Chapter 116: Past Encounters
Why Elder Purdue's hand is here
Du Feiyu quickly thought of two possibilities.
First, Elder Purdue learned of his whereabouts and was even in his vicinity, so he left this token so that he could contact him in the future.
The second is that this token is no longer in the hands of Elder Pudu, and it is likely that some people with ulterior motives deliberately put it here.
Du Feiyu looked around at the surrounding environment, people came and went, and there was no suspicious atmosphere.
Bai weighed the card in his hand repeatedly, but whispered to himself
"Is this the real thing?"
These words reminded Du Feiyu, and he hurriedly turned over the card in his hand to look at it, and found that there was indeed a nostalgic fire rune engraved on its back.
There was a knife mark on the side of the rune, if Du Feiyu remembered correctly, it should have been left when he and Elder Pudu first met.
Ancient memories come back against the current.
That encounter was in a place that repeatedly became a battlefield.
The corpses of the last battle were not yet rotten, and the new battle covered the new corpses with another layer.
It was in this pile of corpses that the young man with the fox in his arms saw the old man with a fluttering white beard for the first time.
The indifferent temperament of the teenager attracted the attention of the old man. In that face, it seems that there is a natural calmness that looks at everything.
What shocked him even more was that the injured fox in the boy's arms seemed to be a rare snow fox in Middle-earth.
You must know that the snow fox lives on the snowy peaks of the extreme north and is not close to people.
The innate cold poison is a curse that people stay away from.
But the monster came to Middle-earth, and stayed in the boy's arms safely.
The man and the fox in front of him were leaning on each other on the edge of this wasteland-like battlefield.
Temperament, chance, roots, the elder saw everything he wanted.
He wanted to take the boy as an apprentice.
It's just that before he could speak, it was the boy who robbed him of his words in advance.
"I can go with you. He said.
The elder was stunned, and hesitated for a moment. But when he saw the gentle and calm snow fox, he gradually felt relieved.
"What's your name," he asked.
"My name is Du Feiyu. "This fox has a name, too." Because she is white, I call her Ah Bai. ”
The elder smiled.
He didn't ask the fox's name. But the boy said the fox's name almost as if he were introducing himself.
He was still worried.
He knew that this was a very intelligent teenager. As soon as we met, I predicted the actions of others.
It's just that if you're too smart, you'll often be dissatisfied with the status quo, trapped in battles, disturbed by demons, and finally strayed into the devil's path.
This is a great taboo in monasticism.
And the young man seems to have passed the age of entering the Daomen, and his heart is not pure, even if his talent is extremely high, it is inevitable that he will not go crooked in the future.
Everyone has the heart of talent. As the so-called thought came to mind, the elder thought to himself, if there was this fox that accompanied each other, everything might be different.
With the idea of giving it a try, the elder left the battlefield with the boy and the fox.
And just as he was leaving, a red slash flew from the distant sky, heading straight for the boy. The Elder blocked the surprise attack, and a corner of his hand was missing.
It was Du Feiyu, who had come back to life in the pile of the dead, and was protected by a cultivator for the first time.
The hand card engraved with knife marks was also deeply engraved into Du Feiyu's memory.
"The elder wasn't supposed to save me at that time. ”
Du Feiyu pulled out of his memories and said with a faint smile.
"I was just gambling. But in the end, the turning point is in you, and that one slash. ”
Bai sneered, "Well, I thought he didn't like me all along." ”
"That's because the elder is very boring, and he won't tease you like me, but he is indeed a very good person. ”
"The old man is a very good man, and the slave family does not deny this. ”
"Anyway, he taught you a trick and a half, don't call the old man and the old man. Du Feiyu said, "Don't say it, when I was in the Illusion Tree, I even thought of him." ”
"Hmm, your expression is disgusting. Ah Bai frowned, "It feels like I'm missing my old father." ”
"After all, I picked it up by him," Du Feiyu said with a smile, "He also taught me the exercises and passed on my knowledge." I don't know what my dad looks like, but I'm grateful for this kind of thing, I can't live without it."
"Maybe you don't"
Ah Bai always speaks with a gun and a stick, which is especially sharp.
Du Feiyu pondered for a few seconds, wondering if she was angry because of some details, but before she could figure it out, she turned to a smile.
"Ahem, forget it. You're still more likable when you don't have an expression. However, the affairs of the sect have really not been thought about so much for a long time. ”
"How much do you remember?"
"The slave family is very forgetful, and many of them can't remember it except for you. ”
Ah Bai said without thinking.
Du Feiyu smiled knowingly and touched the fox's head. Caught up in endless imagination.
"I don't know what Elder Pudu will be doing now, according to his appearance, it won't be practicing swords in the park, this world has a thin aura, and he is probably no different from an ordinary old man. ”
"Well, I think my beard will grow a little longer."
"Grow a little beard, and then like to lie in a rocking chair, use a fan, never use an electric fan, listen to the radio"
"Why the Radio?"
"Then, then watch TV, he's such an old-fashioned person, can he watch TV" Du Feiyu said, "I don't know when he cultivated to the Immortal Realm, I think that according to Master's strength, the Immortal Realm must be fine." ”
Ah Bai's eyes rolled.
"How can you be so sure?"
"His Tao is accurate, and he has no problem understanding the immortal realm. Du Feiyu said, "There is a way in life and death, forgetting the way and living forever, this is what he realized, I just followed the practice, and I did it, there is no reason why he can't do it." ”
Du Feiyu asked with a smile again
"Hey, Abai, you say, what should we say to Master when we meet?"
Ah Bai smiled and said in imitation of Du Feiyu's voice
"Yo, old thing, it's a long life. ”
Du Feiyu knocked Ah Bai's head on the ground, but thought, maybe this is also a good greeting.
"You're right."
Lao Du happily knocked on Ah Bai's head again.
Ah Baihuo took a bite back, but there was a little relief in his heart.
Lao Du's rare childishness and sincerity were all handed over to the person he considered the most precious. In the past few days, it seems that he is still the same Du Feiyu as before.
So what is she doing to herself?
There was another possibility, but the desire to reunite completely overrode the suspicion of the origin of the hand.
If the token was not left by the elders, then who else could leave it
Du Feiyu didn't think about other possibilities.
He just thinks that everything is going in a better direction.
Jingle bell, Ah Bai's phone rang, interrupting Du Feiyu's memories.
She chatted briefly, covered the microphone, and whispered to Du Feiyu
"Now, Lao Du, Xinxin asked me to go for coffee together. ”
"Hey, is it so sudden" Du Feiyu wondered, "It's almost evening, I don't sleep at night"
Ah Bai glared at Du Feiyu
"You let me sleep well these nights, the slave family can't push it anymore, you've called me five times in the past two weeks. ”
"Okay. Du Feiyu said a little boringly.
Ah Bai rubbed Du Feiyu's shoulder twice excitedly, and then smiled at Xinxin on the other end of the phone
"You wait, I'll be there soon. ”
