catch the rabbit

It was the first snowfall in the capital, and the sun was not yet full. There were piles of snow and ice everywhere, and few people even walked around on the streets.

Compared with Wuyan Mountain, this kind of cold is as warm as spring.

Jiang Tiaotiao left Xueyi in a remote alley on Fushou Street, turned around and ran towards Yueranju before even using the spell to hide it.

He had never run so briskly before, the cloak on his shoulders was rattling by the wind from his running, fresh snow splashed under his feet, flying up and down like fine beads.

There was no one on the street, and it was so quiet that you could hear your own heartbeat.Jiang Tiaotiao clutched the life-saving Feng Zhilan plant on his chest, for fear that if he let go, the immortal guard of Wuyan Mountain would catch up and snatch it away.

He almost crashed into the gate of Yueranju.

"Baoxiu!" he shouted loudly, "Baoxiu!"

No one answered him.

The inside of Yueranju was as deserted as the outside, with no lights on.Baoxiu was nowhere to be seen, and even the cut-out paper figures were silent.

They didn't have much magic power to support them, and they all fell crookedly in their chairs, and they couldn't run to answer the door as happily as before.

Only the little book boy from Qingyan Academy was still there, and he was curled up on the recliner and sleeping soundly with a thick blanket on his body.

There were a bunch of paper dragonflies scattered on the table, Jiang Tiaotiao picked one up and found his name written on it.

He had no idea how long he had been gone.From this point of view, Baoxiu must have gone out to find him.

If Baoxiu knew that he had returned safely and got Feng Zhilan, I don't know if her jaw would drop in shock.There are also Xiaolan and A Ling who are probably speechless by his actions.

Going to Wuyan Mountain alone and snatching the treasure of the Immortal Monarch under the noses of the four Immortal Guards is really a terrible thing.

Jiang Tiaotiao understood that he had caused a huge disaster this time, and even if his friends knew the inside story, there was nothing they could do to help him.

"Huangcai, Baoxiu, Xiaolan—"

He habitually shouted their names, but the surroundings were empty.

Jiang Tiaotiao felt that this was not the Yueran residence in his impression.

It used to be very lively here, Xiaolan and A Ling would quarrel, the prodigal son would come to Yanpu every three days, Huangcai imitated other people's abacus in a decent manner, and occasionally came to visit the fine wine and Chengju, a bunch of people It is inevitable to get together to be noisy, and there is no moment to calm down.

They all said that they came here to be with Jiang Tiaotiao, and when he became a fairy, they would be the first to congratulate him.

But now he is already a fairy.

"It's fine if you're not here, so you won't be hurt."

He smiled in relief, took one last look at Yueranju, then turned and ran towards the medicine store.

Before Baoxiu left, she cast spells on the medicine house, and the house was as warm as spring without the cold air.

Everything in the house was exactly the same as before, Lin Wanke was still lying under the medical quilt, the medicinal herbs were still effective, he looked as if he was fast asleep.

Le Xin was still by his side. I don't know if it was because of the medicinal herbs or because he was exhausted physically and mentally. He was also sleepy, with one hand still tightly clutching Lin Wanke's wrist.

Jiang Tiaotiao carefully held out Feng Zhilan and said, "The person I want to save is him."

Lancao took human shape and jumped out of his palm, "Don't worry, let me see who it is first."

He leaned down to look at Lin Wanke, and then said with a smile: "This is that—a mortal with a good heart? You went to Wuyan Mountain to find me because of him?"

Jiang jumped and said, "Yes."

Feng Zhilan glanced at him and sighed: "I really don't know whether I should congratulate you on entering the immortal way first, or tell you whether you are an immortal or a demon, what awaits you next will not be a good thing."

Jiang Tiaotiao smiled and said, "I know."

Feng Zhilan must have known that she couldn't persuade him, and she didn't say much, she just stretched out her hand to gently caress the wound on his arm.

The arm injured by the fairy family's treasure slowly healed after he stroked it, leaving a light red mark.

"Since you brought me here, I will keep my promise. Then, there will be a period later." Feng Zhilan smiled at him, "Although we may not have the chance to meet again."

Before he finished speaking, he had turned back into a bluegrass, with glittering and translucent colors shining from the stems and leaves to the petals. At first, it was just a little bit, and gradually the light became stronger, and the purple air lingered, and the fragrance was ethereal and dense.

Every time the fragrance becomes stronger, a leaf will separate from the orchid grass and turn into fine light dust, which slowly falls on Lin Wanke's body.

"Fengzhilan inherits the goodwill of the world, with kindness as the stem, worry-free as the leaves, auspiciousness as the flower, and wishful thinking as the pistil. The stem becomes the body, the leaves become flesh and blood, the petals become blood, and the stamens become the heart."

Feng Zhilan's voice whispered next to Jiang Tiaotiao's ear, "He will live a long life in this life, everything goes well, you can rest assured."

The flowers and leaves have all dissipated, the light has settled, and condensed into a shiny seed, only the fragrance is still floating in the air.

When the purple air dissipated, Lin Wanke's lips and cheeks were already rosy, his palms were warm, and his chest began to rise and fall regularly.

He made a sleepy sound, and his closed eyes trembled slightly, as if they were about to open soon.

"Xiao Lin?"

Jiang Tiaotiao tried to ask a question.

Lin Wanke, who was sleeping, hummed, then opened his eyes and stared over in a daze.

He was clearly still awake, looking at him like they had never met before.

Although he knew that Feng Zhilan could be brought back to life, Jiang Tiaotiao was still too happy to see him come back to life.

He leaned over the bed, staring at Lin Wanke for a while in disbelief, and after looking at him, he wanted to hug him.

"Xiao Lin, do you still recognize me? I'm Tiao Tiao."

He stretched out his hand through Lin Wanke's arm, trying to hug him up, but suddenly his body froze.

Jiang Tiaotiao looked down and saw Le Xin still holding his wrist.

He held it so tightly, as if Lin Wanke would disappear out of thin air if he let go.

Jiang Tiaotiao could only withdraw his hands, thinking that it would be good to just look at him for a while.

Lin Wanke slept very drowsily, his eyes opened and closed for a while, maybe his body was too weak, and he couldn't even speak a complete sentence.

He saw Jiang Tiaotiao sitting beside him staring at him, and smiled at him.

Jiang Tiaotiao also smiled at him foolishly.

He thought about the situation when he came back to life many times, maybe he would cry, maybe he would pull him to ask questions like he didn't know he had died once, but he didn't expect to be so quiet like now.

It was so quiet that everything was still, only the warm aroma of grass leaves floating in the air.

But Jiang Tiaotiao knew very well that no matter how beautiful and peaceful this period of time was, it would pass.

When Lin Wanke wakes up, what awaits him is a brand new life, but he is different, his whole life will end in this warm medicine room.

He had already seen a butterfly with colorful wings flying into the house, flying around, leaving a faint golden line.

Jiang Tiaotiao stood up calmly, straightened his robe, turned to Lin Wanke and said, "I'm leaving."

Lin Wanke closed his eyes and fell asleep again. His complexion returned to normal, his breathing was steady, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I really like you." Jiang Tiaotiao said to him silently, "Just like you are to Mr. Le, I don't know why, but I just like you."

The corners of his eyes were a little wet, he reached out to wipe them, and said softly as if talking to himself: "Why did no one tell me that even being a fairy will shed tears."

"These tears are only shed when I am happy. I am very happy if I can do something for you."

After saying this, he opened the door and walked out, shutting the warmth of the room behind him.

The Xiajing butterflies flew out after him and surrounded him all the time.

As early as when crossing the lake, these butterflies had remembered his aura, no matter he was a demon or a fairy, they could find him.

Although Jiang Tiaotiao had no intention of running away, he still couldn't help but reached out and grabbed the butterfly.

Gold powder overflowed from his fingers, and the butterflies turned into a pair, still flying beside him.

The sound of flapping wings was endless, Jiang Tiaotiao could even see it, and soon the immortals from all over the world would follow the butterfly.

Feng Zhilan's flower seeds were still in his hands, he wanted to send the seeds back to Wangxing Mountain, but worried that it was too late.He also really wanted to take another look at the medicine store, but it was only for a short while, but he didn't dare to look back.

I'm afraid that if I take another look, I will be reluctant to leave.

There were more and more golden powder butterflies, Jiang Tiaotiao withdrew his mind and walked slowly towards the door.

He walked to the front hall, and the cut-out paper figures had turned back into colored paper.He bent over to pick it up, folded it together with Baoxiu's paper dragonfly and put it aside, wiped off the thin dust on the tables and chairs, opened the door, and walked forward aimlessly.

Jiang Tiaotiao clearly remembered the scene when Yueranju first opened. At that time, Wan'an Street was still crowded with people, and every day was as lively as a festival.Cheng Ju brought a lot of firecrackers and firecrackers, and they scrambled to light them, covering their ears to watch the firecrackers burning and jumping on the ground, exploding beautiful red paper all over the sky.

If someone asks who owns this magnificent and unique wine shop, his friends will push him out, and then they all laugh and shout, "Listen! The owner of Yueranju is Jiang Tiaotiao!"

They shouted so loudly that they almost covered the sound of firecrackers.

Looking back now, Jiang Tiaotiao felt a little pain in his ears.

"Master Jiang! Hey! Jiang Tiaotiao!"

Shouts came from behind, overlapping with the voices in memory, almost indistinguishable from each other.

Jiang Tiaotiao still walked unhurriedly until the man behind him came after him.

"Why didn't you listen when I called you?"

The person who came after him really surprised him, it was neither Baoxiu nor Huangcai, but Li Zhi who was supposed to stay in Peach Blossom Valley.

He was panting from running, and the weather was so cold that there was still a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

"Why are you here?"

Li Zeng said: "I don't understand what happened! That fierce peach fairy refused to let me go in to find Yanpu, so I stayed outside and fell asleep after I woke up. Beijing."

Jiang Tiaotiao knew in his heart that Taoxian must have sent someone to bring him back, and asked, "Then why don't you go home?"

Li Ren said: "I have no home, and even if I did, I can't go back. Mr. Jiang, are your winged horses still there? Take me to the Peach Blossom Valley again. Now I know how to walk the maze. This time, I guarantee that I will not go the wrong way, and I will definitely bring Roupu back!"

Jiang Tiaotiao looked at him blankly, thinking of the words of Yanpu and Taoxian who were curled up in the flowers, and murmured: "It's useless if you find it. You are just a mortal, and you can't protect him well. How can you stay with him?" Together."

Li Zheng said anxiously: "Do they think I'm useless? I'm going to practice martial arts now, or...or I'll learn from Xi Baiqing and become a magician! I can do whatever, please take me to Taohua again Is Gu okay?"

He chattered non-stop, tugging at Jiang Tiaotiao's sleeve and refusing to let go.Hundreds of thousands of butterflies gathered in the summer realm, and the butterflies fluttered in front of their eyes, almost blocking their sight.Of course, Li Zhi couldn't see all of this.

He wholeheartedly wanted to go to Peach Blossom Valley to find Roupu, but he suffered from being an ordinary man with no connections or abilities, so all he could ask for was Jiang Tiaotiao, but he didn't know that the only savior was even more helpless than him at the moment.

The sky was thick with dark clouds, and there was a faint sound of howling storms.

Jiang Tiaotiao stared blankly at the black cloud. After watching for a while, he suddenly thought of a way.

A method that can end the pursuit of the Immortals of the Four Realms and at the same time complete Li Zhi's way, although it is crazy and stupid, he thinks it is the best.

Jiang Tiaotiao exhaled, brushed aside the butterflies with one hand, and asked calmly, "You want to find Roupu so much?"

Li Jian said without hesitation: "Of course!"

"Will you be nice to him?"

Li Zheng said in amazement: "Mr. Jiang, don't even you believe me?"

Jiang Tiaotiao put one hand on his forehead and said with a smile, "I'm just asking you."

Seeing that he looked away, Li thought he was joking, and couldn't help being a little annoyed: "I didn't joke."

Jiang Tiaotiao said warmly: "I believe it. Mr. Li, if you do me a favor, I will take you to find Roupu."

He handed over the flower seed, "Please help me deliver this to Wangxing Mountain."

Li Den accepted it dubiously, "Just give me a seed——"

A little spark rushed in when he opened his mouth, Li Zhi couldn't react in time, was rushed back again and again by the fire, and finally fell into a snowdrift.

It took him a long time to get up, and apart from the strangeness on his body, what surprised him the most was that Jiang Tiaotiao was gone.

"Master Jiang?" He shouted anxiously, "Master Jiang? Where did you go?"

The surrounding area was silent, not even half a person was there.

He only saw a butterfly with colorful wings, which turned into a handful of shimmering gold powder after flying around in place for a few times.

Seeing butterflies in the middle of winter is a very strange thing. After watching it for a long time, Li Zheng thought it was his own eyesight.

It would probably take him longer to find out, but Jiang Tiaotiao had been standing by the side at that time.

It's just that he no longer has the inner alchemy, his body is just an empty shell, which will disappear without a trace soon.

He watched Li Ming looking for him everywhere, from one end of the street to the other, calling his name while searching.

It's a pity that he can't speak anymore, and he can't even answer.

Those butterflies in the Xia Realm lost their tracking the moment he took out his inner alchemy, and could no longer perceive his existence.

It's the same even if the immortal guards from the four realms come after him, no one will be able to find him again.

Just because there is no Jiang Tiaotiao in the world.

With a hollow heart, he looked down at his hand, the fingers of his left hand were turning into crystal dust little by little, gradually reaching his wrist and then his shoulder.

When the whole body is gone, he may turn back into an ordinary rabbit, or he may just disappear.Such a terrible thing, but Jiang Tiaotiao felt very good.

After all, he has done two earth-shattering events.

He went to Wuyan Mountain to grab the orchid grass and rescued Lin Wanke, and gave the inner alchemy to Li Zhuo to help him become a fairy, so that Yanpu could be with him.

In this way, everyone he cares about can live a good life, their wish is fulfilled, and there will be no regrets.

If I had to say that there was something else I was thinking about, it would be that I couldn't apologize to Huang Cai properly.

He walked unsteadily in the snow, leaving no marks on the places he stepped on. Occasionally, pedestrians who hurried past would pass straight through his body, as if passing through a layer of mist.

He didn't know where he was going, and he didn't know which step he could take. The surrounding scenery became hazy in a trance, as if he was in a sleeping song, as beautiful as a dream.

The condensed snow and ice disappeared suddenly, and roses bloomed all the way on both sides of the street. It took only a moment from the leaves to bloom. The leaves were as green as washing, and the flowers were pink and plump.

Jiang Tiaotiao stood on the soft red paper, watching his body disappear into the air little by little.

A familiar voice came faintly from behind, and someone was calling his name with a smile.

"Ginger Jump!"

He looked back, and everything in front of him finally turned into crystal dust, which fell lightly on the snow and gradually disappeared.
