Jiang Yunlou fell into a drowsy sleep, and when he woke up again, the sky outside had completely darkened, and Dongfang Bubai, who said he had only been out for a while, couldn't even see a piece of his clothes.

He frowned, thinking that Dongfang Bubai should have come back during the time he fell asleep, Jiang Yunlou picked up his cloak, put it on his body, and walked out of the room slowly.

Downstairs came the chatter of disciples of the divine religion.

The inn in the town was originally very deserted, especially when the spring rain continued, the people coming and going were even rarer. The only tables in the lobby on the first floor were disciples of the Sun Moon God Sect, and the two girls on one of the tables It was Cheng Bi and Cheng Ying.

They were holding a cup of tea each, and there was a plate of melon seeds on the table, as if they were chatting.

It was indeed right to ask Chengbi to take care of Cheng Ying.

Jiang Yunlou stood at the stairs for a while, and when he was hesitating, Cheng Ying suddenly turned her head and met his eyes.

Was caught straight.

Under the expectant eyes of the little girl, Jiang Yunlou had no choice but to pretend that he was about to go downstairs.

Chengbi also saw Jiang Yunlou who was coming down from the upstairs, she hurriedly stood up and said concernedly: "My lord, are you awake?"

She went up to meet him and stretched out her hand to help Jiang Yunlou, but Jiang Yunlou waved his hand to signal her not to do so, and sat down beside Cheng Ying.

Cheng Bi stood beside him, poured him a cup of tea with her own hands, and said, "Young Master seemed to be asleep when the servant girl went to deliver the porridge just now, so I dare not bother you anymore. Young Master, what do you want to use now?"

It turned out that it was Chengbi who knocked on the door at that time.

Jiang Yunlou nodded.

"Just porridge, just heat it up."

Chengbi responded, and immediately went to tell the people in the kitchen to prepare food.

Jiang Yunlou raised his hand and rubbed Cheng Ying's little head, and said in a warm voice, "Are you tired from the carriage ride all the way?"

Cheng Ying looked at Jiang Yunlou with deer-like eyes and shook her head.

She didn't have many opportunities to communicate with Jiang Yunlou along the way, but she already knew what Jiang Yunlou looked like now. She seemed to be hesitating, and after a while, she asked cautiously: "Brother, are you seriously ill?" ?”

Jiang Yunlou blinked at her.

"No. If I'm seriously ill, I won't go down the mountain to play."

Cheng Ying said: "But you were sleeping all the way, not playing."

Jiang Yunlou rubbed his nose in embarrassment, looked out the window, changed the subject and said, "I'm going to see your cousin tomorrow, are you happy?"

Cheng Ying nodded.

She is very sensible, knowing that Jiang Yunlou has always been reluctant to talk about her body with others, so she said kindly: "I'm happy. I also prepared a gift for her, but I don't know if she will like it."

Jiang Yunlou smiled and said: "In my opinion, she will be very happy when she sees you. No matter what you give her, she will like it."

So Cheng Ying asked him again: "Brother, after I meet my cousin, will we separate soon?"

Jiang Yunlou was taken aback.

"...What about you, do you still want to go back to your godmother's house after meeting Wushuang?"

Cheng Ying nodded without hesitation, and said: "The godmother is very good to me, I can't let her feel cold."

Jiang Yunlou couldn't help pinching her face: "So sensible?"

Cheng Ying stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice: "I often think that it would be great if my cousin was not in the Hengshan School, but in Heimuya..."

Jiang Yunlou smiled and said nothing.

Black Wood Cliff...

Cheng Ying stayed on Heimu Cliff for so long, and he can still maintain such a pure heart, in fact, it is all thanks to Sang Sanniang's protection of Cheng Ying.

He didn't try to break such a naive cognition.

Suddenly, a deep exhaustion welled up in his heart, and Jiang Yunlou realized that he no longer had the energy to take care of everyone.

His energy, his time, are running out.

Jiang Yunlou found it on the roof of the inn, and finally saw Dongfang Bubai.

At this time, the man in red was drinking on the roof, and there were a lot of wine jars under his feet, some were empty, and some were not opened yet.

Dongfang Bubai was probably really drunk, the smell of alcohol all over his body, the wine jars scattered at his feet... he was determined to get drunk.

The night after the rain was exceptionally cool, but the air here was mixed with a strong aroma of wine, and the smoker couldn't help frowning.

Jiang Yunlou's toe accidentally kicked an empty jar and made a noise, but Dongfang Bubai didn't seem to hear it at all. He just drank his own and didn't look back.

Jiang Yunlou bent down, picked up the empty wine jar, and slowly sat down next to the man in red with the jar in his arms.

There was a slight smile in his tone: "Good brother, you're very good, what are you doing drinking here?"

Dongfang Bubai swallowed the wine in his mouth, let out a muffled laugh, and repeated vaguely: "Good brother..."

It was like hearing something extremely funny.

Jiang Yunlou was keenly aware that the other party was in a bad mood, he patted Dongfang Bubai on the back, and said warmly: "It's cold here, let's go back to the room."

Dongfang Bubai grabbed his hand abruptly.

With a deep drunkenness, he called out: "Longevity."

Jiang Yunlou obediently responded.

Dongfang Bubai pulled Jiang Yunlou to lean on him, and asked, "Changsheng, tell me, what is the thing you most want to do?"

Jiang Yunlou didn't know, so he said, "Of course I came out to play."

"Do you want to go home? Do you want to go back to Datang?"

Jiang Yunlou replied, "I don't want to."

Dongfang Bubai closed his mouth.

He held his forehead, and the wine jug he was holding in his hand rolled down the roof and hit the ground with a bang.

Dongfang Bubai felt that he probably really drank too much, and that's why he misheard Jiang Yunlou's answer.

He confirmed it again: "No?"

Jiang Yunlou nodded and replied, "I don't want to."

Dongfang Bubai frowned and asked, "Why don't you want to?"

Jiang Yunlou smiled wryly and said: "Since I can't go back, why should I add trouble to myself? I have long forgotten those things."

Dongfang Bubai snapped him into his arms, hugged him tightly, and the strong smell of alcohol rushed over his face.

"……Lied to me."

Jiang Yunlou helplessly stroked his back, his tone as if coaxing a child: "What did I lie to you for?"

Dongfang Bubai said: "You want me to feel at ease, so you said such things on purpose."

Jiang Yunlou smiled and said, "I haven't."

Dongfang Bubai stubbornly said: "You have."

Jiang Yunlou couldn't help it, so he had to follow his will and said, "Okay, okay, let's go back to the guest room first, and we'll talk after we get back, okay?"

Dongfang Bubai just hugged him and refused to move.

Jiang Yunlou waited for a long time, but Dongfang Bubai still didn't respond. He almost thought that the other party had fallen asleep and was worrying about how to bring him back to the room. Dongfang Bubai pressed against his ear, spitting out warm breath.

There was unspeakable sadness in his voice, and a little bit of grievance and pain that was hard to detect.

"You're going to die."

Jiang Yunlou chuckled and rubbed Dongfang Bubai's cheek.

"Good brother, you only know."

……

……

The day Cheng Ying went to Mount Heng, Cheng Bi was with her.

The Hengshan sect is full of women, so Cheng Bi is just right to accompany Cheng Ying.

They handed out invitations, packed a few clothes and went up the mountain. In the next few days, they will stay in Hengshan for a while, and when they have lived enough, Chengbi will take Cheng Ying back to Heimuya.

Before leaving, Chengbi secretly found Jiang Yunlou and bowed to him solemnly.

"My lord, I only hope... I only hope that I can serve you again in my lifetime. After you have seen all the mountains and rivers here, you must go back to Heimuya."

It was like saying a final goodbye.

Jiang Yunlou smiled and helped her up: "What nonsense are you talking about, don't let your leader hear it, or I should scold you."

There was always a relaxed smile in his tone: "I'm fine, don't worry."

But turning his head, he began to think about the next itinerary.

He knew very well that the place he was going to visit next might be the last scenery in his life.

Jiang Yunlou's original plan was very good. First, he would go to Mount Hua to see Linghu Chong, then he would go to see the famous Fuwei Escort Bureau in the rivers and lakes, and finally he would go to the capital city to see the imperial city of this dynasty.

Now it is a little powerless.

The cold in his body could no longer be suppressed, and there was very little internal energy left to mobilize. Jiang Yunlou knew better than anyone else what his current body was like.

He thought about it, and finally said to Dongfang Bubai: "Dongfang, you choose one."

He wanted to finally do something for Dongfang Invincible.

"Choose a place you want to go, I will accompany you."

Dongfang Bubai raised his head when he heard the words, holding a letter from nowhere in his hand, and nodded slowly.

After that, they were on their way.

A carriage, two taciturn divine disciples, and two horses, one black and one white, followed the carriage.

Jiang Yunlou didn't ask about the destination, where Dongfang Bubai was going, he just went to see the scenery and eat the food.Dongfang Bubai no longer cared about what he ate or drank, the candied haws sold on the roadside, the roast duck at the local restaurant, the old daughter Hong... as long as it was what Jiang Yunlou wanted, he would let people buy it, even in Jiang Yunlou. When Lou stopped taking the medicine, he didn't say anything.

This journey was very leisurely, from spring to summer, and before I knew it, it was the season to pick lotus again.

When Jiang Yunlou saw a group of girls picking lotus in the lake, he realized belatedly that he had been to this place before.

Passing through the woods is the long-abandoned Lu family mansion.

The home of Cheng Ying and Lu Wushuang.

He got out of the carriage and found that the Lu family mansion, which was dilapidated when he left last year, is now cleaned up, the bloody handprints on the wall are gone, a new layer of paint has been applied, and the dilapidated wooden door has been replaced with a new one. The mahogany door, the yard is full of peonies, and the flowers are colorful, exquisite and beautiful, comparable to their house on the black wood cliff.

The girls in yellow shirts pushed open the door and welcomed them in with a smile.

Jiang Yunlou walked into the brand-new hall and asked in surprise, "When did this get done?"

Dongfang Bubai led him, walked to a chair and sat down, then said: "When I left last year, I asked someone to clean up this place."

He added: "When Cheng Ying grows up, Sang Sanniang will naturally return this house to them."

Jiang Yunlou asked curiously, "Then what are we doing here?"

He never thought that the place Dongfang Bubai wanted to come to would be here.

Dongfang Bubai looked at him with complicated eyes, "You once said that you came to Jinchao from here, and dreamed that your old friend entrusted you with a dream, asking you to return here to find the way back to Tang Dynasty."

Jiang Yunlou smiled: "I have been back, there is no way back here at all."

He felt that Dongfang Bubai was really tormented by him. Back then, he was a person who dismissed "Tuomeng", but now he personally brought him back here, looking for a way back to Tang Dynasty.

Dongfang Bubai's expression became even weirder, he seemed to want to smile at him, but the smile didn't really show.

The man in red stood up from the chair, turned around twice with a sullen face, and then stood in front of the window with his back to Jiang Yunlou.

His fingers tapped on the window sill unconsciously, and his whole person looked a little gloomy.

Jiang Yunlou knew Dongfang Bubai very well now, and he could not help restraining the smile on his face because he tasted panic from Dongfang Bubai's series of behaviors.

Silence spread between the two.

After a long time, Dongfang Bubai was the first to speak: "Changsheng, I actually..."

"East."

Jiang Yunlou interrupted him with a calm tone.

"I do not want to hear."
