Liang Qiuqiu was afraid that the team would go away, so she hurriedly chased after her, and after walking a long distance, she didn't forget to turn around and wave vigorously at Hongsu, who was sitting on the tree. 『』

Hongsu watched her leave.

It was much quieter outside the city gates, and she hugged the trunk of the tree and pressed her forehead against it.

Autumn ......

She silently recited the name in her mind.

I hope Qiuqiu can return to the place where she belongs as she wishes.

The early morning wind was very comfortable on the face, and Hongsu sat alone in the tree for a long time. I heard a bell from afar, coming from the ancient mountain, it should be the senior brother who is going to give a lecture.

She jumped down from the tree and walked back listlessly.

When I passed by the inn, I found that the door of the inn was half closed, and there was no appearance of welcoming guests.

San'er was recruiting, Fu Yan was doing accounts in the back room, and after seeing Hongsu, San'er hurriedly came out, and said with a flattering face: "Lord Hongsu, you are back, I have specially prepared a table of good wine and food for you!

"I don't drink. ”

Hong Su refused, she looked at the chubby man in front of her, and said softly, "I have something to tell you." ”

"Come in!"

Hongsu entered the inn, and San'er was still standing at the door and looking around--no, didn't Qiuqiu go out with Hongsu? Why did she come back alone?

Fu Yan was keeping accounts, and when he looked up, he saw a strange girl, he put down the brush and walked around: "Girl, I'm sorry, we don't do business today......

"Fu Yan! she's the Hongsu Master I told you!"

"Huh?" Fu Yan was stunned, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Lord Hongsu! The small one has eyes and no beads! You must not be like me......

"Don't call me Lord Hongsu - just call me by my name. If you really pass the test and join the Gushan faction, then call me senior sister. ”

"Yes, yes......"

San'er also leaned over: "Red Su Da...... Susu, didn't she go out with you, Qiuqiu, why didn't she come back?"

Fu Yan also looked at her.

Hongsu lowered her eyelids and said softly, "She's gone." ”

"Gone?"

"Where?"

San'er and Fu Yan asked at the same time.

Hong Su explained as best she could: "She followed the people and horses of Gushan to the border of the Demon Domain...... Before Qiuqiu leaves, let me say goodbye to you on her behalf, and I will arrange for you to go to Gushan for the exam. By the way, my mother-in-law has woken up, right? Let my mother-in-law go with me now, isn't her son in the sect, and the reunion of mother and son should be looking forward to it for a long time. ”

San'er and Fu Yan heard it in a fog, especially Fu Yan, when he slept and woke up, Qiuqiu was gone, saying that he went out with the red pigment of the Gushan faction to see off Lord Gray Luo.

As a result, he just didn't come back?

The two of them glanced at each other, Qiuqiu ...... It can't be an accident, right?

Hongsu found that their expressions were strange, and she quickly explained: "It's really Qiuqiu who wants to go by herself, she is afraid that she won't be able to catch up with the team and won't come back, if you don't believe me...... The team hasn't gone far yet, and it should be too late to chase after it!"

"Hongsu, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just that Qiuqiu said she left and left...... Hey!"

San'er sat down in the chair, he rubbed his hair with his hands, his face full of anxiety.

She hadn't prepared anything, had she? It was a long way from here to the border of the Demon Realm, and if the people of the Gushan Sect didn't take her in, how would she survive?

Fu Yan's expression was also very solemn, in fact, during this time with Qiuqiu, he could feel that sooner or later they would be separated. I didn't expect to come here, he really didn't prepare at all.

The old woman had just come down from the second floor, and she heard what they were saying, and she walked over step by step with her hand on crutches. She opened her mouth and said, "Qiuqiu, this child is a blessed person, she will definitely be fine!"

"Mother-in-law, you're here, be careful of slippery roads. ”

Fu Yan hurriedly walked up to help, and the old man smiled: "It's okay, you are all good people, you don't bother me along the way...... Miss Hongsu, you are the last person to see Qiuqiu, can you tell me that she is leaving...... What color are you wearing?"

When she said the last sentence, the old man's voice trembled a little, and she turned her head sideways and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands.

After more than a month of getting along day and night, I finally have feelings.

She was such a good girl, always by her side telling jokes to make her happy, shushing her and asking for warmth, and never disliking her.

If it weren't for Qiuqiu, she might have starved to death in a deserted village by now, and her body would have been eaten by vultures.

Hongsu thought about it for a moment: "She...... She was dressed in blue, her hair ornaments were simple and neat, and she was still the same as usual, and she looked very good when she smiled. ”

Perhaps, Liang Qiuqiu is just a passing visitor in this world, but in the hearts of some people, she has left traces.

The old woman nodded again and again: "Okay, good...... She was still dressed in the new clothes I had prepared for her...... By the way, what about the purse? Did you bring the purse? I specially asked for it from Avalokiteshvara!

"Brought it—"

"That's good......"

San'er and Fu Yan were silent, and in the end, Hongsu left with the old woman.

Fu Yan returned to the counter, he picked up the brush and continued to do the accounts, thinking about buying furniture, tables and chairs, and kitchen supplies...... There are also shopkeepers, chefs, etc., all of which need silver, and they have to be written down by 1510.

San'er continued to recruit people outside, there was a table at his door, people were sitting at the table, and the recruitment announcement was posted on the wall behind him.

After a while, a lot of people gathered, and the door of the inn gradually became lively.

Life still has to go on.

After all, there is no feast in the world.

On the other side, Liang Qiuqiu quickly followed the progress of the team, and she kept her distance carefully. In the blink of an eye, at night, in the wilderness, the people of the Gushan faction set up tents.

Liang Qiuqiu leaned against a big tree, and she took out the cold baked cake from her arms, which she specially bought when she passed through the town.

She still has a purse given to her by her mother-in-law around her waist, which contains a lot of silver taels, and it is estimated that she will eat enough for a year if she is frugal!

She calculated, if she didn't want to startle the snake, just go quietly to the past, even if the boundary of the Demon Domain was far away, it would be impossible to walk for a year, right?

Liang Qiuqiu took a bite of the baked cake, which was a little hard, but because he was really tired from walking all day, he felt so delicious when he chewed the cold baked cake.

She finished a biscuit, took a few more sips of water, and after putting down the kettle, she clasped her hands on her knees and wanted to take a nap.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps behind him.

Liang Qiuqiu hurriedly stood up, and she found that it was a disciple of the Gushan Sect.

The person who came was a young man, and when he saw Liang Qiuqiu, he arched his hand and said, "Girl, Lord Gray Luo asked me to arrange a place for you to live." ”

"Huh?"

"Please follow me. ”

Liang Qiuqiu looked at the people and horses of the brigade in the distance, it turned out that she was following behind, and Lord Gray Luo already knew about it...... He was kind enough to find her a place to sleep, was this a tacit acquiescence to her behavior?

Liang Qiuqiu followed the boy to a tent, although it was very simple, it was better than sleeping in the woods.

Liang Qiuqiu said thank you to him, and the young man smiled and left.

She slipped into the little tent, which was only big enough for one or two people, and she lay in a comfortable bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

She probably stayed up until the second half of the night with her eyes open, and she gradually became sleepy.

In the dead of night, everyone except for the night watchman fell asleep.

Liang Qiuqiu finally fell asleep.

This time, she slept soundly......

Faintly, she heard the elegant sound of the piano, like mountains and flowing water, crisp and pleasant.

When Liang Qiuqiu opened her eyes, she found herself lying in a flower bush, and directly in front of her, a man was sitting with his back to the peach blossom tree.

The sound of the piano seemed to come from between his fingers.

He was wearing a black cloak with a hat on his head, and Liang Qiuqiu couldn't see him at all behind him.

She slowly excused herself and went around to the other side of the peach tree, where the wind blew softly, and the hem of the man's clothes rose and fell slightly.

He bowed his head, his broad hat obscuring all his countenance, and the beautiful music flowed from under his fingertips, as if he had become one with the sound.

For some reason, Liang Qiuqiu didn't dare to interrupt him.

She looked at the surrounding scenery, the boundless peach blossom forest, the falling flowers were colorful, like a fairyland.

And although the man in front of him was dressed strangely, there was not the slightest trace of evil on his body. At the end of the song, he put the guqin on his knee on the ground and took off his black hat with his hands.

He sat under the peach tree, and his smile was better than the peach blossoms: "Qiuqiu, do you miss me?"

Liang Qiuqiu was stunned, she didn't expect a man to appear at all, his short black hair was blown by the wind, and the face that had been engraved in her heart was as delicate and charming as ever.

He is like spring, but warmer than spring, and he is like a peach blossom, but more gorgeous than a peach blossom.

"President's ......"

She took two steps forward, a little hesitant...... No, why is the president here?

Dongfang Mo stood up from the ground, he opened his arms to Liang Qiuqiu, and there was a gentle smile on his face: "Qiuqiu, come to me." ”

“……”

In this kind of situation, if it were someone else, she would definitely be extremely vigilant -- but who let this person be the president! Her reason was almost all gone, and Liang Qiuqiu didn't care about anything, so she raised her legs and ran towards the man.

She threw herself into his arms.

Hugging him hard, Liang Qiuqiu pressed his face against his chest, and his heartbeat could be heard at such a close distance.

Dongfang Mo hugged her back, and he smiled: "I finally saw you." ”

President...... Why are you here?"

"Because you miss me. ”

"What do you mean?" Liang Qiuqiu raised his head and looked up at the man in front of him: "You really came to this world...... Still is...... Is this qiē all a dream?"

He smiled slightly, but did not reply.

Liang Qiuqiu looked at the scenery around her, this was very different from the wilderness where she slept last night, this should be ...... It's a dream, right?

Could it be because she misses the president too much, so she dreams of him.

Because it's in a dream, the scenery is so pleasant.
