"Okay, be good, stop making trouble. It's getting late, let's go."
He pulled the person into his arms, his movements so natural as if he had done it thousands of times before.
Xunmi was already accustomed to her husband's hugs and various physical contacts, so she didn't notice anything wrong at all.
Only Yingchuan and others felt that their leader was abnormal and seemed like a different person.
No, it should be said that the one who was gentle and doting in front of the beauty in red did not seem like their leader.
But the person who glanced at them was still the cold-blooded leader.
I feel so tired. Captain, if you treat us differently like this, you will lose us.
Li Yi coaxed the person with just two words, and without asking for Xunmi's opinion, he pulled the person away.
The yin energy here seems to be suppressed by the bright sunshine and is not as strong as at night.
But if you feel it carefully, it is very obvious that Li Yi knows exactly where this comes from.
Sigh, if the things here are not removed, once they come out, they will probably confuse the world.
Xunmi was just floating away, being held by her dear husband. She didn't feel any pressure at all and was in the mood to look around.
I didn't pay attention to the scene last night because I was running away. Now that I see it, I have to say, it looks pretty good.
"Master's wife, how did you get here?" Mi Xiaoxiao spoke vaguely while chewing a biscuit.
They will camp in the mountains during this time, and each of them will carry dry food with them.
"Well, because I sensed your master coming, I suddenly appeared."
Xunmi replied with a smile, half joking, half serious so that it was hard to tell whether it was true or not.
The corners of Mi Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched. Is this necessary? She refused to be fed dog food with any question she asked!
They got along very well on the way, but when they reached the outer circle of the Eastern Qing Tombs, Xunmi began to exude his own pressure in a subtle way.
Prevent those little ghosts from showing up, and suppress some of the things that are ready to make trouble.
Li Yi relaxed his grip on the long sword and looked meaningfully at the person next to him. When he saw her winking at him mischievously, he understood instantly.
Rubbing her long hair, the touch was so soft that it could absorb his hands, and his heart became softer.
"Don't worry too much about us. We are not that weak."
As the heir of a ghost-catching family, he knows the level of suppression of ghosts, but he also knows that there are limits.
He didn't want the person in front of him to get hurt for him, as that would hurt his heart.
If all the previous emotions came out of nowhere, then this thought came even more violently.
His subconscious and spirit were telling him that this was the right thing to do and he should not forget her.
Who is she? Was it her who once walked towards me in a bright red wedding dress?
Xunmi threw herself directly into her husband's arms, rubbed his warm chest, and satisfied herself with the scent emanating from his body, which made all the hair cells in her body relax.
"They are just small shrimps, but there is not much I can do to help them later."
"...Li Yi, don't open the imperial tomb, at least not yet. Wait for him to appear."
After a brief silence, Xunmi raised her head, her dark peach blossom eyes filled with determination and caution.
Li Yi's hand that was stroking her long hair paused, "Who is he?" His eyes flashed, and he continued the movement of his hands.
"He will appear soon. I can't tell you who he is, but the imperial tomb cannot be opened without him."
Xunmi actually wanted to tell her husband everything, but the rules did not allow it.
Otherwise, she would not have chosen this roundabout route, first stopping her husband and waiting for another male protagonist to appear.
At this point: "I haven't told you my name yet, it's Xunxun, Xunxun, Xunxun. It sounds nice, right?"
Li Yi still remembers this day many years later. It was a sunny day, and someone was standing in front of him. She smiled brighter than the sun and told him her name.
But he didn't know that it was the formation of a contract, nor did he know that at this moment, they would be completely entangled for the rest of their lives.
"It sounds nice, searching, searching, searching." Did you come here specifically to find me?
Before Xunmi had time to be happy, he heard the system say that a hidden task had been triggered.
Oh my god, what did she just do? Why did the task get triggered again? To be honest, she is now very sensitive to triggering tasks.
After dinner, they chose an open space to set up their tents with a fire burning in front. The others went to sleep, leaving Xunmi and Li Yi to guard the first half of the night.
Nestled in her husband's arms, she looked up at the stars in the night sky and recalled the tasks that had been triggered before.
Find the mystery of the imperial tomb and solve the curse.
"I don't remember when I came into existence. Since I became conscious, I have only had one mission."
"It's very difficult to survive here. In order to survive, you can only constantly strengthen yourself."
"Every once in a while, I would go to the town to absorb the essence of some strong men, but I don't like blood, so I have never killed anyone."
"I think you've guessed the identity of that person last night. They broke in by mistake."
"Everyone else is dead. Their deaths are very strange. I'm not sure if it was done by ghosts."
He slowly recounted the original owner's experience, not knowing which star in the sky the original owner was, and whether he had ever been liberated.
Li Yi just held Xunmi in his arms and didn't say a word from beginning to end, as if they were just discussing how round the moon was tonight.
"Go to sleep." Looking at the person in his arms closing his eyes, Li Yi felt his heart filled with satisfaction.
If possible, he would like to hold this person in his arms for the rest of his life and never let go.
His fingertips lightly touched her tender but cold cheek, making him feel suffocated with heartache.
If I had met you earlier, you wouldn’t have become like this. But that’s okay, at least I didn’t miss the you of today.
Li Yi had rationally emphasized that he shouldn't do this. He couldn't control his emotions towards a woman he had only met twice, especially under such circumstances the night before.
He now understood Ji Feng's persistence in pursuing him because he couldn't control himself.
He understood, but that didn't mean he would accept. He didn't say he didn't love her, especially since he had already found the person he wanted to protect for the rest of his life.
"Mi'er, thank you for appearing." You make my world wonderful and give me the motivation to live.
The voice was so soft as a whisper, but Xunmi still caught it in her ears, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but raise a beautiful arc.
Husband, I should be the one thanking you, because with you, my world is filled with bright and warm light.
"Danger." She opened her eyes quickly, slapped the dark night with her backhand, and pulled her husband to stand up.
Li Yi had already taken out his sword, and the protective aura on his body naturally released.
Xunmi wanted to bring her husband to the campfire, and had previously drawn a simple formation to protect Yingchuan and others.
But as soon as her hand touched her husband's hand, Xunmi couldn't help but gasp, it was so painful.
He retracted his hand and opened it to see that his five fingers were already charred, as if they had been burned by something.
