Chapter 126: Two People Alone
In the darkness, Fu Yifan paused, still pulling Bai Zhi forward, leaving behind Yue Wei with a confused look on her face and Ye Lan who was dejected.
"No, they just left like that? What should we do then?" Yue Wei stared blankly at the backs of the two people getting farther and farther away and asked Ye Lan who was standing beside her.
Ye Lan thought for a while, then said unwillingly: "Follow him!"
"Ah? That's not good. That senior doesn't look very happy, and don't we still have to wait for Senior Rong to come back?" Yue Wei said.
"We've been waiting for so long but there's still no sign of him. I'm afraid that Senior Brother is temporarily busy with something and won't be back for a while," Ye Lan said as he used magic to leave marks on a nearby tree trunk and said to Yue Wei, "Just leave a message and let us know. Let's go! If we don't leave now, we'll lose him."
"Okay." Yue Wei considered that her safety could not be guaranteed if she was alone, and it was already late at night. It was quite dangerous for a person to camp in the wild. In addition to the monsters in the Tian'en Secret Realm, there were also terrifying demon cultivators. It was not a good thing for an alchemist to be stranded outside.
As for where Fu Yifan was taking Bai Zhi, he naturally followed the footsteps of his senior brother and headed to where Lin Qingqing was. After all, he was also very worried about the safety of his junior sister. But it was a bit unrealistic to look for someone in the forest at night. Fu Yifan soon lost his way in the forest and went in the opposite direction of Rong Zhao.
Bai Zhi didn't take Ye Lan's last words to heart, and continued to do what she wanted: "Brother Fu, where are we going?"
"Of course I'm meeting up with my senior brother, but I seem to be lost." Fu Yifan felt a little embarrassed. He touched his nose inadvertently and made a painful sound. He forgot that his nose was injured. It still hurts. It's all Ye Lan's fault! Every time he meets Ye Lan, nothing good will happen. If it weren't for her, how could he be so impulsive and run away with Bai Bing'er? She is such a cruel and unreasonable woman!
However, he could vaguely sense that there were two little mice following him. They were probably Ye Lan and Yue Wei. They were really haunting him.
While thinking, he remembered what his senior brother had told him, and he gritted his teeth in hatred. It was all Ye Lan's fault! He almost abandoned Yue Wei. If his senior brother knew, he would definitely skin him alive. Suddenly, he felt fortunate that the two of them were still following him so obediently, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, Bai Zhi rolled her eyes and felt speechless. How could Fu Yifan, such a grown-up, get lost?
"If you get lost, why don't you find a secluded spot and wait until daybreak? The forest at night is not a good enemy," Bai Zhi suggested casually.
Fu Yifan knew, of course, that he was just carried away by the moment and now that he had calmed down, he nodded immediately and then found a slightly larger cave nearby that could accommodate four people.
After a while, Fu Yifan and Bai Zhi settled down in the cave, followed by Ye Lan and Yue Wei. The moment they met, the four of them looked at each other, but no one spoke. They each practiced and rested, and everything was peaceful. Yue Wei finally felt relieved, after all, she was the one who was always injured, and might be left behind again in a while.
……
When Rong Zhao arrived at the scene, the unconscious Lin Qingqing was the only one in the ruined pit. There was no aura of demonic cultivation around, but traces of demonic cultivation were everywhere.
He quickly moved closer and sniffed the other person's breath. When he confirmed that Lin Qingqing was still alive, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although he was late, at least the person was still alive.
Holding Lin Qingqing's pale face, Rong Zhao gently left a kiss on her forehead. He couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'm sorry I'm late and made you suffer."
He gently touched the ends of Lin Qingqing's soft hair, his eyes filled with deep and lingering love.
Then he picked her up and carried her sideways, found a relatively flat and clean place near a water source, treated her wounds carefully, and changed her into clean clothes.
However, Lin Qingqing showed no signs of waking up. She seemed to be haunted by a nightmare and her sleep was not restful at all. In addition, she developed a high fever in the middle of the night. Rong Zhao patiently wiped her body and forehead to lower the temperature so that she would not feel so uncomfortable.
It lasted until midnight. Lin Qingqing seemed to wake up once, half-closed her eyes and called out "Senior", and then fell into a deep sleep again. At that moment, Rong Zhao thought that his identity was exposed. He then thought carefully that maybe this girl was confused in her sleep and thought that the person in front of her was the senior who took care of her in the cave.
After he felt that his identity had not been exposed, he gently scratched her nose lovingly and whispered, "Little one, get well soon."
Lin Qingqing's injuries were neither light nor serious. It turned out that the main reason for her coma was the inner demon that had arisen in her. She had been trapped in a dream and had not been able to wake up for a long time. She didn't know what had happened that day, and her battle with the demon cultivator had caused such severe damage to the forest.
Thinking of this, Rong Zhao squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. An idea occupied his mind for a long time and could not be dispelled. What exactly is the relationship between the demon cultivator and Lin Qingqing? It makes no sense to let a demon cultivator of the true demon level deal with a foundation-building cultivator. No matter how you look at it, Fu Yifan needs a demon cultivator of the true demon level to deal with him!
Moreover, Lin Qingqing was able to hold on for so long in the hands of the evil cultivator, and there was even the aura of a golden elixir on her body. Could it be that she took an elixir that could increase her cultivation level in a short period of time?
Rong Zhao couldn't help but feel distressed. It was a pity that Yue Wei was not here. If she were here, maybe she could alleviate Lin Qingqing's pain...
At this time, Lin Qingqing was trapped in her own dream, and the suffocating feeling of being unable to escape made her extremely terrified.
In addition, she saw childhood memories of Qinyu and Qingli in her dream.
As the sun sets, a weak figure follows another weak figure, stepping on each other's shadow and walking through countless quagmires. They are wearing tattered clothes and their skin is covered with dust, making it impossible to see their original appearance.
"Brother Qinyu, will someone take us away?" asked a soft female voice.
"Yes." The little hand held another little hand and answered firmly.
After a long while, the girl asked again: "Brother Qinyu, I'm hungry. How long will it take us to reach the paradise?"
The boy was already extremely hungry, but he just kept silent until the girl asked him about it. Then he remembered that his stomach was empty. He counted carefully, how many days had they not eaten? Three days? Or five days? He couldn't remember.
At this time, Mo Qinyu was so hungry that he felt dizzy and couldn't even walk steadily.
