Chapter 109: Dragon Hand (2)
The waning moon hung in the treetops, illuminating the somewhat bleak courtyard.
The gray and yellow path is full of withered yellow flowers, and it is sad to look at it.
The thin wind, in addition to bringing a trace of coolness, is also like the infinite lingering meditation, which closely troubles people.
Holding the Shui Yue Sword, Shui Lingyue walked slowly along the path, a few locks of green silk behind her ears were gently blowing in the wind, and her face was as cold as ice, as usual, without the slightest expression.
On such a quiet late autumn night, a cold woman walked with a sword under the moon, I don't know what is on her mind?
Stepping on the fine and withered yellow of the ground, unconsciously, she came to the front yard, which was the small courtyard where the wind and bamboo lived.
Stopping and looking, there was no sound inside, and there was no light, Shui Lingyue paused for a moment, and then walked forward again.
The yellow flowers on the ground seemed to be attached to her, dancing with the wind, forming a small whirl, not far from her feet, gently swirling.
It was the breath of the wind, and it was afraid that others would not understand its mind, so it deliberately stirred the yellow flowers, and thought that it was holding something.
Shui Lingyue looked down at the little spin, and had to stop.
Suddenly, there was a "squeak" behind him, as if the door had been opened, and in such a quiet night, a faint sound sounded doubly clear.
Shui Lingyue's heart moved, and she raised her head, but she didn't turn around.
The small whirl under his feet, as if he knew that no one was paying attention to it anymore, suddenly dispersed and disappeared, leaving only those stirred yellow flowers, recording the traces of the fluctuations that had been made.
Then, I heard a person shouting softly: "Water Woman, please stay." ”
Hearing this, Shui Lingyue's body shook, and she turned around slightly, but when she saw Jing Chenzi's face full of anxiety, she walked forward quickly and said, "Water Woman, it's really good to meet you here." After speaking, he continued: "I don't know if the Water Lady has ever seen the Wind Shaoxia." ”
Shui Lingyue glanced at the small building behind him and shook her head slightly.
Seeing this, Jing Chenzi became more and more anxious, and said: "The poor Dao will go upstairs and downstairs, in front of the courtyard and behind the courtyard, and I have searched all over the place, but I haven't seen the figure of Feng Shaoxia." ”
When Shui Lingyue heard this, as usual, she said coldly: "Xu is out." ”
Jing Chenzi shook his head hard, as if he resolutely denied this speech, and said a little faster: "I have been here several times this day, and I have not seen anyone else. ”
Shui Lingyue was silent and said lightly: "Could it be that you are going to Baizhang Qiongtai?" ”
Jing Chenzi seemed to have received great news, her eyes lit up, and she said happily: "The Water Lady saw him leave?"
Shui Lingyue nodded, and said in a calm and cold tone: "In the early morning, I saw it at the bridge. ”
Jing Chenzi suddenly said, "Do you know where he went?"
Shui Lingyue shook her head lightly and said, "Later, Miss Chu came. ”
Jing Chenzi glanced at Shui Lingyue, "oh", turned his head to look at Baizhang Peak, and said, "Water Woman, you have a favor, I don't know if you can help the poor Dao?"
Shui Lingyue hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Dao Chief, please speak." ”
Jing Chenzi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Can the Water Lady go to Baizhang Peak with Poor Dao to see if Feng Shaoxia is over there." As he spoke, he looked embarrassed, and said: "At such a night, it is not good for the poor road to go alone." It's the place where the azalea fairy lives alone. ”
Shui Lingyue didn't answer immediately, but raised her eyes to look at Baizhang Peak, which looked a little cool under the moonlight, and then nodded slightly.
Baizhang Peak.
On top of the Qiongtai.
It was empty and deserted.
Shui Lingyue and Jing Chenzi stood for a moment, and they had already determined that Feng Shuzhu and Chu Qing were not here.
Jing Chenzi took a few steps inside, looked around, and said, "If they weren't here, where would they go?" After speaking, he glanced at Shui Lingyue, who was standing silently on the side, thought about it, and said, "If they don't go to Xiongfei Peak, I'll go over there to find it." ”
As soon as the words fell, before Jing Chenzi could take a step, he heard a sound of breaking through the air, and on the edge of Qiongtai, the white light flashed, but it was Xiao Jiu who came with a little fat bear bag.
Jing Chenzi looked at it, his eyes were happy, and he stepped forward quickly and said, "Xiao Jiu, where did you come from? Have you ever seen Feng Shaoxia and Miss Chu?"
Xiao Jiu put down the little fat bear bag, and said with a little urgency on his face: "We are also looking for Qing'er, but I don't know if she went to Guiyunguan with Brother Feng?"
When Jing Chenzi heard this, he blinked twice, and said, "We also just came out of Guiyunguan and found this place all the way. As he spoke, he added, "Have you ever been to Xiongfei Peak?"
When Xiao Jiu heard this, his brows furrowed, and he shook his head again and again, his expression was vaguely a little worried, and said: "On this day, we have been back and forth between Baizhang Peak and Xiongfei Peak many times, but we haven't seen anyone. ”
Jing Chenzi lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said: "In this way, it is very likely that these two people are going out to play, if they leave Tiantai Mountain, Feng Shaoxia will definitely not fail to greet Poor Dao." ”
Xiao Jiu thought for a while, and said, "Then they will definitely return to Baizhang Peak, let's stay here and wait." ”
Jing Chenzi thought for a while, nodded and said, "The two of them should not encounter any tricky things together, and there are some other things in the poor road, so they have to return to Yunguan to recover their lives first." As he spoke, he glanced at Shui Lingyue and said, "Water Woman, I bothered you to run away in vain." ”
Shui Lingyue stood on the outermost part of Qiongtai and said lightly: "Dao Chief, let's go back first." ”
When Jing Chenzi heard this, he didn't say much, and after saying goodbye to the two, he left.
Shui Lingyue glanced at Xiao Jiu and Xiao Fat Bear Bag, and did not say anything, but flew towards Xiongfei Peak alone.
Stepping on the cold moonlight, along the winding corridor, Shui Lingyue walked forward silently, looking for the elegant fragrance wafting in the breeze, and unconsciously came to the cloud brocade rhododendron forest behind the house.
Even in such late autumn, the sea of flowers is still full of bloom, on the branches, between the leaves, one by one, one by one, one by one, spouting with beauty, fighting Fangfei.
But in the eyes of Shui Lingyue, under such a moonlit night and a blurry light, there was a little more tranquility in the sea of flowers. She stepped into the flower forest, but her eyes lit up, and she saw a woman in a lilac tulle skirt, holding a small bamboo basket, looking up at the flower tree, as if looking for something.
The woman seemed to feel someone coming behind her, so she stopped her hand and turned to look at Shui Lingyue. She seemed to be shocked by Shui Lingyue's unique cold temperament, and after just one glance, those lilac eyes never left, standing there, surprisingly quiet.
Shui Lingyue's face was as cold as ever, there were no emotional fluctuations on her frosty cheeks, and she slowly stepped forward with her sword.
The woman's gaze fell on the Water Moon Sword, her body couldn't help but be shocked, and her face slowly sank, and she was extremely uneasy.
Shui Lingyue had already seen the other party's emotional changes, and she also stopped and stopped moving forward.
The woman looked Shui Lingyue up and down and said, "Are you from Shui Yue Palace?"
Shui Lingyue nodded slightly, and asked the same: "Are you the Rhododendron Immortal Yun Dongbai?"
Yun Dongbai nodded, his gaze fell back to the Shui Yue Sword, and said, "Shui Ruoli is your master?"
Asked by this, Shui Lingyue was stunned at first, as if this was the first time she had heard outsiders mention the name of Master Shuiyue, but then said, "It is the first master." ”
Hearing this, Yun Dongbai's surprise obviously surpassed that of Shui Lingyue, and he was full of doubts: "Ancestor?"
Shui Lingyue nodded, her cold face turned slightly pale, obviously she didn't want to mention the matter of Master Shuiyue, but she still said in a low voice: "The first master has already been feathered. ”
When Yun Dongbai heard this, all kinds of emotions flashed between his eyebrows, and then he turned his gaze to the ethereal and cold night sky, and muttered, "Unexpectedly, she actually left first." After a while, his expression returned to his usual blandness, and he said, "Then, you were also invited to the mountain with Qing'er?"
Shui Lingyue has always been cold and doesn't like to talk much, especially for people who are not familiar with it, so she naturally just nodded.
Yun Dongbai saw it in his eyes, so he didn't say more, but stood silently in the distance, his eyes deep, as if he was silent in a memory.
Shui Lingyue didn't stop any longer, turned around and walked back, but Yun Dongbai shouted behind him: "Are you looking for them?"
Shui Lingyue was stunned for a moment, and did not look back, of course she understood in her heart that they that Yun Dongbai was referring to were Chu Qing and Feng Shuzhu, and then stopped and listened to Yun Dongbai again: "Bairi, I met them next to the stream at the foot of the mountain, and the Yunjin azalea bush. ”
I don't know why, after hearing this news, Shui Lingyue had an indescribable feeling in her heart, and then thought about it, and felt that she was really worried, what kind of accident would there be with the Taoism of those two, and she didn't feel a faint wry smile on the corner of her mouth, shook her head lightly, and walked back.
Obviously, Shui Lingyue's pace was much faster than when she came, but as soon as she walked to the corridor, she saw Xiao Jiu'er walking over from the opposite side with a little chubby bear bag.
Xiao Jiu stepped forward and said, "Water Woman, Brother Feng, they haven't come back yet, even the azalea fairy is nowhere to be seen, will there be any accidents?"
Shui Lingyue glanced at Xiao Jiu and said, "Yundong Bai is behind the house, I just heard her say that she had met Qing'er and them during the day, and I thought they were playing." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jiu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and just walked forward, about to go to the back of the house, but saw the little fat bear bag walking between the two, timidly glanced at Shui Lingyue twice, pointed at himself, and turned around and pointed at Gui Yunfeng.
Xiao Jiu immediately understood, and said, "Bag bag, don't make trouble, the water woman has time to take you to Guiyunguan." Besides, we have to wait for Brother Feng and them. ”
The little fat bear bag turned to look at Xiao Jiu, as if he was very lost, and turned around again, looking at Shui Lingyue, who was as cold as frost and snow, before he reluctantly took a step back, but the pace seemed so heavy.
Next, the corners of Shui Lingyue's mouth moved, and a voice that made the little fat bear bag feel unexpected and excited sounded: "I'm about to return to Yunguan." ”
When Xiao Jiu heard this, he also said in disbelief: "This, this, Water Woman...... ,”
The little fat bear bag no longer paid attention to what Xiao Jiu said, and ran to the feet of Shui Lingyue at great speed, with a pair of eyes the size of mung beans, showing great gratitude, raising his two front paws, and making a gesture to be picked up.
Shui Lingyue smiled faintly, flicked her sleeves, rolled up the little fat bear bag, and turned away.
