Chapter 285: I am most afraid that you will suddenly dissipate into a bubble one day
After resting for a while and eating some snacks, Cheng Muyan felt like she was resurrected with full blood.
After driving away Lan Wenqian, Jin Qiu and others one by one, Cheng Muyan returned to the desk and sat down. It was still early, so it was not too late to refine a few more talismans before going to the Tufu to see Qing Huan.
Thinking of this, Cheng Muyan's eyes blurred unconsciously for a moment, and the ink dots on the paper smudged into the appearance of water droplets.
Her wrist trembled slightly. Looking at the discarded paper, Cheng Muyan frowned and moved the discarded paper away from her face. She sighed secretly in her heart, cleared her thoughts, and concentrated on the tip of the pen. Her wrist was as steady as a rock, and the pen was written
Flowers.
After a while, Cheng Muyan looked at the successfully condensed talisman, skimmed the tip of his pen and placed it on the inkstone.
Folding it lightly with his fingertips, he skillfully picked up the paper and folded it into a triangular shape. After folding it, he placed it on the other side and started writing characters again.
It wasn't until after a few times that my body couldn't hold it any longer that I put down the pen, rubbed my wrists, and looked at the flowerpot on the window sill in a daze, not knowing what I was thinking, or maybe I was thinking nothing at all.
However, this mere moment of tranquility was also punctuated by intervals. Cheng Muyan had done this many times, and naturally he had mastered the timing.
…
Jin Qiu silently stood by the door holding a pot of scented tea. No matter how many times she bumped into her, she always felt that the fifth lady was incomparably far away from her at this moment, as if the slightest sound could scare people away, like a tail.
Like a butterfly that only stays on a branch for a short time, it will fly away without looking back at the slightest disturbance.
It wasn't until he saw that the young lady's eyes were bright again and her face was no longer blank that Jin Qiu's eyes darkened, she pursed her lips tightly and gently brought the scented tea into the room.
"Here you come? The food you just ate was a bit spicy and salty. Pour me a cup, sister Jinqiu?" The little girl's eyes were bright and clear, and she could almost see her own shadow in the little girl's round and beautiful eyes.
Jin Qiu only saw the shadow of the little man inside and rolled his eyes. He tried his best to restrain the choking and trembling when speaking. His face seemed to have not noticed anything at all, and he just said carelessly: "If you know it's spicy, you know it's salty."
Okay, let’s see if you’re still greedy next time. I drank too much scented tea and slept soundly in bed at night to see if your thin skin can stand the shame.”
Cheng Muyan: "!!!"
Cheng Muyan was almost so shocked by Jin Qiu's words that she choked on the scented tea she had just swallowed and spit it out of her nose. She coughed several times to stop the itching in her throat, but the coughing made her throat a little sore.
"You can choke even if you drink tea. Do you still think what I said is wrong?" Jin Qiu glanced at her, took a clean handkerchief and carefully tucked Cheng Muyan's mouth and chin clean. He saw in his heart that the little girl was behaving like a child.
She looks lively, but she is much more comfortable. A little girl has to look like a little girl. Why do you act so mature?
"What I'm talking about is, it's not because of what you said before." Cheng Muyan was simply shocked that this little girl had learned to rake after just a few days by his side. Thinking of what Jin Qiu said before, she was quite angry.
He frowned unfairly and said very plausibly, "I am no longer a child, how can I still drown in the bed? And even if I want to drown, I will wake up and drown, okay! It's not me who matters.
I won’t drown at all!”
Looking at Jin Qiu's half-smiling expression, Cheng Muyan once again sternly and solemnly clears up his reputation: "How could I be so oblivious? I was almost led astray by you, huh!"
The little girl arrogantly put her head aside, not letting Jin Qiu touch her. Jin Qiu didn't force her. She put away the handkerchief and folded it aside. She took a beautiful little porcelain cup and poured a cup of tea for the little girl. She held her hands like apologies.
He held it in front of the little girl, but his eyes were teasing: "Okay, okay, whatever the lady says, you can do it. Anyway, you are the lady, and the lady is the biggest."
When the little girl saw that the little maid had admitted her mistake, she stopped making excuses. The adults forgave her regardless of the villain's fault. She hummed softly and took the apology tea from the little maid's hand.
However, Jin Qiu's eyes were warmed by a soft moan from the delicate little girl, and her heart was sour and sweet at the same time. If she hadn't blinked her eyes quickly a few times, she might have shed tears.
With his heart racing, he could no longer think of teasing the little girl. After saying goodbye in a hurry, he put the handkerchief and porcelain cup on the plate and took it away.
But he turned his back on people and entered a deserted path where no one usually comes. He walked into the flower forest with his head covered and his eyes swollen. He put the plate next to him and sat down with his knees in his arms and his head buried in his arms.
Her shoulders were trembling and her body was trembling silently. There was no one here anymore. Jin Qiu knew that she could vent and cry without restraint. Her secret base here had never been discovered before.
Jin Qiu didn't know why she was so sad. She was so sad that tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably. She was so sad that her whole body became weak and she almost fell to the ground. But the tearing pain in her heart let Jin Qiu know that she was sad, and for whom.
Sad, for whom are you crying... The delicate appearance of the little girl slowly emerged in Jin Qiu's mind.
Thinking of this, Jin Qiu bit her lip hard to avoid sobbing in pain.
He simply let go of his knees and lay on his back on the ground covered with flowers and leaves. With blurred eyes, he looked at the dim light leaking in between the mottled flowers and leaves. It felt like the last light in hell, and he longed for the light to fall on him.
, and are afraid of the light but will burn themselves.
Jin Qiu slowly closed her eyelids in the watery field of vision, and her ears were so silent that it felt like the whole world was empty, and it was like... returning to the quiet and stuffy underground.
…
Cheng Muyan was embarrassed by Jin Qiu's words. She didn't notice the difference in the expressions of the little sisters beside her. She drank a cup of scented tea obediently. Because her mouth was really dry, she made herself a cup of tea.
over.
After finishing the drink, I looked at the dark sky outside the door, like the sky before a storm. I stretched my arms silently, then slowly walked to the desk and sat down.
He lifted up his sleeve and brought up the pen. The tip of the pen applied thick and suitable ink. He opened a blank piece of paper and the pen moved swiftly. He finished the sketch steadily and slowly without making any mistakes.
I saw the golden light of the runes on the paper flashing away, and there was a faint flow of spiritual power in the runes, and it was done!
This is really not a job for humans!
It would be great if Qingjiu or 101 were here. Maybe they could find out which copier or printer they were, and then use the cultivator's method to improve the combination a little bit. Maybe they could mass-produce it without having to draw the symbols themselves.
