Chapter 248
Yu Xi's heart sank suddenly.
Second brother has lost his sense of taste?
why?
She has been carefully protecting Jizhi in the past two years, using Gongsun Ming to stop anyone who might harm Jizhi, eliminating the possibility of Jizhi being poisoned.
Could it be that Jizhi lost his sense of taste because of poisoning?
At the moment when Yu Xi was stunned, Zhong Xian and Su Xianyun also entered the house.
Su Xianyun glanced at Jizhi, who was twisting and turning on the ground like a big fat worm, trying to hide his head, thinking that no one could find him if he hid his head. He exhaled and pulled the man up first.
"I can't get up! I can't get up!" Ji Zhi struggled, "You can't see me! You can't see me!"
Unfortunately, Jizhi was controlled by Su Xianyun's traction technique at this moment. No matter how reluctant he was, he was still pulled up and knelt on the ground looking pitiful, like a prisoner being bullied.
Seeing Jizhi's panicked look and wanting to run away, Zhong Xian glared at him fiercely, and was so ferocious that he was actually silenced by the glare.
"You ignored what I said, didn't you?" Zhong Xian said coldly, "Talk to Xiao Xi'er about your own affairs."
Keeping this kind of thing secret will only hurt others and yourself in the end. He had already made it very clear to Jizhi before.
But Jizhi just didn’t want to say it!
Just as he thought that hiding his head would prevent him from being discovered, he also thought that as long as he didn't say anything, his sister wouldn't know.
Why do you have to let your sister know?
My sister will be sad!
At this moment, Jizhi felt that Zhong Xian and the others were extremely evil and were determined to make his sister sad.
Seeing Jizhi's stubbornness, Zhong Xian wanted to kick Jizhi, but Yu Xi beside him took a step forward before him, clamped Jizhi's face in his palms with both hands and started pinching it.
"Brother, have you lost your sense of taste?"
As soon as the voice came out, the room fell silent instantly.
Jizhi also opened his eyes wide in shock.
He, he didn’t say anything, how did his sister know?
Yu Xi asked again: "Do you still want to hide it from me?"
Jizhi's face was being rubbed, and he could only stutter out: "Sister, sister..."
"You tried to hide such an important thing from me. I'm angry."
Hearing Yu Xi's calm tone, Ji Zhi became even more panicked. He wanted to explain something in a hurry, but who would have thought that the next second Yu Xi threw herself into his arms and hugged his neck tightly.
"Don't be afraid, brother."
Yu Xi said.
Jizhi was stunned.
Yu Xi buried her head in the crook of Ji Zhi's neck and said in a very serious and firm voice:
"You're going to get better. You're going to get better."
Yu Xi still remembered that Ji Zhi once told her that he could not sense anything except taste, and there was no difference between being alive and being dead.
Ji Zhi said it nonchalantly at the time, but Yu Xi knew that if Ji Zhi really didn't care about these perceptions, there would be no need for him to say these things.
Now that he has lost his only sense of taste, Jizhi must be the one who is most afraid and in need of comfort.
"Will it be okay?"
Jizhi suddenly spoke.
The magic string that bound him had loosened. He raised his hands and hugged Yu Xi tightly. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he choked out in fear, "Will it be okay?
"I'm scared, sister, I'm scared... I'm afraid that if I can't taste anything now, will I lose my sight in the future?
"I'm afraid that I'll get worse and worse. I'm afraid that I won't even be able to feel myself in the end. I don't want to disappear like this. I want to continue to be with my sister. I want my sister to be happy and not sad because of me."
"I don't want to die."
Ji Zhi hugged Yu Xi tightly in fear, as if only in this way could he gain some strength: "Sister, I don't want to die, I don't want to be alone."
He thought that as long as he didn't say it, he could pretend that his sense of taste was still there.
He wouldn't be any worse off.
You won’t die.
He has a younger sister, and he can't bear to die, he wants to be with his sister.
Yu Xi could feel that her shoulders were wet from Ji Zhi's tears.
She patted Jizhi's back, and with her back to Jizhi, there was murderous intent in her eyes. She hated the culprit who made Jizhi become what he is now.
My mother had said before that Jizhi was missing a soul, and as long as he could get that soul back, he might be able to regain consciousness.
Now that Jizhi has lost his sense of taste, and it’s not caused by poisoning, it’s very likely related to the soul that Jizhi has lost.
If I could find this soul now...
Yu Xi had just thought about this when Luo Chunxi's voice suddenly came from behind him:
"Jizhi, why are you crying?"
Yu Xi turned around and saw Luo Chunxi leaning against the window, looking at them with a frown.
"Mother, my second brother—"
Yu Xi was about to tell Luo Chunxi, but Luo Chunxi spoke first, "I heard it all. This guy's crying was so loud that it could lift the roof off the house. This is the first time I've heard that my disciple, Luo Chunxi, can cry like this!"
If someone else heard this, they would probably be embarrassed to death, but Ji Zhi just rubbed his eyes and sobbed innocently:
"Gu An will repair the broken roof."
Gu An, who was standing at the door, looked at him silently.
Luo Chunxi's forehead twitched.
Seeing that Luo Chunxi was about to lose her temper, Zhong Xian glared at Ji Zhi again. Seeing that Ji Zhi had finally calmed down, he quickly looked at Luo Chunxi and said:
"Master, Jizhi suddenly lost his sense of taste. Su Xianyun is certain it wasn't poisoning. Now, do we have to find Jizhi's lost soul?"
Luo Chunxi glanced at him sideways: "Haven't you already gone to look for it? Why are you asking me? You still smell of Xuanxing Sect's medicine on you."
The bell strings were choked.
He sniffed his body, but didn't smell anything?
Unexpectedly, Luo Chunxi could tell where he had been at a glance. He really couldn't hide anything from her.
Thinking about it this way, Xiao Xier was also very smart. She knew that Jizhi had lost his sense of taste with just one look at him.
Thinking of this, Zhong Xian was not embarrassed at all, but happy. He was proud that Xiao Xier was so smart!
Su Xianyun looked at Zhong Xian, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
He finally knew where the medicine Zhong Xian brought came from.
"No clues found at all?" Luo Chunxi said again.
Zhong Xian nodded.
Among the immortal sects, only the Xuanxing Sect knows how to make medicine men.
Therefore, after Zhong Xian agreed to help Su Xianyun find medicinal herbs, he went directly to Xuanxing Sect.
Since Jizhi was no different from a hostage of Xuanxing Sect, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, he still took some effort to sneak in. Unfortunately, he couldn't find even a single soul after searching for a long time, and he couldn't even find the medicine man.
The Xuanxing Sect is not small, and it will take at least several months to search it all.
Besides, not all the people in Xuanxing Sect are fools. If you stay there for too long, you will definitely be discovered.
Luo Chunxi guessed this, glanced at Ji Zhi, and said in a calm voice:
"The Xuanxing Sect doesn't create medicine men within their own sect. They only store ordinary medicinal materials. The places where medicine men are actually created are usually in the small sects they manage."
