Chapter 207: Anyone but me can
Xue Feng, the head of the Xue family, once said that his mother's maiden family was the Du family.
And the piano left by my mother is engraved with the word 'Qingxi', which is my mother's name.
Du Qingxi is Dongfang Shuo's mother's full name.
But Du Qingxue and Du Qingxi, their names are so similar, is it just a coincidence?
“...... Your mother?"
Du Qingxue looked at Dongfang Shuo with a little doubt on her face.
And Dongfang Shuo saw the look on her face at this time, but he was more puzzled than her.
Doesn't she know?
Dongfang Shuo asked again: "Master, have you seen my mother?"
"We met for the first time when you were eight years old. Du Qingxue's eyes seemed to be recalling something, and at the same time said, "At that time, your mother had already entered the ground, and I naturally never saw your mother." ”
"I mean, before you took me to the Heaven Dou Sect, did you see my mother?"
Dongfang Shuo continued to ask.
Du Qingxue paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
Such an answer made Dongfang Shuo frown.
He then asked, "Master, when I was eight years old, why did you bring me to the Heaven Dou Sect? At that time, I had only been cultivating for two years, and I didn't have any martial arts talent at all. ”
"You can see it. Du Qingxue smiled, "Your master and I are as wise as a torch." Your little apprentice, Su Zhi, isn't that the best proof of this?"
Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
In this case, there seems to be nothing wrong with that.
Could it be that the master really brought him to the Heaven Dou Sect just because of his talent?
Is it all just a coincidence?
"Master, do you know my mother's name?" Dongfang Shuo seemed to be unwilling in his heart, and asked.
Du Qingxue looked at him and said with a smile: "If you are accepted as an apprentice, I will naturally know the names of your parents." Your father, called Dongfang Baye, is the great elder of the Dongfang family. And your mother, named Du Qingxi, is the pearl of the once prosperous head of the Du family. ”
"Master knows about the Du family?"
"Anyway, I've been living in Qingzhou for decades, how can I not know the Du family?" Du Qingxue still smiled.
Dongfang Shuo paused, stared at her, and asked, "Then Master, why is your name so similar to my mother?"
Du Qingxue shook her head and said: "There are no wonders in the world, there is more than one Du family in Qingzhou, and the similarity of names does not mean anything." I can only say that your mother's father and my father are like-minded. ”
This answer made Dongfang Shuo purse his lips.
He always felt that something was not right, but he just couldn't find the reason.
So at this time, he was also meditating hard about what was wrong.
"Apprentice, is there anything else you want to know?" asked Du Qingxue.
Dongfang Shuo raised his head, this question suddenly disrupted his thoughts. If you ask him what he needs to ask, he can't think of it in a short time.
Subconsciously, he shook his head.
Du Qingxue said: "In this case, there is one thing to say as a teacher. ”
"Master, what's the matter?"
Dongfang Shuo asked.
Du Qingxue raised her eyes slightly and looked outside the main hall.
Then, she spoke, "Apprentice, do you remember Temu?"
"Ironwood?"
At the mention of this name, a lonely figure immediately appeared in Dongfang Shuo's mind.
A few months ago, he fell into Han Tongyang's trap in order to take revenge on Dongfang Shuo, and almost killed Dongfang Shuo with his own hands because of this. Because of that time, he changed his former obedience and protection, and even took the initiative to resign from all matters in the Heaven Dou Sect and retreat to the back mountains of the Heaven Dou Sect. To this day, Dongfang Shuo has never had any intersection with him.
In the past few months, he has been staying in the back mountain and has never been seen again. Du Qingxue said, "Do you know why he suddenly became like this?"
Dongfang Shuo immediately shook his head when he heard the question.
"I don't know. ”
He said.
From the moment Tie Mu found out that the formation was out of control and wanted to dismantle the formation with his bare hands regardless of his own safety, Dongfang Shuo didn't hate him anymore.
Although everything started because of his jealousy and small belly, he also gave himself self-discipline.
Therefore, there is no need for Dongfang Shuo to bring up the old things again and kill them all.
"I don't know?" Du Qingxue nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "So, he suddenly had an epiphany, and he knew that he had been doing wrong things all along, so he would give himself such a punishment of isolation, right?"
"I guess so. ”
Dongfang Shuo echoed.
And Du Qingxue looked at Dongfang Shuo, and naturally saw through his little Jiujiu. Knowing that he must know the inside story.
However, instead of debunking, she said, "Let's find a time to see him." Even to see how miserable he is now. Your juniors and disciples all know that you and Temu once had a holiday, if you can be lenient, I believe that the disciples of the Heaven Dou Sect will be self-defeating against you, they just hope that you are still the first day talent in their minds, and nothing else. ”
"I don't care if my brothers and sisters continue to respect me. But on the Temu side, I'll go in a moment. Dongfang Shuo said.
Du Qingxue nodded: "Go down and take the Dan furnace away." ”
After Dongfang Shuo answered, he put away the Dan furnace and left the Jade Void Hall.
And after Dongfang Shuo left far away, Du Qingxue breathed a long sigh of relief.
"If I had asked one more question just now, even if I had asked one more question, maybe I wouldn't have been able to hide this matter. She looked outside the Jade Void Palace, in the direction of Dongfang Shuo's departure, and muttered to herself.
What she said was naturally the question Dongfang Shuo asked just now.
What is the relationship between Du Qingxue and Du Qingxi?
In fact, her answer is not so perfect, and it can't even stand scrutiny.
She said that she was as discerning as a torch and used Su Zhi as evidence.
But Dongfang Shuo didn't notice that he was only eight years old when he was discovered by Du Qingxue.
And Su Zhi is fifteen years old this year.
At the age of fifteen, most of those who have cultivated higher can see whether they are talented or not, and they don't need any discernment.
And if it is really as discerning as a torch, why is it Dongfang Shuo, not Dongfang Youling?
The teacher selection ceremony half a year ago has proved that Dongfang Youling's talent is also extremely high.
If Du Qingxue was really 'as wise as a torch', she should have brought it back with Dongfang Youling.
But she didn't.
That's the biggest doubt.
It's just that Dongfang Shuo's heart was very chaotic, and he only felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think about it clearly.
So if Dongfang Shuo asks one more question, even if he asks one more question.
I can't hide it.
Du Qingxue walked outside the hall and looked at the blue sky.
"Twenty years ago, it was the same weather. "But let your father or someone related to you tell you about it." Anyone but me can tell you about that. ...... Except for me......"
At this point, her expression seemed to be a little lonely.
