The sacred tree is about to pass, and the cannon fodder's wish countdown is coming

After some thought, Lu Shi still didn't know what gift to give Lu Ciyan, so she took out a bunch of life-saving magic weapons from the original owner's storage bag.

These life-saving magic weapons were collected by the original owner with a lot of effort. Each one has extraordinary effects and can save lives at critical moments.

Lu Shi thought that in order to ensure Lu Ciyan's safety, there was no more suitable gift than these magic weapons.

So when Lu Ciyan was still asleep, Lu Shi placed these magic weapons on the table in his room, left the words "birthday gift" and left quickly.

Lu Ciyan was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt a slight pain on his forehead.

He forced his eyes open and saw that it was the snow-white crane pecking his forehead gently with its long beak. That was Yan Yan's usual way of waking people up.

Lu Ciyan used to think that the spiritual crane given to him by his master was useless. After all, now that he has learned to fly with a sword, the spiritual crane seems to have lost its original function as a mount.

However, what he didn't expect was that this seemingly useless crane actually had other uses, and now it has become his "exclusive alarm clock" every morning.

In fact, the system does not want to do this, but due to the orders of its host, it has no choice.

One is the short-term master, and the other is the long-term host. Everyone knows how to choose, but it is not easy to offend the short-term master.

So the system immediately spread its wings and pointed towards the pile of treasures on the table, hoping that he would not get angry with itself when he saw the treasures.

As expected, Lu Ciyan, who was originally nestled in the warm quilt, his eyes lit up instantly when his eyes fell on those dazzling treasures, and he jumped out of the quilt.

He didn't even have time to put on his outer clothes. Wearing only a thin inner garment, he rushed to the table with his short legs, hugged the pile of treasures tightly and refused to let go.

The big words "Happy Birthday" on the side are particularly eye-catching, and the black ink is particularly dazzling on the white paper.

Lu Ciyan didn't even have to think about it to guess who gave this gift.

Hehe, his master really didn’t hate him. Not only did he not hate him, but he liked him very much. Otherwise, why would he give him so many treasures that his storage bag could hardly hold them all.

Lu Ciyan was happily immersed in his own thoughts, his smile growing brighter.

Since the master has given him so many magic weapons, I will cook a meal for the master as a reward!

So Lu Shi spent several hours going to several other mountains to collect food, catching a fish in this elder's spirit pond, and catching a chicken in that elder's spirit field.

Then, risking being discovered, he secretly picked a few fresh and tender herbs from the medicinal fields carefully tended by other elders and used them as vegetables.

On the way back, he heard several elders discussing that there was a thousand-year-old snow lotus in the mountain where their master lived, so he rode Yan Yan non-stop to look for it. They searched until dark, and the man and the crane still hadn't returned.

Lu Shi didn't notice anything wrong until the disciple in charge of guarding the jade token sent her a message.

Only then did Lu Shi realize that Lu Ciyan was in danger.

That’s right, today is Lu Ciyan’s birthday, and with his personality he shouldn’t be so quiet.

Fortunately, the system was with him, and Lu Shi quickly communicated with the system in his mind.

Unexpectedly, the system was talking nonsense. Lu Shi spent some time to carefully distinguish it before he realized that they were at Xinglan Peak.

As if he had thought of something, Lu Shi flew towards the back mountain.

There's a cliff behind Xinglan Peak, and beneath it grows a large patch of ghost grass. The scent and juice of the ghost grass can paralyze the nerves and cause hallucinations.

The original owner had set up a barrier here. This barrier was like an invisible barrier, firmly sealing the fragrance of the ghost grass in the back mountain, preventing it from escaping.

However, this barrier did not prevent others from entering the back mountain.

If she guessed correctly, the two guys must have come in by mistake.

Sure enough, when Lu Shi reached the bottom of the cliff, the man and the crane fell to the ground covered with purple ghost grass, and a large area of ​​ghost grass under them was crushed by them.

The system kept barking randomly, as if it was arguing passionately with someone in a dream, and looked very energetic.

But Lu Ciyan lay there quietly, with his eyes closed, his face twisted and painful, as if he was enduring great torture.

Looking at Lu Ciyan's expression, Lu Shi already understood about 70% of what was going on. She guessed that he must be immersed in a fantasy and dreaming about his unbearable childhood experiences.

She took them back.

There is no antidote for ghost grass, and it does not cause much harm to ordinary people or things. It is just like sleeping or having a dream.

But for people like Lu Ciyan who have suffered psychological trauma, the ghost grass is like an executioner that tears open their wounds, cruelly and with no solution.

At this moment, Lu Ciyan's originally tender little hands were clenched into fists, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and his brows were furrowed, as if he was enduring great pain.

Lu Shi touched his brow with his fingertips, and a warm and gentle spiritual power flowed into Lu Ciyan's body from his fingertips, slowly flowing along his meridians, gently relieving his pain.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a dream, everything will be fine once you wake up."

"Don't be afraid, I am here with you."

Lu Shi's voice was gentle yet firm, as if it had a magical power that could penetrate layers of fog and reach the depths of people's hearts.

"Don't be afraid..."

The ethereal calls rang in my ears.

In the snow and ice of November and December, Lu Ciyan was pushed into the icy lake by his so-called brother.

There was a thin layer of ice on the surface of the lake, and his fall into the water was like a huge stone, smashing a huge hole in the thin ice.

In an instant, the bone-chilled lake water quickly covered his head and poured mercilessly into his mouth, nose and ears. He was almost suffocated and the lake water almost froze his body.

The strong desire to survive made him start to struggle. He had a premonition that this was not the way he should end up. He seemed to have touched the edge of happiness and would encounter happiness in the next step. He should not die here.

But the extremely real touch told him that he was really going to die.

The laughter of the people on the shore was like a sharp blade, penetrating the lake water straight into his ears and piercing his heart.

He realized his own powerlessness and closed his eyes in despair and pain.

But he didn't know when, a soft and familiar calling voice floated into his ears like the sound of nature. It replaced the cold ridicule and gradually dispelled the fear and haze lingering in his heart.

Those repeated words of "Don't be afraid" were like a bright ray of dawn, pulling him back from the cold and dark bottom of the lake and awakening his mind.

I seem to have heard this voice somewhere before.

"Don't be afraid, Master is here..."

Master...Master!

Lu Ciyan suddenly opened his eyes, his vision was a little blurry, but he soon focused on the familiar and reassuring face of Lu Shi in front of him.

The coldness in his body faded away, and he was wrapped in a warm and comfortable quilt. Only then did Lu Ciyan feel as if he was still alive.

He just stared at Lu Shi blankly, his big round eyes never leaving her figure for a moment, and his eyes revealed an almost pious concentration.

"You're tired, have a good sleep."

Lu Shi said softly, and at the same time stretched out his hand to gently wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead. His movements were very gentle, and his voice was also a little coaxing.

Lu Ciyan felt as if his eyelids weighed a thousand pounds. He tried hard to open his eyes and look at his master again, but in the end he could not resist the invasion of fatigue and closed his eyes unconsciously.

After a while, when Lu Ciyan's breathing calmed down, Lu Shi stood up and prepared to leave.

But since some time, Lu Ciyan's little hand has tightly grasped one of her fingers.

Her finger moved slightly, and the little hand holding her suddenly exerted force. Her breathing, which had originally stabilized, began to become rapid, and she seemed to be about to wake up at any time.

After Lu Shi sat down again, his rapid breathing slowly became steady.

In this situation, it seems that she can't leave.

Lu Shi simply sat down and meditated on the spot and began to practice.

In this way, the night passed quickly.

When Lu Ciyan woke up, he was surprised to find that his master was always by his side, and his hand was tightly holding her fingers.

Inexplicably, Lu Ciyan did not let go, but instead held it even tighter.
