Chapter 223: Poisoned and Still Laughing
Chu Feng lay on the bed with his eyes closed. The air around him was filled with the rich and mysterious fragrance of the red spider lily.
The fragrance seemed to be able to penetrate dreams and lead his soul to the distant shore.
Wrapped in this fragrance, he gradually fell into a dream, in which he was filled with endless tenderness with his beloved.
Tian Yan Sect.
On the sycamore tree, Mu Qing leaned on Chu Feng's shoulder, and their figures looked particularly warm in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Chu Feng put one hand around Mu Qing's slender waist, and the withered yellow leaves, like witnesses of time, slowly fell on their disciple uniforms.
The dress was white inside and blue outside, simple yet elegant. A snow-white headband tied Chu Feng's long hair up high, and the ponytail swayed gently in the wind.
Chu Feng's face was filled with anticipation and joy. He asked softly, "Qingqing, do you like me?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Qing looked up at Chu Feng. Her bright eyes seemed to be able to speak, but she just stared at him quietly without saying a word.
Seeing this, Chu Feng smiled and said, "Qingqing, if you don't say anything, I will assume that you like me."
Before he finished speaking, Mu Qing suddenly hugged Chu Feng tightly, buried his head in his chest, and whispered softly: "Chu Feng, I have always liked you."
Chu Feng felt an indescribable joy surge in his heart upon hearing this. He almost jumped up and cheered, "Really?"
Mu Qing looked up, a determined light flashing in his eyes. He nodded and said softly, "It's true."
Then, Chu Feng was seen holding Mu Qing and floating down from the branches of the Wutong tree. The two of them stood steadily on the ground covered with fallen leaves.
They looked at each other affectionately, as if the whole world had stopped.
A strong emotion surged in Chu Feng's heart. He could no longer restrain himself. He hugged the person in front of him tightly in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her soft lips.
Mu Qing couldn't help but put her arms around his waist and responded to this long-awaited kiss affectionately.
Chu Feng felt an indescribable itching all over his body, as if millions of ants were crawling on his skin. The feeling made him feel uncomfortable and extremely uncomfortable.
He suddenly opened his eyes, forcibly pulled himself out of that wonderful and haunting dream, and returned to the cold and bitter reality.
He turned his gaze to the window, and what came into view was a scarlet sky, as if stained with blood, giving people a depressing and weird feeling.
And at this moment, he was lying quietly on the bed, everything around him seemed so strange and quiet.
Chu Feng did not hesitate at all and immediately sat up from the bed, crossed his legs, and slightly raised his knees, showing a standard training posture.
He closed his eyes tightly, his expression solemn, and began to circulate the internal energy, trying to force out the unbearable itching and the toxins that had invaded his body.
Recalling the experience of an hour ago, Chu Feng couldn't help but sigh.
At that time, he was in a hot spring with several red spider lilies floating on it. Those red spider lilies were like blooming devil's wings, emitting an alluring magic.
He knew that the red spider lily was highly poisonous, but the toxicity was not fatal. Instead, it could increase the demonic energy in his body.
So, he swallowed a few red spider lilies without hesitation, hoping to improve his cultivation.
However, although this poison is not fatal, the pain it causes is real.
At this moment, Chu Feng was using all his strength to practice his skills, trying to turn this poison into nutrients to enhance his own strength.
……
Ultimately, he failed to successfully transform the toxins that invaded his body into his own demonic energy.
At this moment, his stomach was churning like a violent storm, and a strong feeling of nausea surged into his heart.
He forced his eyes open, only to see that he, who had originally been sitting cross-legged and steady in the middle of the bed, had now become weak and powerless, and could only crawl to the edge of the bed with great effort.
Suddenly, he vomited violently, and a ball of black blood emitting the fragrance of red spider lily gushed out. The black blood seemed to contain endless weirdness and danger.
Immediately afterwards, a stream of bitter water was spit out. It was the juice of the red spider lily, with a pungent bitterness.
Chu Feng held the bed tightly with his left hand, as if he would collapse to the ground if he relaxed even a little.
He raised his right hand weakly and wiped the sweat from his forehead with difficulty. His face was as pale as paper.
Then, he lay on the bed, feeling his limbs go limp, as if he didn't even have the strength to lift a finger.
At this moment, Chu Feng was in great pain, exhausted both physically and mentally. He chose to close his eyes and rest, hoping to find some solace in his sleep.
It seems that as long as I get some sleep, all the pain and troubles will go away with the wind, and a beautiful tomorrow will come.
However, what came to his mind was the dream just now, and the passionate love with Mu Qing made him feel extremely happy again.
In the dream, Mu Qing told him affectionately that she had always liked him.
……
Manzhu walked slowly to the bed with light lotus steps.
She saw Chu Feng's hair was messy, his upper body was naked, and he was only wearing a pair of black trousers, lying casually on the bed.
Her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but frown, and she thought to herself: How can this man be so bold that he dares to take off his clothes and sleep in someone else's territory.
Her gaze fell on the pool of black blood on the ground again. A glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes, and she said to herself: "It seems that he has been detoxified."
Just as she was lost in thought, Chu Feng suddenly laughed out loud.
Manzhu looked up and saw Chu Feng turned over, his eyes still tightly closed, with a satisfied smile on his lips, as if he had just had a beautiful dream.
She did not wake Chu Feng up, but chose to sit beside the bed, watching him quietly and guarding him.
After a while, Chu Feng slowly opened his eyes. In his sleepy state, he mistook Manzhu, who was sitting beside the bed, for Mu Qing, whom he had been thinking about all the time.
He smiled foolishly, with a hint of joy and anticipation in his tone, and said, "You're finally here."
Manzhu looked at his naive appearance and couldn't help but cover her mouth and let out a laugh.
Then, she leaned over and gently tidied Chu Feng's messy hair with her hands, and said teasingly, "Daoyou, why do you always look so embarrassed every time I see you?"
After hearing this, Chu Feng finally woke up completely. He opened his eyes wide and saw the person in front of him clearly.
It turned out to be Manzhu! He actually mistook her for Mu Qing, and he had dreamed of Mu Qing twice today. It seemed like he would dream of her whenever he fell asleep.
Chu Feng watched Manzhu tidying his hair, his eyes unconsciously stole a glance at her jade peaks as she leaned over.
He grabbed Manzhu's hand and said with a look of deep affection, "Beautiful Manzhu, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Manzhu stared at Chu Feng, only to see him holding her wrist. His red eyes seemed to be dancing with blazing flames as he stared intently at the soft part of her body.
She suddenly stood up straight, and Chu Feng tactfully let go of her hand.
Manzhu stood up gracefully from the bed, with a hint of teasing in her eyes: "You really are not afraid of death."
Before she finished speaking, she turned around and said softly, "Hurry up and put on your clothes. I'll take you out for a walk."
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng curled up a wicked smile and quickly put on his clothes. His speed was astonishing.
Manzhu was about to leave when she felt Chu Feng wrap his arms around her waist from behind. His face pressed against her neck, his breath soft and gentle as he said, "I just dreamed of you. You smell wonderful."
As he spoke, he extended his tongue and licked her neck gently.
She exudes a rich and mysterious scent of the red spider lily, which seems to contain some kind of magic that makes people fascinated.
Chu Feng absorbed it greedily, feeling the demonic energy in his body surge and grow.
After a moment, Manzhu sensed that Chu Feng was absorbing her demonic energy.
So she pulled his hand away, turned around, and said with a cold look in her eyes: "I'm poisonous, you'd better not touch me."
Chu Feng raised his eyebrows, not afraid, and said with a wicked smile: "This little bit of poison will not kill me."
Two pairs of bright red eyes, as bright as fire, stared at each other in the air, and there seemed to be sparks flashing between them.
Manzhu looked at him with curiosity in her eyes, and she couldn't help but reach out her hand and gently touch his face.
She asked curiously, "Do you fall in love with every girl you meet?"
Chu Feng suddenly laughed when he heard this, then stared at Manzhu seriously and said, "No matter how romantic a person is, he will settle down when he meets the right person."
