I respect him so fragrant

The sky was clear, Xie Yao and Jiang Gu sat on Samsung's back, surrounded by white clouds within reach.The wind is lingering, they fly over the bustling and noisy market, the green hills that stretch for thousands of miles and the green water that has never changed, one journey after another.

The world is under their feet, and they are passers-by in the world.

"It would be nice to let Samsung take us with us, so as to save Yujian from being tired and troublesome in the future."

"……Um."

A moment of silence.

"Student, let me ask you a question."

"Ah."

Although he didn't know if he could get the answer, Xie Yao still asked, "Where did my belt go that night?"

In fact, he wanted to say it yesterday, but at the time Qingfeng Xianzun was present, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he was too embarrassed to speak up.Now there is no one around, only him and Jiang Gu, the time is ripe, and it is a perfect time to ask this.

Jiang Gu didn't sit close to Xie Yao, but he heard the question clearly.He lowered his eyes with guilt, and said softly: "I lost it."

"I lost it..." Xie Yao said.

Jiang Gu hummed in a low voice.

"Oh, it's okay, I'll just ask casually," Xie Yao said, fearing that he would be unhappy about what happened that night again, "It's all over, so I won't mention it."

"……Um."

Another moment of silence.

"Do you know where we are going next?" Xie Yao started to find another topic.

"Ghost Falling into the Market." Jiang Gu replied, "Investigate the matter of Han Jiang's order and Gu Yingmen, and...find the murderer in Xiancao Village."

Xie Yao said: "Although that is the case, the time interval for the Xiancao Village case is too long, and there are few clues. With the strength of the two of us alone, I am afraid..."

I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out.

Xie Yao didn't dare to say completely.Because he found that since Jiang Gu learned everything about Xiancao Village, this matter seemed to have become a knot in his heart.No matter who mentioned it, it would make him frown.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Jiang Gu frowned deeply again, looking worried.

A moment of silence followed.

But this time Xie Yao was too lazy to speak again.

tired.

I don't know how long it took, until dusk was in the sky, and the sky was covered with gorgeous fire clouds, which made half of the faces of the two of them warm and yellow.Jiang Gucai said: "Master, I want to go back to Datun Village to have a look."

"Why do you suddenly want to go?" Xie Yao asked, "Is today a special day?"

"No." Jiang Gudao, "I just want to go suddenly."

"Oh, I haven't been back for a long time, so it's good to go back and have a look." Xie Yao nodded, and looked down, "We shouldn't be far from there now, and we may arrive before dark."

"Ah."

Xie Yao said to Sanxing again: "Sanxing, let's go to Datun Village, I heard that the trees there grow small dried fish."

Samsung groaned, seemed very excited, and flapped his wings even more vigorously.

Datun Village, Yongzhou.

The place where they landed was a large lake next to the village.As night approached, the lake was sparkling, and fish jumped out of the water from time to time.Staring at the fish, Sanxing was so excited that he rushed into the water without hesitation.Xie Yao asked Jiang Gu not to stop him, and explained: "Although Sanxing is not very smart, it is a descendant of Bai Ze, and ordinary people and monsters can't hurt it. Besides, when it enters the village, the villagers will be frightened when they see it. Let it Play here, it won't run around."

"It was originally a descendant of Bai Ze," Jiang Gu said, "No wonder Immortal Nanfeng regards it as a treasure."

"Now it's not a treasure in our hands." Xie Yao smiled, "Let's go, where shall we go first?"

I thought Jiang Gu would say to visit his parents' cemetery or the place where he used to live, but instead he said, "I want to go to Xihan's house first."

Xie Yao was a little puzzled: "Li Qihan? Ruxue's apprentice? Why did you go to his house first?"

"When I was young, I moved to Datun Village with my mother. His family took care of us a lot, and he was considered a benefactor."

"So that's the case," Xie Yao nodded, "That should really be a look."

He was about to leave, but Jiang Gu remained where he was.

"Aren't you going?"

"Wait...wait a minute."

"Why?" Xie Yao said, "Now that you have entered the Immortal Sect, returning to your hometown is considered an honorable return to your hometown. What is there to take care of?"

"I just want to see if Li Bo and Aunt Li are doing well, and I don't want to alarm other people."

Having said that, Jiang Gu smiled bitterly: "As for returning home with honor, it's only when Xihan returns home with honor. After all, there are his parents here. And it doesn't matter if I come back."

The moonlight was shining brightly, and the young man's face was as if covered with gold.He obviously had a slight smile on his face, but it made people feel desolate for no reason.

"Why belittle yourself," Xie Yao said softly, "People in the village must be very happy to see you."

Jiang Gu thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it."

***

Li family.

The candles on the table were faltering, illuminating the walls dimly.Uncle Li glanced at the sky outside, and said to Aunt Li who was still busy in the house: "Old lady, look, the moon is big and round today, like a cornbread."

Hearing this, Aunt Li also raised her head and looked out of the window, and said, "It's fifteen today, it's no wonder the moon is not round."

She glanced at Uncle Li who was sitting on the bed again, and said in a disgusted tone, "I'm talking about you, can you stop saying it's like a cornbread when you see a round moon. Qi Han is now a big shot at cultivating immortals, and you, as his father , at least it looks like it."

"Don't tell me this. It's his job to cultivate immortality, and it's my job to talk about it. It has nothing to do with it." Uncle Li said bluntly, "Why don't you think about today's fifteenth day, when Xi Han and A Gu are here?" Are you doing well in the sect, and how are you doing in cultivating immortals?"

"Eat salty radish and don't worry about it. They are such a big school, why are you worried about food, clothing and housing?" Aunt Li said, "As for cultivating immortals, can you understand if I tell you?"

Uncle Li was so stunned that he was speechless, so he pulled up the quilt to cover him, waved his hands and said, "I have nothing to say to you, sleep."

"Originally." Aunt Li finished her work and walked to the burning candle, "You sleep and I sleep, virtue."

The candles in the room were suddenly extinguished and plunged into darkness.

Outside the house, Xie Yao stood outside the door of Li's house and said to Jiang Gu beside him, "They turned off the lights."

"En." Jiang Gu nodded, then took out a heavy bag of silver from his sleeve, walked slowly to the courtyard, and placed it at the door.

Quietly and cleanly.

"It's fine if you don't go in and meet them, why don't you even leave a note?" Xie Yao asked, "At least let them know that you have been here."

After finishing all this, Jiang Gu glanced back at the courtyard he was familiar with before, and shook his head lightly: "No need, they will know."

If you don't meet, there will be no parting, if you don't leave a message, there will be no concern.He was already alone, and it would be a sin if he left attachments for others.

By the time Jiang Gu's gate arrived, it was already the dead of night.

It has been uninhabited for several years, and the place is full of weeds and cobwebs all over the eaves and walls.For some reason, a corner of the house collapsed. Although it doesn't seem to have much impact now, its future can already be foreseen.

Looking at this strange yet familiar place, Jiang Gu opened his mouth, as if he was very confused.

"We may have to rest here for one night." Xie Yao said, "It's too late, we can't hurry."

Jiang Gu finally came to his senses, pushed open the fence door belatedly, and said, "Yes, Master, come in."

He led Xie Yao into the room on the side that was not collapsed, and took out a bedding from the dilapidated cabinet, put it on the bed, and said, "Aunt Li should come to clean it every once in a while, and the bedding will be taken out to dry, Master." Take it easy, respect."

Xie Yao said: "What about you? Where do you sleep?"

"I sleep over there," Jiang Gu pointed to the collapsed corner of the room, "I have slept there since childhood."

"Will it be..."

"It's okay, Master," Jiang Gu comforted, "That place won't be completely collapsed for a while."

"...That's fine." Xie Yao knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he could only let him, "Be more careful."

"it is good."

***

Xie Yao succeeded in not falling asleep.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, he closed his eyes and lay on the bed very upset, Jiang Gu's face with a bitter smile flashed through his mind from time to time.

In the end, he simply sneaked into the yard and jumped onto the persimmon tree in the yard.

This persimmon tree has grown for an unknown number of years. It is tall and big, with strong branches.But although the branches are luxuriant, the leaves are not lush, and they look a little bald.

All in all, this is a very suitable place to enjoy the night and think about life.

Just as Xie Yao was about to close his eyes and take a nap, he heard the door creak again, followed by the sound of footsteps, steady but light.

He lowered his head and took a sneak peek, and it was indeed Jiang Gu.

Jiang Gu walked under the tree, sat down with his back against it, and opened the box in his hand.

Inside the box was a jade pendant, which looked very familiar.

Then Jiang Gu whispered: "Mother, I'm back."

Xie Yao on the tree held back his breath and listened quietly.

"I just went to Li Bo and Aunt Li's house. I didn't bother them, but I just put down some money."

"I've saved my own money over the years."

"I passed by a stall selling hairpins before, and I wanted to buy you a hairpin." Jiang Gudao, "But when the vendor asked me what kind of fancy style you like, I couldn't answer."

"In the end I didn't buy it."

Here he was silent for a moment, as if a little lost.

After a while, Xie Yao heard him continue to whisper: "Actually, mother, I have something to say to you."

"Hidden words for a long time."

The moonlight shone on Jiang Gu's body, making his figure look very lonely.

"Mother, everyone... They all say it's good to be a fairy, but I don't think it's good at all."

"When I first came to Wanyue Fairy Mountain, there were a few noble gentlemen who didn't like me very much."

"I won't tell you why they don't like me."

"One time they took advantage of me to go to the back mountain to practice swords, and soaked my quilt and clothes in the water. I didn't find out until I came back."

"Actually, it's not very cold on the mountain, but that day I was injured during sword practice, and for some reason, I developed a high fever at night."

"I lay in bed and felt cold for the first time."

Jiang Gu's voice suddenly became hoarse: "Then mother, I realized that I miss you a little bit."

"Yes, I miss it a little bit."

"Although you told me not to miss you when you left, I agreed."

"But that night, I really couldn't restrain myself."

Jiang Gu touched the jade pendant lightly, his eyes were reddish: "At that time, I was thinking, if only you were here, you could take me down the mountain and stay away from this wretched place."

"I don't want to learn magic at all, and I don't want to be the apprentice of the immortal."

"I just want to be with you."

Xie Yao closed his eyes in silence when he heard the words.

From somewhere in the grass came the sound of insects.

After a long, long time, Xie Yao thought that Jiang Gu had left under the tree.Only then did he say again: "But it will be fine later."

As for when it was later, how good it was, and how his condition was after that night, there was no mention.

Just to report the results calmly - I'm fine now.

"Mother, that's all I want to say." Jiang Gu paused, wondering if he should continue, "Actually..."

His tone suddenly softened, like a child who hasn't grown up and wants candy.

"Actually, today is the night of the full moon." He buried his head into his neck and shoulders, like throwing himself into his mother's arms when he was young, "I want to hear your story."

And it’s not just thinking about it a little bit, it’s thinking about it very much.

I really want to.

The author has something to say: In fact, in this chapter, I mainly want to explain to you why the matter of Xiancao Village had a great influence on Jiang Gu.Because the Datun Village where Jiang Gu lived is very similar to this village, emmmmm, so everyone should understand that if such a terrible thing happened to his village one day...
