People in the world have a saying that "peach reciprocates plum", but the young man from Xingtianjian voted for hawthorn sugar gourd, and Ah Qing reported for a meal, six dishes and one soup, and the number together happened to be seven hawthorns in that string of rock sugar gourds.

It's just that the atmosphere in the dining room is a little awkward at the moment, the young man of the Star Heavenly Prison takes off the brim of his black hat, and his face is no longer cloudy and mist, but it is not handsome, and even if it weren't for the deep eyes and a lot of points, this person would not be inconspicuous at all when he took off the star suit and walked in the crowd.

He kept holding the chopsticks in his hand, slowly and leisurely holding the home-cooked dishes on the table, holding a porcelain bowl of white rice, eating quietly, without talking or looking at everyone.

There were all the senior brothers and sisters and Su Huahua sitting at a table, except for the huge Miao Zhen senior brother who took care of himself and eliminated bowl after bowl of rice, everyone's eyes were moving back and forth between this "strange" guest and Ah Qing, with strange eyes.

The scene was a little mysterious for a while, as if it was rendered by the star Chinese New Year's Eve star costume of the Star Prison.

Ah Qing sat opposite the young man in Xingtianjian and also buried his head in eating, he has always been confident in his craft, and he is not worried at all whether this guest will not like it, even if he doesn't like it, there is no way, there are no delicacies in the academy.

Ah Qing knew the identity of the person sitting on the other side, because there was a vague record of the Star Heavenly Prison in the library pavilion, most of which said something that everyone in the world knew, which was wonderful and strange.

When the vice president said that he wanted them to participate in this year's Fuyao test, Ah Qing jumped up and down excitedly.

It's not because you can see people from all over the world competing for beauty, or you can see the rumored powerful demon clan that can be beasted, but because you can see the members of the Star Heavenly Prison who founded the Fuyao Test.

There was a sentence in that book, but it was deeply remembered in Ah Qing's mind, and even Ah Qing looked at those three words for a long time.

The sentence is: Xingtianjian is a mountain guard, guarding the mountain at the edge of the world.

Those three words are: Mountain Keeper.

Qing's parents are now in that mountain range that is higher than the sky.

Participating in the Fuyao test can meet Xingtianjian, Ah Qing thought about it anyway, ask his parents who would cry when he thought of it, and ask the mountain on his chest.

They are "mountain guards", they will "measure the stars", then they will definitely know the answer that Ah Qing wants.

At that moment, a young man from Xingtianjian "accidentally" appeared in front of Ah Qing, but Ah Qing's expression was as plain as usual, and his heart was actually turbulent. He was enduring it, he was calming down, because he had an intuition that this Star Heavenly Prison boy was coming to him.

Women's intuition is often very accurate, and Ah Qing thinks that his current intuition is even more accurate than women's.

So the two of them didn't say a word, ate silently, and occasionally had the same plate under the chopsticks, and there was nothing unusual between the chopsticks, you sandwiched your shiitake mushrooms, and I sandwiched my shredded meat.

However, these people next to them felt that in addition to the smell of food in the air of the restaurant, there was also an imperceptible smell of gunpowder.

The two teenagers felt like they were in a state of flux.

Su Huahua squinted his eyes with a grin, bit the chopsticks in his mouth, and watched the two of them eat with relish.

She saw two paintings, one with the sun and the moon rising at the same time, and the other with the stars shining.

Yuan Huanhuan finally couldn't help it, sighed and said, "Fifth brother, your voice is too loud when you eat." I know it's delicious, but you've already eaten three bowls, and eating it again will be bad for your health. ”

Miao Yuan, who was about to eat the fourth bowl of rice, was stunned when he heard this, scratched his head a little embarrassed, scratched his head and held chopsticks in his hand and said: "Hey! Then I won't eat it, I'll drink a bowl of soup!" After that, he filled a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup and drank it all, which was very bold, and his face full of fat was even more satisfied.

Su Huahua sneered and said, "Yuan Huanhuan is afraid that Senior Brother Miao will eat his share, right? The amount of food of the old man is so small, the same as that of a girl's family, and he doesn't let Senior Brother Miao eat it, it's really bad!"

Yuan Huanhuan glared and shouted: "Su paints, do you know how to be polite?"

"No, what do you look like a senior brother?" Senior sister is almost the same!" Su said with his tongue sticking out his tongue.

Yuan Huanhuan raised his chopsticks and was about to throw them over, Su Huahua smiled and shook his head, not afraid of Yuan Huanhuan's fake handle at all.

The scene eased a lot after this, and the senior brothers and sisters opened the chatterbox to chat, and from time to time there were quarrels between Su Huahua and Yuan Xianhuan.

It's just that Ah Qing and the young man are still immersed in eating and unmoved, until the two of them put down the dishes and chopsticks in the same action, and the rest of the room stopped talking and looked at each other.

"Thank you. The Star Heaven Prison boy spoke.

"Haha! Su painted, you lost! Pay the money quickly!" Yuan Huanhuan said with a loud laugh.

Su Huahua rolled his eyes, took out two pennies from his sleeve, slapped them vigorously into Yuan Huanhuan's hand, and muttered: "A bunch of sugar gourds have been eaten for nothing." ”

Yuan Xianhuan clenched his fists and gestured in front of Su's painting. Just now, the two of them made a bet, who would be the first to talk between Ah Qing and the young man of the Star Heavenly Prison, and the one who guessed correctly would win two cents and buy a string of rock sugar gourds at the bottom of the mountain.

Everyone looked at Yuan Huanhuan's expressions with disgust.

The young man in the Star Heavenly Prison turned a blind eye to Su Huahua's resentful eyes on the side, looked at A-Qing and said, "Your skills are good. ”

"Thank you. A-Qing said very sincerely.

"My name is Star. The Star Heavenly Prison boy said.

"My name is Lin Qing. Ah Qing followed the words and introduced himself.

"Nice to meet you. ”

"Me too. ”

"I'm sixteen years old. ”

"So coincidentally, so did I. ”

"You have a nice pair of eyes. ”

"Thank you, your eyes are beautiful too. ”

......

Listening to the conversation between the two, even Yun Ting, who had a rather cold temperament, felt a little speechless, let alone the others.

These words are too common for people who meet for the first time, introduce themselves to each other and praise each other, because they are too dramatic, and often the first people who meet each other in this way will not end up being friends, regardless of gender.

And the blunt words between these two teenagers of the same age, between the words and the tone, reveal the sincerity and naturalness of revealing their hearts.

It's weird, maybe the two of them are weird in their own right.

The young man named Xingtian Prison chatted with Ah Qing about his life, and after a few words, Chen Ken got up and left to go to the library pavilion. Ah Qing cleaned up the mess in the dining house, and the rest of the people did their own thing.

Gao Yangyue stayed to help, Gao Yangyue in the academy was never the princess of Da Chu, but the eldest sister was big, and her hands touched Yang Chunshui. She rolled up her sleeves to reveal her moon-like wrist, with a delicate phoenix bracelet on her wrist, and wiped the table and asked, "Why don't you ask him?"

Ah Qing, who was squatting with his back to Gao Yangyue, was washing the dishes and chopsticks and said, "He hasn't left yet, so he has a chance to ask." ”

Gao Yangyue looked at Aqing's back and thought to herself: Her shoulders are much wider than they were two years ago.

......

After the sun rises in the east, it gradually follows an eternal and unchanging trajectory in the sky to the non-existent western mountain, and the remnants of the day's light are sprinkled into the world and then retreats into the background.

Perched birds fly at night, there is no moon tonight, and the stars are the masters of the dark sky at this time.

Ah Qing went downstairs after reading his notes in his room, and after stepping on the jack array to play a few sets of boxing techniques, he saw Xingxing wearing a star robe, holding a fire fold on the oil lamp and a few lanterns on the wall of the corridor of the Academy.

Ah Qing looked up at the sky, and then at the black robe of the stars, and found that the stars on his clothes were even brighter than those in the sky.

When the lights in the courtyard are lit, they reflect each other with the lights on the top floor of the library pavilion, illuminating directly to the gate of the ordinary academy.

Xingxing put away the fire fold and came to the steps of the courtyard gate, and Ah Qing followed behind Xingxing, and the two stood side by side at the same height.

At the foot of the mountain, Longhu City is brightly lit, while the pine forest and Longhu Lake are hidden in the dark.

"Why are you cultivating spiritually?" Xing Xing asked, naturally asking Ah Qing beside him.

The question is straightforward.

When Ah Qing first hooked the aura of heaven and earth in the library pavilion, the aura of the eight directions gathered around the ordinary mountain.

When the first drop of spiritual power dropped into Ah Qing's spiritual power mansion, he had already successfully embarked on the path of cultivation.

This is not difficult for him at all, if those "newcomers" who are struggling to communicate the aura know, they will definitely be puzzled.

In fact, A-Qing never solved it.

From the first time he moved over the plaque of the Ordinary Academy, he knew why he wanted to cultivate the spirit and why he wanted to become a practitioner.

The purpose of his spiritual cultivation at the beginning was very clear, that is, to go to the mountain at the edge of the world, and even the scenery that ordinary people could not see and the feelings that ordinary people could not experience, Ah Qing didn't care.

Just like in Xintao Village, the childish care of girls of the same age in the village, and the casual ridicule of boys of the same age, Ah Qing never cared.

But he cares about the kindness of others, Zhao Laoru in the private school, Uncle Wang, the village head, Aunt Liu, the wife of the village chief, Grandma Li, who is alone, and the widow Zhou who is the best at scolding the street, the drunkard Zhong Laohan, etc., so in the busy farming season, Aqing will rush to the front to help, every family.

The loneliness and stubbornness hidden in Ah Qing's heart since he was a child is his childishness.

And Aqing's childishness comes from the hearts of his parents.

However, unlike the two-year academy life in the previous fourteen years, Ah Qing found that the scenery along the path of the walker is worth nostalgia, and the people along the way are worth talking and working with, and those feelings that he didn't care about before will quietly take root in his heart, and then wait for them to blossom.

The purpose of Ah Qing's spiritual cultivation has never deviated, and it is still the mountain. It's just that his path of traveler is not just the mountain at the end, but a road full of unknowns, and the road leads to the mountain.

Therefore, on the day that Senior Brother Yan Shi and Second Senior Brother Bu Xingchen left the academy, Ah Qingmu saw them off and burst into tears.

Therefore, the little red riding hood in the heavy snow became the foundation for him to break through the state of mind.

Loneliness is no more, but stubbornness remains.

"Because I'm going to climb the mountain. Ah Qing said, his eyes brighter than the stars.

The young man of the Star Heavenly Prison nodded, his right hand stretched out from his robe, his delicate and white fingers plucked in front of him, and the volley outlined an ancient and mysterious pattern, the movements were gentle, and there was light on his fingertips, and as he finished a pattern, the sky was full of stars a little dim.

The light in front of the two of them was bright, bright but not dazzling.

"Every life has its own star, and at the end of life, a meteor will cross the sky as a farewell to this world," the star said. There are countless lives and countless stars, which is the sea of stars. ”

Ah Qing looked up at the sky and asked, "Then where is my star?"

The star pointed to the east and said, "There." ”

Ah Qing opened his eyes wide and followed the star, and saw countless small stars, he pointed to a certain brighter one and asked, "This one?"

"It's not. Xingxing shook his head.

"That's the one?" Ching pointed to the brighter one.

"It's not. Xingxing's tone was flat.

"Is that this one?" asked Ah Qing, a little disappointed, pointing to the less bright one.

Xingxing shook his head and said, "You can't see it." ”

"Why?" Aqing wondered, could it be because it was too dark?

"Because your star is on the other side of the mountain. "The stars look up to the east.

As soon as the words fell, the light in front of the two of them gradually shrank and split in two, flying into Ah Qing's eyes.

Ah Qing was looking up at the east, and after his eyes lit up, Ah Qing closed his eyes, and he didn't feel unwell, just a little warm.

A moment later, Ah Qing opened his eyes and saw that in the far east, behind the mountain that seemed to be higher than the sky, there was an ice-blue star emitting pure light.

At this time, Ah Qing really has the sun and moon in his eyes, and he can shine on the stars.
