A few hours later, after three rounds of wine, the cups and plates were in disarray.

Lan Jiang held the squire and sent him and his daughter out of the court with difficulty, this was the first time she had seen the squire drunk.

As Ouyang Xu's entourage before his death, the squire has always been silent. After getting drunk, if the two of them are judged, they will open their mouths and shut up to recover Jiangdong and lead the troubled times.

At first, Lan Jiang echoed it, but then no one paid attention to him anymore, but he still talked endlessly, and it became even worse, and it simply evolved into a repeater, not caring at all about the disgusting gaze of his daughter next to him.

Then Lan Jiang returned home, and in the blink of an eye, Dongfang Mu and Ouyang Xiao were already asleep.

This night, Jing Ru stayed in the main room in the grass house, the main room was empty in the past, this is the room left by Lanjiang to the deceased husband, and the portrait of Ouyang Xu is hung in the center of the wall. Tonight, Lan Jiang specially built a wooden bed for this life-saving benefactor.

Dongfang Mu also slept alone in the side room, which is Lanjiang's room.

Lan Jiang came to Ouyang Xiao and his younger brother Ouyang He's room, and the three of them were crammed into a bed.

For a long time, the brothers slept soundly, but Lan Jiang quietly stepped out of bed and came to the court.

The pale moonlight rode the sassy autumn wind, caressing Lan Jiang's lowered eyes. Fallen leaves on the ground rustle in the wind.

Thinking about it in a few hours, Ouyang Xiao will embark on a distant path of cultivation, the love of her life, the eldest son who passed away two years ago, and now she is by her side and shares life and death with her, should stay away. She couldn't sleep.

She is reluctant, and reluctant, this trip is to fulfill her father's will, even if it is all kinds of colic, how can she stop it. I can only weave a thick scarf overnight, and winter is coming soon, as a token of appreciation. Say goodbye to the troubled times from now on, and who knows how long it will take to meet next time.

Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps behind him.

"Ouyang Xiao told me about the honorable husband, and I hope you will mourn. ”

It turned out to be Jing Ru, holding the white beard hanging down on his chest, and approached slowly.

"Xie Xianda. The kindness of the first reaches will never be forgotten. ”

Lan Jiang turned around, clenched his hands into fists, and bowed to Jing Ru.

"No thanks. The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. But war should be a man's business, and women and children should not be implicated. ”

"Tomorrow will depart, why doesn't Xianda fall asleep so late?"

"The autumn breeze is cool, the moon is in the sky, the residual fragrance between the teeth, and the smell of wheat is overflowing, it is a pity to fall asleep on such a night. Jing Ru raised his right hand, waved it to the sky, and then to the earth, and said in a subdued voice.

The next morning, Dongfang Mu walked out of the room with sleepy eyes. found that the master and Lan Jiang were sitting in front of the court, and it turned out that the two of them had not slept all night.

Then Ouyang Xiao opened the door energetically, and his father's trident was already on his back.

Lan Jiang made hot soup for the three of them and saw them off. She tried to say more and do more, so that she could delay her son's departure from home, even for a minute or a second.

The mother and son will eventually turn into a back that is constantly watching.

Before leaving, Lan Jiang held back his tears and held Jing Ru's hands tightly.

"Please, take care of my child. ”

Jing Ru took a step back and bowed deeply towards Lan Jiang.

"You said yesterday that the meaning of life is to protect, and since I have accepted Ouyang Xiao as a disciple, I will definitely protect him with my life. ”

Before leaving, Jing Ru took out eight charms from his bag, and ordered the two disciples to place them in the eight corners outside the thatched hut, and sat in the center of the octagonal by himself.

"I have set up a Taoist eight-palace barrier on this grass house, and no evil person with an immoral heart can approach your abode. ”

After the two thanked each other, Jing Ru took Ouyang Xiao and Dongfang Mu on the journey of cultivation. The first stop is located in Huashan, one of the five mountains in Jinyang and Chang'an.
