After Yun Xiaoyao took Hua Jiu to leave Xingma Town, he found an inn, planning to stay overnight and set off again tomorrow, because Beikey Mountain is still half a day's journey away, and he won't be able to get there for a while.

The Central Plains is different from the Western Regions, there are many cities, counties and water towns in the Central Plains, and each place is scattered relatively openly, and the topographic division of the Central Plains is very chaotic, which often makes people confused about the southeast, northwest, and northwest. In comparison, the Western Regions is obviously very simple in structure, and is divided into only four cities.

As for North Key Mountain, it is not actually a mountain called North Key, to be exact, it is a pavilion that sits on top of a mountain. Every year, literati and scholars come to this pavilion to play the piano and talk about painting, or to drink tea and play chess.

Beikey Mountain is located in the lower reaches of the capital, relatively close to the fishing village, and then go to the front, it is the road to Yan'an.

At night, Hua Jiu tossed and turned in the inn and couldn't sleep, thinking about what he would say to Yucheng An after meeting her, on the other hand, she was also afraid to hear answers that she didn't want to hear.

At the same time, somewhere in the Valley of Ten Thousand Souls, a certain sect leader was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, according to Qi Yinglai, Hua Jiu was staying with Yun Xiaoyao at this time, although he was no longer worried about her safety, but he was worried that she had been so close to other men for a few days.

So, after all the struggle, he decided to go over and see what the woman was doing.

It was really a sleepless night, at this time, Hua Jiu put his hands behind his head, lying on the roof of the inn, looking at the moon in the sky in a daze without blinking, and his thoughts didn't know where to drift, in short, he was in a fugue state.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed beside her, and she was startled, and hurriedly sat up, only then did she come back to her senses.

Then she saw a man in a black robe sitting down beside her, his black hair slightly flared behind him, and a pair of boots carved with red trim on his feet. In the moonlight, his profile is delicate and picturesque, like an ingenious statue, and all parts are three-dimensional.

Hua Jiu looked at the man in a daze, and then slowly shouted: "Sect Master......"

"Why don't you go back to the house and sleep? It's so cold outside. Lou Xiaoyue asked.

His eyes didn't look at her, but at the sky, as if he was still feeling guilty about what had happened that day.

That day, somehow, he couldn't help but want to hug her, and later in order to hide his embarrassment, he said that sentence to her, but she didn't expect her to mistake him for him teasing her.

He also thought that she would not pay attention to him after this.

And Hua Jiu is the same, she still cares a little about the events of that day, when she said, 'I hate you the most', and now she regrets it a little.

At this time, in the face of Lou Xiaoyue's question, she also became slumped.

"I can't sleep......"

"Going to North Key Mountain?" Lou Xiaoyue asked again.

"En......"

"For Duan Jinkong?"

"Do you know where my master is?"

Hearing him ask, Hua Jiu was startled and looked at him anxiously, his eyes full of earnestness and expectation.

Who knew that Lou Xiaoyue shook her head, "I don't know." ”

"How could you not know?" However, she didn't believe it, and her instinct was that he deliberately didn't let her know.

Lou Xiaoyue didn't answer, but suddenly lay down and remained silent, seeing this, Hua Jiu also lay down.

The surroundings suddenly became much quieter, and both of them looked up at the full moon in the sky, each thinking about it.

I don't know how long it took before Lou Xiaoyue spoke again: "Do you know what the essential characteristics of people are? ”

His voice was slightly hoarse, echoing in the silent night sky.

Hua Jiu turned his head to look at him, then thought about it and replied, "Have you eaten?" 3 meals a day? ”

Lou Xiaoyue smiled and replied, "No." ”

After listening, Hua Jiu continued to guess: "That's ...... Grilled chicken? I don't think there's anyone who doesn't like to eat it. ”

"What's on your mind besides eating?" Lou Xiaoyue was very helpless about her answer, and after seeing that she was silent, he asked again: "Do you like roast chicken?" ”

"Yes!" When she heard the word 'roast chicken', she nodded vigorously.

Ran Lou Xiaoyue began to discuss this issue with her.

"Would you be happy if you were given a roast chicken every day?"

"Happy." Hua Jiu nodded.

"What about ten a day?" He asked again.

"Ten? Too much to eat......"

"Do you get tired of eating?"

In fact, Hua Jiu also struggled with the question of whether to eat roast chicken or not, because she didn't eat roast chicken every day, so she didn't try it.

So she thought about this question for a long time, and then she said to Lou Xiaoyue seriously: "If it's something you like, you won't get tired of it." ”

Lou Xiaoyue nodded, he was very satisfied with her answer, just as he wanted to see her all the time, even if he didn't leave an inch, he didn't think he would get tired of it.

"So many questions...... What does this have to do with the nature of human beings? Hua Jiu saw that he didn't speak, so he asked.

"There's a lot to do with it." Lou Xiaoyue replied, "If you are given chicken once a month, then the real feeling in your heart at that time is the essence of human beings." ”

"You can only eat it once a month...... Hua Jiu was confused when she heard this, and then her mind began to quickly try to imagine the scene of eating roast chicken once a month, and touching her chin while thinking about her, it should be a very brain-draining problem.

So after a long time, she said uncertainly: "Eating it once a month will suffocate me, it's not enough......"

"Yes, that's the kind of dissatisfaction." Lou Xiaoyue nodded.

Hua Jiu suddenly realized, "So human nature is not satisfied!" ”

"If this dissatisfaction is amplified a little more, it is greed." He continued.

Yes, everyone has a heart that is not easy to satisfy, maybe he didn't want anything at first, but when someone gave him a hint of sweetness, he tasted it. He was used to the taste, but if one day, no one gave him this sweetness, he would not get used to it, and his heart began to crave it, and it began to slowly expand.

In the end, his greedy nature was revealed.

Of course, everyone's pursuit is different, just like Hua Jiu, her greed is just a roast chicken.

The sky gradually became hazy, it turned out that layers of clouds and mist attacked, at this time, the bright moon was half obscured, and in an instant, the moonlight also became a little darker?

Hua Jiu hadn't rested much in the past few days, so she saw that she had fallen asleep without any sense of prevention, she should have really fallen asleep, and she seemed to be very tired.

Lou Xiaoyue stared at her sleeping face for a long time, and suddenly his face became a little heavy, then he got up and picked her up, and then went down to the roof and came to her room. Then he gently laid her on the couch and covered her with the quilt before turning away. (To be continued.) )
