"Xiaobai, what are you thinking?" Afu waved her hand in front of Fu Peibai.

Fu Peibai came back to her senses suddenly, her heart was beating like thunder, she didn't dare to look at Lu Yanran again, she looked away in a panic, and stammered: "Peak Master, I, I'm going to wash my face."

She didn't wait for Lu Yanran to respond, and ran away. She ran in the forest with mottled shadows. She didn't know how long she ran. She didn't stop until she ran out of the forest and a deep lake appeared in front of her.

She knelt by the lake, scooped up a handful of water and splashed it fiercely on her face, but the cold lake water could not drench her burning heart. She plunged her head into the water and held her breath until the last moment. He raised his head, gasping for breath.

She didn't know what was wrong with herself, why was she imagining what the peak master said to her just now, why was her heart beating so passionately because of the four words in her fantasy, as if she was going to jump out of her chest, why was she like that Afraid of losing the peak master.

Why, why, she couldn't find the answer to the questions she was full of, or she didn't dare to face the answer.

She sat weakly by the lake, looking at her own reflection on the lake by the moonlight, her face was much more heroic than that of an ordinary woman, her nose was thinner and taller, and her facial contours were much clearer than that of an ordinary woman, dressed as a man Hardly anyone would have noticed that she was actually a woman.

She picked up a piece of gravel and threw it at the Mirror Flower, Water Moon, and the human face reflected in the lake shattered immediately, turning into circles of ripples and rippling away.

She hooked her lips, and there was a faint smile on her face, which seemed to be sarcasm.

Why, pretending to be Erlang, do you really think you are Erlang?

Just like that, she sat by the lake and blew the wind for half the night. When she returned, Lu Yanran and Afu had already slept against the tree trunk, and the other guards slept a little further away.

The flames of the fire were much smaller, she approached lightly, added some firewood, and then looked at Lu Yanran's beautiful face under the dim light of the fire, she stared at the sleeping woman, looking at the other's eyebrows and eyes with nostalgia , facial features.

She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit in her heart that she did have a sense of treachery towards Lu Yanran, how absurd and ridiculous it is for a woman to fall in love with a woman, she would never be able to express this unspeakable feeling, she even dared not Imagine how disgusting Lu Yanran would feel if he found out that he was pretending to be a man and had feelings for her.

Fu Peibai couldn't imagine that scene, let alone accept it.

After blowing the cool wind in the middle of the night, she still can't extinguish the burning fire in her heart, but she can choose to bury this feeling deep in her heart forever, so that it will never see the light of day. Friends, the most you can hope for is a confidant, as long as you can stay with the Peak Master, take care of her, and protect her, that's enough.

She walked up to Lu Yanran and sat down. The distance between them was only an inch, and they could be touched by reaching out, but she dared not, and she couldn't either.

The flames made the branches crackle, she just tilted her head to look at Lu Yanran, thinking, her expression now should be like the way her father looked at her mother back then, she suddenly understood what it feels like to have someone she admires What's the matter, the heart seems to be stuffed into a honeypot, and it will produce full and sour emotions. It will make you happy, worried, sad, and you can't help but look forward to it, and you will inevitably lose it. Love What a wonderful thing.

She just watched for a while, until a cool night breeze blew, she quickly took off her outer robe, carefully covered Lu Yanran's body, then walked to a tree a little far away to sit down, and slowly closed her eyes.

After sleeping for about two or three hours, Fu Peibai heard Afu's voice calling him, "Xiaobai, wake up, it's time for us to go."

When she opened her eyes, she was still a little dazed, and subconsciously looked towards Lu Yanran, but that seat was already empty, and she looked down at the robe that had been covering her body at some point, pursed her lips, and stood up.

Others got up one after another, packing their bags and putting out the fire.

"Sister Afu, I'm going to wash my face and wake up."

"Go ahead, hurry up."

Fu Peibai came to the lake again, the bright yellow light of the sunrise reflected the golden light on the lake, she was a little dazed, sighed, washed her face quickly and returned to the motorcade.

After she sat beside Xing Guang, she leaned against the carriage and closed her eyes, looking preoccupied.

As the convoy started to set off, Afu pulled the reins, took two steps forward on the horse, and asked with concern: "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?"

Fu Peibai opened his eyes and forced a smile, "It's nothing, it's just that I didn't sleep well last night, so I want to catch up on sleep."

"Speaking of last night, you said you went to wash your face, why didn't you come back for most of the day, and I fell asleep afterwards."

"By the way, I practiced martial arts in the woods."

"Okay then, you have a rest, and you should be able to arrive at Xingyang City in the afternoon," Afu said, and rode back to her original position.

Fu Peibai really didn't get enough sleep last night, and he suddenly recognized the dark and unclear emotions in his heart. He was confused and had a headache. He was about to close his eyes and go to sleep when he heard a voice from the carriage, "Fu Peibai".

She trembled all over, realizing that this seemed to be the first time that the Peak Master had called her by her full name directly. The voice was not loud, the tone was not fluctuating, let alone gentle, but she just felt a little bit of joy when she was called.

She turned around and asked, "What's the matter, Peak Master?"

"Come in and rest."

She opened her mouth slightly, feeling extremely entangled in her heart. Rationally she warned herself not to go in, but emotionally she was naturally very willing. After a while of entanglement, she still said softly: "No need, Peak Master, I'm just outside It will be done in a short while."

Just as she turned around, she heard the voice from inside the car curtain again, this time with a little indifference, "Do you still want me to come out and invite you?"

"..."

Helpless, she could only bend down and get into the carriage. As soon as she entered the carriage, she was surrounded by the familiar light fragrance. on your knees, looking straight ahead.

She could feel the scrutinizing gaze cast on her body, and she couldn't help but clutch her knees tightly, feeling uneasy.

This gaze did not move away for a long time, she was a little hairy from being stared at, and said shyly: "Feng, Peak Master, what's wrong?"

Lu Yanran frowned, her expression was a little hesitant to say something, after a while, her expression returned to normal, and she said lightly: "It's nothing."

Fu Peibai said "Oh" twice, and continued to sit upright.

Lu Yanran's original intention was to let her come in to rest, but she couldn't relax, so she just sat there for several hours, until the motorcade drove into Xingyang City, and went to the Chengdong Inn to settle down. Coincidentally, they The last time she stayed was the inn where she knelt down in the stable and begged Lu Yanran a few months ago.

After opening the room and putting away the luggage, she came to the stable, looked at it, and recalled the scenes at that time, and was filled with emotions for a while.

She was standing in the stable recalling the past when a voice suddenly sounded behind her, "What are you looking at?"

It was Lu Yanran's voice, Fu Peibai turned around in a panic, "Peak Master, why are you walking so silently?"

"scared you?"

Fu Peibai shook his head, "No, I just saw this and thought of the past, thinking that if the peak master hadn't given me a chance at that time, what would I be now."

"However, why was the peak master willing to give me a chance?"

Lu Yanran didn't answer immediately, she looked at this familiar place, and the memories seemed to bring her back to a few months ago, when they set off from Huailiu to Xingyang City, she always knew that Fu Peibai was following them , but she didn't take it to heart, the youthful blood will be wiped out in a few days, but what surprised her was that she saw Fu Peibai again in the stable that night.

A dark and thin young man, unkempt, yellow and thin, with black mud in his nails, but his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, begging himself to give her a chance, she had a deep feeling that this person is uncut jade , is Meng Chen's sword, and in the future, when it will show its sharpness, she will throw the jade pendant out by accident, and then enter the mountain. The more she gets in touch with it, the more she feels that she didn't misjudge the person at the beginning. Fu Peibai has something strange in the world Some things are very precious.

"Peak Master?" Fu Peibai whispered, seeing that Lu Yanran seemed to be in a daze.

Lu Yanran came back to his senses, and casually said: "If you give it, you will give it, there is no reason for it", and then left.

Fu Peibai was a little disappointed. Although she didn't want to admit it, she did expect Lu Yanru's answer just now. What did she expect? It was nothing more than those words that made Fu Peibai feel that she was a special existence because you were different from others. She laughed at herself. own wishful thinking.

Fu Peibai didn't stay at the inn for dinner, but went to the old man's yard. After a few months away, he was finally able to visit the old man this time.

When she arrived, the yard was quiet, and no one answered when she knocked on the door. She pushed open the small wooden door and entered the yard, only to find that the room was pitch black, as if no one was there.

She thought about standing in the yard and waiting, but she was a little bored, so she wandered around, looking at the stove, the herb room, and the well.

Unexpectedly, there was a loud shout from behind, "Little thief, take a trick from my master!"

Fu Peibai's whole body became alert, and her ears caught the whistling wind behind her. She subconsciously dodged sideways, but the attacker suddenly flew into the air, and fell straight to the ground without stopping her strength.

The man on the ground was about to stand up and fight again, Fu Peibai looked at the familiar back, his guard relaxed, and he said helplessly, "Ding Yi."

The young man on the ground froze immediately, then stood up abruptly, ignoring his ashes, and rushed towards Fu Peibai yelling.

"noob!"

Fu Peibai didn't refuse, and let the other party embrace him, and the old man's surprised voice came from behind, "Xiaobai? You're back?"

Fu Peibai was dragged by Ding's hands and feet, so he could only turn his head around with difficulty, and greeted old man Wen with a smile, "Uncle Wen."

Hearing the wine, the old man strode forward, quite delighted, "Oh, oh, it's really Xiaobai, it's been only a few months, why does it feel like we haven't seen each other for a few years?" As he said, he Seeing Ding Yi's movements, he blew his beard and stared and reprimanded: "Stinky boy, what are you doing? Xiaobai is a girl, do you understand what it means to be incompatible with each other? Why don't you hurry up and get rid of your dirty son?" Take the claws off!"

Ding Yi let go of Fu Peibai, touched the back of his head, and smiled brightly, "I'm so happy to see Xiaobai, I can't help it for a while, and seeing Xiaobai's dress and demeanor at first glance, how can I see it?" It's a girl."

Fu Peibai said with a hearty smile: "It's okay, Uncle Wen, the sons and daughters of the world, don't care about these things."

Wen the old man stroked his beard and laughed, "Hahaha, what a son and daughter of a quack, you have been here for only a few months, and you really have the demeanor of a quack, not bad."

"Let's go, I'll welcome Xiaobai today, and I'll treat you to guests," the old man Wen said quite proudly.

"No, Uncle Wen, I should be the one to invite this meal. Back then, I was poor and empty. If it weren't for you and Ding Yiyi's help, I wouldn't be where I am today. I should come here for this meal."

The old man Wen was not shy, and said boldly: "Okay, since you have said so, I will not evade any more excuses, let's go for a walk and have a drink."
