The dance is about to begin, but the protagonist of the party has already quietly escaped.
The girl pulled the boy, facing the cold moonlight, like a bird out of its cage, without any nostalgia for what was behind her...
The struggle on Ye Ming's face flashed across his face, and his heartbeat was no less than at the beginning of the banquet. He knew that he could stop this farce at any time, but his feet still moved because the palm Qing'er held was really strong.
…
Maybe she was very determined to do this. If she stopped, would she lose her courage?
Ye Ming finally made up his mind. He decided to go crazy with the girl tonight, even if he was punished by the teacher in the future...
…
In front of the window on the second floor, the man calmly watched the two figures go away, and an old voice came to his ears.
"City Lord, do you want me to follow you and take a look?"
"..."
"City Lord?"
"No need, Uncle Li, if you follow me, you may let Ye Ming find out."
"This..." The old voice was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Just give your time to these young people. This is what Qing'er has been looking forward to, isn't it?"
The sound stopped coming, and Mu Tao watched with complicated eyes as the two figures completely disappeared...
…
"Qing'er, how long will it take..."
"Hey...are you still there?"
Ye Ming was blindfolded by a piece of cloth. At this time, the girl's hand had been released. She had been told not to use mental power early in the morning. This little girl was so mysterious. What kind of secret place was it?
Without waiting for a response, Ye Ming frowned secretly. If he hadn't felt someone around him, he might have really thought something had happened to Qing'er.
"If you don't answer, then I will take it off."
"three
"two
"one!"
The girl's tie was not strong, and the black silk ribbon slipped off at the slightest touch, and her eyes suddenly filled with soft light.
The light was not dazzling, so I could see the surrounding scene clearly in an instant, and I couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow" in my heart.
I saw clusters of swan feathers blooming all over the ground, extending from under my feet into the mist in the distance. The snow-white petals bloomed in the moonlight, like feathers and white jade. I don’t know if it was due to reflection, one by one.
The flower bones seemed to glow, and the two haloes of snow-white and silver complemented each other... As a result, the entire land was completely white without any color!
It turns out that this is what Qing'er was talking about...
Ye Ming sighed in his heart. He noticed that there was no girl in front of him, but two shadows were reflected on the ground by the moon behind him.
He turned around, wanting to share the surprise in his heart with the girl, but he stopped in the blink of an eye.
"Qing'er, you..."
Ye Ming was stunned, and saw that the girl was crying so hard, but even though the tears kept falling, she still did not reach out to wipe them, she only kept her eyes open, for fear that the person would disappear if she blinked.
"Xiao Mingzi, it's really you!"
The girl's voice was choked with sobs. At this moment, she couldn't bear it anymore and quickly threw herself into the boy's arms, just like she did when she was a child...
With a familiar breath and a familiar look, Mu Qing'er held Ye Ming tightly. At this time, her emotions completely exploded, as if she wanted to vent all her longing and dissatisfaction for the past three years.
"You know, I feel like I'm dreaming since I saw you yesterday! It turns out that you are really back..."
The girl buried her face in Ye Ming's chest, crying and telling how she missed herself when she was alone. Sometimes she would beat her twice with her fists, scolding him for why he hadn't looked for her in the past three years, and why he came back now...
Ye Ming raised and put his hand up and down. After several hesitations, it finally turned into a long silent sigh, and he gently patted the girl's smooth back, as if coaxing a child.
Fortunately, the familiar Qing'er is back again...
Ye Ming thought about it, but for some reason he felt a little lost.
He shook his head and threw away the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, and then said words of comfort to the girl...
Time passed for a long time.
Among the thousands of flowers, the two of them sat on the ground. At this time, Qing'er's mood had stabilized, but there were still tears on her face. Ye Ming wanted to wipe them away, but the girl reached out and opened them.
"I didn't cry!"
With a stubborn look on her face, she turned her head and wiped it secretly with a handkerchief, but then she turned around and met the sight that looked like a smile but not a smile. She blushed and turned her head away again.
Ye Ming smiled, and he asked: "We shouldn't be in Lingdou City, where is this place?"
The girl snorted softly, as if she was not ready to answer.
Ye Ming was a little helpless, "Obviously you brought me here, but you had to blindfold me on the way, but you still refused to tell me when we arrived."
"So?" Mu Qing'er glanced at Ye Ming quietly.
"You have a bad personality! No wonder you can't make friends!" Ye Ming pointed with his hand, as if I finally understood.
The girl was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect him to say such a thing. When she came to her senses, she bit her finger, but she didn't bite it. When she looked up, she saw the man looking at her with a provocative expression.
So the more I thought about it, the angrier I became!
"Ah... stinky Ye Ming! How dare you say that to me, I will fight with you..."
The fight between the two lasted for a while, until everything had been forgotten, and the girl leaned on Ye Ming's shoulder, panting.
"Xiao Mingzi, have you seen that pool?"
Ye Ming followed her finger and saw that there was indeed a pool not far away, so he asked: "What's wrong?"
But I heard the girl pointing to the small pool and saying: "That's called Shuangyuetan, but I prefer to call it Yueyuetan. This is the place Grandpa Li told me. I come here once every month."
"Why is it called Yueyuetan?" Ye Ming keenly discovered the key point.
"Because... oh, you are so stupid! Don't you even know how to read?"
Mu Qing'er patted the shoulder next to her, as if she didn't want to explain to this idiot. This person was really hopelessly stupid!
Ye Ming didn't understand it at first, but he didn't realize it until he made some gestures with his fingers on the ground, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
He then asked: "Then why is it called Shuangyuetan again?"
"Because there are two moons, but it's a pity that you can't see them tonight."
"Two moons?"
"Yes, on the 15th and 16th of every month, at the alternation of Zi and Hai, there will be another moon reflected on the pool over there, one in the sky and one on the ground. It looks like there are two. It's amazing!
Today is the last day. I wanted to take you to see it, but unfortunately I missed the time..."
There was a lot of regret in the girl's tone, and towards the end she muttered, "It's all your fault," as if she was complaining.
That’s how it turns out…
But Ye Ming didn't feel sorry. He thought that today's harvest was enough, so he asked again: "What's going on with the flowers here? I heard that Swan Feather seems to be difficult to raise. Did you plant them too?"
Mu Qing'er rolled her eyes at him, but still explained: "How can I have that ability? I heard from Grandpa Li that this place was planted by my father when he was young, and there were formations around it for protection. I didn't expect that it hadn't been damaged after so many years.
It was destroyed, so it was treated as a secret base by me."
Ye Ming understood that there was no one in the royal family who didn't like this flower, otherwise they wouldn't use it as a symbol. The teacher planted so many, and the answer was ready to come out, so he stopped asking and just admired the flowers quietly.
On the contrary, the girl stood up after a while, ran to the flowers, and pulled out a furry dumpling.
"Okay! Wangcai, how dare you sneak in here without my permission."
The cat was grabbed by the back of the neck obediently, its big blue eyes full of innocence.
Ye Ming smiled. He had noticed the cat peeping from a distance early in the morning. It seemed that it had been promoted to a soul beast for ten years. Why was it still so stupid? And not only did it not get bigger, it also gained a lot of weight...
The fog gradually became thicker and it was already late at night.
"Xiao Mingzi, you know, when the swan feathers bloom every year, it's really beautiful. The petals are floating in the air, just like snow. I really want you to see it..."
"Then we'll come back then."
"Okay, then you must not break the promise!"
"OK."
Ye Ming carried the girl on his back, followed by a cat, and gradually walked to the edge of the fog.
After being together for so long, I forgot that this girl is still an ordinary person. She was dressed up tonight and was wearing inconvenient dress shoes. After all the hard work, her feet were already covered with scars, so she took on the role of a coolie.
I used my mental power to find the exit of the mist. After walking out, I discovered that this was actually a small valley, and the Moon Moon Lake did not actually occupy a large area. It was just because of the mist that it created the illusion of mountains and plains.
If you think about it carefully, it seems very reasonable. If the area is really large, how can it not be discovered even if it is covered by a formation?
"By the way, how did we get here?"
After walking for a while, Ye Ming realized that this place was still some distance away from Lingdou City. It was strange. When I first came here, I remembered that it didn't take much time. I didn't even know when to leave the city?
The girl's long hair was spread out. She seemed a little tired. She pressed her face tightly against the boy's back and whispered:
"It's a secret."
The cat meowed behind him, and it seemed to want to climb on the boy, but it never succeeded.
Won't you tell me?
Ye Ming smiled, and he did not hesitate. Since it is a secret, it will be revealed one day...
