Chapter 383: Long Time No See
Since Cicada Xi left, Qu Nian suddenly felt empty in his heart, and he couldn't be interested in practicing swords, and he felt that he had nowhere to put his hands and feet, and he felt uncomfortable wherever he went, even if he was standing there looking at Fei Fei's concoction and medicinal materials, he felt that his posture was abnormal, but he couldn't put on a suitable posture.
It's a pity that the Ethereal Peak is too small, and there is no place to go, so he simply sat down on the steps in front of his door, looking at the newly built courtyard wall in a daze.
Ji Ling walked over at this time, as if he was a child who had done something wrong, pouted, squatted down in front of him, and said, "Qin Gongzi, Miss Cicada Xi suddenly left, is it because she is angry with me? I really didn't mean to." I...... I...... I don't know what to tell him. Why don't you go after her? β
Qu Nian smiled: "What does this have to do with you? When people go back to see your brother, you are really self-inflicted." It has nothing to do with you. β
Ji Ling said: "But ...... But I always felt like it was because of me. β
Qu Nian smiled: "You think too much, it has nothing to do with you!"
Ji Ling said: "Didn't you lie to me?"
Qu Nian smiled and said, "Why am I lying to you? The cicada is not angry! Didn't you see that she was talking and laughing when she left? Don't think nonsense." β
Ji Ling nodded and said, "Oh......" and sat down beside him.
Qu Nian's eyes began to drift again, and he looked ahead weakly, falling into deep thought.
Ji Ling sat for a while, and when he saw that he didn't say a word, he didn't bother him anymore, said a word to him, and left.
After lunch, Qu Nian really felt annoyed, especially when Chu San dared to practice swords in the courtyard again, dangling around, making him want to lose his temper.
It's a pity that the ethereal peak is too small, and he has nowhere to go, so in a fit of anger, he flew onto the roof, sat on the roof, looked at the scenery in the distance, and instantly felt much quieter, and then he took out a glass of wine, just sat quietly, and drank a sip of wine from time to time.
Sitting until the evening, Chu San dared to call him down for dinner, but he didn't have the heart to eat, so he refused.
After dark, a huge full moon rose from the east and sprinkled on the Ethereal Peak, making the Ethereal Peak even colder.
Chu Sandang jumped on the roof at this time, sat down beside him, and watched the full moon with her for a while.
Qu Nian said, "Why don't you cultivate?"
Chu San dared to say, "Master, something is wrong when I think about it. β
Qu Nian said: "What's wrong?"
Chu San dared to say: "Something is wrong with you! You seem to have lost your soul, do you have something on your mind?"
Qu Nian smiled and said, "No!"
Chu San dared to say: "Master, don't lie to me, I can see that the big shopkeeper is gone, and you are reluctant?"
Qu Nian picked up the wine jar again at this time, raised his neck and drank a large sip of wine, looked at Mingyue and muttered, "Maybe!"
Chu San dared to say: "Master, but when Miss Cicada Xi was here, I felt that you were not enthusiastic about her at all, and you were not enthusiastic about me yet." I thought you didn't like him at all, why didn't you give up after she left?"
Qu Nian sighed: "When you have something, you don't think it's precious, and only when you lose him will you understand her weight in your heart." It's like you sleep in a bed every day, you don't feel how important the bed is, and you can't imagine the existence of the bed, until someone lifts your bed away and lets you sleep on the floor, you don't know how precious the bed is!"
Chu San dared to say: "Master's analogy is very appropriate, I like to sleep on the ground, steadfast!"
Qu Nian said: "Hanhan!"
Chu San dared to say, "Then is the master already in love with the big shopkeeper?"
Qu Nian said: "I can't say how I feel. Cicada Xi has been with us for a few months, not an inch, I have become accustomed to her presence, but she is too quiet, quiet like a spring rain, moisturizing things silently, but before I know it, she has completely integrated into my life and become a part of my life, but I don't know it. Until she is gone now, my heart seems to have been dug out, empty, I don't know if this is love? In the world I used to live in, love was very luxurious, I never thought about it, I only did!"
Chu San dared to say: "Master said very much, you used to steal chickens and dogs all day long, where are you qualified to fall in love?"
Qu Nian sighed: "You still don't understand me. β
Chu San dared to say, "I understand." Actually, Master, women are all the same, all have one nose and two eyes, what difference can there be? Now that the big shopkeeper is gone, isn't there still Miss Ji Ling? And Miss Ji Ling is not bad-looking! On par with the big shopkeeper. Although she is a chicken, you can make it clear to him that she should not become a chicken, it is the same whether she blows the lamp or not. β
Qu Nian said: "You know a fart! How can it be the same? Everything in this world can be replaced, but people cannot, everyone is unique in the world, including you, otherwise why do I have to accept you as an apprentice? Is it different to accept others as apprentices?"
Chu San dared to say: "Master's metaphor is very appropriate, no one can replace me, and no one can replace Master!"
Qu Nian sighed.
Chu San dared to say: "But Master doesn't have to be sad, the big shopkeeper will come back in a few months, maybe he will come back in a few days, and you will be able to see her again soon." β
Qu Nian sighed: "The time here is so boring, let me live like a year." β
Chu San dared to say: "In the future, I will often talk to the master, and life will be better." β
Qu Nian smiled, picked up the wine jar again, and took a sip of wine.
But at this moment, Fei Fei rushed out of the room below, stood in the courtyard, pointed at them and scolded: "You two scumbags, do you still have a sense of public morality? Do you still let people cultivate? The boss is not small, he is still so naughty, like a monkey, why do you run to the roof? You can't talk at the bottom? It's love and love, just like you've never seen a woman, Lao Tzu is a single, ruthless and loveless, don't you also live well? I think you just have nothing to do when you're full, and you're so idle that your eggs hurt." β
Qu Nian said: "We don't say much! It shouldn't have bothered you, right?"
Fei Fei said: "It's not a question of whether the voice is loud or not, but a matter of your attitude, look at you, whether you stand or not, whether you sit or not, do you know that you are sitting on top of my head now? If someone else and pees on your neck, how do you feel? And I am easy to grow tall." β
Chu San dared to say: "Master, this guy seems to be a little underbeaten, it just so happens that you are in a bad mood, do you want to beat up and get angry?"
Qu Nian put down the wine jar and said, "I do have such thoughts. β
Fei Fei said: "You talk slowly, I'm sleeping." In the middle of the night, remember to put on a dress. With that, he plunged into the room again.
A few days later.
Cicada Xi and Yushu finally arrived at Wuji Mountain, because they were riding horses, and it was inconvenient to go up the mountain, so they tied their horses to the side of the official road and hiked up the mountain.
During this time, Song Meidu has also been inquiring about her sister's news, but unfortunately she has been inquiring for a few months, but her sister has not heard from her. However, I heard the news from Qin Guo that Qu Nian ran away halfway, and if my sister stayed with him, she would definitely be fine, so she wasn't too worried.
After all, Wuji Mountain is his territory, so as soon as Cicada Xi entered Wuji Mountain, he got the news, and then he brought dozens of people down the mountain, and just met Cicada Xi on the way.
Seeing Cicada, Song Meidu was also overjoyed, and at this time rushed down, rushed to Cicada Xi's side, took Cicada Xi's hand, and said happily: "Sister, you are finally back! β
Cicada Xi smiled: "Sister is fine!"
Song Meidu looked at the hundreds of people behind her and said, "Who are they? Qin Jun?"
Cicada Xi said: "Then you don't have to ask! Arrange for them to rest and entertain them." β
Song Meidu beckoned, and when someone came over, he ordered: "Bring these guests over for good entertainment, good wine and good food." β
The man answered, and took these hundreds of people from the demon clan away.
Song Meidu took Cicada Xi's hand and walked up the mountain, and then said, "Sister, where have you been during this time? Why can't you get any news?"
Cicada Xi said: "This is a long story, I'll talk to you slowly when I'm fine." β
Song Meidu nodded and said, "Then why didn't Gongzi Qin come with you?"
Cicada Xi whispered, "He and Fei Fei are busy refining the Eye of Heaven, so they don't have time to come over." β
Song Meidu exclaimed: "It turns out that the rumors outside are true, have you really found the medicinal materials for refining the Eye of Heaven?" for fear that others would hear it, so he said it very quietly.
Cicada Xi nodded and said, "At most, in a few months, the Eye of Heaven will come out!"
Song Mei was overjoyed and said, "In this way, there is hope for us to restore the country?"
Cicada Xi nodded.
Song Meidu secretly clenched her fists and said excitedly: "Great, it seems that our father has a spirit in the sky and blesses us in the dark!"
Cicada Xi was happy to see him, and she was also happy, and said, "Yes!"
Song Meidu said: "But then again, this time it's thanks to Gongzi Qin, he is really amazing." During this time, I have been paying attention to him, and I heard that he helped the Qin State turn the tide with his own strength, and went to the Yan State with 500,000 soldiers and horses, as if he entered a no-man's land, even the more than one million soldiers and horses of the Five Nations Alliance Army did not take advantage of him at all, but went back in disgrace, is this true?"
Cicada Xi nodded and said, "It's true!, so when you meet Qin Gongzi in the future, you have to learn from him, there are too many things in him that are worth learning from you." β
Song Meidu nodded solemnly and said: "I have always admired him, but unfortunately I don't have a chance, otherwise I would like to follow him all the time, across the battlefield, you don't know, I heard about his deeds during this time, but I was envious, I really can't wait to fly over and do something big with him, I am really suffocated on this Wuji Mountain." β
Cicada Xi smiled: "There will be opportunities in the future." β
Song Meidu said: "Then when are you going to see Qin Gongzi this time?" I'll go with you to see you." β
Cicada Xi's face was a little gloomy, and she said, "In a few months." β
Song Meidu was stunned and said, "Why should it be a few months? Didn't the Eye of Heaven say that it was about to be refined? Won't he give it to you?"
Cicada Xi said: "No! The Eye of Heaven will take several months to be refined, and I don't want to disturb him." β
Song Meidu nodded and said, "So that's the case." However, Qin Gongzi has a good character, and he is trustworthy!"
The siblings said as they walked, and after a while they reached the mountain, they could already see their bandits' den.
But at this moment, I saw a young man standing under a big tree on the side of the road in front of him, dressed in white. Because it was already summer, and the weather was sweltering, the man was holding a folding fan in his hand, and he was gently shaking it.
When he saw them coming, the young man closed his folding fan and came over.
This young man is none other than Mo Shuiqing.
Cicada Xi was quite surprised, and stopped at this time.
Song Meidu said: "Sister, I forgot to tell you, he has been here for several days and has been waiting for you." β
Cicada Xi frowned and said, "Wait for me?"
Song Meidu said "um".
Mo Shuiqing walked over at this time, with a bright smile on his face, walked in front of Cicada Xi and stopped, and said with a smile: "Senior sister, I haven't seen you for a long time." β
Cicada Xi smiled and nodded, it's not good to say, I almost forgot about you.
Mo Shuiqing smiled: "Senior sister, you are now soaring, it is really not easy to see you, fortunately I know here, I have been waiting for you for a few days, otherwise I will not see you in this life." β
Cicada Xi said: "I don't know what the senior brother is looking for me?"
Ink Qing smiled: "Can't I look for you if it's okay?"
Cicada Xi said: "That's not it. If there is nothing important, I want to go back and rest first, I am also tired after a long journey. β
Mo Shuiqing said: "I don't have anything important, I just want to talk to my junior sister, can you take a step to speak?"
Because Song Meidu brought dozens of people, and now they are all standing behind her, Cicada Xi waved her hand at this time, and the dozens of people retreated, leaving only Song Meidu and Yushu.
Waiting for the dozens of people to walk away, Cicada Xi said, "Senior brother, if you have anything to say, just say it here!"
Ink Qing looked around and said, "It's okay! It's quiet and cool here." After a pause, he said, "I heard that my junior sister has been staying with Qin Qunian all this time?"
If someone else asked this, Cicada Xi would definitely deny it, but after all, he was his nominal fiancΓ©, and if he denied it, it seemed to be because of his weak heart, as if there was some unsavory hookup between him and Qin Qunian. And since Mo Shuiqing asked like this, he must have been secretly inquiring about it during this time, and it has been determined, and there is no point in denying it. What's more, this guy is his senior brother after all, and he is his master's son, although his character is not good, but after all, he is a senior brother and sister, and she doesn't want to make too much trouble. At this time, he nodded and said, "Yes!"
