Chapter 120: Chapter 120 Descendants of Immortals
Bei Qingsi lay on the blanket, gently stroking the other blanket Zhongshan had covered her with, a softness flickering in her eyes. However, she didn't get up, instead lying there, constantly recalling that faint warmth, as if engaged in a battle between heaven and man.
By evening, Bei Qingsi noticed that Zhongshan hadn't returned to the stone cave to rest. It was only around midnight when he entered the cave to check if Bei Qingsi was alright before immediately going out to sit outside and cultivate.
Sensing from outside, Bei Qingsi licked the ginseng slice in her mouth, her eyes filled with a sense of gratitude, and a rare smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Bei Qingsi knew that Zhongshan wasn't avoiding suspicion. After all, Zhongshan had already seen and touched her naked body. Would he still care about such formalities? Zhongshan didn't enter the cave to cultivate because he was afraid of disturbing her during his practice. The sounds during practice and after finishing might disturb her, and the surging true essence during breakthroughs might harm Bei Qingsi.
Feeling this faint warmth, Bei Qingsi had the thought of just sleeping like this forever. However, this was obviously impractical. After lying for a long time, Bei Qingsi gently got up in the middle of the night.
After getting up, Bei Qingsi looked at the clothes Zhongshan had put on her, blushed slightly, and changed into her own clothes, from inside to outside, putting on clean clothes again.
Carefully folding Zhongshan's clothes, which had accompanied her for a month, Bei Qingsi's eyes flickered with a hint of reluctance. After looking at them for a while, she finally bit her lip, turned her hand, and stored the clothes in her storage bracelet.
Then Bei Qingsi closed her eyes and meditated for a while. There were plenty of spirit stones around her, but Bei Qingsi didn't care why Zhongshan had so many spirit stones because none of it mattered.
When it was dawn, Zhongshan woke up from his meditation, went to the small lake to wash his face with clear water, put the fish cleaned last night into the pot, added seasoning, and began cooking over a small fire, preparing to enter the cave afterwards.
As Zhongshan turned around, he found that Bei Qingsi was already standing at the entrance of the cave.
"Qingsi, you're awake?" Zhongshan's eyes flashed with surprise and joy.
"Yeah," Bei Qingsi nodded, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes.
"When did you wake up?" Zhongshan immediately asked.
Of course, Zhongshan's question was just out of concern, but to Bei Qingsi's ears, her face turned red. When did she wake up? Could she say it?
"Just woke up. Thank you," Bei Qingsi immediately said.
"Hehe, it's good that you woke up. But that hundred-day drunkenness wasn't exaggerated. You woke up after only a month," Zhongshan shook his head and smiled.
"No, the hundred-day drunkenness wasn't exaggerated. Ordinary people would be drunk for over a hundred days. I woke up early because of the inheritance of bloodline. Why are you okay?" Bei Qingsi asked in confusion.
"Huh? Come here, sit first," Zhongshan immediately pointed to a nearby stone.
Zhongshan's situation was very special, as if it was the Red Phoenix Flame in the Red Phoenix Scripture, but he wasn't very sure, so it wasn't convenient to say it now.
"Okay." Bei Qingsi nodded gently and walked over slowly.
In front of Zhongshan was a big pot for cooking fish, and beside it was a long stone. Bei Qingsi sat on it, and Zhongshan sat naturally beside her, holding a branch in his hand. He stirred the fire under the pot while chatting with Bei Qingsi.
"Bloodline inheritance, do most people have bloodline inheritance? They just haven't activated it?" Zhongshan asked immediately.
Because from Bei Qingsi's bloodline inheritance, Zhongshan saw powerful strength. If everyone had bloodline inheritance, wouldn't it be great? If he could find a way to activate it, wouldn't it be even better?
After all, the red-clothed people they encountered before were too terrifying and well-trained. This was just long-range pursuit. How powerful would the real assassins be? If Bei Qingsi went, wouldn't it be courting death?
As if sensing Zhongshan's concern, Bei Qingsi felt warm in her heart and smiled gently. "Don't worry, you don't need to be concerned. I must go back for revenge as soon as possible. Besides, when the time comes, it won't be just me, there will be..."
She paused halfway through.
"There will be who?" Zhongshan asked in confusion.
Looking at Zhongshan, Bei Qingsi hesitated for a moment, then nodded reluctantly. "Well, then, please be careful," Zhongshan said, sensing Bei Qingsi's dilemma.
Zhongshan knew he couldn't persuade her, so he just sighed softly. However, when Bei Qingsi saw Zhongshan sigh, she felt a pang in her heart. She wanted to tell Zhongshan who else would be going with her, but it seemed like she was bound by some kind of promise not to mention it. She felt a sense of helplessness and guilt.
Watching Zhongshan put away the bowls and chopsticks, Bei Qingsi bit her lip and sighed softly. But as Zhongshan finished tidying up, Bei Qingsi suddenly said, "Should we wait for a while before going out again?"
Looking at Bei Qingsi, Zhongshan nodded. "Those people will definitely be watching us from all directions. Let's wait for at least a hundred days, no, let's wait two hundred days. We'll wait until they lose patience before we leave."
Seeing Zhongshan's determination, a glint of brightness flashed in Bei Qingsi's eyes as she nodded.
"Oh, by the way, I found something for you these days. It's just right for you to try," Zhongshan suddenly said.
"What is it?" Bei Qingsi asked, puzzled.
Zhongshan smiled faintly. "Come, let's go to the lakeside. I'll do it, and you watch. Remember every step I take."
"Huh?" Bei Qingsi was slightly puzzled but still got up and followed Zhongshan all the way to the lakeside.
After asking Bei Qingsi to sit down, Zhongshan gently took out some plants and some peculiar natural materials. These materials didn't have much spiritual power, and they were diverse and chaotic. Bei Qingsi didn't know what Zhongshan was going to do with these materials.
"Take a good look at these materials. Although they seem ordinary, they can be very effective at times. Do you recognize these plants?" Zhongshan asked Bei Qingsi.
Bei Qingsi looked at them and nodded. "I know most of them. The rest I haven't seen before, but I've seen similar ones."
"Good," Zhongshan nodded with a smile.
"Watch carefully," Zhongshan said.
Then, Zhongshan squeezed out some juice from the plants, adjusted them with different materials, and mixed them slowly, blending them into a slightly viscous black liquid.
Furrowing her brows at the bowl of black liquid, Bei Qingsi couldn't understand what Zhongshan was doing.
At this moment, Zhongshan took out a thin sheet like a bedsheet and walked slowly to Bei Qingsi. "Don't move," Zhongshan said, wrapping Bei Qingsi with the sheet and tying a knot around her neck, enveloping her entire body except for her head.
Bei Qingsi didn't move, but she was very puzzled about what Zhongshan was doing.
"What's this for?" Bei Qingsi asked softly.
With a slight smile, Zhongshan took out several different brushes. "I'm going to teach you how to dye your hair."
