That monk has a dragon [Rebirth]

Ye Sihuai regretted that sentence after he finished speaking, but turned around to meet Wu Nian's gentle eyes, and he couldn't go back on his word, so he had to acquiesce and let him follow.

Wu Nian didn't ask him where he was going, so Si Huai pretended to be ignorant and kept silent. He traveled all the way south for two days, rented a small boat on the bank of the Huai River, hired a boatman, and drove slowly. Go west on the boat.

The purpose of his trip is to go to Minghua Mountain on the outskirts of Huaiyin County, to find his Shanhe sword that he has never been able to summon with sword tactics.

The Shanhe sword is his portable sword, if it stays in the sword mound properly, it is impossible for someone to seal it on him.Since the Shanhe sword is not where his bones are buried, it is likely to be where the sword fell on his body.

Huaiyin County was not far from the small town that day, and it took only two or three days to hire a carriage, but he had been hunted down for more than ten days all the way from Moyang City, so it was safer to take a detour by water .

But now it is approaching the twelfth lunar month, and the weather has cleared up for many days. After the boat sailed slowly for five days, it suddenly snowed again. At sunset, the river was covered with a thin layer of ice, and the boatman dared not proceed rashly. Had to berth near the shore with many merchant ships.

After a day of heavy snowfall, Si Huai took a rest near the end of the night. Si Huai moved a table and chairs to the deck, looked around and saw no sign of the boatman, and then leisurely went back to fetch a jug of warm wine and two dishes of side dishes. , Facing the moon with half of its face sticking out in the sky, I drank it happily.

The river wind with the cold winter air felt a different kind of comfort from the usual. Si Huai became tired after drinking two cups. He propped his head on the table with his uninjured right hand, and was thinking about Shanhejian , and fell asleep in a daze.

But he didn't dare to sleep too much. Even if he had fallen asleep, his body was tense. When he sensed someone approaching, he opened his eyes quickly, and quickly clasped the person's wrist, waiting to see clearly. It was Wu Nian standing in front of him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Nian didn't expect him to wake up suddenly, his wrist was grabbed by him, and the brocade fur in his hand was taken off. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used the other hand to hold it, so that it would not fall to the ground and get covered in snow.

"Have a nightmare?" He asked in a low voice, broke free from Si Huai's grasp, shook off the brocade fur in his hands and put it on him.

Si Huai shook his head, fixed his dark eyes on the person who was exactly the same as in the dream, was in a daze for a while, and then asked, "Why did you come out?"

"Seeing that you fell asleep here, I was afraid of waking you up, so I brought you a brocade fur coat." Hearing his hoarse voice, Wu Nian couldn't help frowning, stretched out his hand to pull him up, and said: "Go in when you wake up, the winter night is cold, be careful of the wind and cold."

Si Huai's consciousness was sobered up by the night wind, he avoided his hand and was about to reach for the flagon that had been moved to the table, but Wu Nian was ahead of him and took the flagon farther away .

"What are you doing?" Si Huai frowned dissatisfiedly, "I want to drink and boil myself."

"You have an injury on your hand, so you can't drink." Wu Nian ignored him, and put the jug on the wooden barrel that Si Huai couldn't reach.

Si Huai raised his head and glared at him, picked up the chopsticks beside him and started to eat, secretly cursing the person next to him who was stuck like a pillar in his heart.

This monk is the same as Lingjun in his previous life, he manages people like a nagging old lady.

There were no extra chairs at the table, so Wu Nian stood beside him for a while, then slowly walked forward a few steps, turned his back and asked, "Isn't Huaiyin not far ahead? Are you going to Huaiyin?" What?"

Si Huai's hand holding the chopsticks paused for a moment, and seeing the beans he picked up fell back onto the plate, he let out a blunt smirk and asked, "What's none of your business?"

The back seemed to tremble slightly in the cold wind, Si Huai noticed it, and continued to hold the beans on the plate as if nothing had happened.

He didn't intend to let Wu Nian follow him into danger all the time. He has been lukewarm to Wu Nian these days just to drive him away, so naturally he won't tell him the reason truthfully this time.

After a while, Si Huai had already thought up the words in his heart, and said in a cold tone: "You have been following me, because you want to reveal my whereabouts to the people of Xianmen? I will tell you what I am going to do, okay?" Do you want someone to guard there?"

"Si Huai!" Wu Nian's voice was slightly angry, turned to meet his gaze, and then sighed helplessly, "You know I can't...you don't believe me?"

"I don't trust anyone." Si Huai lightly moved his eyes away from him, still holding the beans leisurely.

This time he didn't pick it up several times in a row. He was about to poke the chopsticks on the plate impatiently, but Wu Nian's hand had already covered the back of his hand, and he gently pulled the chopsticks out.

"The dishes are cold, I'll go and warm them up for you." Wu Nian took a plate in each hand and walked into the cabin, not forgetting to turn around and say: "The wine is also cold, if you want to drink, I'll warm a pot for you .”

Si Huai turned his head and glanced at him, didn't respond, and didn't stop him. He waited until the footsteps behind him were too far away to hear, and his eyes gradually turned cold before turning to a big boat next to him.

The boat has been following for two full days, and it has been not far or near. When it stopped tonight, it suddenly came to the side, but there was no sound at all, and it was very peaceful.

Si Huai stood up on the edge of the table, only to find that his head was a little dizzy, and stood with his eyes closed for a while, waiting for the burst of energy to pass, when he opened his eyes, he happened to catch a glimpse of a flash of cold light.

The slanted corners of his mouth were slightly mocking. If he guessed correctly, the tightly closed cabin on the opposite side should be full of immortal disciples. He wanted to touch him and wipe his neck in the dead of night. .

Si Huai pretended to be comfortable and walked to the side of the boat, leaned on the railing and glanced down to make sure that no one was climbing up with the hook, so he was a little relieved.

The cabin where the kitchen was located was already on fire, and he looked there for a while, then suddenly turned sideways to avoid a cold arrow coming from the wind, ran in another direction without looking back, and jumped down for life. The deck swept towards the river bank not far away.

Dawn was late in winter, and Si Huai stepped into the bustling Huaiyin County facing the first twilight of the morning.

He came back once after leaving Tonglu Town, but at that time he went to the bottom of Minghua Mountain and lost the courage to go up.

Perhaps it was the end of the new year, and instead of being deserted in the cold weather, the street market was even busier than when he came back from work. Many shops opened early in the morning to welcome the coming and going guests.

A small shed was abruptly built among the vegetable and fruit vendors by the roadside. There were two large stoves under the shed, and two large baskets of pastries were steaming. The sweet and glutinous smell wafted in the morning air, more refreshing than the fragrance of flowers in spring. .

Si Huai stood on the sidelines and watched for a while, but he still didn't go to grab the pastry from the group of children who were queuing up. He smiled lightly and continued walking forward.

Last night, he fought with the people from Xianmen outside the city. In order to avoid being recognized by others, he deliberately changed into a black suit and wore a bamboo hat with long curtains, but walking in the crowd like this seemed to be more eye-catching.

After walking for a while, he found that there were indeed a series of small footsteps following unhurriedly behind him. Si Huai sneered in his heart and walked towards the less crowded alley. Hearing the footsteps getting closer, he turned around and was about to Grab that person and beat him up, only to find that the person standing three steps behind him is Wu Nian.

A look of surprise appeared on Si Huai's face, and he asked, "How did you find it?"

"Since I guessed that you are coming to Huaiyin, I just wait here." Wu Nian said in a gentle voice, with a slight smile, "You are dressed like this, I almost didn't recognize you."

"Why do you keep following me?" Si Huai sighed helplessly. Knowing that there was no way to get rid of him, he asked unwillingly, "Are you relieved to leave the little monk alone in the Sheng family? Your senior brother and Are you not going to investigate the lives of those in the small monastery?"

"Mr. Sheng is very kind to Chen Yi, so I'm naturally relieved. As for the matter of the monastery..." Wu Nian paused for a moment, with a flash of disappointment on his face, and said, "It's been a few years since this incident, and it's not too late. It is not possible to find the murderer in a day or two, and now your matter is more important."

"Why don't you understand? If you follow me, Xianmen will not show mercy to you!" The most untrustworthy thing in the world is human affection. When you need it, you can make people do small things, and when you don't need it, you can be cruel. Stepped on the bottom of the foot.

Wu Nian didn't know if he listened to his words, so he just smiled slightly, stretched out the hand that had been hidden in the sleeve robe, and handed over a bag of steaming pastries.

"I just saw that you stood by the stall for a long time and failed to buy anything, so I went to buy some." Wu Nian shook his sleeves as if remembering something, and added: "Your money bag fell on the boat, It's your money."

"..." Si Huai didn't know how to answer the words for a moment, so he stood still and didn't reach out to pick up the pastry in his hand, just looking at him through a white curtain.

The morning wind blew in from the entrance of the alley, just lifted one side of the curtain, and fell down again in an instant, but Wu Nian still saw a scratch on Si Huai's right cheek.

Seeing his expression, Si Huai knew what he was going to ask, grabbed the oiled paper bag with the pastry in his hand, wiped his side and walked out of the alley, stuffed the sweet pastry into his mouth, and muttered: " These sweet toothless things are children's favorite things, what do you buy them for..."

Wu Nian listened to what he said word for word, but didn't say anything, and followed with a smile.

In Huaiyin Town 300 years ago, the front section was a bustling market selling all kinds of toys and food, and the back section was selling incense, candles, prayer beads and bracelets to worship Buddha; now there are various merchants all the way to the end. In addition to being lively, there is something missing.

When he reached the foot of Minghua Mountain, a pack of sugar cakes was just finished eating, Si Huai casually threw the parchment paper to Wu Nian who was behind him, stood still at the foot of the mountain and looked up.

This is supposed to be a road up the mountain, but weeds have been overgrown for 300 years, and there are no traces of the road.

Wu Nian stepped forward and stood side by side with him, followed his gaze to look up, and asked softly, "Is this Minghua Mountain?"

"Isn't it unexpected? There are no stone steps to go up the mountain here. It's just a road for pilgrims to come and go. Year after year, there is an endless stream. Who would have thought that one day, it would become what it is today."

In his voice, there was never-before-seen loss and regret, as if 300 years had been deposited in his heart, and he was brought out by the clumps of weeds in front of him.

Wu Nian's heart ached for no reason, and he turned his head away, but he could only see his frowning side face through the white curtain.

"Qi Zhou..." He called out suddenly, and before Si Huai could respond, he asked out the confusion in his heart for more than ten days, "Is the old man you mentioned to me Master Lingjun?"

"Yes." Si Huai turned his head to meet his gaze, and answered without hesitation.

"That's it..." The smile on Wu Nian's face suddenly became a little bleak, "Is there something similar between me and this Master Lingjun? Otherwise, you wouldn't like me..."

"You look a lot like him, no...it should be exactly the same." Si Huai's slow tone became a little colder, "You are right, it is because of him that I will help you again and again, It is because of him that I like you, but you are not him after all, and I don't really like you. So...you still have a chance to leave before I kill you. "

"I don't believe it." Wu Nian said this sentence almost without thinking, "I am not the same person as him, even if you helped me because of Master Lingjun, but if you don't have half the sincerity for me, so what? Will you go over and over again because I look similar to him?"

"What?" Si Huai didn't realize what he meant by this sentence for a while.

"Let's go." Under his astonished gaze, Wu Nian reached out to hold his cold palm and pulled him up the mountain, saying: "That day in the dark river when you used your mouth to cross my cultivation base , I am awake too."

The author has something to say: Si Huai was caught stealing kisses twice, which is a bit exciting hahahaha~~

In the comments, a little angel said that the tone of my speech is different (scratching head), in fact, the relationship has been developing, the two people are getting closer, it is normal for the tone of speech to change hee hee (I thought about it and I didn’t I know how Wu Nian should speak hahaha)
