Chapter 8 Chapter 8 "Sister, I'm so tired of pretending...
Jiang Li's voice came and he was woken up.
Such a dirty thought...
He just pretended not to hear anything and shook the medicine bottle to sprinkle medicine on the wound.
Jiang Li subconsciously retracted his legs due to the sudden stimulation.
Yun Si grabbed it and said, "Don't move..."
The voice is too hoarse.
She held the slender leg in one hand, and the soft touch came from the palm of her hand, and he could feel the shape of the bones.
Yun Si tried hard to suppress the subtle emotions in his heart and dared not make a sound.
Seeing a thin layer of sweat on Yun Si's forehead, Jiang Li quickly took up a handkerchief and wiped it off for him: "Why are you sweating?"
There was a fragrance on the handkerchief, and her scent lingered at the tip of his nose. His body tensed uncontrollably.
Jiang Li remembered that he had just taken a cold shower and reached out to touch his forehead: "You didn't catch a cold, did you?"
If I catch a cold, I won't infect her, right?
The moment his forehead touched the soft touch, Yun Si blushed immediately.
My mind started to wander, and I couldn't control myself from thinking about...
When he looked up and saw the worry in Jiang Li's eyes, he became even more excited: "Don't worry, sister, I'm not sick."
Jiang Li immediately withdrew his hand as if he had touched something he shouldn't have touched: "You said no, but your face is so red."
Yun Si was speechless and didn't know how to explain.
Fortunately, the blush on his face quickly disappeared, and Jiang Li finally believed that he was fine.
She said softly and concernedly: "If you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediately." Otherwise, you will pass the disease on to me!
Of course, she didn't say the latter part.
Yun Si also lay obediently beside him, not touching Jiang Li at all. For her, they had already slept together, so lying together was no big deal.
A woman's reputation is like a shackle.
The world treats women harshly, calling those who lose their chastity "sluts." Dressing up a bit is considered unchaste, and being harassed by a married man is considered shameless.
But what about men? Having three wives and four concubines is common, flirting is considered romantic, and seeking pleasure is considered talent...
If it weren't for the disgrace they despised, she would probably be a pile of dust now. She wouldn't cry and beg Yun Si to take responsibility, and he hoped Yun Si would do the same.
She didn't care about her reputation, it was her reputation that almost cost her life!
Seeing that the person next to him had fallen asleep, Yun Si moved over little by little.
He sniffed her neck and then took a deep breath.
The madness that had been suppressed was finally released.
Reaching out, he held her waist.
Hold her face and kiss her.
This was a revenge for Jiang Li’s rejection during the day.
Unrelieved desires are stuck in one place, causing torment and pain.
The kiss landed on the corner of her mouth, and the moment it touched her lips, he felt like he was electrocuted. It felt completely different from anywhere else, soft, as soft as water.
He was like a dying fish, and she was his lifeline.
It was as if he had found a life-saving straw, and he kissed and hugged her.
His disordered breathing was about to drown out his remaining sanity. The moment the tip of her tongue licked her lips, he interrupted his sweet dream with his own hands.
He stopped to kiss her.
Jiang Li was sleeping, and no matter how he hugged her or kissed her, she would not respond. During the day, he pretended to be indifferent to please her, and only dared to express his desire when she was asleep.
"Sister, it's really hard for me to pretend..."
Jiang Li liked obedient men, simple men. However, he was a man of deep thoughts and disobedience. From childhood to adulthood, he had only one principle in mind: those who obey me will prosper, those who disobey me will perish.
When he was in Miao territory, no one dared to disobey him, so he never took action.
He could tolerate Jiang Li wanting to lock him up and abandon him, and he could tolerate Jiang Li escaping. But he could not tolerate others bullying Jiang Li, and he could not tolerate people other than Jiang Li offending him.
We are all human beings.
But Jiang Li is so interesting.
The poison she cast was funny, pretending to be strong when she was scared was funny, and making people faint in public in the ancestral hall was even more hilarious.
He gently licked his earlobe with the tip of his tongue, and the sleeping man suddenly reacted, his body trembling slightly.
Rather than being afraid of the thrill of her suddenly waking up, he actually cared more about Jiang Li's reaction. Uncontrollable excitement was clamoring, stimulating him again and again.
What his hands wouldn't touch, her body could.
Yun Si just hugged the person tighter, hugged him tightly, and pressed him tightly, as if he wanted to become one with her.
It was squeezed so hard that it was almost deformed.
But when he thought about the person in his arms being Jiang Li, he became even more excited. Sooner or later, they would do that kind of thing, willingly. One day, they could embrace naked...
The insect seemed a little abnormally excited.
＊
He slept very soundly last night, and Jiang Li became even more suspicious: it must be related to Yun Si!
After two days of recuperation, Jiang Li's foot wound had almost healed. After two days of inactivity, now that his leg was healed, Jiang Li couldn't wait to say, "I'm going out today."
Yun Si immediately came up and said, "I'm going with my sister!"
Jiang Li pondered for a while, then said, "There are ants in the house, and I'm afraid there are more than one place. Please check where else there are ants."
Yun Si's eyes sparkled as he looked at her, "What about after the examination?"
Jiang Li avoided the topic: "I want to eat stewed mushrooms."
"Okay, then I'll make stewed mushrooms for my sister when she comes back!"
＊
Jiang Li walked eastward on the dead leaves and finally stopped in front of a deep cave. This was the cave where he was bitten by a poisonous snake when he followed Tu Niang.
She subconsciously touched the empty pockets around her waist.
During her hasty escape that day, she had lost the Gu worms she had carefully cultivated. Now, she had returned to her old place to regain her weapons of self-defense. Over the years, although she had mastered the art of controlling Gu, she had never grasped the secrets of raising them, and could only come here periodically to collect ready-made Gu worms.
Fortunately, she doesn't often use witchcraft and rarely comes here.
The sunlight at the entrance of the cave can only illuminate a small area, and further inside is the darkness that swallows everything.
A damp, cold air seeped out of the cave, mixed with the smell of decay. Jiang Li's fingertips trembled slightly, and the touch of the venomous snake from years ago seemed to still be wrapped around his ankle.
What disturbed her most was that the poisonous insects that usually swarmed in her had completely disappeared today. The entire cave was eerily silent, with only the sound of dripping water echoing off the rock walls.
She gritted her teeth and walked forward, reaching deeper into the cave.
Suddenly, Jiang Li felt a gust of wind in front of him...
Perhaps because of fear, she was able to see the scene in front of her a little more clearly.
It was a group of black bats flying in the air...
Moreover, they seemed to have seen Jiang Li and were rushing towards her.
Seeing this, Jiang Li turned around and tried to leave, but he bumped into the wall after taking only two steps.
The problem is, she has no idea where to go...
She could only grope the wall and explore with difficulty.
The dark mass of things seemed to have their own light, and as they approached Jiang Li could see more and more clearly. Those things were not bats, but were dripping with slime, and it was unclear what they were.
Such a disgusting thing. I would rather die than be touched by it...
Jiang Li calmed herself down and quickened her pace, but the stone in her hand, which had been hard, suddenly sank, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.
The cave began to shake, and a light slowly faded into darkness.
Jiang Li accidentally touched a mechanism and opened a door by mistake.
She quickly got up and, without thinking twice, walked towards the light. The dark things retreated at the sight of the light.
Jiang Li thought thoughtfully, they are afraid of light.
Behind that door was a secret room, built by someone with great skill. Looking around, I saw no opening, yet light was shining in.
The place was covered in dust and clutter, looking like it hadn't been visited in a while. She explored the surroundings and noticed a wall covered in scratches.
She could vaguely see the words.
It seems to be a person's name.
Yu Lang......
Jiang Li was stunned. She seemed to have heard this name before. Tu Niang had called this name when she was drunk before.
She continued to look, only to discover that the entire wall was covered with the word "Yu Lang," each stroke written on stone, some with bloodstains.
The scratches were either deep or shallow, round or sharp... Jiang Li could even tell Tu Niang's mood when she wrote each word.
Jiang Li picked up any piece of paper on the table, shook off the dust, and saw Yu Lang. This man was either Tu Niang's enemy or her beloved.
Jiang Li walked further inside and discovered something else: a resting area on one side and a giant cage on the other.
Jiang Li approached the cage and found a person inside. No, it should be a corpse...
The man was locked in a cage and shackled.
Jiang Li didn't go to see him. He picked up a book on the table and his eyes lit up when he opened it. It was a book on witchcraft written by Tu Niang.
The book she had found at home only described how to use it, but did not mention the effects of keeping away the poison and witchcraft, so she figured it out step by step and did not dare to use it carelessly.
For example, that day was the first time she used the love Gu.
Love Gu can bewitch people's hearts and minds, and those who are poisoned by it will inevitably fall in love with the person who poisoned them. She suddenly realized that Yun Si's unwavering devotion was due to the effect of the love Gu...
I continued to look down and saw that it was clearly written: The first effect is only three days, the second is thirteen days, the third is twenty-three days, and so on. It is also possible that the effect may last longer.
Therefore, the love poison will lose its effect after today. There is no need to bother chasing him away; he will naturally leave when the time comes.
After reading to the end, Jiang Li felt a little sorry for Tu Niang, and also learned from the information in the book that the dead body was Yu Lang.
Tu Niang and Yu Lang met on a rainy day, and they took shelter in a pavilion. Yu Lang was a dashing and charming man, which attracted Tu Niang's attention.
After that day, Tu Niang would often run into him. As time went by, they gradually became familiar with each other.
Yulang also calls Tu Niang by her nickname: Qingrong.
Tu Niang had already fallen deeply into this relationship due to the subtle teasing. Yu Lang was a rich man, and his family was not satisfied with Tu Niang. She even had the idea of eloping with him.
The two of them spent a night alone together, and the beautiful scenery and the beautiful lady and the talented man moved them so much that they crossed the line.
But the next day, Yu Lang said to her, "My family has set a date for my wedding. Tu Niang, we should not see each other anymore."
"What do you mean? Could it be that Yulang has never loved me?"
"I'm sorry that the scenery yesterday was so alluring. I didn't really like it, so I misunderstood you."
The words "I'm sorry," "I misunderstood," and "I don't like you" completely devastated Tu Niang. Unable to accept this, she had someone lock Yu Lang up in this secret room. She searched for ideas in this world that could make someone fall in love with someone else, and found the witchcraft.
She wanted to raise a love insect, to make Yu Lang fall in love with her, forever...
It turns out that Tu Niang is not cold-blooded and heartless, but infatuated, so infatuated that she only has eyes for Yu Lang. And the insects that Tu Niang raised were to test the efficacy of the love insects.
Unfortunately, she never succeeded until her death.
That man was not worthy of her at all. Love turned Tu Niang into a madman. From the tenderness of writing love poems to the lamentation and madness later, this is the life of Tu Niang after she met Yu Lang.
Yun Si tidied up the house and prepared the food.
Jiang Li had specifically requested mushroom soup before he left. He had just picked the mushrooms today, so they were fresh.
During the time Jiang Li was away, he ransacked the entire house.
The place where Jiang Li slept, the place where Jiang Li kept his clothes, the place where Jiang Li usually liked to stay...
But it was past dinner time and Jiang Li still hadn't come back.
"It doesn't matter. She might be talking about dinner." Yun Si comforted himself, then poured out the mushroom soup with an expressionless face.
If it’s not fresh, it won’t taste good. The one for Sister Ali must be the freshest.
Or maybe he wanted to take this opportunity to keep himself busy and stop thinking about it.
He couldn't get rid of the uneasiness in his heart for the whole afternoon.
I walked a long way to pick mushrooms, and I picked them very slowly...
He spent the rest of the day in the yard, waiting until evening when the sun was finally about to set.
Yun Si finally regained his spirits and energy: "It's finally evening."
If Jiang Li comes back soon, he can have something hot to eat.
But until evening, he still didn't see anyone.
In order not to hinder Yun Si's departure, Jiang Li decided to spend the night in the secret room. There were many books in the secret room, and she planned to read them.
Although she was indoors, she could still observe the changes in the weather outside. At this moment, it was already dark.
There is an oil lamp here, which is a bit old but still usable.
She lit the oil lamp and planned to leave the next day. Just as she lit it, she heard the sound of a woman crying from somewhere.
