Mrs. Fox is too serious!

Jiang Xundao wandered aimlessly for a while, and when she saw a road ahead, she walked forward. After a while, she lost her way. When she finally regained her senses and raised her head, she found herself standing in a completely unfamiliar place. place. .

And in front of her, there was a pavilion built along the water, with countless corridors criss-crossing and criss-crossing on the water, like a maze on the water, with no end in sight at a glance.

The lake is full of green lotus leaves, and the buds supported by the rhizomes are graceful, and the pink petals can be vaguely seen hiding in it shyly and timidly.

It is already the flowering period, and it is estimated that after a few more days of brewing, it will not be long before you can see the pink lotus blooming all over the lake, and the red and white blooming flowers are swaying in the breeze.

No wonder everyone says that Penglai is a fairyland. The island does not seem to follow the four seasons. Whether it is lotus, osmanthus, peach, peonies, or even the plum blossoms seen yesterday, they are all ready to bloom.

Jiang Xundao looked around, but there was no one around, as if no one had appeared, she looked again, and walked up to the pavilions on the water in front of her, curiously.

Just when she took the first step on the corridor, the air in front of her eyes was like a disturbed lake, with a layer of water waves, and then the scene in front of her eyes suddenly changed slightly.

When she was looking outside just now, she clearly saw an empty lake pavilion in the center of the lake, but she just looked down at the road, and when she looked up again,

The pavilion in the middle of the lake is gone, replaced by a pavilion in the center of the lake, the pavilion is like a standing pagoda, with seven floors in total, and a string of silver wind chimes is hung on the eaves of each floor. The wind chime swayed gently, and the crisp and pleasant ringing sounded in my ears. It didn't feel boring, but it made people feel at ease.

The vermilion lacquered pillars and carved beams depict lifelike unicorns and flying dragons, which are magnificent and simple. The surrounding buildings on the first floor are covered by a layer of white gauze, which also dances lightly in the air with the breeze.

The red glow in the distance slanted down and sprinkled on the building, and there was a layer of hazy white mist rising from the lake around it, lining the building like a jade tower in a fairyland.

Jiang Xundao froze for a moment, feeling that she was dazzled. She lowered her head and rubbed her eyes. When she looked up again, the building still stood quietly in the middle of the lake.

She immediately turned her head and wanted to leave, there must be people living in that building, it would be rude for her to wander here, how could she break in again.

But as soon as she turned around, there was a sudden "clang" sound from the building behind her, as if someone was plucking the strings of a piano. The dull sound made Jiang Xundao's heart tremble.

She turned around and quickened her pace, wanting to leave, but the body of the piano behind her rang slowly, and the low and deep sound of the piano was gentle and lingering at times, gentle and soothing like a breeze blowing on her face, and at other times stirring people's hearts like a waterfall pouring down.

Jiang Xundao turned around unconsciously, looked at the building in the middle of the lake that was shrouded in mist under the dim sunlight, and walked over step by step.

The sound of the piano seemed to be able to magnify the emotions in the bottom of the heart without limit. For example, Jiang Xundao's curiosity now made her know that it was too rude to rush over, but she still couldn't control herself and walked over. .

Walking all the way to the building, Jiang Xundao looked up, and saw white gauze fluttering in the air, and she could vaguely see a woman in white sitting in the building, barefoot and cross-legged in front of a guqin.

Jiang Xundao couldn't see the woman's face clearly, but only saw the slender and slender fingertips as light as scallions caressing the strings, the flowing clouds and water flowing smoothly, the wrists that were inadvertently exposed, and the skin as white as cream.

As Jiang Xundao approaches, the sound of the piano tends to be softer, like the gurgling water of a stream and the warm sun shining in winter.

Jiang Xundao took two steps closer, staring straight at the woman in front of him who couldn't see her face clearly, but before crossing the threshold, he suddenly fell to the ground, groaned, and just fell into a deep sleep up.

The sound of the zither stopped suddenly, but the woman's face was still hidden behind the veil. Beside the qin was a small gilded incense burner the size of a palm. Inside was a stick of purple slender incense, and the cold fragrance like plum blossoms wafted to the nostrils.

The woman stood up and walked slowly to Jiang Xundao's side. She squatted down and stretched out her hand, her white fingertips trembling gently caressed Jiang Xundao's cheek.

It was just a light touch and then retracted, and then there was no movement, just looking at Jiang Xundao motionlessly.

After a long time, a faint sigh sounded in the building.

Jiang Xundao felt as if she fell asleep. When she woke up, it was already dark. She shook her head and woke up suddenly. Then, she looked around. Where was the promenade in the lake that she saw before she fell asleep? There was also that building, which was obviously just a small secluded garden, and she was leaning on the stone table and falling asleep.

The lantern on the side of the road illuminated the somewhat dim path, and Jiang Xundao thought about it, but he couldn't figure out whether he really saw the building in the lake, saw the woman in white playing the piano, or all this was just A dream she had, a plausible dream she had when she walked to the side of the road and lay down sleepy.

Somewhat flustered, she shook her sword barrel and called out to Bai Taki a few times. Even if she was dreaming, the sword spirit couldn't also dream. If she really arrived at the building in the lake, then Bai Taki should know.

But Bai Taki, who had disappeared for a long time, couldn't scream anymore, she let her shake the sword barrel, even took out the sword and poked the golden pearl in the dragon's mouth, but Bai Taki didn't appear, and Jiang Xundao couldn't help it. I had no choice but to give up with my mind full of doubts.

She was returning along the road, and she met a disciple of Tianqin Gate on the way and asked for directions.

When she walked out of the mansion, she happened to meet Lan Yiyou who was walking back with Yin Li. When Jiang Xundao saw Lan Yiyou, his eyes lit up and he stopped, but Yin Li didn't seem to see her. Passing by with a blank expression on his chin, he walked in first.

Lan Yiyou didn't go in with her, she looked at Jiang Xundao lightly with raised eyebrows, saw that she was in a daze, and was about to say something, but when she saw someone coming from the mansion, she stretched out her hand to hold Jiang Xundao Pulled aside, looking at her with cold eyes seemed to be exploring something.

She opened her lips and asked softly.

"It's so late, why are you still hanging out alone?"

After being ridiculed by Liu Wen today, Jiang Xundao's expression was already depressed, and he had another specious dream. At this time, he felt empty in his heart, and he felt wronged when he saw Lan Yiyou.

She lowered her head and didn't know what to say, but she held the sword barrel at her waist a little awkwardly, and was a little incoherent.

"I...I don't know, anyway, I don't know anyone except Senior Sister Mu Shang and Senior Sister Lan."

Lan Yiyou's narrow and bright eyes seemed to contain a pool of clear spring water. They were bright and moving. Under the faint yellow candlelight, they were warmed a bit. She seemed to have seen through Jiang Xundao's thoughts and knew that she was determined to What kind of grievance was hit.

She can't say anything to comfort others, and she can't say it, but she has been entrusted by Bai Taki after several life-and-death encounters, so she naturally takes care of Jiang Xundao and subconsciously observes her words and deeds.

Jiang Xundao lowered his head and didn't speak any more. Lan Yiyou stood in front of her for a while before opening his mouth.

"There are mixed fish and dragons here, don't wander around when it's too late, I'll take you back."

Although Jiang Xundao didn't want to complain, he also didn't want to be alone and continue to think about it. Lan Yiyou said that he would send her back, so he would accompany her for a while, so she nodded quickly.

The two walked side by side on the small road, passing people by from time to time, although there were so many people that they couldn't say much, but Jiang Xundao felt that Lan Yiyou was with her, and she felt relieved a lot, and didn't think about those troublesome things anymore .

When they came to a fork in the road, Jiang Xundao and Lan Yiyou walked towards the secluded path at the same time. Although they took some detours, there were far fewer people passing by.

Lan Yiyou has already changed into Fenghuagu's Taoist robe, tied her hair with a jade-white Taoist crown, holds a long sword in her hand, and has a flowing skirt. The cinnabar that is about to drip looks like a fairy outside the world.

The two walked for a while, Lan Yiyou saw that Jiang Xundao still kept his head down and said nothing, so he asked softly.

"Are you thinking about something again?"

Jiang Xundao shook his head, raised his head to look at Lan Yiyou with a flickering smile and said with a smile.

"No, I just think it would be great if I also have brothers and sisters from the same school."

Lan Yiyou raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and already had the answer in his heart.

"Did Qing Yunmen bully you?"

Jiang Xundao nodded subconsciously, then shook his head in a panic, and hastily denied.

"No, they didn't bully me, they treated me very well."

It’s just that she didn’t say a word in the end, but kept it in her heart, Senior Sister Mu Shang and Chang Ling treated her very well, except, except Liu Wen, who didn’t like her very much and didn’t want to talk to her.. ...

Lan Yiyou had long felt that Jiang Xundao's thoughts seemed to be written on his face, so he naturally didn't take her prevarication seriously, so he just glanced at her lightly and said.

"There is no perfect person in this world. Some people like it and others hate it. You have been practicing alone for so long. Have you started worrying about such mundane things since you entered the world?"

Jiang Xundao was taken aback for a moment, and his steps slowed down.

Lan Yiyou took two steps forward, stopped when she saw that she was not following, and turned to look at Jiang Xundao.

"It's a blessing to meet a sincere friend, even if there is only one. You lose your soul because of those irrelevant others waiting for sarcastic remarks. You can't even pass the test of not being afraid of his words. How will you prove your way in the future."

Lan Yiyou's words were like enlightenment, and Jiang Xundao, who was depressed, was relieved in a few words. She stared blankly at the stones under her feet, and suddenly burst out laughing.

If the master didn't ask her to go down the mountain to practice, she still doesn't know that she is not cultivated enough, her mind is not strong, and she is easily influenced by other people's words, and she almost blames herself and forgets the reason why she went down the mountain in the first place.

Now that Lan Yiyou reminded her a few words, she suddenly became enlightened.

She raised her head and swept away the gloomy color just now, full of joy and cheerful smile, she walked to Lan Yiyou's side in three steps and two steps, couldn't hold back the smile on her lips and turned her head to look at Lan Yiyou, smiling road.

"Senior Sister Lan, if I didn't already have a master, I would have worshiped you as my teacher."

Seeing that Jiang Xundao swept away his gloom and regained his usual vitality, Lan Yiyou twitched his lips and made a rare joke.

"I don't mind you having two masters."

Jiang Xundao was taken aback for a moment, she didn't see the faint smile on Lan Yiyou's lips, she just thought she was just joking, but Lan Yiyou looked very serious, which made her a little bit embarrassed .

She pursed her lips, and made a serious embarrassment.

"If...if I want to worship you as my teacher, then what will my master do, the old man, he is only my disciple."

After finally being interested in making a joke, who knew that Jiang Xundao took it seriously, Lan Yiyou shook his head lightly, only feeling annoyed and funny, so he could only say helplessly.

"You can't hear the joke with you, let's go, I will send you back first."

Jiang Xundao heaved a sigh of relief, she quickly caught up with Lan Yiyou, and walked side by side with her with a soft snort.

"I didn't know that Senior Sister Lan would still make fun of me."

Lan Yiyou looked forward and the corners of her lips were slightly raised. She slowed down and smelled the fragrance of bamboo leaves in the air.

"Why do you need to justify, you are clearly stupid."

Jiang Xundao clenched his hands into fists, raised his hands in dissatisfaction, and yelled in protest.

"Senior Sister Lan!"

"To shut up."

"Oh."
