Chapter 46: Picking up flowers in the morning and evening 16
The morning light flowed down the eaves like melted honey.
The first things to be brightened were the wooden lattices of the windows, with gold threads running along the edges of the carvings and gradually spreading over the folds of the velvet curtains.
The thick fabric shone slightly, filtering the light into fine gold powder. The spots of light that came through the gaps in the curtains cast mottled shadows on the tatami.
Geto Xia Yu sat sideways on the edge of the bed, his half-loose bun lazily hanging down at the side of his neck. A strand of black hair fell in front of his eyes, just resting on his slightly narrowed fox eyes, trembling slightly with his breathing.
"Wu, it's time to wake up. Didn't you say you were going to pick up two new students?"
His fingertips sank into the soft skin, and the touch felt like poking into a ball of fresh snow. The half-loose bun slid to the side as he leaned over.
The young man curled up in the dark quilt, his white hair scattered on the pillow like a layer of frost, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and distant.
"Wu, get up." Geto Suguru called out again in a low voice.
However, the only answer he got was still silence.
Xia Yujie frowned slightly and reached out to lift the quilt.
The moment the cursed power in the palm of his hand touched Gojo Satoru's skin,
It surged into the young man's body, but that tall and strong body did not react at all.
“Satoru…?”
Geto Suguru's heart trembled, and he quickly retracted his cursed power.
Only at this moment did he truly realize that he was not dreaming!
Something really happened to Wu.
As far as he knew, in the world of spells, the spell power of each sorcerer varied greatly due to their different talents in the spells, and the properties of the spell power also varied greatly.
Except for Glass, who is born with the ability to reverse, the cursed power between any two magicians has a repulsive effect.
When Wu's cursed power was able to resonate with his own, forcing the reversal technique that could only work on himself to be transferred to share and heal him, he was caught off guard and was defeated by him in one move.
Now it seems that Wu's technique is too special, which suppressed the rebound effect of his own technique, making his counterattack ineffective.
Is this sudden coma also caused by him?
Xia Yujie didn't dare to think any further. He took a deep breath, suppressed all his thoughts, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and dialed the number he thought he would never contact again.
"Jie Jun?" The great elder on the other end of the line looked at the phone that had been connected but had not made any sound for a long time. His old face was full of solemnity, his brows seemed to be twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川", and his voice was filled with a hint of cautious temptation.
When the two of them made the deal behind Gojo Satoru's back, they left their phone number out of caution, but he never thought that there would actually be a day when he would actually receive it.
After all, when Lord Wu discovered their deal and reacted violently, displaying his absolute strength and authority and forcing them to reveal Geto Suguru's whereabouts, their deal had been unilaterally terminated by him.
Now, he received a call from Geto Xiayou...
"Great Elder, I'm sorry to bother you again. I hope you won't mind."
Xia Yujie glanced back at Gojo Satoru, his Adam's apple rolling up and down, his eyes looking into the distance, as if he was pondering his words, "Do you have time now?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line before a deep, hoarse voice came through: "It's about Master Wu, right?"
The voice sounded like it had been polished by sandpaper, revealing suppressed fatigue and a hint of tension.
“It’s really about Wu.”
Geto Suguru stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring at the clear sky of Kanagawa, and his brows reflected in the glass became deeper and deeper.
He pursed his thin lips tightly and then relaxed them, finally uttering this answer, with an imperceptible tremor in the ending tone.
"It's hard to explain over the phone. Can you come to the old house in Kyoto so we can discuss it in detail?"
The Great Elder leaned forward slightly, his tone unconsciously becoming heavier, a hint of urgency ignited in his eyes.
Lord Wu is their backbone and their absolute support in facing Zenin Kamo and the General Headquarters. Without Lord Wu's absolute strength supporting them, their Gojo family would have fallen under the attack of Zenin Kamo and the General Headquarters long ago!
The people of the Gojo family are not afraid of death, but what they fear is that if Gojo Satoru dies, the foundation of the family will be completely destroyed by the Zen temple, and the family will never recover and become history.
So no matter what, they can't let anything happen to Lord Wu, absolutely not!
Geto Suguru slowly loosened his grip on the phone and looked back at Gojo Satoru in the room.
"good!"
After pondering for a moment, Geto Suguru finally agreed.
At least when it comes to protecting Wu, Gojo can be trusted now.
"Then I will send someone to Kanagawa now. Please wait a moment, Jie-kun."
The Great Elder breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered people to prepare vehicles and personally led people to Kanagawa.
Geto Xia Yu looked at the dark screen, sighed softly, turned around and walked back to the bed.
Gojo Satoru was still sleeping soundly, breathing evenly, and even had a faint smile on his face.
Geto Xia Yu leaned over and put his forehead against his, with infinite tenderness in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Wu, I will definitely rescue you."
He muttered softly to himself.
......
Three hours later.
The car started and slowly drove away from Kanagawa.
The street outside the window receded little by little, and the scenery was quickly isolated outside the glass.
Geto Suguru lowered his eyes and looked at Gojo Satoru who rested his head on his legs.
Make up your mind secretly.
Wu, I will definitely find that person and make him pay the price.
His eyes became firm, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across them.
The car door opened and several neatly dressed men quickly got out and stood by the car waiting respectfully.
Geto Suguru got out of the driver's seat and looked up at the majestic ancient mansion in front of him, his eyes filled with high fighting spirit and determination.
He stepped through the gate and walked through the spacious and bright courtyard.
"Jie Jun."
A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Geto Suguru turned around suddenly.
I saw Gojo Shuhei walking towards me with a crutch, his face pale and his spirit listless.
"We've found a clue as to why Master Wu is in a coma, but..."
"Why?" Geto Xiayou quickly walked over, held Gojo Osamu's arms, and asked anxiously.
"It's a curse left behind by the realm of time. Although the world has been turned upside down, the original established facts have not been completely changed.
"The intertwined timeline of the past and future still exists, creating a chaotic state of time that cannot be integrated. As the delineation point between the two chaotic times, Wu's thoughts are also implicated and trapped on the object that supports one of the chaotic times, which is why he fell into a coma.
“If we want to resolve Master Wu’s coma, we must first unravel the timeline on him, or break the time vortex, before we can wake him up.
"However, our current strength is not enough to break it, so we hope that Jie Jun can help us so that we can find the key to these two as soon as possible. I wonder if Jie has any memory?"
After listening to his explanation, Xia Yujie's heart, which had been hanging in the air, gradually settled back into his stomach.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and several images flashed through his mind.
"Yumenjiang, if we find it, perhaps our doubts will be explained..."
