The spring breeze warms up, everything recovers, and the annual Lantern Festival will come as scheduled.
Luo Yinglin, Hualu Temple.
"Daddy~" Fengxue sat on the ground and hugged Fengshen's thighs, her big eyes stared at Fengshen with tears, these eyes, I felt pity, and people couldn't refuse, "Daddy~ I heard that the Lantern Festival lanterns in the city will look good, you just let Xue'er go~ Daddy~" Seeing that Fengshen was still hesitating, Fengxue transferred the coquettish object to Mrs. Bai, "Mother~" The daughter's delicate voice almost melted Mrs. Bai's heart, she picked up two purses that had been sewn up, one large and one small, and tied one around Fengshen's waist, One was recorded on Fengxue's waist, "Fengshen, Xue'er has never been out of this Luo Ying Forest since she was born, the Lantern Festival is lively, why don't you take Xue'er out to have fun and see the world!" "Thank you, Daddy, go out and have fun!" Before Fengxue could nod in agreement, Fengxue jumped back to the Frost and Snow Pavilion to pack his things and prepare to go. The wind god put his arm around Madame Bai and shook his head, looking doting. In addition to pursuing stability and peace in his life, he only hopes that Xue'er can have a worry-free life like this.
Fengxue was sitting on the couch, and her personal maid Ping'er was busy packing her bags. For Fengxue, who has never gone out, going to the secluded capital to watch the Lantern Festival is indeed a long trip. Feng Xue played with the purse around her waist, she really couldn't understand why her mother always embroidered snowflakes into frost flowers, maybe her mother's skills were not up to par, Feng Xue silently found an explanation for herself in her heart.
Xifu.
"Xi Jue!! Are you all right!! Xi Shuang knocked on his door outside Xi Jue's room, puffing out, "Get out of the door, slower than a woman." Xi Shuang walked back and forth in front of Xi Jue's door with his arms crossed, whether he knocked on his door.
Mu Zixian sat on the stone bench next to him, sipping tea, quietly looking at Xi Shuang, the corners of his mouth rising unconsciously. Today's Xi Shuang wears a blue pearl pompom glass hairpin, wears a plush white earring given by Xi Jue, and wears a blue mist skirt of Lan Yuan, and the mink velvet at the corners not only has the effect of keeping out the cold, but also can make people get rid of the tacky, which was designed by Mu Zixian himself. Xi Shuang's innate fairy spirit, under the backdrop of this clothes, is more and more fascinating.
With a "bang", Xi Jue wore a red robe, which made his face a little more charming, which was in stark contrast to Mu Zixian in a dark blue robe. Although this appearance cannot be distinguished, Mu Zixian's elegance and calmness are slightly better.
"Eh, why do you all wear blue? I'll go for it! "Xi Jue was about to go back to the house to change into blue clothes, but she was grabbed by Xi Shuang, she didn't want to wait for Xi Jue for another hour, let alone the Lantern Festival at that time, the daylily was cold." Our young master Xi Jue looks good in everything, and today we are here to line your red flower. Xi Shuang pretended to be flattering. This trick seemed to be very useful, and he nodded with satisfaction. Finally able to go out, Xi Shuang took a long breath, her eyes met with Mu Zixian, she smiled at Mu Zixian, looked away, and hurriedly followed Xi Jue.
As soon as he went out, he saw a carriage parked outside the door, and a red figure leaned out of the car. "Cousin~" As soon as the girl saw Mu Zixian, she rushed over regardless of her image, and only when she got to Mu Zixian did she comb the broken hair between her forehead. Xi Jue snorted coldly and pulled Xi Shuang away in disgust. "Brother Jue, are you going to marry your cousin of the Lu family today? You two are dressed too festively, aren't you? Xi Shuang couldn't help but tease Xi Jue, looking at him with sly eyes and a smile. Xi Jue flicked between Xi's foreheads as punishment. As soon as Xi Shuang wanted to fight back, he was attracted by the lion dance. Yudu is an inconspicuous small city, although it is only one word different from Kyoto, in fact, it is 108,000 miles away, usually deserted, and it is only during the New Year's holidays that there is a good liveliness. "Don't get lost!" Xi Jue followed Xi Shuang closely, for fear that she would get lost. Father and mother gave the waiter a holiday, so this trip, there was no little maid to follow, there was no way, he could only take on the heavy responsibility of protecting Xi Shuang.
One hand was on Xi Jue's shoulder, Xi Jue was about to give him an over-the-shoulder fall, but when he turned his head, it turned out to be Mu Zixian, and one hand was still being held by Lu Qiong. When Xi Jue turned around again, Xi Shuang disappeared. "Shuangshuang! Both!! Xi Jue anxiously opened the crowd and looked for Xi Shuang, but there was no trace of Xi Shuang in front of the lion dance stage. Brother Jue, don't worry! Mu Zixian chased after him, "Shuang'er will be fine!" Maybe I'm attracted by something new! Mu Zixian comforted Xi Jue on his lips, but his eyes were also full of anxiety.
That's right, Xi Shuang was indeed attracted to the place to guess the lantern riddle by the novelty. Her mind was all on the riddle, and she didn't realize that Xi Jue who was following behind her had long since disappeared. "The hardest thing to cook? Oh, I see! Xi Shuang excitedly wanted to reach out for the note with the lantern riddle written, but the seven-year-old was not tall enough to jump, "Really, why do you hang the lantern so high?!" People can't reach it, don't you know?! Xi Shuangbian complained while trying to reach the note, she was almost about to succeed, suddenly, a nightmarish hand took away the lantern riddle in front of her, Xi Shuanggang wanted to scold a few words, turned his head and found a young man in a moon white robe holding a lantern riddle, looking at her with a smile, the young man in front of him is a little better than Xi Jue and Mu Zixian, the temperament is different from Xi Jue's flamboyance, Mu Zixian's elegance is a little noble. But Xi Shuang's eyes only have lantern riddles, and the people who rob other people's lantern riddles talk about whether they are noble or not, they are just gentlemen.
"Hey this boy, this riddle is the first thing I took a fancy to." Xi Shuang stood on tiptoe and reached out to grab it.
"Oh? Is it? The young man raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked to the podium, leaving Xi Shuang to stomp his feet in anger on the spot.
Just as he was angry, a young man came over with a small wooden box, "This girl, a boy just asked me to give you this prize." Xi Shuang took the wooden box, and two clusters of red glow flew out of her face with shame, she misunderstood the boy before, and thought that he was grabbing the prize with herself. When the wooden box was opened, there was a jasper hairpin inside. "Brother Jue, do you see that I won-Xi Jue?!" Xi Shuang turned around and just wanted to share the results with Xi Jue, but found that there was a crowd behind him, but Xi Jue was nowhere to be seen. "Brother Jue! Where are you?! Xi Shuang held the wooden box, anxiously looking for Xi Jue, and unconsciously walked into a small alley.
"Little girl, find someone, my brother will take you to find it!" There was a flirtatious laughter behind him, and there was a chill behind Xi Shuang, not good, flower thief! Xi Shuang began to regret not learning martial arts with Xi Jue, but it was important to escape, so she hugged the wooden box tightly and ran away. But a little girl who has no power to restrain the chicken, how can she outrun a few big men, and soon, Xi Shuang's physical strength is exhausted.
The laughter behind her was terrifying, and Xi Shuang turned around to find that the three men were on their backs, so frightened that she sat on the ground. "Brother Jue!! Big Brother Wood!! Help me!!! Xi Shuang exerted his strength to breastfeed, and prayed silently in his heart, Brother Jue, Brother Mu, you must hurry up to save me! Otherwise...... Xi Shuang didn't dare to think that she wouldn't die tonight, right?
"Don't waste your efforts, just obey! The lights will be noisy, and no one will hear them! ”
"Big brother, you said this little girl, are we going to sell her to the Qinglou, or are we going to kill her?"
The men let out a sinister laugh, and Xi Shuang hugged herself tightly, tonight, she won't fall into the tiger's mouth! She doesn't want to enter Baihualou, and she doesn't want to lose her life!
The men gradually approached Xi Shuang, who quietly pinched the jasper hairpin in the box in his hand. The scarred man at the head pinched Xi Shuang's chin violently, and smiled lustfully, "The little girl is very handsome, but she can sell it for a good price." "Laughing is more ugly than crying, Xi Shuang twisted his face in disgust. Yo, I don't know what to do! The two men in the back took out the rope and prepared to tie Xi Shuang, "Ouch, hey! As soon as their hands touched Xi Shuang, they were stabbed by the hairpin.
Xi Shuang took advantage of the chaos, and as soon as he stood up and wanted to run, he was grabbed by the back collar by the scar man and picked it up. "Big brother, I was wrong, you spare me!" Xi Shuang's eyes blinked, pretending to be pitiful. "Hmph, it's late!" The scar man gave a knife to the dog at his feet who was loyal to him, and the dog instantly collapsed to the ground, he put the dagger against Xi Shuang's neck, his eyes were fierce, "If you don't follow us obediently, you will be the same as this dog!" "Xi Shuang's lip work is useless, and this is doomed. A few tears slipped down the corners of Xi Shuang's eyes, the frost between his foreheads flashed, and the scar man let go of Xi Shuang in an instant, covering his eyes, and Xi Shuang's ass fell to the ground.
That's right, he's blind, who made him see the frost flower. The other two men saw that their eldest brother was injured and angry, and they didn't believe it, and a few big men couldn't clean up a little girl. They rushed straight at Xi Shuang with their knives, and they were put down in an instant. Two shadow guards descended from the sky, frightening them to their knees and begging for mercy, "Uncle, spare your life! The little ones don't dare anymore! ”
"Don't get out of here!" The young man in the moon-white robe stepped out from behind the Shadow Guard, helped Xi Shuang up, and helped her pat off the dust off her body. "Are you alright?" The boy's tone became gentle and polite. "Thank you, I'm fine, and the riddle, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. This hairpin is given to you. Xi Shuang lowered his head, handed the hairpin to the young man, and grabbed the corner of his clothes apologetically. It's okay, by the way, what's your name? Where do you live? I'll send you home! A female ......"
"Shuangshuang!" Xi Jue suddenly appeared from the entrance of the alley, as well as Mu Zixian and Lu Qiong. Seeing Xi Shuang, Xi Jue excitedly ran forward and hugged Xi Shuang tightly, "I'm scared to death, Xi Shuang, don't run around in the future!" "Xi Jue is rarely serious. Xi Shuang hugged Xi Jue back, "Brother Jue, I promise, will you take me out to play in the future?" By the way, it was this boy who saved me. Xi Shuanggang wanted to introduce his life-saving benefactor to Xi Jue, but found that they had already left.
"Xi Shuang?" The young man sat in the carriage and stroked the jasper hairpin in his hand, and the corners of his mouth rose, "It turns out that your name is Xi Shuang." ”
"Master." Shadowguard didn't know what to say in the boy's ear, his smile faded, his brow furrowed, and he had a bit of maturity that he shouldn't have at his age......
The snowflakes between Feng Xue's forehead suddenly flashed, her heart beat faster, she uneasily pulled the corner of Feng Shen's clothes, and Feng Shen noticed that the snowflakes flashed on her daughter's forehead, and hurriedly took Feng Xue back to the inn. Fengshen was a little puzzled: why did the snowflakes on Xue'er's forehead suddenly appear?
