Scroll of Seeking Jue in the Realm of the Ten Directions

The days passed quickly, and it was already the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. On that day, Jue Mingjun told Xiao Yuan not to tell Zhan Linfeng that he was poisoned, and he treated Zhan Linfeng for the poison, so Zhan Linfeng always thought that he was just too tired will faint.

The second day is New Year's Eve. According to the usual practice, Furui Building will be closed from New Year's Eve to the third day of the Lunar New Year. Zhan Linfeng urged the staff to tidy up Furui Building and send out all the goods that should be distributed. The cooperation also went smoothly.

As soon as he finished his work, he went upstairs to Jingdian Pavilion. Mr. Jue Ming was calculating the last account handed in downstairs. When he saw Zhan Linfeng standing by the door and staring at him, he waved and smiled: "Stand What are you doing there? Come in."

Zhan Lin Feng Shi ran into the door, closed the door, sat in the middle of the chair and said: "Today I sent the guys home to celebrate the New Year."

Lord Jue Ming kept his head buried in the accounts, "I know, Bai Shan has bid farewell to me."

Zhan Linfeng hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Mingjue, do you have somewhere to go?" When Zhan Linfeng asked this question, he felt a little uneasy, he was afraid of hearing Jun Mingjun answer "yes". Words, but thinking in his heart, if Mingjue said there is a place to go, he should think of a way to keep him.During this period of getting along day and night, Zhan Linfeng also understood his feelings for the person in front of him very well. Since Mingjue guarded him that night, Zhan Linfeng found that his body had inexplicably improved a lot, and he even wore less winter clothes. Two things, but I don't feel uncomfortable. On the other hand, my desire for the person in front of me is also increasing with my feelings. In the past, he was ascetic and restrained, but in recent days, he was thinking about it at night. The people who lived in the same yard insulted themselves twice, wishing they could break into Lord Jue Ming's bedroom, have skin-to-skin kisses, and sleep on the same bed.

Zhan Linfeng's face was slightly red because of thinking about his thoughts of confronting Jue Mingjun at night, Jue Mingjun raised his head, put down his pen and said, "Ling Xuan, if it's inconvenient for a few days, I can stay elsewhere for a few days."

Zhan Linfeng hurriedly leaned over, shook his head and said, "Why did Ming Jue say that, I was thinking, if Ming Jue doesn't give up, why not stay in the building for the New Year, I, I won't leave either. "His voice gradually became lighter.

Hearing what he said, Jue Mingjun said, "I have nowhere to go alone, and I need Ling Xuan to take care of you for a few days." After Zhan Linfeng heard this, he hurriedly said: "Well, why don't you and I go together next time? Prepare some necessities for the new year, and Mr. Jue Ming replied, "Okay, let's go after I finish keeping this account. "

The two of them did not take a carriage, but walked all the way down South Bridge Street. Although the weather was very cold, it did not affect the atmosphere of the New Year in Santong City. Some small vendors were selling all kinds of things, some of which were useful. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. In order to go home for the reunion on New Year's Eve, they all tried their best to sell out the goods, so today's street is more lively than usual. Everyone strives to be on the last day of this year. If he could earn a few more coins in two days, Zhan Linfeng held a few big paper bags in his hands and greeted Jun Ming, "Ming Jue, wait for me."

Mr. Jue Ming stopped in front of a stall selling sachets and sachets, and asked the peddler, "How do you sell this? The peddler saw that he was referring to a white sachet with silver tassels hanging from it, and responded with a smile: " My son has good eyesight. This sachet is made of rain and brocade in the south. I only have two here. However, this sachet has not been filled with spices, and I haven’t had time to embroider patterns—this is not finished. You might as well take a look. Download the others, I still have them here. "

"It's okay, I want this unfinished one." Mr. Jue Ming picked up the sachet and inspected it carefully." "This one is unfinished, son, you can give me fifty copper coins." The peddler said with a smile: " I will give you half of the price for the one tael of silver that is finished."

Jue Mingjun picked out a piece of broken silver from the brocade bag at his waist and handed it to the peddler. The peddler weighed it and gave him a handful of copper coins. When he arrived, he happened to see him put away the sachet, and said: "Ming Jue wants to embroider some patterns on it, the craftsmanship of Qiaoyiju is the best in Santong City."

Jun Ming shook his head, "I haven't figured it out yet, what pattern does Ling Xuan like?"

Seeing him asking himself, Zhan Linfeng thought for a while and said, "Cassia or asparagus."

"Oh?" Mr. Cassia was a little surprised. Asparagus is one of the favorite ornaments of literati, plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, which is easy to understand, but Cassia flower, why is it Cassia flower?

Zhan Linfeng saw Jue Mingjun's surprised expression, he was a little embarrassed, turned his head away, "Here, there are actually many patterns, I like them all, red plum, □□, Qinglian..."

Jue Mingjun nodded knowingly, changed the subject and said, "Well, let's go over there and see what we should eat on New Year's Eve tomorrow."

The two of them wandered around the street again, until dusk came, and they returned to the small courtyard to rest at night after dinner. Mr. Caesar took out the sachets bought during the day with the oil lamp on, and selected blue and light yellow silk threads, Skillfully embroidered a bunch of asparagus bamboo on the front of the sachet. For such daily wear, Mr. Jue Ming has always done it himself. Hands and small items are contaminated with other people's breath, so when choosing a sachet, I chose an unfinished one like this.

After finishing the embroidering of the sachet, Mr. Jue Ming took a closer look at it. His embroidery work has been very good after years of practice, the stitches are fine and close, and the few asparagus bamboos are also very elegant.At the end, he put some spices in, and took out the completed purple chalcedony jade pendant. On the front of the jade pendant was a seal of warding off evil engraved in Yang, and on the back was a scripture of peace engraved in Yin. The rope passed through the jade pendant, and put the jade pendant into a small wooden box. He divided the purple chalcedony heart he got that day into two pieces, and carved the jade pendant on one piece, and gave it to Zhan Linfeng as a thank you gift. A seal was engraved with his real name engraved on it.

On New Year's Eve, it snowed heavily.

The people on the street seemed to disappear suddenly, and became quiet and peaceful. Almost all of them stayed at home to reunite with their families. Zhan Linfeng set fire to the ground dragon in the room early in the morning, set up a brazier, and tidied up the chessboard. , warmed a pot of thousand days drunk, and set up a small pot on the brazier. In the pot, cleaned and cut beef bones and mutton into small pieces, and rolled out the noodles with only a thin shirt.

When Jue Mingjun entered the door, Zhan Linfeng was cutting the kneaded noodles into small pieces, and then rolling them into thin dough with a rolling pin.

"It smells so good." Jun Jue Ming held the wooden box in his hand, and closed the door smoothly, a gust of snow wind swept in, and the charcoal fire in the brazier danced a few times.

"Mingjue, you're here, just in time, and the soup is almost ready." Zhan Linfeng stopped, picked up a wooden spoon beside him, stirred the pot, filled a bowl of soup and brought it to Jun Mingjun." Taste it, I don’t know if it suits your taste.”

Jun Jue Ming took the bowl, tasted it, and said with a smile, "It's very fresh, I never thought that Ling Xuan could make soup."

Zhan Linfeng's face turned red when he heard the words, and he said softly: "Ming Jue was joking, I also cooked it blindly, my mother used to cook this soup with her own hands on New Year's Eve, let it boil on the fire for a whole day, Then serve me a bowl, it is said that drinking it can strengthen the body and keep away from illness."

"Oh, then I must drink two more bowls today." Jun Ming said with a smile: "These skins are used to make dumplings."

Zhan Linfeng nodded, looked at the different sizes of dough and said: "It's just a bit ugly, can Ming Jue make dumplings?"

"Well, it's interesting to see other people wrapping it, and I have done it myself twice."

"Mingjue, if you don't mind, why don't you come and let me roll the skin."

"Okay." Jue Mingjun rolled up his sleeves with great interest, began to wrap a piece of skin with a spoonful of mutton stuffing, and in the hands of Jue Ming Jun, the dough skins of different sizes turned into fat, big and small dumplings. .

Footsteps sounded in the yard, and Xiao Yuan's voice sounded outside the door, "Master, master, are you home?"

Jun Jue Ming opened the door, and Xiao Yuan stood outside the door holding a bamboo basket, "Shopkeeper Ming, are you there too? My mother made some delicious food, let me bring it to you." Jun Jue Ming let Xiao Yuan go Entering the room, he jokingly said: "Let me see what delicious food your mother has made?" Xiao Yuan put down the basket, carefully brought out bowls, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Mother said it is not a rare thing. Master and shopkeeper Ming, don’t be disgusted with these things, this is brown sugar millet, this is sauced leg of lamb, this is smoked pork leg, and kidney bean porridge.”

Four large earthen bowls filled half the table, "Xiao Yuan has a heart, thank you mother for me, and bring some dumplings back." Zhan Linfeng said while filling the dumplings on the table with a sea bowl, Put it in his basket.

"Thank you master, then I will go back first." Xiao Yuan smiled and lifted the bamboo basket and said: "My mother is still waiting for me.

"Well, let's go." Zhan Linfeng took out another silver ingot from the kit bag ": This is the silver ingot for you."

"Thank you, master." Xiao Yuan happily took the silver ingot, saluted Zhan Linfeng and Jun Mingjun, and left.

After noon, seeing that the snow was getting bigger, Zhan Linfeng set up the chessboard and said, "Ming Jue wants to play a game."

Alright, Mr. Jue Ming replied: "The two of you didn't stop until the light dimmed. Zhan Linfeng lit the candles, and the two of them lit the brazier. Zhan Linfeng moved the young couple to the couch, warmed the wine and ate. New Year's Eve dinner.

"Taste this Baihua Niang, this is Tata's tribute wine." Zhan Linfeng said as he poured another jug ​​for Jun Ming.

Jun Jue Ming raised his glass to Zhan Linfeng, and drank it all in one gulp, "It's really good wine."

Zhan Linfeng nodded, drank the wine in his glass and said: "Thousand days of drunkenness are intense, but this Baihuaniang is mellow and thick. In fact, Baihuaniang was originally produced in the palace of Monan, and Monan...now it It's long gone... It's just a pity that those people in Monan will be slaves to the subjugated country..." He stopped suddenly, tears flashed in his eyes, Lord Jue Ming knew his identity earlier, and knew that he must be thinking of his homeland at this time , then comforted him and said: "From the eyes of the people in the world, no matter it is Monan, Han, Tata, or Yesha, as long as it is a place where you can live and work in peace, it is a good place. In his heart, he is a good monarch, and temple officials are good officials if they can take the affairs of the people as their purpose. Similarly, if people like you and me can contribute to the affairs of the people, it is already He has done his duty. The people living in this world are Limin people, and the people in the world are all the same, so why should there be any Han kingdom. Tata, Monan, Yecha."

Zhan Linfeng raised his head, with a surprised expression on his face, he had never revealed his life experience to Jue Ming Jun, Jue Ming Jun's words seemed to comfort him, there is no need to be sad because of the subjugation of Monan and the suffering of the people, but carefully After hearing it, it seemed that he was just expressing his own point of view. Zhan Linfeng pursed his lips. He looked at Jun Jue Ming in the light and shadow, but saw that his face was like a jade crown, his lips were like peach blossoms, and his eyes were shining like stars. Personality and temperament are among the dragons and phoenixes.Such a person deserves to be treated with sincerity, and what a blessing it would be to be with him for the rest of his life.

"Ming Jue, there is something I want to tell you." Zhan Linfeng filled the wine, took a sip, and said.

"Oh, Ling Xuan has something to do, but it's okay to say." Jun Ming replied with a smile.

"Actually, I am not a child of the Zhan family, I am..." Before Zhan Linfeng finished speaking, Jun Jue Ming sealed his lips with his fingers. Zhan Linfeng stopped immediately, and the touch on his lips was warm and delicate. His face gradually became hot, and Mr. Jue Ming also realized that his actions were a little too intimate, so he lowered his fingers and said: "Ling Xuan, to me, you are just the owner of Furuilou, but I feel that living in this world The most important thing is to do what you should do and live the life you want.”

Zhan Linfeng was silent for a few breaths. He already understood what Jun Ming meant. He was protecting him and also reminding him, so he nodded and said, "Ming Jue is right, but I didn't want to understand..."

Jue Mingjun picked up the wine glass and filled it with wine, raised the wine cup to Zhan Linfeng and said, "I respect Ling Xuan for this one." Turned blushing, he knelt on the couch, leaned his upper body forward, looked at Jun Ming and said, "Ming Jue, there is one more thing I want to ask you."

"Oh." Jun Jue Ming saw that his face was like three spring peaches under the pouring of wine, his heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Excuse me, Ling Xuan."

"I, I want to ask Ming Jue, have you ever thought about finding someone, a companion, to spend this life hand in hand with you."

"Accompanying person? The accompanying person mentioned by Ling Xuan refers to his wife and concubine."

Zhan Linfeng hesitated, but nodded slowly. In fact, what he wanted to talk about was not limited to wives and concubines.

Lord Jue Ming lowered his head, is there anyone with him?When he was young, how many years ago, Jun Jue Ming seemed to have pictures in front of his eyes, gurgling water, gardens full of flowers, a white jade palace, a mother in palace attire, a mighty Father, elder sister wearing a pearl jade crown, under the blooming cassia flowers in the garden, there is a girl who blinks a pair of big round eyes and pouts a small pink mouth. He, Sakura, and Sakura's father is a lord. From birth, Xiao Sakura was destined to be with him for the rest of his life. He will become the future master of the Yueyue Realm. Xiao Sakura was chosen by his father for him. Wife, when they grow up, they will become husband and wife, and then raise the future ruler of the Yueyue Realm—if there hadn’t been that accident, and the Yueyue Realm hadn’t been destroyed, he would already have a wife now ?Maybe there will be many children.Now my elder sister Mujin, the once proud princess, is still lying in the coffin of Yunguangjing, waiting for him to find the soul-gathering bell, while father, mother, Sakura, and all the people in the Yueyuejing have all died. Turned into a wisp of smoke and dust in the void, Jun Jue Ming's eyes were a little sour, and he covered his face with his hands and said softly: "How can a person who doesn't even have a family grow old with others and spend a lifetime together."

"Why not." Hearing what he said, Zhan Linfeng stretched out his hand and grabbed his wrist: "I, I am willing to support each other with you, Mingjue, for the rest of my life."

Jun Jueming raised his head, just in time to meet Zhan Linfeng's eyes full of expectation and enthusiasm, the two were silent for a while, Zhan Linfeng's eyes slowly filled with tenderness, and when he spoke, his voice was already hoarse." : Mingjue, I am pleased with you."

Jue Mingjun's heart surged like a wave. He heard the words "I am happy with you" from other people's mouths a thousand times or a hundred times, but none of them touched his heart like this. He just felt There is a place in my heart that is gradually filled with an indescribable warmth, and then overflows to the limbs.Zhan Linfeng grabbed his hand, passed over Xiaoji, bent down, and slowly approached Jun Mingjun until the two breathed and heard each other. Then, Zhan Linfeng's lips pressed against his, and Jun Jueming didn't move. Zhan Linfeng's tongue swept across his lips, and lightly licked his mouth. A strange numbness rose up, causing Jun Mingjun to tremble slightly. Finally, he turned his head to one side and took a deep breath, saying in a deep voice. Said: "Ling Xuan, you are drunk."

Zhan Linfeng put his hand on the side of his face, his face was very hot, and there was mist in his eyes, he replied in a hoarse voice: "I don't, Mingjue, I..." Jun Jue Ming raised his head, looked at His eyes": You're drunk."

Through Jun Jue Ming's eyes, Zhan Linfeng seemed to see the sea of ​​stars all over the sky. Every star in the sea of ​​stars was spinning, emitting flickering light, and a heavy tiredness surged up. Zhan Linfeng had no support He stayed, reclined on the couch, and closed his eyes.

"You're drunk, but I'm still awake." Jun Jueming got down, picked up Zhan Linfeng, opened the door and sent him back to Zhan Linfeng's bedroom, covered him with a silk quilt, and sat down on the side of the bed , looked at Zhan Linfeng's sleeping face, brushed his fingertips lightly across his face, was silent for a moment, sighed softly, then turned around and turned off the oil lamp, closed the door, tidied up the drinking room just now, and then returned to own bedroom.

Sitting on the couch, Jue Mingjun was a little confused. He stretched out his hand to touch the place where Zhan Linfeng kissed just now. It seemed that there was still the burning and softness of Zhan Linfeng's lips. He didn't feel it when Zhan Linfeng approached. Pushing him away, not even avoiding him, Jue Mingjun is very aware of his usual tolerance, he hates being touched very much, but for Zhan Linfeng, he doesn't hate it, on the contrary, he looks forward to it, looking forward to being tendered by him Looking forward to his touch, Jun Jue Ming shook his head and put his hand on his forehead. He must have been too involved in the drama. It seems that it is time for Ming Jue, a troubled scholar, to come to an end. He may not have gone to the stage for a long time, and Lord Ming should go back to Beijing.

Jun Jue Ming lay motionless on the couch, but his heart did not calm down. It is not that he has never thought about staying with one person for a lifetime, but the life of a mortal is short, and in the long life of Jun Ming Jun, it is like a fleeting firework. Staying together, people in the ten realms like him, Jian Zhi is accompanied by Sang Yu, An Jiufeng found Ji Liuyun 300 years ago, the twelve sons, although the twelve sons are alone, it is better to keep a distance from him , Mr. Jue Ming thought about it like a galloping horse, and before he knew it, a ray of morning light appeared outside the window.

He made up his mind, got up and changed into a blue brocade robe, went to Zhan Linfeng's door, and gently opened the door. Zhan Linfeng was still sleeping. Jun Ming took out the jade pendant carved with purple chalcedony and put it on the Zhan Linfeng lay beside his pillow, thought for a while, left a letter and left the door, and looked back at the small courtyard again. Maybe he would never come back as Mingjue again, nor would he use Mingjue again. This identity and name.
