The day before leaving Lin'an, in the evening, Xiong Jingyu took Li Congcong and Wu Fatzi into the house together, saying that he would take Ji Changfeng out to watch the temple fair.

"It's just outside the city in the apricot blossom forest! There are fireworks to see—"

When Ji Changfeng heard this, he was interested. However, when I thought about it, I was not interested, and in the end I refused and brushed off their good intentions.

Because of this temple fair, many people in Lin'an City closed their doors early and went out with their families to have fun.

Before the twilight was over, there was no sound in all directions.

After this quiet, Ji Changfeng meditated even more into his mind, completely forgetting about external objects, closing his eyes, galloping abroad, and when he opened his eyes, he was already sweating profusely, and when he looked up at the sky, it was completely dark.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and the knock was particularly eye-catching. Pushing the door open, it was the sound of white tide.

"Father-in-law, son-in-law ••••••"

Bai Chaosheng came into the house on his own, went around, and asked him, "Why don't you go with you to see the temple fair?"

Ji Changfeng asked rhetorically: "Then why don't you go?"

Bai Chaosheng was stunned for a moment, turned his head to find a place to sit down, and replied, "I'm not happy to be too lively." ”

Ji Changfeng responded: "Me too." ”

The white tide voice glanced at his crimson face and asked, "Are you cultivating?"

Ji Changfeng nodded.

Bai Chao said: "Why are you so diligent? I heard that you have been practicing Qi with Miss Xiong and them in the past few days." ”

Ji Changfeng listened, and he also came over, and sat down next to the sound of the white tide. Bai Chaosheng smelled the smell of sweat on his body, felt a little uncomfortable, and sat down for a while.

"If I don't work hard, how can I catch up with them? ”

At this time, a man outside the window came to the street to beat the gong, and it was the second watch.

"Cong Cong is a family of divine blood, and his cultivation talent is already extremely high, he is only twelve years old, and he is already the eighth order of the Golden Wheel; ”

Bai Chaosheng nodded and said, "Yes, they are all talented and from famous families. ”

Ji Changfeng sighed and continued: "So, you also fancy these places for them, so you let them enter the Ming Hall without examination." But my teachers are average, my talent is average, and I don't have any background, so I'm far from them. ”

"That's why you're so diligent, you're afraid of falling behind?" Bai Chaosheng was a little moved, and looked sideways at the people around him.

"The stupid bird flies first, that's the way. Moreover, I also agreed to be your bodyguard—alas, it's so embarrassing for me, the famous Mingtang young guard—I'm really afraid of ruining your reputation. ”

After saying that, Ji Changfeng laughed to himself, with a little self-deprecation.

Bai Chaosheng also laughed. Both of them were a little drunk at this time, as if they had drunk wine, and wanted to get closer.

It's not enough, after all, it's in a room, the upper is the house, the lower is the floor, and there are thick walls around the front and back, left and right, which is not comfortable. Because of the white tide voice proposed, "Let's go and sit on the roof." ”

Ji Changfeng happily agreed. So the two of them went out together, and each of them performed a light feat, and rode up to the ridge of the roof.

Look up, a star, a cloud, a sky. Like a peacock blue satin, it was cut and floated.

Weaver Niang inadvertently, knocked over the bamboo incense burner on the satin, and when it was a thousand points, the ash head that was not extinguished was sprinkled on it.

Satin, peacock blue, fluttering satin, peacock blue, fluttering, sprinkled with thousands of fireworks - such a starry sky.

They sat on a high place and could see the whole city of Lin'an. At this time, most of the city was dark, except for the east part outside the city, where the lights were as bright as day, and the voices of people were boiling, and the traffic was like weaving.

There was a wind blowing up, Ji Changfeng seemed to be drunk, pointed to the place in the east and said, "It's really like the palace in the sky has fallen." ”

Bai Chaosheng laughed and said, "Why don't you go over and have a look?"

Ji Changfeng turned his head to look at him, a little strange: "Aren't you, don't you like to be lively?"

"It's a joke. Bai Chaosheng laughed, "Now that it's over, it's a little troublesome." ”

After a pause, he sighed again: "It's so fast, I'm leaving." Remember, that day in the apricot blossom forest, you led a horse••••••"

Before he finished speaking, he listened to the voices of the people around him. Looking back, the man was already crimson.

Bai Chaosheng stopped talking. The smile on his face did not decrease, and he changed his words and said:

"On that day, accompany me to the river to set off cannons, thank you. ”

Ji Changfeng was stunned and did not answer.

Bai Chaosheng continued: "You were in a hurry to leave that day, right? But I was still forced to pull and stopped for so long. ”

Ji Changfeng smiled embarrassedly: "It turns out, you can see it." ”

Bai Chaosheng hooked his lips slightly, and lowered his head, as if looking at a certain place in the city, as if he hadn't seen anything, a pair of eyes became two pools of water, and the shadows of some pavilions were originally reflected, and the wind blew, and a few stripes swayed, and disappeared again.

He squinted his eyes slightly in the wind, drunk, and a little vaguely: "Actually, I just want you to stay with me for a while." ”

"Huh?" Ji Changfeng straightened his upper body and leaned closer, but he didn't hear clearly.

"That day, I thought it was the last time I saw you. It's just-you weren't going to participate in the Taiyi Recruitment Martial Arts Tournament at the time, I didn't keep you, it's okay, I'm •••••• unhappy. ”

At the end of the words, the voice became quieter, and the person turned his face away, as if he was afraid of seeing it.

It was the first time he had said such heartfelt words to someone. In the past, he was the young master of Mingtang, and he was a genius boy who shook the Xuanmen.

But at this time, he felt where he was, and felt that he was a living person named "Bai Chaosheng".

"Childe ••••••" Ji Changfeng also seemed to feel that the sound of the white tide was different from the past, but his heart was suddenly stupid, and he didn't know what to say.

"Do you know why I'm asking you to be my bodyguard?" asked Bai Chaosheng.

Ji Changfeng thought about it for a while, and said a little unspeakably: "Do you want me to accompany you more ••••••••••••"

When Bai Chaosheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. While laughing, he patted the man on the shoulder: "What do you think-it's so silly haha-"

Ji Changfeng's face turned red, and he said again: "Is it because I am innocent now and have no reliance, so you can use me?"

Bai Chaosheng stopped laughing, waved his hand and said, "It's just a little." More about you. ”

"Am I?"

"Yes. You look silly and stupid, and there is no city, which is good. Bai Chaosheng said slowly, "As a guard, the most important thing is not kung fu cultivation, but temperament quality." There are too many twists and turns, even if he is a top master of the Manichi wheel level, it is not stable to use it around. ”

When he had finished speaking, he turned around and saw that the man was staring at him blankly, so he put his hand on his head and said:

"I hear you. I trust you - don't let me down. ”

Ji Changfeng was deducted by him, came back to his senses, turned his head over, and babbled a few times, and then said solemnly: "Bai Gongzi, I am stupid and •••••• talk."

"Don't talk about stupidity. ”

"No, no, how can I be silent if you express it like this. Ji Changfeng argued:

"It is not an exaggeration to say that I have nothing in my current situation, but fortunately, you have been taking care of me, so that I have a place to go. My Ji Changfeng is an ordinary person, if you want to say something, it's just a brave and loyal.

"You are relieved, since I have promised to be your guard, I will be loyal and do my best to protect you, and I will never betray you!"

Bai Chaosheng listened to this bold words, and his heart was enthusiastic, but his face was still normal, and he was also suspicious verbally: "It's easy to say, who knows what kind of heart you will have behind you." ”

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Ji Changfeng hurriedly argued: "The conscience of heaven and earth, I have nothing to say-" Then he raised his hand to swear.

Seeing this, Bai Chaosheng hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "Okay, just say it verbally, this oath can't be made casually." ”

Ji Changfeng put his hand down: "Then you trust me?"

"It's up to you to behave. Bai Chao's voice was sneering, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the east head and shouted, "Look—fireworks—"

As soon as Ji Changfeng turned around, it was a trailing cigarette tail that rose up in a long way, peeled it in the air, and sprouted for thousands of miles.

All of a sudden, there was a forest of apricot blossoms in the sky and an apricot blossom forest on the ground, and people saw it at the moment, as if they had become a piece of red in it, lingering between the two places, and they didn't know the heavens and the earth for a while.

Ji Changfeng saw Bai Chaosheng staggering and stood up, and muttered to that piece of heaven and earth:

"The fireworks must be extinguished in an instant, and the fragrance of Mingde will last forever. ”
