sin of nature

Since everyone returned to the hospital, they stayed for more than a month, and in a blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival.

"Lord Huanshui, are we really not in a hurry? It has been more than a month since the emperor ordered this matter, and we haven't even set off yet. I don't care. But when you go back to the God Realm, won't you be accused by them? Is it not good for you?" Xiao Ming just came back from a doctor's visit with a wooden medical box on his back, while handing the prescription to Yao Guang, he talked to Jin Buhuan who was sitting at the table drinking tea.

Jin Buhuan shook his head and said calmly, "No, if it's really urgent, it's not up to us to deal with it. It shouldn't be a big deal... Besides, I don't plan to go back to that place either. Who knows what kind of plans they have behind me. After this time, I can see it clearly. We are celebrating the festival today, how about leaving tomorrow? I haven't encountered such a grand event in the human world a few times. All the beautiful girls in the city will come out to swim in the lights...how wonderful."

Before in the God Realm, Emperor Kaiyang asked them to go to the barren land in the north of the Human Realm to find a few treasures for the Celestial Realm that had not been seen many years ago.Part of it was to punish the two of them. Although Jin Buhuan had already proved his innocence, it was indefensible for Xiao Ming, Huang Li and others to rob the prison and rescue Jin Buhuan without authorization.But in fact, this punishment is more to make all beings in the God Realm explain, partly to warn others, partly to make them shut up.

The two understood Kaiyang Tiandi's painstaking efforts to punish them.

Xiao Ming nodded, "Then let's set off tomorrow, and I'll ask Huali to prepare some horses for us later." He put down the medical box, took out the contents one by one and put them on his consultation table, Thinking of the second half of the other party's sentence, he smiled, "Master Huan Shui forgot, when you came to the human world to catch up with the Lantern Festival a few years ago, you got drunk and fell into the river."

Speaking of this, Jin Buhuan immediately burst into laughter, "Yes! At that time, I vaguely remembered that there was a beautiful girl who was setting up lanterns by the river and was about to give me her handkerchief. Unfortunately, If I hadn't fallen into the river and caught the handkerchief, wouldn't it have made a good story...why did I get so drunk at that time?" After saying that, he curled his lips, with a look on his face It's a pity.

Huan Li walked over with the teapot that had just been replaced with boiling water, poured Jin Buhuan's teapot slowly, listened to his regret, and said indifferently, "My lord, no one calls himself Good story." Putting down the teapot, he turned to Xiao Ming, "Sir, how many horses are you preparing?"

Xiao Ming lowered his head to tidy up his medical box, and replied without raising his head, "It's just me and Master Huan Shui."

"no"

Huan Li immediately interrupted.

He just knew it was.

Xiao Ming looked at Huang Li, "Your injury is just right, don't run around with us, didn't Master Huan Shui say just now? It's not a big deal."

Jin Buhuan also responded, "Yeah, what did I say about you last time, you little bastard is over 100 years old, and you still can't live without adults?"

Huan Li didn't listen to them at all, "It doesn't matter, sir, if you don't take me with you, it's fine if I follow behind on horseback?"

Xiao Ming had a headache, felt that the child was really grown up, and continued to explain: "No, this time it's just..."

Before he could finish speaking, a voice came in again.

"I also need to go."

Xiao Ming was startled, looked at Yao Guang standing in front of the medicine cabinet, and suddenly forgot what he wanted to say.

"I'm going too," Kuang Yu stood beside the door leading to the backyard with the deer in his arms, and asked rarely, with firm eyes.

The deer in Kuangyu's arms gave a shrill cry, as if saying that it was going too.

Huan Li glared at the deer immediately, and said loudly, "I won't take you! It's useless if you bark," with a very ferocious expression on his face.

Kuang Yu and Lu: "..."

Xiao Ming looked at Yao Guang, Kuang Yu and Huan Li, and always felt that the irresistible atmosphere was very strong.

He was thinking about it in his heart.

He seemed unable to refuse Yao Guang.

Kuang Yu was always alone, and it was not good to leave him alone.

Well... if Huang Li is not allowed to go, he will definitely not listen.

Under such balance, Xiao Ming had no choice but to decide with a headache, "Go, go, go, go! Go!"

It's not like going out for a spring outing, what to do with so many people......

Just as he was muttering, Yao Guang, who was standing in front of the medicine cabinet just a moment ago, suddenly walked beside him, and the sweet smell of the other person enveloped him.

"!!" Xiao Ming was startled, and jumped two steps to the side, his ears turned red.

It's not that he overreacted. Ever since he knew that the other party was Li, every time the other party approached, he became a little strange, as if he had been drunk.

He vaguely remembered the smell of Yaoguang, which was very similar to the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus wine that he liked so many years ago...Maybe it was the sweet and mellow taste that made him feel a little smug. …

"What's that?" Yao Guang asked.

"Huh?" Xiao Ming looked at him puzzled.

The other party pointed to his hand and repeated, "What is that?"

Xiao Ming looked down and saw that he was holding a light purple handkerchief in his hand, "Huh? What is this?"

When he spoke just now, he was tidying up the medical box, which should have been taken out from there.

"Why is there such a thing in my medical kit?"

Huan Li took a few steps forward, took the handkerchief from his hand, glanced at it, immediately understood the reason, and asked knowingly, "Which clinic did your lord go to see?"

Xiao Ming replied, "Miss of the Liu family."

Huan Li said seriously, "It must have been that young lady who put it in your medical box while you were not paying attention—I told you before, that young lady had a heart for you, but you didn't care. Throw it to you? What are you going to do, do you go with the flow?"

Xiao Ming waved his hand, "I'll just send the handkerchief back now."

Huan Li said, "Didn't your lord fulfill her wish, and you have to see her again. If you come and go, it will be a matter of course if you don't keep it. Why don't you let his servants come and get it?"

Xiao Ming refused, "No, if you let others know that she was returned the handkerchief and spread it, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

"I'll go." A firm voice sounded.

Xiao Ming: "??"

Huan Li: "??"

Yao Guang, who didn't make much noise, took the handkerchief from Huang Li's hand calmly and looked at it. After asking where the Liu family was, he immediately went out, leaving the two of them looking at each other.

Huan Li asked strangely, "Why is Master Yao Guang so active?"

Xiao Ming also shook his head incomprehensibly.

Jin Buhuan on the tea table drank a cup of tea, and said confidently, "It's not easy, Yao Guang must be going to find his wife who was lost by Master Ming Shui."

Huan Li: "Really?"

Jin Buhuan: "It's absolutely true - he came all the way from Qingyue, thousands of miles away, just to marry a wife, and was disturbed by Lord Mingshui, can you not worry?"

Xiao Ming: "...Really?"

"That's right! Think about it... Li Ran is not married either? He only has a fake son. Don't men in the human world value the inheritance of incense?" He pointed at Huang Li.

Xiao Mingruo nodded thoughtfully, finding some rationality in his words.

In the evening, eat glutinous rice balls made by Huan Li for everyone.

Xiao Ming, who was moved by Jin Buhuan's words, looked at Yao Guang who was eating in a strange manner during the whole meal, hesitating to speak.

Whenever he met Yao Guang's gaze, and the other party cast a "what's the matter" gaze, Xiao Ming turned his head again and pretended to be looking at the scenery.

Kuang Yu sat at the table, looked at the bowl on the table, the glutinous rice balls inside hadn't moved at all.

Dissatisfied, Huang Li knocked on the bowl in front of him with his chopsticks, and said in a strong tone, "Don't waste it, I made it!"

Xiao Ming thought to himself, he might be even more reluctant to eat it if you made it...

But Kuang Yu accepted Huang Li's opinion for the first time, picked up the bowl, stuffed all the glutinous rice balls in the bowl into his mouth, chewed his feet carelessly, swallowed it, and opened his mouth uncommonly to Huang Li. Li said, "It's delicious, thank you."

Xiao Ming opened his eyes wide and looked at Kuang Yu, feeling that he was very abnormal today.

Huang Li was obviously a little confused by his sudden overture. Although he didn't understand why, he was also very happy in his heart. He covered the smile on his lips and pretended to say casually, "There are still plenty in the kitchen, and no one eats them anyway. you eat."

Kuang Yu shook his head to indicate that there was no need, and sat quietly waiting for them to finish eating.

Xiao Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly thought that Kuang Yu might not have celebrated the Lantern Festival with others for a long time.He has lived alone since he was eight years old, and this may be the reason why he is so taciturn.

"Let's go to the Lantern Festival together later." Although Xiao Ming told everyone, his eyes were still looking at Kuang Yu.

Jin Buhuan said, "I must go, not to mention that there are so many beautiful girls to see, and there are so many foods to eat—"

Except for Kuang Yu, everyone else said they would go.

"I want to stay at home." Kuang Yu said seriously.

"No." Xiao Ming resolutely said, "You go too, we will set off lanterns together later, if Master Huan Shui falls into the river again, there will be more people to catch him."

In Shanyang City, several main streets are brightly lit, and the air is filled with the pleasant smell of powder on the girl's body and the smell of melted lamp oil.

A group of people walked out the door mightily, Jin Buhuan and Huang Li walked in the front, Kuang Yu walked in the middle, Xiao Ming and Yao Guang walked in the back, attracting the attention of many women.

Jin Buhuan turned his head to look at Kuang Yu behind him, stretched out his hand to give him a hand, and let him walk side by side with the two of them.

There are a lot of people on the street, and if you don't pay attention, a few people will disperse.

Xiao Ming and Yao Guang were rushed by the crowd to the outskirts of a lion dance team. The sound of drums and gongs was deafening, and a road was blocked.

Seeing that the two of them were about to be squeezed apart, Xiao Ming stretched out his hand and pulled Yao Guang's sleeve, "Yao Guang, let's go over there—" He pointed to the only vacant place on the edge of the large circle surrounded by the crowd. a pathway.

The latter nodded, pulled out his tugged sleeve, grabbed his hand behind his back, and led him to the passage, which was unimpeded.

His palm was very warm, and he didn't use many sharp tools to pull him, it was more like being gently squeezed in his hand.

The two walked around the crowd and walked down the embankment, walking around the embankment, Xiao Ming found that Yao Guang's arms were bulging, and a corner of the gauze handkerchief was protruding from his coat.

"What is this—" Xiao Ming didn't think about it, stretched out his hand and pulled out a bunch of handkerchiefs of various colors.

"........"

The two squeezed out from the crowd just now, but they met many women along the way, presumably they were stuffed into Yao Guang's arms at that time.

Xiao Ming laughed, and jokingly said, "A lot of girls gave you handkerchiefs along the way, do you like any of them? If so, why not make a good story come true?" He thought of Jin Buhuan's saying "make a good story come true" I couldn't help laughing.

The latter only glanced at the handkerchief indifferently, then threw it on the ground casually, ignoring it, and looked a little displeased.

Xiao Ming remembered what Jin Buhuan said that Yao Guang might want to get married, so he tentatively asked, "Yao Guang, do you have any unfinished business?"

Yao Guang was a little puzzled by his sudden inquiry, but he still replied frankly, "There are indeed a few regrets."

"Hmm..." Xiao Ming nodded clearly, and continued to ask, "But it's related to marriage?"

Yao Guang nodded hesitantly and said, "That's right."

Master Huan Shui was right.

Xiao Ming resisted the uncomfortable feeling in his heart, and continued to ask, "Then do you have a sweetheart now?"

The other party nodded and admitted, "Yes."

Xiao Ming felt a sudden soreness in his heart. He suppressed that feeling, showed a wry smile, and said, "You have probably lived alone for more than 100 years. It is indeed much better to have someone by your side. If you If you want to get married, I can help you, those wedding ceremonies are very complicated......"

If there is a mirror now, maybe he can see how reluctant the smile on his face is.

Yao Guang slightly lowered his eyes to look at him, his eyes were clear and bright, his eyes were a little uncertain and hesitant, after a long while, he slowly opened his mouth, "..."

At the same time, a huge firework suddenly exploded in the dark night sky, and the sound was like a ringing sound. Yao Guang in Xiao Ming's eyes opened and closed his lips, but the sound was completely covered by the sound.

The expression on his face was a little startled, he moved closer, and asked, "What did you just say?"

Yao Guang glanced at the fireworks behind him, knowing that the other party didn't hear his words, he turned his head, lowered his head slightly, and moved closer to the other party's ear.

The tips of his ears felt itchy from the heat of his sudden approach, Xiao Ming naturally moved away the tips of his ears, and when he turned his head, his lips landed on Yao Guang's lightly parted lips.

"......"

There was the sound of roaring fireworks exploding in his ears, but the sound gradually died down and was replaced by his own heartbeat.

The eyes of the two met, Xiao Ming even felt the other's eyelashes brushing his cheekbones, and the smell of osmanthus wine on Yao Guang made him a little dizzy.

Not far away came Jin Buhuan's loud shout, Xiao Ming turned his head as if waking up from a dream, separated from the other party, said a few words of apology in a row, then turned his head and ran away.

Every step is like stepping on cotton.

"Master Ming Shui, why is your face so red, are you drunk?"

Xiao Ming shook his head, hoping that he was indeed drunk.

Otherwise, he seemed to have heard what Yao Guang said when the fireworks exploded.

He said.

"Then will you marry me?"
