Stars fall and locust trees grow

Chapter 108 In fact, Wei Li is Qi Luoxing.

Li Chi chose to give up completely, with an expression that looked like he was ready to be slaughtered.

But compared to his relaxation, at this moment, Gu Chuanlin was struggling inside.

The person on the recliner looked thin and frail, like a leaf swaying on a branch in a storm, making people feel pity for him.

The other person's delicate and pretty face was pale as a sickly paleness, with two shy red clouds on her cheeks.

Perhaps because of his physical discomfort, his brows were always unconsciously wrinkled, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Only his lips, as pale as peach, were pouting reluctantly, as if showing his last bit of stubbornness.

Gu Chuanlin suddenly felt his throat tighten and his heart began to beat wildly and uncontrollably.

He took a few deep breaths, forced his eyes away from the other person's body, stood there for a few dozen seconds, then stretched out his arms and gently picked up the person.

The water temperature is just right, neither too hot nor too cold.

As soon as Li Chi slid into the tub, he let out a contented sigh, "Wow! It's so comfortable in there!"

He sniffed, "Even the smell is delicious! So good!"

The warm liquid just covered his shoulders and neck, leaving only his head exposed.

The hot water gently caresses every corner of the body.

As the body temperature gradually rises, the essence of the medicine slowly penetrates into the skin through the open pores, and then seeps into the bones bit by bit, nourishing the cracks that are still healing.

Half an hour later, when Li Chi was carried out by Gu Chuanlin, his whole body was steaming hot and his skin was faintly flushed, just like a flower bud that had just bloomed in early spring, so bright and juicy that it was impossible to take your eyes off him.

A dry towel had already been laid out on the lounge chair.

Gu Chuanlin cleared his throat, tensed his body, and used his luck to dry all the water droplets on Li Chi's skin and hair. He then changed him into clean clothes and tied his hair.

After everything was ready, he held Li Chi firmly in his arms and set out to see Wei Li.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I smelled the fragrance of locust flowers.

Li Chi immediately turned his head, "Gu Chuanlin! Why do I seem to smell the scent of Sophora japonica flowers?!"

"I don't think there are any locust flowers on our Lunyin Island?!"

"There really wasn't such a thing before." A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind the two of them.

Hu Di walked up to Li Chi, fanning himself, smiled, and said, "But now I have it."

"Besides, I dug it from Jiangzhou specially for you."

"Ah ha?!" Li Chi opened his mouth almost into a circle, his eyes full of confusion.

He paused and said, "Could it be the one at the foot of Huafeng Mountain at the end of your 29th Mountain?!"

Hu Di chuckled, "That's right!"

"You're a pervert!" Li Chi raised his voice unconsciously, "Why are you digging it up for no reason?!"

"Hey! I'm not the pervert!" Hu Di raised his eyebrows, "Your little master asked me to dig it up, saying it was a birthday present for you."

"Birthday present?!" Li Chi thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and stared at Gu Chuanlin's chin, "How do you know my birthday?!"

Gu Chuanlin said succinctly: "Xianglin Island's cabinet library, the list of disciples."

"Oh." Li Chi pouted, "We'll talk about the birthday later."

"Take me to see Wei Li first."

Li Chi always thought that Wei Li was just seriously injured like himself, and would be able to recover slowly after resting for a period of time.

However, when he saw the grave standing under the newly planted locust tree, he always felt that fate seemed to be playing a huge joke on him.

"This is impossible..." Li Chi leaned weakly in Gu Chuanlin's arms, the tears on his face almost wet the other's shirt.

"My injuries are obviously more serious than his, why... why am I the only one who survived?!"

Gu Chuanlin gently stroked his head and said in a low voice, "Because he wants to protect you."

"Protect... me?!" Li Chi kept sobbing, "Doesn't that fat guy always say that he will first cheat me of my money and then my sex?!"

"I have no money and no sex, why on earth would he protect me?! What a liar!"

"We...we are obviously not that close, but he still stood in front of me without hesitation. I...I am not worthy of him doing this at all..."

"No! In his heart, you are worthy." Hu Di sighed, "No one is more worthy than you."

"Because you are his only relative left in this world, he just wants you to live well."

"I don't understand." Li Chi raised his head, revealing his red and swollen eyes. "We have only known each other for a few months."

"Little boy, have you always thought that Wei Li is a strange person?!" Hu Di suddenly said.

"Yeah." Li Chi didn't understand, but nodded anyway.

"Suppose that Wei Li is not Wei Li, but a person who has known you for a long time and has a blood relationship with you, then all his behaviors become understandable." Hu Di looked at him and said meaningfully.

Familiar and blood-related...

Li Chi thought carefully about his words for a moment, and suddenly a terrible thought flashed through his mind, making him feel like he was struck by lightning.

However, Guchuan Lin's next words happened to confirm his thoughts.

"In fact, Wei Li is Qi Luoxing."

"How...how is it possible?!" Li Chi found it hard to believe, "If he...if he is Ah Xing, why doesn't he recognize me?!"

"Because he's about to die." Gu Chuanlin lowered his head and looked at him gently. "Practicing the evil art of the Yin-Yang Wheel will cause one's realm to regress and eventually die of blood loss. His soul was severely damaged and he wouldn't have lived much longer. He just took a special pill and has been holding on."

Gu Chuanlin said: "The reason why you were able to be resurrected is because Qi Luoxing used the "Human Puppet" technique recorded on the Yin-Yang Wheel."

"Originally, his body was already in pieces, but in order to save you, he once again used the secret method on the Yin-Yang Wheel in the dense forest, causing his blood to drain faster. This way, there is no way to save him."

"It turns out... all of this was done by Ah Xing..." Li Chi murmured, "How could he be so stupid..."

"After he woke up, he knew he was going to die soon, so he told me and your little master the whole story." Hu Di continued, "We originally wanted to wait for you to wake up and see him one last time before burying him."

"However, Qi Luoxing said that he didn't want you to see his scary and ugly appearance now, so we can only respect his thoughts."

"Little friend, all that Qi Luoxing did was just to keep you alive." Hu Di patted Li Chi's shoulder, "So, don't let him down."

"Live well with his expectations of you."

Li Chi nodded with red eyes, and then asked: "Then, what happened to Ah Xing later?!"

"Let your little master tell you the rest!"
