Chapter 282: The Master is Here
The next day, Yuxi was at work.
Suddenly, the mobile phone rang, and Yuxi picked it up and saw that it was the phone of the Xuanji hermit.
"Master, is that you?"
Yuxi answered the phone and carefully closed the office door.
"Yuxi, it's me, are you okay?"
Xuanji Hermit said Nuan Nuan on the other side of the phone.
"Fortunately, master, where are you now?"
Yuxi smiled slightly.
"Yuxi, I've arrived at Yuxu Mountain, do you have time to see me?"
The hermit of Xuanji had a hint of expectation in his tone.
"Okay, master, I'll come to see you, where are you? I'll wait to find you. ”
Yuxi agreed, planning to go out to see the master later.
"I'm in a coffee shop on Shaoshan Road, and I'll tell you where to find me when you get there. ”
The hermit told Yuxi the approximate location, and he wanted to meet Yuxi.
"Master, I'll be there, you wait for me. ”
Yuxi and Ruiqi ask for leave to go out to meet the master.
When she arrived at Shaoshan Road, Yuxi quickly found the master according to the location on the phone.
The master sat in a small box, waiting for Yuxi.
When Yuxi saw the master, she saw that the master was wearing a thin black suit, with a pair of crisp trousers and leather shoes underneath.
The Xuanji hermit looked like he was only in his fifties, and no one would have thought that he was now over a thousand years old.
The hermit still has his trademark long beard, his eyes are bright, and he looks good.
"Master, I'm here. ”
Yuxi wore a dark blue skirt, which was her standard attire for work.
Yuxi put the bag on the small table and looked at the Xuanji hermit in front of her with a smile.
"Yuxi, it's been a long time, haven't you forgotten me?"
The Xuanji hermit was smiling and looked at Yuxi in front of him with appreciation.
"Master, how would I? But if I hadn't met you last time and met you on the road, I wouldn't have been able to tell it was you? You're getting younger and younger, and I can't tell how old you are. ”
"Hahaha, Yuxi, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter, you were quite good at talking when you were a child, and it's still the same now, you will make the master happy!"
The hermit laughed heartily and stroked his beard.
"Master, where, what I said is true, what is the matter with the master's visit this time?"
Yuxi got to the point, she felt that there must be something going on with the master's visit this time, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly come to Yuxu Mountain to find her.
"Yuxi, I actually came here to see you by the way, to see if you are doing well; secondly, this time I went to the headquarters to report, and the head of the headquarters specially invited me to study a topic, saying that it was very important and could not be absent. It just so happened that I was passing by Yuxu Mountain, so I came to visit you. ”
The hermit of Xuanji Kankan arrived to explain the intention of this trip.
"So that's the case, master, what topic do you go to the headquarters to study, is it important?"
Yuxi was very curious, what did the head of the headquarters ask the master to study, and it was so important?
"The headquarters said that it was a mysterious phenomenon, and they couldn't find the reason, but they didn't say what it was, and kept it secret for the time being, for fear that I would leak the news. ”
Xuanji hermit, smiling without saying a word, glanced at Yuxi.
Yuxi heard what the master said, and the burden in her heart was relaxed, she was afraid that the master would mention the matter of the Book of Heaven, and she didn't want to pass the Book of Heaven to Ruiqi according to the master's intention for the time being, lest once the task was completed, she might have to leave Ruiqi.
The burden in Yuxi's heart was finally put down, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was not about the book of heaven.
The Xuanji hermit looked at Yu Xi's expression, and understood in his heart that Yu Xi was afraid of talking about the Book of Heaven, so he was cautious.
When the Xuanji hermit saw Yuxi's appearance, he also guessed that she and Ruiqi must be living happily. The current Yuxi still maintains the temperament of a classical beauty, but she is still beautiful and moving when she wears modern clothes.
The Xuanji hermit admired Yuxi very much, this girl was not only smart but also beautiful, and was his most proud disciple.
Yuxi suddenly asked, "Master, can you reveal a little news?" What is the phenomenon, they are so mysterious?"
The Xuanji hermit stroked his long beard: "Well, it's not easy to say, but the chief also said a little, it is about an incident that once appeared in the ancient Western Regions, they have only heard folklore in the past, and there is no specific physical evidence." This time, I found a little clue in the archaeology, so I came to study it together. ”
"The Western Regions, the Ancient Western Regions?"
Yuxi's heart couldn't help but be shocked, didn't she and Ruiqi fight in the Western Regions? Could it be that the mysterious event that the master said was related to the past?
Yuxi couldn't help but feel uneasy, what the master said made her heart hang in her throat, this matter must not be related to the battle of the Western Regions, otherwise she would not be able to feel at ease.
"Yuxi, what's wrong with you, why do you seem a little nervous?"
The Xuanji hermit saw that Yuxi's face was wrong, so he asked her with concern, what happened to Yuxi?
"Master, nothing, it's a little cold air conditioner. ”
After Yuxi finished speaking, she clasped her arms in front of her chest and made a look of being afraid of the cold.
"That's right, I'll turn off the air conditioner, you don't catch a cold. ”
After saying that, the Xuanji hermit turned off the air conditioner and sat back at the table.
"Yuxi, drink some coffee and warm up. ”
The Xuanji hermit knocked lightly on the table and motioned for Yuxi to drink some coffee first, so that he could feel a little warmer.
"Well, okay, master, thank you. ”
Yuxi picked up the small white porcelain coffee cup and took a sip gently.
"This time, I also think it's strange that some mysterious event has caught the attention of the headquarters, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to rush to the headquarters as soon as possible. Maybe they think it's important, and I've been to the Western Regions before. ”
The hermit took a sip of coffee from the cup, although the hermit came from ancient times, but with the passage of time, he also followed the local customs and adapted to the life of modern people.
He is no stranger to drinking coffee and beer, wearing a suit and tie, and even going out to take a plane and train, he can adapt to it.
To put it more vividly, the Xuanji hermit is familiar with driving a car.
The headquarters summoned the Xuanji hermit this time, and it was a mysterious event that was discovered. Because the headquarters knew that the Xuanji hermit had been to the Western Regions, they summoned him to rush to the headquarters as soon as possible to participate in the research.
The identity of the Xuanji hermit is only known to a few people in the headquarters, because he is special, so under the arrangement of the headquarters, he has a legal identity, otherwise with the age of the Xuanji hermit, it is impossible to say.
The hermit of Xuanji only knew a little clue revealed by the headquarters, but because he had been to the ancient Western Regions and participated in the battle against General Gartnu, he still had some understanding of the customs there.
"Speaking of the Western Regions, I naturally think of the war against Gartnu, Yuxi, do you remember?"
Xuanji Hermit said slowly, he knew that Yuxi had an accident in this battle.
"Master, I remember that I went there specifically for Riich, and in order to save him, I died with Canon. ”
Yuxi still remembers it vividly, and that war is unforgettable for her.
"Yes, evil Canon, it can summon skeletons and fire-breathing dragons, it's really terrifying, and if it still exists in the world, it will be a disaster. ”
The hermit still remembers the horror and bloodshed of that war, and the evil Canon doesn't know how many people he killed and how many people's souls he devoured.
"If it weren't for Canon, Riich and they would have defeated Gartanu a long time ago, but they didn't expect Gartanu to summon Canon, so this war was very difficult. ”
Yuxi still remembers the scene at that time, if she didn't kill Canon, then Ruiqi would be in danger, so in desperation, she chose to die with Canon, but later she accidentally crossed over and came to the modern world.
"Gartnu is not scary, what is scary is Kanon, and no one can kill Kanon, which is why it is so hard. ”
The hermit concluded that he knew that killing Canon would not be easy.
"I don't know if Canon is dead or not, but I crossed over, and I don't know what happened next. ”
"Later, Kanon did not appear, and Gartnu signed a peace treaty on behalf of the Capricorn country, so there was no war after that. But after you left, Riich was very sad. ”
The hermit wants to tell Yuxi what happened later, when Ruiqi lost Yuxi and was in a slump.
"Riich, what happened to him then?"
Yuxi was very curious, and she wanted to know what happened to Riich later.
"Riich is very sad to lose you, and they have set up a coffin for you. Riich often visited your grave, and was very depressed and depressed. Later, after a long time, the emperor decreed that the ninth princess would marry him. ”
"Nine princesses, who are the nine princesses?"
Yuxi was very surprised, what kind of character is this Nine Princesses.
"The ninth princess is the emperor's daughter, she looks very much like you, in fact, she is a distant relative of your family, and her age is similar to yours, maybe you haven't seen it before, so I don't know. ”
Xuanji hermit told the truth, after he left the Western Regions, he had gone to Yuxu Mountain several times to visit Ruiqi, so he knew some information. But Yuxi never knew about these things.
"So that's the case, Ruiqi and the Ninth Princess are married. ”
Yuxi showed a faint sadness, at that time she couldn't live and fly with Ruiqi, but the ninth princess had this fate.
"Actually, Ruiqi once regarded the Nine Princesses as your rebirth, because you are so similar, so he almost couldn't tell the difference. ”
Xuanji hermit laughed, and when he talked about the appearance of the ninth princess, she was really similar to Yuxi.
"That Ruiqi doesn't know, I really think that the ninth princess is me. ”
Yuxi smiled, she didn't expect that there was a ninth princess similar to her, just because she had been living in Yuxu Mountain and didn't know about this situation.
"It took a long time for Ruiqi to understand that the ninth princess was actually not you, and of course he couldn't resist the decree, otherwise he would anger the emperor and walk around. Of course, there is the ninth princess, and he is also a little comforted, after all, he looks too similar to you, and the ninth princess is very good to him. ”
When the Xuanji hermit talked about this past, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, how sad Ruiqi was when he lost Yuxi, he saw it with his own eyes.
"Ricky is so sad that he can barely pull himself together without you. ”
The Xuanji hermit whispered, and Yuxi listened silently, and her eyes were a little moist.
"It's all in the past, now we're all fine, after all, together and I don't want to be separated from him again. ”
Yuxi was sad, these words touched her heart.
