Chapter Twenty-Eight
Lu Xueyuan was instantly soothed by this beat, and just when she felt a lot more happy in her heart, Lou Yi stretched out his hand to her, "Let's go, A-Yuan." He said.
Lu Xueyuan was still unsure why, but he was directly pulled up by him, "Looking for your lost things, by the way, greetings to 'old friend'." ”
Lu Xueyuan was pulled forward by Lou Yi, and ten minutes later, they appeared in front of a dormitory - Tingfeng Pavilion.
Lu Xueyuan couldn't help laughing when she looked at this wooden signboard, before she was still curious why her senior brother had to hang a signboard at her door, but now she fully understands that according to Lou Yi's noble status, I am afraid that only in this way can the environment be 'elegant'.
The two walked through the hall to the courtyard, but the senior brother Qi Zhurong was not in the room, but a thin disciple was taking care of the courtyard.
"Lu... Senior Sister Lu, what are you—" The man asked aloud.
"I brought her here." Lou Yi replied to him.
Lu Xueyuan stood quietly on the side and didn't say anything, it wasn't that she was asked, but the disciple who asked the question, the person she was looking for, Wushuang.
Lu Xueyuan suddenly understood Lou Yi's intention to bring her here, stood up, and said to Wushuang, who was sweeping: "Little junior brother, I have something I want to ask you." ”
Wushuang stopped the movement in his hand, and looked at her vigilantly with a pair of eyes that were wide and round.
"Lu... Senior Sister Lu, what is the matter with you looking for me? ”
Lu Xueyuan was not a person who liked to beat around the bush, she directly took out the gold leaf in her arms, held it up and said, "This, but yours?" ”
Wushuang saw the gold leaf in Lu Xueyuan's hand, his face turned pale at once, he put down the broom in his hand, knelt directly on the ground, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Senior Sister Lu, I'm sorry, it's me, I accidentally picked it up!" ”
"You're lying!" Lu Xueyuan looked at the frost-free on the ground and frowned.
It's not that she can't accept him taking her things, but she doesn't want to hear others lie to her.
"My gold leaf has been kept in the cabinet all the time, how could I let you pick it up for no reason!"
Lou Yi said: "Frankly and leniently, this junior brother, I advise you to tell the story through 1510, otherwise we can't guarantee what we will do." ”
He has always been light, but the words he says always make people shudder.
Before Lu Xueyuan could refute that she didn't mean that, he heard Wushuang say: "A few days ago, I went to clean the disciples' rooms, and I accidentally saw something glowing, I wanted to see what it was, but before I got close, I was stunned on the ground by a burst of light, and when I woke up, I saw that there was an extra gold leaf beside me, and I was... I was so scared that I didn't know what to do, so I put the gold leaf in the book, and then I accidentally left the book in another room, and I still haven't found it..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head, and a few tears fell to the ground.
Lu Xueyuan had no intention of blaming, but seeing him like this, he quickly reached out to pick him up, and the tone in his mouth was obviously relaxed, "Senior Brother Wushuang, I don't want you to do anything, it's just that something is wrong, and I just want to find out." ”
She stretched out her hand, patted the dirt on Wushuang's body, and said, "Although I can't know that what you said is true, I can't prove that it is false, since you said that you picked it up by accident, then this gold leaf," she said, stuffing the gold leaf in her hand into Wushuang's hand, and continued, "It's yours." ”
Wushuang had obviously not recovered from Fang Cai's fright, and he couldn't believe the scene in front of him, he thought that he would be driven out like a water dog, or be humiliated and scolded, in short, there was no good fruit to eat.
"You! It's always like this, cold on the outside, kind on the inside. Lou Yi looked at her and said helplessly.
Always...... Lu Xueyuan listened to his words, and for a moment he was distracted.
Fortunately, it was not an unforgivable event, she originally thought that it should not be theft, otherwise there would be only one missing one of the eighty-one gold leafs. But if it's really like what Senior Brother Wushuang said, her room is bright and glowing, then why did she never know it?
Wushuang held the gold leaf tightly in his hand, the tears in his eyes were still swirling, he rarely felt the warmth of the world since his father died and was sent to Qingya Mountain.
Speaking of which, their fates are so similar, one lost his family at the age of four, and the other lost his father at the age of ten, but Lu Xueyuan was already in his teens when Wushuang was sent. And their fates are so different, Lu Xueyuan is at least loved and cared for by his master, while Wushuang can only survive among the senior brothers.
With tears in his eyes, he said, "Thank you... Thank you, Senior Sister Lu. ”
Lu Xueyuan smiled and left the Listening Wind Pavilion. Lou Yi also followed her out.
"Why don't you collect debts from him?" Lou Yi spoke, he and Lu Xueyuan walked side by side, but his eyes fell on her shoulders in a scattered manner.
"What's there to please, just a child." Lu Xueyuan looked ahead and didn't know what he was thinking.
To be honest, there was a kind of sourness in her heart, not because the gold leaf was given to others, but because she felt pity for the feeling of being cautious everywhere and being treated as a thief by others if she was not careful.
Does the little people who are marginalized everywhere have to be such a fate? Why can't we survive in a desperate situation?
Lou saw that her face was not very happy, grabbed her delicate hand, and ran with her like the wind.
Lu Xueyuan couldn't break free, so he could only run wild with him in the green mountains.
Surrounded by the breeze, the two of them flew in their clothes and ran in the mountains, like two carefree birds, free and easy.
Ten minutes later, Lu Xueyuan and Lou Yi both gasped for breath, put their hands on their knees, and stood in front of a huge locust tree. This locust tree is covered with green leaves, and the trunk alone is more than a dozen people thick, and it should be hundreds of years old. There was also a strong ancient vine wrapped around its body, which climbed tightly on the body of the tree, and firmly locked the trunk of a dozen people thick in a circle.
"You take me... What are you doing here... Is it? Lu Xueyuan asked breathlessly.
"Don't you know? This is a century-old vine. The building means pointing to the ancient locust tree road.
Lu Xueyuan looked up in his direction, and then saw that there were purple flowers blooming on the vigorous and clumsy ancient vines, adding a bit of playfulness and gorgeousness in this pale winter, the breeze blowing, and there were bursts of pure fragrance.
Lu Xueyuan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and relaxed.
"This vine has been on the locust tree for hundreds of years, and they are attached to each other and share the wind and rain." Lou Yi looked at the tree in front of him and said leisurely.
"Moreover, it is said that this century-old vine has a spirit and can understand everything, and as long as you sincerely pray for it, it will appear to help people solve their troubles."
Lu Xueyuan sneered after hearing this. She said: "When did the rumors come out, I can only deceive you people outside the mountain, I grew up here, can I not know?" These are all fake, where will there be any dryads..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw an old woman with purple buds, on crutches, suddenly appear in front of them.
Lu Xueyuan tugged at Lou Yi's clothes in surprise, and he was so excited that he couldn't even speak.
"She... She, she's really a dryad?! Lu Xueyuan hurriedly asked.
I saw that the old woman saw the two of them here, and wanted to bow, but was supported by Lou Yi, and said softly: "Don't bow to the wisteria woman, we are just juniors." ”
The old man who was called Wisteria Po seemed to be dizzy with old eyes, and after being helped up by Lou Yi, he grabbed his hand and looked at him for a long time before he spoke: "Childe, how are you doing lately?" ”
Lou Yi nodded, pushed Lu Xueyuan to him, and said, "This is my friend, A-Yuan, she has some things and wants to ask her mother-in-law." ”
Lu Xueyuan stood in front of the wisteria woman, a little at a loss, she had not seen the real tree vine transformation, she was a little surprised for a while, and she stumbled even when she spoke.
"You... Can you really know everything, know everything? ”
Wisteria squinted her eyes and nodded, Lu Xueyuan was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly grabbed her mother-in-law's hand and said, "Wisteria mother-in-law, I want to know if I have a spiritual root?" How can we break through the foundation? ”
As soon as Lu Xueyuan finished speaking, she saw the wisteria woman pick a petal and wrap it around her, closed her eyes and thought about it, and then shook her head.
Lu Xueyuan was originally pleasantly surprised, but when he saw her like this, he unconsciously clenched his fingers. Her heart sank again.
"But what's the change?" Lou Yi asked.
Wisteria woman stood in front of the ancient tree, the wind candle remnant, sighed and said: "Childe, I have lived for five hundred years now, although I don't know it completely, but I have seen thousands of things in this world, although this girl is full of spiritual power, but it is in conflict with her own veins, and the suppression of the foundation cannot be revealed, even my mother-in-law I can't see what the spiritual root is." ”
Lu Xueyuan's face was like ashes after hearing this, and her long green silk was blown up by the wind, only lining her back thin and thin.
Lu Xueyuan was desperate for a moment, turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Lou Yi.
"Wisteria really... Is there no way? Lou Yi asked.
The worried Wisteria woman glanced at Lu Xueyuan's resolute back, smiled, and said, "Holy flint, only the holy flint can make the aura in her body run and turn, and..." Seeing Lu Xueyuan slowly turn around, Wisteria looked at her and said, "Maybe we can open up the dual spirit roots in her body." ”
"Twin Spirit Roots?" Lu Xueyuan and Lou Yi said in unison.
Wisteria Po smiled, but she was helpless, "The twin spirit roots are a sign of congenital weakness, and there are very few people who have dual spirit roots, but it does not mean that the spiritual power is doubled, but because of the suppression of the innate double veins, no matter which spirit root can not exert the power it should have, therefore, most people with dual spirit roots lack congenital physical strength, and it is not good for cultivation." ”
"Grandma, are you sure I really have the Twin Spirit Roots in my body?" Lu Xueyuan frowned, as if he didn't believe it.
"Little girl, my wisteria woman has been in this world for five hundred years, and I have never seen anything in the world, and I can see the life in your body, in addition to this, you are also easy to provoke evil spirits, right?"
Lu Xueyuan remembered that he drew a formation when he was a child, but he summoned more than a dozen dead soldiers, as well as a contract with the ghosts and gods of the underworld... Nodding compromisedly.
"Haha, it's okay, the girl Jiren has her own natural appearance, and she will turn evil into good fortune!" After the wisteria woman finished speaking, she spun around and disappeared in place, leaving only a gust of wind blowing, and a few purple petals fell.
