See you, the time when a flower blooms

The three of Zhang Qishan chased out of the mine, only to find that it was already dark outside.There is not a single star in the sky, but a crescent moon sprinkles silver light, quietly reflecting the shadows of the three people under their feet.The mines in the distance were shrouded in mist, and the outlines of the mountain shadows were blurred, making them look darker and grayer.Qiongqi and the giant beast had disappeared without a trace.

According to the time and the surrounding environment, Zhang Qishan concluded that this world is an illusion created by meteorite copper.The three of them returned to Changsha City from the mine. There were pedestrians in the city with dull eyes and slow movements, and the quiet streets like an empty city. The situation was even more strange.The three immediately decided to go home and have a look.

When Zhang Qishan walked to the door of the house, he saw the red figure who had been anxiously in his heart.

She was sitting on the ground, leaning against the cold black iron door, with her head slightly lowered to one side, as if she was asleep. The white moonlight shone on her quiet face, and the whole world slowed down its breathing.The bright red skirt fell to the ground, and she was like a gorgeous flower blooming there.

Zhang Qishan walked over, squatted down on one knee in front of her, and carefully looked at her sleeping face without saying a word.The expression on his face became extremely gentle, and the corners of his lips curved gently.He stretched out his right index finger, and gently stroked the smooth skin of her cheek with the back of his finger with infinite nostalgia.

Love is really the most wonderful thing in the world, it affects and controls a person's emotions so violently.

Suddenly a low roar came from his ear, Zhang Qishan turned his head, and saw the Qiongqi beast in the shadows that almost merged with the night.It raised its head, and its bright black animal eyes stared at Zhang Qishan's hand on Qiongqi's face in warning.

Zhang Qishan put his fingers to the corners of his lips, and made a gesture of silencing Qiong Qi Beast. A deep roar rolled out of the giant beast's throat, and then lay down on the ground again, ignoring him.

Zhang Qishan leaned over, wrapped one hand around her shoulders, and put the other through the bend of her legs, lifting her up from the ground.Poor Qi immediately leaned into his arms obediently, with her forehead against one of his cheeks, he felt the soft fragrance of her skin, like flower petals falling down on his face.

He pushed open the black gate and walked through the courtyard under the moonlight. The fountain in the center of the courtyard was still flowing, and the small sound of dripping water floated in the quiet night, like a series of melodious piano sounds.

Then the pleasant sound of the piano was interrupted by a rush of footsteps.Qi Tiezui ran over panting. After returning to his fortune-telling booth, he found more doubts about this fantasy world, so he immediately ran to Zhang's mansion, preparing to find Qiongqi as soon as possible with Zhang Qishan, and leave this strange place.Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he saw that Zhang Qishan had already found Qiongqi.

"Buddha," Qi Tiezui ran to Zhang Qishan, glanced at Qiongqi in his arms, "You found Qiongqi, what happened to her?"

"He's fine, just fell asleep."

"It's fine." Qi Tiezui breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's get out of here quickly. I went home just now and found that there is really a big problem with this place. We'd better leave as soon as possible."

Zhang Qishan nodded, raised his chin, and motioned him to look at the crescent moon hanging in the sky.In the deep purple night sky, a waning moon hangs silently, as if someone accidentally tore open a corner of the big black curtain, revealing the white light hidden behind.

Qi Tiezui immediately realized: "Buddha, you also discovered it. I remember very clearly that when we went to the tomb, it was at the beginning of the month, and the sky should have been the first quarter moon, but now, it has become the last quarter moon." Qi Tiezui Looking at the cold and bright moonlight, "This is impossible! Unless we go in and out and stay in the tomb for half a month!"

Zhang Qishan looked down at Qiongqi, he deliberately lowered his voice when talking with Qi Tiezui, she was in a deep sleep.He looked away from her face, and said to Qi Tiezui: "Go find Adjutant Zhang, and when Qiongqi wakes up, we will leave here immediately."

Qiongqi woke up quickly, but there was another problem for them to leave the illusion—at first, they came here through the huge meteorite in the cave, but the meteorite had been shattered when Qiongqi broke through the seal.It is equivalent to indirectly destroying the key to open this world.

But no matter what, if you want to leave here, you must pass through the ancient tomb, and the four people and one beast still return to the meteorite platform.To everyone's surprise, the meteorite that was supposed to shatter all over the place was still standing there safe and sound—the only difference was that there was no original Poong Qi Beast statue on the base supporting it.

"This...how did this happen?" Qi Tiezui opened his eyes wide, and carefully stretched out a hand to touch the miraculously restored meteorite, "Buddha, this meteorite is also created by illusion, right?"

Zhang Qishan glanced at the meteorite, which was as high as a stone tower and said, "If the whole world is an illusion created by meteorite copper, then it's not surprising that this place is also fake."

"Then, if they are all fake, how do we know that we will return to the original real world after passing through this meteoric copper?" Qi Tiezui asked worriedly.

The corner of Zhang Qishan's lips curled into a slightly conceited smile: "You'll know if you try it."

Qi Tiezui:  …

The only problem is——Zhang Qishan looked down at the giant beast standing beside Qiongqi like the most dedicated guard, its wings were folded on its back, and it was hard to tell if you didn't look carefully, but even if it was just A fierce tiger appearing rashly in Changsha City may cause commotion.

Qi Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang also followed his line of sight.

"Lord Buddha, it...does it really want to go out with us?" Qi Tiezui asked tremblingly.

Qiongqi Beast's response was - a roar.

Qiongqi stretched out his hand and stroked the soft fur on its neck as if praising it.

One man and one beast apparently felt that this was an undisputed issue.

Zhang Qishan frowned even tighter than Qi Tiezui, he looked at Qiongqi, Qiongqi withdrew his hand from the warm neck of the giant beast, and met his bright black eyes.

Zhang Qishan finally compromised, took her hand and said "Let's go".The two walked forward first, followed by the beast at the same pace.

Qi Tiezui walked behind the Qiongqi beast, not daring to vent his breath, his eyes fixed on a dangling long black furry tail in front of him.Suddenly, Qi Baye was blessed to his heart—since everything in this fantasy world is fake, maybe this terrifying giant beast is also fake, and it will disappear automatically as soon as they walk out of the fantasy world!

Qi Baye relaxed, and just put a reassuring smile on his face, "Crack!" There was a crisp sound, and his cheek hurt - the tail of the arrogant beast in front swung his face...

Four people and one beast walked out of the ancient tomb, but they didn't see Lu Jianxun, but Xie Jiuye was waiting at the entrance of the cave.It was still early, and although the morning sun was bright and dazzling, it did not give much warmth to the body.The continuous mines in the distance are clearly outlined under the blue sky in autumn, and the faint morning glow reflects the entire foothills into soft orange.

Xie Jiuye greeted him, and said quickly but calmly and orderly: "You guys have finally come out. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. I just want to tie Lu Jianxun for a while. Let's leave here immediately."

Zhang Qishan asked, "How long have we been in the tomb?"

Xie Jiu took out his pocket watch and looked at the time: "It's a quarter past nine in the morning, and you have been in the mine for a day and a night."

Zhang Qishan's eyes scanned the entrance of the mine quietly, and saw that the cleared mine tunnel under his feet had traces of the previous bombing.

"What's the current situation in Changsha City? I'm afraid it's even more inappropriate for us to appear in the city now..."

Only then did Xie Jiuye see the giant black beast following Qiongqi, and the other people around also saw it, and backed away in horror.Qiongqi shook its head irritably, and Qiongqi immediately smoothed its hair comfortingly.Zhang Qishan has not let go of Qiongqi's hand since he walked out of the ancient tomb. He is a little worried that this person and beast will fly away after being unhappy.

Although Xie Jiuye didn't lose his composure like the others, he also looked shocked.

"This is!……"

"I can't explain this matter clearly at the moment," Zhang Qishan shook his head and interrupted Master Jiu's question, "In short, this mine is very dangerous and cannot be kept."

Xie Jiuye, who has always had a clear mind, immediately understood the meaning of his words: "Does the Buddha mean to blow up the entire mine?"

Zhang Qishan nodded: "Although the movement is a bit louder, this is the only way to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Although Qiongqi didn't know what they were talking about, but now she was unconscious and didn't feel bored, so she could stand quietly all the time.The Qiongqi Beast next to him didn't agree, and a suppressed roar started to roll out of his throat, and his front hooves kept pawing the ground, and the dust kicked up covered Tiezui and Adjutant Zhang's entire body and face.

Zhang Qishan glanced sideways, and said to Xie Jiuye: "It is inconvenient for us to enter the city now. Besides, if the mine is bombed, many people may be even more unable to sit still. The wind in Changsha City will only become tighter. I will let Lao Ba and the adjutant follow along." You go back, please ask Master Jiu to prepare two carriages, and we will leave for Baiqiao village immediately."

It is true that it is inconvenient to enter the city.It is true that Changsha city is tight.But this is not the reason why Master Zhang rushed to Baiqiao village so eagerly - he tightened the slender hand in his palm, and then immediately let go.It's like hiding a soft petal, with imperceptible care.

Qiongqi didn't know where Baiqiao Village was, and he didn't care too much.Qiongqi only cares about where she goes, and it will go there.So everyone has no opinion on the itinerary.

The two carriages Xie Jiuye prepared were ordinary in appearance, but the interior was covered with comfortable cushions, and tea, food and cakes needed for the road were also prepared, which were very practical and comprehensive.It's just that all these practical and thoughtful things are for ordinary people, and they are not attractive to Qiongqi. Compared with riding in a carriage, she is obviously more willing to sit on the back of Qiongqi beast.

Zhang Qishan definitely disagreed.At a corner of the remote forest path outside the city, two carriages stopped by the roadside one after the other.The trees on both sides are growing peacefully, showing a bit of dormant silence in the coolness of late autumn.

Zhang Qishan felt a little headache, the unconscious Qiongqi seemed to be quieter and more docile, but in fact there was no external force to restrain him.Especially after the appearance of this Qiong Qi beast, his already extremely thin right to speak has been challenged even more.Master Zhang Dafo never imagined that he would compete with a little beast one day.

Slightly pondering, Zhang Qishan leaned over and took out an orange from the carriage, took Qiongqi's hand and placed it in her palm.

Qiongqi tilted his head suspiciously, blinked at him for a while, then turned around, raised his hand, and threw the orange in the direction of Qiongqi Beast.The Qiongqi Beast roared happily, its huge body jumped up nimbly, opened its mouth, and accurately caught the small orange in midair.

Then one man and one beast stood still again, and two pairs of big, round and bright eyes eagerly looked back at him.

Zhang Qishan:  …

Qi Tiezui burst out laughing.

Seeing Grand Buddha Zhang stroking his forehead helplessly, Eighth Master Qi stepped forward righteously, patted his chest and said, "Okay, Master Buddha, leave it to Lao Ba!"

Zhang Qishan narrowed his eyes and looked at Qi Tiezui suspiciously.I saw Ba Ye Qi open the curtain of the carriage, brought out the whole plate of oranges, took one in his hand, waved it in front of the Qiongqi beast, and said in his mouth: "Come on, come on, little Qiongqi beast, all of them are oranges!" Yours." Witnessing Qiongqi Beast's canine-like behavior just now, Ba Ye Qi relaxed his vigilance, and automatically and consciously added the word "small" before Qiongqi Beast's title.

But faced with the food temptation of Qi Tie Zui, Qiong Qi raised its eyelids lazily, then turned around proudly, pointing its butt at the human.The tail hanging behind flicked, as if to say - stupid mortal.Then it spread its wings and circled upwards twice.

Of course, it will not be far away from Qiongqi, but as the only sober beast here, it knows that before the illusion of Baiqiao village unfolds, everyone will fall into a deep sleep without knowing it.

Illusions are born of obsession.However, the obsession is like an abyss. This time, who once jumped without hesitation, even if he plunged into the abyss, he never looked back?

The author has something to say:

The update time is too long, and I have lost a lot of enthusiasm for Buddha. I always feel wrong after writing these chapters.Don't you think so, that's why you are so indifferent. . . . (ノへ￣、)......
