Starry.

Ah Jiu sat on the steps at the door of the villa and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, which he had just asked for from Long Twelve. Guo Xuefu and the thin master were chatting upstairs, they were not as excited as they imagined, they were still related by blood, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious than they imagined. Ah Jiu couldn't help but wonder if he met his mother one day, would he be like them, putting aside all grievances and grievances, and chatting for a while.

For Master Thin, this is the most important moment in his life, and it is estimated that it will also be the last few hours...... Ah Jiu couldn't bear to disturb, so he called out Long Twelve and Wang Siming, he asked for a cigarette, went downstairs, lit one, and put it in his mouth.

I was stunned, but I didn't suck.

The smoke was on his lips, burning silently, and he looked up at the moon in the sky, like a lifeless sculpture.

Footsteps sounded behind him, and Ah Jiu could hear that it was Wang Siming without looking back. Wang Siming sat next to Ah Jiu, also picked up a cigarette and lit it in his mouth, took a deep breath, his eyes quickly turned red, and said, "Master, I ......"

"No need to explain...... Ah Jiu waved his hand and said, "Master helped you open the air pocket, it was a meeting gift from him to you, this is his choice, you don't need to apologize to me." ”

Ah Jiu spit out the cigarette in his mouth: "Your deficiencies in internal strength can be regarded as filling in." Did Master teach you anything else?"

Wang Siming's voice was a little choked: "Master still teaches me and teaches me ......"

"Forget it," Ah Jiu interrupted Wang Siming's words and said, "You don't have to tell me what to teach you, the master teaches you martial arts, and you are also half a disciple, don't call me master in the future, the senior brother is commensurate." ”

"Master,"

"That's it," Ah Jiu took out another cigarette and lit it, this time he sucked it up, and looked at Wang Siming. "Anything else?"

Wang Siming looked at Ah Jiu, wanted to speak again, and finally spoke, "I don't know how to persuade you, but I think he is an old man." I don't want to see you like this. ”

"Okay, I got it. Ah Jiu nodded and patted Wang Siming's shoulder: "Go and rest for a while, I will be busy tomorrow." ”

"Then you ......"

"I'm alone and still. ”

Wang Siming didn't say anything anymore, got up to leave, Ah Jiu smoked the cigarette silently until the cigarette burned out, his fingers felt a burning sensation, and he threw the cigarette butt out. He sat like that. Time passed quietly.

Raising his wrist to look at the time, it was already early in the morning, the moisture was condensing, and the coat was a little clammy and cold on his body. Ah Jiu got up, just turned his head, and saw Guo Xuefu. Guo Xuefu's eyes were a little swollen, and she choked up: "Grandpa asked you to see him." ”

Ah Jiu didn't have time to answer, and the wind swept next to Guo Xuefu. Jumping upstairs in three steps and two steps, he broke into the bedroom of the thin master. It's only been a few hours. The thin master is even thinner, and he has described it as withered.

Ah Jiu knelt by the window, holding the thin master's hand, and opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

"Nine," the thin master held Ah Jiu's hand tightly and said, "Master is no good."

"Master......" Ah Jiu's tears burst instantly. He wanted to say to Master, Master, you are fine, but he couldn't say it, and at this moment he suddenly felt very powerless. It seems that there is nothing to be done except crying.

"Nine, I just told my child about the past, and I, ah, can be regarded as taking this opportunity to recall my life...... I suddenly discovered that the happiest days in my life were not when I had ideals, for the country, for the nation, nor when I was in the Oolong Temple, but when I was a child, and when I met my wife......"

The thin master's voice became weaker and weaker, and Ah Jiu knelt forward a little, trying to hear everything he said clearly.

"When I was a child, there were wars everywhere and there was a famine, my mother took me to dig wild vegetables to eat, and the wild vegetables, after eating, my tongue was green, and I still remember its taste, bitter ......"

"When I met my wife, I asked her to dance, a foreigner's dance, I can't dance, like a big horse monkey, she doesn't dislike it, and teaches me little by little ......"

The thin master's gaze began to wander, but his expression seemed to see happiness.

"Nine," the thin master's voice was a little louder: "While you can still cherish it, cherish it more, don't think about the master, regret it for the rest of your life, and at this time, you will find out that you are a sinner." In this life, it doesn't matter what ideals or beliefs you have, nothing can compare to the taste of wild vegetables, and her ......"

"Master......" Ah Jiu tried very hard to get close to the thin master, but he couldn't hear anything. Long Twelve knelt behind Ah Jiu, his head hit the ground, Wang Siming also knelt down, Guo Xuefu was stupid at the door, tears couldn't be controlled, and they flowed down his cheeks.

……

The aftermath of Master Thin is very simple, but very decent. Wang Siming passed the news to Long Kun, who arranged for Tai Pei's connections to help, and he himself was present at the scene ten hours ago.

According to Master Skinny's wishes, he and his wife were bone-to-bones, but his name was not left on the tombstone.

Except for Long Kun, Ah Jiu, Long Twelve, and Wang Siming, the other apprentices were not present. In fact, according to the thin master, it is better not to be present, he doesn't care about this. And he also knew that these apprentices of his were not idlers now, and most of them were inconvenient to come so suddenly.

Ah Jiu knelt in front of the tombstone and threw the paper money in his hand into the fire, he no longer shed tears, but everyone could see his sadness.

Krystal was beside him, and she didn't know how to persuade him in this situation. She knew how important Master was to Ah Jiu, although she didn't know Master Thin, but she loved Ah Jiu very much, so she immediately went to the airport after receiving a call, but from Los Angeles to Taipei, the plane would not teleport, and it would take more than ten hours to fly over at the earliest, so it was too late.

Ah Jiu silently burned the paper money in his hand, got up and hugged Krystal, buried his head in her arms, Krystal held him, and his eyes were red. She wasn't sad about the loss of the thin master, she was distressed to see Ah Jiu so fragile, and she didn't know how to comfort her, and the feeling of powerlessness made her feel helpless.

After a while, Ah Jiu raised his head and looked at Guo Xuefu, who was standing in black not far away, and said to Long Twelve: "Let's go, Master and Master, I haven't spoken well for decades, leave time to them." ”

Ah Jiu took Krystal's hand, came to Guo Xuefu's side, and took her hand again: "Let's go, I haven't eaten for a day, find a place to eat something first." ”

Guo Xuefu pulled her hand out of Ah Jiu's hand and silently followed behind him. Krystal looked at her, sensed the threat, and shifted to the side, grabbing Ah Jiu's arm. (To be continued.) )
