Ming Guangzong has been raining again for the past few days. It seems that the cloud is always shrouded in this mountain peak. At the end of summer and early autumn, the wings of flying birds cross the sky lowly, pass over the raised eaves corners, and land on Yi Ning's fingertips .

Today is his first day out.

Yi Ning usually doesn't like to talk, and since that person came, he has become even more reticent.

This is Yunqing Mountain, a peak that the head of the sect built alone before going on a trip. Originally, it was only for Yi Ning to live in, but he took in his apprentice Gong Xiuxian, so two people lived together.Later, the apprentice's childhood sweetheart Liu Rugeng came up the mountain to seek refuge, and it became three people living together.

The flying bird folded its wings, and obediently pecked at the food in Yi Ning's palm.Yi Ning looked at it calmly, and just when he felt calmer, he heard Liu Rugeng's cheerful laughter from inside the hall, as if he intended to spread his voice outside the hall: "Xiu Xian, today is the Lantern Festival, let's go down the mountain to buy some lanterns and come back Bar."

Yi Ning felt a little irritable for no reason.

Gong Xiuxian is Yi Ning's only apprentice and also Yi Ning's Taoist companion.Although they are not yet married, they have indeed communicated with each other for a long time.

Yi Ning didn't know what it was now.

Ever since Liu Rugeng came, there seemed to be something between him and Gong Xiuxian.For example, he doesn't know what the Lantern Festival is, he doesn't know the story of their childhood, and he doesn't understand why they are so lively.

"Okay, then I'll ask Master to go with me." Yi Ning heard Gong Xiuxian's voice, it was gentle and sweet, like pine and bamboo, gentle and elegant like his people.

Hearing his words, Yi Ning's expression finally fluctuated a bit, his slender eyelashes trembled slightly, but his eyes still fell on the bird.

Gong Xiuxian walked out of the hall, with a wide and warm palm, he gently placed it on Yi Ning's shoulder, and said softly: "Master, today is the Lantern Festival, let's go to the mountain to release lanterns together."

The bird was startled by his arrival, Yi Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to say something, but before he could speak, he heard footsteps coming from behind him, and the visitor gently said beside Gong Xiuxian: "Xiu Xian Xian, how could Shangxian like vulgar things like lanterns, it is better not to disturb Shangxian's cultivation."

Yi Ning turned his head and met Liu Rugeng's seemingly pure and clear eyes, who looked at him with a slight smile: "Shangxian, Xiuxian and I will bring you back the most beautiful lantern. Do you think so, Xiuxian?"

Gong Xiuxian pondered for a moment, thinking that Master has never celebrated this kind of festival, and he is obsessed with cultivation every day, so he probably doesn't like noise.So he nodded and said: "That's right, the disciple was negligent, Ru Geng and I went down the mountain, Master, let's practice hard."

Yi Ning opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, and agreed with a slight nod.

He really doesn't like to be lively, but occasionally he wants to be lively.

Liu Rugeng chattered happily in Gong Xiuxian's ear, telling about the joy when they were young when they set off lanterns together.Gong Xiuxian also seemed to be brought back memories, and was amused by Liu Rugeng to keep laughing.

Yi Ning felt that he couldn't listen anymore, his heart felt like a stone was blocked, hard and heavy, making him unable to breathe.

It was almost dusk, and as soon as the two of them left, Yunqing Mountain became cold and silent.Standing under the eaves, Yi Ning suddenly had the desire to chat with someone.

He wanted to ask, what is the Lantern Festival.Living in Yunqing Mountain to practice since childhood, Yi Ning didn't understand those things in the world.

But in this huge Ming Guangzong, it seems that everyone respectfully calls him an immortal, but in fact, Yi Ning has no acquaintances at all.

Maybe there's still someone to talk to.Yi Ning's feet unknowingly walked to the cliff of the back mountain.

The cliff at the back of Yunqing Mountain is extremely steep, and only Yi Ning knows that there is a cave on the cliff, which is filled with formations he used to trap demons.

Yi Ning jumped and fell into the entrance of the cave, and his clothes were flying, as if some rain and fog breathed in from outside, awakening the people who were sleeping in the formation.

To be exact, it's a monster.

"What are you doing here?" The man was shackled by heavy shackles, his whole body was full of blood, but his eyes were lazy and casual, staring at Yi Ning's figure like a beast hiding in the dark sizing up its prey.

Yi Ning stepped into the formation, stood in front of the opponent, looked at him quietly, and said, "Yan Xuan."

This is his name, Yan Xuan has not heard his name for a long time.He raised his eyelids lightly, and said calmly: "What are you doing?" Normally, Yi Ning would not come to see him, maybe he just came to strengthen the formation and seal.

After Yi Ning finished speaking, he fell silent again.But he really wanted to know what the Lantern Festival was. If so, next time Gong Xiuxian brought it up again, he would have something to say.

"Do you know what the Lantern Festival is?" Yi Ning asked with a calm expression and a casual tone.

Yan Xuan was stunned for a moment, and said a little strangely: "Ask what this is for." Could this be some new spell related to lanterns?Yi Ning always has those weird spells to deal with him.

Seeing his answer like this, Yi Ning sighed softly, got up and said, "It's fine if you don't know." He knew that how could a demon like Yan Xuan know what the Lantern Festival is.He took it for granted.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yan Xuan suddenly said: "Let the lanterns go, a day to pray for blessings." After finishing speaking, he looked away from Yi Ning a little uncomfortably, and rarely said any sarcasm.But Yi Ning didn't notice his expression.

Praying for blessings? Yi Ning stood where he was, his thoughts began to fly to the horizon, and after a long time he slowly said: "I see." Then he turned around and left the cave.

Yi Ning walked quickly, not giving Yan Xuan any chance to speak. Yan Xuan gritted his teeth resentfully and struggled hard. The electric whip on the heavy shackle immediately burned his wrist black.

One day, one day... Yan Xuan closed his eyes.

Gong Xiuxian and the others came back very late, and the two of them carried lanterns along the way and talked from the age of eight, from the tragedy of the Gong family back then to how well Master treats him now.

As Liu Rugeng listened, his pupils dimmed a bit, but he still echoed tenderly, saying, "Fortunately, I was saved by Shangxian, otherwise I really don't know where I will be able to see you."

When mentioning the Gong family, Gong Xiuxian became silent. Back then, his parents were poisoned and killed by thieves, and he was the only one who survived because he didn't eat too much and was not poisoned too deeply.In order to take revenge, he climbed the [-] steps of Ming Guangzong's ladder and almost died on the way. At that time, it was Yi Ning who saved him.

"Don't be sad, I will always be with you in the future, and I will never let you be lonely again." Liu Rugeng's body was quietly attached to Gong Xiuxian's body. Although it was the end of summer, the wind had already turned cold, and the two of them were warm The body temperature leaned against one place, and even the air seemed a little warmer.

Gong Xiuxian was a little moved, and said with a calm smile: "Rugeng, Master and I will always be with you, and we will never let you be bullied again." Liu Rugeng used to be Gong Xiuxian's personal servant Waiter, after Gong Xiuxian left, Liu Rugeng was insulted by the housekeeper of the palace family, so he had no choice but to join Gong Xiuxian.

He has lived on Yunqing Mountain for half a month.

"Thank you, Xiuxian." Liu Rugeng deliberately raised the lantern lightly, reflecting his pretty face. At this moment, with tears in his eyes, he was looking at Gong Xiuxian affectionately.

Gong Xiuxian didn't notice anything yet, but felt that Liu Rugeng was really pitiful.But when he saw the lantern, he suddenly remembered: "It's broken, I forgot to bring the lantern for Master, Rugeng, you go back first, I'll go down the mountain and buy another one for Master."

Just about to leave, Liu Rugeng pulled his sleeves and heard him say: "It's raining recently and the road is slippery, don't go on the mountain road anymore. I have a spare one here, give it to Master first, not to mention I can let you go with the lantern today , I am already very content." He said very earnestly, Gong Xiuxian couldn't help softening his heart and said: "Rugeng, you are so considerate, I thank you on behalf of Master."

Liu Rugeng smiled lightly and said nothing.

The sky was covered with a dark blue curtain, and a few scattered stars hung on the curtain, and a water-blue shadow stood underneath, like a quiet picture scroll.

Yi Ning has always liked to wear water blue.Gong Xiuxian saw Yi Ning waiting in front of the mountain gate at a glance, and hurried to Yi Ning, and said worriedly: "It's cold recently, why did Master come out with so little clothes, how long have you been waiting?"

Listening to his words, Yi Ning's expression was a little loose, and he said in a low voice: "Not long." It's just been waiting from dusk to now.

"That's good," Gong Xiuxian easily believed, and then said softly: "The night market is lively, if Geng has to play for a while, it will delay the time."

Hearing what he said, Liu Rugeng looked angrily laughed, grabbed Gong Xiuxian's arm and hit him, "You still said, obviously you also had a good time, who dragged me to guess at the quiz booth?" A riddle for half an hour?" The two naturally quarreled together, Gong Xiuxian didn't reject each other's contact, and the laughter burst into Yi Ning's eardrums, so ear-piercing.

He suddenly wanted to go back and rest.

"By the way, Shangxian, the two of us had so much fun that we forgot about the lantern." Liu Rugeng frowned as if just remembering it, and said, "If you don't mind, just buy Xiuxian for me." Take the lanterns."

Yi Ning paused as he walked back, and he turned to look at the lantern, which had a pink paper-cut pattern and a red candle inside, which was almost burnt out.

It is indeed beautiful.Yi Ning looked up at Gong Xiuxian, who seemed to be looking forward to his acceptance, Liu Rugeng stood beside Gong Xiuxian holding the lamp with a smile on his face.

"You keep it, I don't like it." Yi Ning couldn't tell the weird feeling in his heart, he only knew that he didn't want it.What is he, is he feeling like a jealous wife?Yi Ning felt a little sick.

Both Gong Xiuxian and Liu Rugeng's smiles froze on their faces. Gong Xiuxian realized that Master was in a bad mood, so he immediately leaned over and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you."

"I'm fine, I'm just tired." Yi Ning looked indifferent, he didn't want to admit that he felt the candlelight of that lamp was very dazzling, and Liu Rugeng's smile was also very dazzling.

He turned and walked away quickly, feeling very upset, he didn't want to see the two of them now.

I had a lot of fun, so I forgot about him.

Watching Yi Ning leave, Gong Xiuxian stood there in a daze, and Liu Rugeng walked over with his head down, and said in a tone of annoyance: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have played for so long, and made Shangxian angry."

"How can I blame you? It's my fault." Gong Xiuxian comforted in a soft voice, and then said: "It's okay, Master has always treated me very well, and I will be fine if I apologize to him tomorrow morning."

He always thought that Yi Ning couldn't do without him, just like he couldn't do without Yi Ning.

Liu Rugeng nodded, hiding the upward curve of his mouth.

No matter how powerful Shangxian is, he is not as clever as Liu Rugeng.After Gong Xiuxian left, Liu Rugeng slowly hung the lantern in front of the hall, he asked Yi Ning to look at the lantern every day and remember what happened tonight all the time.

As the night was getting darker, Yi Ning was sitting alone on the cliff of the back mountain practicing, the evening wind was blowing, his hair was flying, and he looked like an exiled immortal.

It is true that he looks more handsome than Liu Rugeng, but he is not tainted by the world of mortals, and he does not have the fireworks of the world at all.After all, it was too cold, maybe he should be more lively like Liu Rugeng.

Yi Ning thought so, but his brows were furrowed.

But he didn't want to be like someone else.

"Hey, come in." He heard a deep voice from the cave under the cliff.
