Chapter 83: Fall in love

The shadows were getting closer and closer to Lu Qingjiu, and Lu Qingjiu slowly backed away until his foot tripped over something in the grass, staggering and almost falling.
Lu Qingjiu lowered his head and saw the object that tripped him. It was a shrine made of stone. At first glance, it looked like a small pavilion with a human-shaped statue in the center of the pavilion. If you look closely, you will find that the appearance of this statue is somewhat similar to Yin Xun.
Lu Qingjiu's gaze fell on the shrine. I don’t know if it was his illusion. He always felt that the stone figure carved on the shrine was very rough, but it was alive and well, as if it was about to become a real person next moment. It seems like going up and down.
Lu Qingjiu heard the slight footsteps on the weeds coming from behind him. He turned his head and saw Zhuo Run standing not far from him, with a calm expression on his face and closed eyes, but he seemed to be staring at Lu. Sake. The shadows that had forced Lu Qingjiu here have also disappeared, only the breeze blowing, blowing in the weeds, making a rustling sound.
"What do you want to tell me?" Lu Qingjiu said, "Or do you want to get something from me?" He is not afraid of boiled leap, perhaps because his blood is in his body, he is seeing the unrecognizable prisoner dragon being punished. At that time, there was no fear in my heart, only pity and doubts remained.
Zhuo Run opened his mouth. Lu Qingjiu thought he was going to speak, but he only uttered hoarse syllables. He showed helplessness and walked to Lu Qingjiu's face, and motioned to Lu Qingjiu to pass him his hand as before.
Lu Qingjiu complied.
Just now when he saw the tablet at Yin Xun's home fell, Lu Qingjiu remembered a small detail that he had forgotten before. When I met Xuanyu that time, Yin Xun was unfortunately turned into a scarecrow, but Bai Yuehu hurried over to help Yin Xun renew the incense. Seeing his proficiency, he obviously knew how to continue the incense. According to the life span of the white moon fox, he might even know Lu Qingjiu's grandmother, but he never mentioned that his mother's tablet was in it... …And the word "go" written in the palm of his hand by Zhuo Run who had avoided Bai Yuehu.
Why did Bo Run let him go? What is he worried about? Are you worried about Shuifu Village or White Moon Fox?
Lu Qingjiu didn't want to doubt his cute vixen, but he always felt that Bai Yuehu had concealed too much from him.
Maybe he doesn't know that the truth is a good thing for him, because he is just an ordinary human being without the power of a chicken, but when he returned to Shuifu Village, he came for the truth. He now knew that his parents didn't die of the mudslide, but he couldn't find more clues to explore the real cause of their deaths.
Biao Run slowly wrote in Lu Qingjiu's hands: "I don't want anything, I just want you to leave here."
Lu Qingjiu: "Because of the White Moon Fox?"
Sui Run hesitated for a while, but actually nodded.
Lu Qingjiu's heart was cold, he licked his lips, and said dumbly: "Has he...had he done anything?"
Bo Run was silent.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Lu Qingjiu could only guess by himself. His mind turned so fast that he even thought of a speculation that made him feel both reasonable and absurd: "White Moon Fox, is my grandma's new tenant?" he asked When this problem arises, slow down the speed of your speech while observing the expression on Boorun's face.
As expected, Bo Run's expression slowly tightened, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly. Finally, he raised his index finger and wrote a word in Lu Qingjiu's palm stroke by stroke: Yes.
Lu Qingjiu closed his eyes and digested this fact. He said, "So he met my mother?"
Boilun continued to write: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu said: "He also knows what happened back then?"
Yao Run hesitated this time: "No, he only knows part, and he doesn't know the other part..."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Which part?"
Yao Run wrote: "About your mother and father, the real cause of death."
Speaking of this crucial point, Lu Qingjiu's heart beat wildly. For the first time he felt that the truth was so close to him. He desperately wanted to know that this village is gentle on weekdays, but occasionally shows hideous features. Here, what kind of story is hidden, he hurriedly said: "My parents, how did they die?"
Zhuo Run wrote: "I ate your mother."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
Bo Run said: "This is true."
Biao Run had admitted this before, but Lu Qingjiu still refused to believe it. He didn’t believe that his seemingly gentle grandfather would do such a thing. Besides, Baiyue Fox said that the polluted dragon only Will uncontrollably eat his favorite things, he said: "You were forced to do this?"
Zhuorun no longer wrote, he gently touched Lu Qingjiu's head, with a sad and loving expression, and then, in Lu Qingjiu's disappointed eyes, he shook his head.
Lu Qingjiu fell silent...This was completely different from what he thought.
Zhuo Run wrote: "But even though I ate her, she did not die. People who are contaminated will never die. Their souls will only continue to wander and contaminate other things." He said, " So they can only suppress their souls. Have you seen those tablets? Those tablets are human souls that have been polluted."
Lu Qingjiu: "Then you want to extinguish the incense candles, do you want to release these souls?"
Zhuorun laughed faintly. He couldn't see Lu Qingjiu, he could only feel the outline of Lu Qingjiu's cheeks with his fingers, and felt his only remaining relative in the world: "You know, after being polluted, I I realized they were wrong."
"Wrong?" Lu Qingjiu was stunned.
Yao Run wrote: "The guardian dies, the dragon will not be contaminated."
Lu Qingjiu stayed in a daze. He remembered that Baiyue Fox said one thing before, that the Dragon Race has a high probability of being contaminated after the Guardian's death, but why the words of Bo Leap are so sure that the Guardian's death and the Dragon Race It doesn't matter to be polluted.
"This is a wonderful misunderstanding." Zhu Run wrote, "Everyone thinks that if the guardian is dead, the dragon will be contaminated, but it is not at all."
Lu Qingjiu listened blankly.
Biao Run wrote: "In fact, all contaminated dragons have another characteristic."
Lu Qingjiu asked in shock: "What, what do you mean?"
Born wanted to talk, but suddenly felt something. He turned his head slightly, his hair began to turn red, and then put his lips to Lu Qingjiu's ear, and said a whisper that only they could hear: "White Moon Fox Like you, what about you."
Lu Qingjiu: "..."
Bo Run said: "What do you think, my lovely grandson-Lu Qingjiu."
Lu Qingjiu looked at Biao Run again. His hair was completely red. Compared with his black hair, he did not have the gentle and jade temperament at all. He looked evil and mad, he could talk. , Just the words spoken made Lu Qingjiu cold all over his body.
"Do you have any special thoughts about him?" Zhu Run said, "Will you want to have him? Will you be jealous?" His words were like a curse, "I'm starting to look forward to it."
After saying this, he abruptly got up and jumped away from here, the next moment, a sharp weapon stab at his location.
"Stay away from him!" I don't know when, Bai Yuehu appeared on the mountain path. It seems that because of the use of power, he has grown that long black hair, which is now rising with the wind, like A black wing. He looked at Lu Qingjiu with some worry in his eyes. He beckoned to Lu Qingjiu and said, "Sake, come here."
Lu Qingjiu actually heard the taste of guilty conscience from Baiyuehu's tone. Baiyuehu was actually worried, worried that Lu Qingjiu would not pass. He must also know that Lu Qingjiu knew more about the past from the boiled mouth. , Knowing that he was also a guest of grandma's.
"Don't go, you will be killed by him." Borun said to Lu Sake with a hoarse voice.
Lu Qingjiu took a look at Borun, and walked towards Baiyuehu without hesitation.
Boiled his teeth and stared at Lu Sake's back: "Lu Sake! You will regret it!"
Lu Qingjiu did not look back. He was always a person who knew exactly what he wanted. Otherwise, he would not quit his job and return to a remote mountain village because of an ambiguous hexagram. Everyone has his own way to go. Lu Qingjiu didn't mind the way he was on the road. There were other people accompanying him on this road.
When Bai Yuehu saw Lu Qingjiu return to his side, he was obviously relieved. He wanted to say something to Lu Qingjiu, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to say it.
Zhuo Run's expression was cold, and the polluted him was obviously full of hostility towards Baiyue Fox, but it seemed that because Lu Qingjiu was there, he didn't say anything in the end, so he turned and left.
Lu Qingjiu looked at Boiled's back and asked Bai Yuehu: "Aren't you chasing it?"
Bai Yuehu shook his head: "This is not my job."
Lu Qingjiu: "But..."
Bai Yuehu interrupted Lu Qingjiu: "If Yin Xun hadn't called me, you would have been taken away by him. Why don't you tell me if you want to come here?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Because I think the person who put out the candle doesn't want to kill me."
Bai Yuehu: "How do you know?"
Lu Qingjiu smiled and said, "I and Yin Xun are all five scumbags. Do I have to wait until I leave? Besides, just extinguish the candle, why mess up the tablet? That person just wants me to see my mother's name. "
Baiyue Fox frowned: "This is just your guess, what if you guess wrong."
Lu Qingjiu blinked, "I guess wrong, don't you still have you?"
White Moon Fox: "..."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Okay, don't be angry, I'm just a little anxious." Seeing what Bai Yuehu wanted to say, he said casually, "Let's go home and talk."
Bai Yuehu nodded.
It was late at night, but it was not terrible. About the summer is approaching, there are dots of fireflies in the grass beside the road. Lu Qingjiu reached out and grabbed one, watching it crawling in the palm of his hand. The second half of his body exudes fragments. Light.
Bai Yuehu followed Lu Qingjiu, and when he saw his movements, he said, "You have nothing to ask me?"
Lu Qingjiu turned his head and glanced at him, then raised his hand and put the firefly on the bridge of the white moon fox's strong nose. The white moon fox was taken aback by Lu Qingjiu, and his eyes couldn't help looking at the firefly, "What..."
Lu Qingjiu said: "Don't let it go, this is a punishment for you."
White Moon Fox: "..."
Lu Qingjiu turned around: "You have known me long ago, right?"
Bai Yuehu mumbled vaguely: "I saw you when you were a kid."
Lu Qingjiu thought for a while, and asked an irrelevant question: "Why do you think I like foxes?" Regarding the fact that Baiyue Fox has to cover his waistcoat, Lu Qingjiu really couldn't understand it, but he was still reminding him. Next, he had an incredible idea. He may have met Baiyue Fox when he was a child, and at that time deeply hurt Baiyue Fox's glass heart, causing Baiyue Fox to refuse to take off his fox vest.
Bai Yuehu was silent. When Lu Qingjiu turned his head, he saw his sulking face, but the firefly on his nose that was so scared to move made him angry is not terrible at all, but extraordinarily cute. stand up.
"You caught Zhou when you were young." Baiyuehu said, "I became a dragon for you to catch."
Lu Qingjiu was pretending to be serious, but when he heard Bai Yuehu's aggrieved tone, he couldn't help smiling.
Baiyue Fox said: "There was also a little fox who was caught together. As a result, you insisted on catching the vixen. When I touched you, you would cry."
Lu Qingjiu: "...this...children are not sensible, right?" He was actually a little bit empty.
Bai Yuehu continued: "Later when you were three years old, I secretly came to see you, and wanted to give you a dragon doll."
Lu Qingjiu: "..."
Bai Yuehu looks like an abandoned girl, telling how scumbag her husband is: "You just throw it away."
Lu Qingjiu whispered: "Maybe because, I don't like puppets?"
Baiyue Fox said coldly: "You sleep with a fox doll in your arms every night."
Lu Qingjiu coughed awkwardly.
White Moon Fox: "Hugged for several years!"
Lu Qingjiu pretended not to hear.
The puppet was bought by his parents from the city. It looks very cute and has a fluffy feel. It is a toy that Lu Qingjiu loved for a long time when he was a child. But then he lost it somehow, and Lu Qingjiu cried for it.
"I asked your grandma, why don't you like me." Baiyue Fox said of his grievances, "Your grandma said that you might not like bare reptiles, you like fluffy."
Lu Qingjiu defended: "Actually, I am not that superficial..."
Bai Yuehu ruthlessly exposed Lu Qingjiu: "Is my tail easy to touch?"
Lu Qingjiu: "..."
Baiyue Fox said: "No matter, I am a vixen anyway, whoever said I am not a vixen, I ate someone."
Lu Qingjiu was stunned right away. At first, he was just as confident as a who had touched the hot water. He wanted to shrink his whole body into the tortoise shell to avoid being questioned by the white moon fox.
Lu Qingjiu said: "Okay, okay." He stopped again, took the firefly from the white moon fox's nose, and placed it on his nose, "I'm sorry, I apologize."
White Moon Fox: "Humph."
"But you shouldn't hide so many things from me." Lu Qingjiu said, "Is my grandma died of illness?"
Bai Yuehu said slowly: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu said, "And my mother...my mother." He thought of the tablet where his mother was suppressed, and became a little confused, "My mother is contaminated?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Yes."
Lu Qingjiu: "But didn't she leave Shuifu Village? Why is she still polluted?"
Bai Yuehu sighed: "That was an accident." With his slow narration, Lu Qingjiu roughly understood what happened that year.
In the summer of that year, there was an accident in Shuifu Village. The junction of the two worlds was destroyed by a gap on the side of the candle dragon, and the breath of the other world flowed out. Lu Qingjiu's parents happened to return to Shuifu Village. Unfortunately, his mother was polluted, and there was no news after that. Although I don't know what happened at that time, Baiyue Fox guessed that it might be because of the half of the dragon blood in Fangyu's body that Fangyu was contaminated with the breath of the outside world, and after being contaminated, he encountered boil. After that, Lu Qingjiu knew everything about it. Naorun admitted that he had eaten Fangyu and Fangyu's husband, and suffered a cruel punishment unique to the dragon clan.
Lu Qingjiu said after hearing Bai Yuehu's narration, he thought for a moment: "So, you told me before that my mother didn't eat my grandfather. Did you lie to me?"
Bai Yuehu shook his head: "No, I just analyzed from the nature of the dragon clan. This is counterintuitive. Moreover, no one saw him eat your mother at that time. All the testimony was from his family."
Lu Qingjiu said: "But why did he tell such a lie?" He couldn't imagine how grieving grandma would feel after knowing that her daughter was eaten by her husband.
Lu Qingjiu continued: "And he also admitted in front of me, admitting that he ate my mother." He looked up at the white moon fox, his expression was a little fragile," he said himself."
Bai Yuehu didn't speak, and reached out and grabbed Lu Qingjiu's hand. The temperature of his palm spread to Lu Qingjiu's hand through his skin, calming Lu Qingjiu's heart.
Bai Yuehu: "He must have his own difficulties."
Lu Qingjiu stopped talking, just nodded gently.
"But even if he has difficulties, it's not a good thing to lead you up the mountain in the middle of the night." After talking about his parents, Bai Yuehu became angry, "What if something happens to you!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Isn't it all right? By the way, how is Yin Xun's incense candle?"
"It's okay." Baiyuehu said, "The incense candle is not so easy to go out."
The firefly on the tip of Lu Qing's nose left the white moon fox, and finally eased, waving his wings and flying towards other places, Lu Qingjiu did not reach out to stop it either.
"I'm sleepy, go back to sleep, I'll talk about other things tomorrow." Lu Qingjiu muttered, "And today I forgot to pick the loquat, so I have to make loquat cream..."
Bai Yuehu said: "Tomorrow I will pick it for you."
Lu Qingjiu gave a hum, and did not decline.
The two of them just held hands and arrived home. When Bai Yuehu let go of Lu Qingjiu's hand, he was still a little bit upset. His appearance reminded Lu Qingjiu of what Zhuo Ran said--do you have anything special to him? Do you want to own him? Will you be jealous?
Lu Qingjiu imagined the scene of Bai Yuehu holding hands with others. Although he was a little surprised, he still had to admit that he would really be jealous.
Bai Yuehu didn't know what Lu Qingjiu was doing while staring at him. He thought there was something on his face, so he reached out and touched his face in confusion: "What, what are you looking at me?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "Hey, have you ever been in a relationship before?"
Bai Yuehu was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong: "What?"
"I said you have ever been in love?" Lu Qingjiu said, "Are you a grown-up dragon? How old are you?"
Bai Yuehu: "I..." He wanted to say that he hadn't talked about it, but he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he hadn't even had a lover for so many years. After being single for hundreds of years, he would change his father or child. He was several hundred years old, so he said: "That's why I don't want to talk about it!"
Lu Qingjiu said, "That's not it?"
White Moon Fox: "..."
Lu Qingjiu: "Huh?"
Bai Yuehu mumbled dullly. If he had fox ears, those ears would have drooped sadly.
Lu Qingjiu: "Just... didn't you consider whom to fall in love with?" He asked tentatively.
Bai Yuehu: "With whom?" He seemed to vaguely sense the important information hidden in Lu Qingjiu's question, but he had no idea about love, but he understood it wrong, and immediately expressed his attitude seriously," Do you want to fall in love? With whom? There are no girls of the right age in this village. You have the blood of the dragon clan, and your life span is different from that of ordinary people. You can't just delay others."
Lu Qingjiu: "..." He didn't think of this, but Bai Yuehu's mention made him solve a worrying problem.
Bai Yuehu looked at the silent Lu Qingjiu but was a little unhappy. When he thought that Lu Qingjiu might be with others, he felt unpleasant that his own things were coveted by others, and urged: "You speak."
Lu Qingjiu laughed: "Yes, I want to fall in love."
Baiyuehu stared at Lu Sake with a serious look, and when Lu Sake continued to speak, he had even decided in his heart that no matter what name Lu Sake said, he would express strong opposition.
Lu Qingjiu said: "I just don't know if that person is willing."
Bai Yuehu: "Dare she willing?" Lu Qingjiu looked at his grown-up children. Although Lu Qingjiu left Shuifu Village for a while, the Dragon Clan was known for protecting shortcomings, even if he didn't want Lu Qingjiu to fall in love. But that also has to be Lu Sake's unwillingness, it is impossible to allow other people to look down on Lu Sake.
Lu Qingjiu looked at the angry look of Baiyue Fox, but he was smiling in his heart. He even gave his fake vixen a trick without hesitation: "What if he really doesn't want to?"
The white moon fox grinned, showing neat white teeth: "I ate her."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Really?"
Bai Yuehu said: "Of course it is true."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay, you have to talk and count."
Bai Yuehu didn't speak any more, but stood beside him quietly waiting for Lu Qingjiu's answer. Although there was no discoloration on his face, the countless emotions in his heart were already overwhelming, and he wished to rush out now and tell Lu Qingjiu that People pulled out to eat.
Lu Qingjiu said, "That person's name is Baiyuehu."
Bai Yuehu said: "Bai Yuehu? What stupid name—wait?" He opened his eyes in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief, "What did you say?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "I said, I want to fall in love with Bai Yuehu."
White Moon Fox: "..."
"Why, aren't you happy?" Lu Qingjiu was also an adult. He hadn't thought about it carefully before. After his grandfather's reminder, he almost immediately understood what he wanted. Life is short, and he is not a person who likes to hesitate. Now that he understands that he likes white moon foxes, he naturally wants to be with this cute fake fox.
Bai Yuehu didn't hesitate anymore, and nodded heavily the next moment.
