The Spirit World

Chapter 385 Library

"Are they... disciples of Bailing Mountain? They are so young..." Lin'er looked at the mountains and rivers here, and with interest, she grabbed a small bunch of her hair and shook it back and forth.

The mountains are inlaid with pavilions, the water and pavilions are intertwined layer by layer, separated up and down, with stars dotted in the sky, the water and the sky are the same color, all shining with silver light and sparkling with stars. It looks like the water of the sky is falling from the Milky Way. If a person with leisure and elegance sees this scene, he will surely express his full talent and speak endlessly.

Between the mountains and forests, between the water and the sky, there are intertwined lines, as if the four seas and eight wildernesses are all one and the same, formed naturally. It is more like the brilliant brushstrokes in a painting, and every dot of clear ink is half of the wonders of the spiritual world.

Beautiful, it is really beautiful. The sound of the water flowing into my ears seems to wash away the worries of ordinary people. The mountain seems to be stacked layer by layer, with jade railings of stairs stretching up and down. The two blue dragons entwined in Bailing Mountain seem to be unruly in the wind and clouds, roaring at the mountain gate, majestic and imposing.

Especially along the way, birds, beasts, insects and fish also made noises, perhaps because they saw strangers. The noisy sounds slowly died down, and there were some insects chirping, and then the sound of tranquility slowly came, which was a rare and soothing feeling.

This is not a field, but there is indeed a sweet smell from the countryside. I don’t know where the flowers are blooming. Every day, I listen to people talking about and learning art in this faint, floating fragrance like clouds and silk. Isn’t this really the pride of the world’s famous mountains?

Lin'er looked at everything here like a shy girl. There were not many pedestrians, but it was good this way. After going up the steps at the foot of the mountain, there was no such loud echo from the empty valley. She was smiling happily, and was a little surprised at everything here, as if she had entered a flower garden. She didn't know where to look, and could only follow Chang Yufeng forward. If it weren't for Chang Yufeng, she could observe here freely and slowly. She remembered the day when she was brought to Pineapple Pineapple Mountain by her master. It was also like this. No, or whenever she encountered something new, she would be like this. It would be a pity if no one appreciated the beautiful mountains and rivers, wouldn't it?
Her eyes kept looking up slowly as she moved along, asking questions as she looked.

After all, the man next to him has always been known as a know-it-all.

It seems like he knows everything and can do everything, but because he doesn't explain it clearly, he seems to have only a vague understanding of everything, yet he still has his own opinions.

Thinking about it this way, it is rare.

"Yeah... being so young... that's great..." Chang Yufeng looked at the mountains and rivers along the way vaguely. He felt a little depressed, not as natural as usual.

"Hey! We are young now! Look!" Lin'er pointed happily to one side of a pond, where there was a super big white goose resting, even as big as half a human body.

When it rests, it hides its long neck under its snow-white wings. Although its whole body cannot be seen, you can tell at a glance that it is a goose, because its snow-white feathers are pure and white under the starlight, without any flaws.

"Goose!"

"Yes...that is a very powerful goose. Most of the disciples here are no match for him." Chang Yufeng nodded.

"What? This goose looks unusual. Could it be very powerful?" Lin'er watched the goose resting. After passing the pavilion and the pool, she continued to watch it. She turned back when she could no longer see it.

"Of course you can. This goose is amazing... Not to mention the huge amount of medicinal pills it eats, its absorption of the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in Bailing Mountain is something that ordinary people cannot compare to. Many disciples are extremely envious of this little guy..." Chang Yufeng also smiled, a rare smile of his. He had a calm face throughout the whole journey. It couldn't be said that the conversation was unhappy, but it was hard to connect them with happiness.

This in itself was very strange. Although Chang Yufeng told her that it was not clear that he was the young master of Bailing Mountain, so she should not mention it in front of others, but since it was her own mountain gate, she should be happy no matter what. It was just like a wanderer who had not returned home for a long time. He knew that there was such a legendary mountain gate in his home, and it was even famous in this area. She should be happy no matter what.

But Chang Yufeng didn't.

It's not surprising that strange men do strange things.

Maybe Ning Shuilan said something to him, which made him unhappy at all.

"It's so beautiful here. It's like a wonderful fairyland at night. You may not see such beautiful scenery in Pineapple Pineapple Mountain. I follow the master around there every day, but I don't see so many beautiful scenery."

Lin'er was infatuated, as if she was touching the beautiful scenery from the air. This place was spread out like a scroll. The people in the painting came here with emotions, and they were amazed and praised it.

"Well, this is the result of renovation by several generations... The beauty of it is also the result of several generations connecting together. It is by no means a style that can be demolished and rebuilt at will because someone likes it. It is more of a blessing from the ancestors for this mountain. Each generation of family heads will not make too many changes to the original renovation, just like the respect for the elders. The feelings in it are naturally strong. This beauty is more like a heritage of the unity of man and nature. You have me and I have you. It is complex but not complicated, and numerous but not chaotic. If you look down from the sky, the entire Bailing Mountain can just stand as a point in the center of the entire Dongyu. This wonderful imagination is also a heritage of wisdom." Chang Yufeng also felt a little proud, but he didn't show it much, and his tone didn't fluctuate much. It was just that the ending was quite ups and downs, which made Lin'er feel that he was reciting a strange poem.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think this kind of beauty is really a kind of enjoyment in the world." Lin'er sighed, and Chang Yufeng also nodded in praise.

Then, everyone moved forward.

There is some silence,
This is naturally good, but you can't always have something to say.

Of course, it can’t just be Lin’er who says this.

Along the way, it was Lin'er who asked the questions and Chang Yufeng who answered them.

All these doubts come from the joy of being here. Of course, only with this man by her side can she release the joy of seeing the beautiful scenery. If she had seen someone else, she probably wouldn't ask any questions, but would just keep praising, saying this is good, that is not bad either. It would also be difficult to say the word "beautiful".

Beauty is a two-way feeling. It can be a physical feeling or a spiritual feeling. If it is a beautiful woman with a beautiful woman, this scene is unique in the world and beautiful beyond words. If it is a lovelorn man, it is a blessing if you don't feel disgusted with this scene.

Chang Yufeng...seems not to be that interested in Lin'er's past seven years and experiences in those seven years.

That day, sitting by the small bridge and the flowing water, the two children talked about nothing more than some words they had just met. His gentleness seemed to be natural, and he was the same to everyone. There was nothing special about it.

Not to mention a situation like this.

He never asked about her situation, and she, who played the role of questioner, seemed to have never changed. No matter what, such a man was always calm. She was surprisingly happy with this body, just like she would automatically repair her clothes every time she saw them, red like fire. If her face was not good-looking, she would definitely not be able to support such bright red clothes. She could not be called rich, but she was definitely unstoppable and gorgeous.

However, Chang Yufeng seemed to know what she had experienced in her dream. He always understood but never said it out loud. Only when she asked him foolishly did he tell her the story.

In short, I have no interest in this fellow traveler, friend, or old friend I met...

Don't ask this, don't ask that...

It's as if I'm so familiar with everything about her that asking her one more time might make me feel bored or even annoyed.

Well, at least I'm not bored yet, but boredom is inevitable, otherwise why wouldn't I ask anything?
What has she gained in these seven years...

These seven years...what has she been through.

Or maybe, during these seven years, what different feelings did I have in the spiritual world?

I should blame myself for being stupid. I don't know what to say.

Maybe it’s that feeling of being dispensable, weird and lost, and in this silence, making myself feel a little... awkward.

"Ahem..." Lin'er coughed and said with a smile: "We have been walking for so long... where should we go now?" "Let's go find Lang Yi Shu Weng... I hope it's not too late..." Chang Yufeng said a name. Lin'er didn't know what kind of Lang Yi Shu Weng this was. She tilted her head and said: "Lang... Lang Yi Shu Weng, what a strange name... is there any little story behind this?"

"That's just his last name...no little story."

"Then why are you called Chang Yufeng? I don't believe you just made up your name. There must be some story behind it! Or are you not very familiar with this Lang Yishuweng? You don't know him?" Lin'er deliberately made a fuss, pouting and looking at Chang Yufeng with a questioning look. She was a little shorter than Chang Yufeng, and looking over his shoulder at this moment, she saw that calm face without any expression.

This profile looks a little childish, not so mature, without that strong sense of maturity. It seems that he is only... seventeen years old... It is reasonable when you think about it, but when you look at the whole face, that cold expression, yet mature enough to give people the chills.

This strange man, with some strange adjectives, becomes less strange.

"Well...how should I put it...it's okay...I really don't know if there is any special story behind my name. It's very likely that my parents just found the inspiration in a maple forest, or they like a place with a maple forest, so they came up with my name..." Chang Yufeng's serious explanation made Lin'er find it inexplicably funny, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hahaha... then thinking about it this way, my Linzi is hard to explain... one is Wang, and the other is Lin. Could it be... that your parents were kings of some place, and then they came up with this name in the forest?"

Chang Yufeng's cold and handsome look made Lin'er feel much better. At least, this kind of man was really like the kind of man that people usually talk about. He was not like the taciturn and inarticulate man that others said would do some funny things. He was the kind of... serious and solemn man who would make you feel that he was very strange, and a very interesting man when you think about him inadvertently.

Perhaps, the fact that he is willing to answer her questions over and over again without getting tired of it shows that women shouldn't think so much.

Right.

Along the way, I have been feeling strange and kept guessing. Sometimes I think about his good points, sometimes I think about his bad points. Hahaha, maybe even though he is not thinking about my good points or my bad points, he will answer you seriously just by asking you, and then you will feel that he is seriously talking about your good points and your bad points, which can also make you inexplicably angry.

and many more……

I never thought like this before...

Could it be... that it's because I'm now truly seventeen years old that I have this kind of trouble?

Emotions are given a very important position.

Especially your own feelings and emotions.

There is also this possibility...

"Then there's no need to have such thoughts. Girls' names are usually as nice as they can be. They no longer sound tacky like jewels. They are all... gentle and elegant. After all, they are treasures in the palm of your hand. The word "Lin" may have some special meaning..." Chang Yufeng seemed to realize something. He was stunned for a second, then smiled and said: "It's a good name... Who cares about so much... right?"

"Yeah." Lin'er nodded.

Treasure in the palm of your hand.

Whose treasure is this?
The treasure of parents.

Lin'er, no parents.

If there really are parents, the sky is the father and the earth is the mother, and the rest are speechless.

Of course I was speechless. I was afraid of hurting Lin'er if I said anything more.

This time, it seemed as if there was silence again.

Chang Yufeng looked at Lin'er, but Lin'er didn't react. From this point of view, it was nothing... This matter itself was nothing. After so many years, it was not necessarily sad.

"It's possible... He just gave me this name on a whim." Lin'er touched her chin and thought: "Then who is this Lang Yi Shu Weng?"

"Well... he's not a big shot. He's just the manager of a book pavilion." Chang Yufeng looked at the road ahead and walked forward with Lin'er, turning into a narrower road.

"Is it really that simple?" Lin'er asked, pouting her little mouth like a child. However, it was not wrong that she was a child herself.

"It's really that simple." He nodded and walked through some small vines. The further he went inside, the brighter the lights became. The lights of Bailing Mountain came from a kind of transparent crystal that could absorb sunlight and glow at night. They were placed in some conspicuous places and polished into the appearance of decorations. Looking from a distance at Bailing Mountain, he could see the dim lights, night after night.
"I do not believe……"

"Really...it's really that simple."

Chang Yufeng lowered his head and looked towards the end of the path.

The huge stone tablet with the three characters "Book Collection Pavilion" stood there alone, in a piece of... empty space, and there, it was also lonely...

There seems to be some broken wood...foundation.

There should be a pagoda standing there.

The name of the tower is Library.

But... it is not so dilapidated, just a piece of... empty land.

"It's bad……"

Chang Yufeng was not angry, he just said this in a low voice and walked over quickly. It seemed that he had been mentally prepared for it, but he still wanted to see if it was true as soon as possible.

Lin Er naturally followed. It was like this all the way.

She didn't know what was going to happen, or what had happened.

But... this is not important, because if what should happen does not happen, it is difficult to say it out loud, and if what should not happen happens, then we have to face it.

It's always been like this.
