Chapter 139 Beggar
When he woke up again, he felt warm in the quilt and dry. Except for some sore waist and weak legs, he felt no discomfort.
Just like before, Yu Chi took care of everything.
He changed the sheets and quilt covers and cleaned him up.
Gu Jue raised his head. Yu Chi was still asleep. He looked very quiet, and his eyebrows were a little gentler than usual.
Gu Jue stretched out his finger and poked Yu Chi's face. Yu Chi did not respond. He breathed a sigh of relief and stroked Yu Chi's face.
Yu Chi was not much older than him, but in terms of experience, Yu Chi had suffered several times more than him.
From the destruction of Mo Xue Sword Manor.
To the death of the old man.
Then the Qiongyu Nine Blades left one by one.
He had witnessed the death of too many people around him.
But Yu Chi was only twenty-nine years old this year.
Gu Jue moved his body carefully, resting his chin lightly on the top of Yu Chi's head, and held Yu Chi in his arms in a protective manner.
After he did all this and closed his eyes again, Yu Chi opened his eyes in a place he couldn't see.
He felt everything.
As soon as Gu Jue closed his eyes, there was a knock on the door. Gu Jue was slightly stunned, and looked down at Yu Chi, meeting a pair of smiling fox eyes.
He blinked, and wiped his face when he turned over and got out of bed.
Yu Chi was awake!
He opened the door and it was Hong Yu.
Perhaps it was because Yu Chi's words about the girl yesterday had some impact, and today Hongyu changed out of her pink dress for a rare occasion, wearing black and tying up her hair in a slightly more mature style.
"Let the boy get up, your father is back."
She was a little surprised to see that it was Gu Jue who opened the door, and her eyes were a little strange.
"So fast?"
Hongyu nodded in response to Gu Jue's question, urging them to hurry up, turned around and wanted to leave, but hesitated for a moment, and finally turned around.
Pointing at her neck, she said to Gu Jue.
"Cover your neck, young people, you must know how to be restrained."
Gu Jue suddenly covered his neck, watched Hongyu leave with a sigh, and then he turned back to look at Yu Chi.
The man had already gotten up and was getting dressed.
Yu Chi waved at Gu Jue.
"Come here."
Gu Jue closed the door and returned to Yu Chi.
"What's wrong?"
He thought Yu Chi was in trouble, but Yu Chi asked him just to help him change clothes, and even picked a higher collar for him.
When he arrived at the medical room, Hong Yu and Hei Yao were sitting together, and she was applying medicine to Hei Yao.
The wind and snow in Linya didn't do anything to him, but he was the one who brought the Snow Mist Ice Lotus back with him, and it froze his hand.
Because the temperature was extremely cold, in order to bring back the Snow Mist Ice Lotus, he needed to bring some special utensils to place it, such as a bottle made of warm jade.
But Hei Yao turned around and left yesterday, without taking any equipment to keep warm. After searching his body, he only had a white jade porcelain bottle filled with medicine.
He poured out the original pills and put the ice lotus seeds in. The cold quickly permeated the white jade porcelain bottle, and the extremely cold temperature spread to Hei Yao's hands.
He didn't dare to put it in his arms, so he could only carry it all the way back.
"Yesterday, I saw a person on the edge of the cliff."
"Who?"
Hongyu answered him while carefully applying medicine to Hei Yao.
"A little kid."
Hongyu paused.
"Little kid?"
Logically speaking, the cliff is cold all year round, and if it weren't for the powerful gods, ghosts, demons, and monsters, it would be rare for them to set foot there.
Because it was a bit dangerous, the demon clan sent people to guard it. How could there be a little kid?
Hei Yao nodded.
"I heard that he is the next demon king."
The child looked no more than eleven or twelve years old. Hei Yao noticed that his prototype was a cold white snake.
Although he was young, he was very stable and mature.
"I heard a few days ago that the demon tribe's chief priest had predicted that in the future there would be a wise ruler to lead the demon tribe to prosperity, but the starlight he predicted pointed to a baby. Could it be the one you saw?"
"It should be."
Hongyu wrapped the gauze and tied a very beautiful bow on Hei Yao's hand. After finishing, she clapped her hands and let Hei Yao stand up.
When she looked up, she saw Yu Chi and Gu Jue coming.
After the snow mist ice lotus was brought back, Hongyu found a brocade box to put it. She waved to Yu Chi and took them to the brocade box.
A layer of frost had formed on the brocade box, and Yu Chi frowned.
So this is what the Snow Mist Ice Lotus Seed is like. When he was reading medical books, he checked everything and only the Snow Mist Ice Lotus Seed was the most suitable.
But he had never found it, and there was not even a clue.
Now he has come to the Demon Realm and finally got the Snow Mist Ice Lotus Seed.
But looking at this state, he can't handle it at all. Even if he handles it, he can't use his hands anymore. Which is
more important, the hand or the life?
Yu Chi's eyes fell on Gu Jue.
Of course life is more important. How can he go on with Gu Jue without his life?
Hong Yu and Yu Chi met eyes, Yu Chi nodded, raised his hand to touch the Snow Mist Ice Lotus Seed, but before he stretched out his hand, it was slapped away by Hong Yu.
"You don't want your hand anymore?"
"Tell me what you want to do, I'll do it, understand?"
"But..."
Yu Chi turned his head, Hong Yu and Gu Jue followed his gaze and saw Hei Yao and his hand wrapped like a pig's hoof.
"Don't worry about me, I have a way to avoid the cold, you just need to tell me how to deal with it, understand?"
Yu Chi's prescription had already been written. Hongyu didn't know much about Buwang, nor did she know much about Wangchuanxue, because these poisons didn't exist in their place.
Since Yu Chi was sure, then she would follow the prescription written by Yu Chi. Although Hongyu could guess roughly, she was not detailed.
That's why she called Yu Chi and the others over. If she knew, she would wait until the matter was handled before calling for help.
Not only would it not disturb people's sleep so early in the morning, but it might also ruin people's good deeds and disturb their rest.
Looking at the faint dark circles under her precious son's eyes, as a mother, she felt distressed.
After learning about the procedure, they were driven out of the medical room. Not only them, but also Hei Yao, who had just returned from Linya and didn't get to stay with his wife for a while.
He was also driven out by Hongyu.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the door of the medical office was extremely silent. Gu Jue did not dare to speak. Compared with his jumpy mother, this silent father was obviously more oppressive.
After a while, Hei Yao raised the hand that was tied into a bow by Hongyu, broke the silence, and pointed outside.
"If you have nothing to do, go to Beixiang for a stroll."
"...Okay."
Gu Jue responded.
"Yeah."
The atmosphere was silent again.
Gu Jue's lower back was poked by Yu Chi. He coughed twice and tried to speak.
"So, Dad, do you have any plans now?"
"No."
"Then, do you want to go together?"
Gu Jue carefully tested, Hei Yao nodded, raised his feet and walked away, and replied when he passed by them.
"Let's go."
Gu Jue wanted to cry but he couldn't open his mouth to Yu Chi.
What should he call?
Uncle?
Young Master?
He couldn't call him brother, wouldn't that be too much of a mess?
He was afraid that Hei Yao would call him dad later.
Walking in the Beixiang market, Hei Yao walked in front and the two of them followed behind. From time to time, they would meet someone saluting Hei Yao.
They would respectfully call him "Left Protector".
Hei Yao nodded and walked away.
Whatever gadgets, cakes, and maltose they came across, they would give them to Gu Jue after buying them. If Gu Jue couldn't hold any more, he would give them to Yu Chi.
They didn't feel embarrassed to accept them because Hei Yao was holding Yu Chi's purse when he paid.
Lin Ya is in the demon clan. There is a checkpoint from the demon clan to the demon clan, and you have to pay silver. But Yu Chi gave too much, so it doesn't take much to get in.
His mental journey is very simple.
Yu Chi and Gu Jue are together, which means they are husband and wife, so the silver also belongs to Gu Jue.
And Gu Jue is his son, which means Gu Jue will support him in his old age, and supporting him in his old age means Gu Jue will give him silver to spend, so the silver is his.
There is no problem at all, this is the best solution.
When passing a corner, Yu Chi's clothes were grabbed by a beggar on the side of the road.
Gu Jue saw Yu Chi stopped and asked him what was wrong, but when he looked down, he saw the beggar sitting on the ground.
The beggar had messy hair and looked unkempt, but he looked vaguely familiar.
Gu Jue suddenly felt that they seemed to have forgotten something.
Until the beggar tugged at the corner of Yu Chi's clothes and asked him,
"Is it time to pay this month's salary?"
Yu Chi and Gu Jue took a breath of cool air at the same time, and they knew who it was.
Mu Bailinfeng.
For a moment, Gu Jue's expression was a little hard to describe.
"How did you end up like this?"
Mu Bailinfeng raised his head and pulled his hair aside. He wanted to cry.
"How did you do so well?"
