I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

The Five Elements Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, and many soil veins extend out to form some hills and mounds.

Influenced by the Five Elements Mountain Vein, these hills are stacked one upon another and the terrain is winding. Even the local mountain people can get lost if they are not careful.

When they saw this kind of terrain, they knew they were about to enter the Five Elements Mountain and had to return quickly.

On the northern edge of the mountain range, on a hill like this, there is a dilapidated temple.

The dilapidated temple is really a dilapidated temple.

The roof tiles are broken, letting in light and rain; the earthen walls are porous, letting in cold winds.

There is only a sesame-sized spot in the corner that can shelter from the rain and wind, but no one comes to this small piece of land in the deep mountains.

The collapsed Buddha statue was covered with cobwebs and dust, and it was obvious that no one had been there for many years.

A strong wind suddenly came.

All the cobwebs, dust, animal feces and other filth in the room were blown away, and the dull and rotten air became a little fresher.

The small temple has been completely renovated, at least the ground is clean and ok for people to enter.

boom.

Xie Yuan carried Mu Chaoyun into the ruined temple, landed heavily on the ground, and stumbled so hard that he stepped into a hole in the ground.

He could no longer control his body. He carefully and staggered to put Mu Chaoyun down, then sat down, breathing heavily.

After running for thousands of miles, Xie Yuan finally felt safer when he reached the edge of the Five Elements Mountains.

However, despite his injuries and emptiness, Mu Chaoyun, who was seriously wounded, had to seal his blood vessels and practice the Tianyin Technique without stopping.

For Xie Yuan, who was also seriously injured, this was simply the end of his life.

He silently felt the two remaining demon core spiritual powers in his body that he was already unable to control, pursed his lips, and then looked at Mu Chaoyun calmly, calling softly:
"Miss Mu, Miss Mu?"

Mu Chaoyun slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and asked:

"Where are we now?"

Her voice was still weak. She had run thousands of miles without rest and her injuries were still lingering.

"It's an abandoned mountain temple on the edge of the Five Elements Mountains. No one should be able to find it here, so we can rest for a while. Miss Mu, how is your injury?"

Xie Yuan asked with some concern.

Mu Chaoyun was silent for a while, then said softly:

"Can't die."

Xie Yuan did not feel relaxed, because the Fengshen Runfu Pill was saving Mu Chaoyun's life.

However, Mu Chaoyun had first suffered a severe backlash from the formation, and was made worse by the attack on the formation by the owner of Qiufeng Tower. In the end, he had to take force to set up a formation to stop the owner of Qiufeng Tower.

Under the triple pressure, the Fengshen Runfu Dan can save Mu Chaoyun's life, but that's all.

He held Mu Chaoyun's wrist and frowned tightly.

Mu Chaoyun's injuries were mainly internal. His aura at this moment was not even as good as that of an ordinary person, and his meridians were in a mess.

If I can't get proper treatment soon, it's not just a matter of whether my cultivation can be restored, but I'm afraid I'll be a cripple for the rest of my life...

Xie Yuan took out all the bottles and jars he had collected and his own elixirs, and searched through them, but he couldn't find anything suitable for this situation.

Fengshen Runfu Dan is already the most advanced elixir for saving lives and protecting internal organs. If it is useless for Mu Chaoyun's injuries, nothing else will be useful.

"This is the Snow Jade Linglong Pill."

Mu Chaoyun suddenly spoke.

Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment, then picked up the pill:
"This will not help your injury..."

"You can use this to treat internal and external injuries. It's just right for you right now."

Mu Chaoyun said softly.

Xie Yuan paused, raised his eyebrows and said:
"I'm not in the way! The most urgent thing is..."

"How is the demon core now?"

Mu Chaoyun interrupted him again.

Although the voice was weak, the tone was firm and unquestionable, making it impossible for Xie Yuan to ignore it.

Xie Yuan was silent for a moment, then he tilted his head back and swallowed the Snow Jade Linglong Pill. He felt a surge of icy medicinal power flowing into his dantian, and then he was directly sucked into the vortex under the attack of two raging demon core spiritual powers and disappeared into thin air.

He nodded:
"It is somewhat useful. Now, let's see what to do with your injury..."

Xie Yuan began to pick out the pills again, but he had no clue.

Not to mention the few medicines on hand, even if he was in Xie's medicine storehouse, he probably wouldn't know what to do.

Even if warriors have practiced for a long time and are familiar with medicine, this situation may require a world-famous doctor to treat it, or even...

Xie Yuan shook his head subconsciously.

Mu Chaoyun just looked at him, gently rubbed the wall for support, and then tilted his head to lean on his shoulder.

"It's okay. At most, I can't recover. You can just take care of me. You've served me tea and water before."

Although she wasn't speaking incoherently like she did at the beginning, she still felt tired after talking for a long time, and secretly sighed at how miserable she was.

However, the shoulder she was resting her head on gave her a lot of strength, making her feel a little relieved even in her current situation.

Xie Yuan gritted his teeth, but suddenly recalled the past, took a breath, and sighed:
"It really is like when we were chased by Lu Lao San and fled for our lives. At that time, the injuries of the two of us combined were not as serious as one. I still remember that Lu Lao San seemed to have been chasing us until we were almost at the foot of Yunshan Mountain. You then figured out that our only way to survive was to go up Yunshan Mountain, and that's when the following events happened... Haha, Lu Lao San was really patient. I wonder if he regrets not chasing us for a while now that he's at the foot of Yunshan Mountain?"

Mu Chaoyun listened to him talking about the past and also showed a look of nostalgia, but soon showed fatigue:

"Hmm...Xie Yuan...I'll take a nap for a while."

Xie Yuan was startled and immediately held her wrist. He found that although her pulse was weak, it was still firm despite the cold touch.

It seems that the Fengshen Runfu Pill is still useful. He couldn't help but said in a hoarse voice:

"Go to sleep, I'm watching."

Mu Chaoyun had buried his head in his legs and fell asleep with his head tilted to one side.

When Xie Yuan saw that she had fallen asleep, his calm expression suddenly changed to one of anxiety, confusion and worry.

Mu Chaoyun is at the level of Heaven and Earth Double Bridge...

He looked over and over at the bottles and jars, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't help but throw a few porcelain bottles out, and they embedded deeply into the rocks and trees outside.

"Useless things!"

Xie Yuan cursed in his heart.

He gritted his teeth, listened to Mu Chaoyun's heavy and chaotic breathing, frowned, and sorted out his thoughts:

"The pills are useless. If I want to help Miss Mu, I can only use my inner energy. But..."

He didn't need to feel it to know that his body was also dry.

The golden river dried up for the first time.

If Xie Yuan hadn't been so successful in body building, he wouldn't have been able to get here.

It would be fine if the meridians were dried up, but the two external spiritual powers in the Dantian were entangled like a ball of wool, and were even conflicting with each other.

When Xie Yuan had his own spiritual power, these external spiritual powers that were directly taken into his body were suppressed, refined by the spiritual fire, and obeyed the orders.

However, Xie Yuan overdrawn himself, his meridians dried up, and he had no capital left. These two spiritual powers, which were still huge even though he had used a lot of them, suddenly became stronger and unruly.

Most people wouldn't dare to eat something as precious as natural treasures directly. Xie Yuan had to do so because he had experience but no other options, and now he suffered the backlash.

The external spiritual power raged in his dantian, crushing the little spiritual power he had just recovered, and the same thing happened when he took the pills.

Although he was not as weak as Mu Chaoyun, the situation inside his body was equally not optimistic.

Xie Yuan closed his eyes unwillingly and adjusted his breathing, trying to subdue the two spiritual powers.

Half an hour later.

His dantian swelled, and an indescribable pain came. Xie Yuan couldn't help but groan. He opened his eyes and couldn't help but cursed for the first time in a long time:
"Grass!"

A skilled cook cannot cook without rice. There is a knot in his Dantian now. If he wants to untie it, he needs external force.

However, the only external force at the moment, Mu Chaoyun, was completely powerless. If she wanted to recover some strength, she could only ask Xie Yuan to help her;

However, if Xie Yuan wants to help her, she needs to help him recover a little first...

The two of them formed a vicious circle.

"What’s wrong with you?"

A soft voice came, and Mu Chaoyun was awakened by the vibration in Xie Yuan's lower abdomen.

Xie Yuanlian said apologetically:

"It's okay, I just feel a little itchy from sitting here. You can continue to rest..."

"You... took the Snow Jade Linglong Pill and it didn't work? How did you become like this?"

Mu Chaoyun let out a low cry.

She could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Xie Yuan, because at this moment Xie Yuan's face showed gold and purple colors, corresponding to the power of the two demon cores.

The forced refining in Dantian just now made the situation worse.

Now both of them are in a very serious condition.

Perhaps it would be better to heal the wound immediately after the battle, but there might be no difference in essence. Mu Chaoyun's injury was so fatal, and Xie Yuan was overdrawn and exhausted on the spot. Whether he relied on perseverance to get to this point or not, his Dantian was a dead end.

The most important thing is that such a big noise can easily attract experts.

It is hard to say what the unknown master would think when he saw the two weak people covered with precious treasures.

Mu Chaoyun's face was full of worry:
"So you are so seriously injured now? Blame me, I took it for granted..."

"It's okay. I can recover slowly by myself. You should get enough energy and have a good rest first."

Xie Yuan comforted.

Outside the temple, the moon was full on the mountain, and its glow shone through the hole in the roof, illuminating the small temple with a silvery white glow.

Mu Chaoyun was somewhat worried, but with Xie Yuan's constant gentle comfort and caress, she gradually began to look tired again, and soon she could no longer hold on and fell into a deep sleep.

Xie Yuan's face was solemn. After carefully confirming that Mu Chaoyun, who was lying on his legs, was still breathing, he leaned back against the earth wall with a tired look.

He was also very sleepy.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while, then think of a solution..."

As Xie Yuan thought about this, he tilted his head and fell asleep. He couldn't regulate his breathing, so he could only sleep to replenish his energy.

The moon slowly rose, and the silver beam of light slowly moved inside the temple, shining on Mu Chaoyun.

She shivered slightly, as if the moonlight was too cold, or the night wind was too chilly. She couldn't help but shrink, and then opened her eyes slightly.

"Thanks……"

Mu Chaoyun wanted to call Xie Yuan, but when he saw that he had fallen into a deep sleep, he stopped talking in time.

She tilted her head back on Xie Yuan's legs, quietly looking at his ugly face, and saw that he had a frown on his face even in his sleep, as if he was worried or in pain.

She could faintly feel that Xie Yuan's dantian area in his lower abdomen was still surging. It must be that the two spiritual powers were still fighting, preventing Xie Yuan from sleeping.

This spiritual power can't be improved at all.

Mu Chaoyun frowned slightly, slowly got up from Xie Yuan's legs, moved his body away with difficulty and slowly, and then stood up tremblingly.

She stood in the moonlight, looking at Xie Yuan quietly, and sighed softly:
"If I hadn't noticed it, I'm afraid this idiot would have kept it a secret."

Looking at Xie Yuan with a reproachful yet gentle gaze, Mu Chaoyun was stunned for a moment and could not help but think silently:
“Maybe this is the only way.”

She hesitated for a moment, looked at Xie Yuan's still furrowed brows, and made up her mind.

"Xie Yuan."

Mu Chaoyun called out.

Xie Yuan didn't wake up until Mu Chaoyun called him the second time, which showed how tired he was.

"Miss Mu, why are you up?"

Xie Yuan was a little surprised and was about to stand up, but he saw Mu Chaoyun raising his hand to stop him.

She slowly raised her hand and pulled gently.

rustling.

The blood-stained long skirt fell to the ground.

Xie Yuan's eyes widened violently, and Mu Chaoyun, who was only wearing small clothes, was reflected in his eyes.

Her legs are snow-white, her arms are slender, and her waist is slender enough to be held in one hand.

Large areas of skin are exposed, with only key parts covered by underwear, making her look even more seductive.

Mu Chaoyun's hand moved slowly again, his movements were a little hesitant and a little embarrassed.

But she bit her lip slightly and still pulled the thin rope at the back of her neck.

As the small piece of clothing fell to the ground, Xie Yuan's pupils shrank suddenly.

White and tender feet, snow-white long legs, slender hands shyly crossed, the beautiful curve tightened at the waist, and then above... the hair that Mu Chaoyun had pushed in front of her body covered the peak.

Mu Chaoyun's tall and slender body was naked, standing in the hazy moonlight, like a perfect sculpture with white and lustrous complexion and amazing proportions.

Her cheeks were rosy, she bit her lips lightly, and spoke slowly:
"Xie Yuan, the temple is drafty and I feel a little cold."

Taking off clothes when it's cold? Of course, Xie Yuan wasn't so dumbfounded. Moreover, in this situation, he couldn't talk about clothes at all.

Xie Yuan rolled his throat and said in a hoarse voice:
"Miss Mu, is this...appropriate?"

Mu Chaoyun bit her lips tightly:
"... It's already like this, do you want to embarrass me to death?"

She was a little shy and anxious. As an innocent woman, she had already taken the initiative enough.

Does she have to say that when she was lurking in the Paradise Palace in Tianwaitian, she learned some good things about harmonizing yin and yang and solving difficult situations, so that you can come up to me quickly?
"No, this, here, you..."

Xie Yuan stuttered in his explanation.

He originally wanted to ask if Mu Chaoyun had been wronged, but his tongue was already a little tied.

In his two lifetimes, he had never experienced such a scene, let alone seen such a beauty who could be so open and honest with him.

In his eyes, Mu Chaoyun, bathed in silver light, was as beautiful as the moon goddess.

"That's all. You bastard..."

Mu Chaoyun bit her lip lightly.

I can't count on him anymore. Who told me that I am a few years older than him and I have always been his master? He even has to teach me this...

She took a deep breath, not knowing where she got the strength from, and simply took two steps closer, looking down at Xie Yuan.

Xie Yuan raised his head and felt even more suffocated.

This angle...

Mu Chaoyun stretched out his hand and covered his eyes.

Then she bent her knees and sat down.

She threw herself into Xie Yuan's arms and whispered softly in his ear:
"hold me."

Xie Yuan's eyes were filled with darkness, and his chest was filled with soft jade.

He felt a bang in his abdomen that suddenly ignited, hotter than the red lotus fire.

In the corner of the small temple, the two of them were bathed in the moonlight, and the temperature gradually rose. (End of this chapter)
