The next day, I woke up early. Xiao Longnu was still sleeping on the bed. I didn't take advantage of her when she was in danger. Xiao Longnu slept on the bed while I slept on the floor.

I didn't wake her up and quietly walked out of the room. I stood at the door and looked at a plum tree with a plum blossom bud facing the door. I remembered that it was already November and it was about to enter the twelfth lunar month. It seemed that he could spend the new year on Peach Blossom Island this time.

The sky was still bright and the sun had not risen. I closed the door and jumped onto the roof. Looking at the morning glow on the horizon in the distance, I took a deep breath and enjoyed the peace and beauty of the morning.

After a long time, the sun rose from the east.

I heard Xiao Longnu's voice. I quickly went down the roof and went in to answer her.

"Where did you go?" She looked a little anxious.

"I was on the roof. I didn't go anywhere. What's wrong?" I thought something had happened to her again.

"Nothing. I just didn't see you when I opened my eyes, so I thought you were gone.”Xiao Longnu heaved a sigh of relief and resumed her usual cold tone.

I shrugged and said,"Wait here. I'll go get some water to wash my face."”

Coincidentally, a servant came in with a basin of water to wash his face, so I didn't have to go personally.

"Alright, since someone sent it over, I'll wipe your face.”

I helped Xiao Longnu up and asked the servant to bring the water closer. Then, I wrung the towel and wiped Xiao Longnu's face.

Her face was not made up, but she was more beautiful than those coquettish people who were covered in rouge. Her face, which was covered in a layer of water vapor, made her immortal aura even fresher.

I've clearly done these things over the past few days, but only at this moment did I admit that I was indeed a little tempted.

I didn't show it. I just gently wiped her beautiful face, not leaving a corner behind.

After wiping her face, I picked up a green comb and helped her tidy her hair. I don't remember someone once said,"A girl can only have one boy to comb her hair in her life."”

Yes, even though I've only been with Xiao Longnu for a month, I'm moved. A month ago, I didn't think highly of her coldness. Perhaps this is what love is. Perhaps this is why I had the feeling of staying in the tomb and not wanting to leave.

"Have you finished combing?" Xiao Longnu's cold words woke me up from my first awakening of love and my joy.

"Ah, I'm done." I quickly put down the comb and sat her down next to the bed.

"I'm hungry!" She blinked her beautiful eyes and said.

"Please follow me," the servant said.”

"Do you still want me to carry it?" I said gently to Xiao Longnu.

"Yes." She didn't refuse. It seemed that her body couldn't move yet.

Fortunately, she has been eating honey and drinking very little water since she was injured. Otherwise, if she needed to relieve herself, I don't know how embarrassing it would be.

I carried the bag on my shoulder and the gourd on my waist. So, I carried Xiao Longnu on my back and followed the servant out of the room.

When they reached a hall, Ye Lui Jin was already sitting there.

Seeing us arrive, he stood up and said,"Brother Yang and Miss Yang are awake." I've just laid out the dishes for Brother Yang to eat. There was also some honey for Miss Yang.”

"Thank you so much!"

After dinner, I should carry Xiao Longnu on my back.

"Brother Ye Lui, I still need to bring my sister to find someone to treat her. Therefore, I will repay your hospitality in the future.”I cupped my hands and bid farewell.

"In that case, Brother Yang, Miss Yang, we will meet again.”Ye Lui Jin also cupped his hands in farewell." I'll send you out."”

……

After bidding farewell to Ye Lui Jin who had a good character, we continued on our journey.

I carried Xiao Longnu steadily and used my unique qinggong. I hurried on, and the people and things around me retreated. As for the comments of some martial artists, even the wind couldn't cover up their nonsense. However, I didn't have the time to stop and listen to their comments.

This time, we followed the official road to the southeast and finally arrived at the Yangtze River area. Next, he just needed to take a boat down the river. It was much faster and could save a lot of time.

I carried Xiao Longnu along the river and finally found a Beggar's Sect's stronghold.

The three beggars guarding the door saw us approaching and greeted us warily." Who are you? What are you doing here?" The boats here don't carry people."

"My name is Yang Guo, I'm your Sect Leader's nephew. I want to go to Peach Blossom Island!" I went straight to the point.

"Yang Guo? Our Sect Leader's nephew? Do you have any proof?" a dark-skinned beggar said.

"Proof? Didn't your leader tell you what I look like? If you don't know me, call your ship manager out, he should recognize me.”I said kindly.

"Alright, just you wait!" A beggar said and went in.

After a while, footsteps sounded from inside the door. A person came out. It was Beggar's Sect Elder Lu Youjiao. He often goes to Peach Blossom Island to meet Auntie Guo and report on Beggar's Sect." Although he hated my father to the core, he didn't hate me as well.

"Brother Yang Guo, it really is you.”Lu Youjiao said happily.

"Elder Lu, greetings!" My hands were holding Xiao Longnu's legs, but I couldn't bow.

" Brother Yang, what's on your back…" Xiao Longnu was a living person, so Lu Youjiao could naturally see it.

Xiao Longnu was also looking at Lu Youjiao. Fortunately, after leaving the tomb, Xiao Longnu's eyes remained as if she had never seen or seen anything like this. If she had a cold gaze, it might cause some unnecessary misunderstanding.

"She's just a girl I saved, but her life is at stake." Now, I have to rush back to Peach Blossom Island and ask Aunt Guo and Old Evil Huang to save her life.”

Li Mochou did not have a good reputation in the game, and Ancient Tomb Sect was implicated. Moreover, we've heard rumors along the way. The group of scum who escaped from Mount Zhongnan a month ago were all saying that Xiao Longnu was as ruthless as Li Mochou. Even though the disciples of Quan Zhen Sect were helping Xiao Longnu to clarify things and there were many knowledgeable people in the game, if I said that I was carrying Xiao Longnu on my back, there might be people who wanted to fish for fame and reputation who would jump out to " exterminate the evil and defend the path ". Of course, the premise was that the person was not mesmerized by Xiao Longnu's beauty.

Fortunately, Xiao Longnu had never left the tomb before. Other than me, Li Mochou and the rest of the Quan Zhen Sect's Daoists, no one knew what Xiao Longnu looked like. We had much less trouble along the way.

"Brother Yang is also going to Peach Blossom Island? It just so happens that I just came here from Xiangyang this morning. I'm also going to Peach Blossom Island to report some movements of the Mongolian army to Leader Huang and Great Hero Guo.”Lu Youjiao said.

"Then let's go on the way!" I said happily.

"Miss Yang, you will be fine soon!”I tilted my head and said to Xiao Longnu.

"Yes!" She responded weakly.

Even though I've been constantly injecting Nine Suns True Qi into her along the way, her meridians are all broken and she still needs more treatment. My medical skills aren't good, and I don't have any tonics. It's not enough to just rely on internal energy. Her injuries were still worsening. Not long ago, she could still say a few words, but now she could only respond.

I don't want her to die because I'm tempted.

I carried Xiao Longnu on my back and followed Lu Youjiao to set off on the boat.

On the ship, I never left Xiao Longnu's side. Lu Youjiao was also 'very tactful' and didn't disturb us.

Sometimes, Xiao Longnu didn't understand why I was looking at her so strangely and even asked me. I just smiled and replied," If I want to see it, I will." She listened and didn't probe further. She was a person who would do whatever she wanted, so she naturally wouldn't ask me again.

During the few days I spent on the ship, I had another dream at night. It was still the dream of that girl in green. In my dream, the girl in green still called me "brother". This time, she still didn't hear my reply and disappeared.

However, the fog that separated us was dissipating. I think we'll be able to unveil that mystery soon.
