Chapter 23: Heart trembling is the warmth and heartbeat
Wen Zhiyu's heart trembled, and he was suddenly at a loss.
Unlike before, he did not show the gentle face he pretended to be, and this time even his voice was trembling slightly which he could not detect.
He pretended to be calm, "When have I ever been unhappy?"
"See, this is how you show that you're unhappy." Xie Tingyu restrained his legs with her arms and carried him steadily on her back, looking like a man who could stand tall and proud.
The images around me flashed, as if I was just passing by.
Going through the years, breaking through one cage after another.
Only she and Wen Zhiyu were walking on the boundless path of tranquility. Xie Tingyu suddenly laughed, "Wen Zhiyu, at least I saved you, so don't always think about killing me."
"It's just for now. One day, I won't bother you in front of you anymore."
Wen Zhiyu remained silent for a long time after the words were spoken. Xie Tingyu even suspected that he found it difficult to accept the fact that she carried him on her back, and that he was so angry and embarrassed that he fell asleep.
She was going to put it another way, "In other words, if you want me to lift the concentric spell quickly, you can help me find something, and leave immediately after you find me. There will be no delay."
"Is this why you came here?" Wen Zhiyu's voice suddenly sounded behind her, with a hint of understanding.
Xie Tingyu had no intention of hiding this fact. Her identity was full of loopholes, so it was better to reveal some of it appropriately.
Even Wen Zhiyu's attempt to stop it was useless.
Because she didn't know what that thing was, she could trick Wen Zhi and help her find it.
Seeing that Xie Tingyu did not reply, which was considered as his tacit agreement, Wen Zhiyu's eyes flashed with confusion. He heard his own voice echoing in this barrier tunnel.
“Where do you go when you find something?”
"Should this be considered going home?"
Xie Tingyu lowered his eyes, "After all, I have lived there for seventeen years."
Wen Zhiyu now didn't quite understand what she meant.
His lips moved, but before he could say anything, Xie Tingyu smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry, if I encounter an accident, I will definitely break the spell in time before I die, and I won't drag you down."
"The premise is that you can't harm me."
"I saved you once, so please don't kill me, okay?"
Every word Xie Tingyu said hit Wen Zhiyu's heart, and the principles he had adhered to for many years began to waver.
Selfish and will do anything to achieve his own goals.
But he actually thought about it seriously. If it is to protect important people, it is worth it even if it means sacrificing his life.
Xie Tingyu, does that count?
Did she say this because she had changed her mind about me and didn't want to drag me into this mess?
Wen Zhi and felt that she was not calm enough.
He gritted his teeth and muttered, "Isn't there another solution?"
Xie Tingyu didn't hear clearly, so he said "Ah", stopped and looked sideways at him, "What did you just say?"
Wen Zhiyu stopped talking again.
Wen Zhiyu's white clothes were stained with blood, as bright red as the red silk in his hair. Blood was dripping. Xie Tingyu carried him on his back and looked back.
The ground is covered with red plum blossoms.
His red silk headband hung down and slid across Xie Tingyu's ear, rubbing against the tip of her ear, which made her feel a little itchy.
Wen Zhiyu noticed it and raised his hand to take Hongyi back. He felt more at ease than ever before being carried by Xie Tingyu.
"Does it hurt?" The gentle voice was warm and soft, with a sincerity that had never been there before.
Xie Tingyu didn't know what Wen Zhiyu was talking about. "Are you confused because you are seriously injured? Are you caring about me?"
The other party did not answer, and the silent air was filled with the other party's unspoken stubbornness.
"I don't have a strong sense of pain, and generally speaking, only wounds that strike the soul directly can cause extreme pain. To be honest, I don't know what kind of evil magic you have practiced."
"But being able to draw your blood as a guide is not a good thing at all."
Neither party had expected to have a conversation in such a murderous place, from identities to the same heart spell to perception.
Wen Zhiyu finally fell asleep on Xie Tingyu's back with peace of mind.
His injuries were serious. Xie Tingyu noticed his steady breathing and blood at the corners of his lips.
She couldn't let Wen Zhiyu discover her weakness, for fear that Wen Zhiyu would take the opportunity to cast the Heart Curse, and she would be doomed then.
After all, her current mortal body is no match for Wen Zhiyu.
Even though Wen Zhi and he didn't know how to remove the spell, they always had to be prepared for the worst.
The disciples in the library were called out urgently and stood around the library, waiting with their heads cocked.
Many other disciples heard the news of the incident in the library and swarmed over it as if they were badgers seeing a melon field.
When Caixia kissed Fasui Peak lightly, a ray of white light burst out from inside the library.
A stumbling figure appeared. A gentle young man covered in blood was carried on the back of a slender girl, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
The girl walked unsteadily like a toddler, carrying the young man on her back as she walked slowly up in front of everyone's eyes.
There was a bloody person behind her, with blood-stained clothes hanging down and blood oozing down.
"Ayu! Xiaoyu!" Yun Heng stretched out his voice, causing the disciples who were whispering to each other to shut up and listen to the Sword Master speak.
Yun Heng just walked up with tears in her eyes, pulled the unconscious Wen Zhi off Xie Tingyu's back and threw them to Situ You who had followed.
Then he held Xie Tingyu's cheek, with a look of heartache on his face, "Ah Yu, why are you covered in blood?"
"Was it Wen Zhiyu who did this to you? I'm going to take care of him now!"
There was anger in Yunheng's voice, and Xie Tingyu, who was closest to her, was startled. She looked away and looked at Wen Zhiyu, who opened his eyes with the help of Situ You.
He was looking at her, with a complicated expression in his eyes that Xie Tingyu couldn't understand.
Situ You tilted his head and glanced at Wen Zhiyu, "What are you doing? Didn't you get the blood on Junior Sister's body?"
Yun Heng and Situ You both knew Wen Zhiyu's true character very well. In this situation, Xie Tingyu must have seen Wen Zhiyu's condition.
No one had ever seen that look except the two of them, and now there was Xie Tingyu.
In order to prevent Wen Zhiyu from killing people out of anger, Situ You remained calm, but silently tightened his palm to restrain Wen Zhiyu's movements.
Yun Heng silently brought Xie Tingyu behind him, keeping a safe distance from him.
Wen Zhiyu frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled by the behavior of his master and eldest senior brother.
On the other hand, Xie Tingyu was standing leisurely behind Yun Heng, holding a bright red bead in his hand.
Xie Tingyu thought of the blue bead that Yun Heng had given her to drive away evil spirits, and felt that the two were exactly the same except for the color.
So he held it in his hand and looked at it.
Yun Heng tilted her head, raised her hand and rubbed Xie Ting Yuling's messy hair, and said in a gentle voice, "Ah Yu has been injured a lot recently, and the injuries in her body have been accumulating for a long time. Use this red lotus bead that can warm and activate blood circulation with the warm jade in your cave to treat most of the hidden injuries."
Hearing this, Xie Tingyu didn't know what to feel. She didn't understand why Yun Heng gave her these valuable things.
If it is a warm jade bed, then it can be said that it is testing her true identity. Then what are these so-called red lotus beads that are warm and invigorate the blood circulation?
To let her guard down, to make her trust him?
Xie Tingyu felt that she might be assuming Yunheng with the greatest malice, but she had to think so.
The Ghost Master said that she was the variable seen in the ending of the annihilation of the Ghost Mansion, and she needed to change the fate of the Ghost Mansion's destruction in the Nine Abyss explosion.
She didn't dare to say that she was the savior, nor did she dare to say that she could save the ghost house.
But Xie Tingyu had to make herself realize that the ghost house was indeed her second home.
"Master, I don't think I deserve these things." Yun Heng was putting her hands on her hips when she suddenly heard a low whisper from behind.
Yun Heng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He didn't turn around and said, "Just consider it as my compensation to you."
He didn't finish his sentence, but Xie Tingyu knew that he was referring to the many times he had tried to test the subject before.
What's there to compensate for this? Xie Tingyu couldn't help laughing. Over Yunheng's shoulder, Xie Tingyu and Wen Zhi looked at each other.
Wen Zhiyu's eyes were clear at this time. He didn't look like a seriously injured person, but rather seemed full of energy.
She couldn't understand Wen Zhiyu's emotions and tilted her head.
Seeing this, Wen Zhiyu laughed at himself and defended himself, "I didn't mean to do anything to her. How bad do you think of me?"
There was a lot of helplessness in his voice, and he blocked out the disciples around him while speaking.
Xuan Yuntian's disciples couldn't hear the conversation between the few people, which aroused their curiosity even more.
Although it is said that the words of elders should not be eavesdropped, the famous Yunheng Sword Master, the current head of Xuanyuntian, and Wen Zhi, the top of the cultivation world's Fenghua Ranking, gathered together, and there seemed to be a conflict under the watchful eyes of the public.
But it is a place that attracts a lot of attention.
As for Xie Tingyu who was hiding behind Yun Heng, he did not attract much attention. It was only when he first arrived that Tian Xing Chi Xiao recognized him as his master that he entered everyone's sight.
Compared with the other three, she is the least famous and powerful person in the sect.
Xie Tingyu was enjoying her leisure time, and was having a lot of fun playing with the red lotus beads behind Yunheng.
Hearing Wen Zhiyu defending himself sentence after sentence, his voice weak and his face pale, Xie Tingyu sighed, "Master, he really didn't do anything to me."
Situ You "controlled" Wen Zhiyu with one hand, and patted Xie Tingyu's thin shoulder with the other hand, and said confidently: "Junior sister, just say it, Senior Brother will make the decision for you."
Wen Zhiyu suddenly looked aggrieved. Xie Tingyu joked with a few others for a while and suddenly spoke.
"What's the point of acting like this?"
"What is acting?" Situ You asked, retracting his hand.
Seeing that neither of them denied their problems and had set up a barrier to the outside, Xie Tingyu knew that the two of them were not really trying to make things difficult for Wen Zhiyu.
After all, he had done nothing wrong and was seriously injured.
"Let's not talk about this for now. I want to ask about your injury. Do you need anything to treat it? Is the Red Lotus Bead effective?" Xie Tingyu stretched out his hand, revealing a small red bead in his palm.
Situ You didn't have any special reaction, but Yun Heng knew how Xie Tingyu and Wen Zhi, who were at loggerheads not long ago, became so loving to each other now.
It wasn't just Yun Heng who was confused, Wen Zhiyu was even more confused.
He frowned and looked at Xie Tingyu carefully, wondering if Xie Tingyu had been abducted.
In a blink of an eye, Xie Tingyu's inner voice came one after another, impacting Wen Zhiyu's already extremely painful mind.
'What kind of injury is this? Why don't I feel any pain?'
"If it is not treated, it will always be a hidden danger."
"Red Lotus Pearl really can't cure it? Is that true or false?"
"The Heart Sutra can transfer pain. Do you want to check the injury?"
Wen Zhiyu sighed, "Didn't Master say before that he wanted to go to Xilin Huanlou? It would be a good opportunity for you to take me there."
