213, long time no see

The first thing Wu Zhong did after getting up and leaving was to go to Jinling, and there was one thing he wanted to be sure.

Jinling, as in the past, has never diminished in the bustle of the places it goes, and everyone is busy, unaware that hundreds of people have died thousands of miles away. Also, how could they possibly know.

Wu Zhong tossed and turned to Heavenly Street, and the atmosphere here was very solemn. The Xiao family was surrounded by everyone, and I don't know whether to go to watch the excitement or the enemy to make it difficult. In short, Wu Zhong didn't take all this to heart. Before coming to Tianjie, he deliberately changed his appearance and turned into a middle-aged man, dressed ordinarily and looking ordinary, in order to hide people's eyes. Now that the Xiao clan has changed greatly, all the Xiao disciples have become the target of public criticism, and he doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

When he came to Wang's business, the customers inside were not as good as before, and most of them went to watch the changes of Xiao's. Wu Zhong walked inside, pretending to be going shopping, looking east and west, but in fact, he was looking for someone. And this person is Yue Qingyu.

He clearly remembered that Song Huai'an personally said that Yue Qingyu told him the news of Yu Hui's disappearance, and he also heard Song Huai'an say that Song Yuanhong was going to marry Yue Qingyu. The purpose of his coming here was to confirm whether his unintentional mistake had caused Xiao to fall into this consequence, and if it was true, Master's death was inseparable from him.

But after a long time, he still didn't see Yue Qingyu's figure, I don't know if he went out, or returned to the Langya Wang clan?

He walked out of the business and found the place where he used to drink tea with Yue in a whisper, and he was bored.

In this way, he sat here for a day, and still did not see Yue whispering, and at the door of the Xiao family on the other side, the onlookers were still happy to see the Xiao family's jokes.

Just as he was getting up to leave, a small child suddenly appeared in front of him, handed him a letter, and then turned away.

Wu Zhong was stunned for a moment, and was about to stop the child, but as soon as he turned around, the child disappeared, and no matter how he looked, he couldn't see him. Wu Zhong returned to his seat and opened the letter. When I saw the signature below, I had a clear idea in my mind.

"I'm really sorry, I can't meet you, I won't be angry with me, will I? haha! But there's no way to get angry, I really can't meet with you. During this time, the cultivation world has been turbulent and turbulent, and I have heard about the Xiao family, as well as the death of your master Yu Hui, I am really sorry that I could not accompany you at that time. I am writing to you this time to explain something to you. I heard about the situation on Xiao's side, Song Huaian told you that you told me all this, and then I told Song Yuanhong, which is ridiculous when I think about it. This old boy pulled you off the horse in order to make you disgusting, but fortunately they didn't blame you, otherwise, I really can't tell.

"I know that you came to me this time, in addition to this matter, there is another matter, and it must be the one thing you are most concerned about. I am not engaged to Song Yuanhong. ”

Reading this, Wu Zhong finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. As for Yue Qingyu's informant, he didn't believe it at all, whether he had told Yue Qingyu about this matter that he knew best. What's more, Li Yunhe's rebellion is already an indisputable fact, and it must be the information he revealed. When he saw Yue whispering to him that he was not engaged to Song Yuanhong, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But what he saw next suddenly made his heart feel like ashes.

"However, although I am not engaged to Song Yuanhong, my father has already discussed with the Wang family to marry me to one of Wang's disciples. And, I've already agreed.

"I know your thoughts, and I know that you are good to me, but nothing is destined to come of it between you and me. Whether it is your identity as a disciple of the Xiao family, I am a vassal of the Wang family, and it is impossible for you and me to walk together. Rather than suffering from each other, let's just let it go. However, I don't plan to return the gift you gave me, it's a wedding gift you gave me!"

The content comes to an abrupt end here, but even if you write anything, it's boring. Wu Zhong put away the envelope, put it in the Qiankun bag, and got up to leave.

It's still bustling outside, and there's no sign of slowing down. Wu Zhong left the Heavenly Street, flew up, and turned into a long rainbow.

Wu Zhong left Jinling and didn't go anywhere, but returned directly to the broken Taoist temple at the foot of Mount Tai.

The old man was resting in the courtyard, although the weather was still cold, and the mountain wind was blowing people gasps, but the air flow in the Taoist temple was extremely mild. Although the temperature is the same, the sun shines on the body, and it is very pleasant. The old man was following the Peking Opera on the radio, when he suddenly saw Wu Zhong walking in, and immediately got up happily.

"Yo, where did you come from, why is there dust on your body, take it off, I'll wash it for you." ”

Wu Zhong was stunned for a moment, only to find that the collar on his body was covered with dust at some point, as if he had just rolled on the ground.

He chuckled and said, "It's okay, you always rest yours, don't worry about me, I'll wash myself later." I'll go and rest first, don't call me if it's okay. After saying that, he walked straight into the room and closed the door silently.

The old man was a little puzzled, although he didn't have much contact with Wu Zhong, but this kid shouldn't be the kind of person who was easily depressed, why was his mood so low today? He didn't understand, but since people had already spoken, he wouldn't ask more, if there was really a need for him, presumably this small employer would also say it.

Wu Zhong walked into the room, and the things inside were still the same as before. He was lying in his clothes, holding the quilt with the unique smell that had just been sunburned, and suddenly felt a little tired, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.

In his sleep, a hazy figure stood in front of him, not saying a word. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, Wu Zhong felt extremely familiar. This feeling is different from that of close friends, but like family members who are related by blood.

Wu Zhong looked at this person, the other party's figure was still blurred, and he said softly, "Master, is it you?"

The figure remained silent, indifferent to Wu Zhong's questioning.

Wu Zhong was puzzled, who was this person? Just as he was puzzled, a big hand suddenly appeared and instantly grabbed his face. Wu Zhong was suddenly startled, and then woke up.

It was late at night, and although there were still crowds outside, the silence here was not disturbed in the slightest. Wu Zhong got up and walked out of the room, flew to a tall tree, and looked at the brightly lit city below.

Even in the middle of the night, there are still cars driving in the streets. Wu Zhong saw that most of the residential areas had turned off the lights, and people who had experienced a busy day had fallen asleep. The breeze blowing in the sky brought a burst of coolness, which actually made Wu Zhong feel extremely comfortable, and the boredom in his heart in recent days was also swept away.

There have been too many facts that have happened in recent days, and things have not been interrupted since he returned from the East China Sea. When the master disappeared, he went to look for it, and when he came back, he encountered a catastrophe that the Xiao family had not seen for a thousand years, and in the end, the death of the master hit him even more unprecedentedly. At this moment, everything has dissipated, and everything is going forward.

Wu Zhong looked at the sky, starry, he still remembered looking at the starry sky when he was a child, fantasizing about whether there would be aliens beyond the earth. He still remembers watching movies about aliens when he was a child, and the fantasy and bizarre things in them. Now he looked at the same sky, but he deeply felt that the universe was unfathomable, the heavenly court, the heavenly realm, the human world, hell, and the western sky, so many existences were actually in this universe.

Thinking about it, he actually fell asleep again.

Xu Ting couldn't sleep today, and she came to Mount Tai to hang out at night. Although it was winter, Xu Qing didn't wear much, and she wanted to feel the cold of winter clearly to clear her mind. She walked at the foot of the mountain, looking at the brightly lit red gate above, and the endless stream of tourists came and went. She still remembers the events that she and a few other friends encountered when they ventured back into the mountains and encountered something that changed her worldview. That was the first time she had encountered something about ghosts and gods, the female ghost who planned to make her a stand-in, Wu Zhong who came to rescue her, and two others. She vaguely remembered that one of them was a monk, and the other was a fairy-like existence.

Later, when she recovered, she was in the Taoist temple. Wu Zhong had only just stepped into the monastic realm at that time, and her every move was like a child who had just stepped into the sea of school imitating the tone of an old pedant, which was a little ridiculous, but at the same time, it made her feel extremely relieved.

After leaving the temple, she would occasionally go back to offer incense. For her companion Xu Lili, she just went back to make a vow and worship, and this excuse was very appropriate, so Xu Lili never doubted it. But only she knew that she only wanted to see the young Taoist priest again. She didn't like him, at least she didn't think so, she just wanted to thank the little Taoist priest for helping her in person, that's all. But this wish has never been fulfilled, until a few days ago, I saw the figure of the little Taoist priest again in the Taoist temple.

That day, she was still trying her luck in the name of worship, and she thought that she really met Wu Zhong. When she walked into the Taoist temple and saw him, she suddenly understood her own intentions, all the excuses turned into ashes, she understood, she liked him, really liked him. But when she and Wu Zhong looked at each other, they could no longer see that young and immature eyes, but a kind of rejection of feelings, and then they understood that they could no longer have any intersection with this life-saving benefactor. So she didn't say much that day, and after a while, she turned and left.

But in recent days, she has found that her feelings for him have become more intense, and even make her a little uncontrollable. In desperation, she had to come here again, hoping for a simple solace.

Suddenly, a voice appeared in his head, which made her startled: "Long time no see." She recognized that it was Wu Zhong's voice. Xu Ting suddenly looked around, but still didn't see the other party's figure, suddenly, she couldn't help but look at a place, where it was pitch black, but there was a haze, which made her conclude that it must be Wu Zhong.

Xu Ting looked in that direction, her heart was overjoyed, she barely suppressed her excitement, and said softly: "Long time no see." ”
