I. Chapter 8 Parting
Looking at Jiang Ming's serious face, Chen Zhiyi was also interested, and said with a smile: "Your master and I are not people with great magical powers, and we can't understand the creation of this heaven and earth, but we are not greedy for life or afraid of death. ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Ming didn't know what to think, and suddenly said, "Senior Sister, don't worry! I will protect Senior Sister for the rest of my life!"
Chen Zhiyi was stunned, looked at Jiang Ming's serious face, felt warm in his heart, and said slowly: "Good boy, you are still young, you must cultivate the true Dao well, we don't seek to become immortals, but after all, you can't be bullied when you go out in the future." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Zhiyi seemed to think that Jiang Ming's cultivation of the Little Taoyuan Exercise was just a beginner, and he sighed slightly, and said to Jiang Ming: "You are a good boy, don't be discouraged whether you practice or encounter anything, believe in yourself." ”
Chen Zhiyi said, and then joked to Jiang Ming again: "Cultivate diligently, you still have a long way to go, maybe one day you will be successful in cultivation and see immortality." Hehe......"
Jiang Ming suddenly wanted to succeed in cultivation and make his master and mother happy. However, the "Demon Scroll Heavenly Book" is deeply planted, so it is naturally impossible to cultivate the Xiaotaoyuan exercises. And this demon sect technique cannot be exposed, Jiang Ming is also distressed.
————————
Jiang Ming's master, Li Changfeng, was originally not from Xiaotaoyuan. Just because of the fruitless search for medical treatment everywhere back then, passing through here, I hit it off with the owner of the small peach orchard. The owner of the small peach orchard gave Li Changfeng a nine-turn grass to suppress the cold poison, so that he could save his life. The great kindness was unable to repay it, so he was forcibly left behind by the owner of the small peach orchard and became an idle guest elder.
The owner of Xiaotaoyuan is also a kind-hearted person, and when he saw that Li Changfeng was not in good health, he did not let him accept his disciples. But Jiang Ming was picked up by Li Mengru two years ago, and unexpectedly worshipped Li Changfeng as a teacher.
Although Jiang Ming's cultivation method is slightly worse, he still stays at the first level of entry for two years. But Jiang Ming respects his teacher and is kind-hearted, and Li Changfeng and his wife gradually regard Jiang Ming as their own child. For the first time, Jiang Ming felt what it meant to be "home". There are four people in the Heart Cultivation Palace, simple and warm.
The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.
Li Changfeng sat at the table. Li Mengru and Jiang Ming sat on both sides, neither of them spoke, Li Mengru glared at Jiang Ming fiercely, as if she was going to eat him raw. But Jiang Ming directly chose to ignore it. Chen Zhiyi, who was in charge of the meal, brought plates of steaming dishes from the kitchen from time to time, and the fragrance was permeating.
"Come, let's eat!" Chen Zhiyi, who had finished serving, sat next to Li Changfeng casually, clapped his hands, and said with a smile.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, Jiang Ming couldn't help it. As soon as Li Changfeng moved his chopsticks, Jiang Ming also stretched out his hand to clip his favorite braised carp. As soon as his hand was stretched out, he was hit hard by a pair of chopsticks.
Jiang Ming paused, and saw that his master Li Zhiyi was looking at him angrily and said, "Forgot again, right? After that, he glanced at Li Mengru, who was sitting on the side silently, and said softly: "You two get up." Then Chen Zhiyi straightened up and sat up straight.
After the two heard this, Li Mengru looked reluctant, but she still stood up with Jiang Ming, and shouted in unison to the beautiful woman sitting upright: "Coarse tea, light rice, and three full meals are all the credit of Shi Niang (mother's parents)." With that, the two bowed deeply to Chen Zhiyi.
Chen Zhi was quite proud when he saw this, and said with a smile on his face: "That's right." This is the rule of our Heart Cultivation Temple, we must learn to be grateful!
Li Mengru's expression was quite disdainful, as if she was very dissatisfied with this rule. Even Jiang Ming was helpless, he had to be like this for every meal, he really couldn't stand it!
After the two of them sat down together, Jiang Ming began to devour them. Chen Zhiyi was in a good mood, and because Li Mengru was sorry for bullying Jiang Ming before, he even served Jiang Ming with vegetables from time to time.
Li Mengru, who was sitting on the side and didn't move her chopsticks, saw this scene and snorted heavily.
"Ru'er, why don't you eat?" Li Changfeng heard the sound and glanced at Li Mengru, and finally opened his mouth.
Li Mengru pursed her mouth and said lightly: "I don't want to eat, I have no appetite." With that, he snorted coldly again, stood up and left the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Li Changfeng, who didn't know it, looked angry, his beard was curled, and said, "This ...... Hmph, it's customary, and there has to be a reason for losing your temper!"
Chen Zhiyi on the side knew that Li Mengru was still sulking because of being reprimanded in the morning, so he also glanced at Li Changfeng and said, "Don't worry about her, it will be natural after a while." ”
After hearing this, Li Changfeng said a faint "um" and continued to eat, and after a while, he suddenly said to Jiang Ming: "That...... You'd better go and see your senior sister later!"
At the dinner table, because Li Mengru made a fuss, the atmosphere was also quite heavy. Jiang Ming quickly took two mouthfuls of food, got up and said respectfully, "Master, Master, I'm full." ”
Li Changfeng was in a very bad mood, buried himself in eating, and did not speak. Chen Zhiyi on the side smiled and said, "Go ahead, persuade your senior sister well." ”
"Yes, Master. Jiang Ming replied and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Hall quickly.
Although Jiang Ming often endured the bullying of his senior sister Li Mengru, for some reason, he just couldn't hate it. On the contrary, sometimes when I see Li Mengru being scolded for causing trouble, I still feel a little unbearable. No one can tell what kind of emotions this was like when I was a teenager. Maybe everyone has it, maybe everyone can't figure it out...... Or, too late......
Jiang Ming searched almost every courtyard in the villa, but he didn't see Li Mengru's figure, so he could only wander around aimlessly. Looking at the familiar grass and trees in the courtyard, I feel that everything is like a dream. Now I have a home, a master who is not smiling, a gentle and virtuous teacher, and a playful and agile sister.
Even if it's a dream, I don't want to wake up......
——————
The center of Wutong City, in the Wuxin Courtyard.
A woman who was as beautiful as a fairy said lightly to the two Wutong City disciples in front of her: "Two junior brothers, our Wutong City's autumn viewing event is coming soon. According to the custom of previous years, he went to invite Lingyun Sword Pavilion, the young talent of the Thousand Buddha Temple. It's just that this year the city lord has other ideas, so the situation has changed. ”
After the two disciples in front of them glanced at each other suspiciously, the older one asked softly, "Senior sister, has something happened?"
The woman said lightly: "It's just that Master has other plans this year, and I have already made arrangements, so you can do it." ”
"Yes, Senior Sister. The two said in unison.
The beautiful woman did not hesitate, and said slowly: "Senior Brother Xu, you go to the Thousand Buddha Temple." After that, he glanced at the younger boy in front of him again, and said, "Senior Brother Cheng, you go and invite the two nearby sects, the Little Taoyuan Villa and the King Kong Gate." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the disciple named Xu Weichen ask, "Senior Sister Yu, are you going to Lingyun Sword Pavilion?" ”
The woman was dressed in a light blue dress, with a slender figure, and carried a blue and white fairy sword. Reflecting her beautiful temperament, she seemed to be a little colder, and frowned and said, "Senior Brother Xu, is there a problem?"
Xu Weichen saw that the woman in blue was so cold, and just wanted to say, "No problem." The younger boy on the side opened his mouth.
"Senior Sister Yu, you don't have to let me do everything, I can already be on my own. It's okay for me to go to Lingyun Sword Pavilion. Believe me!" The young man named Cheng Li was afraid that he would not be able to move the woman in blue, and he continued: "Senior sister, you have too many things to worry about our Wuxin Courtyard, so let me share a little for you! ”
Seeing this, Xu Weichen, who was standing aside, hurriedly echoed: "What the little junior brother said is right. Senior sister, don't run too far, just go to the neighborhood, so that you can come back as soon as possible to share Master's worries. ”
The woman seemed to be a little hesitant, and she couldn't weigh it.
"Otherwise, I'll go to the Lingyun Sword Pavilion and let the junior brother go to the Thousand Buddha Temple a little closer. Now Senior Sister should rest assured!" Xu Weichen saw that Senior Sister was a little shaken, and hurriedly raised his voice and said.
The woman pondered for a long time and finally nodded, her face was flat, and she said slowly: "Okay, the two junior brothers must be careful on this trip." After speaking, he left slowly without stopping.
Although this woman was saying words of concern, she still gave people a cold feeling of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Seeing the woman walking away, Xu Weichen looked at the younger Cheng Li in front of him without tears and said, "Little junior brother, senior brother can get your wish now." But Senior Brother is miserable!" After speaking, he shook his head helplessly.
Cheng Li is a little younger, he is full of enthusiasm, and he has always wanted to impress his sister and brother. Now that the opportunity has come, he is also happy in his heart, and comforted: "Senior brother, although the Lingyun Sword Pavilion is a little remote, now that the evil demons have retreated, there is no danger. It's nothing more than a little bitter and dirty, and our Senior Sister Yu loves to be clean. “
Seeing that Xu Weichen was still worried, Cheng Li said stupidly: "I just want to share a little for my senior sister." If it doesn't work, let's change it again!"
Xu Weichen looked at the little junior brother in front of him, and thought about what he said was not unreasonable, and then said with a relieved face: "The little junior brother has grown up, and he knows that he feels distressed." Well...... Then according to what my sister said, you go to the Thousand Buddha Temple. As for your senior brother and I, I'll go to Lingyun Sword Pavilion a little tired. But don't be careless. After all, you're ...... for the first time."
Cheng Li's mouth glanced at it, and he interrupted impatiently: "Oh! Senior brother, why are you so verbose! What can happen? I'll go first." ”
Xu Weichen, who was standing in place, watched Cheng Li's not yet thick back gradually drift away, and his heart trembled for no reason. In the end, he was still worried and shouted loudly to the figure in the distance: "Remember to be careful!"
"Got it......"
Cheng Li's response was like a falling leaf, which finally disappeared in the autumn wind.
I wish the little brother a smooth and safe trip......
Xu Weichen stood in the wind for a long time, suddenly shivered, and muttered, "The weather is getting colder and colder....."
The city is full of plane trees, green and yellow. Soon after, it will be the autumn festival. Young talents gather here, feel the autumn leaves, and chant poems......
