Chapter 95 Chapter 95 "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent...
Human world.
Lijia Village.
Biqing and Xuanyi returned just before noon. Biqing was worried about Xuanyi, so she led him in and cleaned up the dusty house by herself.
The two found that the Pure Bell could not be used and did not return to the demon world.
Biqing originally wanted to return to the clan to say hello to Mo Jue, but Xuan Yi stopped her, took out a talisman from his arms, and used his magical power to pass the message to his brother.
Biqing felt a little relieved when she found out that he was not silent.
She and Xuan Yi confirmed again and again that the talisman paper could be in Mo Jue's hands, and she took Xuan Yi back to the human world.
Xuan Yi in the room was not idle, even busier than Bi Qing, wiping the tables, chairs and benches in an orderly manner.
Xuan Yi even wiped the bunk bed carefully over and over again with a towel.
With Biqing's spiritual power blessing, the two of them cleaned the house neatly just after noon.
Xuan Yi said nothing, clutching the wrung-out towel in his hand, sitting in his chair in a daze.
There was a slight tug on his sleeve, and Xuan Yi raised his head to meet Biqing's worried eyes.
He forced a smile and said, "Give me some time. I'll be back in shape by tomorrow at the latest."
Biqing felt even worse when she saw the person in front of her smile which was uglier than crying.
She tugged at Xuan Yi's sleeve and led him to the bed: "Come and lie down."
Xuan Yi's heart tightened, and he took two steps back in panic: "Biqing, you..."
“…What are you thinking about!”
The pain in Biqing's heart was completely dissipated by Xuanyi's actions.
She was both angry and amused: "Come back to your real body and I'll coax you, just like I coaxed Jiu and the others."
Xuan Yi looked at the green cushion that Biqing had brought to the bed at some point, then looked at Biqing's serious smiling face, and realized that he was overthinking.
Xuan Yi sat down next to Bi Qing, transformed back into his true form, and lay down on the green mat.
"Come closer." Biqing patted her legs, motioning Xuanyi to come closer.
Xuan Yi: "...I'm not Ah Jiu."
It was really indecent for me to lie on Biqing's legs.
Feeling a gentle caress on his head, Biqing took the initiative to move closer to him, holding Xuanyi's furry head with both hands and placing it on her legs: "I know, you're so heavy, I can't hold you!"
Xuan Yi: “…Indeed.”
Xuan Yi was a little uncomfortable at first, but as Biqing comforted him again and again, his awkward mood was gradually replaced by fatigue.
He relaxed and rested his head on Biqing's legs. After a moment, he felt sleepy.
Xuan Yi's eyelids were heavy, his body was not made of iron.
He gets tired too.
The warm and steady breath sprayed on Biqing's legs. Biqing smiled and slowed down the movement of her hand that was stroking Xuanyi's head so as not to wake him up.
About two minutes later, Biqing's straight back felt a little sore.
Seeing Xuan Yi sleeping soundly, Biqing simply leaned back and lay on the bed to rest.
When Biqing returned to the demon world in the early morning, her mind was full of the matter of purifying the water source. Even with Xuan Yi's words to comfort her, she could not sleep peacefully.
Back in the human world, she could actually have a good rest.
Since both the Immaculate Bells are unusable, it is better to take a good rest and set off early with Xuan Yi to find the last two artifacts.
If these two issues can't be resolved...
Biqing slowly closed her eyes: Then she would return to heaven.
There are countless books in heaven. As long as she is patient and searches through them, she will definitely find the artifact that can purify the foul air.
She would not go back on her promise to Xuan Yi.
Even though she was not at all willing to return to heaven.
But if she really had to, she would still go back for Xuan Yi and the creatures in the demon world.
Who says he is God?
Having made up her mind, Biqing cast aside all the groundless worries in her mind, and her tense nerves gradually relaxed.
Before she knew it, Biqing fell asleep.
When I woke up again, the room was pitch black.
Biqing rubbed her eyes and stood up, only to find herself on the inside of the bed. Xuan Yi, who had transformed back into his true form, was lying quietly beside her.
A pair of golden-blue mandarin duck eyes stared at him without blinking.
Biqing didn't think anything of it since it wasn't a human form. She reached out and rubbed Xuanyi's head, then spoke in the same tone she used to address Ah Jiu: "Are you hungry? Do you want me to prepare something for you to eat?"
Xuan Yi said nothing, jumped off the bed and transformed into a human form, looking at the sleepy Biqing with a resentful look on his face.
Biqing met Xuanyi's eyes that seemed to say, "I'm not Ah Jiu." A hint of embarrassment appeared on her face as she explained, "I'm used to coaxing Ah Jiu and the others, and I'm having trouble changing."
She changed the subject and asked, "Xuan Yi, are you feeling better?"
Xuan Yi said calmly, "After a good night's sleep, I'm not so irritable anymore."
Biqing rubbed against the edge of the couch, looked up at Xuan Yi's fierce face, and chuckled.
Xuan Yi frowned slightly: "Biqing, but is there something on my face?"
"I laughed at you for not even knowing how to lie."
Biqing left the bunk bed and came to the bedside: "It's not too late yet."
He turned to Xuan Yi and asked, "Do you want to go shopping in the city? I heard there's a night market there. I haven't been to one in the past few months since I came to the human world."
Xuan Yi lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."
Biqing took Xuanyi's hand with ease and said with a smile, "Just relax tonight! We have things to do tomorrow."
Before Xuan Yi could refuse, the scene before his eyes flashed, and he and Bi Qingren arrived at an alley in the city.
The streets are bustling at night, even more bustling than during the day.
The place was bustling with people, and the shouts and hawking sounds from the teahouses and taverns were so loud that Xuan Yi's ears hurt slightly.
The air was filled with the aroma of various foods, choking Xuan Yi and causing him to rub the tip of his nose. He asked, "Biqing, do you still have the handkerchief you used when you went to the Shiwan Mountains?"
Biqing said, "When we returned to the demon world last time, Jiu and the others looked at it curiously, so I left it to them. Is your nose uncomfortable?"
Xuan Yi wanted to nod, thinking about Biqing's first time at the night market, and not wanting her to worry about him, so he said, "No, I was just thinking that the handkerchief might come in handy the next time I go looking for a divine artifact."
"Don't think about artifacts when you're out playing!"
Biqing gently poked Xuanyi's arm: "If you do this, I will feel guilty!"
Xuan Yi smiled apologetically, "I understand. I won't do that next time."
Biqing snorted and walked forward on her own.
Xuan Yi naturally caught up with her and followed her as she walked from stall to stall.
There are many rare items in the human world, including clay figurines, kites, rouge, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, cloth...
There are common and uncommon items, expensive and cheap items.
Xuan Yi and Bi Qing were dazzled by what they saw, and naturally put the matter of finding the artifact aside for the time being.
Having not had a proper meal for half a month, Biqing asked, "Xuanyi, can you smell which place has the best food?"
Xuan Yi tilted his head slightly, flaring his nose, and pointed at a restaurant: "Do you have enough money?"
Biqing took out her purse and looked at the few pieces of silver inside: "It's still enough for a meal!"
Xuan Yi smiled and held her hand: "Just kidding."
Lifting Biqing's hand, he pointed to a bun shop next to the restaurant: "That one tastes better."
Biqing pulled her hand back and snorted harshly at Xuan Yi.
The two bought the shop's special soup dumplings. It was the first time for Biqing and Xuanyi to eat them. They looked at the eight buns neatly arranged and swaying in the drawer, feeling a little at a loss.
Biqing secretly observed how the woman next to her ate, took the chopsticks from the bamboo tube, picked up the spoon next to the drawer, carefully picked up the bun, and quickly caught it with the spoon.
The bun is neither too big nor too small, just enough to fill a spoon.
Biqing handed the bun to Xuanyi and said with a smile, "I'm awesome, right? I picked it up in one go!"
Xuan Yi took the bun from Bi Qing and, imitating the woman's example, took a small bite out of the bun wrapper.
The delicious soup flowed into Xuan Yi's mouth and slid down his throat into his stomach.
Xuan Yi's irritability completely disappeared, and he focused on eating the soup dumplings in his spoon.
Seeing Xuanyi enjoying his meal, Biqing asked the boss for another tray and ate happily.
It’s so rare to get out, I can’t let myself and Xuan Yi suffer.
Biqing took a few bites and her eyes fell on the sweet water shop not far away.
Xuan Yi saw Bi Qing stop moving and turned back to look at her. "Wait for me here."
He put down the spoon and the half-eaten bun, got up and went to the sweet water shop.
Not long after, Xuan Yi came out with a bowl of "Ice and Snow Cold Dumplings".
The "yuanzi" in the ice and snow cold yuanzi is made of mung beans. First, the mung beans are steamed, peeled and crushed, and then cooled, mixed with glutinous rice flour and milk, and rolled into yuanzi.
The rolled dumplings are put back into the pot and cooked for a while. After being taken out, they are drizzled with osmanthus honey or milk. They are sweet but not greasy and taste very refreshing.
Biqing exclaimed, "Wow!" when she saw the mountain of dumplings in Xuanyi's hand.
"The boss said girls like this."
Xuan Yi placed the ice-cold dumpling next to Bi Qing's hand and said, "Try it."
Biqing didn't rush to eat, but asked the boss for an empty bowl and gave half to Xuanyi.
Then she threw away the soup dumpling in her hand, scooped a dumpling with a spoon and put it into her mouth.
The delicate green beans mixed with the aroma of milk are delicious.
Biqing ate all the dumplings in the bowl in one breath, drank the milk mixed with osmanthus honey in the bowl, swallowed the last mouthful, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
Biqing licked her lips with a satisfied look, but she saw Xuanyi put the half bowl of dumplings she had given him back into his own bowl, leaving only a few in his bowl.
After all, it was a wolf. Xuan Yi took a bite and said, "It's delicious, but I prefer meat."
Biqing pushed the half-empty tray of buns next to her toward Xuanyi: "You should eat them all. I didn't touch anything."
The two smiled at each other and ate the food in front of them.
After eating and drinking, the two continued to stroll around the night market to help digest the food.
"It's a pity it's not winter yet, otherwise we could eat candied haws!" Biqing said with a hint of regret. "I heard candied haws are sour and sweet, and they're really delicious!"
Xuan Yi followed her, walking slowly and steadily: "Come back in winter."
Biqing glanced at him resentfully and blurted out, "You're not here again in winter."
Xuan Yi's pupils suddenly contracted.
Biqing actually looks forward to going to the night market with me in winter.
Xuan Yi was flattered and looked at the person beside him in surprise and astonishment.
Biqing covered her mouth. What she just said was said carelessly without her thinking at all.
She suddenly realized that she had become somewhat dependent on Xuan Yi since she didn't know when.
Biqing didn't know what was wrong with her. When she met Xuan Yi's golden-blue eyes, which were as bright as glass, her cheeks instantly became hot.
Biqing was in a panic, not knowing whether to cover her mouth or her face.
She cried out "Ouch!", pushed Xuan Yi away, and ran away against the busy traffic.
Biqing's sudden action confused Xuanyi. By the time he came to his senses, Biqing had already run out of his sight.
Xuan Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head helplessly and dotingly, and a smile that he couldn't suppress appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I didn't say anything."
Biqing ran to the woods on the outskirts of the city, leaned against a tree, covered her chaotic heart, opened her mouth and took deep breaths, trying to calm the inexplicable tension.
She didn't understand what was happening to her.
Looking back, it seemed like she had blushed more than once because of Xuan Yi.
Biqing murmured to herself: "I can't... I can't..."
Could it be that she has fallen in love with Xuan Yi?
Biqing slapped her face and scolded herself inwardly: "Biqing, how can you be worthy of him... He is the leader of the wolf demons, and you are just an insignificant god..."
Just as Biqing was lost in her thoughts, she heard someone calling her in surprise: "Biqing, you're here?! I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Biqing's chaotic thoughts vanished instantly. With a cold expression, she looked at the man in front of her, whose eyes were filled with joy, and angrily said, "What are you doing here?!"
