I'm going to take you away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In just five words, it was like a blazing fire, igniting the old and damp black powder in the depths of my heart.

He noticed the trembling of her body, thinking that it was a reaction of surprise, and said to himself: "We fled to Starfall together, and lived the most ordinary and simple life in the town, I have saved a lot of money over the years, we can buy a small grocery store together, and never ask about the sect again." You can also live in seclusion in the mountains and forests from now on, we build a bamboo house together, I have chosen the location, there is a mountain spring at the back, the sound of the water is dingdong, you must like it. ”

Akali's body stiffened, her thoughts like rising tides, frantically recalling the spring when the cherry blossoms were fluttering, and finally she just smiled bitterly.

"You...... What's wrong? ”

"You look serious, but you really look like him."

Shen Zhanyan's smile froze halfway, and he looked at Akali steadily, the palm of his hand gripping her wrist suddenly increased in force.

"I told you not to mention him again."

"He's your junior brother."

"It's been a long time since then, and now he's just an escape."

"So you're going to give up the Twilight Eye position so easily? You're really worthy of this—"

"Enough! I said, that's not the life I wanted. You have to come with me. The warmth of her wrist now made her feel a pang of pain, and Shen's cheeks trembled, anger in his eyes, but Akali felt his gaze feel like pleading.

Indeed, Shin once thought that Twilight Eye was a great honor, and the ninjas in the Equilibrium Sect also thought so, and he also used this as his goal to hone his ninjutsu and fighting skills......

But he happened to see the ancient book about the Twilight Eye in the library, and the glory was about to befall him as if it were a fate from which he could not escape.

The so-called agent of the way of heaven, the eye of twilight.

He would not allow everything to be given up for such a ridiculous reason.

"I'm not going to be some bullshit Twilight Eye, the agent of the Heavenly Dao, if there is no surrogate, the Heavenly Dao will not be able to walk in the world, so what is the meaning of this ridiculous Heavenly Dao?"

"Okay, I'll go with you."

She lowered her head and smiled reluctantly.

Pure white fallen flowers flutter in the wind.

……

Every season when the white flowers are falling, the Great Elder can't help but think back to that snowy night.

Ionia is an island with a mild amount of snow, snow is a rarity, although there is a folk saying that the snow is a good year, but according to the doctrine of the sages of the Equilibrium sect, snow is the embodiment of the yin qi of time at its peak, not an auspicious omen, and the snow night is even more unlucky.

As a great elder, in addition to these prejudiced statements, he had also heard the prophecies handed down by the sect -

The child of the snowy night, the balance of the calamity.

This prophecy is engraved on the oldest stone tablet in the forbidden land behind the mountain behind the sect, so the elders of the past generations have issued a clear order not to recruit any ninja disciples born in the snowy night, and there is also a high-sounding reason, saying that the ninja is a warrior who walks in the shadows, and the children of the snowy night, for the life of the most yin, are very vulnerable to the inspiration and erosion of the shadows.

The Great Elder had never given such an order, because he did not believe in such a statement, and did not believe that the time of birth and the weather could dictate a person's fate. Moreover, the words of the sages cannot be trusted and applied to the affairs of today.

But the sect continued to operate slowly and unchangeably in accordance with this tradition.

Everything is according to tradition, anyway, it is the words of the ancient sages, even if something goes wrong, you will never blame yourself, and then you will be considered to be in accordance with the rules, and there is nothing wrong with it. As for the correctness and error of what the sages said thousands of years ago, it is natural that those ordinary people can't help but argue.

But on that snowy night, he heard the cry of a baby outside the door.

There was a small swaddling baby on the stone steps outside the door, and the baby was crying in the swaddling clothes, and although it was tightly wrapped like a cocooned silkworm, the biting cold still pierced his tender little face red.

Such a posture is not unusual, in Ionia, poor families will send their children who cannot afford to raise them outside the monastery or large families in the hope of being kindly adopted at the moment of desperation and poverty.

The Great Elder looked around, but he didn't see the person who had brought the child, and there was a layer of soft fresh snow on the ground outside the house, and there were no footprints.

Either the person who sent the child has been gone for a long time, or, somewhat absurdly, maybe the child jumped out of the stone steps in front of the door.

The Great Elder bent down to pick up the infant child, and the child's sparkling eyes looked at him, and he actually stopped crying and burst into laughter.

He did not have any tokens on him, nor did he have any name tag with the child's name on it.

"This kid ...... Can't stay. A soft woman's voice came from behind him, and a young woman in a traditional robe had somehow walked out of the inner chamber and came behind him.

Although it was time to rest, she still wore her black hair in a bun on top of her head, which seemed to be specially made to come out to check, casual and simple, but with a unique home beauty.

"You mean?"

"You know."

"Ah, you mean the Snowy Night Baby."

"Exactly."

"You know I can't die without help."

"It would be a catastrophe."

"Destiny is not something that can be avoided by prophecy."

"But you have a choice now."

The Great Elder was silent for a moment, the baby in his arms had fallen into a quiet sleep, the warm light of the paper lantern reflected on his immature little face, completely unaware that his life and death were only hanging on his heartstrings.

"Actually, I don't have a choice. I can't hide it, I can't leave him in the snow and wait for death. Even if this child is really the catastrophe of the Equilibrium Sect, it is not a good thing, the principle of Equilibrium, after the catastrophe, it will be reborn, the Equilibrium Sect has been silent for too long, managing the equilibrium of everything, but forgetting that it also has the inevitable equilibrium and reincarnation. This child was named Robbery. ”

The Great Elder's eyes were complicated, holding the infant sleeping peacefully and looking at the snowy sky outside the door.

"I will let him grow up with our child Shen, he will become my inner disciple, I will do everything possible to guide him to the right path, if it is really as prophesied, I hope that my efforts can turn this catastrophe into a balanced change." He looked at the sky, and his thoughts seemed to drift to a higher place.

"You'll understand me. Chiyo? Finally, he asked softly.

The young woman let out a soft "um" and hugged him from behind. "You don't know about this kind of thing, do you?"
