Ye Yunlan lowered her eyes and looked at the person in front of her.
The other party was sitting on the stone bed, with black hair hanging down at the waist, the upper body clothes had been removed, the wound on the chest was bandaged layer by layer, and the body line was smooth and vigorous.
It's just that the face of the other party is so ordinary that it is difficult to recognize when it is placed in a crowd. Only the eyes are narrow and long, and they show a bit of fierceness that is hard to hide.
He was noncommittal about the person calling himself "Gu Xuan", but said lightly: "You are seriously injured, you shouldn't get up and walk around, and you need to recuperate for two more days. After two days, with your physique, you should be able to move freely."
An ordinary cultivator with this injury will need at least ten days and a half of training, but the other party is sure that he will be able to move freely in just two days. Gu Xuan wonders if this person has already seen his origin, and he is silent for a while, saying: "Thank you for saving me. I. I… may I know your name?"
"Ye Yunlan."
Gu Xuan was slightly startled.
"Yunlan..." He murmured the name, with complicated emotions flashing across his eyes, just as he was about to speak, he heard Ye Yunlan say: "But when we meet by chance, just call me Daoist Ye."
"…Young Daoist." Gu Xuan pursed his lips and was a little dissatisfied with this unfamiliar name. Despite his current situation, he really has no right to say anything more.
Ye Yunlan took out a scarlet jade decree from his sleeve, leaned over slightly, and handed it to Gu Xuan, "This jade decree fell from you when you were rescued. Return it to you."
With his movements, the two of them got closer.
A few strands of long black hair slipped from his shoulders, his long eyelashes drooped like wings, and his face was indifferent like an ice stone, but there was still a beauty in the sky.
Gu Xuan suffocated and didn't even have time to pay attention to what Ye Yunlan handed over. He just thought, it was too similar.
Similar to his mother.
It's just that the lips of the person in front of him are thinner, the bridge of the nose is more straight, the eyes are narrower and longer, and the complexion is paler, so pale that it even reveals... morbid.
All these years... is he not doing well
Gu Xuan couldn't help thinking.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Ye Yunlan frowned slightly, "Friend Gu?"
Gu Xuan returned to his senses and took the Crimson Jade Token from the opponent's hand. This token is the identity token of the Royal Family of the Luminous Sun. It was made by the ancient chalcedony, but there is a deceptive formation on the token. He is not worried about Ye Yunlan. Guess who he is.
Just when he took the token, he touched the temperature of the opponent's fingertips like ice, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you practice ice-based exercises?"
Ye Yunlan: "Why do you ask that?"
Gu Xuan also knew that his question was very abrupt, but he was accustomed to it, he would not take it back as soon as he said it, and said, "The body temperature of ice-based practitioners is colder than ordinary people, and I just touched Daoyou Ye's hand like this, and I couldn't help it. I have this question."
Ye Yunlan said, "I haven't practiced any exercises, and I haven't cultivated to protect my body. But this winter, my body is naturally colder."
How could this person not cultivate to protect the body
At the beginning, the secret method only removed the ancient blood of this person, and did not abolish the spiritual roots of his meridians. With their family talent, even without the power of blood, it was easy to set foot on the road.
Gu Xuan just wanted to ask, but suddenly heard Ye Yunlan coughing in a low voice.
Then, he saw a young man in mysterious clothes striding over next to him.
The young man looked extremely young and handsome, with a pure white fox fur hanging on his arm, and said solemnly: "Master, although I have disposed of the heater here, but your body is afraid of the cold, you should put on the fox fur."
Gu Xuan frowned slightly.
Although he was seriously injured, with his perception that he transcended mortals, he didn't even notice the existence of this young man in the cave.
Ye Yunlan only gave a faint "um", but did not immediately pick up the fox fur.
Seeing this, the young man raised his eyebrows and called out "Master".
There was a little connivance in Ye Yunlan's eyes, he stood up straight, let the young man wait for him to put on the fox fur, put it around his shoulder, picked up the cotton rope at the neckline, and tied the knot for him.
Gu Xuan looked at the young man standing behind Ye Yunlan, tilting his head slightly, carefully tying the knot, his brows wrinkled more and more tightly.
Although this young man just called Ye Yunlan "Master", and his actions are very close to nature... But this is too close.
Moreover, there is an atmosphere of harmony between the two of them, as if there is no room for the third person to intervene... Gu Xuan's eyelids jumped.
He couldn't help but interrupted: "This one is Daoyou Ye's apprentice?"
Ye Yunlan raised his head slightly and let Shen Shu tie the knot for him before he lowered his eyes and glanced at Gu Xuan beside him, "Yes. He is my only direct disciple, Shen Shu."
"Friend Ye seems to have a good relationship with his apprentice." Gu Xuan said.
Before Ye Yunlan could answer, Shen Shu said: "My relationship with Master is naturally very good. In the past few years, I have followed Master to practice swordsmanship, and have lived in seclusion with Master in the mountains. Apart from me, there is no other person around my residence on weekdays. Three people."
Gu Xuan's eyelids twitched again, and he always felt that the "third person" in the other party's mouth meant something. Seeing that Ye Yunlan didn't seem to mean to refute, he had to cough lowly and said, "...That's it."
Ye Yunlan let out a "hmm", her eyes stopped on the scarlet jade decree in Gu Xuan's palm, and then heard Gu Xuan hoarsely: "Ye Daoyou rescued me, so you won't ask... What is my identity?"
Ye Yunlan said calmly, "I asked, would you say it?"
Gu Xuan choked.
His true identity cannot be revealed yet. The family's plan to unify the Western Continent for several years has already started, and his safety is related to the interests of all parties. For this reason, the family has already cultivated many of his stand-ins, and his current whereabouts will not be exposed.
He has always been immersed in trickery and scheming, and is accustomed to falsehood and condescension. Originally, he just wanted to reveal a false identity belonging to "Gu Xuan", which had already been arranged properly. However, now facing Ye Yunlan's icy cold, he seemed to see everything clearly in his eyes. , but suddenly couldn't say anything.
Many years ago, he had already deceived the other party once.
At that time, the man's blood was exhausted, and he was lying in his arms with extreme weakness, holding his shirt and calling him "brother".
Their blood is very close, but they have been forced to separate since birth.
This is the first time the other party calls him brother.
And he said.
"Don't call me brother."
Gu Xuan was silent for a long time, then said: "I really can't tell you your identity at this moment. It's not intentional to hide it, but there are some things, if you don't know, it will be a lot less troublesome."
But I heard Shen Shu say: "You are already in trouble. In order to save you, the master has used most of the spiritual medicine brought from the sect to the Tianchishan Taoist Forum, and you have also used the stone bed that the master has used for a few days' rest. take up…”
"Shen Shu." Ye Yunlan interrupted calmly.
Shen Shu stopped talking.
"... I disturbed fellow Daoist Ye." Gu Xuan said, "There are a lot of healing elixir in my clan, and there are also many spiritual stones and chalcedony. When my injury heals, I will definitely report it to fellow Daoist tenfold."
"No need." Ye Yunlan said, "I have always saved people just by hand, and I don't need anyone else to repay."
"How can this be?" Gu Xuan frowned, looking at the thin body and pale complexion of the person in front of him, thinking that the person just now said that he did not have a cultivation base to protect his body, but he accepted Shen Shu, who is not low at first glance. His disciple, with his deep scheming, quickly guessed the general situation of the other party.
It's not that Ye Yunlan didn't enter the Dao, but after entering the Dao, he lost his cultivation for some reason.
Perhaps it was because the practice went wrong, or because the cultivation base was destroyed due to serious injury, and it was difficult to recover.
Either way, teach him to feel distressed.
"You came to Tianchi Mountain this time to discuss Taoism, thinking that the healing elixir that you have spent for me is of great use. You have saved my life, how can I make you embarrassed?"
Gu Xuan pondered for a while, then continued: "I still have a bit of a fickle relationship with the Royal Family of Luminary Day. This time the Royal Family of Luminary Day has also reached Tianchi Mountain. If there is any difficulty, you can tell them my name, and they can help."
Ye Yunlan just said indifferently: "You said that you have a bad relationship with the Royal Family on the Day of the Sun. But you don't know that there is a personal grudge between the Royal Family on the Day of the Sun and I."
Gu Xuan didn't expect him to answer like this, so he was silent for a while and asked, "...What kind of personal resentment?"
- Psychic Stream, outside the Moon Shadow Wall.
Two slender figures walked over from a distance.
"Senior Brother Chen, thank you for staying with me here." Xu Qingyue carried a long sword on her back and held a green wood pill box in one hand. With a smile on her beautiful white face, she turned a little uneasy and said distressedly, "I don't know how to wait. Will that person, seeing us, feel abrupt and offensive?"
Chen Weiyuan: "You are both sword cultivators. You admire each other's swordsmanship and want to get to know each other. It's normal. He will understand if he wants to come."
As he said that, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the pill box in Xu Qingyue's hand. The aura of the pills was restrained very well, but this pill box alone was made of ancient blue maple wood. Effective, the value is unknown. Not to mention the medicinal pills among them, even if the Lingzhu Qian Dendrobium can't buy one.
Seeing that Xu Qingyue was still worried, he calmed down and said warmly, "You also brought the elixir to heal him. When he sees you being so sincere, he won't reject your wish even if he wants to come."
He walked over, held Xu Qingyue's hand, and squeezed it in his palm.
"What's more, there is senior brother, I am with you."
Xu Qingyue's ears were a little red, but she also showed a beautiful smile, "Senior Brother Chen said so, I'm relieved."
He looked up at the vast Moon Shadow Wall. There were thousands of caves on the Moon Shadow Wall, and countless night pearls shone in the night of the psychic stream, like the Milky Way flowing on a mural.
"Then the Mozong disciples only said that the Tianzong disciples live in the Moon Shadow Wall, but they didn't say which cave house..."
Chen Weiyuan just smiled lightly: "If you want to know, why is it difficult."
He gathered aura with his fingertips, and after swiping a few strokes in the void, he saw a star in the sky hanging down, connecting with a night pearl on the moon shadow wall.
Looking from a distance, there are two words engraved on the plaque of the cave.
"Purple Cloud."
Chen Weiyuan held Xu Qingyue's hand and looked sideways at Xu Qingyue, with a gentle smile on Qing Jun's face.
"Qingyue, let's go."
