The sky was covered with dark clouds.
The previous heavy rain lasted for a while, and by the time the two came out from the bottom of the lake in the afternoon, the rain had stopped long ago.
But judging from the situation, it’s not over yet.
The ground was full of mud.
When Luo Qingzhou returned to Meixiang Garden, Xiaodie and Qiu'er were in the courtyard, carefully cleaning up the petals and leaves that had been blown down by the heavy rain.
Luo Qingzhou greeted the two of them, gave some instructions, and returned to the house.
He took off his clothes, revealing the wound on his back.
He took out the trauma medicine from the storage bag, faced the second young lady's dressing mirror in the room, tilted his head, and carefully applied it on the wound.
"hiss-"
Although it was mild, the pain was still unbearable.
There were two wounds, and the bones inside could almost be seen. If his skin membrane and muscles had not been cultivated to the level of a martial artist, it would have been much worse.
Just as he was enduring the pain and applying the ointment with difficulty, Qiu'er's voice suddenly came from the yard: "Son-in-law, Sister Xiachan is here. Xiaodie and I are going to Xiaotao's place and will be back in the evening."
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment and put down the medicine bottle.
"Squeak..."
The door was pushed open.
Xia Chan changed into a light green dress and appeared at the door.
Luo Qingzhou was shirtless, not embarrassed at all, and looked at her in confusion, "Chanchan, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
Xia Chan didn't say anything. She bent down, silently took off her shoes, entered the room, closed the door, and then came behind him.
"Help you, apply the medicine."
She said softly.
Then he took out a porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and his eyes fell on the bloody and shocking wound behind him.
"Does it hurt?"
She said in a trembling voice.
Luo Qingzhou supported himself on the table with both hands, looked at her in the mirror and said, "It's okay, be gentle."
Xia Chan bit her lip, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look again. She stretched out her fingers, poured out some ointment, and then with trembling fingers, slowly applied it on the wounds.
Luo Qingzhou's arms were throbbing with veins, and he was shaking slightly in pain. He asked, "Chanchan, where did you get this medicine from?"
Xia Chan didn't reply and continued to apply the ointment for him silently.
Luo Qingzhou raised his head and looked at her in the mirror. Unknowingly, the girl behind him had tears all over her face.
"Chanchan, uncle is fine..."
Luo Qingzhou's face turned pale and his voice trembled.
Xia Chan still didn't say anything. After applying the ointment for him, she took out the gauze and gently bandaged it.
Luo Qingzhou was sweating profusely from the pain and sat down on the stool.
A hint of coolness came from the hot and painful wound, and the coolness flowed into the body, making it very comfortable.
I don’t know if it was because of the effect of the medicine or because he was too tired, but he lay on the table for a while and fell asleep unknowingly.
Xia Chan didn't disturb him. She went over to get the clothes and gently put them on him.
Then he stood by and looked at him silently.
Until dark.
When Luo Qingzhou woke up, the moon outside had already risen.
After a while, Xiaodie and Qiu'er came back.
Luo Qingzhou had a simple dinner, did not take a shower, and did not let the two little girls serve him. He returned to his room and lay on the bed.
Then, his soul left his body.
I can no longer feel the pain in my body.
But now the soul still needs to rely on the body, so it is a little weaker than before.
He flew across the rooftops and into the air.
At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky. The lightning seemed far away, but Luo Qingzhou's soul suddenly felt a terrible pressure coming towards him. His body trembled and became weak. He fell down in a hurry and returned to the house, his soul returning to his body.
He almost forgot that today was a rainy day and there might be thunder at night.
With his current spiritual strength, going out in this kind of weather would be tantamount to seeking death. If he were hit by lightning, his soul would be shattered on the spot.
After thinking for a while, he took out the communication certificate from the storage bag. When he was about to send a message to remind them to be careful of thunder and lightning tonight, he found that it had received two messages at some point, one from each person.
Xiaoyue: Brother, I heard that there will be heavy rain and thunder in Mo City tonight. You can't go out tonight. Be careful of being struck by lightning. If something happens to you, I will cry to death.
Stranger: It thunders tonight.
It turned out to be Sister Yue!
The cold tone of these four words was about to overflow from the message.
Luo Qingzhou thought about it and replied one by one.
Thank you for your concern, if your sister was struck by lightning, your brother would cry to death.
What's wrong with thunder? Who are you? I don't want to chat with you anymore. I have to go out tonight.
After a while.
Xiaoyue replied: Brother, I never lie, I won't be struck by lightning, don't worry.
Luo Qingzhou did not reply to her.
After a long time, the stranger still didn't reply to the message.
Luo Qingzhou pondered for a moment, then sent another message: Sister Yue, I'm already at Yuanyang Tower, where are you? Haven't you come yet
After waiting for a long time, still no one replied.
at the same time.
On the eaves of Yuanyang Tower, the moon-white figure had been standing there for an unknown period of time.
Occasionally, lightning flashed across the night sky and thunder roared.
But she still stood there, motionless, as if she hadn't heard anything.
“Boom!”
Not long after, another muffled thunder sounded.
Then, "crash", the heavy rain that had been accumulating for half a day finally fell again.
Luo Qingzhou got up from the bed and looked outside.
It was raining heavily, and the bluestone slabs outside were crackling.
“Boom!”
There was continuous lightning and thunder.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something. He immediately got dressed, got out of bed, opened the door, and walked out.
From the next room, the voices of Xiaodie and Qiu'er could be heard.
"Sister Qiu'er, I'm afraid..."
"Don't be afraid, hold me tight, I'm here."
"Ah, Sister Qiu'er, why are you not wearing any clothes?"
"You're not wearing any either?"
"… "
Luo Qingzhou didn't listen any more. He silently took the oil-paper umbrella from the corner and quietly walked out the door.
There was thunder outside and heavy rain.
Water splashed and crackled on the bluestone slabs.
Luo Qingzhou held an umbrella and walked in the rain, and soon arrived outside the gate of Lingchan Moon Palace.
He raised his hand, ready to knock.
After thinking about it, he retracted his hand, took a few steps back, and with a "whoosh", he jumped directly from the outside of the courtyard wall.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
Just before I landed, I suddenly felt a chill.
However, the chill disappeared in an instant.
“Boom!”
Another thunder roared.
Lightning flashed across the sky, lighting up the entire night.
The power of nature makes all living things on the earth terrified.
Luo Qingzhou held an umbrella, stepped on the bluestone slabs covered with rain, walked quickly under the eaves, shook off the rain on the umbrella, and put it aside.
He walked to the door and was about to raise his hand to knock, but suddenly found that the door was ajar.
"Squeak..."
He pushed lightly and the door opened.
The room was silent and empty.
He was stunned for a moment, walked in and closed the door again.
Then, he came to Xia Chan's room and pushed the door gently. The door was ajar and opened all at once.
He hesitated at the door before walking in.
There was a red candle burning on the candlestick in the room.
In the dim light, the room was silent. A frail figure was sitting quietly on the bed, hugging her knees, tightly holding her sword in her hand, staring at him blankly.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, and said awkwardly: "Chanchan, I was going to knock on the door, but the door was not closed, so I just came in directly."
Xia Chan looked at him quietly without saying anything.
Luo Qingzhou walked over and explained, "I saw a loud thunder outside and was afraid that you would be scared, so I came to see you and thank you. Your trauma medicine is very effective. I can hardly feel the pain in my back now. Thank you."
Xia Chan still didn't speak.
Luo Qingzhou said softly: "Chanchan, do you want your uncle to accompany you?"
Xia Chan finally spoke, whispering, "Accompany, Bailing."
Luo Qingzhou immediately said: "That girl doesn't need to be accompanied, she is not afraid of thunder. And the son-in-law likes to accompany you, not her."
Xia Chan stared at him for a while and said, "Where are my shoes and socks?"
Luo Qingzhou was stunned: "What shoes and socks?"
Xia Chan looked at him and said nothing more.
Luo Qingzhou looked down at the bed, bent down and picked up her shoes, and said, "Chanchan, aren't these your shoes? Aren't those your socks?"
After saying that, she put the shoes back, picked up another pair of shoes next to her and said, "Chanchan, here is another pair of shoes. These shoes are pink and so cute, just like you."
Xia Chan lowered her head slightly, and the fingers holding the sword moved quietly downwards.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smelled a familiar smell. He lowered his head to look at the shoes in his hand, put them under his nose and sniffed them, then put them back on the ground and said calmly: "Chanchan, since you are not afraid, then the uncle will leave. By the way, if Bailing comes back, tell her that the uncle misses her, she is also very cute."
After saying that, he waved and left.
After leaving the room, he suddenly quickened his pace, picked up an umbrella from the corridor, and ran out with a "whoosh".
Listening to the footsteps outside stepping on the rain and running out of the door, a head suddenly popped out from under the bed.
"Chanchan! My uncle is really a pervert! Not only did he take the opportunity to touch your shoes, he even sniffed my shoes!"
Xia Chan hugged her sword and knees, sitting there quietly. In the dim light, her eyes were filled with soft light.
Luo Qingzhou returned to the Plum Fragrance Garden holding an oil-paper umbrella. He glanced at the stockings and shoes drying under the eaves, walked over to measure them, thought for a moment, went in and knocked on the door, saying, "Xiaodie, Qiu'er, open the door."
The two little girls were playing naked in each other's arms. When they heard the noise, they were startled and hurriedly got up and put on their clothes.
Xiaodie ran over and opened the door.
Qiu'er also got out of bed.
The two little girls had rosy cheeks.
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the two of them, walked in directly, and said, "Where are the socks you made? Bring them here for me to see."
Qiu'er was stunned for a moment, then immediately went over to get a pair of semi-finished products and handed them to him.
Luo Qingzhou took it in his hand, looked at it for a while, and said: "Look here, the top of the sock can be made into a hollow lace. This one can be longer. Solid color is best. You can also embroider a few circles of stripes on the top..."
Xiaodie and Qiu'er listened to him talking and looked at each other in confusion.
After Luo Qingzhou finished speaking, he returned the socks to them and said, "The socks and shoes hanging outside in the corridor are the same size. Can you make two new pairs for each of us?"
Qiu'er and Xiaodie were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then nodded quickly.
Qiu Er asked, "When do you want it, Master?"
Luo Qingzhou thought for a moment and said, "After the autumn exam, I'll give you a few drawings tomorrow and you just have to follow them. Is it too late?"
Qiu Er nodded immediately and said, "Don't worry, Master, we will definitely help you get it done when the time comes."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at their chests again, walked out of the room and said, "Okay, you guys can rest now, don't worry about me."
The two of them stood in the room for a while, then looked at each other's chests.
They both got up in a hurry just now, and only wore a light veil, and had no time to put on their underwear, so...
"Xiaodie, my uncle seems to have seen..."
"Sister Qiu'er, it's okay. Sooner or later, my master will want to see you. Not only will he want to see you, he'll also want to touch you, hehe."
"… "
Luo Qingzhou returned to his room and lay down, unable to sleep.
There was a "boom" outside, and thunder sounded again.
At this moment, the communication token on his body suddenly vibrated again.
He took it out quickly.
The message from the stranger: There is a chance to advance tonight, if you dare to come
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment and looked up at the lightning that had just flashed outside the window.
