The Journey of Flower - Chapter 95
– Hidden Peach Blossom
Since she has returned from the savage wilderness, Hua Qian Gu always feels her body has an inexplicable powerful force, like the brewing of the volcano can not wait to be gushing out. But somehow was firmly suppressed. Both feeling, seems as if fierce tigers are fighting each other, at the deadlocked. When at the savage wilderness her power seemed to be forced by the circumstances to stay calm and dormant, back to the six realms, her whole body began to boiling up, as if wanted to swallow her up.
Her physical injury at that time were permanent and fatal, but now it has miraculously all healing, her figure even more swift and sharp. If not because the left out scars, she would thought that those pain she had were false. During this one year, many things has happened, her physically and mentally are exhausted, she has been unyielding to stretch out tightly, and the news of Bai Zi Hua accepting a new disciple, finally made a string in her heart completely broken.
Even if she still forced out smile pretending it was meaningless, but the pain and grievances inside her heart repeatedly accumulated layers by layers, and with the powerful demon god mixing up, constantly in her heart fiercely burning her, as if to incinerate her. Although she was unlikely to make her fall into demon path, but her internal injuries are not light. After vent her feeling, she finally calm down, and finally willing to seriously face the matter with rational.
Thousand of voices was shouting inside her heart, wanted to see him, wanted to find out what happened within this one year that she was not around. It could also said that she is stubborn, she is obsessed. So many years, she understands and absolutely believe in Shi Fu’s character as a man of his words. Since he said in front of the world before that in this life he only accepted one disciple, in her case he still hasn’t expelled her from the sect yet, so he will not attempting to take in another disciple, this matter must have other inside story.
Back to Chang Liu, her heart felt like set on speeding home (idiom), too much of the words, too much love, stuck in her chest, stuffy her breathless. She wanted to see Shi Fu, miss him like crazy, but she knew that she can not let him see her.
Today is very cold, bone chilling wind at the sea, mixed with a small hail shooting straight to her face, try to fly low, form a wall surround her body to cover. Sky haze gloomy, fearing not much time there will be a big snowstorm. Now she has no sword, she can only manage to drive the wind, but the speed is much faster than before when she flied on the sword, and soon reaching the mountains of Chang Liu.
Surrounded by darkness, floated on top of Chang Liu’s sea, faintly let out silver shimmer light, like a huge gem. Waves a wave after a wave, like a whirlpool enmeshed into inside Chang Liu.
Hua Qian Gu took out just before leaving Mount Mao, the note of “Absolute Seven Manual” imitation of the human skin mask covered in the face. Because she was in the hurry this time, did not do a good job, but it should be enough to cope with the moment, as long as she is not seen by the three Honorable Superior and that a few elders have a sharp eyes then she should be fine.
Around the Chang Liu flying in a circle, she found a few secret path all sealed, the air thickly filled with sealed, simply can’t even get close. Hua Qian Gu slightly feels a little strange, Chang Liu is the biggest sect in the immortal realm, has always been self-proclaimed very high, demons are afraid to invade, usually only a simple layer of sealed magic wall, and now why go into a lot of troubles, as if they are facing the enemy?
Fortunately, her power is a lot stronger than before, although it was a little bit difficult, finally opened a secret way into the mountains. Back to the place she had been long for, insider her heart is full of unimaginable excitement. She thought that the thick layers of barriers outside, inside the mountains would also be strict precautions, what she did not expect was that she doesn’t have to be sneaky, worry to hide. At front hall, promenade, practice field, forest ….. everywhere are empty not seeing even one person, strangely quiet.
Although in Chang Liu there are often have night curfew at night, how can there is not even one disciple to patrols? A sharp cold air rising up in her heart, since the massacre at Mount Mao, then as long as there is such an empty scene, she will always feels nervous and fear. Gently close her eyes, found a few familiar bedrooms saw people inside, her heart was slightly relax.
Looking at the Jiu Qing Hall at the top, the place always think about, did not know how many times she had a dreamed about this place. No matter how much her heart tingling still enduring, keeps telling herself definitely cannot go up there, if Shi Fi finds out she has returned, the plan to rescue Xiao Yue would be difficult.
Xiao Yue’s identity is special, or can be said that the most important prisoner of the six realms, the place of his detention must also be very secretive. Can not be rush like before only put enchantment and seal Chang Liu’s prison. She did not have any plans in advance this time, naturally understands that even with her current strength, is not enough rescued Xiao Yue with any harm. She just worried, just miss, just want to search out the actual situation. Even if there is no way to save him, if she can see him, talk to him through the secret voice that would be good.
She secretly sneaked into the jail, there is not even one guard there, carefully searching, no one was imprisoned, no wonder people did not need to guard. Xiao Yue is indeed not here … …
She was slightly frown blame herself was too reckless, should have discuss with Dong Fang first, asked him clearly. Maybe Xiao Yue has been transferred, or no longer detained at Chang Liu.
She closed her eyes and began to find Tang Bao, but found that not only Tang Bao, Luo Shi Yi and Qing Shui, they are not in the mountain. what happened? Tomorrow is Chang Liu Immortal Bouquet, they should not go out at this time ah.
She began to think, even if she did not know what happened this year, but as long as she meets Tang Bao, and then everything would be clear, wanted to find Xiao Yue also would not be too difficult, did not think that was not here, really miscalculated.
She was a bit light depressed and frustrated, leaning against the pillars, looking at the Jiu Qing Hall in a daze. She originally thought that comes this time she would see everyone, I have been waiting for this day for so long ah, but did not think no one was actually here.
She looked around, this place is still the same Chang Liu Mountain that she familiars with, but the feeling is not the same, the atmosphere is full of somber and desolate air everywhere.
Shi Fu, he is at over there where she just raise her head, it can clearly be seen.
No, she has to think the overall situation as the most important She bite her teeth, as she was ready to fly away from Chang Liu, but suddenly saw a red flash not far from here.
Who is it!
Hua Qian Gu slightly frown, thought for moment then decided to go check it. She took a closer look, that was a eleven-year-old girl, lips white, teeth white, pink carved jade cut, looking at her clothes and stature should be Chang Liu’s disciple, but she has never seen her before, the face is very.
She walked quietly in the pavilions, and then sneak into the kitchen.
Hua Qian Gu saw the girl being so sneaky, for a moment can not conclude whether she is the outside spies, or just a hungry disciple not scare of night curfew slipped into the kitchen to find something to eat. As she saw her two round hair style, looks simple and pleasant, Qing Gu assuming that she should not be a bad person.
She does not want to create more trouble, as ready to leave, she heard a burst of collapse and broken sound came from the kitchen.
She thought something happened, hurriedly dodge into the inside, surprisingly to see that child is at loss doesn’t know what to do only opens a big mouth, look at the mess on the ground, and also look at Hua Qian Gu.
Repeatedly bow down to apologize: “I’m sorry, I am sorry, I didn’t mean it, I did not mean … …” she was puzzled, clearly she was immediately applied the protective magic, how could it someone still heard or found out , and came so fast.
Hua Qian Gu was stunned, and took her for a long time to react, she must be mistaken her as a disciple who are specialized in kitchen.
Looked at her pure expression after got caught, obediently bowed her head to admit the mistake, Hua Qian Gu gently smile, gently shook her head, and then sit down, to help her clean up a mess on the ground.
“Xiao Shao Zhou (Little broom) is gone, you are a new person come to replace him?” That powder fluttering girl suddenly looks sad, with whirling tears in her eyes looked at her.
Hua Qian Gu was stunned, could only slightly nodded.
She did not expect the girl in front of her all of a sudden rushed over, her squatting body weight was instability, all of a sudden overwhelming by her pushed on the ground.
She could not react to what just happening, that girl has already buried in her arms, clinging on her kept on crying.
Although her appearance looks almost like her, but after all, she is much older than her. She was being pushed on the ground like this, felt somewhat embarrassed. She was helplessly crying so hard, her whole body like a small rabbit in the cold trembling non-stop. Hua Qian Gu can only lightly pat her back silently comfort her.
The child cried for a while, her eyes glowing in red more like a little rabbit, and bluntly wiped her nose on her clothes. And then clumsy to get up, she also found it embarrassing help her to get up.
“It is hard in the mountain to see someone who is almost the same age as me, ah, Shi Zun sent all the people with low skills and young age people away from the mountain. What is your name?”
Hua Qian Gu saw her pure eyes looking at hers, could not help frowning, gather all her thoughts, Could it be something bad happened to Chang Lie? Is Shi Fu ok?
A burst of confusion inside her mind, then she replied: “I called Xiao Qi (little seven.)
Zhu Ran, Lou Shi Yi, Hu Qing Qiu, Shang Shang Piao, Hou Xi, and Wu Qing Lou. Based on generation order, she is indeed the youngest one among the all three honorable superior’s disciples, so her ranking is seventh.
“Ah, how could you speak without opening your mouth! Where did the voice come from!”
The child in front of her dancing and gesticulating of joy in surprised, turned Hua Qian Gu around, looked at her carefully in excitement.
“I am…muted, can only speak with internal voice.”
Hua Qian Gu looked at her, as her curious eyes wide opened, twitter, lively, like the time she had just entered Chang Liu, her heart somewhat felt under an unspeakable pain.
“Ah … …” that girl face suddenly sad, felt sorry looked at her.
Suddenly she stretched out her small hand, touches Hua Qian Gu’s neck gently. Making Hua Qian Gu’s body startled, she almost thought that she already saw through her fake mask. But did not think she was just gently stroked, as if only wanted to see the wound between her throat, eyes showing distressed that could not bear.
“Seems like your wound is very serious ah, I have no way to help you to heal. ” At the beginning inside her heart in front of this Xiao Qi still had a little doubt and beware of, but after touching her, realized that she is really can not speak, felt sympathy for her all the suspicion has been eliminated, all the warnings were completely thrown away.
“Do you know how to heal the injury?” Hua Qian Gu awkwardly pulled her hand away gently, she suddenly not used to show the intimacy with the strangers, not because of disliked, but only because of her subconscious mind of low self-esteem, knowing how much scary and ugly her real face is under this fake mask.
“Um, you don’t know? I am very awesome ah, Since I was little I did not need magic, bird wings were hurt after I touched it could fly right away. I like to save people, so these years my main priority is learning Magic skill and also treatment skill, I am interested in the Five Element skill, but my father forced me to practice, he said when I get into the fight if I did not beat others then I would be get beaten by others, easily to get bullied, but I did not listen to him, I do not like to fight with others. And later came to Mount Chang Liu, Zun Shang told me that just have the ability to cure others is not enough, only to treat the symptoms but not the root cause (a temporary solution), I should have enough strength to learn to protect myself and people around me not letting them get hurt that is the right way. I think it makes sense, so I began to learn other spells, although I have been here only half a year, but already very powerful! You … you don’t know me? “
Hua Qian Gu was distracted, should she say she knew her? Is she really famous?
“I just entering the mountain … … “
“I saw you can use internal voice to speak, your magic spell should be very powerful, but also still can stay at Mount Chang Liu, not being sent away, I thought you have been practicing for quite some time!”
“I … I used to practice at Mount Shu for some time.”
“Oh, so that’s why, no wonder you didn’t know anything, already this late still came to the kitchen! Shi Zun (Mo Yan) did not tell you, Mount Chang Liu at night is very dangerous, is absolutely not allow to go out.”
“Why?”
“Because at nighttime the demon will come to Chang Liu to catch people ah, every night to catch one person, a lot of people have died, no matter how they try to prevent still can not prevent … … ” the child in front of her lowered her head and began to sobbing, “Little Broom was caught by the demon last night , he was taken directly from his heavily guarding bedroom. Everyone said he was already dead … … “
Hua Qian Gu was startled, she looked at the child in front of her who is crying sadly, suddenly she felt envy of her, she can cry as much as she wanted, vent her emotions.
But, what’s exactly going on, what have happened when she was not around. Is this something related to Qian Mu Jiu Jiu? Too many things have happened, but she is foolishly did not know anything.
She touches her head, dedicatedly used her sleeves once again to help dry her tears: “But how can you come out at night alone? Are you hungry? Wanted to find something to eat?”
No … “she lowered her head softly,” I tell you, but you can not tell other people ah. Zun Shang today I did not know because he is sick or his old injury relapse, has been coughed out blood. No matter how much I tried could not cure him, but he is not allowed me to tell Shi Zun and Ru Zun, I am very anxious, do not know what to do. Tonight he stumbled woke up for a while, suddenly said he wanted to eat peach blossom soup, but there was nothing to eat at the Jiu Qing Hall, and I also don’t know how to cook peach blossom soup. I can only sneak down, wanted to try to cook something, usually I come to the kitchen to eat, had Little Broom cooked for me, and now Little Broom is gone, I did not expect it is so difficult just cook a meal for myself… … Little Seven, are you ok……”
Hua Qian Gu staggering back two steps, lacking of strength lean against the wall, reach out to stop her arm from trying to help her.
“What….What is your name?”
“I called You Ruo, I just won the Immortal Sword Assembly today, very impressive, I originally thought you would recognize me! Hahaa … …”
Hua Qian Gu’s lips trembling slowly close your eyes. Actually … is her ah, no wonder …
“Are you OK?”
“I am fine.” Hua Qian Gu smile with bitterness and sigh. It is so absurd, what else can she say?
“You … risking the danger to run out, in order to make a bowl of peach blossom soup for Zun Shang?
“Um….” You Ruo lowered her head and poke her fingers: “Too bad, I am too stupid, don’t know how to make it. Little Seven do you know how, can you help me!”
Hua Qian GU hold back the sourness of her heart, and bits her teeth and nodded: “I’ll teach you, but you will have to do it yourself.”
“Very good!” You Ruo is cheering and rushed to hug her, although she and this Little Seven have known each other not too long, but her body has a kind of fragrant smell that makes her likes it a lot, makes her have a very familiar and close feeling with, has she ever met her before?
Hua Qian Gu was motionless then pushed her away, could not tell what kind of taste inside her heart.
This is, is the person who is about to replace her? She was very reluctant because of her special identity, she had imagined this girl would be like Ni Man Tian as a young lady from of an affluent family, she must be very pampered and had rudely behavior.
Now seeing her, she is completely different from what she imagined. No wonder Shi Fu likes her, even herself can not help but like her … …
