Upon seeing this, Yilin felt a sudden panic, her hands trembled, and she accidentally dropped him.

"what!"

Yilin exclaimed in surprise and quickly used the move "Respectfully Holding the Precious Scripture" to bend down and stretch out her arms to support him.

Fortunately, the move was executed quickly enough to prevent Jiang Sishui from falling.

However, the little nun herself was unsteady on her feet, and with a stumble, she fell directly into Jiang Sishui's arms.

Jiang Sishui seemed to be hit in pain, and instinctively reached out to cover her chest with her arms, but instead hugged the little nun.

313 A young nun's heart begins to stir with first stirrings of love.

Yilin was already unsteady on her feet, and with Jiang Sishui's hug, she leaned even further forward.

By sheer coincidence, the girl's smooth forehead landed right on Jiang Sishui's lips.

Yilin felt a heat on her forehead. She was startled at first, then realized what was happening and panicked.

She quickly propped herself up and took two steps back before standing.

In the darkness, the girl blushed deeply, feeling her ears and neck burning.

She never imagined that she would have such intimate contact with a man.

In an instant, the girl felt a surge of mixed emotions: the instinctive shyness of a young woman and the shame of breaking the Buddhist precepts.

Just as she was at a loss, Jiang Sishui took two heavy breaths.

Yilin composed herself and asked with concern, "You...you...I'm sorry, I...I didn't mean to. Does your wound hurt?"

Jiang Sishui clutched her chest and waved her hand, "It's alright, you should rest."

In the urgency of the situation, Yilin was solely focused on protecting her savior and did not consider her own exhaustion.

Once I settled down, I felt as if my entire body and limbs were about to fall apart.

Hearing Jiang Sishui say this, she didn't try to be brave. She sat down and started panting heavily.

Jiang Sishui reminded her, "You were so focused on running that you forgot to regulate your breathing. That's a major taboo for martial arts practitioners. It's easy to get injured like that."

Yilin blushed slightly and said, "Thank you for your guidance, brother. My master had taught me this before, but I was in such a hurry that I forgot."

After a pause, she asked again, "How much pain does your wound cause?"

Jiang Sishui thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't hurt much anymore, just a slight numbness and itchiness."

Yilin was overjoyed: "Alright, alright, the numbness and itching of the wound is a sign of healing. I didn't expect it to heal so quickly."

Seeing her boundless joy, Jiang Sishui felt a little ashamed, but the plan couldn't be abandoned halfway, so she didn't show it at all: "That's thanks to your sect's elixirs."

"Brother, do you know which faction I belong to?" Yilin asked in surprise.

Jiang Sishui chuckled: "You're dressed as a nun, have no hair, and possess martial arts skills, so you must be from the Hengshan Sect."

Yilin was taken aback upon hearing this, then suddenly realized.

Yes, she was a nun, and there was only one nunnery in Jinzhou where nuns practiced Buddhism, and it was most likely the Hengshan Sect's.

It's not hard to guess at all.

Yi Lin smiled shyly and said bashfully, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh at me, brother. I... I'm really stupid. By the way, brother, my name is Yi Lin."

Jiang Sishui smiled and said, "My surname is Jiang. You can call me Brother Jiang. There's no need to address me as 'Brother Jiang' anymore."

Yilin blushed slightly, but did not refuse: "Yes, Brother Jiang... Brother Jiang."

The young nun was already beautiful, with a clean and pure temperament, like a celestial maiden of Buddhism, holy and otherworldly.

Now, her cheeks are flushed with a blush, revealing the shy charm of a young girl, just like a peony touched by morning dew, making her even more beautiful and incomparable.

Jiang Sishui also knew that this girl was simple-minded and innocent, as kind as a glass of clear water, which made her feel a little more affection for her.

My thoughts wandered, and I ended up staring at it for a while.

Yilin felt the other person's gaze on her, and her heart skipped a beat. She stammered, "Brother Jiang, are you hungry? Thirsty? Should I go find you something to eat?"

Jiang Sishui shook her head and asked in return, "How did you encounter that flower thief?"

"He sneaked into my room while I was asleep, used acupressure on me, and then secretly took me away," Yilin said, somewhat annoyed.

However, when this was mentioned, she suddenly thought of something.

Wasn't she protected by the "Kunji Seal"? How come that lecherous thief had no effect on her when he attacked her?

How is this going?

The young nun, who was naive and confused after the sudden change, hadn't realized this before, but now she finally remembered.

The little nun pondered for a while with her not-so-bright little brain, but she couldn't find an answer, and her little face couldn't help but wrinkle.

Jiang Sishui assumed she was upset about being kidnapped that night and comforted her, saying, "Fortunately, it's all over now. Just be more careful in the future."

Yilin nodded slightly, no longer thinking about it.

She looked up at Jiang Sishui and said softly, "I have to thank Brother Jiang for this. If it weren't for your help, I would have been in serious trouble. But... but I've caused you to be so badly injured, Brother Jiang... I..."

As he spoke, his eyes involuntarily reddened.

Seeing that the girl's tears were about to spill again, Jiang Sishui quickly said, "Don't cry, don't cry. If you cry and your face is all messed up, people will think I'm bullying you. Then I won't be able to clear my name even if I jump into the Yellow River."

Upon hearing this, Yilin quickly stopped crying and said apologetically, "I didn't mean to cry. I just... I'm sorry, am I really useless?"

Jiang Sishui shook her head, then sighed and said resentfully, "It's a pity that I messed up my training. These past two days, I've lost one-tenth of my strength. Otherwise, I could have captured that little scoundrel in one move!"

If it were anyone else, they would just think Jiang Sishui was bragging when they heard her say that, but Yilin was different.

Yilin is simple-minded and straightforward, without many hidden agendas.

Therefore, she immediately believed Jiang Sishui when she said that.

"Ah, your skills haven't recovered and you're injured. What should we do?"

Yilin was filled with worry.

Jiang Sishui smiled and said, "It's alright, I'll be fine after exercising for a while. It won't bother me."

As he spoke, he straightened his body, regulated his internal energy, and began to circulate his qi.

Yilin didn't dare to disturb him, so she mustered her spirits and protected him.

 (Okay) Time passed slowly, and no pursuers came. Yilin couldn't help but relax a little.

When she looked at Jiang Sishui again, she saw that his complexion had become rosy, and she knew that his injuries were improving, which made her even happier.

As she watched, Yilin's heart was suddenly stirred by ripples that grew increasingly turbulent and difficult to calm.

Yilin panicked and quickly turned her head away.

However, after a short while, she couldn't help but look over there again.

And so on and on.

It's unclear how many times Yilin glanced around, but her gaze met Jiang Sishui's...

Yilin was startled and quickly closed her eyes and turned around, her heart pounding wildly.

However, Jiang Sishui's loud laughter came from behind.

Yilin blushed and asked shyly, "Why...why did you laugh at Zhou?"

Just as Jiang Sishui was about to speak, a shooting star streaked across the sky to the left of the mountain, leaving a long trail of fire in its wake.

314 The young nun wants to return to secular life? The flower fairy enters the celestial realm.

"Look! A shooting star!" Jiang Sishui pointed to the sky.

Yilin looked in the direction she was pointing and said, "Senior Sister Yijing said that if someone sees a shooting star and ties a knot in their sash while making a wish, as long as they tie the knot and make their wish before the shooting star disappears, their wish will be fulfilled. Do you think that's true?"

Jiang Sishui pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know. We might as well give it a try, but I'm afraid we won't be able to act that quickly."

As he spoke, he picked up his belt and said, "You should get ready too, or it will be too late."

Yilin picked up her sash and stared blankly at the horizon.

Although it is already autumn, there are many shooting stars tonight, with one streaking across the sky every few moments.

However, the meteor was fleeting; with just a flick of Yilin's finger, it vanished.

She let out a soft "ah" and waited again.

The second meteor streaked from west to east, its trail quite long. Yilin moved nimbly and managed to tie a knot in it.

Jiang Sishui smiled and said, "Good, good! You succeeded! May Guanyin Bodhisattva bless you and grant your wish."

Yilin sighed and said, "I was so focused on tying the knot that I wasn't thinking about anything else."

"Then you should hurry up and think it through first. Recite it a few times in your mind so that you don't forget to make a wish when you're busy tying the knot," Jiang Sishui suggested.

Yilin nodded slightly.

Clutching his sash, he couldn't help but think, "What should I wish for? What should I wish for?"

Suddenly glancing at Jiang Sishui, her cheeks flushed red, and she quickly turned her head away.

Just then, several shooting stars streaked across the sky. Jiang Sishui shouted repeatedly, "Another one! Hey, this one's really long! Did you tie a knot? Are you going to run out of time again?"

Yilin was in a state of turmoil, and deep in her heart, there was a faint desire.
