A dark room, lit up by a light rune.

Xu Wu lay on the bed, recalling what happened at dusk.

He couldn't help but let out an exaggerated laugh.

I didn't expect that Qin Heng would also have today.

It must be a shame to lose a lot of money.

"But why did he leave in a hurry?" Xu Wu muttered.

The nobles on the mountain, Qin Heng's sudden departure, the silent palace.

Are these three things connected?

Turning sideways, he saw Ye Li, who was placing his luggage.

"Don't you have anything to ask me?"

The light of the roof is emitting a soft light.

Ye Li raised his head and looked at Xu Wu.

"Ask what?" Ye Li looked a little dazed.

"It's just.... Forget it, you're fine. ”

Also, he basically doesn't care about the outside world. Xu Wu thought so.

It's just a pity that I racked my brains to come up with an excuse.

After Ye Li put his luggage away, he got up and walked outside the house.

"What are you going to do at such a late hour?" Xu Wu asked.

Ye Li didn't answer his question.

Xu Wu sighed.

This has happened more than once.

In Ye Li's words, he just wants to think about something alone.

I don't know what I'm thinking.

"Don't go too far, and don't disturb the guests of the temple." Xu Wu advised.

On the hidden path outside the main hall, Qin Heng, who had returned from outside, met a woman.

The woman's face is like white jade, her face is like a beautiful day, and she is dressed in gorgeous clothes, like a fairy in the sky.

Her expression was so melancholy that it was pitiful.

But the moment she saw Qin Heng, a smile brighter than Mingyue bloomed on her face.

"Brother Qin Heng, are you here to see me?" Her tone was a little apprehensive, mixed with a little joy, but the most in between, it was the excitement that could not be concealed.

Seeing this scene, even Qin Heng couldn't help but show a soft smile.

He stroked the woman's hair with his hand and whispered to her, "Of course I'm here for this." ”

His other hand quietly depicted something behind the woman's back.

A moment later, the aura gathered around the two of them, forming an invisible barrier that isolated everything outside of them.

Including a line of sight from the shadows.

Of course, the woman, who is not a monk, knows nothing about this.

She was immersed in Qin Heng's tenderness, clinging to his chest, telling him what she had seen and heard during this time.

Qin Heng listened quietly, for him, a woman may be the only consolation on this boring path of cultivation.

"It's not too early, you can go back and rest." I don't know how long it took, Qin Heng spoke.

The woman nodded and chuckled, "I know, I know, Brother Qin Heng still likes to care about people so much." ”

After the woman's figure submerged into the shadow of the temple gate, Qin Heng suddenly jumped up to a high place, and a wave of spiritual power gathered descended from a high place and spread to all around.

There was no movement around.

Already gone? Qin Heng thought secretly.

He turned around and walked towards the dwelling of the sect.

The figure in the shadows sighed.

But in an instant, he felt a burst of extremely lethal spiritual power coming towards him.

He hurriedly fled into the distance, just to avoid the damage of spiritual power.

The spiritual power exploded silently in the place where he was before, and the aftermath of the stirring was surrounded by the magic circles around the main hall.

His heart couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Compared with back then, Qin Heng not only made further progress in his cultivation, but also acted more decisively.

Is it because of that experience three years ago, or because of this woman?

All this may only be known to Qin Heng himself.

In the center of the main hall, there is a crystal clear pool, in which a bright moon is reflected.

At the railing next to the pool, a middle-aged man leaned.

The man raised his head and looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.

In his hand he held a wine cup filled with fine wine.

He looked a little surprised to find someone coming.

He turned his head to look.

The young man in front of him walked to the other side of the pool, held the railing with both hands, and looked down at the water.

Both were silent.

After raising the cup and taking a sip of the wine, he looked up again.

The moon still hangs high in the sky.

Ye Li looked at the reflection in the water and gradually became distracted.

The self in front of me is similar to the self in my memory.

The longer I look at it, the heavier the sense of disobedience in my heart becomes.

I don't know which one is illusory.

The wind is blowing.

The dark clouds from afar obscured the bright moon.

The night sky darkened suddenly, and only a few twinkling stars could be faintly seen.

Sure enough, there are nine times out of ten things that are unsatisfactory in life, and it is rare to meet like-minded people, but this bright moon refuses to stay for a while.

The man thought so.

The wine in the cup was drunk in one go.

He was ready to go back to the house and rest.

The boy didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.

As he passed by the boy, he tried to say something, but he couldn't.

He didn't want to disturb the teenager.

It is such a rare and precious thing to be so purely immersed in your own world.

When was the last time I was in this state?

Drinking alone under the moon, in the final analysis, is just a way to escape.

After all, there are so many worldly things that he is entangled in, and there are countless things to think about.

Even in that time just now, some things that he didn't want to remember still came to his mind.

Before he knew it, he had walked to the door of his daughter's room. The hallway in front of the door was pitch black.

The owner of the room doesn't seem to be here.

"This kid, I'm looking for him again." The man chuckled.

Although he was not opposed to this matter, he did not show much support.

This kind of life event still depends on yourself.

However, when he thought that the child he had raised for many years had now returned to other places, he was still somewhat lost.

Under the dark night sky, Ye Li's reflection was no longer visible in the pool.

Ye Li finally regained his mind.

It was another fruitless night.

He turned away and walked towards his room.

When I opened the door, it was pitch black.

Xu Wu is missing.

Xu Wu was not there, and the light talisman naturally could not be used.

But Ye Li didn't care about this.

He moved slowly, found the bed in the darkness by his senses, and lay down.

Then he fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, the pool in the center of the main hall is flooded with blue waves.

In the night sky above the pool, the dark clouds dispersed and the bright moon reappeared.

On the surface of the water under the moonlight is the reflection of the bright moon and the boy.
