Chapter 57: Jealousy

Because Qi Tai performed the Dao method on the Jingyue Hall to the same door, and carved out a ravine with a depth of one foot on the ground of the main hall, the current Jingyue Hall was a mess everywhere, the bricks and stones were shattered, the dust was scattered, and the entire main hall of Chiyue Peak looked chaotic.

Then, the matter of tidying up this Jingyue Hall will naturally fall on the three useless disciples of Dazhi, Xiaowu and Lin Xiaoyi.

The three of them worked for most of the day, from early morning to noon, to finally clean the broken bricks of the place, and then fill the huge ravine with the dust that had been spread everywhere.

Dazhi stood barefoot on the ground paved with dirt just now, and while stepping on the mud ground vigorously, he complained: "Alas, tired people are tired, it is all a good thing that Qi Tai did, let the three of us do such drudgery!" ā€

Xiao Wu swept the floor with a broom, and when he heard Xiao Wu's complaints, he looked around, lowered his voice and persuaded him: "You just don't say a word, it's not good for others to hear this!" ā€

When Dazhi heard this, he was angry, and said angrily: "Whoever does a good deed, whoever cleans it up by himself, why do we always do it by the three of us!" ā€

Seeing Dazhi's angry appearance, Xiao Wu shook his head, sighed, and said, "Forget it, who told the three of us to practice too badly, if we don't do it, who else on Chiyue Peak will do it?" ā€

Halfway through the words, Xiao Wu glanced at Lin Xiaoyi who was on the side, and saw that Xiao Yi was putting the broken bricks and stones he had just cleaned up into the bamboo basket piece by piece, and Xiao Wu said casually: "Xiao Yi, you said yes, right?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi seemed to be stunned for a moment, but did not raise his head, but just muttered softly in his mouth, which was regarded as answering Xiao Wu's question.

Xiao Wu continued: "Qi Tai is now a celebrity in front of the master, everyone looks at him differently, how can you say that the master would let him do this kind of thing?" ā€

Xiao Wu's words were speechless for a while, and he knew that he couldn't argue with it, he endured the anger in his stomach, looked at his soiled hands and feet, and then, as if the dirt under his feet had offended him, he stepped on it a few times.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Yi looked at him and knew that Dazhi was in a bad mood today, so they stopped provoking him.

After a while, Dazhi had stepped on the mud that was still uneven a lot, he walked out of the mud, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said to Lin Xiaoyi, who was still working on the side: "Xiaoyi, help me move those bricks at the door in, I can lay them on this." ā€

Lin Xiaoyi sighed, put down the work in his hand, and walked towards the gate of Jingyue Hall, as soon as he stepped out of the hall, he saw a figure standing on the edge of the pool in front of the hall, this person happened to have his back to Lin Xiaoyi, only to see that the person was dressed in light green clothes, and his long hair was scattered around her waist.

That person is Senior Sister Su Qiyu!

Lin Xiaoyi felt a burst of joy in her heart, and was about to open her mouth to call her, but before she opened her mouth, she saw another person standing in front of her, and the next moment, Lin Xiaoyi's heart seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and the whole person suddenly cooled down, and it was cold to the bottom of her heart!

It turned out that next to Senior Sister Su Qiyu, there was a handsome and chic man in white clothes, who was Yang Yue from Ziyun Peak?

Suddenly, an inexplicable pain surged into Lin Xiaoyi's heart, who was originally overjoyed to see Senior Sister Su Qiyu, but in a blink of an eye, he didn't dare to go up to greet her again.

Lin Xiaoyi endured the pain in his heart, pretended not to see anything, then turned his head, leaned down, and put the green bricks stacked in front of Jingyue Hall into the empty basket, ready to carry them in and let Senior Brother Dazhi spread them on the ground.

Although Lin Xiaoyi was picking up those green bricks, the corner of his eye was still paying attention to Senior Sister Su Qiyu's side, but he didn't dare to look at it squarely, because he understood that if he looked over there more, the more pain in his heart would increase!

At this time, Su Qiyu also saw Lin Xiaoyi over there, pulled Yang Yue beside him, and said, "Come, you come with me, I'll introduce you!" ā€

Yang Yue followed Su Yu and walked along the edge of the pool to the open space in front of Jingyue Hall.

"Xiao Yi!"

The familiar voice, which was almost engraved in the depths of his heart, sounded in Lin Xiaoyi's ears, with a few joys and pleasures in his voice, Lin Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, slowly stood up from the ground, and then, turned around, and saw Senior Sister Su Qiyu standing in front of him at a glance!

Her fair face was slightly pink, bright eyes, amorous eyes, looking at herself with a smile, Lin Xiaoyi couldn't help but be in a trance, as if, all of a sudden, she was back to the past, and she was standing in front of his eyes like this! At that time, not long after he came to Chi Yuefeng, Senior Sister Su Qiyu would come to play with him whenever she was free.

At that time, the weather was so blue, the sun was so warm, and the senior sister standing in front of him was also smiling and looking at herself!

It would be nice to be able to go back to that time!

But at this moment, the person standing beside her, the person who was very close to her, made Lin Xiaoyi suddenly realize that what he had in his mind just now was just his momentary fantasy, a nameless hatred burning in his deep heart, so strong, so difficult to contain, as if it could burst out of his body at any time!

However, after a while, he finally suppressed the hidden anger in his heart, making himself look less out of shape, and in the end, he just replied in a low voice: "Senior sister! ā€

Su Qiyu didn't notice anything unusual about Lin Xiaoyi, she still approached him with a smile and said, "Xiaoyi, what are you doing here?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi's face was expressionless, he glanced at the half basket of green bricks under his feet, and said in a low voice: "I'll clean up my things here." ā€

Su Qiyu sighed, smiled slightly, turned her head, and said to Yang Yue, who was standing behind her, "This is our youngest junior brother of Chi Yuefeng, called Lin Xiaoyi. ā€

A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Yue's mouth, and he arched his hand and said, "Senior Brother Lin, I am fortunate to meet, I am fortunate to meet!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi returned the salute and said lightly: "You're welcome!" ā€

Su Qiyu also introduced to Lin Xiaoyi: "This is Senior Brother Yang Yue of Ziyun Peak, who is about to meet the Five Peaks Sword Meeting, before the competition, he came to see me today." ā€

Lin Xiaoyi glanced at Yang Yue, and didn't know where the courage came from, so he chuckled and said, "It turns out that you are the genius who is called a genius by others that has not been met for hundreds of years, so with Senior Brother Yang's cultivation, it must be a big hit in this Wufeng Sword Meeting?" ā€

After hearing this, Yang Yue shook his head and said, "Where, where, Senior Brother Lin has won the award!" ā€

Su Qiyu also smiled at Yang Yue next to her: "Originally, with your cultivation realm, who else can compete with you, the final winner of this sword meeting must be you!" ā€

Yang Yue smiled and said to Su Qiyu: "Even you want to make fun of me?" After finishing speaking, his face began to become a little serious, and his tone became much more solemn, and he said slowly: "Over the years, there have been hundreds of new disciples in Wufeng Mountain, and each peak is vigorously cultivating young disciples, among which there are countless people with different talents, how can I be so blind to this little cultivation?" ā€

Su Qiyu looked at Yang Yue, her eyes showed infinite concern, and said softly: "No matter what, in my opinion, you will definitely win the final victory!" ā€

Yang Yue listened, shook his head, smiled silently, turned his head, glanced at Lin Xiaoyi who was standing in front, and asked casually unintentionally, "I don't know what level this Senior Brother Lin has cultivated now?" ā€

When Lin Xiaoyi heard this, his expression and face quickly darkened a lot, he lowered his head, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "A disciple like me who has no potential naturally can't be compared with your Senior Brother Yang!" ā€

Yang Yue was a little puzzled, frowned, and was about to speak, but when he saw Su Qiyu beside him glaring at him, he seemed to understand something, and then changed his words: "Senior Brother Lin, why be so humble, even if the cultivation qualifications are poor, it doesn't matter, as long as you persevere and practice hard, you will definitely achieve something after all!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi raised his head and looked at the dashing, handsome and personable young man in front of him.

At this moment, Yang Yue was also looking at him kindly, with a slight smile on his face.

Somehow?

Lin Xiaoyi suddenly felt that Yang Yue's smile was full of falsehood, revealing a kind of contempt for himself, as if he was mercilessly laughing at himself, and an irrepressible anger suddenly surged in his heart, and the angry sea in his body seemed to be rolling up huge waves, surging all of a sudden!

Lin Xiaoyi subconsciously clenched his fists, bit his lip stubbornly, and said with a wry smile: "No matter how hard I practice, I can't compare to your Senior Brother Yang!" ā€

At this time, even Su Qiyu, who was standing on the side, seemed to notice the abnormality of Lin Xiaoyi's expression, took a step closer, and asked with concern: "Xiaoyi, what's wrong with you?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi came back to his senses, still shook his head, and said, "Senior sister, no, it's nothing, I'm fine!" ā€

Su Qiyu turned her head to look at Yang Yue, and said with a smile: "Since your cultivation is so good, you have to give me a good guide in the future!" ā€

Yang Yue glanced at Lin Xiaoyi, nodded, smiled at Su Qiyu, and said, "Yu'er, don't worry, I will do my best!" ā€

Su Qiyu immediately turned her head to Lin Xiaoyi and said, "Xiaoyi, with Senior Brother Yang's advanced cultivation, under his guidance, your cultivation will definitely improve!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi heard Yang Yue affectionately call her Yu'er just now, his chest suddenly ached, the nameless pain was like an angry beast gnawing at his body and mind, making his whole body tremble, he took a breath of cool air, gradually calmed down the pain in his heart, and lowered his head, however, at the moment when he bowed his head, he saw the shiny droplet-shaped jade tied around Su Qiyu's waist, which was the "Immortal Tears Divine Needle" that Yang Yue gave her that day! ā€

She actually carried it with her day and night, it must have been something she loved very much, Lin Xiaoyi was sad again, and after a long time, he said astringently: "No, no need!" ā€

When Su Qiyu and Yang Yue heard this, their faces were a little ugly, they glanced at each other, and they both saw the trace of embarrassment in each other's eyes that could not be concealed, but they didn't know how to speak.

Lin Xiaoyi avoided his gaze, not daring to look at Su Qiyu's eyes, he turned his head, but said in his mouth: "I'm going to work, I'm sorry, I'm missing!" After speaking, he bent down, picked up the half basket of green bricks, and walked towards the Jingyue Hall step by step.

In fact, at this moment, Lin Xiaoyi felt uncomfortable, I don't know why, I would talk to Senior Sister Su Qiyu like this today, maybe it was because I saw her and Yang Yue's intimate appearance, and I felt sad, so I became so reckless and unreasonable!

In the open space in front of the hall, only Su Qiyu and Yang Yue were still standing there, watching Lin Xiaoyi take difficult steps with a bamboo basket on his back, walking towards the gate of the main hall, when he just arrived at the gate and was about to turn around, Su Qiyu suddenly moved, and was about to open her mouth to stop Lin Xiaoyi and comfort him a few words, but she still closed her lips and finally didn't shout.

Yang Yue also said to Su Qiyu with some doubts: "Yu'er, I think your little junior brother is a little weird!" ā€

Su Qiyu still stood there and stared blankly ahead, for a long time, before she said to herself: "He wasn't like this before, in fact, he is a very good person!" ā€

Looking at Lin Xiaoyi's dejected appearance, Su Qiyu's heart was also extremely uncomfortable, it may be the reason why he was not qualified to participate in the Wufeng Sword Club the day before yesterday, which made this little junior brother suffer a lot!

Over the years, she seems to have grown up with Lin Xiaoyi, deep down, she can't tell her attitude towards this little junior brother, sometimes she regards him as her best friend, talking about what is in her heart, and sometimes she cares about him like her own brother, she knows that over the years, this little junior brother's cultivation has not made much progress, and she also knows that he is stubborn and sensitive, she is afraid that she will say something wrong and hurt this little junior brother's heart!

Alas! didn't know how to persuade him, Su Qiyu looked at Lin Xiaoyi's back and sighed softly.

※※※

At night, it was the dead of night.

The cold moon hangs high in the sky, shining brightly on the flowers and trees in the mountains.

Tomorrow is the date for the disciples of Chi Yuefeng to go to Taiqing Peak to participate in the hundred-year-old Wufeng Sword Meeting, many disciples finished their dinner and rested early, and there was silence on Chi Yuefeng, only the sound of insects in this corner was still screaming tirelessly.

In an ordinary room, on the coffee table by the window, Lin Xiaoyi was still sitting there alone in a daze, with one hand supporting his cheeks, his eyes were dull, and he only looked at the boundless moonlight outside the window.

The faint candle flame in the room seemed to have burned to the end, and the candlelight flickered, and with a "sizzle" sound, it was finally extinguished, and a faint wisp of green smoke floated in the room.

Lin Xiaoyi didn't seem to notice, maybe he wasn't in the mood to pay attention to this, just sat there, looking at the night outside that was as illuminated as day.

The cold moonlight, like flowing water, quietly shines on everything on Chiyue Peak, and also shines on this lonely and lonely figure.

I don't know how long it took, but I only heard the door behind me "squeak" open, Lin Xiaoyi's body shook, as if he had woken up from his sleep, turned his head to look, and saw that it was Senior Brother Li Yu standing at the door!

Lin Xiaoyi stood up and said, "Senior Brother Li Yu, you're here!" ā€

"What's going on there alone?" Li Yu walked in, looked around, and said, "Why don't you light the lamp?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi hurriedly took advantage of the moonlight that penetrated the window, used a small wooden branch to pull out the wick in the lamp, and lit the candle with flint, the candlelight jumped a few times, and then lit up half-brightly and half-darkly in the room.

Lin Xiaoyi asked Senior Brother Li Yu to sit on the wooden chair at the table and said, "I can't sleep, so I just get up and sit down." ā€

Li Yu took a look at the furnishings in the house, it was still the same as when Lin Xiaoyi first came a few years ago, there was not much change, but this thin bedding still proved that there were disciples living here, Li Yu turned around and asked, "Xiaoyi, how long have you been here in Chiyue Peak?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi replied: "It's been almost six years!" ā€

"Oh, it's not too late!" Li Yu nodded, looked at the candle flame that was still jumping on the table, and said thoughtfully: "Time flies so fast, it's been six years in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yi, do you remember when you first came here?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi looked at the moonlight like frost and snow shining into the window in front of him, and said softly: "I remember." ā€

Li Yu smiled and said, "At that time, you were still a half-grown child, and now you are about to grow up!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi smiled slightly bitterly and didn't say anything more.

Li Yu saw it in his eyes, only sighed softly, and persuaded him: "This time you were not selected by the master to participate in the Five Peaks Sword Meeting, are you still blaming the master in your heart?" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Li Yu, how can I think so, it's because I don't practice well and I'm not qualified to participate, so it's no wonder that others." ā€

Li Yu nodded after hearing this, turned his gaze away, and cast his eyes into the vast night outside the window, his face revealed a faint helplessness, and after a while, he turned to Lin Xiaoyi and said: "Master actually has some concerns in his heart, I hope you can understand his old man, he also has hardships in his heart." ā€

Although Lin Xiaoyi couldn't fully understand Senior Brother Li Yu's words, he still nodded lightly.

Li Yu glanced at Lin Xiaoyi, his tone became a little lower, and said: "Cultivation is a very difficult thing, and it is inevitable to fail for a while, I hope you don't get discouraged and persevere, I think there will be some small success after all!" ā€

When Lin Xiaoyi heard this, he suddenly remembered that he had been distressed all these days because he couldn't break through the realm of this "imperial object", and he was a little disheartened, and he secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that no matter how hard I try, I still can't cross the bottleneck of this cultivation!" ā€

Li Yu didn't know about Lin Xiaoyi's cultivation, until this moment, Li Yu thought that Lin Xiaoyi had not been able to break through the first layer of the Hongyuan realm "Zhou Tian" until now, and couldn't help but sigh slightly, and there was a trace of helplessness between his eyebrows, so he persuaded Lin Xiaoyi and said: "Xiaoyi, some things are useless in a hurry, you have to take your time!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi raised his head and saw Senior Brother Li Yu's encouraging gaze, he was moved in his heart and said, "Yes, Senior Brother, I remember!" ā€

"That's good!" Li Yu stood up with a smile, patted Lin Xiaoyi's shoulder, and said, "It's not too early, you better rest early!" ā€

Lin Xiaoyi replied and said, "Yes, senior brother, then you go slowly." ā€

Li Yu nodded, Lin Xiaoyi sent him to the door, Li Yu seemed to remember something, turned around, and said: "Tomorrow we will go to Taiqing Peak, when the time comes, I will persuade Master, let you all go and see, it's good to see it, after all, this is a grand event that is only once in a hundred years in our Wufeng Mountain, and it would be a pity to miss it." ā€

Lin Xiaoyi was surprised and delighted, and asked, "Really?" That's great, thank you brother for making it happen! ā€

In fact, Lin Xiaoyi also wants to see it in his heart, although he is not qualified to participate in this competition, but it is also a very happy thing to be able to stand in the audience and cheer for his fellow brothers, in addition, what makes Lin Xiaoyi most reassuring is his senior sister Su Qiyu, when she comes to the stage to compete, will there be any danger? If I can't go, it's a pity, I can't see her here, and I'm always worried about her safety, and my heart will be even more uncomfortable!

Li Yu smiled and nodded, and walked straight out.

Lin Buyi stood at the door, watching his back disappear, and then turned around and went back to the room.

He closed the door, blew out the candles, took off his coat and went to bed, because he was excited for a while, but it was a little difficult to sleep, and his mind kept imagining the appearance of the magnificent and grand Wufeng Sword Meeting, until finally sleepiness hit, and he fell asleep in a daze.
