Mount Jadeon, Bamboo Peak.
The clouds drifted between the mountains, like a gentle white ribbon, gently changing. The slightly moist air in the morning, and the fresh and cool wind, passed through the green bamboo forest, brushed past the Bamboo Peak.
With the Observed Silence Hall as the center of the building, it stood quietly in the morning light, everything seemed so tranquil … …
Only a burst of barking sound, mixed with "zhi zhi" sound, broke the silence here. Big Yella with bright fur sprinted from afar, Ashh riding on its back, using its hand to hold onto the fur on Big Yella's neck to support its body, at the same time, the other hand waved in the air, looking very excited.
Ten years ago, after Shaw Danon went to Peak of Widows, he never came back. At the beginning, the two animals became depressed, especially Ashh, contrary to its usual energetic nature, it was depressed for a long time. As for Big Yella, it was also not good, it was depressed all day, not knowing if it was because it liked Shaw Danon's cooking too much, during that time, every time Amandla, who was cooking for Shaw Danon, took out food to feed them, Big Yella and Ashh would roar at it, after eating, they would roll their eyes, looking very dissatisfied. Poor Amandla was also depressed for a long time.
Just that time was like water, leisurely passing by, the memories of the past also seemed to gradually fade, not knowing when it started, Xiao Hui and Da Huang once again started to play on Big Bamboo Valley, playing endlessly, just that even so, when they were deep in the night, they would always return to Zhang Xiaofan's room, as if anticipating something.
Although, for so many years, this room was always empty.
"Si!"
Da Huang suddenly stopped in its tracks, the huge inertia almost made Xiao Hui fall off its back, luckily it held on tightly enough and managed to stabilize its body. Big Yella barked loudly, suddenly turned its head, opened its mouth and stuck out its long tongue, chasing its own tail, its body kept spinning at the same place.
Xiao Hui sat steadily on its back, grinned and laughed loudly, looking very excited and happy. Da Huang had played this boring game countless times but to them, it was the most fun thing.
The faint morning light shone on their bodies, Big Bamboo Valley reverberated with the sounds of the two animals, the people were still asleep, this wonderful time, seemed to be left only for them.
In the distance, in the verdant bamboo forest at the back of the mountain, the rustling sound of the bamboo leaves could be heard faintly. Even the wind blowing from that direction seemed to carry the fragrance of the bamboo leaves and the scent of the bamboo forest.
Suddenly!
Da Huang stopped chasing its own tail, Xiao Hui on its back also raised its head almost at the same time, opened its mouth and looked towards that stretch of bamboo forest.
Green mountains, green bamboos, wind blowing, like the sea …
Rustle, rustle, rustle …
[Zhi zhi zhi zhi!] Xiao Hui suddenly shrieked, Da Huang's reaction was also strange, just that its voice was much softer, barked a few times but after a moment, the two animals seemed to know something, Xiao Hui grabbed tightly onto Da Huang, Da Huang immediately spread its four legs and swiftly ran towards that stretch of black bamboo forest at the back of the mountain.
On the familiar small path at the back of the mountain, maybe because no one had come here to do their homework for a long time, the vegetation was so lush that even the original path was becoming blurred but Da Huang seemed to have an innate spiritual sense, shuttled through the forest, ran faster and faster, very soon it reached that stretch of bamboo forest.
In the verdant bamboo forest, serene and with a trace of mystery, Da Huang stopped outside the bamboo forest, quietly called out a few times, Xiao Hui jumped down from its back, crouched beside, looked at it and then peered into the depths of the bamboo forest, at times using its hands to scratch its head, seemed to be hesitating.
But after a while, Xiao Hui finally made up its mind, it called out to Da Huang twice and led the way into the bamboo forest, to say walk was actually not quite right but Xiao Hui strangely did not climb up the bamboos, instead using its forelimbs to support on the ground, with a hopping posture, slowly walked in, looking at it, it was careful but also seemed to be full of anticipation.
Da Huang called out twice, also strided forward and followed behind it, into this bamboo forest.
One monkey and one dog, slowly shuttled through the serene bamboo forest, very soon their figures disappeared.
The morning light was blocked by the dense bamboo leaves but through the gaps, there were still rays of light, turned into finger-sized light pillars, spilled down from the top of the bamboo forest, landed on the ground.
Xiao Hui and Da Huang walked slowly in the bamboo forest, walked … unknowingly, they had reached a certain place deep in the bamboo forest, there was a small clearing, it looked familiar, in the vague memory, it seemed to be the place where Shaw Danon first came here, painstakingly chopping bamboo.
Xiao Hui stopped, crouched on the clearing, used its hands to scratch its head, looked around.
In the serene bamboo forest, it was silent.
But there seemed to be some kind of inexplicable aura, floating here.
Making the heartbeat slowly quicken …
"Pu!" A light footstep, stepped in the silence of the bamboo forest.
Xiao Hui and Da Huang turned at the same time, that figure, behind a thick bamboo, slowly appeared.
The bamboo forest suddenly quietened down again, but after a moment, suddenly cheers sounded, Xiao Hui jumped up, its body turned into a grey light, dashed over, jumped into the air, leapt into that person's embrace!
It tightly grabbed onto that person's clothes, laughed loudly, unrestrainedly releasing its joy, [Zhi zhi zhi zhi] laughed incessantly.
That person hugged over, the once ferocious aura was now nowhere to be seen, between his brows was a gentle smile that had not been seen for a long time, holding Xiao Hui in his arms. Ou Yangming suddenly felt something again after a brief moment, so he lowered his head to look and smiled. He bent down to stroke Big Yellow's head, which was rubbing against his body, and asked with a smile, "Big Yellow, are you alright?"
Da Huang naturally could not speak, only quietly whimpered, its tail kept wagging, using its head to gently rub against his palm.
At the corner of his eyes, at a place where no one could see, indistinctly reflected light, "Only all of you, still treat me like before!"
He softly sighed, took a deep breath, in this bamboo forest, the once familiar taste of longing.
"Hua hua!"
Suddenly, another flurry of footsteps was heard, it was Wild Dog Taoist scurrying out from behind, but looking at his old and tattered robe torn by the thorns, he knew he had gone the wrong way.
Wild Dog Taoist's face was full of misfortune, grumbled to the once Zhang Xiaofan, now Ghost Li, "Hey, brat, are you crazy, even if you want to die you don't have to do this, this is Qing Yun sect, if we are discovered, even if we have ten lives we will still be dead!"
Suddenly, Da Huang who was very docile to Ghost Li just now turned around, the hair on its neck stood up, bared its teeth, obviously it did not like Wild Dog at all. After a moment, Da Huang howled and actually pounced over.
Wild Dog was shocked but seeing this almost half a human tall enormous dog suddenly pouncing over, his heart first thumped, subconsciously reached out to hold his fang esper.
Unexpectedly Ghost Li indifferently said, "If you dare to use your esper to hurt this dog, I will chop off your hands and feet and then throw it down the mountain in front of Observed Silence Hall."
Wild Dog was stunned, angrily said, "What did you say …"
But before he could finish, Da Huang had already pounced over, in Wild Dog's absent-minded moment, he was pounced on by this enormous dog, immediately dog barks and curses were heard incessantly, human and dog tumbled, staggered, in a mess, Wild Dog Taoist and Da Huang rolled behind a distant thorns, the human figure and dog body could not be seen, only angry cries could be heard from time to time,
"Aiya, dead dog, you are still biting … hey, brat, you brat, still not telling this dog to let go, no, let go, ah!... Damn dog, that is a human leg, not a chicken leg! ... Damn dog, that is a human leg, not a chicken leg! Quickly let go, don't bite … ah ah ah … "
Ghost Li turned a deaf ear to Wild Dog's cries, turned his head to look at Xiao Hui in his arms, a smile between his brows, carefully assessed it, after not seeing it for ten years, Xiao Hui seemed to have grown a little, the feeling of carrying it in his arms, seemed to be heavier than before, even that mark between its eyes, seemed to have grown a lot bigger.
And Xiao Hui, after the initial joy and agitation, right now was still grinning, like in the past, climbed onto his shoulder, habitually stretched out its hand, to stroke his hair.
Ghost Li quietly stood and then slowly walked out, walked to the edge of the bamboo forest, gazed afar, the place in front of the mountain covered by clouds and mist, was once his warmest home.
He was in a daze, gazing deeply.
Not knowing how much time had passed, Da Huang triumphantly ran out from the depths of the bamboo forest, shaking its head, tail wagging non-stop, hopped to Ghost Li, [Woof woof woof] called out a few times.
Ghost Li smiled, stretched out his hand and patted its head.
After a while, Wild Dog Taoist staggered out from the black bamboo forest, the Taoist robe on his body more tattered, even his dog face had a few more scratches, as for the wound on his feet, it was even more indistinctly visible.
Right now seeing Da Huang crouching beside Ghost Li, he felt afraid and did not dare to walk over, scolded angrily from afar, "Dead dog, don't think that there is someone backing you up, sooner or later one day I will kill you!"
Da Huang abruptly turned its head, roared at Wild Dog Taoist, Wild Dog was scared out of his wits, immediately retreated a few steps but Da Huang looked like it was only scaring him, did not pursue and instead turned its head, Wild Dog was then relieved but no matter what he did not dare to scold again.
Looking down the mountain for a long time, the first ray of sunlight of the day, had already quietly descended, covering this stretch of green mountain with a layer of faint golden clothes.
Ghost Li closed his eyes, breathed deeply.
