?

Three months later.

That's right, everyone is wrong, the time is three months later...... Saying...... The author loves this kind of rush that has passed for many days in a flash......

In this long three-month period, our heartlake 'woman' has been tossing and turning and thinking about a question repeatedly.

That's ......*** Where did Qin Wuyan's 'bastard' go?!

After that day's festival, she hadn't seen Qin Wuyan again. The goods just disappeared from everyone's sight out of thin air. Lu Gushu comforted her, maybe the Demon Sect had an urgent matter temporarily, so he left.

However, without saying hello, he left, what is the matter? Moreover, he disappeared after she said such sensational and touching lines as 'I'm not leaving, you won't go, we'll be together well'.

Is this a halfway pick?

With this trapped 'confusion' in mind, she, Bai Hengzhi, and Ruan Zhishui finally left Baiyue Valley and embarked on the way back.

They returned to the Peak of Immortality.

Life is calm and quiet, Luo Ranchu cured Bai Hengzhi's eyes, and fortunately, he had to 'bother' to take care of the senior brother, so Xinhu's attention was not always in the unaware wonder about whether he was abandoned.

And the relationship between her and Bai Hengzhi has gradually entered a state of natural harmony.

The first thing he said to her when his eyes saw light again.

"In the future, I will protect you and take care of you, in any capacity."

His inky eyes, as bright as the morning star, were full of brilliance, which was his promise to her.

Xinhu couldn't speak for a long time, and everything was silent.

Except for the absence of the third junior brother and the addition of Ruan Zhishui, everything seems to have not changed, but it seems that everything has changed.

In front of Shimizu Temple.

Luo Ranchu wore a 'jade' and 'colored' gown, standing with his hands in his hands, at this time he turned his back to the heart lake, looked up at a tree that was luxuriant, his eyes were full of green, and the sun shone down through the gaps in the leaves, like fine gold, dazzling.

The wind blew his 'jade' and 'colored' robes, brought up his clothes and flew up, and the warm smell of pine and sandalwood mixed with his body made Xinhu can't help but sniff deeply, just like the taste in memory.

"Master, I'm going down the mountain to attend the martial arts conference." Xinhu said softly, but the words were not asking, but resignation after having made a decision.

She only made this decision today after receiving a flying pigeon from her junior brother Liu Jin and was ready to visit Biluo Villa.

Originally, the martial arts conference was held every four years, but because Yun Ruoyang became the new leader of the martial arts alliance, he was going to hold it once this year, and it was convenient for each 'door' faction to contact each other.

Hearing this, Luo Ranchu turned around, stared at her with those quiet eyes, and looked at her for a while.

"Is it for Qin Wuyan to go down the mountain this time?" He asked softly, and his voice was like a guqin plucked, clear and elegant.

Xinhu looked at him and nodded imperceptibly.

"Hmm."

That's right, she really wanted to see Yun Ruoyang and ask him about Qin Wuyan's whereabouts, he was the only person in the Demon Sect she knew.

It turned out that without Qin Wuyan, she wouldn't know in what capacity she should track his whereabouts.

It turned out that her previous emotional entanglement with him was nothing without the parties.

Luo Ranchu's eyelashes trembled, his lips moved, and he asked again.

"You can't let him go?"

"Hmm." Heartlake nodded again.

For Master, or any of them, she felt that there was nothing to hide. Escaping is not the solution to the problem.

Luo Ranchu removed the gaze that had been on her face, his expression was faint, still as ethereal as the clouds on the Immortal Peak, he bowed his head slightly, looking at the swaying light and shadow on the ground.

"Okay, I see, you go." He said so calmly, without any emotional ups and downs.

Heartlake got his approval, and turned around, a little afraid to look at his expression.

"That'...... Master...... I'll go pack my things. ”

As if in a hurry to escape, she walked so fast that she didn't even hear the sound of footsteps a few steps behind.

After so many years of master and apprenticeship, if she didn't understand it before, how could she not understand it now.

However, she can't manage so much now, she just wants to solve the doubt in her heart, Qin Wuyan, do you really want her?

Knowing the idea that Xinhu was going down the mountain, Bai Hengzhi just raised his eyebrows, I know, I will accompany you, just like her guardian as a matter of course, and he didn't even ask, what is she going to do when she goes down the mountain.

##################################################

It was night, in the orange light of the oil lamp.

Xinhu repeatedly flipped through the books and papers in his hand, unable to sleep.

Probably because of the sequelae of tossing and turning a while ago, she always had a little unstable sleep, so she simply went to bed later.

At this moment, a voice as warm as water came from outside the 'door'.

"Heartlake, did you sleep?"

"Master?" Xinhu stood up and ran to open the 'door'.

Outside the 'door', stood the figure of Luo Ran Chuqingxiu.

"You come with the teacher."

After saying this, Luo Ranchu turned around and walked forward.

Xinhu didn't have time to put on a coat, so he hurriedly chased after him.

When chasing Luo Ranchu and coming to the 'door' of the study, watching him squeak and push open the 'door' of the study, although Xinhu was full of doubts and 'confusion', he still crossed the threshold of the 'door' and entered the study.

When he lit the lamp in the study, Heartlake looked around.

"Here?" She spoke in astonishment.

I saw that every book on the desk, couch, and even the shelves had fallen a thick layer of dust, showing that no one had been here for a long time, let alone cleaned it.

Luo Ranchu raised his sleeve robe, brushed the dust off the chair, and after kicking up a cloud of dust, he sat down.

"Master, don't sit there, dirty."

Seeing Luo Ranchu's 'jade' and 'colored' robes stained with ash, Xinhu couldn't help frowning, in her impression, the master loves cleanliness very much, and always wears plain 'color' elegant clothes, with a world-class demeanor and clean dust.

Now I don't care so much, and I haven't even cleaned the study for a long time, is ...... What's wrong?

"I haven't been in here since you left that day."

Luo Ranchu sat on the chair, on the desk was a half-painted painting, as well as a 'hair' pen that had been glued to a ball after drying, he picked up the painting, and his 'lips' gently blew the ash on it.

Looking at Luo Ranchu in front of him, digesting what he said, Xinhu was stunned.

Master...... Is this telling her that he regretted it at the time and has regretted it until now? I couldn't control the shock in my heart.

"Heartlake...... You come here. Luo Ranchu beckoned to her, and the corners of his lips outlined a gentle smile.

Xinhu walked towards him and stopped at the desk, she looked at Luo Ranchu in a daze, lightly opened Zhu's lips, and called in a low voice.

"Master......" His eyes were uncontrollably hot, and fluid was rolling.

"Xinhu, look at this painting, I wanted to give it to you on the day I got married, but unfortunately, I didn't finish the painting."

Xinhu looked at the portrait of the 'girl' in the painting, the figure, the clothes, the hair, although the eyebrows and eyes had not yet been painted, it was clearly her who was drawn...... and her 'chest' couldn't help but be shocked.

"When you were a child, you always begged Master to paint a portrait of you, but Master only painted landscapes, never people. I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect you to run away like that. Speaking slowly, Luo Ranchu's eyes as clear as a pool of water were a little dark, and his tone contained abruptness and helplessness, as well as deep tiredness.

"Master, is it ...... ...... day Aren't you rejecting the apprentice? Hearing his words, Xinhu asked in a trembling voice, and the impact in his heart was like the heavens and the earth were falling apart and a volcano erupted.

It's not that there is no resentment or blame for him, but because she is in love with his goodness and gentleness, she never asked him again later.

"Heartlake, it's my fault. For a long time, I have always loved you as an apprentice, but after what happened that day, I couldn't face my male and female feelings for you, Master has never loved 'female' people, never cared so much about anything, and I don't know how to deal with this strong emotion, and I am ...... Afraid. ”

Luo Ranchu stood up, walked around to the table, took her into his arms, and stroked her hair.

"I'm sorry, Heartlake."

"I really regret being a teacher...... You tell me that because of Master's hesitation at that time, your people ran away, and did your heart also leave? Luo Ranchu slapped her face, with clear chagrin and sadness in his eyes.

"No matter how I look for you later, even if I find you and hold you, your heart is no longer on Master?" Luo Ranchu's voice was still gentle, but stubborn.

"Master......" Xinhu looked at Luo Ranchu's clear and peaceful face, and an expression similar to pain and struggle appeared, and her heart also stabbed.

She never knew, it turned out, his heart ......

Even if the two hugged and kissed intimately, and the "lips" and tongues seemed to be extremely close, there was no heart-to-heart talk at this moment.

What he showed her was his heart......

This man, who has been with her for so many years and exists like a god in her mind, shows such a fragile and even vulnerable side in front of her.

How could she so easily forget his tenderness, how good he had been to her for so many years?

The palm of his hand on her cheek felt warm and delicate like mutton fat 'jade', and the temperature had been ironed into her heart.

It was these hands that once grabbed her little hand, handed her steamed buns, took her away from hunger and panic, took her to the peak of immortality, and taught her to read and practice hand in hand......

Everything she knows now is taught by him, and all her tempers, good and bad, are spoiled by him.

Tears, snapping, snapping, and falling non-stop.

His vision blurred, and his face became like a phantasm in her vision.

"Master......" Xinhu called out urgently, grabbed his waist, and buried his face in his arms.

"I'm sorry...... Master, I will never leave again, I will never leave you again...... I won't think about him anymore......" Xinhu hugged Luo Ranchu tightly, and his voice 'switched'.

"I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"

Luo Ranchu sighed softly.

"I'm not telling you this to tie you up."

Xinhu raised his head suddenly, his watery eyes full of doubt.

"Master will go down the mountain with you, and we will go to him together."

"I just hope you're happy." As long as you're happy, that's fine. Luo Ranchu 'kissed' her hair and patted her back with his hand.

His arms were reassuring and warm, like a big tree sheltering her from the wind and rain.

I was moved by Master...... Whining...... I'm a 'flowery' carrot......
