Join the Great Wall Guard

Chapter 120 Mid-Autumn Festival Special: The Mooncakes Are Round, The Moonlight Is Round ([-])

On the night of the [-]th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the full moon, as bright and clear as a jade plate, emits soft silver light, hanging high above the night sky, lighting up the stars and igniting the nostalgia of wanderers.

The faint moonlight contains deep thoughts and concerns.

The wishes and happiness in the hearts of thousands of people are entrusted to this bright moon, sent to the horizon, and gone with the wind, adding a ray of light to the dark road, and illuminating the future for those who have never returned.

people who never came back

Standing on the Great Wall, Hua Mulan stared at the bright and perfect moon in the sky, but her heart was a little broken.

The resolute eyes, at this moment, are full of water-like tenderness and deep yearning.

"Lu Yu, are you okay in Chang'an?"

In the bright moonlight, the familiar figure seemed to appear. Hua Mulan reached out to grab him back, but found that it was nothing but a bubble.

Rarely without armor, Hua Mulan stood against the wind, her dress fluttering, her long hair fluttering, but her iron-like figure seemed soft.

"Miss Mulan."

Following the sound of light footsteps, a cold voice like a mountain flower sounded from behind, and Hua Mulan turned her head silently.

"Gara."

Seeing the beauty who seemed to be walking towards her from the painting, Hua Mulan greeted her with a smile, but her smile was a bit forced.

And Jia Luo saw the faint lovesickness on Hua Mulan's face, and naturally understood the reason.

"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, no wonder the moon is so full."

As if sighing inadvertently, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of Hua Mulan's mouth.

The moon in the sky was indeed as round as a disk, and as clean as a white jade disk.

"Yeah, today is a rare Mid-Autumn Festival, why don't you go eat mooncakes with everyone? Keeping the promise, he has made many flavors."

"However, no matter how many flavors there are, there is nothing that matches my taste."

Hua Mulan lowered her eyebrows and said silently.

The implication is that she wants to eat the moon cakes that Lu Yu personally made for her.

No matter how many delicacies there are, but without him by his side, it will be tasteless without any appetite.

"understood."

A piece of moon cake appeared out of nowhere, and Jia Luo stretched it out in front of Hua Mulan.

"This is?"

Looking at the mooncake being handed to her, Hua Mulan showed a puzzled look.

"This is a mooncake that Lu Yu sent from Chang'an, and he made it himself."

Smiling slightly, Jia Luo looked directly at Hua Mulan, without any dodge in his eyes.

"Really?"

Obviously becoming surprised, Hua Mulan stared at the mooncake in her hand again.

"The moon cake is a ball, and the moonlight is a circle. At this moment, Lu Yu must be thinking of you too. After you eat this moon cake and stare at the moon, maybe you will be reunited with him soon."

Seeing Hua Mulan can't wait to eat the mooncakes, Jia Luo just showed a fairy-like smile.

Immediately, she couldn't help raising her head, staring at the full moon in the sky and the stars around her.

It seems that we are facing the soul of this hometown

In the courtyard full of peonies, Ming Shiyin is playing chess with Yixing.

"Yixing, do you know what day is today?"

Looking at the young man facing the chess game meticulously in front of him, Ming Shiyin asked suddenly.

"Is it Mid-Autumn Festival?"

Although his mouth was a bit dull, Yi Xing never hesitated at the speed with which he clicked and dropped the chess pieces.

"Look at the moon in the sky, is it perfect like a chess piece in your hand?"

After forcing Yixing back again and again, Ming Shiyin said with a smile.

"Master, this disciple doesn't understand"

Frowning, realizing that he has been cornered, Yi Xing said a little discouraged.

"Stupid, I mean, it's time for us to eat mooncakes."

Haha laughed, Ming Shiyin waved his sleeves, and the chessboard that was originally full of chess pieces was immediately hidden.

"It's a rare Mid-Autumn Festival, so don't think too much, just eat some mooncakes."

"Tuanyuanyuan, this is also a wonderful world."

Ming Shiyin approached the house and brought a large plate of mooncakes.

"Wow, where did all these mooncakes come from?!"

Smelling the scent, Pei Qinhu was the first to rush up.

"Well, Ah Li did it."

Gongsunli walked over with a smile, and looked at the moon cakes he made on the table, showing a proud and proud smile.

"What? You made it? Forget it, I won't eat it."

When he heard that the mooncakes were actually made by Gongsunli himself, Pei Qinhu immediately felt a little queasy. He recalled the fear of being dominated by Gongsunli's dark cuisine.

"Hmph, if you don't want to eat, don't eat. Leader, Yi Xing, sister Yuhuan, you three should eat more."

Looking at the three of them expectantly, Gongsunli urged them to get their compliments on his cooking skills.

"I'm not hungry yet, I'm going to continue studying chess."

"Today's moon reminds me of my hometown, let me use the sound of pipa to soothe my inner complex."

Yang Yuhuan and Yixing walked away one after another, leaving only Ming Shiyin.

"leader"

Seeing Ah Li's sullen and aggrieved look, Ming Shiyin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Are the things Ah Li made so scary?

Although I haven't eaten it yet.

"Then I'll take a sip."

Picking up a piece of mooncake, Ming Shiyin took a bite out of it.

But

"Boss, how are you doing?"

"Li, did you forget to add oil to this mooncake?"

"Is it hard to eat?"

"Not at all."

Ming Shiyin smiled wryly, chewing the mooncakes silently, although it looked like he was chewing a stone.

At the same time, Yang Yuhuan's piano sounded, melodious and melodious, flooding into everyone's heart with the bright moonlight.

Slowly closing his eyes, Ming Shiyin appeared in front of his eyes a long, long time ago, people were displaced due to wars, and some orphans came to the desert in order to survive from the claws of the devil.There, they discovered the Great Wall and were blessed by it.Everyone has the right to live and longs for happiness, even orphans.

Lonely people, people without a hometown, under such a full moon, even if they eat moon cakes, how can there be reunion?

Old friends of the past, have you ever been well?

However, even if I have lost you, one day I will let you reappear in the world I created.

"Tiger, are the mooncakes I made so unpalatable?"

Along the way, Gongsunli asked unwillingly.

"Huh? Actually, it's not that it's unpalatable, it's just that you can't eat it at all. Didn't you see that the leader's face turned blue after eating it?"

"Hey, are you asking for a beating?"

Flexibly avoiding Gongsunli's slap, Pei Qinhu smiled wryly and said, "Really, our Yaotian is really a cold organization, we don't even have a cook."

Indeed, there is no one in Yaotian who can cook well, and the food is very poor.

Moreover, there is also Gongsunli who develops her dark dishes from time to time.

"By the way, is it dangerous for us to go directly to Di Renjie's place?"

"Since Lu Yu invited us, there should be nothing wrong. Besides, Di Renjie may not be able to recognize us."

During the conversation, the two had arrived at the place they had agreed with Lu Yu.

And at this moment, in Di Renjie's office.

"Yuanfang, add sugar!"

"Li Bai, knead the dough!"

"Master Di, take the mold!"

Lu Yu acted like a chef, while Li Bai and the others were like his assistants shouting at him. The four of them moved around in a hurry, and they had already been busy for most of the day.

"I can't see that Lu Yu still has this ability."

Shangguan Wan'er and Cheng Yaojin were visitors, so they wanted to help, but considering that Wan'er was too petite to work, and Cheng Yaojin was a big boss, he couldn't do fine work, so he just let the two of them sit aside and chat up.

"Haha, Lu Yu is simply the perfect match for women in Chang'an City. He is handsome, powerful, and good at cooking. Tsk tsk, if any girl finds him, she will definitely be happy."

Shangguan Wan'er rested her chin with one hand, looked at Lu Yu's "heroic posture" busy, and smiled.

"Ahem, no matter what, Lu Yu is just a little meat. A real man should be like me, with a strong body and spirit!"

Cheng Yaojin coughed twice, then said without blushing.

"Hey, Master Yaojin, is a real man like you just taking cross-dressing as a hobby?"

Thinking of her dark history of accidentally bumping into Cheng Yaojin before, and wearing a green and hot-eyed costume called "Love and Justice", Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help teasing.

"Ahem, men have some little habits, what's wrong?"

Cheng Yaojin turned his face away arrogantly, obviously even he himself was a bit ashamed.

"Okay, okay, you two have sat down now, come and eat mooncakes!"

While Shangguan Wan'er was bickering with Cheng Yaojin, Lu Yu walked over with a smile, his fair face was covered with a lot of flour and became even whiter.

"Oh oh oh! No wonder I smell a fragrance!"

Cheng Yaojin and Shangguan Wan'er stood up immediately, they had already smelled the tangy fragrance.

"Freshly baked mooncakes are here!"

Li Yuanfang came out first, his face was full of excitement and joy, and he saw that his left and right hands were full of plates, and there was even one on his small head.

And Li Bai and Di Renjie also came out one after another with plates.

The plate is full of moon cakes, exuding a charming fragrance.

"Okay, let's eat!"

Put the mooncakes on Di Renjie's desk, although the clean freak Di Renjie warned everyone again and again, but they didn't pay attention.

"Huaiying, it's a big deal to clean up after eating, what's the big deal."

"Hey, this is not your desk."

Although he was a bit uneasy, Di Renjie still "reluctantly" picked up a piece of mooncake and put it in his mouth.

"Well, it's delicious!"

Just took a bite, the crispy skin, with the sweet filling, immediately gave my taste buds a perfect impact.

Even Di Renjie, who has always been meticulous, couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

"Wow, Lu Yu, what a treat! It's much more delicious than Zuixianlou's!"

Li Yuanfang almost took a bite of the mooncake, and praised it while eating.

"Well, it's really good."

Li Bai also nodded repeatedly, it seems that Lu Yu's culinary skills are really extraordinary.

"While admiring the moon and eating moon cakes, it can be considered a pleasure."

He also picked up a piece of moon cake, and Lu Yu couldn't help looking at the bright moon outside the window.

Staring at the bright and perfect moon in the sky, but there is something incomplete in my heart.

Mulan, on the other side of the Great Wall, are you alright?

In the bright moonlight, that familiar figure seemed to appear. Lu Yu stretched out his hand to take it back, but found that it was nothing more than an illusion after all.

"Bangdang——"

Just as everyone was eating moon cakes and admiring the moon, there was only a loud noise from the gate, and then two figures appeared in front of everyone.

"Wow, it smells so good! I can't stand it!"

Pei Qinhu was already so hungry that his stomach was screaming, and he rushed to the table following the fragrance of the mooncakes.

"Hey, who are you?!"

Protecting the mooncake behind him vigilantly, Di Renjie looked at this somewhat familiar but unfamiliar face.

"Hey, Master Di, we have dealt with each other before."

Pei Qinhu scratched his hair and laughed.

"It's you?"

After staring at Pei Qinhu for a few times, Di Renjie finally recognized him as the boxer of Liuhe Boxing Gym.

"Then what about you, and who are you?"

"My name is A Li, and I'm a dancer in Changlefang."

Compared with Pei Qinhu's recklessness and rudeness, Gongsunli obviously knew more about etiquette, and bowed slightly to everyone.

"Both of them are my friends. I just asked them to come over and eat moon cakes together. After all, the more people there are, the more lively it is."

Lu Yu came over and patted Di Renjie's vigilant shoulder.

""

Didn't refuse, Di Renjie just said silently: "Don't make my office dirty." Then he ate his own mooncake again.

Is it lively?

It's okay to make the cold office more lively.

"Wow, Lu Yu, did you make this?! This is too delicious!"

Pei Qinhu stuffed a mooncake into his mouth with one hand, and devoured it voraciously, as if he had been hungry for several days and hadn't eaten.

"Hehe, in fact, we also helped a lot."

Li Bai interrupted suddenly, looking at Pei Qinhu and Gongsunli with sharper eyes, but quickly disappeared.

Mid-Autumn Festival, safe and sound, good reunion.

"Hey, Tiger, you stole my favorite flavor!"

Seeing that Pei Qinhu snatched away his favorite taste, Li Yuanfang was not to be outdone, and immediately snatched it back from him.

"Hey, little mouse, whoever snatches it will own it, hehe, now it's mine again!"

Relying on his advantage of being taller and longer than Li Yuanfang's arms, Pei Qinhu snatched the mooncakes. Next, he staged a battle with Yuanfang.

"Hey, you guys, stop making trouble!"

Of course, it was Di Renjie who got angry, and Li Bai, Shangguan Wan'er and others couldn't help laughing.

But when everyone was not paying attention, Lu Yu and Gongsunli came outside the house.

"A Li, take the rest of the mooncakes with you later."

"Hey, don't you eat?"

Seeing Lu Yu's deep smile, Gongsunli said in a puzzled way.

"The orphans in the nursing home should eat these mooncakes."

With a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, Lu Yu said.

"You already know that those mooncakes in the health care center come from Zuixianlou?"

A little surprised, but Ah Li's expression quickly calmed down.

Lu Yu's observation ability is still so powerful.

"Those orphans showed such satisfaction just because they ate mooncakes. For them, the greatest happiness is nothing more than this?"

"A Li, I don't want to see anyone cry, whether it's a human or a demon."

"Wandering solitary birds have the right to pursue their happiness, and also have the right to live."

wandering lone bird

Ah Li couldn't help but think of his past, the days when no one could rely on him.

He himself was once an orphan in a nursing home, and it was because of this that Ah Li understood the joys, sorrows and angers of the world better, and did not want to see the crying and mourning of life.

The original hatred of humans gradually dissipated.What Ah Li wants is not revenge, but a world where everyone can obtain warmth and happiness regardless of human beings or demons.

Similarly, maybe my own happiness can be found in such a world, right?

However, seeing Lu Yu's determined expression, Gongsunli found that such happiness seemed to be by his side, not the "perfect world".

Lu Yu's dream actually matched his own.

"There is no hometown, no old friends, but as long as the miss is still there, even if I face this bright moonlight alone, my heart will be full."

Whether it is moonlight or moon cakes, they are carriers of lovesickness and happiness.

The moon cake is a ball, and the moonlight is a circle. The combination of the two may not be able to make a person realize the happiness in his heart, but the warmth from the reunion can melt the darkness and coldness buried in the heart. In order to pursue a higher beauty, work hard with.

That is the true meaning of reunion.

Nung, moon and new moon.

Gazing at the bright and clear moon, the figure that has been imprinted in my heart all this time gradually appeared in front of me.The happy smile that was revealed because of the reunion is so vivid and real
