"Okay." Chu Cheng responded.
The next morning, Chu Cheng left early with Bai Jing. Bai Xi came to find Ji Qingzhou and took him out to play, but found that he was not in a very good mood.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Do you know where they went?" Ji Qingzhou asked him.
Bai Xi nodded, "A big monster appeared in Qiandie Mountain recently. It killed several foxes in our fox tribe and took their inner elixir, so the elders invited my cousin to come. But the monster seemed to be very powerful and had elixirs to protect it, so my cousin couldn't defeat it. So they drew a resting place for us in Luoshui and told us not to go out for the time being."
"So they went to fight that monster?"
"Yes, Chu Cheng should be very powerful. My cousin wants him to help us."
Ji Qingzhou understood.
Bai Xi advised him, "Don't worry, he is a divine beast, he will be fine. He didn't take you with him because he was afraid you would be in danger. If you worry too much, he will also worry about you, and he might be distracted by it."
Ji Qingzhou nodded obediently, "I understand."
"I'll take you to the theater." Bai Xi said, "After the theater, they might be back."
"good."
Ji Qingzhou and Bai Xi went to see a play together. The play was very lively and Ji Qingzhou was attracted to it. They watched two plays in a row before leaving the theater. Bai Xi bought him a candy man and took him back to the bamboo forest.
Chu Cheng and the others had indeed returned, but they looked a little unhappy. Seeing him return, Chu Cheng showed a little tenderness and a smile, and asked him, "Did you have fun today?"
Ji Qingzhou nodded, "Bai Xi took me to see a play, and it was great."
Seeing this, Chu Cheng was relieved and said, "Just be happy."
"What about you?" Ji Qingzhou asked him, "Is that monster easy to deal with?"
Chu Cheng shook his head. "It's a bit difficult. Bai Jing has always thought that he is a demon, but in fact there is a demon-possessed immortal behind him. Demons are easy to deal with, but immortals are hard to deal with."
"You can't beat him either?"
Chu Cheng smiled and said, "Of course I can do it, it just takes some effort."
"It's okay." Ji Qingzhou comforted him, "As long as you can beat him."
Chu Cheng looked at him with gentle eyes, but said nothing. He just touched his hair.
Ji Qingzhou found that Chu Cheng and Bai Jing began to disappear more and more frequently. Fortunately, Bai Xi was still there, always accompanying him and taking him to discover new and interesting things every day. When he was playing with Bai Xi, he could not think of Chu Cheng, so he did not worry about missing him. When the playing time was over, he would think of him again and felt that he had not played with him for a long time.
However, he remembered what Bai Xiguo had said, not to let Chu Cheng know that he was worried about him, so that Chu Cheng would not have to be distracted to take care of himself.
There was a Lantern Festival in the town. Ji Qingzhou wanted a dragon-shaped lantern, but they were sold out, so Bai Xi bought him a fox-shaped one.
Ji Qingzhou looked at the exquisite lantern in his hand and thought it was very cute, so he accepted it.
When they returned, Chu Cheng and Bai Jing had not returned yet. When they said goodbye in the house, Bai Xi lowered his head and wanted to kiss him. Ji Qingzhou took a step back in panic. Bai Xi asked him, "Is it not possible?"
"Can't."
"Why?"
"Because I don't have a heart yet." Ji Qingzhou said.
Upon hearing this, Bai Xi reached out and pressed his chest. Indeed, there was no rhythm. This apricot tree had not yet cultivated any love, so naturally, there was no beating.
"You always have a caring heart." Bai Xi looked at him and said gently.
Ji Qingzhou smiled, "I know," he said, "I will cultivate my heart as soon as possible."
Bai Xi couldn't help but smile when he heard him say that. He was just about to tell Ji Qingzhou that one can't cultivate a heart just by practicing. If you want to have a heart, you must have feelings first. But before he could finish his words, he heard a noise at the door. Chu Cheng and Bai Jing came back.
When Ji Qingzhou saw Chu Cheng, he ran over happily and raised the lantern in his hand to show him, "Does it look good?"
