Bodhi

It's night, the moon is in the middle of the sky, the brilliance is clear and the jade is cold.

Su Xuechan nestled in the heart of the tree, looking up at the bright moon hanging high in the night, and the bodhi leaves all over the tree rustled.

He is homesick.

Thousands of years later, on countless full moon nights, the whole family will sit under the never-fading azure magnolia tree. The large petals of white jade-like flowers are like snow falling on the world, and the moonlight is like a veil, covering the earth gently. .

Under the cover of the flowers and the moon, the family members talked a lot of affectionate words together. Su Cheng pointed out the bottlenecks in their practice, while Su Lanji laughed while listening, and taught Su Xianxian and Su Xixi some interesting little spells.Once, they turned all the fallen magnolia petals into fluttering snow-white butterflies. The butterflies swayed dreamlike light powder and flew to the night sky, to the wilderness, and to the laurel toad palace full of light...

But now, the flowers are gone, and even the moon in the sky is not the same moon anymore.

When will he be able to return home, back to Qingqiu?

"What's wrong?" Li Yuan's voice sounded from under the tree, "You're in a bad mood?"

He looked down and saw that Li Yuan was wearing a robe, his eyes were vaguely gentle, he hurriedly said: "You still have wounds, so don't come out and move around, be careful not to scratch the wound again."

"I'm just injured, not disabled." Li Yuan sat down under the tree, "Why are you unhappy?"

"You are in the bedroom, how do you know that I am unhappy?" Su Xuechan asked.

Li Yuan smiled slightly: "There is a red line, even if you go to the ends of the earth, I can feel it."

"Actually, it's fine," Su Xuechan hugged her knees and muttered, "I'm just homesick...that's all."

Li Yuan was quite surprised: "Homesick?" He thought Su Xuechan was missing the old days on the edge of the cliff, so he couldn't help being silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "That's right, where you stayed before, the sky is high, the earth is far away, and there is no freedom. It is indeed a lot better than being in the floating Wang Yang now."

At this time, a dark cloud floated from the sky, not only covering the brilliance of the full moon, but also covering Li Yuan's expression in the shadow, making it difficult for people to see clearly.Su Xuechan was about to say that he was thinking about it, but then he thought about it and wanted to tease him, so he prepared his tone and pretended to beg him: "Then can you send me back to have a look?"

The night wind blew past, the dark clouds became thicker, and the light became dimmer. Li Yuan's voice could not distinguish between emotions and anger in the darkness: "Send you back, and then, how long do you plan to stay there before coming back?"

no response?Su Xuechan secretly looked at him, determined to make some serious news, and whispered: "I don't know...Actually, I really don't want to live..."

Before the words fell, Li Yuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and the power of the water dragon was like a wave, grabbing the bodhi tree's body!

Su Xuechan was overwhelmed by his suppressed anger and jealousy almost in an instant. Li Yuan's heart was burning like a fire, and he rushed over from the other end of the red line, continuously forcing Su Xuechan on this end until he couldn't breathe. The beast, which was severely injured, gritted its teeth and said, "What are you going to say? You don't want to stay here, you don't want to be with me, do you?!"

At that moment, Li Yuan even felt the pain of being betrayed. After all, he once told him that he liked him and that he would take care of him by turning into a human body, but now he is going to break his promise!

Su Xuechan was taken aback. He originally wanted to make a harmless joke and test Li Yuan again, but he was so angry that he endured the burning in his heart and shouted loudly: "Don't be angry! I Just kidding! Seriously, calm down!"

Li Yuan held the wound on his chest with one hand, gasped wildly and quickly, the power of the water dragon dissipated in an uproar, he staggered back a few steps, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Wait!" Su Xuechan's heart was beating wildly. When he came back to his senses, he stretched out a branch and grabbed his clothes, "Don't go!"

Li Yuan turned his head abruptly, his golden pupils were like two blazing flames, he roared angrily: "Is it fun?! Do you think this is very interesting?!"

"No..." Su Xuechan was at a loss, unable to argue, "I... I'm sorry..."

It was really hard to talk about this appearance, he sighed, the spirit body got out of the tree, swam to Li Yuan, and opened his arms to hug him.

"I'm sorry." He said softly, "I just wanted to make a joke. I didn't expect you to be so angry... What's wrong with you, don't be like this..."

Like coaxing a child, he kissed Li Yuan's side face again and again, "You won't be angry if you kiss, okay?"

Li Yuan turned his head away, but kept panting and didn't speak.

Seeing that he seemed to have calmed down a bit, Su Xuechan pulled him to sit down in front of the bodhi tree.He whispered, "Why are you mad at what I said? It's not like you normally, what's the matter with you?"

After a while, Li Yuanfang said: "I don't know."

"do not know?"

Li Yuan pressed his forehead, and finally calmed down completely, he whispered: "The emotions just now seem to be out of my control at all, I heard you say you want to go, you want to leave here, I feel scared and angry at the same time... ..."

"Did the red thread affect you?" Su Xuechan didn't dare to let go of him, but still hugged him.

Li Yuan nodded, then shook his head: "Half and half, it's because of the red line... and because of myself."

Su Xuechan looked at him and suddenly realized a problem.

Whether it's fate or coincidence, their red line is inseparable from life to life. Li Yuan has never loved anyone before, and he doesn't know how to love. In terms of strength, he can call the wind and call the rain, standing at the top of the prehistoric world. But for love, he is just a clumsy groping novice, reckless and immature, stumbling on the rough wilderness.

—— But the more this happened, the more worried Su Xuechan became.

He just said a few words, and Li Yuan's reaction was so strong. However, he has not been emotionally hurt yet, and he doesn't know that he is destined to leave him in this life. The damage will be deeper.

He hugged him, dazed for a while, not knowing what to say.

Li Yuan stared at the ground in front of him and didn't look at him. After a while, he suddenly said vaguely: "I'm still angry."

Su Xuechan: "Huh?"

After reacting, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and kissed him on the face again: "I'm still a spirit body now, can you feel me kissing you?"

Li Yuan snorted lightly and didn't speak.

Su Xuechan hesitated for a while, then said softly: "Tell me the truth, have you ever liked someone before?"

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows: "No."

"Not once?" He still didn't give up, "Isn't that impossible, there are so many people in the Three Realms who like you..."

"Why, are you questioning me?" Li Yuan said coldly, "And I don't have anyone I like right now, so don't be too sentimental."

Su Xuechan couldn't help it all of a sudden, laughed loudly and said, "What are you so awkward about!"

"You can still laugh?!" Li Yuan said angrily, "Don't think this is just over!"

"Okay... let's be serious." Su Xuechan hugged Li Yuan's neck with his spirit body, and said solemnly, "If you encounter something in the future, calm down, okay? I know I was wrong just now, I shouldn't tease you , but if the existence of the red thread will have such a serious impact on you... then I would rather you take the dragon's blood back and let me turn into a pile of powder right now."

Li Yuan suddenly turned his head to look at him, "You...!"

"I'm not joking, I'm serious." Su Xuechan said sternly, "I don't want you to show your love for me by being irrational and hurting yourself, because I love you, so if you hurt yourself, it's tantamount to making my heart hurt indirectly.

"——If you love me too, please do me a favor and don't do anything that will make me sad."

The sea breeze is gently rippling, and the clouds that have migrated continuously through the night reveal the true face of the moon from behind the silky smoke. The moonlight wanders mistyly on the boundless sea, like a layer of milky white mist.

Li Yuan was quiet for a moment, and then reluctantly responded: "...I don't love you, so don't be sentimental after saying that."

Su Xuechan smiled, and kissed him on the face again, "In short... no matter what happens in the future, calm down first and don't get excited, okay? Look, the wound is oozing blood again..."

Li Yuan lowered his thick eyelashes, and said in a low voice, "...um."

On the second day, a rare visitor suddenly came to Silent Dragon Palace.

The white light symbolizing vitality flashes across the sky, the snow cranes are flying, the white deer is light, and a line of majestic chariots and chariots are slowly driving towards the Dragon Palace from the clouds and mists. The azure blue sky was dyed with a glow.

Su Xuechan was sleeping soundly in the heart of the tree, and was suddenly awakened by the movement, and could not help but climb on the canopy of the tree eagerly looking forward, the car landed in front of the Dragon Palace, and saw the canopy covered heavily, and the precious fans were opened layer by layer, and a figure in green clothes walked out from inside , the visitor raised his voice and said with a smile: "Old friend, why is it so deserted here, and there is not even a single attendant to greet him?"

His voice was moist and gentle, making people never forget it after hearing it once. At this moment, Li Yuan's voice also came from afar in the bedroom: "Gumang, what are you doing here?"

Su Xuechan suddenly realized, he said why the voice of the visitor sounded familiar, it turned out that he was the Chunshen Jumang from thousands of years ago!

He also met God Jumang in the later life, when Li Yuan's soul was damaged, so Jumang came to see him twice as a doctor, but it was just a glimpse from a distance, and he couldn't observe it closely like now .

Gou Mang is holding a willow whip as green as jade, and his face is as handsome and gentle as a spring day, and the corners of his eyes and brows even have a bit of intoxicating romantic meaning.He turned away the maids on the left and right, and walked towards Li Yuan with a smile on his face. As soon as he walked away from the bodhi tree's real body, Su Xuechan felt a warm heat blowing towards his face, like a pleasant spring breeze, which made him unable to bear it. Live and stretch your body.

Gou Mang seemed to have sensed something, looked in his direction with a smile, cupped his hands to Li Yuan and said, "I heard that Ying Long Shen is full of peach blossoms recently, I still don't believe it, but when I saw him today, I realized that someone didn't lie to me!"

"So, why are you visiting today?" Li Yuan asked.

Jumang waved the willow whip: "Why, I don't remember the hunting day once in a hundred years, and I need someone to remind you?"

Li Yuan glanced at the direction where Su Xuechan was, and said with a headache: "Go inside and talk."

Huh?Su Xuechan raised his ears, and just about to listen to their conversation, he saw two people walking towards the hall one after the other. He chuckled lightly, and the roots drilled out of the soil in a familiar way, and followed them quietly. Walk forward.

"Curiosity is very strong." Gou Mang said in a low voice.

Li Yuan's expression was indifferent, but there was a smile in his eyes: "Leave him alone."

Su Xuechan manipulated the slender tree root, stuck it on the crystal pane with great effort, and eavesdropped on the voices inside. After a while, he heard Jumang's voice coming from inside: "... how is the injury? ?”

Sitting on the couch, Li Yuan did not hide his condition from him, "There is no medicine for the wound caused by Chi You's sword qi, so stay close, and it will always heal."

"Your dragon's hard work is still on that little sapling outside," Gou Mang, as the god of spring, spoke of Su Xuechan's real body, with a bit of the elder's love for the younger in his tone, "It seems that the red thread is also connected. ?”

"Well." Li Yuan nodded, "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about your business. Why is the hunting day open again?"

Gou Mang held the teacup and said with a smile: "Chi You's battle has caused turmoil for hundreds of years, and the beasts in the barren land have also been recuperating for hundreds of years. Now that Chi You dies, it will naturally be their turn to take care of them. There is no delay."

"The Jiuli tribe has long since fallen apart. What is there to compare this year?" Li Yuan said casually. "In the past years, the fights were fierce. Now the Dihong clan is the only one. Is there any need for this?"

"There is no Jiuli, and there is Dongyi, who has just come out these years," Gou Mang said with a leisurely smile, "It's a holy man-made thing, something that came out of the innate primordial womb. Heaven will not treat them too badly."

Li Yuan said impatiently: "Do you need me to come forward?"

Gou Mang raised his eyebrows: "Don't you need to come forward?"

Li Yuan understood that Gou Mang came to Yinglong Palace in person, not necessarily because of his own intention, but because Emperor Hong wanted to use the sharpness of his knife to frighten the descendants of Jiuli tribe after he killed Chi You.

"Don't worry, there's still a while," Jumang said softly, "You can also take your red thread to learn more. Children like to be lively, so there's nothing wrong with going to have fun."

Li Yuan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand."

"Okay," Gou Mang flicked his robe, put down the teacup and stood up, "The meaning has been conveyed, I won't stay any longer."

"Would you like to sit down for a while?"

Gou Mang laughed, showing his white teeth: "Forget it! Sitting in such a cold Dragon Palace is very sad."

"Besides," he lowered his voice, "the world of two people, I don't want to disturb you for too long, so farewell!"

Li Yuan couldn't help it, and also laughed: "I won't be sent away until my injury is healed, forgive me."

Gou Mang waved his hand smartly, and walked out swinging the willow whip. Before leaving, he stopped beside Su Xuechan's tree, blew lightly, and sent it to the bodhi tree.

"Come here in a hurry, I have nothing to give, I will give you a breath of spring, I wish you a long life and grow old together!"

The warm current flows along every branch of the tree, and every vein of leaf travels around the body. Before Su Xuechan could thank him, he saw Goumang's body turned into white light and flew into the Linglong incense car. Lu Youyou, you left the Dragon Palace as you did when you came here.

As the halo circulated, for the first time, his spiritual body felt almost down-to-earth.
