Chapter 12: The Ten-Year Covenant
The two came to the bank of the river on the north side of the village, and walked along the path of the river towards the upper reaches of the river. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Yi Mu held his little belly and followed the girl quickly, without saying anything or asking anything.
The water of the river is very clear, the pebbles at the bottom of the river are clearly visible, and there are some green and tall trees on both sides of the river. The path also became less noticeable and covered with weeds, and apparently, not many people came here.
Not far away is a tall valley with mountains on either side that stretch and stretch tall. It is like an insurmountable barrier that surrounds and protects the people living on this land.
After walking for nearly a quarter of an hour or two, Yi Mu and the girl heard a 'rumbling' sound in the distance, and Yi Mu knew that it was the sound of the water rushing, indicating that there should be a waterfall in front of them. Thinking of this, Yi Mu couldn't help but speed up his pace. After turning a bend and pushing away the layers of low leaves, a beautiful scene unfolded in front of the two of them.
A torrent rushes down from a small mountain stream hundreds of meters high, hitting the bare and steep mountain, splashing white waves, layer after layer, forming multiple vertical waterfalls. Finally, the hammer strikes at the bottom to create a beautiful lake that is not too small or too small. What surprised Yi Mu even more was that on the waterfall at the lower level, a foggy object of five colors appeared, which was not changing shape, and it was very charming.
"Why five colors?" Yi Mu couldn't help but muttered to himself.
The girl pouted and said, "What is this, I have seen all the thirteen-colored clouds." β
"Thirteen Colors!?" Yi Mu was even more surprised. Then he asked, "What is a cloud?" β
The girl stared at Yi Mu with the eyes of a fool and said, "Isn't that what you have in front of you?" β
"I'm asking how it came to be?" Yi Mu asked.
"I don't know about this, I heard that it has something to do with the elements of heaven and earth, but it is said that the colorful clouds are an omen of heavenly luck, it seems that my luck is good, little wood, you are stained with Miss Ben's light."
Yi Mu still wanted to ask questions, but thinking that the girl didn't necessarily know, and knowing that there might not be any great benefits, he dispelled the idea of satisfying his curiosity and asked, "How did you know about this place?" β
"It's not because of you, an incompetent tour guide, but I asked other people, and I found out that there is such a place, so I came to try it, but I didn't expect to be found." The girl said with a smile, looking triumphant.
Yi Mu touched the back of his head in embarrassment, and couldn't help but turn around, pretending to look at the scenery. Suddenly, Yi Mu noticed that there was a forest not far from his side, an old tree that was blooming.
"You wait here for me, I'll get you something good." Yi Mu said to the girl.
The girl watched Yi Mu enter the woods, closed her eyes, sensed the elements around her, and began to sit cross-legged on the ground.
But soon she was woken up by Yi Mu, "Don't fall asleep here. Yi Mu cared.
"Don't worry about it!" The girl replied angrily. The girl was a little annoyed by Yi Mu's behavior (it is generally not appropriate to disturb the cultivation), because just now she seemed to sense a dense aura, and the originally stagnant cultivation began to show signs of a breakthrough, but now she couldn't sense anything. After a few attempts, she simply gave up and stood up.
Yi Mu didn't know what he had done wrong, but he quickly apologized.
The girl shook her head and said, "I'm a little impatient, it's none of your business." But the doubts in his heart did not decrease, "Could it be that the induction was wrong just now?" β
"By the way, you come and see what I made." Yi Mu beckoned the girl and said.
Under the old tree, Yi Mu pointed to a light log with two ends suspended by thick vines and said, "This is it." β
"You just got such a thing?" The girl said.
"Have you seen it?" Yi Mu wondered.
"Are you going to hang yourself, why don't you make it a little higher, it's still so ugly." Obviously, the girl has not completely deflated.
Yi Mu smiled and said, "It's not what you think, I'll show you." After saying that, he ran to the big tree, grabbed two vines, and ran. Jumped and swung himself up.
"Woohoo," Yi Mu shouted, "do you want to try it?" β
After a while, the girl was attracted by the novelty and sat down on the green log.
"Hold on." Yi Mu said.
"Slow down, slow down." The girl said hurriedly.
The starting point of the swing is very high, and the girl can naturally go up easily. But when she went up, it wasn't so easy, Yi Mu pulled the wood to the highest place he could reach, and then, threw it out hard!
The height of the swing almost reached the position of the trunk of the tree, placing the girl on the vertical ground. "Ahh The girl exclaimed loudly, Yi Mu was not like this just now. "Bastard, asshole. Yes. Yi Mu didn't stop, but tried to keep pushing hard.
"Bastard, you're dead, you're dead." The girl screamed. I saw her leap down from a very high place, and staggered to the ground. Angrily rushed to Yi Mu.
"Wait, wait, listen to me." Yi Mu hurriedly said.
The girl stopped.
"Isn't it fun?" Yi Mu continued.
The girl hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Isn't it exciting?" Yi Mu strikes while the iron is hot.
The girl nodded.
Yi Mu sighed in his heart and said, "Then why are you angry? β
The girl smiled like a devil after a moment's thought, and said, "It's fun, it's exciting, isn't it?" β
"Why don't we change it?"
The birds scattered, and the valley echoed with the screams of Yi Mu.

The yellow flowers of the tree are dotted with green leaves, and from time to time a gust of wind blows down one yellow flower after another. Occasionally, you can see the leaves that can't help but blow and fall to the ground leisurely and quickly.
Under the tree, Yi Mu sat on the ground, leaning against the trunk of the old tree, boredly chewing a grass root. From time to time, he looked at the girl who was cultivating with his eyes closed. The girl is very quiet, and her breath and breath are very regular. The girl is very beautiful, with a cherry nose and a cherry mouth, and her skin is fair and ruddy. But the girl is very good, with the identity of a spiritual teacher and a noble background. The girl was so close to Yi Mu, but he felt that the girl was also as far away from him.
After about half an hour, the girl opened her eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"You're done cultivating?" Yi Mu asked.
The girl nodded.
"Wouldn't it be boring for you to cultivate for such a long time every day?" Yi Mu asked again.
The girl shook her head.
"Do you think I'm going to be a spirit master?" Yi Mu pointed to himself and said.
"It is not easy to become a spirit master, first of all, it is a matter of talent, good soul perception and elemental affinity are the basis for becoming a spirit master. This kind of person is often less than one in a thousand, and those who have the qualifications to become a spiritual master are also divided into three, six, nine, and so on. There is also a gap in talent between different spirit masters. And acquired resources will also be a great constraint. The girl did not answer Yi Mu's words directly, but explained to Yi Mu the conditions that she had to become a spirit master.
"You mean I can't?" Yi Mu asked.
"If you work hard, maybe you can become a martial artist." The girl said. She looked up at the sky and said to Yi Mu, "I'm leaving, it's nice to meet you, unqualified tour guide." β
"Wait," Yi Mu hurriedly said, "If I can become a businessman who is rich and rival the country, I can have a group of obedient martial artists and even spirit masters." β
The girl was slightly surprised by Yi Mu's thoughts, and replied, "What you have is only worldly wealth, this world still speaks with fists and strength, and this difficulty is no less than becoming a spirit master. β
Yi Mu didn't know what to say, and saw the girl turn around. Yi Mu asked the biggest question in his heart: "Will we meet again?" Where do I find Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· if I can? β
"No, it won't." The girl said directly.
"Why?" Yi Mu asked.
"It's a long road. I'm leaving," the girl said.
"Wait, don't go, can you finish a story with me?" There was pleading in Yi Mu's voice.
"Say it." The girl turned. A wisp of mountain wind blew the girl's green silk, and also blew the determination in the young man's heart.
Yi Mu said slowly, "'Let's meet,' Mu said to Allah.
'Aren't we meeting?' Allah answered
No, no, I'm talking about today, three years from now, here, in the center of the three cobblestone pillars. Wood replied
'Why?' Allah asked
'Why not?' Wood said
'I didn't say no,' Allah replied
That's yes. Wood departed happily.
Allah looked at the departing wood and said to himself: 'I didn't say yes either.' β
Three years later on the same day.
Wood arrived at the agreed place early. He bought a bouquet of flowers, flowers that symbolize love.
He waited for a long, long time, and the shadow changed from long to short, from short to long, and then to disappear.
Finally he waited for a middle-aged woman who resembled Allah. With a letter in her hand, she walked over to the wood.
The middle-aged woman was the mother of Allah, and she gave the letter to the wood.
The letter reads: 'I'm sorry I didn't come as promisedβAllah, who has always liked you. β
'What's wrong with her?' Wood asked
'Dead, a week ago. The middle-aged woman replied.
'How did you die?' Wood asked.
'Hit by a carriage and killed. The middle-aged woman replied.
Wood walked down the stairs in despair, throwing away the flower that had lost its vitality, the flower that had brought him infinite motivation and hope. He lost another ring, the one he had used to propose today. It was too late, and he never told her.
He liked her.
End of story. β
Yi Mu paused and said, "My story is terrible, I just want to tell you that I want to see you again, ten years from now, wherever I am." I owe you two lives, and I don't want to just keep owing it. β
The girl was silent for a while, then looked up and said, "I still have four requirements, when you become a businessman in the rich world, when you become the strongest martial artist in the sandbank, or when you become a gifted spirit master, here, I will come." But if you don't succeed in any of them, get out of here. With that, the girl threw a golden object into Yi Mu's hand. After that, like a light butterfly, it leaps away, and disappears around the corner in a short time.
"I don't know your name yet?" Yi Mu shouted with all his might.
The girl stumbled again and replied, "Asu." He completely left Yi Mu's field of vision.
"Asu, do you hear the true meaning of this story? Why didn't I say it, like a wood. Didn't you think about it a long time ago, God gave you the opportunity to live a new life, why don't you dare to do it? Why? Yi Mu looked up at the sky and said to himself, "Maybe it's not ready like wood." Maybe it's something else. Who knows. β
Yi Mu looked at the thing in his hand that looked like an ear of rice, and said to himself, "Do you want to keep it as a souvenir?" β
When Asur returned to town, the team was ready to go.
A black-clothed martial artist turned over and dismounted, knelt down on one knee, clenched his right hand into a fist and leaned on his chest and said, "Miss, the ancestor is waiting for you in the car." β
"Got it." The girl nodded.
A quarter of an hour later, the group headed out of town for their destination.
