Chapter 202: The Drag of Collecting People
Mr. He looked at Qing Mu who was far away and said: This Qing Mu is well-behaved, and his qualifications are very unusual.
Now he is afraid that his future achievements will be above Qi'er, thinking that there are two such outstanding disciples now, and before he knows it, his face is full of smiles, and even he doesn't know it.
As soon as Qing Mu walked back to her room, she met Xiao Rui who came to look for her, and she said with a smile: "Miss Xiao Rui still wants to trouble you, tell me some things about Shengyue Xuan, as well as some taboos in our sect!" ”
Xiao Rui nodded slightly and said, "Miss Qingmu, I don't know how old you are?" Xiao Rui has just turned 28 this year. ”
"Hmmm! Looks like I'm going to call you sister, I'm two years older than you! Qing Mu said with a smile.
"Sister Qingmu! I have been with Lord Xuan since I was a child, and he raised me like a loving father. Xiao Rui has been an orphan since he was a child, he has never met his parents, and he doesn't know why they are so cruel to abandon their own flesh and blood! ”
Xiao Rui said with some loss.
Qing Mu walked up to her and held her hand and comforted: "Xiao Rui, don't think about that anymore, now that my sister is here, I will definitely see you as my own sister!" ”
Xiao Rui burst into tears and smiled: "Hmm! Sister Qingmu, since I was a child, I have wanted to have a big sister who loves me, and now that I really have it, how happy do you say I am! Back then, only the eldest brother took care of me......"
Qing Mu listened to Xiao Rui's words, suddenly felt confused, and held Xiao Rui's hand and couldn't help but ask tightly: "Big brother? Who is it? Why didn't I see him! ”
Xiao Rui felt speechless, and when Mu Qi was leaving, he deliberately confessed not to tell Qing Mu about his identity, but now he blurted out inadvertently, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "It's nothing!" Sister Qingmu, why don't you let Xiao Rui take you around! ”
Qing Mu looked at Xiao Rui, who had been avoiding, and felt quite strange in her heart, she seemed to have mentioned a person in her conversation with the master just now, and she boldly guessed in her heart that that person might be Mu Qi, but everyone had been hiding it from them and not telling her the truth.
The two of them were about to go out, but the heavens didn't seem to appreciate it, and the rain poured down. I couldn't go out at all for a while, and the thoughts in Qing Mu's heart fell into deep contemplation with the noisy sound of rain.
"Sister Qingmu, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to be red! Xiao Rui deliberately diverted the topic.
"Xiao Rui, Hong Luo grew up with me, and she and I are like sisters! At the moment, they are rushing to the capital, I don't know if they will encounter this heavy rain, if so, I am really sorry for her! Qing Mu said with some concern.
"Oops! Sister, don't worry! With such a high level of martial arts as the prince, he will definitely be able to shine on the good red Luo! Xiao Rui said comfortingly.
Qing Mu didn't say anything more, thinking about so many things in the past few days, looking at Xiao Rui sitting beside him, he didn't speak for a long time, the sound of the wind and rain outside the window was unusually noisy and accompanied by a storm, and the heroes of the world who came here couldn't leave.
Mr. Crane arranged for Mu to gather with the heroes in the West Wing today, and drank him in the dark.
Qing Mu didn't like this kind of atmosphere, and forcibly pulled Xiao Rui to accompany him, but he didn't let him go to Qing and everyone, Mr. He also knew that Qing Mu didn't like this kind of occasion, and it was really difficult for a girl to be with a group of big men.
Therefore, Qing Mu forcibly left Xiao Rui behind, and he didn't say anything.
The torrential rain outside the window continued, Mu Mu had already arrived, Xiao Rui instructed the kitchen to prepare some famous dishes in the capital, and when they were ready, the two of them were in the east wing where Qing Mu stayed, and they had dinner.
After that, he was suddenly so far away from home, and Hong Luo was not around, and a wave of longing arose.
Looking at the heavy rain outside the window, the thoughts in my heart seemed to have drifted to Mu Qi's side in the distance, thinking that he and himself were about to be separated, even if they were extremely reluctant, but there was no way at the moment.
If he can't practice martial arts well, not only will he not be able to protect himself, but he will be dragged down, and he will become a burden to him, how can he join forces with him to deal with Mu Lianyuan, who is as ruthless as a jackal.
The next morning, after a heavy rainstorm, the air of the entire Wanxiu Peak was fresh and the sky was blue. Yesterday, the heroes of Mu Jianghu not only congratulated Mr. He on accepting a satisfactory disciple, but also resigned to him one after another.
Therefore, early in the morning, Qing Mu was woken up by Xiao Rui and followed Mr. Crane to see off the heroes of the world.
This is the first time Qing Mu has followed Mr. Crane down the mountain, and for this competition, he may have been too hurried to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Qixia Mountain.
However, now it seems that Qixia Mountain is beautiful, heaven and earth are created, and sometimes I have to sigh how powerful the power of nature is, which can create such a fairyland on earth.
The heroes from all walks of life said goodbye to Mr. Crane one after another, and in the end, only the four princes of the rivers and lakes remained, Yue Fengxue looked at Qing Mu beside Mr. Crane and seemed to hesitate.
After a while, he walked over and said with a smile: "Miss Qingmu, congratulations!" You are lucky to be able to worship Mr. Tsuru as a teacher! I hope you don't live up to the expectations of others and practice martial arts seriously! ”
The confusion in Qing Mu's heart was written on his face, he pondered for a while, and still said with a smile on his face: "Thank you Brother Yue for your mercy, otherwise how could I be the opponent of the eldest brother with my little fist embroidery?" ”
Yue Fengxue listened to her words, turned around and glanced at the other three, with a smile on her face and laughed at the sky. Tang Haifeng walked over with a smile and said, "Miss Qingmu, you're welcome!" We are also entrusted by people, loyal to people! ”
Girls don't have to worry about it, as long as you don't let down someone else's heart!
"Brother Yue, Brother Tang, who are you talking about?" Qing Mu asked with a questioning face.
Suddenly, Mr. Crane glanced at the four of them, gave them a look, and then said lightly: "It's not too early, the four sons should go on the road early, otherwise they will miss the time to stay!" ”
"Yes, yes! Mr. He, Miss Qingmu, then don't do it, as for this other person, I believe it won't be long before you will know! Yue Fengxue said with a smile on her face.
Qing Mu looked at the four people who had turned around and left, and wanted to ask them about the questions in his heart, but they were already miles away in the time they had slipped.
Mr. Crane looked at Qing Mu who was still in his thoughts, and it was a light cough that woke her up. Qing Mu looked at the master in confusion and shouted, "Master! You see they haven't finished speaking, why did they let them go? ”
Mr. Crane smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "Qingmu, let's go back!" A girl chased after four big men and asked this and that! After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards Wan Xiufeng.
Qing Mu was stunned for a moment, followed by the master with an oh sound, and returned along the way he came.
It's just that the doubts in her heart have not been resolved, in fact, through all kinds of strange behaviors of Mu Qi in the past few days, and the performance of Mr. Crane and the four princes, she can already determine that the person who is helping behind her is Mu Qi.
It's just that she wants to confirm it through the mouth of others, but at the moment, the relationship between Mu Qi and Mr. Crane is by no means simple, maybe his martial arts are from Mr. Crane's disciples. It's just that I don't have the courage to ask Mr. Tsuru for these things yet.
The days in the mountains are hard, and the life of meditation is boring. In the next few days, Qing Mu will have to face it alone.
In the past few days, Qing Mu and Xiao Rui went up the mountain to chop firewood together early in the morning, and generally went to the maple forest in the back mountain about a few miles away on Wanxiu Peak.
Xiao Rui suddenly has a sister of the same age, who has been revolving around Qing Mu in recent days, pestering her every day. Qingmu is also happy to do this, and having someone chattering next to her also relieves her mood and makes her feel happy and warm.
It's just that during this period, Mr. Crane seems to ignore her, and he hasn't assessed her cultivation of basic skills, and he only sees each other every day during meal time, and he just excites each other a few words, it seems that Mr. Crane is busy with something else.
Xiao Rui sees all this in his eyes, often communicates his thoughts with Qing Mu, and sometimes the two talk heart-to-heart, and it hasn't been long before the two of them have nothing to say, nothing to talk about.
Qing Mu learned from Xiao Rui that in fact, although Shengyue Xuan was called the first major sect of martial arts by the people of the rivers and lakes, the people were not prosperous.
There are only dozens of people in the entire Shengyue Xuan General Altar, and there are many people in the other branch altars, but there is usually only communication between the main altar and the main altar, and there is no personnel contact, so the entire Wanxiu Peak is extremely quiet.
Recently, Qing Mu has been living in the previous east wing, Xiao Rui got the notice of the Xuan master, and deliberately took Qing Mu to a secluded and exquisite wooden house, and a courtyard was built with bamboo around it.
Qing Mu looked around, under the cliff next to it, the sea of clouds was vast, and it was built by the cliff here, but it had a special interest.
Xiao Rui pointed with his finger, and then continued to walk forward with Qing Mu, and walked a few steps into the courtyard, which is also a corridor, but it is clear at a glance here, there are only three small cabins in the entire courtyard.
Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Sister Qingmu, you will live here in the future, Lord Xuan instructed me to take my sister to practice the basic skills of Shengyue Xuan in the next three months, and after March, Lord Xuan will assess my sister in order to start teaching you this martial arts!" ”
Qing Mu heard Xiao Rui's words and smiled: "Then I will trouble Xiao Rui's sister, I only know you and Master in the Holy Moon Xuan, and the others are not familiar with it now, everything is up to my sister to decide!" ”
"Well, that's fine!" Xiao Rui replied, she thought about it again after she finished speaking, and then said: "Sister, in fact, Lord Xuan doesn't care much about the people in the sect, except for Xiao Rui's strict discipline, others can't see Lord Xuan a few times a year. ”
Only, now that my sister is here, so Lord Xuan often appears in front of everyone. In the past, when only Xiao Rui was there, Lord Xuan often went out to travel, and once he went out, he might not come back for several months.
So the entire Shengyue Xuan, in the past two years, I have let a little girl take care of all the affairs!
Qing Mu smiled softly and said, "Miss Xiao Rui is a little adult, and she manages such a big Shengyue Xuan in an orderly manner!" ”
Xiao Rui snorted and said, "Sister, you want to be beautiful!" Now that you're here, we're going to share it together! ”
"Oh." Qing Mu replied, turned around and looked at the cabins carefully, and asked with some confusion and surprise: "Xiao Rui, these cabins look ordinary but they are not simple!" ”
"Sister! Good eyesight! These woods are all made from the century-old teak of Qixia Mountain! These wooden houses were the ...... of the big brother back then," Xiao Rui hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand as soon as he said this, and then remained silent.
Qing Mu suddenly stopped listening to Xiao Rui's words, carefully considered her words again, looked at her in surprise and asked, "What big brother?" Is there anyone else living in the Holy Moon Pavilion? ”
Xiao Rui shook his head and said reluctantly: "Sister, don't blame me for not telling you, it's just that Lord Xuan ordered that you should not tell it." Naturally, someone will explain it to you when the time comes. ”
We are already sisters, so Xiao Rui will talk more, there used to be a big brother living here, but he has been down the mountain for a long time and is not on the mountain.
Qing Mu knew that Xiao Rui was embarrassed, so he stopped asking her, and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you take me to see Shengyue Xuan Xiao Rui." I've been here for a long time, and I haven't looked at our Wan Xiufeng seriously. ”
Xiao Rui nodded vigorously as relieved, and replied, "Okay!" Good! Good! As he spoke, he took Qing Mu's hand and was about to go out.
Looking at Xiao Rui who was so anxious, she knew that she was embarrassed and wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, but Qing Mu had already confirmed in her heart that this person was Mu Qi.
From the respectful look he gave to Mr. Crane and the loving gaze of Xiao Rui's brother, she had already faintly sensed that Mu Qi must have a great relationship with this Holy Moon Xuan.
It's just that one day these things will be confirmed with Mu Qi personally, so why bother this sister at this moment. Qing Mu followed Xiao Rui out of the courtyard after a while, and Qing Mu asked with some confusion: "Xiao Rui, is there a name here?" ”
"Name?" Xiao Rui repeated Qing Mu's question, lowered his head and pondered for a moment and replied: "That's not true, but when the eldest brother lived in the past, he didn't care about any name at all, and the usual name was me, you, and you!" ”
Qing Mu nodded slowly, looked back at the small courtyard covered with a layer of light veil in the distance, thought about it for a while, and said, "Why don't we call her Yunyueju in the future!" ”
"Hmmm! Well! Good! Good! Rui replied with a smile.
Qing Mu smiled faintly and asked, "On top of Wanxiu Peak, except for Master, Xiao Rui, you and me, who are the others?" ”
Xiao Rui chuckled and said, "This sister, you are the right person, I'm afraid these Xuan masters are not very clear!" Shengyue Xuan is above Wanxiu Peak, in addition to Lord Xuan, Xiao Rui and his sister, there are eight people, namely Tong Yicai, Liu Wenxu, Wang Minghua, Wang Shibing, A Niu, Zhu Erniu, Liu Ma, and Wenyue.
Among them, Ah Niu and Liu Ma are in charge of the kitchen and daily chores, and Liu Wenxu and Wang Shibing are in charge of daily shopping. The remaining four people are usually in contact with various branches. Among them, Wenyue's martial arts are the best, and Liu Ma and Aniu really don't know any martial arts! ”
"I see, so where do they live?" Qing Mu nodded affirmatively, and then asked.
"Hmmm! My sister didn't live in the east wing at first, they all lived in the west wing. ”
"Actually, the room where my sister lived at the time was Xiao Rui's bedroom. It was Lord Xuan who ordered Xiao Rui to bring his sister to live here, and for other people, he rarely came here. Xiao Rui said again.
Qing Mu hummed, and the two continued to walk forward together. Xiao Rui thought for a while and said, "Sister, you don't have to be restrained on this Wanxiu Peak, Lord Xuan usually disciplines very loosely, and generally doesn't take the initiative to find someone." ”
"Got it!" Qing Mu replied, then pointed to a waterfall in front of him and asked, "What is this?" ”
"It's called Mochizuki Cliff because you can see the full moon when you look up at the moon and see many full moons through the waterfall, so it's so named!" Xiao Rui explained seriously.
"I can see so many moons, why is that?" Qing Mu asked with some confusion.
Xiao Rui replied with a smile: "Sister doesn't know, you see that this waterfall is blocked by several cliffs and rocks in the middle, and the water flows down this shape, sometimes inside, sometimes outside. ”
Standing below and looking up, it seemed that it had passed through several currents of water before it could see through the cliff, and then the moonlight shone through the water flow as thin as the wings of a cicada.
After countless refractions and penetrations, this is what our eyes see, so that we can see countless moons.
However, when I was a child, Lord Xuan often took Xiao Rui to this Moon Cliff to see the moon, and I used to count at that time, if it is not clear because of the shaking of the water waves, I can see a total of eight bright moons when I look up here.
Sometimes the size is different, and sometimes the color is different, so this is also a great wonder of our Wanxiu Peak! Lord Xuan once said that there is no one else today!
Qing Mu looked at Xiao Rui in surprise and was speechless for a long time, Xiao Rui said with a smile: "Sister, don't be surprised, next time the moon is full, Xiao Rui will take you to see her wonders!" ”
"Hmmm! I can't imagine that there are such strange things in the world, my sister is really lonely! Qing Mu shook his head again and again.
"My sister doesn't have to think so, when I was a child, I didn't understand and kept pestering Lord Xuan, so he told me carefully! I've been writing it down since then, so now I can tell my sister! ”
Xiao Rui's laughter was light, accompanied by the sound of rustling water in the distance, but it was extremely beautiful.
Qing Mu glanced at Xiao Rui and asked, "Then my sister must have a good relationship with Lord Xuan, right?" ”
"Of course! Xiao Rui has no father and mother since I was a child, and I was raised by Lord Xuan, so Xiao Rui has long regarded Lord Xuan as his own relatives in his heart, just like his biological father! Xiao Rui said lightly.
Qing Mu noticed the change in Xiao Rui's expression, which seemed to remind her of her sad past, so she changed the topic and asked, "The terrain on the west side is so strange, what is it?" ”
Xiao Rui looked up and smiled indifferently, took her hand and ran forward. Qing Mu was a little puzzled, but he still obediently followed Xiao Rui forward.
Xiao Rui seemed to deliberately try Qing Mu's pace, running faster and faster, and in a moment, the trees on both sides "whirred" back sharply and quickly at a very fast speed, Qing Mu already felt a little depressed.
But in front of him was a little girl younger than himself with her, at least she couldn't be embarrassed in front of this sister, she used her last strength to keep up with her pace, and she didn't feel pulled down at all.
