Chapter 18: Chapter 18
Early the next morning, the Demon Removers left Crescent Moon Villa one after another.
They had to rush back and tell their families or elders of their divisions about what had happened at Crescent Moon Villa this time.
If things were really as Xu Xiu Jue and the others suspected, I'm afraid that there were not many situations like the Crescent Moon Villa, and the Demon Removers had to be ready for the possible calamity that might come.
Ji Yu woke up and prepared to leave as well.
The Xuanjia guards pulled the carriage over, and the carriage was already properly set up, soft and comfortable for people in poor health to travel in.
When Ji Yu boarded the carriage, he found that Jiang Ruqiu had also followed him.
"You ..." she asked suspiciously, "You're coming with us too?"
Jiang Ruqiu nodded his head and said rightfully, "We are husband and wife, how can a husband and wife be separated? I've heard that if a couple is separated from each other, it will hurt the couple's relationship, so I naturally want to follow my mother."
Ji Yu was silent and wanted to ask him, have you forgotten what you have done?
The memories of those demon eliminators were tampered with by him and did not suspect his identity, but after leaving Crescent Moon Villa, they were about to enter the city of mortals, and would meet quite a few more people at that time.
He couldn't tamper with the memories of everyone in this world along with him, could he?
But if he wanted to follow, Ji Yu could not refuse and acquiesced to his company.
The others didn't feel the slightest bit strange when they saw him following on the carriage.
As the carriage drove out of Crescent Moon Villa, a sound of horses' hooves came and stopped nearby.
Then, a clear voice sounded outside the carriage, "Senior Sister Ji."
Ji Yu lifted the curtain of the car and saw Xu Xiu Jue, who came riding a stallion not far away.
The spring rains had ceased, the sky was clear, and the green mountains shone vaguely against each other.
The morning sun was meandering from the other side of the mountains, and the man on the horse was bathed in the sunlight, all vast and righteous, cultivating his Wei.
"Senior Brother Xu." Ji Yu called out.
Xu Xiu Jue looked at the beauty that appeared in the window of the car, with picturesque eyebrows and icy skin, and rarely froze a little, and after regaining his senses, he hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Ji, we'll take a step first, and bid farewell on this occasion, and hope to take care of ourselves."
Ji Yu politely said, "Xu senior brother take care."
Xu Xiu Jue gazed at her, still wanting to say something, when he saw another person appearing by the car window, he was extremely close to Ji Yu, naturally taking her shoulders, and carelessly looking over towards the window.
The pair of ink-black eyes, cold as cold jade, it seems that all things in this world are not into his heart. Only when he looks down at the person next to him, those eyes have some fluctuation, become vivid.
Ji fish did not say anything, acquiesced to his actions.
Suddenly choking on the words that came to his mouth, Xu Xiu Jue looked deeply at the couple in the car who were behaving intimately and said, "Lord Jiang, Senior Sister Ji, we'll take our leave first, take care of yourselves."
Arching his hand towards them, he pulled on the reins and spurred his horse away.
The Xu Clan's disciples rode their horses to catch up, and the group galloped towards the mountain road ahead, quickly disappearing at the end of the green mountains.
Ji Yu lowered the curtain and the carriage slowly drove away from Crescent Moon Villa.
Her throat was a little itchy, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed muffledly, her body was wrapped around, a warm and strong hand patted and caressed her back, smoothing out her breath.
Ji Yu coughed for a while, dense pain came, her body became more and more weak.
Her complexion was weary, leaning there weakly, her body that was flooded with coolness was embraced by someone, a burst of warmth passed from the other party, her body seemed to be warmed up for a few moments.
So comfortable ...
She sighed softly, but didn't covet it too much, sat up and said towards the man beside her, "Thank you, I'm much better."
Jiang Ruiqiu looked at her meaningfully, seeing that she was back to her usual restrained calmness, as if the weakness just now was just an illusion, not allowing onlookers to see her vulnerable side.
He took her hand and covered this pair of cool hands between his palms, suddenly saying, "Mother, that Xu's disciple is very concerned about you, and even waited here to say goodbye to you."
Ji Yu looked at him suspiciously, nodded and said, "Senior Xu is indeed good, on the way to Crescent Moon Villa, he happened to meet them, so they traveled together as companions."
With this friendship of companionship, Xu Xiu Jue specially came over to say goodbye, she didn't think much of it.
Upon hearing this, the look on Jiang Ruqiu's face was a bit subtle before he said, "It seems that the earth is a place of etiquette."
Ji Yu didn't know why he said that and wisely kept her smile.
It couldn't be that he suddenly wanted to understand earthly etiquette, could it?
She hadn't dealt much with demons, but she knew that demons were demons, different from humans, and that earthly jurisprudence and morality couldn't regulate those demons.
Jiang Ruiqiu gathered her cold and slender hands, with a gentle and considerate look, "Mother, do you want to sleep for a while?"
Ji Yu didn't refuse, "That's fine."
She knows her own physical condition, this laying down the moon villa trip, although she does not do much, the impact is not small, the body is weaker than usual, must be well nourished.
Ji fish leaning against the wall of the car, behind the pad a soft big welcome pillow, was about to close his eyes to rest, which know a pair of hands to explore over, will her into a warm and powerful embrace.
This person looks thin when dressed, in fact, the chest is broad, strong arms, leaning in his arms, set off her more and more thin and delicate.
"You ..." she looked at him in surprise.
Jiang Ruiqiu look at her with a smile, the light in the car is dim, in this kind of ambiguous and disorienting light and shadow, his appearance is more and more demonic rule, more than a compelling siren.
Dawn is Ji fish has never cared too much about the skin, at this time also some by compulsion.
"Mother, you lean against me, so comfortable." Jiang Ruiqiu said, and then some dissatisfaction, "This carriage is really simple, how can people rest well?"
Going out, this is the boat, not to get a better car, but also special tossing people.
Ji fish look odd, "Actually quite good."
Compared to those who ride a rider to go to the end of the world of the demon remover, she traveled in a carriage, has been considered an anomaly, if you ask too much, this is to remove the demon and subdue the devil, or to go on a trip to the green?
I'm afraid that if people see her, they'll say anything.
Which knows that hearing her say this, Jiang Ruiqiu had a look of pity and said painfully, "Mother, you have suffered."
Ji Yu: "..."
It seems that normal people and demons can't communicate with each other.
Although Ji Yu is not used to it, but Jiang Ruiqiu took out the words "we are husband and wife" to block her, she did not know how to refuse, and finally had to accept his goodwill, leaning against him to rest.
Perhaps his body is too warm, surrounded by such warm breath, she quickly fell asleep.
Just after she fell asleep, she began to dream again.
In her dream, there was still that mysterious river that she couldn't see the end of, the world was pitch black, until she walked by, a cluster of flames lit up on the bank, winding and beautiful, like a dream.
Ji Yu stood by the river and saw the lantern standing by the bridge again.
She looked at it for a while, only this time, for some reason, she never saw the white-robed man coming from the other side of the bridge.
-
When Ji Yu woke up, she found that her body was warm and incomparable, and the pain that had been lingering in her body seemed to have eased for a few moments.
"Mother, you're awake."
Jiang Ruiqiu's voice rang out, helping her sit up and pouring a cup of medicinal tea to feed her.
When she finished drinking the medicinal tea, he used a handkerchief to carefully wipe away the water stains on her lips, while asking, "Just now, mama slept extremely deeply, and it seems that she even dreamed, I wonder what kind of dream she had?"
Ji Yu was silent for a moment and said, "I don't remember."
"Is that so?" Jiang Ruiqiu stared at her for a long time, not pursuing the question.
In the evening, they arrived at a small town under the Crescent Moon Mountain.
This town relies on the Crescent Moon Villa, very lively in the past, but unfortunately, in recent months, because of the Crescent Moon Villa accident, the ghosts and demons in the mountains frequently come down to infest the people, there are a lot of people who can't bear to be disturbed, and they either move out of the town or go to the nearby towns to borrow the house of their relatives to stay overnight, resulting in the town becoming extremely cold and clear nowadays.
Red Image is worried about Ji Yu's health, did not rush to rush, in the town to find an inn to settle down.
When arranging the rooms, Jiang Ruqiu rightfully shared a room with Ji Yu.
In Red Image's and other people's "cognition", they are already married couples, it is natural to live together.
Ji Yu carefully looked at Red Image and the Xuanjia guards, and found that their "memories" were still altered, so he did not say anything and acquiesced to this arrangement.
However, at night, when she was lying on the bed, there was another person beside her, which made her quite unaccustomed to it.
Jiang Ruiqiu slept on the outside of the bed, turned his body sideways to her, and asked, "Mother, can't you sleep?"
Ji Yu said, "Uh ... not quite used to it."
She really wasn't used to sharing a bed with someone.
Hearing these honest and incomparable words, Jiang Ruqiu was rarely choked, then said, "Mother, you always have to get used to it, we're already married."
At these words, Ji Yu's cheeks burned slightly, closed her eyes, and said softly, "I know."
She tried to get herself used to having an extra person by her pillow.
Although she didn't quite remember the wedding process clearly, but it was a fact that the two had paid their respects, just ...
Ji Yu once again pinpointed and realized that her eight characters were vaguely connected to someone, only her cultivation was insufficient to pinpoint anything.
Because of this, when Red Image asked her that day about any changes in her birthdate and eight characters, she failed to realize it.
Now that he had come to her side, perhaps because the two of them had spent time together, her body was tainted with his aura, finally revealing a few clues.
Seasonal fish secretly think, although Jiang died autumn is a demon, I'm afraid the identity is not simple, otherwise two people obviously already married, why is still unable to pinpoint his origin.
Generally speaking, if a couple has a marriage contract, it is possible to calculate the identity of the other partner.
The next moment, Ji Yu found herself swept into a warm embrace.
She stiffly said, "Can you let go of ..."
Jiang Ruiqiu not only didn't let go, but instead moved a few more points closer towards her, his warm breath brushing against her bare, sensitive neck as he said, "Mother, isn't this more comfortable?"
Ji Yu was once again silent.
She had already realized that leaning against him was indeed more comfortable, as if the pain in her body eased by a few points.
In fact, she didn't quite understand, obviously he was a demonic evil, but his body temperature was even higher than hers, in comparison, her body was cold and pale and bloodless, in turn, more unlike a human being.
Ji fish did not pretend to refuse, leaning against him, slowly falling asleep.
In the middle of the night, a wisp of evil wind bypassed the front door of the inn, entered through the back door, and came towards a certain compartment of the inn.
The window was quietly opened a crack, and the wisp of evil wind was just about to enter when it suddenly froze at the window.
If it had human senses, it would have looked terrified, as if all the blood in its body was about to explode, hasty and incomparable, and quickly disappeared into the air.
In the darkness, Jiang Yuqiu opened his eyes.
He slightly inclined his head, those tepid black eyes without a trace of light, indifferent and icy, like an emotionless and heartless god, looking down on the living world from above.
"Jiang Ruiqiu ..."
A murmuring voice rang out, and the tepid black eyes finally injected some fluctuations.
"What's wrong?" Ji Yu's voice full of sleepiness rang out.
Jiang Ruiqiu gently patted her back, softly coaxing, "Nothing, you continue to sleep."
Perhaps the blanket was too warm, or perhaps the pain in her body was much lighter, Ji Yu didn't resist her sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep once again.
