In winter, it gets dark early, the dark clouds cling to the sky wall, and the night is darker than before.

The voices of people in the inn lobby below gradually faded away, and the sound of insects was silent all around. Lu Ming jumped off the bed and walked to the window. When he opened the window, he saw that there was no starlight outside, and the dark clouds were like a thick quilt shrouded in the night. On the sky, it looks like there is going to be another heavy snow.

Ji He said behind him: "In such a cold season, it is easiest to bury dirty things. If there is another heavy snowfall, all traces will be melted away."

Lu Ming shook his head: "I don't think Ye Qingyu is that kind of person. Even if he wants to hide something, it's not something shameful, at most it's just some past events that he doesn't want to recall very much."

Ji He walked up to him, leaning on the window to look at the night sky with him: "I know. I don't have to doubt Mr. Ye, but I always have a premonition. Ever since I saw him during the day, this premonition has been very strong. .”

Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "Has he gone out again now?"

Ji He nodded: "Yes. I came back at noon, when Shen Tang and I were having dinner in the lobby downstairs, he seemed a little hesitant when he saw us, but he wasn't very surprised, he probably knew in advance that we would come. He went upstairs, changed his clothes, and left without saying anything."

Lu Ming thought about it.

Ji He shrugged helplessly, "You know, although I am your direct disciple, he is an immortal after all, and Shen Tang has just joined the sect. If Master Ye is not willing to disclose, we are not qualified to ask questions. his."

Lu Ming turned his head: "You are not just my direct disciple."

Ji He was taken aback, as if he didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Lu Ming said: "You are not just my disciple."

Ji He looked up at him, and asked calmly, "Then what?"

Lu Ming paused, and made a heartfelt gesture to him: "You're still my teammate to do missions with me."

"..." Ji He blinked, and after a while, turned his head back as if discouraged, "...What do you mean?"

Lu Ming just looked at him and smiled, without explaining. In fact, what he wanted to say in his heart was that you are still my wife, but he changed his words when he came to his mouth, for fear of embarrassing him, in case Ji He was molested by himself The thinner he is, the more he will be kicked out if he says something shameless.

Everything was very quiet in the middle of the night, cold rain fell outside at some point, the street was wet and glowing with the dim light of the inn doorway, once the previous topic was interrupted, it was impossible to continue, the two stood side by side quietly , Shoulders occasionally touch together, and even hear each other's heartbeat.

Lu Ming quietly turned his head and saw Ji He's soft and white side face, suddenly a trance tender feeling surged in his heart, suddenly, the system in his mind brushed the sense of existence inappropriately.

[System]: "Attention, attention. The emotion value fluctuates slightly, please adjust the status as soon as possible so as not to affect the progress of subsequent plot tasks."

Luming: "..."

He ground his molars, and said to the system in his mind: "Are you sick? What's wrong with my lovely little disciple Bodhisattva? Isn't he the official match you set for me?"

[System]: "Today is different from the past. Since both parties have exposed their identities, the emotional fluctuations here refer to your true inner feelings. The plot is the main focus, and you must not be emotional."

Lu Ming said violently, "Get out."

The system didn't make any more sound, Lu Ming came back to his senses, saw Ji He was still staring out the window in a daze, inexplicably thought that their relationship is still the official match set by the system, if there is no such layer, maybe neither of them can develop Opportunity, what if all the tasks are completed in the future and the plot has a happy ending?

Will they return to their original world?

——If they go back, can they meet again?

Although he couldn't wait to express his sincerity after he woke up from the horse, but maybe his tone and attitude were very casual at that time, and it seemed that there was no need to take it seriously. Up to now, Jihe has never responded to his feelings positively. He blushed when he mentioned the key points, and lowered his head to ignore him if it was too much.

When neither of them revealed their identities before, in order to maintain their personality, they could listen to the system's instructions and occasionally get close to each other. Although they each have their own ghosts, at least they can do superficial kung fu.

Now they are honest with each other, but it seems that they are too honest, even if they say the truth, they have to think carefully for a long time, and they are careful for fear that they will force the other party back.

The most obvious manifestation is that he has been off the horse for so many days, and he doesn't even have a chance to kiss him!

Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt a sense of irritability as if he was defeated like a mountain and fell ill.

His thoughts were galloping like tens of thousands of horses, and once he opened his mouth, he couldn't stop, thinking of the possibility that they would be separated in the future, he became extremely annoyed, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and even his heart throbbed faintly.

It would be great if he could be tied to me, he thought, so that we would not be separated no matter where we were, and it would be even better if there was a certificate, then he would be mine for the rest of his life, and he would never be able to run away.

"It's so late, are you hungry?" Maybe it was too long of silence, Ji He couldn't help finding a topic out loud, "I really like the dishes the boss brought for dinner, do you want to try them? taste?"

Lu Ming turned his face, for some reason, his dark pupils were a little moist.

Ji He was stunned for a moment, he opened his mouth to ask something, but he changed his words to something else: "In addition to the bowl of stewed squab with pearl dried rice, there are also fried spring rolls, shredded chicken with five willows, a bowl of Seaweed and egg drop soup, the boss also gave me a bottle of Fenjiu, saying that it is Fenjiu brewed in Xinghua Village, which is rare."

He couldn't stop talking about the delicious Ji He, and he didn't ask what was wrong with Luming, and began to analyze in a rambling manner: "Steamed squab with pearl dried shrimps is a new dish, although I didn't eat dried dried shrimps, it tastes very good , the eggs in the egg drop soup were beaten into pieces, and there were few seaweeds. The fried spring rolls and shredded chicken with five willows were very ordinary, and only Fenjiu was good to drink, and it looked very fragrant."

Lu Ming said without thinking, "You like it so much, then we will use Fenjiu when we get married."

Jihe: "..."

His eyes widened in disbelief, with an expression of not knowing what you were talking about: "...Are you hungry?"

Lu Ming looked at him without blinking, as if he wanted to look into his heart. After a long time, he said, "Has your system told you what will happen after all the plots are over?"

"Huh?" Ji He didn't know why he asked this suddenly, and he was taken aback for a while before answering, "Well...it seems not, I didn't think about it, the storyline is not complete now, let alone when it will come to an end, What are you asking this for?"

Lu Ming shook his head and said, "Why haven't you thought about this question? Don't you want to go back?"

Jihe: "..."

……go back?Where to go back, back to... the modern age?

These words hit Ji He's heart suddenly, he was blankly silent for a moment, then lowered his head, and after a while, two words came out of his throat like a mosquito: "...I thought about it."

Lu Ming looked at him for a long while, and his heart tightened.

Yes, how could they not want to, that is the world they have lived in for more than 20 years, the most deeply rooted home in their cognition, as well as their parents, relatives, elders and friends, none of which can be let go.

But can you cut me off?

He didn't ask this question, and he didn't have the heart to ask it. Thinking about how he had lived for so many years, it was a rare thing for him to be so sincere in a person who traveled through the world to someone who might not have any results in the future.

There was relative silence for an unknown amount of time, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

It was the boss' voice: "Little Xianjun, are you asleep?"

Ji He and Lu Ming looked at each other, Lu Ming nodded to him, then Ji He walked to the door and said: "Not yet, what's the shopkeeper?"

The boss said: "I didn't mean to disturb Xiao Xianjun. In fact, Ye Xianjun from the noble clan came back, and he came back drunk. He was so drunk that he didn't listen to anyone. We really didn't dare to move. That's why I came up to tell you to go down and have a look."

Jihe: "..."

He was a little surprised. He subconsciously looked at Lu Ming and found that he had the same reaction. Master Ye is usually a person who does not drink alcohol. drunk?

Ji He thought for a while, then turned to the outside and said, "Okay. I'll go down right now, and I'll ask the shopkeeper to take care of it."

"Hey, good."

After finishing speaking, the boss went downstairs with a "thump, thump, thump".

Lu Ming came over and said: "It seems that Junior Brother Ye has found something outside, and it is something that is not acceptable."

"I think so." Ji He agreed, "But to let such a self-restraining person drink away his sorrows, it shows that this is not a small matter."

After finishing speaking, he was ready to go out. As soon as he opened the door, Lu Ming squeezed out. Ji He took a look at him, which meant that the boss didn't know you were back. If he saw you suddenly appearing in my room, he wouldn't know What would he think, but he rolled the words in his heart twice, swallowed them abruptly, and acquiesced to Lu Ming's actions.

Lu Ming looked at him arrogantly for a while, and found that he did not refuse, and then followed him downstairs with a satisfied face.

It was indeed very late at night, and it was still raining outside. Only the boss and the waiter were still in the lobby. They put Ye Qingyu next to a table and looked at him one by one.

Ji He and Lu Ming walked down, and the owner's waiter looked up at the same time. Unexpectedly, the boss didn't show any surprise at the two of them appearing at the same time. He just raised his eyebrows meaningfully, and then stepped aside. As if this was what he expected.

Ji He was inexplicably ashamed. He tried his best to look normal. He and Lu Ming came to the lobby one after the other. Seeing Ye Qingyu was really drunk and lying on the side of the table unconsciously. walked over.

Lu Ming glanced with his hands behind his back, and said, "He came back alone?"

After finishing speaking, she felt that she had asked nonsense, Ye Qingyu would definitely come back alone if she went out alone.

The boss said: "Yes. Xianjun was fine when he left, I don't know how much he drank and came back, but..." He leaned over to smell it again, "The smell of this wine is very similar to the smell of Qingfengyuan."

Ji He took a close look at Ye Qingyu's face, and found that there was still a trace of pain in his brows that were flushed with drunkenness, so he couldn't help but stand up straight and said, "The shopkeeper can still tell which shop he drank at?"

"Naturally," the boss said with a smile, "not to mention other houses, but Qingfengyuan's fermented rice is the most special. They have an exclusive brewing recipe. It is said that it has been passed down for hundreds of years. No other family can learn it. It has been famous for a long time. , so as soon as you smell it, you know it belongs to his family. It’s just that Ye Xianjun would go to Qingfengyuan to drink.”

Lu Ming said: "Why?"

"Well," the boss smiled subtly, "I don't know about it, this Qingfengyuan is a good place for us, and there is a lot of beautiful young men in it, and they will never leave after entering it for safekeeping."

Luming: "..."

He was just about to say something, when Ye Qingyu woke up in a daze, saw him, and said vaguely: "Sect Master, you are here..."

Lu Ming frowned, walked to his side with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't Junior Brother come to check on Lord Dao Ling's whereabouts? Why are you so indulgent and still go to that kind of place?"

Ye Qingyu may have had alcohol on his head, but after hearing this, he could still laugh foolishly: "Sect Master, don't be angry... This is also the first time for me. I don't know that there is such a happy place in the world. Staying in the sect as a I really don't know how many things I missed..."

Ji He was shocked. He didn't expect him to say such a thing. Then he looked back at Lu Ming, and saw that his face was gloomy, as if sullen, and quickly bent down to pat Ye Qingyu's chest. How much did you drink and what happened, Master? Master..."

Ye Qingyu fell asleep in a daze again, unable to wake up no matter how much he shouted, Ji He sighed, trying to straighten his body, patted his body twice again, and suddenly felt a bulging thing.

He stopped, touched him, opened Ye Qingyu's collar, and found a delicate lotus-colored purse hidden inside.

He took out the purse, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it, but before he could see what was embroidered on it, a voice came from the stairs: "What are you carrying?"

Ji He turned his face away, and saw Shen Tang came down at some point, looking at him with surprise on his face.

Lu Ming also looked over, and Ji He suddenly felt a bad premonition.

Shen Tang came over, looked at the purse in his hand, raised his head and said, "This used to belong to my father, why is it in your hand?"
