Chapter 46
Everyone in the house was lost in their own thoughts, only Meng Mu noticed that Lu Jian's eyes were fixed on He Song, his little head tilted to the left and right, fully focused.
Isn't it just a transfer of affection?
Meng Mu's mind flashed with the thought, but before he could say it out loud, He saw Huo Song turn around and stand up, and then actually chase after him.
He walked slowly out of the gate and onto the street, just as he was about to take off, when someone grabbed his sleeve.
"Lü Jiāng Niángzi, you..."
I have seen you
“……”
From the moment he was summoned by the talisman, everyone on Mount Tiantai stood up. Lu Jian caught sight of him in the crowd at a glance and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. He was very slender, but not the kind of skinny that Duanmu Ci Yang would mock as "skinny to the bone", rather he had a tall and lean figure with a subtle elegance. Although walking among the crowd, he seemed to have a hint of flying posture. Being from Mount Tiantai, having an extraordinary demeanor, yet he was vastly different from others.
In Yuelu's eyes, He Yue was very steady and stable. In his words and deeds, he always set an example for others at all times. As soon as he came down the mountain, he strictly restrained everyone, and his magical powers were also extremely strong. It can be seen that everyone took him as their leader.
He Jiong is a bit more casual, chatting with others along the way and not paying much attention to Yue's control. He has his own ideas and is more impulsive than others, taking the lead when entering the Sanping Taoist Temple. Although he doesn't seem to fear danger, he also doesn't seem to care about being calm, rushing into the underground palace and throwing him out with one hand. Lu Jian secretly thinks that He Jiong just wants to show off.
There is another one, called He Chuan, who looks quite honest and obediently follows He Yue's arrangements, and hasn't said much.
As for He Song, he has been following He Yue all along. What's strange is that He Yue hasn't given him any separate tasks. If you didn't know better, you'd think He Song was useless. However, when they found the corpse of the elder who had taken his own life, he did pull He Yue back a few steps. It's clear he cares about He Yue, but with other people, he doesn't seem to fit in very well.
It can be confirmed that this person has never seen her, or the human image of him has never appeared in front of herself, but recently Lu Jian's spiritual power has gradually recovered, and she can still sense the unique aura of this person, which belongs to the wind.
She had just heard from Dao Jing and others that the names starting with "He" were all under Xuan Yi. She suddenly remembered that Jiaolong had said that he was Xuan Yi's nineteenth mount, so some of these people with the character "He" were among the first eighteen.
Xuan Yi's subordinate, mount, familiar feeling, wind's breath.
Lu Jian suddenly realized: It turned out that this person was the white crane who had picked up Xuan Yi's brother at You Shan!
When he heard that this unfamiliar girl had seen him before, He Song wasn't surprised. In all these years, he and He Yue had followed their master to many places, and the number of people they had met was countless. Although it was unclear what this girl's true identity was, now that she appeared with Dao Jing Gongzi at the same time, she must have gone through a lot together. Maybe she even went through that difficult period with Gongzi together, and Gongzi's usual character... Ah, never mind. It's rare for her to be sincere towards Gongzi, so he was willing to give her some trust too.
All the more...
He stopped in his tracks and smiled, "What a coincidence, I have something to look for you too!"
"Looking for me???" Lu Jian was startled, his thin phoenix eyes widened to the point where they became single eyelids, and he stuttered: "Y-you, looking for me?"
"Hmm" and Song liked to see others surprised, even more liked to make others delighted, just right today can be achieved, so thinking about the unpleasantness earlier is nothing.
He took the hand holding the deer arrow, and from his bosom he pulled out a small brocade pouch which he placed in her palm. "This was given to me by Master before he went into seclusion, instructing me to hand it over to you when I see you."
"Your... master?" Luoyue felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and for an instant his vision was blurry, with stars dancing wildly before his eyes.
Good heavens! And Shong's master, isn't that Brother Xuan Yi? Lu Jian felt like he couldn't breathe anymore, how could Brother Xuan Yi still remember him?! It was simply unbelievable that this was real!
"What's wrong, why are you crying?" Song Ma looked at Lu Jian's excited and teary eyes, feeling both amused and curious. This girl was so innocent and young, when and how did she meet the master?
"Alright alright, hurry up and take a look"
Lu Jing's hands trembled as he untied the knot of the brocade bag, revealing a long silk ribbon inside with water-drop-shaped gems hanging on both sides, the entire thing a deep crimson color that shone with a soft luster in the sunlight.
"This is... a red hair tie, the beginning of everything."
He patted her shoulder and said softly: "The master has spoken, this is a gift for you, thank you for saving me, now it's back to its rightful owner"
"No need to be polite, no need to be polite, no need to be polite" Lu Jian was overjoyed and hastily put it away in his arms, letting out a satisfied sigh. At this moment, all sorts of past memories flooded his mind, and he felt a mix of emotions.
The serene valley of the mountain, that faint smile, suddenly a battle between gods and demons, in the misty rain of Mount Tai's dawn, a lone figure wandering...
So brief, yet so profound.
I also don't know how he is doing now...
She suddenly remembered the purpose she had been chasing after. There was one thing that she had never had the chance to say, nor did she know who to tell it to. This matter, Dao Jing was also unaware of. But precisely because he was unaware, there was even more need to make things clear.
He was too tall, so she had to pull on his sleeve and stand on tiptoes to reach his ear, whispering: "Is there a girl in pink clothes over there?"
"There... " Tianyai Mountain had few women, but there were still some. Song Xin had a few candidates in mind, but he didn't know what Lu Jian wanted to say, so he temporarily replied: "There are, what's up?"
"Does that girl with a nice voice and beautiful appearance still live on Tiantai Mountain?"
“!!!”
He Song knew who she was talking about now, but this person's affairs were even unknown to himself. Had Lu Jian also seen her before? Or...
For a moment he was lost in thought, but after all, there was too little information, thinking that he still had things to do and it wasn't convenient for him to stay long, so he decided to tell her.
"It's gone"
"Ah!" Lu Jian couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and loosened his sleeves.
"Didn't she come back?"
"Huh?" How did you know all this? Song Bu couldn't help but reevaluate this girl, "Who are you exactly?"
"Ah, I've said it before, I'm Lu Jian." The sunlight was too strong, and Lu Jian squinted his eyes in discomfort as he asked, "Did she come back with you guys or not?"
He Miao thought he didn't understand, and could only honestly shake his head, "No"
"Alright, alright, you can go." Lu Jianxian smiled brightly and took two steps back, waving his hand at him before turning around and running off.
"...What a wonderful spirit!" Song Shi laughed and flew away into the blue sky.
It's the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the afternoon breeze gently sweeps across my face, carrying the fragrance of fresh flowers. Lu Jian Tao is drunk with a deep breath, his face rippling with sweet smiles. Looking at this temporary residence of ancient and simple house, looking at the thick green bricks on the ground, it feels so pleasing to the eye.
She skipped back and forth, humming a little tune from who-knows-where, like a happy little swallow.
"Hmm, taken a liking to him?" Meng Mu leaned against the wall with a sly smile on his face.
Lu Jing stopped in his tracks and gave him a glance. "Scram, don't spout nonsense, I have something to ask him."
"Come on, you're not a kid anymore, it's about time for you to get married. It's nothing shameful to have a crush on a handsome young man. Come on, tell big brother Meng about it."
The second day after Luo Jian arrived at the tea house, He Ya helped her change into a new outfit, and she finally didn't look like a fake little boy anymore. He Ya was skilled with her hands and braided several small, sturdy and elegant pigtails for her. Her hair had grown long, and these pigtails were often played with in her hands over the past few days.
Lu Jing couldn't help but think of his brother Xuan Yi when he heard Meng Mu's teasing, and indeed felt a little embarrassed.
Lowering her head, she played with the tassels on her braids and mumbled unclearly: "You're just talking too much, I was only asking about Mount Tiantai"
"Tiantai Mountain?" Mengmu was somewhat curious, "Do you want to go to Tiantai Mountain with them?"
Although this idea was the first to emerge, he thought about it and felt that it was also right, she seemed to have more reason to stay here than himself. However, for now, he couldn't leave either, so wouldn't they have to pack up together and let Dao Jing take them back? Thinking of this possibility, Meng Mu didn't know why but felt a bit amused.
Lu Jing didn't really think about this issue, he simply felt that he should see Xuan Yi again. Now it seems that the best way to see him again is to accompany Dao Jing together. In that case, Meng Mu's words are not wrong either.
"Wherever Brother Xuan Yi is, I will be there."
"Hmm, don't you remember how I used to accompany you back then?" Meng Mu was slightly hurt.
Lu Jian was surprised, "I didn't forget, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong?" Mengmu didn't know what to say either, anyway it was just very annoying. He held his big knife and looked up at the sky, letting out a sigh.
It turns out that Lu Jian really had something to ask him, and last time he let it pass vaguely, this time he might as well ask clearly.
"I had an impression when I saw you ten years ago, before that I didn't have any feeling about the things around me. After that, not only could I see the scenery around me, but I could also understand the words of the spirits of grass and trees, why is that?"
I don't know
"What's your attitude? Luo Jian pushed him," "Speak properly with you, don't be so listless."
Meng Mu was almost helpless, "Heavenly fate is playing tricks on me, how would I know what's going on?"
"Alright," said Lu Jian, leaning against the wall beside him. "But I was clearly just an ordinary grass spirit, so how did I suddenly turn into a human? I..."
Lu Jian took out a brocade pouch from his bosom and handed it to Meng Mu, "Could it be because of this thing?"
