Chapter 325: Broken Dreams(1/2)
The next day, the sky was dim.
At Huanhua Creek in Fenghua Mountain, colorful petals are flying, the sound of water is empty, and the fresh air purifies the soul.
Qin Shiyin, carrying a lyre on her back and carrying a flower basket filled with exquisite breakfast items, strolled towards the Spring Return Array of All Souls.
Before entering the formation, I heard the leisurely conversation of two women inside -
"Oh, Shui Lian, don't be too anxious. Master is really working hard for you. When he comes back next time, you will be cured."
"...I know, but it's really embarrassing to waste so much of his time due to personal issues."
"What a personal problem! You have to understand that without you, he would not be able to come back from the Far North! In other words, you not only saved him, but also helped us a lot!"
"Jin Yu..."
"Don't worry, I will stay with you during this time! Besides, doesn't he need your 'Rain Essence' to open the forest? Do you understand what this means?"
"Um……"
"Hehe, maybe he will come to you tonight! Just wait and enjoy the blessing~"
…
Listening to their extremely private conversation, Qin Shiyin gradually approached with doubts on her face.
At the rattan bed inside the formation, the blond loli arrived earlier than she did.
At this moment, she was sitting casually on Lan Yurou's slender white legs, and was whispering something with an "experienced" expression on her face.
"Senior Jin Yu, senior Shui Lian, good morning."
Qin Shiyin first greeted the two girls and saluted them one by one according to the rules.
"Ah, Shiyin, you're here."
Lan Yurou smiled at her and nodded.
"Ah! Isn't this our talented sister!"
Jin Yu also jumped down from Xuenen's lap and said with a smile:
"Good morning! You don't have to be so reserved in front of us~"
"yes."
Under the friendly eyes of the two girls, Qin Shiyin responded, then walked gently to the array, methodically took out several delicate snacks from the flower basket one by one, and placed them neatly on the stone platform next to the rattan bed.
"Sister Shuilian, today's snacks include your favorite 'coconut pudding'."
She said softly while packing her things.
"Ah? Really?"
Lan Yurou was startled when she heard this and looked over in surprise.
Sure enough, I saw a piece of "coconut pudding" that looked very soft and soft on a small plate on the table -
The cube-shaped fruit pieces are embedded in the complete and tight aspic, swaying charmingly in the breeze, and are as delicious and attractive as a girl in a bud.
"!"
She knew that this snack was something she had mentioned in a casual chat:
"Since Tianyi Water Snake has a special taste, fruits and other foods are often the first choice. It would be nice if there were snacks that were sweet and refreshing, like coconut and pudding..."
Unexpectedly, Qin Shiyin actually took it to heart and brought the finished product over today.
Such carefulness immediately won Lan Yurou's favor:
"Shiyin, did you do this?"
"Yeah. I'm not good at cooking, so I asked Sister Canglan for advice this morning, and with her help I managed to make the finished product... I hope senior won't dislike it."
Qin Shiyin paused and answered truthfully:
“In addition, all the desserts besides coconut pudding are made by her.”
"Oh wow~! Not bad, not bad!"
Hearing this, Jin Yu on the side was obviously extremely interested and quickly came over. After observing the delicious dessert for a few seconds, Loli stood up on tiptoes and patted her on the shoulder, saying in an old-fashioned way:
"By the way, Shiyin, do you have my share?"
"Ah, this..."
Qin Shiyin's figure froze, a little embarrassed.
After all, Lu Lingqiu has already said that she does not need to be here to take care of Shui Lian during this period. Today I came to visit with snacks because I wanted to repay Sister Shui Lian for her previous praise, so of course I only made coconut pudding.
One serving.
Seeing that she couldn't answer, Lan Yurou smiled and helped her out:
"Jin Yu, please don't bully the younger generation. Just half of each of us will be fine."
"Hehe, that's okay!"
The blond loli nodded happily and turned to Qin Shiyin: "Don't be nervous, sister, I was joking with you just now."
"Um……"
After receiving her response, Jin Yu smiled, reached out and picked up the knife, fork and plate, returned to the rattan bed, and shared the exquisite breakfast with Lan Yurou.
The early morning time flies by quickly.
In the meantime, Qin Shiyin, as usual, silently played the latest chapter of "The Waning Moon and Autumn Frost" for her at the nearby piano platform.
The snacks were delicious and the music was melodious. After finishing what she had to do, Qin Shiyin put away the tableware, slung the lyre behind her again, and said goodbye to the two girls with a flower basket:
"Senior, please pay more attention to your health. I'm going back first."
"Um."
There was not a single word or unnecessary action. Looking at her beautiful back as she left, Jin Yu couldn't help but sigh:
"It's really nice, this kid."
"...You look more like a child."
Lan Yurou smiled and reminded:
"By the way, Jin Yu. You should go back early today. I really don't need to take care of you here."
"Ouch! What are you doing? Driving people away?"
Loli pouted her little mouth and said with her hands clasping her waist:
"Don't worry, as soon as the master comes, I will retreat immediately and will never disturb your sweetness!"
She had an expression on her face that said, "I will do what I say."
"……I did not mean that."
Lan Yurou wanted to explain, but was interrupted again:
"Oh, I know~I know~! I'll stay with you for a little while and then leave. That's okay, right? At least let me finish telling you the story on the other side of the West Sea."
Jin Yu smiled and clung to her, and even took the initiative to bury her little face in the deep hole that was about to come out, insisting on talking to her for a while.
After all, Loli understood that Shui Lian didn't want to delay her cultivation.
Time is so precious, and with her character, she is very unwilling to cause trouble or trouble to anyone. Even if the person involved thinks it doesn't matter, she will still feel guilty and feel that she owes a favor.
Lan Yurou had no choice but to accept her kindness:
"Um."
"Hehe, that's right! Let me tell you, this time I was one step ahead of everyone else and got a super baby! It's a very comfortable cup..."
——
In the soft words, half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, Jin Yu told her in detail about the matters related to the Mysterious Land of Thunder, and repeatedly confirmed the existence of the "Forest of Heavenly Water" and how to open it.
After all, the relationship between the two women has been very good since they entered the palace, and both of them have received special care from Lu Lingqiu, so once they open up their hearts, they can talk about anything.
Jin Yu revealed some hidden aspects of his master's super abilities, and described them with a smirk on his face, which made Lan Yurou blush and her heart beat.
Now, the Spring Return Formation of All Spirits is empty.
She was lying alone in the formation, her mood a little complicated.
Loli has already gone back, and before leaving she smiled and said she would come to visit tomorrow.
And what she mentioned about "Yu Jing" is what Lan Yurou is most concerned about right now.
Normally, if the owner wants to successfully open the secret realm of spiritual treasures inside the "Tianshui Forest", he must obtain the "key".
Getting the "key" means getting the "rain essence".
In other words, all prerequisites are based on the occurrence of intimate relationships.
However, such threatening behavior, "You must do this if you want to save me," made her feel very uneasy.
To be continued...
