Chapter 152 I should cooperate with your performance~
No matter how crazy her inner demons tried to stop Jiang Jiu, she remained unshaken.
The decision she made was difficult to change.
However, contrary to Jiang Jiu's expectations, Ji Chen did not come to see her for a long time. Instead, Fo Jiang, who had not appeared for a long time, suddenly appeared in the Seven Political Temple.
"Long time no see."
Jiang Jiu froze in his tracks as he closed the door, a dazed look on his face and a hesitant tone in his voice.
She always felt that the Buddha nature in Fojiang seemed stronger than last time. She always felt that every time she saw him, he would make great progress. There was a holy and inviolable aura lingering around him, which made Jiang Jiu feel ashamed.
"It's been a long time indeed."
Fo Jiang nodded slightly, his eyes as clear as glass. He looked up at her, as if he could see through her from the inside out. The evil thoughts in her heart were completely exposed, making her feel ashamed.
After greeting each other, no one spoke and the atmosphere was quiet and silent.
Until Fo Jiang chuckled softly, then reached out and pressed his hand on Jiang Jiu's head with a helpless look.
"?"
Jiang Jiu's eyes widened when he was touched on the head. He didn't understand what Fo Jiang wanted to do or what he meant.
"It's been a long time since I last saw you. Do you feel strange?"
Fo Jiang's gentle voice fell into my ears, like a gentle breeze blowing, and my soul seemed to be healed.
"No...how are you doing lately?"
After meeting again after a long time, Jiang Jiu's eyes were vague and he asked politely.
"Of course... it's not good."
Fo Jiang looked at Jiang Jiu, deliberately dragging out the syllables, admiring Jiang Jiu's subtle expressions, and finally made an unexpected turn.
"ah?"
Jiang Jiu uttered a meaningless syllable in a daze, his expression was cute and stupid, as if he didn't expect Fo Jiang to say that.
"You were abducted by the Immortal Lord, who has not yet allowed me to see you. I am living a miserable life."
Fo Jiang spoke in a holy and serious voice, saying words that were almost flirtatious, which made Jiang Jiu's old face blush.
"It was my fault."
Jiang Jiu had two wide noodles of tears in her heart. Every day she was either being forced to love or on the way to being forced to love. She had no mind to take the initiative to find Fo Jiang to report her safety.
"Just kidding."
Seeing Jiang Jiu's autistic look, Fo Jiang patted Jiang Jiu's head and laughed softly.
“What…”
Hearing this, Jiang Jiu instantly realized that she had been fooled. She immediately curled her lips, turned her head away, and pretended not to pay attention to Fo Jiang.
Fo Jiang restrained his expression and sighed faintly.
"I want to protect your safety, but I need enough strength, so I'm practicing in seclusion."
Jiang Jiu was so moved by these words that she didn't know whether to call it touching or awkward. Fo Jiang wouldn't lie, and his words came from the heart, but this made her feel even more upset.
"You don't have to work so hard."
Jiang Jiu lowered his eyes, not daring to look into Fo Jiang's eyes, and persuaded him in a low voice.
"If I cannot protect the woman I love, not only will the Buddha abandon me, I will also be disgusted with myself."
Fo Jiang's tone was gentle and firm. She thought that a saint with a pure heart like Fo Jiang could do so much, but she could not give Fo Jiang anything, which made Jiang Jiu feel even more guilty and humble.
"Ahem."
Jiang Jiu turned his head and pretended to choke, not wanting to respond to Fo Jiang.
Call her a quail or a coward, anyway, let her escape for a while. It will only take a little while, and she will probably leave this world... or die as a goddess in a foreign land.
That's right, Jiang Jiu chose to accept her fate without any resentment or hatred. She didn't want to become a monster like the alien demon, neither human nor ghost, nor did she want to sacrifice the lives of the entire world to be buried with her.
Speaking of which, she came to this world due to sudden death. Even if there was no heaven, she would be a cold corpse now.
Rather, it was God who gave her the opportunity to experience the new world again, even though the experience wasn't so good...
"Be careful."
Fo Jiang gently stroked Jiang Jiu's back, and his gentle expression seemed to want to drown him.
This made Jiang Jiu, who was pretending to be so serious, feel even more guilty.
"I'm fine now! And you also know about the extraterritorial demons, right?"
Jiang Jiu quickly stood up and changed the subject, not wanting Fo Jiang to dwell on what had just happened.
"I know, and I came here to protect you."
As Fo Jiang spoke, even his eyebrows were tinged with seriousness.
“Cough cough cough!”
This time, the ginger wine really choked me.
Why is it that when he meets Fo Jiang this time, every word he says sounds like a confession!
She felt increasingly uncomfortable.
"How can you be so careless?"
Buddha's light with healing effect lit up at Fojiang's fingertips, and in just a moment, Jiang Jiu's cough was cured.
But Jiang Jiu was not happy. She just felt that her social death had doubled.
Because last time she pretended to cough, Fo Jiang didn't use Buddha Light, but this time she really choked, so he used it.
So, he just saw through her little thoughts and cooperated with her performance!
Now it's time to play a song called 'Actor' to highlight her sad mood.
“…”
This realization broke Jiang Jiu's heart, and he even had the urge to close the door and retreat back into bed.
"I have learned the whole story from the fox. I think it is not possible. You should rest well in the next period of time."
Fo Jiang spoke gently, but his tone was unquestionable, which made Jiang Jiu feel rebellious.
"I don't want it."
Jiang Jiu interrupted Fo Jiang's next arrangement without hesitation and looked at Fo Jiang with burning eyes.
She knew that Fo Jiang was doing this for her own good, and so was Chi Li, but she was not a flower in a greenhouse. She had her own thoughts and her own code of conduct, and no one could stop her.
"Does Bai Ze know that you came to see me?"
Jiang Jiu asked back.
“I never knew.”
Fo Jiang shook his head.
"If even Bai Ze feels that this crisis can only be resolved by me, then any other efforts will be in vain."
"You want me to be safe and sound, and I naturally want to do the same. I don't want you to be in danger."
Jiang Jiu didn't say anything harsh.
She didn't want Fojiang to relive the scene of his near death, nor did she want Chili to hurt his tail, which he loved so much, for her.
She doesn't want anyone to sacrifice for her.
She felt she couldn't afford to repay it.
“…”
Fo Jiang listened to Jiang Jiu's solemn rebuttal. He was not unhappy at all. He just felt that the Jiang Jiu in front of him seemed to be the same as the Jiang Jiu in his memory of his previous life, but not exactly the same.
Even now, she has changed a lot compared to when I first met her during the Cultivation Competition.
"Why don't you say anything..."
Seeing that Fo Jiang was silent for a long time, but was looking at him intently with his clear eyes, Jiang Jiu inexplicably didn't want to continue talking, and his voice became smaller and smaller. Finally, he asked in a whisper.
"Nothing, I just feel...nothing."
Fo Jiang pondered for a moment, but ultimately couldn't find a suitable adjective. He could only smile at Jiang Jiu, as if he wanted to engrave Jiang Jiu's current appearance in his mind.
