Chapter 427: Heading to Daxing Island
After Zhong Yuan finished speaking, he let out a long sigh, his eyes were full of sadness, and now he recalled the previous things again, and how much helplessness and bitterness were melted into this long sigh.
Yin Yingying said: "It turns out that such a thing happened to Master back then, no wonder I often see Master secretly crying alone, and he never tells us about the past. ”
Zhong Yuan said: "Senior Sister Su is too strong, the death of Senior Brother Mu back then was too big a blow to Senior Sister Su, and Senior Sister Su also blamed Senior Brother Mu's death on herself, thinking that because of herself, Senior Brother Mu would also give her life in vain." After so many years, Senior Sister Su still hasn't come out of what happened back then, alas......"
Yin Yingying looked at the phoenix pendant in her hand, then handed it to Zhong Yuan, and said, "Teacher Zhong, after the master handed me this phoenix pendant, he said that I would hand it over to Teacher Zhong for safekeeping." ”
Zhong Yuan was a little surprised, then took the phoenix pendant and asked, "What else did your master say?"
Yin Yingying said: "Master said that if there is a chance in the future, I will put this phoenix pendant where it should be." ”
Feng Yuerong wondered, "Where are you going to put it?"
Zhong Yuan stared at the phoenix pendant in his hand, and said with some sadness: "This phoenix pendant was originally Senior Brother Mu's, and that phoenix pendant was buried with Senior Brother Mu. That's fine, when I have the opportunity to go to Senior Brother Mu's grave in the future, I will put this phoenix pendant back into Senior Brother Mu's tomb. ”
After Zhong Yuan put away the phoenix pendant, he said, "Miss Yin, since Senior Sister Su said that you should follow me to cultivate, then you can follow me to cultivate in the Dao Academy." It just so happened that Chu Feng and Rong'er were also students of the Daoist Academy, and they could take care of each other if they had anything in the future. ”
Feng Yue Rong said happily: "Great, Miss Yin, in the future, we will be able to cultivate together." ”
Yin Yingying was naturally very happy: "After that, it will trouble Brother Chu and Miss Feng." ”
Feng Yuerong said with a smile: "You entered the school later than us, and you will be our junior sister from then on, if there is anything, just look for us directly, hehe......"
Yin Yingying saluted and said, "Senior Sister Feng is good." ”
"Hee-hee-hee-hee...... Sister Yin is good. ”
Suddenly, there was a junior sister, Feng Yuerong was very happy, before, she was the youngest of herself, and she was everyone's little junior sister, and now she finally has a junior sister.
Zhong Yuan said: "Rong'er, Chu Feng, you should first take Sakura to familiarize yourself with here, arrange a place to live, and tomorrow, you will officially start class." ”
Feng Yuerong said: "Teacher Zhong, our room is very big, just enough to accommodate one person, otherwise, let Senior Sister Yin live with us." ”
Cher also said: "I think it's also very good, it's more convenient for all of us to live together." ”
Zhong Yuan agreed, "Okay, then let Sakura share a room with you." ”
After it was settled, several people came out of Zhong Yuan's place, and then went to the warehouse to move a bed, Chu Feng and Tie Shan helped move to the dormitory, and prepared some daily necessities.
After doing all this, in the evening, Shangguan Yunhua and Qiu Shuang'er came to gather with everyone, Yin Yingying also joined the Dao Palace, in order to celebrate Yin Yingying's joining the Dao Palace, everyone raised their glasses and celebrated.
After starting to study in the Taoist Academy, Yin Yingying gradually got used to being here, everyone got along very well, and Zhong Yuan also took care of Yin Yingying.
Yin Yingying's cultivation talent is very high, and under the teaching of her master, the Empty Cicada Fairy, she has made rapid progress, even in the Dao Academy where geniuses gather, she can also rank in the middle and upper ranks.
The cultivation of the empty cicada fairy was originally very high, and when she was in the Holy Gate, among all the female disciples, she was also one of the best, and then after that incident, the empty cicada fairy left the Holy Gate and went into seclusion on a mountain, and later accepted Yin Yingying as a disciple, and she was also carefully taught, on the one hand, because Yin Yingying was always a good material, on the other hand, it was also because of Mu Jianchen's death, so that the heart of the empty cicada fairy also died, and she wanted to forget everything, and in the days that followed, she spent all her energy on cultivating and teaching her disciples.
The Sky Cicada Fairy was born in the Holy Gate, and what Yin Yingying cultivated was naturally also the Taoist technique of the Holy Gate, which happened to coincide with Zhong Yuan, so when Zhong Yuan taught Yin Yingying to cultivate, it was naturally easier.
Time passed like a white horse, fleeting, and in the peaceful cultivation time of the Taoist Academy, a month passed quietly.
One day, when Zhong Yuan was teaching, he suddenly received a secret letter, and after reading the content of the secret letter, he quickly called Yin Yingying over, seeing that Teacher Zhong was so flustered, Feng Yuerong and Chu Feng also followed out.
After Yin Yingying came out, Zhong Yuan hurriedly asked, "Yingying, before you left, did your master say anything to you, or if there was anything to pay attention to?" ”
Yin Yingying thought about it carefully and said: "At that time, because of my father's matter, my master asked me to go back quickly, and said that after the matter was dealt with, he would let me go to the Holy Academy to find Teacher Zhong, and I would follow Teacher Zhong to practice in the future, and I didn't say anything else." ”
Zhong Yuan asked again, "Then where you cultivated, did anything happen at that time?"
Yin Yingying didn't understand what Teacher Zhong was going to ask, and after thinking about it carefully, she said: "It seems that there is a strange thing, that is, there is a river under our mountain, but in just a few days, the water of that river is suddenly gone, as if the upstream has been cut off, and I don't know what is going on." ”
Feng Yuerong was puzzled: "How could a good river suddenly stop flowing?"
Zhong Yuan said: "It seems that there may really be something bad going to happen?"
Yin Yingying said worriedly: "Teacher Zhong, what happened?"
Zhong Yuan said: "I received a secret letter from Senior Sister Su, Senior Sister Su said that in the next few days, something big may happen, let me talk to the Holy Gate, pay attention." ”
Hearing that it was Master's secret letter, Yin Yingying was overjoyed and said, "Teacher Zhong, how is my Master now?"
Zhong Yuan shook his head and said, "Senior Sister Su didn't say it, nor did she tell me about her current situation, she just asked me and the Holy Gate to pay more attention to what might happen." In the past few days, I have been watching the sky at night, and I have faintly found some bad signs, Senior Sister Su may have found something, I am going to ask her. Sakura, tell me, where is your master now?"
"This, Master Zhong, Master said, don't let me tell you Master's whereabouts, I'll ......"
Yin Yingying looked a little embarrassed, and didn't know whether to say it or not.
Zhong Yuan said a little anxiously: "Sakura, I know your master's character, she is afraid that we will all worry about her, so she hid alone, but now something bad may happen, I must find your master and find out what is going on, Sakura, you just tell me the memory, if your master blames you, I will bear all the consequences for you." ”
Feng Yuerong also persuaded: "Senior Sister Yin, you can tell Teacher Zhong Zhong about your master's whereabouts, if something happens here, then your master may be in danger?"
Yin Yingying was worried about her master's safety, and she also felt that she shouldn't hide it from Teacher Zhong, and after thinking about it carefully, she said: "Teacher Zhong, my master is on Daxing Island outside Yong'an City, Jingzhou, and now, there are only two people on the island, my master and my senior sister. ”
After knowing the residence of his junior sister, Zhong Yuan said, "Okay, I'll go there to find your master now." ”
Yin Yingying said: "Teacher Zhong, I haven't seen my master for a long time, so let's go with Teacher Zhong." ”
Zhong Yuan nodded and said, "Then let's go together." ”
"Teacher Zhong, we're going too, so let's go too. ”
Feng Yuerong also wanted to go with her, and after practicing in the Taoist Academy for more than a month, she also felt that it was a little too boring, and wanted to go and see it together.
"Are you going too?" Zhong Yuan didn't think about taking Feng Yuerong with him, this time he had something to do, and he didn't go out to play.
Feng Yuerong began to be coquettish again: "Teacher Zhong, there may be big things happening in the future, how can we not go, haven't you always taught us to have the world in our hearts, cultivate the Dao heart with our own hearts, cultivate the heavenly heart with the Dao heart, and let us know more about this world, now, isn't it the time for us to cultivate our hearts?"
Feng Yuerong said one after another, every sentence was reasonable, and Zhong Yuan couldn't refute it for a while, anyway, Feng Yuerong wanted to go to a place, and there were always various reasons.
After Zhong Yuan thought about it, he also felt that he could take them with him, so he agreed, Feng Yuerong followed, and Chu Feng naturally wanted to follow, just like that, after Zhong Yuan prepared for a while, he took Yin Yingying, Feng Yuerong and Chu Feng directly, and went directly to the place where the empty cicada fairy lived.
Traveling with a sword, naturally it is much faster than walking on the road, and although it is thousands of miles away to Daxing Island in Yong'an City, Jingzhou, Zhong Yuan and the others only took one day to reach the place.
Zhong Yuan took the three of them directly to Daxing Island, which is a small island with a small river, but now there is no water. There are also some dried fish and shrimp and other creatures in the river, which have been sunburned into shriveled jerky.
Zhong Yuan walked into the river, looked at the dry river and the dead fish and shrimp, and said, "It's really strange, how can there be no water in this river all of a sudden?"
Yin Yingying said: "Teacher Zhong, when we came just now, I saw that there was a lot less water in this lake, in the past, the lake surface had to extend to at least five zhang on the shore, but now the water level has dropped. ”
Zhong Yuan raised his eyes and looked at the lake in the distance, and then said: "This kind of thing is definitely not a good sign, let's go up and take a look." ”
Led by Yin Yingying, the group followed a path on the island towards the center of the island. After walking for nearly half an hour, I came to the central position of Daxing Island, which is not very high or big, and the island is relatively flat.
In a place in the center of Daxing Island, several houses appeared, a fence wall surrounded them, and several tall ginkgo trees grew in the yard, and the wind blew and the leaves rustled.
Yin Yingying pointed to the houses and said, "Teacher Zhong, that's where I, my master, and my sister practice." ”
Zhong Yuan looked at the houses in the distance and stopped. About to see his junior sister, Zhong Yuan's heart suddenly jumped wildly, how many years have passed, this excitement has reappeared, just like when he was young with Senior Sister Su. It's just that after many years, the world has changed, and I am already old, Qingsi has changed her gray hair, I don't know what the junior sister of the year has become now?
