Leaping Dragon Flying to the Sky

"Brother, wait for me, I will come back after delivering the medicine."

The road in the back mountain is not usually traveled by people, and it is the season when everything grows in spring. Weeds grow wildly, and the path paved with gravel is almost submerged and invisible.

Xiaodong was afraid that he wouldn't be able to catch up with the time, if the senior sister didn't find out about the medicine and had already entered the cave, it would be a big mistake.The more urgent, the more difficult it is. Many grass blades have jagged edges, and the surface of the blades is rough like sandpaper. When people walk by, the corners of the clothes are caught by the dead branches of the grass blades.There was still wet dew on the branches and leaves, which wet his boots and robes.

Seeing that he was about to climb up to the top of the slope, the corner of his clothes was hooked by a horizontal thorn. He panicked, and there was a sound of stabbing, and the hard thorn with the hook broke the corner of his clothes.

Xiaodong quickly bent down to pull out the thorn, and was about to get up when he heard someone talking in front of him.

It was Senior Sister Linglong's voice, and she was saying, "I told you not to come here, why are you making this extra trip?"

Senior sister saw him?Xiaodong was about to respond when another person said, "I don't feel at ease if I don't come to see it. This retreat is very important to you, you...be careful of everything, don't rush into it blindly..."

Xiaodong had heard this voice before, but he was not very familiar with it.

The speaker was an outer disciple, surnamed Zhai, if I remember correctly, his name was Zhai Wenhui.Because this surname is a bit of a mouthful, and the accent on the Huiliu Mountain side is weird, they always pronounce the word Zhai as a thief, so many people laugh and call him brother thief, and Xiaodong remembers it clearly because of this.

Xiaodong looked around, and through the bushes and long grass, he could vaguely see Senior Sister Linglong and Senior Brother Zhai standing under a cypress tree at the intersection, talking.

Since there is friendship, why didn't you come and go with them just now?

Was it missed, or was it intentional?

Xiaodong saw Senior Brother Zhai take something out of his sleeve and hand it over: "I specially prepared this, and the herbs and spices inside can calm the mind and refresh the mind. Keep it away, maybe it will be useful."

"Okay, I know." Senior Sister Linglong took it, responded, and urged him: "You go back quickly, I have to go too."

Senior Brother Zhai responded, but stood there without moving.Senior Sister Linglong said she wanted to leave, but didn't move.

The two stood there without speaking or moving, just looking at each other like this, as if they couldn't get enough of it.

"Go." Senior Sister urged again.

Brother Cui then turned around and left. He didn't take Xiaodong's road, but another road to the west slope, which was farther than Xiaodong's road.

It seemed that he deliberately didn't want people to meet him.

He walked a few steps, then turned back to look, and waved his hand at the senior sister: "Go quickly."

The senior sister responded, "Understood." But her feet still didn't move, she stood there watching Senior Brother Zhai walk away.

Xiaodong is no longer a child of three or five years old. Seeing the two of them like this, he more or less understands half of it.

He didn't pay much attention to Senior Brother Zhai at ordinary times, and he didn't say a few words. He only remembered that this man seemed to have a good temper, always had a smile on his face, and spoke kindly and generously. Tall, it seems that some people joked with him, saying that even if he failed to practice Taoism, he would not be hungry when he went down the mountain to eat with his appearance.

But I never noticed him and my senior sister before...

It's not that Xiaodong has any prejudice against foreign disciples, let alone look down on them.To be honest, in terms of real skills, there are many outer disciples who are better than him. Xiaodong was accepted by his master as a direct disciple after he came because of his uncle's favor. It's not suitable for an outer disciple to be with a senior sister.

As for Senior Sister and Senior Brother Zhai, they avoid people, which is not strange, maybe it is because of embarrassment.

Senior Brother Zhai had gone far away, Linglong turned her head to look at Xiaodong, and said loudly, "Come here, you're hiding like a little mouse."

It turned out that the senior sister had already noticed that he was coming.

Xiaodong was a little embarrassed, so he quickly walked over.

"Senior Sister, I forgot to return the Bigu Pill to you just now, and I almost missed your business."

Linglong took the medicine bottle, stretched out her hand and grabbed Xiaodong's face, pinching his little face out of shape: "Did you see it just now?"

Xiaodong sighed, "No, I didn't see much."

"If you see it, you'll see it. We have nothing to shame." Linglong didn't let go of her hand, but said sternly: "Don't tell anyone else, do you hear me? You can't tell the elder brother either."

Knowing that Xiaodong is like a little tail following the senior brother every day, she is convinced of the senior brother, so Linglong specially added this sentence.

Xiaodong could only nod quickly, but he didn't dare to nod too hard, his face was still pulled.

Only then did Linglong let go of her hand, and rubbed his face for him. It wasn't that she was particularly careful, but that the little junior brother's face was too tender. After being pinched by her like this, the two red marks were particularly conspicuous.If he went back later and let the elder brother see him and ask, Bao Buqi couldn't hide the words in his belly, and he would tell her all the words like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.

What Linglong said just now was the truth, she felt that there was nothing shameful about herself and Senior Brother Zhai.There is no rule in Huiliu Mountain that disciples of the same sect are not allowed to fall in love. The master is an enlightened person. Even if he knows about this, he will not object. He will be accepted as a personal disciple.

It is precisely because of this that the two did not make the matter public.One is...Linglong is thin-skinned after all, and the relationship between the two just happened not to be long.Secondly, Senior Brother Zhai is promising and ambitious. Even without Linglong's help, he will become a direct disciple sooner or later. Why bother to make a fuss now and let others say that he is in Linglong's favor? Is it because of nepotism?

But there is no need to explain the reason to the younger brother, this is not the time to talk.Besides, how old is the little junior brother, and he definitely doesn't understand the matters between men and women.

Xiaodong quickened his pace and walked back, not far away, he saw senior brother still waiting for him by the side of the road, senior brother Jiang was not there, it seemed that he had gone back first.

"What's wrong with your face?"

Mo Chen saw that his face was blushing before he came to him.Xiaodong's skin is tender and white, so the pinched marks should not be too conspicuous.

"Oh," Xiaodong himself didn't know, he remembered it when his brother asked him, and stretched out his hand to touch it, the piece that was pinched was hot and still a little painful.

Before he could answer, Mo Chen already understood in his heart: "Linglong pinched you? Her hands are not serious, and her temper is too bad."

Eldest brother didn't ask in detail, Xiaodong was really relieved.

Asking him to hide something from the senior brother made him feel uneasy, but if the senior senior brother didn't ask carefully, he wouldn't talk too much.
