After Li Mingyue accepted Li Zhu, Li Qi continued: "Meilan, Lan, Zhuju are with you. Your current situation requires someone to take care of you, and the four of them are in the middle stage of Guiyuan Realm, so they can help you deal with some things."
Just as Li Mingyue was about to refuse, Li Qi spoke first: "Don't worry, I'm much safer than you. If you don't want them to follow you, at least you have to wait until your injuries get better, then you can let them leave."
Li Qi had already said this, so of course Li Mingyue couldn't say anything else.
At this time, Li Qi said again: "The Queen Mother still has a sword in Tianshui Temple. If you go east and pass by Tianshui Temple, take it with you. It doesn't matter whether you send it to Zhenwu Mountain together or keep it."
Li Mingyue could only nod in agreement, because Li Qi would not let him refuse if he said it.
Afterwards, the two siblings had dinner and then sat together in front of the window and watched for a while.
Li Qi looked up at the sky. The night was dark, making people feel out of breath. She whispered: "It's going to snow. Tomorrow morning, the scenery in Haojing should be beautiful. After this heavy snow, those shady people will be there."
Yes, all the dirty things will cease to exist with this heavy snow."
Li Mingyue looked sideways at her, but hesitated to speak.
After sitting like this for a while, Li Qi stood up and said, "Okay, I have to go back. I won't see you off tomorrow."
Li Mingyue also stood up, sent Li Qi out of the restaurant, and then watched the carriage she was riding in disappear from sight.
Snowflakes began to fall in the night sky, not too big, just like when we were in Qingyuan Mountain.
There might be those fist-sized snowflakes that Scenery mentioned, but he probably couldn't see them, and neither did the little girl named Huang Qinghan. Maybe the little girl would think Scenery was lying to her, right?
Li Mingyue just stood on the street, coldly lost in thought.
Although the snowflakes were not big, they quickly fell on his shoulders. At this time, a palace maid came up, held an oil-paper umbrella for him, and gently brushed the snow off his body.
Li Mingyue asked: "Can we see you again?"
The palace maid paused for a moment, then said: "Young Master is from the mountains and has many choices. If you want to see him, you can naturally meet him again."
Li Mingyue was stunned, looked at the palace maid and asked: "Really?"
The palace maid smiled and nodded, and said: "Many things that seem to be out of control can actually be changed as long as you are willing, let alone someone like the young master."
Li Mingyue nodded and glanced at the empty street again. There were no pedestrians on the street, the lights had been on for a long time, and a thin layer of snow had been laid on it.
Li Mingyue coughed, stretched out her hand and pulled the fox fur on her body, turned around and walked back to the restaurant.
——
The next day.
As Li Qi said, the scenery in Haojing is indeed beautiful. Covered with a thin layer of snow, it looks like a fairyland.
When Li Mingyue walked down the restaurant, Scenery was already waiting outside the restaurant, so Li Mingyue asked directly: "Why are you here?"
Scenery smiled and said: "You have nothing to do, since there is no one in Haojing to see you off, so I will see you off."
Li Mingyue nodded.
Jingjing frowned and said: "Why do you look so bitter and resentful? A young man like you shouldn't be like this. You know, when you get older, you will have more things to worry about. At that time, you still have to worry about it."
Remarkable?"
Li Mingyue smiled slightly.
Jingjing continued: "Don't take it seriously. When you practice spiritual practice, your state of mind is very important. Your appearance now is the best proof. If you continue to accumulate resentment, it is not a trivial matter. Taoism says that being obsessed with madness is often the case.
similar situation."
Li Mingyue nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'm just a little emotional."
Jing Jing said: "Why don't you find a place to have a drink before leaving? In my opinion, there is nothing that a glass of wine cannot solve. If there is, then two glasses."
Li Mingyue shook her head and said: "Forget it, I don't want to die after leaving Haojing."
Jing Jing laughed loudly, took out a jade pendant, and said: "I have nothing to give you. I prepared this thing overnight. It is not an expensive gift, but there is a trace of sword energy in it. It is hard to say for a Grand Master, but for a Junior Grandmaster and below, it is enough to protect you."
It’s all right.”
He added: "Don't refuse, I've taken it all out, and with the way you are now, if you really meet a strong person, you will really be in trouble."
Li Mingyue took it and said, "Thank you."
Scenery smiled and said: "Being polite to me means you're a stranger, right?"
Li Mingyue asked: "The Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce is not making things difficult for you, right?"
Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I'm used to it. It's nothing more than preaching. What else can you do to me."
Li Mingyue stopped talking and stepped onto the carriage.
Three of the four maids got on their horses, one got on the carriage, and the group of six people just rolled through the thin snow and headed east.
However, the carriage stopped before it left the city. Under the city tower, Wu Ziqi was already waiting.
The palace maid opened the curtain and then helped Li Mingyue get out of the carriage.
Li Mingyue looked at Wu Ziqi and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that I actually have two friends in this Haojing city."
Wu Ziqi said nothing, as if he didn't know what to say.
Li Mingyue walked up to him and walked side by side with Wu Ziqi, walking out of the city together.
Li Mingyue asked: "Has everything been arranged?"
Wu Ziqi nodded and said: "Master Imperial Master is in charge of everything. I don't have to do anything. I just need to execute it step by step."
Li Mingyue nodded and said nothing.
Li Mingyue didn't speak, and Wu Ziqi didn't speak either, but he held two rulers in his hands and seemed to be hesitating.
After leaving the city, he still took out the two rulers and handed them to Li Mingyue: "You also know that I have nothing to offer, this..."
Li Mingyue refused directly and said: "I don't dare to ask for this thing."
Wu Ziqi was stunned.
Li Mingyue had no intention of explaining. She smiled and waved her hand: "When you wake up, go back quickly. Although your future has been decided, I also know that you still have to participate in this autumn."
Wu Ziqi looked at the two rulers and frowned slightly.
I finally made up my mind to take it out, but I was rejected.
Li Mingyue stood on the carriage and looked back at the huge Haojing. Unfortunately, the city had high walls and thick walls, so she couldn't see anything. Then she got into the carriage and continued heading east.
Wu Ziqi watched the carriage disappear, and then turned around and walked back to the city. But just as he entered the city, he saw an old man standing there, and he hurriedly saluted: "Student has met Mr."
When he saluted, he still held two square rulers in his hands.
The old man clicked his tongue and said, "I'm so willing to give it up."
Wu Ziqi suddenly looked embarrassed, as if he wanted to explain something to this gentleman, but found that he didn't know how to explain.
Wu Ziqi may be a person who is not good at words, a gentleman who is not good at words. A gentleman can be bad at words, but a person who is not good at words must be a gentleman.
The old man sighed and said, "How are you preparing for Qiu Wei?"
Seeing that Mr. Wu had no intention of blaming him, Wu Ziqi put away the two rulers and said, "Everything is ready."
The old man nodded and said: "After Qiu Wei, I will enter the palace. I can't do things like this again in the future. Think about everything again and again, and you will never make a mistake."
Wu Ziqi nodded in agreement.
On the other side of the imperial city, there was a woman wearing a large yellow dragon robe standing on the city wall, looking to the east. The entire scenery of Haojing was in full view, but the young man could not be seen.
This kind of scenery would be great if two people could see it together.
——
On the carriage, Li Mingyue looked at the palace maids who were sitting quietly opposite. Regarding these four people, he had no idea who was "Plum" and who was "Orchid". Naturally, he didn't know who was "Bamboo" and "Chrysanthemum".
Li Mingyue asked: "The snow in Haojing is really as big as a fist?"
The palace maid in the carriage was stunned, as if she did not expect that Li Mingyue would suddenly ask such a question, but she still replied: "Yes, but very few, and it is not this time of year. I will have to wait for about a month."
Li Mingyue nodded and said, "Okay, I can't see it anymore."
The palace maid was stunned.
Li Mingyue continued: "But at least it means that guy didn't lie."
The palace maid asked: "Master, are you talking about the Scenery, Wind and Sword Immortal?"
Li Mingyue nodded and asked, "Do you know him?"
The palace maid nodded and said, "I used to have a lot of dealings with the empress."
Li Mingyue asked: "What kind of person do you think he is?"
The palace maid was stunned. This time, she was really stunned.
Li Mingyue seemed to know her worries and said with a smile: "Just say it, he can't hear it. Even if he hears it, what can he do to us?"
The palace maid then said: "Feng Jianxian is a very interesting person."
Li Mingyue was stunned. After waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for the other party to continue speaking, so he asked: "No more?"
The palace maid nodded and said, "No more."
Li Mingyue smiled bitterly, because he found that he didn't know how to evaluate that man. In the end, it seemed that he could only say the word "interesting".
Li Mingyue asked: "How far is Tianshui Temple?"
The palace maid then replied: "If you can arrive before noon, you can have dinner at Tianshui Temple."
Li Mingyue nodded and stopped talking.
But the maid said: "Master, can you tell me about Qingyuan Mountain?"
Li Mingyue was stunned.
At this time, a woman's laughter came from outside, and she explained: "Sister, she has always admired the old immortal Chen. Now that she meets the young master, she will not let him go easily."
Li Mingyue was stunned, and then said: "Qingyuan Mountain actually has nothing to say, it is just an ordinary sect. As for Chen Daoling..."
He pondered for a moment and said: "Just like the scenery, after all these years, I still don't understand what kind of person he is."
The palace maid was a little stunned, as if she didn't expect to get such an answer.
Li Mingyue thought she didn't believe it, so she said, "It's true."
The palace maid nodded quickly and said, "I believe it."
The carriage continued to move forward, and indeed arrived at Tianshui Temple before noon, and did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
In fact, Tianshui Temple is not a very big Taoist temple, and it does not have many disciples. The mountain is certainly not very high. To put it bluntly, it is not half as high as Qingyuan Mountain, and it is almost as high as the temple on that mountain.
Because the roads to Tianshui Temple are all stairs, carriages cannot go up the mountain, so you naturally need to hike up.
After Li Mingyue got off the carriage, she was still supported by the palace maid. The other three palace ladies also dismounted and walked towards the mountain together, leaving only the groom behind to look after the carriage.
On the mountain path, a Taoist boy was cleaning the snow on the steps. After seeing Li Mingyue and others, he ran over with a broom and saluted: "I have met the four senior sisters."
The palace maid said: "Go and report and ask the temple owner to prepare some food. We will leave after eating."
The little Taoist boy was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement, and ran directly towards the mountain, walking as fast as flying, and soon disappeared.
Li Mingyue and the other five continued to climb. They didn't go very far when Li Mingyue took a deep breath and waved her hands: "No, no, let's rest for a while."
The palace maid took out a silk scarf and spread it on the ground.
After Li Mingyue sat down, she said bitterly: "I never expected that I, Li Mingyue, would have such a miserable day."
None of the four maids spoke.
Li Mingyue looked down the stairs. The snow on both sides of the mountain path was not completely covered with flowers. The blue moon and white colors were mixed together, which was a special flavor. At this moment, Li Mingyue seemed to have returned to Qingyuan Mountain, sitting on the side of Qingyuan Mountain.
On top of the mountain.
After a while, Li Mingyue asked: "What are your names?"
The four people spoke one after another.
Li Mingyue looked at the four people, matched their names, and said with a smile: "Did your name come from my mother?"
The four of them nodded at the same time.
Li Mingyue asked again: "If you follow me, do you know what dangers there will be?"
The four of them nodded at the same time.
Li Mingyue added: "So you can stay and you don't have to follow me. My sister won't blame you."
The four of them said at the same time: "We are not afraid."
Li Mingyue said: "But you are Taoist disciples after all."
The four of them were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other. The palace maid named Mei who had been taking care of Li Mingyue said: "We only recognize the empress."
Li Mingyue said nothing, got up and continued to go up the mountain. He also stopped walking after a while, and kept walking and resting like this. He walked and rested four times before arriving at Tianshui Temple.
In front of the gate of Tianshui Temple, there is a huge stone tablet. The stone tablet is engraved with dense regular scripts. Li Mingyue was attracted by these small scripts at a glance, because these handwritings were similar to the letter he read at the beginning. They were obviously written by the same person.
The hand is his mother.
…
Two hundred words. It’s too late, so I’ll make up for it.
Li Mingyue asked again: "If you follow me, do you know what dangers there will be?"
The four of them nodded at the same time.
Li Mingyue added: "So you can stay and you don't have to follow me. My sister won't blame you."
The four of them said at the same time: "We are not afraid."
Li Mingyue said: "But you are Taoist disciples after all."
The four of them were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other. The palace maid named Mei who had been taking care of Li Mingyue said: "We only recognize the empress."
Li Mingyue said nothing, got up and continued to go up the mountain. He also stopped walking after a while, and kept walking and resting like this. He walked and rested four times before arriving at Tianshui Temple.
