Chapter 191 Obtain Key Fragment × 1
Ye Xingzhou smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes, put on his shoes and walked out.
"Brother Xiang, I'm going to the library and will be back soon."
Ye Xingzhou rushed to the stove and gave instructions to Xiuyuan.
The side room of the stove was built a few days ago. It can satisfy my cravings from time to time and saves me the trouble of often lighting a fire in the yard.
Ye Xingzhou staggered out of the courtyard and headed towards the library.
He wanted to find Zuo Chunhui to see if he could get some useful information.
He says he is looking for someone, but in reality he is acting as a lackey.
After three bends in the road, the place with a hibiscus tree next to the library is Zuo Chunhui's courtyard.
Ye Xingzhou rubbed his wrist and was ready to be ordered around when the door was knocked.
There were three clear knocks on the door.
The two wooden doors opened without any wind.
The courtyard is full of flowers, and the faint fragrance of flowers fills the air.
Ye Xingzhou saw that the door to the inner room was ajar, so he pushed it open.
Zuo Chunhui was no longer lying lazily on the chaise longue, and the room was empty.
Sunlight streamed in through the open door, and a thin layer of dust hung in the air.
Zuo Chunhui has been gone for a long time.
Where did he go?
Ye Xingzhou looked around and his eyes fixed on the wooden table.
There are three things on the table.
A piece of paper, a bottle, and a fan.
The paper was placed at the bottom. Ye Xingzhou picked up the jade bottle, opened it and took a look. Inside the jade bottle was a Heaven-grade Spirit Gathering Pill.
The jade-bone fan was what Zuo Chunhui often used to fan himself in the past.
As soon as Ye Xingzhou's fingers touched the fan handle, a cool and refreshing air swept through his fingertips and his tendons and veins, and the needle-like pain in his brain dissipated little by little.
The restlessness and tiredness faded away, and my heart felt extremely peaceful.
Ye Xingzhou opened the fan and rubbed the white jade fan bones with his fingertips. He didn't know what material it was made of, but it felt as smooth as jade and contained tremendous spiritual power.
I even gave him the fan. Does this mean Zuo Chunhui doesn't plan to come back?
Ye Xingzhou pulled out the paper underneath, and the eight characters came into view.
〈The road to life has been opened, and everything will go smoothly from now on〉
[Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking 1 hidden character and 4 key characters]
[Ding, the host obtains 'Wish with Heart' and obtains 1 key fragment]
The long-dormant system suddenly issued a series of prompt sounds.
Ye Xingzhou ignored the system's prompts and looked at the handwriting on the paper with mixed feelings.
The ink spread on the paper, and the handwriting was sloppy yet serious. It was a sloppy cursive handwriting, but it looked like it was written stroke by stroke and then traced again, and the ink was very thick.
The writer seemed reluctant to leave as if saying goodbye, and after finishing the words he repeated them over and over again.
Zuo Chunhui, what did Yan calculate?
Ye Xingzhou asked, [System, will Zuo Chunhui come back?]
The system's mechanical sound seemed to have a slight fluctuation.
【Host, when fate arrives, we will meet. 】
Ye Xingzhou closed his eyes. [What is the price of opening a way out?]
System: [No price, host.]
How can there be no price?
The system's answer was just a soothing one.
The mechanical sound disappeared, and the system woke up briefly before falling back into sleep.
The paper in Ye Xingzhou's hand had wrinkles on it, and his fingertips turned white from the force.
Getting the blessing from the heart was not as exciting as I had imagined.
He vaguely realized that the price of sacrifice for this way of survival would be very high.
The cool air of the jade bone fan spread, soothing the fluctuating emotions.
Thinking of how Zuo Chunhui often holds the jade bone fan, is he also suffering?
Ye Xingzhou cleared his mind and stood there for a long time.
Until the sunlight outside the window fades, until the moon climbs into the sky.
We will meet when fate brings us together.
But how long will it take for this fate to come?
Ye Xingzhou folded the paper without saying a word and put the jade bone fan and jade bottle into the storage bag.
He believed in Zuo Chunhui from beginning to end.
It was a strange familiarity, a trust that came from deep in the bones.
This gave Ye Xingzhou the illusion that he had known Zuo Chunhui for a long time.
Ye Xingzhou moved his numb legs and walked out of the yard.
The door of the courtyard closed again, blocking the flowers in the yard.
Ye Xingzhou bowed towards the courtyard.
He walked back in the moonlight, and heard faint footsteps behind him.
The footsteps were light, slow and orderly.
Ye Xingzhou turned around and saw Xiang Xiuyuan following behind him, about six feet away, neither far nor close.
The bright moonlight sprinkled all over the ground, making the outlines of Xiang Xiuyuan's face look particularly soft.
"Brother, how long have you been waiting for me outside?" Ye Xingzhou approached Xiang Xiuyuan, "Why didn't you call me?"
Xiang Xiuyuan shook his head slightly, "Just arrived a while ago."
He prepared the lotus leaf chicken, but Ye Xingzhou didn't come back until dark.
He came to the library to look for someone, but the senior brother who was guarding the library said that Ye Xingzhou was not in the library, so he thought of going to Elder Zuo's courtyard.
When he arrived, he saw the courtyard gate was open, so he waited under the hibiscus tree for someone to come out.
After Ye Xingzhou came out of the courtyard, he looked unhappy.
Xiang Xiuyuan was not good at speaking and didn't know how to comfort, so he chose to follow Ye Xingzhou not too far away, silently accompanying him for a while to help him digest his emotions.
Ye Xingzhou didn't believe it, "Brother Xiang, you lied to me."
"No." Xiang Xiuyuan denied it.
Ye Xingzhou said, "Brother Xiang, your habit of pursing your lips when you're nervous or lying has betrayed you."
Xiang Xiuyuan pinched the corner of his clothes helplessly. He lowered his eyes and told the truth.
Xiang Xiuyuan: "You are in a bad mood, I don't want to disturb you at this time."
Ye Xingzhou: "So you just follow me."
Xiang Xiuyuan: "Yeah."
Ye Xingzhou raised his hand and touched his face.
I forgot that Xiang Xiuyuan is sensitive to emotions. Even if he is smiling now, he can still easily sense his true emotions.
"Brother Xiang, don't worry, I'm fine."
Ye Xingzhou stretched out his hand to hook his shoulder out of habit, but stopped abruptly halfway through.
Xiang Xiuyuan's punches were no lighter than Gu Qingshan's.
It hurts for a long time after getting punched.
He didn't want to be punched by his senior brother again like last time.
When Xiang Xiuyuan saw Ye Xingzhou raise his hand, he subtly narrowed the distance between them.
Before his hand even touched his shoulder, he retracted it halfway and stretched naturally.
Xiang Xiuyuan suddenly felt a little ashamed of having misunderstood.
He thought that Junior Brother Ye wanted to put his arm around his shoulder.
Fortunately, the night was hazy and Ye Xingzhou was focused on the road, so he didn't see Xiang Xiuyuan biting his lip in shame.
"Brother Xiang, have my junior brothers come back?" Ye Xingzhou asked.
"No." Xiang Xiuyuan coughed lightly. "I asked Tang Bai, and he said that during the talisman class, Junior Brother Ren accidentally threw the Heavenly Thunder Talisman onto Elder Qi's back, and Elder Qi punished him by making him sweep the spirit beast pen."
Accidentally thrown on the back.
This is just something I posted because I was itching to do it.
"What about Meng Zhi?" Ye Xingzhou asked again.
Xiang Xiuyuan's voice weakened, "Did he accidentally throw the Heavenly Thunder Talisman onto Elder Qi's back?"
At the end of the day, Xiang Xiuyuan wasn't even sure what to ask himself.
Ye Xingzhou understood in just three seconds, "I knew right away that these two were competing in applying talismans to see who could avoid being discovered by Elder Qi."
How could a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage not sense this little movement? The two were immediately punished to sweep the spirit beast circle and keep Zhao Feng company.
Xiang Xiuyuan tacitly agreed with Ye Xingzhou's statement.
Ye Xingzhou let out a light sigh.
Two childish guys got together just to ask for punishment.
"Brother, if they're not here, we'll eat lotus leaf chicken alone tonight."
"good."
