【Xiyao】Snow in Zhaocheng

"How do you feel?" Lan Xichen took a few quick steps and pulled Jin Guangyao's wrist to feel his pulse, finally heaving a sigh of relief.

When Lan Xichen's warm fingertips touched his wrist, Jin Guangyao unconsciously curled his fingers, wanting to break free for a moment.

But his self-control is astonishing, and he is still very obedient and motionless. Letting Lan Xichen do whatever he wants, he only frowned slightly, and said distressedly: "It feels like I have slept for a long, long time...Zewu-jun, why would I faint?"

Lan Xichen dragged him into the room, patted his head comfortingly, sat him down on the couch, and said in a gentle voice, "The place where the coffin is filled with evil spirits is too heavy, it's normal for you to feel uncomfortable."

After saying this, Lan Xichen suddenly tilted his head and gave a low cough.

Jin Guangyao was startled, and then he noticed that Lan Xichen's face was much paler than before.

He pursed his lips, and said softly, "Zewu-jun...did I miss something?"

Lan Xichen rubbed his hair with a smile, shook his head and said, "It's not because of you, it's just that the person sealed in the coffin is becoming more and more difficult to deal with, we were caught off guard for a while."

He paused, and said apologetically: "Tomorrow is the second siege, there are still many things to prepare, you stay here to rest well, Si Zhui and Jing Yi have arrived, when I am not around, they will protect you .”

Jin Guangyao nodded obediently, and said, "Zewu-jun, be careful."

Lan Xichen's heart warmed up, he couldn't help rubbing Jin Guangyao's hair again, and said with a smile, "Okay."

After Lan Xichen left, Jin Guangyao stroked his hair, which seemed to still be warm from Lan Xichen's fingertips after being rubbed, and was a little dazed for a while.

In his previous life, although he and Lan Xichen were close, they were real gentlemen's friends. Such intimacy has never been seen before.

He tugged at his present face, and gave a low laugh.

Unexpectedly, in this life, I took advantage of being young.

After a while someone knocked on the door, Lan Sizhui and Lan Jingyi greeted him, and stayed in the next room.

As night fell, Jin Guangyao was lying on the couch with his clothes on, his eyes slightly closed, silently counting the time in his heart.

The sky darkened little by little, and when the moon was in the middle of the sky, three falcon calls suddenly came from outside the window.

Jin Guangyao suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a flash of light in them.

coming.

......

"There are birds in this barren place?" Wei Wuxian clicked his tongue vaguely, holding a piece of grass he didn't know where to find.

Lan Wangji frowned and pulled out the grass, and threw it away expressionlessly, but Wei Wuxian keenly saw a trace of disgust in his eyes.

He let out a hey, and said, "It's not easy to find a root of grass on a barren mountain, but I managed to find it!"

Lan Wangji turned his head silently, not intending to make a sound.

Jiang Cheng snorted coldly, and said sarcastically, "When is it? You're the only one with big hearts."

Ever since the plan to use Jin Ling as bait was made, Sect Master Jiang's complexion has not been clear.

Wei WuXian raised his eyebrows, hooked Jin Ling's shoulder with a smile, and said with a loving elder look, "We Jin Ling have grown up, and we can be independent long ago, can't we?"

Jin Ling curled his lips, but didn't break free, Jiang Cheng snorted, acquiescing.

Tomorrow will be a dangerous and unknown siege, these people are bickering happily here, Lan Xichen said helplessly: "Okay, everyone, take a rest, and go to the back mountain at dawn tomorrow."

The crowd dispersed, and Lan Xichen walked to Jin Guangyao's room alone, and saw the lights still on in the room from a distance.

He frowned suspiciously, walked over and opened the door a few steps, and said, "Why isn't it so late..."

His voice stopped here, and his heart skipped two beats for an instant.

The room was empty.

At this moment, light footsteps came from behind him, Lan Xichen turned around abruptly, and saw Jin Guangyao's hair was disheveled, he was draped in a blouse, and his expression was very tense.

Lan Xichen just breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Jin Guangyao's appearance, couldn't help but raise his heart again, and asked, "What's wrong?"

When Jin Guangyao saw Lan Xichen, it was as if he had seen a savior. He grabbed Lan Xichen by the corner of his clothes, but did not speak.

As they got closer, with the help of the light in the room, Lan Xichen realized that Jin Guangyao's face was extremely pale, and even the circles of his eyes were red.

He held Jin Guangyao's hand holding the hem of his clothes, felt Jin Guangyao's fingertips were trembling, and pulled him into his arms, patted him soothingly like a child, and said in a warm voice: " Why are you so afraid?"

Jin Guangyao muttered for a while, then said: "I had a dream, I dreamed of my aunt...and my father."

Lan Xichen felt pain in his heart, straightened Jin Guangyao's messy hair on his cheeks, and said in a low voice, "It's all right."

Jin Guangyao gave a wry smile, and said: "It's obvious that someone who has never met before fell into a dream somehow, it's just absurd... I woke up and wanted to find you, but I didn't go far, and I was afraid of disturbing you." After discussing important matters with you, I will come back."

Lan Xichen frowned and said, "Why don't you call Sizhui and Jingyi?"

Jin Guangyao was stunned for a moment, and said, "I'm the one who lost my head..."

Lan Xichen sighed. After all, he couldn't bear to blame Jin Guangyao for going out alone at night, so he just dragged him back to lie down, blew out the lights, and said softly, "Sleep, I'll watch you here."

Jin Guangyao nodded, closed his eyes, and quietly put his sweaty hands behind his back under the quilt.

At dawn on the second day, Lan Xichen and the others went to the back mountain. Before leaving, Nie Huaisang suddenly stopped Jin Ling and said solemnly, "Tomorrow is dangerous. Little Sect Master Jin, be careful."

I was used to Nie Huaisang's obedient attitude, but at this time Nie Huaisang unexpectedly took on the posture of an elder, his expression was full of sincerity and worry, which made Jin Ling a little confused for a while.

But he still cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Sect Master Nie, for reminding me."

Nie HuaiSang nodded, patted Jin Ling on the shoulder encouragingly, and said, "Let's go."

Everyone entered the forest cautiously like last time. Jin Ling walked alone in a relatively open place, and the others surrounded him tightly, so that he would not be too conspicuous, and they could protect Jin Ling in the first place.

Arriving at the place where they met Nie Mingjue last time, Jin Ling stood still, took out the dagger in his sleeve, and cut his own wrist without hesitation, the dark red blood dripped down and seeped into the soil, It turned into a shocking dark red.

There was no movement in the forest.

Jin Ling frowned, and cut down on the previous wound forcefully. This time, the blood flowed down in streams, and the strong smell of blood permeated instantly, and Jin Ling's face was also a little pale.

He was staying on the other wrist and cut a knife, when he suddenly heard heavy footsteps behind him.

Jin Ling closed his eyes, silently counting the footsteps in his heart.

Three, two, one...

It's now!

Jin Ling dodged suddenly, narrowly dodging Nie Mingjue's fierce claws, and without any reluctance to fight, Yu Jian galloped towards the direction of the coffin outside the forest.

Nie Mingjue roared angrily, and followed Jin Ling closely. Jin Ling controlled the speed of Yujian, hanging in front of him leisurely, ensuring that Nie Mingjue could always be stimulated by the blood, while Lan Xichen and others The people followed Jin Ling closely, forming a siege.

Seeing that the coffin jar was just below, Jin Ling jumped down and went straight behind the coffin jar, but Nie Mingjue came looking for the smell of blood, and didn't know how to bypass the coffin jar, so he stepped in directly!

The bottom of the coffin was wet and slippery. After stepping in, Nie Mingjue swayed, and his body fell violently!

Everyone was overjoyed, and they immediately pushed down the coffin lid with all their strength, but at the last moment, Nie Huaisang's sleeve brushed against the crack of the coffin lid, and Nie Mingjue, who was already exhausted, suddenly went berserk, and broke out of the coffin, with all five fingers tied together. The claws grabbed Jin Ling straight!

No one expected such a sudden turn of events, Jiang Cheng swung his sword to cut Nie Mingjue's arm, but that claw carried the force of thunder, and shook Jiang Cheng's sword away, without any power to stop it!

But Jin Ling retreated quickly, but it was already too late!
