When Li Yu and the others went to find Xu Kaijiang, Shen's parents took Shen Xun to buy food to eat tonight.

Shen Xun followed behind and watched them buy a rich meal, a little suspicious in his heart, and secretly thought, what's wrong with my father? Could it be that because they are about to go to practice, they are no longer in the past? ”

Shen Xun didn't know at this time that his father and mother were thinking that they were about to leave, but this was the last meal their family had together, so they wanted them to eat the best and most hearty!

The bustle of Tianmen Town is someone else's, and when others see the Shen family, they will also congratulate them with envy on having the best cultivation talent. The Shen couple just smiled and nodded, and they didn't have much emotion to deal with them.

Shen Xun saw it in his eyes, becoming more and more suspicious, he grabbed the gap and asked, "Daddy, what's wrong with you?" Why don't you look interested? Aren't you happy? ”

Mother Shen looked back at the young man who had reached the height of her shoulders at this time, and smiled gently, "Happy, why aren't you happy, our Ah Xun will have a good future in the future, which is better than anything else." ”

After hearing this, Shen Xun quipped, "Mother, what are you talking about, you and your father are about to practice." ”

The two didn't explain after hearing this, and Father Shen then changed the topic and said, "You have to take good care of yourself in the future, you know?" ”

"I will, dad, don't worry, I will take care of my sister, and when you develop well outside, you can take me and my sister out again, I believe that with your cultivation talent, you will definitely be able to do it soon, right?"

Shen Xun asked them with great affirmation, it seemed that in his opinion, this was already a sure thing, Shen's father looked at Shen Xun's expectant and firm eyes, and for a while he was a little speechless, he held back the sorrow in his heart, and said with a smile, "Yes, we will definitely be together again in the future." ”

After the three of them went home, Li Yu and the others went back early in the morning.

Xu Kaijiang didn't know the truth behind it, but he was no longer the little kid who didn't understand anything before, he learned to observe words and looks, Li Yu and Shen Tang's expressions were not as relaxed as before, and the two of them were like a burden of thousands of catties on their hearts, so that they couldn't really relax.

Shen Tang took the two of them to cook silently, and the three of them had a clear division of labor, and they were speechless to each other.

When Shen Xun and the others came back, they saw that Shen Xun was already boiling water and kneading noodles with them.

After they put everything away, Shen's father and Shen's mother went into the kitchen to get busy, and Shen Xun accompanied them to knead them.

Xu Kaijiang asked, "Are we going to make steamed buns?" ”

Shen Tang replied, "Make dumplings." Then, he looked at Shen Xun and said, "My brother likes to eat the most." ”

Everyone didn't understand why Shen Tang said this, only Li Yu understood a little, but he didn't speak, and silently did his own thing.

It was dinner, but they spent an afternoon working on it.

When dinner was served, only Shen Xun and Xu Kaijiang looked at the dishes on the big table in front of them dumbfounded, and Xu Kaijiang said in a sneering voice, "This, this food is too good." ”

After hearing this, Shen Xun also reacted and looked at his father and said, "Daddy, you won't finish all the dishes you bought today, right?" ”

Yes, they did finish all the food they bought today.

Mother Shen smiled, "I made more, I'm not afraid that you will be able to eat the food I cook in the future, so I will make more, you eat more, and I will finish all of this today." ”

Li Yu took over and said, "Brother Xun, you have to eat more, when Uncle Shen and them go out in the future, it will not be so easy for you to taste the taste of the food they made." ”

This sound very ordinary, but when it fell on Shen Xun's ears, he always felt that he meant something.

Shen Tang also said, "Yes, brother, you eat more." After speaking, he also gave him the marinated chicken thighs.

Shen Xun saw that everyone was persuading him to eat more, his heart was weird, and just when he wanted to say something, Shen's father took over the words, "Okay, everyone don't talk about it, let's eat, if you push it any further, the food will be cold." ”

Seeing this, Shen Xun relieved the confusion in his heart and concentrated on eating.

This meal, everyone seemed to be taking care of Shen Xun's appetite, Xu Kaijiang had been secretly observing, with a slight suspicion in his heart, and glanced at Li Yu, Li Yu received his inquiring eyes, and shook his head indifferently.

Under the yellowish candle flame, the dishes on the table were eaten by them, and Shen Xun was even more overwhelmed, he sat down on the chair a little, touched his round stomach and said, "I have never eaten like this." ”

Mother Shen wanted to get up and clean up, but was pulled by Father Shen, shook her head and asked her not to be busy tonight, and sat and chatted with them.

Xu Kaijiang is not a fool, he obviously feels that the atmosphere is not right, even if it is separate, but thinking that they are going to practice, how can it be considered a good thing, why is it full of a faint sadness!

He sat and listened quietly like an outsider, and the five of them talked about their youth from childhood, from youth to youth, and from youth to youth, and many things that were previously ridiculous were told by everyone, and laughter and laughter covered up their sadness, but behind the excitement was a helpless desolation.

The six of them chatted until late at night, and when they went back, Li Yu took Xu Kaijiang back together, and on the way, Xu Kaijiang still couldn't help but ask, "Li Yu, why are they so strange?" ”

Li Yu walked in the dark night, the night wind blew the corners of their clothes, as if setting off a gust of wind, Li Yu said, "Tomorrow morning, let's go and send Brother A Xun early!" If nothing else, he'll be leaving tomorrow. ”

"Let's go? Where to go? Isn't his father and mother leaving? Xu Kaijiang couldn't help but ask.

The way back was a sparsely populated rural road, so Li Yu was not afraid of being heard by the people of Tianmen Town, and as for those who were watching them behind their backs, they already knew about it.

Li Yu told Xu Kaijiang about the purpose behind this talent selection conference, Xu Kaijiang's face turned pale after hearing this, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he asked, "Are they still human?" ”

After hearing this, Li Yu said lightly, "Perhaps, since they embarked on the path of cultivation, they no longer see themselves as human beings." There is a saying in ancient books that heaven and earth are not benevolent to all things as dogs, they think that they are heaven and earth, or they are characters who can be compared with heaven and earth, and they look at all things in the world as heaven and earth, and do not regard all things as individuals with independent lives. But they are wrong, heaven and earth are unkind to all things as dogs, not to say that heaven and earth are high above, but that heaven and earth have always looked at all things in the world from the perspective of a bystander, and the operation of the world, the prosperity and withering of all things have their own laws and fixed numbers, rather than imposing them on all things by their own will. ”

No one noticed that when Li Yu said this, the wind around him seemed to be still, and he was in an extremely mysterious situation. Xu Kaijiang has not officially stepped into cultivation at this time, if he and Li Yu are in a place of Taoism outside Tianmen Town at this time, I am afraid that he will be touched by Li Yu's light and take advantage of this wind to step into the door of cultivation in one fell swoop.

It was also the first time Xu Kaijiang had heard such remarks, and he asked, "Is this what your master told you?" ”

Li Yu shook his head and said, "No, this is what I realized myself, Master never gave me the method of cultivation, only let me read the Taoist scriptures, these truths are all realized by myself in the days and nights of reading the Taoist scriptures." ”

Before the two chatted and returned to the Taoist temple, Xu Kaijiang also asked a more profound question, "If one day, we also become the people we once hated the most, how should we go on?" ”

After Li Yu thought for a while, Fang Dao, "I also know this, but I think that if your original intention is good, then even if you become the person you hated the most, I think you can be worthy of your heart!" ”

These words were deeply remembered by Xu Kaijiang, he thought about them thoughtfully, and followed Li Yu back to the Taoist temple.

Li Yu arranged Xu Kaijiang into a guest room, found him some toiletries, bedding and sheets, and explained it in detail, so that after he remembered to call him if he had something, he returned to his bedroom.

Before Li Yu returned to his room, he looked at the Taoist's quiet room, and had some questions in his heart, he wanted to ask but didn't know where to start, and he didn't know if the Taoist would say it.

The next day, Li Yu and Xu Kaijiang went to Shen Xun's house early, and to their surprise, Shen Xun didn't get up, and Shen Tang's eyes were red. When Shen Tang saw Li Yu coming, he finally couldn't suppress the sadness in his heart, and threw himself on him and cried.

Li Yu looked at Shen's father and Shen's mother, who also had red eyes, at a loss, and then, after Shen Tang cried for a while, Shen's father couldn't bear the sadness of parting and said, "Before going to bed last night, I gave Ah Xun a soothing tea, and he won't wake up today." ”

Li Yu and Xu Kaijiang knew it in their hearts, and at the same time felt a sense of powerless pathos.

If Shen Xun knew that he was going to be sent away, he was afraid that he would not want to. Rather than the two sides being inseparable at that time, it is better to cut off their separate sorrows.

It didn't take long for the two masters to come to the Shen family.

Li Yu looked at Master Liang, what was different from others, his eyes were clear, not with a trace of sadness, but with a warning look. Liang Fuzi asked curiously, "Aren't you his friend?" Why don't I feel the slightest bit of sadness from you? ”

"Shen Xun is my friend, he was and will be. He is helpless to go with you, I believe that you really want to take him under the door, but this does not mean that he will not suffer a little grievance in your door, where there are people, there is a fight, I only hope that you can protect him at all times, since the person is what you want to take away now, then please take good care of him. ”

Li Yu's words revealed an undoubted domineering, which made the other master a little unhappy, but he didn't expect Master Liang to be unconcerned, he smiled, "What if we don't do it?" How are you going? ”

Li Yu said, "In the near future, I will definitely go to him, and I will talk about it then." ”

Liang glanced at Li Yu seriously after hearing this, and then replied in a deep voice, "That's the case, I'm waiting for your arrival." ”

No matter how reluctant the parting is, it will eventually come.

Shen's father and Shen's mother hugged Shen Xun out of the bedroom, and then stuffed a letter written early into Shen Xun's baggage, the people of the Shen family were in tears, and Shen's mother touched Shen Xun's face with pity, and said with care and kindness, "Ah Xun, don't complain about your father, we are also a last resort, I hope God will bless you with no illness and no disaster, and your life will go smoothly." ”

Shen Tang also took Shen Xun's hand and said, "Brother, you remember to take good care of yourself, in the future, I will definitely go to you with Xiaoyu'er, you have to wait for me to come!" ”

Both of them were reluctant to let go, but Shen's father couldn't stand it, so he hugged Shen Xun directly from Shen's mother's hands, and after taking a final look at Shen Xun's appearance, he handed him to Mu Feng, the old master who came with him.

The two of them took Shen Xun and drifted away, and Li Yu and the others wanted to go to the dock to send it off, but they were rejected by Mu Feng with an extremely unceremonious attitude.

Li Yu glanced at Liang Hui and asked, "Are the masters also leaving Tianmen Town now?" ”

Liang Hui didn't look at him, but said, "I'm not leaving." ”

The answer was very simple, but Li Yu understood, he didn't leave, that is, the old master would go.

So, did he not leave because their Confucian affairs were only partially completed, and the other part was still in the hands of Liang Hui?
