As the night deepened, the song ended and the crowd dispersed.
The disciples of Jijin Sect left together. Unlike when they came, they were lively and cheerful. When they left, they walked with heavy steps and looked at a loss.
This is destined to be a sleepless night.
Zhu Changyang took Jun Shu away with him. Jun Shu was usually not active, and after drinking he became a little slow, following Zhu Changyang stupidly.
When Zhu Changyang walked, he walked; when Zhu Changyang stopped, he stopped.
Zhu Changyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to grab his hand and pull him to his side: "Follow me."
Jun Shu looked down at the wrist that Zhu Changyang was holding, thought for a moment, slowly changed the position of holding it together, and tightened his palm, "Like this."
Zhu Changyang laughed. Even though Jun Shu was drunk, he still cared about some unnecessary details.
This is what it means to be strong throughout life.
At this time, of course I can only go along with him, "Okay, you're my only brother, I'll listen to you."
Jun Shu smiled with satisfaction, "That's pretty good."
He is indeed a first-class pole climber.
Zhu Changyang held his chin with his hand and was about to move forward.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over. A drunk disciple of the Jijin Sect pointed at them excitedly and shouted: "Why are you holding hands? No, no, you are not allowed to hold hands in our sect..."
Zhu Changyang: “…?”
It seems that what happened tonight caused great psychological trauma to Ji Jin Zong, and he has become so PTSD.
Another disciple who was still sober quickly came over and grabbed the man, "Hey, brother, you are drunk, I will take you back."
Then he turned to apologize to Zhu Changyang, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, my senior brother lost his temper after drinking, please don't blame me."
Zhu Changyang waved his hand in understanding: "It doesn't matter..."
Before he finished speaking, Jun suddenly took a step forward, raised his chin and sneered at the drunken disciple: "If I want to lead you, what's it to you!"
Zhu Changyang: “Cough cough cough!”
Jun Ge's damn competitive spirit always comes out at strange times!
The other party was obviously stunned for a moment, then whimpered and said angrily, "I, I am thinking about you. If I hold your hand, I have to take responsibility. Do you understand?"
Zhu Changyang: “Puff—”
The junior fellow student next to him sweated profusely upon hearing this, and dragged him away forcefully: "Senior brother, you should go to bed as soon as possible."
The man was still struggling, "Holding hands, it's considered an agreement..."
Zhu Changyang:
Angela, is that you
Studio:
[What the hell, he suddenly wrote lyrics!!! Could this guy also be a host of the plane?! ]
[Not really, I just felt really sad for the Sect Master, it was just a coincidence, but I was really grateful when I heard it.]
[Shao Han is right. Zhu Changyang has to take responsibility for holding someone's hand! Be responsible like Nan Rongbo was to Si Kou Luo, and practice dual cultivation with me!]
[Double cultivation! Double cultivation! Double cultivation!]
Zhu Changyang didn't think much about it at first, but when he was disturbed by the disciples of Jijin Sect, he did feel a little strange.
He glanced at Jun Shu and laughed dryly, "He's drunk, don't listen to his nonsense..."
"I know." Jun Shu's eyes were hazy, and he said vaguely, "He should be responsible, responsible, let him take charge—"
At the end, he dragged out the tone, showing his great stubbornness.
Zhu Changyang: ?
Do these drunks know what they are talking about
Zhu Changyang felt that he should say something, but he also felt that he shouldn't argue with a drunkard.
After hesitating for a while, he finally said nothing. With mixed feelings, he pulled Jun Shu back to the yard where they lived.
"We're here." Zhu Changyang escorted Jun Shu to his room, opened the door, and pushed him inside. "Hurry up and rest."
Jun Shu held onto Zhu Changyang tightly, frowning and asking quietly, "What about you?"
Zhu Changyang was puzzled: "I'm going back to my room."
Jun Shu immediately turned around and said, "Then I'll go to your room with you."
A question mark popped up on Zhu Changyang's forehead, and he couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
Jun Shu narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"
Zhu Changyang: "Why did you go to my room?"
When Jun Shu heard this, his face fell and he complained, "You said you would sleep with me, why didn't you keep your word?"
"… "
Zhu Changyang was speechless for a moment. It turned out that Jun Shu still remembered this matter? ! Could it be that he was talking about this matter when he complained with resentment two days ago that he had been refining weapons as soon as he came back, leaving him unable to sleep alone
so weird.
Zhu Changyang couldn't help but feel a little confused. Was Jun Shu just acting like a simple elementary school student, or was it something else
He thought about it for a moment and said tactfully: "That was outside, and now we are all back."
"Where are we going back to?" Jun Shu blinked slowly, as if puzzled. "Were we not always outside and never going back?"
Zhu Changyang: “…”
That seems to be correct.
The Ji Jin Sect is not their sect, so there is naturally no question of "coming back".
To be honest, Jijin Sect is not much different from Langzhu City and Qili City to them. They are just a place to stay during their journey.
Thinking of this, the previous doubts resurfaced.
Zhu Changyang never really stopped because he was not from this world. He had no origin and no way back.
So why is Jun Shu
He looked up at Jun Shu, and Jun Shu looked back at him straight away, without dodging or avoiding. His glass-like eyes had a hint of drunkenness in them, but they were clearly very straightforward and frank.
Speaking more frankly, "Are you going to sleep or not?"
There is even a hint of dominance.
Zhu Changyang gave up trying to reason with him, coughed lightly, and said calmly, "I'm not sleepy yet."
"Hmm?" Jun Shu tilted his head slightly, as if thinking about the meaning of this sentence. After a moment, he nodded slowly, "Oh, then I'm not sleepy either."
Zhu Changyang was both amused and confused: "Since you are not sleepy, then don't sleep. I will go back to my room..."
Before she could finish, Jun Shu suddenly pulled her hard and said, "Then let's look at the stars together."
Zhu Changyang:
How come Jun Ge still has such romantic feelings
Before he could think, Jun Shu had already pulled him to sit on the stone steps in the corridor. He looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "I look at the sky every night. When I can't sleep, I look at the stars..."
Zhu Changyang was shocked when he heard this.
What? Jun Shu actually has trouble sleeping? !
Judging from the frequency with which Jun Shu went out, he thought that Jun Shu was never awake in the room.
He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "So you like looking at the stars?"
"It's not because I like him..." Jun Shu paused, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he continued, "Maybe, it's because Xinghan is the only one who remains unchanged."
His voice was intoxicating, light and fluttering like a feather, brushing across Zhu Changyang's heart.
Zhu Changyang learned the phrase "沧海桑田" (cang hai san tian) when he was very young, but it was not until his trip to Qili City that he truly understood the phrase.
After thousands of years of changes, the Yu Se Sea became the Qi Li City, and the scales of the giant turtle turned into the rock layers of the earth.
These changes were unknown to the world at that time, but they eventually discovered the long-lost memories in the corals left by the ancient mermaids.
The so-called civilization is passed down from generation to generation in this way. It relies on the wisdom and beliefs of the predecessors to withstand the long years.
"In fact, stars will change too." Zhu Changyang thought of some astronomical common sense, and his tone was a little sad. "It's just that because the stars are very far away from us, when they change, it takes a very long time for us to see them, so we think they haven't changed. But some of the stars we see now may have exploded tens of thousands of years ago, but the explosion has not yet reached our field of vision..."
“Really?” Jun Shu tilted his head slightly, obviously not understanding the concept, but he did not refute it. Instead, he nodded slowly, “Then they were smart and did not let me see the explosion, otherwise I would be very angry!”
Brother Jun is really domineering.
Zhu Changyang laughed and added, "I'm talking about the stars I know. Maybe the stars you know will never change."
It is hard to say whether the world of cultivation exists on Earth. Since there is a great road like the Di Dao here, these stars may exist in another sky, and that cannot be applied with modern astronomical knowledge.
Jun Shu was puzzled. "Are the stars you know different from the stars I know?"
Zhu Changyang thought for a moment and answered honestly, "I don't know."
Jun Shu also thought about it and accepted his answer, "Okay."
After a long while, he said slowly, as if unconsciously, "It doesn't matter anyway. Even if the stars don't move, the world will eventually change."
These words didn't sound like an exclamation, but more like a statement.
Zhu Changyang's heart moved slightly, and the question that had been lingering in his mind resurfaced, and he said: "Jun Shu, I have a question for you."
The night wind blew past his eyelashes, and Jun suddenly felt his eyelids become heavy. He kept nodding his head to the side, but he still insisted on responding: "W-what?"
Zhu Changyang straightened his face and said seriously: "Can you tell me where you are from?"
Jun Shu was obviously stunned for a moment, and a look of confusion appeared under his drooping eyelids. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
This answer was exactly the same as Zhu Changyang's answer to Xingxing just now. Zhu Changyang was stunned. He thought that Jun Shu might refuse or be vague, but he never thought that the answer would be like this.
He knew that his answer just now was true.
So what was Jun Shu’s answer
Zhu Changyang thought about the various plots he had seen in TV dramas and asked carefully, "Have you... lost your memory?"
"What is amnesia?"
"Just forget about the past."
Jun Shu tried hard to keep his eyelids open, thought carefully, and nodded: "Probably. I slept too long, and I couldn't remember many things after waking up."
Zhu Changyang was slightly stunned.
Since they met in Buchendi, Jun Shu spent most of his time sleeping in his room, and Zhu Changyang always thought he was just lazy.
Could it be a sequelae
"How long have you slept?"
"I don't know." Jun Shu answered honestly, pointing his free hand to the sky. "But when I woke up, the star Canopus hadn't changed. Under the star Canopus was Yongze. I remember everything."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
What Jun Ge said is true. If we wake up from a sleep and even the star Canopus has changed, what will happen then
At this point, Zhu Changyang finally understood Jun Shu's many strange behaviors. Before, when he saw Jun Shu's origins were a mystery, he thought he was deliberately being mysterious.
Now I know that it was not intentional. It is really mysterious and even the person himself doesn't know what happened.
Moreover, the world of cultivation does not conduct a census, so this kind of thing is not everywhere, but it is not rare either.
Zhu Changyang pondered for a moment and asked, "Where is your sect?"
Jun Shu is an expert swordsman and also knows some basic weapon-refining magic. He must be from a famous family and maybe he can remember some clues.
Jun Shu really remembered and replied, "I don't have a sect."
Zhu Changyang was silent for a while before speaking, "Who taught you swordsmanship?"
Jun Shu thought carefully and finally found the answer from his chaotic consciousness. "No one taught me. I was born with it."
Zhu Changyang was slightly surprised, and then he recalled how the cultivation world described this situation, and asked, "Are you born with sword bones?"
This question seemed to have touched something. Jun Shu smiled inexplicably, his voice still light and vague in the night wind. "No, it's just that I happened to get the sword that day."
This answer went beyond Zhu Changyang's already limited knowledge of cultivation. "What does this mean?"
Jun Shu shook his head again, "I don't know, that's all I remember."
Zhu Changyang: “…”
What a random memory. If Jun Shu didn't look so innocent, he would have suspected that Jun Shu did it on purpose.
It seemed that he couldn't get anything out of him, so Zhu Changyang simply gave up and said jokingly, "Then what do you remember?"
He asked this question casually as a teasing question and didn't expect Jun Shu to answer.
Unexpectedly, Jun Shu turned around and stared at him for a long time: "I'm waiting."
His voice was still drunken, but his eyes were burning.
Zhu Changyang felt his ears burning with inexplicable heat when he was stared at by him. "What are you waiting for?"
Jun Shu laughed out loud, "I don't know, but you showed up."
Zhu Changyang: “…?”
Brother, what if I didn’t happen to land in the Pure Land when I traveled through time
Zhu Changyang felt that what Jun Shu said was very puzzling and full of the randomness of fate.
He wanted to ask again, but his shoulders suddenly sank. It was Jun Shu who could no longer hold up his heavy eyelids, and his head fell on his shoulders.
The long black hair fell like a waterfall, brushing against Zhu Changyang's cheek.
Zhu Changyang turned his head slightly and saw Jun Shu's bright eyebrows and the tightly closed eyelashes under his eyebrows.
Jun Shu's eyes were slightly upturned, and when he was silent, he had a natural arrogance. At this moment, his eyes were closed, and the arrogance was also suppressed, showing a rare gentleness.
Maybe he was in a good mood, as the corners of his lips were slightly curved.
Zhu Changyang originally wanted to wake him up, but seeing this, he couldn't help but chuckle and put down his hand that was trying to shake his shoulders.
I wonder if Jun Shu will recall the forgotten past in his dreams
Just as they were lost in thought, they heard a meow at their feet. A black cat with pink flowers on its head appeared from nowhere and circled around their feet.
"Shh—" Zhu Changyang made a silencing gesture and used his free hand to hold the developer on his lap and snored twice, "Don't disturb him."
The developer had opened his mouth to act cute, but upon hearing this, he swallowed his meow, lowered his head obediently, buried his head in Zhu Changyang's knees, and dozed off quietly.
The stars in the sky are as bright as ever.

[Ah, what a warm and romantic scene. Zhu Changyang, now that it has come to this, you should take responsibility! ]
[I didn’t do this when I was in a relationship. If these two don’t order anything, I’ll eat Guan San! ]
[Did you notice what Jun Shu said just now? He was waiting in Buchendi, and then Changyang appeared. Could this be the legendary "waiting for the rabbit"? ]
[SOS, why does such a bad joke appear in such a beautiful moment! ]
