This New Year was spent in Xue Yan Valley. They rested for a long time, and others were repairing the sect. Dai Luan subconsciously expected that this would be a different New Year. In fact, it was indeed different, but this "different
", which is "different" from what she thought. At least in her mind, this is a lively day when relatives and friends get together. Especially if it doesn't snow during the New Year, it will be even more boring. In previous years, Chen Xue from Xue Yan Valley relied on
At this time, the accumulated snow melted slowly and slowly, turning into spiritual energy and becoming a part of the valley forever.
It doesn't matter if it doesn't snow, everyone is busy with various things. The simplest one - if the house is not repaired, there will be a draft during the New Year. Fortunately, the granary is not affected. Chili knows that it is Wu Yuangui
I planned to repair it, and after taking a look, it was not bad.
She also has broken bones and cannot move around by herself. There is a small two-person sedan that can be carried by two strong young people. This was used by Master She before. Although he rarely shows up, he is either mysterious or mysterious.
, or show off one's power. At first, no one told her who it was, and she was simply too embarrassed to bother her classmates, so she insisted on walking on crutches, with Mo Liang supporting her. As a result, both of them stumbled and almost didn't fall on the way.
Bad. Someone took out this sedan for use. She was shaken a little. One of the junior fellow students spilled the beans, and she became embarrassed again. Then she heard that there was something wrong with the accounts of the warehouse, and the supplies distributed to the disciples every year were given to the previous ones.
The villains had finished their squandering and wanted to reconcile the accounts. Chi Li couldn't get over for a long time, and others immediately removed the colorful decorations on it, turning it into a bare wooden shelf, and she was willing to let people pull it over.
When Mu Wan heard this, she couldn't help but burst into laughter. The senior next to her whispered that she was as stubborn as her father.
But this New Year has been very happy. Although I am busy, it is already the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and there is no sense of the New Year at all. But relatives and friends from all over the world come and go, and there is a different kind of happiness. Mu Wan still belongs to everyone
Junior sister, there is no change from before. But as long as Xi Yu is present, they will call Mu Wan "senior sister". She has indeed grown up, but Xi Yu is the only one who is keen to help. At first, Shanhai was worried that she would be left alone.
She was bullied by others. But she saw that Chi Li was treating her well and everyone was polite to her.
There was no time to arrange any ceremony. Chili was already the new leader in everyone's mind, and she didn't even need to prove anything. She had rarely had contact with people, but it didn't mean that she wasn't good at it. In many things, her decision-making was better than that of Mu
Wan is faster and more effective, so she is indeed a more suitable candidate.
As for Wu Yuangui, he is probably trapped in an unbreakable barrier forever. He may live or die, no one wants to know. Because that area is remote, no one usually goes there. Mu Wan initially suggested setting it as
In the forbidden area, Chi Li said that it was not necessary. The more she did this, the more trouble her descendants would get into due to curiosity. She asked Shan Hai to change the layout of the Five Elements of the outside world, making it more hidden, more difficult to detect, and more difficult to detect.
...difficult to crack from the inside.
Where is Ye Yue-kun? She left without a single hello. No one even knew when she disappeared into the crowd, and no one remembered the moment of the day. At that time, everyone was immersed in a mixture of sorrow and joy.
In her emotions, she had no time to be distracted. Objectively speaking, she "ran away", but Shanhai and the others knew who she was. They believed she would come back.
Because Mo Liang is still here, he is still with Chi Li.
The Tengu has almost recovered, at least those strange scars have receded, but the coat color is still lackluster. No one can guarantee that there will be no strange root causes of the disease. They all suggested that Mu Wan take her to Xie Hua's house to have a look. I heard that they have targeted
Medicine for monsters and incurable diseases. Mu Wan's mother wanted to persuade them to stay, at least until next spring. But they couldn't delay, and Xie Hualing was still an unstable factor. No one sent letters during the New Year, so they used birds to pass letters to tell Xie
The news about the poisonous poison in the Hua family made Aling stop walking around. They didn't know if they had visited any relatives when they received it. These unknowns made them feel panicked. However, the letter did not mention the news of Xie Huayao's death. They planned to visit in person.
I'll find an opportunity to talk about it later.
There was no body in Ayao. It was completely burned by the fire. The remaining ashes were mixed with wood, bricks, and lime, and no one could find a complete person. The disciples sorted out her belongings and asked Shanhai to take them away.
I don’t know where her family will bury her. It may not be Xueyan Valley, so no one has mentioned the matter of repairing the tomb. Chili said that she wanted to move her mother’s tomb from Yunwai Jingli to make it complete.
My father is keeping company with me. I plan to wait for a good day after spring to do this.
While walking around Shanhai, I saw that a disciple had moved an extra piece of stone. It had been brought before the names and inscriptions were engraved on it. One more pit would probably need to be dug. As for whether the tomb meant Chi Li, it was up to other disciples to discuss it.
She acquiesced to her idea. As for whether her surname was Wu, Shanhai didn't ask, as Quan assumed he hadn't seen it. If Mu Wan had a chance to see it, let her find out for herself.
Mu Wan's mother received a letter from her son Siyan, which was not much different from before. She had received it years ago, and she only showed it to Mu Wan now. It was just to say that everything was fine, and to send some money and
It was time for the clothes to arrive. This year's harvest was mediocre. As an official, he was no different from a farmer. He led the lazy people to work in the fields every day. A warm current flowed from these calm words, which filled her heart.
The estrangement has become warmer again.
After recuperating and packing their luggage, it was already the tenth day of the Lunar New Year when they really set off. Chi Li and Mo Liang personally sent them to the mountains. Xi Yu also gave Dai Luan a lot of snacks to eat on the way. There were many people accompanying them.
The battle was huge. Everyone looked good. Mu Wan couldn't help but recall that when she came out of the valley, almost everyone was lying in the hospital, and no one saw her off. Now she finally made up for this practice. But she returned
When I went too far, the desolate illusion vaguely appeared again, as if there was no one behind me.
"Don't want to leave?" Dai Luan shouted from the front.
They are ahead.
"Coming, coming."
Originally, Chi Li was going to prepare horses for them, but it was faster to travel by car and by water. It wasn't until they were far away and no one could be seen when they looked back that Shan Hai spoke to Mu Wan. He said sincerely:
"I really wanted you to come selfishly, so I didn't agree with them and advised you to stay with your mother. Because we have never dealt with Xie Hua's family and are not familiar with it, maybe you can only come forward. If it is someone else
For other things, I hope you can stay a little longer. Walking with us is very tiring, and you are aimless except for important things, but you are always in a hurry."
"It doesn't matter. It's nothing. I have nothing to do if I stay. Chili is more suitable there than me. Who still remembers that, except for my master's affairs, at the beginning you actually promised Lord Jiyue to find someone for Lord Liangyue.
Where is Wan Guizhi?"
"...Hmm. That sounds like a long time ago?"
"Less than a year."
"Less than a year?"
"No. It was spring when I came out of the valley."
"Oh, that's soon."
"Yes, soon."
Dai Luan walked in the front, raised her head and looked at the sky. She suddenly felt a cold feeling on her forehead. She stretched out her hand and touched it, and felt that the coldness quickly disappeared between her fingers. Looking at the sky again, snow fell one after another, like
Awesome pear blossoms.
The snow finally fell.
It took less than ten days to arrive at Xie Hua's residence, and it was already mid-February. The weather was getting warmer, and the smell of spring could be smelled in the air. A large row of spring trees were planted at Xie Hua's door. They are blooming one after another.
, scattered golden dots in the dark green, it is really beautiful. As soon as they arrived in front of the gate, a guard stopped them.
"My lady doesn't have a birthday this year, so please come and visit me on another day."
"Wait a minute, is the lady you are talking about Miss Ling?"
The guard in witch uniform looked at them up and down and asked:
"Aren't you here to celebrate your birthday? Those who don't have a letter from the head of the family are not allowed to enter."
"No, we sent a letter..."
"Listen to me -"
Mu Wan interrupted Shan Hai and walked up to him. The guard recognized Xue Yanzong's clothes and looked hesitant. She explained, and then the guard turned to report to the head of the family. As soon as he left, someone came to take over.
In case they took the opportunity to sneak in, Shan Hai talked to the second person. He had a better temper, but was also very strict. After asking them for a while, he learned that they had received the letter. And it is said that as soon as Xie Hualing came back, someone in the family noticed the problem.
"The elder brother just said that it was Aling's birthday?" Dai Luan asked him.
"Yes. In order to prevent the poison you mentioned from spreading, the head of the family did not let her have contact with anyone. Her temperament also became very bad when she came back... To this day, when asked about her sister, she can only
She didn't mention anything, just said everything was fine. She was also very busy in previous years and often forgot to reply to letters home."
Shanhai thought to himself, I'm afraid that Aling was threatened and didn't dare to say a word. In this way, it would be more difficult for them to tell the truth. Dai Luan let out a sigh. This was different from the past, it had a little more weight.
It's no longer like a child's play. It's like a real, grown-up lament.
"How sick is she? Are there any signs of contagion?"
"Not really. The young lady's complexion and appetite are not very good, but she can still eat and drink as she should, and no one is affected."
"That's good. I didn't bring her any gifts, just snacks from the Xue Yan Sect."
"Thank you for your kindness."
Dai Luan turned around and said, "My birthday is coming soon."
Shanhaidao: "It's the first time this year that you won't celebrate your birthday at home. I'm afraid I won't have anything to give you."
"Who said that? I was in the medical clinic with Lord Ruyue before, and I should have taken care of him."
She didn't ask for any gifts. She had always wanted them before. But standing in front of Xie Hua's door, she suddenly didn't want them anymore.
They waited for a long time, not knowing how big Xie Hua's house was. Although the sun was not hot, the light was very strong, which made their eyes hurt. They returned to the side and stood in the shade of a tree for a long time before the previous one came. His attitude softened.
After a while, he agreed to take them in, but looked embarrassed.
"The head of the family agrees to your coming. You are lucky today. He has been traveling around major hospitals and pharmacies with his entourage in the past few days. He has a rest today. But... I made a special trip to the side room to talk to the lady through the door. She was silent for a long time.
, suddenly made a fuss, saying that no one would be seen."
"I don't understand." Shan Hai said frankly.
"...She made a fuss for a while and said she didn't dare to see him."
"Well... then we know. It's okay. It's good to see her father."
After getting permission, Dai Luan was the first to rush into the courtyard. Xie Hua's courtyard is very grand, with all kinds of seasonal flowers in bloom. Although no bees and butterflies were seen, the chirping of birds could be heard. Dai Luan
After being refreshed for a while, his face dropped again. It made him feel sad to think that Xie Hualing could only hide in a remote small house and not be able to see the peaceful scenery of late winter and early spring.
Mu Wan asked Shan Hai in a low voice: "When is Ah Luan's birthday?"
"Well...April 28, the middle of the month."
Mu Wan pinched her fingers and made some calculations, then frowned.
