master

There is a peach forest three miles outside the city, and the mountain temple tavern is in the depths of the peach forest. The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom. The master likes it very much, and he wants to come to this peach forest with a story. But the master never wanted to talk to me about anything other than studying.

It was early in the morning, and there were only a few guests in the tavern. I looked at Xiao Er, who was setting up a wine jar at the counter. Nodding his head at me, I smiled slightly.

Walking up to the second floor, there is only one room on the second floor of the tavern. It looks like a place where the shopkeeper and the boss rest, but in fact this room has a secret door. The real Xuanji Pavilion headquarters is right underneath.

When the secret door opens, it is the entrance to the staircase, who would have thought! The famous Xuanji Pavilion turned out to be a tavern, and it was still underground. Oil lamps burned on both sides of the tunnel, and flames flickered in the lamps.

When you walk to the end of the tunnel, you can see a gate that seems to be completely embedded in the stone wall. I kicked a stone to death and hit the mechanism that opened the door. "Xiao Lingxi, do you remember to come and see as a teacher!"

I raised my foot and approached, and found that the master was still so handsome, only a little more worried between my eyebrows. The basement was built very large, and there was a council chamber in the courtyard with three entrances. There is also a large courtyard with three entrances behind the council hall, and the master stays in the courtyard behind it on weekdays.

"Master, all these years, the apprentices have come to see you, but I have never seen you wait at the door! Is the sun coming out in the west today? Or is it going to rain? ”

When the master heard my last words, his brow furrowed. "Lingxi, let's go to the courtyard behind and sit down and talk!" I nodded in agreement.

The master was wearing a azure cloud brocade shirt, and the placket was connected with the same color material, which was tattooed with cloud patterns. At the wide cuffs, a few messy purple bamboo leaves are embroidered.

"Why are you staring at the clothes of the teacher, do you want cloud brocade?" I touched my nose, "Not really!" There are not many cloud brocades even in the palace, but when they come to the master, they say it so casually. The apprentice just thinks that the embroidery girl who makes clothes for the master is very powerful. ”

The master reached out to touch my head, but I tilted my head to dodge. "Master, the apprentice is sixteen years old, not a child anymore. Don't always touch my head, and don't call me Xiaolingxi! ”

The master put down his empty hand, shook his head and continued to walk forward. The master is as beautiful as a fairy, and he looks better when he laughs, and in my eyes, even the moment the flowers bloom, he can't compare to the master's smile.

But the master rarely laughs! I sat opposite the master at a wooden table, and the master made tea with his own hands. "Lingxi, if one day, the world is turbulent. You will encounter misfortune, there will be a day when you can't hold on, don't forget that the master is still behind you, and the entire Xuanji Pavilion is behind you. ”

The teacup in my hand accidentally knocked over. Tea was spilled on the table, and I didn't care about it. Grabbed the master's embroidery, "Master, what do you know?" Why do you say such things? Is it the father and brother who will have an accident? ”

The master helped me up and nodded my forehead. "Over the years, I have taught you to read, practice martial arts, make weapons, configure medicine, and do business...... You only have the best martial arts and the most important thing in making weapons, the most important of these two is your calm personality, you are out today, but you have lost all your temperament! ”

"Master, what you said is related to the safety of my family! The apprentice lost his temper for a while, and asked the master not to blame. The master stroked the sleeve that I had pulled, "It's still early, you go to the back to study the weapon!" Don't overthink it, what should come will always come. ”

"Yes, the master and apprentice know! My father sent a letter a few days ago, hoping that they would return safely! "When it was dusk, the master called me out." Master, why didn't you tell me your name? "I asked this question many times, and the master always laughed it off. When I was a child, I couldn't understand my master's smile, but later I realized that that smile contained too many things that I couldn't afford.
