Gu Qingling was slightly lost in thought: "I still remember."
She also remembered the wish she made in front of the mountain god when she was young.
At that time, Gu Qingling said——
"I want to grow up and be taller. I want to become very powerful, able to protect myself and others..."
Now it seems that she did it.
The carp lantern gradually flew away, and the few lights that fell in Gu Qingling's eyes slowly dimmed. At this time, Pei Hongdu had already processed the last formation hub.
"Okay, now all the formation hubs are sealed. We can go back and resume our lives."
The mountain god said: "Those monsters from the devil world will not appear again in the future, will they?"
Gu Qingling: "Well! They will never bother people here anymore."
The mountain god was finally relieved, and a smile appeared on his young face: "That's great. Are you leaving?"
Pei Hongdu did not answer. After all, the most important matter at the moment has been resolved. Whether to go or stay depends entirely on Gu Qingling's wishes. No matter what, he will accompany her.
Gu Qingling looked at the mountain god and stood there with a little reluctance in her eyes: "If I leave, will I never be able to see you again?"
The mountain god nodded honestly: "That's true. However, I will turn into the wind, rain and dew, repeating the cycle without end. So you don't have to feel sad, it's just the law of all things. And... you have your own way to go, right?
?"
Lu Qingling seemed to be awakened, her eyelashes were moist, she smiled and nodded.
"Then let's leave first. For the rest of the time, I think you would rather stay with this mountain."
The boy in white stood on the top of the mountain, watching the two people's backs gradually go away, then turned around, spread out his palm to catch a fallen leaf, and murmured: "Harvest in autumn and store in winter, this year's harvest should be good."
……
The mountain road on the way back was endlessly lonely, the wind had stopped, and the water had stopped. If it weren't for the lights that could be seen in the distance, Gu Qingling even wondered if she had entered some kind of enchantment.
"Pei Hongdu, I have already sent the news about the formation hub to the demon world. But I don't want to go back now. Let's go shopping outside again."
Pei Hongdu nodded without hesitation: "Okay. Is there a place you want to go?"
Gu Qingling said: "Well... how about we go to the Demon Realm? I heard a while ago that there will be a grand scene on Luoxiapo in the Demon Realm. I have been thinking about it for a long time. I must go and see it this time. But we have to hide it from Master.
Watch it secretly, and then go find him after watching it!"
Pei Hongdu nodded: "Okay. Do you want to see Xiu Niang?"
Gu Qingling: "Of course, let's at least--"
Before he finished speaking, countless carp lanterns lit up like stars on the dark path. The tail fins were decorated with golden lights, reflecting each other and shining brightly, illuminating the road ahead.
What she was about to say was blocked in her mouth, and she looked at all this with bright eyes.
These carp lanterns seemed to be alive, swaying their tail fins and swimming slowly. One of them was pressed against her forehead, as if she was lost. Lu Qingling touched it with her finger, and then she speeded up and swam behind her.
Pei Hongdu's snow-white and handsome face was dyed warm red by the carp lantern. He slowly stretched out his hand towards Gu Qingling and said softly: "It should be trying to light the way forward for us. It's serious."
Gu Qingling smiled brightly: "Yes! Pei Hongdu, you know, when I was a child, I always felt that no one loved me."
She picked up a carp lantern, held it in front of Pei Hongdu, poked his face gently with the paper fish mouth, and smiled: "Now it seems that I was also favored by others in the past!"
Pei Hongdu held her wrist and indulged her nonsense, with a smile in his eyes: "Yes."
"Let's go, let's go, it's almost dawn, and Xiu Niang and the others are getting up too."
"Do you need to bring something early?"
"I would have forgotten it if you didn't tell me! I remember that there is a candy cake that is particularly delicious. If we go there early, we will definitely be able to grab it——"
As the first ray of glow appeared on the horizon, the light of the carp lantern gradually dimmed, and then dispersed in the cool air.
