At dawn the next day, Lin Dongjiu suddenly woke up and saw Mu Ling'er sleeping soundly next to him, her face had returned to normal, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He wanted to get up and leave and come back when daylight came.
Otherwise, if Ling'er wakes up later and sees that he has run into her bed at some point, and then thinks that he is a pervert, he will really not be able to find a place to cry even if he wants to.
But after Lin Dongjiu struggled twice, he found that he could not straighten his waist and his limbs were very stiff.
He cursed secretly in his heart. It must be that the mysterious cold air invaded his body while holding Ling'er last night, and he was so cold that he still hasn't recovered from it.
Lin Dongjiu immediately mobilized the spiritual power in his Dantian to flow to his limbs, so that the limbs could slowly "thaw".
In his heart, he could only pray that Ling'er wouldn't wake up suddenly, and that it would be best to stay asleep for a while and a half, so that he would have a chance to leave.
Because Lin Dongjiu fell asleep with Mu Linger in his arms last night, he still kept his arms around her sideways when he woke up. As a result, his eyes inevitably fell on Mu Linger's delicate body.
The girl next to him curled up like a kitten. Her charming figure could outline a perfect golden arc in the rising sunlight. When Lin Dongjiu saw it, he couldn't help but feel confused.
Ling'er's clothes were a little thin, and if she changed her sleeping position at will, she would reveal a large area of snowy skin, which made Lin Dongjiu's blood surge and almost make him feel uneasy.
He quickly calmed down and quickly focused his gaze on Mu Linger's face, not daring to look at her body again.
But Mu Ling'er's sleeping face is also incredibly beautiful. Her long and upturned eyelashes are trembling slightly like butterfly feathers, her cherry-like mouth is slightly open, and her glittering and translucent lips are like a layer of honey poured on her lips.
Whenever I see her, I have the urge to kiss her.
"..." Lin Dongjiu simply closed his eyes.
But it was of no use at all. After he closed his eyes, he suddenly felt a soft thing pressing on him.
Although his limbs are stiff and unable to move, it does not mean that he has no sense of touch.
Lin Dongjiu opened his eyes again and found that Mu Ling'er was hugging him with most of his body, and Mu Ling'er's pretty face was only a hair's length away from his, and he could even feel the hot breath she was breathing out.
This incident made Lin Dongjiu dare not take a breath, and simply held his breath for fear of alarming Mu Ling'er.
As time passed, the stiffness in his limbs was gradually relieved. Lin Dongjiu tried to move his arms, and he was pleasantly surprised to find that he could move.
Just when he was about to stand up, Mu Linger's eyelids twitched and then she opened her eyes.
Lin Dongjiu swallowed and spat, too scared to move.
Mu Linger glanced at Lin Dongjiu sleepily, then closed her eyes again, hugged him tighter, and murmured in a low voice: "Junior brother..."
Lin Dongjiu's mood at the moment was like a roller coaster. Just as he was about to quietly break away from Mu Linger's arms, Mu Linger opened her eyes again. She was stunned for a moment, and finally realized that she seemed not to be dreaming.
"Senior sister...good morning..."
"Crack!"
There were slaps and screams.
When Mu Ling'er saw that half of her body was riding on Lin Dongjiu, she was so frightened that she quickly turned away and shrank her head into the quilt, saying incoherently: "Junior brother...you...last night...I..."
Lin Dongjiu covered his face and said without tears: "Senior sister, please listen to my explanation..."
...
After half a stick of incense, laughter came from the room.
With a smile hidden in her eyebrows, Mu Linger touched Lin Dongjiu's face and said distressedly: "Junior brother, does it still hurt?"
Lin Dongjiu took a long breath and said: "It hurts, but it doesn't hurt at all. I just hope that senior sister knows that this is a misunderstanding."
Mu Ling'er's eyes turned into crescent moons, and she said with a smile: "When I first woke up, I thought my junior brother was a gangster, and he actually got into someone else's bed while I was sleeping."
"You did something like this last night. You can't just let it go. You have to be responsible for me in the future..."
The more Mu Ling'er talked, the redder her face became, and her voice became softer and softer. She was the one who was joking at first, but in the end, even she felt a little embarrassed.
Lin Dongjiu couldn't help but smile when he saw this, but he immediately asked worriedly: "Senior sister, what's going on with your body...?"
Mu Linger's eyes flickered slightly, she stroked her hair and said with a smile:
"Junior brother, don't worry. I've had this problem since I was a child. Whenever I sleep until midnight, I feel cold all over my body. When I wake up in the morning, nothing happens. Master also told me that this disease is not serious.
"
Lin Dongjiu felt that something was wrong. Ling'er's symptoms last night were a hundred times more severe than what she said. He felt it firsthand. How could she, a little girl, bear such coldness?
The mysterious sound of the flute last night, the snowflake mark on Ling'er's head that disappeared during the day, and the cold-invading bone disease, what on earth is going on?
There must be some connection between them, but what kind of connection he had, he couldn't figure out.
Lin Dongjiu suspected that all the abnormalities on Mu Ling'er were related to the sound of the flute last night, but this flute sound happened to be the most difficult to investigate, because he felt that the flute player was not from the Luoxia Sect at all, and he did not believe that Luo Xia was the one who played the flute.
Who in Xia Zong can play this flute sound that is like a demonic sound filling the ears.
In fact, Lin Dongjiu hoped that the sound of the flute was caused by someone from the Luoxia Sect, but he was afraid that the flute player had sneaked in from outside. If that was the case, then the flute player would be a bit scary.
The sect-protecting formation outside Luoxia Sect is not a simple one. Each disciple can only enter and exit the sect at will with his or her own identity token, and this identity token is bound to the disciple's essence and blood. There is no such thing as
Possibility of counterfeiting or fraudulent use.
Therefore, outsiders can only enter the Luoxia Sect through approval in advance, and those with high cultivation level can ignore the sect-protecting formation, but this kind of existence is almost on the same level as the Su Sect Master, at least it is an overhaul of the sea expansion realm.
Thinking of this, Lin Dongjiu broke into a cold sweat. If the flute player's cultivation level was really above the sea expansion realm, killing him and Mu Linger would be as easy as squeezing two ants to death.
But the flute player didn't take action against them last night, so what was his intention in coming to Xianyun Peak?
After much thought, he couldn't think of a reason. Lin Dongjiu rubbed his temples. Recently, all kinds of things were flooding into him, making him a little overwhelmed.
Seeing his sad face, Mu Ling'er took his arm and comforted him repeatedly:
"Okay, junior brother, the flute sound you mentioned may be played by one of our disciples. The mark that suddenly appeared on my forehead may be the shadow of something. And I don't feel any physical discomfort. Don't worry anymore.
.”
"Okay then." Lin Dongjiu responded, but in his heart he always felt that Mu Linger was hiding something from him.
However, with Ling'er's character, he would definitely hide something in his heart, and even if he asked, he wouldn't be able to find out.
Lin Dongjiu thought of the naughty man who controlled the insects last night again, and couldn't help but ask: "Senior sister, do you know Jiang Yunli?"
"Are you talking about the little mute?"
Mu Ling'er blinked and replied: "We always played together when we were young. I remember when I first came to the sect, he took good care of me.
However, I haven't seen him again in the past few years. Even if the sect usually has some conferences or competitions, I haven't seen him participating.
Later, I heard that he had been studying poisons in the mountains, and then I never saw him and lost contact. Why did you suddenly mention him?"
"Holy crap! Is this half a childhood sweetheart?"
Lin Dongjiu's heart suddenly hit him, and he laughed dryly: "It's okay, I'm just asking around, what's going on with this little mute? His nickname?"
Lin Dongjiu was also a little curious. It was really difficult for Jiang Yunli to speak and he was really a "little mute".
Mu Ling'er explained: "It turns out that he stuttered a bit and didn't like to talk much, so he was nicknamed Little Mute."
Lin Dongjiu asked again: "Then why does Jiang Yunli raise those poisonous things?"
"Junior brother really doesn't know anything!"
Mu Ling'er smiled and said: "His master is Wu Zang, the second elder of our sect. Elder Wu Zang is the poison master of our sect. He is particularly good at cultivating poisons and controlling poison, killing people invisible. But he is away all year round, and I heard that he is in charge of the sect.
The sect's intelligence agency, so isn't it normal for Jiang Yunli to be addicted to drugs?"
"That's it!" Lin Dongjiu understood clearly. He guessed that the injuries on Jiang Yunli's face were probably caused by poison.
"Let's not mention this for now, senior sister, I have a friend coming over soon, so I'm going back first!"
Lin Dongjiu suddenly thought that Su Ruxue was coming to help in the morning, but he didn't know if he had arrived yet.
Mu Ling'er helped him tidy up his clothes, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make some food for you later."
...
When Lin Dongjiu returned to his residence, he found that Su Ruxue was already waiting in front of the door. She was dressed in plain clothes without makeup, perfectly showing the pure appearance that a girl should have.
Lin Dongjiu didn't expect that she really came, and she came earlier than He Qing, so he couldn't help joking:
"The eldest lady is very positive. Are you anxious to see me?"
"Nonsense! I...I just came here on the way after my morning exercise!" Su Ruxue defended desperately like a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"Okay, okay, just come."
Lin Dongjiu smiled and shook his head. He didn't expect that this young lady had tsundere qualities.
"Wait for He Qing first, and then I will teach you two how to help me make elixirs."
