Prelude to the Plot

A quarter of an hour ago.

In the Qingshi Lane of Dongcheng District.

"Mother, mother... my wife, come on, come on, have another drink! I... I can still drink!" At this time, Xu Xian held a pot of wine in his hand, his face flushed unnaturally, his clothes were disheveled, he spoke unsteadily, and he stumbled when he walked.

In his feeling, the whole world seemed to be spinning with his swaying.

As for Bai Suzhen, she sat on a stone table, supporting her head with her right hand, looking at the handsome man in front of her with a sweet face, a thousand years at a glance, and hundreds of years again at another glance.

Although time has passed, the world has changed, and the world has long been different.

But that person seems to be back again, really back, not two similar flowers, but the same flower.

In the eyes of the lover, the beauty of Xu Xian is in the eyes of Bai Suzhen. Xu Xian's weak scholar appearance is not only not a minus point, but a plus point.

"Husband, you are drunk."

"Wife, I, I... I am not drunk."

"You are drunk."

"I am not drunk."

"..."

Bai Suzhen looked at Xu Xian, who had a childish temper, and chuckled helplessly. At this moment, she looked at Xu Xian, who had a very poor alcohol tolerance, and not only did she not have any annoyance, but her eyes were full of doting.

Xu Xian, who usually did not drink a drop of alcohol, got drunk tonight because she did it on purpose, and it was definitely not Xu Xian's intention.

Of course, this was not just because Bai Suzhen wanted to satisfy herself by looking at Xu Xian's drunken appearance, which was a low-level bad taste.

It was because men could not not drink. They could not drink, but they could not not drink, especially since the rest of their lives were still long, and Bai Suzhen was not 100% sure that she could protect Xu Xian.

Moreover, the man she wanted was not a doctor who could only treat patients and save lives, but a man who could stand tall and shoulder heavy responsibilities.

Therefore, she did not dote on Xu Xian too much. It was better to make a fool of herself now than to make a fool of herself in front of outsiders later.

Bai Suzhen's act of getting Xu Xian drunk today was also a sudden idea, because she remembered her previous...previous life, to be precise.

It should be Xu Xian's previous...previous life -

Xu Xuan!

"It's almost enough fun, it's time to sleep." Bai Suzhen supported her head and whispered softly while watching Xu Xian staggering like a toddler.

She wanted to cast a spell to wake Xu Xian up

However.

"Boom!"

Bai Suzhen's magic power, which had just been activated, was like touching some unknown switch. The seeds of Buddhism in her body began to work and rushed around in her body.

Her body began to tremble violently, and the rosy color on her face faded rapidly.

"This, this is..." Bai Suzhen felt the Buddha's light expanding wildly in her body, her eyes flashed wildly, her white eyebrows were covered with fine beads of sweat, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

She didn't understand when Fahai made his move.

"Wine, my lady, another glass... burp--"

Bai Suzhen was startled when she heard the intermittent words in her ears, and suddenly a sound like a huge bell rang in her mind.

She understood, it was wine!

It was the realgar wine she drank on the high platform before, and it was drugged!

With her thoughts flowing rapidly, Bai Suzhen's mind was pure at the moment, and the doubts in her heart were quickly swept away. She understood, she had completely figured it out.

The wine containing realgar, realgar was just a sleight of hand, used to confuse people, the real killer move was the Buddha's light hidden in the wine.

However, what Bai Suzhen didn't understand now was, was that bald donkey crazy?

In Lin'an City, there are at least tens of thousands of civilians, not to mention hundreds of thousands. In the absence of knowing who is the snake demon, the wine must be distributed randomly.

In the face of such a large amount of wine, planting the Buddha's light seeds, even those bald donkeys who have reached the level of land immortals will have to pay the price of great damage to their vitality and lose hundreds of years of cultivation.

Is it worth it?

Bai Suzhen really couldn't figure out what the bald donkey's purpose was? Although she was hiding in Lin'an City, she had never hurt anyone!

Sometimes, even for the diseases that Xu Xian couldn't solve, she would cast a little spell and do her part.

Some time ago, a plague suddenly broke out in Lin'an City. It was also her who consumed her vitality in time and made a large amount of antidote, which prevented the plague from spreading and causing great suffering to the people.

For this kind of behavior, this kind of action, Bai Suzhen thought that although she couldn't be called a great good person, she would definitely not be that kind of extremely evil person, right?

If not, then what was the bald donkey for?

"Mother... Madam, what's wrong with you?" Xu Xian was about to raise the wine pot in his hand to continue drinking in a daze, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of Bai Suzhen, who was trembling all over and covered in cold sweat.

Even after a lot of sweat was soaked out, the sweat flowed down like a stream, tightly adhering Bai Suzhen's white clothes to her delicate jade-like skin, and it was looming between the clothes and the skin.

However, at this moment, Xu Xian had no time to appreciate this beautiful scenery, and he became much more sober in an instant.

"Go... axis..." Bai Suzhen's eyes contracted violently, her pupils seemed to break out of their sockets, and large beads of sweat dripped down like raindrops, highlighting the extreme pain.

The jade hands were clenched, and the veins were bulging out like horned dragons, as if they had been subjected to great torture. His fingers dug into the edge of the stone table, and his nails carved deep marks on the stone surface.

pain!

This pain is simply unforgettable!

It was as if there were invisible giant pincers, ruthlessly tearing at her nails, and each one seemed to be pulled out alive.

Immediately afterwards, there seemed to be a hundred sharp steel needles, mercilessly piercing the exposed fingertips and penetrating into the bone marrow.

What's even more cruel is that afterwards, saline like ice blades was poured fiercely on the bloody wound. Every drop was like burning oil cooking, intensifying the indescribable pain.

This severe pain has exceeded the limit that ordinary people can bear. Xu Xian on the side saw his heart burning and felt the same.

Especially after seeing Bai Suzhen's miserable look.

"No! I won't leave!" At this moment, although Xu Xian's body was still shaking, as if he had completely sobered up, he stumbled and ran towards Bai Suzhen quickly.

Bang!

Under the influence of a large amount of alcohol, even though his consciousness was clear, his body was still in a dazed state. Xu Xian was unsteady and his knees directly hit the stone table.

The force is great and the sound is loud.

Bai Suzhen, who was drowning in pain, regained a glimmer of consciousness. When she saw the blood flowing out of Xu Xian's legs, her vertical pupils suddenly turned red and tears were gathering.

"Ah!!!" Bai Suzhen looked at everything in front of her and roared in pain. She hated it, and the overflowing feeling for the old bald donkey in her heart instantly overflowed, directly covering the pain in her body.

She didn't understand why, why was all this happening?

It was like this hundreds of years ago, and it is still like this today hundreds of years later. Is it difficult for lovers in this world to get married and stay together?

Bai Suzhen couldn't understand that she was obviously just a fairy. Even her cultivation relied on absorbing the essence scattered between heaven and earth, and never relied on evil ways.

Sometimes, they even do good deeds and worship the gods and Buddhas all over the sky.

Why do you still suffer so much?

"Madam, madam..." Xu Xian looked at Bai Suzhen, who had turned into a "water man" in front of her, looking up to the sky and roaring in pain. She didn't know what to do for a moment, her eyes were filled with tears, she was panicked, and she had no idea.

Even the blood dripping from his knees and the pain caused by the violent collision were overwhelmed by the emotion of this moment.

Xu Xian is not a particularly independent person, which is the biggest difference between him and Xu Xuan.

But for Bai Suzhen's love, both of them are equally passionate and equally deep, but the former is tolerant, while the latter is passionate and unrestrained.

The night at this moment was unusually quiet, and there was nothing else except Bai Suzhen's roaring voice. The night at this moment was unusually bright, and the moonlight in the sky fell on the world, as if it were covering the city of Lin'an. covered with a layer of silver yarn;

At this moment of the night, Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian were in extraordinary pain, so painful that they couldn't breathe and almost suffocated.

As for the residents in Qingshi Alley, they seemed to have lost their hearing at this moment and became mute, turning a deaf ear to Bai Suzhen's painful roar.

There is no doubt that this is Fa Hai's handiwork.

"Sure enough, my guess was right." Fa Hai hid in the sky, searching for the source of the painful roar, and quickly locked on the destination.

He quietly looked down at Bai Suzhen, who was about to reveal her true form, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a smile that was completely opposite to the painful look below him.

"This Bai Suzhen is so beautiful that she doesn't look like a mortal. She is indeed a monster!" In fact, from the very beginning, Fa Hai was suspicious of Bai Suzhen.

As for the reason, it is nothing more than that Bai Suzhen is so beautiful that even the goddesses descending to earth can rarely compare with her.

The reason why Bai Suzhen transformed into such a conspicuous person was probably to make Xu Xian fall in love at first sight.

As for Bai Suzhen's appearance, it didn't attract much attention before, and she should have used some kind of magic to hide her figure.

Although the above are all Fahai's personal guesses, they are quite different from the actual situation.

"I want to see how long you, an evil beast, can endure it." Fahai looked coldly at Bai Suzhen's tragic image below. His purpose today was not to capture Bai Suzhen, but to force Bai Suzhen to appear in front of Xu Xian. Reveal her true identity and let Xu Xian see her true face clearly.

He has no control over the love between immortals and mortals.

But in this love between a human and a demon, he would never allow such a thing that goes against human ethics to happen before him, and he must make the prodigal son of Xu Xian turn around.

As for taking advantage of his illness to kill him?

This method is indeed a good way to reduce damage to those who catch monsters, but for a proud person like Fahai, it is shameful.

If you can't even capture this thousand-year-old snake demon, how can you have the dignity to serve as the abbot of Jinshan Temple in the future? What kind of face can there be to protect the safety of the people of one place? (Former Jinshan Temple abbot: Don’t drag me into bragging.)

…

"Let's go, let's go quickly..." Bai Suzhen felt the magic power in her body like a flood that broke the embankment, and the pain coming from her body. Coupled with Xu Xian's miserable appearance, she suddenly felt heartbroken.

On the delicate skin, there are already some scales as white as jade looming.

She realized her situation and wanted Xu Xian to leave as soon as possible. The last thing she wanted was to show her true self and scare Xu Xian.

Otherwise, how would the two get along in the future?

After all, one is a human and the other is a demon. There are differences between immortals and mortals, not to mention humans and demons who are almost mortal enemies?

If she really showed her true self in front of Xu Xian today, it would be hard to say whether there would be a future together.

"No!" Xu Xian, regardless of the injury on his leg, firmly hugged the woman in front of him who was shaking wildly, and his tone became more and more resolute: "I can't leave you at this time."

As a man, as Bai Suzhen's husband, he would never leave Bai Suzhen when she was in the most pain, otherwise what kind of husband and wife would they be.

Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, and they will shoulder the disaster together.

"Be good." Bai Suzhen suppressed the surging Buddha light in her body, swallowed the blood that flowed out of her throat, and tried her best to steady her hands. She gently comforted Xu Xian, who looked uneasy: "You are a doctor, you must know how to deal with it, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" As if hearing the music of the immortal, Xu Xian realized his identity in an instant, and then stood up suddenly, whispering: "My wife, wait for me here, you must wait for me, I will be back soon."

"Yes." Bai Suzhen nodded, and the scales on her face opened and closed.

Under the influence of alcohol and blood loss, Xu Xian's vision has gradually blurred. He hardly noticed the strange changes in Bai Suzhen, and he staggered into the house.

"Bang!"

The door was pushed open roughly. Although the room was very dim, and Xu Xian's vision was almost blind, the "smell" he had cultivated for a long time played a crucial role at this moment.

Without seeing, just smelling the fragrance of the medicine, Xu Xian can accurately lock the location of the medicine in the room and find a good prescription for pain relief.

"Boom!"

A loud noise suddenly sounded, but Xu Xian, who was concentrating, turned a deaf ear to it at this moment, or he had no time to hear it.

A moment later~

"Madam, hold on, hold on a little longer, I'm coming." Xu Xian muttered in his mouth, stumbled and pushed open the door, and walked out of the yard.

However, there was nothing in front of him, Bai Suzhen had already disappeared.

Crash!

Xu Xian was stunned, the medicinal materials in his hand fell to the ground uncontrollably, the blood on his knees flowed down the hem of his skirt, dyeing the lower part of his calf black and red.

"Madam, madam, where have you been?" Xu Xian screamed hysterically, looked around, and wiped the increasingly hazy world with both hands.

Suddenly.

His eyes suddenly focused, and he noticed a broken wall in the backyard. The originally intact wall had been damaged to a large hole, and the flowers and plants on the ground were also crushed to leave an obvious mark.

"Madam, madam..." Xu Xian was stunned for a moment, and then ran towards the broken wall as if he had felt something.

Under the dual influence of pain and alcohol, he did not think about the details of how Bai Suzhen, a weak woman, destroyed the brick wall and the strange marks on the ground.

Not far from the backyard of Li Gongfu's old house is the West Lake, which is covered with reeds.

"Madam, madam, where are you..." (End of this chapter)
