Chapter 62: Zhongli Appears

With the help of Shang Bai's high sense of smell, he quickly found a suitable place to draw water. What I was looking for was a clear spring, far away from where I lived. The location of the spring is very secluded, not only far from the building, but also surrounded by red red wood.

Before Ye Tian and the four of them came to the spring, they all leaned over, picked up a piece of spring water, and drank it all happily. The sweet and icy spring water enters the mouth, giving people infinite comfort. Throwing down the bucket and scooping up a bucket of spring water, the four of them didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery around the clear spring and left quickly.

The reminder of the water tank in the courtyard is not very large, Ye Tian roughly calculated, these four buckets of spring water can fill the water tank. Four buckets of spring water had just been poured into the tank, spilling a little. However, in the next moment, the saturated water tank suddenly gurgled. When the sound disappeared, Ye Tian and the four of them were surprised to find that the spring water in the water tank had completely disappeared, and the water tank was not poured into the spring water, and the surface was not even damp.

"What's going on?" asked Long Qin, who opened his mouth wide in surprise and leaned on top of the water tank.

"If the water tank is broken, let me see. Li Shuo pulled away the dragon seedling lying on the water tank, stretched out his thick arms, and lifted the water tank up at once. After looking at it, there was no sign of damage under the water tank, and even the place where the water tank was placed did not show any water exposed.

"Is it haunted? I've heard ......?"

"Don't talk about it. Seeing that Long Qin wanted to come up with those boring ghost stories and make them up, Ye Tian interrupted him unhappily. After staring at the water tank for a long time, Ye Tian seemed to understand something, "Since it's not full, let's continue." ”

"Well, isn't it just fetching water, I must fill it up today. You don't have an opinion, do you?"

While supporting Ye Tian's idea, Li Shuo stretched out his thick right arm and showed the protruding muscles in front of Long Yang. Long Yang, who was already lazy, wanted to give up, but seeing Li Shuo's strong muscles, he swallowed his saliva and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

So, the four of them returned to Naze Qingquan again to fetch water. However, when the spring water is poured into the tank, within a few seconds, the spring water evaporates as if it were the first time. Seeing the spring disappear again, Ye Tian was even more sure of what he thought in his heart, but he didn't tell the three of them, but let them continue to fetch water.

In this way, the water was fed back and forth countless times, and the spring disappeared countless times. Gradually, everyone began to feel tired. When I came to Qingquan for the last time, it was already late, a bright moon had already hung in the air, and the whole heaven and earth had dimmed, and there was only a glimmer of light under the light of the bright moon.

"I can't do it anymore, I can't walk anymore. Let's go, don't wait for me. "Long Yang is already tired enough, although he has the physical strength of a ground-level martial artist, but I don't know how many times I go back and forth, even if it is a person, I will feel tired.

"If you want to be lazy, give me up, the task is not completed, and I have to help you clean the room. Li Shuo carried the bucket, walked to the side of the dragon seedling, and plucked the dragon seedling with his foot. But Long Yang pretended to sleep and ignored Li Shuo.

Seeing that Li Shuo didn't have any heart and kept playing with the dragon seedlings, Ye Tian couldn't help laughing, put down the bucket in his hand, and stepped forward, "Brother Li, don't mess with him." That tank won't be filled today. ”

"Won't get filled? why?"

"This one...... If I'm not mistaken, the tank must have been tampered with. If you think about it, isn't the task of filling such a small tank easy? ”

Shang Bai also seemed to understand, put the bucket in his hand on the side, sat beside Long Qin, raised his head and said to Ye Tian, "Brother Ye said this, I remembered that I heard others mention it before, the Sword Sect will give a water tank to the disciples and let them fill it. If it is impossible to complete the real water injection, then the water tank is designed with a formation, and the formation must be broken. ”

"What? You know why you didn't say it earlier, so I suffered so much. Li Shuo felt that he had been tricked, and he suddenly became angry, and couldn't help but throw away the bucket, sit on the ground, and complain.

Seeing that everyone sat down, Ye Tian couldn't help but sit on the ground as well, "Actually, it's nothing, isn't this just enough to train us? Besides, isn't it a great pleasure to be able to enjoy such a moonscape in such a quiet place?" As he spoke, Ye Tian had already raised his head, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, and his body gradually lay down.

At the same time, Shang Bai also slowly lay down and stared at Mingyue. Li Shuo, who was still angry, felt the tranquility of the bright moon, and his restless heart calmed down, lying between Shang Bai and Long Yang.

"Yes, it's nice to be able to see such a beautiful view, especially with a few like-minded friends. Shang Bai also sighed.

"Before, I always thought that the moon in my village was the most beautiful. Now I have to admit that this moon is really beautiful. It's like a poem. ”

"What? You can still chant poetry?" Long Yang, who was lazy and pretending to be asleep, couldn't help but open his eyes and questioned in shock when he heard Li Shuo say that he could chant poetry.

"There is no world!" Li Shuo glanced at Long Yang, who didn't believe in him, and then said, "I'm a big cultural person in the village, and it's not a matter of being able to catch me when I write poetry. I relied on this talent to conquer Lan'er. ”

"Cut, but also a big cultural person. Or, you can show everyone a hand, so that everyone can also admire the poetry of the great cultural people. Oops, it hurts, I was wrong. ”

Long Yang was not convinced at all, and kept singing against Li Shuo. As soon as he was halfway through speaking, he felt a hand grab his right arm. When he reacted, Long Yang knew that this hand belonged to Li Shuo. In the next moment, Li Shuo's hand was strong, and suddenly Long Yang felt a burst of pain, and begged for mercy screaming.

Seeing that Long Yang also tasted the bitterness, Li Shuo let go of his hand, snorted coldly, and did not continue to speak,

Gradually, the four of them fell silent, all staring at the bright moon in mid-air. The bright moonlight poured on everyone's cheeks, and it was so warm. The breeze blew, except for Ye Tian, the other three people all let out a gentle breathing sound, and they all stepped into a sweet dream.

From the previous life to today, several months have passed. And for Ye Tian in the past few months, he didn't know whether it was good or bad. In the course of a few months, I encountered something I had never thought of in my life. Everything made Ye Tian change a lot. His mind changed, his worldview changed, his temper and character changed......

Although many have changed, Ye Tian's heart has not changed. His heart to protect his relatives and friends has not changed, his heart to pursue his father Zhongli has not changed, and his heart to avenge Ye Tian's parents in this life has not changed......

Just like the bright moon in the sky, there may be times when it is cloudy and sunny, but it is always a bright and sunny moon, which changes for a while, but cannot change a lifetime. And Ye Tian is also like this, his personality, appearance, and thoughts have changed, but he can't change his heart to work hard to make a promise for his sight.

The breeze blew slowly, bringing a trace of cool air to the mountain peaks, penetrating the thin and bright moonlight, and caressing the four of Ye Tian. The cool air ingested the hearts of the four people, and gradually calmed the restless hearts of the four people from the world. Soon, the four of them lay on the edge of the clear spring and fell into a sweet dream.

The same bright moon, but refracted different lights. When the light of the bright moon poured in front of the door of the dean's residence in the Reverse Sword Academy, it seemed so heavy,

As with every night, no matter what the weather, there was always an old man with a white beard who came to a secret room in the dean's quarters with three pillars of incense. Directly in front of this room was a large table, on which dozens of spiritual seats were neatly placed. The spiritual throne is written on it, "The spiritual position of the beloved disciple, the master stands with white eyebrows." ”

The old man was already very old, and he staggered to the spiritual seat, lit the incense in his hand, stuck it on the table, and closed his eyes. Under the candlelight, the old man's white eyebrows were tightly gathered, his expression looked very painful, and there were glittering tears in the corners of his eyes.

A fresh breeze blew into the room from outside the door, the candles kept swaying under the caress of the breeze, and the rickety figure of the old man reflected on the wall kept stretching and shortening.

"Who?" the old man suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp gaze was reflected in his eyes, and then he quickly walked out of the house. The old man's speed at this time was like two people compared to before, and it was not commensurate with old age at all.

Running outside the house, the old man carefully observed everywhere, but found no figure, and couldn't help but think in his heart, "Am I really old?" The old man laughed at himself, and prepared to turn and enter the room.

At this moment, a black shadow slowly fell from mid-air. The old man believed that he was not wrong this time, and there must be someone behind him. With the aura of a martial artist, he quickly turned around. When the attack was about to be launched, by the light of the moon, the old man saw the person who was coming, and hurriedly stopped.

"White-eyed Sword Emperor, aren't you welcome me?" If Ye Tian was here at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize this person who spoke at a glance. Because this person is Ye Tian's father who has been looking for but has no clues, discarding his family, Zhongli.

"It turned out to be Zhongli. I don't know what you're doing here?" The old man is none other than the Baimei Sword Emperor, the head of the Reverse Sword Academy

's eyebrows have long confirmed his identity.

Zhongli didn't respond to the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor at first, but walked to the remote room, picked up the remaining incense on the table, lit it, stuck it on the table, and bowed to the dozens of spirit seats. "Fifty-six spiritual seats in total, it seems that your beloved disciples are all here. ”

"Hmph!" the White-eyed Sword Emperor snorted coldly, turned his body around, and turned his back to Zhongli, "It was supposed to be fifty-seven." ”

"Haha, are you blaming me for saving you in the first place? I thought you would be grateful to me, but I didn't expect you to hate me like this, it seems that I am not a good person. ”

"Help me, you know how painful it is to watch your apprentice die in front of you while you survive. Every night, as soon as I lay in bed, I closed my eyes and could see the fifty-six bloodstained faces. If you save me, how can I have such a chance to suffer. ”

Two years ago, the Reverse Sword Academy, like the other three, was thriving. However, two years ago, the Sword Sect received a mission to go to the Western Glen Lynn Empire to negotiate with the Dark God Cult. And the person who was the negotiator that time was the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor. The White Eyebrow Sword Emperor wanted to take his disciples to the Glen Lin Empire to see the world, so he selected fifty-six disciples in the Reverse Sword Academy, and this time the disciples were almost all disciples cultivated by the Reverse Sword Academy, and one of them was the biological daughter of the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor.

When the Dark God Sect arrived and the negotiations were over, the Dark God Sect did not hesitate to cause the two high-level forces to start a war and take action against the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor. In the end, fifty-six disciples sacrificed their young lives one after another in order to cover the departure of their master, the Baimei Sword Emperor. However, the White-eyed Sword Emperor escaped because of Zhongli's help.

The loss of such a beloved apprentice once, and even his favorite daughter, was a great blow to the white-eyed Sword Emperor who survived. As soon as he returned to the Sword Sect, the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor closed the door and did not see anyone, and in the end, it was the sect master who came forward to call the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor out of the room. However, in front of the responsible disciples and sect masters of the Sword Sect, the Baimei Sword Emperor made an oath that all the remaining disciples of the Reverse Sword Academy would be disbanded and assigned to other academies, and no more disciples would be recruited.

Perhaps, the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor was really scared, he didn't want to see a disciple die in front of him again, and he didn't want to taste that pain a second time.

"There is a saying, the dead rest in peace, and the living are self-reliant. Bai Mei, if you continue to suffer like this, do you think your fifty-six disciples who left to cover you will be happy?, will they live in peace over there?" Zhongli walked up to the White Mei Sword Emperor and said heavily.

The White-Eyed Sword Emperor was silent for a few seconds, and Zhongli's question made it impossible for him to answer. "I heard that you joined the Dark Alliance and became the master of the East Hall of the Dark Alliance. Why did you join the Dark Alliance, why did you fall into the darkness?"

"Darkness? Yes, the Dark Alliance is indeed dark in the eyes of you high-ranking forces. But our Dark Alliance is not what you think in the eyes of outsiders. First, we will not interfere in the affairs of the government, and second, we will not bully the people. The only thing we can do is to maintain it, to maintain the light in our hearts. Only by standing in the dark can we truly see what light is. ”

"I haven't seen you for a few years, but your mouth has become able to speak. I don't think you're here today just for me and talking this nonsense. In the eyes of the White-eyed Sword Emperor, Zhongli's explanation was a kind of sophistry.

When the Dark Alliance was first established, everyone didn't pay much attention to it. However, in just a few years, the strength of the Dark Alliance has increased greatly, no less than any high-level force. At this time, those high-level forces found out that after the strength of the Dark Alliance expanded, they opposed the high-level forces almost everywhere. The Dark Alliance soon became a thorn in the side of every high-level force, because of the wide branch and the unclear location of the headquarters, whether those high-level forces had a chance to eradicate them at one time.

Zhongli left the Zhong family, and a year later, he joined the Dark Alliance, and was favored by the leader of the Dark Alliance, and became the master of the East Hall.

"I really didn't come today to catch up with you. Actually, I have something to ask for this time. In your new recruitment this year, there is a young man named Ye Tian, he is the son of my old man, I want you to take him as an apprentice after a year, and let him become your apprentice. Zhongli also stopped talking with the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor and told the true purpose of coming this time.

"You know that I won't accept apprentices, so I won't agree. Besides, if that young man has something to do with you, you are afraid that I will tell the sect. ”

As soon as the White Eyebrow Sword Emperor finished speaking, Zhongli suddenly raised his right hand and made a gesture of not speaking. After a few seconds, Zhongli suddenly spoke, "It seems that I can't stay too long, your Sword Sect's Sect Master seems to be sensing my position." After speaking, Zhongli turned around and prepared to leave, just took a few steps, Zhongli suddenly turned around, "By the way, don't forget that the young man's name is Ye Tian, and he regrets it." ”

"Hey, stop!" The White Eyebrow Sword Emperor wanted to stop Zhongli, but Zhongli didn't care about anything, flew out directly, and quickly disappeared into the courtyard. Seeing that Zhongli had already left, the White-eyed Sword Emperor took a vicious slash, "You're really bold, aren't you afraid to tell the sect about the relationship between Ye Tian and you?" Ye Tian is it? I just won't accept this apprentice, see what you can do with me!"

Standing in place and saying a few words to himself in the direction of Zhongli's disappearance, the White-eyed Sword Emperor returned to the house and continued to pray for his deceased apprentice
