Chapter 311 Osmanthus Spirit
After seeing Bai Lingshan holding a blade of grass in her hand, Yu Hongye said loudly: "These blades of grass reflect the health status of the osmanthus trees, so even if you don't go to the osmanthus garden, you should check the status of the grass here."
Bai Lingshan was stunned for a moment and immediately retracted her action.
"Let's go, the grass is in good condition, and we should be having a leisurely evening."
"..."
At this moment, Bai Lingshan was sweating inside. In fact, the moment she held the grass in her hand, all she was thinking about was pulling it out.
Seeing Yu Hongye walking out of the stone gate, Bai Lingshan quickly changed her mindset and walked over carefully.
The stone door closed, and Bai Lingshan was about to ask where they were going today, but at this moment, Yu Hongye turned around.
The two were already standing close to each other, and when Yu Hongye turned around, Bai Lingshan, who hadn't reacted in time, bumped into him.
Wait, as Bai Lingshan, her instinctive reaction is naturally faster than her brain.
So as expected, Bai Lingshan launched a surprise attack on him! But, how could Yu Hongye have anticipated this?
Then, there was a scene where Bai Lingshan pushed Yu Hongye hard, almost causing him to fall. . .
"……Well."
Bai Lingshan blinked awkwardly, looked at Yu Hongye who was hesitant to speak, and quickly bent down to apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!!"
Yu Hongye sighed and crossed his arms over his chest: "...I was distracted." Then, he said solemnly: "Tell me about the mark."
In response, Bai Lingshan exclaimed "Ah", and seeing Yu Hongye's serious face, she silently recalled all the conversations in the thatched cottage.
"After thinking about it, the mark should have been there when you went to the dreamland to look for Meng Yiyan."
Bai Lingshan was shocked when she heard this, but she quickly accepted the fact. "Yes... yes."
She had known Yu Hongye for a long time and knew that he was thoughtful and insightful. She had concealed this from him only because of the habit of "school rules." "...I didn't mean to hide it." Bai Lingshan explained weakly.
Yu Hongye accepted it calmly: "It is usually hidden very carefully. If I didn't find it, no one else should know it, right?"
Haha
Bai Lingshan was delighted and suddenly felt an indescribable excitement. Then, her expression also revealed a little bit of her thoughts. After discovering this, Yu Hongye looked elsewhere.
"Don't be fooled by the old man's expression. The knowledge of spells I taught you was all learned from him. It's just that he doesn't accept disciples. Otherwise, I would have asked him to teach you directly."
As soon as Yu Hongye said this, Bai Lingshan's relaxed mentality suddenly tensed up. If it wasn't for Yu Hongye's reminder, she would have forgotten how Suo Xifa discovered her willow leaf mark.
"Does he know much about the Book of Featherfall?"
At that time, I just heard her take out the Willow Leaf Knife, but how did I discover the existence of the mark through this?
Yu Hongye looked serious as he looked up in an unknown direction: "It seems that he knows everything, but no one knows his secret."
Seeing that these eyes that could see through everything were also covered with haze, Bai Lingshan could only stare blankly and utter "Oh".
At this time, Yu Hongye looked back at her with suspicion: "I am now wondering, will the effect of this willow leaf mark be the same as your star protection mark?"
Bai Lingshan was shocked, but considering what happened last night, this assumption was not true.
"Last night I tried to summon the Willow Leaf Blade through the mark, but there was no response..."
"Is that so..." Bai Lingshan nodded carefully, and Yu Hongye also fell into deep thought.
Ever since the recovery of the Book of Fallen Feathers talisman, the talisman has recognized its holder, and a unique mark of the talisman will appear on the holder's body. These are their common understandings.
Because exclusive marks are extremely rare, the only star protection mark has become a typical preconceived notion.
The Star Protection Amulet has the ability to protect, so the ability of its mark will take effect when the holder is accidentally hurt. If this situation is transferred to the Soul Extinguishing Amulet, the ability of its mark should be to summon it at will without using the amulet. But last night, when she tried, she didn't succeed...
The two of them were silent for a moment, and Yu Hongye sighed:
"In the next few days, just concentrate on taking care of the Osmanthus Garden. Don't worry about other things. I'll go to West Village 1 first. You can just come here in the evening."
"Yeah." Bai Lingshan nodded.
At this point, the conversation ended, Yu Hongye turned and left, Bai Lingshan stared at his departing figure in a daze...
Due to the adjustment of the activity time, Bai Lingshan took a short nap after lunch. Maybe it was because she didn't get enough rest on weekdays, and when she finished her nap, it was already 23 o'clock.
Bai Lingshan was sleepy and sat aimlessly on the edge of the bed. Suddenly, her stomach growled, which made her much more awake.
"It's eleven o'clock..."
A little hungry...
Although she lived in the Clock Tower of the Kingdom of Jingdu and looked at the timekeeping potted plants, she was still used to using the "human world time" that she had been exposed to for more than ten years. However, the reason for not having a free dinner today must be because her work in West Village was suspended.
Bai Lingshan stood up and tidied herself up. Seeing that the twenty-fourth leaf was about to take shape, she walked to the teleportation crystal ball placed in the corner. With a strange light emanating from her body, she was already standing in Guque's house.
The Kingdom of Jingdu at the time of twenty-four leaves was no different from usual, so when Bai Lingshan came to Guque's golden birdcage house, she still saw Guque's gentle smile.
"Miss Bai, be careful when you go out."
Bai Lingshan responded repeatedly: "Yeah!"
Afterwards, Bai Lingshan walked out of the clock tower. After an unknown amount of time, she followed the memory in her mind and came to the osmanthus garden. At this time, the black stone door in front of her was closed, and behind the stone door was still a patch of weeds...
Bai Lingshan sighed and made a rough judgment in her mind.
"How boring..."
The cold wind blew, and in the wilderness, Bai Lingshan sat by the stone gate, looking at the place that even ghosts despised. Suddenly, golden light spread behind her, and countless firefly-like creatures flew out from the weeds. When Bai Lingshan stood up and looked, the extremely ordinary stone gate turned into a spectacular gold-inlaid exquisite guardrail, and through the gap in the guardrail, she saw the sweet-scented osmanthus tree surrounded by fairy mist.
when!
Perhaps the guardrail had the ability to sense people coming, and it opened automatically when Bai Lingshan approached. At this moment, Bai Lingshan was already amazed by this osmanthus forest.
Born in Tianxiang City, she would never see people growing osmanthus trees in reality. And now, how could she have imagined that the first time she saw an osmanthus tree in tree form would be in this strange country of Jingdu.
Bai Lingshan moved slowly, immersed in their fragrance that spread from thousands of miles away.
"Newbie?"
Bai Lingshan came back to her senses after hearing this and quickly locked onto the source of the sound.
There was a strange flower-like monster standing in front of the wooden house with six walls. Four yellow tentacles were swinging back and forth on the stems and leaves of the plant. Bai Lingshan looked closely and saw a transparent furry ball that looked like a head in the middle of the four yellow tentacles...
"Hello, newcomer! I am Guihua Lingjinlun. When I see you appear, I can foresee these brothers and sisters growing up happily!"
