Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight
Chapter 226: The Sacrifice of the Great Witch of Southern Xinjiang, White Moonlight (8)
Qi Xun did not answer Qi Shu directly, he just said: "I don't care, but I'm used to it."
"When I was a child, I had friends and elders in the village, but many years have passed and they are no longer with us. To me, all of them combined are not as important as my feelings." Qi Shu was very disdainful. "But why are you like this? I think you have been worshipped for too long, and you have become accustomed to being a statue and have deceived yourself into it."
Qi Xun did not argue with Qi Shu anymore. He isolated Qi Shu's consciousness and cut off the connection.
Originally, Qi Shu was the master and Qi Xun was the servant, but when planting the life and death Gu, Qi Shu took on a lot of responsibility so he was always in a weak state, and gradually Qi Xun became the master.
Qi Shu, who was cut off from contact, could only feel helpless and furious, but there was nothing he could do. Sure enough, a few days later, Yue Bai came to resign and said he was going to find Shuang Chi.
"Why are you obsessed with the past?" Qi Xun asked. To Qi Xun, he himself was a person without a past. He truly became a person when he became a great wizard.
Yue Bai smiled and asked, "Great Witch, have you ever thought about the future?"
"In the future? I will always guard the village." Qi Xun replied.
"No, guarding the village was your original trajectory. I'm asking if there is anyone who can break it and tell you about the future, apart from this." Yuebai tilted her head, the silver wind chime hairpin shining in the sun.
"No, I haven't thought about changing anything, and no one has told me to change anything." Qi Xun replied.
"Then let me tell you, Great Wizard, if you are not a Great Wizard but just yourself, what do you want to do?" Yuebai asked.
This question was too unfamiliar to Qi Xun. He had never known it, but he had never thought about it. Yue Bai saw him in a daze and said, "In that case, if you have something you want to do one day, I will help you if I can, as a reward for you teaching me the art of witchcraft."
After that, Yuebai took out two bamboo boats and said, "This one is for you. The other one is for Ashu. Please help me pass it to him."
"Don't you want to say goodbye in person?" Qi Xun asked.
"No need, I'll be back soon." Yuebai said and left.
Qi Shu saw the bamboo boat and said to Qi Xun, "It seems I have to make the kite quickly and give it to her."
When Qi Xun heard this, he asked, "Should I return the gift as well?"
Qi Shu didn't expect Qi Xun to ask him such a question, but he still said, "You can also give me a gift in return."
"But I don't know what to give."
Upon hearing this, both of them fell silent. Qi Xun had indeed never received a gift from anyone, and he had never thought about this kind of issue before, so he didn't know what was normal to give.
But Qi Shu still started to negotiate with him and said, "I haven't had much to do recently, let's discuss it. I'll be the one going out these days. When I finish making the kite, I'll take over your turn. You can think about what to give as a return gift these days. How about that?"
Qi Xun also felt that Qi Shu's words made some sense after hearing them. Qi Shu naturally noticed Qi Xun's hesitation and continued, "You can follow me out to see if there are any new ideas out there. After all, you can't have any good ideas if you stay in your room every day. You should go out more often."
"Okay." Qi Xun agreed to go to sleep, his light gray pupils slowly turning into a thick ink color.
Qi Shu spent two days drawing the blueprints, but it rained during these two days and some of the frames became loose, so he had to go out and select two new replacements. As he was walking on the road, he heard a tinkling sound coming from a distance.
Instinctively going to the woods on the side to avoid encountering them, Qi Shu heard several girls discussing cochineal.
"How are the cochineal insects you raised? The rouge you gave me last time is almost used up." A girl's voice came.
Another voice said in distress: "It's not that easy. I need to try more to see which color looks good. I will give it to you when I find the best color. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Then the two of them started laughing, full of energy, and walked away with a clink of their hands.
"Rouge?" Qi Xun murmured to himself thoughtfully.
Qi Shu also thought it made sense and said, "Women probably can't refuse."
After the two of them discussed it, it was Qi Xun's turn to raise cochineal the next day. This was indeed a new experience for Qi Xun.
The first time was to do something for a person, so raising cochineal insects was not difficult. By the time Qi Shu's kite was cut into colorful pieces of paper and was completely finished, a month had passed.
During this month, Qi Xun checked the condition of the cochineal insects every day. It was finally time to start harvesting. Both of them were very happy. Qi Shu was very moved when he saw the changes in Qi Xun.
He didn't know whether this change was good or bad for him, but secretly he hoped Qi Xun would pay more attention to Yuebai, so that he could more easily convince Qi Xun to let Yuebai go and change the sacrifice.
He didn't want to go that far unless it was absolutely necessary.
It is true that it takes a month for the cochineal to mature, and during this month Yuebai encountered several pursuits. Judging from their strength and methods, they are a bit like the royal family of Nanyu.
"Baihu, am I not their princess? Why does it look so strange?" Yuebai dodged another hidden weapon and ran for her life.
"It's all because your parents are not normal. Don't worry and run." The white tiger in her arms was also feeling uncomfortable, and felt like he was being strangled to death.
Yuebai was holding the kitten transformed from a white tiger, holding the Frost Flower in one hand, and using the hidden sword in the other hand to slow down the killer's steps.
While retreating, at this speed it would take another half a month to return to the village.
And there was no way he could get his whole body back intact. He swung his hidden blade and found that it was no longer useful, but the killer still kept chasing him.
At this time, Bai Hu whispered, "Miss Qi Xun's people are here, you can lie down without worry."
When Yuebai heard Baihu say this, he rolled his eyes and deliberately revealed a flaw, and a sword shot directly at his shoulder.
A group of men in black robes arrived and quickly used their swords to deflect the other swords that were shot at them, protecting Yuebai in the middle. Then one of them came to Yuebai and handed her a pill.
"Girl, this is a medicine that can temporarily stop bleeding and detoxify. The Great Witch sent me to escort you back."
Yuebai could tell from his voice that he was the one who often nodded, took the pill and swallowed it.
The remaining killers over there have been dealt with by the man in black robe. With help, Yuebai's rest of the journey will be much easier.
After making the kite, Qi Shu suddenly realized that a lot of time had passed, so he asked Qi Xun to send some people out to look for him. After all, the person who had lost his memory was thrown outside the village, and there might be enemies outside.
Qi Xun said casually: "I sent people out half a month ago."
