After passing through the book, the devil wants to kill me

Lou Yun was holding the white crane lantern and was about to put it back on the booth when a faint voice suddenly came from beside him:

"Don't you take it?"

"Ah?" Lou Yun turned his head, Mozun walked beside him and looked at the lantern.

"Take it if you like it." Mozun said again, before he could respond, he casually threw a spirit stone to the peddler.The peddler stared wide-eyed, caught the high-grade spirit stone that was enough to buy all his lanterns, and thanked him repeatedly.

Lou Yun: "..."

OK, then take it.

The three walked on the street for a while, and it was still a long time before dark.

After turning a corner, a quaint tea house appeared in front of you.Ji Qingwen put away the folding fan, pointed at the distance, and said:

"I've been out for a while, everyone is thirsty, why don't we go to the teahouse in front?"

Lou Yun nodded, Mozun has always had no objections.Then he walked into the teahouse.

There are many people on the street, and there are no empty seats in the teahouse.Ji Qingwen turned more than half a circle, and finally found a table in the corner.

As soon as the three of them sat down, there was a burst of applause in front of them.

Looking for the reputation, there are many people around the stage in the lobby, and several people on the stage are dressed as actors, as if they are preparing to perform something.

Lou Yun suddenly became interested, patted the shoulder of a nearby person lightly, and asked:

"Excuse me, is there a performance on stage?"

The man said: "It's the practice of the Lantern Festival every year, that story has been widely circulated. I don't know if there are any new tricks this year hahaha."

Just as he was talking, the performance on the stage had already started.

There are two people with oil paint on their faces, one in white and the other in gray, turning out from behind the scenes.

Lou Yun looked at the stage for a while, and the two should be the master-student pair in the story.The one in white is the master, and the one in gray is the apprentice.All kinds of tricks on the stage swayed one after another, and the story has entered the stage where the master and apprentice work together to calm the chaos.

"It seems that the people here really like this legend," Ji Qingwen turned around and said with a smile, "Although it's just a story, all the details are well-made."

"Huh? How do you say it?" Lou Yun asked.

Ji Qingwen supported his chin with the tip of his fan, and said, "It's really rare that the two protagonists have a unified statement about their behavior and even their clothing preferences."

That being said, it seems so.Lou Yun looked at Mozun who hadn't spoken since he sat down, and asked, "What do you think?"

Mozun held the teacup in his hand, glanced at the table, and said indifferently: "It's just a story, and those who have good things can make it more detailed."

Lou Yun smiled, drank half a cup of tea, and continued to look at the stage.

It's only a few minutes of chatting off stage, but it's been a hundred years on stage.

In the story, the apprentice died accidentally during the war, and the people in white held lanterns, lit up one by one, and lifted off into the sky.

The play has come to an end, and the performance is very emotional.Many women here secretly picked up handkerchiefs and wiped away the tears from their eyes.For a while, there was a sniffing sound from time to time in the lobby.

Not long after leaving the stage, a few festive characters came up again, as if they were performing other amusing scenes.

Lou Yun averted his eyes in a lack of interest, and was no longer in the stands.

The three of them sat for a while, and then went out to wander around the teahouse.Time passed by, and finally it was night.

Many people gathered by the river, and one after another people began to put lanterns.Some lanterns are lifted into the air, and some float away along the river.

In the dark night, little lights gradually filled the sight, and the lanterns on the water surface and the sky intertwined, like the whole piece of starlight pouring out.

Lou Yun stood in the distance, looking at the scenery, he couldn't help being a little crazy.

Just as he was in a trance, Ji Qingwen's expression turned serious, and he squinted to look out of the crowd, as if he had discovered something.

"Junior Brother Lou, Brother Zhao, you guys go ahead and play, I'm leaving early, sorry." After saying that, he turned around and blinked again, and the person disappeared.

While Lou Yun was puzzled, the person who had been silent behind him came to his side and looked down at him.

"Aren't you going to let go?"

Lou Yun looked down at the lantern in his hand and said with a smile, "Okay."

Many enthusiastic people by the river provided pens and inks for those who came to put the lanterns to write their wishes and pray for blessings.

Lou Yun held a pen in his hand, looked at the white crane lantern, thought for a while, and wrote a few words on it.

"Who is the blessing for?" Mozun asked softly.

The night was deep, and the reflection of the lanterns on the water surface cast on Lou Yun's body, making the shadows vague and indistinct.The long eyelashes cast light shadows in the ambient light.

Lou Yun wrote very carefully and carefully.It seems that the most important thing in this life is the words in your hand.

After he finished writing, he carefully lit the lamp, placed it gently on the river surface, and stared at the white crane lantern for a moment, with a focused and gentle expression, as if he was looking at someone through the lantern.

After a while, he slowly replied, "What do you think?"

--What do you think?

Mozun stood aside, his palms tightened, his Adam's apple moved up and down, but he still didn't speak after all.

The white crane lanterns swayed along the river, drifting far away, and soon mixed with many lanterns, they were almost out of sight.

Lou Yun looked in Piaoyuan's direction, and heard Mozun ask: "Won't you light one for yourself?"

He raised his head and smiled at Mozun: "Okay, what about you?"

"Me?" Mozun was stunned for a moment.

"That's right, why don't you order one for yourself? Also, don't you have an apprentice, do you want to order one for him?"

Mozun looked at Lou Yun, his heart seemed to be brushed by something, causing it to tremble, and when he spoke again, his voice softened unconsciously:

"Okay, order all."

Mozun went to pick out two lanterns nearby, and looked carefully, one was painted with koi carps, and the other was painted with birds.

He thought for a moment, picked up a pen and quickly finished writing, and put the lantern into the river.

Lou Yun ordered himself a cup with white doves on it, thought for a while, wrote down the words "everything goes well" and let it go.

The two stood by the river, each with their own minds, silently watching the lantern go away.

As the night darkened, the surrounding crowd gradually dispersed, and the atmosphere became quiet.

Lou Yun turned his head and said to Demon Venerable: "It's getting late, let's go back. Tomorrow I'm going back to Xianmen. You—"

He paused for a second, organized his sentence, and continued: "Do you still need to charge some interest?"

The air was quiet for a moment, Mozun stretched out his hand, smoothed the ends of his hair on his shoulders, and said: "Forget it, you are tired today, next time."

Lou Yun nodded, and the two went back to the inn without talking.

Back in the room, I tidied up for a while and then lay down on the bed.Lou Yun closed his eyes, tossing and turning so sleepy, but still unable to fall asleep.

Tomorrow I will go back to Zongmen.

Back to the sect, Qin Xinyue had to go back with her.

When Qin Xinyue goes back, she will be able to meet Qi Chao.At that time, the two will be able to fall in love with each other as the author set, and soon become a Taoist couple that will be envied by everyone in the world.

When Qi Chao has a Taoist companion, presumably a lot of attention will be on her.At that time, I will not pay much attention to myself...

Will I be ignored?

If it's been a long time, will you not remember having such an apprentice?

……

Lou Yun's heart seemed to be clogged with something, his heart was heavy, and he even felt that his breathing was not smooth.

He turned from side to side, tried to fall asleep for a few seconds, gave up, opened his eyes and sat up.

Forget it, don't sleep.

Lou Yun raised his eyes and looked at the bright moon that had climbed into the sky outside the window, holding his Na ring in his hand.

He rubbed his fingertips twice, and finally couldn't help opening the ring, and took out something from it.Holding that thing in his hand, he looked at it in the cold moonlight for a while, and he seemed to feel better.

Fortunately, it stayed at that time.Maybe only you will accompany me in the future.

Mozun sat on the bed, closed his eyes and settled down.

In the 700 years since he stepped into the path of cultivating immortals, he has never been so disturbed like these few days.

There is a figure that can always easily attract his attention, and its influence on him is getting bigger and bigger, with a faint tendency to go out of control.

This is not a good sign.

He tried his best to concentrate his mind and entered the state of concentration, but his consciousness drifted away uncontrollably, and he perceived some things that were not needed for concentration.

He knew someone was still asleep.

He knew someone got up and went out.

He knew that someone had been away for a long time, but hadn't come back yet.

Mozun waited patiently for a long time, but still couldn't perceive the desired information.

The night was dark and the surroundings were silent.In the darkness, a pair of long and narrow eyes slowly opened, and a sigh scattered into the air.

He got up and went out, followed his perception through a bluestone path, and turned into the woods behind the inn.Between the trees, there is an open space with a stone table in the middle.

At this moment someone was sitting at the stone table, leaning over it.The man was bathed in the light moonlight, and was dressed in silver-white clothes, which didn't fit him well.

There is a jug of wine and a crooked wine glass on the stone table.The man rested his head on his arm, his face was flushed, and his eyes were blurred and watery.

The man opened his lips lightly, and called two words in a soft tone.

"Master."
