Autumn colors are already thick.

Luo Ning sat in the middle of the yard sharpening a firewood knife.

His original firewood knife was lost at the thirteenth mountain gate.

There were many disciples who came to see him.

"Lord Luoshan, do you need me to help you move?"

"Lord Luoshan, I want to invite Lord Luoshan to dinner in a few days. ”

"Luoshan Master ......"

Luo Ning, a courtyard where birds don't, has more disciples today, he just responded lightly, raised his head from time to time, and didn't pay attention to it.

The sky is getting dark, and the chill is rising.

Luo Xue came to him, and she stood outside the chai door for a long time.

She knows Luo Ning's heart very well, and she also knows what her younger brother is going to do.

Luo Xue said, "I think Qin Boyi is very good, if you leave like this, I'm sorry for her." ”

Luo Ning said calmly, "I like her. ”

Luo Xue said, "Then why do you have to leave?"

Luo Ning thought for a while and replied, "After all, I promised Luo Wuwu to treat her. ”

Luo Xue was finally annoyed, and she said in a slightly cold voice, "You have a bright future, I really don't want you to have anything to do with her anymore." ”

She is Luo Ning's sister, and she doesn't care about the matter between Luo Ning and anyone, she just cares about Luo Ning's future.

Luo Ning smiled and said, "You are my sister, but you are not me after all." ”

......

The sound of sharpening knives started again, and Luo Xue left Luo Ning's courtyard.

Tonight seems to be a particularly long night, with no moon or stars in the sky, and it seems that it is preparing for the last rain to say goodbye to the hot summer.

Luo Ning stood in the courtyard.

He looked at the dark sky and thought about the girl who was afraid of the dark.

Ye Qing left.

Gu Changsheng left.

Zhou Tu is gone.

Li Shishi is gone.

Luo Wuwu is gone.

Now, he's gone, too.

He didn't know how to explain this matter to Qin Boyi, maybe he just didn't dare to face it.

Luo Ning didn't dare to meet anyone for the first time since he was a child.

He understood what Zhou Tu said - some people give up is a burden, and some people give up is liberation.

But instead of seeing it as a burden, he wanted to see it as a responsibility.

He suddenly remembered that tomorrow would probably be Jianyuan's adult test.

......

In two months, such a change has taken place.

He is now an elder of the Thirteen Sects, and even if he doesn't take the adult exam, he still has an extremely high status in the Sword Abyss.

The Qi Deficiency Liquid, which was especially needed in the past, is now readily available.

He walked out of the yard gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, Luo Ning glanced back silently, and then closed the door lightly.

......

Yang Dingtian was waiting for him at the gate of the courtyard.

His expression was solemn and a little bitter.

"You must know that Yi Shuihan has a great reputation in the cultivation world, and it is precisely because of this that after he disappeared, there were many people who looked for him to repay his kindness, and there were also many people who sought revenge on him. ”

Luo Ning said, "But I'm going to southern Xinjiang this time. ”

Yang Dingtian said silently, "The Demon Lord has appeared, I can't leave Jianyuan, and I don't want Jianyuan's disciples to leave Jianyuan. ”

Luo Ning looked at the dark night sky and said, "Do you know what the natural disaster predicted by the Great Priest of the Celestial Empire is?"

Yang Dingtian shook his head, "It has something to do with Xuantian Shentie, the Demon Lord has been looking for the whereabouts of Xuantian Shentie all these years, and he does not hesitate to interfere in these state affairs of the Great Zhou, maybe it is for the great commander of the Celestial Empire." ”

Luo Ning thought of the Tianxin Tower he had seen in the Celestial Empire that day. His eyes were slightly dark.

Yang Dingtian took out one of the corners of the map from his arms and put it in Luo Ning's hand.

Luo Ning was puzzled, "If the Demon Lord is really looking for this Xuantian Divine Iron, then wouldn't it be very dangerous for me to take it with me?"

Yang Dingtian said, "It is precisely because of danger that we can have the motivation to grow." ”

Luo Ning took the piece of paper, rubbed it in his hand for a long time, and then carefully put it in his arms.

Yang Dingtian said, "I will secretly contact Gun Lin and Beihai Yunshan to jointly monitor the Demon Lord, he is injured, and he should not dare to show up again in the short term." ”

He continued, "Moreover, the southern frontier is far away, and it is difficult for my Jian Yuan to protect you anytime and anywhere. ”

Luo Ning bowed, "Thank you, Sect Master." ”

Yang Dingtian's eyes were solemn, and he said, "Lord Luoshan take care." ”

Luo Ning bowed again, "Sect Master take care." ”

......

Yang Dingtian turned around.

Then he asked, "Really don't look at it anymore?"

Luo Ning said, "The sword abyss is very beautiful, how can you see enough?"

Yang Dingtian said, "You know what I'm talking about. ”

Luo Ning lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly, "If you don't look at it, your heart will be confused if you see it." ”

......

......

He turned and went back to the house.

I tidied up my clothes very carefully, and then put the wood knife on the head of the bed.

He slept on Luo Wuwu's bed, closed his eyes slightly, listened to the sound of autumn cicadas outside, and thought to himself that there was no moon tonight, and he didn't know if the girl would be afraid.

Luo Ning fell into a deep sleep, and then he had a dream, in which there was Qin Boyi and Luo Wuwu.

The dream is beautiful.

......

......

This morning.

Many of the disciples got up very early, because they knew that this was Jian Yuan's annual adult exam.

No matter who it is, as long as they are born in the same year, they will all be assessed on this day, which is also an opportunity for many big disciples to enter the high mountain gate from the first mountain gate.

Liu Youfeng lay on a wicker chair and looked at the sky.

There was a faint hatred in his eyes, but it was buried deep by him.

His right arm was completely gone, and his sword tire was badly damaged, and it was impossible for him to hold a sword again in his life.

Liu Youfeng looked at the rising sun, and suddenly there was some deep envy in his eyes.

......

......

Qin Boyi also got up early.

Luo Ning left after finishing yesterday, she didn't go to him, thinking that something might happen to him.

Today's coming-of-age ceremony, as a disciple of the sect master, she naturally wants to participate.

But as soon as she wanted to see Luo Ning, she couldn't help but feel a little happy in her heart, and the joy on her face was overwhelming.

She changed into an extremely clean sword robe.

Then head to the Sixth Mountain Gate.

The coming-of-age style was chosen here so that all the people of Sanmen could walk the same path.

She stood quietly at the foot of the mountain, and like the rest of the disciples, she was just an ordinary disciple today.

On the gate of the mountain sat the elders.

She didn't see Ronin.

Qin Boyi thought about yesterday's events, and said in his heart that Luo Ning might have moved to the thirteenth mountain gate, so the farthest, naturally came slowly?

She stood at the foot of the mountain, listening to the introduction of adulthood above, but her expression became more and more nervous.

Some of the elders above began to roll call.

The disciples who clicked on their names had to go forward to test the realm to screen.

If there are disciples who do not reach the realm, they will be expelled from the mountain gate.

But Qin Boyi's concern was not that she would be expelled from the mountain gate.

She was worried about something else.

......

The sun in the sky gradually rose, so the sadness on Qin Boyi's face also rose.

The elder called Luo Ning's name, but no one answered.

There was a discussion in the crowd, and the elder nodded a few more times, but no one answered.

Qin Boyi frowned and lowered his head.

She was very smart, otherwise she wouldn't be a genius.

She thought about it, and then realized that something bad might be wrong.

Qin Boyi sighed, she turned around, she couldn't care about anything anymore, she left the sixth mountain gate and began to run wildly.

......

She was not running to the small courtyard behind Luo Ning's first mountain gate.

She ran to the sword ridge of the sword abyss.

——

It was the only way out of Jianyuan.

......
