He is emotional
Mo Xue looked at Cao Feichen who was still sitting on the stool and asked, "Why don't you run away?"
Cao Feichen said calmly, "It covers the entire Shuzhong area. Where can I escape to? Besides," he looked at the rain outside, a sneer on his face, "it's a monster that eats sincerity."
The sky was getting closer and closer, dark clouds covered the roof of the inn, and countless vengeful ghosts came screaming.
Mo Xie said to Ruan Yi, "Stay away."
Ruan Yi quickly rushed back, hid behind the counter, and stuck his head out to look.
Cao Feichen swallowed his saliva. The wind slammed against the door, making it clang. He shouted, "Red Mountain Monster, I am a heartless person. You can't do anything to me!"
A loud thunder sounded, and a black vengeful ghost broke through the clouds like lightning, flew into the door and quickly swept Cao Feichen away.
In the air, resentful ghosts were circling around Cao Feichen, wrapping and drowning him layer by layer. Cao Feichen suddenly realized that something was wrong and stretched out his hands desperately.
“Save…save me.”
However, it was too late. Countless melancholy souls penetrated into his body, and the true love and resentment over the past hundred years rushed into his mind in an instant, almost tearing his heart and body apart.
The vengeful ghost left like pieces of paper and flew into the sky. Cao Feichen fell down like a piece of paper. He hit the ground, staring with his eyes out of focus, tears just flowing.
Bai Linchuan walked out the door, "He's crazy..."
Ruan Yi was terrified. The Red Mountain Demon was so powerful that it could destroy a person so easily.
"This monster is quite picky about food. It only destroyed his mind."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came to his ears. Ruan Yi was startled. When he turned around, Mo Xue was squatting beside him.
The two of them hid behind the counter. Ruan Yi asked, "Why are you here?"
Mo Xie smiled and said, "This little demon is not worthy of my attack. Let's just watch the show."
Ruan Yi looked outside worriedly, but... the Red Mountain Demon specializes in killing lovers, and he frowned in worry.
The dark clouds in the sky connected with the ground, and suddenly a hurricane rolled up, just like a dragon sucking water, connecting the sky and the earth, and Chishui Lake reappeared in Shu.
The hurricane came quickly and Bai Linchuan's figure quickly disappeared in it.
Ruan Yi was suddenly startled, but seeing that Mo Xue was still calm, he could only breathe a sigh of relief and wait quietly.
The wind howled, the clouds whistled, Bai Linchuan was in the center of the tornado, the howling wind spun rapidly, but the huge wind could not shake him at all.
"Interesting..." A low growl came on the wind.
Bai Linchuan's veil was blown away, and black water droplets melted with resentment kept approaching him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "It's interesting."
When the rolling water droplets were about to reach the corner of his clothes, he raised his hands and the water droplets seemed to stop for a moment, half-suspended in the air.
White light condensed from his palm, and with a slight push, he brought in a ray of spiritual light from the sky, which directly shattered the entire thick cloud and hurricane.
The hurricane dissipated, and water droplets quickly fell to the ground. Suddenly, Bai Linchuan opened his eyes abruptly and firmly grasped the demon spirit floating in the center.
The wind stopped, and the corners of Bai Linchuan's clothes fluttered and spun, slowly falling to the ground like a flower after the rain.
In the center of his hand, the demon spirit was filled with black mist, and it was still roaring and moving restlessly.
Mo Xue stepped forward and clapped his hands in approval, "Junior sister, you are so amazing! I will definitely compete with Bai Linchuan when we get back. If you had entered Lingzhong Mountain, the sect's top spot would have been handed over to someone else long ago."
As he spoke, he kept staring at the demon spirit. Wei Si said that the more powerful the demon spirit was, the more energy it could store and the more spirit stones it could be exchanged for.
Unexpectedly, Bai Linchuan suddenly clenched his ten fingers and shattered the entire demon with one palm.
Mo Xue was shocked: "How did you break it?"
Bai Linchuan said: "Dirty."
The big man hid behind and hugged the tree, witnessing everything. He realized it later and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
The clouds and fog dissipated, and the scorching sun emitted a dazzling white light. The red sun illuminated everything and quickly dried up the brick streets.
The resentful ghosts and dead spirits flew into the sky with long cries, and finally gained their freedom and ran towards the sun, then dissipated in the sunlight.
The barrier has been dispelled, and the big man quickly slipped away.
"Where is Wei Si?" Mo Xie shouted.
"I'm here." Wei Si came out from under the leaves. "I wanted to go forward to help my junior sister, but I was blown away by the wind." He smiled embarrassedly.
Bai Linchuan glanced at him and turned his head away.
Mo Xue stepped forward and inserted himself between the two of them. "Well, the barrier has dissipated, the mission is accomplished, we can leave now."
Ruan Yi walked up to them, and Mo Xie said with a smile: "Why don't you go find your Ran Niang quickly."
Ruan Yi couldn't contain his inner joy, "Are you guys going back to the sect?"
Wei Si then said, "The Qiqiao Festival seems to be coming soon."
Mo Xue rolled his eyes and raised his eyebrows.
"Master! Please stay." Before they left, He Mazi stepped forward to stop them. After seeing the earth-shattering commotion just now, he knew that these people were definitely not ordinary people.
He took the little pockmarked boy's hand and pushed him forward, "Please, Immortal, save my child."
Mo Xue squatted in front of him, wagging his fingers back and forth, but the little pockmarked boy's eyes didn't move, and then he rolled his eyes.
Mo Xie whispered, "Is this child sick or not?"
Bai Linchuan sighed slightly. "His mind is half destroyed, which is why he is sometimes stupid and sometimes normal. I'm sorry I can't do anything about it, but," he changed the subject, "Are you willing to return to the sect with us?"
He Mazi smiled and said, "Of course, of course, little pockmarked boy, kowtow to the Immortal!"
Mo Xue held up the little pockmarked boy's head and said with a smile, "From now on, you will follow me, your brother. There is no point in disliking me."
Late at night, on the bustling streets, bamboo yellow lanterns emitting honey-colored light strung across the entire street like a long falling star. People came and went in an endless stream, street vendors kept hawking their wares, and the noisy sounds boomed into my ears.
"Wow!" Mo Xue opened his mouth wide: "It's so lively here."
"Look over there, that's the most famous Yonghe River." Ruan Yi introduced.
The Yonghe River at night emits a faint blue light, reflecting the lanterns and pedestrians on both sides. Lanterns float above, drifting from afar, dotted like thousands of stars in the sky.
Ruan Yi said, "I first met Ran Niang when I was releasing the lotus lanterns."
Mo Xue's eyes were sharp, and he pointed and said, "There are notes on them."
Nguyen Yi explained: "That's the wish people made."
"Junior sister, let's go and set one off too." Mo Xie shouted.
The little pockmarked boy fell into a daze again. Mo Xue was afraid that he would get lost, so he tied him to his waistband with a rope. Fortunately, he would instinctively follow Mo Xue.
Mo Xue brought his little follower to the river. He squatted down and carefully placed the written words on the lotus leaf lantern. He patted the water, and the lotus leaf lantern floated away leisurely.
Bai Linchuan looked at Mo Xue. His eyebrows were covered with a layer of orange light, his eyes were bright with stars, and he smiled freely and arrogantly, as if nothing could trap or subdue him. He even disdained the gods.
Now, they are carefully pushing the lotus lanterns filled with wishes away.
Bai Linchuan held the pen, but the tip of the pen remained suspended in the air for too long, and a drop of ink dripped, but it could not fall any further.
After Ruan Yi placed the lotus lantern, he looked at the squatting Mo Xue and the lantern floating away, then glanced at Bai Linchuan, who was wearing a veil and kept his head down.
Ruan Yi asked, "Mo Xue, what wish did you write down?"
Mo Xie shook his head, "Of course... I won't tell you."
He looked up and saw a white jade hand pushing the lotus leaf lantern towards the water's edge.
"Junior sister, aren't you going to write?" Mo Xue saw that there was nothing on the lamp.
Bai Linchuan withdrew his hand, holding the note tightly in his hand, and replied calmly: "I don't know."
Wei Si put away the lantern and said to Ruan Yi, "I don't know what Mo Xue wrote, but I definitely know what you wrote."
Ruan Yi stared around as they walked, but they had already circled the entire street. He couldn't help but look disappointed and shook his head gently. "Perhaps, this is all God's will."
Mo Xue embraced him and said, "What's God's will? If you like something, you should go for it."
They walked out of the riverbank, and Ruan Yi frowned, "But we've been apart for so long, what if she..."
"Haven't you been apart for just a month?"
"But it feels like we've been apart for a lifetime..." Ruan Yi said sadly, "Not to mention the misunderstanding created by the Red Mountain Demon..."
Mo Xie said confidently, "Then when you meet her, just yell at her that you still love her, and the misunderstanding will be resolved."
As Mo Xue was speaking, Ruan Yi suddenly froze in place. His eyes instantly filled with tears, which burst out and flowed down his face in two lines.
Mo Ke paused, "Why, did you see her?"
Before he finished speaking, Mo Xue had already made up his mind.
On the other side of the bridge, the candlelight behind me was dimming, and in the bustling crowd, a woman stood there, also with tears already streaming down her face...
"Ran Niang!"
The two tearful people ran up to the Crane Bridge, hugged each other tightly, and cried inconsolably.
Mo Xue stood there for a long time, then suddenly turned and left.
Xiao Mazi paused and said, "Are you envious?"
Mo Xue patted his head: "Hey, you little brat!"
Ruan Yi wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve, "It's... the Red Mountain Demon..."
Ran Niang said, "I know. I was the one who spread the news about the water monster."
Bai Linchuan stepped forward and said immediately, "I didn't expect that my wife was the one who reported the case."
He Shuangran said, "I haven't had any strange dreams since I left Shu. I was very confused. Suddenly, I remembered the arguments my parents had when I was young. They were exactly the same as in my dream. I was sure there was something fishy going on."
Bai Linchuan said: "No wonder..." No wonder the Red Mountain Demon wanted to kill her at all costs.
Ruan Yi looked surprised, "You are not afraid of the monster's revenge, if it weren't for the immortal."
He Shuangran smiled, her soft eyes filled with firm love.
Ruan Yi introduced: "This is the immortal who exorcises demons, from Lingzhong Mountain."
Unexpectedly, He Shuangran nodded slowly, "Master, how are you?"
Now, it was Bai Linchuan's turn to be surprised: "Have we met before?"
He Shuangran said, "It's normal that the Immortal doesn't remember me. A month ago, the Immortal came here to exorcise demons. I wonder if you are used to this dress."
Bai Linchuan instantly realized that in order to catch the flower demon, he needed to dress up as a woman. "You specially made this dress and sold it to me."
He Shuangran said, "That's right. That's why I thought of reporting the case to Lingzhong Mountain."
Ruan Yi: "So there's this connection."
"Thank you for saving me, Immortal."
"You saved your love yourself," Bai Linchuan said, "but I... still have something I don't understand and would like to ask you a question."
He Shuangran nodded, her expression slightly serious.
Bai Linchuan hesitated and asked, "Why did I... dream when I was in... Shu?"
He Shuangran smiled broadly: "Of course the Immortal has fallen in love with someone."
A black veil shrouded Bai Linchuan, and his whole figure looked lonely and full of confusion.
"But... why?" he breathed.
He Shuangran and Ruan Yi smiled at each other.
She laughed and said, “Love is something that even gods can’t explain clearly. Sometimes, one glance is enough;
Sometimes, it’s nothing more than a few more glances, and that person will be stuck on the tip of your heart, never to be let go.”
After saying that, Bai Linchuan stood where he was without saying another word.
He Shuangran turned to look at Ruan Yi in confusion. Ruan Yi shook his head gently, held her hand and walked down the Crane Bridge together.
People were coming and going around him, but Bai Linchuan still stood on the bridge. After a long time, he let out a long sigh.
Longer than all the previous ones combined...
"Junior Sister!" A familiar voice came, and Bai Linchuan turned around in response.
Mo Xue stood under the bridge, the amber candlelight shining on his face. He smiled brilliantly, his eyes dark and shiny, and waved his arms, shouting, "What are you doing standing there? Come down quickly! Madam He wants to invite us to the restaurant!"
In the bustling restaurant, in the largest private room on the third floor, a table full of delicious food was served: salt and pepper lamb shanks, hairy crabs, and Su Yu Linglong soup...
Mo Xue murmured as he looked at the Manchu-Han banquet, "This is what we call a delicious meal. Cao Feichen is really ungrateful for trying to bribe me with that little."
start!
Mo Xie instantly stretched out his chopsticks, but he didn't expect someone to be faster than him. Mo Xie yelled, "Aren't you an idiot?!"
The little pockmarked boy said nothing, but just fought hard with him for the meat.
Wei Si jokingly said, "Little pockmarked boy, you are still young, give way to your big brother."
Mo Xie had no shame at all, his face was thick and lawless, from the blue sky to the hell, he said: "Did you hear me, I will let you brother Xie go."
The people around burst into laughter...
After eating, Bai Linchuan walked out of the box first, and He Shuangran handed him a package.
"This is?"
Bai Linchuan opened it and saw a layer of soft white veil inside. The veil was light and transparent, but it faintly shone with pearly luster, and it was impossible to see the face under the veil.
He Shuangran said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. It must be inconvenient for you to wear this black veil."
Bai Linchuan nodded with satisfaction, stretched out his hand slowly, holding a spiritual seal talisman between his fingertips.
"If you need help in the future, you can call me."
He took off the black cloth and held it, seeming to be hesitating about what to do.
"Master, are you going to throw it away?" He Shuangran asked.
"No need." Bai Linchuan folded the black cloth and put it in his arms.
He Shuangran smiled knowingly.
The long river flowed, and the lanterns floated down the Yonghe River. Bai Linchuan stood on the riverbank at the downstream corner and stopped two of the lanterns.
He opened the note and saw only one word written on it:
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, it was true.
When Mo Xue and Wei Si were releasing the lanterns, he paid close attention and quietly left spiritual marks on them.
He opened another one, and it was empty, without a single word on it, just a blank piece of paper.
Are you afraid of having your inner desires discovered, or do you simply not have any?
Bai Linchuan put the note away, his eyes instantly becoming cold and sharp.
