The night wind blew in through the half-open window and blew on Xie Beiming's cheek. The expression on his face was frozen by the wind, and his movements were also frozen. His slender fingers were still lingering on the corners of Shen Qiqi's upturned mouth.
He looked like a wooden sculpture.
However, the light in his eyes was frighteningly bright.
Thank you Beiming.
That's his name.
Qiqi was calling his name, even in her sleep, with the corners of her mouth still raised.
So now, he has finally entered Qiqi's heart, right?
As soon as this realization came to his mind, Xie Beiming suddenly came back to life. His heart in his chest began to beat like a drum and gong, with such force that it seemed as if it would break several of his ribs.
The night wind enjoyed the fun and jumped up and down, filling the room with the rustling and rustling sounds of curtains and book pages being blown.
But Xie Beiming seemed to hear nothing. He was not disturbed and just stared at the person who was still dreaming. His eyes were as gentle as spring water, tracing the curve of her lips over and over again.
Finally, he lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss.
The night breeze, who was watching the fun, got what he wanted. He excitedly turned around in the house and ended up bumping into the wick.
The house fell into darkness.
Shen Qiqi's eyes went dark while she was sleeping.
Because she saw Xie Beiming's face turned red because of her teasing, and he even bumped into the pillar like a drunkard, she was so happy that she ended up in tragedy, stepped on empty air, and fell off the table.
Or the kind that's face down.
The result was predictable. Shen Qiqi woke up from her dream in pain and subconsciously touched her nose.
Fortunately, my nose is not broken.
Shen Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief.
She raised her eyelids and saw Xie Beiming sitting on the edge of the bed, with his face that was obviously a little too rosy.
Shen Qiqi: ???
Is she still in a dream?
Shen Qiqi subconsciously looked at Xie Beiming's left arm.
Xie Beiming's left arm is still there.
But Xie Beiming in the dream only had one right arm.
It seems it's not a dream.
But if this wasn't a dream, then why was Xie Beiming's face so red? It looked as if he'd put on some rouge.
Shen Qiqi asked curiously, and Xie Beiming replied calmly, "It's too hot and stuffy in the room." Then he followed up with, "Are you hungry?"
This question hit Shen Qiqi right in the heart. She immediately stopped worrying about why it was so hot in April. She sat up, rubbed her flat stomach and said, "I'm hungry. I'm starving. I'm so hungry... By the way, why am I sleeping here?"
As soon as she opened her eyes, she realized that this was not her room.
But she had just woken up and her brain was a little confused. She couldn't remember what happened for a while. It was only after Xie Beiming reminded her that Shen Qiqi remembered what happened before she fell into a coma.
She rubbed her rumbling stomach and didn't dare to look Xie Beiming in the eye out of guilt.
For two days and one night, even if you haven't eaten a grain of rice or water, it is absolutely impossible for you to faint from hunger.
The reason why she fainted from hunger was that she stayed in the space for too long this time and did not take any fasting pills. During this period, she only ate a few fruits here and there to fill her stomach, so she fainted from hunger.
But how is she going to explain this?
Shen Qiqi was just thinking about how to explain it in a more reasonable and credible way when she suddenly heard Xie Beiming say, "Taiqing Immortal Venerable said that your body has been hungry for at least a month, so you fainted."
After Xie Beiming finished speaking, he looked at Shen Qiqi without blinking.
Shen Qiqi's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat, and the panic in her eyes was nowhere to be hidden.
She swallowed hard, looked at Xie Beiming, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Ran, then what?"
Is the secret of space about to be exposed?
If the secret of the space is exposed, Taiqing Immortal Venerable, Yuyuan Immortal Venerable, and several other Immortal Venerables, even her master Wu Qiongcang, will come to check on her...
She is afraid of being checked.
Because she couldn't guarantee that she could still keep the abnormality in her bloodline under the joint inspection of so many powerful cultivators...
Fear silently devoured Shen Qiqi. She unconsciously grabbed her own hand and dug her nails into the flesh on the back of her hand, almost tearing that piece of skin apart.
Xie Beiming's guess was confirmed. He didn't continue, but took Shen Qiqi's hand, held it in his own hand, and said to her softly: "Qiqi, let's reconcile our words first, so that you don't let anything slip."
"..." Shen Qiqi looked at Xie Beiming suspiciously, and then asked a very stupid question, "Why do we have to speak first?"
It feels like a criminal hiding in a corner and quietly confessing after committing a crime.
Xie Beiming looked at her and did not show any disdain for her stupid question. Instead, he told her the reason very seriously.
"After you fainted from hunger, Immortal Taiqing was furious, thinking it was Immortal Qiongcang who was abusing you and not giving you food. He was going to go to the Sect Master to ask for an explanation. However, we've been together for the past half month, and I know your daily diet very well. The degree of your hunger doesn't match the time of your last meal, and the discrepancy is huge."
"I privately speculated that you must have spent a long time in some unknown time and space, but I didn't know if exposing this unknown time and space would have a negative impact on you. So I told Taiqing Immortal Venerable that you've been dieting recently, which is why your body is so hungry... This is our explanation, remember?"
Xie Beiming spoke in a calm tone, as if he was saying that the weather was nice today, but the person listening to him had his heart pounding and was sweating profusely.
It wasn't until a drop of sweat flowed into her eyes that Shen Qiqi suddenly woke up. She looked at the calm young man in front of her and said in a hoarse voice: "Xie Beiming, I..."
"Everyone has their own secrets. I'm not curious." Xie Beiming interrupted considerately.
Implicit meaning: You don't have to tell me.
Shen Qiqi bit her lip, and after a while she exhaled, the struggle and hesitation in her eyes disappeared.
"Your speculation is correct. During the two days I was in the alchemy room, my consciousness did travel to another time and space."
If there is one person in this world who is worthy of her trust, it must be Xie Beiming.
"That place is called Wuwang Space, which my mother left for me. The speed of time passing in this space is different from the speed of time passing in the real world. In your opinion, I only stayed in the alchemy room for two days and one night, but in reality, I stayed in this space from the white snow to the new branches of the willow tree."
"Not only that, the spiritual energy within this space is several times richer than that outside. There's also a vast medicinal field within this space, as well as an attic filled with all kinds of medical books, ancient tomes, and strange stories. The methods I use to heal illnesses and save lives are all found in those medical books..."
Shen Qiqi told Xie Beiming almost everything she could except for her rebirth.
Including the fire lotus in her blood.
