Chapter 57: Heart-pounding affair
As soon as Long Qi opened his eyes, he saw Lingxiang fiddling with something, making a banging sound, as if she was playing with some bottles and jars. He felt extremely thirsty for a moment, but when he opened his mouth, no sound came out, and he could only call Lingxiang hoarsely.
Fortunately, Lingxiang turned around at this time, saw that his lips were chapped, and quickly poured him a glass of water.
She carefully helped Long Qi up and slowly fed the water into his mouth. Long Qi looked up at her while drinking the water - it turned out that Lingxiang was not dead!
However, at this moment, a black mist suddenly appeared behind Lingxiang, and a monster like a mantis emerged from the mist, raising its sickle arm and quietly approaching her.
But Lingxiang was unaware of it and was still bending over to feed Long Qi water. Seeing her like this, Long Qi was extremely anxious, but he felt as if he was under a spell and could not move at all.
He struggled hard to break free, tried to make some noise, but it was all in vain.
The monster stopped when it was half a foot away from Lingxiang. Its dark eyes were as big as copper bells, staring at Lingxiang without moving.
Suddenly, the monster swung its sickle arm violently. Lingxiang felt pain and was shocked, but she didn't even have time to turn around before she turned into ashes and drifted away.
Seeing this, Long Qi felt heartbroken and suddenly opened his mouth, finally shouting:
"Spiritual fragrance~!"
…
“Spiritual fragrance…Spiritual fragrance!”
Long Qi sat up suddenly, breaking out in a cold sweat. He looked around and found himself in his own residence. He was stunned and felt pain all over his body. Only then did he realize that it was just a nightmare.
Just when he was wondering about the dream, he found the thin cloth wrapped around his arm: this was the injury he suffered when he tried to save Lingxiang during the martial arts performance. Lingxiang should have been fine, so could it be that what he saw at that time was also a dream?
Or is it just a dream now?
"Are you awake?"
As soon as Lingxiang entered the room, she saw Long Qi sitting up. She quickly put down the medicine in her hand, walked to the bed and touched his forehead.
"The fever has finally subsided, but do you feel any discomfort?"
When a soft hand brushed against his, Long Qi was sure that this was not a dream. He stared at the little person in front of him in a daze, and suddenly hugged her.
Lingxiang was frightened by his sudden action and was unable to react for a moment. The medicine in her hand fell to the ground. She had never experienced such a situation before. When she came to her senses, she was at a loss again. She wanted to break free, but she didn't expect Long Qi to be so strong.
Just then, a group of people rushed in!
Liu Xia and Xinyi were doing their own things. When they heard the noise upstairs, they thought something had happened to Long Qi and hurried upstairs. However, when they entered the room, they saw this scene and were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do.
They seem to have arrived at a bad time...
Naturally, the two grown men made quite a noise when they went upstairs. Long Qi, who had lost control of himself just now, had come back to his senses now, with a blush on his face. He quickly let go of Ling Xiang and lay back down.
It would have been a small mistake for him to lie down, but it actually tore the wound apart. He grimaced in pain, but dared not say a word.
At this time, Zhao Wuyang came upstairs on crutches. As soon as he entered the door, he asked what happened. Xinyi and Liu Xia covered his eyes, and the other held his shoulders and went out, closing the door before leaving.
This... Fortunately, everything is fine!
The two exchanged glances and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lingxiang saw blood seeping from the fine cloth on Long Qi's arm, and knew that he had pulled the wound, so she quickly took a new cloth and re-bandaged it. Long Qi, however, seemed to be deliberately saying that the bandage was too loose and would not help the wound heal, and then that it was too tight and uncomfortable. He said nothing as Lingxiang was bandaging him, and just stared at her.
He hadn't noticed before that this little girl had such beautiful eyes, her eyelashes were like butterfly wings, and they fluttered his heart.
"How is it? Are you still feeling it?" Lingxiang raised her head and looked at Long Qi and asked, but saw that he was staring at her in a daze for some reason.
Long Qi looked at Lingxiang and suddenly remembered the cup from a few days ago, and his face flushed again.
Seeing him like this, Lingxiang thought he had a fever again, so she hurried forward and touched his forehead: it seemed a little hot, but not like a fever.
A medicinal fragrance wafted into his nose, and Lingxiang's rosy little mouth was right in front of him. Long Qi felt his mouth was dry and his chest felt like a mountain had opened up. He swallowed, but found that it made his mouth even drier.
Lingxiang was only paying attention to whether Long Qi was okay, but didn't notice him slowly approaching. In just a moment, a burst of hot air passed by, and she was kissed by Long Qi.
It was just a light peck, and Long Qi felt a blank in his mind for a moment. The soft touch was like the glutinous rice balls his mother made when he was a child, fragrant and sweet.
Lingxiang was also stunned for a moment, and only came back to her senses after a while.
Everyone only heard a scream from upstairs, followed by a loud slap, and then saw a flash of spiritual fragrance like the wind.
Liu Xia looked at Xinyi with a half-smile:
This is?
Xinyi seemed to be smiling:
Of course!
Then the two of them smiled knowingly, leaving Zhao Wuyang puzzled: Are these two brothers stupid?
Originally, it was Maidong who treated Long Qi and others, but she had not been seen in the past few days. The reason was simple: of course, she had done something bad and was exposed.
"I felt through the dust-peek mirror that the sword moves used by Long Qi looked familiar, but I didn't expect it to be the 'Dragon-Entangled Sword Technique'!" Master Fuyin stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Maidong who was kneeling on the cushion.
"I didn't expect that you could actually find my master's small treasury. That's quite impressive!"
Mai Dong pinched his ears with both hands and looked at Master Fu Yin with grievance: "I... I just borrowed it to observe for a while, why are you so angry, Master... If... If I get sick from anger, it's not worth it..."
"Watch? Watching is fine!" Master Fuyin said, throwing a book to the ground. On the blue cover were written four big characters "Hehuan Secret Play".
"Then tell me, how do you explain this?!"
When Maidong saw the book, he felt something was wrong: Lingxiang, Lingxiang, you damn girl, you are going to kill me!
Looking at her master's angry face, Maidong felt scared. She had never seen her master so angry before.
Forget it! I'd rather die than die with my friend. In the face of crisis, what does sisterhood mean? Besides, it was you, Lingxiang, who tricked me first. If I betray you, maybe I can escape this disaster.
Thinking this way, Mai Dong told the whole story in detail - Humph! Lingxiang, you can only wish you good luck!
When Master Fuyin heard what Maidong said, he felt his heart burning with anger. It would have been fine if this little junior sister had just acted foolishly on her own, but she had to lead his disciple astray!
No! If they continue like this, these two will be in great trouble!
"Look at you! Do you still have the dignity of a girl? Was it easy for me to raise you? Is this how you repay me?"
Master Fuyin scolded Maidong so much that he almost fell asleep, but he didn't dare to refute him.
"... Go back and copy the Qingxin Jue a hundred times!" Master Fuyin flicked his sleeves and sat down, ignoring Maidong's pleading.
Lingxiang! Just wait for me!
