"It's okay. It's almost time to come in this time. You have to go through the poisonous fog forest when you go back. You need to conserve your strength to deal with the poisonous fog. There is no need to waste time here. Let's go back."
"But senior brother, are you here alone?"
It's not like the junior brothers don't trust him. Everyone believes in the strength of senior brother Wujiang.
I'm just afraid that he won't have anyone to keep him company.
"It's okay. It's convenient for me to move alone. I'll go see the demon clan and then go back." He lied. Buddhism cannot lie.
Can you still become a Buddha if you lie?
He didn't know, but at this moment, he just couldn't control what he said.
"Oh, okay! Let's go back first, senior brother, be careful!"
The few junior brothers did not doubt that he was there, and did not doubt Wujiang at all. Knowing that the senior brother was thinking about them, they all returned the same way.
After everyone left, Wujiang turned back to the reeds, picked up Hua Xi from the mud, and carried her into his big cloak.
He himself never noticed that the originally dust-free cassock was stained by mud.
At this moment, fate follows closely.
*****
A bonfire was lit in the cave, illuminating a warm light.
The ground was covered with thick hay, and the sleeping girl's face was no longer muddy and had been wiped clean.
The dirty coat was taken off, but Wujiang didn't dare to replace the clothes underneath. He could only put her next to the bonfire and dry them slowly.
But his hair and arms were all wiped carefully by him.
It was very warm next to the bonfire. He sat cross-legged next to her. He was meditating quietly and chanting sutras, but he involuntarily opened his eyes and looked at her absentmindedly.
It really has been two years, and she has changed a lot. Every part of her palm-sized face has been polished more delicately by the years.
The long eyelashes will tremble slightly after falling asleep.
I don’t know what I dreamed about, why did I still frown after falling asleep?
He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the center of his eyebrows. When he touched the delicate skin, his fingertips shrank, and then he still touched it lustfully.
If you have greed... can you still become a Buddha if you have greed?
It turns out that the past two years have not been forgotten at all, but the memory that was originally engraved on my heart has been obscured. In fact, it has not disappeared, it is just invisible.
Despite the wind and rain, we will eventually meet each other.
It is fate that I cannot forget you.
"Well..." The sleeping man suddenly sighed, and Wujiang quickly retracted his hand.
As if he had done something wrong, his heart was beating fast. Seeing the trembling eyelashes slowly opening, he quickly turned away and continued to meditate.
He was afraid that she would find out that he was obsessed with her.
Would she be unhappy if he didn't become a Buddha until then?
Hua Xi slowly opened her eyes, and her consciousness returned to her mind little by little. However, her eyes did not open, so they closed them painfully.
"Hiss..." Damn it, why does it hurt so much?
He raised his hands to cover his eyes, and then slowly opened them a crack. The pain felt as if he was about to be torn apart, and everything was pitch black.
Where is this? The surroundings are so warm, she hears the crackling sound of fire!
There was fire, so why couldn't she see it?
Her eyes just hurt, and the darkness made her swallow a mouthful of water in fear.
I immediately tasted the taste of mud in my mouth. Thinking of the disgusting taste before I fainted, I immediately started retching.
Wujiang immediately looked over and helped her up with both hands, making her retching twice.
