The moonlight shone into the room, making it much gentler.
I took off my coat and lay down on the soft bed. Soon, he fell asleep.
I quickly familiarized myself with the Ice Mystic Sect. This place is very big, but there are very few people here. It was said that most of the disciples who had graduated had gone down the mountain to gain experience. Shui Xuanyue spent every day reading letters and cultivating. She also read books every night. Leaving me behind was extremely boring. However, his relationship with Shui Xuanyue was improving. Although this person looked cold on the surface, he was very kind and attentive on the inside.
In the past month, I've been playing around with cats and dogs. Shui Xuanyue frowned when she found out about it. She must have known that I couldn't be idle, so she let me do whatever I wanted. I never understood why Shui Xuanyue treated me so well even though she knew that I was Murong Xi's friend. She even kept me by her side and said that I was her personal servant. However, everyone knows that I was treated the best in the entire Ice Mystic Sect.
"Scarface, where did your young master go? Why isn't he back yet?" Bored, I dropped my feet into the lake and teased her.
Scarface was a person with an ugly scar on his face. His scar was cut by his teacher's knife when he was practicing martial arts when he was young. From then on, he was honest and ruthless. Now, we're already very familiar with each other. At first, he would pretend to ignore me when I called him Scarface, but later on, it became very natural.
"I don't know. If you are tired, go back to your room and rest.”
" That won't do..." I looked at him with a bitter face." He will pick me up and help him change his clothes. It's better to wait here than to be woken up from a beautiful dream."”
Scarface smiled and ignored me.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and saw Shui Xuanyue walking over.
I put on my shoes and stood up.”
As he spoke, he walked into the house. I followed behind him." My father will be back tomorrow." He turned around the corridor." That's why I'm a little late today."”
I walked over and lit a candle for him.
He waved his hand and said,"You go to sleep first. Wake me up early tomorrow."”After saying that, he opened a large pile of letters and began to read them. Then, he flipped through the books and compared them.
I sat by the bed and wanted to wait for him to change his clothes, but I was already too sleepy. The candlelight and his figure became more and more blurry in my eyes.
The next day, just as the sky was slightly bright, I woke up and patted the bed."I'm up, I'm up!" Then, she got up and brought him the black clothes.
He rubbed his eyes and asked me in a daze,"When is it?"
I looked at the sky.
He waved his hand and sat up.
I could only get up and put on my clothes in a daze. I helped him put on his clothes and asked,"When did you sleep yesterday?"
"Zi Shi."
So he had only slept for six hours? I looked at him worriedly. I didn't know how terrifying this Sect Master was. The usually fearless Shui Xuanyue had actually stayed up all night to work for so long.
" After dinner, don't go anywhere, and don't ask anyone to bring you herbs. Follow me to the main hall and wait for Father to come back." He pondered for a moment," I'll get someone to dress you up."”
"Hmm? So formal?" I looked at the yellow pea cake in front of me strangely and thought, It's just that his father is back. Is there a need to be so formal?
"When you see my father later, don't say anything. I'm here for everything." He instructed her again.
I was shocked to realize what kind of person this was! When the son saw the father, it was as if he had seen a ghost!
We waited in the main hall until it was time for the sun to rise before we saw a large group of people enter through the door. Shui Xuanyue stood up and lowered her head slightly. I also stood up, not daring to breathe too loudly.
The leader walked into the hall and sat down on the main seat at the top."I'm back. How's everything at home?”
" Everything is fine," Shui Xuanyue replied." Father just came back from the outside. I wonder if he is healthy."”
That person's hearty laughter resounded throughout the hall."My son, Xuan Yue, is really grown up. Father has been away from home for nearly half a year, and the family is doing very well.”Suddenly, he asked,"Yue 'er, who is that lady beside you?"”
I silently cursed. What sacred? He was just freeloading.
" It's a friend's sister," Shui Xuanyue replied." She wants me to take care of her for a few months."”
"Come here, let me take a look."”
I raised my head nervously and looked at Shui Xuanyue. He was obviously shocked as well. He didn't expect his father to ask me to go over. However, he still nodded secretly.
I lowered my head and walked over until a pair of black shoes appeared in front of me. That person pulled me over and sized me up carefully. At the same time, I sized him up carefully. Although he was old, he could still see the elegance of his youth.
The man suddenly laughed. Does Yue Er like it?"
"I don't think so, but it's very good," Shui Xuanyue replied hurriedly.”
I wondered, who does he look like?
The Sect Master smiled at me,"How has Yue Er been treating you?"”
"Shui Xuanyue treats me quite well."”
The sect master nodded and let me walk back. Then, he asked Shui Xuanyue,"Have there been any unusual movements from the various sects recently?”
Shui Xuanyue hesitated." On the surface, it looks normal. However, I feel that things are not as calm as they seem. I'm afraid that the matter of choosing a new lord has already stirred up this mess."”
The Sect Master also said,"Father has also felt it these days."”
" Father." Shui Xuanyue suddenly knelt down and said," Your son was incompetent and failed to protect the 10,000-year-old ice. Murong Xi stole it."”
The Sect Master narrowed his eyes and said to Shui Xuanyue,""Murong Xi…I understand. This is indeed your fault. However, I have an important matter to hand over to you, so I won't punish you for now.”
"Thank you, Father." Shui Xuanyue heaved a sigh of relief.
"I investigated openly and secretly, and finally found out that three years ago, Mu Yili and the others fled to an isolated island overseas. Father orders you to kill Mu Yili personally. I want to see her alive, and I want to see her corpse if she's dead."
"Yes, I am. His son would set off for the island tomorrow.”Shui Xuanyue suddenly glanced at me.
I understood and immediately said,"I want to go too!"”
"Young Lady also wants to go? Does Young Lady know that this trip is dangerous?" The sect master smiled and sized me up.
I nodded.”'What a joke. You're a terrifying father without Shui Xuanyue around. I don't want to stay here alone.'
"Alright then, I'll let Yue 'er protect you. When you return, I will prepare a banquet for you.”He suddenly waved his hand and left the hall.
Shui Xuanyue looked at me with a complicated expression and said," I don't know if I should bring you along. It's very dangerous if I go. However, I'm afraid that something else will happen if I leave you here alone."”
" It doesn't matter." I smiled and walked out with him." I have no one to rely on anyway. If I go with you, I'll at least live comfortably. It's better than facing your father every day."”
He heaved a sigh of relief and nodded at me."Then go back and pack up. We'll set off tomorrow. You go back to the Moon Pavilion first. I still have some things to do.”
I could only walk around the Moon Pavilion alone. Scarface was actually standing there alone. I always thought that he and the other black clothed man were together. "Scarface!”My hand patted his back, giving him a fright.
"Ah, Miss Xia." Scarface turned around and saw that it was me, so he immediately lowered his head.
"Yes, where is that person? Why isn't he standing with you?"
"The young sect master gave him some instructions. Miss Xia came back so early? Has the sect master returned?"
"Yes, Shui Xuanyue's father is a fierce man. He may be smiling on the surface, but there's a terrifying aura about him.”I looked at the sun and smiled before returning to my room.
I've been living with Shui Xuanyue for the past month. Even though no one in the Ice Mystic Sect said anything, I still felt awkward. When the two of us were alone, we would occasionally feel awkward. Now that we were about to leave, we really couldn't bear to leave.
Even though I have my own blanket, I would still snatch Shui Xuanyue's blanket from time to time. Because he always hung the blanket on the bed, I kicked my own blanket down. When it was cold, I had to snatch his.
She was really reluctant to part with this place. He didn't know if he would come back.
I asked Mei Li to bring the poison and other things I usually fiddle with to the Crescent Pavilion. We're leaving tomorrow, so we have to be fully prepared. After picking and choosing for a long time, he brought a bag of poison needles, a few pain pills, some hemostatic medicine, and finally, he held a red pill for a long time without making up his mind. I've been concocting this pill for a long time. It can cause a person to fake their death. After seven days, they will wake up like an ordinary person, but they will be thinner. However, within seven days, not even the Great Overarching Immortal would know that he was dead!
The moon was especially bright tonight. I stole a glance at Shui Xuanyue, who was sleeping soundly as usual. Hehe, I really couldn't fall asleep, so I got up and tiptoed to the door to put on my shoes. He walked to the entrance of the main hall and went around to the back of the Crescent Pavilion. I've been here a few times since then, but it's always during the day. She didn't expect the lotus flowers to be so beautiful at night.
I sat on the steps and stared blankly at the sky.
Do modern people look at the same moon as me?
"When will the bright moon appear? I ask the blue sky with wine. I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky. I want to go back with the wind, but I am afraid that the high place is too cold to dance and clear the shadow, which seems to be in the world. Turn to the vermilion pavilion, low Qi door, light sleepless, should not have regret, why long to say goodbye to the round. People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has its ups and downs. It is difficult to complete this matter since ancient times. I hope that people will live long and live thousands of miles together.”
I couldn't help but sing Faye Wong's "Wishing We Last Forever." Su Shi's words, coupled with Faye Wong's melodious voice, were really pleasant to hear. Unfortunately, she could no longer hear them.
"Ji 'er." A voice rang out behind him.
I turned around and saw Shui Xuanyue standing behind me. He walked over and sat down beside me."You know how to sing such a good song?”
