Chapter 112: When My Hair Grows to My Waist
In the evening, in a small valley.
Xiao Bai opened his eyes on the boulder, quit practicing, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
In the past few days, he seemed to be acting on instinct, refining the Golden Annihilation Thunder in his body during the day and practicing the "Heavenly Heart Induction Chapter" in his mind at night.
As his soul continued to recover, some pictures occasionally flashed in his mind, but these pictures were fragmented and incomplete, which made him full of doubts.
Shaking his head without a clue, Xiao Bai no longer thought about it. These pictures became more and more, and one day he would remember everything about himself.
Jumping off the boulder, Xiao Bai headed towards the straw hut.
"Are you hungry? Wait a minute, it will be ready soon!" Xiao Yixian heard the movement, turned her head, stroked her drooping hair, and smiled gently.
Xiao Bai leaned against the door frame, watching her busy with a smile. It was not that he didn't want to help, but Xiao Yixian never asked him to do it. Every time he went in, she would push him out, saying that looking at his appearance, she knew that going in would only cause trouble for her.
But this girl is really clever and has excellent cooking skills. The food she made with simple ingredients tastes surprisingly good.
Seeing her white jade hands dancing like a dance, and several plates of fragrant dishes were placed in front of her, a sentence suddenly popped up in Xiao Bai's mind.
"I stir the soup with my bare hands, and wait for you to taste it shyly!"
Hearing it casually, Xiao Yixian was stunned, her face slightly red, and gave him a big roll of eyes, and said playfully:
"You are so beautiful!"
This stinky guy, I thought he was a piece of wood after losing his memory, but he didn't expect him to be quite romantic.
At the dinner table, Xiao Yixian looked at Xiao Bai with expectation: "Is it delicious?"
Xiao Bai was a little surprised. This girl has good cooking skills, but she doesn't need to ask every meal, right?
However, he didn't know that Xiao Yixian was afraid that one day she would make delicious food, but Xiao Bai would not be willing to try it.
So every time she saw Xiao Bai eating something she made by herself, she would be very happy, wanting Xiao Bai to praise her, so that she could forget those troubles temporarily.
"That's right! Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed!" Helplessly, Xiao Bai had to change his way of praising. He felt that he was running out of words these days and couldn't find a word to praise the food directly.
"Marry me?" Xiao Yixian looked at him blankly, her eyes a little dim. Who would be willing to sleep with a poisonous woman who was full of poison?
"Why? Are you afraid that no one will want you? Don't worry, who wouldn't like such a good girl like you? Even if no one wants you, I'll take a loss and follow me!" Xiao Bai saw that her expression suddenly became a little depressed, and said jokingly.
"No one wants you! Stinky Xiao Bai!" Xiao Yixian glanced at him with her beautiful eyes, and urged softly: "Eat quickly! It's getting cold!"
After the meal, Xiao Yixian cleaned up everything, looked at Xiao Bai, and said hesitantly: "Xiao Bai, can you not practice tonight?"
The night slowly fell, not far from the thatched house in the valley, on a flat stone.
"Did you ask me to come here to accompany you to appreciate the night view?" Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Yixian who was sitting on the ground with her arms around her slender legs, feeling a little helpless.
He had thought that Xiao Yixian had something to ask him before, but he didn't expect that the girl would pull him here and sit down without saying a word.
"Xiao Bai, let me tell you a story!" Xiao Yixian looked at him with her smart eyes, her voice was ethereal and distant, with a hint of sadness.
Before Xiao Bai could answer, Xiao Yixian spoke softly with reminiscence in her eyes: "There is a quiet little village with more than 20 households. There are no cultivators there. The villagers work from sunrise to sunset and rest from sunset to sunrise."
"There is an old man in the village with excellent medical skills. He is respected by the villagers and is honored as the 'Medical Fairy'. Later, the old man adopted a baby girl, and the grandfather and grandson have been dependent on each other since then!"
"As the baby girl grew up, influenced by the old man, she became interested in curing diseases and saving lives. The old man taught all his medical skills to the little girl, and the little girl studied very hard. After a few years, she achieved success!"
"But there was one thing. The old man was determined not to let the little girl touch poison. Once, when the little girl went up the mountain to collect herbs, she collected a precious herb and came back to show off to her grandfather. But the old man was not happy at all and got angry with the little girl for the first time in his life. The little girl was scared at the time. She didn't know why and cried all night!"
When she said this, Xiao Yixian seemed to be a little nostalgic. She stared at the night sky with red eyes, but a smile on her lips.
"It was not until the next day that the old man, who was a little mentally exhausted, told her earnestly that it was a poisonous herb and she must not touch it! But he did not tell her why!"
"The little girl was also very obedient. She believed in grandpa, and from then on, she never touched poison again!"
"Later, grandpa got old and could no longer treat people. The little girl took over the old man's position and began to help the villagers with medical treatment. Her medical skills were very good. In order to thank her, the villagers gave her a name after the old man. She was very happy!"
"She was very proud of this, but the most taboo in learning medicine to save lives is to be arrogant. In order to warn his granddaughter, the old man told her about the profession of Alchemist. She realized that there are people better than people, and from then on she yearned for the magical Alchemist described by the old man!"
"She was very naive at the time. She thought that with her talent, it would not be difficult to become an Alchemist. After hearing this, the grandfather just looked at her with loving eyes and did not hit her!"
"The days passed one by one. The little girl took care of her grandfather while helping people with their illnesses. Every time she heard the words of thanks after curing someone and the old man's gratified eyes, she felt that everything was worth it!"
"Her life was busy and fulfilling. She thought life would continue like this, but suddenly one day, when she woke up, she found... found that the old man was gone!" Her voice was a little choked, and crystal tears slid down her fair cheek.
Xiao Bai sighed lightly, gently hugged her thin shoulders, and reached out to gently wipe away the tears on her cheek.
Xiao Yixian leaned her head on Xiao Bai's shoulder, sniffed, and calmed down.
"After the old man left, life returned to normal. The little girl still treated illnesses and saved lives like before, but the seed of Alchemist in her heart was also taking root. She wanted to walk out of the village and learn the magical art of refining medicine!"
Xiao Yixian did not continue to talk, leaning on Xiao Bai's shoulder, a little tired, and the desire for poison continued to eat away at her heart.
She felt that she was about to give up!
Once she started taking poison, it would be time for her to leave. She didn't want Xiao Bai to see her taking poison.
So tonight, she wanted Xiao Bai to accompany her and told her ordinary story. No matter what happened in the future, he would only remember the Xiao Yixian who wanted to become an Alchemist and cure diseases and save people, not the poisonous woman that everyone feared.
"Xiao Bai, I'm so cold!" Xiao Yixian said softly with her eyes closed.
Xiao Bai felt her thin body trembling a little, stretched out his other hand through her legs, hugged her whole body in his arms, and put his hands around her slender waist.
Xiao Yixian did not open her eyes and let Xiao Bai do what he wanted. After being held in his arms, she stretched out her two jade arms to hug his neck, buried her pretty face under Xiao Bai's neck, and stopped talking.
Time passed slowly, and Xiao Bai noticed that the girl in his arms was breathing steadily, as if she had fallen asleep, so he wanted to get up and carry her to the bed to rest.
At this moment, Xiao Yixian whispered softly, "Xiao Bai!"
"Will you marry me when my hair grows to my waist?"
Xiao Bai was a little stunned for a moment, not knowing whether she was talking in her sleep or talking to him.
However, his spiritual perception was so sharp that he noticed Xiao Yixian's slightly accelerated heartbeat and immediately knew the answer.
After a long silence, he felt the person in his arms begin to tremble a little, and said softly and firmly: "Okay!"
As the word came out, Xiao Bai felt the hand around his neck tighten again, and a faint smile seemed to appear at the corner of Xiao Yixian's mouth.
