Chapter 106 Zhu You's Rebirth I Hug You in Front of the Sacred Mountain
Chu Lin stopped the high priest, seemingly not daring to believe it. His fingertips trembled slightly as he touched Luo Wan's wrist pulse again. After a while, he withdrew his hand silently.
The high priest said, "I said that man was her lover!"
Chu Lin gently placed her hand under the quilt and said calmly, "So what if it is, so what if it is not."
"Bei Ye Si! You're so generous!" The high priest pointed at the woman on the bed. "Your beloved woman wanted to kill you back then, and you let bygones be bygones. But now she's begging you to save her. Anyone is fine, even Jiang Cichen, but this person can't be her lover! What does she think of you? Can she just trample on your feelings like this?"
"Can."
A barely audible sentence.
"What did you say?"
For a moment the high priest thought he was deaf.
Ah Cai relayed the story in a serious tone: "The priest said it was okay."
The high priest said angrily: "I heard it!"
Ah Cai curled her lips.
Chu Lin turned to Ah Cai and said, "There is a prescription for Zhang Fenghan in the medical book on the upper left corner of my desk. Please follow the prescription and get the medicine."
Ah Cai nodded hurriedly: "I'll go now."
There were only three people left in the room, and only two of them could communicate.
The high priest sighed and said calmly, "Ah Si, please stop being so stubborn."
The hot water had just been spilled. Chu Lin turned around to pour another cup. As he passed by the high priest, he said calmly, "If you're okay, go back and rest."
At this point, the high priest was too lazy to persuade him anymore and had no choice but to leave.
It was very late at night, and the moon in the Miao village was particularly bright. There was only one lamp lit in the house, and the wind blew in from the window, filling the room with the fragrance of flowers.
Because of the high fever, Luo Wan's whole body was flushed pink, and his lips were cracked and chapped.
Chu Lin helped her up, put two pillows under her, leaned against the head of the bed, and fed the water in the cup into her mouth.
After feeding her water, I laid her down and was about to go out to see if Acai had returned, when she suddenly unconsciously grasped her sleeve in her hand.
Chu Lin stretched out his hand to pry her fingers apart, but she took his arm into her arms.
He couldn't leave, nor did he want to leave.
The starlight is as tiny as dust, just like the starry sky in the capital back then.
The capital was in danger, and he didn't want to drag her into the conflict.
On the day of the palace banquet, she wandered into the plum garden and was only separated from him in the warm room by a wall. However, he did not dare to show up and could only order Yuan Jinbao to take her away.
Hearing that she was engaged to the Pei family as Chi Wanwan, he finally couldn't hold back and just wanted to see her from afar.
Now, she really belongs to someone else.
Chu Lin felt his arm being tightened, and his voice was hoarse: "I am more than just stubborn."
He almost asked the sleeping person in a ridiculous way whether he really liked Jiang Cichen.
But how can someone like her have a child with someone she doesn't like?
He had no idea what she and that man had experienced in the past year and a half.
He felt a little regretful that he didn't let the secret guards monitor her.
But if she was really being monitored, she would definitely be unhappy.
She really likes Jiang Cichen, but what about him?
Did you want to kill him in the first place because you had fallen in love with Jiang Cichen in the capital?
Ah Cai came back with the medicine bag and saw Chu Lin sitting on the edge of the bed, leaning forward slightly, just to let the person on the bed hold his arm better.
The girls in the village no longer need to come and ask what kind of girls the priest likes.
Now, she knew it all.

Luo Wan slept until noon before waking up. She propped up her weak body and sat up. Although her back and waist ached, her mind was much clearer than yesterday.
Ah Cai brought the food into the room. Seeing that she had woken up, she smiled and said, "Are you feeling better? You had a high fever last night, and the priest stayed by your bedside all night."
"Fever?" Luo Wan frowned. "Chu Lin took care of me all night?"
Ah Cai nodded. "The old man you brought with you came to check your pulse this morning and said you were too busy these past few days, and that you sweated and were caught in the wind yesterday."
"Come and eat." Ah Cai spread the food on the table. "You haven't eaten anything this morning."
Luo Wan's steps were unsteady. When she was sitting at the table and eating, she was stared at by A Cai, who was leaning her elbows on the table, which made her feel very confused.
She stopped eating with her chopsticks, looked up and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Ah Cai smiled secretly and pushed the plate in front of Luo Wan to cover it up. "Eat more and you will get more nutrition."
Luo Wan no longer cared about Acai's little girl's thoughts. He quickly finished his meal, picked up two books and went to find Qingyun.
The book was filled with foreign languages. Luo Wan always got a headache when she read books. There were more than 300 points of attention, and it was really tiring for her to translate them word for word.
Qingyun also got a copy from somewhere. He started reading it early in the morning and took notes in Chinese characters.
He looked from the front, and Luo Wan started from the middle.
I translated all day long, day and night, and translated nearly a hundred articles over two days.
Luo Wan gradually realized that these matters had already permeated every aspect of her life after she was detoxified in her previous life, but she had never paid attention to them.
And the one who has been paying attention to all this is Chu Lin.
More than 300 items, how did he do them all?
Luo Wan hasn't seen Chu Lin in the past two days.
Ah Cai informed him that the priest was in seclusion, which was a euphemism for retreat, but in reality it was confinement.
Luo Wan was surprised and said, "Isn't he already a priest? Why is he being put in solitary confinement?"
"If you make a mistake, you'll be put in solitary confinement."
"Is it because he saved outsiders?"
A Cai shook her head and smiled secretly again.

On the third day, the book had been translated to the end, and Luo Wan could make out the simple words at a glance.
For example, she could easily translate the five words "those who have mastered this technique".
But complex characters require more effort. For example, the five characters "鳏寡孤孤" (widowed, lonely, miserable) will take more than three times the time.
Luo Wan rubbed his waist, and his movements froze instantly.
After a moment, she realized something and translated it again, still saying "Those who learn this technique will be widowed, lonely and miserable."
Feeling confused, Luo Wan went to ask Qingyun who was standing beside him.
Qingyun stared at it for a while before saying, "Don't worry about it, OP. I've discovered this before. This book not only records the precautions after planting the Child-Mother Gu, but also other Miao secret techniques. This sentence isn't referring to the Child-Mother Gu, but the Miao Zhuyou technique."
"Zhu You Shu?"
Qingyun nodded: "I was curious, so I looked it up and studied it. Zhuyoushu is about the art of bringing the dead back to life."
These words were like thunder in Luo Wan's ears. His whole body trembled, and the scroll in his hand fell to the ground.
“Has anyone ever succeeded?”
When this sentence rang out in the room, she realized that she had asked the question.
Qingyun pondered and said, "It's hard to tell whether it's true or not, but the book records the self-narration of a female priestess from the Miao border. She was reborn through the art of incantation."
"Just like my previous life, I died at the hands of bandits. Our ending remains unchanged. This is my second rebirth.
After being reborn again, I tried to change my fate, but still couldn't avoid falling in love with him, so I wanted to change the inevitable death and stay with him forever.
If you've read this far, I've succeeded.
Because this time it was not me but him who fell under the knife of the bandits.
Until a new priest takes the throne, I will protect the Miao border on his behalf."
After a long while, Luo Wan whispered, "Do you believe in resurrection from the dead?"
Everything is vague, but there is no need to be too clear. She should have figured it out the day Chu Lin killed Su Qinghuan for her.
Luo Wan left the house without waiting for Qingyun's answer. She wanted to go to Shensi, but stopped when she passed by Chu Lin's house.
Even in the Miao village, he still maintained his old habits. The books on the desk were neatly stacked in the upper left corner, but there were signs of them having been flipped through.
She sat down at the desk in a daze, and caught a glimpse of a thick stack of rice paper that was originally pressed under the book.
The wind blew, and a piece of paper fluttered down in front of her. Luo Wan flipped through it casually, and saw her name densely written on the pile of rice paper, over and over again.
There was a loud bang in her heart.
In front of the God's heir, the red door is closed.
She and Chu Lin were only separated by a wall.
Luo Wan tried to convince herself that other people's stories were not enough to prove that her rebirth was related to Chu Lin.
She could never figure out why Chu Lin used the Zhuyou technique, as she was clearly not dead.
Her death was even caused by him and Su Qinghuan.
Is it regret?
This is not like Chu Lin's style. People like him are always thoughtful about their words and actions and follow their heart.
He would never do anything he would regret, and it was even more impossible for him to feel regret after taking her life.
"The baby Gu will also die within six months after the mother Gu dies. You should take good care of it. Don't blame me if it dies one day."
However, the events of the previous life could no longer be traced back, and everything was just speculation. She only knew a little.
Chu Lin will not change.
Luo Wan stood quietly in front of the door for a moment before slowly raising his hand, patting the red door, and saying to the person inside, "Chu Lin, open the door."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened from the inside.
Since his rebirth, Luo Wan had rarely looked this "enemy" in the eye, but only now did he truly see him clearly.
The young man took off his usual hair crown, and his black hair was half scattered on his shoulders, which was very different from the past.
What has not changed is that her black hair is still adorned with silver ornaments unique to Miao.
Chu Lin had imagined countless times what it would be like if their first meeting was not in Tingyu Tower, but in Miaojiang, and if they were wearing Miaojiang costumes.
At this moment, all her fantasies came true. She was wearing the clothes that Acai prepared for her, looking beautiful and lively.
All it takes between them is a glance.
The door opened suddenly. Luo Wan was still raising her hand to knock on the door when Chu Lin grabbed her wrist. She fell into his arms and was held tightly by him.
His embrace, his scent, and him as a person are all too familiar and too addictive.
Luo Wan's heart was beating like a drum. She said softly, "I'm sorry..."
"I made a mistake again. I hugged you in front of the sacred mountain." He buried his face in her neck, "But I really missed you."
Last night, he was hugged by her arm, and at such a close distance, he couldn't control himself and almost leaned over to kiss her.
This was the first mistake he made in front of the sacred mountain.
She clearly belonged to someone else, but he still hugged her, knowing full well that it was wrong to do so. This was his second mistake.
Chu Lin hugged her tighter. Although he felt that they were very close and she was in his arms, he still felt that she was very far away from him and out of reach.
Luo Wan murmured, "I'm really sorry..."
She has never been a carefree person. Even after breaking up, she will still miss him in her heart and it will take her a long time to get over it.
And now that she had finally let it go, fate's boomerang pierced her, declaring that everything was wrong.
She simply couldn't accept the truth of this matter.
Together they witnessed the sunrise and sunset, the blooming and falling of flowers. Those ten years were the most peaceful and harmonious ten years in her ever-changing life.
His eyes were still as beautiful and deep as ever, and all the hatred disappeared at this moment.
"Chu Lin," Luo Wan was held in his arms in a daze, tears falling silently, "It's been hard all the way."
Everything was silent, and there seemed to be the sound of approaching footsteps. Before Luo Wan could realize it, the fabric on her back was pulled by a force, pulling her out of Chu Lin's arms.
Looking up blankly, Luo Wan saw Jiang Cichen staring directly at Chu Lin, then slowly looking at her with a fierce look.
