Those shadows got closer and closer to Lu Qingjiu, and Lu Qingjiu slowly backed away until his feet tripped on something in the grass, staggering and almost falling.
Lu Qingjiu lowered his head and saw the object that tripped him. It was a shrine made of stone. At first glance, it looked like a small pavilion with a human-shaped statue in the center of the pavilion. If you look closely, you will find that the appearance of this statue is somewhat similar to Yin Xun.
Lu Qingjiu's eyes fell on the shrine. I don't know if it was his delusion. He always felt that the stone figures on the shrine were very rough, but they were alive, as if they were about to become real people in the next moment. It seems to go up and down.
Lu Qingjiu heard the light footsteps stepping on the weeds behind him. He turned his head and saw Ao Run standing not far from him, with a calm expression on his face and closed eyes, but he seemed to be staring at Lu Qingjiu. sake. The dark shadows that had forced Lu Qingjiu here also disappeared, only the breeze blew through the weeds, making a rustling sound.
"What do you want to tell me?" Lu Qingjiu said, "or what do you want from me?" He wasn't afraid of Aorun, maybe it was because he had his blood in his body, he was seeing the prisoner dragon being punished beyond recognition. At that time, there was no fear in his heart, only pity and doubts remained.
Ao Run opened his mouth, Lu Qingjiu thought he was going to speak, but he only made hoarse syllables, he showed helplessness, walked in front of Lu Qingjiu, and motioned Lu Qingjiu to give him his hand as before.
Lu Qingjiu did as he did.
When he saw Yin Xun's family tablet falling down just now, Lu Qingjiu remembered a small detail that he had forgotten before. When he met Xuanyu that time, Yin Xun was unfortunately turned into a scarecrow, and it was Bai Yuehu who hurried over to help Yin Xun continue the incense. Judging from his skilled appearance, he obviously already knew how to continue the incense, and according to Bai Yuehu's lifespan, he might even know Lu Qingjiu's grandmother, but he never mentioned that his mother's tablet was among them... There is also the word "go" that Ao Run once avoided Bai Yuehu and wrote in his palm.
Why did Aorun let him go, and what was he worried about? Are you worried about Shuifu Village or Bai Yuehu
Lu Qingjiu didn't want to doubt his cute fox spirit, but he always felt that Bai Yuehu was hiding too many things from him.
Maybe it's good for him not to know the truth, because he is just an ordinary human with little power, but when he returned to Shuifu Village, he came for the truth. He now knew that his parents did not die in the mudslide, but he couldn't find any more clues to explore the real cause of their deaths.
Ao Run slowly wrote in Lu Qingjiu's hand: "I don't want anything, I just want you to get out of here."
Lu Qingjiu: "Because of Bai Yuehu?"
Ao Run hesitated for a while, but nodded.
Lu Qingjiu's heart was cold, he licked his lips, and said hoarsely, "What... did he do?"
Ao Run was silent.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Lu Qingjiu could only guess by himself. His mind was spinning so fast that he even thought of a guess that made him feel both reasonable and absurd: "Bai Yuehu, is it my grandma's, is it the new tenant?" He asked When this problem arises, the speed of speech is very slow, and at the same time, the expression on Ao Run's face is observed.
Ao Run's expression really tightened slowly, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and finally he raised his index finger and wrote a word in Lu Qingjiu's palm stroke by stroke: Yes.
Lu Qingjiu closed his eyes, digested the fact, and said, "So he has met my mother?"
Ao Run continued to write: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu said, "He also knows what happened back then?"
Ao Run hesitated this time: "No, he only knows part of it, and part of it, he doesn't know..."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Which part?"
Ao Run wrote: "About your mother and father, the real cause of death."
Speaking of this crucial point, Lu Qingjiu's heart jumped wildly. For the first time, he felt that the truth was so close to him, and he was eager to know that this village, which is usually gentle but always shows a hideous face occasionally What kind of story is hidden inside, he hurriedly said, "How did my parents die?"
Ao Run wrote: "I ate your mother."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
Ao Run said: "This is true."
Aorun had admitted this before, but Lu Qingjiu still refused to believe it. He did not believe that his grandfather, who seemed so gentle, would do such a thing. Besides, Bai Yuehu said that a polluted dragon could only Uncontrollably eating his favorite things, he said, "Are you being forced to do this?"
Ao Run stopped writing, he lightly touched Lu Qingjiu's head, his expression was sad and loving, and then, in Lu Qingjiu's disappointed eyes, he shook his head.
Lu Qingjiu was dumbfounded... This was completely different from what he thought.
Ao Run wrote: "But even though I ate her, she didn't die. Contaminated people will never die. Their souls will only continue to float and contaminate other things." He said, " So they can only suppress their souls, have you seen those tablets? Those tablets are the human souls that have been polluted."
Lu Qingjiu: "Then you want to put out the candles because you want to release these souls?"
Ao Run smiled lightly, he couldn't see Lu Qingjiu, he could only feel the outline of Lu Qingjiu's cheek with his fingers, feeling the only remaining relative in this world: "You know, after being contaminated, I Realised they were wrong."
"Wrong?" Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
Aorun wrote: "When the guardian dies, the dragon will not be polluted."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned. He remembered that Bai Yuehu had said something before, that after the death of the guardian, there is a high probability that the dragon clan will be polluted, but why does Aorun's words so firmly indicate the death of the guardian, and the death of the dragon clan? It doesn't matter if it's contaminated.
"This is a wonderful misunderstanding." Ao Run wrote, "Everyone thinks that if the guardian dies, the dragon will be polluted, but it's not at all."
Lu Qingjiu listened blankly.
Ao Run wrote: "In fact, all the contaminated dragons have another characteristic."
Lu Qingjiu asked in surprise, "What, what do you mean?"
Ao Run was about to speak, but suddenly he felt something, he turned his head slightly, his hair started to turn red, then put his lips to Lu Qingjiu's ear, and said a whisper that only they could hear: "Bai Yuehu I like you, what about you?"
Lu Qingjiu: "…"
Ao Run said: "What do you think, my lovely grandson - Lu Qingjiu."
Lu Qingjiu looked at Ao Run again, his hair had completely turned red. Compared with the black-haired him, he didn't have that warm and jade-like temperament at this time. He looked evil and arrogant, and he could speak. , Just the words he said made Lu Qingjiu feel cold all over.
"Do you have any special thoughts about him?" Ao Run said, "Will you want to have him? Will you be jealous?" His words sounded like a curse, "I'm starting to look forward to it."
After saying this, he suddenly got up and jumped away from here, and the next moment, a sharp weapon stabbed at his position.
"Stay away from him!" I don't know when, Bai Yuehu appeared on the mountain road. It seems that because of the use of power, he grew that long black hair, which was rising with the wind at this time, like a A black wing. He looked at Lu Qingjiu with some worry in his eyes. He waved to Lu Qingjiu and said, "Sake, come here."
Lu Qingjiu could hear a guilty conscience from Bai Yuehu's tone. Bai Yuehu was actually worried, worried that Lu Qingjiu would not go there. He must also know that Lu Qingjiu had learned more about the past from Aorun's mouth. , I learned that he was once grandma's tenant.
"Don't go, you will be killed by him." Ao Run said to Lu Qingjiu in a hoarse voice.
Lu Qingjiu glanced at Ao Run and walked towards Bai Yuehu without hesitation.
Ao Run gritted his teeth and stared at Lu Qingjiu's back: "Lu Qingjiu! You will regret it!"
Lu Qingjiu didn't look back. He has always been a person who knows what he wants, otherwise he wouldn't quit his job and go back to a remote mountain village because of a vague hexagram. Everyone has their own way to go. Lu Qingjiu didn't mind the road, there were other people accompanying him on this road.
When Bai Yuehu saw Lu Qingjiu returning to his side, he was obviously relieved. He wanted to say something to Lu Qingjiu, but the words came to his lips, but he didn't know how to say them.
Ao Run's expression was icy cold, and he was obviously full of hostility towards Bai Yuehu, but because of Lu Qingjiu's presence, he didn't say anything in the end, just turned around and left.
Lu Qingjiu looked at Ao Run's back and asked Bai Yuehu, "Aren't you going to chase?"
Bai Yuehu shook his head: "This is not my job."
Lu Qingjiu: "But..."
Bai Yuehu interrupted Lu Qingjiu: "If Yin Xun hadn't called me, he would have taken you away. Why didn't you tell me when you came here?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Because I don't think the person who extinguished the candle didn't want to kill me."
Bai Yuehu: "How do you know?"
Lu Qingjiu said with a smile, "Yin Xun and I are both scumbags, do we have to wait until I leave? Besides, just put out the candle, why mess with the tablet? That person just wanted me to see my mother's name. "
Bai Yuehu frowned: "This is just your guess, what if you guess wrong."
Lu Qingjiu blinked: "I guessed wrong, isn't it still you?"
Bai Yuehu: "..."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay, don't be angry, I'm just a little anxious." Seeing what Bai Yuehu wanted to say, he said, "Let's talk while we go home."
Bai Yuehu nodded.
It was late at night, but it wasn't scary. It was probably because summer was approaching, that in the grass beside the road there were actually fireflies dotted with dots. Lu Qingjiu reached out and grabbed one, watching it crawling in his palm. light.
Bai Yuehu followed behind Lu Qingjiu, saw his movements and said, "You don't have anything to ask me?"
Lu Qingjiu turned his head and glanced at him, then raised his hand and placed the firefly on the bridge of Bai Yuehu's firm nose. Bai Yuehu was stunned by Lu Qingjiu, and his eyes couldn't help looking at the firefly, "What do you do..."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Don't let it go, this is your punishment."
Bai Yuehu: "..."
Lu Qingjiu turned around: "Have you known me a long time ago?"
Bai Yuehu hummed vaguely: "I have seen you when you were young."
Lu Qingjiu thought for a while and asked an irrelevant question: "Why do you think I like foxes?" Lu Qingjiu really couldn't understand the fact that Bai Yuehu had to cover his vest, but he was reminded by Aorun. Next, he had an incredible idea. He may have met Bai Yuehu when he was a child, and he deeply hurt Bai Yuehu's glass heart at that time, causing Bai Yuehu to refuse to take off his fox vest.
Bai Yuehu fell silent. When Lu Qingjiu looked back, he saw a sullen look on his face, but the firefly on his nose, which was too frightened to move, made him angry, not scary at all, but extra cute stand up.
"You caught Zhou when you were young." Bai Yuehu said, "I became a little dragon for you to catch."
Lu Qingjiu was pretending to be serious, but when he heard Bai Yuehu's aggrieved tone, he couldn't help but smile.
Bai Yuehu said: "There was also a little fox caught together, but you insisted on catching the fox spirit, you will cry when I touch you."
Lu Qingjiu: "... This... children are not sensible, right?" He actually felt a little guilty.
Bai Yuehu continued: "Then when you were three years old, I secretly came to see you and wanted to give you a puppet made of a dragon."
Lu Qingjiu: "…"
Bai Yuehu is like an abandoned girl, telling how scum her husband is: "You just throw it away."
Lu Qingjiu whispered, "Maybe it's because I don't like puppets?"
Bai Yuehu said coldly, "You sleep with a fox doll every night."
Lu Qingjiu coughed awkwardly.
Bai Yuehu: "Have been hugging for several years!"
Lu Qingjiu pretended not to hear.
The puppet was bought for him by his parents from the city. It looks very cute and feels fluffy. It was a toy that Lu Qingjiu liked for a long time when he was a child. However, it was lost for no apparent reason, and Lu Qingjiu cried.
"I asked your grandma why you don't like me." Bai Yuehu said his grievance, "Your grandma said that you probably don't like bare reptiles, but like fluffy animals."
Lu Qingjiu defended: "Actually, I'm not that superficial..."
Bai Yuehu ruthlessly exposed Lu Qingjiu: "Is my tail easy to touch?"
Lu Qingjiu: "…"
Bai Yuehu said: "It doesn't matter, I'm a fox spirit anyway, whoever says I'm not a fox spirit, I will eat it."
Lu Qingjiu immediately became cowardly. Originally, he was righteous at first. Now he is cowardly like a bastard who has touched hot water.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay, okay." He stopped again, took off the firefly from Bai Yuehu's nose, and put it on his nose, "I'm sorry, I apologize."
Bai Yuehu: "Humph."
"But you shouldn't hide so many things from me." Lu Qingjiu said, "Did my grandma die of illness?"
Bai Yuehu said slowly, "En."
Lu Qingjiu said: "And my mother... my mother." He remembered the tablet that his mother was suppressed, and became a little confused, "My mother is polluted?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu: "But didn't she leave Shuifu Village? Why is she still polluted?"
Bai Yuehu sighed, "That was an accident." With his slow narration, Lu Qingjiu roughly understood what happened that year.
That summer, there was an accident in Shuifu Village. The place where the two worlds meet was destroyed by the candle dragon, and the aura of another world flowed out. Lu Qingjiu's parents just returned to Shuifu Village. Unfortunately, his mother was contaminated, and there was no news after that. Although he didn't know what happened at the time, Bai Yuehu guessed that it might be because of the dragon blood in Fang Yu's body, which caused Fang Yu to be contaminated by the breath of another world, and after being contaminated, he met Ao Run. Lu Qingjiu knew what happened after that. Ao Run admitted that he had eaten Fang Yu and Fang Yu's husband, and suffered a cruel punishment unique to the dragon family.
After listening to Bai Yuehu's narration, Lu Qingjiu said, and thought for a moment: "So, you told me before that my mother didn't eat my grandfather, so you lied to me?"
Bai Yuehu shook his head: "No, I just analyzed it from the nature of the dragon clan. This is against common sense. Besides, no one really saw him eating your mother at that time. All the testimony is the words of his family."
Lu Qingjiu said, "But why did he tell such a lie?" He couldn't imagine how heartbroken his grandmother felt when she found out that her daughter was eaten by her husband.
Lu Qingjiu continued: "And he also admitted in front of me, admitting that he ate my mother." He looked up at Bai Yuehu with a fragile expression, "He said it himself."
Bai Yuehu didn't speak, reached out and grabbed Lu Qingjiu's hand, the temperature of his palm passed through his skin to Lu Qingjiu's hand, calming Lu Qingjiu's heart.
Bai Yuehu: "He must have his own difficulties."
Lu Qingjiu stopped talking, just nodded lightly.
"But even if he has difficulties, it's not a good thing to lead you up the mountain in the middle of the night." After talking about his parents, Bai Yuehu became angry, "What should you do if something happens to you!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Isn't it all right? By the way, how is Yin Xun's incense candle?"
"It's okay." Bai Yuehu said, "That incense candle is not so easy to extinguish."
The firefly on the tip of Lu Qingjiu's nose left Bai Yuehu, and finally regained his strength. He waved his wings and flew towards other places, but Lu Qingjiu didn't reach out to stop him.
"I'm sleepy, go back to sleep, I'll talk about other things tomorrow." Lu Qingjiu muttered, "And I forgot to pick the loquats today, so I have to make loquat paste..."
Bai Yuehu said: "Tomorrow I will help you pick them."
Lu Qingjiu hummed and did not refuse.
The two walked to the house holding hands like this. When Bai Yuehu let go of Lu Qingjiu's hand, he was still a little reluctant. His appearance reminded Lu Qingjiu of what Ao Run said - do you have anything special about him? Thoughts, would you want to have him? Will you be jealous
Lu Qingjiu imagined the scene of Bai Yuehu holding hands with the others. Although he was a little surprised, he still had to admit that he would really be jealous.
Bai Yuehu didn't know what Lu Qingjiu was staring at, thinking that there was something on his face, so he reached out and touched his face in doubt: "What, what are you looking at me for?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Hey, have you ever been in a relationship before?"
Bai Yuehu was stunned for a moment, thinking he heard it wrong: "What?"
"I said have you ever been in a relationship?" Lu Qingjiu asked, "Are you an adult dragon? How old are you?"
Bai Yuehu: "I..." He wanted to say that he hadn't talked about it, but he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he didn't even have a lover after so many years. After being single for hundreds of years, if he changed his father, he might have children. Hundreds of years old, so he said: "That's what I don't want to talk about!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "That means there is no more?"
Bai Yuehu: "..."
Lu Qingjiu: "Huh?"
Bai Yuehu hummed, if he had fox ears, those ears would definitely droop down sadly.
Lu Qingjiu: "Just... I didn't think about falling in love with someone?" He asked tentatively.
Bai Yuehu: "With whom?" He seemed to vaguely feel that there was some important information hidden in Lu Qingjiu's question, but he had no concept of love, but he misunderstood, and immediately expressed his attitude seriously, " Do you want to fall in love? With whom? There are no girls of the right age in this village, you have the blood of the dragon family, and your lifespan is different from that of ordinary people, so you can't just delay others."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." He hadn't thought of this, but Bai Yuehu's mentioning it made him solve a worrying problem.
Bai Yuehu looked at the silent Lu Qingjiu, but was a little unhappy. When he thought that Lu Qingjiu might be with others, he felt unpleasant that his things were coveted by others, and urged, "You talk."
Lu Qingjiu laughed: "Yes, I want to fall in love."
Bai Yuehu stared at Lu Qingjiu with a serious expression, and when Lu Qingjiu continued to speak, he had even decided in his heart that no matter what name Lu Qingjiu said, he would express strong opposition.
Lu Qingjiu said, "I just don't know if that person is willing or not."
Bai Yuehu: "Would she dare?" Lu Qingjiu was a child he watched growing up. Although Lu Qingjiu had left Shuifu Village for a while, the Dragon Clan was known for protecting their shortcoming. Even if he didn't want Lu Qingjiu to fall in love, But that must be Lu Qingjiu's unwillingness, it is impossible to allow other people to look down on Lu Qingjiu.
Seeing Bai Yuehu's angry look, Lu Qingjiu laughed in his heart, and he didn't even bother to put a trick on his fake fox spirit: "What if he really doesn't want to?"
Bai Yuehu grinned, revealing neat white teeth: "I ate her."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Really?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Of course it's true."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay, you have to keep your word."
Bai Yuehu didn't speak again, but stood beside him quietly waiting for Lu Qingjiu's answer. Although there was no strange expression on his face, the countless emotions in his heart had already turned upside down. People pulled it out and ate it.
Lu Qingjiu said, "That person's name is Bai Yuehu."
Bai Yuehu said: "Bai Yuehu? What stupid name—wait?" He widened his eyes in surprise, full of disbelief, "What did you say?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "I said, I want to fall in love with Bai Yuehu."
Bai Yuehu: "..."
"Why, aren't you happy?" Lu Qingjiu was also an adult. He hadn't thought about it before, but after being reminded by his grandfather, he almost immediately understood his intentions. Life is too short, and he is not a person who likes to hesitate. Now that he understands that he likes the white moon fox, he naturally wants to be with this cute fake fox spirit.
Bai Yuehu didn't hesitate any longer, and nodded heavily the next moment.
