Chapter 19 The inner elixir is lost(1/2)
Although he has his heartache for me written in his eyes, I always feel that something is wrong with him now.
She pulled his sleeve and said softly: "It doesn't matter to me. To avoid a long night and many dreams, let's go get the inner elixir first."
Bai Zimo patted my back gently and said calmly: "Okay, I listen to you, then I will go in by myself and you can rest here!"
I was worried that Bai Zimo would be in danger if he went in alone, so I insisted on accompanying him, but Liu Yiran said from the side: "I asked you two to take care of my feelings. I am a snake and don't eat dog food! None of you will
Don't move, I'll go look for you!"
He said and turned around and entered the ancestral hall.
Bai Zimo chuckled lightly and didn't say much. He sat down with me as a matter of course and rested my head on his chest.
Everything that just happened, I felt like I was surviving a disaster. Compared with what I had experienced these past few days, the blank stares and scorn I had suffered in the past were nothing at all.
I pulled a piece of his silver hair, played with it between my fingers, and asked softly: "Bai Zimo, you seem to have changed. Why are you so concerned about me now?"
He rubbed the top of my head with his chin, and his magical voice penetrated my eardrums: "Because we are one, and caring about you means protecting myself!"
I believed what he said before. After all, he is in my body. If I die, he will die without a host.
But now I don't believe it.
With just one snake shadow, he can defeat Liu Yiran, the thousand-year-old snake demon.
With just one inner elixir, I can compete with that fake mountain god. A being like him doesn't need a host like me at all.
If he really did it for himself, he should rush into the ancestral hall now to retrieve his inner elixir.
Instead of sitting here quietly chatting with me.
I admit that after what happened in the past few days, I have new feelings for him, and I don't know what he thinks.
"Bai Zimo, can't you admit that you like me?" I used a little force with my hand and pulled his hair several times, blinking at him, trying to find the answer from his expression.
He was silent for a while, then held my face and looked at me deeply: "Alian, if one day you find out that I have done something bad to you, don't blame me, okay?"
My heart sank. He didn't admit that he liked me, but was looking for a way out if I might find out in the future.
What has he done to me?
"Is it the snake venom Liu Yiran mentioned?" I thought in my heart and asked.
"I will tell you everything in the future, trust me!" Bai Zimo hugged me gently, without facing my problem directly.
Maybe it's a good thing not to know the truth about some things, so I don't want to ask.
After all, my life is too short compared to his.
Enjoy the peace and happiness of the moment.
"Well, I believe you!" I nodded obediently: "Will the black shadow pretending to be the mountain god just now come back?"
Bai Zimo sighed softly: "It's a pity that she ran away today. I'm afraid she will come back in the future!"
"Who is she?" I guessed that the fake mountain god might be Bai Zimo's enemy. Perhaps he was afraid that Bai Zimo would seek revenge on her after he regained his true form, so he came to cause trouble.
But Bai Zimo said: "It's just an old friend, maybe she has some unavoidable reasons!"
Old friend?
A last resort?
Is Bai Zimo making excuses for this dark shadow that almost killed me?
Why?
What's the secret between them?
Before I could think about it, Liu Yiran rushed out of the ancestral hall in despair.
Seeing us sitting hugging each other, he said with a sullen face: "Bai Zimo, do you know what's going on below and let me in on purpose?"
When I saw Liu Yiran like this, my heart suddenly sank, and a sense of uneasiness arose spontaneously.
He asked hurriedly: "Why does it look like an eggplant beaten by frost? Where is the inner elixir?"
"Hmph, if you ask him, he must have known that the inner alchemy was not down there a long time ago, so he was so calm!" Liu Yiran said angrily.
Is the inner elixir not under the ancestral hall?
I couldn't help but look at Bai Zimo: "What's going on?"
Bai Zimo just said in an understatement: "He is going on his own, and I didn't ask him to go. How can this guy hide his little tricks from me? He doesn't want to get my inner elixir first so he can threaten me and let me go."
What does it matter if he hits a wall!"
I instantly realized that it seemed like I was the only one who was short-sighted.
The inner elixir is so important to animal immortals like them, how could they ignore it.
But Bai Zimo actually sat here calmly and let Liu Yiran go in to get the inner elixir. I thought he was doing it for me, but it turned out that he already knew the truth.
But where will his inner elixir go?
Without the inner elixir, would Bai Zimo have to exist as a shadow all the time?
But when I looked at him, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. On the contrary, Liu Yiran was jumping around in a hurry.
"You, you, you, Bai Zimo, I'm not done with you!" Liu Yiran looked angry and wanted to fight again.
"You don't use your brain, and you blame me. If you want to fight, just fight. What else can you do besides getting beaten?" Bai Zimo is also a stubborn person, and he doesn't show mercy when he speaks.
I really succumbed to these two snakes, and started fighting whenever they disagreed. The key point was that Liu Yiran couldn't beat him, and he still screamed, which made me speechless.
When Neidan lost such a big thing, they didn't care about it and only knew how to fight.
I'm getting angry right away. Can the two snakes give some priority?
"Okay, are you two finished? What's going on next? Where's the inner alchemy?" I yelled at them.
Hearing my anger, they both stopped and looked at me.
Bai Zimo sat down next to me silently: "Alian, if you stay away from this guy in the future, you will be in trouble!"
Liu Yiran was unconvinced again: "Who has bad intentions? I didn't give anyone snake venom..." He swallowed the words alive again, still afraid of death!
But I don’t worry about snake venom now, I’ll just take it.
Maybe in my heart, I always believe in Bai Zimo! So I don’t want to continue this topic.
Even if he poisoned me to confuse me, I would still be fascinated by him.
If I didn't chase these two snakes and ask them questions clearly, they would easily go off topic and lose track of what they were talking about.
What we need to figure out now is where the inner alchemy is.
"Liu Yiran, tell me, what's going on? Didn't you say before that his inner elixir was sealed under the ancestral hall and no one dared to touch it?"
Since no one has dared to touch it for thousands of years, why did Bai Zimo lose it just after he woke up?
Could someone get there first?
Who could it be?
That rockery god?
I looked at Liu Yiran without blinking. He has been in this village for thousands of years, so he must know if there is any trouble.
But he didn't know that Bai Zimo's inner elixir had been taken away. It seemed that the person who took the inner elixir was not simple.
Liu Yiran sat down on the stone bench next to him. He was probably not happy that he had thrown himself into the air just now, and he was very angry.
He raised his eyes and looked at Bai Zimo, probably because he was afraid that he didn't know if he could say something.
Seeing that Bai Zimo didn't say anything, he straightened up: "Thousands of years ago, Bai Zimo's soul was sealed, and everything peeled off from his body was banned and scattered everywhere. His inner elixir has been suppressed under this ancestral hall.
It's still there and has never been touched."
"If my guess is correct, someone should have known that he was about to wake up, so they took the inner elixir first, probably because they didn't want him to wake up!"
"There are too many people who don't want me to wake up, aren't you the same?" Bai Zimo snorted coldly, but there was no expression on his face.
"Can I do the same? I'm just joking with you, others are risking their lives, okay!" Liu Yiran actually got excited: "If I hadn't been guarding here for thousands of years, your inner elixir would have disappeared long ago.
Still waiting for you to come find me?"
I couldn't help but look at Liu Yiran. It turned out that he stayed in Yunjia Village for a thousand years to protect Bai Zimo's inner elixir. Sure enough, the relationship between the two of them was unusual.
Then why do we pinch each other when we meet?
"Then you've lost sight of it?" Bai Zimo's mouth was probably used to deal with Liu Yiran.
The honest Liu Yiran is no match for him!
Liu Yiran lowered his head: "How do I know that if you wake up, you can let others get there first! I will create a chance for you to enter the ancestral hall, but you have to disperse your power. In order to protect her, you even ignored the inner elixir. Blame me."
?”
That's right, if Bai Zimo hadn't protected me at the beginning, he wouldn't have ended up like this now.
But it’s wrong to think about it.
Since Bai Zimo already knew that the inner elixir was not in the ancestral hall, why did he ask Liu Yiran for it just now?
