After eating, Ye Xiaochuan said to Qin's girlfriend: "My dearest friend, I will be away for two days recently."
Qin's girlfriend was startled and said, "You want to leave?"
Ye Xiaochuan nodded slightly and said: "He has already half-finished the things he told the old naughty boy. I have to go and have a look. I will be back in three days at most."
Qin Guichen said softly: "Is it dangerous?"
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and said: "It's not dangerous."
Qin Guichen said nothing more.
Ye Xiaochuan took out an ancient book with no words on the cover from his arms and threw it to Dugu Changfeng.
Dugu Changfeng said: "Uncle Ye, what is this?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "This is a magic circle secret book given to me by a senior master. That old man studied magic circles all his life and made great achievements in this way. There are only one or two people in the world who can compare with him.
This book records the old man’s lifelong experience in formations. Take a look first. When I come back in three days, you have to tell the essence of the first formation in the book. If you can’t tell me, I won’t know how to do it in the future.
I’ll teach you again.”
Dugu Changfeng opened the ancient book and found that it was full of strange lines and some words that he did not recognize.
He shouted: "It's not fair, I don't know many words on it."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "Then let your auntie teach you.
I'll come back to check in three days."
Qin Guichen was once the commander-in-chief of the Taixu tribe. In this formation, Qin Guichen's attainments are quite high.
She was a little surprised.
This is a magic circle secret book in the human world, and Ye Xiaochuan admires it so much. It must be a powerful magic circle. Why would he let himself, a person with heavenly blood, read it?
Ye Xiaochuan seemed to notice Qin's surprise, but he continued to drink and eat without complaining.
After finishing the meal, Qin Guichen poured hot water and shouted: "It's been ten days, it's time to wash your feet again!"
"I'm coming!"
Dugu Changfeng hugged Aba and walked out of the room.
Now that Abba has a light magic circle on his jar, Dugu Changfeng holds him in his arms and runs like flying. It is no longer as strenuous as before.
No wonder Dugu Changfeng is so happy.
The desert is short of water. You can only wash your feet once every ten days and wash your feet once a month.
This made Dugu Changfeng, who used to bathe every day, very uncomfortable.
Qin Guichen is no longer the aloof Baihua Fairy.
She is more like an ordinary farm wife now.
After she took off Dugu Changfeng's shoes and socks, she saw that Ye Xiaochuan was still drinking, so she put a small basin of hot water at Ye Xiaochuan's feet.
Then he squatted down and took off Ye Xiaochuan's shoes and socks.
Ye Xiaochuan wanted to refuse, but when he lowered his head and saw Qin Guichen's head, he was stunned.
This long-lost scene made his heart skip a beat.
Eighteen years.
For him, eighteen years have passed.
The kind-hearted girl who once took good care of him, carried his feces and urine, washed his feet and bathed him, appeared before his eyes again.
"Xiaolou..." He couldn't help calling out the name of the girl who touched his heartstrings.
Then, he slowly stretched out his hand.
Qin Guichen was taking off Ye Xiaochuan's boots when she suddenly felt Ye Xiaochuan's palm touching the top of her head.
She was stunned and slowly raised her head.
What he saw was Ye Xiaochuan's eyes full of pity.
Ye Xiaochuan's hand gently slid from Qin Guichen's head to her cheek.
It was a rough palm full of calluses, gently sliding across Qin Guichen's cheek like mutton fat.
His movements were very light and gentle.
He said softly: "Small building."
The next moment, Ye Xiaochuan's expression suddenly changed, and his soft and pitiful eyes became complicated and painful. He saw clearly that the person in front of him was not Xiaolou, but Qin Guichen.
He slowly retracted his palm and said, "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now and thought you were another person."
Qin Guichen looked at him and said: "Xiaolou?
She's the old naughty boy's niece, your wife."
Ye Xiaochuan said nothing.
It seems to have been acknowledged.
Qin's girlfriend said: "I heard from the old naughty boy that it was her niece who rescued you from Cangyun Mountain and took care of you for nearly a year. You just thought of me as her. Did she often wash your feet before?
"
Ye Xiaochuan still didn't speak.
Qin Guichen said: "I thought you only had Yun Qiyou in your heart and would never fall in love with another woman in this life, but I didn't expect that girl from Xiaolou to walk into your heart.
This is normal. When you are at your weakest, she will accompany you and take care of you. Even if your heart is made of stone, it will be warmed by it.
I really want to meet her and see what kind of amazing woman she is."
Ye Xiaochuan finally spoke and said: "She is indeed a strange woman. In her body, all my evil will be purified.
If it weren't for her, maybe I would still be a disabled person who can only use a wheelchair.
My parents gave me the first life, Master gave me the second life, and Xiaolou gave me the third life."
Qin Guichen said: "Since she is so good, why don't you get together? I have been here for more than two months and I have never seen her come to see you."
Ye Xiaochuan whispered: "When I left her, I didn't want to involve her in my affairs.
I haven't seen her for eighteen years."
Qin Guichen lowered her head, gently took off Ye Xiaochuan's last stocking, lifted Ye Xiaochuan's feet, and placed them in the wooden basin.
She said softly: "Maybe she is not afraid of being implicated by you. Women understand women best. Women only want to be with the man they love. Even if they die, they will have no regrets."
Speaking of this, she said somewhat playfully: "Everyone thought that you and Yun Qi got together after a tryst.
Even Baili Yuan, Yang Yishuang and others who are interested in you have never doubted it.
Who would have thought that the wife you would eventually marry would turn out to be an unknown girl.
If Baili Yuan and other fairies knew about it, would they be so angry that they vomited blood?"
Late at night, Qin Guichen was lying on the bed, tossing and turning.
She couldn't sleep tonight.
When all I could think about was washing Ye Xiaochuan's feet, Ye Xiaochuan gently stroked his head and cheeks.
She had never seen such a tender side of Ye Xiaochuan.
But then the painful expression in Ye Xiaochuan's eyes was something she had never seen before.
She reached out and slowly touched the cheek that Ye Xiaochuan had touched previously.
He murmured: "Mom, I finally understand why you risked everything to be with dad back then.
People can control everything, but the only thing they cannot control is their own hearts."
Early the next morning, Qin Guichen, who had not slept all night, opened the door of the inn.
She didn't see her back on the dunes to the east.
Every morning when she opened the door, Ye Xiaochuan would sit on the sand dune and look in the direction of Yumen Pass.
Ye Xiaochuan was not here today, Qin Guichen knew that he had left.
But Qin Guichen was not worried.
Because this man said that he would definitely come back within three days at the latest.
