After bidding farewell to the Wolf Officer, Zi Lan got out of the fairy carriage and walked alone to the mortal world where Xue Li currently lived.
Zi Lan hid his figure along with the immortal officials. Xue Li's cultivation was not that good yet, and she was not familiar with the affairs of the immortal world. She did not expect that there was such an immortal technique, so it was difficult for her to find them, and naturally it was difficult for her to find Zi Lan for a while.
Zi Lan was still dazed at this time, and the man just now also made him feel extremely threatened. For him, the changes happened too quickly during the time he was unconscious, and he still didn't understand what happened after he left.
Why is Sydney here
Why does she live in Xinglin Peak
Zi Lan felt that the scene before his eyes was shrouded in a white mist that was difficult to dispel, so after he landed on the ground, he did not show up rashly, but maintained his original state and looked into the house cautiously.
Xue Li's residence was filled with a familiar herbal scent. This was not a scent that could be found in Xinglin Peak or other medical practices, but a comfortable scent that was unique to Xue Li when she was pounding medicine.
The guest house was not big, but Xue Li kept it very clean. The items in the house were neatly arranged. The processed herbs were dried and placed in various places in the house. From the window, you could see several of Xue Li's personal belongings in the house, which should have been brought in her luggage when she came out of the fairyland.
Xue Li was sitting in the house, the little tiger lying on her lap and calling "Ah Woo Ah Woo". Xue Li touched the little tiger's head, looking a little absent-minded.
Zi Lan hadn't seen Xue Li for a long time. Although he had been in a coma, he had a sense of time in his dreams and had many dreams about Xue Li. From the moment he rushed out to duel with the black fog, he had no extravagant hope of seeing her again. At this moment, Xue Li appeared in front of him in good health. Zi Lan felt that his blood was alive again, just like the spring breeze that revived all things. He had never felt so safe and fortunate.
He desperately wanted to talk to Xue Li, but every inch of pain in his body reminded him of his current appearance. Even with clothes on, the huge scar on his face could not be hidden.
Zi Lan subconsciously turned his face away. Even though he knew Xue Li couldn't see him now, he couldn't help but want to hide the scar farther away so that she wouldn't notice it.
The setting sun gradually sank into the bottom of the mountain and the sky quickly darkened.
After hesitating for a long time, Zi Lan walked from the window to Xue Li's door. He revealed his figure in the shadow under the eaves.
Xueli had just finished talking to her junior master. She was her aunt's direct disciple, and the two depended on each other for survival. Their relationship was even closer than that of ordinary master and apprentice. The junior master was her real direct master, so he treated her much more friendly than other disciples.
She talked with her junior master-master about what had happened to them over the years. Upon hearing what her junior master-master had experienced, Xue Li couldn't help but sigh.
It turned out that after my aunt left, my uncle and my master had a very difficult life. It took a lot for my uncle to regain the respect of others. My uncle has been keeping the matter of my sister deep in his heart for many years. He tried to clear his aunt's name by recreating her medical skills, but he was unable to do it.
Xueli could sense the hopeful envy and surprise in Xun Wang's eyes when he saw that she could learn her aunt's medical skills. The eyes of the junior master were as clear as a lake, and Xueli believed what he said.
However, Junior Master Uncle insisted that there must be something fishy about what happened to my aunt back then. He has been looking for clues over the years. However, Junior Master Uncle, like Master Dai Youzong and Senior Sister Lin Shao, were all people who did not care about the secular world and focused on cultivation. At that time, they had no time to think about things other than practicing medicine, so they were completely unprepared and were confused when the incident happened.
Junior Master was too young at the time and had no ability to discover anything. Even if he wanted to look for it later, the clues would have been cleared away by the culprit long ago. The more time passed, the fewer clues there were, so Junior Master had no idea about this matter.
There were few things they could explain clearly today. Just telling each other about their experiences in general was enough for both sides to digest, so they agreed to communicate next time if they had any clues.
Xue Li was lost in thought.
It was at this time that Zi Lan undid the concealment on his body and appeared at the door.
The little tiger lying on Xueli's knees and acting coquettishly suddenly sensed Zilan's presence, and immediately pricked up his ears! Then he ran out quickly!
“Ahhhhh!”
The little tiger broke open the door, jumped around Zilan happily, and even tried to jump on him.
When Zi Lan saw the little tiger running out by knocking on the door, she hurriedly dodged to the side of the door and reached out to comfort the little tiger.
Its friendly and enthusiastic reaction to Zi Lan formed a sharp contrast with its vigilance and hostility towards Xun Wang before.
When Xue Li saw the little tiger running out, she was stunned for a moment and maintained the same posture for a long time without moving.
She also sensed the breath of the big snow wolf at the same time, but she couldn't believe it. However, the little tiger had not been close to anyone since leaving the fairyland. The only thing that could make it so excited was someone it had known in the fairyland before, or the big snow wolf could be coming.
Xueli was ecstatic, but she was so overjoyed that she didn't know what to do. She turned her head slowly. She didn't see the face of the big snow wolf, but she saw a corner of his white fur robe exposed behind the door.
Xueli immediately ran out in surprise, with so many things she couldn't wait to say to him. She called out in ecstasy, "Wuwu!"
But before Xue Li could run out and see the face of the big snow wolf, her eyes were suddenly covered by a hand, leaving her vision in darkness.
"Don't look."
Zi Lan said.
"Don't light the lights, let's go inside. I have a wound on my face, it doesn't look good, it's ugly."
Xue Li was stunned by what Zi Lan said.
But this was indeed the voice of the Big Snow Wolf. This familiar voice immediately made Xue Li feel at ease.
Xueli said quickly, "I don't mind! Let me see it!"
But Xue Li wanted to see Zi Lan's appearance, but Zi Lan didn't want her to see herself in such a miserable state.
Zi Lan did not agree, and his hand was still covering her eyelids.
He maintained this posture, half protecting and half hugging Xue Li as they returned to the house.
Being so close, Xueli could smell the smell of medicines on his body. Hemostatic grass, cold-removing grass, and precious immortal medicines such as Linglian and Xianshen that Xueli could hardly get in the fairyland. In addition, there were several kinds of smells that Xueli had never smelled or distinguished. They must be herbs that were beyond Xueli's knowledge and were used on him by other medical immortals in the fairyland and that Xueli had never seen before.
These herbs meant that the Snow Wolf must have been injured, and seriously injured. Ordinary medicines could not possibly have such a strong herbal smell.
Xue Li was anxious, but before she could do anything, the big snow wolf quickly led her back into the room.
Xueli had just sat in the room in a daze. After the sun went down, there was no time to turn on the lights, and the room was dark. Zi Lan pinched a spell, and with a touch of fairy spirit, all the doors and windows in the guest house were closed, and the curtains were closed, blocking the only light from the outdoors, and the room was pitch dark.
Zi Lan then released the hand that was blocking Xue Li's view.
He asked Xue Li to sit on the comfortable bed, and in order to be at the same height as Xue Li, he half-knelt in front of her.
There was no obstruction in front of Xue Li's eyes, but she could not see anything in the dark room. However, she could feel that Zi Lan was near her, and she could vaguely see the outline of a human figure in the darkness.
Xue Li hurriedly said anxiously: "You are seriously injured? Let me see your injuries!"
Zi Lan said, "Not bad."
But Xue Li didn't believe it at all. She touched Zi Lan's body in panic.
She couldn't control the position of her hand in the dark, and when she first stretched out her hand, Xue Li herself didn't know where she would touch. But after she touched it, Xue Li quickly realized that she had touched the shoulder of the big snow wolf.
Although it was a bit strange to say this, Xue Li was very familiar with the body of the Snow Wolf. She had treated his injuries for so long and was familiar with every muscle and every inch of his bones. Even if she couldn't see it, she could tell it was him just by touching it.
Xueli knew that the big snow wolf was likely to have many serious wounds, so she used very little force in her hands, like a feather falling on a carpet. She soon discovered that the big snow wolf had lost a lot of weight, and the smell of medicine on his body made Xueli feel very distressed.
She groped around along the lines of his body, and Xue Li touched his broad shoulders, the soft edge of his fur robe on his shoulders, his strong chest, his neck, and finally his face.
The facial features of the Snow Wolf were deep and three-dimensional, and each part was exquisitely shaped. But this time, when Xue Li touched the skin of his cheek, she immediately felt the wound on his face that the Snow Wolf mentioned. She didn't know how he got this wound, which was extremely long, as wide as a finger, and had already scabbed over, so Xue Li immediately felt a rough touch on her palm.
A wound like this on the face would definitely be very painful, and it probably wouldn't look very good.
Xue Li's heart ached with pain. The Snow Wolf knew that she couldn't see him, but because Xue Li touched the wound on his face, he subconsciously moved a little, trying to avoid her touch so that she wouldn't notice.
Xueli was terrified and asked anxiously, "Where have you been during this time? How did you get these injuries?"
Zi Lan paused and replied, "It's a long story. But I should have been in Wolf Territory during this period. It's safe, so don't worry too much."
Xue Li became more and more anxious: "I want to turn on the light! I have to see, I will help you heal your wounds..."
Xueli said as she touched the candlestick.
"no!"
However, before Xue Li could finish speaking, Zi Lan hurriedly stopped her.
He held her hand tightly in panic and held Xue Li's hand in his palm.
Zi Lan pursed her lips and said, "Don't look. I don't want you to see me like this."
He sorted out his thoughts and explained, "You don't have to worry. There are many medical immortals in the Nine Heavens Wolf Realm. They are all very skilled in medicine and will treat my wounds properly. I won't get hurt. In fact, I can't stay in the mortal world for long. I have to go back to the Nine Heavens to recuperate at night. I just came to see you."
Zi Lan calmed down for a moment and asked, "Are you okay? Were you injured that rainy night?"
When Xue Li heard the big snow wolf mention that rainy night, she couldn't help but pause.
The author has something to say: Xueli (jumps out excitedly): "Wuwu!"
The wolf officers watching: Oh, Wuwu... (showing gossipy expressions)
