Chapter 246: The Last Night
After walking out of the main hall of the pavilion and separating from Lu Li, Ye Xingchen's eyes looked at the hut not far away.
It was getting late, but the hut was still brightly lit, looking at the familiar hut that could not be more familiar, a slightly chubby middle-aged figure appeared in Ye Xingchen's mind.
Without hesitation, the footsteps slowly stepped out, and walked quickly towards the ordinary hut.
............
Pushing open the door and stepping into the room he had entered for the first time since leaving the temple ten years ago, the memories of the past could not help but flood into his heart.
"Teacher. ”
Looking at the vicissitudes of life in the night light outside the window, Ye Xingchen shouted respectfully, with a trace of choking in his tone.
"Stinky boy, do you finally want to be a teacher?" Zhou Lun turned around, so he said slightly angrily.
The vicissitudes of time still haven't made this lively middle-aged man change in any way, he is very ordinary, but in the eyes of the disciples of the Shadow Sword Pavilion, he will always be a true hero.
"Teacher, I'm ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Lun's laughter: "I have heard about you, good boy, even the disciple of the Sword Star Divine Pavilion can be defeated, worthy of being my Zhou Lun's disciple, hahaha!"
Night Star's eyes were a little moist, he should have been as happy as his teacher today, because he not only won the title of the first of all swords for the Shadow Sword Pavilion, but also got the quota to become a disciple of the Sword Star Divine Pavilion.
But even so, at this time, he couldn't laugh for half a minute, but felt a great pain in his heart, as if he would lose one of the most important things after today.
Zhou Lun walked slowly to his side, stretched out a big hand and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Stinky boy, you just want to go to the wider world and embark on the road of becoming stronger, and it's not like you'll never see the teacher, besides, why are you crying when a man stands up to the sky?"
Hearing this, Night Xingchen couldn't hold back any longer, and crashed into his arms, tears streaming out of his eyes.
In front of him, he will always be a child.
The tears of the young man in his arms stained his robe, and he looked up, tears rolling out of his cloudy eyes.
In this way, the master and apprentice hugged each other for a long time.
At a certain moment, Zhou Lun finally wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and asked in a somewhat choked voice: "Stinky boy, tell me honestly as a teacher, how long will it take for you to come back?"
This question hit Ye Xingchen's heart hard, come back? He didn't know, he really didn't know when he would be able to come back, or even not at all.
After being silent for a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind, raised his head and said very seriously: "Teacher, give me five years, and I will definitely come to see you once in five years." ”
Five years was the limit of what he could do, because he didn't know if he would be able to come back, but he had made a promise to his teacher that he would have to come back to see him once in five years anyway.
"Well, that's it. Zhou Lun smiled bitterly, that time the two of them were only separated for half a month, he became like a child, what would he become if it was five years later?
He knew it, because it was not only him who missed him as well, but also himself.
The relationship between the master and apprentice is undoubtedly greater than everything, even if it is a half-moon separation, it will take away the tears of longing, so he knows exactly what will become of the two when they meet again in five years.
Gently pushing him away from his arms, Zhou Lun took out a pale yellow storage bag from somewhere and handed it to him: "If you want to leave, as your teacher, you naturally can't let you leave empty-handed." Here are some of the crystals and crystals that I have learned all my life, take them and go, although these things are not of great use to me, but they will be of some use to you in the future. ”
Ye Xingchen's hands trembled a little and took it, this was something that the teacher gave him when he left, and he couldn't help but accept it.
But when I heard the next sentence, I couldn't help but laugh.
"You are not too young, Lu Li's kid has already married two wives, if you don't bring one back for the teacher in five years, I won't spare you!"
"Good. Ye Xingchen smiled and nodded, he should be twenty-two years old in five years, and he can't lose to Senior Brother no matter how he says.
"That's all that needs to be said, take a good rest, that Elder Gu will come to pick you up early tomorrow morning. After speaking, Zhou Lun turned around and stopped talking.
Night Xingchen knew that this was because he didn't want to talk to himself anymore, otherwise he would be reluctant to leave tomorrow.
But knowing this, Night Star still bypassed and came to him.
Seeing this, Zhou Lun hurriedly pretended to be slightly angry and said, "Didn't the teacher let you go? Why don't you leave this stinky boy?"
Ye Xingchen didn't answer, but took out a shining silver-white token from the storage bag and handed it to Zhou Lun, and said with an extremely serious face: "Teacher, you are my teacher and more like my father." In the future, if an outsider dares to come to the Shadow Sword Pavilion to stir up trouble, you will take out this token, and when you see it, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, he will not dare to touch you. ”
Zhou Lun took the token with a little daze, only to see that there was a shining and bright moon on the token, exuding endless majesty and gorgeous atmosphere.
He had never seen such a token before, not even in ancient books, but he knew that it was not a mortal thing!
"Good. Zhou Lun accepted the token, and said very seriously: "But stinky boy, in five years, whether you are dead or alive, you have to roll back to Lao Tzu, do you understand?"
Night Star nodded fiercely, and then 'fluttered' to his knees, and kowtowed to him three times.
You can not kneel to the sky or to the ground, but your parents and teachers have to kneel.
Zhou Lun didn't do anything to stop him, he just closed his eyes tightly, he knew that if Ye Xingchen didn't leave him, he wouldn't let him go tomorrow anyway.
After three knocks, the night stars left.
After he left, Zhou Lun opened his eyes again, but at this time, he finally couldn't help but cry again, in the past ten years, he has almost regarded Ye Xingchen as his own son, and now he is about to leave, his heart hurts like a knife.
It's just that he doesn't want to show this side in front of him.
.......................................
Returning to his cabin, looking at every familiar corner, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Old friend, I didn't expect to be separated again after just half a month, but even I don't know when I will come back." ”
This hut was the place where Zhou Lun arranged for himself ten years ago, and now he naturally has no less affection for it, and it is more like his home than the Haoyue Temple.
"If you want to open a little, if you want to become stronger, go to a more important world, this place is no longer suitable for you to stay. ”
The voice of Haoyue came from his mind, and the night star also nodded, as it said, if you want to become stronger, you have to go to a more important world, and birds must grow up and fly high after all.
"Haoyue, do you say that the Lord of the Yan Hall really won't accept favors that day? If I promise to help her do something, will she help me get rid of the slave mark on my body?" After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked again.
"Don't think about it, there's only one way to get her to help you, and that's to get her and make her your woman. ”
"Besides, even if your grandfather is willing to make her a cow and a horse for hundreds of years, it doesn't necessarily mean that she will help you. ”
The words made the corners of Ye Xingchen's mouth twitch a few times, how could this Tianyan Hall Lord have such a strange character? Could it be that he has lived for too long?
"As I said a long time ago, only she can forcibly remove the slave mark from you, and I don't know if you want to fight for it. ”
"It's not that I don't want to. Ye Xingchen smiled bitterly, and said: "You haven't known who I am after more than ten years by my side? What man would not be interested in that kind of suffocating fairy, let alone my words." ”
"You're still a little self-aware. Haoyue's tone gradually turned cold.
"......" Ye Xingchen laughed dryly, "But she is the hall master of the Tianyan Hall Lord, one of the five major temples, which means that she is the same generation as my grandfather, how can you let me chase her?"
Originally, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, but every time he thought of the difference between the two generations, he completely dispelled this idea.
"Do you think she's old?" Haoyue asked.
At the same time, somewhere in Ye Xingchen's mind, a cold killing intent flashed in the eyes of a peerless woman, and the extremely cold aura seemed to be able to instantly turn the entire realm of Fancheng into nothingness.
"Not really. Night Star shook his head, age was just a number in his peerless countenance.
Then he lowered his voice and said, "Just in case, I mean, if she succeeds, then how will she face my grandfather?"
This sentence made Haoyue silent for a while, indeed, it really never thought about this question, if this guy really succeeded, then the Lord of the Yan Palace was originally a person of the same generation as his grandfather, wouldn't his identity change in an instant?
"Tell him I'll kill him with my own hands, with that old thing in Nightfall!"
A cold and piercing voice came, and Haoyue hurriedly opened the topic and said, "It's not too late for you to think about these in the future, compared to these, are you willing to be a lifelong slave to the beast god in twenty years?"
"That's absolutely not good!" Ye Xingchen hurriedly shook his head, it was better to kill him directly than to make him a slave, he would rather die and he would never allow his dignity to be trampled on by others, even if it was a holy beast!
"That's right, get some rest. Tomorrow you will go to the Sword Star Divine Pavilion, and when you get there, you will know what a genius is. ”
"Hmm. Nightstar nodded.
Walked to the small bed and lay down, thinking to himself that tonight may be his last night in the Shadow Sword Pavilion, right?
Ten years of memories, I just hope it will remain here forever, waiting for the day he returns.
After a long time, his eyes gradually closed, and the boy finally fell asleep.
Outside the cottage, the night is quiet and starry. No one knows how long this farewell will be......
