Chapter 162 The past days were actually quite boring
Lu Qiu glanced at the top of the pit. Xia Wange had already disappeared. He did not chat with Du Yun for long at the bottom of the pit. He pulled out the bone spur, put the bell on the bone spur, and then removed the glutinous rice soaked in cinnabar that was stuck to the bell tongue.
Soon, the bell made a sound, and in just a moment, Lu Qiu felt that the pit was a little colder, as if a gust of evil wind was blowing, but in the blink of an eye, his surroundings became warm.
At this time, Xia Wange's head popped out from the edge of the pit again. Lu Qiu looked at her head and suddenly felt a bit like playing whack-a-mole.
"Is it cold?"
Lu Qiu shook his head, then nodded, "It was a little bit when the bell rang just now, but it's fine now."
"That's right, it's cold." Xia Wange said, "I saw it all just now. The combination of the bell and the bone spur attracted all the Yin energy around, and then the Yin energy wanted to enter your body. Your purple energy took effect just now, and now the Yin energy is circling around you."
After Xia Wange finished speaking, she saw Lu Qiu's eyebrows slightly raised, and she knew what he was thinking, so she quickly said: "Today is a good opportunity. There is something imprisoned by the Heavenly Dao here that can offset it. If it were normal, you would draw all the evil spirits around you and consume them. The luck of the people around you would get better, which is equivalent to changing their fate. This good will turn into purple energy and return to you. By then, you may not get more than you have consumed. This is why people who lived near the imperial city in ancient times had better luck."
Lu Qiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Really..."
Lu Qiu swallowed back the rest of the words.
He wanted to say that he was quite unlucky, and that his good nature had become an obstacle for him. But he also thought that if he was considered unlucky, then what about others?
Xia Wange held a stick of incense between her fingers. "Take this incense. This is an incense that can forcibly draw away the evil spirits around you. Using this is extremely detrimental to one's virtue. If you didn't owe me evil, I wouldn't have used it."
Lu Qiu looked at Xia Wange.
He suddenly felt that this was a good thing. After meeting Xia Wange, thinking back on his past life was actually quite boring.
Thinking of this, when Lu Qiu was about to raise his hand to take it, Xia Wange retracted the incense, stared at him for a moment with a strange look in his eyes and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Lu Qiuwei was stunned, "Huh?"
"I just feel that the look in your eyes is a little strange, a little concerned about the country and the people, and a little submissive?" Xia Wange felt that she couldn't explain her feelings. She felt that ever since he had been alone with the Mirror Ghost, he had become a little strange. If it weren't for the purple aura all over his body, she would have thought that Lu Qiu had been possessed by the Mirror Ghost.
"Why, you're not still claustrophobic, are you? Or do you really want to be the emperor?"
Pursing his lips, Lu Qiu sighed softly, "I don't want to be the emperor, Xia Aiqing, please leave me quickly. If you dawdle any longer, this will be my imperial mausoleum, and I will drag you to be buried with me."
Xia Wange listened to the other party's humorous tone, breathed a sigh of relief and laughed. Okay, I feel better. This is right.
Thinking of this, Xia Wange stuck the incense stick to the edge of the pit and said, "Take it yourself later. Don't think that I lit it. Just hypnotize yourself that you picked up a wild incense stick by chance."
Lu Qiu: “…”
He glanced at the "Wild Fragrance" on the wall and felt that Xia Wange's risk avoidance was too good.
After Lu Qiu held the incense in his hand and waited for a while, he heard Xia Wange's voice coming from above, indicating that he could climb.
He looked around the pit in embarrassment and was about to use his arms for leverage when suddenly the soil on one side began to collapse. Thin sand spilled onto the bottom of the pit where his legs were placed, and then gradually filled it up.
Lu Qiu held his knees with his hands and pulled. Unexpectedly, he pulled it out so easily. When he put it down again, the bottom of the pit was much higher. He did the same thing and pulled out the other leg. At this time, the top of his head was level with the top of the pit.
He climbed up the edge of the pit with his hands and came out easily. He pushed his knees on the edge and Lu Qiu sat on the edge of the pit.
Du Yun, who had his back to him, kept talking, "Sister Xia, how long do you think it will take for Lu Qiu to crawl out this time? Should we take a look in case he suffocated down there? Oh my god, he came out so soon? What the hell? I dug for a long time, how come he came out so quickly?"
As he said that, Du Yun jumped into the pit himself and prepared to give it a try.
"How do you feel?" Xia Wange pushed Lu Qiu's wheelchair over.
"Feeling?" After Lu Qiu climbed onto the wheelchair, he took a breath and asked, "What does it feel like?"
"My knees." Xia Wange crossed her arms and smiled. "Do you feel your knees?"
Hearing Xia Wange's words, Lu Qiu was slightly stunned. It was only then that he suddenly remembered that he had used his knees when he climbed out of the pit. He lowered his head and gently touched his knees with his hands, then patted them, and felt a tingling sensation on his knees.
This long-lost touch made Lu Qiu feel a little sour in his nose for a moment.
It was the first time he had felt his knee since the problem with his leg had developed and rapidly worsened.
He lifted his legs. Even though he had no feeling below his knees, he could see his legs being moved. This scene made Lu Qiu's heart surge instantly.
After a long while, Lu Qiu whispered in a tender and hoarse voice: "Xia Wange..."
"If I cut off your calf now, I can directly install a prosthesis and you can stand up!" Xia Wange grinned and patted his shoulder happily, "Don't you think it's done in one step?"
Lu Qiu: “…”
In an instant, the intense and turbulent emotions lingering in his heart disappeared completely. Lu Qiu let out a long sigh and felt his head buzzing.
"I really..." Some words were tossed back and forth between Lu Qiu's teeth. He gritted his teeth and looked at Xia Wange, "Thank you for giving me such a good idea. Why didn't I chop it off earlier? I would have stood up a long time ago."
Xia Wange scratched his nose and laughed awkwardly, "It's not that it's not very convenient without knees... After all, it's much more convenient with knees."
"Thank you so much for your thoughtful consideration." Lu Qiu said speechlessly.
"that......"
A weak voice came from the pit, immediately attracting the attention of the two.
Hearing the silence outside, Du Yun in the pit said weakly: "Can you pull me up? My legs seem to be stuck in the sand and I can't get out."
Xia Wange & Lu Qiu: "......"
