Xiao Mian stroked her smooth cheek, moved forward slightly, and pressed his lips against her cheek where the scar no longer existed.
Leng Mushi: “!”
"Are those things you said... all true?" Xiao Mian asked her, almost nose to nose.
Leng Mushi couldn't even finish a sentence: "W-what, what?"
"It hurts so much." Xiao Mian said again.
Leng Mushi was almost driven crazy by him. Just as she was about to stand up, Xiao Mian pressed down on the back of her neck and blocked her lips without warning.
After tossing and turning for a while, he bit her lower lip in revenge.
Leng Mushi's mind was buzzing, and after a moment's reaction, she finally understood what was going on -
Xiao Mian's hot breathing and trembling lips, every time he tossed and turned, made Leng Mushi realize very clearly that things were out of control!
He even tried to tease Leng Mushi's tongue.
Leng Mushi felt like she was stabbed. She pushed Xiao Mian away by the head, broke free from his arms, crawled up, grabbed the rules and manual in the bushes, and ran towards the Cangsheng Courtyard.
"It's no use chewing me even if you feel sorry for me, just chew the grass!"
Leng Mushi ran faster than a dog chasing her, but for some reason her knees became weaker and weaker as she ran, as if they had no bones at all and were filled with two balls of cotton instead.
She was about to kneel on the ground, feeling dizzy and having difficulty breathing, and she staggered along the stone steps, holding on to the law.
Seeing that the gate of Cangshengyuan was just around the corner, she took out the jade pendant and sent it towards the barrier, and the barrier opened... She finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell at the gate of Cangshengyuan.
The world was spinning in front of her eyes. Leng Mushi pinched her thigh to keep herself awake. She was extremely confused. Xiao Mian just gave her a kiss, was it necessary to do this
Could it be the special properties of the new elixir? Even those close to it can be affected
"Ah... I feel dizzy," she muttered in a low voice, regretting that she shouldn't have gone out with Fanlian because of the noise...
She closed her eyes and saw the red snake opening its mouth wide towards her head and lowering its head -
Leng Mushi couldn't even move a finger. She thought she was doomed. She would definitely be swallowed by the red snake this time. This beast had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Xiao Mian was indeed a troublemaker...
She didn't know that after she ran away, Xiao Mian, the evil spirit, got up in pain and clarity, stumbled and chased after her in panic, but could not find any trace of her. She ran too fast, and because of the painful effects of the medicine, Xiao Mian gritted his teeth and returned to his yard.
The red snake bit Leng Mushi's shoulder and dragged her into the Cangsheng Courtyard. However, it did not swallow her, nor did it spit venom at her. Instead, it coiled her under its body.
This was a protective posture. The red snake usually chased her, but tonight it blocked the attacks of the vengeful demon spider and the poisonous flame beast that was resentful for having its blood taken for her.
The red snake was originally a cold-blooded demonic snake, but it was also grateful to Leng Mushi for stopping Hua Yanyue from taking its gallbladder. Leng Mushi got a piece of thin bamboo tube and poked it into the body of the red snake, which was drugged and unable to move, and only took some of its bile. It was painful, but it saved its life.
In this world, kindness may not bring equivalent returns, but it will always bring unexpected gifts to people.
When Leng Mushi woke up again, she was lying on a small bed in the cellar of Cangsheng Courtyard. Hua Yanyue was rarely refining pills. Instead, she looked at her solemnly and slowly injected spiritual power into her body.
"Master, did you dig me out from the belly of the red snake..." Leng Mushi guessed based on her last memory and said weakly, "Thank you, Master..."
"No, it was pulled out from the belly of the red snake. The beast is grateful for your life-saving grace and is protecting you."
Hua Yanyue paused, withdrew her hand that was transmitting spiritual power to Leng Mushi, turned around and went to the top of the medicine shelf, and took out another Rejuvenating Pill.
"That beast is just like your brother Xiao, grateful for your life-saving grace and protecting you." Hua Yanyue said, "The Rejuvenating Pill went into your stomach, but you didn't run back quickly and were still hanging around outside. If it weren't for the Red Snake protecting you last night, you would have been strangled to death by the Demon Spider even if you weren't eaten by the Poison Flame Beast, or at worst, you would have had your eyes pecked out by the Thousand-Eyed Demon Eagle."
Leng Mushi was confused: "I didn't take the rejuvenation pill, last night..."
She paused suddenly, remembering the pastry Xiao Mian had given her.
Why
for…
Leng Mushi's face was filled with rage when she thought of Xiao Mian's unusual behavior last night.
Hua Yanyue frowned. She was born to be very difficult to deal with, and now she showed a very fierce expression, which was even more frightening: "You were drugged, don't you know? I have been teaching you for so long, but you have learned nothing from me, right?!"
Leng Mushi narrowed her eyes because of her yelling. If it were any other time, she would have run away. Hua Yanyue never gave any warning when she hit people. But now she was lying on the bed, feeling very dizzy. She felt dizzy even when she blinked. She couldn't move at all and could only grit her teeth and endure it.
It was her fault that she had no defense against Xiao Mian at all. She always thought he was stupid.
But the point now is not that, but something else.
Hua Yanyue didn't hit her after all, she just made gestures to scare her.
Leng Mushi asked Hua Yanyue: "Master, are you sure that the poisonous flame beast has no aphrodisiac effect?"
"Oh, don't doubt it. I left the pills for you even though my face is covered with poison spots. It's because I like you." Hua Yanyue saw through her thoughts and said with a sigh, "These young brats have useless brains, filled with bullshit love..."
It was the same with Xuan Zhu back then, and it is the same with Xiao Mian now.
Thinking of Xuanzhu, the smile on Hua Yanyue's face faded.
After a moment, she stuffed another Rejuvenating Pill into Leng Mushi's mouth while she was looking at him in disbelief. "It's unbelievable, right? I was the same at first."
"But since he is willing to give you such a good pill, don't waste it. Eat another one and cleanse your spiritual roots at the same time." Hua Yanyue said, "Originally I wanted to wait until your spiritual roots were tempered by other pills to become tougher before cleaning them, but I didn't expect your brother Xiao to be so anxious..."
Leng Mushi was a little confused, but Fazhi was not around and Fenlian was nowhere to be found. She didn't know who to tell and was shocked alone.
It’s true that Xiao Mian likes her.
Although Leng Mushi suspected that Xiao Mian was stupid because of the pills she fed him, or that the poisonous flame beast did have an aphrodisiac effect... that was not right. Xiao Mian left the Rejuvenating Pill and wrapped it in pastries for her to eat before she took the pill with the modified formula.
In other words... it wasn't the drugs that caused him, he was really made stupid by the pills she fed him.
Otherwise, who would be tortured by someone and still like that person
Thinking of how Xiao Mian kissed her last night... Leng Mushi closed her eyes with a distorted expression.
What a mess, he and Leng Tianyin are a couple, this is just a small, controllable accident.
Leng Mushi took the second rejuvenating pill, and then lay in bed for a whole day and night. Finally, she stopped feeling dizzy, but she was sweating a lot and felt sticky. She went to wash up as soon as she got up.
Apart from refining pills, the master and disciple basically did not use spiritual power, so they did not use cleansing techniques. They bathed in the medicinal pool prepared by Hua Yanyue in the backyard.
She soaked in the water, with only a pair of eyes showing. She slapped away a demon spider that tried to bite her. She sighed comfortably in the water... and a string of bubbles floated up.
"Xiao Mian is here to see you." Hua Yanyue's voice suddenly sounded in her ears, it was a telepathic message.
Leng Mushi could hear it clearly even though her ears were submerged in the water. She gasped, choked on the water, and then lay down on the edge of the pool, coughing violently.
What should I do? What should I do!
Leng Mushi was like a donkey pulling a millstone, anxiously circling in the pool.
"Xiao Mian is still calling my soul, go and get him away quickly, and stay away from me when talking about love!" Hua Yanyue growled angrily.
Leng Mushi had already made up her mind in this short period of time.
He said quickly, "I won't go. Master, why don't you cut off the sense of the barrier? He can't get in, and I don't want to see him."
Hua Yanyue was silent for a moment, then said, "Eh?" "You don't want to see him?"
"Aren't you in love with him?" Hua Yanyue said, "He's so good to you, and he's stupid enough to test the medicine for you. This is almost the same as what people in the mortal world call drinking poison with a smile. He's also handsome, and he's the favorite disciple of the fifth junior brother. His water spirit root is very pure. Maybe he will be the next elder in the future. Men like him are rare."
It was one when Xuanzhu was here. Even if he came back now, Hua Yanyue... probably wouldn't agree to him.
It's not even because the idea of a master-disciple relationship is shocking, but because love is not something she is born with.
Leng Mushi thought that the situation was too complicated to explain. She could get involved with anyone in the world except Xiao Mian.
"Hey, it's not that good," Leng Mushi said, "He's not smart, Master, don't you think? I've drugged him so many times that he's half dead, and he still likes me. Maybe he has some ulterior motive and wants to take revenge on me."
Hua Yanyue was speechless for a moment, and also felt that it made sense.
The more they get along with each other, the more they feel that they are destined to be master and disciple. After all, there is no one else in the world who can believe in each other's words as much as they do.
"That's true," Hua Yanyue said, "This kid is indeed not right. Maybe he has some special hobbies. You don't know that many immortals in the cultivation world are very playful. I'll tell you in detail when I have time."
"Then what should we do with him?" Hua Yanyue asked finally.
Leng Mushi lay on the edge of the pool, said firmly, "Master, don't worry, I don't like messy people, I don't plan to find a man who will delay my work."
"What's the point of talking about love? Isn't it fun to make pills? Men will only affect the quality of my pills and the speed of opening the furnace!"
Hua Yanyue nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and then said, "Then I can drive him away."
As soon as she finished speaking, fierce sharpness infused into the barrier. Hua Yanyue seldom used spiritual power techniques except for refining pills, but as the second elder, she had trained all of her junior brothers to be what they are now, which showed that her techniques should not be underestimated.
The exploding spiritual power quickly moved over the runes of the barrier like a golden dragon rising into the sky. Hua Yanyue was like an old mother who was trying to drive away a bad man for her daughter. This time, she used the spiritual power she usually used to refine the elixir and open the furnace.
Xiao Mian, who was outside the barrier, was completely unprepared and was suddenly blown away by the strong light that burst out from the barrier.
The author has something to say: Leng Mushi: I’m sorry, brother (Bow.
