There is an open space at the back of Qingyang Mountain. It was originally opened up for disciples to practice martial arts, but no one knows who beat the head. Slowly, this open space became a place for outer disciples to play and play Cuju in their spare time. court.

Today is sunny, the sun is shining warmly, a group of teenagers are playing Cuju in the open space, and laughter comes from there from time to time.

Lou Lou sat behind the tree by himself, holding the biscuits he had just received from the cafeteria in his hand, and while eating, he looked at the picture books he picked up from the ground a few days ago.

He has been in Qingyang Mountain for less than half a year.

After Qin Dongyi's injury improved, he often went out with Qi Huan to take missions to practice. He had little time to stay in Qingyang Mountain, and he was very busy when he came back. Haven't seen him for a long time.

During the days when Qin Dong wasn't paying attention, Lou Lou dutifully did his work as a handyman disciple.He doesn't like to socialize with others, and usually likes to be alone, just like now.

He lowered his head and took a bite of the biscuits, and turned a page of the picture book.

He couldn't understand the accompanying text in the picture book, so he could only read the pictures on it over and over again.

This is something he picked up from the back mountain. When he picked it up, the book was crumpled. Lou Lou took it home to smooth it out, and carried it with him every day like a baby.

He sat alone under the tree. After a while, something flew over in the distance and hit him on the shoulder.

Lou Lou froze for a moment, then looked sideways, and saw that a Cuju had rolled to the ground.

He knew that someone was playing Cuju in the open space in the distance, so he looked back subconsciously, and saw two or three teenagers in Qingyangshan school uniform running towards this side.

"Hey, kid, have you seen our ball?"

Those people stood against the light, but Loulou didn't see clearly, just nodded and pointed to the direction where the Cuju rolled down.

The man thanked him and went to pick up the ball. Loulou didn't pay much attention, just lowered his head and continued to read the picture book, until a familiar voice came from his ear:

"It's you?"

Hearing this voice, Loulou trembled subconsciously.

He slowly raised his eyes to look at the source of the sound, only to see that it was Zhou Wu, the outer disciple who had been on a mission with Qin Dongyi before.

Hearing Zhou Wu's words, the brothers next to him wondered:

"Hey, do you recognize him?"

Zhou Wu smiled strangely: "Of course I do."

He thought the child died long ago, but he didn't expect that the child was so dead that he still stayed in Qingyang Mountain.

The little senior brother next to him didn't notice his strangeness, and said cheerfully:

"Good acquaintance, let's play together. Little brother, do you want to play Cuju with us?"

Loulou subconsciously shook her head.

Zhou Wu also said at this time:

"Forget it, he doesn't like to play these things."

Lou Lou shrank back, and then watched a few outer disciples talking and laughing as they walked away.

Before leaving, Zhou Wu turned his head and glared at him threateningly.

Loulou knew that he hated herself, and she didn't like him either.

He hurriedly put away the biscuits and picture books, and left the open space behind the mountain after the boys had gone far.

At that time, Lou Lou made a decision in his heart that he would never come here again.Out of sight and out of mind is the best policy for people you hate.

But when he was young, he still didn't understand a truth:

Sometimes even if you don't look for trouble, trouble will find you.

That day, Loulou changed to a different place to eat sesame seed cakes, and then went to water and weed the spiritual grass on other hills. When he returned to the disciple's dormitory in the west wing, it was already very late.

He trotted all the way back to his residence, but when he opened the door, the wooden door was locked from the inside.

It's not time to turn off the lights yet, Loulou thought that the brothers in the dormitory had forgotten him, so he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

But there was a burst of laughter from the room.

A child was lying on the crack of the door and said to Lou Lou outside:

"A brother from the outer sect came here today and asked us to take good care of you. Don't blame us. Who told you to offend people outside?"

"That's right, let's go, don't let us also be hated by the outer brothers."

The child inside you said one sentence to another, and said the most hurtful words in the most innocent tone.

Listening to what they said, Loulou silently clenched her fists.

He pursed his lips and said:

"My stuff."

The children inside knew that he couldn't speak, and listening to his clumsy expression at this time, they laughed like they were listening to a joke.

After they had laughed enough, they mercifully gave Lou Lou the answer:

"Throw it out, you can look for it yourself."

Loulou didn't want to stay here any longer, so he turned and left the dormitory, and found his thrown quilt and pillow in the garbage dump behind the house.

He picked up his things and took them all the way to a remote corner at the back of the house.

He shrank in the corner and covered himself with a quilt.Fortunately, Qingyang Mountain is always in spring and summer, and the night is not so cold. Even if it is outdoors, a thin quilt is enough to deal with it.

Loulou stayed in that corner for three days.

Qingyang Mountain pays more attention to the class of disciples. For the disciples of handymen, the junior brothers of the outer sect are already unattainable big shots, and they will naturally do their best to fulfill their orders.

And there were not many people around Lou Lou who could talk, and now Zhou Wu made such a fuss, the handyman disciples at the same level were afraid of being implicated, and they all wished to stay away from him.

But this is not a very sad thing for Lou Lou.

He was originally withdrawn and didn't like to deal with people, but now he just lives in a worse place.But even the environment like the corner is much better than the place he stayed in when he was wandering.

At night, Lou Lou was wearing a small quilt and reading picture books by the light of the lantern above her head as usual.

He flipped through the picture book several times, but he couldn't get enough of it.

He looked at the little figure in the picture above, a little absorbed, and didn't even notice the recent footsteps.It wasn't until a shadow was cast on his drawing book that he raised his eyes and looked over in a daze.

The young man in front of him looked at him with clear eyes and a slight frown.

"Why are you here?"

Qin Dongyi just came back from a mission with Qi Huan this afternoon. When passing by the west chamber, he accidentally glanced sideways and saw a small figure shrunk in the corner.

He thought about coming over to see what was going on, but found that the child he had brought back was sitting here pitifully.

Lou Lou closed the picture book and shook his head.

But if he didn't say anything, Qin Dongyi could probably guess what was going on.

This child is not very good at talking and has an introverted personality, probably because he was squeezed out by the children who slept with him.

Qin Dongyi sighed in his heart.

Seeing this, he naturally couldn't just sit idly by, so he half-knelt down and looked at Lou Lou, and asked:

"It's cold at night, do you want to go back with me first?"

Lou Lou was taken back to Shutong Courtyard by Qin Dongyi just like that.

Ever since Qin Dongyi woke up from that serious injury, Lou Lou was afraid of causing him trouble, and since he had no reason to visit him, Lou Lou never came again.

Now, after many days, Lou Lou entered Shutong Courtyard again, and Lou Lou felt a little cramped. He hugged the little quilt and didn't know what to do.I could only sit by the bed and look at his picture book.

Qin Dongyi has always lived alone, so naturally there is only one bed in the room of Shutong Courtyard.

When it was time to go to bed, Loulou huddled obediently in the bed just like in the inn that day, occupying only a small space.

He didn't know if he couldn't sleep or what, he kept flipping through his drawing books by the light of the bedside night light.

Seeing this, Qin Dongyi glanced sideways.

It is a very common picture book in the mortal world. The picture is the main character as the supplement, and it usually tells stories such as legends and myths.

He looked at Loulou holding the picture book all the time, and seemed to like it very much, but the child probably couldn't read, and he didn't know if he could understand it.

Thinking of this, Qin Dongyi looked at the picture above and asked aloud:

"Do you understand?"

Loulou nodded, then shook his head again.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Dongyi, then closed the drawing book and handed it to him.

Qin Dongyi bent his lips and smiled, took it, glanced at it, and began to tell him seriously from the first page.

This picture book tells the story of a down-and-out little beggar and a fairy.

In the story, the little beggar rescued an iris flower that was about to wither when he was wandering. Later, in order to repay the little beggar, the fairy of the iris flower came to him, became good friends with him, and taught him to read and write.

Finally, the little beggar grew up, won the first prize in the examination, and became a high official.He took the iris flower away, expressed his heart to the iris fairy, and the two lived happily together forever.

Loulou was fascinated, and he asked:

"iris?"

"Yeah." Qin Dong meant to show him the pictures in the drawing book:

"This is the iris."

Loulou nodded half-understanding, and asked again:

"Little beggar and fairy, will they be together forever?"

"Well, we will be together forever." Qin Dongyi showed him the two small figures holding hands on the last page, then closed the drawing book and returned it to Lou Lou:

"The story is over, shall we sleep?"

Loulou nodded and put the picture book beside her pillow.

It turns out that gods can only be nice to one person and stay with them forever.

Before closing her eyes, Lou Lou secretly made a wish in her heart.

It would be great if he could be with the gods forever.

At dawn the next day, Lou Lou opened his eyes, but there was no one around him.

He obviously got up very early and wanted to say good morning to Qin Dongyi.This is a new word he learned, and he wanted to tell Qin Dongyi, but it was too late.

Loulou didn't know what mood she was in, she was probably a little disappointed.

So he got up silently, made the bed, and cleaned Qin Dongyi's room again.

Finally, holding his little quilt and picture book, he left Shutong Courtyard and returned to the West Wing.

There is a necessary road from Shutong Courtyard to the west chamber, which is a place further inside from the disciple's dormitory, which is closer to the back mountain and the cold spring.

There is a small stream flowing down from the top of the mountain. When the sun is good, the light will be reflected on the stream, making the water sparkling.

Lou Lou liked this stream very much. He walked along the water to the west chamber, his steps getting faster and faster, and finally changed to a small hop, chasing the butterflies all the way down.

But as he walked, his steps stopped, and then he froze in place.

He saw an unformed log cabin appeared on the open space opposite the creek at some point. Two teenagers were trimming the wood with their sleeves rolled up.

None of them spotted him.

Qi also wiped his sweat with his wrist. He heard Qin Dongyi's general account of what happened this morning, and he was dragged here to work as a coolie.

He sighed, sat down on the ground, and said:

"Junior brother, it's their own business when the children are awkward. You are good enough to move them out directly. Doesn't this completely cut off their social interaction? Let me tell you, this kind of thing should be handled by the children themselves. You look at you……"

Qi was still talking non-stop, and when he finished speaking, Qin Dongyi raised his eyes and glanced at him:

"He can't even speak, how to socialize, how to deal with it?"

"It's true..." Qi Huan nodded, and said:

"Then you go directly to the leader of the group of children and threaten him, and if you bully Lou Lou again, you won't give him food. It will be done once and for all!"

Qin Dongyi didn't speak, but shook his head helplessly.

Qi Huan just complained a few words when he was tired, but after resting, he also shut up, stood up silently and continued nailing the planks.

While working, he didn't know what he thought of, and said with a smile:

"You just get used to him. Be careful that this kid recognizes you and pesters you for the rest of his life."

Qin Dong didn't care about his jokes.

He bent down and put together a table, and when he looked up, he happened to see Lou Lou who was holding a small quilt in the distance.

Qin Dongyi froze for a moment, then smiled and waved at him.

Lou Lou was in a daze, he raised his hand and waved at Qin Dongyi.

As a result, the small quilt and picture book in his arms fell to the ground because of his actions.

Qi Huan's laughter came from over there.

Lou Lou didn't care, he picked up the things and put them in his arms again, then he took a step and ran towards Qin Dongyi.

In the days that followed, Loulou often recalled that scene.

That day, the boy was standing beside the half-finished cabin in white, smiling and waving at him in the sunshine.

The heartbeat at that moment made the world lose its color.
