After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he frowned and said, "Why didn't you call me when you were in trouble? And why did you run to the middle instead of staying away?"
"Because that old woman also set fire to the back of the house, I had nowhere to go, so I could only hide in the middle."
After explaining, Yun Zhourong paused for a moment before continuing in a low voice, "At that time, I wasn't sure if you had everything prepared. If I had summoned you rashly, it would have been bad if both of us had been in danger."
After all, Ji Minxiu is also human, not a real demon, and he can get hurt and die.
These words touched Ji Minxiu deeply. This girl was so kind; even in such a critical situation, she was still thinking of others.
"Oh dear, I didn't expect to suddenly faint. It was all an accident."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Yun Zhourong quickly asked again, "Then what happened? How did you manage to rescue me from such a big fire?"
Speaking of this, Ji Minxiu also felt a bit of a headache, "After this, our village will probably have another rumor related to the God of Fire."
He then briefly recounted the situation, omitting the part about CPR.
The main reason is that it's not a good thing, and I'm afraid it might frighten Yun Zhourong. Also...
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at Yun Zhourong's lips.
He hadn't thought much about it before because he was focused on saving people, but now he realized that this was the first time he had ever kissed a girl, and his heart was racing involuntarily.
I quickly looked away, not daring to look again.
Yun Zhourong didn't notice, and just chuckled, "I'm afraid many legends come about this way. But Snow Demon, why don't you think about what happened back then? If you can find the reason, you can come here anytime in the future."
"really."
Ji Minxiu also felt that he had to find a way to come over proactively; he didn't want to experience the feeling of helplessness he felt today again.
Thinking of this, Ji Minxiu was stunned.
Had he somehow become so concerned about this little girl without even realizing it?
"Lord Snow Demon, have you made up your mind?" Yun Zhourong asked when he remained silent.
Ji Minxiu then came to his senses and said seriously, "Hmm, I remember the safety amulet seemed to glow at the time... and then... yes, I also smelled a strange odor..."
Yun Zhourong blinked. "A strange smell... what kind of smell?"
"Yeah, it's like... the smell of burning paper."
Ji Minxiu thought for a moment, then said, "Oh, right, I also saw something that looked like paper ash...it really reminded me of the offering you made for me that day..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhourong immediately touched her nose awkwardly; the memories of her dead body were suddenly attacking her!
However, an idea quickly surfaced in her mind, and she said uncertainly, "Lord Snow Demon, do you think... it might be related to this offering?"
"worship…"
Upon hearing this, Ji Minxiu's eyes lit up slightly.
Normally, as an atheist, he would definitely deny it outright.
But now, he actually somewhat agrees with this statement.
He stroked his chin and murmured, "If that's the case, then it must be what's called... the power of faith."
"Yes, Snow Fairy, I think you're absolutely right. After all, our peace amulet has been passed down through the ages, so what's impossible for it?"
Yun Zhourong said, "Perhaps, this power of faith is the energy that allows you to use the safety amulet."
“Hmm, that makes a lot of sense, but how exactly do we determine the amount of faith power, and what are the specific methods for using it?” Ji Minxiu pondered, stroking his chin.
"That's easy. Let's collect more faith power first, and then give it a try."
As Yun Zhourong spoke, her eyes lit up, "I have an idea. We can say that the one who saved us from the fire wasn't the Fire God but the Snow Demon, and then when we bring out the food, we can say it was given to us by the Snow Demon. Our only request is that we offer you sacrifices."
The Great Sheng Dynasty had a legend of a snow demon, and given that it was snowing heavily, it was more believable than the legend of the fire god.
"Hmm, that's good. This little girl is quick-witted." Ji Minxiu unconsciously revealed a hint of doting and tapped Yun Zhourong's forehead with his hand.
If this method succeeds, not only will there be a legitimate way to provide grain, but it can also be used to accumulate merit, which is a win-win situation.
Upon being praised, Yun Zhourong smiled happily at first, then said with some trouble, "I'm a bit stumped about how to bring up the existence of the Snow Demon."
"That's easy. Just say you appeared in a dream and that the Snow Demon helped you because he wants people to make offerings to him. Then, you can take the opportunity to ask for food for everyone."
Without a second thought, Ji Minxiu said, "I believe that the people will not only not oppose you, but will also be very grateful to you."
"Yes, I would be very grateful to you." Yun Zhourong quickly replied.
"You're getting sweet-talking more and more, girl."
Ji Minxiu was pleased. He patted her head and continued, "If you're feeling better, come out with me for a bit. I need to take my fire suit back. That postmaster is quite shrewd; I'm afraid things might get complicated if we stay too long."
"Okay, I'm fine now, let's go right away."
Knowing the urgency of the matter, Yun Zhourong didn't dare to delay. She drank the porridge that Da Niu Niang had brought her and then went out with Ji Minxiu.
Instantly, a chill swept over him, causing Yun Zhourong to shiver involuntarily.
Ji Minxiu immediately frowned, turned around and walked back, "Wait a moment."
Yun Zhourong was puzzled, but he nodded and waited.
"Yun, the female healer, you're awake!"
At this moment, Liu Pingkang walked over happily, a bright smile on his face.
"Yes, it's all better now. Thank you so much, Master Yi." Yun Zhou bowed and thanked him.
