I listened to Rujun's gentle words and enjoyed the silence of midnight. It was really comfortable indescribably. When I heard Rujun say that the longer a person lives, the more confused he becomes, I suddenly blurted out and asked: "Rujun
, then in the past few hundred years, have you ever fallen in love with anyone?"
As soon as I said this, I felt a bit rash, but after all, this was something I really wanted to know, so I asked anyway.
Rujun looked at me and suddenly laughed, very happily. She laughed for a while and then asked: "Lin Yang, I really can't answer your question, because these hundreds of years have really
It’s been so long that I’ve even forgotten whether I’ve ever had a heartbeat…”
I frowned slightly and said, "Then...is it true that there has never been a man who is unforgettable to you? You are so beautiful, there must be a lot of people chasing you."
Rujun said with a smile: "I really forgot. Maybe there is no one who can make me remember. I climbed up too fast in the Wang family. Sometimes there may be one or two exciting opportunities and one or two suitable candidates."
, but for one reason or another, I missed it..."
At this point, Rujun suddenly smiled and said: "Fortunately, I have a long life and can afford to wait. If you don't have me for a day, you can wait for a day. If you don't have me for a year, you can wait for a year. If you don't have me for a hundred years, I can wait for a hundred years."
"
I looked at Rujun talking, smiling as clear as a child, and suddenly asked boldly: "So Rujun, do you have any plans to find a... uh... boyfriend?"
"Boyfriend?" Rujun seemed to be very unfamiliar with this word. She smiled and said, "I've thought about it too."
As he spoke, Rujun suddenly looked at the flickering street lights in the distance and said softly: "Maybe when I become a normal person again, I can also be born, old, sick and die, and have joy, anger, sorrow and joy... At that time, I will find someone else,
Live your life well."
When I heard this, I suddenly felt like I was immersed in a sea. I don’t know why, but when I looked at Rujun, I had an idea from the bottom of my heart, that is, I hope everything is fine for Rujun.
, she must smoothly accompany Mingjun in her body to spend her final life, and then smoothly transform back into an ordinary person... I even want to witness her slow aging until her death, I don't want to miss Rujun.
Every moment in life.
Unknowingly, we had arrived at Zaojun Temple, and Rujun stopped in front of a traffic light.
She smiled and said: "Okay, Lin Yang, let's just send him this far. Go back quickly and have a good rest. There may be many challenges tomorrow."
I nodded and said, "Okay, but...how do you go back?"
Rujun smiled and said: "Are you stupid? Don't forget, I am not an ordinary person now, so I naturally have my own way of leaving."
Before she finished speaking, Rujun's body flashed and she gradually merged into the night. I saw her figure gradually become transparent and disappear, until finally she completely disappeared. Everything happened in just a few seconds.
Only then did I realize that with Rujun’s current ability, he definitely didn’t need to take simple transportation, so it would be meaningless for me to come out to see him off.
But looking at the streets we walked together just now, seeing off this time became very meaningful again.
There was nothing to say all night, but I couldn't sleep for a long time.
During lunch the next day, the crazy Taoist invited Dahuang to come back and bought a lot of good food. He also asked Dahuang to buy a few bottles of wine.
The wines are all good wines, and they are all strong ones. I never knew that this crazy old guy, besides being lustful, was also a good drinker.
This is not a good habit.
The four of us sat down at the kitchen table, facing the sumptuous food and wine on the table, as happily as if we were celebrating the New Year.
The crazy Taoist laughed, pointed at the liquor on the table and said, "Everyone, my old madman is definitely the best in the world at swordsmanship, but drinking... humph, no."
Dahuang smiled and said: "Master, to be honest, I have never seen you drink alcohol since I was a child."
The crazy Taoist nodded, but glared at Dahuang and said, "Don't interrupt yet, just listen to what I have to say."
Then the mad Taoist continued: "But today, I am very happy, so I have to drink... Why are I happy? Because I saw the three of you. You three are all good. You are among the younger generation who can stand alone."
To be honest, our so-called eight masters back then were far less accomplished than you at your age..."
Having said this, the crazy Taoist pointed at Dahuang and asked: "Xuan'er, tell me, what is your ideal?"
Dahuang was surprisingly shy at this time and said with a smile: "Of course I want to become the best traveler in the world."
The mad Taoist laughed so hard that the teeth in his mouth were exposed, and said: "Okay! Very good, this is my disciple! Although the eight masters are all powerful, no one dares to say that before they are forty years old.
I have never wanted to be the best traveler in the world!"
After saying this, he added: "Even me, the most shameless person, never said such crazy words when I was twenty!"
Having said this, the crazy Taoist pried open the wine bottle and said: "Come! Drink!"
This old lunatic's attitude is such that everyone is already drunk.
We drank a round quickly, and the crazy Taoist pointed at the old cat and said: "Cat, let me tell you, there is something on your mind, don't think I can't see it... But it doesn't matter if you have something or nothing, this matter
No matter how big or small the matter is, as long as you have two good brothers, Xuan'er and Lin Yang, by your side, no matter how big the matter is, it can't be considered a matter, you know?"
The old cat nodded and said nothing.
The crazy Taoist continued: "I don't know what is on your mind, kid, nor how big the matter is on your mind, but don't forget, no matter how difficult or painful it is, you have to say it to your brothers.
.”
The old cat nodded again, but stopped talking.
As for what exactly was on Lao Mao's mind, the crazy Taoist didn't reveal it, and neither did Lao Mao himself.
Finally, the crazy Taoist looked at me and said with a smile: "Lin Yang... Hehe, Lin Yang, tell the truth, your grandfather is the person I admire most in my life. From ancient times to the present, maybe only the rebirth of Zhuge Liang, the lord of Wuxiang, can
I'm a match for your grandpa... But having said that, if I were your grandpa, I would never be willing to hide in the mountains for the rest of my life... Sorry, I don't mean it maliciously, don't be angry."
I nodded. The old madman must know more about my grandfather than me, and he must have more say than me.
The mad Taoist continued: "But you, in your early twenties, are the youngest among us, and you are already able to fuse with the ghosts. It's amazing."
Having said this, the crazy Taoist suddenly drank a glass of wine by himself and said: "You can make a thousand-year-old ghost trust you and merge with you willingly. This ability alone makes me convinced!"
After saying that, he suddenly smiled obscenely and added: "If you like Rujun, go and chase him. Don't worry and chase him boldly! Don't think too much. Wouldn't it be a pity if young people haven't done anything crazy?"
I didn't nod or shake my head, I just looked at him awkwardly.
The mad Taoist laughed, raised his glass, and said, "Come! Drink!"
As he spoke, the crazy Taoist led us to drink for another round. After finishing the drink, Dahuang's face suddenly changed slightly and asked: "Master, why do I feel that something is wrong with you today?"
The crazy Taoist shook his head and said with a smile: "Nonsense, what's wrong with me? I'm very happy. I'm just having a meal and taking you to eat something good, but something's wrong?"
Dahuang had no choice but to keep silent.
The crazy Taoist continued: "By the way, one more thing. There may be some experts from the Xu family coming tonight. We will definitely not be able to win this battle today."
After hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little strange. This issue was mentioned by Rujun last night, but last night the crazy Taoist was still determined to fight against the Xu family. Why did it change so much today?
Before I had time to ask, the crazy Taoist suddenly said: "What? It's not that I'm a coward, but sometimes we don't have to fight head-on. So, let's avoid it tonight. Lin Yang, don't you know Wang Rujun? You're taking it with you.
Lao Mao and Da Huang went to Wang Rujun's place to take refuge..."
