Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 143: A Calm Person Is Not Always Really Calm
Shu Hunu arrived at Huaiyang Pass at night. She rarely listened to Li Si and waited outside the city. She had a bad feeling, so she finally rushed over.
In fact, her intuition has always been accurate, and this time is no exception.
When she arrived at Huaiyang Pass, she happened to meet Dugu Bufu who was carrying Li Si out of the tent.
When she saw Li Si lying unconscious behind Dugu Bufu, Shu Hu Nu's expression immediately became flustered.
She hurried forward and asked, "He..."
But before she could say anything, Dugu Bufu interrupted her and said, "He is sick. We are going to Baihua Valley. You can follow us."
As he spoke, Dugu Bufu had already walked past Shu Hunu.
Only the tiger girl was left standing there, lowering her head helplessly.
She didn't expect Li Si to be so seriously ill.
After waiting for a while, she turned around absentmindedly and followed Dugu Bufu.
On the way, she saw the Cangfeng sword hanging on Dugu Bufu's waist. The sword looked tattered at this time.
This was Li Si's sword. She naturally recognized it because he often asked her to help clean it.
But how did it turn out like this ? She didn't know the reason.
…
Jiang Lian'er also went to Baihua Valley with Dugu Bufu and Shu Hunu.
Along the way, he had been using his internal energy to help Li Si nourish his meridians, but because of this, he became more aware of the weakness of Li Si's meridians at this time.
Especially the blood vessels in this man's chest and lungs, which seemed like they would be severed if the slightest force was used.
He was still forcing himself to use his energy, which was simply nonsense. Even the gentle Jiang Lian'er couldn't help but curse when she found this.
Dugu Bufu sat aside, snorting coldly with a sullen face.
The tiger girl just lowered her head and burned the bonfire without saying anything, because she could do nothing.
…
The sun and the moon alternate and time passes.
When Li Si woke up again, he was in a cave.
The air was filled with a pungent and strong smell of herbs, which made him frown unconsciously.
Where am I?
He thought so and looked around.
He found himself lying half-naked in a wooden barrel filled with warm water soaked with herbs.
No wonder the medicinal smell is so strong. Li Si looked at the bucket full of herbs, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
At the same time, he also discovered that this should be a medicine cave, because all kinds of rare medicinal herbs grew on the ground and on the stone walls on all four sides, and the number was so large that it almost covered the entire cave.
There is a small path among the herbs, which should lead to the outside. At the same time, there is a circular hole on the top of the cave, allowing sunlight and wind to come in from outside.
He had heard Hua Junjun talk about this kind of cave. This is a cave specially used to cultivate special herbs. The environmental requirements are extremely strict. Even in the Hundred Flowers Valley, there are only a few such caves.
Am I in Baihua Valley?
Li Si shook his head, feeling that he was still a little confused.
Then he raised his hands and held the edge of the barrel, probably trying to support himself to stand up.
But then he found that he had no strength in his hands and feet, so weak that even standing up became a problem.
After trying several times, he could only create some ripples in the water. Li Si had to give up the idea of standing up and leaned helplessly against the side of the wooden barrel.
"Are you awake?" At this time, a voice came from the entrance of the cave.
Li Si glanced sideways and saw Hua Junjun walking in from outside with some herbs in his hand, looking calm.
Sure enough, I came to the Hundred Flowers Valley. Li Si sighed inwardly, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Hua Junjun and asked.
"How long have I been unconscious?"
"Three months." Hua Junjun replied, walked to Li Si's Akebia, fished out some yellow herbs in the water, and then put new herbs in.
Seeing that Li Si was still smiling, she rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's already this time, and you can still laugh?"
"What's so funny?" Li Si said with a smile on his face and moved his neck.
"Life lasts hundreds of years, so every year you smile counts."
"You're just talking nonsense." Looking at his disobedient look, Hua Junjun shook his head, restrained his expression, lowered his eyes and asked.
"Do you know what your situation is like?"
Li Si was silent for a moment and did not answer this question.
Hua Junjun answered for him: "If you continue like this, you can only live for three more years at most."
The cave became quiet. Hua Junjun stood behind Li Si and put the herbs into the water one by one.
For a long time, neither of them said a word.
She didn't speak until Hua Junjun had placed the last herb.
"Didn't I tell you to be careful when walking outside? How did you end up like this?"
There was a slight tremor in her voice, which made Li Si dare not look back at her.
The light from outside the cave shone in and fell on the water in front of Li Si. Hua Junjun's figure was reflected in the water, but her face was not.
After a while, Li Si felt a drop of warm water dripping on his back.
Was it a drop of water or something else? He couldn't tell.
But without waiting for him to figure out, Hua Junjun turned his back, put the wooden plate of herbs in his hand aside, and continued speaking.
"I used herbs to regulate your meridians. You should feel better after you absorb the medicinal power with your internal energy. But I can't cure you yet, so before there is a solution, you should not fight with others, understand?"
After saying this, Hua Junjun was ready to leave. She still had to make some medicine for Li Si to regulate his qi and blood.
"I will heal you, give me some time." She said before leaving.
But in fact, she knew very well that this disease could not be cured.
Li Si naturally knew this as well.
Perhaps he wanted to ease the atmosphere, or perhaps he didn't want to burden Hua Junjun, so he smiled and made a joke.
"In fact, it doesn't matter if someone like me dies. You don't need to worry so much."
But this time, Hua Junjun behind him fell completely silent. It was a silence that lasted for a long time, shrouding the cave and lingering for a long time.
Until a low sob that could no longer be held back broke the silence, Hua Junjun turned her back to Li Si and bit her lips.
She held back her red eyes, but tears couldn't stop flowing down her face and dripping among the herbs on the ground.
"Li Si, you bastard."
She cursed in a choked voice, but she could only curse once and couldn't go on any more.
Only the simple crying sound remained in the cave.
