Chapter 1: Shadow Pendant (25)

Ah...do you think...this world...will change...

"Ning Qing...you said...where will they...fly to?"

He was wearing a black floral dress, his petite body was carried by the wind, blowing up the cuffs of Liuyun and his long lapel with white edges. There were peach blossoms in the woods, accompanied by the stream, which stretched far and wide.

He looked for the riverside and leisurely rocked the boat. On this small boat they built themselves, there was only a too simple raft. On the "Ask for the Road and Marriage", it looked like a shooting star in the sea of ​​flowers.

The gentle sound of water, the quiet sound of wind, and the geese in the sky, croaking and singing.

"South, it's winter, they are going south..."

Ning Qing stepped on a peach blossom branch, holding a piece of peach blossom in her hand. She gritted her teeth and used the peach blossom to beat the water.

And the water splashed away bit by bit, and after more than ten times in a row, the peach blossom tilted sideways and submerged into the water.

"Ah...can't you stay here?"

Ning Ji sat on the bow of the boat, his feet submerged quietly into the water. The fish followed their boat, blowing light bubbles. They were crowded together, looking too plump. Their pink scales were intertwined with the shimmering light, and they were woven together.

The peach blossoms and golden scales on his profile were like light, and the mountains looked empty.

"Idiot, although Bailing Mountain is warm, this is not their home after all." Ning Qing jumped lightly, like a well-trained assassin jumping onto the branches of another peach tree, looking left and right.

, and beat another peach blossom into the water.

One blow, two blows, three blows, the peach blossom's "sharp" "knife" cut the water surface, and this precise "water float" suddenly jumped in front of Ning Ji's bow, frightening the following carp away, and straightened up

It was ejected towards the groove by the river and inserted into the rocks.

Afterwards, he officially returned to the bow of the boat, like a "dark man" who had completed his action, leaning on the ground with one hand, looking directly at the winding and endless peach blossom forest.

Those geese are incompatible with the colorful scenery here, gray and rough, displaying their wings.

"They come from the south and live in the swamps of the Elf Kingdom. They only came to the north to escape the cold winter. They are just passing through here, how can they stay."

This sentence made Ning Ji look at him with wide eyes.

"Why can't we stay?"

Then he looked at Ning Qing doubtfully and repeated it again.

"I mean...since they run in both directions because of the cold, why not choose a place that is warm all year round to stay? Right?"

Ning Ji sat, his eyes raised as Ning Qing stood, his smooth and less angular face with long temples fluttering, and Peach Blossom was reluctant to stay away, standing close to him, quietly speaking from his face.

get away.

"Right? Right? Ning Ji, why? Why is this?"

He asked one after another, making Ning Qing roll his eyes in disgust as if looking at a fool. He closed his eyes, put his hands on his waist, and answered his stupid brother calmly.

"Because you are not a wild goose. You don't understand why the wild geese return to the Elf Kingdom. You don't understand that they don't just return to their nests because of the warmth... You don't understand..."

"But...you are not a wild goose either...Have you really seen them return to the Elf Kingdom? So far away!"

Wild geese flew over their heads in rows, and the mountain forests full of peach blossoms were dyed with gray.

"I don't want to discuss such idiotic issues with you."

"Hmm...but I really can't figure it out...it's clear that Bailing Mountain is warmer than the Elf Kingdom all year round, why do creatures like wild geese still appear...flying back and forth between the two areas...

."

Ning Ji didn't understand at all, and looked at his impatient brother with a smirk on his face. He swung his feet in the water, and the fish came back, slowly following him and the boat.

"Obviously, ha, wouldn't it be nice to live in Bailing Mountain all the time~ Bailing Mountain, but... it's a residence where thousands of spiritual beasts live... How nice..."

"You're not a wild goose, you won't understand..."

Ning Qing opened her eyes, glanced to the side, hummed, and then stopped talking.

"Ning Qing, are you a wild goose? Do you understand wild geese?"

"I said, I won't discuss such idiotic issues with you."

"Hahahaha, you can't beat me... Ning Ji... you are too rigid..."

Ning Ji was lying on his side, swinging a bamboo fishing rod at the bow of the boat. A drop of silver hook was dotted on the long silver thread. The fishing line without bait was quickly thrown into the side of the boat, and the fish were disturbed again.

After separation and gathering again.

"snort..."

Ning Qing sat down, approached Ning Ji, folded his hands and closed his eyes to rest. He would not answer his brother's stupid and idiotic questions again.

They are the pride of Bailing Mountain and the chosen ones of the empire, but they skipped class while listening to an old gentleman's lecture.

Ning Ji wanted to fish leisurely, and Ning Qing was just here to accompany him.

"Aha~ I still can't understand..."

Ning Ji was probably talking about the wild geese.

He leaned back and sat up.

"Why...my mung bean cake was eaten by mice..."

It turned out that he was not talking about wild geese.

"How would I know..."

Ning Qing rolled her eyes, opened her eyes slightly, and then closed them again.

"There are rats in Bailing Mountain...not just once or twice..."

"After all, mice are also spiritual beasts... There are not many things in Bailing Mountain, but there are many spiritual beasts... If there are many spiritual beasts, there must be rats... Rats are not beneficial animals... It's really...

"

"You have answered yourself."

"What?"

"nothing..."

Ning Qing shook his head, with flowers and water flowing around him. He was dressed in exquisite black long clothes. He was slightly thin, and his fingers were so slender that he could see the white bones.

They were silent for a while, and then the annoying brother complained again.

"Ah...why...can't I catch the fish I like?"

"..." Ning Qing listened to the question several times this month. This time, he obediently stopped answering.

"Ning Qing! Ning Qing! Ning Qing!"

His brother took the trouble to call him.

"Someone shouted for help, did you hear it?"

Maybe he could really hear the weak cry for help. Ning Qing listened carefully to hear it.

It was a cry for help.

Help...help...help me...

They stepped on the bow plank of the boat and ran toward the cry for help.

"There should be no smell of monsters around..."

Ning Ji frowned, stepped on the peach blossoms, raised his sword and ran forward, unable to catch up with the dust.

"It's a girl! Probably...it was a man-made disaster..."

Ning Qing placed her feet on the peach branches, her eyes were like torches, her green sword was swaying, and the flowers were falling with their shadows.

Between the mountains and forests, as soon as they crossed the Marriage Bridge, they saw the girl calling for help.

There was another girl whose origin even they couldn't tell, squatting next to the girl.

The girl's face was covered by a bamboo hat and a veil, and she was dressed in an exotic white silk dress. It was hard to tell where she was from, but the girl who needed help was lying on her back, bleeding profusely and very weak.

When the girl from a foreign land saw the two of them coming, she turned sideways and looked back. As soon as the veil of the bamboo hat turned, the blue wind passed by.

Along with this wind, they stared at each other in surprise...
Chapter completed!
