Blossoms

9.

The air in the underground palace was damper and colder than the white snow outside. Even though Zi Xi was already wearing layers of thick clothes that Chu Rui had wrapped herself in, she couldn't help but sneezed.

So the underground palace is like this, so dark.

A winding staircase in front of him extends all the way down to an invisible abyss.

Zixi frowned, she didn't have any firewood on her, so she couldn't see where the road led, should she wait for Chu Ruirui to find her.

Thinking of this, he found a relatively clean place and sat down.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, he ran into the dormitory, but he didn't expect that the entrance of the underground palace was hidden behind the curtain of the dormitory.As soon as Zixi entered, she noticed that the wind direction was extremely wrong. It was obvious that there was a universe behind the curtain.

When she was a killer, she studied too many traps. It took Zixi a short while to find a way to open the trap, but once the trap was opened, it would close on its own after a while.

There was no other way, Zixi stepped into the tunnel of the underground palace, and before leaving, she smiled triumphantly at Ani who was outside the window.

I didn't expect it to be so dark.

Zixi waved her hand, and remembering that Chu Rui might not be able to see her position, she raised her sword and stuffed it into the gap of the closed stone gate, trying to pry it open, but she didn't poke it in. The gap may be too small.

Gathering her inner strength in her palm, Zixi swiped towards the stone gate with the hilt of her sword in her hand.

Countless sword intents slashed towards the stone gate, and there was a loud sound, echoing throughout the passage.

Shimen still didn't move.

It's a bit troublesome, Zixi put away the sword, then there is no other way, go directly to the senior sister for help.

Zixi didn't care how dark the passage was. He just took steps and walked down the steps. Only the sound of his footsteps echoed throughout the passage. Occasionally, the sound of water dripping left along the stone wall of the passage. Zixi also walked down the stairs. I didn't bother to guess where this place was, I just kept walking forward.

After the steps went down, there were several passages. Zixi judged the direction a little and chose a passage. He knew a lot about ancient traps, but he had never seen many such huge ones.

For example, the path he chose is full of traps that will be stabbed to death by spikes that pop up instantly if he steps on it. As soon as Zixi arrived, he noticed that the bloody smell here was particularly strong, like an open funeral. General field.

The best way to test the trap is to trigger the trap and get stuck in it. Zixi flew out with a sword intent in each hand, and several spikes popped out directly, accompanied by a thick bloody smell permeating the air.

Speaking of which, it's time for him to take a nap now.

Why isn't Chu Ruirui here yet?

He really wanted to take a nap.

Zixi yawned and walked back slowly. This way is blocked, so let's try another passage. Thinking of this, Zixi turned around and walked out of this passage, and there was a burning smell.

Recognizing the smell of burnt huozhe, Zixi was in a good mood and walked towards the second passage.

This passage is very short, and it will be over soon. There is a strange smell from the surroundings mixed with the burning smell of the fire, and Zixi recognizes that it is the sweet smell that permeates the bedroom.

Another trap?

Zixi quickly walked out of this passage, just in time to see Chu Rui walking down the steps.

"Sorry, it's too late." Chu Rui inserted the torch in his hand into the groove on the stone wall, and said to him in a reproachful tone: "Zi Xi, don't go away alone next time, I didn't tell you to wait for me Is it?"

Zixi listened to his words, but her head was a little heavy, and the picture in front of her eyes gradually blurred.

The strange fragrance in the air is getting stronger and stronger.

"I do not like you."

"You and I are both men, how can I accept such a moral violation?"

……

It is full of spring, and the floating life is immersed in a piece of emerald green.

Mo Zixi stood in the Qingfeng Hall, watching Chu Rui lower his head and read the book of herbal medicine in his hand. After a while, he heard Chu Rui's angry tone: "Aren't you alright? Why are you walking around again?" ?”

"I have to go back to Wangjun Mountain, and I will come back later." Mo Zixi looked at Chu Rui's surprised expression, and said, "Brother Chu, let's just say goodbye, take care."

Chu Rui heard his words and stood up quickly.

"Brother Mo, I see that your injuries are not healed. It's only been a few days. You should take a good rest." Chu Rui said, took out a bottle of pills from his arms, and said: "This is The pills you take every day, you have to take good care of them when you go back, for the time being... don't take them lightly."

Mo Zixi took the pill and smiled at him: "In the end, you doctor still didn't keep me."

Chu Rui was dumb for a while, Mo Zixi didn't say anything, turned and left Fushengsheng.

He thought they would never see each other again.

But soon, they met again a few months later, and Chu Rui was surprised to see Mo Zixi, who was scarred again, in front of Qingfengtang again: "Brother Mo?"

"We met again, this time you have to take me in for a while." Mo Zixi was still able to hold on this time, Chu Rui was about to take care of his skin injuries, he smiled slightly, and pointed to the little white flowers all over the floor: " You see, the last time I came here, the mountain flowers hadn't bloomed yet, and I came back as soon as they bloomed, what a fate."

Chu Rui didn't want to pay attention to his nonsense, and didn't want to ask him where he got the injury. He just took him into the Qingfengtang and healed him for a while.

"This time the injury is relatively mild." Chu Rui said.

"Because it's much easier this time." Mo Zixi responded in a nonchalant manner, and Chu Rui didn't want to care how he answered, picked up the medicine ball and pressed it on his wound, the strength in his hand deepened, Mo Zixi couldn't help but He yelled, "It hurts!"

Chu Rui glanced at him, and said angrily: "Why do you come to me every time? Such a small injury, do you think there is no qualified pharmacist in Junshan to bandage you?"

There was an eerie silence in the air.

Mo Zixi and Chu Rui looked at each other for a long time, then slowly said, "I like you more than those pharmacists."

Chu Rui threw the medicine ball to him directly: "Wipe it yourself."

After he finished speaking, he left Qingfengtang, just as Nie Hongling was already waiting for him at the door with a tip-off letter from all the disciples in the hall.Chu Rui saw her eyes and knew that she was going to start training people again.

"Sister..."

"You must be Hall Master Nie of Qingjin Hall." Mo Zixi leaned against the door at some point, "I have admired the name of Qingjin Hall for a long time, I'm..."

"Mo Zixi." Nie Hongling raised her eyebrows, and she raised her knife in her hand: "Such a leisurely life has been floating around all the time, don't you know what is enough is enough?"

"I don't know." Mo Zixi's eyes were provocative, but he didn't draw his sword. He shook his head and said to Nie Hongling, "Why don't you teach me, Master Nie."

Nie Hongling was about to throw the throwing knife in a fit of rage, but Chu Rui quickly stopped her: "Senior sister, he is an injured patient."

One of the ancestral precepts established by Master Yaoxian when he founded Fushengsheng also included that Fushengsheng's disciples were not allowed to attack the wounds Fushengsheng healed, and to injure others.

Fortunately, he is an injured patient.

"Don't let me see you elsewhere." Nie Hongling put away the knife and said, "Get out of here when you're healed, or I'll let you go."

"Naturally." Mo Zixi nodded, "But my injury hasn't healed yet."

After Nie Hongling taught Mo Zixi a lesson, she left Qingfengtang angrily.

Chu Rui breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to stare at Mo Zixi.

Mo Zixi smiled brightly at him.

For the next few days, Mo Zixi followed Chu Rui all the way to grind the medicine powder in the Herb Room, which made Chu Rui a little impatient: "Can you stop following me?"

"I'm just bored staying in the room." Seeing him frowning, Mo Zixi was in a surprisingly good mood: "Let me see what you're up to..." After finishing speaking, she leaned over.

Putting the medicine bottle in Chu Rui's hand on the table, he reached out to push him away. Mo Zixi's body that was about to lean against was pushed like this, and the wooden stool he was sitting on became unsteady and rushed towards him.

Kuang————

Mo Zixi caressed her forehead that collided with Chu Rui: "Sorry, one is unstable."

An unstable?

Chu Rui really wanted to yell at him, so why did he sit on me?

"I'm really sorry." Mo Zixi said, and quickly helped him up, smiling repeatedly.

"Forget it." Chu Rui tidied up the scattered medicine powder: "Really, why do you look like a child."

clumsy.

When Chu Rui had almost gotten used to Mo Zixi's existence, a few more days had passed, and Mo Zixi had to look back at Junshan again. His injuries were not completely healed, so Chu Rui gave him another bottle of elixir for him to take .After giving instructions, Chu Rui sighed: "Come back later, don't make senior sister angry."

"How did you know that I would come again?" Mo Zixi said, seeing Chu Rui's deflated expression, he smiled: "Okay, I will come back to look for you next time when the flowers on Yashang bloom."

"No need." Chu Rui stuffed the bottle into his hand: "If you don't want to come, you can do whatever you want."

The two were silent for a long time.

"You and I know each other so well, why don't we just call me Zixi." Mo Zixi smiled at him, "Chu Rui, take care." After speaking, he used lightness kung fu to fly away from Fushengshang.

Chu Rui looked at his back and froze for a long time.

He said that when the flowers bloom on Yashang, he will come again.

Chu Rui just felt that this sentence sounded so strange, like an agreement that they would meet again, and why they must meet again.

The mountain flowers outside the door sway gently with the breeze.

……

When Zixi came to his senses, he pulled off Chu Rui's collar and bit him on the neck. His white and jade-like skin was actually imprinted with his own teeth marks. He blinked, and the bloody smell in his mouth spread.

How hard is he biting?

Zixi felt that Chu Rui must have gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart. He stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked the tooth marks lightly. There was really no way to get rid of the red marks immediately.

"Zixi?" Chu Rui felt that the wound on his neck was no longer so painful, and hurriedly pulled him off his body: "Are you okay?"

Zixi touched the tooth marks on his body and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"It hurts a little." Chu Rui didn't lie, he really just hurt a little, Zixi bit him, he wouldn't feel really hurt no matter what.

"But it's bleeding." Zi Xi said with a bewildered expression.

Chu Rui smiled. Under the firelight, Zixi saw him smoothing her hair dotingly, and said softly, "It's okay."

Why doesn't it matter?Zixi frowned, a little flustered in her heart, and quickly pulled off her collar: "Bite it back!"

Chu Rui watched his movements, and his heart froze.

Seeing that he was not moving, Zixi hurriedly pinned his head and leaned towards her neck: "I'll let you bite it back!"
