With the sound of rapid breathing, Sun Huo's heart was beating wildly and he suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that the scene just now was just a dream, and he had returned to the Li Mansion and was lying on the bed.
"Thank God, you finally woke up." Sun Huo rolled his eyes and saw Mu Xin, who was sitting on the side with a haggard face. He reached out and held a towel to wipe away the sweat on his head.
"I'm fine, thank you..." With a smile on his face, Sun Huo was about to use his strength to sit up as a habit, when a familiar sharp pain instantly spread throughout his body, blocking his words.
in the throat.
Mu Xin was not surprised at all by Sun Huo's gaffe. After wiping his face, he helped Sun Huo slowly sit up and put two pillows behind him so that he could lean on him more comfortably.<

"Did you just have a nightmare?" Mu Xin asked gently, looking carefully at Sun Huo's healthy complexion.
"Am I talking in my sleep?" Sun Huo was a little surprised, but did not respond directly.
"You called a name."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became depressing, and there was nothing to say between the two of them. So Mu Xin stood up and walked to the wooden table nearby, picked up the teapot and started pouring water.
Taking advantage of this gap, Sun Huo also forced himself not to think about the nightmare and conversation just now, and instead began to feel his physical condition. At the same time, he casually looked at the surrounding environment. It was still the same room, except that it was missing.
Even the scarred man who was drinking tea by the window has no idea where he is.
When the body is still, the wound will not be affected and cause severe pain. However, Sun Huo felt a sense of weakness and fatigue when he woke up this time, as if he had been lying in bed for a long time without moving.
"How long have I been asleep?" Sun Huo asked casually as he slowly moved his hands and feet to stretch his muscles.
"Seven days."
"What?!" Sun Huo suddenly raised his head, wondering if there was something wrong with his ears.
"You heard that right. You have slept for seven days and seven nights, until now." Mu Xin turned around with a teacup in hand and responded calmly.
Hearing the affirmative answer again, Sun Huo was shocked. Only now did he understand why Mu Xin looked haggard, and this was also why he felt weak.
"What about outside? What's going on in the city?" His thoughts were a little confused when Sun Huo suddenly remembered what he had done before falling asleep and asked hurriedly.
Mu Xin turned around and walked back, handing the teacup in his hand to Sun Huo.
"It's over. I brought back a small amount of food and grass according to your wish, and then asked them to arrange their own manpower to transport the rest. In addition, the Li family in Xianlai City also kept their promise, and even the other three families
After hearing the news, they even donated an additional thousand tons of food, which is now being transported into the city. In addition, they also allocated a group of people to help restore order and operation in the city."
"Actually, both Xiao Zhuang and Bai Zifeng came here quietly and wanted to visit you privately, but I blocked them back, saying that you suddenly had an epiphany and were in retreat. The favor you owe this time is not small, and you will have to pay it back in the future.
We have to find another way to settle the matter. They are all cultivating families that still have a certain amount of power, so it’s better not to offend them easily."
Watching Sun Huo take the cup and take a sip, Mu Xin walked over and poured another cup before giving it to him.
Sun Huo was quite surprised by this secret thing that happened in private, but he also knew it well. It was a helpless move to raise food from Xianlai City this time. The Xiao family and the Bai family would definitely not let this person take the initiative to send it to their door.
They will have the opportunity to make friends and get closer. Although Mu Xin's excuse for refusing guests is to protect himself, it has undoubtedly strengthened their determination to increase investment to achieve their goals. It will be a blessing or a curse for the future.
Especially now that I am seriously injured and unable to recover, I don’t know if there will be any possibility of repayment in the future. Once I am found to have been deceived, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Sun Huo lost the desire to drink water and turned the teacup around in his hand.
Seeing Sun Huo's worried look, Mu Xin didn't understand his concerns. Originally, he shouldn't have spoken out about this matter at this time, but somehow he mentioned it just now, perhaps because he was still reluctant in his heart.
Acknowledge the reality before you.
I have never seen such a situation before. I don’t know how to start the treatment. I don’t dare to force him to wake up and cause another irreparable change. I am even more afraid that returning to the sect for help will leak the news. I have been guarding Sun Huo for these seven days, always paying attention to his breath.
and pulse, Mu Xin was so afraid that when he looked over, he would really sleep forever. He didn't care that he might lose his life, but if he failed Sun Huo's wish and had to drag Man
If the mortals of the city are buried with him, how can we meet each other underground.
In the oppressive silence, the sudden cooing sound was particularly clear. Meeting Mu Xin's surprised look, Sun Huo immediately lowered his head in embarrassment.
"It's too stuffy in this room. Now that you've woken up, why don't I go out with you for a walk and see what's going on with the city you fought so hard to protect, and get you some food by the way." He didn't give in.
Sun Huo was embarrassed for too long, and Mu Xin promptly suggested.
After hesitating for a while, Sun Huo still nodded in agreement. After all, the root of the problem lies with himself. He couldn't think of a way to solve it in a hurry and could only think about it in the long term. It shouldn't affect anything if he let go for a while now.
A moment later, in the low sky more than a hundred feet high in Greenstone City, Sun Huo, whose figure was hidden, was leaning on Mu Xin's shoulder with one arm, standing steadily on the banana leaf-shaped magic weapon and flying slowly.
I saw that although the fireworks below were no longer the same as before with people coming and going, but on the premise that they could basically fill their stomachs, every household could see people walking around and busy with daily chores, and it was no longer as helpless as before.
Sitting back and waiting for death in a lifeless manner.
Although most people still look very thin, they are not as sallow and skinny as before. I believe that after a period of full food and recuperation, they can return to normal.

Seeing that this once dying city was slowly recovering its vitality, Sun Huo gradually felt much better, and a sense of joy filled the air like a spring.
Just looking along like this, the two of them had unknowingly arrived at the top of one of the city gates. Here, Sun Huo saw the people lined up in several long and neat queues, leading one by one in an orderly manner.
=Get the day's rations. Although there were many people chatting and chatting with each other, there was no sign of complaint or confusion, and no one was seen walking back and forth to maintain order and scolding.
"This city has such a clean and orderly atmosphere, it's all thanks to you and Senior Xuan." As if sensing the doubts in Sun Huo's heart, Mu Xin explained in time before asking any questions.
"You saved the city, and the food and grass were raised by your kindness. Naturally, people should be grateful. However, when I urgently brought back a small amount of food for distribution that day, I still couldn't avoid some people who were extremely hungry, mentally ill, and had ulterior motives.
The looting caused trouble, and Li Yan couldn't suppress it even with his limited manpower. It was Senior Xuan who suddenly appeared with spiritual pressure to shock him, and even killed several people on the spot with thunderous means, and then he controlled the situation. Since then, the people in the city have
People gradually know that you gave them a new life, and there are irresistible immortal cultivators secretly controlling the order, so no one dares to cause trouble anymore, and this is what you see now."
Hearing that Mu Xin put most of the credit on himself, Sun Huo's face heated up slightly, and he was about to shirk away, but then he thought about it, he and he were the only ones here, and it would be a waste of time to explain, so he had to
He chuckled helplessly and turned his head away to hide his embarrassment.
"By the way, why didn't I feel that Senior Xuan was staying nearby? Or maybe he was just patrolling other city gates?" After looking around, Sun Huo asked casually.
"I don't know. In fact, apart from showing up that day, he has disappeared since then and has never returned to the Li Mansion. I have never received his contact information until now." Thinking back on the experiences of the past few days,
Mu Xin himself was a little strange. Although the task of monitoring Sun Huo this time was very relaxed, this situation of losing contact out of thin air was not the way a person in the dark cloud or even a monk should behave.
Suddenly, Mu Xin carefully asked another rather sensitive question.
"Xueyan, I see that you don't claim to be a noble and distant immortal master, but you are very close to mortals. Do you blame Senior Xuan for ruthlessly killing those people?"
The smile on Sun Huo's face froze.
After being silent for a while, he sighed softly. "According to expediency, how can I blame him? Besides, if I didn't take the lives of many people that day, who am I qualified to blame the person who caused all this?
If there is any retribution for my sin, I will accept it myself."
Hearing this, Mu Xin's eyes twitched twice. With a slight tilt of his head, he could see an unstoppable laceration on Sun Huo's neck protruding from the collar. It was particularly shocking at such a close distance.
"Is this retribution?" Mu Xin shouted silently in his heart.
Is the fairness between heaven and earth so cruel and ruthless? He is really unwilling to accept it. According to secular Buddhism, saving this city is obviously a greater merit than building a million-level pagoda, so why does Sun Huo have to suffer like this?
Suffer.
"Brother, take me there and have a look."
"Where did you say?" Mu Xin suddenly reacted and asked in surprise.
"Manzhong Hill."
Mu Xin's heart trembled, but he didn't expect Sun Huo to want to go back to the place where the nightmare began so soon.
Seeing that Mu Xin hesitated and made no move, Sun Huo stopped urging him. After a while, Mu Xin suddenly stamped his feet, and the magic weapon carried the two of them in a different direction and flew away.
