Chapter Twenty-Four: Taking Refuge and Escaping the Heavenly Realm, Master and Apprentice Always Accompany Each Other
Three months later, the celestial realm.
A dark-skinned girl rolled up her sleeves and looked around, smiling when she saw the figure not far away, and strode towards her.
"I'm looking for you, so you're here." The girl who was squatting on the ground to arrange the herbs slowly stood up, the robe on her body was a little big, wide and loose on her thin shoulders, a few strands of hair fell on her cheeks, the girl stretched out her hand to brush them behind her ears, and two small pear vortices appeared on her red face, which were Mo Fei.
"Yun'er, you walk like a teenager, and you actually roll up your sleeves, so that your master will talk about you again when he sees it." Mo Fei likes this girl named Yun'er very much, she is Xiao Se's apprentice, although her master is cold to people, but Yun'er is different from him, not only loves to laugh but also loves to talk, and she is very compatible with her, since she arrived in the heavenly realm, she has not made any other friends except Yun'er.
I don't know how Long Fuzhi is doing in Xuan Iceland, since the competition on Dragon Leap Island, she was in a coma for a month before she woke up, and when she woke up, she was already in the heavenly realm.
Hearing the news of Meng Yan's death, she couldn't believe that she killed the young man, after so long, she still couldn't remember the scene at that time, she only remembered that she played the song of the blood soul, and she couldn't remember the rest of the story. But Meng Yan died, and she had to bear the blame for the death of that young man for the rest of her life.
The Dragon King of the West Sea asked the Dragon King of the East China Sea to hand over Mo Fei's blood debt due to the pain of losing his son, and the Dragon King of the East China Sea had already regarded Mo Fei as his own daughter in his heart, but on the other side was his own siblings, so he was forced to have no choice but to hand over Mo Fei to Yuye Xingjun and let him take her to the heavenly realm to protect her.
When she first came to the Heavenly Realm, Mo Fei always woke up in a dream, dreaming that the dragon was rushing towards her with a fierce light, and dreamed that Long Fuzhi was beaten and spit blood in Xuan Iceland, and when he woke up, he was sweating profusely, and it was difficult to fall asleep.
She was in a trance all day, and soon the master said that she had something urgent to leave for a few days, so let her follow Xiao Se, but fortunately, Yun'er was always by her side, teaching her how to distinguish herbs, and she slowly integrated here.
Ever since Murphy came, Xiao Se had felt a lot more troubled. Yun'er and Mo Fei are tired of being together day by day, and they can't see anyone all day long, saying that they want to take her to get acquainted with the Heavenly Palace, but after two months, they actually learned to steal and play tricks.
These days hurt the liver and get angry, if Yuye doesn't come back and take his apprentice away, Xiao Se is afraid that he will be angry. After looking around the yard and not seeing anyone, but seeing wisps of white smoke rising above the kitchen, he walked into the kitchen and saw Yun'er and Mo Fei squatting on the ground and nibbling sweet potatoes, their faces were dark.
"I asked you to take back the madder that dried in the yard ten days ago and crush it, where's the madder?" Seeing them staring at him with wide eyes, Xiao Se gritted his teeth angrily, knowing that the drying time of herbs is also very particular, "Have you forgotten?" ”
"Master, let's go now." Yun'er hurriedly pulled up Mo Fei's sleeve and ran out, Mo Fei put a hot thing in his hand, showing a flattering smile, Xiao Se looked down at his hand, it was actually a dirty sweet potato, and a roar came from the house, causing Yun'er and Mo Fei to tremble for a while.
After Yu Ye came back, he wanted to ask for a cup of tea from Xiao Se, but he saw Xiao Se pushing Mo Fei out with a gloomy face and locking the master and apprentice out of the door.
Yu Ye shook his head and smiled, it seemed that Mo Fei had recovered well during his absence, and he was able to annoy Xiao Se, Mo Fei scratched his head, and wondered why the master was so happy to be kicked out.
"Let's go, let's go home." Yu Ye said softly.
"Home?" The word fell on Murphy's ears, and it was extremely warm, and she looked up at the man beside her, where he was her home.
After walking for a long time, the two came to a closed gate, "squeak", the gate was pushed open by Yu Ye, the fallen leaves in the courtyard were blown all over the ground by the wind, and a few green leaves remained on a few bare tree trunks, walking on the path leading to the backyard, the dead branches under their feet were trampled and made a crisp sound.
"Fei'er, you live here, clean up by yourself, I'm a little tired for the teacher, go back to the room first." Mo Fei looked at Master's back worriedly, from the moment she stepped into this courtyard, she felt that Master's face was not very good, and she did not speak all the way.
The room was neatly furnished, but no one had lived in it for a long time, and Mo Fei shook off the quilt on the bed, and the long-dormant dust drifted into the air, and she sneezed heavily.
Pushing open the window and seeing the decaying scene outside the house, Mo Fei felt a little sad in his heart, this place should not be such a lifeless appearance, those flowers used to bloom in the sun, and the smell of tranquility wafted in the air, Master and Brother Xiao Se would have a few drinks in the courtyard, but now there was only desolation left here.
From today on, she wants to change this place back to its original appearance, Mo Fei picked up a wooden hairpin, coiled up his long hair, rolled up his sleeves, and began to work hard.
A day passed, the dead leaves in the yard were swept to the corners, the clean sheets fluttered in the wind in the courtyard, the withered flowers and plants flourished, and the well-fed koi fish swam happily in the pool.
Yun'er came to see Mo Fei with a basket of food, but the hateful master actually drove Mo Fei away, remembering that no one had lived in the place where Yuye Xingjun lived for a long time, and she didn't know what happened to Mo Fei, so she came to visit her in a hurry.
All this in front of her made Yun'er stunned, she wondered if she had gone to the wrong place, during the days when Yuye Xingjun was away, she took care of the koi in the pool, but she didn't expect it to take on a new look.
"Yun'er, why are you here?" Mo Fei happily took Yun'er's hand when he saw Yun'er coming.
"Murphy, what have you done, how has it changed here?" Yun'er was still surprised.
"Let me eat something first, and then I'll talk to you slowly." Mo Fei took a peach out of the basket and nibbled on it, she hadn't eaten for a long time, and her eyes were dizzy with hunger.
Hearing Mo Fei say while eating that she cleaned up the entire courtyard by herself, Yun'er helped her beat her shoulders and rub her back distressedly, and said, "You, you, you're not in a hurry to clean the courtyard at this time, why bother yourself so much?" ”
"I just saw the decay of this courtyard, and my heart was sad, is it the same as before?" Mo Fei asked as he nibbled on a peach.
"I don't know, when I came to the Heavenly Realm, this was already like this, in the past, your master used to lock himself in the house, and the courtyard was ruined because no one took care of it." Yun'er shook her head.
"Why did my master lock himself in the house?" Mo Fei turned his face and looked at Yun'er.
"You don't know?" A flash of surprise flashed in Yun'er's eyes, she thought that Mo Fei, as a disciple of Yuye Xingjun, already knew about his past.
"I don't know...... What's the matter? Mo Fei saw that Yun'er's face was strange, and hurriedly asked, Yun'er wanted to speak and stopped, Mo Fei was so anxious that he grabbed her sleeve and asked her to make her clear.
Yun'er saw Mo Fei asking, so she told her what she knew about the Spike Dawn Fairy.
"Yuye Xingjun once had a beloved woman, she was the Spike Dawn Fairy. In the battle of Heavenly Court that year, the Sui Dawn Fairy died under the Soul Breaking Sword, and Yuye Xingjun's eyes were also injured because of this, and later he went to the East China Sea Dragon Palace to teach the stupid dragon to play the piano, and all the immortals said that he left the heavenly realm for healing. ”
Mo Fei's heart swelled with all kinds of feelings, it turned out that the master had such a sad past, and she only then knew that the occasional injury on the master's face was only because she remembered the spike dawn fairy, this name she had obviously heard for the first time, why did she feel so familiar, as if she had heard or seen it somewhere.
Xiao Se couldn't rest assured that Yu Ye was there, after all, there were too many painful memories there, as soon as he entered the door, he saw that this courtyard had returned to its previous appearance, full of life everywhere, a smile appeared on Xiao Se's face, it seemed that all this was Mo Fei's credit, seeing that Yun'er came before him, and Mo Fei was talking, he didn't bother them, and walked straight to Yu Ye's house. Pushing open the door, seeing Yu Ye sitting silently on the edge of the bed, Xiao Se slowly paced to him.
"Would you like a drink?" Xiao Se saw Yu Ye holding a wooden comb tightly in his hand, and seeing him shake his head, Xiao Se couldn't bear to mention that name.
"No, I know what you're going to say, don't worry, I won't be depressed anymore." Yu Ye spoke slowly, and after Sui Xiaoxiao left, he borrowed wine every day to kill his sorrows, but he was even more painful when he woke up drunk, and he knew that Xiao Se was worried about him.
"You're a good apprentice, and I now know why you like her." Xiao Se said.
"She is like a light in the darkness, a person who can see hope." Speaking of Mo Fei, Yu Ye's eyes seemed to flash with a glimmer of light.
Life in the heavenly realm is undoubtedly leisurely and happy, Mo Fei likes to clean the house, likes to try all kinds of novel dishes, likes to listen to Master play the lyre, Master's qin is Fuxiqin, the sound of the piano is low, can soothe all the troubles and uneasiness in her heart.
But Murphy never touched the piano again, and every time his fingers touched the strings, the memories of the past would come to mind. Although she never mentioned it to her master, he seemed to be able to guess what was on her mind, and never opened his mouth to urge her to practice the piano.
Xiao Se often came to Yu Ye to play chess, and Yu Ye dictated that he came to hold the son. Whenever he saw Xiao Se being cornered by his master, Mo Fei was amazed, he never thought that the master couldn't see, but his heart was clear, the whole chess game was in his heart, Xiao Se knew every step he took, and he admired the master more and more in his heart.
While cleaning up his master's room, Mo Fei stumbled upon a scroll, and when he opened it, he was presented with a portrait of a woman. The person in the portrait leans under the plum tree, full of grace, looking forward to the brilliance, and the inscription reads, "Plum snow fights for spring, the dark fragrance floats, the landscape is empty, only for the Yi people, give the ear of dawn." ”
It turned out that she was the Dawn Fairy, the master's beloved, Mo Fei looked at the stunning woman in the portrait, no wonder the master has never forgotten her, anyone with such a look will be emotional, not to mention men, even she is difficult to resist her beauty.
Since then, whenever Mo Fei saw Master sitting alone in the courtyard, she felt a little lonely and sad in that back, and she pretended not to know anything, ran to him, and chattered non-stop.
"Master, the flowers in the yard are blooming, but they are fragrant......"
"Master, I saw the Nine Xuan Fairy dance last time, and it was so good......"
"Master, I made your favorite dim sum, can you taste ......it?"
"Master......"
She didn't want her master to be immersed in grief any longer, and from this day on, she would take good care of him, and let the Spike Dawn Fairy under the Nine Springs no longer worry.
Time passed day by day, and suddenly the news of Jiuxiao Peihuanqin came, I heard that the long-lost Jiuxiao Peihuanqin appeared in the Rakshasa Sea City in the south of the world, and Yu Ye decided to go to the Rakshasa Sea City alone to find out.
"Rakshasa Sea City is the most dangerous place in the Three Realms, the fish and dragons are mixed, even the Emperor of Heaven can't control it, this trip is dangerous, you have to think twice before acting." Xiao Se admonished Yu Ye.
"This piano is Suisui's favorite thing in life, I have made up my mind, don't say it again." Yu Ye said firmly.
"It's just a rumor, maybe the Nine Heavens Peihuanqin isn't there?" Xiao Se still hoped that Yu Ye would dispel this thought.
"Then I'm going to check it out too, and I'm not going to miss a chance to find it." No one can shake his determination to find Jiuxiao Peihuanqin, seeing Yu Ye's resolute attitude, Xiao Se sighed, Recently, the Emperor of Heaven was slightly ill and he couldn't accompany Yu Ye to go with him, thinking about it, there was only one person who could let him entrust him.
"Now that you've made up your mind, take Murphy with you, she can help you, be careful." Before leaving, Xiao Se handed a medicine bag to Mo Fei and asked her to carry it with her in case of emergency.
In this way, the master and apprentice said goodbye to Xiao Se and Yun'er, left the heavenly realm, and went to the Rakshasa Sea City to find the Jiuxiao Peihuanqin.
