Chapter 609 Reunion (3)
But he was born to delay returning until this time.

If he was caught up in the internal affairs of the Nanhua court, Chu Qifeng should have gotten the news in advance, but since it wasn't——

Then there can only be one explanation——

He was delayed for his own reasons.

Thinking of what happened before, Chu Xunyang felt a faint pain in his heart, and his breathing became a little difficult after being suppressed, and he squeezed out each word from his teeth, "Is he—is he okay?"

"Yingzi didn't say anything." Orange Hong said, but seeing the deeply suppressed expression between her brows, she also felt sour in her heart, and quickly added: "Master, there is Mr. Ghost accompanying me all the time, please rest assured, the princess. Something will happen!"

Chu Xunyang's complexion was a little unnaturally pale, and he forced a slightly weak smile, but without saying anything, he directly stepped over the threshold and entered the yard.

The two rode their horses to the Valley of Flames.

The terrain of the valley is peculiar. After passing through the maple forest, there is a mountain path full of various exotic flowers and grasses, and a section of it is built in a scattered way, half hidden under the mountain wall. house.

The houses are not very neat, some are new, some are old, some are big and some are small.

There are many wooden racks for drying herbs on the open space in front. Because the owner left in a hurry, some herbs that were hanging outside were not collected, and many of them were broken into slag due to the wind and sun.

Chu Xunyang casually picked up a leaf that seemed to be relatively intact, and didn't want to touch it with her fingers, and the leaf shattered into powder on her fingertips.

Taking advantage of the time she stopped, Ju Hong had already gone in and looked around, and said: "Princess, there is no one inside, the master and the others probably haven't come back yet. Shall we wait here, or go back to Chuzhou City first?"

"Didn't you say it's just a few days? Go and have a look!" Chu Xunyang said, brushing off the herbal foam on his fingertips, turned around and walked back quickly.

Orange trotted to keep up.

The two quickly walked through the maple forest and bypassed the wisteria flower shelf.

Chu Xunyang walked quickly, and Ju Hong followed suit. She hurriedly caught up with her and held an umbrella for her.

The two passed through the water curtain and stepped over the water flow under their feet. As soon as they walked out, they heard a low and suppressed coughing sound in front of them.

Chu Xunyang stepped on the rock in the middle of the water, and his blood and thoughts froze suddenly.

For a moment, she was almost too afraid to raise her head to look at the scene in front of her, only to hear Yingzi's somewhat incomprehensible voice in her ear saying: "Master, please put on your clothes first, be careful if you get cold again, this servant will go get it." Come here with an umbrella."

She hadn't finished speaking yet, but Deep Blue's excited voice yelled, "Ah! Princess!"

Chu Xunyang's scattered thoughts gathered together in an instant, and then he carefully raised his eyes to look over.

On the opposite side, Mr. Yanling had just got off the carriage, and he had no time to pay attention to the movement here, so he suddenly looked up in astonishment when he heard this.

Chu Xunyang was still standing under the water curtain, Ju Hong held up a big umbrella, and the water falling from a height hit the umbrella surface, splashing countless large and small water droplets, making the eyes of the two people The scenery was all hazy.

The thick water vapor scattered in all directions wet Chu Xunyang's skirt, and it fell heavily to his feet.

Lord Yanling frowned, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Hey—" Yingzi panicked, subconsciously wanting to stop her but she didn't have time.

Lord Yanling had already stepped forward, grabbed one of Chu Xunyang's wrists, and pulled her out from under the water curtain.

"Why are you in a daze, your clothes are all wet!" Pulling Chu Xunyang aside, Lord Yanling scolded in a low voice, while bending over to shake the water stains on her skirt.

But before he could bend down, he choked on the water mist splashing from the side of his trachea during his breathing, so he immediately turned his back, covered his lips with his hands, and coughed in a low voice.

Chu Xunyang ran two steps around to him, took out the handkerchief and handed it to him, and said in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with you?"

"No—" Mr. Yanling wanted to wave his hand, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help coughing again. In a hurry, he could only hold Chu Xunyang's hands together, and said She pressed the veil in her hand over her mouth and nose.

When he grabbed her hand, Chu Xunyang was even more startled——

The temperature on his hand was astonishingly cold, it was not even August yet, and it was the hottest time of the year, but there was no warmth in his hand, his bony fingers grasped hers, That touch actually made Chu Xunyang want to cry in fear.

Ying Zi looked anxious and hurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, poured out two black pills from it, and handed it over, "Master!"

Lord Yanling didn't have time to take a closer look at it, he put it in his hand and swallowed it with his head raised.

His other hand kept holding Chu Xunyang's hand, because he coughed so badly, every time he coughed, Chu Xunyang could even feel the pain in his fingers being pinched by him.

Yingzi saw that she was in a daze, and explained in a low voice: "Recently, the master's body needs to be recuperated, and I can't stand the cold!"

What she said was cryptic, but what kind of thing would make a person who seemed to be alive and well in the past suddenly unable to stand even taking a few breaths?

After a closer look at this moment, Chu Xunyang discovered that Mr. Yanling was wearing a thick fox fur, the collar was tightly wrapped, surrounded by white and soft fur, but his complexion was pale and transparent Just like the snow-white hair on the fox fur, there is no trace of blood.

Chu Xunyang's eyes turned red instantly.

Instinctively, she wanted to reach out to touch his cheek, but thinking of the wet vapor on her body, she still pulled his hand away against her will, and took a step back, not letting the cold air on her body approach him.

Lord Yanling managed to suppress the coughing, and when he looked up at her again, he smiled helplessly and said, "It's just a little cold, it's okay, you're not back in Beijing? Why are you here again?"

His voice was hoarse, with obvious exhaustion, no matter how hard he tried to hide it, he couldn't completely cover it up.

Chu Xunyang wanted to say something, but just in time for the old man Yanling to jump down from the carriage angrily grabbing a medicine basket, and said angrily, "Just blow it up! Fuck you! Let's see what you can resist!" Time to go!"

After finishing speaking, he slammed Lord Yanling on the shoulder very childishly, and then missed the two of them with his neck stuck. Without anyone holding an umbrella for him, he directly put the medicine basket in his arms to protect him, and got behind the water curtain head.

Lord Yanling really had nothing to do with his temper, and when he saw this, he just shook his head silently and smiled.

The aura between his eyebrows remained unchanged, and when he smiled, his eyebrows were brilliant and radiant, but his pale and weak face was even more frightening under the sunlight.
