She traveled to the fantasy world and fought monsters

Chapter 69: She and He Were Alone for a Short Time

"You can't go to the Flower Goddess Festival." Yi Yao flatly refused.

She had just contradicted the Flower God and wanted to attend the Flower God Festival. The Flower God would probably be the first to disagree.

"Then I'll go ask Bingyou." She felt that Yi Yao's words didn't count.

Yi Yao said, "The tomb master has returned to his study. He's been busy looking up ancient medical texts lately. Please be quiet for a while!"

Yi Yao didn't want her to disturb Bingyou.

I don’t know what information Bingyou is looking for recently. She always locks herself in the study and reads various medical books.

"Oh. Got it." Mu Shuiqi nodded obediently.

Yi Yao then went to patrol the Immortal Bamboo Forest without any worries. Chou Chou liked the environment of the Immortal Bamboo Forest, where he could cultivate his body and mind and absorb spiritual energy.

But Yi Yao wouldn't let it in alone, fearing it would steal and eat some weaker spirits. Although it swore not to steal, Yi Yao was still worried.

So, every time, it could only go in and play with Yi Yao.

Mu Shuiqi turned and went to the study.

She stood at the door for a moment. The study was very quiet. Should she knock?

Now that I'm here, I'd rather go in and ask a question than give up.

"What are you doing standing at the door?"

The door suddenly opened from the inside. Bing You, dressed in a purple robe, stood at the door.

"I...I have something to talk to you about." She pursed her lips and smiled.

"Okay, come in." A hint of tenderness flashed in his purple eyes.

She followed him inside.

There were more than a dozen bamboo slips spread out on his desk.

Just as Yi Yao said, he has been busy looking up classics recently.

The words on it were strangely shaped and she couldn't understand any of them.

"What information are you looking for?" She picked up a scroll of bamboo slips.

The more I read, the more headache I get.

"You don't like reading?" He noticed that her brows were getting tighter and tighter.

"I like it." She smiled bitterly, "But your books are too difficult. I can't understand them."

"This is an ancient book from ten thousand years ago. In this day and age, few people can understand it." He comforted her.

"What I mean is, even the new books published by Xuanyu this year, I can't understand them."

"You can't read?"

"I just don't recognize the characters of Xuanyu."

"Do you want to learn?" He approached her and took the bamboo slips from her hand.

The book she picked up happened to be the most obscure medical book.

As he approached, she could smell the fragrance of herbs on him.

This fragrance is not the kind of Chinese herbal medicine fragrance in the mortal world, but a kind of strange aroma.

Because the precious herbs in Xianruo Forest are different from those found elsewhere, their fragrance is naturally unique.

This fragrance is different from the floral scent of the flower god and is not as strong.

The perfect balance of light and dark. Just right.

She looked up at his face and saw him looking down at her.

Both of them were stunned. It was the first time they looked at each other like this, their eyes full of expectations.

What was he expecting? She couldn't guess.

And what she expected was only known to herself. She wanted to enter his heart.

His eyes were soft and deep, more emotional than usual.

I remember the first time I saw him, his eyes were sharp and cold, without any emotion.

"Would you like to learn to read from me?" he asked softly.

"It wouldn't hurt to learn it," she said.

She felt that it didn't matter whether she could read or not in Xuanyu. Since she was not taking the exam here, there was no need for culture.

I just feel really bad about being illiterate here. It might even be a little inconvenient sometimes.

"I can teach you to read." He looked at her with a smile.

His smile was the most alluring. She was stunned for a moment.

"...Okay." She nodded hard.

I almost forgot why I came to see him.

"Bingyou." She found herself becoming much more shy when calling his name.

Can't control it.

The little deer in my heart can no longer be restrained.

"Hmm?" A magnetic voice came out of his throat, "You say."

He looked at her intently.

She mustered up the courage to ask, "Can I go with you to the Flora Festival?"

"You like to appreciate flowers? You girls should all like flowers."

"Yes." She likes flowers, but she doesn't go to the Flower Goddess Festival to appreciate the flowers.

She had other purposes.

Going there using Bingyou's identity might bring him a lot of trouble, so she was also wondering if it would be too selfish to do so?

"You probably don't come here to enjoy the flowers. Do you want to see Emperor He?" He didn't want to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

She looked at him apologetically.

It seemed like nothing could be hidden from him.

He is too wise.

"You are not so naive as to think that you can assassinate Emperor He in Moon Shadow Flower Valley?" He curled his lips into a smile and placed the bamboo slips in his hand on the desk.

Instead, he gently took her wrist, led her to the cushion in front of the desk, and gestured for her to sit down.

The desk is short and small.

Usually Bingyou sits cross-legged on the mat.

Xuanyu seems to be full of furniture like this, in the style of the Han Dynasty.

She knelt down obediently on the mat, and he sat down on the straw mat beside her.

"Do you know how powerful Di He is? Even if he had no guards, you wouldn't be able to kill him if he stood in front of you alone."

He said it calmly.

She had never met Emperor He and didn't know what kind of person he was.

All I know is that he was the murderer of her parents and he deserved to die.

"If you act rashly, you might lose your life in less than a quarter of an hour." He was not trying to scare her.

Just tell her the facts calmly, hoping that she won't let hatred cloud her mind and act rashly.

Her brows furrowed again.

She has been frowning a lot lately, and he couldn't help but frown too.

"Qiqi, don't frown so easily. You're still young, so take your time. With sincerity, there's always time."

He tapped her forehead with his index finger.

Her heart suddenly felt much better. She couldn't help but hold his fingers.

He was stunned. She was holding his index finger so tightly.

"Bingyou, what did you call me just now?" She really could not hold back the frantic beating of her heart!

"Qiqi..." He called softly again.

I heard Chou Chou call her Qiqi and knew that this was her nickname.

"Bingyou, Bingyou!" She couldn't control herself, threw herself into his arms, and hugged his waist tightly.

Tears kept flowing out from the corners of her eyes.

It turns out that in addition to in front of Mengmeng and Chouchou, she can also vent her inner anxiety and depression in front of him.

"Why are you crying?" He was confused and a little flustered.

"Bingyou, thank you for thinking of me so much. I know the road ahead will be difficult, and I don't know how to go on, but at least you care about me. I am so grateful to have met you!"

It was because of this. He couldn't help but laugh and raised his hand to touch her head.

He said, "You are the spiritual root that I raised with my own hands, so of course I have to take care of you."

She suddenly looked up at him: "You are nice to me, just because of this?"

Is she being sentimental again?

A pitiful and beautiful face is reflected in the clear purple eyes.

A slight ripple appeared in his eyes, "Then... what do you hope is the reason?"

"I..." The words came to her lips but she couldn't say them.

How could she say it? If she did, she would lose the initiative. The next time she saw him, he might unconsciously put her in a passive position.

The one who says he loves you first is always the first to lose.

She has never been in love, but she understands this principle.

She doesn't like to lose. She is used to being strong.

Finally, she pulled away from his embrace and stood up.

"I will listen to you and will not assassinate Di He during the Flower God Festival. But can you take me with you? I want to see what kind of person he is."

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."

He knew he had no reason to refuse her.

Because he was willing to be soft on her.

"Three days later, you will come with me to Moon Shadow Flower Valley."
