Well of Mystery

In any case, what happened in Luolong Village was not the focus of their trip.Although the circumstances of the case were paradoxical, after some discussions, the initial excitement almost dissipated, so they still went to their own houses to spend the night.

The agreed place to go to the island is seven o'clock in the morning of the next day.Bai Xiuqi got up when the sky was bright, and wanted to go to the beach to watch the sunrise alone.

The quality of Jiang Chenglu's sleep seemed to be good, and the sound of his even breathing could be heard from the opposite bed.In order not to wake him up, Bai Xiuqi stepped out lightly, but before he opened the door, he heard rustling noises behind him.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Chenglu with messy hair and only a pair of underpants followed him.

Bai Xiuqi said a little funnyly that he was going to watch the sunrise and asked him to sleep a little longer.But Jiang Chenglu didn't listen at all, he turned his head and began to put on his clothes and trousers, while muttering, never letting Bai Xiuqi out of his sight.

So a walk alone becomes a two-person walk.

After leaving the door, there was no one in the inn in the early morning, and the light blue morning light fell on the rose bushes in the small courtyard, as quiet as a watercolor painting.The tribute altar set up last night was still in place, and it seemed that the proprietress's family hadn't been back all night.

Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu walked through the yard to the small street outside. The small fishing village by the sea was sleepy. There was no human voice or dog barking, only the sound of the distant waves making a sound like a strong wind blowing through the pine forest.

Relying that no one was around, Jiang Chenglu took the initiative to hold Bai Xiuqi's hand, imitating those young human couples, clasping his fingers tightly.

"Actually, I've always wanted to do this." He smiled contentedly: "But you are a public figure anyway. It's troublesome to be seen."

"What are you afraid of?" Bai Xiuqi took the initiative to squeeze his hand: "I don't care what others say, and I don't want to be a public figure."

"But you still have relatives and friends, don't you care about them?" Jiang Chenglu asked himself and answered, "You are not this kind of person."

Instead, Bai Xiuqi raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "You have to know, then you are going to wait for the people around me to die before you dare to be upright?"

Jiang Chenglu shook his hand with a smile: "There's no rush. At worst, I'll lock you up in the apartment, so I don't have to worry about what people outside think."

"..." Bai Xiuqi glared at him, and suddenly asked in a blunt tone: "Do you have a passport?"

"No, it's enough to fly out of the country for a few hours. What do I need a passport for?"

"Go and do one." Bai Xiuqi ordered: "I can't register without a passport when I go abroad."

Jiang Chenglu's footsteps stopped suddenly, he turned his head and widened his eyes: "You... are you proposing to me?"

Bai Xiuqi lowered his head and didn't look at Jiang Chenglu. To be honest, he was still beating drums in his heart, but he was still trying to calm down on the surface: "...I said it was so clear, don't you understand?! Or are you unwilling? ?”

"Willing, willing, why not?!"

Jiang Chenglu nodded and shook his head again, his mouth closed from ear to ear with joy, and he was about to turn around while holding Bai Xiuqi's hand.Bai Xiuqi cursed in a low voice.Then he couldn't help laughing out loud.He reached out and stroked Jiang Chenglu's cheek.He raised his head and sent a kiss.

And at this moment, the rising sun jumped out of the horizon, and the golden-red light pierced through the cloud bag close to the sea and projected over.Coat everything in the world with a layer of magnificent gold.

"Look." Jiang Chenglu chuckled on Bai Xiuqi's lips, "The power we have together can summon the sun."

"Blow it and you will." Bai Xiuqi took the opportunity to bite his lower lip.

Just when they took advantage of the fact that there was no one around.Two more people came from the other end of the beach.One of them had a navy blue long scarf wrapped around his head, which made his face pale as paper.The man beside him held his hand, and the two of them walked very slowly.

It was Jian Tong and Luo Weilu.

Suddenly bumping into the intimate scene between Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu, Jian Tong couldn't help but freeze in place.Luo Weilu, who was walking behind, bumped into his shoulder for a moment, and Jian Tong came back to his senses in astonishment, and turned around to help him.

"...What's wrong?" Luo Weilu groped for Jian Tong's arm and asked in a low voice.

Not intending to cause trouble to others, Bai Xiuqi pushed away Jiang Chenglu's hand on his waist in embarrassment, and reluctantly greeted Jian Tong and Luo Weilu: "So early? You also come to watch the sunrise ?”

After saying this, he regretted it——Luo Weilu couldn't see anything at all, what kind of sunrise was watching, which was a big taboo for the blind.

But Luo Weilu actually nodded.

"Yes." He slightly turned his head towards the direction from Haitao: "By the sea in the early morning, there is a fragrance in the air. Although I can't see the scene of the sun rising, but at that moment, I can feel the whole world It's starting to get warm."

While Luo Weilu was speaking, a gust of wind from the sea blew the scarf off his head.The light was dim last night, and now Bai Xiuqi could see Luo Weilu's face clearly.

This is a very beautiful person, so beautiful regardless of gender, closer to the purity of a work of art.In fact, this "pure" feeling comes not only from Luo Weilu's exquisite facial features, but also from his unusual hair color—it turned out to be as silvery as snow.

Now Bai Xiuqi finally understood why he was always wrapped in a scarf.Juvenile graying is a very rare disease. Although there are some people who are still young and have graying hair in modern times, there is no such thing as Luo Weilu's silvery whiteness.

Aware of his surprise, Jian Tong quickly wrapped Luo Weilu's scarf again, and at the same time shook his head to signal Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu not to continue asking.

Luo Weilu didn't know anything about Jian Tong's movements, he smiled towards the sea, and his voice was extraordinarily soft.

"Our hometown is far away from the sea. I always said that I wanted to come and listen to the sound of the sea. Now I know that the sound of the waves hitting the shells on the beach collided with the silver bells and chains on the Miao girls. The sound it makes is so similar, it makes me feel a little homesick."

"Your hometown is in the southwest?" Bai Xiuqi heard something, "Aren't you Han?"

"I am, but Weilu is not." Jian Tong shook his head: "He is from Naxi."

"Is it from Lijiang?" Bai Xiuqi's eyes lit up: "I went to Lijiang to write life a few years ago. It is really beautiful there."

He meant to say this as a compliment, but Luo Weilu laughed.

"No, it's not Lijiang. Our hometown is at the foot of the majestic Shenwai Longxue Mountain, known as Wulu..."

"Ahem..." Jian Tong coughed twice and interrupted him: "It's getting late. Everyone pack up and get ready to take the boat."

After finishing speaking, he nodded towards Bai Xiuqi and Jiang Chenglu, and led Luo Weilu towards the inn.

"..." Watching their backs go away, Bai Xiuqi felt something was wrong: "That's a good word. Why did you leave suddenly?"

"I'm afraid it's because Luo Weilu slipped his tongue."

Jiang Chenglu, who hadn't spoken much since just now, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened the web browser, entered a few words, and then transferred the search results to Bai Xiuqi.

"It turns out that Shenwailong Snow Mountain is Jade Dragon Snow Mountain." Bai Xiuqi nodded: "Then what's wrong?"

"Look carefully, Shenwai Longxue Mountain is the name of the Tang Dynasty."

"So what about the Tang Dynasty? I like to call Xi'an Chang'an. Could it be that I am also a person who crossed over from the Tang Dynasty?"

"...Then you still remember the place name that Luo Weilu was interrupted just now, right?"

"Looks like mist or something?"

Jiang Chenglu nodded, pressed the buttons a few more times, and found another search option related to Shenwai Longxue Mountain.

Wulu Youcui Pavilion is a mysterious paradise hidden at the foot of Shenwailongxue Mountain.Its mysterious entrance is hidden in Yunshanping area.According to legend, only men and women who died in love stood on the edge of the cliff and jumped down to enter.

certainly.It only exists in the myths and legends of the Naxi people.

"It seems that the energy I sensed in the inn yesterday afternoon came from these two people." Jiang Chenglu thought: "But I can't see their true colors, obviously they are not puwei spirits." That kind of low-level existence. They are going to the Wandering Island like us, and they may know that it is a part of Shengzhou Island. We have to be careful."

"But I don't think they are bad people." Bai Xiuqi recalled that pale but soft face in his mind: "Especially that Luo Weilu. How should I put it... When we met for the first time last night, I thought he looked familiar. I like him very much, the kind of love at first sight."

"It's decided. Then I'll hate them immediately." Jiang Chenglu put his arms around Bai Xiuqi's waist recklessly: "It doesn't matter if you praise other people in front of me, no matter whether they are men or women, do you hear me?"

"Are you possessed by a jealous woman?" Bai Xiuqi laughed dumbly: "I said, why does this sea smell of jealousy?"

"Don't you know that you need to be jealous when eating seafood?" Jiang Chenglu made a gesture to bite Bai Xiuqi's face: "Let my uncle taste whether today's seafood is fresh enough..."

————————————————————————

Taking advantage of no one around, they tossed around the beach again, and when they returned to the inn, everyone got up.A self-service breakfast is prepared in the hall on the first floor—white porridge, salted peanuts, various pickles, cold kelp shreds, small dried fish and poached eggs. It is simple but refreshing.

Among them, a cold dish called "Chunyu" is particularly popular.The ingredients are actually quite ordinary, which is a mixture of shredded kelp, white sesame seeds, vermicelli, enoki mushrooms and bamboo shoots, but because the sauce is well prepared, it is extra crisp and delicious.

It is said that this is the specialty of the proprietress of the inn, and the appearance of Chunyu indirectly means that the proprietress has returned.

Sure enough, when we checked out and checked out, the proprietress showed up.Although he looked tired, his mood was relatively calm.After paying the bill, Bai Xiuqi asked her for a business card of the inn, and couldn't help asking about what happened last night.

Last night, the proprietress went to the police station with her husband and son, and was then separated to make a record.She was the first to complete the transcript, but in order to wait for her family, she simply sat in the hall for a while. During this period, she saw many villagers who were brought together to make the transcript leave one after another.A few hours later, both Ah Hai and Hai Dad were sent out, saying that the suspicion had been ruled out and they could go home directly.

"So, the police probably already know who committed the crime?" Bai Xiuqi asked.

"I know, I know for sure. Just think about this kind of thing with your toes!" The proprietress showed a very professional gossip expression.

ps: The prototype of Wulu Youcui Pavilion is the legendary "Jade Dragon Third Country" in the area of ​​Yulong Snow Mountain. It was originally called Wulu Youcui Pavilion or Molu Youcui Pavilion (Youwu Pavilion).The homophony is used here to distinguish the fictional content of the novel from the factual location.So there is still a big difference between this place and the national legend.
