Chapter Seventy-Three: Awakening
Awakening
At night, the breeze is cool, and the light and shadow of the candle flame also seem a little lonely.
The little master sat alone in the hall, drinking tea.
The fragrance of tea lies in the lightness, elegance, and sweetness in bitterness. Since the little master came back from outside Chang'an, he didn't dare to close his eyes, he guarded Xu Chang'an night and night, and he also had to run back and forth between the palace and the Jin palace during the day.
He not only had to see Xu Changan come to his senses with his own eyes, but also tried his best to help or persuade the former Mr. Chai.
The children are not worried!
Therefore, he didn't care about tasting tea, and he had a virtue with the old and young masters who worked in the fields, so he made an iron kettle, put in a large handful of bitter tea, and poured the water in, and he could smell the bitter smell.
He just relied on cup after cup of strong tea to hold on.
I was so tired that I couldn't do anything, so I put my hand on the table and took a nap with my head propped up.
Xu Chang'an has not yet woken up, he is the only one who guards the lonely lamp and looks into Xu Chang'an's room from time to time.
He seemed to see the bastard boy wake up, standing in front of him alive, angrily taking the red burner to slaughter the eldest prince.
The little master woke up suddenly, looked around, calculated the time, and probably passed the hour, in addition to the birds and insects that were active at night, there were also tireless streams that continued to be lively, otherwise the lights of thousands of homes at this time would have been extinguished.
He thought about it, stood up, looked at Xu Changan, and found that the bastard had not woken up yet, so he shook his head and turned to leave.
As soon as he reached the door, he seemed to hear a voice.
The voice was soft and urgent, with only one word.
"Water. ”
The little master shook his head, probably because his heart had been hanging all these days, and he had auditory hallucinations.
"Water!" This time the voice was a little louder, and the tone was a little heavy, the little master was stunned in place, slapped himself, and it hurt a little, then he turned around and saw Xu Changan's dry lips moving slightly, and suddenly became excited.
He didn't have time to feed Xu Chang'an, so he hurriedly ran towards the master's room.
When I opened the door, I saw that the master was already standing in the center of the room.
The master's robe was draped over his body, and he frowned and said, "What's the hurry, isn't it just that the bastard boy who loves to be able has woken up, and he is frizzy!"
So saying, the master went out of the door.
The little master looked at the master's feet, and he didn't even have time to put on the straw sandals, so he went to Xu Changan's room.
He smiled, thought for a moment, and bent down to lift his master's straw sandals.
The master walked in front of Xu Chang'an, looked at him still muttering "water" in his mouth, and immediately raised his eyebrows, merged his two fingers, and picked up a column of water from the bucket, and the water column passed through the hall and entered the room without any damage, avoiding the windows, tables and chairs, and flew to Xu Changan's room with a gust of wind.
Seeing this, the master's fingers bent slightly, and the long sleeves brushed on Xu Changan's face, Xu Changan's mouth opened, and the water column completely poured into his mouth.
The master did not deliberately control his strength, but with a trace of resentment. The jet of water not only poured into his mouth, but also on his face, his clothes, and even his bed.
At this time, the little master happened to arrive at the door.
The master looked at the little master and went on to teach him again.
"It's taboo to do things, the hair is rough, don't you just wake up as a bastard, look at what you've become in a hurry!"
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Xu Changan.
Xu Changan slowly opened his eyes, only to see the light, although it was not too dazzling candlelight, but it still made his eyes hurt, tears flowed out inexplicably, he hurriedly closed his eyes, and then slowly opened his eyes again, and everything in front of him slowly became clear from blur.
Seeing this, the master smiled, and then snorted coldly.
"What can you do, a group of great grandmasters and grandmasters need you to rescue? Do you really see yourself as a great powerhouse of the Heaven Opening Realm?
Xu Changan only opened his eyes, and he was subjected to a burst of preaching.
"You're not going to wait for me to arrive?"
The master snorted coldly and turned his head.
He was facing the little master again, and he was angry, and then said, "One big one and one small one, they are not worrying. One is rough and rough, and the other is even more brainless. ”
The master sat on the chair next to Xu Chang'an's bed and snorted coldly.
Xu Changan looked confused, and didn't know what the situation was, the little master hurriedly squeezed his eyes at him, and then lowered his head, the little master, who had always been calm, was like a bear child who had made a mistake at this time.
Seeing this, Xu Changan was weak, but his brain was not stupid, his eyes were closed, and he hurriedly pretended to be unconscious.
The master glanced at the two of them and said slowly.
"If it weren't for my age, I wouldn't have bothered to accept you disciples. ”
The little master lowered his head and suddenly asked, "Master, Xu Changan has not officially apprenticed yet, can you accept it?"
The master glared at him, and the little master immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
"Bastard boy, don't pretend to be dizzy, believe it or not, I'll throw you out!"
Xu Changan could only open his eyes helplessly.
In his imagination, the master should be immortal and immortal.
The appearance of the master in front of him was not much different from what he imagined, but the master in his imagination should be the kind of fairy figure with an indifferent temperament, who does not talk much, and waving his sleeves to leave clouds.
But the one in front of him is similar to the private school gentleman in the grass house who hates iron and steel.
The little master has long been accustomed to the appearance of the master, and the smile on the corner of his mouth is almost unbearable.
In front of outsiders, the master is like a fairy, the dragon sees the head but not the tail, always wearing a white robe, coupled with a long white hair, full of dust, people can't help but want to kneel down and worship it when they see it.
But in his eyes, the master is similar to his father in his hometown, chattering, not saying anything directly, always telling them what to do in a lesson tone. And, many times, there will always be some nameless anger vented on him.
In the past, he was the only one who could bear it, but now that there is one more Xu Changan, the little master is also relieved.
The master's eyes widened, and he immediately looked at the little master, what are you laughing at, you are frizzy all day long.
"By the way, stinky boy, would you like to worship me as a teacher?" the master asked suddenly.
Xu Changan was a little entangled, although the little master had always regarded him as a junior brother, but he had no idea of apprenticeship.
The first is because of the lame, and the second is that he really doesn't have that much ambition to win over those scholars, and if he fights with those people, it will be a bit of a bully. What makes him even more unacceptable is that he is afraid that he will become a wooden person like Kong Dewei in the future, and a stubborn person like Chai Xintong.
The master saw his hesitation and spoke lightly.
"There are many roads in the world, and there are many roads that lead to the right place, but there are also many wrong paths that can lead to a catastrophe. We read and teach, we don't tell people what to do, we just teach you some tried and tested truths. ”
The master stared at Xu Changan and said: "What will happen to your life is all in your own hands, it will not change because of anyone, and all the right to choose is in your own hands." The Master stretched out his hand and shook it gently in front of him.
"Destiny and choice are in your own hands. ”
Seeing the serious master, Xu Changan was stunned.
Xu Changan hesitated.
Master is right, what you have seen and the people you have met are not the reason for you to become pregnant. Everything is in your own hands. Lotus, there is mud without staining, people, why can't you enter the abalone and leave the fragrance?
He figured it out, there is nothing wrong with the Wensheng and Confucius Temple, as long as he is good, everything in the world will be good.
But he still had one more doubt.
"But I already have a lot of masters. ”
The master smiled faintly.
"You can call me sir, a gentleman who only leads the way, not the one who shows the way. ”
Xu Changan knew what he meant, so he wanted to move, but he was weak, and the pain came to the bottom of his heart.
Seeing this, the little master hurriedly helped him up and sat down on the bed.
"The student has met sir. Student Xu Changan is physically inconvenient, so he can only do so. As he spoke, he sat down slightly and bent over.
The master smiled faintly, and then said, "Find a day to formally worship the patriarch, and you will rest first." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the little master who was standing respectfully beside him with his hands behind his back.
"I don't help your junior brother to lie down, one day he is frizzy, untidy, and his face is not right. ”
The little master lowered his head, took out a pair of straw sandals from behind him, and respectfully handed them over with both hands.
"Master, your shoes. ”
The master was stunned for a moment, his face was a little red, as if the words he had just scolded the little master were slapped back on his face by the straw sandals.
He was sitting barefoot in front of Xu Changan's bed, and from Xu Changan's awakening to the reminder of the little master, he found that he had been barefoot, and there was nowhere to put a pair of feet.
He took his sandals, put them on, and went out the door.
A voice came from the little master's ear: "Remember, don't tell your junior brother anything, let him come to me when he can act!"
The little master turned his head to see that there was no figure, he looked at Xu Chang'an, who was about to ask a question. The little master waved his hand and said with a smile: "You have a good rest, I can only tell you now that you are the most seriously injured." ”
When Xu Changan heard this, he put his mind at ease, he was the most serious, and that proved that no one died.
After the little master finished speaking, he walked out, leaving Xu Changan alone in the room.
He looked up, and the images from before kept appearing in front of his eyes, the giant beasts, the old man.
No matter how hard he tried, those images kept flickering in front of his eyes. And that sentence, too, has been lingering in his ears.
"My name is Lao Ao, and we will see you again. ”
......
The little master went out of the room, and after staying up for several days before he wanted to close the window and rest, he saw the master standing by the stream.
He thought about it for a moment and walked on.
"Do you want to know why I have to accept Xu Chang'an?" said the master lightly.
The little master nodded.
Although the master chattered like an old father, he was never a person who would force others.
He wanted to accept Xu Chang'an before, firstly, he became interested in this kid, and secondly, because of the Pingshan King Xu Ningqing.
The master never forced others in the past, let alone accept apprentices, and wanted to be his apprentice, so that his husband or the master's person could line up from Weicheng to Chang'an.
The master turned his head, looked at the little master, and said: "You are different, originally I wanted to take care of him because of Xu Ningqing, so I released the news and was willing to accept him as an apprentice." ”
"Master, isn't it because of the demon sword body?"
The master looked at him and nodded solemnly.
"How much do you know?"
"The students only know that this sealed demon sword body and the sealed demon sword body have become the sealed spirit sword body, but the difference is not too clear. ”
The master sighed and looked at the sky, a cold moon above the sky.
"This is a constitution associated with war, chaos, and evil spirits!"
Book friends who have been reading, I sent a full red envelope in the morning, a piece of almost 500 yuan, you can get it, you should be able to watch it for a long time.
