In the depths of the green, flowers were flying, and a blue figure under the five-color petals had a bloodless face. His eyebrows were furrowed and he leaned back against the tree, breathing heavily.
He almost exhausted his last ounce of spiritual power before he sacrificed the golden shell he had when he transformed into a butterfly and replaced his true body. The golden shell was hit and burned by the fireball, but he was lucky enough to hide it from Que Hentian.
Although he escaped, he was seriously injured after all. After Que Hentian left, he came to the bottom of the mountain valley in a daze, crouched under the five-color tree, and barely supported himself by the honey in the five-color petals on the tree.
He didn't know how long he had been sleeping here, and he didn't know how far away this dense forest full of colorful flowers was from the fog house he came to earlier. For the current plan, he had to recover from his injuries before making any plans.
Yifeng was about to close her eyes and adjust her breathing, but suddenly she heard a crisp and ethereal tune coming from mid-air: "The sky is blue, the water is clear..."
His eyes tightened, and he quickly glanced at his blood-stained wings. He shrunk and saw that the man in green clothes had disappeared, but he saw a seven-colored caterpillar among the petals where he was leaning, closing his eyes and meditating.
.
As the song approached, a palm-sized sparrow appeared on top of the seven-colored caterpillar's head. Under its brightly colored feathers, it could be seen that its two sharp claws were moving silently towards the caterpillar.
His dark eyes were full of surprise, his cone-like mouth was slightly open, and crystal liquid seemed to be flowing down from his mouth. He let out a burst of admiration from his throat: "Tsk, tsk, tsk! What a big caterpillar! It must be delicious!"
I'm so lucky today. I encountered such a big bug as soon as I went out. Hehe, I haven't eaten meat for several years because of my spiritual practice. I have to make up for it this time..."
While drooling unscrupulously, it raised its paws and pushed the big caterpillar in front of it. Unexpectedly, it just touched him lightly, and felt a flash of green light in front of its eyes. When it looked at the five-color petals, it was already empty.
Nothing.
"Ah?! My flesh! Where's my flesh! Who? Who dares to touch Xiao Xi's flesh? Get out of here! Don't you know whose territory this is..." Xiao Caique's cheeks bulged in anger, only
After hearing a loud "bang", a girl wearing a light green dress stood under the tree, with one hand on her hips and one pointing to the sky, shouting curses.
Yifeng looked pale and hid beside the five-color tree beside her. He looked at her carefully. He saw that her eyebrows were as fine as feathers, her skin was as white as snow, and her waist was like a bunch of silk. Her light green dress looked perfect under the five-color tree.
She was particularly delicate, but she was such a petite woman, but she had astonishing strength and voice. She cursed with her hands on her hips and her head raised for a full half an hour before she slowly stopped.
Yifeng did not dare to disturb her, so he could only cling to the tree trunk and endure the severe pain all over his body. Only when the surroundings finally calmed down did he dare to take a breath.
But this breath exposed his hiding place.
He only felt a cool breeze whizzing by his neck, and a pair of soft and cold catkins slowly touched his wrist. The woman in green was looking at him with inexplicable surprise in her eyes.
"Who are you? Did you steal my caterpillar? Say it quickly!" She exerted a little force on her hand, and his face turned almost transparent and his body swayed. She was a little at a loss, and the strength in her hand quickly disappeared.
Follow-up question: "Don't pretend to be pitiful! Return my caterpillar quickly! Otherwise, don't even think about leaving!"
Yifeng was seriously injured and had not recovered yet. He had been keeping an eye on her just now. Now it was difficult for him to maintain his human form. In order to prevent her from accidentally swallowing him when he was unconscious and showing his original form, he had to forcefully carry the real body.
Angry, he whispered: "Young lady, I have misunderstood. I am Caidie Yifeng. I was chased by my enemies and strayed into this deep valley. I have never stolen anything..."
He couldn't take a breath, he stopped talking, his eyes darkened, and he leaned on the shoulder of the woman in green.
The sun has moved westward, and the fog house is filled with mist again, adding a bit of sadness to the house that was already shrouded in death.
Most of the villagers who contracted the disease have died. Now only Xu Xingbang and his grandson are left in Xujia Village. There are only about twenty people alive in this house.
After the number of people dropped sharply, they were all squeezed into the three tiled houses, so they didn't have to suffer from the cold night in the courtyard.
As night falls, the fog gradually obscures the still clear moonlit sky.
Xi Meng's heart, which had finally calmed down during the day, began to become restless again as night fell.
"Ms. Meng, drink some water! Ahem..." When Luo Cheng handed the pottery bowl full of water to Shi Meng, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and the hand holding the water began to tremble, and his whole body felt like it was on fire.
The pottery bowl broke into several pieces with a bang, and he bent over and coughed.
"Luo Cheng, what's wrong with you?" Simeng helped him sit down in the corner and patted his back.
"It's okay, it's okay! Miss Meng, don't worry, she's just a little thirsty and her throat is itchy." Luo Cheng stiffened and moved to the side, raised his sleeves to cover his mouth, and said hoarsely.
In fact, even if he didn't say it, Xi Meng had already guessed it.
He is probably infected too. Is he avoiding her like this for fear of infecting her? I guess he is also a poor man. He was innocently robbed by bandits and exiled in a foreign country. However, he suffered misfortunes one after another. Now he is still infected with this fatal disease. He is afraid that
There is no hope of returning home.
Hey! She sighed quietly and looked at the fog outside the window. Her worry about Yifeng became more and more serious. He didn't come back for a long time after leaving, and she was haunted by nightmares again. Could something really happen?
With this thought, she could no longer sit still. She stood up and walked to the courtyard, shouting to the green figure in the mist: "Brother Mu, why don't you go to Yushan to find him! I'm a little worried."
Mu Zili's steps were light and he was in front of him in an instant, thinking thoughtfully: "Can you do it alone?"
Xi Meng's face showed a rare calmness, and he chuckled: "No problem, just go and come back soon!"
