Chapter 70 Snow Charm
Jiang Yuyan disappeared early in the morning, which made Shen Yi lose his mind for once.
Usually, she would let him know where she was going when she went out occasionally. But today was unusual.
He sat in the clinic in a casual manner, his mind absent.
After all, there was no promise between the two of them, so why should she report everything to him?
However, this duplicity man was soon slapped in the face.
Shen Yi flipped open the medical records recorded by Jiang Yuyan a few days ago. At the very end of the scroll, his name was densely written in all directions.
That was the affection and response she had never expressed.
Shen Yi couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
He couldn't describe what he felt at that moment. Joy, excitement, bitterness, melancholy... all kinds of emotions mixed together, blending into the sea of consciousness and finally turning into a thick and hot tide of emotions, burning his heart and trembling.
Shen Yi stood up awkwardly. He thought of her past of running away without making any noise, and his heart was in a mess.
It seemed that all the frustration and entanglement before had become irrelevant, as long as she was still by his side at this moment...
The body is faster than the brain, and in the blink of an eye the person is already several steps away.
Seeing this, Shen Fu hurriedly followed, "Hey, where are you going, sir?"
Shen Yi walked quickly and said, "Go to the east to find Cang Lan." Then he disappeared.
…………
The shore of Lingyan Lake at dusk.
The flute music suddenly stopped, and everything was silent. The melodious music made the crows and sparrows by the lake forget to fly away and stand still quietly.
Jiang Yuyan let out a light breath and smiled slightly.
"Crack~"
She heard the sound of footsteps on dead branches behind her and slowly turned her head.
Shen Yi, with his robes fluttering, stood not far away, gazing at her quietly. His eyes were not as indifferent as usual, but rather deep and distant, as if hiding a myriad of thoughts.
Jiang Yuyan was so surprised that her lips slightly opened. She tightened her grip on the jade flute and asked, "What are you doing......"
However, before she could finish her words, she fell into a warm embrace.
Chen Yi held her waist and neck tightly, and didn't say anything for a long time, but his heart was beating like a drum.
Jiang Yuyan was stunned.
Smelling the familiar medicinal scent on him, her stiff body gradually relaxed. She slowly buried her head in his arms and hugged his waist.
The two seemed to say nothing, yet seemed to have said everything.
I don’t know where the love comes from, but it grows deeper and deeper.
Shen Yi sighed inwardly. He had no choice at all until today. He was so anxious that he searched all over Yaoguang Town just because he was worried that she would leave without saying goodbye.
It turned out that without him realizing it, this little girl had already occupied his entire heart.
How could he bear to let her suffer even a little? She was so good, and all the good things in the world should be offered to her with both hands.
"I'll treat your face." Shen Yi lowered his eyes to look at her and gently stroked her hair.
Jiang Yuyan looked up. She clutched the corner of Shen Yi's clothes tightly, her heart beating wildly, "But...but...will it make things difficult for you?"
Jiang Yuyan felt that it must not be that simple, otherwise Shen Yi would not have dragged it on until now.
"Won't."
Shen Yi's heart sank softly. This fool, appearance is so important to a woman, but she always thinks of others first.
"Actually, I've become accustomed to this face. If you have to pay a price, I can't..." Jiang Yuyan lowered her head and said with difficulty.
"It's okay. At most, you can go back and kneel in the ancestral hall for three more days." Shen Yi smiled slightly, "But the process will be very painful. Can you persist?"
"I can!" Jiang Yuyan said firmly.
Will it hurt as much as when my appearance was destroyed? Will it hurt as much as when I had to leave my loved ones and my hometown?
"Okay." Shen Yi nodded solemnly.
When the two returned to Jimin Hall, Shen Yi took out a small bowl of pure gold and cut his middle finger with a dagger. After a few drops of blood, a small transparent insect squeezed out of the wound and fell into the golden bowl.
Jiang Yuyan was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. "What is this?"
She has always been afraid of insects, and if this insect hadn't been so pretty, she would have jumped up.
“This is the secret of my clan’s resurrection of the dead.” Shen Yi said, “Snow Charm.”
Chen Yi grabbed her wrist and cut a small cut without saying anything, using the blood as a guide to get closer to the Snow Charm Insect.
The insect was listless at first, but became extremely excited when it smelled the blood. It sucked blood from Jiang Yuyan's wrist and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"In, in?" Jiang Yuyan looked at her wrist left and right.
"Yes. My clan used to support many snow spirits, but now there is only this one. It is supported by the clan leaders and saints of all generations with the essence and blood of Yuanyang, and is also controlled by the people who support it." Shen Yi explained in a deep voice.
"Then why is it said that it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life?" Jiang Yuyan was puzzled. She felt a chill just thinking about the worm in her body.
"It parasitizes in the human body. My clan has a secret method that can make it spit out a large amount of saliva in a short period of time. This saliva can reshape the bones and flesh, and naturally has the effect of reviving the dead."
After Shen Yi finished speaking, he sat cross-legged behind her, “Remember, no matter how painful it is, don’t touch your face with your hands, so as not to scare it and cause immeasurable consequences.”
Shen Yi used the Lingshu clan's secret skills to lead the Snow Charm to Jiang Yuyan's face and slowly activated it.
Jiang Yuyan felt a little itchy at first, and then she felt the bugs gnawing at her flesh, the pain made her sweat and grit her teeth, and her hands trembled uncontrollably.
"I will let the Snow Charm feed on the flesh and blood on your face, while spitting out saliva to reshape your flesh and blood. The whole process will last for seven days."
Shen Yi's voice came faintly from behind, "If you can't hold on, you can stop now, but it will be even more difficult to drive Xue Mei again."
Jiang Yuyan wanted to scream but didn't dare to. She gritted her teeth and dug her ten fingertips into her flesh. "I...I can bear it..."
It hurts so much, it's more unbearable than being cut by a knife. It feels like cramps and marrow being pulled out every moment.
Jiang Yuyan's hair was soaked. The place on her face where Xue Mei had passed was bloody and fleshy, but it was also rapidly rebuilding.
By the evening, the snow charmer was not as active anymore. Jiang Yuyan's pain eased, but she finally lost her strength and fell into a deep sleep.
However, the familiar pain came again early in the morning. Jiang Yuyan almost couldn't control her tears, but was seriously ordered to stop by Shen Yi.
Jiang Yuyan tilted her head back, tears welling up in her eyes and painful sobs spilling from her mouth.
Chen Yi felt sorry for her after all, so he used golden needles to prick her acupoints to relieve her pain, but this would affect Xue Mei's movements and prolong her recovery period.
It was not until the eighth day that the long torture was over. At this time, Jiang Yuyan's face was red, like a pot of stewed red bean paste.
Shen Yi stared at it intently, as if he wanted to see some traces of his past in this face.
He took out a veil and put it on her, and said, "Cover your face with the veil during this period. Not only can you not see the sun, but you also need to avoid candlelight. You will be back to normal after ten days."
At the end, he seemed to be hesitant to speak, "I have never used this method before. Now it seems that your face may be different after recovery..."
Jiang Yuyan believed in his medical skills. "It's OK. It won't be worse than before."
In fact, she was somewhat looking forward to her new face. It would be better if it was different, so that it would be convenient for her to return to the capital to avenge her past.
Shen Yi opened the door and outside was Shen Fu who had been waiting anxiously.
"Young Master!"
Shen Yi stopped him from speaking with his eyes and walked out.
"Sir, did you give Xue Mei to Cang Lan?"
Shen Fu had not seen Jiang Yuyan leave the room for the past few days. Later, he heard some fragmentary words such as "healing face" and "snow charm". He could not help but worry anxiously, "Young Master, you are confused! This is the sacred object of our clan. If the elders know about it, what will you do?!"
"That's what I, your son, have destined to suffer... You don't have to worry, I will keep you safe when the time comes," Shen Yi comforted.
Chen Fu pouted his lips, feeling angry and anxious, "Young Master is bullying me. Am I a coward? I am just worried about you!" After saying that, he sat down on the bluestone steps, feeling angry.
Chen Yi found it funny, leaned over and rubbed his head, "Okay, okay, good boy~"
"This woman is a disaster!" Shen Fu muttered.
Shen Yi knocked on his head, "Nonsense! Your son is happy, don't embarrass him!"
"snort!"
Shen Fu was quite angry, and Shen Yi had to comfort him for a while before he calmed down. But he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. The road ahead was uncertain!
