Soul bound

Before dawn, Qing Wan sent back a letter from Liu Yuesheng, explaining his intention to go.She bought the deserted courtyard next to Liu's house very early, and originally wanted to wait for Liu Yuesheng to get married before leaving, but it turned out to be useful in advance.

It is estimated that after dawn, Liu Yuesheng should have learned her identity from Shen Qingqian.

Qing Wan's eyes wandered back and forth between Lu and Lu for a few times, and said in a flat tone: "That's why I want to hide."

Lu Jiuyuan handed over the received demon to Bai Jingxuan, and shared with Bai Jingxuan the doubts at the time, and the people in Linxuetang would naturally have a solution.

Later, after everything was settled, Lu Jiuyuan and Lu Chilin met Bai Jingxuan by chance, and found out from her mouth that it was the black ghost who told Shen Qingqian that there was someone who could eliminate demons in the painting building. Qing Wan was seriously injured by their hands, but he didn't want to put himself in it in the end.Of course, this is all for later.

The two were determined to rest in Linxuetang for a few days before going to Yongcheng, but they didn't want to hear new news from Wandering Island——

The test situation is advanced.

When he heard the news, Lu Jiuyuan was pulling Lu Chilin to eat in the room.Ever since he couldn't resist hugging Lu Chilin that night, the latter's attitude towards him was a little subtle, he didn't seem to dislike his contact, but he wanted to avoid it frequently.Lu Jiuyuan felt as if he had returned to the time when Wanyuanbao had an accident more than ten years ago, trying his best to make Lu Chilin happy.

That day, he happened to see a vendor buying cakes on the street, thinking about Lu Chi Lin Xi's sweets, so he bought some for him to try.It was at this time that Bai Jingxuan rushed in in a hurry, and slapped his hand on the table after brushing.

"The owner of the Wandering Island sent a letter to each faction a day ago, and the test will be ten days earlier."

Ten days, nearly half a month.

A bad premonition suddenly rose in Lu Jiuyuan's heart.

"Why earlier?"

What happened?Why did the date suddenly change?The wandering island has been secluded from the world for many years, does its behavior have anything to do with the demon cultivators that have appeared many times?

Lu Jiuyuan's intuition is that there is a thin line behind so many things, which is vague and indistinct.

"I've been waiting for so long, but it's only ten days. Who knows why it's so early." Bai Jingxuan complained softly, "The hall master asked the deputy hall to pack up quickly and go to Yongcheng."

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left.

The two left looking at each other.

"Eat another one?" Lu Jiuyuan said.

Lu Chilin raised his eyelids and glanced at him, hesitantly picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake that was left in the food box on the table, and put it to his mouth.He ate very slowly, his cheeks were a little swollen from chewing, and Lu Jiuyuan looked at it intently, feeling a bit like a koi in the pond in his backyard.

"like?"

Lu Chilin ate, but didn't answer.

"If you like it, don't bother with me?" Lu Jiuyuan said softly.Meng Pingchuan's eyes, the corners of which were raised up when he looked at people intently, had a bit of a flirtatious charm.But when he was emotional, the corners of his eyes were pressed down a little, and then filled with three thousand tenderness, as if it could teach people to drown in it.

Lu Chilin replied vaguely, "I haven't."

Lu Jiuyuan smiled softly twice.

Lu Chilin swallowed the last bite of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and raised his head to look at Lu Jiuyuan.

"Meng Pingchuan, why did you follow me, why did you do these things?"

They met by chance, if it wasn't for the incident that happened in the Meng residence, they would not have had any ties.Although Lu Chilin reacted indifferently to most things, he knew his own temperament, and he would never be the kind to make people get close.But Meng Pingchuan showed an unusual acquaintance with him from the very beginning, and wanted to take him on the road by himself, and did a lot of intimate things with him along the way.

Now that he also saw Lou Yunshen, he should have left by himself, but he said he wanted to follow him.Does he really have no purpose?

Lu Chilin was calm on the surface, but only he knew that he was longing for such an answer in his heart.But this answer didn't seem to be what he wanted, and he didn't know why he had such an idea. Maybe it was the wrong person, maybe the wrong timing, or maybe it was the wrong thing.

Lu Jiuyuan's gaze swept across his upper body, tracing his face gently.

"What kind of answer do you want to hear?"

Lu Chilin shook his head and said nothing.

Lu Jiuyuan put his left hand on the table, spread his palm upwards, and hooked his index finger at Lu Chilin: "Give me your hand, with your palm facing me."

Lu Chilin blinked, stared at him for a while without knowing why, put his right hand on it, and spread his palms.

Lv Jiuyuan smiled, tapped the tip of his right index finger on the palm of his hand, and drew a short stroke.

"Itchy..." Lu Chilin almost withdrew his hand.

Lu Jiuyuan quickly grabbed Lu Chilin's hand, and made a second and third stroke with his right hand.

He also did this movement with Lu Chilin in the cave of the Changshan School, but at that time he played around with three points of sincerity and seven points of sincerity, and the movements were light and slow, and the tactile sensation he brought was far inferior to today's.

Feeling Lu Jiuyuan's temperature, Lu Chilin felt as if a fire had ignited in his heart, and it seemed as if a feather was scratching his chest.He had never felt like this before, it was so strange, it made him feel overwhelmed.

"That's my answer."

Lu Chilin frowned, he didn't understand what three strokes of his hand were the answer.

"Do you know what Qing Wan said?"

He didn't know why he asked this question, but he suddenly thought of it, so he asked it.

"What? She talked a lot." Lu Jiuyuan faintly sensed what Lu Chilin meant, but he didn't point it out.He couldn't help feeling a bit of malice in his heart, he couldn't suppress the malice, and couldn't help wanting to tease him.

Lu Chilin lowered his eyes, staring at the intricate patterns carved on the table base: "She said that she never regrets after nine deaths. Have you ever known it?"

He wanted to ask, have you ever met the person who made you die without regret.

He also wanted to ask, have you ever liked someone.

"Maybe I know it." Lu Jiuyuan's voice was low and hoarse, like a bard, "Many years ago, there was such a person. I didn't know his mind before, and misunderstood him. But later, he He gave his life to save me—no, I should have killed him, I didn't think he was trying to save me."

Lu Chilin listened quietly, feeling astringent in his heart for no reason, like a first-ripe green plum accidentally touching the tip of his tongue, all kinds of sourness and bitterness melted in his mouth.It was like falling into a boulder, and the force of a thousand catties was pressing on his chest, and he couldn't move it no matter what, it was heavy and stuffy.

So uncomfortable.

But he didn't know why he was suffering.

He obviously didn't know that person, but he felt that there was a connection between him and him.It was as if he had experienced those things himself.

"At that time, he must have died without regret."

Lu Jiuyuan suddenly wanted to touch Lu Chilin's face, to hold him in his arms, to breathe with him, to imprint himself in his soul so that he would never forget it.He wanted to explain to Lu Chilin all the ups and downs of so many years and the sudden realization later.

His first thought was to make amends.But the moment he saw Lu Chilin, he realized it was far from that.It's not enough to simply make up for it, his obsession with Lu Chilin is far more intense than he thought.What he wants is to be able to go back to that year, when he led Lu Chilin to the top of Mount Hua step by step, watching thousands of mountains covered with snow, and enjoying the tranquility of the years.

His throat moved, and he withdrew his hand.

"Chi Lin asked me 'why'." Lu Jiuyuan paused, his eyes flickering, and his gaze was fixed on Lu Chi Lin leisurely, "Because I have unreasonable thoughts about Chi Lin, Chi Lin still doesn't know as well."

If it were someone else, they would not have blushed at this time, but they would have blushed at a loss, or stood up and cursed "shameless".But Lu Chilin still replied unhappily: "Oh."

Lu Jiuyuan thought he didn't understand.

In fact, he understands.Speaking of this, even an ignorant person like him should understand what Lv Jiuyuan meant.

There was already a huge wave in his heart, as if his whole body was about to fall into the river and drown in it.

He wasn't angry, and he didn't know how to respond.

Thousands of thoughts can only be merged into such a simple word.

Seeing Lu Jiuyuan's slightly disappointed expression, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something more.

Finally, he shut his mouth and kept silent.

Lu Jiuyuan soon regained his composure, he thought about Lu Chilin's temperament, and he was able to tell him so much because Qing Wan was in full bloom, so he didn't expect too much.

So, he changed the subject: "Let's pack up our things and prepare to go to Yongcheng."

"it is good."
