Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Late Night Visitor

"Click, click, click, click."

The person knocked very quickly, and before Mu Dingzhen had time to clean it up, Xiaopang rushed to open the door, so frightened that he almost broke the jade in his hand.

Mu Dingzhen scolded the chubby fool in his heart, if he was seen, the dignified Dingzhen Daxian actually took stock of his belongings in person, wouldn't it greatly damage the image of the master?

Fei also sat up straight, raised his shoulders, covered his ears and stole bells with his body, and quickly gave the snow warbler a look.

Xue Ying'er comprehended, and hurriedly ran to the master's side, and also learned that he was sitting with his shoulders high, sitting upright, and blocking the gold and jade belongings with his body.

The door of the hall is open, the night breeze penetrates, and the cold breath blows in the face.

When they saw the visitors from outside the door, the master and apprentice were stunned.

I saw that her long hair was neatly curled, her melon seed face, her face was delicate and fair, her peach-leaf-like curved eyes also had a little charm in it, a dark green velvet cloak was draped on her shoulders, she was wearing a black slim strong coat inside, her figure was concave and convex, and a long sword was worn on Yingyingliu's waist.

But she is a sassy young woman.

Mu Haotian and Shuangshu stood up and exclaimed in unison:

"Senior Sister Ting'er!"

The person who came was their senior sister Mu Ting, who had been out for many years.

Although they haven't seen each other for a long time, the senior sister's body has long faded away from immaturity and weakness, adding a little charm and strength, but the three of them still recognize it at a glance.

Mu Ting smiled gently, stretched her arms to hug Shuangshu who rushed to her, hugged them tightly, and gently rubbed their vests with her palms, her eyebrows and eyes were full of happiness and joy that could not be concealed.

Only Mu Haotian noticed that there seemed to be two lines of undried tears on the senior sister's face.

After saving for a while, Mu Ting let go of her tearful eyes, looked at Mu Haotian who was standing in front of her, and habitually wanted to pat her junior brother's shoulder, but she stretched out her hand but paused in the air, and then hugged him.

She smiled and said:

"Oh my God, you've grown so tall."

Mu Haotian's body trembled, and in his mind, the scene of the senior sister taking them to cultivate flowers and herbs on the southern slope and teaching Shuangshu to make sachets in the past came to mind.

With tears in his eyes, he said:

"Senior sister...... Why haven't you come home to see ...... after all these years?"

Hearing this, Mu Ting's eyes were red, she bit her lip, and finally did not shed any more tears.

Family.

It was a familiar and distant word to her.

In fact, she has been here for a long time, listening to the laughter of the younger brothers and sisters inside, in this strange town, but it is like a wanderer returning to her hometown, crying, uneasy, and stopping for a long time before mustering up the courage to knock on the door.

In the face of her relatives' questions, how to teach her how to answer?

Dao Xuanwu Extreme Mountain Sect is sparse, and all the disciples are fatherless and motherless orphans adopted by the master, and they are like brothers and sisters to each other. Mu Ting suffered a sudden catastrophe that year, and since then she has been away from home and wandered alone for several years.

Mu Haotian, Xueying, and the Swift sisters often miss their senior sister in their hearts, but they can only occasionally listen to the master talk about her recent situation.

Today's reunion, both parties can't help but be overjoyed and hold hands with each other. Even though there are a thousand words in his chest, he doesn't know where to ask or answer, and even the swift, who has always been happy, is just shining with tears and quietly snuggling up beside his senior sister.

"I've seen Senior Sister!"

Jing Ling held the tea in her hand, stood in a row with Xiaopang and Xiaozhuang, and saluted in unison.

Seeing Mu Ting's doubts, Xue Ying hurriedly explained:

"Senior sister, this is a new disciple that Master included a few days ago."

Mu Ting took the teacup, greeted her sister and brother with a smile, and looked at Mu Dingzhen, but saw him with a straight face, playing with gold and jade with his two hands.

Mu Ting's chest was suffocated, and she said in a dumb voice:

"Master."

"Hmmm......"

Mu Dingzhen drooped his eyelids, nodded lightly, and then said:

"Jingling, Xiaopang, Xiaozhuang, you go down to rest first."

The three sisters and brothers retired according to their words, and when they were about to go out, Jing Ling looked at Mu Haotian and wanted to talk, maybe she felt that the time was not right, so she shook her head, closed the door and left.

Mu Ting took a step forward, knelt down slowly, and bowed to Mu Dingzhen to the end.

Mu Dingzhen didn't seem to expect her to be like this, his eyes froze, and he said warmly:

"It's good to come back, and it's ...... when you come back"

But before he finished speaking, Mu Ting had already stood up on her own, standing in a pavilion, and looked at her master in vain.

Mu Ding's truth was half embarrassed, and his face was slightly gloomy.

Seeing this situation, Mu Haotian and Shuangshu knew that the senior sister was at ease in her heart, and the disagreement between them and the master was not resolved, so the three of them moved their lips, wanting to ease the atmosphere.

But I heard Mu Ting say calmly:

"Master, I have something to discuss with you alone."

Mu Dingzhen frowned and said:

"Tian'er, they are not outsiders, just say anything you have."

Mu Ting walked forward, put the tea cup in her hand on the table, glanced at the various miscellaneous items piled up on the table, and said lightly:

"The money and materials I send back every year are supposed to be enough for the expenses of the entire mountain gate, why don't you let them meditate and cultivate, and come out to earn this hard money?"

As soon as these words came out, the swift behind him immediately tilted his head and said suspiciously:

"Master? Aren't you still complaining: You senior brothers and sisters, one of them is counted, and they are all in the wind and water outside, but who knows ......"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

Mu Dingzhen's old face turned red, and he coughed a few times quickly, afraid that she would continue to speak, so he hurriedly said:

"That, Tian'er Ying'er Yan'er, you guys should go down first! Your senior sister came to the door so late, there must be something important to discuss with the teacher, you children, don't make trouble! ”

"Who's a child! I,"

When Yuyan heard this, she was anxious, and she wanted to reason with her master, but suddenly she was pulled by her sleeve, turned her head, and saw her sister winking at herself, and then snorted at Senior Sister Mu Ting in front of her.

Swift immediately came to her senses and said:

"Sister Ting'er......"

Mu Ting turned around and smiled at the three of them:

"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry to leave this time, and I'll be with you tomorrow."

The tone was so soft that he couldn't be denied.

As if the sensitive nature of an orphan, Mu Haotian was keenly aware of the seriousness of his senior sister's words, and immediately said:

"Senior Sister Ting'er, then let's go first, and we'll see you early tomorrow morning."

Pulling the swift and the warbler through the door, he said to the house:

"Senior sister, we have missed you all these years."

Mu Ting smiled and nodded, her eyes fluttering like the microwaves of Pinghu:

"Me too."

When the door was closed again, the footsteps of the junior brothers and sisters gradually became inaudible, and the smile on Mu Ting's face gradually faded, turned around and walked to the table, and sat down facing the master.

At this time, Mu Dingzhen had already picked up the gold, silver and jade on the table, looked at Mu Ting, and said softly:

"Ting'er, all these years...... You okay? ”

Mu Ting said:

"I'm not here to catch up with you."

Mu Dingzhen's eyes flickered, and he said:

"I didn't expect that in just four years, you have broken through to the innate realm! You're out there alone...... I have endured a lot of hardships. ”

Mu Ting sneered:

"What, do you know how to care about people?"

Hearing this, Mu Dingzhen's face twitched, blood gushed up on his face, and even his beard seemed to be red, but after all, he felt guilty and never had a seizure.

He hit the wall again and again, and his heart was angry, and he said coldly:

"Why did you deliberately separate them? There is no one now, and it doesn't hurt to have something to say. ”

Mu Ting nodded slightly, turned her hand and took out something that looked like an inkstone and laid it flat on the table.

Mu Dingzhen glanced at the past, only to see that this thing was square on the outside and round on the inside, the size of half a palm, and the material should be jade, dark green color, and delicate carving. At first glance, it looks a bit like the base of the previous jade toad.

Then gather your eyes and look carefully in the middle:

The "circle" in it is full like a cake, dark red, and surrounded by a lifelike green jade dragon.

There are a few locks of whiskers between the "dragon" and the "circle", which are like the light and heat of the sun, and also like the dragon struggling to make clouds.

It means that the green dragon is coiled around the red sun.

Mu Dingzhen took a sharp breath, his pupils tightened, revealing a certain indescribable meaning, both surprise and surprise, but also excitement and joy.

This is the convening order of the Cangzhou Long family, a behemoth in the southeast of Cangzhou!
