Chapter 1 See you again
Heyang City, Shanhai Garden.
Lin Zhuo sat at the window on the second floor, the wine glass in her hand shook slightly, she looked at the full moon in the sky, and when she looked up, a glass of the full moon in the sky entered her chest.
Jiu Yan leaned quietly on the side of the table, but there was a blue jade bracelet next to the wine jug on the table.
This jade bracelet is called 'Nayue Bracelet', which was specially handed over to him by Shuiyue when he left, and has the effect of mustard seed Sumeru.
Because of the long distance this time, I don't know what situation will be encountered on the way, so I have prepared some more things, and they are all stored in this jade bracelet at this time.
But by the time everything was ready, it was already dark. After a little total, I simply decided to stay in Heyang City for one night and set off tomorrow.
I don't know why, as soon as today's Heyang City arrives at night, the pedestrians on the street look hurried, Lin Zhuo asked the shopkeeper, only to know that the Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived, it should be the day of family reunion, and who wants to hang outside.
After half of the wine, looking at the empty hall of Shanhaiyuan, Lin Zhuo's face was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long time, she stood up and lifted Jiuyan, carried two jugs of wine and went out, slightly identified the direction, and went straight to the east of the city.
The moon and stars were sparse all the way, and she seemed to know this place very well, and she came to a mansion that had been obviously abandoned for a long time.
The breeze blew slowly, shaking the dilapidated wooden plaque hanging under the eaves of the courtyard door, and by the full moon and clear light, the three beautiful small characters of 'Xiaohuanju' were faintly visible.
Lin Zhuo exhaled lightly, raised his hand and pushed open the courtyard door, and just wanted to step in, but unexpectedly met the eyes of the girl playing in the courtyard.
This girl is about eight or nine years old, with two small pigtails, and a little baby fat on her face, which looks very cute.
At this time, she was holding a small wooden jar to catch the crickets in the courtyard, and she didn't expect that someone would suddenly push the door in, and she only looked at Lin Zhuo in a daze for a while, and she didn't react yet.
Lin Zhuo was also stunned, but then he caught a glimpse of a faint light in the room in front of him, shining through the tattered paper window.
She was slightly startled, and then a little anger surged out.
Holding Jiu Yan in her hand, she asked the girl coldly, "Who are you?" After that, she pointed to the room with the lights on, and then asked, "Who is in that room?"
The girl was obviously a little frightened of the woman in black who suddenly broke in, but she still stood up and asked timidly, "Who are you? Why did you break into my house!"
"Your house?" Lin Zhuo frowned slightly, and just wanted to say something more, but the people in the house heard the movement in the courtyard and walked out to check.
Lin Zhuo looked at the man, but he was stunned and speechless.
This person has a thin face, white hair and beard, and a faint moonlight draped on him, looking like a crane bone fairy, looking like a high-ranking person, but it is the Zhou Zhou Immortal who has never been seen since he said goodbye.
I don't know why, his hair and beard, which were still gray back then, are now all white, and he has lost a lot of weight.
Zhou Zhou Xian didn't recognize Lin Zhuo for a while, and when he saw Lin Zhuo just break in, he couldn't help frowning, took two steps forward and pulled the little girl over, and said, "Who are you? Why did you break into the old man's house?"
The wind gently blew the silver threads of his sideburns, Lin Zhuo looked at him and pursed his lips and opened his mouth, but he only felt that his throat was slightly dry, and he couldn't speak for a while.
Zhou Zhou Xian saw Jiuyan in Lin Zhuo's hand at this time, looked at Jiuyan carefully, and turned around Lin Zhuo's face twice, but he was also stunned, pointing at Lin Zhuo and said, "You... Are you that thief?!"
Lin Zhuo smiled dumbly, revealing two rows of white and shiny teeth, but he grabbed Zhou Yixian's beard, gritted his teeth and said, "Old man, warn you, call me a thief again, and I will pull out your beard." ”
Monday grinned in pain, and hurriedly said: "Stop, stop, stop hurt, the old man made a slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, let go!"
Lin Zhuo glared at him again, and then let go of his hand.
Zhou Zhou Xian covered his chin and rubbed it several times, and then he eased up, glared at Lin Zhuo dissatisfiedly, and then glared at the girl next to him who was looking at Lin Zhuo with curiosity at the moment, touched his beard distressedly, and muttered: "The old man's beard will be fooled by you sooner or later." ”
After that, he pulled the girl around and walked towards the house, walked two steps and heard no movement behind him, but when he turned around, he saw that Lin Zhuo was still in place and did not move, so he pouted and said, "What are you doing standing there, come in and sit." ”
After speaking, he pointed to the courtyard door and said dissatisfiedly: "Close the door for the old man." ”
Lin Zhuo looked at the old man with the same expression as many years ago, chuckled and turned around to close the courtyard door, and followed.
...
"Crackle!"
With a soft sound, the oil lamp on the square table flickered, and the faces of the two people at the table, one big and one small, flickered and darkened.
Lin Zhuo looked at the girl sitting opposite him staring at him closely, and said after a long time, "What's your name?"
"Zhou Xiaohuan. The girl replied timidly.
Lin Zhuo chuckled, looking at this smart and clever girl who inherited Zhou Xingyun's body in the original book, but for some reason she was a little teased in her heart.
Raising his right hand, the blue light flashed on the jade bracelet he was wearing on his wrist, and a string of crystal clear sugar gourds appeared in his hand.
I also bought some snacks on the spur of the moment when I was shopping for daily necessities today, but I didn't expect them to come in handy now.
Zhou Xiaohuan looked at the cunning beautiful woman in front of him, and then looked at the string of sugar gourds that were clear and attractive under the light of the oil lamp, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Lin Zhuo deliberately admired seductively: "A sugar gourd is a wild hawthorn I picked from Qingyun Mountain, all of them are big and round, sweet and sour, and I specially asked the famous master of Heyang City to boil the syrup, tsk, this bite down, that's really..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Zhou Xian walked over from the side with two plates of side dishes, and put the dishes on the table angrily, only then did he snatch the sugar gourd in Lin Zhuo's hand and hand it to Zhou Xiaohuan.
Zhou Xiaohuan obviously swallowed his saliva again, but he still didn't take the sugar gourd, but instead a pair of big bright eyes fell on Lin Zhuo.
Lin Zhuo smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "It's for you, eat it." ”
Zhou Xiaohuan smiled when he saw this, and thanked him crisply, and then took the sugar gourd in Zhou Xian's hand and couldn't wait to take a bite.
After tasting it carefully, she said again: "Sister is a liar, this sugar gourd is obviously made by Uncle Wang of Heyang City, and the taste is exactly the same, I can taste it." ”
Lin Zhuo looked at her more serious expression and couldn't help but smile even more happily.
Zhou Zhou Xian also smiled bitterly, shook his head and sat down, and said to Lin Zhuo: "It's a full moon, and it's a festival, and there are no good things, let's make do with it." ”
Lin Zhuo glanced at the food on the table, only to see that it was two light side dishes, she looked at Zhou Xiaohuan, frowned and said in disgust: "You're fine, but now there is still Xiaohuan, and you are still picking the door like this." ”
Zhou Zhou Xian touched his nose slightly embarrassed when he heard this, and smiled, Lin Zhuo saw that he had no choice but to look like an iron rooster, and with a wave of his hand, there were two more wine jugs on the table.
Zhou Xian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took a pot and sniffed it carefully, then smashed his mouth intoxicated, and sighed: "Shanhaiyuan's 'Qingling Fruit Wine', tsk, I haven't tasted it for a long time." With that, he took a sip.
Lin Zhuo smiled, took out another cup for himself, and then lightly filled the cup, and said to Zhou Xian: "Old man, after many years, goodbye now, you still have the same style, I salute you." ”
Without waiting for Zhou Xian to reply, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
Zhou Zhou Xian chuckled when he saw this, raised the wine jug and took another sip, and exclaimed: "It's been almost ten years, your girl has grown so big, tsk, but this temperament has really not changed at all, it is exactly the same as when Xingyun picked it up back then." ”
It's just that when they heard the word Xingyun, the two of them were silent for some reason,
There was a hint of loneliness in Zhou Xian's eyes, and he stopped talking, and drank wine with his head bored.
Lin Zhuo turned his head to look at the hazy moonlight outside the window, and as if he had made up his mind under his frown, he took off a jade plate from his waist with one hand and gently put it in front of Zhou Xian.
"It's... It turns out that you're here, this kid..."Zhou Zhou Xian saw the jade card face change slightly, and then shook his head with a wry smile.
Lin Zhuo nodded and said, "When Uncle Zhou gave me such a thing, I thought it was an ordinary jade plate, and I accepted it as a souvenir, but I later discovered the extraordinaryness of this jade plate." I really deserve such a precious thing, and I will return it to you when I see you today. ”
Zhou Zhou Xian took a closer look at the two silver wires on the blue jade plate, and couldn't help but sigh lightly.
"Heavenly thunder? and... Wood Ray ?!!"
He muttered in slight surprise.
