Chapter 70 Mr. Xiao, do you have any last words?
March 1st.
Winter passes and spring begins.
Xiaoqing has also woken up from hibernation.
At this time, there are less than three days left before Bai Ruxue passes the tribulation.
Bai Ruxue was about to set off for Ganyuepo, and start her journey to Jianghualong from there.
Early that morning, Bai Ruxue got up early and made a final breakfast for Xiao Mo.
After breakfast, Bai Ruxue washed the dishes, cleaned the yard, and washed Xiao Mo's clothes.
After finishing all the housework, Bai Ruxue looked at the sky.
She knew she had to go.
"Xiao Mo, I'm leaving." Bai Ruxue stood in front of Xiao Mo and said reluctantly, "Don't worry, I will be back soon!"
"Yeah." Xiao Mo nodded. "Don't rush when you're crossing the river. No matter what you encounter, just swim forward. Believe in yourself. This river-crossing and dragon-transforming thing won't be a big deal to you."
"I understand." Bai Ruxue nodded vigorously, "You must take good care of yourself."
Xiao Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoqing is here. Are you still worried about Xiaoqing?"
Bai Ruxue raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Mo deeply: "Then I'll leave."
"Go ahead, and be careful on the road."
"Sister, we'll wait for you to come back." Xiaoqing handed the bag to her sister.
Xiaoqing was still very worried about her sister.
Although my sister has made a lot of preparations during this period, Brother Xiao has also told her many key points.
But no matter what, crossing the river and turning into a dragon is not an easy task after all.
I don’t know how many snakes have practiced for most of their lives, but failed at this step.
Especially the Nine Dragons Mysterious Thunder Tribulation.
Although not every snake is qualified to face the Nine Dragons Mysterious Thunder Tribulation.
But my sister’s talent is too exaggerated, and there is real dragon blood in her body, and her bloodline has returned to her ancestral state.
My sister also knows about this.
Although my sister seems dull on weekdays, she is not really stupid.
My sister also knows that she is gifted, and she also knows that her talent is likely to bring about the Nine Dragons Mysterious Thunder Tribulation.
Otherwise, my sister wouldn’t have decided to go walking on the river.
But the Nine Dragons Mysterious Thunder Tribulation is really a life-or-death situation.
"Don't worry, Xiaoqing. I'm your amazing sister." Bai Ruxue said with a smile, "But Xiaoqing, I'll leave Xiao Mo in your care. You must be more careful with him on weekdays."
Xiao Qing nodded heavily: "Yes, I will definitely take good care of Brother Xiao."
"Then I'll go." Bai Ruxue looked at Xiao Mo and her sister.
"Be careful on your journey."
Carrying a bag, Bai Rushue walked away step by step.
But Bai Ruxue looked back every three steps, her eyes full of reluctance.
Finally, Bai Ruxue turned around, waved her hands vigorously, took a step forward, flew away, and disappeared at the end of the sky.
"Don't worry, Ruxue will be able to reach Jiang Hualong smoothly." Xiao Mo retracted his gaze and patted Xiaoqing's head gently.
"Hmm." Xiao Qing nodded. "Sister will definitely bring back the Dragon Thunder Liquid to extend your life, Brother Xiao!"
"I won't force you." Xiao Mo just smiled and said, "Let's go back to the yard."
"Brother Xiao, slow down."
Xiaoqing supported Xiao Mo and walked back to the courtyard.
After her sister left, Xiaoqing took even better care of Xiao Mo.
Apart from reading some books, Xiao Mo would sit in the yard, tapping his fingers on the stone table again and again, as if he was deducing something.
In the evening, Xiaoqing boiled some water, helped Xiao Mo wash his face and feet, and then went back to the room to rest.
It was past midnight.
Xiao Mo opened his eyes, put on a green shirt, opened the door, and walked towards Xiaoqing's room.
Xiao Mo's footsteps were very light, and he concealed his breath with the luck of mountains and rivers. In addition, Xiao Qing was not on guard at all, so she had no idea that Brother Xiao had come to her bedside.
He sat beside Xiaoqing's bed, stretched out his finger and gently touched Xiaoqing's eyebrows.
Xiaoqing slept even more deeply. Even if she was called, she couldn't wake up. It was as if she was hibernating.
"Thank you for your hard work over the years."
Xiao Mo helped Xiao Qing pull the quilt, walked out of the room, and continued to sit in the yard, looking at the quiet starry sky, listening to the chirping of spring insects, waiting for the day to come.
Mao hour.
The indigo color still hung heavy overhead, and a few remaining stars were as faint as dying embers. Only a thick black line remained of the distant mountains, lying dimly at the junction of heaven and earth. However, a crab-shell blue had quietly emerged under the eastern sky, and then gradually spread, from dark to light.
Dawn has broken.
The morning glow dyed the sky red and shone on the old man.
"It's almost time."
Xiao Mo stood up, patted the leaves off his clothes, picked up the broom and swept the yard, then took the clothes off the bamboo pole and folded them.
Finally, Xiao Mo changed into the pair of shoes made by Bai Rushue and put on the worn-out blue shirt that he had worn for who knows how long.
After finishing everything, Xiao Mo continued to wait in the yard.
At about noon, a woman in Taoist robes came to the courtyard.
Fu Chen glanced at Xiao Mo, then at the side room: "Is Xiao Qing asleep in there?"
"Well, although in Xiaoqing's heart, her sister is more important than her life, but Xiaoqing will definitely stop me from what I am going to do next, so it's best to let her sleep. When she wakes up, everything will be over."
Xiao Mo stood up and bowed to Fu Chen: "Xiao Qing will be taken care of by the fairy."
Whisk calmly said: "Xiaoqing is my disciple, it is my duty to take care of her."
Xiao Mo smiled slightly. "Actually, I'm a little curious. Why does Fairy Fuchen value Ruxue so much? Is it just a brief encounter?"
Fu Chen shook his head: "Ruxue reminds me of a friend of mine. Her personality is very similar to Ruxue's. After her death, she left behind a drop of blood. Ruxue actually got her blood, and thus got her inheritance, and is considered half her disciple.
Helping her is also a way for me to support my friend's younger generation.
But the consequences of what happened next were too great, so I couldn’t do anything about it.
I hope Mr. Xiao will forgive me."
"You are too polite, Fairy. You have taken care of me and helped me a lot over the years. I dare not trouble you again. As for the next things, I, an old man, should be able to handle them alone." Xiao Mo said with a smile.
whisk:"."
Xiao Mo raised his head and glanced at the sky: "It's getting late, I should leave now."
Looking at Xiao Mo's calm and open eyes, Fu Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Mr. Xiao, do you have any last words?"
"Last words?"
Xiao Mo gathered his sleeves, looked at the dilapidated old courtyard, the old locust tree in the courtyard, and then looked at Sheshan Mountain not far away.
"There's a path on the south side of that mountain."
"Go up the path all the way, and there's a stone about halfway up the mountain."
"If I still have a body left."
"Let's bury him there."
