Chapter 126 The Loyal Guardian of Bai Yueguang Jin 1
"Goddess, may our Shen family enjoy good fortune and health, and be safe and secure for the rest of our lives."
After bowing three times, the elegant lady in brocade clothes clasped her hands together and knelt devoutly on the cushion.
Shi Qing, who was standing beside her, was wearing a light blue dress. She also clasped her hands together and closed her eyes in prayer.
On the lotus throne, a huge golden Buddha statue leans slightly, looking down at all living beings with a kind smile and a compassionate face.
After a while, Shi Qing stood up, but his vision suddenly went dark, his feet felt weak, and he almost collapsed.
"Miss."
A maid with double buns on her hair hurriedly supported her, her face full of worry.
The woman looked over, worry showing on her well-kept face, "Qingqing is feeling unwell again?"
Shi Qing placed her slender hands between her brows, gently closed her eyes, and said in a gentle and soft voice: "Mother, my daughter is fine."
Shen frowned and said to the maid next to her, "Qiuyue, help the young lady back to the wing room to rest."
Next, Shen will listen to the monks teach Buddhism.
"My daughter will take her leave first."
Shi Qing bowed, got Shen's nod, and then helped Qiuyue leave.
The feeling just now was not very strange, as if my entire soul was being torn away.
She called the system in her mind: [Tangyuan, was there any problem in the previous world?]
The system is proficient in checking the subsequent plot: [It goes back to normal. After you die, the hero is filled with remorse and tries to find various ways to revive you, but fails.]
Shi Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
[That’s good. I’m really afraid that I’ll accidentally collapse the world again. By then, I won’t have enough points to pay it back.]
The light on the system flickered, but it said nothing.
This time it is an imaginary world in ancient times called Chen Kingdom, where aristocratic families are greedy for pleasure, the court is incompetent, there are wars on the border, taxation is severe, and people live in hardship.
The original owner was the second daughter of the prime minister of the current dynasty. She had an older brother from the same mother, and her biological mother was the wife of the first wife.
The hero, Xue Zhao, grew from a penniless guard to a general who pacified the war on the border, but he also lost the love of his heart forever.
This time, Shi Qing traveled through time and space nearly two months earlier.
After learning about the world's plot, he suddenly fell seriously ill shortly after taking action.
I have been having nightmares for more than a month, and I always feel dizzy for no apparent reason, sometimes I would be in a coma for a whole day.
The Shen family invited doctors from all over the place to see him, but to no avail. There was nothing wrong with his health.
Later, Shen invited a master to perform a ritual, and the situation improved slightly.
The master said that she had offended something, so Shen took her to Jinyun Temple to pray for blessings shortly after she recovered from her illness.
Prayer can dispel those evil spirits with the help of Buddhist spirit.
For more than a month, Shi Qing had indeed been having nightmares filled with bizarre scenes.
After waking up, I don't remember anything.
When I asked the system, it said it was because the male protagonist in the previous world summoned the soul.
I don’t know what method Wu Ji used, but he actually influenced her to some extent.
But the system told her not to worry.
In addition, since he had been almost well recently, Shi Qing felt relieved.
Back in the wing room, the pear wood coffee table is placed in the middle, with fine wood texture. There is a calligraphy hanging on the left wall, and a screen is set on the right, behind which is the bed. The whole room has an ancient charm and fragrance, with the quietness and elegant Zen fragrance that is unique to temples.
And in this elegance, there was a faint smell of blood.
Shi Qing glanced around and said calmly, "Qiuyue, open the window."
Qiuyue said nothing and quietly pushed open the long window.
A breeze blew in, but the strange smell did not dissipate.
Shi Qing looked at the screen. It was dark in color and he couldn't make out anything from it.
She approached calmly step by step, and just as she got behind the screen, a cold light flashed.
Then, a dark shadow waved his hand and attacked.
Shi Qing reflexively dodged sideways and quickly raised his elbow to hit the man's wrist bone.
With a clang, a bloody dagger fell to the ground.
The black shadow covered his hands and stared at Shi Qing with wolf-like eyes.
Hearing the sound, Qiuyue hurried over.
"Miss, are you okay?"
When he saw the bloody dagger on the ground and the strange man who suddenly appeared, he was shocked.
"Someone come quickly——"
Shi Qing quickly covered her mouth and shook her head.
Qiuyue was puzzled, "Miss?"
Shi Qing smiled at her, "Don't alarm mother."
The man was wearing cheap, ordinary black clothes, with several obvious cuts on his body from sharp weapons, and the overflowing blood had dyed the surrounding clothes dark red.
He seemed extremely weak, with one hand leaning on the screen and the other covering his stomach. His dark, narrow eyes were like those of a wolf in the dark night. He hunched his waist and raised his head, staring at them fiercely.
Qiuyue forced herself to remain calm, stood in front of Shi Qing, and stared at the man with a bad look.
Shi Qing walked out from behind her and said calmly, "You don't have to be afraid. We won't hurt you."
Not only him, but even Qiuyue next to him was stunned.
Is the young lady sick and confused? They are the ones who should be worried about getting hurt.
The man remained silent.
Shi Qing picked up the dagger on the ground and took half a step forward. The man took a step back vigilantly.
She smiled gently, "Although I don't know why you appear here, I believe you have no ill intentions."
She turned to the frightened Qiuyue and said, "Qiuyue, go get some medicine to stop the bleeding, and remember not to alarm others."
Qiuyue said worriedly: "Miss, how can you trust him? What if he hurts you?"
Shi Qing slowly spun the dagger and smiled gently, "Relax, he can't hurt me."
Shi Qing insisted again and again, so Qiuyue had to go out.
Shi Qing glanced at the pale-faced man calmly and said, "I see you're seriously injured. Sit down first. I'll apply medicine when Qiuyue comes back."
Faced with Shi Qing's unusual reaction, the man was also confused, but he couldn't leave for a while.
I had no choice but to sit on the bed, holding my stomach in pain.
Shi Qing stood beside him and asked with concern: "Your stomach is also injured?"
The man's sharp and handsome face darkened for a moment and he did not answer.
Shi Qing was not embarrassed at all, she just looked at him quietly.
Soon, Qiuyue hurriedly pushed the door open and walked over with a pile of hemostatic gauze and other things.
Shi Qing took it from her and pushed it next to the man.
"When you went to get the medicine, did Doctor Zhang have any doubts?"
Because Shi Qing was ill, he brought a doctor with him to the temple to pray.
Qiuyue said confidently: "Don't worry, Miss. Doctor Zhang did ask me. But I said that Miss accidentally scratched herself and bled, so he believed it."
Shi Qing nodded and looked at the man again: "If you don't take medicine, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave here."
The man looked at her with a deep and complicated expression. He picked up the medicine bottle with his bony fingers and spoke hesitantly:
"Don't look at me."
A trace of discomfort appeared on his resolute face, and his voice was dry and hoarse.
Shi Qing understood, nodded, and walked to the front with Qiuyue.
There was a rustling sound behind the screen, and soon the man came out after applying the medicine.
He clasped his fists towards Shi Qing expressionlessly, his voice sounding hoarse as if it had been ground through sand.
He said, "My name is Xue Zhao. Thank you for saving my life, Miss."
