There was a small path hidden in the forest of the valley, almost invisible in the snow. After leaving the Dragon Saliva Temple and losing the protection of the heat, it finally felt like winter on the mountain. So cold!
The path was truly a path. It was only wide enough to accommodate the footprints of the people walking in front. Before long, the snowflakes had completely covered up the place, as if no one had visited.
Zhu Changfeng looked around anxiously, trying to remember every trace he left behind, trying to imprint the difference between every tree and plant in his mind. However, in his eyes, every tree and plant looked exactly the same, and he could not tell them apart at all.
What should he do? What should he do? If Gray Fire left him, he would never be able to find him again.
"Grayfire, Grayfire, slow down!”
Grayfire couldn't stand Zhu Changfeng's snail-like speed, so he had already walked far ahead. If he passed through a few more trees, Zhu Changfeng would probably not be able to see him anymore.
Fear struck his heart. He was afraid, afraid that one day he would never see Grayfire again…He took a deep breath and shouted,""Grey Fire!"
The roar echoed in the valley, and the response from the valley was a loud rumble that gradually increased.
Zhu Changfeng was frightened by the strange sound. What, what was going on?
Just as he stood there in a daze, a white figure suddenly appeared and grabbed the back of his collar. This scene seemed familiar, Zhu Changfeng thought to himself.
In the strong wind, a few tree branches scraped his face, making him squint his eyes into slits and look at the scenery whistling past him. "Heavens, avalanche!"
Zhu Chang Feng's roar resonated in the valley, and the snow that did not have enough cohesion collapsed from the top of the mountain, forming a powerful avalanche.
Grayfire, who had wanted to let it die on its own, suddenly remembered his master's words.
Remember, take good care of Young Master Zhu. Don't let him get injured or have a relapse, understand?
He had no choice but to reluctantly turn back and save the fool who would only stand there in a daze.
After the two of them were far away from danger, Zhu Changfeng, who was thrown on the ground, let out a long sigh. "Why would there be a sudden avalanche? How strange."
The most unbearable thing in his life was to be with a stupid fool! Grayfire couldn't help but shout,"It's all your fault!"”
"Eh?" Before Zhu Changfeng could ask, he heard a familiar rumbling sound that he had only heard not long ago.
Gray Fire stomped his foot hard and grabbed Zhu Changfeng by his ankles, making him hang upside down, passing through every collapsed snow.
When they safely walked out of the forest and arrived at the hillside outside the village, Grayfire was too tired to speak. He could only sit on the side and sulk.
" Erm…Ah…" Zhu Changfeng was so scared that he couldn't speak. He didn't know what to say and could only mumble to himself,""So I was the one who caused the avalanche." It's really amazing. He never knew that he had such great ability.
Hui Huo glared at him fiercely, as if he would ignore his master's order and be sentenced to death if he said one more word, so as to appease the resentment in his heart.
However, there were people who didn't know what was good for them and couldn't shut their mouths. "But I was the one who did it the first time, so the second time won't be my fault…Ugh!”
Grayfire grabbed his throat and nailed him to the tree trunk. Bloodthirsty killing intent shot out of his eyes, which was terrifying.
"Master, Master Shang Yun."
These four words and this title were like a pot of icy spring water that extinguished the raging flames in Grayfire's chest. He loosened his grip on his throat, took off his belt, tied him to a tree, and stuffed a cloth into his mouth for peace.
Zhu Chang Feng's nimble big eyes rolled around and finally returned to Grayfire. Grayfire had wanted to eat some dry food to replenish his strength, but he didn't know what to eat.
Grayfire treated Ganliang as an annoying person. After taking a few bites, he felt that the cold Ganliang was just like that person, making people despise him.
" Wu wu…" Zhu Changfeng struggled on the tree as if he had something to say. His struggle had torn at an old wound, and his face was contorted with pain.
Remember, take good care of Young Master Zhu. Don't let him get injured or have a relapse, understand?
Even though he was so angry that smoke rose from his head, Grayfire still could not forget his master's instructions. He took off the cloth soaked in saliva and threw it on the ground in disgust.
"Grayfire."
Grayfire looked at him impatiently.
"Grayfire, are you wearing a veil?”
"Veil?" Did he hear wrongly?
"Please cover your face with a veil.”
"I don't want to." Why was he asking for trouble? It was unnecessary! No matter how ugly he looked, he would not care about other people's strange gazes.
Grayfire was unaware of his eye-catching appearance.
"Grayfire, do you hate me for pestering you and staying by your side?”
"Nonsense."
Oh, although he already knew, the power of hearing it directly was still so great that it was enough to hurt his heart. Half of his heart seemed to be in pain."Then do you want more Zhu Changfeng by your side?”
"Of course not!" Just thinking about it was enough to make his hair stand on end. It was as if he had accidentally fallen into a pile of caterpillars in spring. It was so disgusting that he had goosebumps all over the ground.
"Then listen to me and put on your veil, lest a bunch of Zhu Changfeng pester you when they see you.”
Grayfire frowned and didn't say yes or no, but Zhu Changfeng knew that his threat had worked. He should be happy, right?
Although Hui Huo was wearing a simple coarse cloth with a veil over his face, and his entire body was wrapped tightly under Zhu Chang Feng's threat, his elegant figure, elegant black hair, and otherworldly temperament, coupled with his white lotus-root-like soft hands, made people even more fascinated. They couldn't help but want to see the beautiful face under the black veil.
If Zhu Changfeng hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have noticed that everyone's eyes were more greedy than Zhu Changfeng's, and he hated them even more.
Was he very strange? Why did everyone look at him as if they were looking at a monster? Their eyes were so wide that they were about to pop out.
He was used to living alone in the mountains and forests. He did not like the noisy Hui Huo. He could not wait to complete his mission and stay far away from everyone, especially Zhu Changfeng.
Grayfire could tell the direction by the wind and the stars. It had an excellent sense of direction and an animal-like instinct. He followed Zhu Changfeng's brief description and headed south.
In order to send Zhu Changfeng back as soon as possible, he didn't even avoid the crowd that he was most unfamiliar with. He didn't even take a detour through a sparsely populated path. After traveling day and night, Zhu Changfeng finally couldn't take it.
"Grayfire." Although the time they spent together was still too short, under Zhu Chang Feng's careful observation, he had already figured out about seventy to eighty percent of the pure grey fire.
He knew that Grayfire would obey his master's orders and would not abandon him. He also knew that Gray Fire's martial arts cultivation was very good. He could hear him without shouting.
" Grayfire…" Zhu Changfeng, who could no longer move, fell to the ground and pretended to faint.
After running for a long time, Grayfire, who had long noticed that something was wrong with Zhu Changfeng, finally convinced himself to reluctantly turn around and come to Zhu Changfeng's side. "Hello," Grayfire kicked his head.
Zhu Changfeng, who was in pain, held back his voice.
Grayfire stepped on Zhu Changfeng's paralyzed hand and ravaged him with a force that was not strong enough to break the bones in his hand.
It was so painful, but Zhu Changfeng still didn't make a sound. He didn't want to go any further. He didn't want to hurry. The sooner they arrived at their destination, the sooner they had to part. He didn't want it.
Now, the two of them were on a remote country road with no village in front of them and no shops behind them. The vast land was rustling and raising sandstorms, rolling wildly in the flat wilderness.
Zhu Changfeng, who did not care about the wishes of others, sometimes showed the willfulness of a child.
It was almost winter, and although there was no snow in this area, the cold wind had already revealed the news that the weather was about to turn cold.
"Hello," Was he dead?
Grayfire kicked him into the grass beside the path.
Zhu Chang Feng rolled and rolled until he was covered in dust. Fortunately, the ground was dry, otherwise, he would have been covered in mud.
The dust entered his nose, making Zhu Changfeng want to sneeze, but he tried his best to hold it in. If he was exposed now, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
"Hello," Sensing that the person who was kicked away didn't move, he remembered the gray fire ordered by his master and went forward to check, then added a few more kicks.
He wouldn't die just like that, right?
Grayfire hurriedly went forward to check his breathing. Even if he wanted to die, he had to wait until he delivered him to his home. Even if he wanted to die, he had to die in his own home. He had to not die in front of him and cause him to go against his master's orders.
Her fingertips touched a weak and slow breath. Fortunately, he was not dead yet. Her slender fingers reached for his forehead. So cold!
Zhu Changfeng, who was physically exhausted, had long gone from feverish to cold. His body was so cold that he was trembling. It seemed that it was not a relapse of his old injuries, but a relapse of his childhood illness.
Most of the doctors he had seen when he was young did not allow him to overwork himself, because overworking his physical strength would cause heart disease, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zhu Changfeng, who thought he could hold on, forgot the doctor's warning and pretended to faint. He was so uncomfortable that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Hey, drink some jade spring water."
The grey fire brought him to a cave that could shelter him from the wind and started a fire, but Zhu Changfeng's body temperature did not rise. He could only hold him in his arms so that he could pass some warm air to him. He also wanted to wake him up to drink some spring water that could prolong his life and cure all diseases. This was also the reason why the Dragon Temple was called the Dragon Temple.
"Grey…"
[What did this guy say? Why does he talk in his sleep every time he dreams?]
Since he couldn't wake him up or make him drink water, Hui Huo was forced by his master to take a mouthful of jade spring water and feed it to Zhu Changfeng.
If Zhu Changfeng knew about this, he would definitely be so happy that he would fly into the sky. He would immediately be full of energy, and all his illnesses and pains would disappear without a trace.
" More…" Although he was not fully conscious, the spring water had indeed made his body feel much more comfortable. He could not help but blurt out his request.
"Zhu Changfeng, drink it yourself!" Taking the kettle for him to drink would be a waste of the sweet spring water, and the gray fire could only be fed again.
After drinking a few mouthfuls, Zhu Changfeng finally stopped talking. He obediently found a comfortable spot and slept soundly in his warm embrace.
From afar, he could see smoke curling up from the chimneys, adding a hint of human scent to the lake and mountains.
Seeing the smoke, Zhu Changfeng's first thought was," He finally didn't have to make himself dirty just to start a fire.
Ever since Master Shang Yun praised his cooking skills, Gray Fire refused to cook anymore. Zhu Changfeng, who couldn't bear to let him eat dry food all the time, took up the responsibility of cooking, including hunting and picking wild vegetables.
In addition to his poor hunting skills, his skills were improving day by day. He could cook delicious and varied dishes with limited ingredients. Every time he saw Grayfire wiping his mouth in satisfaction, he felt that everything was worth it.
He wanted Grayfire to eat more meat so that he could gain more weight. That way, when he slept with Grayfire at night, he would feel softer when he hugged him. Anyway, Hui Huo was a secular disciple and did not mind eating meat.
In the wild inn, before the dishes were all served, Zhu Changfeng was busy helping Grayfire pick up the dishes.
"Eat more. Try this jadeite white meat, this honey roast duck, and…"
Zhu Chang Feng's solicitous manner was like he was serving his ancestor, causing the people at the table to want to laugh. They were even more curious about what this beautiful girl who was dressed in plain clothes and wearing a veil looked like.
Everyone thought that the person who would make a tall man care so much must be a beautiful girl who was difficult to look at.
A tall but weak scholar like woman with a slim and graceful appearance, it was hard not to have bad intentions.
In order to see the woman's appearance and satisfy their growing curiosity, some people secretly made a bet.
A6 was certain that under the black veil was a stunningly beautiful face.
B7, on the other hand, poured cold water on her, thinking that if she was a beauty, she wouldn't dare to show her true face to others, so she was definitely an ugly woman who was too embarrassed to see others.
While the two of them were arguing, some busybodies joined in, and it turned into a bet. Everyone pushed B7 to think of a way to let everyone see the beauty's true appearance.
Grayfire, who originally had a good hearing, was distracted by Zhu Changfeng, who was beside him. He didn't pay attention to the argument in the distance.
"How far is it?"
"My hometown is in Jinan, but my family should have gone to Yangzhou for the winter. I heard from my parents that they were originally southerners, so they were not used to the cold winter in the north." However, I grew up in the north, so I'm quite used to it…" Zhu Changfeng's answer, which could have been solved with a few words, was turned into a long speech by him. His saliva was flying everywhere, and his speech was not clear.
"Jinan?"
"No, no, no, Grayfire, you can't leave me in that empty house. I'll starve to death and freeze to death. Please, you can't!”
"Cut the crap." His master only said that he would send him to his house. How could he care if there was anyone at home?
Pretending to be drunk, B7 walked over to the grey fire and blocked the waiter's path.
"Sir, please make way."
"Oh." Yi Qi's footsteps were unsteady and he staggered. When Hui Huo moved to the side to give way to him, he turned to the other side and took away his gauze hat. At the same time, it also affected the soup of the waiter and spilled on Hui Huo's sleeve.
Wow!
Exclamations of praise rang out, and everyone was stunned. He didn't expect to see a fairy-like girl in this inn.
Everyone only noticed her delicate face, her two eyebrows, her clear autumn pupils, her straight nose, her exquisite sandalwood mouth, and her silky long hair, which slightly reflected the rare warm sun outside the house. She looked like a fairy who had walked out of a painting, but they did not notice the heroic spirit and displeasure in her eyes.
Did he look strange? Why was everyone looking at him as if he was a monster? He did not deliberately lift his veil to obstruct their eyes, so why were they so surprised that they could not even close their mouths?
"Ah! Does your hand hurt?" Zhu Changfeng didn't notice that Grayfire's veil had been pulled off on purpose. He was only concerned about his hand that had been splashed by the hot soup. He anxiously pulled him up and rushed straight to the lake he had just seen.
"Quick, quick, quick, pull up your sleeves. I'll help you pat the cold water.”
"No need." It only splashed on her clothes. What was he doing? Grayfire didn't know why he was so anxious, so he thought he was going crazy again.
"No, I must."
Zhu Chang Feng tried his best to pull away from Gray Fire. Suddenly, with a swoosh, Gray Fire's sleeve was torn, revealing the snow-white skin that had been tempting Zhu Chang Feng's imagination. Still holding the torn sleeve in his hand, he tried his best to defend himself with a blush and a heartbeat."I-I didn't do it on purpose. I'll buy you a new one. Or…or I'll help you sew. Although I've never held a needle and thread before, I think with my dexterity, it shouldn't be too difficult…Ah!”
Seeing Dumb Dumb retreat in a sorry state, Gray Fire was about to remind him out of kindness, but Zhu Changfeng kept talking, so Gray Fire had no room to interrupt. He didn't want to stop him either, so he just watched him fall into the lake.
"Help, help! I don't know how to swim…Help, help!”Zhu Chang Feng floated up and down in the lake, his heart aching when he saw that Grayfire had no intention of saving him. How could he not move at all? What about the life of his master that he valued the most? What about the master's order that no matter how much he hated him, he could not violate? Zhu Chang Feng struggled with all his might.
While he was floating and sinking, Zhu Changfeng actually saw something that he could not even dream of-Gray Fire smiled, and it was a very happy smile!
He had been working hard these past few days, but he did not expect to see the results on the verge of death? Did the grey fire have to see him suffer to be happy? This, this was too inhumane!
Even so, Zhu Changfeng knew that if he was still alive in the future, he would still exchange his suffering for Hui Huo's smile.
"Idiot, use your legs to stand properly!”
Perhaps it was because of the different scolding and scolding from Hui Huo, Zhu Chang Feng, who was struggling between life and death, obediently listened to his orders. Only then did he realize how stupid he was.
It turned out that he had fallen on the shallow shore, and the water was not even up to his knees.
"Hehe." Zhu Changfeng laughed at himself and plucked the water grass hanging on his head. Forget it, at least he had achieved his goal of making her smile. "Is your hand okay? Does it hurt?"
No matter where he fell, how much saliva he had eaten, or whether he would catch a cold due to his wet body in the middle of winter, Zhu Changfeng only thought about whether Grayfire's hand was scalded, whether it was serious, and where he could find a doctor to treat him.
His thoughts were simple and direct, and they were expressed in every little detail of their lives. No matter how slow Gray Fire was, no matter how hard he was, he could not not feel it.
Gradually, perhaps just a little, he was moved by him.
"Silly girl, I'm fine." Grayfire still had a smile on his face. He suddenly felt that this guy was not so annoying anymore. Perhaps his life would be more interesting with his company. He laughed and sighed at his own ridiculous thoughts. How could the people at the foot of the mountain be willing to stay on the mountain where few people could be seen?
Zhu Changfeng looked at him blankly and sighed in his heart," Her thin red lips curled up slightly, like a butterfly dancing freely in the spring, stealing all his attention and mind. She existed only for him.
His heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of his chest.#
