Early morning.

A gap was revealed in the sea of clouds, and the sun poured down eagerly.

In that golden light from the sky to the earth, a man and a sword slowly floated down. Like an abrupt black snowflake, it came to a new day with yesterday's moonlight.

On the moon pot sword.

Lin Futian squinted his eyes slightly, he looked around, only to realize that he had unknowingly slept on the sea of clouds all night. He helplessly held his forehead and smiled self-deprecatingly.

I don't know how I fell asleep last night?

Lin Futian walked down from the Moon Pot Sword gently, his mind moved slightly, and the Moon Pot Sword flew up from mid-air, spun in the air, changed directions, and then fell into the scabbard. Lin Futian walked a few steps, and suddenly found that the senior not far away was looking at him with a strange expression.

Lin Futian walked up to the seniors, said hello to the seniors, and then said, "Seniors, why did you get up so early?"

Senior Gao smiled: "I've lived for so long, and I've seen a lot of people, but it's the first time I've seen an old man like you who can still fall asleep on the sea of clouds at night." The old man smiled, and then pretended to be angry and said, "What's the matter? Am I still too old to feel young? Do you need a reason to get up early?"

Lin Futian rubbed his face, "Senior, I'm not admiring the moon, I'm just looking at the moon." Lin Futian waved his hand and said with a smile.

Senior Gao shook his head and said, "That's it, let's not talk to you naughty boy, if we continue to talk, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to resist the urge to beat you." ”

Lin Futian followed behind the senior and said with a smile: "If you want to beat me, just beat me directly, you don't have to suppress your inner impulse?"

Senior Gao coughed and said, "I'm afraid that it will be bad for my reputation if it goes out." The old man saw that Lin Futian still had something to say, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't talk anymore, it's important to have breakfast." ”

Lin Futian smiled and quickened his steps, walking beside the old man, his hands behind his back. It's the same as the old man.

In this way, the two who got up the earliest walked together, ready to go to breakfast.

On the road.

The old man suddenly remembered something, so he said directly: "The food at home is not enough, you should eat less in the morning." ”

Lin Futian rubbed his chin and said with a smile: "Don't worry, senior, I have a small amount of food." ”

After a while.

Lin Futian summoned the Moon Pot Sword, and the sword was beside him, scraping the stubble of his chin.

The old man glanced at Lin Futian, who began to shave his stubble, and said, "Don't forget to pick up your stubble later, my yard is not for your stubble." ”

Lin Futian's face did not change, and he continued to shave the stubble, but the stubble that fell behind him began to rise slowly, forming a "line" and following behind the two. Lin Futian glanced at the old man with a smile, the corners of the latter's mouth twitched, and he just said, "It's amazing." ”

After breakfast, Lin Futian and the others were ready to say goodbye to the old man and leave the village.

The old man said that there was no banquet in the world, but he still sent a few people to the entrance of the village.

Lin Futian and they stood at the entrance of the village and did not leave for a long time.

The old man wondered, "Don't you want to leave?"

Luo Mei and the others also looked at Lin Futian strangely.

Aren't you in a hurry?

Lin Futian just smiled and said, "The seniors are so willing to give us up?"

The old man smiled and scolded: "If you want to go, you can leave, if you don't go, you won't go, why do you say so much?"

Lin Futian looked at the running figure in the distance and said with a smile: "Wait." ”

The old man also seemed to be aware of it, looked back at Lin Futian, and then smiled slightly.

Good boy, you have more insight into those people than yourself.

Bi Li ran all the way, out of breath, since he heard that Lin Futian and they seemed to be leaving the village, he inquired all the way and ran all the way, and there were still a lot of things he didn't say to the big brother, at least, he had to let himself say goodbye.

He finally saw Lin Futian and them standing at the entrance of the village, and then sighed.

Finally caught up.

Bi Li ran to Lin Futian and them, panting, and didn't know what to say for a while. He crossed his hands, looking a little overwhelmed.

Lin Futian said understandingly: "We will leave today, you must listen to your parents well in the future and study hard." ”

Bi Li nodded vigorously and smiled brightly.

The old man stood beside him, crying and laughing.

Well, the person I've known for a long time is already so reluctant that I ignore even the old man.

Bi Li raised his head, looked at Lin Futian, and said, "When will I be as tall as you?"

Lin Futian rubbed Bi Li's hair with a smile and said with a smile: "Soon, the time will come in the blink of an eye." ”

Bi Li tilted his head and asked suspiciously, "In the blink of an eye?" As he spoke, he blinked his eyes, then looked at himself, then at Lin Futian, and said with a smile: "No." ”

Lin Futian couldn't cry or laugh a little, so he had to say, "Okay, it's actually a few blinks of an eye. ”

Bi Li asked, "How many blinks is that? I really want to grow up quickly, so that I can do a lot of things." ”

Lin Futian replied: "Then you blink more, and you will know later." ”

The old man turned his head away, covered his mouth, and finally held back a laugh.

Luo Mei and the others also couldn't help laughing.

This kid is also interesting.

Lin Futian looked at the sky and felt that it was almost time to go, so he said to Bi Li with a smile: "If there are many things you want to do, you might as well start now, start with small things, step by step, down-to-earth, and finally you will naturally do what you want to do." ”

Bi Li nodded and agreed, "Okay, big brother, I will definitely work hard." ”

Lin Futian said: "Come on, we should also go, so I won't say more, and we will have a chance to talk about it in the future, right?"

Bi Li hummed, then waved his hand, "Goodbye, big brother, I hope you have a smooth sailing on the road." ”

Lin Futian said: "Then borrow your auspicious words." Good bye. ”

Luo Mei and the others also waved goodbye: "Goodbye." ”

The old man and Bi Li waved goodbye to Lin Futian and them, and watched Lin Futian and them go away.

Seeing that Lin Futian and their figures gradually disappeared from sight, the old man looked at Bi Li, who looked reluctant. "Why, it's sad now?" asked the old man.

"No, I just feel like my heart is suddenly empty. Bi Li rubbed his eyes and said.

The old-timer surnamed Gao touched Bi Li's head, looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice: "It's better to grow up slowly, right?"

Bi Li wondered, "Why?"

The old man smiled and replied, "No why." ”

Bi Li was slightly stunned, and then seemed to think of something, and suddenly felt a little sad.

He seemed to know why.

————

The old man and Bi Li returned to their respective homes.

The old man with the surname Gao sat on the stone chair in the garden, his gaze was far-reaching, he sighed, and a pair of wings full of holes suddenly bloomed behind him, trembling slightly.

The old man didn't look back, just looked at his hands and remembered what happened a long, long time ago.

He sighed: "My little Bili, you still have to grow up slowly." ”

The world is too complicated and not as beautiful as you see it to be.

The clouds gradually dispersed, and the sun shone on the old man's side, and the shadows covered most of the old man's face.

He was silent.

————

Bi Li returned home.

He raised his head, and suddenly found that the big tree in his yard had actually grown golden leaves. He excitedly climbed up the tree and carefully removed the golden leaf. Bi Li put it in his hand and touched it, found it a little strange, and then put it in his mouth and bit it.

Bi Li's eyes suddenly widened, and he was so excited that he couldn't make a sound for a while. He hurriedly ran to the house and showed the golden leaf to his parents, and Bi Li's father picked it up and looked at it, then put it in his mouth and bit it, and said in shock: "Where did you get this from?"

Bi Li said excitedly: "I suddenly found it in the tree at home today, how is it? Dad, is this true?"

Bi Li's father saw that he didn't look like he was lying, and then said with joy: "This is real gold, our family has become rich!"

"Really, our family has made a fortune?!" Bi Li said excitedly.

Bi Li's father nodded and said happily: "In the future, you will not have a problem studying at all, and your mother and I don't need to work so hard." ”

Bi Li happily ran to the yard and looked at the big tree growing in his yard with a smile. From the bottom of my heart, I bowed deeply to the big tree as a sign of gratitude.

At home not far away, Bi Li's parents happily hugged each other and shed tears of joy.

Bi Li smiled brightly, and he suddenly felt as if he didn't have to grow up so quickly.

On the trees in the distance.

An old man with reading glasses smiled kindly.

After a while, he suddenly spread his wings, which were riddled with holes,

Then he flew away proudly.

That's fine. The old man said in his heart.

————

Small bridges and flowing water, green trees and verdant vines.

Lin Futian and his party walked on the beautiful stone-paved path.

Since then, the few men have not seen any villages along the way. However, Luo Mei and the others were not surprised, because it must have been Lin Futian who led the way, he deliberately bypassed those towns, and then took Luo Mei and them on this kind of inaccessible path, probably with his own plans.

Ahead, Lin Futian suddenly squatted on the ground inexplicably, and then stretched out his hand and drew a mysterious magic circle on the ground that he didn't know what he was doing. Mo Yunfu once asked Lin Futian what kind of magic circle he was drawing, but Lin Futian just replied with a smile, "Secret." So Mo Yunfu didn't ask anymore. It's just that whenever Lin Futian suddenly squatted down to carve the magic circle, several people would still be suddenly startled.

Zhao Jingzhi doesn't have much to say lately.

It must be because the weather is getting hotter, right?

And since she accepted the inheritance of the murals, she has begun to become a little taciturn, not at all like the eldest lady of the Zhao family.

Sometimes, Lin Futian wondered: Is it that she used to be such a character, but when she was in that city, she put on a layer of protective color used for disguise?

She looked at Lin Futian, who was squatting down in front of her to carve the magic circle, and was a little curious about what this person was thinking every day.

This man, even if he used his supernatural powers, was still a hazy color. And not like Lomé, they have such a bright color.

Curiosity is often the beginning of many things.

Zhao Jingzhi doesn't know yet. But there is no need to know. Because everything has an end, nothing to do with the process.

Walking and walking.

Lin Futian and his party inexplicably arrived at an open space surrounded by bamboo trees.

As soon as they stepped into this land, Zhao Jingzhi obviously felt that something was wrong. But she couldn't say what was wrong.

Luo Mei and Mo Yunfu also sensed it, the former directly held the bamboo sword, and the latter picked up two coins and quickly deduced them in his hands.

Lin Futian's expression was as usual, and his hands were behind his back.

A white mist suddenly rose in the forest, and suddenly, Lome and the others suddenly noticed that the bamboo trees around them had changed their positions, and the intersection where they came was sealed.

Several people immediately stood by and looked around.

Suddenly, in the center of the cold white mist, bits of mist gradually converged into the shape of a chair. The white chair like a cloud and mist suddenly appeared in the middle of the clearing, as if it was a "fairy chair" that suddenly appeared above the long sea of clouds.

Slightly lonely.

Lin Futian frowned and looked at the chair.

In the middle of the mist, the white chair suddenly rose several times and stood tall on the "sea of clouds".

On top of the white chair, a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old suddenly appeared: she was dressed in a white dress, barefoot, and a string of bells tied to her ankles, which rang from time to time.

The only thing that was blurred was her face.

forest

They couldn't see what she looked like in the funeral day, so there was an infinite reverie about her appearance.

She swayed her legs, propped her hands on the white chair, tilted her head, and looked at the four people on the ground.

I don't know what she's thinking.

Lin Futian took a few steps forward, and several barb-shaped icicles suddenly stretched out from the ground, blocking Lin Futian's steps. Luo Mei and the others said nervously: "Come back quickly, the front is dangerous." ”

Lin Futian didn't continue to walk forward, just waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, she has no ill will towards us, the icicle just now was just a joke she made with us." ”

Mo Yunfu said: "Brother Lin, it's better to be careful. ”

Lin Futian nodded, then he raised his head and said, "This immortal spider, can you let our group pass through this forest?"

The girl was obviously a little surprised, but she didn't expect this person to see her roots at a glance. She smiled and asked, "How do you know?"

"Cactus spiders?" Luo Mei and the others wondered.

Lin Futian nodded and said, "They also belong to the Zerg, just like that senior senior, they are all Zerg cultivators with advanced cultivation." As for her ability, it's in weaving illusions. ”

Lomé and the others understood.

The girl sitting on the chair smiled and applauded Lin Futian, "Haha, I didn't expect you to know a lot as a human being." I'm not very old, but I know a lot, and it's pretty good. ”

Lin Futian smiled: "Thank you for the compliment." ”

The woman smiled and said, "I originally wanted you to pass, but I didn't expect you to call me senior, alas, I don't want you to pass now." ”

Lin Futian was stunned, and said in his heart: I didn't expect that whether it is men, women and children, they are still so sensitive to the word "senior"?

For the first time, he felt that he should carefully consider what others would call him in the future.

Lin Futian couldn't help but say helplessly: "Hmm...... Is that a little more or less now?"

The woman smiled, "What do you think?"

Lin Futian replied: "I don't think there should be any, an excellent monk like you must not have anything to do with someone like me, right?"

The woman smiled slightly, her shoulders swaying, and she said, "Interesting young man, but I really don't want you to pass now." ”

Lin Futian looked at the sky, and then said with a smile: "It's okay, it's getting late anyway, we can camp here and let you think about it." After that, Lin Futian and Luo Mei packed their luggage.

The woman smiled and whispered, "Interesting people." ”

Luo Mei quietly touched Lin Futian's shoulder and asked softly, "Tiantian, do you think we have a chance to go out?"

Lin Futian thought for a while and replied, "There are still some, but ...... You can actually speak louder, she can actually hear it. As he spoke, Lin Futian pointed to the woman in white.

The woman in white looked at the four people on the ground with interest and smiled.

Lomé was a little surprised, then reacted and shouted

Said: "Then you ......"

Lin Futian smiled: "Don't worry, I have a way." ”

Lomé sighed, then said nonchalantly, "That's fine." ”

In this way, they really camped here on Lin Futian day.

Mo Yunfu was kneeling cross-legged on the ground, meditating and practicing, he looked at the woman who was high up, and still felt a little like sitting on pins and needles. He couldn't help but look at Lin Futian, only to see that Lin Futian and Luo Mei were chatting heartlessly, and then started their daily practice with a smile.

With him, what are you afraid of?

Zhao Jingzhi didn't worry too much, because there was Lin Futian, so she was actually a little worried about the woman in white.

I don't know why.

The moon is clear.

The woman in white was still sitting on a high chair, she was holding a bag of things in her hand, I don't know what it was, there were some wrinkles on the paper, apparently she had opened and closed it many times.

She opened the packet of paper, revealing some well-preserved fingernails. It was given to her by someone who was very important to her, and he said that he gave her a part of his body in the hope that she would not forget herself. But after so many years, I still haven't waited for him, so the woman is actually a little desperate.

The woman in white propped up her chair with her hands and looked up at the bright moon, which she felt was a little dazzling.

"Ugh......," she sighed softly.

"Why are you sighing?" Lin Futian sat on the ground and looked up and asked.

The woman in white lowered her head and said with a smile: "You care about me?" I sighed and still need to explain my reasons to you?"

Lin Futian shook his head and said, "Naturally not, the juniors are just a little curious." ”

"Speaking of curiosity, I'm a little curious why don't you tell your companion the truth, why do you have to stay here for the night when you've already found a way out?"

Lin Futian smiled and said, "Haha, you can see this, in fact, there is no reason, just because I am tired." ”

The woman smiled: "Then I don't have any reason, I just want to sigh suddenly." ”

Lin Futian stroked the Moon Pot Sword and said with a smile: "The juniors know. ”

After a while.

The woman in white suddenly sighed: "I didn't know it before, but now I realize that in fact, despair is also an infinite beauty." ”

Lin Futian felt something, put down the Moon Pot Sword, raised his head and said, "Real is sometimes a kind of helpless vulgarity. ”

The woman in white smiled: "It seems that you have deep feelings?"

Lin Futian put his hands on the ground and said with a smile: "A little." ”

The woman in white swayed her legs, and the bell at her feet rang with a pleasant crisp sound.

The white mist on the ground gradually dissipated, and the bamboo forest gradually returned to its previous position.

"You can go. The woman said.

Lin Futian raised his head and asked, "Aren't the seniors coming down?"

"No, it's a nice view. The woman replied.

Suddenly, the woman's eyes widened and she shouted, "Bold!"

Beside the woman in white, a man in black appeared at some point with the sword hovering.

Lin Futian said with a smile: "I'll come up and take a look."

Let's see how good the scenery is when the predecessors say. ”

The woman in white turned her head and smiled at Lin Futian.

The next moment.

A man in black fell to the ground inexplicably, dusty.

Lin Futian was lying in the deep pit, smiling brightly.

He gave a thumbs up, looked at the woman in white who was tall above, and couldn't help but admire: "It is worthy of being a person who has cultivated to a high level." ”

The woman in white rolled her eyes, didn't want to pay attention to the junior, and continued to enjoy the scenery.

It's just that the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are all smiling.
