Chapter 16: Time stands still for a moment
The warm sunlight fell on the stone platform, and the flowing water was rattling.
Su Ci glanced at the hook without bait, said nothing, sat down quietly cross-legged, the fishing line fell into the river, looked at the verdant trees on the other side of the river and said, "Do you want to learn Taigong fishing?"
"It's a pity that you're not King Wen," the old man's tone was filled with a bit of regret.
Su Ci said sincerely: "The seniors compare themselves to the Taigong, and the younger generations worship and hope for guidance." ”
Rulu sat behind the two and listened quietly to the conversation between the two.
Yang Xiu was still grilling the fish, still burying her head, and the smoke was curling.
The old man said: "You have two goals now. ”
"Yes. ”
"One is the glorious lintel, and the other is to find the red face. ”
"The seniors are very powerful. ”
Both of them spoke quickly, almost always at the moment when the last word was dropped, and the other would quickly answer.
A few birds chirped and sang melodiously in the quiet woods, and an eagle streaked across the sky and fell.
Su Ci said that he was powerful because of the latter, very few people knew about his red face, not even his best friends, and his teacher didn't know about it for a long time.
Hearing the old man say that he was looking for Hongyan, Su Ci was indeed shocked.
The old man's eyes fell on the fox fur laid on the stone below, and said, "That fox fur was given to you by that girl." ”
Su Ci's brows furrowed, and his dark eyes lit up a strong light of hope,
His teacher's status in Nanlin is on par with that of the Xilin Academy, and he doesn't know the news about his red face, and this fox fur is the only one he knows.
His body trembled, and disappointment drifted through the big eyes of the deer behind him, but it was fleeting.
Su Ci's body suddenly became very restrained, and he thought about what kind of etiquette he should use to meet him, and asked the old man to tell him the news about the girl.
But the old man didn't give him time to think, and said, "The old man is here today, not to tell you her news. ”
Su Ci frowned, and reflexively said, "Then what do you mean by this?" His tone was a little excited and displeased.
The old man said, "Didn't you ask me to give me?"
"You're not pointing," Su Ci quickly calmed down his excitement and said, "It's a show." ”
The old man laughed when he heard this, suddenly grabbed the gourd next to him and took a sip of wine.
Su Zi stared at the old man in confusion.
The old man abruptly stretched out his hand and pointed to the river: "You won." ”
Hearing this, Su Ci felt the force coming from the fishing rod, and although he was puzzled, he still lifted the rod.
But he didn't feel the strength in his hands, the old man slowly stood up, and Rulu stood up and looked at the river at the moment when the old man said Su Ziwin.
"Childe, it's a red light," Rulu's eyes widened, and he pointed to the river excitedly.
At this time, the old man was drinking, and Yang Xiu raised his head.
Su Ci felt the world shake in front of him, and he was dizzy, but the next moment, a breath of fresh air came into his nose.
When I opened my eyes, there was silence all around.
The excited deer's smile froze, it was a smile from the heart, and the old man's drinking action also stopped, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and the smile was very proud.
It was very strange that he saw Yang Xiu, who was putting down the grilled fish in his hand, whether it was his eyes or body, his whole body was full of caution.
It was a charged movement, and he was ready to run away.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a big wave in his heart, Su Ci's body swayed, and the fishing rod in his hand fell first, and the sound was very soft, but Su Ci heard it.
The world was awakened by this voice, and Yang Xiu's body rushed out, fast and blurred.
"Edgeworth rides in all directions, between heaven and earth," an incomparably heroic singing voice came from the distant sky, in addition to heroism, there was also wildness in it, it seemed that in this heroic wildness, the whole world belonged to him.
No, Yang Xiu, who was running, stopped in mid-air again, her hair flying and her posture exaggerated.
Su Ci saw a white light streak across the sky, like a meteor.
Then the wine gourd in the old man's hand turned into a drop of wine and flew away like a meteor.
The old man reached out and touched Su Ci's hair, Su Ci refused physically and mentally, but he found that he couldn't move away.
So the old man's hand fell on his head, just as he touched a deer.
"You have the potential to be the King of Wen now," this was the last voice left by the old man, and then it turned into a white cloud of smoke and slowly disappeared.
After a long time, the sun stretched the shadows.
"Lu'er, did you really see a ball of red light flying into my eyebrows?" Su Ci sat on the edge of the fire, but in fact, there was only a pile left in the fire, and there was no fire.
Lu'er was a little speechless, but still said bitterly: "Childe, really, really, really, you have asked three hundred times." ”
"Lu'er, you really didn't hear that old man say that I have the potential to become King Wen?"
"Childe, I believe you have the potential to become the King of Wen," Lu'er said helplessly: "You have asked this sentence three hundred times." ”
Su Ci thought about it, he didn't know that he would touch his chin with his left thumb when he was thinking about it.
His thumb stopped suddenly, and Rulu knew what he was going to ask again, but I hope I wouldn't ask again, she prayed.
Sure enough, Su Ci's originally dark eyes became very bright and looked at Rulu: "Lu'er, you really didn't see that old man's movements stopped?"
"And... Also," Su Ci pointed to Yang Xiu, who was tied up by vines next to him, and said, "Yang Xiu also stopped motionless for half a moment, as if he was frozen." ”
Rulu sighed heavily, stretched out his little hand and touched Su Ci's forehead, but Su Ci did not refuse.
"Childe, look at the sky, it's almost dark, and if we don't leave, we'll be sleeping on the streets," Lu'er was very serious, very serious.
As the sun sets, the earth is bathed in colorful glow.
Su Ci's expression relaxed, he got up and looked at the sunset in the distance, listened to the flowing water, and then kicked Yang Xiu's buttocks, in a good mood.
"Lu'er, don't call me a son. ”
Lu'er saw that Su Ci had finally recovered, and smiled,
"Then what do I call Childe?"
Su Ci said: "It's up to you." ”
Rulu stretched out his little hand and picked his head, feeling that Childe was so unreasonable, so he said, "Isn't Childe casual?"
Su Ci stretched his waist and said, "I'm casual, I said don't call me a child." ”
Rulu felt that Childe seemed to be stupid, so he said, "Childe, don't you really check your body?"
Su Ci raised his eyebrows and looked at Rulu, knocked her forehead, and said, "Why don't you come and check on me." ”
Like the roots of the deer's ears flushed, he bowed his head and said, "Childe is talking nonsense again." ”
Su Ci smiled, looked at Yang Xiu on the ground, and said, "Lu'er, what do you say we should do with him." ”
Rulu tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "Childe needs him to be whitewashed, so he can't kill him,"
"Um, what whitewashing? Do you know how to use words?"
"Hee-hee," Rulu said, "don't care about these details." ”
"Okay, you go ahead. ”
Yang Xiu on the ground swallowed his saliva, and his body trembled unobediently.
Rulu tilted his head, half-curled his lips and continued to think, Su Ci looked at Rulu, this little girl was very interesting to think of the question, he wanted to reach out and grab her face.
"Yes," Rulu jumped and said, "We picked his hamstrings and tendons, so that he couldn't run anymore." ”
Yang Xiu panicked, plucked up his courage, and said with a look of dying together: "Su Ci, if you dare to abolish me, I would rather die than help you testify." ”
Su Ci looked at Yang Xiu on the ground with a smile, and said, "Didn't you say that thirty years of Hexi, thirty years of Hexi? Why are we going to die together now, I am still waiting for you to take revenge." ”
Yang Xiu pursed his lips, still looking like he was not afraid of anyone, but it was a pity that his disobedient legs betrayed him,
Su Ci kicked it up and said, "Don't shake, I won't kill you, and I won't pick your hamstrings, but today you have to write a testimony to me." ”
Yang Xiu relaxed after listening to the first half of the sentence, and the second half made him nervous again.
Yang Xiu snorted coldly and said, "You want me to write a testimony, press my handprint, and then kill me." ”
"Hehe~" Su Ci said: "If you don't write it, you won't pick the muscles, if you don't write it, I'll throw you here to feed the wolves." ”
"Su Ci," Yang Xiu said indignantly: "You and I are also classmates, aren't you afraid that the dean will know if you do something to harm your classmates?"
"Classmates?" Su Ci squatted down and pulled a dogtail grass and dangled it in front of Yang Xiu's eyes: "You and I have never been in a class, what a bullshit classmate." ”
He slapped the grass on Yang Xiu's face and said, "Even if you didn't care about it when you arrested me and sent me up the mountain to death, and you didn't take my teacher seriously." ”
Yang Xiu had nothing to say, although they were in the same academy, they belonged to different academic levels, Su Ci had only been admitted to the hospital for half a year, and he had been admitted to the hospital for two years.
It's just that from the day Su Ci was admitted to the hospital, he had a grudge with Duan Xingyun, Yang Xiu was the number one person under Duan Xingyun, so naturally he would not let Su Ci go.
"I know that you want to kill me as soon as possible under the pretense that my teacher hasn't disclosed my identity yet," Su Ci slapped Yang Xiu's face again, and the grass was broken.
Lu'er quickly handed the dogtail grass in his hand to Su Ci, and Yang Xiu, who was told the truth by Su Ci, lost his momentum.
With the accidental death of Jia Wanzhi, the great Hong Shi of Xilin Academy, the status and prestige of Su Ci's teacher Gu Fen are no longer comparable, and even the emperor has conceded three points to Gu Fen.
Once Gu Fen announced to the empire that Su Ci was his personal disciple, then Su Ci's status would rise to a terrifying height.
This height Yang Xiu is afraid, and his master Duan Xingyun is jealous.
"To write or not to write?" Su Ci scolded.
Yang Xiu was so frightened that she trembled and nodded subconsciously.
Lu'er, who was watching the play next to Su Ci, suddenly said: "Childe, I... I..."
"I... I... I... What am I, what am I? Are you still embarrassed?" Su Ci teased.
Rulu's speech suddenly accelerated: "I want to smoke him." ”
Su words: "......"
Rulu thought that Su Ci didn't agree, so he pulled Su Ci's hand and was cute: "He hurt me so badly, let me whip him a few times, I promise not to beat him to death." ”
Yang Xiu's eyelids jumped, Su Cigang nodded, and Rulu suddenly took out a few extremely thin bamboo strips from behind him, obviously prepared.
Su Ci was very surprised: "When did you find it?"
"I took it when I was collecting firewood," Rulu's smile was still so innocent.
Su Ci felt that he was underestimating this little girl again, and said with emotion: "The most poisonous woman's heart." ”
