Lights on the other side

Li Ruoci has been in Wuxitian for more than a month, and everything is calm.

Li Ruoci also gradually figured out how to live here. He asked the subordinate in black for his name, and he said it was Cen Jiu. Two three four five six seven □□ so named.Li Ruoci thinks this is also in line with Yun Liujin's character.

Cen Jiu was the middleman between him and Lian Yetian. Li Ruoci was quite satisfied with his character, he was taciturn and did things without delay.

He has nothing to do in his daily life. After practicing the exercises a little, he just stays with Xie Yun, playing chess, reading books and so on.

Every ten days in the Wuxitian, there will be a talk with the elders. The elders on the seat talk about something: "The sky lasts forever. The reason why the sky and the earth can last forever is because they don't grow on their own, so they can live forever."

"When the Dao is abolished, there is benevolence and righteousness. When wisdom comes out, there is great hypocrisy."

"Gentle your back, don't get your body, walk in your court, don't see your person, there is no blame."

After this lecture or that lecture, the disciples in the audience listen, some are engrossed, some are absent-minded, some are drowsy.

Xie Yun experienced all three of these, and finally reached the point where he was about to fall asleep.

An elder's eyes swept over here, Li Ruoci touched an orange and threw it at him in order to remind him, but with too much strength, he missed his aim, passed directly over Xie Yun, and hit the head of the person in front of him, and then Tangerine rolled down.

The man obviously didn't expect this innocent disaster, picked up the oranges and looked back, Li Ruoci hastily shifted his eyes to avoid the embarrassment of their eyes intersecting.

But I didn't want to, the elder's eyes were very good, he saw what happened here at a glance, and said loudly: "Pei Shi, and you...what's your name?"

He pointed at Li Ruoci.

"Lin Ruoyan."

Xie Yun, who was awakened by this incident, just opened his eyes and saw this scene, and quickly answered for him.

"What were you two sneaking about just now?"

Pei Shi was a little dazed, he glanced at the orange in his hand, then at Li Ruoci, frowning in confusion.

Seeing that the two of them did not answer, one of the elders said: "Forget it, you two, reflect for three days in Zangshu Pavilion."

Pei Shi got up slowly without any excuse, and walked out unsteadily, followed by Li Ruoci.

The Zangshu Pavilion is very large. It is said that there are tens of millions of volumes of books. There is a long burning lamp inside, and the lamp is covered with a transparent cover. It seems that it is afraid of accidental fire.

The two faced each other in the cabinet, Pei Shi frowned and said, "Why did you throw me?"

Li Ruoci said casually: "I see that you don't like me all the time, so I want to give you an orange as a token of my goodwill."

He and Pei Shi have been seeing each other for so many days, but they don't talk much, and they don't have a good impression of each other.

Now that the two of them are inevitably in the same space, Li Ruoci wonders if he can let go of his guard.

"You can eat it. The newly bought one is quite sweet. I tasted it."

"..."

Pei Shi's expression was complicated.

Seeing this, Li Ruoci also felt bored, so he walked to a place, took out a book, and began to flip through it casually.

Pei Shi had been catching up on sleep just now, and was suddenly woken up by an orange. He didn't realize it. Now that he's awake, he doesn't know what the person opposite him meant.

He looked at the orange in his hand, peeled two pieces and put it in his mouth, it was really sweet.

At night, the lights of Zangshu Pavilion were turned off, and in the darkness, only a few stars leaked from the windows.

The night was slightly cold, and in the darkness, Li Ruoci leaned against the bookshelf behind him and couldn't fall asleep.

"you……"

Pei Shi paused.

"Want to go out?"

"Ok?"

"Staying here is too boring."

"Where?"

Pei Shi stood up, lit a spell between his fingers, and walked to the back of the library.

There is a small secret door behind the library, and the lock on it has rusted.Pei Shi casually pulled down and opened it.

The two walked out, and after a while, they saw a vast sea of ​​clouds.

Below the sea of ​​clouds is a cliff.

"Look carefully, there are stone steps here, just walk over."

Pei Shi stepped up, and the two walked to the middle without incident.

Li Ruoci glanced at Pei Shi, thoughtful, then slipped and fell straight down.

The wind came from bottom to top, the sea of ​​clouds churned, and a cold aura enveloped him.

He completely gave up control of his body, but his eyes passed through layers of clouds and mist, watching the figure in white above.

Until he saw that white robe came down with him, a fleeting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he closed his eyes.

A hand picked up his waist, and it took a long time for the warmth to come back.

He was lying on a piece of grass, where the grass seemed to be up to his waist. Pei Shi found a slightly flat place and put him down.

Li Ruoci slowly opened his eyes, and Pei Shi's cool hand touched his neck.

"Your breath is a little unstable."

"Ah."

"Lie down first."

Pei Shi sat beside him, the wind blew gently, the grass swayed and made a rustling sound.

"You're not scared, are you?"

"A bit."

Li Ruoci moved his shoulders, adjusted his posture, and said, "It happened too suddenly."

"Feel sorry."

"It's nothing, I was too careless."

After lying down for a while, Li Ruoci and Pei Shi stood up together.

When they got up, there was a strong wind, and the clothes of the two were blown up and down. At the same time, thousands of fireflies rose from the grass.

Li Ruoci was a little shocked.

Pei Shi explained: "There are many fireflies living here all year round."

He stretched out his hand, and one of them fell into his palm neatly.

"Would you like to see it?"

"no need."

Pei Shi chuckled, raised his hand, and the bug flew up again.

Seeing Pei Shi continue to walk forward, Li Ruoci asked, "What do you want to do?"

Pei Shi looked back at him and said, "Go drink, come?"

"If someone invites you, go naturally."

The two sat down in a tavern in Yinzhou, and Pei Shi began to order.

"How about this spicy crab?"

Li Ruoci glanced at it and said, "It's too spicy."

"What about this salty glutinous rice cake?"

"Too salty."

"Snow glutinous rice? I know you must think it's too sweet. The people who will live with you in the future will be really hard."

Can't tell if it's a joke or sarcasm.

In the end, the two ordered a few light dishes and a jar of sake, one for you and one for me. They sat here until dawn, and then quietly went back to Cangshu Pavilion.

Three days later, the two were released from the Library Pavilion, and Tang Yuanchu came to see Li Ruoci and brought some cakes he had made.

"This is for Ah Yan. I know that Ah Yan has a bland taste, so I didn't put much sugar."

"Thank you."

After staying for a while, Tang Yuanchu was still standing there, not knowing what he was waiting for.

Li Ruoci was a little strange.

Tang Yuanchu faltered and said, "Can you give this... to Pei Shi?"

She took out another red lacquer food box from behind her.

Li Ruoci always felt that Tang Yuanchu was very generous to others, but when she came to Pei Shi's place, she was always shy.

Seeing this, he felt a little strangely uncomfortable.

"it is good."

After Tang Yuanchu left, he took the food box and knocked on Pei Shi's door.

"Who? Come in."

Pei Shi's room was very clean, and there was a fragrance of aquatic plants.

This is very inconsistent with Pei Shi's usual casual attitude, but considering that his clothes are also spotless, as white as snow, it makes sense.

Pei Shizheng was in the house with another disciple.

Li Ruoci put the food box on his table and wanted to go out.

But he found that Pei Shi's eyes moved back and forth between him and the food box.

"Why...why did you send me this?"

"It's not me, it's Miss Yuan."

The disciple on the side laughed and said, "Pei Shi, you are really attractive to girls, as was the little cook last time, and so is Miss Tang this time."

Pei Shi said helplessly: "Stop making trouble, talk about Fengzhou, since Lin Ruoyan is here, let him be."

Li Ruoci stopped when he heard the words, and said, "What's the matter?"

Pei Shidao: "Something happened in Fengzhou. Although there are people from Sanxuntian there, the situation is not very good. The elders want a few more people to go."

Li Ruoci pushed open the door, and Pei Shi said behind him, "By the way, let's call Xie Yun."

At night, Xie Yun came back from playing outside.

Xie's family is a well-known merchant in Wutang Town. It is said that Tang Yuanchu's sister is also the daughter of his family's servants. They are very rich, so Xie Yun's life is eating, drinking and having fun every day.

It is estimated that his parents' expectations of him are not limited to eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.

Seeing him come back, Li Ruoci first shared half of the cakes with him, and then told Xie Yun that they were going to seal the city with Pei Shi tomorrow.

When Xie Yun heard this, he didn't want to eat the pastry, and the spoon hit the plate with a "bang".

He wanted to cry but said without tears: "Why did you agree? Do you know that every time Pei Shi deals with something abnormal? If you go with him, don't you just die?"

Li Ruoci didn't care much about this kind of thing, and he wasn't too sensitive whether it was dangerous or not, so he comforted him, "Isn't it?"

"Why not? Last time, fortunately, I begged the elders for a long time, so I didn't directly face the bloodthirsty demon leader Lian Yetian. Last time, I went with him, and when I came back, I lay on the bed for three or four days. I almost died. Half-Life!"

Seeing that Li Ruoci did not speak, Xie Yun continued: "Do you know the third son Lianyetian?"

Li Ruoci hummed lightly.

"He was the one who fought with Pei Shi last time! You don't know how vicious he is. There are more than 100 people in Lingyundu Su's family, and he didn't let anyone go. They all died in terrible conditions. Not only that, he also Killed many Xianmen disciples, just in case, just in case..."

"What if?"

"What if we run into him again?"

"Will not."

Xie Yun pulled Li Ruoci's sleeve and begged, "If you say no, you won't? Go tell the elders, don't let us go, okay?"

Li Ruoci pulled up the clothes that were about to be pulled off by Xie Yun as usual, and refused: "No."

Xie Yun screamed: "If I die from now on, it will be all your fault!"
