Chereads / The Master of Evil Paths - Reborn / Chapter 70 - About to leave-III

Chapter 70 - About to leave-III

Two months later. Yunmeng.

After the sudden collapse of the Wen clan in Qishan, the once most prosperous Immortal Capital of Evernight disappeared into thin air and became an abandoned capital. A large number of monks sought new places for activities and were divided into various new cities. Among them, the largest number of monks flocked to Lanling, Yunmeng, Gusu, and Qinghe. On the long street, people were coming and going, and the disciples and disciples of each family were walking with swords in their hands, talking loudly about the current situation in the world, and they were all high-spirited.

Suddenly, the pedestrians around lowered their voices slightly, and their eyes turned to the end of the long street.

Over there, a young man in white clothes, wiping his forehead, carrying a harp and carrying a sword, was walking slowly.

This man's face was extremely handsome, but his whole body seemed to be covered with frost and snow. Before he even got closer, the monks consciously kept silent and paid attention to him. Someone with some reputation boldly stepped forward to salute and said, "Hanguang Lord."

Lan Wangji nodded slightly and returned the gift meticulously, not pausing too much. The other monks did not dare to disturb him too much and retreated voluntarily.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a smiling girl in colorful clothes walked towards him. She passed by him in a hurry and suddenly threw something on him.

Lan Wangji quickly caught the thing, and when he lowered his head, he saw that it was a snow-white flower bud.

The buds are delicate and fresh, still with dew. Lan Wangji was silent and silent when another graceful figure came towards him, raising his hand and throwing out a small light blue flower. It was intended to hit his heart, but it hit him on the shoulder by mistake. Lan Wangji grabbed him again and looked away. The woman laughed, hiding her face and running away without shame.

The third time, a young girl with combed hair and double hair came skipping over, holding a bunch of flower branches with scattered red buds in her hands, threw it on his chest, turned around and ran away.

Over and over again, Lan Wangji had picked up a handful of colorful flowers and stood expressionlessly on the street. The monks who recognized Mr. Hanguang on the street wanted to smile but did not dare to laugh. They pretended to be serious, but their eyes kept drifting this way; the ordinary civilians who did not recognize him were already pointing. Lan Wangji was lowering his head to think, when his hair suddenly became heavy. He raised his hand, and a pink peony flower in full bloom fell on his temple.

Atop the tall building, a smiling voice came: "Lan Zhan - ah, no, Lord Hanguang. What a coincidence!"

Lan Wangji looked up and saw pavilions and pavilions with fluttering gauze curtains. A slender man in black was leaning against the red lacquer beauty, lowering his hand and holding an exquisite black pottery wine pot. Half of the wine pot's bright red tassels were on his arm, and the other half was hanging leisurely in the air. rock.

Seeing Wei Wuxian's face, the faces of the disciples from the aristocratic families who were watching became very strange. Everyone has always known that the relationship between Yiling Patriarch and Hanguang Lord is not good. They fought side by side several times during the Sun Shooting Campaign, and they often argued on the same front. I don't know what they will do this time. I can't even pretend to be reserved at the moment. He looked at these two people harder and harder.

Lan Wangji did not walk away as coldly as they suspected, and only said: "It's you."

Wei Wuxian said, "It's me! Of course it's me who can do such boring things. Why do you have time to come to Yunmeng? If you're not in a hurry, why don't you come up and have a drink?"

Several young girls gathered around him, crowded on the beauty, and laughed loudly: "Yes, sir, come up and have a drink!"

These girls were the same ones who had just thrown flowers at him. It was self-evident who was instigating this behavior.

Lan Wangji lowered his head, turned around and left. Wei Wuxian was not surprised when he saw that he was unable to seduce him. He clicked his tongue, rolled off the beauty's back, raised his head and took a sip of wine from the pot. Unexpectedly, a moment later, a burst of footsteps, neither light nor heavy, neither slow nor urgent, came.

Lan Wangji steadily climbed up the stairs, holding the curtain and entering. The bead curtain was jingling, and the sound was as crisp as music.

He placed the bunch of flowers that hit him on the small case and said, "Your flowers."

Wei Wuxian turned to the small case and said, "You're welcome, I'll give it to you. These are already your flowers."

Lan Wangji said: "Why."

Wei WuXian said, "No reason, I just want to see how you would react when encountering something like this."

Lan Wangji said: "Boring."

Wei WuXian said, "It's just boring. Otherwise, why would I be so boring that I would drag you here... Hey, hey, don't leave. I've already come here. Why don't I leave after two drinks?"

Lan Wangji said: "No alcohol."

Wei WuXian said, "I know your family prohibits alcohol. But it's not like this is a place where Yunshen doesn't know where to drink. It doesn't matter if you have a couple of drinks."

The girls immediately took out new wine cups, filled them and pushed them to the pile of flowers. Lan Wangji still had no intention of sitting down, but he didn't seem to have any intention of leaving either.

Wei Wuxian said, "It's rare that you come to Yunmeng and you really don't want to taste the fine wine here? However, although the wine is beautiful, it still can't compare to your Gusu Emperor's smile. It's really the most beautiful wine. I'll have the opportunity in the future. When I go to Gusu again, I will definitely hide all of them and drink them all in one go. Tell me, what's wrong with you? You won't sit down when there is a seat, but you have to stand and sit."

The girls all shouted, "Sit down!" "Sit down!"

Lan Wangji's light eyes looked coldly at these extremely beautiful girls, and then his eyes focused on the shiny black flute tied with a red tassel on Wei Wuxian's waist. He seemed to be thinking deeply, thinking about his words. Seeing this, Wei Wuxian raised an eyebrow, somewhat anticipating what he would say next.

Sure enough, Lan Wangji said slowly, "You shouldn't be around non-human beings all day long."

The smiles on the faces of the girls who were cheering around Wei Wuxian disappeared in an instant.

The gauze curtain fluttered, blocking out the sunlight from time to time, and the inside of the balcony was flickering. At this moment, it seemed that their snow-white faces were a little too white, bloodless, and even looked a little livid. Their eyes were staring straight at Lan Wangji, giving rise to a deep chill for no reason.

Wei Wuxian raised his hand and asked them to step aside. He shook his head and said, "Lan Zhan, the older you get, the less interesting you become. You are so young and you are not even 70 years old. Why do you always imitate your uncle and always think about teaching people a lesson?" ."

Lan Wangji turned around, took a step closer to him, and said, "Wei Ying, you'd better come back to Gusu with me."

"..." Wei WuXian said, "I haven't heard this sentence for a long time. The Sun Shooting Campaign has passed, and I thought you had given up long ago."

Lan Wangji said: "Did you notice any signs during the last hunt at Baifeng Mountain?"

Wei WuXian asked, "What's the sign?"

Lan Wangji said: "Out of control."

Wei Wuxian said, "You mean I almost got into a fight with Jin Zixuan? I think you are mistaken. I always want to fight when I see Jin Zixuan."

Lan Wangji said: "And what you said later."

Wei WuXian said, "What words? I talk so much every day, and I have already forgotten everything I said two months ago."

Lan Wangji looked at him, as if he could tell at a glance that he was just talking casually. He took a breath and said, "Wei Ying."

He stubbornly said: "The ghost path damages the body and the mind."

Wei Wuxian seemed to have a headache, and said helplessly: "Lan Zhan, you... I've heard enough of these words, haven't you said enough? You said it harmed the body, but I'm fine now. You said it harmed the mind, but I He hasn't become too crazy."

Lan Wangji said: "It's not too late now. You will regret it later..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wei Wuxian's expression changed, he stood up and said, "Lan Zhan!"

The girls behind him all had their eyes glowing red without realizing it. Wei Wuxian said, "Don't move."

So, they bowed their heads and backed away, but still stared at Lan Wangji. Wei Wuxian said to Lan Wangji, "How should I put it? Although I don't think I will regret it, but I don't like others to predict what will happen to me in the future."

After a moment of silence, Lan Wangji said, "I was rude."

Wei Wuxian said, "It's okay. But it seems that I really shouldn't have invited you up. I'm taking the liberty today."

Lan Wangji said: "No."

Wei Wuxian smiled slightly and said politely, "Really? It would be better if I didn't."

He drank the remaining half glass of wine in one gulp and said, "But thank you anyway, I'll just assume you care about me."

Wei Wuxian waved his hand and said, "Then I won't bother Hanguang-Jun. Let's meet again if we are destined."

When Wei Wuxian returned to Lotus Pier, Jiang Cheng was cleaning his sword, raised his eyes and said, "Back?"

Wei Wuxian said, "I'm back."

Jiang Cheng said, "You look so unlucky, could it be that you met Jin Zixuan?"

Wei Wuxian said, "It's worse than meeting Jin Zixuan. Guess who it is."

Jiang Cheng said, "Give me a hint."

Wei Wuxian said, "You want to lock me up."

Jiang Cheng frowned and said, "Lan Wangji? Why did he come to Yunmeng?"

Wei WuXian said, "I don't know. He's wandering around the street, looking for someone. He didn't mention it for a long time after the Sun Shooting Campaign, and now he's started again."

Jiang Cheng said, "Who asked you to stop him first?"

Wei WuXian said, "How did you know it was me who stopped him first?"

Jiang Cheng said, "Do you still need to ask? Not once! You are also strange. You clearly break up with him on bad terms every time, so why do you work tirelessly to please him every time?"

Wei Wuxian thought for a moment and said, "Do you think I'm bored?"

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes, thinking, "You know that too," and shifted his gaze back to the sword. Wei WuXian asked, "How many times a day do you need to clean this sword?"

Jiang Cheng said: "Three times. Where is your sword? How long has it been since it was wiped?"

Wei WuXian took a pear, took a bite, and said, "Throw it in the room. Wipe it once a month."

Jiang Cheng said: "From now on, don't wear a sword in big occasions like hunting or symposiums. People will catch you if you have no tutor or examples."

Wei Wuxian said, "It's not like you don't know. I hate people forcing me the most. The more they force me, the less I want to do it. If I don't carry a sword, what can I do?"

Jiang Cheng glared at him. Wei Wuxian added, "And I don't want to be dragged into a sword duel by a group of people I don't know. My sword must see blood when it is unsheathed. Unless I send two people to kill, no one can bother me. Just don't Take it with you, once and for all, we want peace and quiet."

Jiang Cheng said, "Didn't you love to show off your swordsmanship in front of others before?"

Wei Wuxian said, "I was a child before. Who can be a child forever?"

Jiang Cheng chuckled and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't wear a sword. But you should avoid messing with Jin Zixuan from now on. After all, he is Jin Guangshan's only son, and he will be the head of the Lanling Jin family in the future. If you fight with him, what will you do to me, the head of the family?" Do it. Beat him with you? Or punish you?"

Wei Wuxian said, "Isn't there another Jin Guangyao now? Jin Guangyao is much more pleasing to the eye than him."

Jiang Cheng finished wiping the sword, looked at it for a while, then inserted the three poisons into the sheath, and said: "What's the use of pleasing the eyes? No matter how pleasing to the eyes, no matter how smart, he can only be a retainer who welcomes people, and he will stop there in this life. After all, there is no comparison with Jin Zixuan."

Listening to his tone, Wei Wuxian seemed to have high regard for Jin Zixuan, saying, "Jiang Cheng, answer me honestly, what do you mean? You brought Senior Sister there last time, don't you really want to Senior sister and him...?"

Jiang Cheng said, "It's not a bad idea."

Wei WuXian said, "Isn't it a bad idea? You've forgotten what he did in Langxie. Why don't you tell me?"

Jiang Cheng said, "He probably regrets it."

Wei WuXian said: "Who cares that he regrets and forgives him when he knows he is wrong? If you look at his father's virtue, he might be like that in the future, wandering around looking for women. Senior sister with him? Can you bear it? ?"

Jiang Cheng said solemnly: "He dares!"

After a pause, Jiang Cheng glanced at him and said, "However, it's not you who has the final say whether you forgive me or not. Who told my sister to like him?"

Wei Wuxian was immediately speechless. After a long while, he squeezed out a sentence: "Why do you like this..."

He threw the pear and said, "Where is senior sister?"

Jiang Cheng said: "I don't know. It's not in those places. If it's not in the kitchen, it's in the bedroom, or it's in the ancestral hall. Where else can she go."

Wei Wuxian left the sword-testing hall and went to the kitchen first. There was half a can of hot soup simmering on the fire, but no one was there. When he went to Jiang Yanli's room, he was not there either. Finally, I went to the ancestral hall, and sure enough, it was there.

Jiang Yanli was sitting on her knees in the ancestral hall, wiping the tablets of her father and mother and talking quietly. Wei Wuxian poked his head in and said, "Senior sister? Are you chatting with Uncle Jiang and Madam Yu again?"

Jiang Yanli said softly: "You all didn't come, so I had to come."

Wei Wuxian walked in, sat down next to her, and wiped the memorial tablet together.

Jiang Yanli glanced at him and said, "Axian, why do you look at me like this? Are you trying to say something to me?"

Wei WuXian smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'll just come in and roll around."

With that said, Jiang Yanli rolled on the ground and asked, "Xianxian, how old are you?"

Wei WuXian said, "Three years old."

Seeing that Jiang Yanli laughed, he sat up, thought for a while, and said, "Senior sister, I want to ask you something."

Jiang Yanli said, "Ask."

Wei Wuxian said, "Why do people like another person? I'm talking about that kind of liking."

Jiang Yanli was slightly startled and asked curiously: "Why are you asking me this? Do you like someone? What kind of girl is she?"

Wei Wuxian said, "No. I won't like anyone. At least don't like someone too much. Isn't this like putting a plow and a rein around your own neck?"

Jiang Yanli said: "Three is a bit older, maybe one."

Wei Wuxian said, "No, I'm three years old! Three-year-old Xianxian is hungry! What should I do!"

Jiang Yanli smiled and said, "There is soup in the kitchen, go and drink it. I wonder if Xianxian can get the stove?"

"If you can't reach Senior Sister, just pick me up and you can reach me..." Wei Wuxian was talking nonsense when Jiang Cheng walked into the ancestral hall and spat upon hearing the words: "Speaking such nonsense again! This sect master will serve you well and put it outside Come on, come down here, thank me, and then go out and drink your soup."

Wei Wuxian went out to take a look, then came back and said, "Jiang Cheng, what do you mean, where are the ribs?"

Jiang Cheng said, "We've finished eating. Only the lotus root is left. Do you like it or not?"

Wei Wuxian stabbed him with his elbow: "Spit out the ribs!"

Jiang Cheng said, "Spit it out if you want. If you can, I'll spit it out and you can eat it!"

Jiang Yanli heard that they were starting again and said hurriedly: "Okay, how old are you? Let's fight for a few spare ribs. I'll just make another one..."

Wei Wuxian likes Jiang Yanli's lotus root and pork ribs soup the most.

Not only does it taste really delicious, but also because he always remembers the first time he drank it.

At that time, Wei Wuxian had just been picked up from Yiling by Jiang Fengmian. As soon as he entered the door, he saw an arrogant young master running around on the school grounds with several puppies. He immediately covered his face with his hands and screamed. He clung to Jiang Fengmian for the whole day. Why? He also refused to come down. The next day, the puppies raised by Jiang Cheng were given away to others.

This incident made Jiang Cheng burst into tears. Even though Jiang Fengmian comforted him with kind words and told them to "be good friends", he refused to talk to Wei Wuxian. After a few days, Jiang Cheng's attitude softened a bit. Jiang Fengmian wanted to strike while the iron was hot, so he asked Wei Wuxian to live in the same house with him, hoping that they could strengthen their relationship.

Originally Jiang Cheng had reluctantly agreed, but the bad thing was that Jiang Fengmian was so happy that he lifted Wei Wuxian up and let him sit on his arm. Jiang Cheng was stunned when he saw this scene. Mrs. Yu sneered on the spot and walked away. Because the couple had important matters of their own and went out in a hurry, they didn't have time to quarrel again.

That night, Jiang Cheng locked Wei Wuxian out and refused to let him in.

Wei Wuxian knocked at the door and said, "Junior brother, junior brother, let me in, I want to sleep."

Jiang Cheng was in the room, leaning against the door and shouting: "Who is your junior brother! Give me back my concubine, give me back Jasmine, give me back my little love!"

Feifei, Jasmine, and Xiao Ai were all his original dogs. Wei Wuxian knew that Jiang Fengmian sent them away because of him, so he whispered, "I'm sorry. But...but I'm really afraid of them..."

In Jiang Cheng's memory, the total number of times Jiang Fengmian picked him up was no more than five times, each time making him happy for several months. There was a bad breath in his chest that couldn't be released, and he was filled with thoughts of "Why, why, why?". Suddenly, he saw an extra set of bedding that did not belong to him in the room that originally belonged to him. The bad breath and Unwillingness suddenly rushed to his head, forcing him to hug Wei Wuxian's mat and quilt. Wei Wuxian waited patiently by the door for a long time. Suddenly, the door opened. Before he could express his joy, he was hit by a pile of objects thrown out and almost fell down. The wooden door slammed shut again, and Jiang Cheng said from inside: "Go to sleep somewhere else! This is my room! Do you even want to rob my room?!"

At that time, Wei Wuxian had no idea what Jiang Cheng was angry about. He was stunned and said, "I didn't rob him. Uncle Jiang asked me to live with you."

When Jiang Cheng heard that he was still mentioning his father, it was as if he was deliberately showing off. His eyes turned red and he shouted, "Go away! If you let me see you again, I'll call a group of dogs to bite you!"

Wei Wuxian stood at the door. When he heard that a dog was about to bite him, he felt frightened. He wrung his hands and said quickly, "I'm going, I'm going. Don't call the dog!"

He dragged the thrown mats and quilts and ran out of the corridor. Not long after arriving at Lotus Pier, he didn't dare to jump up and down so quickly. He just stayed in the few places Jiang Fengmian asked him to stay all day long. He didn't know the road or the room, and he didn't dare to knock on the door casually for fear of being shocked. Whose dream. After thinking for a while, I walked to a windless corner of the wooden corridor, spread out a mat, and lay down here. But the more he lay down, the louder Jiang Cheng's words "I'll call a bunch of dogs to bite you" sounded in his mind. The more Wei Wuxian thought about it, the more frightened he became. He tossed and turned under the quilt, and every commotion felt like a pack of dogs. They came around quietly. After struggling for a while, he felt that he could no longer stay in this place, so he jumped up, rolled up the mat and folded the quilt, and escaped from Lotus Pier.

He ran panting in the night wind for a long time. When he saw a tree, he climbed up without thinking, hugging the trunk with his hands and feet. He felt that he was very high, and then he calmed down. He didn't know how long he had been hugging him in the tree, but suddenly, Wei Wuxian heard someone calling his name softly in the distance. The sound got closer and closer, and not long after, a girl in white appeared under the tree holding a lantern.

Wei Wuxian recognized that this was Jiang Cheng's sister and remained silent, hoping that she would not discover him. Who knows, Jiang Yanli said, "Is it A-Xian? What are you doing running up there?"

Wei Wuxian continued to remain silent. Jiang Yanli raised the lantern and said, "I saw you. Your shoes fell under the tree."

Wei Wuxian lowered his head and glanced at his left foot, then exclaimed in surprise: "My shoe!"

Jiang Yanli said: "Come down, let's go back."

Wei WuXian said, "I...I won't go down, there are dogs."

Jiang Yanli said: "A Cheng lied to you. There is no dog. You have no place to sit. Your hands will be sore after a while and you will fall off."

No matter what she said, Wei Wuxian just couldn't get down from the tree trunk. Jiang Yanli was afraid that he would fall, so he put the lantern under the tree, stretched out his hands and stood under the tree, not daring to leave. After a stalemate for about a stick of incense, Wei Wuxian's hand finally became sore and he let go of the tree trunk and fell down. Jiang Yanli hurried to pick him up, but Wei Wuxian still fell hard and rolled a few times. He hugged his leg and screamed: "My leg is broken!"

Jiang Yanli consoled her: "It's not broken, and it shouldn't be broken. Does it hurt? It doesn't matter. Don't move. I'll carry you back."

Wei Wuxian was still thinking about the dog and sobbed: "Dog...is the dog coming..."

Jiang Yanli promised again and again: "No, if there is a dog, I will help you drive it away." She picked up Wei Wuxian's shoes under the tree and said, "Why did the shoes fall off? Doesn't it fit?"

Wei Wuxian held back the tears of pain and said hurriedly: "No, it fits."

Actually, it doesn't fit. It's a bit too big. But this was the first new pair of shoes Jiang Fengmian had bought for him. Wei Wuxian was too embarrassed to bother him with buying another pair, so he didn't say too much. Jiang Yanli helped him put on his shoes, pinched the shriveled toes, and said, "It's a little too big. I'll change it with you when I get back."

After hearing this, Wei Wuxian felt that he had done something wrong again and felt a little uneasy.

The most fearful thing when living under someone else's roof is causing trouble for them.

Jiang Yanli carried him on his back and walked back, "Axian, no matter what Acheng told you just now, don't argue with him. He has a bad temper, and he often When he was playing alone at home, he liked the little puppies the best. They were sent away by his father, and he felt sad. In fact, he was very happy to have someone to accompany him. If you ran away and didn't come back for a long time, he was worried about you. Something happened and you were in a hurry to wake me up, so I came out to look for you."

Jiang Yanli was actually only two or three years older than him. He was only twelve or thirteen years old at the time. He was obviously a child himself, but he spoke naturally like a little adult and kept coaxing him. Her body was very thin, delicate, and not very strong. She would sway from time to time, and she would stop to hold up Wei Wuxian's thigh to prevent him from sliding down. However, Wei Wuxian felt unparalleled peace of mind lying on her back, even more peaceful than sitting on Jiang Fengmian's arm.

Suddenly, a burst of crying was blown by the night wind. Jiang Yanli trembled in fright and said, "What is the sound? Did you hear it?"

Wei Wuxian pointed his hand and said, "I heard it, it came from that pit!"

The two of them walked around the edge of the pit and carefully looked down. There was a small figure lying at the bottom of the pit. When he raised his face, two traces of tears washed out the plaster on his face, and he let out a choked voice: "...sister!"

Jiang Yanli breathed a sigh of relief and said, "A Cheng, didn't I ask you to call someone to come out and look for him together?"

Jiang Cheng just shook his head. After Jiang Yanli left, he waited for a while, became restless, and simply chased him out. Unexpectedly, I ran too fast and forgot to bring a lantern. I fell down halfway and fell into the bottom of a pit, breaking my head.

Jiang Yanli reached out to pull his brother up from the pit, took out a handkerchief and applied it to his bleeding forehead. Jiang Cheng looked sluggish, and his dark eyes secretly glanced at Wei Wuxian. Jiang Yanli said, "Is there something you haven't said to A-Xian?"

Jiang Cheng pressed the handkerchief on his forehead and said in a low voice: "...I'm sorry."

Jiang Yanli said, "I'll help A-Xian take the mat and quilt back later, okay?"

Jiang Cheng sniffed and said, "I've already taken it back."

Both of their legs were injured and they couldn't walk. They were still some distance away from Lotus Pier, so Jiang Yanli had to carry one on his back and hold the other in his arms. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng both had their arms around her neck. After walking a few steps, she was exhausted and panting, saying, "What do you want me to do?"

Both of them had tears in their eyes, and they both hugged her neck tighter in aggrieved manner.

In the end, she carried her two brothers back to Lotus Pier step by step, gently woke up the doctor, and asked him to bandage and treat Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng. Afterwards, I apologized and thanked several times, and then sent the doctor back. Jiang Cheng looked at Wei Wuxian's feet with a nervous expression. If other disciples or servants find out about this and it reaches Jiang Fengmian's ears, and Jiang Fengmian finds out that he threw Wei Wuxian's mat out and caused Wei Wuxian to hurt his leg, he will definitely dislike him even more. . This is why he only dared to chase it out by himself just now, but didn't dare to tell others. Wei Wuxian saw that he looked very worried and took the initiative: "Don't worry, I won't tell Uncle Jiang. I suddenly wanted to go out to climb a tree at night, so I got injured."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and swore, "Don't worry, I will help you get rid of dogs when you see them in the future!"

Seeing that the two finally talked to each other, Jiang Yanli said happily: "That's how it should be."

After struggling for half the night, the two of them were also hungry. Jiang Yanli went to the kitchen, worked on tiptoes for a while, and heated up a bowl of lotus root and pork ribs soup for each of them.

The fragrance lingers in my heart and still lingers.

Wei Wuxian squatted in the yard, put the empty bowl of soup on the ground, looked at the starry night sky for a while, and smiled.

Today he and Lan Wangji met by chance on Yunmeng Street, and suddenly he remembered many things that he didn't know about when he was studying in Yunshen.

He stopped Lan Wangji on a whim, originally wanting to steer the conversation in that direction. But Lan Wangji reminded him that everything was different from back then.

However, as long as he returned to Lotus Pier and returned to the Jiang family, he would have the illusion that nothing had changed.

Wei Wuxian suddenly wanted to find the tree he hugged back then.

He stood up and walked towards the outside of Lotus Pier. The disciples along the way bowed respectfully and nodded to him. They were all unfamiliar faces. The familiar junior brothers who were like monkeys and refused to walk properly, and the servants who winked and refused to salute honestly, were all gone.

Passing through the school grounds and stepping out of the gate of Lotus Pier, you will see a wide pier. No matter day or night, there are always vendors selling food on the pier. As soon as the oil in the pot fried, the aroma filled the air. Wei Wuxian couldn't help but walked over and said with a smile, "There's quite a lot of ingredients today."

The hawker also smiled and said, "Young Master Wei, please treat this as a gift from me, so there is no need to keep it in the account."

Wei WuXian said, "Come on. Let's keep the account as usual."

Next to the vendor, squatting was a dirty man. Before Wei Wuxian approached, he was holding his knees and shivering. He seemed to be cold and tired. After hearing Wei Wuxian say a few words, the man suddenly raised his head.

Wei Wuxian opened his eyes slightly and said, "You?!"
