long night walk

Chapter 1353 Observing the situation
In such a bustling night town, it seems like everything has become a foil.

This time, the dessert seller didn't even exchange a warm greeting with Balian and the others, and there were already two bowls of crystal clear cherry cheese on the table.

Balian placed the lantern and the jade face together. He picked up the silver spoon in his hand and gently took a spoonful of the snowy jade dessert. He took a small taste, then frowned slightly and pursed his lips. Looks slightly strange.

Seeing him like this, Yun Rong secretly became a little nervous, "What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?"

But the taste was average, and it was very different from the cherry cheese I had eaten in the capital of Qin. It was far different. Apart from sweetness, there was no other special taste.

Balian has very high requirements for sweets and hot pot. If he had bought a bowl of cherry cheese like this in the past, he would definitely not continue to uphold his traditional gentlemanly virtue of not wasting food.

But for some reason today, looking at Yun Rong's cautious eyes, it was clearly a trivial matter that was no big deal, but he felt a little bit distressed for no reason.

He didn't put down the silver spoon in his hand, but ate the ordinary bowl of sweets in small sips.

“It’s not bad at all, it’s very refreshing and sweet, I like it very much.”

After hearing what he said, Yun Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The dream she weaved was her own imagination. She had traveled to the south of the Yangtze River in the past years and knew the customs and customs of the south of the Yangtze River, so she could weave a beautiful dream of the south of the Yangtze River for him so vividly.

It's just a pity that she has never tasted the cherry cheese that Balian likes to eat, and she doesn't know what it tastes like.

He didn't know that the bowl of cherry cheese talisman tonight didn't suit his taste.

After Balian finished eating the cherry cheese, he put the empty bowl back neatly.

He looked around, and his eyes fell on the boss who was constantly busy entertaining guests. Suddenly he felt something and couldn't help laughing:

"It's really interesting for this boss to receive guests. He is very enthusiastic and talkative when receiving other guests, but he is too lazy to say a word nonsense when he receives other guests. He leaves after serving desserts. He doesn't even want to say any more pleasantries."

Yun Rong smiled lightly and said: "Jiangnan is very lively and this street is bustling. We are not the only two customers. The boss is getting older and it is normal for him to want to entertain more customers and earn some money."

On the surface, Yun Rongming behaved naturally and calmly to comfort Bailian, but in fact, he knew clearly in his heart. Although he was in a chaotic state with his heart burning out, he still noticed something strange.

She could have put more thought into it like the lady selling lanterns just now, but Yun Rong also had selfish motives in her heart.

She couldn't tell when this dream would collapse.

The young man in front of him also looked at him less than once.

She could come here and take him home, but she couldn't go home with him.

Yun Rong didn't want to have other chores and distractions that would delay the time the two of them spent alone together. She and Balian's eating habits had always been different. The only thing they had a tacit understanding of was that they both had quiet temperaments and didn't like too much hustle and bustle. crowd.

The bustling capital city is just a spectator and a passer-by.

The two of them spent their past years wandering among mountains, forests, springs and rocks, with their dusty hearts gradually extinguished and far away. Although they had the heart to appreciate the mountains, rivers and the hustle and bustle of the world, the gentleman did not play with things to lose his ambition, it was just to use the environment to adjust his mind.

Now, she only wants to fulfill the agreement she made back then, and does not want these mundane things to disturb her and her junior brother's dream anymore.

Bailian didn't know the complicated thoughts and thoughts in Yun Rong's heart.

He naturally believed deeply in what Yun Rong said.

Perhaps because he knew he was in a dream, Yun Rong had little interest in the food in the dream, but he took a few bites and put it down after he couldn't taste much.

Seeing that she was not very interested in food, Bailian suggested: "Senior sister, I heard that there is a famous place in the south of the Yangtze River called Jinlin Pond. There are thousands of big red koi carps in it. You can enjoy them under the moonlight at night, like lanterns. Fierce flames swim in the water, and the most famous one is the three-day peach blossom rain in Lanxi River, where the koi scales are like gold in the middle of the night."

Yunrong had never seen such a magnificent scene, and she didn't know how it would appear in a dream. She just looked at Bailian's burning, bright and longing eyes, and how could she bear to reject it.

Listening to the description in his words, I also had some imagination in my mind.

Watching the scenery with him in her dream was also what she wanted.

She was not afraid of Balian's demands, but she was afraid that he would have no desires and desires, and that he would lose his thoughts and things he wanted to do in this world.

Yun Rong looked at him and smiled slightly: "I have never seen the scenery of the Golden Scale Pond. It is a rare opportunity tonight. I also want to take a good look at it with my junior brother."

The two got up and walked. In the dream, although their minds changed, they didn't need to walk too far or for a long time. The scenery and people around them were quickly moving away.

Under the eyes, the stream and pond are gurgling, and the peach blossoms are as colorful as falling rain. However, under the moonlight, the koi in the pond are not visible like blazing flames hidden in the quiet pond, entangled and dancing.

On the contrary, it was a young girl wearing a garnet-like fire, standing on the bank of the lake, with a graceful appearance. She lowered her eyes and looked at the Golden Scale Pond, sighing with resentment.

A glimmer of light could be seen in Yun Rong's eyes.

Although that woman was a character in a lantern night party created and arranged by her in this dream, she did not arrange her here.

If Balian had the intention to take a closer look, among the people watching flowers and fish at the Golden Scale Pond, unless they came up to chat alone, the expressions on their faces would be rigid and single, and they would not have particularly rich emotions.

The young girl looking at the lake with a resentful look and feeling sorry for herself was definitely not Yun Rong's deliberate arrangement.

On the contrary, it is like injecting spiritual control into people.

Yun Rong's mind was spinning, and she realized that it was probably A'luo, the traitor who was forced back by her sword, who was secretly causing trouble.

This evildoer still refuses to give up!
Yun Rong felt helpless and angry.

She didn't have much time left, and A'luo still wanted to increase her sense of presence.

Fortunately, that skin is not the original appearance of A'rao. Otherwise, no matter how good-tempered Yun Rong is, he may not be able to hold back now.Different from the girl who was created by thoughts and dreams, she seemed to have her own distinctive and unique color in a pale black and white ink painting.

Even though Balian was someone who wouldn't look at other girls randomly on the street, his eyes couldn't help but quickly fall on her.

Yun Rong frowned deeply and wanted to change the space scene, but he hadn't seen the koi at the moment. Changing the dream scene without authorization would inevitably make Bai Lian notice something strange.

He is the subject of the dream. Once he realizes that he is in a dream and realizes that something is wrong, everything she has weaved will collapse and stop there.

Thinking of this, Yun Rong had no choice but to endure.

Fortunately, Balian looked over, and after just one glance, he stopped looking. He took Yun Rong's hand and came to the famous Golden Scale Pond.

He said with regret: "I must have missed the best time to watch fish in the past few years, but there are only a few fish swimming in it, which is different from what I imagined."

Yunrou moved her lips lightly, and was about to speak, but was suddenly interrupted by the young girl, saying: "This man doesn't know something. Although he came here yearning to see the scenery, he took a special look to see it with all his heart. It's a pity, but maybe when you really get it, you will suddenly find that the old things that you are obsessed with are nothing more than this."

The girl's eyes moved, and she glanced at Yun Rong meaningfully. She looked at people and animals harmlessly in a soft voice: "Things are like this, scenery is like this, and people are also like this sometimes. The scenery is boring, the scenery is boring. People, even if they insist on traveling all over the green mountains and enjoying the endless scenery, I’m afraid it will be too boring.”

Balian heard something in the girl's words, but didn't know what she meant. He frowned and said, "I came to this city not to force myself. The girl and I just met by chance, so don't make any assumptions or over-interpretations." .”

The girl smiled warmly, her eyes moved as if she was looking up at him lovingly, "Looking from afar, Mr. Lang is indeed a dragon and a phoenix, with a graceful temperament. The little girl does not dare to make wild guesses, but she also knows something." Regarding my daughter’s family worries, I just looked at the sister beside my husband. Although she was walking with my husband all the way, she seemed to be lacking in interest. I guess she was not very happy about this scene."

This was said with great skill.

The person who suggested coming to the Golden Scale Pond to watch fish was Bai Lian. Now, the original grand scene of thousands of fish swimming like flames on one side of the water is no longer there. Only a few fish are left swimming in it. It’s not ornamental either.

Balian felt a little embarrassed when the grand scene that he originally wanted to take Yun Rong to see with great interest turned into this.

Now that I heard what the girl said, in retrospect, after eating that bowl of cherry cheese along the way, the senior sister's interest was indeed not very high.

Bailian suddenly became nervous.

Yun Rong knew, however, that in the real world, when it came to scheming, A'luo and Bailian were equally matched. The junior brother could occasionally gain the upper hand due to his innate intelligence.

Now that I am in an unconscious dream, I am probably only being led by my nose.

Not to mention that they have been master and apprentice for many years and have a deep relationship. Aluo is the master who knows how to deal with her best.

He suddenly felt a crisis in his heart, "Junior brother, I don't..."

"This husband." The girl suggested with a smile: "I'm afraid I won't be able to see the thousands of fish swimming in the Golden Scale Pond. I am from the south of the Yangtze River. I am familiar with the local customs and customs. I know that besides gold, In addition to the Linchi Pond, which is a great sight, there is also the Guanqing Bridge, which is also loved by the locals."

"The Guanqing Bridge is located near the lake near Zhaoshui. There is a legend that if lovers walk on the same bridge together, during the full moon, if their reflections in the lake under the bridge can clearly reflect their faces, it proves that they are truly destined for each other. , what about the destiny that entangles your destiny forever?"

"If the husband is interested, the little girl is willing to lead the way for the two of them."

Yun Rong thought with her hair, she knew what A'luo had planned. If she really went with him, wouldn't it be her who made the final decision on the appearance of the couple reflected in the water during the full moon?

And that Guanqing Bridge... How could Yun Rong remember that in the early days of the Tianxi Sword Sect, A'rao always thought about the full moon night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on the grounds of her birthday, and asked her junior brother to take her to Jiangnan to view the bridge? Love bridge.

It turns out that all my thoughts are here waiting for him.

Hearing the words "Guanqing Bridge", Bailian's frown deepened, and he felt strange for a moment.

Vaguely, he also remembered that someone had made a promise with him, and if he was free, he would take her to this bridge to enjoy the moon.

But unfortunately, that person was not Yun Rong, but someone else.

The girl had a clear view of Balian's reaction, and there was a hint of secret joy in her heart.

Even though she was a human being in two lives and a human being in one life, Master still remembered the agreement he made with her.

Being able to react like this in a chaotic and confusing dream was the greatest response for her.

She pretended to be innocent and puzzled, and said with a bright smile: "Looking at Mr. Lang's expression, it seems that he has heard of Guanqing Bridge, but he has made such an agreement with his sweetheart before..."

The girl glanced at Yun Rong, who had a pale face, and said with a proud smile: "If this is the case, this bridge will be even more worth visiting."

Yun Rong's eyes were dim and she was in a daze, when the paper lantern in her hand suddenly made a soft clanging sound.

She raised her eyes and met Bailian's eyes as bright as sparks, with a faint smile, and heard him whisper softly: "It's not like I made such an agreement with my sweetheart, but the girl said it Yes, it seems that I made a vague agreement with someone in the past, and promised to go to the Guanqing Bridge with her."

Yun Rong couldn't help but hold her breath when she heard him admit it. She had always boasted that her heart was as big as the universe, and she could pretend to be the whole world, but now for some reason she felt an unfamiliar soreness rushing up to the bridge of her nose. She was originally filled with pain in her heart. The joy turned into bitterness and suddenly enveloped my gloomy heart.

The corners of the girl's lips curled up, her arc becoming more and more proud, "How about that gentleman..."

"But now that I think about it, it really shouldn't be." Balian interrupted the girl's next words. He held up the thin white cotton rope with his slender fingers, pulled the thin thread and gently bumped it with the lantern. The lantern in Yun Rong's hand.

The candlelight flickered, and the long eyelashes cast swaying shadows on his face. Balian said softly: "I didn't know that you need to invite your sweetheart to go to the Guanqing Bridge."

As the girl's expression gradually stiffened, Balian continued to say leisurely: "I am a man with a family, and I just want to play the piano and harp with one person, and guard the mountain with the bright moonlight. Although I didn't know the meaning of the Guanqing Bridge at the time, I know it now. , but also because of me, the husband."

The girl's mouth was stiff and she said, "But why don't you, Mr. Lang, know that the person you made this agreement with was not your romantic partner, but your beloved? Now there is a lot of clearing up the relationship between the words, that person How sad the girl would be if she heard it."

Balian looked indescribably casual and relaxed at this moment, without any guilt, and said matter-of-factly: "If you hear it, you will hear it. Even the person who made such an agreement with me is of no importance in my life." He is just a passer-by, not as important as my wife.

Although I don’t know how to make such a ridiculous agreement, there is really no need to go to Guanqing Bridge in this life, so as not to misunderstand my wife and make her think that I still miss those insignificant people. The most important thing between husband and wife is Opportunity creates unnecessary resentment. "
