Chapter 8: Sanzo Mountain (1)
Shaoguang is like an arrow, and the sun and moon are like a shuttle.
Three years later, between the red mountains and clear waters, an off-road vehicle was speeding away, and the sound of wild engines echoed in the mountains. Dr. Mia and Luer have just finished their mission to the Western Frontier. Lu'er wore a sunhat and sat leisurely in the passenger seat looking into the distance, with a fertile field outside the car window and a vast world.
Back on the island, Shika'er hears that Chiyuki has gastroenteritis and is on bed rest. She immediately ran up to the second floor and knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Qianxue's voice was less crisp than before, and she looked very weak.
Lu'er walked in and sat on the edge of Qianxue's bed, half a moon was gone, Qianxue was emaciated, and the black hair that was always tied up high hung down and hung softly on her shoulders. Lu'er stared at her seriously for a while, and said lovingly: "Thin, quiet, but more beautiful than before!" β
"Really?" A smile appeared on Qianxue's face, and a little light was added to her eyes. She is still the same as usual, with spirit, the topic will shift to Huangfu Ye, "Lu'er, when you were away, Brother Ye secretly took us to Emei to play." β
"Oh, did you get sick after eating indiscriminately in the mountains!"
"My sister didn't allow me to eat indiscriminately, the doctor said it was induced by the season!"
Qianxue turned around, took out a colored brocade box from the bedside table, and carefully opened it, inside was a string of gorgeous Shu Julai beads: "Is it good-looking?" Along the way, Brother Night bought me a gift alone. β
Before Lu'er could answer, Qianxue said to herself: "It's very expensive!" After we finished shopping at this store, I just casually said that it was so beautiful, but I didn't expect Brother Night to buy it back! This is the first time Brother Night has given me a gift! β
The afternoon sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves outside the window into the bedroom and obliquely shines on the edge of the bed. Lu'er suddenly recalled the scorching summer evening, in a Seiko room in the underground palace, the quiet back of the emperor who was still carefully hand-made in front of the workbench at night. Slender fingers, carved an elk into a silver leaf-shaped bookmark. The gifts he gave her, silver bookmarks, leather pen cases, and celadon cups, year after year, were all made by hand.
"So, cherish it for the rest of your life!" Qianxue stretched out her left hand, put Shu Julai's beads on her wrist, and caressed it preciously, with a look of small happiness that had been quiet for years.
Lu'er felt something strange in front of her. She stared at Qianxue's left hand in surprise, and a circle of black shadows suddenly appeared on Qianxue's white wrist. When the black shadow comes into contact with Qianxue's youthful skin, a certain vitality containing light color in Qianxue's body is being lost and is being absorbed by the black shadow, and the black shadow is getting bigger little by little.
"Don't wear it!"
"What's wrong?"
Lu'er reached out and grabbed Qianxue's left wrist, trying to take off Shu Julai's bead string. Qianxue stubbornly guarded the beads, tears fell down, and she was sick, looking weak and innocent.
No matter what Lu'er says, Qianxue just doesn't believe her. Until the end, Qianxue said, you are jealous of me!
Do you just trust me like that? In the eyes of the deer, there was a sudden heavy snowfall. She pushed the door open and walked away worriedly.
A moment later, Yu Yue rushed over in a hurry. No matter how Qianxue cried, Yu Yue still mercilessly took away her cherished Shu Julai beads. That was the first time, and Qianxue asked aggrievedly why her father chose to believe in Lu'er, who was just an outsider.

Emei rice cake, mountain flower peach slices, sesame oil rice candy, sweet potato shreds, hibiscus crisp, Huangfu put all kinds of snacks in a snow-white paper bag and handed them to Lu'er. The side of the paper bag is also written in thin gold font: Renew sleep with Jun food.
"Isn't it pretty?" Huangfu smiled at night.
"The key is to be delicious!" Luer said.
"For people with fetishes, food is also three-dimensional." Huangfu smiled at night.
"Why don't you give Qianxue a copy? She should be happy to receive it. β
"Is she getting good with gastroenteritis?"
"Oh, that's what you do."
"I heard you guys had a fight?"
"It's not because of you, don't buy anything in the future, there is evil on that bead!"
"I made an unintentional mistake!" Huangfu Ye frowned slightly.
"In short, pay attention in the future, don't hurt Qianxue!" Lu'er instructed, "Also, among the four of us, Uncle Yu only let you start learning the leylines alone." In the future, every time you come back from outside, you will leave a copy for Qianxue if it is delicious and fun! β
Huangfu Ye was silent for a while, and said lightly: "Where she needs it, everyone treasures her." Only you and I are the sojourners. β
Lu'er was stunned for a while, and changed the subject: "You're not bad, always believe me!" β
Huangfu Ye was full of confidence: "I don't know you yet, you said you saw it, you must have seen it!" β
Lu'er lowered her head a little, and her white fingers swept over the colorful candies in the paper bag: "Actually, when I was young, I could only see the things of this world. At that time, it was beautiful for me to see, to be able to see the snacks in the box, the toys in the cabinet. But later, Uncle Yu opened my eyes more, but unexpectedly saw that it was an existence that did not belong to this world. I don't know if it's good or bad, but seeing it is no longer such a good feeling. Hey, I want to go back to the old days! β
Huangfu Ye gently tugged at her ponytail and comforted: "Don't be afraid, with me here, I will find a way to help you!" β
The next day, Huangfu mysteriously came to Lu'er at night and handed Lu'er a yellowed old book. On the cover is printed "Spiritual Experience". Huangfu solemnly told Lu'er that it is said that the author of this book can see the spiritual world, and the book pretends to be a carrier of fantasy novels, but in fact records his lifelong exploration of the spiritual world. Although this book is a non-scientific argumentation book that Aunt Mia despises, it can also be referred to privately.
A few days later, Huangfu continued to mysteriously come to Lu'er and handed her a thick stack of printouts. The first page of the manuscript reads "On the Universe". Huangfu Ye told Lu'er very seriously that the content of this stack of documents is a multi-dimensional space demonstrated by cutting-edge scientists.
Later, from the "Archives of Special Functions", "Spiritual Vision", to "The Ancient Law of Opening the Heavenly Eye", in short, any books related to supernatural vision, Huangfu would hand them to Lu'er at night, until one day, Lu'er couldn't bear to say:
"Please don't send me any more books!"
"Why?" Huangfu was stunned at night.
"It's naΓ―ve to talk about theories and methods in tens of thousands of words, but you don't even have a sentence of experience that you really see!" The deer muttered.
"But I said I'd help you!" The emperor has words in the night.
"Then you change your search strategy and look for the cheats of the free switch Tianyan!" The deer asked the sky speechlessly.
"Like, there's no such classification." Huangfu swallowed his saliva at night, and suddenly realized, "I understand, the invisible study how to see!" β
