Chapter 5: Last Words

Taiyi is close to the sky, and even the mountains are connected to the sea.

The white clouds look back, and the blue mist enters to see nothing.

The peaks in the field change, and the clouds and sunshines are different.

If you want to stay with someone, ask the woodcutter across the water.

This is a description of the beautiful scenery of Zhongnan Mountain, which is indeed as written in the poem.

"Chief Wang Xiaodao, are you still going to rest after this meeting?" An old voice came from the courtyard.

"Uncle Lin, I was just about to fall asleep and met two friends from Zhongnan Mountain, so I brought them over to meet you," Wang Ye said as he walked towards the middle of the courtyard.

There was a long silence in the courtyard, and no words were coming out, Lin'er and Xinyu were planning to leave, and it seemed that the arrival of their senior sister and brother was not welcome.

"Well, I don't know what's wrong with Uncle Shi tonight, I'm usually very kind, whoever comes will be summoned, okay, don't talk about it, I'll take you to rest!" Wang also said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, we just came according to what the master left, and we didn't come to see anyone?" Xinyu said softly, not caring too much.

"Wait, come in!" A few people were just about to leave, but voices came from the courtyard again.

Xin Yu Lin'er and the two nodded at each other, preparing to enter with Wang Yedao.

"Wang Ye Daoist go and rest! Just let the two of them in. ”

"Uh... All right! Wang Yedao touched the back of his head and didn't know why, he still wanted to take the opportunity to ask some questions, but it seemed that there was no hope: "You guys go in!" I'll go first, and I'll see you soon. With that, he turned and left.

"Come in!"

The two of them entered in response.

"Lin Lin'er has seen the Taoist."

"Lin Xinyu has seen the Taoist."

The two of them bowed to the Taoist at the same time.

"Well, all right, sit down! You must be wondering, why didn't I speak just now, and now I want to see you again, right? The person who catches his eye is the same as his master before, he is gray-haired, but he takes care of it meticulously.

The two sat cross-legged and nodded slightly.

"Actually, I know the two of you, and I know the purpose of the two of you." Although the old man was gray-haired, he was full of energy, and his voice was deafening: "You are here for your master's business?" ”

Xinyu and Lin'er glanced at each other and did not speak. For unknown things, it is better to listen quietly, otherwise if the Taoist chief on the opposite side is not right with his master, then he will lose a lot of words.

"Hehe, you don't have to be so vigilant, speaking of which, you should call me uncle, your master is my senior brother, and I am your own uncle." The old man smiled with satisfaction as he saw the two of them so guarded.

"Uncle Shi"

"Uncle Shi"

The two of them listened to the person sitting opposite each other turned out to be their uncle, although they had never heard of the master, but no one talked nonsense about this relationship, and no one used it to blaspheme the inheritance of Taoism.

"Well, you guys are very good, although we are meeting for the first time, it can be seen that they are good apprentices of senior brothers, much stronger than my unsuccessful apprentices." Lin'er's cheap uncle praised.

"Uncle Shi, do you know where our master has gone?" Xinyu hurriedly asked, the purpose of her coming here was to find her master, and when she heard that it was her uncle who was sitting cross-legged opposite, she hurriedly asked.

The master's status in his mind is still different from Lin'er, he has been an orphan since he was a child, and it was the master who picked him up, if it weren't for the master, he might have been a white bone on the side of the road, and the master was more like his father. Lin'er still has her own parents, and she only has a master. Ten years, ten years without seeing her master, what does it mean to a little girl who was only 7 years old at the time, it is a family affection that is gained and lost, it is that no one will cover her body with the quilt that she kicked off the bed for herself every dark night, and it is the expectation of 3,600 days and nights.

"Yes! Uncle, where is our master? Why did he let us come ten years later in the alchemy furnace? What about the masters? Is the master waiting for us in the alchemy furnace? Lin'er also asked, his life was saved by the master, and half of his childhood was the figure of the master, although he did not worship the master at that time, but Lin'er should remember it, he regarded it as his master, the master taught himself for a short time, but one day as a teacher and a father for life. The master is also very important in Lin'er's heart.

"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere." Uncle Lin got up and left the thatched hut as he spoke.

Outside the house, Uncle Lin casually threw out a small sword, and there was no spell, he was good at the wind, hanging in the air, and after saying "let's go", he took the lead in breaking through the air.

Seeing this, Lin'er and Xinyu also took out the sword given by the master and followed closely.

Seeing this, Uncle Lin, who was walking with the sword, nodded with satisfaction, "When Senior Brother was away, they didn't waste time. ”

Half an hour later, at the peak of the alchemy furnace, the three of them quietly appeared there, looking at the gossip furnace in front of them.

"I can't tell you about your master, so I can only let him tell it himself." Uncle Lin stood in front of the gossip furnace for a long time before he spoke.

"Xinyu, Lin'er, I'm glad to see you again, this meeting may be the last time you see your teacher. Ten years, the master did not mean not to see you, but also to see you, people have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny. The master can't be by your side forever. "Familiar pictures, familiar characters, familiar smiling faces, still so kind.

"Master."

"Master."

Both of them let out a sad cry and knelt deeply on the ground.

"You may already know this, don't cry, children, although you have not been with you for a long time, you are all proud of your master. Regardless of whether you are a famous town in the future or live in seclusion, you will always be a good apprentice of the master. ”

"Xinyu, the master knows that it is difficult for you to take care of Lin'er for you, and the master also thought about handing you over to Senior Brother Lin to take care of, but the master finally chose to give up and hand you over to the care of Senior Brother, you will definitely ask about my whereabouts and affect my cultivation, so I can only be ruthless...

"Master, it's not difficult, it's not difficult at all." Xinyu's face was full of tears, looking at the picture in front of her and muttering.

"Lin'er, the master knows that you listen to your senior sister the most. Because your sister has taken care of you since you were a child, and when you were a baby, your parents took care of you when they put you in the hands of your sister. You have grown up and become a man, a man can't let his senior sister suffer a little 1 grievance or a little injury, you have to protect your senior sister, you know? The master has refined an elixir in the alchemy furnace, and where your uncle is, your uncle will hand it to you at that time" The master has a loving gaze and a stern gaze. This was their last experience.

"Master, I will definitely protect my senior sister in the future and not let my senior sister be hurt at all, unless my body collapses." Lin'er swore to the master, even if the master didn't say it, Lin'er also knew that Lin'er had always kept it in mind and never dared to forget it.

"The master is leaving, only you are the only concern of the master, now you can see the teacher, the last side, you should not hold a grudge in your heart for the teacher and say goodbye."

The master's voice landed, and the image slowly disappeared.

"Master, master... Don't go! After the master's image disappeared, Xinyu couldn't help but cry anymore.

The scenes of getting along with the master echoed in front of my eyes, "Master, why don't I have a father and mother, but a junior brother does?" ”

"Who's to say no! I'm not here, I'm a master and a father. Is it easy to pull you big me. ”

"Master, master, you see, the snowman that I and my little junior brother built, this is the little junior brother, this is me, and this one is the last one."

"You and Lin'er are both normal, why are the master's hands so long and so thick?"

"That's because Lin'er and I are under the protection of the master, and the master's hand is our haven from the wind."

"Huh. You're a ghostly clever. ”

Everything is vivid, as if it happened yesterday, and time has not passed, but frozen in this moment.

The outstretched hand seemed to grasp it all in his hands, and not let them slip away.

God seemed to feel sad too, and it rained heavily.

Xinyu's tears were mixed with rain, and she couldn't tell them at all.

Lin'er was also very sad, but she didn't howl and cry, tears swirled in her eyes, and she just refused to shed them.

From this moment on, he is a man, he has to hold up a piece of the sky, he can't be weak, he will be strong.

Uncle Lin looked at the sad two and didn't stop it, even though it was pouring rain now. They need to vent, otherwise it will not be good for their health.

For one night, the two did not leave, and finally fainted at the peak of the alchemy furnace.

Looking at the two teachers and nephews who had fainted, Uncle Lin shook his head and sighed, and with a wave of the robe in his hand, the two fainted people swept up and disappeared to the peak.

In the early morning, the two woke up slowly, and they did not feel unwell from the rain. Although it is still sad, life cannot but go on.

"When you wake up, come over for breakfast when you wake up!" Uncle Lin looked at the two who woke up and said.

"Uncle Shi, can you tell us about the master?" Xinyu looked at Uncle Lin and said softly.

"Alright! Since you want to know, then I will tell you. ”

"My brother and I are also children raised by the master, in the troubled times, the master carried a sword to subdue demons and slay demons, picked me and my brother, taught us skills, and taught us to cultivate. My brother and I soon made a name for ourselves in the rivers and lakes, because we were young and vigorous, without scruples, and offended the enemy, and were hunted down, the master in order to protect us, and the enemy died together, and we felt guilty because of the master's death, and there was no contact until ten years ago, the senior brother suddenly found me, saying that the limit was approaching, and I wanted to finally try it to see if I could break through the dead pass, but finally failed, sitting in the gossip furnace. The image you see was preserved by the formation before the senior brother sat down. Uncle Lin said slowly.
