Bai Suzhen used her little finger to pick up a little ointment from the porcelain bottle and applied it on Xiaoqing's red and swollen cheek, then gently spread it with her fingertips. The slightly cool touch on her cheek made Xiaoqing sigh comfortably, and she simply relaxed her body, leaning into Bai Suzhen's arms like a spoiled child, wrapping her arms around Bai Suzhen's waist, slightly tilting her head, and exposing her injured cheek to Bai Suzhen to apply the ointment. Bai Suzhen looked at her face and felt a little bitter. She was indeed comfortable, but it was really inconvenient to apply the ointment herself in this posture.
"Qing'er, sit up straight. I have something to tell you." After finally applying the medicine to Xiaoqing, Bai Suzhen pushed Xiaoqing in her arms and asked her to sit up straight. She wanted to ask what happened to the wound on her face.
"We can talk like this." Xiaoqing hugged Bai Suzhen's waist tightly, rubbed her face against Bai Suzhen's neck, and said lazily.
"Qing'er, if you don't sit still, I'll be angry." Bai Suzhen gave the ultimatum calmly. Her tone wasn't particularly harsh, and her words weren't very threatening, but she made Xiaoqing obediently retract her hand, move away from her body a little bit, and slowly straighten her limp little body.
"Haha, sister, don't be angry, I'll just sit still." It is true that there is always someone who can conquer you. Xiao Qing was fearless, but when she was in front of Bai Suzhen, she became afraid of everything. She was really afraid of making Bai Suzhen angry - to be more precise, she was reluctant to make Bai Suzhen angry. Making the person you like angry is the stupidest thing in the world, and Xiao Qing would never do such a stupid thing. She sat up straight, lowered her eyebrows, looked at her nose with her eyes, and looked at her heart with her nose. She was so well-behaved. She raised her eyes slightly, smiled sweetly at Bai Suzhen, and said softly, "Sister, just tell me what's on your mind, I'm listening."
"Qing'er, be serious." Bai Suzhen's eyes moved, she glared at Xiaoqing, then turned her head and burst out laughing. Qing'er looked so funny like a young wife, she couldn't help laughing.
"What's wrong with me?" Xiaoqing said with a twist of her mouth, pretending to be aggrieved.
Bai Suzhen ignored her. She put away the porcelain bottle, stood up and went to the dressing table to wash her hands that were stained with ointment. She turned around and wiped her hands with a towel while asking, "Qing'er, where did you go just now?"
"An unknown valley." It was indeed unknown. If it weren't for Mu Yanran leading the way, Xiaoqing might not have been able to find it. However, when she came back, she had already written down the way to the valley. Although she promised Mu Yanran that she would not go to the valley to disturb Sister Feng before finding Jichuan River, she was still worried. After a while, she planned to go to the valley again. Of course, she just went to see if Sister Feng was doing well, which would not be considered a violation of her promise to Mu Yanran.
"An unknown valley? Qing'er, please explain it more clearly. What unknown valley? Weren't you originally in the room? How did you suddenly run to some valley? And how did you end up arguing with that Fairy of Flowers and getting punched in the cheek?" Bai Suzhen was completely confused and was just waiting for Xiaoqing to explain it to her.
"This is what happened..." Xiaoqing did not hide anything and told Bai Suzhen in detail how Mu Yanran came to find her after Bai Suzhen left the room and took her to see Feng Qinghuan, how Feng Qinghuan drank the water from the Wangchuan River and forgot everything, and how Mu Yanran took her out on Feng Qinghuan because of her frustration and beat her up.
"The Lotus Fairy actually drank the water of the Forgetful River!" Bai Suzhen felt mixed emotions when she heard the news. She was impressed by the deep love of the Lotus Fairy, which had reached the point where she could only forget everything. At the same time, she could not help but compare her feelings for Qing'er with those of the Lotus Fairy. In the end, she came to the conclusion that they were equally matched. For Qing'er, Bai Suzhen could give everything she had, including her life, but she knew that the Lotus Fairy could do the same, but she was luckier than the Lotus Fairy because Qing'er's heart was with her.
"I never thought that one day I would hurt Sister Feng so badly." Xiao Qing looked down at her hands, vaguely recalling the first time she saw Feng Qinghuan when she accidentally entered the Hundred Flowers Valley. That time she was chasing a tree spirit, and the tree spirit fled all the way to the Hundred Flowers Valley, and happened to meet Feng Qinghuan who was coming out of the valley at the entrance of the Hundred Flowers Valley. The tree spirit asked Feng Qinghuan for help, and Feng Qinghuan let the tree spirit into the Hundred Flowers Valley out of pity. Naturally, she refused, and went into the valley to pull the tree spirit out. In fact, the tree spirit was not an unforgivable person, but he dared to urinate in the waters of the East China Sea. How could she, the dignified Third Princess of the East China Sea, not be angry? If she didn't catch the tree spirit and teach him a lesson, how could she vent her anger!
After hearing the whole story, Feng Qinghuan pleaded for the tree spirit.
"Princess, please calm down. How about this? I will dance for you. If you are still angry after I finish dancing, I will let you go into the valley to catch the tree spirit. On the contrary, if you feel better after I finish dancing, please give me some face and stop pursuing the tree spirit's fault. Okay?"
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Not wanting to argue, she agreed to the other party's proposal. She originally wanted to just enjoy the dance, and it wouldn't be too late to go into the valley to catch the tree spirit after enjoying it. However, when Feng Qinghuan started dancing, all her mind was involuntarily attracted by her graceful dance accompanied by the flying petals. The picture was so beautiful that after the dance ended, she actually forgot her original intention.
In the end, the tree spirit escaped because of Feng Qinghuan, and she became fascinated by Feng Qinghuan's dancing. After that, she would run to Baihua Valley from time to time, begging Feng Qinghuan to dance for her. Later, when she fought with fairies, she would often bring Feng Qinghuan with her and ask her to watch the fun from the side.
At that time, she never expected that one day, Feng Qinghuan would be sad because of her and drink the water of Wangchuan River...
Xiaoqing frowned. She felt as if a heavy weight was pressing down on her heart, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Qing'er, don't blame yourself too much." Bai Suzhen sat down beside the bed, reached out her hand to gently smooth Xiaoqing's frown, and sighed slightly.
Xiao Qing looked up at her and suddenly asked, "Sister, do you know where that river is?"
Bai Suzhen shook her head and sighed, "I have only heard that there are two rivers in the Three Realms, the Wangchuan River and the Jichuan River. The water in the Wangchuan River can make people forget everything, while the water in the Jichuan River can make people remember everything they have forgotten. The Wangchuan River and the Jichuan River are only a hundred meters apart, but I don't know where these two rivers are."
"Even my sister doesn't know..." Xiaoqing was a little disappointed. How could she find the Jichuan River
