Cranes and Blazing Sun - C24
Dawn slowly opened the curtain, another colorful morning, with a fresh air came to the inn. When the first ray of sunlight pierced through the morning mist, it shone on Zhang Qingyun’s handsome face. He slowly opened his eyes and saw that Miao Rufei had fallen asleep beside him. Just as he was about to help her cover up a piece of clothing, Miao Rufei woke up and said, “Big brother Qingyun, you’re awake. Do you want to eat something?”
When Zhang Qingyun saw this scene, he was deeply moved. He said, “Fei’er, did you not sleep last night?”
Miao Rufei smiled and said, “Ai, I was sitting here when I fell asleep. Did I not disturb you?”
Zhang Qingyun grabbed Miao Rufei’s hand and said, “No, with you by my side, I sleep much better. Fei’er, you’re so nice to me, you’re like a gift from heaven to an angel, always appearing by my side when I’m in the most difficult times, always helping me take care of me wholeheartedly.”
Miao Rufei said, “Big brother Qing Yun, I’m not as good as you make me out to be. I can only stay by your side and be happy.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I owe you so much in my life.”
When Miao Rufei thought about how her master wanted her to get close to Zhang Qingyun, she couldn’t help but shed tears. She covered Zhang Qingyun’s lips with her hand and said, “Don’t say anymore, you don’t owe me. Big brother Qingyun, I owe you. It’s not good for Fei.” “Brother Qing Yun, please don’t hate Fei’er in the future.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Idiot, how can I hate you? You desperately tried to save me several times, but I didn’t even have the time to thank you. ”
Miao Rufei said, “Really? No matter what I do in the future, Brother Qing Yun will not blame me? ”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Fei’er, you’re so kind, how could you have done anything wrong?”
Miao Rufei wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said, “How can a person not do the wrong thing? What if Fei’er accidentally makes a mistake in the future?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Fei’er, don’t think too much about it. How could I bear to blame you?”
Miao Rufei asked, “How is your body?”
Zhang Qingyun tried breathing, and immediately fell back on the bed in pain, “I still can’t muster up any strength.”
Miao Rufei frowned and said, “Fifteen days of time passed in the blink of an eye. We still have to rush to Shaolin to obtain the divine bead. What should we do?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I think I can still ride a horse. Let’s go as soon as possible.”
Miao Rufei said worriedly, “No, Big Brother Qingyun, you’re not fully recovered yet. How can you walk so far?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Time is of the essence, let’s eat first,” then he got out of bed.
Miao Rufei reached out to support him and said, “Big Brother Qing Yun, you should lie down for a while. I’ll go and bring the breakfast over for you to eat.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “No need, if I can’t even get away with this, how can I ride a horse?” “No need to help me, I can go downstairs.” As she limped down the stairs, Miao Rufei trembled in fear. His heart was afraid that he would fall down.
When they arrived downstairs, Zhang Qingyun first instructed the disciples to return to the mountain. Lulu was very reluctant and wanted to take care of the Sect Leader, but Zhang Qingyun still slowly persuaded her to go back. After everyone had left, Zhang Miao and Wang Chao sat down to eat breakfast. Zhang Qingyun drank a mouthful of porridge and felt that something was wrong with the porridge. He said, “Fei’er, why is this porridge so strange?” He couldn’t help but spit it out.
Miao Rufei had yet to drink it. When she brought it to her nose, she could smell a strange scent. He found some broken powder foam inside and said, “Brother Qing Yun, don’t eat it. This porridge might be poisonous.”
A few loud laughs sounded from the door as Chu Yuxia walked in. “The two of you are very alert. Sect Leader Zhang has risen to become the next Sect Leader of the Cang Sect. However, Sect Leader Zhang had just accidentally taken one of the sect’s five poisons, the Bone Heart Poison. This poison has a ten-day duration. After ten days, it will crack and die. ”
Miao Rufei said, “Don’t try to scam others here, didn’t Brother Qing Yun eat it just now? How could he have been poisoned?”
Chu Yuxia said, “This poison is the Five Poisons Sect’s most precious treasure. As long as a person touches its lips, they will be poisoned, not to mention that Sect Leader Zhang has even tasted it before. “How could it be unreasonable?”
Miao Rufei said, “You’re very poisonous. Quickly hand over the antidote.” She took out a bowl and threw it at her.
Chu Yuxia raised her hand and caught it. Miao Rufei untied her whip and said, “Slow. Don’t you want Sect Leader Zhang’s life? What you have to do now is not to risk your life. Instead, he wanted to help this reputed one take back the four divine beads. Thus, I will give Sect Leader Zhang the antidote. “With that, he flew out of the inn.
Miao Rufei asked, “Brother Qingyun, are you really poisoned?”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I still can’t feel it, and it’s not like I can’t get lucky yet. Let’s go to the Shaolin Room first, then we can talk. ”
The two of them got up and started their journey to Mount Song. Today, the two of them arrived at the foot of the Subduing Bull Mountain. It was near dusk, and with the meticulous care and care of Miao Rufei over the past few days, Zhang Qingyun’s injuries were almost healed.
Miao Rufei said, “It’s going to be dark soon. Why are there so few people at the Fowler Mountain?” After walking so far, we still haven’t seen a single town. It seems like we’ll have to spend the night in the mountains. ”
Zhang Qingyun raised his head and looked up. The sky was filled with dark clouds. He said, “Let’s ride our horses faster. There might be a town ahead.” Suddenly, after a few flashes of lightning, before the two of them had gone far, it started to drizzle.
Miao Rufei said, “Oh my god, why are you so good at handling people? What are you doing now?”
Zhang Qingyun looked around and said, “Fei’er, look. There’s a small house not far ahead. I’ll go there and take shelter from the rain.”
Miao Rufei looked at it and said, “That’s the only way.” The two of them urged their horses towards the hut.
The hut was a thatched cottage, somewhat dilapidated, but sheltered from the rain. Zhang Qingyun shouted, “Is there anyone here? Excuse me for a moment.”
Miao Rufei asked, “Is anyone at home? Can we come in and take shelter from the rain?”
The two of them called out twice, but there was no response.
Miao Rufei said, “Big brother Qing Yun, let’s go into the clouds. There might not be anyone living in this room.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I think so too. “Let’s go in.” Just as he walked under the eaves, an old woman suddenly walked out from inside and said, “Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Zhang Qingyun hurriedly said, “Old man, we are sorry to disturb you. Since it is raining, can I borrow your place to hide from the rain?”
The old woman said, “Take shelter from the rain. Leave quickly. This place is very strange.”
Miao Rufei said, “It’s weird, it can’t be. We just need to avoid the rain.”
The old woman said, “It’s up to you guys if you’re not afraid. In any case, I already told you. “Come in,” he said, and went in.
The two of them walked in, and the old woman said, “You two go ahead and build a pile of torches here to dry. I’ll help you guys find something to eat.”
Zhang Qingyun saw that although this old man’s steps were a little messy, he seemed to be very powerful. His voice was also a bit strange as he said, “Thank you, old man.”
Miao Rufei said, “This old man is really good.” and even went to find us something to eat. ”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Yes, let’s start a fire. We can’t get sick from the cold then.” As he spoke, he brought over a pile of firewood. After casting the flint, he realized that the flint was completely soaked by the rain. No matter how hard he struck, he would not be able to fire it. He then asked, “Fei, do you have flint on you?”
Miao Rufei said, “Yes, there are. They are all wet. I can’t get them anymore. I’ll go borrow one from the old man.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “Okay, go and come back quickly. “Be careful.”
As the sky gradually darkened, Miao Rufei walked past a small room. Suddenly, a light flashed behind her. She immediately turned around and asked, “Is it an old man?” He saw the wind blowing outside the window, causing an old window curtain to flutter. He was shocked and thought to himself, “This old man is really weird, he doesn’t even light the lamp when it gets dark.” It frightens my heart out. ” He then said, “Elder, where are you?”
There was a creak outside the door. Miao Rufei immediately left the room and asked, “Elder, are you here?” Looking around, she saw a small door swaying in the wind. It let out a squeaking sound. The sound was a bit like that of an evil spirit from hell.
The pale moonlight pierced through Pu Wu’s body, and Miao Rufei unexpectedly discovered a silhouette behind her, screaming in fear.
Zhang Qingyun rushed out and said, “Fei’er, what happened to you?”
Miao Rufei was so scared that her face drained of color. “Brother Qingyun, I don’t know what to say.” He ran to Zhang Qingyun’s side and pointed to the back, not daring to look back.
Zhang Qingyun laughed, “What the hell? It was the elder who brought us food.”
Miao Rufei turned around and saw that the old lady was indeed standing not far away. She said to Zhang Qingyun, “Why is there not the slightest sound when he walks?”
The old woman said, “There’s nothing else at home. There are only two bowls of noodles. Let’s order some.”
Zhang Qingyun patted Miao Rufei and said, “It’s fine, don’t be afraid.” He walked over and took the two bowls of noodles. “Thank you very much, sir. If there’s anything to eat, we can just eat. Our flint is already wet. Can I borrow your noodles?”
The old woman said, “Sure, I won’t take it. I’ll go get it for you.” He turned and walked back into the room.
Zhang Qingyun carried two bowls of noodles to Miao Ruofei’s side and said, “Let’s eat a bowl of noodles first.”
Miao Rufei thought this old man was very strange and said, “I won’t eat it. I think this old man is very strange. There must be poison in this noodles.”
Zhang Qingyun smiled and said, “Fei’er, stop teaming up like this. How can there be so many people harming us like this? “No problem, let’s eat first.” Give it to her again.
Miao Rufei took the flint and placed it on the table. “Why isn’t she here yet? I’ll go and see what she’s up to.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “You don’t want to eat noodles, then I’ll eat first.”
Miao Rufei snatched a bowl from Zhang Qingyun and said, “Brother Qingyun, don’t eat. Let’s go take a look.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “If you don’t eat it, then I won’t be allowed to eat it.”
Miao Rufei said, “Brother Qing Yun, this old man is really strange. I’m doing this for your own good. Come, let’s go take a look.”
Zhang Qingyun said, “I won’t be eating the noodles properly, let’s go see what she’s up to.” With that said, he followed Miao Rufei inside.
