Li Guogong looked at his grandson a little stunned, and did not speak for a long time.

Li Duan finished talking for a long time before he heard Li Guogong slowly speak, "You kid······ It's really grown up. ”

For some reason, for the first time, he saw a light in his grandson's eyes, as if the past had not darkened his eyes in the slightest, and the gaze was as clear as a new life.

Li Jian smiled when he heard this, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.

"But you don't know, for the first time, I hid from her and lied to her for this matter. I guess she's going to be very sad, and I'm guessing she's helpless and sad to be alone at the moment. But in order to give her real stability in the future, I chose to do so. I'm also afraid that she will blame me, and I'm afraid that she will be hurt by me and then disappointed in me, and I'm also afraid that ······"

Li Duan spoke, and his voice gradually faded.

Li Guogong let out a long sigh and said, "You deserve it." ”

Li Duan smiled, "Yes, you deserve it." ”

When the words fell, the two looked at each other and fell silent.

The night breeze is cool in winter, and the chill is even worse when you are near the lake.

I don't know how long I walked, and when I walked to the shore of Cuixin Lake, Lu Guanlan only felt that the fingers carrying the lotus lantern outside were already a little stiff from the cold.

There were also people who cruised the lake on the painting boat this night, but there were no extra boats on the lakeside.

There is a small bridge by the lake, and the bluestone steps under the bridge extend into the lake.

Lu Guanlan stretched out his other hand to lift the hem of his jacket and skirt, and slowly walked down the bluestone steps.

When she reached the last stone staircase, she stood still and looked towards the lake.

A cool breeze blew in, blowing the green silk on Lu Guanlan's sideburns.

She reached out and stroked her messy hair, and sighed faintly.

At this time, the lotus lantern and candle in his hand flickered, as if it was about to be extinguished.

She quickly stretched out her hand to protect the lantern, and when she saw that the candle flame was no longer flickering, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly squatted down and approached the edge of the lake, and the lantern in her hand slowly moved towards the water.

At this time, her heart was as calm as this cold lake, and there was no ripple at all.

She suddenly remembered what she said at the beginning of today, saying that although this lotus lantern was given to the deceased in Dacheng, it was given to her sweetheart who was far away in Dayu.

She didn't know why, but she bought this lotus lantern today.

It seems that she is about to believe that Li Duan is really no longer in this world.

But when she heard the first words, she felt that the hope in her heart was faintly ignited again.

Just as I was thinking, a gust of wind blew again.

The lotus lantern in the water swayed gently in the wind, and then slowly drifted away with the flowing water.

She watched a little distractedly, quietly staring at the lotus lamp as it faded away.

For no reason, she felt that she had failed in her life.

Li Duan is still dead, not dying on the battlefield like in the previous life, but dying for no reason like this.

His death was naturally strange, but now she couldn't guess why he died and who the murderer was behind it.

If it was Chengye, why didn't he do it earlier, or let Li die on the battlefield like in the previous life.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

Could it be that because of her changes in this life, all this has been advanced.

Chengye's plan was advanced, and Li Duan's death was also advanced. And these advances have all become unexpected for her?

She jerked to her feet, wanting to meet someone and ask for something.

Just as he was turning around, his feet suddenly slipped, as if he had stepped on moss.

The body also leaned back uncontrollably.

Her eyes widened, but she suddenly thought to herself, should she go with him too?

She hadn't found out the real culprit for him, hadn't been able to avenge him and herself, was she going to die like this?

A burst of thought flashed through my heart, accompanied by the thought in my heart, and I fell into the water with a "plop" sound.

The water of the lake was cold, and it poured violently into her mouth and nose.

Her body was a little stiff, and she wanted to swing her legs to swim up, but she felt that her feet seemed to be a little weak.

The moment she fell into the water, she couldn't hold her breath, and poured a large mouthful of water into her mouth, choking her brain a little dazed.

Really······ That's how you want to die?

At this time, I heard the sound of falling water again.

Then, I felt that my waist was hugged by a pair of hands, and then my body also floated upward.

She didn't give up struggling, and with the strength of the person next to her, she swung her legs hard and followed suit.

Finally, when she surfaced, she breathed heavily, but she still felt like she couldn't open her eyes.

At this time, I heard a voice in my ear: "It's good that you're not dead." ”

Immediately afterwards, he was lifted up the stone steps by the person next to him.

It was only after climbing the stone steps that she finally saw what was in front of her.

In the night, someone dressed in frost blue brocade clothes was also climbing up the stone steps at this moment.

She hurriedly moved back, giving up a piece of land so that people could come ashore.

When the man also climbed up, he saw him raise his head to look at Lu Guanlan and smile slightly.

Lu Guanlan was stunned.

The man in front of him had a green silk sticking to his forehead because of the wet water, and there was a beautiful cinnabar mole in the center of his eyebrows.

At this time, his well-defined jaw was dripping with water, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked at him, and his lips were red as if they were dyed with a touch of rose.

She looked a little crazy.

This man was the most stunning person she had ever seen in her previous life and even in this life.

And such a stunning appearance is still a man.

"What are you doing?" Suddenly, the man spoke.

Lu Guanlan reacted at this time, and quickly got up and bowed slightly apologetically to the visitor, "Thank you Gongzi for saving me." ”

The man smiled again, his red lips and white teeth were particularly bewildering.

"So, you're not looking for death?" The man laughed.

Lu Guanlan was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "If your feet slip, you are not careful." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but sneeze, only to feel a chill on his body.

Seeing this, the man pointed to the bridge behind him and said, "My carriage is on top, and there is a kettle in it, if you don't dislike it, you will come with me to warm up your body and then go?" ”

Lu Guanlan wanted to refuse, but as soon as she took two steps back, another gust of wind blew and made her tremble.

Helpless, I had to bow my head and say: "Then it's bothering." ”

The man didn't say a word, just crossed Lu Guanlan's side and walked towards the carriage by the bridge on the stone steps.

There was no coachman beside the carriage, and the man stepped onto the carriage with long legs, lifted the curtain and stretched out his hand to Lu Guanlan, "Come up." ”

Lu Guanlan tried his best to hold back the chills and tremors all over his body, but he didn't stretch out his hand, just smiled politely, and jumped into the carriage.

The interior of the carriage was indeed warm and spacious, and even the walls were padded.

After entering the carriage, the man picked up the kettle from the low table in the car and handed it to Lu Guanlan.

Lu Guanlan took it with his head in his hand, and when he held it in the palm of his hand, he felt that the warmth suddenly spread throughout his body.

Seeing that Lu Guanlan's face was still pale, the man took out a small blanket from a small cabinet behind him and draped it over Lu Guanlan's shoulders.

Lu Guanlan bowed his head towards the man with some gratitude, and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”

The man also smiled slightly, and his smile was particularly dazzling in the light of the lights in the carriage.

Lu Guanlan suddenly sighed with emotion, is there really such a beautiful man in this world?

But in front of people, she really had to believe it.

For no reason, she was a little embarrassed, and she didn't dare to meet the gaze of the man in front of her, so she didn't turn her head.

The inside of the carriage is very spacious, and from the outside it looks a little larger than the ordinary carriage, but when you look inside, you can see that the carriage is actually full of organs.

The lights and candles are covered with glass, the car is also covered with good brocade cushions, and there are even small tables and cabinets in the car, as if they are at home.

The man noticed Lu Guanlan's somewhat amazed and envious gaze, and said with a smile: "Why, you Dacheng don't have such a carriage?" ”

Lu Guanlan turned his head when he heard this, and saw that the man was looking at him with a smile on his face, and the brilliance in his eyes was both precipitated and public, so contradictory but so deep.

Lu Guanlan lowered his eyes, "I'm just a small family, and I've never seen such a world." ”

The man chuckled and said, "Is it really a small family?" ”

Lu Guanlan lowered his eyes and was silent.

The man's gaze suddenly flashed with a cold light, but it was only for a moment and then disappeared, as if he had never had such a look.

"I just don't know, why did you come to the lake at night from your little girl's house? I thought you were looking for death, but then you said no, so could it be that you can brave the cold wind to enjoy the lakeside scenery? Seeing that Lu Guanlan was silent, the man said again.

Lu Guanlan raised his eyes when he heard this, "If Gongzi thought I was looking for death, then why did he save me?" ”

Seeing a trace of doubt in Lu Guanlan's eyes, the man said: "Saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, whether you are looking for death or not, and what you are looking for, it has nothing to do with me." I want to save you, but I want to accumulate virtue and do good. ”

Lu Guanlan was a little speechless.

She didn't think much about it just now, but after she calmed down, she felt a little strange.

Then he said, "Then why did the boy come to this lake?" ”

When the man heard Lu Guanlan ask like this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "You haven't answered me yet." ”

Lu Guanlan frowned, "I have already told my son that I accidentally fell into the water." ”

The man didn't relent: "I asked you what you came for, I didn't ask how you fell into the water." ”

As the words fell, there was a sudden silence in the carriage.

In this way, the atmosphere was strangely silent for a long time, only to see Lu Guanlan sigh and say, "Put the lanterns." ”

The man's eyebrows were slightly raised, his head tilted, his wet hair was attached to his fair face, and his eyes looked at Lu Guanlan with interest with a hint of inquiry, "Flower lanterns? ”

Lu Guanlan nodded, "Lotus lantern." ”

The man's face was slightly stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered, and said, "To my sweetheart?" ”

Lu Guanlan wanted to shake his head and explain the use of the lotus lamp in Dacheng, but when he thought of Chu Yu's words, he was stunned and nodded slowly, "Yes, for my sweetheart." ”

After that, I felt that there was something wrong.

This man kept saying "you are a great success", and now that he heard about the lotus lantern, the first thing he said was for his sweetheart.

Could it be that this man is a person from Dayu?
