39. Chapter 39

Thousands of lights, thousands of trees, fireworks in the world.

Countless men and women, some are lovers who are happy with each other, some are newlywed couples, and there are families with wives and children, and the father carries the child on his shoulder, bustling, passing by them. Xu Jing protected Ji Tang with his uninjured hand and prevented her from being bumped by the crowd, but Ji Tang carefully protected Xu Jing's injured hand.

The two looked as if they were half-hugging each other.

The crowd surged, and Ji Tang was squeezed into Xu Jing's arms from time to time. She didn't notice it at first, but after more times, she became a little annoyed, bit her lip and said, "Why don't you say it, the lantern will be like this." If we had known that, we wouldn't have come. ”

Xu Jing blinked innocently, "How do I know that there are so many people?" ”

But Ji Tang felt that he just knew.

She snorted softly and stopped talking.

Xu Jing hurriedly diverted her attention, looked around, pointed to a small stall with rings, and said with a smile: "Master, you see there is a little flower cat pinched with clay porcelain, can I bring it back for you?" Ji Tang gently pinched his arm and decisively refused: "Don't." You're still hurt, don't be reckless. ”

"Hey, even if I break both hands, it won't be a bother to put on a gadget." He was an orphan who grew up on the streets, and nothing he could be deceived or stolen to get a fortune could not be bothered. As he spoke, he took Ji Tang's hand and squeezed away the crowd with his shoulder.

Ji Tang didn't want to hold him, but he couldn't bear to let his outstretched hand freeze in mid-air, embarrassed. Just hesitated, he was already clasped by his ten fingers, and if he wanted to get rid of it, he would inevitably be in a bad mood, so he went with him.

The two are intimate and affectionate like little lovers, handsome men and pretty women, which is very attention-grabbing. Even the stall owner sitting next to him looked at them with a smile several times.

"Childe, the position of that flower cat is too biased, and it is very difficult to trick it, so you better change it." The stall owner saw that Xu Jing wanted to set clay porcelain, and couldn't help but remind him kindly. Ji Tang tugged at Xu Jing's sleeve, shook his hand at him, and motioned for him to give up, "Actually...... I'm not a big fan of cats either. ”

Xu Jing didn't believe it. When they first met, she asked him if he had seen a tanuki named Miao. He thought for a long time, and when he shook his head, he clearly saw the loss in her eyes. That cat must be important to her, he thought.

He took out a copper plate, slapped it on the desk, and said, "Let's make a circle." ”

The stall owner was surprised and asked, "You only need a circle?" ”

"One circle" Xu Jing's uninjured left hand raised an index finger, and his eyes were bent into crescents, "It's enough." He took the small bamboo ring with the large mouth of the bowl, aimed at the declination, and threw it gently. The little ring flew lightly towards the clay porcelain kitten as if it had wings, and with a "click" sound, it landed on the kitten's neck.

The stall owner touched the back of his head and sighed, "It's really godly." "From picking up the clay porcelain, hand it over to Xu Jing. He was afraid that this son would suffer a loss, but now he is only worried that he will not leave and wipe out all the gadgets in his stall.

Xu Jing knew his thoughts, but he deliberately dragged out his voice and asked Ji Tang: "Master, do you want anything else?" ”

The stall owner's face immediately turned bitter.

Ji Tang couldn't see it, bent his fingers to his lips, and said with a chuckle: "Don't do it, let's go." He took the mud cat handed by Xu Jing, the size was just pinched in the palm of his hand, and his thumb rubbed the rough cat ears. Xu Jing saw her happy, and his heart was also happy, and said, "Yes! There must be better ahead, Master, if you have another fancy to you, I will give it all to you! ”

She's not a child, what are she doing with so many gadgets?

Ji Tang was dragged forward by him, and vaguely heard the stall owner behind him sighing, "Young people now, one master and apprentice, it's really ......" She was so ashamed that her cheeks were hot, but looking at Xu Jing's tall and slender back, her heart was warm-

The two walked along the crowd and unconsciously arrived under the immortal tree. Countless shades of red paper, tied to strings, fluttered slightly in the wind. Some of them are very old, and they have faded to pink and white after being blown by wind and rain, and most of them hang on the branches below.

Xu Jing was long, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a brittle white piece of paper, the handwriting on it was blurred, and it was vaguely visible that under the two names, there was a sentence "Tonight, what night, see this beloved".

Tonight, what night, see this beloved. He looked down at Ji Tang's smiling face, stared at her slightly sideways to avoid it, wrinkled his nose and asked, "What's wrong?" Do I have something on my face? He nodded, "yes, don't move." The fingertip drew a line between her white and delicate lips, "I guess I just rubbed it on the candy man." ”

Ji Tang coughed twice, looked away embarrassedly, and pretended to look at the scenery.

"Master, let's go write one too, okay?"

"Not good."

"Go, it's coming."

She said ashamedly: "How many times have I told you, it's all a deception from the temple!" You don't believe me, what do you believe in him? ”

The black hair was pressed against his pale cheeks, and in a pair of eyes as black as stars, there was a gloom and melancholy like scales. He pursed his thin lips lightly and whispered, "I know it's a lie." Since it's fake, you're lying to me, can't you? Or, she wouldn't even tell him a nice lie.

For him, there is no system, there is no reincarnation. Every time I love her, it's an unforgettable restart.

Ji Tang bit his lower lip and was silent for a long time, but finally took his hand.

"Let's go, aren't you going to write?"

His lost expression brightened up in an instant, as if the moon was rising, and the brilliance burst out. That kind of sincere joy cannot be faked, the corners of his lips were upturned, his face was bright, and he immediately held her in his arms, turned his feet off the ground twice, and shouted, "Master! Master! ”

Ji Tang was a little shorter than him, and at this time, he was lifted up by his whole person, and he had to support his shoulders with his elbows. Looking around, or surprised, or kind, or ambiguous eyes, embarrassed so much that I wanted to find a hole in the ground immediately, "You let me down!" ”

"Don't let it go!"

"Put me down! I'll count three, one, two, ......"

"Three!" Xu Jing quickly found her lips, pecked them three times in a row, and took advantage of Ji Tang's distraction, buried his face in her white and greasy neck, took a deep breath, and muttered, "Master, I'm really happy." ”

Ji Tang now only regrets that he didn't learn the Xuantian Sect's Escape Technique. However, she seems to have inadvertently mastered the legendary soul separation technique - the soul has been out of her body for most of the day, and when she came back to her senses, she had already signed her name on the red paper, but she didn't see what Xu Jing had attached to the back of their names.

"What did you write in the back?"

Xu Jing diverted the topic, "Master, look, there are people there who are putting lotus lanterns. ”

"Look me in the eye, you promised you wouldn't lie to me."

"Why don't we go put one too?" He hurried towards the river.

Ji Tang grabbed him, "You sue me first." ”

"Put the lotus lantern, and I will sue you." Xu Jing rubbed on the top of her head like a cat, "I promise." ”

She really couldn't help it, and watched him trot all the way to buy lotus lanterns. She stood by the river and waited for him, and saw countless pairs of young men and women, half-crouching on the water's edge. The delicate and delicate paper lamps float away with the flowing water, as if the stars are falling, and the young and happy faces are particularly moving.

Maybe in the eyes of passers-by, she and Xu Jing are also such a quiet scene-

"Senior brother."

Xu Jing went back to find Ji Tang after buying the lanterns, but he was patted on the shoulder from behind. When he turned around, he met Wei Changning's gentle face that was always smiling. His smile instantly cooled, and he bowed lightly: "Oh, it's you." ”

Wei Changning was holding a little rabbit lamp in his hand, and the dim light reflected on his still childish face, looking innocent and kind, "Changning thought that Senior Brother wouldn't go out." Did you come with Master? ”

Xu Jing didn't bother to pay attention to him, said "um", turned around and went to the river.

"Master and Senior Brother, they look very good. Walking on the street like this will inevitably lead to misunderstanding, so it is better to avoid suspicion. Wei Changning said slowly.

"What's the matter with you?" Xu Jing frowned and looked at him coldly.

Wei Changning's smile remained unchanged, but a pair of lovely round eyes gradually narrowed, revealing a bit of depth, "Changning just said casually, if the senior brother has a clear conscience, why rush to clear it up?" After a pause, he added, "Actually, Senior Brother doesn't like me very much, I could have been alone with the Master, but I just needed one more person to distract Master." ”

Xu Jing sensed that something was wrong.

"Originally, I am not the only son in the family, and I have a younger brother below." Wei Changning sighed lightly, "It's a pity that he died early, and he died at the age of three." My father and mother were so sad that they cried. ”

"Why are you talking to me about this? Let me cry with you? Xu Jing's long eyes flashed slightly.

Wei Changning smiled: "Naturally not. When my brother died, I didn't shed a single tear, let alone now. I just want to tell Senior Brother SΓΉ that I, like Senior Brother, hate people sharing my stuff the most. ”

"Your stuff?" Xu Jing sneered, as fast as lightning, and instantly grabbed his clothes, "Who is your thing?" Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now! ”

"I believe it, of course I do. In fact, the night my brother was injured, he originally wanted to kill me, right? But then, for some reason, I suddenly stopped. Wei Changning said regretfully, "If Senior Brother had done it at that time, it would have saved me a lot of effort." ”

Xu Jing said in a cool voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense if you don't have evidence. ”

"I'm not talking nonsense, senior brother knows it in his heart." Wei Changning attached to his ear and laughed softly, "As for the evidence...... Senior brother dare to gamble with me, does Master believe you or me? ”

Xu Jing stiffened.
