Chapter 237: Master and Apprentice Reunited
The next day, Yuxi and Ruiqi get ready early in the morning and decide to visit the mysterious Boss Yu.
Yuxi faintly felt that Boss Yu might be her master, Xuanji Hermit.
Judging from the descriptions of the guys in the shop, it is very likely that he is a hermit of Xuanji.
Not only from the name, but also from the physical characteristics, Yuxi thinks that she may be able to find a master who she hasn't seen for a long time.
She was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night, tossing and turning in bed thinking about what it had been like when she met her master.
When the master sees her, can he still recognize her, and when the master sees Ruiqi, will he find that this is the reincarnation of Huyan Ruiqi back then, because there is also a same mysterious birthmark on Ruiqi.
As for how to complete her mission after reuniting with her master, Yuxi still has no clue in her heart.
It would have been a lot of trouble just to explain this to Riich, after all, Riich has no memory of his past life.
Moreover, even in her previous life, Yuxi did not explain the reason for this matter to Ruiqi.
As for whether Ruiqi will understand when she tells Ruiqi the truth, whether she believes that there is such a bizarre thing, Yuxi has no idea.
With Ruiqi's current identity, he is completely a modern person, whether he will believe that there is such a strange thing in the world, it is worth thinking about Yuxi.
As for the master, whether he predicted the arrival of Yuxi, and it was a thousand years later, Yuxi came through time and space, whether he would be surprised, Yuxi didn't know how to evaluate it at all.
Early in the morning, Yuxi and Ruiqi had breakfast, packed their bags, and walked to the antique shop in the city.
At this time, there are not many shops open on the streets.
They expected that if Boss Yu had a heart, he would open the door of the store early in the morning and wait for the two of them.
As expected, Yuxi walked not far away and saw that the antique shop was wide open, and the guy yesterday was cleaning the shop.
Yuxi and Ruiqi hurriedly walked to the front of the store and said hello loudly.
"Little brother, is Boss Yu here?"
Yuxi called out softly to the young man, looking at the situation, it shouldn't be in vain.
The guy was holding a broom and was cleaning the ground, and when he saw that it was Yuxi and the two, he smiled.
"It turns out to be the two of you, the boss is here today, you go into the store and wait for a while, he goes to breakfast, and will come back in a while, please sit inside!"
After speaking, the guy let Yuxi and Ruiqi into the house and sat down, made a pot of tea and served it to the two of them.
Yuxi was a little thirsty, poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly, thinking that Boss Yu was not in a hurry, just at this time to go to breakfast, it was the style of some masters.
In the past, the master was also tepid, and every time he went out hunting when the sun was shining, he always had to get some wild things back to make for Yuxi to eat.
Although Yuxi was small and still a white snake back then, she had tasted a lot of wild food, after all, there was a good hunter like Xuanji Hermit, and her mouth was still good.
Therefore, Yuxi doesn't need to go out hunting by herself at all to eat a full stomach.
At that time, Yuxi learned a lot of kung fu from the master, but when it comes to hunting skills, there is basically none, after all, don't do it yourself for three meals a day, so even if you don't have anything to eat, you just catch some small fish and shrimp to satisfy your hunger.
After a while, Yuxi waited a little anxiously, and when she was fidgeting, an old man walked in from outside the door.
The guy called out respectfully: "Boss Yu, there are guests waiting for you in the house, they are the two who came yesterday." ”
Boss Yu smiled and responded: "Got it." ”
When Boss Yu crossed the threshold, Yu Xi stood up suddenly, and was almost about to blurt out: "Master!"
I saw that the old man had a long beard, his hair was combed back, his eyes were bright, and he was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.
He looked no more than fifty or sixty years old, dressed in a pair of Tang suits, looking at Yuxi and Ruiqi with a slight smile.
Yuxi was very surprised, it turned out that the master's appearance had hardly changed at all except for her dress, and she was still the same as she was back then, but now, can the master recognize her?
Yuxi calmed down, and slightly opened her lips and shouted: "Boss Yu, hello, I'm Mu Yuxi!"
Boss Yu looked Yuxi up and down, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "It's really Yuxi, it looks really like, the nose, eyes, and mouth have really not changed at all, this is a thousand years later." Well, I'll wait until I figure it out. ”
Boss Yu was calm and relaxed, and strode over: "Ah, the two guests have made you wait for a long time, I heard from my guy about you yesterday, I really feel deeply honored, I didn't expect you to fall in love with my treasure of the town store, hahaha!"
After speaking, Boss Yu looked at Ruiqi and said, "What is this gentleman called?"
Seeing Boss Yu's polite appearance, Yuxi hurriedly introduced: "Boss Yu, he is Hu Ruiqi." ”
"Hu Ruiqi, hahaha, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet two young people who know the goods here, it seems that your knowledge is extraordinary!"
Yuxi couldn't help but be a little disappointed when she saw that Boss Yu didn't recognize her and Ruiqi immediately as expected, but began to circle with them.
Although Yuxi had already recognized the master, the master did not immediately reveal his identity to her, but said polite words, completely treating them as guests buying goods.
Yuxi was a little puzzled, was the master confused, didn't he see that she was Murong Yuxi, and the one next to her was Huyan Ruiqi they were looking for?
Yuxi didn't know what medicine was sold in the master's gourd, but she just chatted with the master quietly and politely.
Boss Yu asked Yuxi, "Does Miss Mu like my sword?"
Yu Xiwan smiled: "Yes, I like it very much, but I don't know if Boss Yu is willing to cut his love?"
Boss Yu stroked his beard and said: "This sword has been with me for many years, and I can't tell how many years it is, but I have been reluctant to sell it to others, so I still keep it, so why did you fall in love with this sword?"
Yuxi heard him say this, and knew that the master was inquiring about the details of the two of them, maybe he couldn't determine their identities yet, so he was slowly tricking them up.
So Yuxi said: "This sword is called Qiankun Sword, I have seen it when I was a child, but since I left home, I have never seen this Qiankun Sword again, so when I saw the sword here, I felt familiar, so I wanted to ask carefully." ”
Boss Yu stroked his beard and smiled, "Where did Miss Namu see this sword?"
Yuxi said eloquently: "It's in Yuxu Mountain, my master's place." ”
When Boss Yu heard this, his heart was shocked, and sure enough, it was Yuxi, "Then your master's surname is Gao?"
Yu Xi said word by word: "My master is called Xuanji Hermit. ”
When Yuxi said this, Ruiqi couldn't help but be stunned, he hadn't heard Yuxi say this before, but when he said it now, he couldn't help but be surprised, but Ruiqi listened quietly to Yuxi and Boss Yu's conversation.
Boss Yu looked at Yuxi and showed a kind smile: "Did the master leave you any tokens?"
Yu Xi took out the dragon's blood stone necklace from her collar: "Boss Yu, look at this, I believe you must recognize it!"
After speaking, she handed the necklace to Boss Yu.
Boss Yu took the dragon's bloodstone necklace in his hand, carefully stroked the red dragon's bloodstone, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.
"Alas, after all these years, you are still here. ”
After speaking, Boss Yu couldn't help but be excited, and tears flashed in the corners of his eyes: "Yuxi, are you okay for so many years?"
Yuxi wiped her tears, knelt down with a plop, and kowtowed to the master: "Master, you finally recognize me, I am Yuxi!"
Xuanji Hermit immediately stood up and helped her up with both hands, "Yuxi, I haven't seen you for so many years, I don't know where you are?
Saying that, the Xuanji hermit wiped the corners of his eyes and held back his sadness.
Yuxi sobbed in a low voice, her eyes were misty with tears, and she thought to herself, she had finally found her master, maybe except for Ruiqi, the master was her only relative in this world.
You must know that Yuxi and the master reunited after a thousand years of separation. There are many details in the middle that ordinary people can figure out.
Even if you elaborate on it, you can't explain it clearly in a few words.
Ruiqi looked at the master and apprentice in surprise, almost dumbfounded, he didn't expect Yuxi to find his master in Lijiang, thousands of miles away, which is a thing worth celebrating.
Yuxi sobbed for a while, took Ruiqi's hand, and looked at the master: "Master, he is Ruiqi, and I also found him, but there are many things that Ruiqi still don't understand, let's talk about it slowly in the future." ”
When Ruiqi saw that Yuxi had talked about him, she said to her: "You master and apprentice have finally met, congratulations, but if there is anything you don't understand, please tell me more." ”
Xuanji Hermit said with a smile: "Ruiqi, we have a lot of things to tell you in the future, but now is not the time, let's find a chance to meet in the future and talk slowly!"
On that day, the Xuanji hermit entertained Yuxi and Ruiqi to dinner together, and recounted their experiences over the years.
It turned out that after the Xuanji hermit left the Western Regions, he wandered the world.
In the long years, he has experienced countless changes of dynasties, experienced vicissitudes, and witnessed the sufferings and joys and sorrows of the world.
By this time, the hermit was not only the owner of an antique shop, but also an expert in a mysterious organization.
This organization is a research institute under a certain department that specializes in mysteries.
The Xuanji hermit is the main member of this organization, and his identity is mysterious and he never publicizes it.
In his spare time, he is the owner of an antique shop, and the rest of the time he assists in the study of mysterious phenomena.
Therefore, the antique shop is just a prop used by the Xuanji hermit to cover his identity, and his true identity actually belongs to that research institute.
After all, his experience and skills are not possessed by ordinary people, so he is very important to the organization, and many things can be solved under his guidance.
As for the matter of the Book of Heaven, the Xuanji hermit did not reveal any news to the organization, this matter has been buried in his heart for a long time, and he has not confided in others at all.
Because he hasn't seen Yuxi and Ruiqi, the Xuanji hermit hides this matter, wanting to wait until one day to find Yuxi and Ruiqi, and then pass on the mission.
Yuxi privately revealed to her master that she had traveled through time and space to come to this world, and she never expected to meet her master in Lijiang, nor did she expect to find Ruiqi at the Asian Academy of Fine Arts.
Everything is coincidental and not written, it seems that God has predestined it, so the task of inheriting the Book of Heaven in the future is an ironclad fact.
As for how to accomplish the mission, it is up to the master and apprentice to think carefully in the future.
