Chapter 140 (4,000 words) Xiao Yi is really aloof...

The palace was filled with the familiar smell of medicine. The doors and windows were closed tightly, without a trace of sunlight, and the palace was gloomy and silent.

The small figure lay alone on the couch, her exquisite and intricate skirt hanging down, and her tender face faintly revealed a hint of the elegant and noble demeanor that would later become her peerless beauty.

However, there was an inexplicable darkness in her eyes, as if covered with mist and out of focus, like a beautiful doll that could not move.

Yin Xing had seen Xuan Yizhen fall ill before, so he knew that she was probably feeling very uncomfortable, so he quickly floated to the bedside to check on her.

Seeing fine beads of cold sweat gradually covering Xiao Yizhen's cheeks, her whole body was stiff and silent, and even her breathing was so weak that it seemed to have stopped.

"Why don't you make a sound?" Yin Xing knew that Xuan Yizheng could endure pain very well, and could even faint from the pain without saying a word.

Yin Xing was so anxious that he wanted to ask the palace maids for help, but he was in trouble when he thought that no one could see or hear him.

Yin Xing wanted to smash the teacup to make some noise, but he found that he couldn't touch it at all, so he naturally couldn't alert the palace maids.

At this moment, Xiao Yizhen, who had been curled up on the couch, raised her eyes, looking extremely unfamiliar, and said weakly, "Go away."

Yin Xing was stunned. He looked into those dark eyes, which were devoid of any light, and asked tentatively, "Can you see me?"

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yizheng closed his eyes in aloofness, his whole body showing a resistance as he curled up in pain.

Yin Xing was a little confused by this reaction. He subconsciously thought that Xiao Yizhen was mentally unstable due to the illness. Seeing cold sweat dripping down her face and soaking her hair, she looked very pitiful.

Yin Xing subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to wipe the sweat off Xiao Yizheng, but his fingertips suddenly touched a solid object and he was stunned.

I can actually meet Xiao Yizheng, so maybe she can really see me!

But the warm and cool cheek that her fingertips touched was avoided. Then Yin Xing saw Xiao Yizhen standing up. She seemed to have used up all her strength and tremblingly said, "Go away."

Yin Xing withdrew his hand with heartache, and his gaze met Xiao Yizheng's eyes, which were full of strangeness and vigilance. Then he remembered that the illusion Gu would cause abnormalities in a person's five senses.

The adult Xuan Yizhen often cannot distinguish the facial features of others. The current little Yizhen may not be able to see his own appearance clearly, let alone distinguish between real and fake.

Or maybe in Xiao Yizheng's eyes, he was just a twisted ghostly phantom.

"Okay, I'll go away, don't be afraid." Thinking of this, Yin Xing immediately stepped away from the couch and tried to calm Xiao Yizheng's emotions.

Illusionary Gu itself can easily affect people's minds. The more stimulating it is, the more painful it is.

Yin Xing will never forget the scene where Xuan Yizheng was in so much pain that he convulsed and fainted.

So a person who can endure pain can't bear it, which shows how torturous it is.

It took a long time for Xiao Yizheng to relax a little. He looked like a fish pulled out of the water, weak and powerless.

Yin Xing didn't dare to make a sound to disturb them. He just stood there quietly like a wooden man, feeling very sorry.

Soon, the palace maids came in to serve medicine. Xiao Yizheng waited in silence to be served and changed. She was neither eager nor alert. Her eyes did not even move, as if she was a wandering soul.

Xiao Yizheng was obviously aware of Yin Xing's existence, so he was still very vigilant.

Yin Xing even suspected that he was a bad guy who kidnapped children, so he was too honest to dare to get close.

When the female official led the imperial physician in for treatment, Yin Xing saw the silver needles and couldn't bear to watch this scene.

But Xiao Yizheng's expression did not change at all. She just let it go, as if she didn't care about the pain, or as if she was too weak to struggle.

I don’t know if it was because of the medicinal soup or the effect of acupuncture, but Xiao Yizheng quickly fell into a coma.

The maids left, and a female official warned, "Princess Zhanghua has a poison inside her body that Empress Wanqi painstakingly found. Nothing can happen to it. You must pay close attention."

"Yes." The two palace maids who stayed outside responded without daring to be negligent.

When Yin Xing heard about the medicinal poison, he remembered that Xuan Yizheng had once mentioned this matter lightly. He didn't expect it to be so painful.

At such a young age, Empress Wanqi was so cruel as to use Xuan Yizhen to test the Gu. It seems that in order to survive, she must make a choice.

In a quiet place, Yin Xing stayed beside the couch, not daring to disturb Xiao Yizhen's rest. He carefully covered her with a quilt and looked at her sleeping face, feeling incredible.

The little girl was probably about 60% similar to Xuan Yizheng when he was a child, but their temperaments were obviously different.

If the little girl is a bit dull and wooden, like a pitiful little thing, then little Yizheng is cold and aloof, with a natural nobility all over her body.

In comparison, the little girl is a little gentler and easier to get along with.

Xiao Yizheng was obviously even more difficult to understand, with a natural aloofness and indifference. He was probably tortured by illness and had lost his energy. He even had a feeling of world-weariness, like a dangerous thin ice.

In the following days, Yin Xing verified her guess, because Xiao Yizhen didn't care about her at all. She didn't say a word and looked at him indifferently.

Every day, Xiao Yizhen has to drink medicine and receive acupuncture. She basically never leaves the dark room and is completely self-contained. She is so withdrawn that Yin Xing suspects she is a little mute.

"The weather outside is very good today. Don't you want to go out and take a look?" Yin Xing looked at Xiao Yizhen, whose cheeks were as white as paper, and called out with concern.

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yizheng was as indifferent as ever, not even looking up at Yin Xing, very aloof.

Seeing this, Yin Xing suddenly felt that Xuan Yizhen, after growing up, was particularly gentle and tolerant, and at least would respond to him.

Helplessly, Yin Xing had to float out of the hall by herself to prevent Xiao Yizhen from thinking that she was bothering her.

The wind blows, the branches and leaves sway, and the fragrant flowers float in the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Yin Xing thought that Xuan Yizhen always liked to arrange flowers and plants, but her residence was very deserted now, so she planned to pick some flowers to take back.

But Yin Xing had apparently forgotten that he couldn't touch anything. His fingertips passed through the petals, but nothing moved. He muttered, "What's the principle behind this?"

I can clearly touch Xiao Yizheng, but I can't touch other beings. It can't be because of true love.

Thinking of this, Yin Xing quickly stopped his strange and dangerous guess. It would be a blessing if Xiao Yi really didn't hate him.

Not long after, Yin Xing floated back into the hall and saw Xiao Yizheng practicing calligraphy, so he landed opposite him.

"The flowers outside are blooming beautifully right now. It's a pity I can't touch them, otherwise I could pick some for you to see."

"Why did you pick flowers for me?"

Xiao Yizheng looked up at the figure in front of her with a distorted face and surrounded by dark shadows, and didn't understand why she was there all the time.

Other phantoms can disappear and change temporarily, but she can't.

Yin Xing was surprised to find that Xiao Yizhen was actually willing to pay attention to him, and quickly responded eagerly: "Because flowers and plants have vitality, and they are very quiet, you will like them."

This was the standard answer that Xuan Yizheng told him at the beginning, and Yin Xing was very confident.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yizhen said seriously: "Well, flowers and plants are indeed much quieter than you."

"..." The smile on Yin Xing's face froze, and he thought that Xuan Yizheng's sharp tongue was probably innate.

In the silence, Yin Xing did not bother Xiao Yizhen anymore. He raised his hand to grind ink for her, but he couldn't even lift the ink stick. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Hey, you can ask the palace maids to bring in some flowers and potted plants to decorate it. It will be more lively and energetic."

Xiao Yizheng paused and did not respond. He just felt that this illusion was different from other illusions.

She doesn't cause herself any pain or discomfort, she's just a little noisy.

As night fell, the palace maids brought in pots of flowers and green plants. Yin Xing looked at the flowers with great interest, muttering, "Not bad, very beautiful."

I finally understand why older people like to grow flowers and plants. They can indeed replenish their energy!

Xiao Yizheng's gaze fell from the book to the phantom, and then to the palace maids. They couldn't see her. It turned out to be another illusion.

Soon, the palace maids left, and the flowers in the room emitted a faint fragrance, slightly alleviating the smell of the thick fog and medicinal soup.

"Sure enough, the whole room looks different. What do you think?"

“No difference.”

Hearing this, Yin Xing realized that Xiao Yi was really more difficult to deal with than the little girl, and couldn't help but sigh.

If this goes on, Xiao Yi is really afraid that she will lose all faith in living.

After all, Xiao Yizheng's parents are fighting a desperate battle at the moment, and they probably have no time to care about her psychological feelings.

Thinking of this, Yin Xing's heart tightened. He floated in front of her, raised his hands and gently hugged Xiao Yizhen, muttering distressedly: "No matter how these flowers and plants wither, they will still bloom again every year, so your illness will definitely be fine, everything will be fine, you have to live well."

Don’t give up, at least wait for yourself!

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yizheng did not respond. His slender body was stiff, and he sniffed the fragrant flower scent with a hint of sweetness on his nose, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Illusions will make everything in your life fall into chaos. Everything your eyes, ears, mouth and nose perceive is false, which will give you a headache.

This phantom is the strangest. She won't make herself uncomfortable, but she just likes to say strange things.

The moonlight outside the window is hazy, the figures are blurred, the moon moves and the stars turn, and time changes.

Yin Xing found that Xiao Yizheng was gradually willing to respond to him more often, and even occasionally willing to leave the temple.

Although this is because the potted plants need to be exposed to the sun, it is also a significant improvement.

The sun was shining brightly. Yin Xing basked in it, feeling exceptionally warm and comfortable, as if recharging himself. He muttered, "Xiao Yizhen, the sun is very comfortable, isn't it?"

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yizhen ignored him and his eyes fell on the flower pots placed in the pavilion. Now that he has learned how to water and care for the flowers and plants, as well as adapt to the noisy phantom, it seems that he is doing well.

Yin Xing didn't find it strange and said to himself, "The night-blooming cereus will look more beautiful. It's the kind that blooms at night. If we have a chance, we can go see it together, okay?"

When they first met, Xuan Yizhen happened to meet her because she wanted to see the Epiphyllum, so Yin Xing naturally thought that she would like it.

Xiao Yizhen had never seen an Epiphyllum before. He looked up at the distorted phantom and didn't ask any questions. He just said, "Okay."

After she finished speaking, a palace maid came in to serve medicine with a strange look on her face. Xiao Yizheng didn't care and just looked at the flowers in front of her quietly.

The maids were all afraid of falling ill, but this phantom wasn't afraid of itself, and perhaps that was just as well.

When the sun set in the west and the sunset glow filled the sky, Yin Xing and Xiao Yizheng walked through the palace corridor together, and unexpectedly ran into some familiar people.

Yin Xing was really surprised when the three princesses passed through the corridor.

After all, they have all passed away, and I never thought that we would meet again one day.

Moreover, in Yin Xing's impression, the three princesses have always been arrogant and domineering, but now they are all avoiding Xiao Yizheng, as if they are afraid of something.

The third princess's clothes looked very ordinary at this moment, not so gorgeous as to be eye-catching.

Just as Yin Xing was sighing with emotion, he suddenly became aware of Youyou's gaze. He tilted his head to meet Xiao Yizhen's serene gaze, and inexplicably felt a little guilty. What was going on?!

It's an illusion, it must be an illusion.

Not long after, Yin Xing followed him back into the hall, not daring to look back.

Xiao Yizhen drank tea and asked doubtfully, "You seem to know them?"

A familiar sense of crisis emerged in Yin Xing's heart, and he responded very clumsily: "I don't know them. Who are they?"

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yizheng didn't say anything in response. His young face showed a bit of dullness and was very cold.

Why would you pay attention to others when you are just your own phantom?

Little Xuan Yizheng didn't know that this was possessiveness, so he chose not to speak.

This reaction made Yin Xing a little confused. He thought that you can tell a child’s future by looking at him when he is three years old and his character by looking at him when he is seven. It makes sense!

In the silence, stars appeared outside the window, twinkling slightly. Yin Xing floated aside, and suddenly missed Xuan Yizhen who would take the initiative to kiss and hug her.

If it was Xuan Yizheng, he wouldn't have ignored me like that.

But Yin Xing didn’t know how to go back now, so he could only sigh in frustration.

I hope Xuan Yizheng won’t experience such an outrageous time travel as mine.

However, at this moment, Xuan Yizhen is experiencing a scene that Yin Xing could never imagine.

The city streets were bustling with traffic, tall buildings stood in rows, and the sun was scorching. In the back seat of a bus, little Yin Xing, with two small ponytails, looked at the beautiful sister who was following her with her bright black eyes, her cheeks flushed red.

The light coming in from the bus window passed over the beautiful sister's eyebrows and eyes, like a wide lake, shining with crystal light, very beautiful.

Xuan Yizheng didn't know how he came to this strange world, but he recognized Yin Xing at first sight.

Or maybe it was Yin Xing as a child. She looked even dumber and a little confused now than when she grew up.

However, Xuan Yizheng discovered that Xiao Yinxing was the only person who could see him. His gaze fell on her sparkling eyes and he couldn't help laughing. She was so young but she was still greedy for pretty appearance. She really hadn't changed at all.

"Your school is almost here." Xuan Yizheng reminded him.

"Oh." Little Yin Xing looked away embarrassedly.

The bus stopped and little Yin Xing got off. She stole a glance at the beautiful sister and was very curious why others couldn't see her.

Little Yin Xing thought for a moment and asked in a childish voice, "Sister, do you know the magic of invisibility?"

Xuan Yizhen smiled gently and said softly, "Yes."

It turns out that Yin Xing had a rich imagination when he was very young.

Xuan Yizheng didn’t understand this world very well, but as long as Yin Xing was there, he didn’t have to worry too much.

Xuan Yizheng watched little Yin Xing enter the classroom before he had time to think about why he came to this world.

Perhaps the meteorite has some special function, but Yin Xing is not around, perhaps he is still staying in his own world.

The bell rang, and Xuan Yizheng's sharp eyes swept across the dark eyes of Xiao Yinxing by the window. His expression softened a little. He thought to himself that although she didn't know him, she didn't seem to have changed at all, and always showed a natural closeness.

When they first met, Yin Xing stared at him in the same offensive way.

Perhaps noticing Xuan Yizheng's gaze, little Yin Xing blushed and looked away, feeling both bold and shy.

Xuan Yizheng raised her thin lips, her beautiful eyes reflected soft light, as gentle as the spring breeze. When her fingertips touched the ring, she felt happy.

After all, this place is Yin Xing's world and past, and Xuan Yizhen has always wanted to know everything about her.

Especially these past events that Xuan Yizheng should never be able to understand are really curious.
