Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 303 Sleeping Again

After riding for a long distance, he found a suitable place to stop and, like before, searched carefully in the nearby mountains and forests every day.

Time seemed to pass quickly. In a blink of an eye, a month had passed. The weather gradually became colder, and fewer and fewer people were looking for medicine in the mountains.

Ning Ji and Si He still got nothing, but they picked more and more medicinal herbs.

Helplessly, I can only leave the mountain first, mainly because judging from Si He's condition, it is estimated that the next sleep will be coming soon.

Now Ning Ji has roughly figured out some patterns, and estimates that this time the sleeping time will be longer.

The two of them headed towards Beisha Country. Compared to Dayan Country, Beisha Country was more stable and had fewer dangerous factors.

At this time in the forest, the leaves of many trees have turned yellow, and some trees are even bare. The forest is no longer dark, and sunlight can be seen in many places.

Therefore, Si He could only wrap herself tightly and could not take advantage of the dark corners of the forest as before without wearing a veil.

After leaving Tianshan Mountains, Ning Ji did not go too far, but went to a remote town near Tianshan Mountains.

The small town of Wumeng is surrounded by mountains and is relatively remote, close to the Tianshan Mountains, but it has a relatively large population and is quite lively.

When Ning Ji brought Si He into the town, he saw the bustling streets, which was a long-lost bustle.

Ning Ji rode his horse slowly along the way, passing through the streets. Many people along the way looked at him sideways, but they soon withdrew their gazes. People like them who had just come out of the mountains were very common. A considerable number of those who had recently come out of the Tianshan Mountains would also come to this town to rest, mainly because it was close.

After crossing the street, Ning Ji found a business and rented a house, intending to live there temporarily, and then go into the mountains next year after the winter.

There are not many vacant houses in the small town, but the prices are still relatively cheap. After all, this place is relatively remote and some distance away from the big city.

Ning Ji and Si He chose a secluded house far away from the main street, which they could move into after a simple renovation.

At night, the moon is high in the sky, and the sky is dotted with stars, which are bright and beautiful.

In the courtyard, Si He took off her veil, revealing a slightly pale face. She sat on a recliner, nestled in Ning Ji's arms, looking at the stars in the night sky.

The night wind blew, bringing a chill that penetrated into the bones, and the hair of the two people fluttered and entangled together.

Ning Ji reached out and gathered her cloak, then asked, "Are you cold?"

She shook her head. "I'm not cold, just a little sleepy."

"Then I'll carry you in to sleep?"

"But I don't want to sleep."

She forced herself to sleep and didn't want to close her eyes. She had a feeling that she would start a deep sleep and it would not be an ordinary sleep. Based on the previous two times she had fallen asleep, each time was longer than the last. She didn't know how long she would sleep this time. She wanted to stay with him for a while longer.

Ning Ji patted her head and said, "Go to sleep if you want to."

"it is good."

The night breeze was blowing gently, and the cool wind blowing on her face made her feel a little more awake.

She put her arms around his waist and leaned lazily against him. His strong chest made her feel safe, and she enjoyed the tranquility of the moment.

A golden leaf fluttered in the wind, like a beautiful butterfly, and landed lightly on her knees. She reached out and picked up the leaf, gently wiping it. "Husband, the song you played before was very beautiful. Can you play it for me again?"

"Okay." Ning Ji took the leaf from her hand, put it to his lips, and blew it gently.

The leaf's voice was not as beautiful as that of an instrument, but his playing technique was pretty good, and the melody was slow and pleasant, which made her feel particularly peaceful in her heart.

This time the playing was different from before. He was just playing a tune without stirring up the evil spirit in the bronze tripod. The tune was not so sharp and did not contain any hostility. It was very gentle and carried a hint of affection.

Another gust of night wind blew, and the fallen leaves in the yard fluttered like a group of butterflies dancing, rising and falling.

Si He listened to the beautiful melody with a smile on her lips, but her eyelids became heavier and heavier. She blinked, wanting to listen for a while longer. After a while, she could not resist the drowsiness that swept over her, and slowly closed her eyes. Her consciousness gradually became blurred, and the beautiful melody in her ears slowly faded away.

After a while, her shallow breathing gradually became weaker, and finally she stopped breathing and fell into a deep sleep. The hand that she was holding around him also slipped down.

Ning Ji stopped playing, reached out and hugged her tightly, looking down at her sleeping face. After a while, he raised his hand and gently stroked her cheek. His eyes were deep, and he looked at her quietly for a long time, and finally just sighed lightly.

The moonlight was bright, silvery, and one could see that her face was completely devoid of color, as pale as the moonlight itself. Her body temperature also gradually cooled, becoming icy cold, like a corpse.

At this moment, the talisman on Ning Ji's waist suddenly began to rotate slowly. After she fell asleep, a faint evil aura emanated from her body, which was intermittent. Only because he was holding her and the distance between them was very close could he feel it.

Mo Mo, who was not far away, raised his head and looked over here. His small eyes looked particularly bright at this moment.

"Hiss~" It stuck out its tongue and barked at the two of them.

Ning Ji ignored Mo Mo. He lowered his head, kissed Si He's forehead, picked her up and walked into the house.

Mo Mo hurriedly followed in.

Ning Ji put her on the bed and covered her with a thin blanket, even though the temperature was nothing to her.

Momo climbed onto the bed and rubbed his little head against her cheek, but she was still sleeping soundly and unconscious.

Ning Ji reached out and pushed its little head away with a bit of disgust, and whispered to it, "Guard it well, don't move."

Mo Mo turned her head to look at Ning Ji, stuck out her tongue, not knowing whether he understood or not. She looked a little silly, staring at him motionlessly.

Ning Ji withdrew his gaze, looked at Si He without saying anything, and then reached out to wipe her cheek.

After a while, he stood up and walked out of the house.

As soon as he walked out the door, Momo put his head towards Si He's cheek again, continuing the previous action, and gently rubbed her face with his little head.

"Hiss~" it called softly, but there was no other sound in the room except its voice.

After a while, footsteps were heard outside. It quickly retracted its head and lay obediently on the edge of the bed, curled up into a ball, and did not move, looking very well-behaved and obedient.

Ning Ji brought a basin of water, came to the bedside, and placed it on a low stool beside it. He picked up the cloth in the basin, wrung out the water, and then sat down on the bedside. He wiped her hands and face as he did before, his movements gentle and careful.

Momo stayed quietly and watched his movements.

The night was quiet, and there was only an oil lamp burning in the room, making the light dim.

In the light of the lamp, his figure was reflected on the wall, and every move he made was full of tenderness and unparalleled love.
