The rivers and lakes are full of vests

After drinking strong alcohol, Fu Peibai's whole body warmed up, and the banquet became more and more lively, only Lu Qingwan smiled very reluctantly, and looked up from time to time to Ding Yi who was drinking with Meng Yan on the opposite side.

Fu Peibai saw everything in his eyes, and could vaguely understand Lu Qingwan's mood. After all, the rumor that Ding Yi was the suzerain's illegitimate son had already spread in Tianji Sect. It is not known how Wen Cheng answered.

She also thought about the person who was less present, the peak master, how should he feel when he learned that his father, who was always upright and upright, had such a big illegitimate child outside?

Thinking of this, she felt a little uncomfortable, but looking at Ding Yi who was smiling wantonly, he was so innocent.

Her mood became more and more heavy, and she couldn't help drinking a few more glasses of wine, and an unnatural blush gradually appeared on her face.

Afu walked up to her and poked her on the shoulder, then pointed to the noodles that were about to cool down in front of her, and asked, "Apei, why don't you eat noodles? You are a birthday boy."

Fu Peibai looked at the noodles in the bowl, and his thoughts were inevitably drawn back to today, a year ago.

In the quiet and warm house, a bowl of noodles was shared between the two of them. At that time, she experienced the long-lost sense of happiness after her family was ruined and dead. Eating an ordinary bowl of noodles was extremely satisfying, but now, everything seems to be human. That's it.

"Ape?"

Fu Peibai's wandering thoughts were pulled back, she picked up the chopsticks, put a handful of noodles into her mouth, but the next moment her expression became complicated, and she slowly put down the chopsticks.

"This noodle... seems to have put too much salt."

Hearing this, Afu was stunned, Meng Yan also put down his wine glass, and even Huo Jiaran, who was gnawing on the chicken leg, stopped chewing.

Everyone was silent at the same time, and the atmosphere was a little strangely quiet. Finally, Meng Yan said vaguely: "Maybe Aunt Wang's hand trembled today, and she accidentally let it go too much, right, Aunt Wang."

Aunt Wang on the side nodded hurriedly, holding a chopstick of vegetables to cover up her panic.

"Okay." Fu Peibai said, going to pick up another plate of vegetables, Meng Yan stretched out his hand to stop her, "Don't you want to eat the noodles? Aunt Wang made the noodles by herself early in the morning, she worked so hard to make them."

"This..." It's not that she doesn't want to eat it, it's just that the noodles are too salty, so salty that it's hard to swallow.

Meng Yan softened his voice, as if he was requesting, "Eat some, eat some more, depending on Aunt Wang's wish."

Having said all this, Fu Peibai could only bite the bullet and eat two more bites. Just as he was about to move his chopsticks, Ni Zhi, who had been eating quietly by his side, tugged at her sleeve, and said a little confused: "Brother Apei, This noodle is obviously..."

"Zhi'er!"

Before the little girl finished speaking, Meng Yan got up suddenly and interrupted her at the top of her voice, making Ni Zhi stunned.

Meng Yan also realized that he was too excited, and quickly came to her side, patting her back and stroking her head in a low voice to coax her.

Fu Peibai looked at the noodles, then at the people who deliberately avoided her suspicious eyes, and suddenly understood something.

The suspicion on her face gradually faded, she picked up her chopsticks again, and started eating slowly, her eyes turned red as she ate.

With an inaudible "tick", the noodle soup rippled in a circle, and then a few drops, hot tears fell into the soup and mixed together, she ate all the noodles and drank all the noodle soup, One clean bowl remained.

Meng Yan could see that she was in a bad mood, and dragged her to drink a lot of wine.

At the end of the birthday banquet, Fu Peibai didn't know whether it was because of the cold or the drunkenness, his whole body became limp, his legs couldn't be straightened, so he had to sleep in Mengyan House.

Meng Yan tucked the quilt over the young man who was sleeping in a dishonest position, looking at the handsome face that used to be radiant, now even his facial features were slightly wrinkled when he was asleep, and there was an undispelled melancholy between his brows.

He sighed deeply, and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep, kid." After saying that, he pushed the door lightly and left the room.

Not long after he left, the door opened again, and Lu Yanran quietly came to the side of the couch, staring at Fu Peibai's sleeping face in the faint moonlight.

Only at this moment, she can temporarily take off the mask of "Lu Yanran" and become Seventeen again.

She stretched out her hand, trembling her fingertips, brushed Fu Peibai's eyebrows, and said softly: "Apei..."

The person on the bed was clearly asleep, but he suddenly reached out and grabbed Lu Yanran, muttering something vaguely.

Lu Yanran was slightly startled, thinking that Fu Peibai had woken up, but after the other party grabbed her wrist, he didn't move, as if he was just talking in his sleep.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to take Fu Peibai's hand away, but she couldn't do anything, so she had to give up, letting her wrist hurt slightly from being grabbed by the other party.

The moonlight was like water, and the light-transmitting paper window sprinkled on Fu Peibai's face. The soft halo softened her heroic facial features, her eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and it was only at this moment that she showed a rare daughter's posture.

Lu Yanran looked at her carefully, her eyes were gentle, she just stared at her for a long time, guessing the time, it was time to leave, so she stretched out her hand again to try to pull Fu Peibai's hand away, but just a little bit of force, the other person seemed to be frightened , sat up and yelled "No!"

In the dark room, Fu Peibai was the one who gasped heavily after the exclamation. She looked at the person in front of her in astonishment, and couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. After a long while, she said in a dumb voice: "Peak Master?"

Lu Yanran returned to his indifferent and reserved appearance, and hummed.

Fu Peibai's chaotic brain was more than half awake in an instant. She looked down and found that she was holding the peak master's wrist. She quickly withdrew her hand and asked hastily, "Why did the peak master come here?"

Lu Yanran didn't speak, his expression seemed to be contemplative, and he said after a while, "Today is your birthday?"

Fu Peibai was dumbfounded, and nodded in cooperation with Lu Yanran.

"Happy birthday."

The woman's soft words made Fu Peibai's heart suddenly sour.

The peak master has never changed, but she has changed.

"Rest, I'm leaving."

After Lu Yanran finished speaking, she got up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Fu Peibai the next moment.

"Peak Lord!"

"What's the matter?"

Enduring the soreness in his nasal cavity, Fu Peibai choked up and said, "That bowl of noodles...is delicious, thank you."

Lu Yanran's body froze, a look of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes, "It's okay, go to sleep."

She pushed open the door, and just as she took one leg, she was stopped by someone behind her. She felt a little helpless, Fu Peibai always seemed to be like this, after drinking, he would be much bolder and clingier.

"What's the matter?"

Fu Peibai lowered her head, perhaps feeling emboldened by alcohol, for a moment just now, she wanted to speak out everything without any scruples, as well as her obscure emotions towards Shi Qi, but when the words came to her lips, the sudden courage suddenly came to her. Like a flood, all faded away.

She was afraid, afraid that the peak master would be sad because of this, and also afraid that the peak master would be angry and ignore her again.

She can choose to suppress all her feelings for Shiqi against her conscience, and pretend nothing happened, but it's not fair, it's not fair to Peak Master, she shouldn't and can't say she likes Peak Master with such impure feelings , she can't...

Fu Peibai was still engaged in a battle between heaven and man, but Lu Yanran seemed to have seen her emotional ups and downs. She walked back to the couch, pushed Fu Peibai's shoulder with one hand, and pushed him down on the ground. on the couch.

When Fu Peibai was amazed, he felt a cool hand covering his eyes, his sight became dark, and his hearing became sharp.

The cold voice was as warm as the palm, "Sleep."

The words fell to the ground, but the hand did not withdraw. Fu Peibai blinked, and her eyelashes brushed against the cool palm. She keenly noticed that the peak master's hand flinched.

Just two words, but it has a powerful magic power to soothe the heart and purify the spirit. Fu Peibai calmed down, and the drowsiness also slowly hit her. It also faded away, she turned sideways, looked in the direction of the door, and murmured: "Peak Master... I'm sorry..." After saying that, she fell asleep completely.

The figure at the door was stunned for a moment, the hand gripping the door frame was tightened, and he said in an inaudible voice: "You have never been sorry to me, it is me, I am sorry to you."

......

"Xiaobai, are you still awake?"

With Meng Yan's loud voice, the door was pushed open, and the sleeping person on the bed suddenly woke up with palpitations.

"It's been a quarter of an hour. You can't afford it, kid. I have to invite you."

Fu Peibai was startled, it was so late, she got up quickly, put on her robe, and was about to run to the Qianshan school grounds, Meng Yan stretched out her arm to stop her and said: "I'm asking you for leave, rest now, What do you want to eat?"

Fu Peibai shook his head, he was not hungry, but a little unwell after drinking.

Meng Yan looked at her dull face, and patted her on the shoulder, "Look at you, you haven't woken up yet, forget it, go back to sleep, and I'll wake you up for dinner at noon."

After Meng Yan left, Fu Peibai sat back on the side of the couch. After sitting for a while, his bewildered mind finally came to his senses, and the memories of last night flooded back.

Her expression gradually became dignified, and then thousands of thoughts turned into a long sigh.

Since she asked for leave today, she naturally couldn't waste it in vain. She went to Cang Qiong Peak to find Xie Jingming. On the surface, she came to visit him and catch up on the past, but in fact, she came here to inquire about news.

During the conversation, she mentioned Feiyuan Pavilion intentionally or unintentionally, Xie Jingming thought she was curious, and revealed the specific location of Feiyuan Pavilion on Qingliao Peak in a few words.

Fu Peibai got the message he wanted, so he didn't stay any longer, and immediately returned to Chaoquan, waiting for the night to come.

Time passed bit by bit, the lights and noise outside the house gradually diminished, and finally there was silence inside and outside the house. Fu Peibai changed into black clothes, covered his face with a black cloth, and wrapped his head with a black scarf, revealing only a pair of deep eyes. .

She touched Ming Xiao who was hidden in her waist, took a deep breath, and slipped into the thick night.

Qingliao Peak's guards were not strict, at least on the surface, she easily sneaked into the vicinity of Feiyuan Pavilion.

The pavilion a few feet high in front of her was very ordinary, and there were no guards at the door. She looked around, tapped her foot, and turned into a black shadow, and turned into the pavilion through the window with a snap.

The entire Book Collection Pavilion is three stories high, and the inside is circular, surrounded by wooden steps that wind upwards, and the wall is full of books, and there is nothing strange at first glance.

Fu Peibai was about to investigate carefully, when he moved his ears, he heard footsteps and conversations gradually approaching in the distance.

The pavilion was empty, and she had nowhere to hide, so she could only take a few steps up the wooden ladder, go up to the attic on the top floor, and hide in the shadows.

The sound of footsteps was approaching. Listening to the sound, there were two people who came, their steps were steady, and it could be seen that their internal strength was good. Who else could come to the suzerain's pavilion in such a dignified manner in the middle of the night, except Lu Wencheng.

Fu Pei held his breath, feeling a little nervous, and quietly listened to the movement below.

"Has the manpower at Hanyang been arranged?"

Sure enough, it was Lu Wencheng's voice.

Immediately there was another male voice in response, "It's all arranged, they are all nimble people, and nothing will go wrong."

Fu Peibai was familiar with this voice, it was Lu Wencheng's bodyguard, Wu Zhong.

Lu Wencheng hummed, and raised his hand to tap an ancient book on the bookshelf. On the originally flat ground, a stone brick was slowly opened, revealing the deep secret passage underneath.

The two were about to walk down, but Lu Wencheng suddenly stopped. He scanned the bookshelves and found that the position of one of the booklets had changed. His eyes sharpened, and he looked up at the dark place on the third floor.

Fu Peibai somehow felt that sharp gaze, and his body tensed up, not daring to move a little.

"What's the matter, suzerain?"

Lu Wencheng withdrew his gaze, and seemingly unintentionally stepped down a step towards the secret path, "It's all right."

Fu Peibai breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, a book suddenly flew towards her hiding place, approaching the door, she quickly turned her head to avoid it, and jumped out from the window on the third floor, while Lu Wencheng's furious roar sounded behind her Voice.

"Catch him! If you want to live, you want to see people, and if you die, you want to see corpses!"
