A white figure flashed past the horizon, landed on a small hill several miles away from Majestic Fox Mountain, the faint light flickered for a moment and dispersed, revealing the nine-tailed celestial fox Xiao Bai.
She gently placed Ghost Li's body on the ground and then carefully examined him, after confirming that he was not seriously injured, she heaved a sigh of relief and slowly stood up. Her white clothes had many burn marks, showing a withered yellow and even charred black colour, the most severe places, even a few small holes were burnt by the blazing fire, indistinctly her fair skin could be seen.
Just that Xiao Bai did not notice her body's condition, after calming herself down, she turned and stood up, gazed towards the direction where she came from.
In the distant horizon, a huge blazing fire pillar left an indelible mark in the air, even at such a distance, Xiao Bai could still feel the heat from the mountain breeze blowing towards her, and on that once Majestic Fox Mountain ruins, in the gradually calming lava torrent, the strange red light instead grew stronger, dancing wildly in the air, deep within it, indistinctly there seemed to be a blood red figure, laughing hysterically.
Xiao Bai silently gazed for a long time, the expression on her face did not show any hatred or sorrow, or it could be said, she was only indifferently looking at what seemed like the end of the world in the eyes of ordinary humans.
Behind, a soft rustling sound was heard, Xiao Bai turned around and was surprised, Ghost Li was still lying on the ground motionless but his clothes moved a few times and then a grey figure crawled out, it was the monkey Xiao Hui.
Xiao Bai looked at it in disbelief and then smiled, dusted her hands, opened her arms and said, "Little fellow, I didn't expect you to be so smart, quickly come over."
Xiao Hui crouched on Ghost Li's chest, glanced at its master, scratched its head, its three eyes looked around and then called out twice, jumped over and into Xiao Bai's arms.
A gentle smile appeared on Xiao Bai's face, carried Xiao Hui in her arms, used her hands to gently caress its head and fur, and then discovered that the monkey's body had quite a number of wounds, among which there were some that resisted, the flesh was torn and the injuries were not light.
"Ai …" Xiao Bai sighed softly, shook her head, carried Xiao Hui and walked to Ghost Li's side, found a tree root and sat down, placed Xiao Hui on the ground in front of her, took out a small jade bottle, with some pity in her mouth, said, "Xiao Hui, you followed this unlucky fellow, you really suffered a lot."
Xiao Hui's three eyes blinked at the same time and then shook its head incessantly, like a rattle drum, at the same time [Zi zi zi zi] called out, actually with some anger and annoyance, seemed to dislike Xiao Bai speaking ill of Ghost Li.
Xiao Bai rolled her eyes at the monkey, snappily said, "Yes, yes, I know, your master is the best."
Xiao Hui grinned, stretched out its hand and rubbed its head, looking rather happy.
Xiao Bai carried the monkey again, at the same time poured out a few green elixirs from the jade bottle, crushed them with her hands, turned them into fine green powder and then carefully sprinkled the powder on Xiao Hui's bleeding wounds. The elixir powder dissolved the moment it touched Xiao Hui's flesh, making a slight hissing sound, in a blink of an eye Xiao Hui's wounds had mostly stopped bleeding, obviously it was miraculous for external injuries.
Xiao Bai waited for a while, waiting for the pill powder to completely disappear into the wounds, after a moment of hesitation, she stretched out her hand and casually tore a few pieces of white cloth from her white clothes and carefully wrapped the wounds on monkey Xiao Hui's body. Throughout the process, Xiao Hui was very quiet, did not move an inch and allowed Xiao Bai to do as she pleased, probably understood Xiao Bai's good intentions.
Very soon, Xiao Bai had finished bandaging Xiao Hui's wounds, at a glance, Xiao Hui's chest, right arm, left leg and the back of its head, were all tied up with white cloth, looking like a heavily injured soldier but also looked comical.
Xiao Hui also seemed not used to it, kept looking at its own body, at the same time its arms moved restlessly, seemed to have the intention to look at its wounds, Xiao Bai glared at it, angrily said, "Don't move!"
Xiao Hui was startled, jumped back a step and then grinned, as expected it did not move again.
At this moment, Ghost Li's body suddenly moved, a low moan was heard, Xiao Bai and Xiao Hui looked over at the same time, after a moment, Xiao Bai softly sighed.
The man was obviously still in a daze, but he was still calling out that name in a low voice.
BiYao …
Xiao Bai stood up, unhurriedly walked a few steps to the open ground, gazed towards the direction of Majestic Fox Mountain, behind her, Xiao Hui scratched its head, followed over, grabbed Xiao Bai's clothes and climbed up, like usual, sat down on Xiao Bai's shoulder.
Xiao Bai's eyes flashed a faint sorrow, stretched out her hand and gently caressed Xiao Hui's body, in front of them, that Majestic Fox Mountain had forever disappeared from this world, leaving behind only a terrifying huge abyss, and the incessant flowing lava in the abyss, and that unbridled red blood light in the air.
"Xiao Hui, what do we do?" Xiao Bai softly said, although she was speaking to Xiao Hui but it seemed more like she was asking herself, her brows slightly frowned, as if there was an inextricable pity and sorrow, "BiYao is gone, I am really afraid he … will not be able to live on."
Xiao Hui did not speak, only stared blankly at Xiao Bai, its three eyes gently moving, not knowing if it understood Xiao Bai's words. Xiao Bai faintly smiled, with some bitterness, turned around, looked at that man who was still panting lightly but seemed to have lost all signs of life.
"What to do, looking at him like this, my heart also feels terrible …"
Xiao Hui suddenly called out, Xiao Bai listened for a while and then gave a bitter laugh, shook her head, carried Xiao Hui down from her shoulder, hugged it in her arms, softly said, "Go home? Sounds good but … "She glanced at Ghost Li, shook her head, softly said to Xiao Hui:
"Does he have a home?"
When the words were spoken, for some reason, Xiao Bai felt a pain in her heart, blankly turned her head and looked at Ghost Li's face, unknowingly since when, that man's sideburns, already had white hair.
Some people said, the vicissitudes of life can be thousands of years but there can also be vicissitudes in a blink of an eye, just that in this human life, who could say it clearly?
Xiao Bai was at a loss, could not help but sank into her thoughts, until a moment later, she was startled by Xiao Hui's movements and sounds. She shook her head, gave a bitter laugh, this time, it was for herself, so many years and yet she was still so sentimental.
Then, she turned to look at Xiao Hui, the grey monkey leapt down from her arms, stood on the ground and gesticulated, at times pointing to the north, calling incessantly.
Xiao Bai watched for a while, her brows gradually frowned, after a long while, she suddenly said, "You mean, we are going to his earliest home?"
Xiao Hui nodded repeatedly.
Xiao Bai looked at Ghost Li, saw that he still had a lifeless look, was silent for a moment, sighed and said, "We can only do this, let's go, anyway no matter what, it is better than staying here."
Xiao Hui grinned, Xiao Bai stretched out her hand, Xiao Hui leapt up, climbed up Xiao Bai's shoulder and sat down, Xiao Bai then walked towards Ghost Li, squatted down in front of him, quietly watched him for a while, softly said, "Alright, let's go home."
A white light, abruptly lit up from this small hill, charged up to the clouds, with some determination to break away from that terrible scene behind, without looking back, flew towards the north.
The mountain breeze, blew gently on the ground, there was still some heat in the middle, like a gentle hand, gently comforting the wounded land. And far away, that huge wound which was once Majestic Fox Mountain, was still shrouded in the red shadow, facing all living things in the world, shook incessantly, like a demonstration, also like a wild laugh.
Central Plains, Qing Yun Hill.
At the foot of Qing Yun Hill, it was still a scene of all living things growing and flourishing, everywhere was green grass and dense woods, deep in the woods, melodious bird cries were heard from time to time, although it did not have the celestial atmosphere of Qing Yun Hill seven peaks but it had more human warmth.
In a stretch of knee-high dense weeds, dilapidated fences and broken walls quietly stood there, this was once a small village called 'Grasstemple Village' but now it had changed with the passage of time.
A breeze blew over, the green grass swayed, carrying some grassy fragrance.
The white light slowly descended from the horizon, before Xiao Bai could steady herself, Xiao Hui had already impatiently jumped down from her shoulder, rolled a few times in the weeds, calling out in joy, looking extremely excited and happy.
Xiao Bai's lips revealed a trace of smile and then carefully supported Ghost Li, leaned against a broken wall and sat down. Right now, Ghost Li had already awoken from his coma, but looking from the side, he looked even worse than before when he fainted.
His face was extremely pale, and there was almost no trace of blood. His eyes were open, but they were empty and without any expression. They did not move, nor did they blink. His entire body was filled with a deathly aura, and he looked more like a zombie than a living person.
Seeing Ghost Li like this, Xiao Bai's face revealed some anxiety, in fact, on the way back to Grasstemple Village a few days ago, Ghost Li had already awoken from his coma but from the moment he woke up, he had always been like this, never changed, no matter how Xiao Bai thought of all kinds of methods, tried her best to persuade him, it was still to no avail.
Xiao Bai sometimes even suspected, her numerous gentle and considerate words of advice, did not even reach Ghost Li's ears.
Even though she had some understanding but Xiao Bai still did not expect, BiYao's departure would cause such great harm to Ghost Li, besides sighing, she was also helpless, even if she was a nine-tailed celestial fox, a thousand years of cultivation but towards this human's feelings, what could she do?
At the side, Xiao Hui hopped into the forest far away and after a while, ran back loudly, carrying a few wild fruits in its hands, ran to Ghost Li and Xiao Bai, [Zi zi] called out and passed it to them. Seemed like it was very familiar with the surroundings, Xiao Bai turned and glanced at the grey monkey, sighed, took a wild fruit from Xiao Hui, smiled bitterly at it, said, "Xiao Hui ah, you are still the best, always happy all day long, if your master is like you, then …"
She gently shook her head and didn't say anything else. She put the wild fruit in her mouth and took a bite. The juice was quite sweet and delicious.
Xiao Hui grinned at Xiao Bai, again carried the wild fruit to Ghost Li but Ghost Li was still the same, Xiao Hui waited for a while, seemed to know that Ghost Li would not eat, shrugged its shoulders, placed the wild fruits on the ground and then grabbed a fruit with each hand, sat down beside Ghost Li, opened its mouth and started chewing.
It was afternoon, two people and one monkey in this dilapidated village ruins, sat quietly like that, Xiao Bai did not speak again, Ghost Li was still the same, naturally would not make a sound, as for Xiao Hui, after eating a number of wild fruits, leaned its head on Ghost Li's thigh, spread its limbs and fell asleep.
Time, unknowingly and quietly flowed past, the scenery in the sky kept changing, in the azure blue sky, white clouds drifted, one after another, a breeze blew past, green grasses made rustling sounds, rustling clothes and hair, with some laziness.
The sun went to the west, the sky also gradually darkened.
Night fell, a round of bright moon had just appeared, still hanging in the far eastern sky, a few stars in the sky had already started to blink, watching this another night in the mortal world.
Xiao Hui's mouth made a few low murmurs, turned over and continued to sleep soundly, in its dreams, its face seemed to still carry a smile, not sure if it was because it always easily forgot its worries and sorrows, only remembering happy things?
Under the faint moonlight, Xiao Bai quietly stood up, she raised her head and stared at the moon in the sky, as if thinking about something, after a long time, she turned her head and looked at that still motionless figure that had already merged into the darkness.
She softly sighed and walked into the distance. The night breeze blew gently and her white robes fluttered in the wind. She walked alone under the moonlight. Her voluptuous and beautiful figure was like a beautiful silhouette from ancient times as she floated away.
This night, the moonlight was especially bright …
Qing Yun Hill Small Bamboo Valley, Lu XueQi sat alone in front of the window, her clothes like snow, clear like frost, reflecting her beautiful face, radiating brilliance. The moonlight, spilled down from the sky, landed on her body at the window, like water ripples.
Unsure how many nights had it been, she used to quietly sit like this by the window, watching the stars and moon in the night sky.
The clear light shone on the lonely shadow,
Reflecting the cold moonlight.
Far away, sounds of bamboo rustling indistinctly came, that was the mountain breeze blowing past the bamboo forest on Small Bamboo Valley, under the moonlight, the thin breeze also blew past here, quietly blew into the window, sweeping up a small corner of her clothes.
TianYa, quietly leaning beside the window, like its beautiful owner, bathed in the clear cold moonlight, watching the horizon.
The moon, slowly moved up to the sky, Lu XueQi quietly watched, between her brows, lightly locked a faint yearning sorrow.
"Are you still well?"
The almost inaudible whisper, softly muttered, the gentle moonlight, did not even cause the slightest ripple, still quietly sprinkling.
The yearning on her beautiful face, seemed to deepen a little.
