After Cultivating With the Enemy

Ji Chaoyun didn't speak for a long time, and Feng Qi didn't urge, but fixedly staring at him.

"Why did you start shaking?" Feng Qi whispered softly, "Is it cold?"

Ji Chaoyun's lips were pressed tightly, and a slight tremor spread from his heart to his limbs, and even his fingertips began to tremble slightly.

He was held tightly in Feng Qi's arms. The warm embrace was like a gentle and ardent dream, dragging him into the bizarre illusion, and he could only let his consciousness fall, and there was no way to escape.

Feng Qi's hand slid down inch by inch, from his profile to his shoulders and neck, to his forearm, and finally touched his cold fingers.

He first touched it tentatively. Seeing that the other party didn't push away, he put his palm up and held it carefully.

Feng Qi seemed to be greatly encouraged by this action. His eyes moved slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Isn't it cold? Very nervous?"

"..."

"What are you nervous about?" Feng Qi licked his lips, with some dumbness in his voice, "Is it me holding you, holding your hand, or..."

His ending was drowned in the constant clamor of the two people's heartbeats, Ji Chaoyun saw Feng Qi drop his eyes, his gaze fell on his lips.

...He wants to kiss him.

Those eager explanations, inadvertent touches and throbbing, all the unspoken feelings, at this moment finally faded like the tide, showing what it should have been.

Ji Chaoyun turned his head when Feng Qi lowered his head, his slightly closed eyelashes trembled, and he couldn't make a half-minute voice.

At that moment, he could even feel Feng Qi's breathing on his side face, hot and rushing, almost burning all his senses.

But he did not touch him.

Feng Qi stopped a short distance from Ji Chaoyun.

Ji Chaoyun didn't dare to move. He clearly heard Feng Qi's joking smile from his nose: "So casual?"

"..." Ji Chaoyun gritted his teeth, his voice trembled so hard that he could not become an army, "...Don't be kidding me."

"I'm not joking with you." Feng Qi still maintained the dangerous and malicious distance, as if as long as he entered an inch, his lips could touch Ji Chaoyun's side face, "I will not force you or move you, but this will not It means I'm joking."

Ji Zhaoyun opened his eyes suddenly and turned to look at him.

Feng Qi hurriedly raised his head and hid, laughing: "...but if you take the initiative to kiss you, don't blame me."

Ji Chaoyun didn't have the thought of laughing with him. He and Feng Qi looked at each other, and it took a long time to speak in a low voice, "You just said..."

"Brother Chaoyun, have you tried all of your clothes? Brother A Xun said, before you get married, you will get a room and let me..." A Feng's voice suddenly came from outside the door, and the two were pushed before they could separate. And the young boy who entered hit the spot.

A Feng stared at the two dumbfounded, blinked, and took a long time before answering the following: "...Let me take you to the new guest room."

The stalemate in the room was swept away, Ji Chaoyun pushed Feng Qi away and stood up, and said quickly: "I've tried, let's go."

"Chaoyun..." Feng Qi stretched out his hand subconsciously to pull him, but Ji Chaoyun avoided him.

Ji Chaoyun: "Sorry, I..."

He didn't finish his sentence, didn't dare to look at the people beside him, and walked out the door.Before leaving the room, Ji Chaoyun paused slightly, as if he wanted to look back at Feng Qi.

But he didn't move in the end, only closed his eyes, and quickly left the tree house.

After leaving the tree house, Ji Chaoyun always looked cold and said nothing.Afeng tried to talk to Ji Chaoyun several times, but he shrank back because of the frosty expression of the other party.

The residence arranged for Ji Chaoyun is on a nearby branch, not far from the original tree house.Afeng quickly took Ji Chaoyun to the place, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw the old patriarch sitting inside.

A Feng hurriedly bowed to the old patriarch: "Grandpa patriarch."

The old patriarch smiled and waved his hand: "A Yi, let's go out first, I will talk to Chaoyun."

"I'm not Ayi..." Afeng murmured, then turned and left.

Ji Chaoyun watched him leave, closed the door, and walked to the old patriarch: "The patriarch is looking for something to do with me?"

"Extend your hand and give you a good thing." The old patriarch leaned into his arms, rummaging for a moment, and took out a pair of bracelets woven from vines.He took Ji Chaoyun's hand and brought one of them to his wrist, saying, "This thing is woven from banyan vines, with the power of our banyan tree clan to protect the tree spirits, and it can bless lovers in the end. Keep it for a lifetime."

Ji Chaoyun looked stiff.

The vines were woven extremely delicately, and the dark vines were tied to Ji Chaoyun's wrists, making the wrists more slender and white.

But Ji Chaoyun felt that this thing seemed to weigh a thousand kilograms, and it almost made him breathless when pressed on his heart: "Patriarch, in fact, we..."

The old patriarch did not pay attention to what he said. He took Ji Chaoyun's hand and looked back and forth. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became: "It should have been two days later when you gave it to you under the banyan tree, but I can't wait. This is another one. I'll give it to you too. You will wear it for your husband yourself when that happens, okay?"

The old patriarch stuffed another bracelet into Ji Chaoyun's hand, and said to himself: "This item is usually given by parents and elders. I have two pairs here. One pair is given to Xun and the other pair is kept for you. According to the legend of the Banyan Tree tribe, as long as the two of them wear this thing, they are bound by the tree spirit and will never be separated again—"

Ji Chaoyun suddenly withdrew his hand.

The old patriarch raised his eyes suspiciously: "What's the matter?"

Ji Chaoyun looked at the haggard face of the old patriarch, his throat was dry, and he couldn't say a word.

The demon clan can maintain its youthful appearance for a long time, and its life span is limited. When the demon pill begins to fail, it will age faster than a mortal.He and the old patriarch had not seen each other in just five years, but the other party had become almost unrecognizable.

Ji Chaoyun looked away and whispered: "It's okay, I'm just...a bit tired."

"That's it." The old patriarch nodded in understanding and said softly, "If I have to be busy with the wedding ceremony these few days, I will definitely get tired. You hurry up and stop, I won't disturb you."

"The Patriarch..."

"It's okay." The old patriarch interrupted him softly, "I just brought you this thing. Now that the thing is delivered, I will leave first. You have a good rest, and I will come to see you another day."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for what Ji Chaoyun was saying, he walked out of the room with a bamboo stick.

The door was closed again, and Ji Chaoyun stood alone, unable to see clearly.After a while, he removed the bracelet worn by the old patriarch on his wrist and put it back on the table with the other one in his hand.

The sky outside has completely dimmed. He extinguished the spiritual lamp in the room, fumbled back to the bed in the dark, and lay down in the clothes.

Ji Chaoyun curled up and looked out of the window.Through the window sills and the dense foliage of the banyan tree, you can just see the tree house where he originally lived.

The light of the tree house in the distance was not extinguished all night, Ji Chaoyun remained motionless, just staring at it all night.

Because the newlyweds of the Banyan tree family did not see each other before they got married, Ji Chaoyun did not see Feng Qi for the remaining two days.

Soon it was the wedding day.

In the early morning of this day, Ji Chaoyun was called by the tribe to dress up, and then he was taken under the banyan tree.

The appearance under the banyan tree has completely changed.

A hundred flowers are in full bloom on the grass, and the path full of flowers leads to under the banyan tree.The countless stems hanging down from the banyan tree were also covered with flowers, mixed with the rich fragrance of flowers, and the petals were blown off by the wind.

Standing at the end of the path, Feng Qi had a natural expression. When he touched Ji Chaoyun's gaze, he even gave him a slight smile.

As if nothing happened that night.

He didn't know how much work it took to persuade the tribe to change the wedding dress to a normal standard similar to Ji Chaoyun.The red wedding dress was worn on him, and the outline was tall and slender, especially outstanding.

Ji Chaoyun has never seen anyone who can dress red so nicely, so good-looking... it makes people reluctant to look away.

Feng Qi is the kind of person who will never be annihilated.No matter when and where, no matter what he is dressed, he is always the most dazzling one, and anyone in front of him will be eclipsed.

Ji Chaoyun was led to walk down a long path before Feng Qi.

Feng Qi always watched him seriously, and never looked away for a moment.

"You look so good." Feng Qi said softly.

He raised his hand towards Ji Chaoyun, seeming to want to touch his face.But Ji Chaoyun turned his head to avoid it.

Feng Qi's hand froze in the air suddenly, and put it back in a calm manner.

The wedding ceremony officially began. The Si Li who presided over the ceremony stood in front and didn't know what to say, but Ji Chaoyun didn't hear a word.Feng Qi was by his side, and he could see it as long as he tilted his head, but he felt that their distance was unprecedented.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Si Li's speech suddenly stopped.

After knowingly, Ji Chaoyun raised his head, but found that everyone was watching him, and an unknown clan member beside him whispered: "The newcomer should worship the banyan tree."

The wedding ceremony of the banyan family is held under the banyan tree. The newlyweds have to bow to the banyan tree for three times before it is considered as the ceremony.

Worship the Banyan Tree...

Ji Chaoyun looked up at the tall canopy of the banyan tree. The banyan fruit glowed with crystal light, and the petals dotted on the stems fell beside them, watching them with eager eyes, waiting for his next reaction.

Not far from the two, the old patriarch sat in a wicker chair with a gentle smile on his face.

This is not true.

It's just acting, not really.

Ji Chaoyun said this to himself in his heart, retracted his eyes and knelt down.

A bow.

The two leaned over at the same time.

Second worship.

Ji Chaoyun closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling imperceptibly.

Three prayers.

The clansman in charge of the ceremony finished the three prayers, but the two under the banyan tree did not move.

Feng Qi tilted his head to look at Ji Chaoyun, who had a straight back and his eyes drooping, not knowing what he was thinking.

Feng Qi sighed imperceptibly. Just as he was about to stop, Ji Chaoyun suddenly grabbed his wrist and got up.

"?"

Ji Chaoyun's eyes were red, and he couldn't help pulling up Feng Qi to go outside: "I have a few words to tell you, come with me."

The Banyan Tree tribe had never encountered a newcomer who suddenly fled during the ceremony. For a while, they were in a mess. Even Ji Chaoyun took Feng Qi through the crowd and forgot to stop.

In the panic, only the old patriarch grabbed Ji Xun and said slowly and leisurely: "Let them go. Young people, just keep talking, don't disturb them."

Ji Xun was taken aback: "Grandpa, what do you mean?"

"What's the meaning?" The old patriarch looked up at him blankly, and then turned his head to look at the panicked crowd, annoyed, "What are you doing? The auspicious hour is about to arrive, why don't you be ready?"

"..."
