Chapter 11: The Past (Part I) (5k)

"Boom", the cup that had just been used to drink sobering tea on the Qingding table shattered out of thin air, and the fragments did not splash everywhere, but turned into powder and piled up on the table.

Qingding squinted at Zhu Sarcastic and smiled: "What did my junior brother say just now, I'm also old, and my ears are not very good." ”

Out of the corner of his eyes, Zhu Yan glanced at Qingding's exposed hands, and at first glance, his arms were stiff, and he pretended to be stupid and said: "Ah, did I say anything, alas, senior brother, it's all my fault, I'm old and easy to talk nonsense, and my memory is also poor, if I say anything just now, it's all a joke, it's all a joke." ”

Qingding looked at Zhu Yan pretending to be stupid, sad and indignant in his heart, this junior brother didn't stimulate him once or twice, but he pretended to be stupid afterwards, and he promised the master to take good care of him, so he could only endure it, just like a fist hitting cotton, there was nowhere to spread his anger, he could only silently recite in his heart to be calm, to be calm, to suppress the anger in his heart, and continued the topic of insisting with Zhu Yan with a cold face.

"This named disciple is a bit special, let me explain his origin to you first......"

From the beginning of the encounter at the food stall, watching the game at the wine table during the period, betting, and the conversation under the tree at the end, Qingding told the story eloquently, and told Zhu Yan everything he said.

Then asked Zhu sarcastically: "Senior brother, judging from his origin, you should also have a plan in your heart, I handed him over to you, will you still stick to your original opinion?"

"Senior brother, don't bury me, it's you who is the sect master now, since you have decided, ask me what to do, if I could make a decision, I would have done it a long time ago."

Zhu Wei didn't pay attention to Qing Ding's question, but made fun of Qing Ding, but he felt a hint of self-deprecation in his smile.

Looking at the self-deprecation hidden in Zhu Yan's smile, Qing Ding felt that it was not a taste, for so many years, the junior brother did not come out of that incident, and he also did not come out, and this also affected his attitude towards the problem of Zhiyan, not so much that he provided a lot of help to Zhiyan, but that he was making up for what had happened, because when he said his origin, Qing Ding had a trace of thought in his heart, but Qing Ding didn't want to believe it, and chose to use the ruins of the ancient gods to deceive himself. But when he watched him leave, he still pronounced the name.

Dengfeng, a name that was forbidden to be mentioned in Qingshan Hall and even in the entire cultivation world, but he was the most beloved senior brother of Qingding and Zhu Yan.

Qingding remembered that he was taken back to the mountain gate by the master who was traveling outside the mountain gate at the age of ten, and he saw the senior brother Dengfeng who came to greet the master outside the mountain gate, aged fifteen, with smooth and resolute face lines, clean and durable appearance, giving people a full sense of trust, and on this face there are a pair of dark eyes like ink, but they are as bright as a galaxy under the reflection of the sun, and he looks at him as if he is peeking into the mystery of the starry sky, which makes people want to explore and understand the mystery. It was also from the moment they met that Qingding realized that a person like Senior Brother was born suitable to be a leader.

The master handed over the Qingding to Dengfeng, and went to do things, Dengfeng was very cheerful, and the young and nervous Qingding was familiar with it, on the way back to the master's residence, I heard the master's roar in the distance, Zhu Shi, you stop for me.

At this time, Qingding saw a young man who looked immature, seemed to be the same age as himself, and ran towards himself and his senior brother, he skillfully hid behind the senior brother, and stuck out his tongue at the master with an angry face behind him, this young man is Zhu Yan, the master's only son, the senior brother is full of helplessness, the master is wandering outside, Zhu Yan is very fond of causing trouble, he can only be a peacemaker, for so many years, he has almost stepped on every elder, this time the master came back, Dengfeng wanted to finally be freed, and he didn't have to stretch his face to do this kind of thing, It turned out to be the same.

Alas, Deng Feng sighed, thinking that he was born to nanny, and began to solve the problem, he first hinted with his eyes that Qingding would take Zhu Yan away first, and then sorted out the phrases in his mind, and matched his eyes and facial expressions to help Zhu Yan explain to the master.

Qing Ding and Zhu Wei walked together, I didn't know what to say, Zhu Yan had an aura that no one could approach, because it was late at night, the matching battle was about to start, and every road in Qingshan Hall was leading directly to the square, so Qing Ding found that there were more disciples on the side of the road, but they saw Zhu Wei pointing and whispering, Zhu Wei didn't care, and walked forward by himself, Qing Ding was not worried that Zhu Yan had to follow, and suddenly a fat figure blocked in front of Qing Ding and Zhu Wei.

The surrounding disciples saw the people, they all distanced, they couldn't afford to provoke, this little fat man is the most beloved grandson of the great elder in the hall, usually used to show off his might in the hall by the majesty of the great elder, but the last time he met Zhu Wei, he was repaired by Zhu Wei, and then he was locked up by the big elder, not so much to punish him, but to protect, Zhu Wei's grudge is famous in the hall, but this little fat man has been so angry, and swore that he must get the field back, and this will come to block Zhu Wei as soon as the confinement ends.

Zhu Wei playfully looked at the little fat man who was blocking in front of him with a gritted tooth, Qingding was nervous to death, especially when he saw the two sturdy men who were fifteen or sixteen years old but had intermediate disciple clothes behind the little fat man, Qingding was under a lot of pressure, when he just left, the senior brother secretly entrusted him to be optimistic about Zhu Yan and not to cause trouble, but this guy is really a disaster, so it doesn't stop at all, just if the master is unhappy over there, there will be a brawl here.

Qingding had no choice but to stand in front of Zhu Wei, and completely blocked Zhu Wei behind him with a not too strong back, this scene made Zhu Wei's eyes flash, and there was a trace of warmth in his heart, at this time, the little fat man said mockingly: "So Zhu Wei, aren't you very kind, you actually want such a low-level disciple to protect, look at the clothes and decorations, you are still an ordinary disciple, when did you fall so cheaply, but think about you are a wild seed, the same as your short-lived old lady, is this in line." ”

Qingding's brows furrowed like most passers-by, this little fat man's words were too vicious, vicious like a shrew in the market, and the sentence that looked at the decoration was still an ordinary disciple, if it was too cheap, this was really naked discrimination, most of the people present were ordinary disciples, and they were very uncomfortable, and at this moment they all spontaneously supported Zhu Yan in their hearts.

Zhu Wei did not have emotional fluctuations because of the little fat man's verbal insults, but only Qingding knew that Zhu Yan was already on the verge of breaking out, and the chills coming from behind him were about to catch up with the cold wind of winter.

At this moment of tension, the senior brother appeared like a savior in the eyes of Qing Ding, protecting Qing Ding and Zhu Wei behind him, staring coldly at the little fat man, a killing intent that seemed to be a substance appeared, so frightened that the two intermediate disciples behind the little fat man retreated again and again, with cold sweat on their foreheads, and looked at Dengfeng with a wary face, they had heard of Dengfeng's name, this man who is known as the best talent in the sect but loves to waste his talent the most, is not so much a waste, but too a genius, and he will learn everything as soon as he learns, which leads to his lack of interest in cultivation, I started to spend all day in the library and read all kinds of books that no one cared about.

"Bang", the little fat man sat on the ground, a crystal liquid flowed out of his crotch, his face was full of horror as if he had walked around from the ghost door, and his feet trembled.

Seeing that it had an effect, Dengfeng shrugged his shoulders helplessly, put back the murderous aura, led Zhu Yan and Qingding one by one, and walked towards the residence, at this time Zhu Wei suddenly said: "Senior brother, let's eat pork ramen tonight, I don't know why, I suddenly want to eat, maybe I saw a pig." ”

What a poisonous mouth, and only stabbing people's sore spots, Qingding felt Zhu Yan's trash talk skills for the first time, looked back at the little fat man who was sitting on the ground, and suddenly felt a little sympathy for him in his heart, the little fat man relieved himself at this time, saw that he was incontinent in front of so many people, and heard Zhu Wei's words, where did he an eight-year-old child encounter this scene, after this kind of anger, he suddenly couldn't control his tears, and ran out of the crowd crying, and the two intermediate disciples saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, so they had to chase after each other.

Returning to the residence, Qingding looked at the master who had lost his breath, but he still had a cold face, and secretly sighed that the senior brother was really powerful, but the father and son of the master and Zhu Wei looked at each other and snorted coldly and then went back to their respective rooms, leaving Dengfeng and Qingding standing awkwardly with each other.

Dengfeng patted Qingding on the shoulder and said that this is an old problem, you just get used to it, and then took Qingding to the kitchen and started to work on dinner. Although cultivators can not eat, the desire of the tongue is not something that can be broken.

The children of poor families have long been in charge, and Qingding feels that his cooking skills are good, but when he sees Dengfeng's knife skills, he still silently chooses to make a fire.

It's easy to get bored when working, Qingding is at an age when he can't keep his mouth shut, and he began to ask curiously about Dengfeng, and the topic came to Zhu Yan at once, Qingding saw that there was no figure outside the kitchen, and asked Dengfeng in a low voice: "Senior brother, why did that little fat man say that Zhu Yan is a wild seed, and he also mentioned the master, and why is the relationship between Zhu Wei and the master so bad, aren't they father and son?"

Dengfeng's hand chopping vegetables paused, and the next moment the frequency of cutting vegetables accelerated wildly, and he sneered: "Did that little fat man say that, Master, it seems that I haven't repaired him enough." ”

Looking at Dengfeng like this, Qingding swallowed his saliva, and prayed in his heart that the little fat man would ask for more blessings.

"Senior brother, if you don't ask about this matter, I will also mention it to you, since you want to know, it will save me time to find it. Alas, in fact, the master and Zhu Wei are both poor people, one longs for fatherly love, and the other wants to be a good father, but he doesn't want to evoke sad memories and chooses to escape. Dengfeng sighed and began to tell Qingding about the matter.

Qingding's master's surname is Zhu, his name is Ge, and he is the younger brother of the current sect master, and he is also the strongest person in the Qingshan Hall except for the current sect master.

However, the master also has the troubles of the master, the master has an only son named Zhu Yan, who is one or two years younger than Qingding, the master is a mortal who cannot cultivate, and he has been weak and sick since he was a child, Zhu Ge fell out with his eldest brother in order to marry her, and the eldest brother hoped that Zhu Ge would find a suitable partner to be a partner, and sent many respected elders in the palace to persuade him, but Zhu Ge finally chose to follow his inner judgment.

In this way, the master broke up with his eldest brother, and took the master to travel outside, but there were unforeseen circumstances, the master had a difficult birth, the situation was very dangerous, and it had reached the most critical moment to protect the size, the master decided to give up the child in order to protect the master, every time the master would listen to the master's words, but this time the master refused to be particularly resolute, the master knew her physical condition, even if she hid this time, she didn't know how many years to live, the master didn't want to be alone after she left, and she didn't want the master to live like this again, In order to renew her life, enter those dangerous secret places to collect medicines, and Shi Niang is a mother, even if she hasn't seen the child yet, she is also a mother, maternal love never needs a reason, maternal love has always been the greatest emotion.

At that time, the master looked at his wife, who was lying on the bed sweating profusely and enduring pain, and cried for the first time, he was always the one who stood in front of her to shelter from the wind and rain, but in the end he could not do anything.

"Xianggong, Feng'er is very glad to meet you, Feng'er will never forget the first time we met, that night, I was reading in the house, I heard a sound outside the house, opened the window to see, under the moonlight you sat on the maple tree outside my house, the maple leaves slowly fell from the tree, fell on your shoulder, you looked at the moon, the moonlight also shone on you, at that moment I felt as if I saw a fairy, you noticed me, smiled politely at me, and asked if it disturbed me. I was so nervous that I couldn't even say anything to answer, you think I have an opinion, and you smile freely, saying that I affected the girl, sorry. Flying towards the sky, in fact, I wanted to say that it doesn't matter, I hope you stay, I just want to look at you quietly like that, because you are the scenery I saw for the first time in which secluded pavilion, from the first time I met, it was imprinted in my heart, my health was very poor, my parents isolated me from the outside world for me to grow up healthily, and I could only look at this maple tree in a daze when I was bored. ”

The sweat on Shi Niang's forehead became more and more, but her face became more and more calm and pale, as if she had been paralyzed by pain. The master kept wiping the sweat of the master with a towel, and the tears in the corners of his eyes did not stop.

"I regretted not sleeping that night, and I was annoyed that I scared you away, but the next night you came again, and brought several picture albums, which were full of beautiful scenery outside the house, all of which were places that I longed for. You said that you were abrupt last night, I hope the girl doesn't blame, these landscape albums were painted by you, maybe the painting is not very good, your level is limited, I hope I don't mind. I don't mind it, it's the best gift I've ever received, I'm looking at the album, you're sitting on the maple tree admiring the moon, I don't know if I'm looking at the album, I'm looking at you, I'm really greedy, but I really want to be so greedy all the time. ”

Speaking of this, Shi Niang's breath began to gradually rapid, and with Shi Niang's snort with all her might, the midwife shouted that the child came out. But Shi Niang's strength was also completely lost at that moment, leaving only a little breath of nothingness.

Shi Niang's eyes were full of tears, she raised her hand with the last strength to touch the master's face, the master hurriedly helped her catch it, pressed against her face, and felt the familiar body temperature above, but it gradually became cold.

"Brother Ge, Feng'er actually wanted to ask you why you appeared in my yard."

The master looked at the pale face of the master, held the teacher's hand tightly, smiled gently, and choked up: "Feng'er, in fact, the first time we met was the day before the Zhongyuan Festival, that night was the first time I spent the Zhongyuan Festival in the mortal world, I was lost in the bustling and bustling night market, you were rarely taken out by your parents to enjoy the night market, listening to the storyteller telling stories, I walked in a daze, you were happy to see, we just hit each other back to back along the sea of people, your sachet fell, you lowered your head and said sorry, and then ran away like a little rabbit." I picked up the sachet and stood dumbfounded, thinking about whether I was so terrible. Then I went to your house, ready to quietly return the sachet, just in time to see you make a wish to the moon, hoping that your parents would not be troubled by their illness again, hoping that they could live the rest of the day happily, hoping to see the scenery of the mountains and rivers, hoping that they would ....... You said that I was the scenery imprinted in your memory, but you are not the most beautiful picture I have seen all over the mountains and rivers. ”

Speaking of this, the master's voice was filled with the sound of crying.

The master touched the master's face and said happily: "Then this is the first brother Ge to like Feng'er, Feng'er is so happy, Feng'er is really happy......

Looking at the happy smile on the face of the master who seemed to be asleep, the endless tears in the corners of her eyes, and holding the hand that the master was unwilling to let go, the master cried loudly, he remembered what the master said to him when she was pregnant, if Feng'er is not there in the future, there will be children accompanying Brother Ge, just like Feng'er accompanying Brother Ge, the master was busy saying don't talk nonsense, their family will always be together, together......

Dengfeng's voice sadly dropped the last character, Qingding had already cried, Dengfeng didn't say anything, touched Qingding's head, and said: "I was a child I saw when the master and the master were traveling, the master and the master treated me as his own, I was only six years old at the time, I didn't know what death was, I thought the master was asleep, as long as the next day she would get up and go to the street with me to listen to the story, eat sugar gourds, watch shadow puppet plays......"

Qingding looked at Dengfeng with tearful eyes, and saw that the corners of Dengfeng's eyes were also moist.

"Zhu Wei looks very much like the master's wife, so every time the master sees Zhu Wei, he will reminisce about the past, sad and sad, so that he will start to unconsciously avoid Zhu Wei, especially when Zhu Wei is three years old, he begins to be sensible, and he can feel his father's evasion, so the master simply entrusts Zhu Wei and me back to the sect. The sect master is a good uncle, although he is still angry with the master, but he did not snub Zhu Wei because of the relationship between Zhu Wei's mother, on the contrary, he loves him very much, like a son, and he can't even bear to blame, the sect master should have been married a long time ago at this age, but he was all pushed by him, the sect master is true for the development of the sect diligently, but this is not for Zhu Wei. ”。

Dengfeng continued: "Actually, Zhu Wei is very sensible, most of the troubles caused by them are not pleasing to the eye, this has to mention a current situation in the sect, I won't talk about it first, you will feel it in the future, you just need to know that Zhu Wei has grown up very healthy under the teaching of the sect master, but he has caused the unhappiness of some people in the sect and spread his life experience, so that there will be the kind of passerby that the junior brother encounters." In fact, both of them can't get over their respective hurdles. ”

After Dengfeng finished speaking, the dishes were also cooked, and he began to divide the dishes into bowls and send them to the master.
