The man wearing purple brocade clothes walked out with graceful and unhurried steps.
When he saw Qingjiu, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and his tone was cool and gentle as he said to Qingjiu:
"Miss Qingjiu, I heard from father that you are going to the Southern Region and are willing to help the Long family. Long Yu thanks the girl here."
At this time, Qingjiu was sitting under the tree, letting go of his hand between his brows, and looking sideways at him.
"Are you okay?"
Her voice sounded a little contented, and her slightly narrowed eyes were as lazy and open as a resting leopard.
After Long Yu walked out of the room, a maid walked out from behind him and quickly put a black coat on Long Yu's body.
Long Yu, on the other hand, didn't even look back, his dark eyes locked tightly on Qingjiu and said:
"It's nothing serious, just some old problems. Don't worry."
Qingjiu supported her head with her hands, and the scattered sunlight filtered through the leaves and fell on her face.
The warm wind blew through her hair, and she had a smile on her face, but it was warmer than the sun, but...
"I'm not worried, I just asked casually."
Qingjiu's words were merciless and without any polite words. After finishing the sentence, he said to Long Yu with a half-smile.
"I heard that boy just now said you wanted to thank me? How are you going to thank me?"
Long Yu, who was on the opposite side, obviously didn't expect Qingjiu to speak so directly. He was silent for a while and looked at Qingjiu with calm eyes.
"...What does Qingjiu girl want?"
Qingjiu raised his eyebrows high after listening to his words, put away the hand supporting his head, stood up and walked towards Long Yu.
"You can give me whatever I want?"
"Do your best." Long Yu looked at her and said in a clear tone.
Listening to his words, Qingjiu's eyes moved, and the gurgling smile on his face seemed to blend into the gentle breeze.
"I want you……"
Qingjiu paused several times while speaking, and Long Yu's eyes on the opposite side changed slightly and his hand lowered in Dahui tightened slightly.
But the expression on his face is indeed still cold.
Qingjiu didn't seem to care what Long Yu was thinking. He pinched a leaf that fell from his head, looked down at it, and then said softly:
"Give me a request."
When the green wine was under the wine, Long Yu's hand hanging in the big bow moved again.
"Girl, please tell me."
It was as low and mellow as Jiuhua wine, and the heart-stirring voice was filled with green wine.
But Qingjiu showed a nonchalant expression after he agreed. She yawned and waved her hand to Long Yu. Just like yesterday, she turned around and left.
"We'll wait until we get to the Southern Territory. If nothing happens, I'll go back first."
Just when Qingjiu turned around, Long Yu behind him shouted softly to Qingjiu.
"Girl, wait a minute, Ayo, go and take some snacks that father brought to Miss Qingjiu."
Qingjiu turned his head and looked at him with doubt in his eyes.
"?"
Seeing Qingjiu's confused eyes, Long Yu smiled and explained to Qingjiu.
"I'm too weak to eat these things. Please help Miss Qingjiu."
Qingjiu took the thing from the hand of the maid who put on Long Yu's coat, smiled and said with her eyes widened:
"Okay, just do it reluctantly."
So Qingjiu went back with a bunch of things he had never seen before.
But the moment he turned around, there was a hint of emotion in his eyes that others couldn't understand.
At the end, she lowered her eyes and looked at the thing in her hand, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Next day's time
After receiving the notice from the maid, Qingjiu walked towards the gate of Long Mansion with a big package on her back. When she just walked to the gate, she saw people standing outside.
The first person to notice Qingjiu was Wangfan. He turned around and looked at Qingjiu and asked with a soft tone and a smile:
"Um... Qingjiu girl, you... brought a lot of things."
Qingjiu looked at what he was pointing at and nodded:
"You can't see it now."
Qingjiu said as he placed the package in the room.
Wangfan, who wanted to say something else, could only shake his head.
The Qingjiu girl really chokes up every time and makes me unable to answer the conversation.
At this moment, Long Ao walked out from behind them. After looking at the person, he raised his voice and said.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get ready to go. The people from the escort agency will be at the door and will introduce you to them later."
So everyone nodded and followed them forward. After walking a few steps, they saw a carriage of twenty or thirty people on the right side of Long Mansion.
Then Long Ao walked up to him, pointed at one person and introduced him to Wang Fan and others.
"This is Lan Yong'an, the head of the escort agency."
"Brother Lan, this is Qingjiu, whom you have met, and the others are Wangfan..."
After a quick introduction, both parties nodded.
After Long Ao's voice fell, Lan Yongan continued.
"The road is dangerous, and our escorts will protect everyone's safety, but if there is really danger, all fellow Taoists are asked to help."
Shen Yangchun is a mature and steady person, full of contradictions between honesty and shrewdness, which makes people unable to help but pay attention to him.
"Blue Dart is too humble, we will do our best."
Lan Yong'an saw Qingjiu and the others nodding along with Shen Yangchun's words, so he replied.
"Okay, everyone, get ready to go."
When several people on this side mounted their horses and prepared to take action, Long Ao walked over to Qingjiu at some point.
"Miss Qingjiu, if you please walk near my dog's carriage, he has a cold personality and I'm afraid that others will follow him..."
Qingjiu had just turned on his horse, grabbed the reins and was about to leave. After listening to Long Ao's words, he turned to look at the second very luxurious carriage.
I was confused for a moment, but still nodded and said softly:
"Huh? Okay, Master Long, don't worry, I will protect Master Long."
Long Ao nodded to Qingjiu and thanked him.
"Thank you very much!"
The group of people here walked toward the outside of the city in a mighty manner.
Qingjiu followed Long Yu's carriage with a bamboo hat and looked at the envious eyes of passers-by on the road through the gauze.
As time went by, the sun became more and more intense. Just when Qingjiu was riding his horse and howling in the west wind, the curtain of the carriage beside him was lifted.
"Girl Qingjiu, the sun is too bright outside. You're a girl, why don't you go hide in the carriage?"
Long Yu was still dressed in purple, but his robes had obviously changed to a different style, and he was wearing a white cloak. His eyes fell on Qingjiu.
Qingjiu slightly grasped the horse's rope, stabilized the speed, and spoke softly.
"No need, Master Long, please have a good rest."
Long Yu was silent for a moment, and then lowered the curtain without saying anything.
I don’t know how long we have been walking, but I only know that the time has reached noon.
At this time, the person walking at the front came with news.
"Attention everyone, there is a small teahouse ahead. You can take a rest."
The convoy slowly stopped, and Qingjiu also fell off the horse.
A cold voice sounded from the carriage next to him, and then a white and skeletal hand stretched out from the carriage.
"Help me down."
Qingjiu turned his head and looked at the empty carriage beside him. After a moment of hesitation, he reached out and held the hand, his red lips twitching slightly.
"careful."
With the help of his strength, Long Yu, wearing purple clothes and a white cape, walked out of the carriage, his eyebrows as bright as the moon, as cold as dust.
But there was a bit of surprise in the voice.
"why you."
"Your servant seems to have been called elsewhere." Qingjiu said after holding his hand and helping him out of the carriage.
"Thank you." Long Yu lowered his eyes and said.
"Master Long still needs help?"
"Better trouble the green wine girl."
"Master Yu, you are in good health after this journey. Let me help you."
At this time, a cute voice sounded. Qingjiu looked back and saw that Qian Xing'er had already squeezed in beside them.
