Chereads / White Fox Jade / Chapter 31 - Trap

Chapter 31 - Trap

They kiss for a long time. Di Jun have never have this kind of feeling before. Living for so long, this is the first time this strange feeling running inside. His breath is almost cutting off. Hu Li did not want to stop what she is doing. Her tail is send her the signal that it is comfortable she should continue. However Di Jun after a long time push her away and catch his breath. 

"Di Jun, what is the name of the action, we just did?"

"I don't know too." 

"Why is it so pleasurable? Did you like it?"

He put his hands on her cheeks. Hu Li move closer to him and hold him tightly. 

"I miss you. I miss you even when you are close to me like this."

Di Jun continue to stroke her cheeks. He then move a bit and kiss her forehead. 

When he look at her face, her eyes sparkles with delight. 

They continue to talk about various topic. When the sun goes down, he put up and inform her that he is returning to the sky palace. Hu Li did not want him to leave. She clink on to his pants. She finally let him go when he promise to return as soon as possible. She watch him vanish into the air and blending in with the wind into the sky. She walks back in loneliness she see the tree with the portal. She walks over and attempt to walk to the other side however she finds herself still in the same spot. After a few times, she realised that the portal is gone. She is trap and not able to go out to the human world. She look to the sky and yell

"You are not fair!!!" 

Three months pass, she spend her time alone and attending to her little garden. She read books and practise her handwriting. She try to cook as well but it is not tasty as she remember the dishes how they should be. Till one day, while reading her book on advance magic, she hears her name echo a few time around her mind. Finally a loud and clear voice rings. She feels like she been paralysed. 

"I command Bai Hu Li to return!" 

She finds herself in a windy portal. It is twisting and turning. She can't move. She can't utter her spells. She is helplessly carry by the force of the wind. After awhile, the wind ends, she finds herself in a black and white environment. She look ahead of her, she sees Sheng Qin looking at her. He is like a painting. Outline and drawn with black ink. Everything around him is white. She attempts to walk to him however, she is block by an invisible wall in front of her. She punch the invisible wall a few times. She begin to feel panic, what is going on? 

Sheng Qin look at the painting and he tear. Many moons ago, he had a dream. An old man who claim he is the ancestor of the Yue family. He ask Sheng Qin to bring in a spiritual guardian for the family. She will rebuilt the Yue family. Sheng Qin told him he don't know any. That old man told him that Hu Li is one. He wake up with fear in his heart. Sweat beads form on his face. He walk to his study room and sit on the chair. He look across to the wall that hangs the painting of Hu Li. He remember the old man telling him that he needs to mix three blood drops into the ink pad. Write her name on the scroll and call her name. She will be trap in the scroll. She will be a living move painting inside the scroll. For many days, he continue to work by copying books. Sometimes he goes to the market to help sell vegetables. Other days he goes to help the restaurants to wash dishes. Everyday he wait for Hu Li's return. Every night he hopes that she will climb in by the window and smile at him. Every day he becomes depress. His elder servants told him to forget his bride and look for another. On the night of the full moon, he stare at it for a long time. Finally he make up his mind. Sheng Qin have a paper mount on the scroll. He takes out a knife and prick his finger. After three blood drops, he mix it on the ink pad. As he grind, his mind tells him to do it faster. While his heart says no he should not do that. While his mind says that it might not be true that Hu Li is not human. If after he does the spells, the scroll have nothing. That proves that she is human and he must be hallucinating. However his heart says if after the spell Hu Li is in there, isn't he trapping her in there forever. He pick up his brush after mixing his blood and the ink. He carefully dip the brush on the ink pad. Sheng Qin breath in deeply. He close his eyes and call her name. Finally he said "I command Bai Hu Li to return!" and he starts to write her name on the left top corner. He writes a poem and at the bottom he writes his name. He hangs it up on the wall next to the painting of Hu Li. Soon the scroll with her name starts to act strange. A person appear in the scroll. She is moving around. His eyes widen as he watch her knocking and kicking. She look at him and mouth his name. Even he can't hear it, he can see that she is calling him. He look at the painting of Hu Li there is nothing that they look alike too. He asked himself if he trap the wrong person in the scroll. For the person in the scroll have a pair of cat ears, long tail and seems like furry all over. Plus the face, looks like a feline.
