If you say you're not afraid, that's definitely a lie.
But instead of being afraid, what Li Xuanxuan cares about now is peony.
"Are you often punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall?"
Xiao Shaoyao didn't pay attention to Li Xuanxuan's change of topic. She just looked directly at Li Xuanxuan and said, "Isn't it because you are not afraid because there is no one you care about in your original world?"
Li Xuanxuan subconsciously retorted: "How is it possible-"
"How is it impossible?"
There was no sound in the ancestral hall for an instant.
After the two looked at each other for a while, it was Li Xuanxuan who was defeated first. She lowered her eyes and murmured: "I think it happened before..."
For example, peony and pinellia under Guantou Cliff, for example, Li Sisi in Qinghe City, for example, Kong Qing in Baiweizhou, for example...for example...Xie Shixun who has been accompanying her all the time...
As soon as the three words "Xie Shixun" appeared, Li Xuanxuan's heart suddenly hurt.
The pain seemed to go deep into the bone marrow and into the soul. The pain made Li Xuanxuan unconscious and unstable.
It really hurts.
Just when Li Xuanxuan thought she was going to faint from the pain, she was suddenly hugged by someone. For a moment, the pain disappeared without a trace. She lowered her head and looked -
I found that it was Xiao Shaoyao hugging me.
"you……"
Li Xuanxuan opened her mouth, but did not continue.
Because no one knows better than her that Shaoyao's hug is telling her that she still has her...
Li Xuanxuan had a smile on her face.
She raised her hand and was about to hug Little Peony back when there was a knock on the window next to her.
The people outside the window did not wait for their reaction, and opened the window directly after knocking——
It’s Xiao Banxia.
There are also a lot of food, drinks, bedding, mats, etc.
After Xiao Banxia skillfully threw the things in, she followed through the window and came in to clean them up. The surprise on Li Xuanxuan's face was probably too obvious, so she took the time to explain:
"Every time Miss is punished, our spiritual power and magical weapons cannot be used!"
These words seemed to answer Li Xuanxuan's previous question.
But when she looked towards Xiao Shaoyao, Xiao Shaoyao turned her head away. Li Xuanxuan could only look at Xiao Banxia, and she was too embarrassed to just watch, so she stepped forward to help.
Xiao Banxia saw her and pressed her down directly, "No, you need to rest too!"
Li Xuanxuan was stunned for a moment.
It wasn't anything else, but she suddenly realized: Xiao Shaoyao and Xiao Banxia could not only see her, but also touch her.
Although it was an afterthought, it made Li Xuanxuan even more convinced——
She is here to change the fate of peony and pinellia!
This made her feel hot!
But before Li Xuanxuan could say or do anything else, she was suddenly pulled to sit down, and Xiao Banxia's voice followed closely:
"You guys should take a rest!"
"It's late at night!"
"..."
Probably because he was punished to kneel down to gain experience.
Xiao Shaoyao and Xiao Banxia were both very calm. Not only did they sleep peacefully in the ancestral hall, they also did not miss three meals a day and even midnight snacks. After waiting for the ancestral hall to be lifted, the two of them quickly returned to their yard with their luggage.
, begins a new round of confinement.
The confinement in the yard cannot trap Li Xuanxuan, but...
Probably knowing that Shaoyao was often trapped here, Li Xuanxuan couldn't bear to 'abandon' her, so she stayed with her.
Peony must have noticed it too.
So these days, she has been reading books on formations, which are the only ones that make Li Xuanxuan feel dizzy.
But Li Xuanxuan also knew that Shaoyao was doing it for her, so she endured her dizziness and watched with her. However, nothing happened to Xiao Shaoyao, but Li Xuanxuan was ridiculed by the master and servant for no reason!
Li Xuanxuan was also extremely depressed about this.
But she didn't know what was going on, so the only thing she could do was to forcefully write down those extremely complicated magic circles.
You definitely won’t be able to use it, but being able to write it down is considered a skill, right?
If you work so hard during the day, of course you have to relax at night.
Since she realized that she was a transparent person, Li Xuanxuan discovered that it didn't matter if she didn't sleep. It happened that Xiao Shaoyao and Xiao Banxia had to practice or rest at night, so Li Xuanxuan took the opportunity to go out and play.
In just one night, Li Xuanxuan explored the entire valley and the villages outside. After that, she mainly explored the Yaowang Valley and the place where Wu Luozi was!
After following each other for several nights, Li Xuanxuan found that she could not understand the other party...
At first, Li Xuanxuan would be discovered sometimes, but not sometimes. After trying a few more times, she found that she would be discovered almost every time when she was close to the study?!
Li Xuanxuan became more and more careful and curious about the study.
After constant testing, Li Xuanxuan was able to sneak in occasionally. At the same time, she also learned from other people——
In the study room is the spiritual tablet of Shaoyao’s mother.
When she got close to him for the first time, Li Xuanxuan was a little shocked because Wu Luozi was so sad.
That demeanor is completely unfaithful...
That time, it was because she was so shocked that Li Xuanxuan could not fully control herself, let out her breath, and was discovered.
After leaving, Li Xuanxuan became even more puzzled.
Wu Lezi's mother loved Shaoyao so much, so why did she ignore their daughter?
After following for a few more nights, Li Xuanxuan discovered a pattern——
Wu Luozi was most wary of the study, but when he faced the spiritual place inside, that was when his wariness was at its weakest!
Li Xuanxuan always got in through this loophole.
After watching it a few times, Li Xuanxuan gradually got used to being sad and crying. At the same time, she was able to capture some useful information, such as:
Wu Liuzi loved his wife very deeply.
To what extent? To the point where I want to die with her...
It's just that Wuluzi is not only a husband, he is also a father, and he is also the master of the grain!
His pursuit of death was stopped, but he was almost useless.
Because he began to ignore his cultivation and general affairs, for him personally, his cultivation level was stagnating or even regressing; for Yaowang Valley, his reputation was gradually fading.
Yaowang Valley is actually not bad. After all, besides the owner of the valley, there are other elders who can take over. As for Wuluozi himself, that is his personal choice. The worst thing is still the young Shaoyao!
If Wu Lezi didn't care at all, then that would be fine, but he would occasionally show some concern?!
It is precisely because of this that Xiao Shaoyao is worried about gains and losses!
Although Xiao Shaoyao didn't say it clearly, Li Xuanxuan knew that she must care, otherwise, she wouldn't have asked her "don't care" in the study that day...
No leaks,
How abominable!
Every time Li Xuanxuan thought about this, she couldn't control herself. She was caught in this way several times, so she would scold her, but she still tried to control her breath and looked around for other useful information.
This look really looked familiar to Li Xuanxuan——
flowerpot!
Vein shaping grass!
This is the fairy grass left by Peony’s mother!
Li Xuanxuan subconsciously leaned over, and when she got closer, she even stretched out her hand——
Without this fairy grass, Shaoyao would not have been plotted by that scumbag, and there would not have been a series of subsequent tragedies. If there had not been this fairy grass, there would have been no such fairy grass...
At this time, Li Xuanxuan only had this thought in her mind, and her hands quickly came to the vicinity of the flowerpot.
However, before Li Xuanxuan could touch it, the flowerpot automatically moved towards Li Xuanxuan's palm!
The moment she touched it, Li Xuanxuan was so startled that her whole body trembled.
What is she thinking?
This is the only relic left by Shaoyao’s mother!
How could she?!
And without this grass jelly, what will Pinellia do? How will Xie Shixun’s legs recover? Oh no, Xie Shixun’s legs will be fine even without this grass jelly. Are they her legs? No, no, they are hers.
constitution?
The sudden increase in thoughts and confused memories made Li Xuanxuan feel like her head was about to explode.
But compared to these, her breath began to become unstable, which posed the risk of being discovered. However, Li Xuanxuan ignored the fact that the flowerpot made the move first, so before she adjusted her breath, she had already heard the sound of Wu Liuzi.
:
"Lady?"
"Madam, is it you?"
Li Xuanxuan was stunned for a moment.
But Wu Luozi became more and more excited as he talked. How many years has he been waiting for!
"Madam, you finally came to see me!"
Wu Luozi stood up immediately and rushed towards the spiritual place. Li Xuanxuan saw him and quickly got out of the way.
Wu Lezi was extremely excited.
Stronger than ever before, or in other words, crazy?
Li Xuanxuan was a little scared.
But she soon realized: Wu Luzi didn't notice her? That's right, now that the other party is so excited, it would be strange to find her!
As a result, before Li Xuanxuan could finish rejoicing, Wu Liuzi over there suddenly went berserk!
It seems like there is no response?
But someone has been dead for so many years, how could there be a response? Besides, it was clearly her just now——
"No!"
With Wu Luozi's cry of sorrow, Li Xuanxuan was pushed out by a chaotic and cold force without warning!
Obviously, she underestimated the weight of Wu Lezi's beloved wife in his heart, or in other words, at this moment, Wu Lezi had lost his mind, and he couldn't even control his breath and spiritual power!
"puff!"
Li Xuanxuan fell to the ground and vomited blood.
Now, she no longer had the energy to explore whether her blood, as a transparent person, would be seen by others. She only felt that her eyes were beginning to blur and her consciousness began to drift away... No, she had to leave.
Li Xuanxuan forced herself to leave. She was afraid of scaring Xiao Shaoyao, so she returned to the medicine garden. However, she fell down as soon as she returned and before she even reached the bed.
When she opened her eyes again, Li Xuanxuan felt like she didn't know what year it was today.
Her body seemed to be very heavy. After relaxing for a while, she felt that she was back under control.
Turning his eyes——
Li Xuanxuan saw Xiao Shaoyao lying next to her and Xiao Banxia not far away. They saved her again and are still protecting her now...
As soon as her fingers moved slightly, Xiao Shaoyao was awakened.
"Are you OK?!"
Li Xuanxuan sat up with her hands on her hands. Just as she was about to speak, she found that her throat was extremely dry.
Just at this time, Xiao Shaoyao brought water, and Li Xuanxuan took it and drank it. The water was very sweet and had a faint medicinal fragrance. Not long after drinking it, Li Xuanxuan felt a sense of relaxation in her body, which was extraordinary.
Looking at Xiao Shaoyao again, her little face was extremely haggard, and the eyes looking at her were full of worry. Li Xuanxuan couldn't help but smile at her:
"Have you been looking after me for a long time?"
Xiao Shaoyao pursed her lips and said, "You've been in a coma for a month!"
Li Xuanxuan: "???"
After being stunned for a moment, Li Xuanxuan's first thought when she regained consciousness was: Why didn't she die after being in a coma for a month?
Ah bah bah bah!
Was she in a coma for a month and she still hasn't been able to go back?
Just when Li Xuanxuan didn't know whether to feel lucky or regretful, Xiao Banxia, who woke up after hearing their movements, also got up and came over. Before she could get there, she saw her young lady's body crumbling!
"Miss!"
Regardless of time or distance, Li Xuanxuan obviously has the advantage.
But after catching Xiao Shaoyao, Li Xuanxuan was surprised to find that Xiao Shaoyao was very thin! Just as the guilt was rising in her heart, she heard Xiao Banxia, who arrived a step later, complained:
"Miss!"
"I told you that you can't do this day and night, but you don't believe it!"
"Take care of this place during the day, and accompany the master and his wife at night. Even a puppet can't stand it!"
"Not to mention you are still young!!!"
Li Xuanxuan: "..."
Actually, Xiao Banxia, you are still young too!
As soon as the thought passed, Li Xuanxuan grabbed other information: Accompanying the master and waiting for his wife??? What does this mean???
Xiao Shaoyao quickly stabilized her body. She quietly broke away from Li Xuanxuan's hand, grabbed her hair unnaturally, and defended herself: "Don't listen to her nonsense, I am too strong -"
Xiao Banxia was also dissatisfied. She frowned and retorted: "You gave your spiritual power to-"
Xiao Shaoyao made a "swish" sound, and a knife passed through his eyes. Xiao Banxia was so frightened that he stopped talking in an instant.
Li Xuanxuan could see it clearly.
At the moment, there are two doubts: one is the so-called 'accompanying the master and waiting for his wife', and the other is who gave Xiao Shaoyao's spiritual power.
Xiao Shaoyao reacted more to the latter, so it was obviously not appropriate to ask too many questions at this time, and...she already vaguely had the answer in her mind. As for the first one, Xiao Shaoyao just looked embarrassed, and she could still get the answer if she thought about it and asked again.
After thinking about it, Li Xuanxuan smiled and returned to the first doubt.
As expected, Xiao Shaoyao returned to her naughty appearance.
When Xiao Banxia saw her, on the one hand, she breathed a sigh of relief, but on the other hand, she felt a little resentful that iron could not become steel. Then when she met Li Xuanxuan's "thirsty for knowledge" gaze, she decided to explain it out loud.
This matter is also simple, Xiao Banxia can finish it in just a few words.
On the other hand, Li Xuanxuan, the 'initiator', looked a little weird after listening to this.
It turns out that the noise she made with the flower pot that night really made Wu Luzi think that his wife was back!
Years of waiting came true overnight, and Wu Liuzi was ecstatic. Although he later lost control because he could not suppress himself, when he calmed down, he figured out on his own: His wife could only appear briefly?!
Maybe it’s ‘people feel refreshed when happy events happen’? Everything suddenly became normal.
He dealt with affairs in the valley during the day, and waited peacefully for his wife to appear at night. He never missed three meals a day, picked up the food every day, and even restored the image of a loving father to the little peony.
This is the appearance of his father that Xiao Shaoyao has never seen since he can remember it.
The day after Li Xuanxuan woke up, she went to see it herself. Although she was as speechless as Xiao Banxia after reading it, she could actually understand Xiao Shaoyao. After all...
That's her father.
But……
No one knows better than her: everything in front of her is an illusion!
No one or ghost comes back at all!
Some...some...just the abnormality between her and the flowerpot...
However, even though she knew it was an illusion, Li Xuanxuan did not dare to expose it because...
Because since she came here, she has never seen a sincere smile like this on Shaoyao's face. Even though this smile is very subtle and obscure, in her eyes, it is extremely dazzling.
Li Xuanxuan was silent.
She didn't know what to do, so she just let it go.
Because of this, whenever Xiao Shaoyao passed by, she would always follow behind secretly.
She is worried...
Sooner or later Wu Lezi will collapse again...
It's just that Li Xuanxuan didn't expect that this day would come so quickly. In fact, it wasn't too soon. After all, it had already been more than a month.
The sounds of "ping ping ping pong" kept coming, and Li Xuanxuan didn't dare to think any more. She hurriedly appeared and wanted to take Xiao Shaoyao away, but she didn't expect that Xiao Shaoyao couldn't see her! Even! She couldn't touch Xiao Shaoyao anymore!
At this moment, Li Xuanxuan felt cold all over.
Wu Luozi's irritable voice became more and more shrill, and he destroyed almost everything in the darkroom, leaving only the table with the memorial tablet and the flower pot with the seeds of fairy grass buried on the table.
Time passes bit by bit.
Li Xuanxuan knew very well: before long, Wu Luozi's spiritual power would spread out of control again, and then both she and Xiao Shaoyao would be affected and injured...
This time, will anyone save them?
Li Xuanxuan doesn't know.
All she knew was that her hand was slowly approaching the flowerpot...
Exactly the same as last time, before she could get completely close, the flowerpot automatically moved closer to her palm.
