Flying Frosts
Chapter 22
The trees were densely packed with flowers. Layers upon layers of fresh flowers were stacked on top of each other. The small courtyard was very beautiful. The warm spring sunlight passed through the leaves, making the place feel especially warm and the flowers even more fresh and tender.
Jin Mi sat on the swing in the distance and discussed softly with LIan Qiao.
Occasionally, they would push and shove each other and laugh.
Jin Yu focused her eyes and learned embroidery from Linxiu. She silently threaded the needle and occasionally pricked her own hand. She would definitely wail in pain and frown in pain. From the initial excited state of learning, she became castrated. Seeing that she was not doing well, Linxiu would also give her a few pointers from time to time. Thus, she nodded seriously and learned painfully.
Water God and Nagayoshi sat on the scattered wooden blocks to rest. They would chat and laugh from time to time.
After returning to the Flower Realm from the Celestial realm that day, Water God Abba and Aunt Linxiu had also come back. Firstly, they wanted to get rid of the filthy and annoying matters in the Celestial realm. Secondly, they wanted to take better care of Jin Mi and her.
They were considerate, attentive, and meticulous.
They wholeheartedly wanted to make up for the past four thousand years.
"Alright, alright!
Aunt Linxiu!
Look at my embroidery!
Does it look good? "Jin Yu raised the embroidery she had just finished with with her ten miserably wrapped fingers.
Her eyes were sparkling.
Linxiu smiled gently. She took the white and winding thing and praised it. "Not bad, not bad. It's your first time embroidering a pouch. It's already very good."
After hearing this, Jin Mi did not care about Nagayoshi and the others' strange looks. She smiled contentedly.
Jin Mi also curiously came over to take a look. She frowned and asked doubtfully, "Sister?
You're embroidering a silkworm?
Or a white earthworm? "
Just as she finished speaking, Jin Yu's face darkened. The corners of her mouth twitched. She looked at her expectantly and asked, "Qui'er?
Can't you see?
Take a look again? "
Jin Mi looked at it seriously for a while and suddenly came to a realization!
She clapped and praised!
"I know!
Sister!
Is this a maggot!?
I remember that disgusting thing looks like this! "
"Maggot?
Why would I embroider that disgusting thing?
!
I … I embroidered a dragon!
A white dragon! "Jin Mi's face was red as she said angrily. She then turned around and puffed up her cheeks, ignoring Jin Mi.
When everyone heard this, they laughed until they were out of breath.
When Lin Xiu saw this, she smiled gently. After calculating the time, it was already time to eat. Thus, she glanced at everyone and decided to cook to cheer everyone up.
His father's expression changed when he heard that. It was a very interesting sight.
Jin Mi clapped her hands happily. Now that someone was cooking for her, she no longer needed to be envious of Lian Qiao.
. Jin Yu was startled, but she did not think much of it. She felt that no matter how disgusting it was, how disgusting could it be?
However, a few hours later, she was also the one who fought with Jin Mi for water to rinse her mouth. She did not care about their sisterhood at all.
The next day, Abba brought her and Jin Mi to Shang Qing Tian to find his powerful master, Shang Qing Tian Xuanling Doumu Yuanjun. Amidst the green smoke, Jin Yu followed Abba through the sandalwood door. They walked to the front of the hall and looked straight ahead.
The Lady Mother of the Chariot sat on top of a green lotus and looked at them kindly.
"Luolin sincerely requests Master to remove the Jia Lan seal on the two girls. I hope Master will forgive me for my abrupt request!" Abba's voice was like spring water, flowing slowly.
Doumu Yuanjun looked at her and removed the Jia Lan seal with a wave of his hand. He then looked at her without saying anything.
Finally, he pursed his lips and took out a blue jade and placed it on her forehead. "This gathering is complete."
He then looked at Jin Mi with a hint of pity.
He shook his head. "Filling the well with snow is futile."
Seeing this, Abba's body froze. "Master, please enlighten us."
Jin Yu was still touching her forehead. She did not understand what this Yuanjun had thrown into her body. She was sighing when she saw this Yuanjun's crow's mouth. She could not help but shiver. Her Jin Mi was very healthy. She was also looking after her. What serious matter could there be? Why did this Doumu Yuanjun's words make it sound like she did not have long to live? It was very frightening.
Doumu Yuanjun glanced at Jin Mi slightly and said in a peaceful voice that sympathized with the world, "For a person who is about to die, there is no difference whether the Jia Lan seal is removed or not."
Abba was so frightened that his voice was not as calm as usual. "Master is merciful. He saved the world from fire and water. This disciple boldly asks Master to save my daughter's life!"
Doumu Yuanjun said, "Saving one life is not merciful. Saving a hundred lives is not merciful. Saving all living beings is merciful.
A fierce tiger in the mountain is seriously injured and about to die. Should I save it or not? "
Her father answered without hesitation, "Of course I should save it!"
Doumu Yuanjun smiled calmly. "When a tiger recovers and returns to the mountain, it hunts elk and eats the weak rabbit. Although it saves one life, it hurts a hundred lives.
If there is no way to be merciful, it will only harm living beings. "
Jin Yu shook her head. She only felt that this Doumu Yuanjun's words were really too strange.
It was hard to guess.
A moment later, Doumu Yuanjun picked up a drop of water from the lotus and turned it into a pinch of incense. He put the incense into Jin Mi's palm and gently closed it. He smiled faintly and said, "Because of love, there is sorrow. Because of love, there is fear. If one is separated from love, there is neither sorrow nor fear.
May this incense help you pass the tribulation. "
Seeing this, Jin Yu gently tugged at the corner of Jin Mi's clothes and reminded her in a low voice, "Little Meat."
Jin Mi's eyes lit up. She took out Little Meat and begged Yuanjun to save it. Yuanjun smiled and said that the three of them would be able to meet in a few days.
For a moment, Jin Yu and Jin Mi were overjoyed and thanked him profusely.
Doumu Yuanjun waved his hand. In an instant, things changed and the surrounding scenery changed. They were already standing outside the Northern Heavenly Gate.
Abba bowed deeply to the west. "Thank you, Master." He turned around and looked at Jin Mi. His eyes were filled with worry. It was obvious that he took Yuanjun's words to heart.
From time to time, Abba would go to the lower realm to make rain.
After returning from Doumu Yuanjun's place, Jin Yu only felt that her body was very heavy. She felt that she could faint at any time.
When she ran back to Luo Xiang Manor, her face was already pale. She directly fell on the bed and fainted. She closed her eyes and frowned. Her fingertips were white and slightly bent.
In her dream, her body was covered with chains, some even pierced through her shoulder blades. She was surrounded by water, dark and damp. In a narrow and dark room, she could only hear the cold wind blowing. She tried her best to open her mouth and shout, but other than the muffled and broken moans, and the sound of water caused by her trembling, there was a dead silence around her.
She did not know how long she stayed there. When she was about to starve to death, a figure walked in.
He looked at her quietly and forced her to swallow the pill in his hand.
She grabbed the iron chain as if she saw all hope. She used all her strength to whimper at him.
She wanted to beg him to save her and let her go.
Because of the strong shaking, blood flowed from her shoulder blade and mixed with the water. For a moment, it was not clear whether it was pool water or blood water.
But that person was gone … She was once again in a state of loneliness.
For ten or a hundred years, she did not feel hungry. She lived in a muddle-headed way. From the beginning, she struggled fiercely and longed to go out.
In the end, her heart was dead.
She wanted to die, but she did not have a tongue. She could not even bite her tongue to commit suicide.
She did not know why she was locked in here. Her whole life was like an endless repetition. She woke up and fell asleep again.
Other than the dark, cold, and loneliness, she could not feel anything.
Thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye.
Jin Yu abruptly woke up from this nightmare. Her lips parted slightly, but she couldn't say a single word. Her throat was dry and painful.
She looked up at the moon. She was afraid of the night. The usual moonlight was a little dazzling.
She was not sleepy at all. She just wanted to find someone to talk to, even if it was just to stay quietly. At this time, she did not know how many people were still awake, but she knew that one person was definitely not asleep.
In the dark night, in the Xuanji Palace, Run Yu was half lying on a bamboo bed. His left hand was holding a bamboo scroll. He was reading. Beside him, fireflies were like lamps. They were half on and half off, flying around lightly.
"Yong'er?" Seeing her, Run Yu propped himself up. "Why are you here?
The night is cold. How can you go out barefoot? "
He threw away the bamboo scroll in his hand and greeted her.
There was a hint of reproach in his voice.
Jin Yu looked down at her red feet in a daze. She moved her toes awkwardly. Only then did she realize that she was not wearing shoes. She did not know if she had forgotten to wear them when she went out or if she had dropped them halfway.
In the next moment, her body suddenly became light. Run Yu had picked her up. A moment later, he had placed her on the bamboo bed.
She sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, allowing Run Yu to grab her feet and rub them in his palms to stimulate blood flow. Finally, he simply held her feet and placed them on his chest, not caring about the dust she had gathered along the way.
"What's wrong?" Run Yu looked at her.
Her feet were much warmer. Jin Yu only felt her heart warming up as well. Her body seemed to have escaped from the lonely and cold abyss and slowly returned to reality. Her voice was still a little dry and hoarse. She turned to look at him. Seeing that he was still holding her feet, she casually changed the topic. "How many Xian 'e has Run Yu had skin to skin contact with?"
Run Yu's hand paused. The moonlight dyed his cheeks red. He turned his head and coughed softly. Then, he looked back at her gently. "Skin to skin contact is not a child's play. If not for the heaven and earth as a witness and the parents bowing to the husband and wife in front of the hall, it would be impossible to do such a thing.
Run Yu is not a frivolous person. Since he has already agreed to marry Yong'er, how could he have any skin to skin contact with other Xian 'e?
I only hope to welcome Yong'er into the Xuanji Palace on the eighth of next month. From then on, husband and wife will be together for ten thousand years. "
Jin Yu looked at him in a daze. Thinking that she would be together with this person for the rest of her life, she suddenly felt very good. She felt that she was not worthy of him. "Mm …"
Run Yu looked at her carefully and said lightly, "Yong'er, as long as you are willing, you can tell me whether you are sad or happy."
She recalled the dream just now. She felt that after Run Yu's warmth, she did not feel so scared. She looked at him and smiled brightly. "It's nothing. I just missed you a little, so I came to look for you."
At this point, Jin Yu took out the little pouch that she embroidered that day and handed it to him. "You have always taken good care of me. I learned to embroider this from Aunt Linxiu that day. It's a white dragon. I heard that women in the mortal world will embroider pouches for the person they like to express their happiness."
Run Yu was dazed. He looked at her attentively and asked softly, "Yong'er, do you really like me?"
Jin Yu sat upright and faced him. "Water God Abba said that love is only when two people are in love with each other. But there are not so many people in the world who are in love with each other. Not everyone's life is as smooth and exciting as a story.
So … Run Yu … I may not love you, but I am willing to use my whole life to try to love you … "
Run Yu smiled softly in the shadows, as light as a breeze.
He lowered his eyes, unwilling to let her see the tears in his eyes. This was his little Yong'er. She did not need to do anything. She only needed to say a few words and Run Yu would willingly put her on top of his head.
The moonlight was very good tonight. The hazy moonlight shone on Run Yu, making him look exceptionally detached. In order to express her determination to Run Yu for a long time, Jin Yu stood up and bowed her head to gently spit on his face.
Then, she looked away. She felt that the night was very hot and her heart was numb. She felt a throbbing pain in her heart again. She looked at the moonlight as if nothing had happened.
Run Yu looked at her. He squeezed the pouch in his hand and let out a low chuckle. Then, he sat beside her and looked up at the moonlit sky.
The night was as cold as water. Small fireflies surrounded them in twos and threes, making the night seem even quieter. Jin Yu's eyelids were a little heavy. She yawned and leaned on Run Yu's arm to sleep peacefully …
