Chapter 33 Fuzzy Hurts Me
I think "Yun Hua" is a bit strange, but it's not just Yuan Zhiqing.
As the smell of fried fish dissipated, Xia Xiyue's eyes turned slightly and fell on Yun Hua, feeling vaguely that something was wrong.
Xia Xiyue: "..." Why does this person smell like wood?Smells a lot like the dryad I've seen in the Upper Realm before.
Could it be that there are ghosts in this small world?I haven't heard of it...
Yun Hua looked over suddenly: "What's wrong?"
"!" Xia Xiyue was taken aback, she thought she was looking very subtly, but she didn't expect this tree spirit to be so sensitive.
But he was wearing a gauze hat, Yun Hua actually couldn't see her line of sight, so it was probably just a wild guess.
Xia Xiyue touched the scarf on the bamboo hat and was shocked.
She cleared her throat and said calmly, "It's okay."
Then he looked away guiltily.
Looking at the sun, it was almost time to set off, and everyone was there.Xia Xiyue turned her head and glanced at the sect, and decided not to delay any longer, she stood up with her sword: "Let's go."
...
After a group of people left.
In the deep forest of Angelica Peak.
A brightly colored bird flew past the treetops.It kept circling around the clearing among the trees, its black eyes always fixed on a mass of silvery light on the ground.
After a while, the colorful bird finally couldn't bear the temptation, flapped its wings, and swooped over resolutely: such a dazzling object, moved back to the nest, will definitely attract the most beautiful female bird in a hundred miles around!
It stretched out its claws to hook the group of silver people, and tried to flap its wings, trying to take off.
However, the weight of human beings is far beyond its imagination.After working hard for a long time, the colorful bird had to loosen its claws, and the person who was pulled up a little fell back to the ground with a plop.
Unwillingly, it bounced around for a long time, pecking here and there, and finally unintentionally pulled it to the hair crown.
Surprised to find that this shiny silver object can be disassembled and is very light, the colorful bird picked it up in its mouth with satisfaction, and returned to the nest happily, regardless of the immovable thing on the ground.
The forest returned to silence.
After an unknown amount of time, the people on the ground frowned, their eyelashes slowly raised, and gradually regained consciousness under the sunlight at noon.
Yun Hua supported the ground and sat up.
Looking at the peaceful scene around him, he was a little dazed for a while.
After a while, he vaguely remembered that not long ago, when he returned to Qizong to prepare travel equipment, he accidentally saw an extremely rare velvet beast on the way.
The little beast was only the size of a palm, and its snow-white fur was soft and fluffy.It was soft and cute when it was young, but it can transform into an extremely heroic beast when it grows up. It is charming and handsome. When Yun Hua caught a glimpse of it, the flying sword under his feet couldn't move anymore.
At that time, he thought in his heart: it would not take too long to catch up with a little animal to adopt.So he turned around and followed.
After escaping the illusion of the edelweiss a few times, Yun Hua landed lightly, stretched out his hand towards the little fur ball huddled in the grass, and then...
He didn't know what happened next.
The chaotic memory gave Yun Hua a headache.He pressed his forehead, and before he could think about it further, he suddenly felt something brushing against his calf.
As soon as he lowered his head, he saw that the edelweiss did not run away, but looked at him with big tearful eyes, and clung to his leg as if seeking support.Looking at each other, Yun Hua couldn't help stretching out his hand and rubbing its head.
When you touch it, the wonderful touch makes you feel ecstatic.
At the same time, the spell printed on the top of the velvet beast's head was triggered again, and it accurately penetrated into Yun Hua's body.The eyes of the young man who had just woken up became dazed again.His body swayed, but finally he couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground with a snap.
Maybe it was the second time he was hit, and he had some resistance.Before losing consciousness, Yun Hua recalled the feeling just now, her thin lips moved, and finally realized where she fell.
"..." This hair...is poisonous!!
...
the other side.
The chief culprit who harmed the disciples of the sect, despite Yun Hua's appearance, was mixed in the traveling team heading for the Wufang Secret Realm, and had already traveled a long way.
Xia Xiyue didn't know what happened to the unlucky head disciple of Tool Peak next door, and at the moment, she actually didn't have the energy to think about other things.
——She used to nest in the Yinxian sect all year round, soak in the spiritual spring, drink a potion of elixir, and hide from the sun all day long. Even though the fire poison in her body was getting more and more, she didn't feel too uncomfortable.
But now as soon as they went out, the sun was shining brightly in the wilderness, and a group of people were walking with swords in midair.Even with the shark gauze covering her, Xia Xiyue gradually felt that the environment had become difficult.
She took out the fire-dispelling liquid that she had stockpiled earlier, took a few sips, looked down at the empty bottle, and found that, as Ling Chen said, the effect of this medicine was becoming less and less obvious.
Fortunately, apart from her, there were many other mediocre disciples traveling this time.
Xia Xiyue put away the elixir as if nothing had happened, and glanced around from time to time.
When she finally found that some disciples showed tired expressions one after another, and the flying swords under her feet became unstable, her eyes lit up, and she said thoughtfully, "The next town is to rest."
The disciples of Medicine Peak, who were not active in all four limbs, immediately lifted their spirits when they heard this.
Xia Xiyue also lifted her spirits, silently breathed a sigh of relief, and expressed the same emotion as her disciples: can finally rest.
...
It happened to be evening when it landed.
A group of people rested overnight and planned to set off the next day.
Xia Xiyue is somewhat interested in the market.In the small world in the past, although there were similar towns, she always hurriedly finished her tasks and left. She was usually only in the deep mountains and wild forests, dealing with various monks, and had no time to visit.
So on the next day, Xia Xiyue slipped out the door before the meeting time, looking at all kinds of gadgets in the market.
There are many novel foods and toys in the market, all of which are eye-catching.
But looking at it, Xia Xiyue's eyes finally fell on a bamboo stall.
It seemed to be a stall selling herbal tea. Freshly cut emerald green bamboo tubes were washed and placed on a bamboo stand, and beside it was a load of light-colored sweet tea.Every time someone asks for tea, the stall owner will take a spoonful and pour it into the bamboo tube, take it off and pass it to the customer. It is not yet known how the taste will be, but the emerald green bamboo tube is very cool at first glance.
After watching for a while, Xia Xiyue looked at the medicine bottle in her hand, and gradually felt that these precious spirit liquids were no longer fragrant.
After hesitating for a moment, she threw the medicine bottle into the natal space, and walked to the booth as if nothing had happened, planning to buy some to try.
The stall owner found out that there were customers again, and greeted them warmly.
However, when he saw the spirit stone that Xia Xiyue handed over, he was taken aback for a moment.
The stall owner cupped his hands in embarrassment: "Immortal, we don't accept this kind of stone."
In this small town, there are not many cultivation sects nearby, and the circulation of spirit stones is not easy.Moreover, many bloody precedents showed that once this kind of thing came into their hands, it might attract evil cultivators to covet it.
After finishing speaking, the stall owner took a look at Xia Xiyue.Although she couldn't see her face clearly because of the tulle, she felt like a petite girl.He guessed that this was another young monk who lacked common sense, so he bent his fingers, formed a circle, and patiently made a copper coin, and said euphemistically, "This is what we want."
The bamboo hat on the opposite side moved, as if a girl was nodding in understanding.
The stall owner couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her take back the spirit stone and searched in her sleeve instead: It seems that this fairy's elder is quite reliable and knows to teach her to carry copper coins when going out.Maybe it was just that she got used to giving the spirit stones, so she took the spirit stones by mistake, but now that she reminded her, she came back to her senses.
I am gratifiedly waiting for the copper plate to be collected.At this moment, Xia Xiyue reached out her hand again.
The spirit stone in her palm disappeared, and turned into a white pill—this pill was indeed big and round, exactly the same as the circle that the stall owner had drawn with two fingers just now.
Stall owner: "..."
Xia Xiyue watched the stall owner's face change, and was taken aback for a moment, vaguely aware that she had guessed wrong.
At this time, a person came over to the side.
Yuan Zhiqing bought a mortal folding fan from nowhere, and on the fan there were four big characters that were completely different from his own—a whole body of righteousness.
He shook the "righteousness", raised the fan to cover his face, and whispered to Xia Xiyue: "Pillions are like spirit stones, mortals can't bear them, and if they eat them, they will explode and die - of course, ifIf he survives, then the junior sister will pick up a talent with spiritual roots, but he is a bit older."
Xia Xiyue looked at his fan with complicated eyes: "..." Who are you kidding, this is a detoxification elixir, not a spiritual elixir for cultivation.The untrained cooks in the outer gate often come to medicine peak to stock up some to prevent being bitten when dealing with poisonous snakes.Even if you are not poisoned, you can still eat it as a ball to strengthen your body.
However, she glanced at the stall owner, and seeing the other person's expression, she could only sigh in her heart: the stall owner obviously doesn't know how to distinguish pills.And maybe it was because he had heard of what Yuan Zhiqing said about "exploding and dying", so he rejected all pills equally.She had to put away the medicine again.
Yuan Zhiqing was wearing a copper plate.
But he didn't intend to take it out, he just stood by and watched with interest, wanting to see how Xia Xiyue planned to get that cup of tea.
Unexpectedly, after Xia Xiyue put away the elixir, she didn't try again, looked at the bamboo tubes, turned her head and left.
"..."
The fun that Yuan Zhiqing wanted to watch was gone.
He flicked the fan back and forth in his hand.After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and followed Xia Xiyue, and said with a smile, "Why don't I help you find a way?"
It was very hot, and Xia Xiyue was also sunburned, so she waved her hand and didn't bother to talk to him.
She remembered that there was a bamboo forest on the outskirts of the city.Anyway, it doesn't matter whether the tea is tea or not, the important thing is to drink it in a bamboo tube, which looks special.
So Xia Xiyue thought: Why don't you chop some bamboo and stuff it into your natal space, and if you have time, you can cut a piece out and drink it... But first, you have to wait for Yuan Zhiqing to leave.Otherwise, it would be too cheap to cut bamboo in front of him.
Thinking about it, Xia Xiyue couldn't help but feel a little worried: How could I bring my own money when I went out before?When I was in the Upper Realm, I went to the trade fair to hang out, and if I wanted something, I would pat Nan Xian with it. As long as it wasn't too outrageous, he would naturally help pay the bill.In comparison, Xia Xiyue felt that she had made progress by remembering to bring the spirit stone with her when she went out this time.
Is it reasonable for a caretaker to disappear suddenly, leaving her at home and going out to work to find him?
It doesn't make sense at all.When the person is fished out, he must be kicked a few times to relieve his anger.
Xia Xiyue: "..." Speaking of which, that stray cat obviously also used to hang around their house from time to time, but this time when something happened to Nan Xian, it didn't come either - it must have discovered that there was no Nan XianReiki rubbed off, and went to find another place.It's better to have a conscience when you come to Xiaohuamao every few years.
Xia Xiyue let out a heavy breath, thinking of Nan Xian who was lying dead in the samsara division, and thinking of the empty mansion, silently clenched her small fists.
...
Yuan Zhiqing walked behind her, looking at the taciturn medicine peak leader in front of her, obviously unable to see through the many thoughts behind her quiet appearance.
Seeing that Xia Xiyue was silent now, he suddenly realized something, looked down at the folding fan in his hand, and felt bad.
——The "Yuan Zhiqing" in Yinxian sect should be an image of a good person who is friendly to his classmates. Seeing that the junior sister did not bring a copper coin, it is normal to help pay for it, unless he did not bring it himself.
Originally, he wanted to pretend to be the latter, but at this moment, Yuan Zhiqing suddenly remembered: the fan in his hand revealed that he actually had money with him.
Yuan Zhiqing: "..." When he bought the folding fan just now, he really didn't think much about it, he just thought the inscription on the fan was very interesting, so he bought it.
As soon as he finished shopping, he saw Xia Xiyue struggling in front of a booth in the distance, so he thought it was fun again, so he casually approached him to strike up a conversation.
But now, the consequences of acting casually appeared - he always felt that Xia Xiyue was angry.
... Could it be that he was angry with him for watching the fun?
Yuan Zhiqing touched the folding fan in silence: It would be bad if Xia Xiyue kept ignoring him.He still has something to say... Tsk, really shouldn't have teased him just now.
