Shen Hua raised her wrist and said, "It's nothing, I'll just apply some ointment and it'll be fine. But you, are you suffering any internal injuries?"
Shen Hua immediately went over to check his pulse and was relieved to find that there was nothing seriously wrong.
Xie Sichen looked at the hand she had touched and curled his lips into a smile.
While the two of them were talking, they were fighting fiercely over there. Yan Yi, in particular, was furious when he saw Shen Hua with Xie Sichen's hand on his arm, and he fought even harder.
"You stinky Taoist priest, I'll do my thing, and you can continue being your Taoist priest. Wouldn't it be better if we just minded our own business? Why do you have to meddle?"
“As a Taoist priest, your duty is to slay demons and protect human lives. You demon, it is not easy to cultivate, yet you come out to harm people. I am determined to take care of you.”
The two fought and talked for quite a while, but neither could determine a winner.
By this time, Grandmother Jia had already woken up. She pulled her father, who had come here, toward Xie Sichen, but then she seemed to remember something and dared not get close, though she still glared at him angrily.
"What kind of monster are you? Why are you taking over my son's body? What have you done to my son?"
They dare not do anything now, but the thought of their son's murder is unbearable.
Just as Xie Sichen was about to speak, he saw a person dressed in black fly down from the sky. As he landed, everyone froze and then turned into countless tiny stars. The surrounding environment transformed into a sea of flowers, with a small river flowing gently in the center and a small bridge spanning the river.
They stood at the bridgehead, facing off against the men in black, with the small bridge between them.
The environment was quite beautiful, but Shen Hua and Xie Sichen's gazes were not on the flowers, but on the person opposite them, whose lips were the only part of their face visible.
Every cell in Xie Sichen's body was on high alert. For the first time, he had this feeling that the person opposite him was dangerous and utterly disgusted with him.
Although the person wasn't looking at him, it was his intuition, stronger than ever before.
“It’s you.”
"Who are you?"
Two voices rang out almost simultaneously.
In the next instant, Chen Hua stood next to that person, and a swing made of flowers and vines appeared. The person helped her onto it.
Xie Sichen also moved at that moment, but the bridge seemed very long, and he couldn't reach the camera no matter what he did.
"Xiao Hua, did you come here because you want to know what happened in Wuren Village?"
Shen Hua nodded and said, "I want to, but he..."
She pointed at Xie Sichen and said, "He's my friend. I'm not afraid of trouble. Could you please let him go?"
The man didn't even look in that direction. With a wave of his hand, Xie Sichen came over. Just as he was about to fight the man, Chen Hua stopped him.
This person is invincible here; Xie Sichen will only suffer losses by doing this.
"Xie Sichen, he meant no harm, you..."
At this point, Xie Sichen understood without Shen Hua saying anything more. He wasn't simple-minded; it was just that he couldn't help but act impulsively when Shen Hua was involved.
Although the person didn't move, they still watched the man warily, ready to strike at the slightest movement.
"Don't look at me like that. We are one, and I know exactly what you're thinking."
After saying these shocking words to Xie Sichen, he walked behind Shen Hua, then waved his hand, and a large scene appeared in front of them.
The story begins when Mu Xiaoyu encounters the rat demon.
Mu Xiaoyu is a lively and cheerful girl, but she is not very brave. She is most afraid of soft-bodied animals, but no one knows this, and she hides it very well.
One day, she changed. On the surface, nothing seemed to have changed, but when she went out, she saw an injured and unconscious mouse. She was very worried and ran over to pick up the mouse in her hands and take it back to treat it.
This rat is not afraid of strangers. When it woke up, it just opened its eyes and looked at her curiously. When Mu Xiaoyu changed its medicine and fed it, it was very well-behaved.
As time went on, the mouse never left her side, and Mu Xiaoyu often became weak. Sometimes, the mouse seemed to have a lot to do and would often go out.
When the mouse left, Mu Xiaoyu was afraid of caterpillars and other soft-bodied animals. This fear extended to dogs, and she even changed the way people looked at her. But she remembered these memories and thought that her pet should have a name, so she named it Yan Yi. She didn't know why, but she wasn't afraid when she thought about those memories, but she was afraid when she saw them with her own eyes.
One was lively and cheerful yet timid, while the other was bold, gentle, and understanding, yet no one noticed, not even the mouse.
It was as if they were two people. One day, Mu Xiaoyu accidentally found out that the mouse she was raising could draw human figures. She was terrified. If it could draw human figures, wasn't that a demon?
She was somewhat afraid of him, yet also afraid that he would be discovered. Unbeknownst to her, the human and the demon developed different feelings for each other.
She was waiting for him to make it clear that he was looking for a way to reconcile the differences between humans and demons, that he had discovered her frail health, which was why he often had to go out, and that spending too much time with her would shorten her lifespan.
What he wanted was for the two of them to live forever together, not just to have her for a short time.
One day, he found a clue and went to investigate, which took several months.
Mu Xiaoyu, who was at home, did not feel the same affection they had for each other. She only had the memory, but not the emotional connection. Since neither of them had said anything, she didn't know.
Once, she went out and rescued Jia Jue. Instead of taking him back, she fed him some food and water, bandaged his wounds, and left after he woke up.
Later, Jia Jue often came to see her, but she didn't pay much attention to him. However, somehow Jia Jue and his wife found out about this and came over to give her a warning.
The warning was only given for a few days before the Jia family came to present betrothal gifts. The wedding was scheduled for soon. She preferred free marriage and knew she didn't like Jia Jue, so she didn't want to marry him. But how could she just decide to do it if she didn't want to?
After all her efforts, her family faced numerous obstacles, and she had no choice but to agree.
On their wedding night, Yan Yi barged in. The bold and kind-hearted Mu Xiaoyu was back. Because of Yan Yi's departure, she didn't even look at him and said many hurtful things.
Yan Yi got angry, so he slept with Mu Xiaoyu in front of Jia Jue.
That's how it seemed to Mu Xiaoyu and Jia Jue, but in reality, Yan Yi didn't touch her. Instead, he held her and cast an illusion on both of them.
He wanted to see if she still loved him, and whether Jia Jue would accept her as she was.
Faced with his humiliation, Mu Xiaoyu initially resisted, but later she showed no resistance and even took the initiative.
This section only shows the text; the man did not show the scene, even though it was just a dream.
