I heard her murmur again: "My mother-in-law seems to have changed in the past few days, and she told me that she finally doesn't have to worry about me being alone in this world and having no one to accompany her, so she can do what she does with peace of mind." I didn't know what she was going to do, so I was worried all the time. Yesterday, my mother-in-law suddenly disappeared, and I have been looking for her until now, but I haven't found her, what happened? ”

She looked at me, tears on the verge of tears in her almond eyes.

Every time I see her, I always have a strong desire to protect her, I really want to protect her, she is really important to me.

I hesitated for a moment, then slowly said to her, "Actually, your mother-in-law went to a far place, a very far place. ”

"Where?"

Jing Hengdi looked at me and asked.

She obviously didn't believe that her mother-in-law would leave her far away, so she shook her head and said, "You lied to me, how could my mother-in-law leave me here alone?" The person she has always been most worried about is me, and even if she goes to do something, she will not take me there. Please, tell me, what's going on? ”

She looked at me nervously.

I don't know why, looking at her sparkling eyes, I don't think I have the courage to tell her the news that her mother-in-law is dead.

So I turned my face, looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and whispered: "Your mother-in-law is fine, she is really going to a distant place now." Actually, she doesn't want to leave you behind, but you also know that your mother-in-law has been lonely for so many years, and now she has finally found her husband and her daughter, of course she has to be with her husband and daughter. ”

"What do you say, my mother-in-law found her husband and daughter, and my mother-in-law never mentioned it to me."

"Really, her husband is actually my master, and they only recently met. But your mother-in-law can't bear to see you alone, so she has been hesitant all along, and now she doesn't find out that I like you very much. ”

With that, I peeked at her and saw that her face was crimson.

"She found out that I was very good to you, and she felt that you could rest assured that you would leave it to me to take care of, so she left quietly. Actually, it's that simple, do you understand what's going on? ”

After listening to me, she opened her eyes and looked at me, as if to see if what I said was true or not.

I also looked at her with wide eyes, after all, I didn't want her to have any regrets in her heart, and I didn't want her to get involved in those vendettas and those grievances and feelings.

I knew that she was a very simple girl, she was far away from this world, she had lived in the mountains for so long, and what she was thinking about was nothing more than some very simple things, so I hugged her and comforted her: "You have to understand one thing, your mother-in-law has dedicated more than ten years to you, and she wants to live a little bit of her own life in the next few days, don't you agree?" ”

"Of course not."

Jing Hengdi hurriedly shook his head, waved his hand and said, "I understand, don't worry, I know why my mother-in-law didn't say goodbye to me, she was afraid that I would be sad when I said goodbye to me." I really understand that I will take good care of myself in the future. ”

She said these words to me in a low voice, and her face was as red as a cloud.

I knew that she suddenly heard my confession to her, so she was very ashamed.

I don't know why, from the first time I saw her, I thought she was different.

I used to treat her as a female ghost, and I used to treat her as a fairy, and I used to treat her as a witch, but now I know that she is her, she is a Jing Heng flute, a unique Jing Heng flute in the world.

So, I helped her to sit down in her house in the back mountain, and said to her, "Don't worry, I will really take good care of you from now on." I, Ji Kaihan, have always said the same thing, and I will never deceive people. Whoever deceives is ......"

I thought about it, then pointed to myself and said, "Puppy, what do you think?" ”

She snorted and laughed, and the way she laughed was so beautiful that it was as beautiful as the rhododendrons all over the mountains.

She bowed her head and said nothing.

I know that girls generally don't say yes or no, and when they don't say anything, it proves that she has agreed from the bottom of her heart, so I was very happy, took her hand and said to her: "I will really take good care of you in the future, please believe me." ”

I could see that the flute was also very moved, she had lived in the mountains for so long, and there was no one around except her mother-in-law to accompany her.

Now it is rare for her to accept me as an outsider, I saw her charming expression, saw her clear eyes, and my heart was very emotional for a while, thank God for letting me come to Zhongnan Mountain to learn art, and I can also meet such a beautiful, so moving and so kind woman.

After comforting Hengdi, I said to her: "Hengdi, don't worry, I will come to see you often in the future, and I will come to help you, and I will definitely take good care of you." ”

"What if you want to leave Zhongnan Mountain one day?"

Jing Hengdi raised his head and looked at me, and his eyes involuntarily showed a hint of worry.

I took her hand and said to her, "Don't worry, since I promised you to take care of you for the rest of my life, I will take care of you forever." If I want to leave Zhongnan Mountain one day, I will definitely take you away, will you go with me? ”

Hengdi heard me ask her this, but she didn't answer me directly.

She lowered her head, hesitated for a long time, as if she was thinking about something, and said slowly: "I can't answer you now, I will answer you later." ”

I thought she said this because the two of us didn't know each other too well, so I said to her, "Don't worry, I won't force you to do something you don't want to do." Whatever you want to do, I've got your back. ”

She nodded with tears in her eyes.

After pacifying the transverse flute, it was already late to return to Zhongnan Mountain, and the entire Zhongnan Mountain was immersed in grief.

After all, Master is gone, and the next few days will be Uncle Shi's enthronement ceremony, and many people will come to congratulate him.

There is a rule in Zhongnan Mountain, that is, all the enthronement ceremonies of the head must be carried out in an auspicious month, and according to this year, August should be an auspicious month, so there are still two or three months before August, and I can get along with the transverse flute in these two or three months.

By the time Uncle Shi ascends the throne, the entire Zhongnan Mountain will be very busy.

In the days that followed, I often secretly went to the back mountain to visit the transverse flute.

Although she is often sad when she is gone, her mother-in-law is always sad, but whenever she sees me, she immediately becomes energetic.

I feed rabbits, chickens, ducks with her, grow vegetables with her, eat the vegetables she stir-fried for me, cook for me with her, and then watch the flowers bloom and fall together, and the clouds roll up, that feeling is really the most wonderful thing in the world.

I think the luckiest thing in my life is to meet the transverse flute, and the happiest time I have ever had in my life is this time, but I never dreamed that this time would be so short.

One day when I was returning from the back mountain, I suddenly bumped into a man, and in the moonlight I saw that person was looking at me with cold eyes.

I took a closer look and found that the person was the little junior sister.

I couldn't help but be very strange and asked, "Little junior sister, why are you here?" ”

"Senior brother, this sentence should be asked by me, why are you here? You've been running to the back mountains recently, what is there about the back mountains that makes you nostalgic? ”

When I heard her ask me this, I couldn't answer for a while, but she laughed coldly.

"Senior brother, should you continue to lie to me that there is an emotional entanglement between the head of the Tomb Sect and our head of the sect, that's why you have this thing about the ghost of the back mountain, and then you will let me look for it with you. You're talking about all of this for martial arts, isn't it? ”

She looked at me and smiled coldly.

I didn't know what to say for a moment, but it wasn't.

The junior sister is so smart, of course she understands.

After she heard about the matter of the Cold Sword Palace and our Zhongnan Sect, how could she believe anything else.

She naturally understood that there was no Tomb Sect in the world, so I had to smile reluctantly and said to her, "Senior sister, I was just talking to you before, don't take it to heart." ”

"Yes, you just told me that I was playing, and you took me to the back mountain to make me feel foggy, do you think I don't know what you plan in your heart? Senior brother, do you think that my Nangong Musang is so easy to bully? ”

With that, she looked up at me with a hint of hatred in her eyes.

I had no choice but to say to her, "Senior sister, I really didn't mean to deceive you before. If you're really mad at me, then I'll give you a few shots, okay? You fight as you like, I promise not to fight back. ”

She suddenly burst into tears, and she said while crying, "Senior brother, don't you understand what kind of heart I have for you? Why are you hiding from me from that woman? Why? ”

"What are you talking about?"

When I heard her say this, I glanced at her and said a little uncomfortably.

"Do you think I don't know? I've been following you lately and found out that you went to the back mountain to find a woman. The woman looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the woman looked younger than me, and she looked delicate and weak, and she was not a martial artist at first glance. I don't know what you like about her, brother? Is she better than me? ”

After hearing my sister's question, I didn't know how to answer her for a while.

I can make her hate me in her heart now, all because of those things before, but this matter has nothing to do with the flute.

She looked at me and said coldly, "Senior brother, you tell me if the misty heart is scattered for me?" ”

I hurriedly shook my head and said, "Senior sister, don't get me wrong, she doesn't know martial arts at all." You also said that she doesn't look like a person in the martial arts, so how could she poison you? Hengdi is really a scheming woman, she doesn't understand anything, you must not misunderstand her. ”

"Senior brother, you really like her, don't you?"

All of a sudden, she asked me this.

When she asked me this, I didn't know how to answer for a while.

But I immediately pointed to the moon and said to her very seriously, "Yes, I do like the flute very much, and the flute is my favorite woman." ”

"But why do you like her, senior brother? What the hell is good about her? Is she more beautiful than me? Or does she have something else that attracts you? Am I really not as good-looking as her? ”

Hearing the words of Senior Sister Mu Sang, I shook my head and said to her: "In fact, liking a person can't be measured by beauty or not, maybe in the eyes of others, you are more beautiful than the transverse flute, but in my mind Brother Heng is the only one, that feeling is really amazing, I can't understand it, can you understand?" ”

"I can't understand it, I just know that you lied to me, senior brother. Why? Why do you want to like her? Don't you know what I mean for you? ”

Hearing Nangong Musang say this, I was stunned for a moment, and after a long time, I said slowly: "Senior sister, what are you talking about?" The two of us are just brothers and sisters. ”

Brother, I guessed you would say that. Do you ask yourself if we are really just brothers and sisters? Have I always been better to you than other senior brothers, and I have always taken good care of you? But how did you treat me, and now that you are getting along with another woman behind my back, how can you do this to me? How can you say that to me, I am also the third lady of the Nangong family, and what about her? She's nothing, she's just a witch, anyway, I'm going to tell Uncle Shi about this, and I must let Uncle Shi punish you. ”

With that, she turned and walked out.

After hearing her say this, I didn't like her heart at first, but now I am getting a little bored, but fortunately I chose the woman I chose with my own heart, and until now I think that I have not made the slightest mistake.

If I choose the third lady of the Nangong family, my junior sister Nangong Musang, I believe that the situation will not be like this.

Although Nangong Musang, a girl, looks very simple on the surface, but in fact, I think she is too possessive, and she is not like a transverse flute at all.

So I said to her, "Whatever you say to Uncle Shi, I believe Uncle Shi can understand me." In short, I only like the transverse flute alone in my life, and I won't like any girl anymore, no matter what you say, it's useless. ”

"Senior brother, you have to be responsible for what you said today, I didn't expect you to do this to me."

After saying that, she walked out hatefully.

Seeing her run away, watching her back slowly disappear in the moonlight, I had a vague sense of foreboding in my heart.

Sure enough, the next day, Uncle Shi called me over.

After Uncle Shi called me over, he glanced at me and said to me in a serious tone, "Your senior sister Nangong came to look for me yesterday. ”

I raised my head and looked at Uncle Shi squarely, and said to him: "Uncle Shi, I know what Senior Sister Nangong came to you to say to you, but my heart has always been very firm, and I will only like Heng Di alone in my life." No matter what others say, it will not change. If Uncle Shi thinks it's wrong for me to like the transverse flute, then I don't have anything to say. ”

Who knew that after Uncle Shi heard my words, he sighed slowly and said: "Only the word love in the world hurts people the most." There's nothing wrong with you liking the flute girl, I know that the flute girl is brought up by Leng Yunsu, and there is nothing wrong with it. In short, since you like someone, you have to be good to her, don't let her down, do you understand? ”

I never dreamed that my uncle would say such a thing to me.

I was stunned for a moment, looked at her and said in surprise: "Uncle Shi, I thought you would stop my relationship with her?" ”

"Why should I stop your feelings? Although I have become a Taoist priest, I have always known that the feelings in the world are very beautiful and great, otherwise my senior brother would not have died for martyrdom. And Leng Yunsu will not be unable to see it for the sake of love. ”

At this, he let out a sigh one after another.

I looked at Uncle Shi and didn't know why I had a very strange feeling in my heart, that feeling told me that Uncle Shi must have known Leng Yunsu before, otherwise he wouldn't be so emotionally in line with Leng Yunsu's feelings.

Maybe there is an unknown secret between Uncle Shi and Leng Yunsu.

Of course, all this is just my own thoughts.

Uncle Shi continued to say slowly: "I have already persuaded your junior sister, you can also talk to your junior sister, emotional matters cannot be forced." Everything else in the world can be changed, but there is no way to change the emotional one. Alright, you go down. ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi."

I said yes and walked out cheerfully, my heart happy.

I knew for a long time that my sister would denounce me to my uncle, but I didn't expect my uncle to be so open-minded and open-minded, and he would agree to my love with Hengdi so easily, not to mention how happy I am in my heart.

After I decided, I wanted to tell Hengdi about it, let her know my intentions, and let her know that the love between the two of us has been blessed by many people.

So, I went out of the mountain gate and hurried to the back mountain.

Who knows when I arrived at the back mountain, but found that there was no one in the cottage, where did the transverse flute go?

A strange feeling suddenly spread to my heart, could it be that she was in danger?

I thought of my sister again, and I became even more worried.

"Transverse flute, transverse flute, transverse flute."

I shouted her name in the hope of getting a response, but after a long time of screaming and no one responded to me, I couldn't help but get more and more nervous.

Just when I was very nervous, someone suddenly said behind me, "Senior brother, I knew you would come, but you finally came." ”

I looked back and found that it was indeed my sister.

I was immediately very nervous, and I stepped forward to shake her hard, and said, "What happened to the flute, what happened to you?" If you hurt the transverse flute, I will never let you go for the rest of my life. ”

When Senior Sister Musang heard me say this, there was a hint of despair in her eyes.

She looked at me, her eyes became ugly, and said, "Senior brother, what are you talking about?" ”

"What do I say, you know in your own heart, since you will go to sue Uncle Shi, you will definitely come to hurt Hengdi. I knew you were going to hurt the flute, but I didn't expect you to blatantly hurt her, what did you do with the flute? What happened to her? ”

As I spoke, I shook Senior Sister Musang's body vigorously, wishing that she would immediately conjure the transverse flute for me.

Senior Sister Musang seemed to be greatly stimulated, she looked at me, tears welled up in her eyes, and said, "I didn't expect that I would be this kind of person in your mind. ”

"Aren't you?"

I interrupted her rudely and said to her, "If the flute has any three long and two short, I will definitely let you pay for your life." If you don't believe it, I, Ji Kaihan, swear to heaven here, if anyone hurts Jing Hengdi, I will make her die a good death. ”

After finishing speaking, I looked at Senior Sister Musang stubbornly.

Senior Sister Musang's face was completely covered with tears, and she looked at me without saying a word.

And at this time, someone suddenly shouted behind me: "Sorry for the cold." ”

I looked back and saw that the person standing behind me turned out to be a transverse flute.

When the flute walked up to me, I saw that her arm was injured and she was wrapped in a handkerchief, and quickly asked, "Are you okay?" Did my sister hurt you? ”

Jing Hengdi shook his head and said slowly: "Sympathy, you misunderstood Miss Musang." In fact, I was bitten by a snake just now, and I accidentally fell off the cliff, and it was the Musang girl who saved me just now. If it weren't for Miss Musang saving me, you wouldn't be able to see me now, and you're really wrong about Miss Musang. ”

"Really?"

After listening to this, I glanced at Senior Sister Musang with some surprise.

"Yes, that's true, if it hadn't been for Miss Musang to help me bandage me just now and help me up from under the cliff, maybe I would have died by now."

After hearing her say this, I glanced at Senior Sister Musang, but when I saw Senior Sister Musang's eyes were full of tears, she didn't say a word, obviously suffering a lot of grievances.

I blamed myself for a moment, so I said to her, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister Musang. I really didn't mean to, just now I really thought it was you trying to hurt the flute, I know it was my mistake, please forgive me. ”

Senior Sister Mu Sang glanced at me, and then at Jing Hengdi, she suddenly laughed, and soon there was a bit of madness in the laughter.

She said slowly: "Yes, Senior Brother Ji, I have always really liked you, I really like you, I like you very much, and I have always liked you alone, I hope that one day I can marry you as a wife, I think one day you will accommodate me." I think so, but until today I don't know that I was wrong, and it was outrageously wrong, I know that you will not like me in this life, you will only like one person is the transverse flute girl, am I right? ”

When I heard her say this, I felt even more guilty.

For a girl who likes herself, I seem to be so afraid to hurt her, I am really too wrong, so I shouted "junior sister".

"Okay, you don't have to say anything."

Mu Sang glanced at me, looked at Hengdi with some determination, and said to her: "Miss Hengdi, I am very glad that my senior brother was able to find a good girl like you, I am really glad for my senior brother, and I am also very glad for you to be able to find a good man like my senior brother." I know that my brother has never said love easily in his life, once he falls in love with someone, it will be a lifetime, I hope you can all cherish each other well, I will go first. ”

After saying that, she walked away slowly.

At that moment, I really wanted to catch up and say "I'm sorry" to her.

But I knew I couldn't do that, and if I did, it would give her hope.

Once she has hope in her heart, maybe there will be more entanglements between us, just like Master and Master.

Some things are doomed, and there is simply no way to solve them.

So instead of trying to fix this, I'm going to let it go, and that's a good thing for everybody.

The flute looked at me, she didn't say anything, I knew she understood me in that moment.

And I know that no one has ever understood me better than her.

The flute looked at me and said to me.

If there is only one woman in this world who understands me, this person is the transverse flute.

I glanced at her, looked at the wound on her hand, and said to her, "Hengdi, are you all right, why did you go down the mountain alone?" You're so worried, what's going on? ”

When I asked her, the tears flowed like beads of broken thread.

After crying for a long, long time, she suddenly said, "Actually, I just want to see my mother-in-law." ”

"What did you say?"

When I heard the flute say this, the whole person stiffened on the spot like wood, and I couldn't speak for a long time when I looked at the flute.

"Yes, I just wanted to go see my mother-in-law, I know what's going on, and I know you're really lying to me. I know you're lying to me for my good, and I know my mother-in-law she'll never be able to come back to me. ”

At this, her tears flowed again.

I hugged her tightly in my arms and asked her, "When did you find out?" Did you know it from start to finish? ”

Hengdi shook his head and said, "I didn't know it at first, but after thinking about it carefully, I always felt that my mother-in-law would not say goodbye." It wasn't until one day that I accidentally met a disciple of the Zhongnan sect in the back mountain, and I heard them say that your master was dead, and I realized that my mother-in-law was your master, and she was also dead, so I wanted to see her for the last time. ”

"Silly girl, if you want to see her, tell me, I will take you, why do you want to go down the mountain alone? Do you know that this is very dangerous, but fortunately, my sister saved you just now, otherwise you would have made me worry about you. ”

I said, hugging her in my arms.

The flute rested its head on me, which made me feel very grounded.

She said to me slowly: "Don't worry, I will never be again." I just want to send my mother-in-law, and now that I've sent my mother-in-law, I already listen to you for everything, okay? ”

"Okay." My heart was filled with a warmth that I had never felt before.

"But your junior sister ......"

She said this and sighed.

I said to her, "My sister is a very smart and sensible woman, although she is a little bit rude and willful, but I know that she has always understood what she is doing. Now that she knows that I only like you alone, then she will definitely not continue to bother, and I believe that she will get better. ”

After hearing me say this, she nodded slowly.

I carried Jing Hengdi home, and after placing her, I returned to the Zhongnan faction.

The next day, I suddenly heard a lot of discussions from the senior brother in the faction, saying that the little junior sister suddenly asked the master to resign and go home for some reason.

After listening to it, I felt a sense of loss in my heart.

In fact, if Senior Sister Nangong hadn't been for me, how could she suddenly leave and leave.

She didn't come to say goodbye to me when she left, which shows that she was actually very sad in her heart.

But none of this mattered, after all, maybe the best choice was for me and her.

I have the flute, and she has what she wants to pursue, and she can let go of this pain, which is a good thing for both of us.

After sending my sister away, I often visited the transverse flute.

Hengdi was originally a woman who didn't smile much, but after being with me for a long time, maybe she was infected by me, her smile became more and more, and being with her really made me feel that everything in the world is beautiful, the sky is blue, the flowers are fragrant, the birds are cute, and none of them are bad.

But I never dreamed that something misfortune was looming over us.

I never dreamed that things would come to this point.

Soon it was August, and August 15 was the day when my master was in charge, and all the heads of all the major sects in the world sent congratulatory gifts, and many people came to watch the ceremony in person.

And in the few days before Master took over as the head of the house, I had to help with a lot of guests, so I didn't have much time to visit the flute.

There were no less than 100 posts at Uncle Shi's enthronement ceremony this time, and all the heads who received the posts came, but I don't know why there were also a lot of people who couldn't say what place they were.

One of the people I received was a woman, dressed in black.

I just look at her slender posture, obviously it is a woman, she is wearing a hat on her head, and she can't see her face at all, in fact, it is also a very common thing to wear a hat on the martial arts rivers and lakes.

If someone has a disability on their face or is unwilling to see someone, they often don't show their true faces, and this is the privacy of fellow martial artists, and I can't expose it.

It's just that I don't know why I always feel a little strange when I see that woman, because our Zhongnan faction has always been a major sect comparable to Shaolin and Wudang in the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, why did a little woman dare to come to participate in the master's enthronement ceremony.

Out of curiosity, I couldn't help but look at the woman a few more times, and who knew that at this time two masters came forward to salute the woman.

I know the two heads, one is the head of the Emei faction, Wuzhen Shitai, and the other is the head of the Snow Mountain faction, He Huanzi.

When they saw the woman, they immediately went up and saluted her.

The head of the Emei faction, Master Wuzhen, said: "Female crown, how are you doing lately? ”

The woman said, "All is well, thanks to the two of you." ”

He Huanzi hurriedly said, "Last time, thank you for saving my disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect. If it weren't for the female crown to come to the rescue, maybe my disciples would have been in danger. ”

The Wuzhen Master of the Emei faction also hurriedly said: "Yes, the old body is also grateful for the grace of the female crown. Last time, if it wasn't for the female crown who saw the unevenness and pulled out a knife to help, we might have encountered danger too. ”

At this point, the two of them glanced at each other and saluted to the female crown.

The female crown hurriedly helped them up and said to them: "You don't have to be polite, both of you are the head of the same faction, and they are both righteous people in the martial arts, and it is also a blessing to help the two." ”

The woman said these words very politely, but she said them well
