139 â People complicate things!
After a shower and changing into clean, dry clothes, the feeling of discomfort in Li Muyangâs heart gradually faded.
Seeing Lin Canghai and Qiandu staring at him with a puzzled look on their face, Li Muyang quickly said with a smile: âCome on, we have class, we must not let teacher Yang wait.â
âAre you okay?â Lin Canghai asked with concern. Li Muyangâs expression was indeed strange back then, like it was because of excessive excitement that he lossed control of his emotions. They all grew up listening to the stories of the brave dragon heroes, they should have a strong immunity to dragon slayingâ-who did not shout the bold, visionary words âIâm going to be dragon slayer heroâ when they were younger? When a teacher asks students what is their dream, eight out of ten people in class would say to slay a dragon and the other two would say to marry a dragon slayer hero.
Could it be Li Muyang came from the remote desert or prairies? Because he hasnât heard of the dragon slayer stories, so his reaction was so strong. But he clearly has an accent of West Wind Kingdom?
âIâm alright.â Li Muyang said with a smile. âDonât know why, every time I see Nujiang, my emotions are particularly strong. I feel my blood racing and have the urge to immediately bring my sword and jump down to slay a few dragonsââ
The first time Li Muyang saw Nujiang, tears incessantly streamed down his cheeks, this matter was certainly known by everyone. In that case, Li Muyang might as well speak out on his own initiative to avoid people being skeptical about him.
âNever let a person be curious about you, that will put yourself in danger.â
Who was it that said this phrase?
Lin Canghai nodded, saying: âRed can really inspire the morale of people. Moreover, Nujiang is majestic and spectacular, its history is extraordinary, itâs a place of mysteriousnessâ-maybe you were affected by its majesticness or possibly even sensed the anger of Nujiang.â
âI see.â Li Muyang displayed an expression as if he suddenly came to realise. âI couldnât understand before. Such a beautiful river, why would tears flow out of my eyes whenever I look at it? At that time I thought there was a problem with my eyes and begged teacher Yang to help me change accommodationâ-after hearing Canghai classmateâs explanation, I realised that there are nothing wrong with my eyes, but itâs because Iâm too sentimental. Well, people from Jiangnan are romantic. Girls are like that, boys tooâââ
Li Muyang shyly smiled, looking at Lin Canghai and Qiandu. âI hope you wonât laugh at me.â
âWhy would we?â Lin Canghai waved his hand. âThis shows brother Muyang is someone who express his feelings directly.â
Qiandu also smiled, saying: âI think thatâs good. Every time I look at Nujiang, I also feel excited like Muyang classmate, I cannot wait to draw my sword and slay dragonsâ-unfortunately my skills are not good enough and my strength is not enough. I have to learn from teachers first before I search for dragons. Only then will I become a dragon hero known to the future generations.â
âRight. We should be like that.â Li Muyang applauded. âWhy donât we first learn dragon language. How does that saying go again? Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. When we encounter a dragon, we could first communicate with them and urge them to surrender. After all, all living things are equal; we must give them an opportunity to correct their errors. Silent slaughter is too impolite, nor does it exhibit the spirit of Buddhism and Taoism. If they stubbornly resist and not surrender, we then rush up to kill themâ-but I think dragons are not that stubborn, I think they will surrender first.â
âââ-â
Li Muyang was ready to head to class when Qiandu suddenly shouted aloud: âWait a minute.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Li Muyang turned around, asking: âQiandu classmate is something wrong?â
Qiandu came over, reached out her hand to help Li Muyang neatly fold his collar. In a hurry, Li Muyang did not notice whether his clothes were properly arranged.
âThank you.â Li Muyang expressed his thanks with a blushing face, he could feel his heart pounding in his chest. Such close contact with a beautiful young girl, Li Muyang was not used toâbut he was willing to make changes and compromise.
After Qiandu sorted Li Muyangâs clothes, she easily pulled out Li Muyangâs wooden hairpin on his hair, saying: âWho helped Muyang classmate comb your hair before? Today, they did not comb it.â
âIn the past, it was my mom and my sisterâ-â Li Muyang said sheepishly. His hair was not this long before, he also didnât care how long his hair was. Every morning after waking up, his father, mother or sister would conveniently help him sort out his hair. Simple and easy. After he arrived at Starry Sky, he needed to take care of everything himself. Other matters were fine, but managing his hair was too difficult. He only just learned, but his standard of binding hair was unbearable to look at.
Qiandu used her fingers to help him comb through his hair, then rolled up his hair and firmly secured in the middle with the wooden hairpin.
Because the distance was too close, the girlâs orchid aroma once again travelled into Li Muyangâs nostril.
Even the air Li Muyang inhaled was saturated with Qianduâs scent, the air Qiandu exhaled was once again deeply breathed in by Li Muyang.
Li Muyang thought to himself: people often say that âbreath in same air, share a common fateâ, right?
However, Li Muyang has nothing but good feelings towards Qiandu. Sheâs a good, gentle and kind girl. Better than that Lu Qiji millions of times over.
Qianduâs movement was quick and skillful.
She stepped back two steps, surveyed her own masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction: âThis is much more pleasing to the eye.â
Seeing Li Muyangâs face flushing red and avoiding her eye contact, she giggled out loud: âMuyang classmate is blushing.â
Li Muyang blushed even more, he lifted his head to take a glance at Qiandu: âQiandu classmateâs face is red too,â
âIs it?â Qiandu, looking slightly surprised, touched her face, and as expected there was a warm feeling.
Without being flustered at all, she naturally and gracefully said: âProbably because itâs my first time helping a boy with something like this.â
âItâs also my first time.â Li Muyang said hurriedly, as if he has something to prove.
Qiandu couldnât help but laugh out loud again: âMuayng classmate, youâre lying to me. You said that your mother and sister helped take care of your hairâââ
âOh, is that so.â Li Muyang said seriously: âItâs my first time letting you fix my hairââthis has never ever happened before.â
ââââ Qiandu felt this guy looks simple and honest, but in fact is quite shameless.
Lin Canghai looked at Qiandu with a smiling face, saying: âBig sister Qiandu, youâre dangerous like this.â
Qiandu smiled a litle, saying: âLife is really simple but people insist on making it complicated.â
