Broken Hairpin (3)

An Jia Li forgot about the mysterious scroll for a moment and chose to plan to read a novel whose story made her curious. Prior to that, An Jia Li had finished making up stories for Miss Liu so that Miss Liu would stop blabbering so that An Jia Li now found her own serenity in her room to contemplate. He was still saddened by the broken hairpin that Emperor Li had given him. Not only the hairpin, but An Jia Li's heart was crushed and she didn't know how to fix something that had been shattered.

In the past, An Jia Li was broken so she didn't believe in love in life before being reborn. And this time, his heart was not only broken, but broken. It's just a matter of time until everything turns to dust and is swept away by the wind.

An Jia Li placed the pieces of hairpin on the table. He really wanted to put it all back together, but he didn't have any adhesive, so he just kept it in a piece of cloth.

An Jia Li sighed a few times. His mind was tired. He doesn't even know who he is anymore. Everything was like a long dream that passed quickly and quickly. Forcing him to run in fantasy while others run from reality.

An Jia Li leaned her back on the bed and started to open Xing Yi's novel.

"I should have read the first series first" he muttered without the slightest intention of reading the first series. His energy felt drained even though he wanted to go to the Da Hua hall.

An Jia Li sighed again, "Never mind, just read this one first" he muttered then he started to read seriously the first chapter of the second series of the legend novel black and white star legend.

"Chapter one. Missing hairpin..." An Jia Li fell silent for a moment. He then thought "what is going on?. Why is the first chapter like my current story?" However, An Jia Li immediately dismissed any questions that arose and began to focus on reading.

Green peach valley - Fairy realm of life.

All the plants in the sky and the world came from the green peach valley where the fairies of life lived to take care of them.

A man dressed in dark blue arrived in the valley like a clear night that was about to bring a message for all the fairies to go to rest, but a fairy came and stopped the figure because the baby plants needed light at this time so the arrival of the figure worried him.

"Excuse me sir, who are you and from which sky? Do you have any need in Green Peach Valley?" he asked bluntly.

The figure did not answer and only looked at the fairy who asked him.

"Not you"

"What?" The fairy again asked the question because he did not hear clearly the figure's voice.

"I'm from the middle sky to deliver goods"

"Middle sky?!" The elf looked surprised but he still had to apply the rules so he again asked, "Sorry for being presumptuous sir. Can you put the identification seal here so I don't hold you back any longer?" he said. The fairy then took out a lotus flower in her handbag.

"Of course"

The rules are. No one should ask about the identity of an immortal from the middle heavens or the task he was currently undertaking. The only thing to verify if he really was from the middle heavens or not was just from his identity seal. And because the lotus flower shone golden, it meant that the figure was indeed from the middle sky so he was immediately welcomed in. All Realms knew what the middle sky meant was the star clan. And if they came to one of the realms, there were only three possible tasks they wanted to do. The first is that there is an imbalance that must be checked. Second, the damage that must be repaired. And third, there are deviations that must be destroyed. But no one thought of the fourth possibility, which was to return the tongs of a fairy who accidentally dropped it because she hit a peach tree. A ridiculous reason to make an immortal from the middle of the sky descend.

"Who is this figure from the middle heavens? Is he the main character?" An Jia Li muttered without stopping her reading activities.

The immortal figure from the middle sky finally arrived at a large cherry tree at the edge of the waterfall but unfortunately the branches were dry. Not a single flower bloomed. The first cherry tree that is about to die. That is the reality for the fairies who have tried to give life back, but unfortunately the time limit has come so the tree is just left. But when the figure touched the tree. The wind suddenly blew gently and slowly petal by petal grew on the tree that had been declared 'dead'. The cherry blossoms again bloomed majestically as if he had to pay their respects - at least once in his life, he wanted to thank the keepers of balance. Because of them, many cherry blossoms can grow without fear of falling prematurely because of the wind from hell that keeps blowing.

Some of the cherry blossom petals are left to fall as a sign that the cherry blossoms welcome the arrival of the guard.

"Who are you?. How come this tree can live again?!" A fairy who had just arrived asked with a look of admiration and fear.

"Bai Zhi- ... delivery man" he said. Zhi-Jun almost revealed his true identity, even though he was incognito.

"Delivery?. What goods?. For whom?"

Without saying much, Zhi-Jun took out the hairpin and handed it to the elf in front of him. She was dressed like the sakura that greeted her, her appearance was simple but her aura was strong enough, her eyes were like petals that didn't crumble even when the wind blew them.

"This hairpin is for you. Yours" Zhi-Jun explained briefly with a slight correction

His last words were impressed if he gave the item, even though he only went to return the item he found to its original owner.

"Ah, that's my hairpin!. How did you find it? Where did you find it?. Ah, thank God. I thought it was lost. This is a precious hairpin. Thank you for returning it" the fairy looked very happy. Everything that made his face look full of stress had now lost its weight.

"Then my job is done. Excuse me-"

"Wait! You, stop by first. I have a good peach wine. Have some before leaving as my thanks" he said.

"But I can't stay long"

"It's okay. You just accept my gratitude, that's enough," said the fairy. Now he was no longer worried so he was fine. The fairy gave a smile that bloomed like a flower that bloomed beautifully.

Zhi-Jun was involuntarily mesmerized by that smile, but he soon came to his senses after the elf handed him a white bottle containing a thousand year old peach wine.

"Thank you. I have to go now"

"Are you sure you don't want to sit down and have a drink?" asked the elf who seemed a little disappointed, even though he wanted to chat for a while with Zhi-Jun who had returned the hairpin.

Zhi-Jun saw the water of disappointment on the peach elf's smiling face, so his heart was slightly moved and said "next time I'll stop by" curtly then left. That was the brief meeting of the two. But who knew if Zhi-Jun was so sorry. It took him a long time to get back to Green Peach Valley just to ask one thing.

"Why was he so happy when his hairpin was returned?, he even said it was a valuable item. Was it someone's gift to him?" Zhi-Jun asked himself so many questions and didn't get any of his questions answered. He just got curious and other strange feelings.

"Why do I feel upset?"

Back again to the green peach valley. Apparently the elf who had put back his precious tweezers was a little curious and sensed that something was off. And he only realized it after some time had passed. "Since when was there a delivery man without a shipper? Was he the one who actually found my hairpin or was someone else just letting the delivery guy send my hairpin back?" Those two things had filled the elf's question as long as he had gone to tend a peach tree until it bore fruit in no time. The peach fairy seemed to be distracted by her unfocused thoughts.

"Ying-Ying, what are you doing?!. You're exaggerating!. Look at those peaches!" Shouted a fairy who woke him up. The peach fairy was named Ying-Ying.

"Good grief!" Ying-Ying immediately stopped her activities.

"What's wrong with you?. Isn't your hairpin back? Why are you still looking so gloomy?"

"I...I'm just curious about the person who found my hairpin. Can you help me, Mei Lin?"

"What?"

"You guarded the entrance that day. When the cherry tree dies it lives. Can you tell me who entered the green peach valley?"

"Wait. You want me to reveal all identities?"

"Yes. Can you?"

"Okay. Anything for my friend" the fairy called Mei Lin then opened her lotus to show the list of visitors who came on a day she couldn't forget because the dead cherry trees bloomed again even if only for a short time.

"There isn't any ..."

"What's not there?"

"Identity of the consignor who arrived"

"Courier?"

"Yes. He returned my hairpin. But it's not on the list."

"I guess I don't accept visitors to deliver goods either... wait!. Shipper?!" Mei Lin thought back to that day and realized something. "That's right. At that time I only focused on the middle heaven's words so I only faintly heard the next sentence" Mei Lin muttered.

"What do you mean?. What do you faintly hear? What is the middle of the sky??"

"That day. There was an immortal from the middle heavens coming. But because he said from the middle sky, so I didn't focus on other words, but I still remember it faintly. I heard him say that he was about to send goods"

"Th-you mean. An immortal from the middle of the heavens bothered to come just to be the shipper of this item?" Ying-Ying pointed at her hairpin.

"I don't know. I doubt it, but I can't deny it"

"Who's he-"

"Ying-Ying. Please don't say if you want me to unseal the immortal identity of the middle heavens. I don't want to be punished"

Ying Ying was silent. He knows that. "You're right. We must not unseal the immortal identity of the middle heavens. I won't trouble you any more. Thank you."

Ying-Ying was again depressed by her growing curiosity.

"Who is the immortal from the middle heavens who wants to trouble himself? I must meet him again and express my gratitude properly!" Ying-Ying was determined and after that he went to the border to see the immortals going in and out of the central sky. He waited for the figure he was looking for, but all he saw was a guard who stayed where he was like a rock.

On the other hand. Zhi-Jun noticed the peach elf's arrival, but because he wasn't wearing his disguise, he couldn't help but remain silent without being able to meet him to ask the question that was bothering him.

"What is he doing now?, why is he there again?" Zhi-Jun's mind was curious because Ying-Ying was watching from behind the big peach tree that he hit a while ago so the hairpin fell off.
