The Forever Pavilion seems to be forever stuck a thousand years ago. Time stands still and never leaves.

The last time Bai Mingqiu came was early spring, and now it was approaching summer, but the door of the Forever Pavilion was as quiet as ever.

Independent of the four seasons, transcendent in time. Stopping here, it's easy to meditate on eternity and ephemerality.

Seeing Bai Mingqiu standing at the door stunned, Emperor Inhata scratched his ears, walked into the door slowly, and found Lingxian.

"Lingxian Lingsen, that person is here."

"That person?"

"It's the human being that Lord Eight Meanings and Her Royal Highness the Princess are all familiar with! The name, I remember, seems to be called..."

"Bai Jun! Bai Jun is here? Ling Xian said happily, "Emperor? It's true? You didn't coax me? ”

Because Emperor Wan always likes to play tricks on Lingxian, Lingxian is often surprised by her deception, but she doesn't believe it at this time, maybe the emperor is teasing her.

The emperor pursed his lips: "Go quickly, you, he is still standing there stupidly, you may leave if you go late." ”

Reisen brushed her hair in a panic, put on her rabbit ears, and ran to the door.

"Bai Jun, I haven't seen you for a long time!" The joy in Reizen's words could not be hidden.

Bai Mingqiu's thoughts were interrupted, and he was stunned: "It's Lingxian." ”

"Hmm. Bai Jun, I haven't been here for a while. Lingxian pointed to the flower that Bai Mingqiu was carrying, "Is this for the princess?" ”

"yes, I haven't seen Princess Kaguya in a while, and I thought I'd bring her some greeting gifts."

Ling Xian took it casually, held it in his hand, and walked in with Bai Mingqiu.

"Speaking of the princess, Bai Jun, the princess has mentioned you many times recently, which shows why Qiu hasn't come yet, and he's about to suffocate or something." Reisen smiled, "Then he pestered me to talk about Haku-kun." The princess is thinking of Baijun. ”

Bai Mingqiu smiled slightly.

Penglai Mountain Huiye instructed that if Bai Mingqiu came, he didn't need to go to the main hall for entertaining guests, just take it directly to the side hall. The road to the side hall is not short, and with Lingxian leading the way, it seems that he walked slower intentionally or unintentionally, and the time became a little longer, and Lingxian and Bai Mingqiu naturally chatted.

"So, the emperor is really bad." Reisen finished telling how Emperor Inhata had played tricks on her, and concluded with a complaint.

"Ah, it's here."

The door of the side hall is the kind of simple wooden sliding door that Bai Mingqiu likes very much, it is not carved, but it has its own aura, such a door, it is a pleasure to push it open.

Lingxian opened the door for Bai Mingqiu, and Bayi Yonglin was already sitting inside.

This quaint healer, holding the bow in one hand and the string in the other, kneeling on the couch, was concentrating on the maintenance of the bow and arrows, and his demeanor was beautiful.

Hearing the sound, Bayi Yonglin raised his head and said with a smile, "It's Mr. Bai here." ”

"Doctor Bayi, I'm really sorry that I haven't come to see you for a long time." Bai Mingqiu bowed slightly.

Bayi Yonglin said: "It's okay, I've probably heard about the recent major events in Gensokyo, and Mr. Bai was caught up in it, so naturally he couldn't get out." ”

Bai Mingqiu sat down opposite Bayi Yonglin and said, "It's good that you can understand." ”

"Actually, Mr. Bai doesn't have to worry about me." Bayi Yonglin smiled, "But you have to talk to the princess, she has been talking about you a lot lately." ”

"Lingxian also mentioned it to me just now, and I'm worried about Princess Kaguya."

Bayi Yonglin instructed Lingxian who was standing on the side: "You Tanhua, pour tea for Mr. Bai." ”

"Yes."

Bai Mingqiu picked up the tea poured by Lingxian, and after a little look, the tea was clear, pale and elegant, and his heart was happy.

He tasted it for a while and said happily: "Good tea, this tea is different from the tea I drank when I came to visit last time, but the fragrance is clearer, the taste is more beautiful, and the choice of water is also different." ”

Bayi Yonglin said with a smile: "Mr. Bai is indeed a person in this way. I like to make some tea to pour myself when I have nothing to do, and this tea has no name, or Mr. Bai, you can take another one? ”

Obviously, Bayi Yonglin was joking with Bai Mingqiu, and the last time he named the tea "Eternity", it really impressed Bayi Yonglin.

Bai Mingqiu had no choice but to smile awkwardly.

Bayi Yonglin was talking to Bai Mingqiu, and the maintenance on his hands did not stop, and he was almost ready.

"Has Mr. Bai had breakfast?" She asked.

"I've already eaten it."

"Then I'll be casual, Yu Tanhua."

"Yes." Ling Xian bowed slightly and went out to help Bayi Yonglin get breakfast.

"The princess gets up late, if Mr. Bai doesn't dislike it, just wait a little longer." Bayi Yonglin said.

Bai Mingqiu said with a smile: "I've always had nothing to do, don't worry, Doctor Bayi is busy with your own." ”

"Oh yes." Bai Mingqiu remembered Huiyin's matter, "There is something I still need your help with, Huiyin wanted to borrow a book from you before, but I haven't had time to come in person, I happened to come today, so I will ask you to get it." ”

As he spoke, he took out the paper with the title of the book written on it from his bosom.

Bayi Yonglin glanced at it, nodded and said, "I'll ask You Tanhua to take it later, and Mr. Bai can take it with him when he leaves." ”

"Thank you."

Bayi Yonglin pursed his lips and smiled, but did not speak.

She stringed her bow, opened it with a little force, and let go with a crisp sound. She is very skillful in maintaining her bow, her skills are close to the Tao, and her every move has a special beauty. Bai Mingqiu enjoyed it while drinking tea, and it was very comfortable.

Ling Xian came up with two bowls of white porridge, brought a bowl to Bayi Yonglin, and then said, "Master, I want Bai Jun to taste the porridge of the Eternal Pavilion." ”

Bayi Yonglin looked at Ling Xian's little eyes, with a smile in her eyes, and motioned for her to serve it.

"Bai Jun, just taste a little, the porridge in the Eternal Pavilion is a little special." Reizen brought the bowl to Bai Mingqiu's table.

Looking at Ling Xian's eyes, Bai Mingqiu knew that this porridge was her proud work.

"Okay, since Reizen has said so." Bai Mingqiu smiled, picked up the small spoon and scooped it a little.

The taste of the porridge is a little sweet, and there is a faint aroma, which matches the slightly viscous taste of the porridge, making the bland and tasteless white porridge immediately become vibrant.

Bai Mingqiu felt that the taste was very familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was for a while, so he simply drank the porridge with Bayi Yonglin.

What exactly does it smell like?

He couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked, "Lingxian, this porridge..."

Bayi Yonglin smiled: "I can actually hide Mr. Bai's tongue, You Tanhua, it's good." ”

Ling Xian smiled embarrassedly and said, "Bai Jun, it's Osmanthus." ”

It turned out to be osmanthus.

Bai Mingqiu was stunned.

After coming to Gensokyo for so many days, he didn't find any osmanthus flowers. He hadn't smelled the fragrance of osmanthus for a long time, and he really forgot about it for a while.

Bayi Yonglin waved his hand, and the Pumu sliding door on the other side of the hall slowly opened, and outside was the courtyard of the Forever Pavilion.

Bai Mingqiu smelled a pungent fragrance first.

The dark fragrance fills the sleeves, refreshing people's hearts, Bai Mingqiu took a deep breath and felt refreshed.

There was a melodious voice in the ears of Bayi Yonglin.

"Just like only the sunflower field has sunflowers, in Gensokyo, there are only osmanthus flowers that will never wither."

Countless laurel trees swaying with flower branches, the pale yellow petals are shy and timid, bowing their heads and not speaking, but the aroma of the attack is condensed and not dispersed, the slight wind blows, and countless pale yellow elves are sprinkled one after another, like a dripping osmanthus rain.

Bai Mingqiu suddenly remembered a memory that had been sealed for a long time.

"Sister."

"Huh?"

"I'll be the hero of the world and come back to pick you up."

"Okay, sister knows."

"What if, what if I don't come back?"

"Then my sister will look for you, no matter where you are, my sister will find you back."

I remember that night, lying in Sister A's arms, Sister A was faintly scented with osmanthus.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Wood rhinoceros is another name for osmanthus.

A few days ago, the eye disease recurred, and I couldn't update it after a little rest, sorry.

There are two more today, released together, and chatting as compensation.
