Chapter 84 Chapter 84 A kiss fell on the corner of his lips. …
The young master has always been calm and composed, and rarely shows such a depressed, uneasy and hesitant expression.
Although Jiang Yan was curious, this was not a convenient time to talk.
He could only pat the man on the shoulder and comfort him kindly: "Don't worry, this matter will be resolved soon."
Gu Jingyun: "..."
When will Ayan stop hugging him like a "good brother"?
Time waits for no one.
The tracking spell has its limits, and everyone was afraid that the prey would escape, so they hurriedly sped up their actions.
Even in the dark night, dark clouds could be seen rolling in from afar. The bright moon hid in the clouds, and the visibility on the ground became even lower. Looking around, there was only one campsite beside the official road.
I don’t know what magic they used.
There were few torches, but the camp was enveloped in a faint orange glow. There was no bonfire in the center of the camp, and except for a few guards on guard, everyone else seemed to be staying in their tents to avoid the rain.
Under the warm light, there are many figures.
Little did they know that it was just a cover.
The real large force had already set out. They hid in the woods, turned around, and headed for the grave where Xia Wenji's body was buried.
In the same direction as them were the demon cultivators who had followed them all the way.
Gu Jingyun and others were extremely fast, cooperated well throughout the whole process, and were well-trained.
While the demon cultivator was still panting on the way, Gu Jingyun and Jiang Yan had already led their men to the small hill in advance and ambushed at the location they had scouted before.
In order to avoid being noticed by the demon cultivators and encountering them head-on, they even took a detour.
Even this is much faster than others.
When the first drop of rain fell on Jiang Yan's face, he looked up at the dark sky through the gaps between the treetops.
There was a faint flash of lightning across the sky.
"It's raining...and it looks like there will be thunder." Jiang Yan murmured, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
A raincoat was shaken open and draped over the young man's shoulders. Gu Jingyun held a bamboo hat in his hand and wanted to help him put it on.
Jiang Yan shrank back slightly and avoided it: "Brother, don't do this."
He reached out and pulled off the raincoat from his shoulders.
Gu Jingyun frowned: "It's easy to catch a cold if you get caught in the rain."
Jiang Yan: "But I have something better."
Gu Jingyun watched in silence as the young man took out a dozen wide, black robes with hoods.
The sack is back!
Jiang Yan held a thick pile of clothes with difficulty.
The mountain of clothes almost covered half of his face.
How can I free my hands to grab the wand like this?
Jiang Yan had no choice but to ask for help: "... someone come and help me hold it, I can't hold it anymore!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yan's arms were empty, and Gu Jingyun had already neatly taken all the clothes.
Ji Ziheng and Song Hua hurriedly took over, each holding half, and looked at Jiang Yan with blank faces.
"My Lord, what are these sacks used for?"
Jiang Yan: “…”
Jiang Yan calmed down for a while, raised his wand, and chanted a short spell softly to the magic robe.
It's not some advanced magic.
But it is a necessary magic for a thunderstorm, especially when - there is wet soil under their feet and countless tall trees above their heads.
A fluorescent light lit up from the tip of the wand, floated out, split into two, and landed on two piles of robes.
Jiang Yan put away his wand.
"Give some to everyone to protect against rain and lightning." Jiang Yan reminded everyone while taking one for himself.
He didn't put it on himself, but turned around and handed it to Gu Jingyun.
Gu Jingyun: "...Do I want one too?"
He didn’t want to wear a sack.
"Everyone has to wear it." Jiang Yan insisted.
Just like Gu Jingyun put on the straw raincoat for him before, the young man took the initiative to help Gu Jingyun put on the robe without any objection.
The man was tall and had long legs, so Jiang Yan had to stand on tiptoe, hold up the clothes, and stretch his arms. He complained, "Brother, bend down a little. How can I help you put on your clothes like this?"
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Who can refuse this?
Gu Jingyun bent down and cooperated with Jiang Yan to help him put on the black robe that had no aesthetic appeal at all.
So what if the sack doesn't look good.
If Ayan wanted to trick him, he would definitely cooperate actively.
Very obedient.
Jiang Yan reached out to pull at the uneven part of his sleeve, then stood on tiptoe to help the man put on his hood.
The beauty was busy around the young master, which made people jealous. Especially the young master's expression of "I enjoy it but I won't say it", any man would want to punch him twice to make him feel proud!
The guards all turned their heads away, feeling that if they continued watching, they would be committing an offense.
The same is true for Ji Ziheng and Song Hua.
Can the young master take a look in the mirror? He looks like he doesn't want money! A man in love is really ugly.
The young man had delicate eyebrows and a serious expression, and his fingers were slender, white as he helped Gu Jingyun to fix his clothes and hair.
Gu Jingyun was struck by the beauty at such a close distance that his breathing stagnated and he stared at Jiang Yan intently.
Jiang Yan was stunned: "Is there something on my face?"
Gu Jingyun nodded calmly: "There's a little dust on my cheek."
Jiang Yan rubbed it with the back of his hand: "Now?"
"And more." said Gu Jingyun.
Could it be that I accidentally got it while running around in the woods just now?
Jiang Yan rubbed his cheeks with both hands and rubbed them hard.
With a slightly red face (from rubbing himself), he looked up and asked, "Brother, what's going on now?"
Gu Jingyun was almost fainted by her cuteness.
He said shamelessly: "You didn't rub it clean."
Jiang Yan let out a soft "ah" and looked down at the palms and backs of his hands.
Even in the dim night, the young man's skin was so white that it seemed to be emitting a glowing luster.
Jiang Yan has good night vision and he kept looking at his hands over and over again.
There was no gray at all.
"Is it true? Brother is not lying to trick me." Jiang Yan asked doubtfully.
The man looked sincere: "When have I ever lied to you?"
Too.
Jiang Yan took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Gu Jingyun's hand.
"Then help me wipe it."
"Okay. Close your eyes and don't let the dust get into your eyes." Gu Jingyun said.
Jiang Yan said "Oh" and closed his eyes obediently.
Gu Jingyun held the young man's face with one hand and held a soft handkerchief in the other hand, carefully wiping Jiang Yan's clean face.
Ji Ziheng: “…”
Song Hua: “…”
Who can stop this? There is a daring hooligan here, taking advantage of the darkness to take advantage of the Immortal Lord!
Gu Jingyun touched Jiang Yan openly for a long time.
Using a handkerchief and the tips of her fingers, she gently and circularly touched Jiang Yan's cheeks, forehead, and eyebrows.
It seemed as if she was really helping the young man wipe his face with a handkerchief.
Jiang Yan: “…”
I started to feel a little uncomfortable.
How long will you keep touching!
Is there really dust on his face?
Jiang Yan became suspicious again, and at this moment, Gu Jingyun took back the handkerchief.
When he was withdrawing his hand, he used his handkerchief to lightly rub the leaves next to him. His movement was so quick that there was almost an afterimage.
A group of people were sorting their clothes, and there were constant rustling sounds in the woods.
Jiang Yan didn't notice anything unusual and asked, "Is it done?"
Gu Jingyun: "Yeah."
Jiang Yan opened his eyes and Gu Jingyun showed him the inside of the handkerchief.
"Well." Gu Jingyun said, "I didn't lie, did I?"
Jiang Yan looked closely and saw that there was indeed a dark gray streak on it.
Almost blamed a good person.
Jiang Yan nodded shyly: "Thank you, brother."
"You're welcome." Gu Jingyun responded frankly despite the silent questioning of his two subordinates, "Do you have any shame?"
Thunder was heard faintly in the sky, and the raindrops as thin as hair began to grow larger, and then bean-sized raindrops fell.
Song Hua held the last robe in his hand.
"Xianjun, you should change quickly too."
Jiang Yan reached out to take it, but Gu Jingyun got there first.
"It's only a matter of reciprocity. I'll help you." The man said calmly.
"Oh." Jiang Yan didn't feel anything strange and was even a little happy.
Isn’t this a model of brotherly love and respect?
Song Hua rolled his eyes at the young master in a disrespectful manner. Not wanting to watch the sweet love between the young couple anymore, he covered his aching eyes and hid in the corner.
Ji Ziheng hesitated for a long time and chose to shut up under the threatening look of the young master that said "You're done if you dare to expose me".
never mind.
He actually just wanted to say that even when being touched and pinched at close range, Xianjun didn't even have his breathing disordered. He still treats you as a good brother, what are you so proud of.
I dare not say it, for fear that the young master would bear a grudge against me and make things difficult for me.
The young master used to be broad-minded and would not easily get angry even if his subordinates sabotaged him on the spot.
It’s not necessarily the case now!
…
The group of people wore robes and sacks to protect against wind, rain and lightning, and each of them found a hidden corner to wait.
Gu Jingyun and Jiang Yan stayed on the tree.
The night was already cold, and it was raining.
Jiang Yan blew a breath into his palm and rubbed his hands.
"Cold?" Gu Jingyun asked.
"A little bit." Jiang Yan replied.
Gu Jingyun reached out to hold his hand and felt the coldness on the young man's fingertips.
He frowned.
"Why not use the Earth Fire Bead?" Gu Jingyun took out the bead and placed it in Jiang Yan's palm.
The Earth Fire Pearl is like a night-shining pearl, emitting a circle of orange light. At night, especially in dim places, its presence is fully felt.
Jiang Yan quickly covered his palm tightly, but the warm light still leaked out from the gap between his palms.
"It's too bright." He said, and was about to put the Earth Fire Bead back into the Sumeru Ring.
"Just use your sleeves to block it."
Gu Jingyun stopped him and asked, "How far is the demon cultivator?"
Jiang Yan felt the pull of magic.
"There's still an incense stick of time left... For him, it might take half an hour."
Gu Jingyun was dissatisfied. Did that person's leg break? He was walking too slowly!
"Ji Ziheng and I will catch a bear or a wolf and put it behind him to force him to run faster."
Jiang Yan: "...Where can you find a wolf at night? Please don't embarrass Lord Ji."
Gu Jingyun said straightforwardly: "Okay, leave them to protect you. I'll go alone, it will be faster."
"Don't!" Jiang Yan said helplessly, "Just wait a little longer, why bother making things complicated?"
After much persuasion, Gu Jingyun was finally persuaded to come down.
Gu Jingyun: "I don't want you to get wet in the rain."
The robe is rainproof, so even if it is wet on the outside, it is dry and warm on the inside.
Jiang Yan thought about it, then took out a new robe, tore it apart at the joints, and made it into a rainproof cloth similar to oilcloth.
He pulled Gu Jingyun's hand, and the two of them held one corner each, put up the rainproof cloth, and got in together.
Black cloth hung around the two of them, and the raindrops hit the cloth above their heads, like a natural music.
In an instant, everything became quiet, as if they were the only two people left in the world.
The man lowered his eyes and looked intently at the young man's eyebrows.
Jiang Yan was like a small animal busy building a nest. He used his wand to cast a cleansing spell one moment and a warming spell the next.
Reach out and pull at the tarp to make sure it's strong enough.
She leaned towards Gu Jingyun again, so that their shoulders were touching and their calves were touching each other's legs.
The rain on their outer robes was carried away by magic, Jiang Yan's cold body warmed up, and his limbs slowly regained consciousness.
The torn robes were like a small quilt that blocked out the light from inside. But they were sitting high up in the tree, and the light inside was too bright, so they could see the light leaking out from under the tree.
It’s not cold anymore anyway.
Jiang Yan put away the Earth Fire Pearl.
The small space under the awning suddenly became pitch black, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.
Jiang Yan realized belatedly: "...It seems that we still need some light."
Jiang Yan took out his magic wand and thought of using a miniature lighting technique. It didn't need to be very big, a few points of light like fireflies would be enough.
The rainproof cloth held up by two people suddenly tilted, but the angle was not large and the movement was very light.
Jiang Yan still subconsciously turned his head: "Why..."
He stopped abruptly.
A kiss brushed across Jiang Yan's cheek and landed on the corner of his lips.
Jiang Yan opened his eyes wide.
Gu Jingyun did not expect Jiang Yan to suddenly turn around.
He froze in place, his whole body tense and motionless.
Their foreheads were close together, and their eyes had adjusted to the darkness. At such a close distance, they could already see each other's faces.
Jiang Yan stared blankly into the man's dark eyes.
The lips pressed against his lips were warm, yet they burned into Jiang Yan's heart. It was as if after a moment of silence, the blood in his limbs and bones was boiling because of this sudden kiss.
He could hear his own heart beating like a drum.
