CHAPTER XXII
We stayed here for a while. It was also here that I met Senior Brother Xu, and I didn't know he was Senior Brother Xu at that time. Ying'er and Senior Brother Xu were young when they met, and after so many years, they don't remember what Senior Brother Xu looks like.
But Senior Brother Xu remembered her.
Senior Brother Xu is here to stay at this inn. At that time, Ying'er and I were fighting, and when I saw someone coming, Ying'er asked, "Is the guest officer here for dinner or for staying at the hotel?" ”
After reincarnation for so many lifetimes before noticing, Senior Brother Xu was suddenly stunned for a moment, and then stared at Ying'er for a while before saying, "Stay in the hotel." "Ying'er and I were in a big fight, and neither of us noticed his gaze.
At this time, I deliberately paid attention to it, and Senior Brother Xu's eyes were full of pain and nostalgia. Obviously he had been gone for many years, but he still came back here, back to this inn where he could see the peak of the Sword Sect.
Aunt Ruan came out of the kitchen and looked at Senior Brother Xu, and said, "It's Xiaoyu, I haven't seen you for a few years." You come here every year at this time. ”
Senior Brother Xu smiled, "You also know, my father and mother are buried here, although it is far away, but they will come back to give them incense on their death day, right?" And I haven't been back for so many years, and they may be scolding me at the bottom. ”
Aunt Ruan sighed: "Then you are destined to not go far, right?" ”
Senior Brother Xu didn't speak, just pursed his lips, and then said, "Don't say it, let me see what to eat today." Then he found a place to sit down.
Aunt Ruan just shook her head, and said, "What to eat, tell Yan'er and Ying'er, the two little girls, I'll go and get busy first." ”
Senior Brother Xu's home is indeed in this neighborhood, in fact, it is nearby, but it takes half a day to go back and forth. He actually still can't let go of the Sword Sect. If the master knew that he couldn't let it go, it was estimated that he would feel a lot better.
It has been many years since I knew why Senior Brother Xu had to go down the mountain. I remember that Senior Brother Xu's sister was favored by the Heavenly Poison Sect, and it is said that his sister is a rare woman born when the moon and the sun are cloudy, and she is very suitable to become a saint of the Heavenly Poison Sect.
But if you become a saint of a cult like the Heavenly Poison Sect, I'm afraid there will be no time to come back. Senior Brother Xu's sister was unwilling, and Senior Brother Xu's father and mother also tried their best to resist, and finally after Senior Brother Xu went out to play, when he returned home, there was only his father's corpse and blood in the house. And his sister, he couldn't find it.
There was no way, Senior Brother Xu buried his father and mother, and took good care of his own house, inquiring all the way, he knew that there was a sect nearby, called Sword Sect. Before he reached the gate of the Sword Sect, he met the master who was just about to return to the Sword Sect.
He is different from me, he has hatred in his heart, and he has a reason to draw his sword, so even if it is to know the news of his sister, he must go down the mountain.
In some ways, Senior Brother and Senior Brother Xu are the same kind of people, and they have reasons why they have to go down the mountain.
Thinking about it carefully, Senior Brother Xu is really a very distressing person.
Ying'er didn't remember Senior Brother Xu at all, so she secretly said to me, "I always feel that person is very familiar." "At the beginning, I only played with her" Is it because you look good-looking, so you feel familiar? ”
Ying'er usually laughs and chases after me. But this time, she just shook her head in confusion, "It's so strange, I must have seen it." "It's a pity that we didn't have the consciousness to think about it at that time. I just think I can't remember it.
Senior Brother Xu ordered a lot of meals, such as "spicy beef", "spicy chicken" and miscellaneous side dishes, as well as a plate of peanuts and two jars of wine. I'm wondering if he can eat so much alone? Senior Brother Xu stretched out his hand to greet us, "You two little girls, come over and eat together, right?" ”
"Huh?" Ying'er looked at me and then at Senior Brother Xu, "Call us?" "I also looked dazed" What? ”
Senior Brother Xu just smiled, "Don't get me wrong, I am a martial arts practitioner and I also use a sword, seeing that you are also a martial arts practitioner, you also have calluses on your palms when you serve food, I guess you also use a sword, right?" ”
I just think it's a little scary, how can this person see so many things from such a simple place.
However, Senior Brother Xu also has a good face, otherwise I guess I would think that he has other plans. I always feel that he is not a bad person, and I feel that he is just a very smart martial arts practitioner.
Ying'er and I hesitated for a long time but sat down. But I just bit my chopsticks, and I didn't dare to speak, for fear that what I would say was not good.
Senior Brother Xu looked a little familiar, and asked us, "You are so young, and your sect is willing to let you come out?" I guess it's from the Sword Sect over there, right? Senior Brother Xu, Nunuzui: "I'm afraid that if I didn't come down, I didn't dare to set off if my things were confiscated, right?" Eh, Aunt Ruan! Come here, sit down, sit here. Then he took a peanut and smiled in his mouth.
Aunt Ruan heard it, so she went to get the dishes and chopsticks and sat down like this, and said with a smile, "Yes, the child of the Sword Sect." If it weren't for Yan'er's little girl who wanted to find her senior brother, it is estimated that they would not have gone down the mountain much in their lives, right? ”
"Aunt Ruan!" I was in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Don't, don't say that." ”
Ying'er also followed, "That's it, how good it is to stay in the sect, why do you want to come out." ”
"Eh, then what's your brother's name, I've been walking around, maybe I've heard it." Senior Brother Xu raised his eyebrows at me, and put down his chopsticks, "Let's talk about it, maybe we can still walk together." ”
I said, "It's called Ling Hanfeng, and he also uses a sword." ”
All of a sudden, Senior Brother Xu froze, then lowered his head and whispered "Ling Hanfeng, Hanfeng ......" It's really a pity that he didn't know that he was Senior Brother Xu at the beginning. Senior Brother Xu's tone was very gentle, completely different from the somewhat frivolous voice before.
Just like Senior Brother has always been by my side, before Senior Brother Xu left the sect, Senior Brother Xu was always by Senior Brother's side. Their feelings are also deep.
Ying'er asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't there news of him? I also stared at Senior Brother Xu, with some disappointment in my eyes.
Senior Brother Xu saw that we were a little lost, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no." The name was familiar to me, so I pronounced it twice. But I haven't seen each other. I've just heard them say that it's a teenage boy, right? There is always an eagle by his side, and it seems to be going to Kaifeng. ”
"Hmmm! That must be Senior Brother! I laughed, "Senior brother is going to Tianbo Mansion, so I'm going to Kaifeng." ”
"Tianbo Mansion trial, I know, all kinds of people have something to go to. I'm going too. "Senior Brother Xu has two peanuts" is a bit rushed, and it is estimated that he will not be able to catch up with the trial. ”
Ying'er asked curiously, "Then what are you going to do?" ”
Senior Brother Xu told her with a mysterious face, "You don't know, I was planning to book a New Year at the inn over there a few years ago. Now, I'll go back, hehe, I can sublet the room to someone else, how cost-effective. After that, he took a sip of wine, looking like a good and wandering look.
