him?

No, it's not that he's afraid of embers, it's just that embers make him... heartache?

He vaguely knew that there must be a deep entanglement between him and Ember.

But whenever he tries to find those lost memories, there will always be a voice appearing at the right time.

The voice told him not to think about it, it would only make him very painful.

Shaking her head to suppress the messy thoughts in her heart, Xueqiong pulled out the red string around her neck, pinched the small white jade pendant in her hand and looked at it again and again.

He only discovered this yesterday, and it seems to have been worn around his neck all the time.

A little rabbit pendant looks cute and tight, but his feelings towards this rabbit pendant are also a bit complicated, he obviously likes it but for some reason he still has some resistance.

Why?Thinking about it, Xue Qiong couldn't help being slightly lost in thought.

Ember, who was standing under the corridor and witnessed everything, suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, and subconsciously dug his nails into his palm.

The scene of the boy sleeping in the heavy snow 300 years ago suddenly unfolded before his eyes.

Ember clearly remembered... Xue Qiong's last move was to take off the jade pendant he gave her.

He couldn't lie to himself, he knew that Xue Qiong did that to cut off the entanglement between them, and she didn't want to have any entanglements with him anymore.

So what if he regains his memory...

Ember didn't want to think about it anymore, subconsciously raised her foot and walked towards the direction of the boy, stopped a step away from him, and said slowly: "Xueqiong..."

Hearing the words, Xue Qiong suddenly regained consciousness and looked up, seeing the sudden appearance of embers, he couldn't help being startled.

He was relieved when he was sure that the other party was not too close to him, but he still subconsciously clenched his palms.

"Ember...do you have anything to do with me?" Xue Qiong asked in a low voice with some hesitation.

"...You know my name is Ember?" The faint uneasiness in the young man's eyes made Ember's heart extremely bitter.

"...Well, I said it with a smile." Xue Qiong nodded timidly.

"Then did he say... what is my relationship with you?" When Ember asked this question, Ember's breathing was even a little short.

Hearing this, Xue Qiong fell into serious thinking, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head slowly, lowered his eyes and answered in a low voice: "Smile, I didn't say anything."

The young man's alienation deeply hurt Ember's eyes, and he couldn't help but took half a step closer, reaching out his hand to touch the young man's ink-like hair: "Then you, do you want to know the relationship between me and you?"

Noticing Ember's movements, Xue Qiong flinched in shock for a moment. He hurriedly stood up and avoided Ember's hand, frowning and shouting in fear: "What are you doing!"

Ember's outstretched hand just froze in place, and even the wound on her abdomen began to ache.

The person he risked his life to get back now treats him like a snake and scorpion and avoids him. He only feels that this kind of bone-piercing pain is more painful than heavenly thunder added to his body.

Ember's eyes flashed with deep pain, and it took him a long time to find his voice. He stared at the boy's eyes sadly, and his voice even trembled: "Xueqiong...you are afraid of me... ..."

Is he... crying?

Seeing the flash of water in the man's eyes, Xueqiong couldn't help being a little dazed, her voice subconsciously softened a lot, and she whispered: "...it's you... It's too close."

Ember's lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything.

He stared blankly at Xueqiong for a long time, and finally left the yard in a state of embarrassment.

----

The person who was always watching from a distance suddenly disappeared, and Xueqiong couldn't help thinking of him frequently.

Even when chatting with Hu Xiaoxiao, he would always look around subconsciously.

After two days like this, after seeing off Hu Xiaoxiao who came to chat with him on time every day, Xueqiong couldn't help but secretly left the temporary courtyard and went to the place where Ember lived.

Although Xuanyun Mountain is big, there are not many houses. Qianyuan Xianzun and Hu Xiaoxiao live in the largest Qingling Hall, Yuebai has a small courtyard of her own, and Xueqiong temporarily lives in a room in Yuebai Courtyard inside.

Other than that, there is only a lonely small house on the hill not far away.

So Xueqiong found the place where Ember lived with almost no effort.

The door of the house didn't seem to be closed tightly, and there was a gap that wasn't too narrow. Through this gap, Xue Qiong saw the embers lying on the bed.

Almost the moment Xue Qiong saw Ember, Ember also seemed to have a feeling and looked directly over.

Just looking at the person who appeared at the door, Ember couldn't believe her eyes, and even suspected that she was hallucinating due to illness, otherwise, how could Xue Qiong come to him.

She was caught after just one glance, Xueqiong couldn't help being a little embarrassed, and subconsciously opened her mouth to explain: "I... just passing by..."

At this moment, a gust of wind happened to blow over the top of the mountain, and the door panel that had been hidden was blown wide open in an instant.

Ember stared straight at the young man standing outside the door, her eyes were even a little red.

Thinking that it was an illusion anyway, not the real 'Xue Qiong', he asked a little weakly: "Can you come in? I want to see you..."

Seeing the frail appearance of the man, Xueqiong lifted her foot and walked gently into this overly shabby room.

But he didn't walk too close, and stopped two steps away from the embers.

After a long time, Xueqiong twisted her fingers and asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you?"

Ember looked at the boy beside the bed obsessively, and slowly shook her head: "It's okay."

In the following time, Xueqiong didn't speak again, and Ember didn't speak again.

The two stared at each other for a long time in such a strange atmosphere.

Until Xueqiong was really tired from standing, and happened to see a stool two steps away.

It's a pity that he didn't look carefully, and he didn't notice that the stool was missing a leg.

He walked over and sat on it without even thinking about it. It was no surprise that he fell down together with the stool, and the back of his head hit the ground hard. Xue Qiong's eyes were reddened instantly with pain.

'boom! '

Following the loud noise, Ember suddenly woke up.

He finally realized that the Xueqiong in front of him was not an illusion, but real!

At this moment, the young man fell to the ground with aggrieved tears. Ember could no longer care about the soreness all over her body, and immediately stumbled out of bed and picked up Xue Qiong, asking eagerly: "Where did you fall? Is it serious? Let me quickly." Look!"

Xueqiong was still in a daze at the moment, and didn't care whether Ember had crossed the line, she just covered the back of her head in pain and yelled pitifully: "It hurts... woo..."

"It's my fault, it's all my fault, I forgot to remind you that the stool is broken, don't cry, don't cry, let me see your injury first." Ember became more and more confused, hurriedly carried the boy back to the bed, and carefully pulled him away hand viewing the injury.

Only when she found that Xue Qiong's wound was only slightly swollen and not bleeding, Yu Jin heaved a sigh of relief, but continued to comfort the young man in her arms.

After a long time, Xueqiong finally recovered from the fright just now, and when he noticed that the two were too close, he was stunned again, and after realizing the reaction, he hurriedly got out of Ember's embrace and stood on the ground.

Wen Nuan suddenly left her arms, Ember withdrew her hand somewhat disappointedly, but still asked with concern: "Does it still hurt?"

"No."

Xue Qiong shook her head slowly, but she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled in her heart.

He smiled and said that Ember is bad and cruel, but he clearly feels that Ember is not bad these days, at least he hasn't found anything bad yet.

Thinking of this, Xue Qiong couldn't help but raised her eyes to look at Ember, but was startled by the glaring redness on the other's waist, and subconsciously shouted: "Blood! There's blood!"
