Chapter Ninety-One: Parting

Wu Jin paced aimlessly in the wasteland of Laojun Temple, last night it rained in Weiyang County, making the ground a little muddy, and the jagged grass stalks hung with the wetness after the rain, and after a while, his shoes were wet, Wu Jin took a deep breath of the grass fragrance emanating from the grass stalks, and tried his best to get his mind out of the troubles of the past two days.

He wanted to find something to do, or to get out for a walk.

Although he is a lazy person in the eyes of many people, the eldest brother complains that he is neither willing to study nor willing to do things for Su Hanzhen; Grandfather lamented that he would not serve the family; The fifth uncle felt that he was too lazy and had to sleep until dawn every day; Even the pawnshop guy despised him for being idle and idle all day, and in the eyes of everyone, he was a lazy man.

But in fact, his dedication is actually more important than anyone else.

It's just that what has puzzled him all the time is, what is his career in this world? Make hay? He feels that he is already very rich, owns more than 30 acres of land in a prime location, and is an official? He doesn't like officialdom, maybe he can go to the army as an officer, and it won't be a problem to be admitted to the samurai with his martial arts, but he still doesn't like it.

But it really made him so lazy and inactive, and he felt a little uncomfortable being idle, although he was rich now, but this feeling of getting rich overnight made his heart empty, Wu Jin sighed a little, man! You should always have a little career, so that you can forget about some of your troubles.

Thinking of the troubles, his mind unconsciously drifted through the shadows of the nine heavens.

The crystal looked like a diamond from a distance, but it was not a diamond, and some things were not what he saw with his eyes! ’

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Wu Jin's mouth, he understood the meaning of this sentence, but what could he do? She's about to return to Beijing.

.......

Wu Jin returned to the room and locked the door, no matter how Huang Fugui knocked on the door outside, he didn't pay attention, he didn't eat dinner, and the lights were completely non-stop, which frightened everyone, lest he couldn't think about it for a while, and looked for a short time, everyone was about to bang on the door and go in, but they heard footsteps walking around his room, which made people suspicious, and suddenly there was a vicious roar from the room: "You go away, don't bother me!" ”

Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to provoke him anymore, until the next day, Huang Fugui got up and was about to open the store, when he passed by the door of Wujin, he suddenly found that his door was hidden, and there was a light in the door, Huangfu Gui tiptoed to push the door open, probe in, he was stunned, there was a choking smell in the room, but Wujin was gone.

.......

At dawn, a carriage drove through the academy street, stopped in front of the burrow, Yan Yushu walked down from the carriage, he took out a handful of copper coins from the bag, and was about to count them to the coachman, but a person came out next to him, startling him, and when he turned around, he saw that his eyes were red and his face was tired.

"Wu Jin!"

Yan Yushu was extremely surprised, "What are you doing at the door of my bookstore?" ”

Wu Jin scratched the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I'm waiting for Uncle Yan!" ”

"Wait for me?"

Yan Yushu glanced at him suspiciously, and when he saw that he looked embarrassed, he couldn't help laughing, "I know, you're here to find Jiutian, today is the time for you to make an appointment to have a meeting to tell the story, right?" But what! If you want to return to Beijing in nine days, it is estimated that you will not be able to do it. ”

"I also heard that Jiutian is going back to Beijing, so I have something I want to ask Uncle Yan to transfer to her for me."

Wu Jin took out a thick envelope from his arms and was about to hand it to Yan Yushu, Yan Yushu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You stupid boy, you will leave this morning in nine days, maybe it's still too late, you hurry up and go to the harbor wharf!" ”

He opened the car door and was about to push Wu Jin up, but Wu Jin looked embarrassed and begged Yan Yushu to say, "Uncle Yan, can you go for me, my store is still in a hurry, really!" My fifth uncle was seriously ill, and I came out to ask him for a doctor. ”

Yan Yushu glanced at him suspiciously, "Okay! I'll just run for you, and if you can't catch it, I can't help it. ”

"Thank you Uncle Yan!"

Wu Jin hurriedly pushed Yan Yushu into the carriage, "Wait a minute!" Yan Yushu suddenly remembered something, he took out a letter from his bag, handed it to Wu Jin with a smile, "This is a letter left for you yesterday nine days, originally said that you were going to gather today to write a book, but she was going back, and she didn't have time to say goodbye to you, so she left a letter for you, I really don't know what the two of you are doing, you want me to come to transit." ”

"Uncle Yan, let's go!"

Wu Jin took the letter and pushed him into the carriage. He took out a piece of broken silver and gave it to the coachman, "Don't look for it, hurry to the dock as soon as possible!" ”

"Okay, don't worry, Childe!"

The coachman shook his spirits, and with a whip of his whip, the carriage rushed to the dock, looking at the carriage walking away, Wu Jin sighed, he leaned against the door of the bookstore, and opened the letter.

"Wujin, when you received the letter, I may have left Donghai County to return to Beijing, my grandfather is seriously ill, I have to go back to visit him, but the regret in my heart is that I couldn't see you yesterday, and I explained some things to you in person, so I had to leave a letter on paper....."

Wu Jin's heart seemed to be burning violently, he had no intention of reading the letter, he stopped another carriage, jumped on it and ordered urgently: "Go to the dock!" ”

........

In front of the harbor wharf of Weiyang County, there are dense ships of all sizes, thousands of masts like forests, hundreds of ocean-going ships are parked on the sea in the distance, and small boats on the sea are weaving back and forth, transporting groups of seafarers ashore.

There was a medium-sized sailboat parked at the passenger terminal, on the pier, Jiutian and Su Yi both changed into a long-distance travel uniform, a thick cloth skirt, a wide eaves soft mortar hung with gauze on their heads, and a silk bag containing their belongings in their hands, Su Yi also wanted to go back, his grandfather was seriously ill, and all his children and grandchildren had to go back to visit, it stands to reason that Su Hanzhen also wanted to go back, but he was busy with affairs, so he entrusted his wife to take care of his father for him.

"Yi'er, Jiutian, it's time to get on the boat!" Sue's mother was urging them.

Jiutian was a little uneasy, she looked at the shore from time to time, she didn't know what she was waiting for, she could see that her mood was not too good, and there was always a faint regret in her eyes.

"Sister Han, let's get on the boat! Mother is urging us. ”

Sue pulled for nine days, she knew who her cousin was waiting for, last night she slept with herself, tossed and turned, and didn't fall asleep until midnight, hey! It's not good when people grow up, it's not happy at all.

"Sister, he can't see your letter, he is a pig, and he can't get up until noon!"

A hint of gloom flashed in Jiutian's eyes, and he nodded lightly, "Let's go!" ”

They walked towards the plank of the boat, and after walking a few steps, Jiutian suddenly heard something, she turned back sharply, only to see a carriage rushing towards her, and someone was shouting to her, "Jiutian, wait a minute! ”

"It's uncle!"

Jiutian hurriedly greeted her, the carriage stopped in front of her, Yan Yushu got down from the carriage, and said with a smile: "I finally caught up with you!" If you let you run, that kid will have to smash my shop. ”

"What?" Nine days in a daze, who is my uncle talking about, is it him?

Yan Yushu lowered a thick envelope to her, "This is for you by that muddy boy, take a look for yourself!" I don't know what? ”

Jiutian took the envelope a little dazed, her heart was in a mess, like countless threads wrapped around her heart, there were countless clues, she didn't know which one she should solve? There seemed to be a thick stack of manuscript paper in the envelope, and she took out one casually, only to see a line of large characters written on it, and below it was dense small characters.

Su Yi stretched out his head, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Ah! It's the story of Zhu Bajie, I like it the most! ”

Jiutian was a little stunned, these small characters were written very sloppily, and some of them were not even completely dry, and the words were full of haste, these were all written by him last night, and he had not slept all night, Jiutian seemed to see Wu Jin staying up late with the lights on, and wrote the synopsis of these stories one by one, as if he saw Wu Jin pacing back and forth, thinking with all his might.....

She bit her lip slightly, her eyes couldn't help but turn a little red, and a layer of wet mist unconsciously enveloped her beautiful eyes.

Su Yi took out another one from the envelope and exclaimed in surprise, "Sister! It's Tang Seng who collects Wukong! ”

She felt that her cousin had no voice, so she asked her strangely, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing!"

The gauze curtain blocked Jiutian's face, and she couldn't see her expression clearly, only hearing her whisper, "We really have to go!" ”

She saluted Yan Yushu again, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

"What is there to thank you for!"

Yan Yushu waved his hand and smiled: "I also gave him your letter, that kid is embarrassed, his hair is messier than a chicken nest, and his eyes are redder than a rabbit, I guess I'm embarrassed to come to see you." ”

Jiutian nodded silently, she knew what her uncle said, she could imagine what he looked like, "Uncle, then I'll go, you have time to come to the capital!" ”

"I'll go, I'm going to move next year, nine days, you take care all the way!"

Jiutian carefully put the manuscript written by Wu Jin into his handbag, and got on the boat with Su Yi, shouting with the boatman: "The boat is gone!" ”

The hull of the ship shook, the sails were pulled up, and the ship began to slowly leave the dock, Jiutian stood at the stern of the ship and stared into the distance of the pier, there was a faint sadness in his heart, it was the sadness of parting, the wind blew her long skirt, and the light veil in front of her fluttered in the wind.

At this time, she saw a huge blood-headed man soaring into the air on the sacred tree in the distance, hovering in the air, as if someone had alarmed it, Jiutian seemed to see a person on the top of the tree, and he couldn't see clearly, maybe it was a branch, "Hey!" She sighed lowly, her heart was full of loss, he still didn't come, the wind blew her veil, she only felt that the wind was a little dazzling, the corners of her eyes were sour, and a teardrop unconsciously flowed down her face, and it was like the most beautiful and moving Han in the world condensed into the dew before the first bloom.....

Wu Jin sat on the thick branches, and the ship was far away, looking at the beautiful girl in the white dress standing at the stern, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he remembered her letter in his mind.

'I hope that when people mention Tokai-gun, I will remember that there is a friend of mine there, and I hope that we can see each other again.....

"Nine days, we will definitely have a goodbye, I wish you a safe journey!" Wu Jin murmured.
