Mr. Cat

Chapter 72

Intensive drums beat on the umbrella, Louis opened his eyes, and fell into a dream.

"Are you awake?" Lu Wu's concerned voice rang in his ears, and Louis slowly calmed down, gathering the memories of the past under the osmanthus tree in his heart.He moved his fingers and groped to hold Lu Wu's warm palm.

Louie's voice was dry, even a bit harsh: "Mr. Cat, I dreamed about the things before Suzaku died."

The first number one scholar in the Lu family was Lu Man, whose style name was Keji, whose name was Jicui Jushi, and who also called himself Osmanthus Weng. Since he became the number one scholar, his official career has been smooth sailing, and he can be said to have risen steadily.

Louis is not interested in history, and has never really understood his ancestor who created the world.He climbed up from humble beginnings, got the help of noble people, studied hard, and passed the exam in the capital in one breath, winning the first prize.At the Luming Banquet, the handsome No. [-] scholar was favored by the prime minister Zheng Mian, and he ostentatiously betrothed his daughter to him.

She is ostentatious, well-read, knowledgeable and gentle, and often advises Lu Man how to become an official. Lu Man regards her as a treasure. After marriage, Lu Man only has such a wife, no concubine or housekeeper.They have both sons and daughters, and their husband and wife life is extremely happy, and they will grow old together.Even looking at it now, it is an out-and-out winner in life.

Lu Man once said that there are only two favorites in his life, one is swagger and the other is still swagger.

Lu Mann has a strange hobby, which is to serve sweet-scented osmanthus.The swagger he mentioned refers to his beloved wife, and the other refers to sweet-scented osmanthus, which is also called swagger.Even if he went to court, he would always carry a small laurel branch in his arms, and even if the emperor asked him, he would not say the reason.

When he was old, he didn't like to exercise power, so he would order gold and osmanthus at home when he had nothing to do.In the year when he was the number one scholar, the young emperor had only ascended the throne. Now that Lu Mann had passed his sixtieth birthday, the emperor had also aged together. Decades of love between the emperor and his ministers made the emperor very tolerant of this old man who was determined to provide for the elderly. He was given a vain position as a grand teacher, and his salary was not missed. He was occasionally invited into the palace to discuss political affairs, but he was not as busy as he was when he was young.

Lu Mann was able to spend more time on the osmanthus tree, and even wrote several osmanthus poems in praise of the osmanthus.In autumn, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus can be smelled in and out of the capital, and Lu Mann got the nickname of "Osmanthus fragrans" because of this.

A hundred years later, Lu Man's grandchildren brought his ashes back to their hometown together with the precious osmanthus tree, and planted them in Guangdu.

Closing the history book, Louis felt that the name of swagger seemed familiar.Swagger, another name for the light on the Big Dipper, is one of the two stars at the end of the dipper, one of which is a spear, swagger.

The new year has turned, and it is the first month, and the spring rain is falling in Guangdu, which is much gentler than the torrential rain in the dream.When Shan Shi gave the seal and osmanthus branches to Lu Mann, he didn't expect that Lu Mann would really win the laurel in the Toad Palace. He just didn't want the osmanthus tree and those books to fall into the underworld forever until they rotted like him.

The land protected by osmanthus twigs is carefree.It was no coincidence that he could be reincarnated. Victor, who was taken in by Sima Zhi, and Lu Man, who had passed away as a gift to the book, were somehow brought together, and only then did he, Louis, be born.

Lu Wu turned into a white tiger, laying down on the carpet to take a nap, flicking his thick and powerful tail, the nine tails followed him everywhere.Louis lay on it, pillowed on its soft belly, and unconsciously stroked the white hair on Lu Wu's body.Lu Wu felt hot all over from his touch, his tail hit Louis on the back of his hand lightly, and said in a muffled voice, "Don't touch it."

Louis followed the good example, put away his hands and got up and sat cross-legged.

"Let's go to Aliu's house," Louis said, "we have to figure this out." Louis was always quick and decisive, changing clothes, when he was changing shoes at the entrance, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.Louis was puzzled, and he glanced at the cat's eye.

Standing outside the door was a woman with black hair and white clothes. Her long jet-black hair was rolled up, and a pocket white umbrella was stuck in her hair, revealing a beautiful swan-like back neck, which looked classical and elegant.

"Xue Ling?" Louis opened the door, extremely surprised by Xue Ling's arrival.

Xue Ling's eyes lit up, and she bowed slightly: "I'm here to return your Buddhist bell, General." She lowered her eyes, took out the Buddhist bell from her sleeve, held it in one hand, and handed it to Louis respectfully.

After Louis took it, he asked in confusion, "Is there a way to suppress your coldness?"

Xue Ling raised her head, her brows stretched out, but she was even more beautiful than the melancholy look with frowning eyebrows before: "Yes." She laughed, "Yun Zhongjun turned me into a mortal, so I can be reincarnated like a mortal."

"Don't you regret it?"

"General, this concubine is very envious of mortals," Xue Ling said softly, her slender eyelashes were half down, covering her dark eyes, "Since I was born, I can only wander in the underworld all day long, and I have done it for Lord Jiuyin." A lot of evil."

She looked up at Louis, with a smile and tears in her eyes: "The general hasn't remembered the past, but I know it well. You have suffered so much because of my role as a minion. Mr. Weichen said, This concubine once helped you escape from birth, but it also caused you to suffer 500 years of torture in the underworld, and also caused Xie Liusheng to be born by accident, so you should be out of your wits."

Louis was stunned on the spot, he could only watch Xue Ling's lips opening and closing, he said anxiously: "You, you, if you lose your soul, what will Chen Yixian do? Can you still come back to life?"

"The merits and demerits don't equal each other," Xue Ling said, "The meeting between Chen Yixian and me was just a coincidence, and Xue Wuxia didn't exist, he has a better marriage waiting for him."

Louis trembled all over, and suddenly found white snow accumulated on his shoulders. Looking around, he didn't know when he came to the top of the snow mountain, and all he could see was the surging sea of ​​clouds.The clothes on Xue Ling's body had turned into plain white deep clothes, and her long jet-black hair fluttered in the wind, starting from the hem of her skirt, and gradually turning into flying snow.

"The evil I did made me lose my soul, and the kindness I did gave me a glimmer of hope for rebirth," Xue Ling said flatly, as the tears flowed from her eyes, they turned into fine snow.The scene of Xue Ling running towards Jianmu in the sea of ​​amaryllis with Xue Ling on his back flashed before Louis' eyes. He was startled, and reached out to hold Xue Ling's hand, but he couldn't touch anything.

Xue Ling's sleeves turned into flying snow, which gradually spread upwards. She said with tears: "General, thank you, and please give him a word from Yixian, I'm sorry." Actually, I just regarded him as someone like you. Brother, but because he didn't understand feelings, he made him mistakenly express affection.

A gust of wind blew in, and Xueling completely turned into flying snow, soaring upwards, flying to the sky, scattered in the thousands of snow-capped mountains and thousands of miles of clouds, and there was no trace of Xueling related to it.

"Shering."

"Mr. Weichen."

"I know you are kind by nature. Take Zhi to Jianmu. Have you seen that tree? Get under that tree and you will be free."

"Do you believe in concubines?"

"Do you think you are worthy of my trust? Stop talking nonsense, Zhi's soul can't last long, freeze him, take him to Jianmu, there is a white tiger there, he will help you open the passage to the world .”

"I want to come back with you."

"Silly girl, maybe I will die with Lord Jiuyin this time, he will wake up soon, you go!"

Countless endless conversations poured into his mind, Louis staggered and almost fell.There was no one outside the door, only the Buddha bell on the ground announced that Xue Ling had indeed been here.The white tiger paced over, picked up the Buddha bell, and carefully placed it in Louis' hands. His fluffy head leaned over and gently licked his cold cheeks, comforting him silently.

"I just..." Louie muttered.

"Xueling is gone," Lu Wu said, "it is her greatest wish to come to see you and return the Buddhist bell. If the wish is fulfilled, she will naturally be dissipated. The snow mountain you saw just now is the Kunlun Ruins, which is the safest place for her. The body turns into an illusion, and the soul turns into Feixue."

"That's why Ah Liu woke up? Because Xue Ling is gone, naturally the soul cannot continue to be frozen?" Louis touched his chest, still unable to recover from what he had just seen with his own eyes.

Xue Ling said that he had done too many evils, which caused him to suffer 500 years of torture in the Underworld, and also gave birth to Xie Liusheng.He faintly touched the clues of the truth, but did not dare to confirm it.Louis remembered his original intention, rushed to the door, and went to the floor where Xie Liusheng was huddled.

When he arrived at Xie Liusheng's house, Louis' heart was beating wildly, and Lu Wu followed him, turning into a raccoon cat and squatting on his shoulder.Louis clenched the Buddha bell in his hand and knocked on the door of Xie Liusheng's house.

He heard the footsteps getting louder and creaking, the door opened, and behind the door was Xie Liusheng's surprised face.

"Mr. Yi?"

Xie Liu looked good when he was angry, much rosier than before, and his eyes were full of energy.He hurriedly welcomed Louis into his home, and said guiltily, "I troubled Mr. Yi before, and he took care of me and comforted my dad."

"It's easy," Louis said, staring at him, "Are you still dizzy and have a fever?"

Xie Liusheng was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said with a smile: "That's not true, it suddenly got better, but," his expression suddenly became sad, "Ah Hua still hasn't come back, my dad told me that Ah Hua flew away by herself. "He took out a box of Zhuyeqing, rinsed a cup of tea, and finished it in one go.

"Mr. Yi." He handed the teacup to Louis.

The room is not too warm, and a cup of boiling hot tea can make people feel warm.Louis held the teacup, hesitating to speak.

"What's the matter?" Xie Liusheng raised his eyes in doubt, "Mr. Yi has something on his mind?"

"Aliu, I actually know where Ah Hua has gone." Just as Louis was about to speak, he suddenly heard a shrill meow, and the next second, the fat gray raccoon rushed over. It fell to the ground with an earth-shattering bang.
