In the Supreme Sect, the night is deep and everything is silent.
The remaining wine is empty and the candle is extinguished.
The three of them got up, packed up their things, and went back to their respective rooms. They were drunk today and will have to continue practicing tomorrow.
Yuan Ye was halfway through when he suddenly felt worried, "Tell me, if Jinxuan goes back like this, what if the spy discovers something? Is there any danger?"
Yan Qing and his room were on the left and right, and they heard it from a distance, "There are senior brothers and uncles, isn't it?"
Yuan Ye turned around as he returned to the house, "I'll go take a look."
There is a small courtyard on the mountainside of Liangyifeng. Outside the courtyard door are blooming mountain flowers and dots of fireflies, like a misty dream floating in the air on a summer night.
When Ni Jinxuan landed in front of the yard, she saw what seemed to be a hanging lamp at the door.
She subconsciously took a step back and saw clearly a person squatting at her door.
The young man straightened up suddenly, and the mellow moonlight lamp was raised into the air. With the light of the glazed lamp, Ni Jinxuan could clearly see the person waiting for him.
The young man changed into a plain white robe with red piping, setting off a face with red lips and white teeth. The radiance softened the young man's outline, forcing him to appear innocent and harmless.
Qi Zhen was carrying a glazed moon-hugging rabbit lantern, and when he saw Ni Jinxuan coming back, he smiled, like an angel welcoming people to ascend, "Senior sister, you are back!"
His eyes were full of surprise as he walked towards Ni Jinxuan.
"What are you waiting for me for?" Ni Jinxuan was a little surprised. Qi Zhen was arranged to live between the eldest brother's cave and the master's cave, which was not supposed to be on the mountainside.
When Qi Zhen heard this, his crow-feather eyelashes trembled slightly, "I want to give Senior Sister a gift."
"As winter passes, the ice rabbit lanterns will melt away, but the glazed rabbit lanterns will never melt. Do you like it, senior sister?"
Qi Zhen stretched out his hand and handed the rabbit lantern to Ni Jinxuan, "No matter day or night, spring, summer, autumn or winter, this rabbit lantern can always accompany senior sister."
"My heart is also so bright. I want to follow senior sister forever. Even if I only occupy a small space and bring a little light to senior sister, I will be satisfied."
"I don't expect senior sister to like me. Since I entered the sect, senior sister has been the best and most patient to me. I like to follow senior sister, even if I just look at senior sister, I am very happy."
"I just hope that Senior Sister's eyes can fall on me for a moment. I will wait here forever."
He took another step forward, his voice was low, with an obviously nervous trembling, "Senior sister, this rabbit lantern cost me all the money I saved when I joined the sect. Do you like it?"
There was only a little distance between the two of them. The young man was already tall. He held a lantern and looked at the woman. His twinkling eyes held a soft light of hope. Even the insects and birds in the mountains seemed to have stopped for an instant.
Ni Jinxuan's eyes widened, listening to this cryptic and touching confession, a bunch of thoughts were swirling in her mind.
What does Qi Zhen want to do? What does this mean?
Is there any conspiracy behind this rabbit lantern? Do you want to spy on me? Or is it poisonous? Is there a curse?
No, it was her own master who had been teaching him.
She would only teach him scriptures when she was free. How could this credit be attributed to her?
She is obviously the best to her junior uncle!
Oh, yes, he is an evil spirit. Does this mean that my uncle is in poor health and will melt away after winter?
Ni Jinxuan hesitated for a moment, and Qi Zhen couldn't help but push the Moon-Embracing Rabbit Lantern into Ni Jinxuan's hand, "Senior Sister, there is no need to be burdened, I just think that Senior Sister will like this lantern, I just want Senior Sister to like it, nothing else. .”
Ni Jinxuan didn't want to pick up the rabbit lantern, so she nimbly ran up the tree nearby and said, "What are you spending this money on? Anyway, you didn't break this thing, so it won't affect sales. The shops in Dingjiucheng are very important to our Supreme Sect." Disciple is very caring, you can withdraw directly."
"If you are thin-skinned, I will help you."
"Senior sister, don't you like the lamp I chose for you?" Qi Zhen's eyes turned red.
Ni Jinxuan shook his head first, and Qi Zhen felt happy when he heard the man on the tree continue to say, "But this lamp is of no use to me. I don't need it. It's too bright at night if I put it in the house. Put it in the storage ring." If we go out and find gems in the Golden Palace, it will take up space."
In fact, she likes all kinds of beautiful things, and this lamp is indeed beautiful, but Ni Jinxuan doesn't want to fall into the trap.
Qi Zhen was fine at first, but when he heard about Jin Dian, his fists under his sleeves clenched silently.
What does it mean that there is another golden palace to dig into? There is only one golden palace in the world! He will never be able to build a second golden palace again!
The atmosphere that Qi Zhen had just created was shattered by Ni Jinxuan's neat move and refusal.
He was holding his breath, but his voice was a little frustrated, "I know, I just heard that senior sister likes lamps, so I want to do my best to give senior sister something she likes."
He raised his head, looked at the woman leaning against the tree, and tried to save the situation, "No matter what senior sister thinks, I just want to repay senior sister for her daily care, so senior sister doesn't have to be so burdened."
Ni Jinxuan looked down at the young man's raised face from a high position in the tree. He frowned, his tone of voice was urgent, and there were stars in his eyes, and he looked normal.
She tilted her head, "Okay, you can hang the rabbit lantern on the fence of my yard."
"Qi Zhen, what do you mean by what you just said? What do you want?"
There was hope in Qi Zhen's eyes, and he suddenly said loudly, "I just want to look at Senior Sister and follow Senior Sister forever. Senior Sister is the best person to me in the world. My heart can be learned from the sun and the moon. Just like this glazed lamp, it will never go out." .”
"I...my senior sister Xinyue!"
Qi Zhen stood under the tree, nervous and awkward, waiting for Ni Jinxuan's response.
"Oh no," a voice interrupted, "Junior brother, I have a strong objection to what you said."
Qi Zhen was stunned for a moment. It was Yuan Ye's voice.
Then a tall figure suddenly fell in front of Qi Zhen, like a silent mountain, with a heavy sense of oppression.
Mo Lin held the sword in his arms and looked down at this daring junior brother. The hair on his sides was a bit disheveled, as if he had just been picked up from the bed, and his whole body was full of violence.
"I'm telling you, you kid, why did you force my junior sister up a tree when you didn't go back to the house at night?"
Ni Jinxuan only felt the branches on the side sink, and the tree shadows on the ground trembled. Yuan Ye landed on the tree trunk next to her and made a face at her.
"Why are you here?" She widened her eyes.
"Hey, I watched the stars at night, and then I looked at your face, and I found that you were in trouble, so I came to rescue you. You don't know a good heart." Yuan Ye winked, then pinched his throat and imitated the accent in a low voice. , "Senior sister is the best person to me in the world, I can learn from the sun and the moon~"
Ni Jinxuan's mouth twitched, "You are so disgusting."
The confession scene was completely broken into pieces. Mo Lin easily picked up Qi Zhen and said, "Not to mention that your hair is not even long and your Taoist heart is not strong. You only think about love and love. Just say that you are so late at night." Is it appropriate to do it in front of the girl’s room?”
Seeing that things were in a mess, Qi Zhen simply broke away from Mo Lin and knelt down with a bang, looking firm and pitiful.
"Senior brother, today I am rude to senior sister, but Qi Zhen doesn't think he is at fault. I just want to please senior sister and want to tell my feelings. If senior sister doesn't like me, I will just look at senior sister silently. Is it still in the sect's rules? Can’t we fall in love if we have the same sect?”
"That's not true." Mo Lin nodded and repeated, "If there is no such thing, senior brothers and sisters can do it."
Yuan Ye suddenly interrupted, "Senior brother, this is for your own good. It's not my fault. Senior brother teaches you how to practice day and night, cooks for you, and makes room for you to live in. Why do you think Jinxuan treats you better? What a loss of conscience, I can’t stand it anymore, my senior brother is so sad.”
Mo Lin felt that Yuan Ye's strange words were a bit disgusting, so he decided to fight quickly.
"Forget it, you are young and have a weak mind. It must be because you have less homework and your mind is confused. It seems that I have not trained you enough. Starting tomorrow, you will run a hundred laps according to the schedule of me and your senior brother Yan Qing. Son, swing your sword five thousand times and copy the book ten times."
Mo Lin made the final decision, "Follow me."
