"Bang bang bang! (Knocking on the door) Senior Wei!"
"Bang bang bang! (Knocking on the door) Senior Wei!"
......
Lan Jingyi almost knocked down the door of the Jing Shi before hearing any movement. Soon, heavy footsteps approached closer and closer. With a loud push, the door opened to reveal Wei Wuxian, who was half asleep but clearly filled with resentment and killing intent, staring at him.
"Lan Jingyi, you better give this old man a reasonable explanation, or else I... Hey hey hey, you little brat, what are you trying to do! Hey..."
"Wei Wuxian's intimidation might work on other juniors, but for Lan Jingyi who follows him around all day, it's basically not intimidating at all. Before he could finish his sentence, Lan Jingyi dragged him out the door.
"Lan Jingyi, have you gone crazy early in the morning?"
"What's with the early morning, it's already a quarter past nine!"
"Where are you taking me?"
"Senior Wei, just follow me."
"Then you walk slower, I'm getting old and can't handle your dragging me along like this!"
"Senior Wei, you don't need to scare me. Now that you've achieved the golden core and have a dual spiritual connection, I've heard from the five elders that even if you were to fight Xuanwu, you'd still have energy to spare."
Wei Wuxian was speechless. Ever since he achieved the golden core again last month, the excuse of having a weak body had completely lost its effect. Not only did Lan Xichen increase the number of times he led night hunts, even Lan Qiren handed over half of the matters he had been managing for decades, leaving Wei Wuxian no room to refuse.
Nowadays, he is truly living up to the title of Mrs. Second Lan, holding power second only to the sect leader Lan Xichen and Lan Wangji the Disciplinary Officer. Considering the current situation, Ancestor Yiling has resigned himself to his fate, after all, who made him "marry and follow"!
"Sizhui!"
"Jingyi! Senior Wei!"
Wei Wuxian followed Lan Jingyi as they meandered through the back mountain for quite a while before finally seeing Lan Sizhui waiting on a small stone bridge. This mountain top was originally dense with forests. Although it was still within the Lost in the Clouds territory, aside from the patrolling disciples, not many people would come here on ordinary days.
"Sizhui, are you ready?"
"Mm."
"Sizhui, what are you doing here? Come clean, what are you two up to!"
"Senior Wei, you'll find out in a moment."
"Yeah, stop asking and come with us quickly."
Now it's better. With his left hand being pulled by Lan Jingyi and his right hand being held by Lan Sizhui, Wei Wuxian felt like a pig about to be roasted over a fire. Finally, Xiao Shuang Bi brought him to their destination, a newly built waterside pavilion, in less than half a cup of tea's time.
"What in the world is this...?!"
At the moment of sudden enlightenment, Wei Wuxian saw the sky filled with kites of various shapes and colors, large and small. Butterflies, dragonflies, goldfish, colorful flags, dragons, blue birds, pinwheels... and two rabbits flying in the middle! The last time he saw so many kites was at the Lotus Flower Cove years ago, when he had not yet come to study in Gusu.
"Senior Wei, how do you like it?"
"Mmm, looks great! Where did you guys get so many kites from?"
"We found these while night hunting around, it took us almost half a year to gather them!"
"You guys?"
"Yeah, look over there!" Following Lan Jingyi's direction, Wei Wuxian noticed that the juniors who usually went night hunting with him were all on the opposite bank. Even Zizhen had rushed over from Baling and was waving happily at him. All the kites in the sky were flown by the juniors.
"You guys, this is..."
"Senior Wei, it's ordered by Lord Hanguang."
"Lan Zhan? Lan Zhan, why are you making them do this? Is today a special day?"
"Senior Wei, are you half asleep?"
"Lan Jingyi, I'll give you a good scolding if you dare say I'm half asleep. If I knew, would I need to ask you all?"
"Senior Wei, today is your birthday!"
Xiao Shuang Bi knew that Wei Wuxian had no memory, but didn't expect that he would even forget his own birthday. Wei Wuxian also suddenly realized, saying that a few days ago Lan Wangji was preparing something secretly, and last night he didn't play his guqin as usual, instead coaxing him to sleep early.
"Lan Zhan? How come I didn't see him?"
"Don't worry, Senior Wei, he's still behind us!"
"Anything else?"
Lan Jingyi gestured to the opposite bank and, together with Lan Sizhui, pulled Wei Wuxian towards the mountain. After walking about a mile, a faint lotus fragrance drifted in the wind. It was already late autumn, so how could there still be lotus fragrance? However, reality told him that lotus flowers could bloom in autumn. But he was the Ancestor Yiling, and with one glance, he could see that there was a formation under the lotus pond.
"Sizhui, did you do this too?"
"The lotus was planted by Lord Hanguang before Meng Qiu, and has been nurtured with formations ever since."
"I told you, the formation you two have been practicing for less than half a year, and Jingyi is just a half-hearted learner. It has to be my Second Brother Lan from our family~"
"Senior Wei, why am I considered a half-hearted learner?"
"You have to draw the water-controlling formation ten times, what else would you be if not a half-hearted learner?"
"Ah! Sizhui, did you leak the secret?"
"Hey Jingyi, I didn't, don't falsely accuse me."
"You little rascal! (a hairy chestnut) I can see your schoolwork."
"Oh~ (pouts) I'm not just a half-hearted person~ Although the formation wasn't set up by me and Sizhui, at least we dug this lotus pond together with everyone for a full five days!"
"Alright, alright, thank you for your hard work, Young Master Lan! We, little Yuan, also worked hard! Brother Xian will give you something good to play with later!"
"What about mine!"
"You have it too~ Everyone has it, okay?"
"That's about right."
Lan Jingyi This carefree nature really resembles his childhood, more accurately, it's more like his junior disciples. The swaying pink lotus in front of him brings back memories, and Wei Wuxian feels as if he's seeing his teenage self, playing around the lotus pond with his junior disciples. Either getting a big lotus leaf on his head, or picking a fresh lotus flower to chew on.
Lan Sizhui is more attentive, noticing a hint of sadness in Wei Wuxian's expression, and immediately nudged Lan Jingyi's shoulder. The two exchanged a look and decided to continue on to the next location. Wei Wuxian had already accepted the fact that he was being led by the two juniors again, and was even starting to look forward to what other surprises lay ahead for him.
Sure enough, true family never disappoints. As the frosty red leaves diminished the green, a large expanse of maple forest gradually came into view, with layers of trees displaying various shades of red, creating a picturesque scene. In the midst of it all, there was a person standing in a pavilion.
"Wei, brother."
" Huaisang? How did you come here!"
Seeing an old friend, Wei Wuxian is happy. Nowadays, Nie Huaisang is busy as a sect leader and doesn't have time to see people. The last time they met was four or five months ago.
"It's all because of Lord Hanguang."
"Lan Zhan?"
"At the request of Lord Hanguang, I have brought you some good things."
Nie Huisang stepped aside, revealing a table full of wine jars behind him. They seemed to have been newly unearthed from the ground in recent days. There were various types of wine such as Zhaoyan Red, Zhuye Green, Xiaoyao Brew, Qionghua Dew, as well as Hongmao, Dukang, Tusut, Xifeng, and Xinfeng. Of course, the most attractive one was Emperor's Smile! Ten jars of fine wine, emitting ten strands of fragrance. Wei Wuxian's gluttonous nature was aroused.
"Oh, Huaisang, you truly are a good brother! It's been a long time since we drank together, let's have a good time!"
"That's exactly what I had in mind!"
The so-called "drinking in a row" means to drink a bowl of all the wine one by one. Xiao Shuang Bi quickly opened and poured the wine, Wei Wuxian drank with great pleasure! Especially the Emperor's Smile, the mellow fragrance was something he had never tasted in his two lifetimes.
After ten bowls, the cheeks of the two were flushed with alcohol, Wei Wuxian wanted to drink another round, but Nie Huisang and Xiao Shuang Bi stopped him.
"Senior Wei, you can't drink anymore. There are still arrangements to be made later!"
"Brother Wei, don't worry. The drinks are all yours. There's no need to rush."
"Alright then!"
Wei Wuxian smacked his lips and followed the two juniors up the mountain, still feeling unsatisfied. Meanwhile, Nie Huaisang watched their backs, feeling relieved and content. No one knew that this wine was saved by Nie Huaisang in the first year after Wei Wuxian's passing. He had originally intended to save these fine wines, so that when his soul returned to the dust, he could bring the wine to have a good drink with his good brother again.
Fortunately, he fulfilled this wish in his lifetime. Although bringing Wei Wuxian back to this world was driven by his own selfish desires, from the moment he found the sacrificial manuscript, he swore that regardless of the success of his plan or whether Wei Wuxian blamed him, the cherished brotherly bond would never change.
"Brother Wei, in the days to come, you must get along well with Lord Hanguang."
Here, Wei Wuxian and the other two are about to reach the summit, but Xiao Shuang Bi stops and insists that only he should go up. Wei Wuxian understands that the main person in charge of this drama must be waiting for him up there! Thinking that he will soon see his own Dao companion, his steps become lighter, almost running and jumping towards the mountaintop, where he sees Lan Wangji standing at the edge of the cliff.
"Wow~"
Just as I was about to shout "Lan Zhan," Wei Wuxian paused, "Snow Country Wonderland" is just like this! Everything in front of me is covered in silver, and it looks like a snow plate has leaked from the sky. Velvet-like snowflakes are floating and dancing, landing on the rocks, leaves, and on the head and shoulders of the most beautiful person in the world.
"Wei Ying, come here."
I don't know when Lan Wangji turned around and extended a hand, with the same smile he had when buying the rabbit lantern. Lan Wangji had said that he only smiled like this to himself.
"Lan Zhan!"
In just a dozen steps, Wei Wuxian spent two lifetimes, endured so much suffering, shed so much blood, but it was all worth it in the end. He dashed into his lover's arms and nuzzled against the familiar neck, acting coquettishly.
"Why aren't you wearing an outer robe?"
"It's all because of that kid Jingyi, he not only woke me up but also dragged me out before I could even put on my clothes."
"Well, he should be punished."
"Hehe, considering how dedicated this kid is in helping Second Brother Lan prepare for these things, let's not punish him."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"Now you really listen to everything I say."
"It was my fault before."
"No, Second Brother Lan is the best in the world! Well, he's the best to me! Don't be nice to anyone else!"
"Okay, not nice to anyone else. Wei Ying, do you like these...?"
"Like them? Why wouldn't I? Spring kites, summer lotus, autumn wine, winter snow. Second Brother Lan wants to spend the Four seasons with me, but I have other thoughts."
"What are you thinking?"
"Of course... it's to spend my life with Second Brother Lan! Such a wonderful person has captured my heart. Four seasons are not enough, it must be a lifetime, not a day less, not an hour less, not a moment less, not even a blink of an eye less. After this life, I will ask the heavens for another life, and another, and another. I, Wei Ying, want to be with Lan Zhan for all eternity!"
Wei Wuxian's emotions have always been straightforward, open, and purer than beautiful jade. What else needs to be said now? The two of them gazed deeply at each other and silently shared a kiss, for eternity, day and night without end.
"Gu~"
A certain little glutton's impatience interrupted such a beautiful moment. Lan Wangji released Wei Wuxian's lips and indulgently looked at the shy person in his arms.
"Are you hungry?"
"Yeah, I haven't eaten yet. Just had some drinks at Nie's place, and now I'm even hungrier."
This pitiful look with a pouting mouth softened Lan Wangji's heart, and he scooped up Wei Wuxian's knee and turned down the mountain. No matter how beautiful the scenery, it is not as important as the person in his arms. Of course, another important reason is, if he doesn't feed people, how can he "collect debts"? He has wasted so much effort and spiritual power, but he can collect so many, many... many "debts"!
Wei Wuxian: Lan Zhan, I can't go on anymore! I really can't! Can we continue tomorrow?
Lan Wangji: Delaying it by a day will only double the workload, are you sure?
Wei Wuxian: ...Can we take a break?
Lan Wangji: Speak again, and you will be punished again!
Wei Wuxian (Afterward): So tired, exhausted!
Lan Wangji (Afterward): So full, but I can still go on!
