Fragrant willow catkins

After the three of them had enough fun, they all fell asleep on the floor. When they woke up the next day, Yin Congyun and Liu Chenxiang woke up hugging each other, while Yunchuan was busy looking for his sister and had disappeared long ago.

The mountains were covered with snow. Liu Chenxiang liked to watch the snow scene outside, especially standing on the small bridge bored, throwing the snowballs she made into the water, and watching them flow away with the river.

At this time, Yin Congyun would do housework in the yard, but he would always keep a close eye on Liu Chenxiang. Once he felt too cold, he would pull her back into the house to keep warm.

Seeing that Liu Chenxiang enjoyed the snow scene, Yin Congyun cleared a path and took a walk with Liu Chenxiang in the mountains. Because it was winter and the big and small green snakes were hibernating, Yin Congyun dared to take Liu Chenxiang out of the barrier for a walk so unscrupulously, otherwise he was afraid that Liu Chenxiang would use him to prevent the snake from running away.

Why is Yin Congyun still wary of Liu Chenxiang even after getting married?

Because he discovered that Liu Chenxiang was always exuding a yearning for freedom, as if if he didn't hold on tightly, she would return to nature.

He was attracted to Liu Chenxiang because of this, but after the poisoning incident, the only thing that could ensure Liu Chenxiang's safety was this barrier. Only when it was within his control could he protect her.

But coincidentally, although Liu Chenxiang didn't like the barrier, she never said anything about letting her go or complaining about it, and always tried to sneak away on her own.

The two of them appear to be in love on the surface, but are competing secretly.

Look, when Yunchuan was climbing the mountain in the wind and snow, the two of them were lying in the same quilt to keep each other warm.

Liu Chenxiang sighed, "It's so cold today."

Yin Congyun: "Xiang'er, you are afraid of the cold, but you also like to play in the snow."

Liu Chenxiang: "The two are not contradictory."

"Yes yes yes~"

"What is it?!!!" The door was suddenly pushed open, a gust of wind blew, and Liu Chenxiang shrank into the quilt.

Yin Congyun: "Brother Yun, close the door quickly."

Yunchuan got angry when he saw the two men lying there, and closed the door. "I called for a long time but no one came to open the door for me. They are both lying on the bed." He sat down and poured himself some water to drink.

Liu Chenxiang: "Come here for a free meal?"

"Yes." Yunchuan replied quickly.

"Not really." I was almost led astray by you. "Yesterday I received intelligence saying that the whereabouts of the Gathering Spirits Pearl was found. Brother Congyun, do you want to go?"

Liu Chenxiang burrowed into the quilt and said, "No."

Yin Congyun: "Go! Why don't you go?! Xiang'er, if you have this, your poison will be cured!"

Liu Chenxiang didn't want to get involved in this mess. "It's been a while since my poison took effect. It won't be a problem."

But Yin Congyun was in high spirits. "Since I promised Xiang'er, there is no reason for me to regret it. Don't worry, Xiang'er, your husband will definitely be able to get the Gathering Spirit Pearl!"

Yin Congyun got up and tucked the quilt into Liu Chenxiang's bed.

Liu Chenxiang stuck her head out and looked at him with deep eyes, "I don't want to be a widow."

Yunchuan noticed that the atmosphere was not right and said, "No, there's no need to be so anxious. We can leave tomorrow."

Yin Congyun touched Liu Chenxiang's head and comforted her that she would be fine. "It's time for dinner. I'll go cook."

Yunchuan felt a little guilty. Would these two people quarrel because of him?

Seeing Liu Chenxiang retreating back into the quilt, Yin Congyun opened the door and prepared to go downstairs. Yunchuan immediately stood up and said, "I'll go help too!"

At dinner time, Liu Chenxiang's mood returned to normal. She bickered with Yin Congyun. The three of them talked and laughed, and they didn't seem to care about the danger that Yin Congyun might encounter if he went there.

Yunchuan sometimes couldn't figure out whether Liu Chenxiang loved Yin Congyun or not, but Yin Congyun was always willing to give. But since both of them were his friends, Yunchuan couldn't speak in favor of either.

Liu Chenxiang also wanted to stop Yin Congyun, but after spending so much time together, Liu Chenxiang knew that Yin Congyun would keep his word and he would definitely go.

So I didn't want to argue with him over such a small matter.

Look, when I woke up the next day, Yin Congyun and Yunchuan were gone.

It seemed like it snowed all night last night. Looking down from the second floor, the path swept by Yin Congyun was covered with snow again, with two rows of footprints on it.

Liu Chenxiang got up and went downstairs. Yin Congyun had left a large table full of food for her, which should be prepared for her in the next few days. Food is not easy to spoil in winter, so Liu Chenxiang would heat up the food.

After eating, Liu Chenxiang moved a chair and sat at the door in a daze.

Since Yin Congyun was not around, Liu Chenxiang no longer went to the bridge to stare blankly in the snow. She either sat in front of the window or at the door in a daze. As she sat there for a while, her thoughts returned to the past.

In the past, she was used to being casual, often wearing tattered clothes, wandering in the mountains and woods, eating wild fruits, drinking river water, and doing whatever she wanted. Occasionally, when she met a few villagers, she would exchange the local specialties from the mountains for some silver, and then buy a new set of clothes, without being picky about anything.

But now, no one made delicious food for her, so she became picky and didn't want to eat it, and she was too lazy to cook it herself. Yin Congyun really spoiled her.

Now that I think about it, it was obvious that I saw that Yin Congyun was good-looking that day, and wanted to use him to get away, take advantage of him and run away, but I didn't expect to be stuck with him and get myself hurt.

She...hasn't cared so much about someone in a long time...

Thinking of this, Liu Chenxiang leaned on the couch and fell asleep under a blanket.

An unknown amount of time had passed before the bright window suddenly darkened. Liu Chenxiang had a premonition of something, and when she woke up, the room was so dark that it made her feel uneasy.

Feeling something was wrong, Liu Chenxiang quickly came to the yard. It was noon, but it felt like early morning. Looking into the distance, it was obvious that only Yin Congyun was concerned about the bad weather inside the barrier, while everything was normal outside the barrier.

This phenomenon is very bad, the barrier begins to fluctuate...

Something happened to Yin Congyun.

This was Liu Chenxiang’s first reaction.

The barrier was created by Yin Congyun's divine power, and the two coexist.

Liu Chenxiang stood anxiously in the yard. The wind gradually picked up around her, blowing up the snowflakes on the ground and hitting Liu Chenxiang. She did not hide and let the wind blow past her.

She wants to wait for Yin Congyun to come back.

It was unknown how long it had been before Liu Chenxiang saw in the distance that Yunchuan, carrying Yin Congyun on his back, was walking with difficulty in the snow and entering the barrier.

Liu Chenxiang rushed forward and took over Yin Congyun, with a look of nervousness that Yunchuan had never seen before.

The two of them were silent, and tacitly helped Yin Congyun into the bamboo house first. Since they couldn't go up to the second floor, they could only put Yin Congyun on the soft couch on the first floor.

After putting it down, Yunchuan hurriedly healed Yin Congyun. Liu Chenxiang didn't dare to disturb him, so she could only silently hold Yin Congyun's hand tightly, looking at Yin Congyun and Yunchuan at the same time.

There were several wounds on Yin Congyun's body that were visible to the naked eye, and his clothes were soaked in blood.

Under the healing power of God, the wound gradually healed.

Yunchuan finally spoke, "It's all my fault. The intelligence was false and we were ambushed. Zongyun was seriously injured to protect me. I can heal the external injuries, but I can't say about the internal injuries..."

Yunchuan lowered his head, regretting his decision. He should have sent someone to investigate first, but the two were too excited and caught off guard.

As soon as they arrived at the place, they were trapped. They were on their way happily, but they escaped in disgrace. It was only because Yunchuan left behind secret guards to deal with the enemy that they were able to escape.
