In Nanhe City, the prosperity in the calm is like the most indifferent flower in the troubled times, blooming quietly, Song Zhisong did not leave after coming back, he was used to living here, so he was too lazy to move, occasionally looking forward to the scenery, and also wanted to go to the broader world to explore, but when he went out for a day, he only wanted to return, and where could there be a home outside.

He may have expectations for a wide range of ambitions, but when he actually does it, every step will feel hard and he will want to turn back.

"I'm probably not going to be able to make it for the rest of my life. Song Zhisong looked out the window, thinking of his former classmates and friends, those people in Kanglin Academy have gone their separate ways, Over the years, the only people who have a good relationship with him know the news exactly, Xu Maolin, who has become a general, and Yan Songhe, who left again after returning from Wuyang Pass.

"After so many years, I don't know where Brother Chu went. ”

At that time, I said to myself that I was going to go to the scientific examination, but then I disappeared without a trace, and I never saw each other during the scientific examination, and there was no name of the other party on the list of the winners.

"It's about going outside if they're in a bad mood, they all have more ideas about the outside. Song Zhisong thought of this, and sighed lightly, they were all all off the list, and their family backgrounds and temperaments were different, and their views were different.

It's just that Song Zhisong is the kind that is very considerate of others, he can understand Chu Yu's bad mood, and he consciously doesn't deliberately look for trouble, but after so many years, there is no news at all, which is worrying.

Thinking that Chu Yu was not used to the children of a family like them at some times, Song Zhisong did not use the power of his family to find the whereabouts of the other party, and only put his worries in the bottom of his heart.

"Young master, someone is in the city to inquire about the whereabouts of Master Chu. The butler hesitated to come over and pass the word.

"Oh?" Song Zhisong was surprised, is this causing trouble outside?" "What's the matter, where are the people, for what." ”

"It seems to be talking about Chu Gongzi, and they are not very sure, they said that they are looking for a master named Chu Yu. ”

The housekeeper hesitated even more, as far as he knew, this Chu Yu Gongzi, who was good friends with his young master, was not a master of prestige, and this title was too strange.

"Master Wangqi, his Qi-Seeking technique is not as proficient as I am. Song Zhisong blurted out such words, and only after saying it did he feel that something was wrong, even if the housekeeper in front of him was a member of the family, he still couldn't help but show an apologetic look on his face, he didn't mean to look down on the other party, but... ..."I'm afraid they're looking for someone with the same name and surname." ”

Guessing like this, Song Zhisong didn't meet those people.

A few years later, the new emperor ascended the throne, Song Zhisong heard the news again, but it was sent by the adults who came to announce the decree, and the emperor gave Chu Yu, who had not seen him for many years, a grace, although Chu Yu was not there, but his family still enjoyed the benefits of this decree, and since then it can be said that he has changed his court and become an official eunuch.

It was also in this decree that the suspicious statement of "Master Wangqi" was officially written, and said that as early as the Qianlong period, Chu Yu, the master of Wangqi, saw that the dragon qi was in his body today, and he would fly as a dragon for nine days, and now everything has come true, which is why the emperor has rewarded him.

To put it cheesily, it is the fortune-telling money given by the emperor.

Song Zhisong was very curious about the reason, invited the adult who announced the decree to drink tea, and asked carefully about the process, coincidentally, this adult was the person who recommended Chu Yu at the beginning, and immediately told Song Zhisong about those things in Beijing, and there was a sense of self-satisfaction in his words.

"If it weren't for me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the scenery of the master now!" said the young adult, who had drunk too much, his face flushed and full of glory.

Song Zhisong smiled at the corner of his mouth, he also drank a lot, but he only felt happy, he didn't expect Chu Yu to be able to do this, and he was lost for a while, if he wanted to collect hundreds of schools of qigong, why didn't he tell himself, maybe... That's it, it's all a matter of maybe, the Song family's qigong cultivation is not qualified to spread it to the outside world, I'm afraid he doesn't want to embarrass himself, so he didn't speak.

For a while, it turned out that he had just wanted to collect qigong in the first place, so he gave up the scientific examination? This kind of move was very stupid at the time, and collecting so much qigong may not be able to reach new heights, so what can he do? It is not worth it at all to give up his future for this reason, you must know that Chu Yu's talent and learning are still very good.

But at this time, although it is a different way, he has also walked out of the same way, if he is still here, he will be an official directly, and where will he still use hard research.

I just don't know where he is now, and whether he will return when he hears the news.

"If you know the news of Master Chu, please let me know, now is the time for the DPRK to employ people. ”

When he said goodbye, the adult said this to Song Zhisong again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he expected Song Zhisong to still have contact with Chu Yu, but he didn't know that Chu Yu had no news back since that time.

Sometimes, Song Zhisong will doubt himself, even Yan Songhe, who doesn't like to interact with people, will send a letter to himself or something, as a friend, Chu Yu actually left himself behind like this? In his heart, is he his friend?

"Definitely, definitely. ”

In the face of this determination of outsiders, Song Zhisong was unwilling to slap himself in the face, saying that he had long been unable to contact people, so he simply passed it perfunctorily.

This kind of grace is like buying bones with a thousand gold, it is a demonstration role, it may not be that the emperor really wants to reuse Chu Yu, Song Zhisong is not worried that they will come to find people again, and this is indeed the case, after providing a big news to Nanhe City, these angels have never come again.

There has been no news of Chu Yu, so the Chu family has also come to him to ask for news, facing the suspicious eyes of their family, Song Zhisong smiled helplessly, his friend really didn't know any news, not deliberately concealed it.

But no one believed it, everyone thought they had been keeping in touch with each other.

Song Zhisong's son did not study in the Song family's ethnology, but went to Kanglin Academy, so many years, Kanglin Academy's reputation is stronger than that of many families, and there are many children in the side branches to study here.

"Father, how powerful is that Wangqi Master?"

The teenage son's eyes were full of curiosity, and he suddenly asked a question after asking his homework, which stunned Song Zhisong.

How powerful is it? During the period of being a friend, he never knew that the other party's Qi Hope Technique could still get the title of "Master", so is it considered powerful?

Song Zhisong smiled and said nothing, and his son speculated the answer by himself, these years, Chu Yu, who has not shown up, has become a real master of Wangqi, with the emperor's affirmation, more and more praise, almost as a figure comparable to Lu Zu, even his collection of various family qigong, has been regarded as a great cause of propaganda, almost comparable to the original sage who stopped fighting with words.

I have no intention of piercing this layer of paint, nor do I have any intention of correcting those over-the-top compliments, the friendship fades with time, and that person, perhaps I have never understood, after all, he is so mysterious.

Xu Maolin, who returned to his hometown, returned to Nanhe City and got together with Song Zhisong, Song Zhisong didn't expect him to retire so early, Xu Maolin looked bitter: "After all these years, bleeding and sweating, and being injured, if you don't retire, what can you do?"

The poor are rich, and they may not be able to keep certain boundaries, the Xu family's affairs are like this, a high-powered general, a general with military power, when the war needs him, his position is extraordinarily stable, but when peace is in sight, such a general and his family have become a thorn in the side of many people, and random picking of loopholes can make him lose his family.

Generals in peacetime always exude a kind of pathos, useless, and unimportant.

Xu Maolin doesn't want to provoke taboos, nor does he want to compete with his colleagues, and he is not willing to bow his head to survive under the critical noses of civil officials.

Song Zhisong sighed lightly, there are some things that can be thought of, the four eyes are facing each other, they are all silent, the tea fragrance is cold, and they are still on the drunken guest building, but they can't find the ambition and pride of the year.

"He Guanghan is also an official now, and I don't know how to do it. ”

Yan Songhe went to Qingshan Pass again, I don't know if he came back. ”

"Chu Yu still has no news, and sometimes I'm worried—"

The people of the Chu family have long stopped inquiring about him, Song Zhisong happened to pass by the courtyard where the other party had changed, and when he saw the lively Xuanhe of that family, he thought in his heart that they probably thought that Chu Yu had died a long time ago.

Even he himself didn't have much hope for this man who had been missing for many years.

"I heard about it, and it seems that I was promoted again. ”

"Who knows, he's just that. ”

"Chu Yu, I saw him on the way back. Xu Maolin shook his head first when he said this, and said in Song Zhisong's surprised gaze, "It doesn't have to be him, it looks like it, but it's unlikely, how many years, you and I are gray-haired, where can he still be the same as he was back then, maybe it's someone who looks alike, or maybe it's his relative, it's gone by in a flash, I'm not sure." ”

Xu Maolin said in detail, it was on his way back, passing through a section of Huaishui, when the two boats were staggered, he saw a room on the second floor of the opposite ship, a person looking up at the sky, the sunshine of the day was good, he saw Chu Yu at a glance, and shouted, the other party smiled back and shook his hand, I don't know whether he is denying or greeting.

It was such a short stagger, the two boats of one south and one north left separately, Xu Maolin was not a young man who went to the army with a burden on his back impulsively, and he saluted with a boatload of his family, and it was not convenient for the big ship to turn around and track, but after thinking about it for a while, he put down this thought, and now he said it, but it is a little regrettable, and he should confirm it again.

Song Zhisong heard more things from this story, the friends of the year were not as sincere about this friendship as they were back then, no wonder, even the two who had correspondence with each other, sitting here at the moment, didn't they know what to say for a long time at first?

Over time, they all hope that the friendship will be like this, but whether it can really be so, no one is sure.

"Don't talk about this, people are still there, and there will be news sooner or later. Song Zhisong said this, bypassed the topic, and returned to the children, two and a half hundred old men, talking about the children and grandchildren are always more interested.

The topic is heated again, your children and my children, when they say that they are rising, they can't wait to set a baby kiss, how many times are the words in their mouths, in the end, they still swallow, each other has scruples, so that the excitement also seems a little vain.

Two years later, Song Zhisong received a wooden box from the dart bureau, and the delicately carved box symbolically pasted a seal, the words on it looked familiar, and after opening the box, he saw the letter before he knew that it was sent by Chu Yu.

Inside is a work that has been perfected by Chu Yu to nourish qigong, the letter strictly explains the pros and cons of the exercises, and at the bottom is a painting, the starry sky on the painting, reflected in the mind at a glance, makes people have a bit of magnificent bearing.

Song Zhisong looked at the painting first, and only opened the book of nourishing qigong for a while, and was silent for a long time after reading it, the other party is indeed worthy of the title of Wangqi master, the invisible distance is like a moat, so that Song Zhisong is stunned, looking out the window, it is early spring, and the willows are blowing...

How can you be a teenager, when it is farther than the spring breeze.

Believe me, the world is big and it's not over yet!
