Uncle Nine, where are you running to?

Only after witnessing the complete destruction of the zombies did Lin Jiu breathe a sigh of relief.

As soon as he stood up and looked back, he saw that the clay monkey was walking back with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the basket in his hand was shaking so much that it was about to hit the sky.

It’s over.

She seems really angry!

"Hehehe! Brother, you're in for it this time~~ I'm going back first!"

Simu patted Lin Jiu's shoulder with a gloating look and walked back with a smirk on his face.

Lin Jiu: "Junior brother, you broke a lot of furniture in Ikkiu's house, why don't you help him clean it up?!"

Simu was choked and quickly took two steps forward to argue:

"Brother, you can't do this. Look, this is just personal revenge! I won't go."

Lin Jiu turned around and glanced at him coldly: "Are you going or not?"

Simu felt a chill on his neck: "...Let's go!"

Ikkiu laughed cheerfully: "Then I'll trouble you, fellow Taoist."

After fighting with him for so many years, Ikkiu finally saw him defeated. The old fox was so happy.

……

Lin Jiu quickly followed Jingzhi.

"……sorry."

Jingzhi glanced at him, her lips curled up, "Deduct one point!"

Lin Jiu was anxious. What time was it now?

"Shall I wipe it for you?"

Jingzhi's eyes rolled, and she suddenly turned around, hugged him and rubbed him, then let go.

Seeing that he was as covered in mud as she was, Jingzhi said with a smile: "Okay, I won't be angry anymore. I'll give you a cent back."

Lin Jiu: "..."

Never mind, I did it all myself.

She finally held his hand, which she had been avoiding.

As soon as he held it, Jingzhi couldn't help but let out a soft hiss.

Lin Jiu gently held her left hand and looked at it carefully. The wound was still bleeding slightly, and the surrounding flesh was pinched by her herself, which made her skin turn outwards in a hideous manner. It made him feel very distressed.

"Don't do this anymore. There must be other ways."

Jingzhi: "I was worried about you. The zombie's claws almost caught you just now. I didn't think too much about it."

He looked disapproving, with the corners of his mouth drooping a little. He took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and gently wrapped it around her index finger.

"Leave it like this for now, I'll bandage you when I get back."

"it is good."

……

As soon as the two returned to Simu's house, they found that Qiu Sheng was the only one sitting at the table in the living room, leaning on his hands and looking outside.

There was a huge fire burning at the gate of the yard.

Seeing them coming back, Qiu Sheng quickly stood up and went to greet them.

"How are you guys, are you hurt?"

Jingzhi raised her index finger.

Qiu Sheng uttered an "ah" and said with some embarrassment:

"What should I do? There's not much flesh on my fingers. How about chopping them off?"

Lin Jiu: "..."

Jingzhi tutted, couldn't help rolling her eyes, and said, "What the hell, I made it myself."

Qiu Sheng's eyes widened in shock: "You cut me again?"

Lin Jiu frowned and wanted to pick up Jingzhi's hands to take a closer look, but unexpectedly Jingzhi hid his left hand behind his back.

He turned to Qiu Sheng and asked, "What do you mean by 'again'? Tell the truth!"

Qiu Sheng took two steps back, laughed, said, "I'll boil some water for you to take a bath!" and ran away.

Chizuru in the bathtub spoke.

"Brother, Sister-in-law used her blood to detoxify us. She is the lifesaver of the young prince and me. Please don't..."

Qianhe was halfway through his words when he saw the distressed look on his senior brother's face and realized that he was being too sentimental. He thought Lin Jiu would attack Jingzhi.

Lin Jiu was dirty and didn't sit on the chair. He walked straight to the bathtub and checked Qianhe's injuries.

"I'm fine, I just lost a lot of blood. Junior brother, you should stay here with Simu and recuperate. He has plenty of space here anyway."

Chizuru hesitated, "What about zombies?"

Jingzhi: "Even if it's destroyed... you're not still thinking of sending it back to Beijing, are you?"

Qianzuru shook her head and just glanced back at the young prince who was fast asleep on a makeshift bed against the wall.

Jingzhi: "Are you worried about him?"

Chizuru turned around, nodded and said:

"I was entrusted by him to transport his father back to Beijing for burial. Now that it's like this... how can I explain this to him?"

Qianhe couldn't help but tear up when he thought of his little apprentice Xiaobei who died tragically.

This trip is really not worth it.

Jingzhi didn't know how to persuade him. The atmosphere was so tense that she abruptly changed the subject:

"Where are your disciples? Jiale and Jingjing are missing too. And what about Minister Wu? How is he?"

Chizuru raised her chin slightly towards the house next door:

"Luckily you found him in time. After draining his blood and bandaging his wound, he followed my three apprentices to help clean up the house next door. Jiale followed Jingjing as well."

Jingzhi nodded and muttered softly:

"Mother is mother, but she is quite a good person."

Qianhe turned to Lin Jiu, "Brother, my little disciple, you..."

Lin Jiu sighed and patted his shoulder gently:

"Qiu Sheng and I will help him collect his body later and arrange a good place for burial as soon as possible."

Chizuru nodded with a look of self-blame on her face.

The person was dead, and Lin Jiu didn't know how to persuade him. Seeing Qiu Sheng coming in, he called Qiu Sheng and went together to collect Xiao Bei's body.

Seeing that everyone had left, Jingzhi had no choice but to go take a shower first.

……

When everything was settled, she lay back in her bed, feeling a little sleepy, when Lin Jiucai came in from outside, all steamy, holding a tray.

"Don't sleep yet. Stretch out your hand and I'll bandage it for you before you go back to sleep."

As soon as her nerves relaxed, Jingzhi, who had been running for a long time, felt sore all over that she didn't even want to get up. She stretched out her hands from the quilt, raised her two index fingers, and said softly:

"Come here, I'm so tired and don't want to get up."

"..."

Lin Jiu felt distressed and helpless, so he had to carry the tray and sit next to her.

While applying the medicine, feeling his gentle movements, Jingzhi raised her eyes and looked straight at his firm chin, and suddenly said:

"Ajiu, do you still want to kiss me? After bandaging, kiss me and then go to sleep?"

Lin Jiu paused and said unhappily:

"I'm not that beastly. After you're done bandaging, go to bed early. You just ran for so long, aren't you tired?"

"zz ZZ..."

Looking at Jingzhi, who was so tired that she lost consciousness, but still obediently raised her two index fingers to bandage him, Lin Jiu suddenly felt pity in his heart.

He bandaged the wound more and more carefully, for fear of hurting the wound and waking her up.

After wrapping it, he pushed the tray toward the wall and then slowly lay back down in his own bed.

Seeing that she was still raising two fingers unconsciously, Lin Jiu laughed dumbly, reached out and gently pressed down her fingers, tucked the quilt for her, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Jiu wanted to close his eyes, but he was a little unwilling. However, kissing her while she was sleeping was really too much.

Lin Jiu settled for the next best thing and lifted up a strand of half-wet hair on her pillow and pecked it gently.

The hair was smooth and slightly cool, and Lin Jiu couldn't let it go. He gently twisted it a few times and then fell asleep holding her hair.

……

The next day, Jingzhi, who had a good sleep, felt a pain on the left side of her scalp as soon as she got up.

She looked down and saw that the culprit was still grabbing her hair and refused to let go.

Stinky Ah Jiu.

When she is awake, she always says no and no, but when she is asleep, she always does some little things. It's really annoying.

Looking at Lin Jiu sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but laugh.

Hey~ She wants to give someone a taste of his own medicine.

Jingzhi quietly moved over, leaned over, and stared at his sleeping face with her big dark eyes.

Well, there is a small mole near the end of Jiu’s eyebrow.

Jingzhi looked at the mole twice, then moved her gaze away, slowly moving it to his motionless eyelids.

To be honest, she didn't believe that he was still awake.

The last time she got up to go to the bathroom, her movements were much lighter than when she got up just now.

So is he pretending to be asleep now?

Little guy, see if she won’t teach him a lesson.

I heard that if you put your fingers close to the area between your eyebrows, you will feel a sense of pressure.

Here comes the chance to give it a try!

So she quietly stretched out her finger and moved closer to his brow little by little.

Seeing that the gauze on his fingertips was about to touch his skin, Lin Jiu didn't react at all, and Jingzhi was a little confused.

Could it be that she guessed wrong?

He didn't wake up?

Her eyes suddenly fell on his slightly red earlobe, and Jingzhi exclaimed, "Wow!"

This person is really patient.

She couldn't believe it.

Lin Jiu had actually woken up early in the morning. When he was secretly touching her hair, she suddenly woke up. Before he could let go, she stood up.

After hearing her cry of pain, he felt guilty and pretended to be asleep.

At this moment, despite being tested by Jing, he remained as still as a mountain.

The endurance of those who practice Taoism is many times greater than that of ordinary people.

Just when he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and inhaled again, Lin Jiu suddenly smelled her sweet scent, which gently brushed against his face.

Lin Jiu's other hand, which was not holding his hair, immediately clenched the quilt in his hand.

How close is she?!

What on earth does she want to do?

Lin Jiu's expression remained unchanged, but his heartbeat became increasingly violent.

At this moment, a slender hand suddenly pressed gently on his heart, accompanied by her laughter, a teasing remark suddenly came into his ears:

"Ajiu, your weakness is me."

She added: "I can hear your heartbeat."

"..."

Lin Jiu remained expressionless, without even a hint of expression, but his ears were getting redder and redder, making Jingzhi feel that his ears were his true body.

She moved her head away and patted his arm gently, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Get up. We have a lot to do today. Qianhe and that little prince haven't changed their dressings yet. We should take over Qiu Sheng's shift."

Lin Jiu's voice was a little hoarse, "Wait a minute."

"What are you waiting for?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a quilt covered her.

Outside the bed, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a big hand, which gradually slid up and tightly grasped her five fingers.

It was dark under the quilt, but Jingzhi could feel the stiffness of his body and the slowly rising temperature.

"Ajiu? My hand is hurting from your grip."

Lin Jiu quickly loosened his grip, but still did not let go of her hand.

He rested his elbows on either side of her body, his head against hers, his hot breath spraying on her face bit by bit, but he couldn't say a word for a long time and couldn't make any "excessive" movements.

"Ajiu? You should kiss me."

At least say a word.

She was almost suffocating with her head covered in the quilt.

Lin Jiu: He is almost suffocating. This little nagging girl just teases him all day long.

"Jingzhi... I am a man, you..."

Jingzhi's sudden chuckle interrupted him.

She poked his burning cheek with her free hand and asked, "Are you having a fever again?"

She murmured again:

"I thought you were a bitch. Ever since I expressed my love for you, you've been so relentless that you couldn't even initiate a kiss until now."

Lin Jiu: "..."

He took a few deep breaths, trying to suppress the emotion that was about to make him laugh because of her.

However, the air in the quilt was already filled with her faint body fragrance.

The deeper he breathed, the redder his eyes became.

Jingzhi only felt that Lin Jiu, whose half body was pressing on her, was about to catch fire.

She was happy about his tolerance.

She stretched her neck and gently pecked his hot cheek, then held down his mouth that was about to speak.

"Ajiu, kiss me if you want. I promised you last night, and I'm not someone who goes back on my word."

Lin Jiu: ...Then just let go!

He felt helpless, so he tilted his head and gently bit her finger.

But, he bit the gauze in his mouth.

Lin Jiu felt wronged, but he didn't say anything.

He let go of her fingers, his mouth gradually closed, and even his body temperature dropped a little.

Jingzhi stroked her fingers across his tightly pursed lips and knew that he was in a bad mood again.

This person is getting more and more depressed day by day. He keeps everything inside, including things and emotions. It's really...

"Give me a kiss, give me a kiss, don't keep it in your heart—mm!"

Lin Jiu didn't dare to open his eyes. Even though his heart was beating wildly, he was extremely restrained in his actions towards her.

He slowly lowered his head towards her lips...

……(slightly)……

At this moment, Jingzhi, standing in front of the stove, stirring porridge with one hand and touching her still hot lips with the other, deeply understood a truth.

Don’t flirt with men in the morning, and the same goes for old men.

Finally, he succeeded once.

But he is such a gentle person.
