Their bright eyes met, and their expectant gazes trembled slightly.

For some reason, Xu An's heart skipped a beat and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Shen Yi only saw a hint of hesitation in her eyes, as if he understood something, and then looked away.

He stood up and smiled as if to ridicule himself, "An...it's okay...I was just joking. Since Xue has finished reading, then I..."

"wood."

A slightly cool hand tightly grasped the man's wrist. He held his breath and looked back.

"Now, with all living things as witnesses, I, Xu An, swear that when I return to Mu'an, I will marry Shen Yi. He will be my legal husband, to whom I will bow down to heaven and earth and pledge my lifelong love. He will also be my beloved, and I will never leave him in this life."

Xu An swore very seriously, his eyes full of determination.

The expression that was unable to conceal her joy was clearly reflected in her pupils.

"If you violate the law, you will be punished by heaven, struck by lightning and your soul will be destroyed, and you will not be able to take the reins..."

As she was swearing a vow, a hot kiss cut off her firm words.

The trembling hands gently held the woman's face, and warm and wet air suddenly dripped onto her nose.

Perhaps he was too worried, tears uncontrollably filled Shen Yi's eyes.

He didn't know what emotion he was feeling, he just felt that the dark night turned into bright day in an instant.

The kiss seemed messy due to some stumbling.

"No, this oath is not valid. I don't acknowledge it."

Shen Yi had a serious and worried look on his face. He had never thought of asking her to swear any oath, even if it was a false one.

"Are you made of water? But I remember that someone clearly has a wood-type spiritual root, so how could there be water drops falling like a patter?"

"Who dropped the water? Maybe the snow melted on your face."

"Well~ maybe~" Xu An smiled happily and pulled the man forward.

The two stopped at the edge of the river. "The oath I made just now is absolutely true! In this life, I will fight with Shen Yi until death, and grow old together! If I break my promise, I will eat candied fruit and it will be bitter! Eat green jade rolls and they will be sour! Eat roasted sweet potatoes and they will be raw!"

Xu An looked sideways with a smile, his eyes full of love enveloping her, his greedy and passionate eyes ignited with strong flames.

The flying snow in the sky turned into snow butterflies with spread wings. The leisurely spirit insects floated in the air, looking at the two people hugging each other tightly with envy.

……

As the sky brightened, voices of conversation could be heard outside the carriage.

"This monster's fur is really shiny, and it looks pretty good."

"It's a pity that its abdomen was injured, otherwise I could peel off its skin and make a cloak for Zhizhi."

Xu An lifted the curtain and looked, only to see a black fox held tightly in Qing Yeli's hand.

There was a long scar on the monster's belly, and drops of blood kept oozing out and falling on the ground, spreading out.

It has obsidian eyes, which are extremely rare, but seem... somewhat like human eyes.

When her gaze met its, the trembling pupils became more and more familiar.

Suddenly, Xu An's heart was shocked.

"Dad Qing, I like this fox demon, can you let me take a look at it?"

"Zhizhi, what are you talking about? This monster was originally captured by Qingdie for your entertainment. Wait, Qingdie will pull out its fox fangs first to prevent it from hurting you."

Qing Yeli raised his hand to cast a spell, Xu An quickly jumped off the carriage and snatched the fox away, "No need, Qing Dad, I like him the way he is now. He will be ugly if his teeth are pulled out. Let me check his injuries first."

"As long as Zhizhi likes it, we'll continue our journey."

The carriage began to shake slightly, and the team moved forward.

"Yun Xuan? Are you Yun Xuan?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the monster suddenly transformed back into human form in front of her eyes.

"cough…"

Deep red blood flowed out of the man's mouth. He leaned weakly against Xu An's shoulder, "Master..."

"How did you end up in my father Qing's hands? And why are you so badly injured?"

The blood soaked the black shirt, making it extremely wet and cold. Xu An frantically searched for medicine.

She carefully unbuttoned the shirt and gently pulled open his collar.

As his clothes fell off, some mud was embedded in the deep bloodstains on his abdomen, and the blood had dyed his waist red.

"Master... I found a medicinal herb... This is the ginseng phosphorus flower, which is rare in the world and usually found in the caves of yellow snake beasts. It just so happened that, cough, cough... I encountered this beast last night, so I went to its cave and picked a plant."

Looking up, Bei Shuyunxuan's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He spread his hands and saw bloodstains on the shining grass leaves.

Xu An frowned, tore off a piece of her skirt, dipped some medicine on it to treat the wound, and gently applied the medicine powder with her other hand.

She said distressedly: "You stupid fox demon, what kind of medicinal herbs are worth such serious injuries?"

The cold fingers fell on the man's wound, stroked it again and again, taking away the pain.

Bei Shuyunxuan lowered his eyes and watched as Xu An applied medicine to the wound under his closely following gaze. She leaned slightly closer and exhaled softly, "Besides this wound, where else are you injured?"

A trace of warm air caressed the man's wound, but it felt like it was blowing into his heart.

"No, no."

Xu An looked up, but saw his embarrassed expression.

She chuckled and said, "Are you... shy?"

"No, no."

His stuttering appearance made Xu An couldn't help laughing, "You look so stupid with your stuttering appearance, you really look like Ze An."

"..."

Just after he finished speaking, Bei Shu Yunxuan's expression suddenly became stiff, and his pale face seemed to turn a little blue.

He lowered his head in disgust, trying to hide the sinister look in his eyes.

Xu An didn't notice his subtle expression. She tidied up his clothes for him and then asked, "Why did you go looking for this medicine? What's wrong with your injury?"

"That day, Master took Perilla away. After he came back, he wrote several prescriptions for curing the poison of Heartbreak Flower. I happened to see that several herbs are the most poisonous in the world. Master once said that if there is no antidote, then you should fight poison with poison. And it just so happened that I ran into the yellow snake beast last night. I suddenly remembered that the ginseng phosphorus flower is a stronger poison than the heartbreak flower, so maybe I can help Master."

"But the monster often lives in a deep cave surrounded by poisonous toad thorn trees. I didn't pay attention to my feet and fell down. Fortunately, I cast a spell in time to avoid the poisonous trees, but was scratched by a spider beast foraging in the cave wall. Later, I fought with a yellow snake and was seriously injured. It was Senior Qing who picked me up."

Bei Shuyunxuan spoke in detail, every inch of his eyes fixed on the face of the person on the opposite side.

Although he described it in great detail, Xu An felt something was wrong.

She was lost in thought, feeling a little strange about what he said.

How could Qi Shichuan let other people see the prescription? His identity was fake, so he would never reveal the handwriting.

Unless Yun Xuan intentionally stole the prescription...his mind must not be as simple as it seems.
