Li Mo smiled like a pear blossom for the first time, and said sweetly, "We didn't wait that long. On the contrary, Senior Brother Su Xun, you are not in good health. You need to walk slowly. We were all worried that you might get into trouble on the way because you were in a hurry. That would be bad."

Li Mo's words were very caring and warm, while Mu Xuzhen looked straight ahead without looking away, as if Li Mo's sharp words towards Su Xun had never happened.

"is it?"

"Of course..." The two people looked at each other with bright smiles, and people around them couldn't help but look sideways. Green willows, bright moon, small bridge, river lights, a pair of golden boy and jade girl facing each other, it was an extremely beautiful scenery.

Suddenly a voice interrupted: "Brother Su Xun, won't you introduce us? This is the first time we have met."

Li Mo and Su Xun looked back upon hearing this. The person who had just spoken was Si Xiaoxiao, who was about eleven or twelve years old, sweet and beautiful like a delicate white peony covered with dew. The slightly plump boy standing aside, envious of the food on the stall, was Si Renxuan, who was about twelve or thirteen years old. Su Xun introduced the two to Li Mo and Mu Xuzhen, and the four of them greeted each other.

Si Renxuan said: "Let's go to a delicious restaurant and have a big meal first."

"Okay, okay." Si Xiaoxiao agreed, and the others had no objection.

Li Mo is the youngest, so everyone takes special care of her. Si Xiaoxiao holds her hand and looks around at the toys that interest the children. Si Renxuan interrupts them with great interest, while Su Xun and Mu Xuzhen walk slowly behind them.

Li Mo was not very interested in those little gadgets, but she couldn't deviate too much from the inherent innocence of a five-year-old child. Not to mention, Su Xun, who looked like a silver fox next to her, would definitely become suspicious when he saw that she was acting strangely, which forced her to cheer up and follow Si Xiaoxiao to visit one stall after another.

As long as Li Mo is willing, she is very good at coaxing people, and it is no problem to coax Si Xiaoxiao into being overjoyed. She selected a string of pearl flower jewelry for Si Xiaoxiao, saying that this one is beautiful, and that this one is very suitable for her. As long as she puts it on, she is simply the most beautiful one in the Wentian Sect, and no one can beat her. Si Xiaoxiao was coaxed to lower her head and smile, shyly saying no, but the smile on her face was more beautiful than the flower, and even the hostility she had towards Li Mo, a potential rival in love, disappeared immediately.

Si Renxuan was very good at choosing food. He went to the best restaurant on the street and ordered a large table full of dishes. Although Su Xun, Mu Xuzhen and Mu Limo had already started fasting and no longer ate worldly food, they also ate a few bites with the two siblings. During the meal, Limo praised the dishes ordered by Si Renxuan. Su Xun even commented on the deliciousness of several dishes. Si Renxuan nodded repeatedly and his eyes became brighter as he listened, as if he wished to make Su Xun and Li Mo their confidants.

Mu Xuzhen said very little on the side. Everyone was used to his cold demeanor, similar to Tian Jianzi, and didn't care at all.

Si Xiaoxiao sat nearby and interrupted from time to time, especially when Su Xun was talking about something, she was particularly excited. Even if she couldn't say anything, she was listening very carefully. Li Mo wanted to laugh when he saw this. It was hard to say whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for a little white rabbit to fall in love with a silver fox.

As the teenagers were not allowed to drink alcohol, they ordered sweet fruit juice, Su Xun drank tea, and Si Renxuan ordered ice water for Mu Xuzhen, saying with a smile, "Ice water should be drunk with ice cubes." Hearing this, everyone laughed, and Mu Xuzhen shook his head helplessly, blushing slightly and smiling. Li Mo quickly tried to smooth things over.

In the middle of the night, the moon was swaying, and shadows of people were everywhere. After having a good meal and a good drink, the young men and women slowly followed the crowd and walked towards the moon. Li Mo listened to the hustle and bustle of people around her and smelled the fragrance of flowers in the night. Suddenly, someone touched her arm. She turned around and saw Mu Xuzhen holding a red lotus lantern in front of her and said, "Here, take it."

She was stunned, and saw Si Xiaoxiao in front of her also given a peony lantern by Su Xun, and she was taking it with a blushing face.

"For me?"

"Yes." Mu Xuzhen replied: "Other senior brothers send gifts, I am your senior brother, so I will send you one too."

Li Mo chuckled when she heard that. This was exactly what Mu Xu would answer. He was so serious and yet so cute.

She took it. The red lotus was extremely bright, with exquisite patterns engraved on it, and the wick was burning under the moonlight.

"Oh, look, they are mandarin ducks. There is a pair of mandarin ducks in the water..."

Someone called out softly in front of them, and everyone got excited. The young boys and girls who came out to play on the full moon night all had their youthful thoughts and some emotional entanglements with the people around them. After hearing this, they all rushed over, even Si Xiaoxiao. She blushed and said to Su Xun, "Brother Su Xun, let's go and take a look together."

Li Mo had no interest in this, so she turned around and walked in the opposite direction, but Si Xiaoxiao pulled her hand and asked her to squeeze over there... Just as she was pulling with Si Xiaoxiao, she suddenly heard a sound "dong-dong-dong". The sound seemed to be far away and near, but it lingered in her ears for a long time, as if it came from the ringing of an ancient bell -

Her expression changed slightly, and she looked at Si Xiaoxiao, "Did you hear it just now?"

Si Xiaoxiao was surprised: "What did you hear? Did you just say mandarin ducks?"

"Didn't you hear the bell sound?" Li Mo had a strange expression on his face and confirmed it again, "It was that kind of faint bell sound, like... like, the ancient bell in the Buddhist temple..."

"Buddhist temple?" Si Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "This is at the foot of the mountain of Wentian Sect. How dare the Buddhists come to our area? Junior Sister Mu is not confused..."

"What's wrong?" Mu Xuzhen walked closer to Li Mo and asked with concern.

"Didn't you hear the bells?"

Mu Xuzhen was silent for a moment, he thought carefully, and then shook his head.

"Junior Sister Limo, why don't you tell us in detail where the sound came from? We can follow the trail to investigate..." Su Xun also came over and said seriously, "We didn't hear any Buddhist temple bells, and there are no Buddhist temples near the Wentian Sect, let alone ringing bells in the middle of the night..."

Su Xun looked thoughtful: "There must be something strange about this..."

"..."

Li Mo had a complicated expression. The sound of the bell seemed to be far and near, and it was hard to tell. Besides her, even Mu Xuzhen Suxun, who was at a high level of cultivation, did not hear the sound, let alone notice anything unusual. She herself was also very confused... She had a feeling that the sound of the ancient temple seemed to be coming from the depths of her mind, and it brought her a tremor that shook her soul...

Weird, very weird.

Mu Xuzhen pinched his fingers, and a spiritual light came from the top of Li Mo Tian, ​​covering her whole body. He closed his eyes to investigate, shook his head for a while, and said, "There is nothing unusual."

"Then do you want to..." Su Xun said.

"No need," Li Mo suddenly said, pretending to smile casually, "Maybe I didn't sleep well yesterday, so I feel a little listless. Never mind, let's continue to enjoy the moon. Don't let this little thing ruin everyone's mood tonight."

She didn't want to get to the bottom of it. If Su Xun intervened and asked the sect leader Qinghua Zhenjun or someone like him to examine her body and look into her spiritual consciousness, she would have many secrets. Moreover, she was born in the devil's way in her previous life, so if they investigated her, she wouldn't be able to withstand a deeper investigation. To be on the safe side, she just wanted to pretend that nothing had happened and just cover it up.

"Okay." Su Xun smiled, followed Li Mo's wishes, and said nothing more.
