It snowed heavily on Changbai Mountain, and the whole world was covered with snow.

Whether it is the mountains in the distance or the pines in the near distance, they are piled up with thick snow, and snowflakes are still floating all over the sky.

At this time, Yin Lingyue was holding the stove, sitting by the window boredly, counting the fluttering snowflakes.

Her body was wrapped in a thick quilt, and the whole person looked much clumsy, but she still felt so cold.

The winter in Changbai Mountain is always so cold, no matter how long she lives here, she will never be able to adapt to such cold.

Every time at this time, she will miss the Mingyuan Valley that is like spring all year round.

Now, a year has passed since she left Mingyuan Valley, and she left in such a hurry, there are too many parting words before it is too late, there are too many charming scenes that have not had time to see, for Yin Lingyue, it is false to say that she has no regrets.

It had been two years since she entered the Ming Yuan Valley when she was fifteen years old, and now, she was seventeen years old, a full seventeen years old.

The year of living in Mingyuan Valley was too good, so beautiful that she often suspected that it was just a dream she had, only the piece of jade that Xiao Yuan gave her reminded her all the time that those good times in Mingyuan Valley were real.

Yin Lingyue stroked the jade pendant on her chest, feeling every line on the jade pendant.

Hearing only a creak, the door of Yin Lingyue's room was pushed open, and a middle-aged man of forty-five or sixteen approached.

The man's facial features are Zhouzheng, his appearance is beautiful, his body is tall, and his body is tough, it can be seen that when he was young, he was also a first-class beautiful man, he was Yin Lingyue's master Ling Jiyan, and now the head of the Imperial Sword Sect.

"Yue'er, what do you want? So fascinating. ”

The master's voice is always so powerful and full of power.

"I didn't think about anything, I was just in a daze, why did Master come?" Yin Lingyue tightened the quilt on her body and shrunk inside, "Oh my God, this terrible weather, if it continues to be so cold, Yue'er will be frozen to death." ”

"Where will freeze to death, Master won't feel cold, I think Yue'er is usually lazy and neglects to practice, otherwise now, you can use internal force to keep warm."

"Master knows how to bully Yue'er." Yin Lingyue said with disgust.

"Yue'er, you never mentioned it to your teacher, where did you go that year? What happened to you? ”

Yin Lingyue was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses, obviously not expecting Master to ask this question.

"It's nothing, it's just going down the mountain to play, and then I got lost, and I couldn't find my way back, so I just wandered outside."

Ling Jiyan knew that Yin Lingyue was perfunctory to him, she was brought up by him since she was a child, she never looked at him when she lied, and when Yin Lingyue spoke just now, she didn't look at him directly, her eyes flickered.

He knew what Yin Lingyue must have experienced that year, but she didn't want to say it, and he couldn't force it.

"Yue'er, no matter what happens, you have to remember that Master is your relative and someone you can trust and rely on."

"I know, Master is the best."

Yin Lingyue threw herself into Ling Jiyan's arms, her flushed little face rubbing against her master's chest.

Master's embrace was still as warm and wide as it was when he was a child.

I'm sorry, Master, about everything about Mingyuan Valley, Yue'er can't say, Yue'er swore an oath.

Yin Lingyue muttered in her heart.

Master stretched out his hand and gently stroked her head, his eyes full of doting.

At this time, a seventeen-year-old boy suddenly broke in, and his face turned red for a moment after seeing Ling Ji's face.

Why didn't anyone tell him, the head was also there, and his frizzy appearance was looked at by the head of the house, ah, the image he had built up with great difficulty! The boy shouted in his heart.

"Lu! Treasure! Celebrate! Don't you knock before you enter? It scared me. ”

Yin Lingyue almost roared, but the young man ignored her and saluted Ling Jiyan.

"See the head."

"Xiaoqing doesn't have to be polite, Feng'er is back?" Ling Jiyan got up and helped up the young man on the ground, the young man's name was Lu Qing, nicknamed Bao'er, and he was Yin Lingyue's senior brother Shao Zifeng's subordinate.

"The son is about to arrive, it is Lu Qing who is anxious, so he ran over to inform the head first."

Lu Qing said respectfully, I haven't seen him for two years, Lu Qing has grown taller all of a sudden, a head taller than Yin Lingyue, and he is not as immature as he was at the beginning, two years of experience have made the young man's body stronger than before, and his skin is darker than before, but his temperament is still lively and active.

"Senior brother is coming back? I'm going to meet my brother. ”

Yin Lingyue jumped off the couch with a "whoosh" and grabbed Lu Qing's hand excitedly.

"Eh, I said Xiao Yue'er, why are you still so violent after not seeing you for two years? Let's see how you get married in the future! ”

Lu Qing pretended to be disgusted and wanted to take Yin Lingyue's hand away from his body, but he didn't use all his strength.

Time may erase many things, but it can't erase the friendship between them, and after two years of not seeing each other, they are still as cordial as ever.

Yin Lingyue let go of Lu Qing and hurriedly ran out, she hadn't seen her senior brother for two years, and she was both expectant and apprehensive.

She stood on the tuyere shivering, and from time to time she was bouncing in place to keep warm.

"I should have put on my cloak and come out again, but now it's okay, I'm almost freezing to death!"

Yin Lingyue muttered to herself alone.

"Who is Yue'er talking to?"

"Senior brother, it's senior brother! Senior brother, I miss you so much! ”

Yin Lingyue threw herself directly into Shao Zifeng's arms, hugged his waist, and screamed excitedly.

"I haven't seen her for two years, Yue'er is still so naughty and mischievous, and she doesn't have the reserve that a child should have."

There was no reproach in the senior brother's words, but full of helplessness and spoiling.

At this time, Yin Lingyue suddenly realized something, and jumped away from Shao Zifeng's arms as if she was flying, she almost forgot that they had all grown up, and they could no longer do whatever they wanted like when they were children, the senior brother would start a family, marry another woman, and have another family. Even if they are brothers and sisters, they should abide by the boundaries that men and women should have.

The arms were suddenly empty, Shao Zifeng frowned uncomfortably, but said nothing. He stretched out his hand to comb Yin Lingyue's messy hair, but Yin Lingyue avoided him.

"When did Yue'er also break up with her senior brother?" Shao Zifeng said with an embarrassed smile.

"No, senior brother, Yue'er has grown up and can take care of these things by herself."

"Yue'er, is this a troublesome senior brother?" Shao Zifeng said half-jokingly.

"Senior brother knows I didn't mean that, it's just, it's just ......"

Yin Lingyue didn't know what to say.

"I see. I didn't expect that after two years of not seeing each other, Yue'er became more and more beautiful. ”

"Really?" Yin Lingyue's face turned red all of a sudden.

"Well, really, Yue'er is the most beautiful girl my brother has ever seen."

"What has Senior Brother been doing in the past two years? I've been back for more than a year, and I haven't seen my brother. ”

"At first, of course, it was to find you unconscious little girl! Later, I received a letter from the master saying that you had returned to Changbai Mountain safely, and I wanted to go back to the mountain immediately, but something happened outside that I needed to deal with, so it was delayed. ”

Shao Zifeng looked at Yin Lingyue's trembling appearance, took off his coat and draped it over her, and said, "Yue'er, it's cold outside, let's talk while walking." ”

Yin Lingyue rubbed her red nose and nodded heavily.
