for sheath

Chapter 3

In the evening, the snow that had stopped for a day suddenly fell from the sky again, filling the sky and the earth like white petals.

Those two people stood there like statues, motionless, and after a while, their heads and shoulders were covered with half a finger-deep snow.

Xi Cang quietly waited for death to come, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement.When he realized something was wrong, the person in his arms had closed his eyes at some point, and he could barely detect his pulse, and his body was even more icy than ice.

Xi Cang was terrified, he hurriedly hugged him back to his room regardless of his serious internal injuries, wrapped him tightly in a quilt, and then busied himself with lighting the furnace to boil water, and when the hot water was ready, he hurriedly moved him to the steaming room. In the tub, he kept pushing the uterus to invigorate his blood. After working for more than an hour, the man's body temperature finally showed signs of warming up.

After another half an hour, Xi Cang realized that he had woken up at some point, and hurriedly asked, "Master, how do you feel?"

Although Xi Qing's body has warmed up, his tone of voice is still as cold as ice for thousands of years, and he only said, "I... am not your master."

Xi Cang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and only now felt his internal organs were churning, so he couldn't bear it anymore, turned his back and vomited two big mouthfuls of blood, he knew that his internal injuries were serious He had to quickly adjust his breathing, but he was afraid that if he blinked, the person in front of him would disappear.

"Master...Master, if you want to leave, I know I can't stop you. I... am not afraid of death, but your skill has always been unstable and may disappear at any time, and you don't know how to take care of yourself. I dare not think about that. I don't want to think about the terrible event. So I think... I don't want to die now, even if it's like air, I don't care, I just ask you to allow me to stay by your side."

Xi Qing is silent.

Xi Cang wiped off the blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth again, walked around in front of him, held his still cold left hand, knelt down on one knee, and said slowly, "We have lived together for ten years, and we have never had any problems in these ten years. We separated, but now you want me to go, but without you, where should I go? I thought I was just air in your eyes, but now I understand that you are not my air, without you I can only suffocate to death, so as long as you can live well, I am willing to be your air for the rest of your life."

Hearing this, Xi Qing finally turned her head to look at him slowly.

At this moment, Xi Cang's face was so pale that it turned blue, and beads of cold sweat kept coming out of his forehead. It could be seen at a glance that he was trying his best to endure the great pain at the moment, but he still watched without blinking. The person in front of him was waiting for his answer.

"You...will regret it." Xi Qing said.

But Xi Cang smiled, "I won't regret it later, you will only know when you die, so let me stay with you until I die." After he finished speaking the last word, his body suddenly softened and fell to the ground.

Xi Qing watched blankly, not moving at all.

I don't know how long it took before Xi Cang woke up faintly from the icy ground. When he looked up, his heart that had already been twisted and uncomfortable suddenly hung up again.

"Master?"

Xi Qing actually maintained the previous posture and sat motionless in the already cold bathtub, and the water on the surface of the bucket had already formed a thin layer of ice.

At this time, it might be too late to boil the water again. In a hurry, Xi Cang picked up the man and hurried back to the room. After putting the man on the bed, he took off all his clothes and got into the quilt naked. The person with a trace of warmth is embraced into his arms, regardless of his own internal injuries, he uses his pure yang internal energy to drive the person in his arms away from the cold.

Although I have seen and touched his naked body more than once when I helped the person in my arms to take a bath these years, it is the first time that we hug each other unreservedly like this. Although I usually hug when I sleep, but At that time, it was all separated by clothes. At this time, Xi Cang only felt that the body of the person in his arms was slippery and cold, and the cold air was penetrating into the bone marrow. chill.

Time passed quietly, and I don't know how long it took. Xi Cang began to feel that his consciousness was gradually blurred, and his internal energy was exhausted.He didn't know if Xi Qing showed mercy to him in the previous two times, all he knew was that he couldn't hold on anymore.

When he woke up again, it was already bright outside the house, and he didn't know what time it was.There was nothing in his arms, Xi Cang glanced anxiously at the room and there was no one there, his mind was empty at that moment, he put on his clothes indiscriminately and rushed out the door.

Outside the house, the wind was strong and the snow was tight, and I searched back and forth, but there was no sign of it.

Is he really gone?

When Xi Cang's brain was dazed, he felt that his eyes were darkened, and he couldn't even stand still, but the blackness in front of him was getting closer and closer. He blinked his eyes twice, and then took a closer look.

Xi Qing's robes fluttered like a butterfly in the night, and she was returning from the back mountain without a trace on the snow.

"Master!" Xi Cang was overjoyed, and greeted him regardless of his embarrassment, "You didn't go, you really didn't go, that's great!"

Xi Qing didn't even look at him, and walked around him and went back to the room.

Xi Cang didn't care about this, he just felt that his heart that was about to die just now was finally alive again, and he followed closely behind the man, "Master, you are going to practice swords on the back cliff, your body is fine now Yet?"

Xi Qing ignored him, sat back on the bed and began to meditate.

Xi Cang suddenly realized that he came back at this time, that is to say, it should be late now, but the copper stove in the room was still cold, and lunch was not prepared at all, and he hadn’t made a mistake in ten years. twice.But as long as the other person didn't leave, Xi Cang clutched his still aching chest and happily went to the kitchen to light a fire to make lunch for that person.

Not long after, a bowl of fragrant cured pork rib noodles came out of the pan, with a poached egg on top and a few leaves of green vegetables. It was exactly the same as the bowl of noodles that shopkeeper Liu's daughter made for him, except that this was his first time. I don't know if it tastes that good.

Xi Cang brought the noodles into the room and put them on the table, and was about to speak, but Xi Qing opened his eyes first.

Xi Qing didn't move, nor did she look at the bowl of noodles, she just said, "Come here."

After a day, his voice was much better than yesterday. Although his voice was cold, it was not as hoarse as yesterday, but was as light and crisp as jade falling into a plate.

Xi Cang followed his advice and walked to his side.

"Come to bed."

Xi Cang took off his shoes and went to bed.

"Turn your back on me and sit down."

Xi Cang didn't know what he wanted to do, but he did it without any doubt.He turned around obediently, and as soon as he sat cross-legged, a pair of icy palms stuck to his back vest, and then a gust of cold air suddenly rushed into his body, and slowly penetrated into the seven meridians and eight meridians, In the end, it merged into the dantian, intertwined with the original masculinity in his body.

His body was hot and cold at the same time, big beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, he clenched his teeth and looked painful, and couldn't help but began to tremble slightly.

"Bao Yuan Shou Yi." Xi Qing said.

When Xi Cang heard the words, he immediately restrained his mind and had no other distractions.

Soon, he felt that the two diametrically opposed internal forces gradually began to merge and combine, lingering and endless, like a pair of lovers.

The time for a cup of tea passed, and Xi Qing paid off.

Xi Cang opened his eyes, and not only felt that most of the internal injuries he had suffered earlier had healed, but also felt that there was a chill in his body.

"Master, my internal strength seems to be..."

"I am not your master."

Xi Cang was taken aback for a moment, he clearly felt that his internal strength had risen to a new level, plus the one time ten years ago, he had obviously passed on his skills to him twice, why...

"You can call me master, but you have to remember that I am not your master."

When Xi Cang turned around, Xi Qing closed her eyes again and began to meditate.

As for him, Xi Cang didn't understand too many things, and now he doesn't care about adding a few more things.However, looking at the cold noodles on the table, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

After eating something, he went to practice as usual, but this time he didn't dare to go far, so he practiced in the open space outside the house.The sword in his hand was very ordinary. It was forged in the blacksmith's shop in the small town below the mountain. The workmanship was rough and not very sharp.However, if they stayed in this Sleepless Mountain all their lives, this sword was enough to hunt those wild animals.

In fact, he has practiced and practiced for ten years, and he has only practiced one set of swords, which is the unknown set of swordsmanship from his master.But he has practiced for ten years, but he has not achieved any results. He just practiced the sword move very well.It's just that this time he just danced one move and three moves, and it's obviously different from before. In addition to the surge in power, there is also an unexplainable emotion that slowly grows and lingers in his heart with the change of sword moves. , but unable to break out of the cocoon.

After pondering for an afternoon, I couldn't figure out why, but it was getting late.Xi Cang put away the sword, and went to boil hot water. Naturally, he also boiled the hot water for ten years, because Master's body is always cold all year round, especially in winter.He knew that this must have something to do with the kung fu practiced by the master, as well as his easy loss of consciousness.But he didn't ask the reason, because he knew that even if he asked, the master would not answer him.

After waiting for the master to take a bath, the two embraced each other and fell asleep early.

However, it wasn't long before Xi Cang closed his eyes this time before he heard the man in his arms say.

"If you don't want to leave me, then you will do three things for me."

Xi Cang opened his eyes again when he uttered the first word, "What's the matter?"

"Would you like to?"

Xi Cang said without hesitation, "I am willing."

"Then we will go down the mountain together tomorrow."

After Xi Qing finished speaking, she didn't make another sound.

Xi Cang embraced the man in his arms, feeling his pulse, but couldn't fall asleep for a long time, his heart was mixed with emotions for a moment, like joy and sorrow, he was happy, maybe he could understand him more this time down the mountain, and he was worried, he himself What is the uneasiness in my heart that cannot be eliminated?
