|||->-> "Zhao Yu, what do you think again?"

was woken up by a sudden question, and Zhao Yu quickly pulled his mind back to himself. He tried to straighten his body and took turns looking at his two friends.

"It's okay!

"Oh, is it okay?" Liang Chaowei seemed to be a little disbelieving, and he also looked at Zhao Yu with an extremely serious gaze.

Zhao Yu shook his head slightly, "It's really fine!"

"Oh! It's fine. But, Zhao Yu, you used to be like this, you always get distracted!" Liang Chaowei seemed to be sighing.

Zha Hongliang was also busy agreeing, he seemed to think that it was good to make a joke at the moment, "He is like this." If it weren't for the appearance of being preoccupied, it wouldn't be Zhao Yu himself!"

When Zhao Yu heard this kind of remarks, he could only smile bitterly a few times, "Oh!

"That's it!" Zha Hongliang immediately showed a hearty smile.

Zhao Yu was still so embarrassed, half of his face twitched, "In this way, I haven't changed anything! I'm still the same me, and nothing has changed because I have been away from Vortex Town for a long time." ”

Zhao Yu was confiding his inner thoughts wholeheartedly, but his two friends didn't seem to understand. They couldn't help but look at each other for a moment, and their eyes blinked dryly.

"Zhao Yu, what are you talking about?Actually, I think ah......" Zha Hongliang quickly pursed his lips, his eyes were desperately rolling, "You have really changed a lot, I almost can't recognize you." ”

"Huh, I don't recognize it?" Zhao Yu tilted his neck.

"Yes!" Zha Hongliang's gaze was moving, and he seemed to have a feeling of uncertainty. But in the end, his gaze stayed on Zhao Yu's left side.

Zhao Yu noticed this, and also looked to his left. Soon, he understood something. The specific target that Zha Hongliang was looking at was the magic staff he held in his hand.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu reflexively moved the staff back, but at the moment when the action was made, he felt that it was pointless to think like this. As a result, he calmly returned to his normal posture.

"This staff...... Zhao Yu's gaze towards the staff seemed to be in a state of loss of mind, "It was given to me by a powerful master." ”

Following what Zhao Yu said, Liang Chaowei also looked at the staff. His eyes seemed to emit infinite crystalline light, and his shrunken neck moved from side to side from time to time, "Wow...... Ahh

"Yes...... Is it?" Zhao Yu twitched his lower right arm slightly, which affected his right shoulder in turn, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

"Remember that its original owner was...... Is it ......" Zha Hongliang continued to move closer to Zhao Yu's direction, but his gaze did not leave the staff at all, "What is it called? It seems to be a very powerful figure in our country! Seem...... Ah...... Look at my memory! I can't remember, what's his name? Anyway, he infiltrated somewhere in the Sauron Empire, and was hunted to death. But I really can't imagine that Zhao Yu will actually encounter this kind of thing by you. ”

Zhao Yu's current mind was a little helpless, and he also raised his staff slightly, "Yes! ”

Zhao Yu had actually been thinking about a question all along, if he hadn't met any Yang Jiening at that time, let alone gotten any magic staff and documents. Then the series of things after that will not happen. Maybe his mother is still there, and he's always been a civilian in Vortex Town.

It can be said that the moment he picked up the staff and sealed important documents, Zhao Yu's whole life changed.

It seemed to enter an infinite reverie again, until he was awakened by a friend's question, "Hey, Zhao Yu, what are you thinking?"

Zhao Yu hurriedly walked out of his imagination again, and the staff that had just been raised slightly was slowly lowered a little bit. Realizing that the base of the staff had reached the ground, he relaxed his right arm completely.

"Ahh

"But Zhao Yu, you are so powerful now, you have become a powerful magician, and your position has become a general. You're going to have a chance now!" Zha Hongliang said coldly.

This made Zhao Yu a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly grabbed his head, "Ahh......h No...... I just ......"

"How does it feel to be a magician?" Liang Chaowei suddenly asked.

Zhao Yu licked his lips quickly, and could only respond honestly, "Actually...... Actually, there is no difference. But I never wanted to be a great magician, never...... Never thought about it. With the excited words, his head slowly lowered to the bottom.

The atmosphere seemed to be a little silent, Zha Hongliang and Liang Chaowei did not happen immediately, but looked at each other inexplicably. But after staring at each other for some time, they decided not to be silent anymore.

"Zhao Yu!" the corners of Zha Hongliang's mouth twitched slightly, "Don't get me wrong, we don't mean to blame you for anything." We know how much you have suffered in these days. ”

"Yes, yes," Liang Chaowei's body pressed forward quickly, and his chest touched the edge of the table. His hands were still pressed down, to show not to get excited, "We didn't want to talk about you, we were worried! ”

"That's right. Not only the two of us and Coach Li Yuan, but even the students in the entire trial ground are silently praying for you. And, of course, the neighbors near your home. We're really worried about you, and we hope you're okay. ”

Listening to the words of his friends, Zhao Yu's head was slightly raised, "Oh! yes......? Thank you so much. ”

"Well, don't thank you! This is what we should do!" After Zha Hongliang finished speaking, he didn't forget to glance at Liang Chaowei, who was sitting opposite, "Is that right?

"Of course! We're not going to blame you for anything. Besides, listening to the female marshal just now, your situation at that time was also very critical, and obviously there was no time to say goodbye to us!"

"Yes, yes, so Zhao Yu, we won't complain about you, we are very relieved that you are standing here now. ”

For a while, Zhao Yu was completely moved. He couldn't have imagined that his friend would be so tolerant and say such heartwarming words. His left hand gradually moved towards the middle of him, and as he touched the muscles on the surface of his thigh, he grabbed the bulging pants again.

"Just ......"

But within a few seconds, Zha Hongliang's voice sounded again. Zhao Yu could hear that his voice was not as gentle as before.

"Zhao Yu! I remember that time...... You once said you came across a corpse and got some staff, right?"

After Cha Hongliang asked, Zhao Yu did recall it. After receiving Yang Jiening's things, Zhao Yu was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he deliberately lied and said that he had just encountered a corpse.

"Ahh......h

"Zhao Yu, you were lying to us at that time, right?"

Zhao Yu's heart chuckled, he knew that his friend was indeed complaining about something at the moment, but he didn't show it obviously, "This ...... This ......"

"Oh! Ahh......h They don't want us to get involved. ”

"I understand that I'm not accusing him of anything right now. But ah...... I always feel ......" Zha Hongliang seemed to be a little anxious, and his sitting posture was erratic, he was sitting upright for a while, and then he tried to lean sideways, "If you ...... If he doesn't hide anything from us, I just think...... Can many things not happen again?"

"Ah ......"

"If he ...... Tell me honestly what happened to me in the forest and what I got it. Then, I think the town will definitely send someone to protect him! Even, the things will be taken down by the town officials, and even if the Saurons do come, they will go to the officials. It is almost impossible for anything to happen to Zhao Yu's family, and his mother is also ......" Speaking of this, Zha Hongliang suddenly fell silent. His eyes were staring downward, as if he wanted to say something but had something unspeakable.

"......Ahh I'm not trying to hide anything from you, it's just ...... At that time, it was the person who handed over the items to me, that is, Yang Jiening, who made me swear not to tell them. So I can only ...... Can only ......"

"I can understand this, and you have the right to hide it from us. But I still think that if you had confessed everything to the people in the town, or at least told me and Liang, it would have been like two more heads and you would have had problems......! To the point of uncontrollable. ”

"Ah, it's been so long since you've said it. Besides, Zhao Yu is back now, what else do you have to say?"

"I said, I'm not complaining about anything, I'm just expressing some opinions!" Zha Hongliang was obviously starting to get a little excited, and he quickly switched to his sitting position, and suddenly made it into a style of crossed legs, "I don't think Zhao Yu should have completely trusted us at that time, at least tell us about it." Then, it's up to the three of us to discuss whether we should tell anyone else. And he hid it from us. ”

"Ah, don't mention this matter again, no matter what you say, it's been a few months since the incident!" Liang Chaowei's face had already fallen, and he kept shaking his head to the 'object' he was talking about as a warning.

"Ah Liang, what's wrong with you? You won't let me speak? However, what you said just now is quite right, huh!" Zha Hongliang became more and more excited, "It's been so long. Zhao Yuhe ...... He's been missing for months, and since his farewell outside the proving grounds, he's all but gone, and we're no longer to see him. And then...... And then...... Ah...... I'm so worried, I know what that means? Ah, I'm not talking nonsense, is it......? At that time, the students in our trial ground, but they didn't sleep for days and nights, and went out of town to look for him. The result...... Still haven't found it. I really got ...... Thought it was ......"

Suddenly, Zha Hongliang bit his lip, and his head fell suddenly, "I really thought I would never see him again, thinking that I Zha Hongliang would lose this friend since then." But...... But isn't there an old saying? Oh! That's right, 'I don't see people alive or dead', right? I just thought about this sentence, so I never gave up! I always firmly believed that the reason why Zhao Yu disappeared must have been because of something, so that he could not come back. So, I reported it to the town officials, but they ignored it. ”

"Well, I know, I was the one who accompanied you at the time, even though we tried our best to persuade the officials. But they have been grinding things out like tai chi. Liang Chaowei's eyes were a little out of focus, revealing an infinite sense of helplessness.

I will always remember the helplessness I felt at that time. But despite suffering a lot of grievances, I still don't want to give up, because what supports me to do those actions is the power to save my friends. Zha Hongliang began to touch his chest continuously, and there were many muffled crashing sounds one after another, "And then? And then? Today, you suddenly came back, or that kind of ...... I came back proudly as if I had accomplished something. Originally, I was very happy for you, but ...... But ......"

Zha Hongliang seemed to be a little uncontrollable, and after he took a sharp breath, he slapped the table hard.

There was a loud 'pop' sound, which not only caused Zhao Yu to straighten his body, but also affected all the people around him. In the utter silence, the guests in the tavern all stared at them.

"It's been so long, how did you know you were coming back? Didn't you think about the people in the town who were worried about you these days? Why don't you send a letter of peace and tell me about your current situation! I won't have to worry about it for so long!" Zha Hongliang was swaying wildly, which was enough to show that he was emotional.

Liang Chaowei was the first to react, and after he consciously glanced around, he reached out and touched the back of Zha Hongliang's hand, "Hey, hey, you're crazy! Why are you yelling and slapping the table, the other guests will be dissatisfied!"

Because the environment is too quiet, Liang Chaowei reminds him in a slight tone that does not shake the Adam's apple.

Zha Hongliang could understand what he was trying to say. So, after he let out a breath, he lowered his head completely.

didn't make much movement, so the guests from the other tables around naturally didn't come to continue to pay attention. They all went over the corner and started their own little circle chat.

The atmosphere in the tavern was back to its normal appearance, that is, the silence mixed with the sound of chatter.

"Ahh

"Zhao Yu ......"

"At that time...... It can be said that it is the lowest point in my life. My mother was killed by the Saurons, and I ...... But nothing can be done. I can't avenge her, and I can't even ...... Can't even do anything. Zhao Yu's expression was sad, and he always looked down at his legs, "Then ...... And then there was the female marshal. She promised to take me away and go to Qingcheng to learn some skills so that she could avenge her mother. So, at that time, I was taken away in a daze. ”

Zha Hongliang and Liang Chaowei have been listening, and they have no intention of interjecting during this period. It's just that their expressions are just as sad, which is very different from the joy they had thought of for their reunion.

And then I wandered around. Originally, I thought I could get to Qingcheng soon, but ...... The journey is full of conditions. We had many, many troubles, and we even lost our lives. So...... Naturally, I forgot to tell you about peace. ”

When Zhao Yu's words fell, the other two showed a sudden look. Perhaps they thought that Zhao Yu had long forgotten his two friends from Vortex Town after entering Zhiqing City.

"Ahh But I have already forgotten about you, and all my thoughts at that time were to come to Qingcheng alive, and then learn many powerful magic skills through this, so that I can avenge my mother. Another point is that I only arrived in Qingcheng more than a week ago. But when I entered the city, I encountered a great obstacle, and I myself was fatally hit. After I wake up, I will be sent to the border to fight. Really, there's so much to wait!"

After listening to Zhao Yu's words, the two continued to be silent.

"Ahh I'm so sorry to say sorry, but I want to emphasize one thing, no matter what, you are all my best friends, and I will never forget that!"

Finally, Zhao Yu still raised his head, and his eyes immediately connected to the friends on both sides of the diagonal side.

"Zhao Yu ......"

"Zhao Yu, you ......"

"You will always be my friends, forever...... Forever...... ...... forever" Zhao Yu seemed to be about to burst into tears, and there was indeed a little crystal light in his eyes. It's just that his current expression is smiling, as if revealing a warm and warm feeling.
