He escaped from the pursuit of the Menba tribe. Everyone took a breath. Old Wang Ping 'an and Guru Luoba finally had the time to thank Miao Nu and Lu Yue. Only Huo Jiakai was colder to Miao girls.
The wound on Lu Yue's face had already begun to heal. This surprised everyone. Her skin's regenerative ability was too strong. However, there was an obvious dark scar on her face that stretched from the corner of her mouth to the corner of her eye. Her originally beautiful and delicate face now looked terrifying and ferocious.
Lu Yue did not dare to cast her shadow on the water. Which girl didn't like beauty? Especially in front of the opposite sex.
Guru Luoba said that they could reach a branch river in the canyon tomorrow and cross a chain bridge. If they hurried on, they could reach the white horse and the black bear the day after tomorrow. Everyone had been living a thrilling life for the past few days.
Old Wang planned to return early to report the amazing treasure found at Rainbow Waterfall. He had to ask the country for protection as soon as possible. He had a premonition that there must be someone coveting such a shocking discovery.
Lu Yue could not bear to part with Huo Jiakai, but she was afraid that everyone would feel burdened by her ugly appearance, so she pretended not to care and even laughed happily. In fact, she was very sad and just wanted to be alone.
Huo Jiakai wanted to be alone with Lu Yue. He was afraid that he would accidentally kill the Miao girl. Although the Miao girl had saved his life, he was sure that the Miao girl had hurt Lu Yue on purpose.
Everyone tried to travel as much as possible today. They only settled down after the sun was about to set. Everyone was exhausted. Strangely, Lu Yue did not feel tired.
She wanted to tell Huo Jiakai about the sudden change in the red crystal stone when she was in the most dangerous situation on the altar. However, she almost didn't dare to face Huo Jiakai now. She had to turn her face away or cover her face with her hands when she spoke.
Huo Jiakai felt even worse. He wished he could strangle the Miao girl to death. Lu Yue left Huo Jiakai and lay on her side with her clothes on. She remembered that she was very close to Huo Jiakai yesterday. Tears flowed quietly and dripped onto the grass below her.
She heard footsteps and knew it was Huo Jiakai. She quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. Huo Jiakai sat beside her and said," I know you're not asleep, so I came to talk to you."”Lu Yue didn't say anything. Huo Jiakai said," You once asked me if I could sing. You wanted me to sing a song for you. Do you still want to hear it now?" Lu Yue's tears flowed even more happily, and her shoulders began to tremble slightly.
Picture perfect memories
Scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone
causeI can't fight anymore, because I can't resist anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
... I'm all alone and I need you now
But I'm out of control, and I need you now...
Lu Yue had heard the song 'NEEDYOUNOW, I Need You Now' before, but it had never sounded better than this time. Lu Yue cried like a baby. Huo Jiakai reached out to hug her and wiped her tears. Lu Yue quickly lowered her head. She still cared about her scar.
Huo Jiakai said in a gentle tone that he had never used before," It's really okay. In my heart, you're the same. You're the most beautiful.”Huo Jiakai had never said such tender words in his life. He was surprised himself. He thought he would never say such sweet words, but today he said them very naturally. Everyone with love in their hearts is a poet.
Lu Yue turned around and raised her head bravely. She looked at Huo Jiakai with tears in her eyes and smiled embarrassedly. Huo Jiakai looked at Lu Yue in a daze and did not speak for a long time. Lu Yue's expression changed a few times. How ugly was her appearance?!
Huo Jiakai asked," Have you looked in the mirror?”
Lu Yue shook her head. Huo Jiakai thought about it and pulled out his dagger. The dagger was as bright as a mirror.
"Take a look for yourself. I can't believe my eyes.”Lu Yue took the dagger. The dagger reflected her perfect face, leaving only a shallow mark on the injured area. It did not affect Lu Yue's original beauty at all. Lu Yue was flabbergasted. She looked at it again and again and touched it with her hand. It was very smooth. A few hours ago, there were still some rough bumps.
Seeing Huo Jiakai's thoughtful expression, Lu Yue told him about the changes in her feelings since she put on the Red Crystal Stone. She specifically emphasized the obvious changes in the Red Crystal Stone on the altar today.
At that time, Lu Yue had a feeling that if Huo Jiakai had not stepped forward to be the first sacrifice and reversed the situation, the Red Crystal Stone would have undergone even more shocking changes. However, she could not guess what would have happened.
Huo Jiakai had no choice but to believe it. Lu Yue took the red crystal from her neck and placed it in Huo Jiakai's hand. Huo Jiakai held it in his hand and it was still warm. It emitted a flowing luster and one could vaguely see the wavy curves in the crystal.
Huo Jiakai was certain that there was no such curve when he took out the red crystal stone from the ebony box. Lu Yue also said that she had just discovered this wavy curve and wondered what it had to do with the changes in the Red Crystal Stone.
"You found this. I'm returning it to you now.”Lu Yue said, how could he casually give such a precious thing as a favor? Huo Jiakai put the Red Crystal Stone on Lu Yue's neck." I'm glad that you're wearing it. It is your amulet."
Huo Jiakai analyzed," It must have something to do with the increase in your physical strength and the fact that you're not affected by the voodoo. What do you think is the most precious thing in our treasure hunt?”Lu Yue did not even want to say,"Even if those treasures are as rich as a country, I still think that this crystal is the most precious."”"Yes, so I guess that the secret cave where we obtained this crystal might be to hide this. As for such a big empty box, it might be a smokescreen.”
Lu Yue asked,"There are so many treasures in the treasure cave at the Rainbow Waterfall. Why would it hide an empty box so well?"”
Huo Jiakai said," I have a bold idea, but I can't prove it. The most precious thing in the Rainbow Waterfall Treasure Cave should be the thing in the ebony box. It might be the same crystal as the one you're wearing, or it might be something equally important. As for why it was empty, it was easy to explain. The small box inside the big box was also empty. Of course, it had been taken away by someone. Perhaps it had been stolen while transporting the treasure, or perhaps the box had been empty before. Two identical ebony boxes, one with crystals and one without crystals. The purpose was to confuse attention and protect the crystals. This also showed the importance of jingshi. What couldn't happen in a few thousand years? But now that he thought about it, it didn't make sense.”
Lu Yue smiled and said,"What can't you figure out? Tell me." Maybe I can figure it out."
She was in a really good mood right now. She had recovered her looks and knew that the man she liked was also very attentive to her. A girl who was loved by a man was qualified to be naughty and pampered.
Huo Jiakai said," In the Rainbow Waterfall Treasure Cave, why did those giant pythons only tame you? Your familiarity with snakes is far inferior to that of Miao Nu, and you can't compare to me in other aspects either. I reckon that it's the jingshi on your neck that's playing a role. Those pythons recognized jingshi. The question was, what effect did jingshi have on the python? You said that you understood what the python meant. I really don't understand this question."
When Lu Yue heard this, she looked a little embarrassed. Huo Jiakai looked at her and said,"If you know the reason, tell me quickly."”
Lu Yue said,"Do you remember that I told you that I have secrets to tell you? This is one of them."”
Lu Yue told Huo Jiakai that she had lost her mother when she was eleven years old. It was difficult to live alone, so she adopted a stray dog and named it Duoduo. Other than attending classes, Toto was inseparable from him. Lu Yue treated Duoduo as a sister and a friend. If there was anything she wanted to say, she would say it to Duoduo. She felt that Duoduo could understand, but he could not speak.
One day, she had a small conflict with a classmate at school. Her classmate's mother came to pick her up and told the teacher. The teacher did not ask for the reason and criticized Lu Yue in front of the classmates. Little Lu Yue felt wronged. She went home alone and sat in a corner crying.
At this moment, she heard someone say to her," This isn't your fault. Don't be sad. You still have me."”
