Chapter 4: Many Years Later

A Sichuan tobacco, the city is full of wind and flocculents, and the plum is yellow when it rains.

It is already the rainy season, and the rain in the south of the Yangtze River is even more continuous, and it seems that everything must be soaked thoroughly before stopping.

Guizi Town.

Two distant guests, one large and one small, traveled all the way to this Jiangnan town.

"Master, it is said that this town is famous! It seems that a master once lived here!" said the little girl in Tsing Yi happily as she chewed a sugar gourd in her mouth.

"Well, that master also has a well-known poem that has been passed down to this day. The young man in the green shirt, who looked no more than twenty years old, nodded.

"In the Huangmei season, it rains at home, and the grass pond is full of frogs. There is an appointment not to come for the night and a half, and the chess pieces are idle and the lights are dropped. It was the man in the green shirt who was sorrowful all the way, and his figure seemed to be still so thin and lonely.

"Master, I'm a little hungry!" Zhao Zhishui touched her shriveled little belly and said to Master with a little blush.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get something to eat. ”

"Uh-huh, okay!" Zhao Zhishui happily followed behind Chu Chou, it should have been months of travel, which made her forget the bloody scene of no thrills and dangers a few months ago.

Chu Chou left directly at that time, and did not go to the Yunyumen where he had cultivated, because now that the vicissitudes of life have long been different. And when he was cultivating in Yunyumen, it was when he had just stepped into the rivers and lakes, he was crawling there, and he didn't make any friends. The only impression is the flower girl in the alley outside the main entrance of Yunyumen, he will never forget it for the rest of his life.

Moreover, Chu Chou has no good impression of today's Yunyumen.

A sect that can be used by a wicked method that can be used by a little girl of seven or eight years old as an introduction really makes it difficult for Chu Chou to be interested in helping.

If it weren't for Zhao Zhishui meeting Chu Chou, then Yun Yumen's 'Pill Destroying Pill Breaking Pulse Technique' laid down in Zhao Zhishui's dantian would have attacked, and the result would have been to destroy a good seedling for cultivating kendo in vain.

Yunyumen is also drawn from the bottom of the kettle, and the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, taking Zhao Zhishui to attract the attention of the enemy, no matter whether the enemy can find Zhao Zhishui or not, Zhao Zhishui's avenue will be destroyed.

It's a pity to celebrate.

It's a pity that Yunyumen lost a natural sword embryo in vain.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhishui met Chu Chou and was able to stay safe and sound.

"Bean noodles are glutinous! Bean noodles are just out of the pot!"

"Golden silk finch ruyi roll! delicious and inexpensive, come and try it!"

"Time-honored pearl tofu! Don't miss it when you pass by!

"The world's first donkey meat wonton! Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground! Let you taste the best taste of the world!"

On the west side of the town, there are two stalls that specialize in selling delicious food, and it is time to eat, so there is an endless stream of people coming and going.

The sound of hawking, noisy, chatting, laughing, eating, and other sounds are mixed together, all of which indicate the prosperity of this ancient town.

Many outsiders, most of them literati and poets, will definitely not miss this town when they travel here.

Hundreds of countries in a radius, as long as you are a scholar, you know this town. This town, countless great Confucians, wise men and gentlemen come here to visit.

There are also many rangers who also come here.

Not only because of the poet who was famous in hundreds of countries back then, but also because the poet had a gathering here with the sword fairy of the world, drank wine together, and became a beautiful conversation about the harmony between famous scholars and famous Jianghu people. So this place also has immortals.

"What do you want to eat?" Chu Chou asked with his head down.

"Anything is fine!" Zhao Zhishui blushed a little, because she wanted to eat everything now, so whatever she ate, she could do it.

"Okay. Chu Chou saw through Zhao Zhishui's thoughts at a glance and smiled indifferently.

Chu Chou took Zhao Zhishui to a roadside stall, the stall owner was a middle-aged man, and there was a middle-aged woman washing dishes in the stall, the middle-aged man looked at the middle-aged woman's hands washing dishes with a little distress, and the middle-aged woman looked up at the shopkeeper from time to time, her eyes were gentle. It looks like they're in the mouth.

"Guest officer, what do you want to eat?" The shopkeeper saw Chu Chou sitting down, so he walked over and made a pot of tea, and asked.

"Bring me two golden silk finch ruyi rolls, and two red bean porridge. ”

"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute!"

"Zhishui, can you finish eating?"

"Of course, Master, I have a lot of food...... It's not that you don't know!" Zhao Zhishui looked proud, and he smirked there.

Chu Chou smiled indifferently, then knocked on the poplar table with his hand, looking at the cup of tea on the wooden table, he was stunned.

Back then, it was here, in this position, that he got acquainted with the down-and-out scholar. This location was an osmanthus tree back then.

That year, he was still young, and he had not yet become an invincible sword immortal in the sky.

That year, the scholar was also young, and he was not the champion of the East Pole Empire all over the world.

It's just that at that time, one by one they were more and more down, and it was in this place that the two of them met and drank wine together.

Back then, this place was just a remote town, but the two cherished each other and asked Qingtian for wine.

Both of them drank 300 cups because the girl they liked didn't like them, and no one knew the taste.

Chu Chou is a person in the rivers and lakes, for readers, after so many years, there are not many people who are impressed, really not much. Among them is this scholar named Zhao Luoxiu.

"Guest, the food is here! you use it slowly!" the shopkeeper came with a smile and put the food on the wooden table.

"Guest officer, two more pots of osmanthus stuffed!" Chu Chou said suddenly.

"Eh, the wine is here!" The wine had already been brewed, so the shopkeeper served it directly.

"Huh, Master, why did you buy two pots of wine? Wouldn't it be that you want me to learn from that hero and have a heroic drink?" Zhao Zhishui looked at those osmanthus brews, a little greedy, and wanted to taste something. It's been eight years since I was born, and I still don't know what wine tastes like!

"No, you're still young, let's talk about it in a few years. Chu Chou shook his head, and then said with a somewhat lonely expression, "This wine is for an old man." ”

Other people's deceased people are all hometown people or old people, but when they come to their own place, the old people are all deceased people. Chu Chou didn't want to think about it, when he was drinking, why did he think so much!

There is wine today, and let this day be drunk!

It's just that a pot of osmanthus stuffed seems to be a little less.

After eating and paying, Chu Chou glanced at the gloomy sky, and then took Zhao Zhishui to a small inn in the town.

It's better to come early than to come by chance, and it just so happens that there are only the last two rooms left in the inn.

However, these two small rooms add up to half a tael of snowflake silver, which makes Zhao Zhishui feel pain for a while.

When she was cultivating in Yunyumen before, she was a disciple of Yanchuan, and she only received a subsidy of one hundred taels of snowflake silver a month, and after walking for a few months, she felt that the outside world spent a lot of money, and she couldn't save any money, the most important thing was that when she escaped from Yunyumen before, she had to bring one or two snowflakes of silver!

"There are many places where the poor people have touched the money in their lifetime, and it may not be as good as the money you touched in a month when you were cultivating in Yunyumen before. Chu Chou seemed to know what Zhao Zhishui was thinking, "If you are successful in cultivation in the future, try to help some weak people as much as possible, don't learn from the master, the more you cultivate, the less you like to draw a sword to help, and you don't have the pride of drawing a sword to help when you were young." ”

"Uh-huh!" Zhao Zhishui nodded, her aura eyes thoughtful.

"Also, the stronger the strength, the more constraints there are, and the things that I craved when I was weak were slowly obtained, but I gradually lost interest. And what I didn't care about so much once became a complex that I couldn't let go of for a lifetime. ”

Many years later, in the new rivers and lakes with a new atmosphere, at the triennial martial arts immortal meeting, the female sword immortal, who had already become the master of the martial arts alliance, suddenly had an epiphany when she closed her eyes and recuperated, and cultivated to reach the peak of the nine grades, and chased her sword immortal master back then, and became invincible in the sky and the world, because she finally understood what the master said many years ago, and there was no joy of improving her strength again, but she burst into tears, which made the grandmaster of Kyushu in the world all dumbfounded, but no one dared to talk about it.

She didn't wipe away her tears, let them flow, and then choked up like a little girl, "I know you have that in your heart." But, Master, I miss you too......"
