Chapter 10: Parting
The bright moon is in the sky, like a layer of soft white veil shrouding the Valley of Forgotten Worries, mysterious and elegant...... s
Under the moonlight, Murong Jiu sat alone under the banyan tree, and the whole person was lazily lying on the stone table.
Time really flies, in a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and Xiao Rui's injury has healed. I'm about to leave the Valley of Forgotten Sorrows tomorrow, and I'm really reluctant to live in this place where I've lived for ten years, and Master
"Alas" Murong Jiu's heart fluttered, and he sighed unconsciously.
"Can't sleep"
A faint and slightly lazy voice sounded, and Murong Jiu hurriedly stood up and looked back. I saw that the old man of Tianji was dressed in fluttering clothes and carrying a pot of wine in his hand.
"Master, can't you sleep too" Murong Jiu restrained his feelings, not wanting the old man of Tianji to see his sadness. asked with a chuckle.
"Our master and apprentice haven't drunk for a long time, so accompany Master for a drink tonight." The old man came to the stone table and sat down, raised the wine jug and drank it, his demeanor was elegant and free. After a few sips, he put it down, smiled and handed it to Murong Jiu.
"Hehe, it's been a long time." Murong Jiu took the wine jug with a smile, raised his head and poured a few big mouthfuls of "grunt, grunt", his expression and demeanor were uninhibited, quite a bit of a heroine.
"Drink slowly, girls' families, it's easy to get drunk like this." The old man of Tianji was slightly angry, but he said with a full of doting. Stretched out his hand and snatched the wine jug from Murong Jiu's hand, regretting a little that he shouldn't have given this girl a drink. It's just that he didn't expect Murong Jiu to drink so much alcohol that he dared to drink like this. But if she wants to come back, she must feel very uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, his heart was astringent, he got up and gently hugged Murong Jiu into his arms, and gently patted Murong Jiu's back with one hand.
"Jiu'er, when you grow up, you have to make trouble by yourself and see the world, so that this life is in vain. Besides, alas" The old man Tianji's eyes darkened, and he sighed and continued: "Will you blame the teacher's selfishness, and you can't reunite with your family?"
"How so, I already knew about it." Murong Jiu felt the warmth from the old man of Tianji, and looked up at him, his tone was frank and sincere.
How could she blame Master, the key to this lies in her, if she wants to go back to that home, with Master's love for her, she will definitely take her back.
Not wanting to let the old man of Tianji blame himself, nor wanting to immerse himself in this sad feeling, Murong Jiu immediately changed the topic.
"Master, do you remember the code I designed, I'm gone, and I don't know when I'll be back. You must leave me a code wherever you go, so that if I happen to pass by one day, I will be able to see it and know what Master has done. Also, you're going to see me often. Actually, it's better for you old man not to run around, you're so old, and so that I can find you when I come back. ”
"Haha girl, you're in charge of being a teacher." Knowing that this was to reassure himself, the old man Tianji smiled comfortingly.
"Hehe" Murong Jiu also laughed out loud. There is no need for too many words, just because of years of tacit understanding. This strong family affection makes their hearts tightly tied together, so what does it matter where they go
Xiao Rui stood in front of the attic window, looking at the two masters and apprentices who were drinking under the moon before parting, and the warm and harmonious atmosphere seemed to be intolerant of others. I really want to know what they are talking about, if they are happy, is the parting like this?
With his skills, he could easily hear their conversation, but he didn't. It belongs to them, and he cannot destroy it.
looked at the face that was only in front of her master, wantonly blooming with all kinds of expressions. When I think of her facing herself, although her expression changes, it is always faint. I wonder when she can be so wanton in front of herself
"Jiu'er, after arriving in Tianyao Kyoto, if you don't have to deal with Xiao Rui, don't come and go." The old man of Tianji replied with an indifferent face.
"What's the matter, Master, this is a disciple crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey" understood what the old man Tianji meant, after half a month of getting along, Murong Jiu felt more and more that the person was not simple. Just heard the old man Tianji say this, he couldn't help but tease.
"You girl, hehe." The old man shook his head, smiled helplessly, and did not respond.
It's good that she knows it in her heart, and with her temperament, she must not suffer. The old man of Tianji sighed secretly in his heart, his apprentice is smart and wise, everything is good, but his heart is too soft. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but remind again: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, and people's hearts are unpredictable. You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't do without the heart of prevention. Don't put yourself in danger because of your soft-heartedness. ”
"Master is so worried, or together" Murong Jiu said with an indecent look and a sinister smile. It would be nice if Master left with her.
"It's beautiful to think about, you said that the master has an old bone, and you still want to drag it to run around for the teacher." The old man of Tianji spoke with disgust, but there was deep doting in his eyes.
"How can I say that Master is an old bone, obviously he is still very young." Murong Jiu said with a mouth. knew that the master would not be with her, but she was still disappointed in her heart.
"By the way, the potion I developed for hair dyeing, you can try it, dye your hair and eyebrows black, and you will be a beautiful boy in an instant. Go out and find me a teacher to come back and take care of you, I'm so relieved. Murong Jiu's eyes flashed and he said with a smile.
"What nonsense, Master doesn't need it." The old man of Tianji was slightly embarrassed and said angrily. This girl is really big, she dares to say anything.
"I'm leaving tomorrow, and Master doesn't know when I'll see you again, so let's play a song for Master." Seeing that Murong Jiu still wanted to say something, the old man of Tianji hurriedly spoke.
When Murong Jiu heard this, a faint sadness rose in his heart.
"Okay, what does Master want to hear" Murong Jiu pulled out a smile, no matter how he looked at it, he was a little stiff.
"If you can still make a song, then laugh proudly." The old man of Tianji saw the sadness in her eyes, and knew that she was sad about tomorrow's parting. I ordered her favorite song to play and sing.
"yes, okay." A flash of clarity crossed Murong Jiu's eyes, and he said with a smile. Pick up the guitar that you have placed next to you, pluck the strings, and hum along to the tune
"Life is a play
Why care too much about grievances and grievances
Fame and fortune
What is it
Life does not bring death, and death does not take away
The world is unpredictable, and the joys and sorrows of the world are unpredictable
There is no chance to reunite in this life and the next
Love and hate
What a thing
The boat goes to the bridgehead and travels naturally
And wave your sleeves
Don't look back
It's time to drink and have fun
That daughter is good
Happiness is hard to find
I walked all the roads in style
I smirked
Smirked again
Laugh at the fact that Hongchen people are not old
Seek a lifetime of happiness
Treat wine as a song while you are in the future"
The melody is melodious, with pride and chic. Murong Jiu's soft and sweet voice made people can't help but be stuck and deeply immersed in the artistic conception she created.
After the song "Haha", the master and apprentice looked at each other and laughed
Xiao Rui, who was originally trapped in his own thoughts in the attic, looked back at the person who played the piano when he heard the sound of the piano. But after hearing the meaning of her piano and singing, I was shocked. But it doesn't seem to surprise people, as if she should be like this, proud, casual and indifferent and elegant. The bottom of the eyes can't help but overflow with admiration and envy Yes, envy. What he was carrying made him unable to "laugh at the red dust, treat wine as a song, and enjoy his life".
In the past half a month, he occasionally heard Murong Jiu play some tunes that he had never heard, which made him marvel at the depth of her music skills, and she was able to arrange music by herself. And tonight's music, her singing, made him unable to extricate himself.
The old man of Tianji and the master and apprentice of Murong Jiu chatted until late at night, and then went back to sleep together under the urging of the old man of Tianji. In the past few days, because of Xiao Rui's relationship, Murong Jiu pulled a simple hammock in the old man's room of Tianji, although it was not comfortable, but it was much better than the rattan chair. Moreover, it is much more appropriate to sleep in the old man's room than to share a room with a strange man. Xu drank wine, and the two talked, and let go of the depression in their hearts, but they had no dreams all night and slept until dawn.
