Chapter 17: Drifting Away

In this full and happy life, another five years have passed.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the early spring of February 183 AD, and Wang Xu was 13 years old this year. Of course, this is the calendar that Wang Xu pushed out by himself, and the solar calendar of later generations did not exist at this time. Even this 183 years was calculated by Wang Xu according to the schedule of events in the history books.

According to the saying of this era, it should be the early spring of February in the sixth year of light and the sixth year. However, Wang Xu and Xu Shu both privately remember the days according to the Common Era, otherwise the year name is often changing, and it is really troublesome to calculate.

After getting up early in the morning, Wang Xu was washing up, and he was also planning for the future.

Next year will be the Yellow Turban Uprising, when the world will be in chaos, although Yanzhou Shanyang County, where his family is located, is not the main area of the Yellow Turban, but he should also prepare early, otherwise there will be great trouble at that time.

When he walked to the martial arts academy with a heavy heart, he was so strange that he didn't see his master. In the past five years, every morning when I came here, I could always see Xuanwei Daoist standing quietly in the middle of the courtyard, and today is really strange.

Shaking his head in confusion, Wang Xu was about to go to the shelf next to him to take out his weapon and practice for a while.

As soon as he took a step, a maid trotted all the way over and shouted, "Young master! The master wants you to go to the hall! ”

"What's so urgent? I'm going to practice! ”

"No! The young master's master is also in the hall. ”

"Huh? What's wrong? Hearing that Daoist Xuanwei was also in the hall, Wang Xucai shook his head and walked towards the hall in confusion.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the Xuanwei Daoist with his back to him was actually carrying a burden, and Wang Xu also understood what was going on in an instant.

The master is actually leaving? Thinking of this, Wang Xu was anxious, hurriedly ran over, and said loudly: "Master, where are you going with your burden?" ”

Seeing Wang Xu coming, Daoist Xuanwei smiled and said kindly: "Good apprentice, I have to go back for the teacher, because there are still many things to do for the teacher." I've been here for five years, and I've taught everything that should be taught to you, and what you can develop in the future can only depend on your own efforts and understanding. Don't let your teacher down! ”

Hearing these words of Daoist Xuanwei, Wang Xu felt very uncomfortable. After all, after living together for five years, this master loves him very much, how can he not feel it? Moreover, in this era, there is no such convenient transportation as before, so you can come and go as you want. Xuanwei Dao Chang is gone, maybe he won't see each other for many years, and it's even more likely that he will never see each other!

After bowing his head and being silent for a long time, Wang Xu suppressed the sadness of parting and nodded bitterly. "Master, since you still have something to do, I won't keep you anymore. I know that everyone has something to do, and separation is often inevitable! But can the master tell the disciple about the place of seclusion, and the disciple will definitely come to see you in the future. ”

"Huh! Very sensible! Daoist Xuanwei smiled and touched Wang Xu's head, his eyes flashed a hint of confusion, but he quickly recovered. Oh, yes! Separation is inevitable! ”

As he spoke, he smiled at Wang Xu again. "There is no need to visit, as far as I observe, the world will be in chaos. You are a layman, and if you come to the mountains, you will not only disturb the cultivation of your disciples, but you may also bring calamity. In the future, I will come to visit you when I am a teacher! ”

Although it was sad, Wang Xu also knew that what the master said was the truth. In the future, the world will be in chaos, and the princes will be fighting, and if others know about their mentorship, it is very possible to lead troops to trouble them if they can't retaliate.

Thinking of this, he no longer insisted on it, and said in a low voice: "The disciple understands. ”

Daoist Xuanwei smiled and nodded, then turned to Wang Yan, who had been standing quietly next to him, and said, "Then the poor Dao will leave first." ”

"Alright! Since the Taoist chief has made up his mind, and the contemptible people no longer insist on it, let me send the Taoist chief and Xiao'er for a ride! Saying that, Wang Yan also sighed deeply.

But Daoist Xuanwei shook his head. "No, sending each other will only add to the sadness. We Taoists don't need to be so polite. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and told Wang Xu again: "Do you remember the silk I gave you at the beginning?" As a teacher, I didn't expect that your talent was so good, and the master-apprentice fate between you and me would end so soon. But now is not the time for you to learn that silk silk, so the teacher specially wrote the annotations on this silk. ”

As he spoke, he took out a folded silk silk from his arms and handed it to Wang Xu. "When you are over fifteen years old, you can read it carefully, and then you will understand what it means. But you must also remember what the teacher said to you at the beginning, and you can burn the silk silk after you remember it, and don't let others know. If such a spell falls into the wrong hands, it will become an evil spell and cause endless harm, so you must remember it! ”

"Master, please rest assured, the apprentice will be kept alive and burned immediately after seeing it in the future. Never leak half a point! ”

After getting Wang Xu's promise, Daoist Xuanwei smiled. After turning to his father and bowing his hand, he stopped procrastinating and strode out of the hall.

Wang Xu and Wang Yan still couldn't help but want to follow and give them a ride, but Daoist Xuanwei raised his left hand and shook it without looking back!

Wang Xu and his father glanced at each other, but in the end they didn't follow. Just looked at the back of Xuanwei Dao Chang floating away......

"Xuanwei Dao Elder deserves to be a master in the world!" After Wang Yan sighed, he saw that Wang Xuqing was a little low, and couldn't help patting him on the shoulder and said: "Don't twist and pinch a man, if you miss your master, then you should be more outstanding and strive to do a great career." When your reputation reaches his ears, he will be pleased! ”

"Yes!" Wang Xu also knows this truth, but he always can't avoid that sadness in his heart.

Suppressing the feelings in his heart, Wang Xu was about to go to the martial arts academy to practice martial arts to divert his attention, but suddenly remembered what was in his head just now. couldn't help but hurriedly stopped Wang Yan, who was about to walk out of the hall.

"Father, the child has something to tell you."

"Huh? What's up? Wang Yan stopped, turned around and asked suspiciously.

Walking quickly in front of his father, Wang Xu whispered: "Father, the child has something to ask for. ”

"Huh. You say! As long as the Father can do it, he will satisfy you. ”

But Wang Xu shook his head, his face solemn. "Father, this matter is not only a child's business, but also a major event for our family!"

Hearing his son say so strictly, Wang Yan's brows also frowned. "What is it that makes the relationship so important?"
