Water Reflects Peach Blossoms

Jiang Ruan has a high fever.

In the middle of the night, Zheyan personally prepared and boiled the medicine, soaked a soft cloth in cold water, and placed it on her fair and plump forehead to cool it down.

After feeding the medicine, Zheyan once again took off the cloth towel that was heated by Jiang Ruan's body temperature, washed it in cold water for a few times, wrung out the water, and gently placed it on her forehead.

The process of feeding the medicine went smoothly.

Jiang Ruan was sick and mumbling, but she did not do anything extreme. Zhe Yan, who was well-behaved and obedient and thought that he would take great effort to take care of her, was surprised at how well she took care of her.

But she kept calling Cen Sheng's name, which annoyed him.

After taking care of her all night, near dawn, Zheyan used the back of his hand to feel the temperature of Jiang Ruan's forehead again. After the back of his hand touched the normal body temperature, he withdrew his hand, and his eyes looked at her with a little gentler unconsciously.

The sun is rising.

The woman lying on the couch had her eyelashes trembling slightly, and she opened her eyes, revealing a pair of clear eyes that were still a little hazy from just waking up.

Jiang Ruan felt that it was particularly difficult to open his eyelids after waking up this time. He blinked his eyes and regained his senses. Only then did he realize that he was sweating all over.

The clothes under the quilt stuck to her body, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Jiang Ruan stood up. Her ankle still hurt, but not as much as it had yesterday.

She pushed open the door and saw that the sky outside was bright and sunny. The rising sun illuminated the peach blossoms in front of her, making them beautiful without being gaudy.

"Chirp."

On the branch, the fiery red bird that led her here yesterday stood on the branch and called out to her twice.

The bird is dressed in fiery red, and the branch it is standing on is full of peach blossoms. The red in the pink is very beautiful, and makes the bird even more adorable.

Jiang Ruan returned to the room.

Just when Zheyan was wondering why she didn't come over, he saw Jiang Ruan holding a small bowl and walking to the railing to ask him to come over.

Zheyan flew over and looked down - the bowl contained the rice that he had transformed into the jar for Jiang Ruan to use to fill his stomach.

"Are you hungry?" Jiang Ruan said softly, "Eat quickly."

Zhe Yan: “…”

When he was just born, he was able to transform into a human form. His food, clothing and daily necessities were all elegant and refined, but he did not have the habit of eating raw rice like unintelligent birds.

But Jiang Ruan was still considerate. She washed the rice in the bowl.

Seeing that the bird was staring at the rice in the bowl and not eating it, Jiang Ruan wondered, "Don't you like it?"

Zheyan sighed inwardly, bent down, lowered his head and took a few bites from the bowl.

He sighed as he ate. Although he had become much calmer in recent years, he was not such a soft-hearted person after all. How could it be... had he really met his nemesis?

Seeing the bird eating happily with its head down, Jiang Ruan went back to the room to get some water to wash up.

She wetted her cloth with water and wiped her sticky body, then tied up her loose hair with a wooden hairpin before making breakfast for herself.

Breakfast was porridge made from rice. She hadn't eaten anything since last night, not to mention she had a high fever at night which she didn't know about. Jiang Ruan ate a lot for this meal and only felt full after drinking three big bowls of porridge.

After dinner, she decided to go out and explore the surrounding terrain so as to prepare to leave Taolin and go to Jian'an City after her foot injury healed.

Seeing Jiang Ruan take a bamboo pole and go out to the kitchen to see if there was any food left, Zheyan quickly flapped his wings to follow.

He followed Jiang Ruan and saw Jiang Ruan wandering aimlessly in the peach forest, making marks on the peach trees from time to time. When he was tired, he used a bamboo pole as a crutch to support his body and continue walking.

His fair face flushed due to the exhaustion of physical strength. Jiang Ruan walked for a long time but still couldn't get out of the peach forest. He was afraid that he would get lost, so he thought of exploring here first.

She walked over to a peach tree and sat down, wiping the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.

Seeing the little bird land on the raised root of the peach tree next to her, she smiled and asked it, "How did you catch up with me?"

Zheyan could see that even though Jiang Ruan was so tired, she was still happy after leaving the Heavenly Palace.

He tilted his head and chirped a few times casually.

What if I don't follow and get disturbed by the monsters practicing in the Ten-Mile Peach Forest?

Jiang Ruan found it interesting: "You are really beautiful, good-looking, with a nice voice, and a kind and warm heart."

The praise is quite acceptable.

Zheyan listened and accepted the compliment without any shame.

Jiang Ruan sat for a while, watching the pink petals floating down in front of her. She picked up a slender blade of grass from the ground, held it to her lips, and blew out a melodious note.

It was just an ordinary melody, not played very well.

As the only listener, Zheyan, who is proficient in music, listened quietly and attentively, his dark eyes fixed on Jiang Ruan's fair and beautiful face with her eyes closed.

He was thinking, but it seemed as if he was thinking of nothing.

When he came back to his senses, the song had already ended, and Jiang Ruan was talking to him in a voice as sweet as a spring stream.

She held the grass leaves in her hand, feeling rather nostalgic. "It was Cen Sheng who taught me how to play music with grass leaves. I wonder how he is doing now?"

Zheyan: At least he’s not dead.

Zheyan looked at her hesitant and young girl, thinking about how Donghua lived under Cen Sheng's shadow all day long. Just thinking about it made him feel strange that the venomous and stingy stone could suppress his temper and not do anything to Jiang Ruan even though he knew that he had Cen Sheng as his white moonlight. He also thought that his patient face must be very funny.

Zheyan never wanted to hear Cen Sheng's name again in his life after hearing Jiang Ruan mention Cen Sheng all the time.

The red bird sighed in a very human way: Never mind, once your leg injury is healed I will follow you to the human world and end this earthly relationship.

A day in heaven is one year on earth.

Although the war between the Heaven Realm and the Winged Clan is imminent, the one leading the troops is still his sworn brother and good friend Mo Yuan.

Fortunately, there are still a few days left. He will be able to finish his work in the mortal world in a few months by following Jiang Ruan. Here, it will only take less than half a day. If anything happens, he will be able to make it in time.

He thought so in his heart, but Zheyan himself knew that he had killed too many people in the past, so he had to seal his life-saving magic weapon, the Fuxi Qin, in order to successfully suppress the evil in his body.

Even if he wanted to fight in the upcoming war, he would probably be powerless.

If killing once again arouses the evil in his body, I am afraid he will become a monster more difficult to deal with than Qing Cang.

Outside the Ten-mile Peach Grove.

Bai Zhen, who came to Zheyan to drink, was stopped by the barrier as soon as he reached the outside of the peach forest.

You have to know that he has known for tens of thousands of years since he was born that there is a powerful formation barrier in the Ten-Mile Peach Forest, but this is the first time he has seen this barrier with his own eyes.

The Lord Bai Zhen, with his cold temperament and peerless appearance, was strange.

Why would Zheyan open the barrier for no reason?

Realizing that Bai Zhen existed outside the barrier, Zheyan sent him a message.

【Retreat】

The short two words made Bai Zhen immediately lose interest in investigating. He thought about the war that was about to happen in the near future. Although Qingqiu was in a neutral attitude, Xiaowu was Mo Yuan's disciple after all.

Zheyan's retreat may have given him some insight and he is preparing for the war.

Zheyan activated his divine power to "watch" Bai Zhen leave, then retracted his divine power and looked at Jiang Ruan, who was staring at the grass leaf in his hand in a trance.

He suddenly started, picked up the grass leaves and flew away.

Hearing Jiang Ruan's call from behind, he landed on a branch, looked back at her pretty face that had regained its vitality, flapped his wings again, and flew back and forth to bring her home.
