Chapter 82: Crashing into the Brimstone Stone
"Give up... yes, it's up to me. For so many years, I have wondered if he misses me or blames me, I dare not say that I don't regret it, I regret it... At that time, it was also the dream beast that had a problem, but it was not as serious as it is now, and I finally gave him this dream of mine. ”
"Master..."Nian Tong sighed, "I... I don't understand feelings, but I think in the dream, you and Yuheng are really very affectionate... What about Yuheng, did he return to Mingjiao later? Have you ever been in touch again after all these years? ”
"No, I didn't. Twenty years, we haven't been in touch again. He told me that if I left, I would never have any contact with me again in this life... He didn't understand me, he didn't understand my affection for him and my responsibility, maybe he was too young, and I was angry, because in twenty years, there was only one big war, and I had a quick glimpse with him. Now I am the elder of Huashan, and he is also the protector of the Ming Sect, and we have long since disappeared. ”
Yan Yan's eyes were already ruddy, and the tip of his nose was already red, the wind and snow in Huashan were too prosperous after all.
"The rivers and lakes are so big, how can they not be seen. Definitely. Nian Tong said, "Even if the situation is incompatible, even if fate arranges, if you really miss him, how can you not do it?" ”
Yan Yan seemed to think that what she said made sense, and after thinking about it carefully, he changed his words and said, "You keep saying that it is a big truth, what about yourself?" ”
"Me?" Nian Tong pointed at himself, "I..."
"Before you went down the mountain, I said, if you like Yun Weichen, you can do what you want to do, but Weichen, this child, already has someone you like, and you don't take it to heart, which affects your cultivation, I am very pleased. Thinking about it later, you are young after all, maybe I misunderstood your appreciation and affection for Weichen. Now... The master wants to ask you, are you and that Tang Xi just a simple master-apprentice relationship? ”
Yan Yan mentioned Tang Xi, Nian Tong was stunned for a while, and unconsciously hesitated for a while before saying, "I have a master-apprentice relationship with him, why do you ask me and him?" ”
"He's very different to you." Yan Yan paused and said, "You are also for him." ”
"Is it..."Nian Tong looked up in confusion, "Master, I learned in the Sansheng Pill that there is another person I like, although I know that I have a good impression of that person, but in the usual relationship, it is... I didn't taste the feeling of being tempted, and I wasn't even as good as I was with Senior Brother Yun at the beginning... I don't know what I like or don't like. ”
Yan Yan smiled, as if looking at himself twenty years ago: "Do what you want to do, you just told me." ”
Nian Tong raised his head and looked at Yan Yan with a glittering smile in his eyes, as if he understood something, but he seemed to be even more confused.
Yan Yan looked out and said, "Tang Xi is waiting for you outside." ”
Nian Tong looked back, Tang Xi crossed his arms, leaned against the pillar, and looked at the sky.
"Master, I came to bid you farewell." Nian Tong turned around and said again.
Yan Yan asked: "What's the matter, is there something going on outside?" ”
Nian Tong nodded: "There is also news from Kunlun that the Red Sleeve Villa sent people to garrison Kunlun, and the daughter of the King of Kunlun was captured by them. ”
"Yes... I also heard the news the other day. Then you go quickly, Niantong, and remember what I said to you. ”
"Hmm."
"Be careful on the road, too."
"I see." Niantong hugged Yan Yan, her body was thin, but she had carried the wind and snow of one person in the past twenty years, and she suddenly felt very sorry for her.
Yan Yan looked at her back as she walked out of Zhenyue Palace, silent, and the moment she turned around, the figure she had missed for twenty years suddenly appeared in her mind.
She smiled softly and shook her head as if self-deprecating.
Niantong was still in a happy mood, got off the carriage from Huashan to Jianshun City, and went to Kunlun Mountain on a high road, flat land, waterways, and mountain peaks to cross, and I don't know if Jisheng and Qu still have Qin Sang or not, what is the situation.
While waiting for the groom to come, Tang Xi was holding a grass stalk on the side, Nian Tong tilted his head and looked at him for a long time, and the words that Master Yan Yan said to her suddenly popped up in his mind.
She is really very different from Tang Xi, right? She actually knew it, and she knew it in her heart, but they were masters and apprentices, and Tang Xi was so good to her, she should repay him wholeheartedly with the gift of an apprentice.
She pursed her lips and turned her head.
Tang Xi laughed twice in his heart. The little apprentice has been frowning and stunned since he looked at him, not knowing what he was thinking, although he didn't hear much about what she said to Yan Yan, but since she came out, her expression was weird, and she couldn't explain clearly.
The carriage came, the coachman was a kind and kind old man, Nian Tong was worried at first that he would not be able to bear the long journey, but he said that he had been driving on this road for many years, and it was very safe, so they didn't have to remember, Nian Tong was relieved.
Sitting in the carriage with Tang Xi, Niantong felt quite relaxed, sometimes thinking about it, with the master by his side, even if he had to face a difficult problem, it seemed that it was suddenly less painful.
However, Nian Tong was still angry with Tang Xi on the surface, he hid the fact that he went to the dream realm alone, and she hadn't forgiven him yet, so she kept leaning her head against the wall of the carriage and looked at the scenery outside the curtain in a daze.
"Niantong?"
She heard Tang Xi call her flatteringly.
She answered in a muffled voice.
"You're still angry? They haven't spoken to me all the way. Tang Xi tugged at her sleeve.
This move made Niantong's heart tremble slightly, it was the details, he was usually used to being public, and such a small and gentle movement made her a little moved.
"Nope." She answered.
"Hmm." Tang Xi smiled and nodded, "It's really gone, you can hang a soy sauce bottle with a pouting mouth." ”
Nian Tong heard that this was ridicule, and glared at him viciously.
Tang Xi said: "Open the curtain, it's windy outside, be careful of cold." ”
Nian Tong glanced at him: "So gentle, do you have any thoughts?" ”
"Don't be angry... Hey, auntie, little apprentice, I can't do anything if you're angry. Tang Xi pretended to be pitiful.
"Hmph. Isn't there anything I can do when you're angry? Nian Tong muttered.
"What did you say?" Tang Xi pretended not to hear clearly.
Niantong turned his head away and said, "I forgive you." ”
Tang Xi got a surprise and said, "Really? ”
"Fake." Nian Tong held back the smile on the corner of his mouth and raised his head arrogantly.
"I find that you are living more and more real in front of me."
Tang Xi's sudden words made Niantong a little stunned, he said, she is living more and more really, as if it is like this. She only dared to be so presumptuous when she was in front of him. She usually lives very carefully, for fear of taking the wrong step, but in front of him just now, it seems... Tsundere once?
Niantong coughed, turned around and didn't speak.
There are some things that she can see clearly, but there are some things that she feels that she will never understand, and maybe, she will not dare to understand.
Nian Tong was still thinking about what demons and monsters she might encounter along the way, but the past two days have been quite stable, the road is smooth, not even a bandit mountain king or anything, she is used to a thrilling life, she is so calm all of a sudden, but she is a little at a loss, and she stays in the carriage all day long, and Nian Tong feels that she is going to have a problem.
On the third day, we were already approaching our destination, but something was wrong with the carriage.
At that time, Niantong was reading the play book to Tang Xi, and suddenly felt that the carriage seemed to have something to do, and his body unconsciously fell forward, but fortunately, Tang Xi quickly helped her, although the carriage fell, but there was no big problem.
Tang Xi got out of the carriage and saw the coachman squatting there to check the broken wheels, with a sad look.
Tang Xi asked, "Old man, what did the carriage touch?" ”
"Well, it's the rock." The coachman said to the back piece that it was not big or not, and said that it was not too small.
Tang Xi walked over, bent down, picked up the stone, rubbed it on his hand repeatedly, and smelled the smell in his hand again, his face suddenly became solemn.
Nian Tong noticed that Tang Xi's face was a little wrong, walked over, and asked, "What's wrong, is there something wrong with this stone?" ”
"The stone was plastered with a layer of sulfur." Tang Xi spoke coldly.
"That..."
Tang Xi pointed to the wheel: "The wheel is made of wood. ”
Nian Tong frowned: "Wood and sulfur... Rubbing violently at high speeds, creating sparks, and... Explode? ”
Tang Xi's eyes were cold: "Yes, explosion." ”
"Then we... How okay. ”
Tang Xi thought for a while, walked to the old coachman who sighed, and asked, "Is there a sulfur seller in this place?" ”
"There is no brimstone in this place, there is no brimstone, only... By the way, aren't you going to Kunlun? There is a mountain in Kunlun, and the mountain is rich in sulfur. ”
"So." Tang Xi nodded, took out a money bag from his arms and handed it to the old coachman, "Then, you can take this money, it is your fare, and the cost of repairing this wheel." ”
Flattered, the old coachman took the money bag and said, "No, haven't you been delivered to your destination yet?" ”
Nian Tong walked up and said: "Now that the carriage is broken, there is no way, and there are mountains and waterways in front, the carriage is too inconvenient, why don't you turn back here, we can go by ourselves." ”
The old coachman then thanked him and left.
Nian Tong and Tang Xi also continued to move forward.
"Do you think this was an accident?" Tang Xi asked.
Nian Tong shook his head: "What do you think?" ”
"I'm the same as you think. However, whether it is Red Sleeves Villa or not is still up for debate. Tang Xi said.
"Hmm."
"Tired or not? There's still a long way to go. Tang Xi said.
Nian Tong stretched his waist: "I'm not tired, it's tiring to sit in the carriage, I've been sitting for two days, my back hurts, it's better to move my muscles and bones." ”
