Chapter 257
In a room in the outer courtyard of the Song Mansion, Ji Xing was lying quietly on the bed, his face pale and his breath was faint.
If it weren't for the slight ups and downs of his chest, Jiang Xi would have almost thought Jixing had already...
"Why don't you tell me?"
Even though Jiang Xi was pretending to be calm, the slightly trembling voice still revealed a trace of her emotions.
Lou Chen behind her was silent: "...We don't know, what should we say."
"At least, I can tell me earlier." Jiang Xi lowered his eyes weakly, "I didn't even ask him after I woke up."
Mr. Jiang Xi believed that this young man was omnipotent and powerful. Just like after she returned from the underground palace safely, she naturally thought that Jixing was safe, but she never thought that Jixing was injured earlier than her and fell asleep longer than her.
At least she showed symptoms of fever, and Ji Xing was the same as he couldn't use medicine, the same for no reason, and there was no discomfort. He was just lying on the bed, and his naked eyes were visible to him to weaken day by day.
The candlelight of life that sways in the wind may be extinguished at any time.
If Jiang Xi had not heard Chu Ji's statement that Zhou Tian's star plate might be in the hands of Princess Qingle and planned to take Ji Xing to visit the Nanning Marquis' Mansion, he would have never known Ji Xing had become like this.
Ji Xing gave everything for her, and what did she give Ji Xing?
"Don't blame yourself, after all, you have just recovered from a serious illness. Also," Lou Chen glanced at Ji Xing's weak and pale handsome face, "He will get better, I promise you."
Jiang Xi said nothing and sat down next to Ji Xing.
"I have asked Song Xu to prepare for the Nanning Marquis Mansion and go to investigate tonight."
"Um."
"I know you're worried about Crazy Star, but don't forget to pay attention to your body."
"I know, Mr. Lou Chen."
Lou Chen shook his head helplessly and had to go out.
Jiang Xi quietly looked at Ji Xing’s cold face and whispered: “I’m sorry, let you always follow me like a shadow.”
Ji Xing still seemed to have no movement at all, but no one knew that his body was changing quietly.
At this moment, a faint silver light appeared in the internal organs in Jixing's body. The silver light gradually became rich, and it flowed heavily along Jixing's blood like mercury, and it flowed heavily through every detail of his body until it reached the slowly beating heart.
The silver light gradually condensed, Ji Xing's heart beat slower and his breathing frequency gradually decreased. It took him a long breath to suck it back, like a turtle.
Then, even his blood gradually cooled down, and his whole body became more and more like a stone.
At the same time, the silver light in Ji Xing's blood was transforming his muscles and bones inch by inch.
This transformation is gradually being carried out.
At first, the force penetrated, and slowly, his tendons and veins were twisted, and his internal organs were moved, as if someone had broken his bones and reassembled them. He endured the pain repeatedly, as if he was soaked in the sea of fireworks, and those useless impurities were discharged and replaced by powerful and inexplicable power.
And his body became a cage, his soul was imprisoned. He was so painful that he could not roar and scream, but his body was still calm and had no reaction.
This gap between extreme and extreme makes Ji Xing's soul almost tear apart, calm while going crazy.
He is going crazy.
suddenly.
A warm and gentle stream of clear spring approached him, as if sweet rain had soothed all the restlessness in his soul. With that warm and peaceful force on his side, all the pain was gone, but instead he felt free to wander in the water.
Ji Xing's eyebrows and eyes stretched a lot. I don't know how long it has been, just when Ji Xing had changed from disgust to greed. He woke up.
The hazy meaning swept away when he opened his eyes. Ji Xing suddenly stared at the position by his hand. His deep-rooted vigilance almost became a conditioned reflex, and was suppressed by instinct.
Ji Xing looked closely and found that it was Jiang Xi who was lying on the edge of his bed!
In an instant, Ji Xing had slowed down his breathing, afraid of waking her up.
It is now sunset and the moon is clear, and night is falling.
In the evening, Afu brought Jiang Xi a bowl of medicinal porridge. After drinking it, she couldn't help but feel sleepy and accidentally fell asleep on the edge of Ji Xing's bed.
When Ji Xing woke up, he saw this scene.
Her hair was scattered on the quilt beside the bed, only a few inches away from Ji Xing's fingertips.
Just raise your hand, Ji Xing can touch the cold and soft hair.
Ji Xing's breathing became lighter.
He found that when he consciously controlled his breathing, his body obediently obediently obediently. Not only did his breath slow down, but his blood slowed down. His whole body was like a stone without breath. If he used this method to hide himself when he was sneaking in the dark, no one could discover his existence.
Ji Xing could never do this before. This time he was in a coma, and there seemed to be some changes in his body, but the change reached a critical value and it took an opportunity to completely explode.
But Ji Xing didn't care. He just looked at Jiang Xiru's waterfall's winding ink hair, his fingertips trembled slightly - in the end, he still didn't step out of that short distance.
It seemed that for him, it was not a small inch, but a distance between mountains and seas.
"Um."
Jiang Xi was sleeping and let out a slight hum, but Ji Xing was shocked.
He quickly put his hands away, and respectfully waited for Jiang Xi to wake up-
"Well, why are you asleep?" Jiang Xi rubbed her drowsy temples and crawled up, "Ji Xing is still... huh? Ji Xing! Are you awake?"
Sleeping away the sleepiness, replaced by a full of surprises!
"Is Jiulang okay?" Ji Xing turned over and changed to kneeling down on one knee to Jiang Xi, and said guiltily, "It was Ji Xing who was incompetent and actually fell into the other party's plan, causing Jiulang, you to fall into danger!"
"What did you say...Puff." Jiang Xi suppressed his smile and reached out to pull Ji Xing, "Okay, don't kneel like this, it's really funny."
Ji Xing obediently was pulled up by her, but he tilted his head blankly.
A few sleeping hairs stood up from Ji Xing's head, and then cooperated with his confused but unconscious expression...
"Puff haha." Jiang Xi couldn't help it and burst into laughter.
Ji Xing didn't understand the meaning, but just saw Jiulang laughing happily, so he bent his lips.
Jiang Xi smiled even harder.
Ji Xing rubbed his head and looked helplessly at Lou Chen who appeared at the door, which was clearly attracted by Jiang Xi's laughter.
Lou Chen was also surprised by Ji Xing's awakening. She stepped forward to help him check his body and found that Ji Xing's body was so healthy that he could now beat a cow to death!
After listening to Lou Chen's metaphor, Ji Xing thought carefully: "One punch can't work, two punches can."
Lou Chen's shoulders trembled.
Jiang Xi laughed directly on Lou Chen, and tears were almost coming out.
No matter how stupid Ji Xing was, he knew that these two people were laughing at him. Although he didn’t know what they were laughing at, it was always right not to speak!
A sound from the storm of the wind fell quietly in the yard.
Jiang Xi and Ji Xing looked out the door almost at the same time.
"Someone!" Ji Xing was about to turn over immediately.
"Don't, it's probably Song Xu who is back." Lou Chen went over and opened the door, and indeed saw Song Xu wearing night clothes pulling his mask down.
"I'm so tired, pour me a cup of tea!" Song Xu walked in a whirrless manner, looked up and saw that it was Lou Chen, and laughed dryly, "I'd better pour it myself."
"I'll do it." Lou Chen turned into the house and poured Song Xu a cup of hot tea for the first time.
Song Xu was simply flattered. He was not right to drink with a teacup, nor was he not right to drink without a drink.
When he looked at his eyes, he almost stared through the teacup, and he didn't know how to talk about the main things.
Jiang Xi had no choice but to cough twice.
"Ah?" Song Xu looked up blankly and saw Ji Xing sitting on the bed. "Ah, Ji Xing is awake? Is this great? What happened before, you!"
"Uncle, can you tell me the truth?"
"Just business? By the way, I'm here to the Nanning Marquis Mansion." Song Xu slapped his forehead, "I've been to Princess Qingle!"
"How? Is there any whereabouts?"
Song Xu spread his hands: "Get nothing."
"How could this happen?" Jiang Xi frowned.
"Wait, listen to me, this matter is not that simple!" Song Xu took a deep breath, "Didn't we investigate the Nanning Marquis Mansion before? I also know the layout structure of the Marquis Mansion. When I first entered, the journey was quite smooth, but when I came to the eldest princess, I discovered something strange!"
"What strange thing?"
"There is an old lady next to Princess Qingle, who is actually a top-notch master!"
Song Xu's words surprised Jiang Xi and Lou Chen.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course! That old lady looked ordinary, but she had definitely reached the realm of returning to nature! If it weren't for me, Song Xu, who had personally taken action today, you, Jiang Xi, would have definitely been discovered by her!" Song Xu did not forget to boast about it.
Jiang Xi was too lazy to pay attention to him, and only thought this was very strange.
"When we investigated the Nanning Marquis Mansion, we also paid special attention to this Qingle Princess. Apart from his honorable identity and domineering personality, this princess has nothing special about it. Why is there such a master around her?"
"It's not an extra. The old lady has followed her from the old man next to Princess Qingle for at least thirty years. The previous investigation results also include this old lady, but there is no single word that this old lady is actually a master. And I have investigated her internal strength tonight, at least for more than a hundred years!"
Song Xu was still scared when he mentioned the old nanny.
A master of internal strength for a hundred years is also among the top masters in the world!
Who would have thought that an inconspicuous old man next to Princess Qingle would have such deep internal strength?
