Chapter 1000: Rest
His poor physical condition made him stop temporarily when he rushed from the mountain to the foot of the mountain. Xiao Qianye carefully placed Yun Xiao next to the stream, for fear that she would worry, immediately turned her back to wash the blood on her chest. Yun Xiao covered her mouth and laughed, poked his shoulders and said sarcastically: "Don't hide and dodge. You have been in a coma all day, and the wound on your body is still the blood I have stopped for you. Don't move around. I've pierced the wound on your chest. I know it's difficult to heal. Please sit here and rest for a while."
He turned around awkwardly and happened to see Yun Xiao grinning at him. He first slid a handful of stream water and poured it on him, and then washed her dark face. But her body was covered with tincture oil sprinkled after the disintegration of the phoenix bird. The clean water couldn't be washed clean, but the more it washed, it became more greasy and sticky on the skin. Yun Xiao complained and sang her hair behind her head with a tree branch. She touched her cheeks in disgust, muttering to herself: "No wonder you don't want to bite me anymore. It's so dirty, I can't get out of my mouth even if I change it."
"I never thought about biting you..." Xiao Qianye blushed after being said by her and defended her quietly. Yun Xiao stared at him and hummed, "You are clearly staring at me with bright eyes, and you are stubborn and said you don't want to bite."
He closed his mouth cleanly and did not refute, amused by his expression, Yun Xiao stuck it over and blew it on his ear, teasing her with a smile: "Why don't you talk? I feel guilty? I remember the first time you exposed the posture of a ferocious beast, and I used the Qingmei Sword to self-harm to get blood to help you recover. Fortunately, there is no need now. Although I still feel unconscious, my heart meridians are very stable. It's a bit sudden when I wake up. Are you scared to wake up in a nightmare?"
After she mentioned this, Xiao Qianye remembered the last scene in his dream. He hugged the sixteen-year-old Yun Xiao into his arms, almost unable to suppress the impulse of youth. His cheeks suddenly turned to his ears. He quickly shook his head and leaned against Yun Xiao without saying a word to sit down and rested together.
It was late at night in a blink of an eye, and the sky was still so clear, with bright stars dotted among them, as if the earth-shaking battle in the day did not exist at all. Only the sore muscles and almost disintegrating bones reminded him what had happened. He breathed a sigh of relief, felt a little calmed down before looking at Yun Xiao worriedly, pulled her right hand and carefully checked, complaining with anger and distress: "Why do you do so randomly every time?"
"Hmm?" Yun Xiao was still trying to clean the oil stains on his face with the stream water, and replied without thinking, "It will grow soon."
Xiao Qianye paused slightly, as if he had hurt some unspeakable sadness by this sentence, and immediately covered it up quietly. Her whole right hand and shoulder were as soft as mud. As long as she used a little force, her skin would sink in. He sighed silently, pulled her back from the stream to prevent movement, and frowned in his arms, "The hummingbird who sent the message was gone. It should have fallen out of his body when he was fighting with Xinmo just now. It's trouble. Even if the three-winged bird comes to patrol, it's not easy to find us. Your wind and snow red plum blossoms are lost. That thing doesn't resonate like a sword spirit. If it falls into some rarely visited mountains, I really don't know how to find it."
"If you lose it, you'll lose it. Anyway, it was given by someone else." Yun Xiao pinched his face indifferently and replied with a smile. Xiao Qianye frowned: "That's not an ordinary weapon. It is contaminated with the divine power of the female fairy under the Queen Mother of the West. If it falls into the hands of the monster, there will be problems."
Yun Xiao leaned on his shoulder and stretched comfortably: "It doesn't matter. If it really doesn't work, I'll send a message to King Chi to come and find him. He still has a rainy green bamboo on his hand, so he must have a sense of a sword spirit. I said I won't drag you down, hehe."
He smiled, although he didn't reply, his eyes were always looking around with some restlessness. The violet miasma should be the edge of the forbidden area. The purple miasma was blown by the wind. The special smell attracted the instinct of the ferocious beast from time to time, which made him feel like drunk dizziness. With the flames on Yun Xiao's body, he had to try his best to restrain his emotions to barely keep his spirits awake. After a while, Yun Xiao noticed his abnormality, forced his head to turn around, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Well... the wound is cracked, nothing big deal." Xiao Qianye simply perfunctorily passed by. Yun Xiao leaned gently on his chest, wrapped his arm around his waist, and used his own flame to warm the ancient cold body. "What about this? Will it be better?"
"A Xiao..." He pushed Yun Xiao away embarrassedly, his ears were tinnitus one after another, and his breathing became violent in an instant. The hearts that had been suppressed for a long time seemed to be ready to move. He pursed his lips and whispered, "A Xiao, the smell on your body... is so seductive. Don't move around, okay? Just let me hold you and rest for a while."
Yun Xiao blushed to his ears. Looking at the bloody hole left after the broken horns on his forehead, he suddenly remembered that he had completely lost his mind because of the broken bone wings under the Biluo Sea. He quickly leaned on him honestly and cursed: "I told you last time that it was the most important part of the ancient species. Why did you still have no memory and break it again!"
"If you don't do this, I can't destroy the shell of the phoenix bird. It will escape." Xiao Qianye replied seriously, ignoring the wound on his forehead, and simply outlined a general map on the ground with his hands, and said worriedly, "We are chasing the mechanical phoenix bird from Jingpo Lake to the imperial capital. According to its flight speed and the current surrounding situation, it is probably located near Yanshan. This stream should be a tributary of the Xiaoxiang River, one of the three rivers. Before flowing into the empty holy land, there are many aliens living on both sides of it. We have to find a place to contact the military pavilion first, and then let the three-winged bird come as soon as possible."
"Well, it's burning everywhere here, so I have to find someone to come and put out the fire." Yun Xiao answered the words foolishly, and saw Xiao Qianye's mouth twitching awkwardly. It was obvious that his purpose was not to extinguish the burning wildfire and cough and replenish it lightly. "Yes, while extinguishing the fire, he also had to find the driver of the Phoenix Bird. Even the sword spirit of that guy's body could not be cut through. I guess he would not die if he fell from the sky. He was transformed by the poison flowing out of the Bound King's Water Bonding. If you find him, you may be able to follow the clues to pull out the black merchants who provided those poisons."
He leaned back tiredly, and did not notice a hint of unhappiness flashing in Yun Xiao's eyes. He said to himself: "Chen Xi is still leading the team to hunt down another mechanical phoenix. They have to chase it through two forbidden areas until they enter the East China Sea to avoid being affected by miasma. However, sea combat is the most dangerous. Once the three-winged bird is injured and falls into the sea, we have almost no way to provide rescue in time. Moreover, since the fall of the sky, the water flows in the East China Sea is stable and the sea demons are relatively gentle. Therefore, the navy's military is far less abundant and sophisticated than the Blue Lou Sea. If I really want to fight at the sea, I don't know how much chance of winning."
After a while, Yun Xiao opened his mouth and said nothing. Xiao Qianye sighed, rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache: "It will take about three-winged birds to chase and cross the entire Dongming day and night. If I can keep following the phoenix bird and not lose it, I should be able to catch up..."
"Are you worried about them?" Yun Xiao spoke in a low voice, gently caressing the countless fine wounds on his body. This was caused by years of running around, quietly describing the thrilling and tragic battles that no one could understand behind the glamorous legend, but he did not seem to notice the fluctuations in Yun Xiao's emotions, and even his eyes stared at the east side for a long time and nodded, "They do not have the experience of fighting with that kind of mechanical battle. Whether it is a warrior or a three-winged bird, long-term pursuit will consume energy. I have to go over and see it myself."
Yun Xiao held his wrist lightly and suddenly exerted force, followed by a nearly collapsed question: "But I'll worry about you too!"
He was stunned, and looked at Yun Xiao swallowing and lowering his head. His pale face was as light as frost. The long hair that was originally tied by a tree branch fell down to cover his eyes. He subconsciously reached out to lift the strand of hair, but Yun Xiao quickly took a step back to avoid it. She ran to the stream and kept holding water and patting her cheeks, as if she was trying her best to force the outbreak. After a while, she raised her head and took a deep breath, then turned around and smiled at him. It seemed that nothing had happened just now. She nodded and said, "Well, let's go back quickly. Chen Xi and the others would be in danger after being dragged on for a long time."
"A Xiao..." Xiao Qianye walked slowly over. For a moment, he seemed to be able to feel the fleeting despair on Yun Xiao's body, so fast that he thought it was his own illusion, but she had completely regained her smile. The stream on her face blocked the traces of tears, flashing slightly under the starlight, still so gentle, and still the most familiar thing he is to never leave, as if a sharp arrow pierced his heart, murmured, "You are crying."
"I just washed my face." Yun Xiao shook his head and denied it, pinched his right hand that had not yet recovered, and said to himself, "Wait for a while, the bones will grow soon. I will take you to the East China Sea to intercept the mechanical phoenix. Don't worry, you will definitely catch up."
"Look at me." He didn't hear a word. His cold hands brushed through her eyes and could clearly feel a hint of dampness. At this moment, the bone-thrusting sorrow made his heart twitch violently. The fierce battle ended. Under Yun Xiao's care, he stopped the cracked wound. It was her who struggled to maintain the sword formation to protect her unconscious self, but after he woke up, he immediately cared about the war in the distance!
She looked at him without turning her eyes, but her stoic expression could not hide the worry in her eyes. She stubbornly bit her lip and said seriously: "I will help you."
Xiao Qianye was speechless. His whole body was completely stiff at this moment, and even his gaze was abruptly blurred. Yun Xiao stood up and hugged him. Instead, he took the initiative to comfort him: "Don't worry, we have defeated the Phoenix Bird, and the remaining phoenix Bird will definitely be shot down soon. The tragedy that happened in the forbidden area five years ago will not repeat itself. Whether it is Chen Xi or the warrior of the Three-winged Bird, they will return victoriously."
