Lin Zhanqing hurriedly got up, but saw a letter on the head of the bed.

Lin Zhanqing carefully opened it, and only a few short sentences were written on the letter.

The little woman thanked the uncle. The uncle doesn't have to bother to find the little woman, the little woman won't let the uncle find it. The little woman wishes the uncle all the best and happiness every day. ”

Lin Zhanqing's hands trembled a little, his brows furrowed into a pimple, and he only said, "Silly girl!"

Lin Zhanqing quickly put on his clothes, got out of the inn, rode on his horse, and looked around.

Lin Zhanqing worked tirelessly and searched every corner within a radius of dozens of miles. Even the horses were tired and emaciated. There is no trace of her, there really is no trace of her.

The night was dark, and the moonlight was bright but bleak. The stars in the sky twinkle vigorously, and the psychedelic beauty makes people intoxicated.

By a small river, the water is clear and flows unhurriedly. From time to time, the bright moonlight is reflected in the sparkling waves of the river. The creek is surrounded by a grove of dead grass under the trees.

One man and one horse, wandering here.

Lin Zhanqing was completely lost at this time, with mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say.

As if he had no bones, he let himself sit on the dry grass with empty eyes and look at the sky. After a long time, he said to himself:

"My father and mother have disappeared a long time ago, even her. Could it be that I, Lin Zhanqing, am really a lone star, destined to be separated from my closest people forever? Wandering alone forever?......

Lin Zhanqing paused for a moment and replied by himself:

"I don't know. ”

After a long while, Lin Zhanqing's eyes were still empty, but he reluctantly raised his eyelids and continued:

"It's actually good to wander alone. Be free, at least not afraid of causing trouble to others. ”

After Lin Zhanqing finished speaking, he smiled reluctantly. Completely collapsed on the grass and lay down. I don't care about the biting cold of winter at all. Tears slipped out of the corners of her eyes. But there wasn't, not even a hint of Howe's cry. It's like a wooden man who can shed tears, but can't speak.

......

Approaching the New Year, Liuyun Mountain is busy.

All the disciples on the mountain are preparing for Chinese New Year's Eve, which is an old tradition of Liuyun Mountain. Except for those who are not on the mountain, everyone should get together and spend Chinese New Year's Eve together.

The disciples had to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and the elders had to give red envelopes to the apprentices one by one, saying New Year's wishes.

In the half a year that Lin Zhanqing left, Liuyun Mountain had several conflicts with the Demon Dao, but fortunately, they were not too intense.

Whether it's Liuyun Mountain or the Demon Dao. There were only a few minor injuries, and almost no one was seriously injured. The two realms of righteousness and demons seem to have a tacit understanding, they are all petty fights, and they are not taken seriously.

It seems that the Five Noble Paths have played a role in knocking on the door of impermanence, and it may also be that the Chinese New Year is approaching. Between the good and the devil, it is far from being as tense as before.

In Liuyun Mountain, most people are happy.

The master of the performance hall is taking Gu Xi to write Spring Festival couplets and draw New Year's pictures with the cold banquet. The three of them wrote from morning to night, and painted until night. The number of Spring Festival couplets has long been exhausted, but the three of them are happy and refuse to stop.

Yin Tong of Tianxingtang led Zeng Que, and Liao Quan was preparing supplies for the New Year. Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, all aspects of daily life, including everything needed for the New Year. You have to prepare carefully, you can't do anything without it. The three of them bought and counted over and over again, and they were very busy.

The master of the Earth Instrument Hall, Hall Li, is decorating the entire Liuyun Mountain with more than a dozen disciples holding rags, brooms, lanterns, and couplets. This job is the most tiring and annoying, but fortunately, there are many people in the earth, and I am not afraid of not being able to complete it.

The hall master of the hall was led by more than a dozen disciples to make new clothes and new bedding. Renyoutang is full of female disciples, and she practices martial arts and swords all day long on weekdays, which seems to be a little less girlish. At this time, she became a female celebrity, and only then did she show the true colors of her daughter's family. One by one, they are gentle and soft to be female red, and they are very happy.

And Heyuantang ......

There was billowing steam in the kitchen of Heyuantang, and the four disciples were kneading their dough with white hand togues, sweating profusely. In the cage drawer, there are all kinds of steamed buns, flower rolls, hair cakes, and rice cakes. Han Yuning was standing aside to supervise, her hands pinned to her chest, looking vicious.

Han Molin moved a wooden chair and sat at the kitchen door, and said with words in his mouth:

"You three boys, don't underestimate this kneading dough steamed bun, the mystery in it is deep. Every time you knead the dough, it is the best opportunity for you to learn the Liuyun Sword Technique. It is necessary to integrate the Liuyun Sword Technique into it, and feel the natural truth of the Dao Law of Heaven and Earth with your heart. ”

Yi Heng, the second disciple of Heyuantang, the third disciple Ling Hurang, the fourth disciple Feng Li, and the fifth junior disciple Quan Zhi heard this, and they all glanced at Han Molin with small eyes. But no one dared to say anything, and they stepped up their efforts to knead the dough one by one. The dough in everyone's hands was crushed and ravaged over and over again.

After the dough is kneaded, part of it is kneaded into steamed buns, and part of it is rolled into flower rolls. There is also a part mixed with stick noodles and bean noodles to make a nest head.

Han Molin sat on the wooden chair, full of interest. Looking at the corner of the wall, a cage of steamed buns, flower rolls, nest heads, hair cakes, and rice cakes. With a satisfied look on his face, he said

"We people in Liuyun Mountain always have a larger amount of food. It's a pity that your senior brother is not here, so I can only work hard for the four of you. On Chinese New Year's Eve, Master will wrap you with a big red envelope. ”

The four brothers of Yi Heng finally grinned when they heard the big red envelope.

And Han Yuning heard the three words of senior brother. The hands that were originally pinned to the chest were lowered, the eyes became dull, and the whole person looked listless.

Han Molin secretly glanced at Han Yuning and hurriedly turned around. Pretend you don't know anything. It's just that there is a little distress in his eyes. Getting up from the wooden chair, he said:

"Master, I'll go around the other halls, and you guys will knead your dough well and learn the swordsmanship. Don't be lazy. ”

The four people who were kneading the dough and steaming the steamed buns and flower rolls smiled reluctantly, and the second disciple Yi Heng replied:

"Master, rest assured, the disciples must have a good understanding of the Liuyun Sword Technique. Strive to make your stomach more tired. ”

Han Molin listened to it, turned his head and instructed Han Yuning:

"Yu Ning. Your junior brothers are far inferior to Zhan'er, you have to discipline yourself as a senior sister. Can't let them embarrass Liuyun Mountain. ”

Han Yuning's face showed a fierce light, grinned, and replied:

"Daddy, don't worry, since Senior Brother Lin is not here. Then it's all up to me, who is the senior sister. ”

As if they had heard something terrible, Yi Heng's hand immediately stopped, bent over, and shrunk his neck. Then they all smiled and said one by one:

"Senior sister, don't worry, isn't it just kneading dough and steaming steamed buns, wrapped in junior brother and me. ”

"Please sit down and have a cup of tea. If the steamed buns are not steamed well, let the senior sister dispose of them. ”

"Senior sister, I'...... I'm usually the most well-behaved. ”

"Senior sister...... I, I steam steamed buns well. ”

Han Yuning smiled slightly and said:

"Don't let the four of you fall into my hands. In that case, Senior Sister can only educate you well for your Senior Brother. ”

Yi Heng's fourth junior brother was well-trained, and replied in unison: "Please rest assured, senior sister!"

Han Yuning didn't say anything, just smiled "hehe".

Then, all I heard was cries for mercy from the kitchen.

"Senior sister beat someone, we didn't make a mistake!"

"You four are manly husbands, you have to be beaten, and if you don't fight, you won't be talented!"

"Senior sister's subordinates are merciful, they can't celebrate the New Year if they are broken!"

"Hehe, senior sister has a master. ”

......

The New Year's Day is getting closer and closer, and it is Chinese New Year's Eve. It has been more than a month, and Han Yuning will sit on the mountain road halfway up Liuyun Mountain every morning and evening, watching stupidly. But he couldn't see Lin Zhanqing's shadow at all, Han Yuning even had a few hallucinations, and in a trance, he saw Lin Zhanqing dressed in white, and said with a hearty smile:

"Brother Zhan is back, Ning'er hasn't seen her for a long time, and she has become beautiful again. ”

Unfortunately, that's just a phantom. Every time Han Yuning got up, the phantom disappeared.

Later, Han Yuning simply did nothing when the phantom appeared, and immersed himself in the phantom.

Even if it's a phantom, it's Lin Zhanqing's phantom!

Luqin Island in the Fujian region, although it is a famous island, is a city by the sea. Located in the south, the climate is warm and moist, and the four seasons are like spring. To the south, there is an endless sea of islands of various sizes.

A small island called Jiekongxin, this island is shaped like a swallow's nest, although it is not large, the radius is only a few dozen miles. But in the hearts of local fishermen, it is extremely important. Because the location of this small island is right on the dividing line between calm and rough seas.

It's fine when there is no wind on weekdays, but once the wind picks up. The waters outside this small island are all dangerous areas. All fishing boats that go out to fish are withdrawn to the waters of this small island.

Although Hollow Island is not a desert island, it is uninhabited because there is no fresh water on the island.

It's Chinese New Year's Eve, and no one is likely to show up on the island.

But there are people who spend Chinese New Year's Eve on this hollow island.

And also a person, a person's Chinese New Year's Eve. How lonely and desolate it is, perhaps no one has ever understood it, and no one needs to understand it.

Lin Zhanqing has been living on Jiexin Island for a few days, and the island has prepared fresh water, food, and daily necessities.

Lin Zhanqing was alone, quietly watching the sunrise and sunset every day.

The sunrise is infinitely bright, and the sunset is dazzling.

Sunshine during the day, sea breeze at night.

All have their own unique taste.

The weather here is unpredictable, sunshine, haze, wind, rain, all according to the mood of the sea. There may even be an infinite number of variations in a single day.

Lin Zhanqing seems to like this place very much, and he likes the state here. Don't prepare anything, just rest assured, peace of mind, and enjoy all these changes. Coping is also a kind of enjoyment.

Slowly, Lin Zhanqing's mood seemed to improve.

Although there was still no smile on his face, the boredom gradually disappeared. The empty eyes gradually became bright and smart.

Although the light in the eyes was only faint and faint. However, the same is peaceful.

It's night, Chinese New Year's Eve.

Lin Zhanqing lit a fire on a simple stove made of stones. With a small iron pot, I cooked a pot of meat swallows with local characteristics.

Next to the fire, there is a tent. There is a cave not far away.

Lin Zhanqing took out a jar of wine, ate the meat swallow in a big gulp, and drank the soup that boiled the meat swallow. After eating the meat swallow, he raised the wine jar and drank it all.

He lay down with a satisfied look on his face, and his mattress was underneath. The stars are shining and the night is colorful.

Not far away, on Sagi Island, all kinds of fireworks are set off, which is extremely gorgeous.

Although in the Ring Hollow Island, all you see is some stars of different colors.

But, that's enough!
