The thought that came to his mind suddenly made Li Huowang tremble all over.
He carefully touched his whole body and found that there was no more jade pendant on his body. He was completely relieved.
"That's right, I was dreaming just now, I was dreaming just now." Li Huowang kept mumbling to himself with lingering fear.
"What's wrong?" Bai Lingmiao lit the oil lamp and asked sleepily.
"Nothing, nothing happened, just go to sleep."
Seeing that Li Huowang didn't answer anything, Bai Lingmiao didn't say anything either and closed her eyes.
Her white-haired head rested lightly on his shoulder, and her slender palms gently caressed his rising and falling chest.
Pressing the palm of his chest with his hand, Li Huowang looked straight at the beam above his head. "Miaomiao."
"Huh?" Bai Lingmiao, who was half asleep and half awake, responded subconsciously.
"Do you want to know my past? Do you know why I got hysteria?"
Bai Lingmiao's sleepiness was suddenly driven away. She opened her eyes in surprise and looked sideways at the man beside her. This was the first time that Senior Brother Li talked to her about his past.
After spending time together day and night, she had already noticed that Senior Brother Li was different from the rest of them.
The difference is not due to different countries, but a very special feeling of being out of place. She is not the only one, others also think so, but they don't say it out loud.
"Actually, I'm not from here."
"I know, you are not from Siqi."
Li Huowang smiled knowingly and shook his head. "I mean I am not from this world, I am from another world..."
Accompanied by a swinging oil lamp, Li Huowang slowly explained his origins and his troubles to Bai Lingmiao.
As he continued to talk, Li Huowang felt better, as if someone was sharing the heavy burden on him.
Li Huowang stopped talking until the paper window was dimly lit, and the room was very quiet for a while, "Don't you have anything to ask?"
"Yes." Bai Lingmiao took his hand out of Li Huowang's and held his hand in reverse, the hand that had three fingernails missing.
The tips of his fingers were trembling as he gently stroked the blood scabs. "What's going on with the red bamboo slips?"
"Let me tell you a little fun fact. In fact, human nails can regenerate. After the nails are removed, they will grow back on their own."
Li Huowang changed the subject and was about to pull away from her hand, but she pinched him again. Then he saw Bai Lingmiao's red and stubborn eyes appear in front of him.
"I don't care where you come from, and I don't care what happened to hysteria. I just know if the injury on your abdomen is related to it?"
Li Huowang didn't answer her question, he just pressed her head into his arms and patted her gently.
"Senior Brother Li, that thing is too evil. Throw it away. If you continue like this, you will really be killed by it."
After saying this, Bai Lingmiao paused for a moment, but finally said with a hint of tears: "If you die, what will happen to me?"
Li Huowang sighed softly. Bai Lingmiao looks soft and waxy, but this is just her appearance. In fact, she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.
"I'll think about it again, think about it again..."
In fact, Li Huowang also knows that "Da Qian Lu" is a double-edged sword, and he will be bruised all over if he is not careful.
But this thing is also a very useful tool. With it, I have a certain ability to protect myself in this weird world.
Throw it away, what should you do if you really encounter evil spirits such as the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month? You can't rely on Danyangzi, right?
He also wants to join some other sect and practice to gain enough strength. But this is even more difficult.
Let’s not talk about whether others will accept it or not, whether it will steal his own rare talent. Even if others are willing to accept it, Li Huowang may not dare to practice it.
Qingfengguan, Zhengde Temple, Anci'an, after getting in touch with these sects, Li Huowang basically has no hope for other sects, and each one is definitely more evil than the other.
Before finding other substitutes, "Da Qian Lu" must not be thrown away. This is the foundation of one's life, even if one has to pay an extremely cruel price every time he uses it.
Unknowingly, there was movement outside the door, and other senior brothers and sisters were preparing breakfast.
As soon as Li Huowang sat up, Bai Lingmiao was about to help him get dressed, but he suddenly froze. "Wait a minute."
He slowly pressed the gauze on his abdomen with his hand, and found that it didn't hurt so much. When he pulled it away, he found that the wound inside was already close to healing.
"Healed so quickly?" Even Li Huowang himself was surprised.
According to Li Huowang's guess, it would take at least half a month to recover to this level. His body seems to be undergoing some kind of change.
After thinking for a long time, Li Huowang focused on the last look Ba Hui looked at him. "This should be a good thing, right?"
At this moment, Li Huowang was feeling mixed emotions. He really understood too little about the thing he had summoned with the pain of his body and mind.
I don’t know what this means.
"Is this making it easier for me to self-harm?" Li Huowang thought for a long time and could only think of this reason.
It is said that there are many lice but it is not itchy, and there is no need to worry about too many debts. In Danyangzi, you still have your own condition. This can only be regarded as a trivial matter.
"According to this trend, my injury should be almost recovered by tomorrow. Let's rest here for another day and go back tomorrow." Li Huowang said to Bai Lingmiao.
Bai Lingmiao seemed hesitant to speak, and finally nodded.
When they heard that it was time to go back, the others began to move things to the carriage, almost cleaning up the entire yard, and even put two old hens that could lay eggs on it.
When it was time for dinner again, Li Huowang took off the gauze and found that the wound was almost healed.
"It's not bad. At least after all the hard work, I finally got something." Li Huowang is quite satisfied with this inexplicable ability. With this ability, at least he will not die so easily in the future.
Arriving at the lobby again, Li Huowang sat down and started to eat. On the table were some farm side dishes, all picked from the fields in Wujiacun.
Although they are all vegetarian, they are fried with lard after all, so they still taste good.
Li Huowang picked up a piece of radish and took a bite. He frowned, "Who made this rice? Why is it still so salty?"
Although his appetite for food is not that high, he is not an animal after all.
Li Huowang soon saw a pale Taoist boy standing up, "Senior Brother Li...it's me..."
Bai Lingmiao on the side picked up the radish on Li Huowang's chopsticks. "Brother Li, this radish is not so salty, it's just right."
"No?" Li Huowang doubtfully picked up another piece and took a bite, only to find that it was still very salty.
"Forget it, keep eating." Eat something salty and eat more."
