Xiao Jing was invited by the master to Yao Cuiju, where he lived, Yao Cuiju is in the west of the National Academy, a little far away from the place where the students study, it is full of ink bamboo, and ink bamboo is also Xiao Jing's favorite variety, so she took a few more looks, and the master was standing here in white clothes It gave people a feeling of unfathomable fairy wind and bones.

"Miss Xiao also likes this bamboo?" The old master asked, stroking his long gray beard.

"Naturally, black bamboo is a rare bamboo species. It is named because the stalks and branches are black; The tip of the shoot has a reddish-brown shell and is ready after a year. It is the best material for making flutes and wind instruments. Master, but good Yaxing. ”

"You're very knowledgeable?" The master still laughed, it was rare to have such a smart student, modest and studious but not arrogant, humorous, and could not see the arrogance and virtue of the children of the nobles, he was a rare talent.

"If you want to say that you are knowledgeable, you still belong to the master." Xiao Jing bowed slightly.

"You should be very busy now, the old lady sent someone to the National Court a few days ago to say that you won't come, why are you here again today?"

"Students are not busy, where is the end of learning, students have a lot to learn, and the master has a lot to teach." Xiao Jing replied to the old master with a quiet smile. The old lady nodded: "To live to be old, you have to learn from old age." Would you like to play a game of chess with your husband? “

Xiao Jing nodded slightly. Not far away is a chessboard, which is full of black and white, judging from the chess style, this is played by the same person, could it be that the master also likes to play chess with himself?

The carriage drove slowly on the official road back to the town of Guogong's Mansion, Xiao Jing was thinking about the game of chess he had just played with his master all the way, the old master was indeed an unfathomable person, full of talent but willing to guard the small national courtyard, there must be something strange, Xiao Jing was also a little interested in playing chess but lost to the master...

After losing, Xiao Jing didn't feel much surprised, but smiled slightly and said, "Playing chess is like leading soldiers to fight, no matter how much a student studies the chess game, it is just a piece of paper, how can he have the ability to compete with the master?" Speaking of which, the master bullied the students. ”

The Master laughed, "I have never seen such a well-spoken student as you. ”

Before leaving, the master said a sentence: "Your life is like a phoenix reborn in blood, you will definitely be a person who will do great things in the future, no matter how hard you work in the first half of your life, it will be worth it, don't live in the past, look to the future!" A person's life is just the word cause and effect, and the hardships of this life may be for the debts of the previous life or for the blessings of the next life, you have to remember. He faced the house, as if reminding Xiao Jing, and like talking to himself, but Xiao Jing couldn't forget for a long time, the master is a master, and every word he says naturally has his truth, what does the phoenix in his mouth refer to? What is cause and effect? Is it karma or something that I lost my parents and my life?

The summer in Xixia City is either rainy or hot, but it makes Xiao Jing miss the air conditioning of the 21st century, tossing and turning but can't sleep, so she has no choice but to get up and go to the backyard to enjoy the cool and admire the moon.

"Hey, you're actually ...... here" Pei'er who ran across the street loudly interrupted the two of them in the flowers, it's really annoying, and finally found their young lady in the backyard but encountered this kind of thing, I heard the old ladies say that they would be unlucky when they encountered this kind of thing, do they want to make the young lady unlucky? But it's so hateful...

"Pei'er ......" got up from the garden, and the disheveled Qing'er was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, and the third watch would be found in the middle of the night.

"You...... You are so bold, this is Miss's flower garden. ”

"I ...... I didn't mean to, so you can spare me this time. Qing'er was so nervous that she didn't know what to do.

"She spares you. I'm not going to spare you. Xiao Jing is dressed in moon-white clothes, and she is as dusty as a fairy, but in Qing'er's opinion, she is like a devil now.

"Little ...... Miss ......"

"Come with me." The young lady took the lead to leave with an indifferent face, and Pei'er snorted coldly, "Let's go, do you want the eldest lady to invite the guards and grandmother to invite you?" ”
