Volume 1 Huangquan December, Chapter 121: Borrowing Scenery to Create Love
Only three people were left standing here blankly, as if everything was back to where it started.
The sun rose, and the low-temperature sunlight shone down, making their faces even paler. No one knew what had just happened, what would happen if it were added, let alone what to do.
"Well, you are familiar with the terrain here, you should know how to get there..."
Mu Wan nodded stiffly and walked ahead of them.
"This is already inside the Snow Inkstone Sect, there is no need to go through the main entrance."
"Is that so? That would be convenient."
Even in late autumn, the special terrain of Xueyan Valley kept the cold air out of the mountains. Everything here was still warm and familiar, and the stiff and invisible shell on her face slowly faded away.
It has melted. But it should still be very cold outside the mountains. I wonder if my mother has prepared any winter clothes.
She thought silently and walked silently without saying a word. Ahead was a piece of damp mud with a stream running through the center. To make it easier for people to walk, a large gravel path was paved here, and solid stones were placed between the streams.
.The water flowed happily without making any noise. There was still plenty of water, but it was a bit muddy, maybe because it rained two days ago.
When she reached the middle of the river, she suddenly pointed to an open space diagonally across from the table. The white reeds and pink and purple daisy flowers were in bloom, and they were large and beautiful. She said:
"That's where I found Baidi."
"Um……"
Dai Luan responded, but Shan Hai didn't say anything. He knew that she must have thought of Han Shui Ji, the lost shikigami.
After walking for about a stick of incense, they climbed over a hill and could vaguely see a few uniformly dressed people. They should be the patrolling disciples of the Xue Inkstone Sect. They were a bit far away, and Mu Wan hadn't called them yet. Shan Hai, pay attention.
You see, the styles of those clothes are simpler than those of Mu Wan and Yan Muxue, but they are also in dark green and white tones.
She suddenly stopped and touched her face blankly. Then she turned around and suddenly asked:
"Is my face dirty?"
"No, it's not dirty..."
"Really? Do you feel...thinner? Than when we first met."
"We see each other every day, how can you tell from this?"
She stretched out her hands and patted her face vigorously, muttering to herself.
"Should the swelling make you look fatter and your face look better... By the way, Aluan, do you still have the rouge on you?"
Ah Luan was unloading the box and preparing to find Rouge for her, when Shan Hai noticed two people walking from a distance, one tall and one short, both girls. They were stunned for a moment, talked about something together, and then quickened their pace.
He hurried over. Shanhai touched Mu Wan's sleeve and motioned for her to look back.
As soon as she turned around, she froze there.
Her body leaned forward, but her feet did not move. The two girls rushed over and ran straight in front of her. The taller girl almost caught up with the mountains and seas. She was wearing a dark green cross-neck skirt with an undershirt.
The lining gradually changes to the yellow of buds, and the satin shines with dark patterns of white flowers in the sun. The outside is covered with an olive-colored turban, and there are beautiful smoke patterns on the hem and sleeves.
The other girl looked young, even younger than Aluan. She wore an off-shoulder dress with rolled sleeves, a big knot tied in front of her waist, and a satin flower pinned to it. Her clothes were like sapphire,
It looks very refreshing, but the workmanship and pattern are exactly the same as the other one. It should be embroidered by the same tailor. Although the styles are different, it can be seen that they are disciples of the same sect as Mu Wan. The heads of the two girls
They are all very long, even longer than Shi Wuqi's. Only the older girl has a small bun on the back of her head, while the younger girl has another short bun tied in front of her left shoulder.
As soon as they met, Mu Wan's tense nerves suddenly relaxed. She suddenly grabbed the eldest girl's hand. Although she had a long mouth, she didn't say a word for a long time. With mixed feelings, she finally vomited out three words.
words.
"Sister Yao..."
Her voice was so soft that she didn't even hear it. But the other party held her hand tightly and spoke to her gently. Her voice was like the wind in the valley, deep and warm all year round.
"It's really you... We saw you from a distance. I'm not sure yet, but Aling insists it's you. You've lost a lot of weight and you don't look energetic... The calluses on your hands are so thick."
"Where is it? I haven't had a good rest in the past two days." She suddenly withdrew her hand and bent down to hug the other girl, "Aling has grown so tall, it's great...it's been so long..."
The little girl named Aring hugged her tightly and didn't let go for a long time. She hung her arms around Mu Wan's neck, leaned into her ear, and said to her happily:
"Look, I am also a disciple of Xue Yan Sect now!"
Mu Wan quietly wiped the corners of his eyes before letting go of her, and then looked her up and down.
"Yes, yes, I was about to ask you why you are with your sister... I thought you were here to see her and stay for a few days. I didn't expect that you had already started... Shouldn't you wait until you are an adult? I remember
Your birthday is not this time. I was so shocked that I almost blamed myself for not bringing you a gift... Whose disciple did you become? Is it Senior Brother Wu? When you were still in his arms, he
I just joked that I would accept you as my disciple..."
Senior Sister Yao said softly: "No, she became a disciple of the fourth senior brother. You know, now that the master is away, the burden falls on the senior brother. He is very busy. These rules were also taken because of the absence of the master.
Ban, she said she wanted to join her. He originally said he was willing to take her in, but... I thought about it again and again, and for some reasons, I decided to forget it. I will talk to you in detail later. By the way, when you come back this time,
Could it be that you brought news about Master?"
Mu Wan's heart felt like a heavy hammer. She trembled all over and felt terrible pain in her chest. Her body was cold, but her face was a little hot. She knew how unrealistic the Haikou she had boasted about back then was, and she also knew that once she came back
, it is normal to face such questions. Everyone, like her, is looking forward to news about the sect leader.
"I……"
She stumbled and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. Her senior sister immediately realized that this question would trouble her and did not make things difficult. She quickly changed her words and asked about the situation of the two people behind Mu Wan. After being left alone for a long time, she opened her mouth.
The master and apprentice bowed to them, and the two sisters returned the favor. Xie Hualing circled Dai Luan a few times, looking left and right. Ah Luan was shorter than her peers, and they were about the same height.
.
After reporting their family status, they learned that these two were also close friends of Mu Wan in the Xueyan Sect, and were a pair of biological sisters. The elder sister was Xie Huayao, and the younger sister was Xie Hualing. Xie Huayao was not a direct disciple of the sect master, but
The disciple of the sect master. Now, my sister is regarded as the sect master's second disciple. Mu Wan said that the entire sect is still traditional, using swords as weapons, but his umbrella skills were learned from senior sister Yao. Speaking of which, they
I noticed that Xie Huayao did bring an umbrella. The oil-paper umbrella was also white, but a layer of light pea green spread in the center of the umbrella, like ink dyed by water.
"We, the Xie Hua clan, are from a family of onmyojis. These things are portable and practical, and can catch them unawares. These weapons do not have to be swords, guns, swords and halberds. If the weapons are used well, they can become a part of the body. In other words, as long as they can be used with oneself,
Anything that is integrated into one can become a weapon." She said.
Mu Wan told them that her mother moved outside the valley and lived very close to Xie Hua's ancestral home. In the past, the two of them often went home to visit relatives together. If they wrote letters to their families first, A Ling would arrive earlier than the letter.
She stayed at the door of her house for three days, fearing that they would come back early sometimes - in fact, she could always wait for them in advance.
Xie Hualing was holding a green paper folding fan. She pulled Mu Wan back and wanted to show her the newly learned moves.
"That's great... Well, a friend of mine is also very good at using folding fans. If he were here, he would definitely be able to give you some pointers."
"Really? Then why doesn't Sister Wan invite him back?"
Aling held Dai Luan with one hand and Mu Wan with the other. Mu Wan's eyes wandered a little, and his tone was a little hesitant.
"He, he... it's not convenient for him. But, he will definitely come..."
Shan Hai remained silent and followed silently to the edge, standing next to Dai Luan. Dai Luan and Mu Wan both held Xie Hualing's hand, and Mu Wan's other hand was holding Xie Huayao's hand.
If you put aside all your worries for a while...
It wouldn't be a bad idea if time stopped like this.
if--
Xie Huayao knew that her life was not going well, so she did not notify the other disciples in a big way. Although Aling wanted to run out and tell the whole world that Senior Sister Liangqiu was back, she tried to restrain herself and stayed with them sensibly.
In Xueyan Valley, as side disciples, their training does not have to be so difficult, and many of the slightly harsh regulations of the sect master do not apply to them. Xie Huayao asked someone to build a place in a more secluded place in the valley.
The small courtyard. The courtyard has always been deserted. Occasionally, other senior sisters would stay overnight. When I was alone, the place seemed empty, but when several of them entered at the same time, there was no place to stay.
The terrain here is relatively high, and you can see a continuous line of reeds and flowers in the distance. The furry sea is like a dream, like a scene in a painting. The wooden window frame is made of ordinary material, but it is exquisitely carved, like a picture frame.
Aluan and Aling held up their faces and stretched out their heads to take a look.
After everyone settled down and Senior Sister Yao boiled water and made tea, they all sat down quietly. The depressing feeling that no one mentioned along the way but was always with them finally emerged.
"The valley is pretty good...under the care of the uncles and senior brothers, everything is in order."
"Really? I see that the patrols have more manpower than in the past. Has anything happened recently?" Mu Wan asked her.
"No, everything is fine. It's just that... the senior uncles are all old, and they were all seriously injured by Lord Yingyue at that time, which caused the root cause of their illnesses. Now, senior brother Wu basically has the final say. He is a little too busy,
At first, the discipline in the sect was a bit lax, but he soon tightened it. But... he accepted many people with unknown origins from outside the valley as disciples, and also made sworn friends from people in the world. Some people even heard that... he and monsters
There is contact."
A Ling looked back at the tea table, but did not answer. Dai Luan also looked over, neither of them daring to say anything.
