Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 304: Like a moth to a flame, willing to accept it

The long night passed, the sun rose, and the autumn morning was filled with a deep chill, especially when the autumn wind blew, bringing a bit of bleakness, but also the tranquility and serenity unique to autumn, just like the courtyard at this time.

The small trees in the yard were rustling in the wind, leaves were flying everywhere, and the windows were creaking. The autumn wind blew in through the gaps in the windows, and the curtains in the house were also blown up, rising and falling, gently fluttering, and even the tents were shaking slightly.

Ning Ji walked to the window and closed it tightly so that the wind outside could not blow in. The curtain fell again and the room returned to peace.

He returned to the bedside and saw that Si He was still sleeping soundly. He reached out and gently stroked her head. After a while, he walked out of the house to deal with the medicinal herbs picked from Tianshan Mountain.

When he walked out of the house, he saw Momo crawling back from outside with a slightly bulging belly. It seemed that he had just come back from hunting, so he didn't have to feed him.

Momo was about to crawl into the house, but Ning Ji closed the door first and said to it, "Just stay in the yard."

Mo Mo looked up at him, and finally, he squatted at the door of the house.

Seeing this, Ning Ji ignored it.

The peaceful days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed, and autumn had gone and winter had come.

The weather began to get cold, so Momo dug a hole in the yard early and began hibernating.

When the first snow of winter fell, Si He still showed no signs of waking up and was still sleeping soundly.

There was a stove burning in the room, which was very warm. The charcoal fire occasionally made some noise when it burned, but other than that, the room was silent.

Ning Ji sat on the edge of the bed, watching the snowflakes drifting outside the window. He felt sad, but it was a pity that he was the only one enjoying the snow by the fire.

He retracted his gaze and lowered it to look at the sleeping Si He. After a while, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly and he whispered, "He He, it's snowing. If you don't wake up, you will miss the first snow of this year."

After he finished speaking, the room remained silent and he received no response.

The snow outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, the cold wind was blowing, and snowflakes were flying all over the sky.

In a short while, the whole yard was covered with a thin layer of white snow.

He reached out and gently touched her cheek with the back of his fingertips. Her face was cold, just like the snow outside. He murmured to himself, "You're getting more and more sleepy."

At this moment, he suddenly pulled back his hand, covered his mouth, coughed softly, and a fishy and sweet taste came from his throat. After a while, he put down his hand and saw a little blood stain on it.

He looked at the bloodstain in his hand with indifference, then took out a handkerchief, wiped the corner of his mouth, and then wiped his palm clean. The originally snow-white post was suddenly stained red, as if a red plum was painted on it, which was very conspicuous.

After wiping the blood stains, he took out a medicine bottle, poured out a small pill, and took it.

This is a pill for clearing out the evil energy in the body.

Ever since Si He fell asleep, a faint evil aura began to emanate from her body. This might be the body's autonomous defense, or a way to strengthen the body. It was beneficial to her, but harmful to Ning Ji.

The evil energy is harmful to everyone except people like her.

Although Ning Ji has ways to prevent the evil energy from eroding her body, such as talismans, the evil energy in her body will gradually decrease, which is not good for her.

Or, don't get close to her.

As long as you don't get close to her, you won't be corroded by the evil energy from her.

But he couldn't stay away from her. Even though he knew that getting close to her would hurt his body, he still wanted to get close to her, like a moth to a flame, willing to do so.

Therefore, he could only rely on taking medicine to clear the evil energy in his body.

After taking the pills, his complexion looked much better. He then put away the medicine bottle and sat by the bed to calmly regulate his breathing for a while.

After a long while, he lay down on the bed, as he always did, holding Si He in his arms, covering her with a thick quilt, and closing his eyes to rest.

The room was silent, with only the occasional crackling sound from the charcoal fire in the stove.

The cold wind was blowing, and although the window was not open very wide, the curtains beside the window were blown back and forth, rustling. Even some snowflakes floated in, but after falling to the ground, they quickly melted, turned into water stains, and finally disappeared without a trace.

The heavy snow lasted for a long time. The whole town was covered with snow, and it was covered in silver. Everything was white. The streams were frozen, and the birds and animals disappeared.

It was not until several months later that the weather gradually improved and winter passed and spring came.

The snow melts and all things come back to life.

In the yard, new green sprouts appeared on the branches of the small trees. Beneath the trees, some hardy grasses also began to emerge, adding a touch of fresh green and vitality.

Especially in the early morning, some birds will stop and jump on the branches of small trees, chirping and calling, which is very noisy.

Early that morning, Si He woke up to the chirping of birds, not knowing whether she was woken up by the noise.

She opened her eyes in a daze, and the moment she opened her eyes, the evil aura on her body instantly subsided. Her originally pale face gradually began to regain some color, and her lips also became a little red, no longer looking like a dead person.

The room was empty and she was the only one lying on the bed, but there was the sound of chopping wood in the yard, so Ning Ji must be working outside.

Si He lay quietly on the bed, relaxed for a while, and then slowly sat up after she was a little more awake.

She sat on the bed, twisted her neck, moved her body, and didn't know how long she had slept this time. She felt a little uncomfortable physically, but her spirits were getting better and better.

She stuck her head out and looked towards the window, but unfortunately the window was only a crack open, so she couldn't see anyone or anything outside. Helplessly, she could only open her mouth and shout, "Husband~"

Her voice was a little hoarse because she had just woken up.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of chopping wood outside stopped immediately. Then there was a "clang" sound, as if an axe had fallen to the ground, followed by a burst of hurried footsteps.

boom!

Ning Ji quickly pushed the door open and walked into the bedroom. He saw Si He sitting on the bed, looking at him with a bright smile.

"Husband."

She called out sweetly again, then held out her hands as if asking for a hug.

"Yeah." Ning Ji responded, and then quickly walked over. After sitting beside the bed, he also reached out and hugged her, "You're finally awake."

His voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of excitement and happiness. He hugged her very tightly, and his emotions were very obvious.

He buried his face in the corner of her neck. She couldn't see it, but she could feel it.

"Husband~How long have I been sleeping?"

Si He put her arms around his waist and smelled the faint medicinal scent on his body, feeling particularly at ease.

"Four and a half months." He raised his head and looked at her face. Hearing her hoarse voice, he asked, "Are you thirsty? Can I get you a glass of water?"

Si He opened her eyes wide in disbelief. Although she had expected the sleep to be long, she was still surprised to hear that it had lasted four and a half months. However, she still agreed to Ning Ji's words, "Okay."
