Chapter VIII

Those day-to-day lives always pass quickly, and they slowly come into contact with the same brothers and sisters in addition to the senior brother and Ying'er. The sect is such a place, everyone is not too old, and there is no intrigue.

Master is always busy, and he is always wandering outside. I knew he was looking for Senior Brother Xu's whereabouts. Since Senior Brother Xu kowtowed and left the division, Senior Brother Xu has no news of Senior Brother Xu.

I've only met Master a few times, and Master has always kept his eyes closed. I know that he has mixed feelings about Senior Brother Xu, on the one hand, he feels that he has been blind and raised a traitor who wants to be taught, and on the other hand, he really treats him as his own son.

If Senior Brother Xu knew that his choice would make Master so painful, would he still take such a path? I do not quite understand.

Master has not been in the sect for a long time, and every time I meet him, he will give me good guidance, but he says, "You haven't found your way yet." ”

I asked him, "What is your own path?" ”

Master said, "You have to find it yourself, and when you find your own way, it will be when I pass on the 'Love Sword' to you." ”

My own path.

The 'Love Sword' was quite demanding, and I had to use the swordsman to strongly stimulate my emotions, and I couldn't find my own direction at that time. At the time of my brother's death, I remember that I picked up my sword.

It was to 'kill' the sword that was picked up.

At first, I didn't understand what Master meant. Now I think very clearly: my way, my way is to stay by my brother's side. Whether it's fantasy or reality, be sure to stay by his side. If someone were to take him away from me, I wouldn't allow it.

I have long found out that the more I sink into this illusion full of memories, the more I will not wake up, I know it. The reason why I have been immersed in this illusion is because I have drawn my sword and been attacked by emotion, and I have been trapped here all this time.

I wish my brother was still alive, that's why I'm here.

But I just need to know that the person who is next to me now is a senior brother, whether it is true or false, how can it be so important.

Another two months or so passed. Summer has slowly faded, and autumn has woven the world brown.

Life is always repeated, reading books, running, watching my brother practice swords. Those ordinary daily lives are always very nostalgic. It's just that at that time, I didn't know that even this kind of life would make me miss it in the future, I just felt that staying in the sect all the time, it would be a little boring after a long time. I pestered my senior brother to take me down the mountain to play, and it was too boring to stay in the sect all the time. Senior brother always plays me, my brain collapses, I'm fine, don't think about it.

Once again, I lay on my desk and muttered, "Senior brother, I want to go down the mountain to play." "Actually, I'm just talking, and I'm ready that my brother won't take care of me, my eyes secretly look out the window, the leaves have begun to turn yellow, and the wind rustles.

Unexpectedly, this time, the senior brother closed the book and put it aside, and asked me with a smile, "Do you want to go out and play so much?" I nodded.

Senior Brother Xu understood the longing in my eyes, shook his head, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you down the mountain for a walk." But you can only go to the village road at the foot of the mountain, and it won't take long to go, and you are not allowed to run around, do you hear? ”

I whispered two words, 'Long live Senior Brother!' ''Long live Senior Brother!'' I took the book from my brother's hand and put it back on the bookshelf with my book, and when I turned my head, I saw my brother smiling helplessly.

"Let's go."

"Hmm!"

It's not yet noon, it's still early. On weekdays, my senior brother and I would read books and leave from the Scripture Pavilion here at noon, but this time, when I was waiting for my senior brother and I to leave, Elder Lu also asked, "Why is it so early today?" ”

The senior brother pointed at me and said, "Yan'er has been pestering me for many days, and I want to go out for a walk." I'll take her out for a while. "Elder Lu knocked on my head with his hand, and his eyebrows were raised with a look of 'you are so troublesome', and I still smiled.

In fact, the sect is not opposed to everyone leaving the sect, but the young martial arts are poor and want to leave the sect, and it is inevitable that a few elders will nagging back and forth. There are not many disciples in the sect, and we are like the children of the elders. I just came to the sect, and I have no force to speak of, so I am naturally the object of their attention, how can I go out like this.

I followed my brother all the way, and the brothers and sisters who passed by would also look at me in amazement. After all, there is no time to run around when there is schoolwork. There were also a few who greeted the senior brother and asked, "Where is the senior brother?" The senior brother just smiled and said, "Something." ”

It wasn't until I walked to the gate of the sect that Elder Wang, who was stationed at the gate of the sect, looked at me a few times, and then looked at the senior brother with a frown, and the senior brother kept explaining, "I will take care of Yan'er." Will pay attention to safety. Mmmm, rest assured. We'll be back soon. "I repeated it several times before I moved Elder Wang, and then we were allowed to leave.

The sect slowly disappeared from my sight, and suddenly I felt that the air was a lot fresher, and the cicadas were not so irritable, so I couldn't help but say, "It's finally out!" He took a few deep breaths and couldn't help but laugh for a long time.

When I was tired of laughing, I saw that my senior brother looked at me with a complicated expression, and I felt like I was looking at a fool. He sighed and asked, "Are you so happy?" ”

"I've been closed to the sect for a few months, and I'm always bored. Brother, where are we going? ”

"Grandma Liu's house at the bottom of the mountain should run out of firewood, she has inconvenient legs and feet, and there is only one little grandson at home, go and help her pick up some firewood and come back."

"Oh, let's go."

It was early to descend the mountain and the weather was fine. The sun hung lazily in the sky. In the early autumn season, there are still small cicadas on the top of the mountain that make a small "eat" and "eat" sound, and I don't feel tired, but I synthesize a wonderful rhythm with the sound of stepping on the bluestone slab.

I followed behind my brother diagonally, half a step slower than him. Along the way, I always talk about some small topics that are not very bits and pieces. What "Zongmen's buns are very delicious" "Porridge is sometimes a different taste!" "The journey down the mountain wasn't too short, but I thought it was going to pass quickly.

The village is at the bottom of the mountain, and the land is very flat, and the fields are divided into fields with all kinds of vegetables.

"Xiao Ling, you're here!" "Yo, Xiao Ling is down?" Those mothers-in-law, grandfathers, and senior brothers who were busy planting vegetables greeted each other: "I see that you have lost a lot of weight." How can you take a few cucumbers here and eat them? ”

"No, no, in fact, I think I've gained a lot of weight."

"You're still to blame for the ceremony."

The mother-in-law and grandfather laughed together.

As we walked forward, we heard someone shouting, "Brother Ling!" Brother Ling! "A group of children came over and hugged the senior brother's waist, and they must listen to him say that he was in the sect on weekdays, and then they would show yearning eyes.

I think my brother is like a child king in the middle of a group of children. Finally, he sent a group of children away, but when he saw me smiling, he glanced away.

The village is not big, and after walking for a while, I arrived at a particularly dilapidated house, and Grandma Liu, who was sitting at the door, kept coughing and sorting out the food in her hands. A small child sat beside her, sitting quietly, and helping Grandma Liu to take care of the vegetables and leaves, which was not at all as lively as a five-year-old child should have.

"Grandma Liu!" The senior brother shouted like this, hurriedly pulled me over, squatted down in front of Grandma Liu, and smiled at Grandma Liu.

Grandma Liu stared at her senior brother for a long time, and said in surprise, "The cold wind is coming down!" Hungry or not? ”

"The cold wind is not hungry. I remember that grandma's house is running out of firewood, right? ”

"Hmm. Hey, I used to trouble God, but now I'm bothering you again. By the way, God bless the child? ”

I looked at my senior brother's eyes and dimmed for a moment, and then quickly said, "Senior brother, he went to practice, and he hasn't come back yet." A few days ago, I wrote back and asked how you were doing. ”

Grandma Liu grinned.
