After parting ways with Xiao Longnu, Yue 'er walked into a room next to Hao Jian's ward...
"It seems that Brother Hao Jian doesn't like white clothes (Hao Jian said that Yue Er's white clothes are like mourning clothes when he woke up in the morning), then I'll go change back to my original clothes and return the clothes I'm wearing to Sister Long!”
After a while, Yue 'er muttered to herself as she walked out of the room with her original clothes and walked towards a strange house not far away...
This house was different from the surrounding wooden houses. It was made of stone and slate. The strangest thing was that there was not even a window on the wall, and there was a thick curtain hanging outside the door. It could be said that other than a few holes at the top of the wall for ventilation, the room was already tightly wrapped.
Soon, Yue 'er, who had arrived at the door of the house, lifted the curtain and walked in.
As soon as she entered the house, Yue 'er felt her entire body cool down. Then, a crystal clear pool appeared in front of her…
Other than the stone platform at the door, the rest of the room was filled with water. According to Sister Long, the pool was a natural hot spring. The spring water was warm in winter and cool in summer. You could bathe in it all year round. This tightly sealed room was used to keep warm. Because there were no windows to keep warm, the roof was inlaid with a few luminous pearls for illumination...
Using a luminous pearl as a candle, just thinking about it made him feel extravagant! Therefore, after Xiao Longnu rescued her yesterday and brought her here to wash up and change her clothes, Yue 'er was shocked by the lighting arrangement of this bathing pool.
Shaking her head gently, Yue Er turned around and walked to the corner. There was a rope fixed between the two stone walls at the top of the stone platform, used to hang clothes. After hanging the clothes in her hand on the rope, Yue Er slowly took off her white clothes and hung them on the rope. Then, she walked along the steps beside the stone platform into the spring pool to take a bath...
……
After taking a bath, Yue Er washed her white clothes and hung them outside to cool down. At this time, the sun had already started to set.
After treating Hao Jian's injuries, Yue 'er finally had some appetite. After drinking a bowl of porridge, she returned to her room to rest...
However, in this unfamiliar place, Yue Er tossed and turned for a long time but could not fall asleep. In addition, she was still a little worried about Hao Jian's injuries, so Yue Er finally made up her mind and put on her clothes and walked out...
After entering Hao Jian's room and gently closing the door, Yue 'er moved a stool and sat by the bed. She supported her head with both hands and looked at Hao Jian who was sleeping soundly with her big bright eyes...
Hao Jian would occasionally let out a light snore, completely like a dead pig that could not be struck by lightning or frightened by the wind and rain.
Yue Er immediately felt much more at ease by staying beside Hao Jian. Soon, a wave of sleepiness hit her, causing Yue Er to slowly lower her head until she finally fell asleep on the bed in a daze...
…………
The sun gradually rose from the east, and a new day was about to begin…
In the room, Hao Jian, who was still sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes in a daze. Don't misunderstand, this wasn't Hao Jian trying to play the game of " dancing upon hearing the rooster ". In fact, he was... woken up by choking!
Hao Jian lifted the blanket and sat up. After all, he had drunk a lot of porridge and medicinal soup yesterday. How could he not be anxious?
But as soon as he sat up, Hao Jian was stunned…
Yue Er, who had changed back to her original clothes, was sleeping soundly by the bed with her hands on her head. It seemed that she had been guarding here for another night.
A string seemed to have been quietly plucked in his heart. Hao Jian carefully got down from the bed, afraid that he would make a sound and wake Yue Er up…
Standing on the ground, although his legs were still slightly painful, it did not affect his walking. Feeling that his body had recovered, Hao Jian used his hands to slowly carry the sleeping Yue Er…
After gently placing Yue 'er on the bed and covering her with the blanket, Hao Jian, who could not hold it in any longer, hurriedly walked out.
After walking out of the house, Hao Jian no longer controlled his pace and ran towards the latrine…
Fortunately, when he woke up yesterday, Hao Jian asked Yue 'er to bring him to the toilet. However, when he recalled his experience in the toilet yesterday, Hao Jian was very puzzled. Where did the walking stick that helped him walk with his injured legs come from?
It was not until a long time later that Hao Jian learned the truth from Yue Er. As she rarely left the Unrequited Love Valley (where Xiao Longnu lived), although Xiao Longnu knew medicine, she had never practiced it. Therefore, Xiao Longnu, the intern doctor, was worried that Hao Jian's legs would be damaged, so she made a pair of crutches so that Hao Jian could walk even if the surgery failed…
Soon, Hao Jian rushed into the toilet…
A few minutes later, Hao Jian walked out of the toilet with a refreshed look on his face. However, just as he walked out, he happened to see Xiao Longnu walking into a house that was mostly embedded in the stone walls of the valley.
Hao Jian, who originally wanted to investigate Xiao Longnu's background, also walked over when he saw this…
The door wasn't closed, so Hao Jian easily walked in. Once he entered the room, he saw Xiao Longnu standing in front of a table. There were a few plates of fruits, snacks, and two candles on the table. As Xiao Longnu blocked his line of sight, Hao Jian could not see what was placed in the middle of the table. However, the most eye-catching thing was a white silk hanging on the wall. There were some words that looked like oracle bones embroidered on it. Moreover, the white silk had begun to turn yellow. It seemed to have been there for a long time...
Just as Hao Jian was looking around curiously, Xiao Longnu, who had her back to him, suddenly turned around and said indifferently,""You're awake. It seems that your injuries are no longer a big deal.”
"It's good that you know martial arts!" After sighing in his heart with envy, Hao Jiancai imitated the ancient way of speaking with a serious expression and said," Hmm…I'm here to thank Miss Long for saving my life in the karst cave. If there's anything I can do in the future…"
"There's no need for that. I only went to save you and Yue 'er because I was ordered by a senior.”Xiao Longnu interrupted Hao Jian.
" Uh... I wonder who this senior is..." Hao Jian, who was choked, asked again.
" I've never seen this senior before, and I don't know his name…" Xiao Longnu paused for a moment before continuing sadly," Granny Sun told me everything about this senior, but she passed away recently…"
"..." After hearing Xiao Longnu's words, Hao Jian, who had a strange expression on his face, really didn't know what to say.
After a while, Hao Jian, who had reorganized his thoughts, said,"I'm curious as to why that senior ordered Miss Long to save me and Yue 'er…Of course! If it was inconvenient, then forget it.”After all, the more he knew, the faster he would die. Although this Xiao Longnu in front of him looked like she was easy to talk to, it was not a bad thing to be careful.
"It's not inconvenient, but this matter is a little long to tell. However, since you're interested, I'll explain it briefly.”Xiao Longnu didn't refuse, satisfying Hao Jian's curiosity.
"Thank you, Miss Long!" In order to learn more useful information for himself, Hao Jian could only endure the discomfort and continue to talk to Xiao Longnu in the ancient way.
"This senior is an old friend of the founder of Ancient Tomb Sect, Heaven Secrets Daoist. Sixteen years ago, the Heaven Secrets Sect's sect leader was nearing his death, but he did not receive a suitable disciple. Therefore, before the sect leader died, he asked senior to accept a disciple for him to protect the sect's inheritance. Not long after, senior met Granny Sun and I by chance. Then, senior accepted me as the second generation successor on behalf of his friend and handed me the token of the ancient tomb sect leader, the Jade Girl Heart Sutra. Then, senior brought Granny Sun and I to the Heartless Valley. He also left behind a sentence,'Sixteen years later, there will be a strange sound coming from the forbidden area of the ancient tomb. I will enter to save them. If I save a man and a woman, I will do my best to help them.'Because I was still young at that time, Granny Sun remembered it for me and told me in the future. However, Senior was unwilling to reveal his name at that time, and Granny Sun asked for a long time but didn't know Senior's name…"
