Time node: When Li Zifeng was recuperating from his injuries in the Prime Minister's Mansion

The sky is white, the morning sun shines through the clouds, a pale golden light casts on the earth, the birds make a crisp call, start a new day, the breeze blows, rolls up a faint smell of earth mixed with grass into the nose, making people feel comfortable.

Li Zifeng took off the cotton cloth covering his eyes, stood by the window and watched quietly, quietly feeling the freshness brought by the air.

This is only limited to feelings, his eyes are still pitch black, as if there is no end in sight, Li Zifeng sighed slightly, he can't remember how long he can't see it, let alone the alternation of day and night, he can only distinguish it by the direction of insects and birds, sunlight and wind.

He couldn't see anything, it was all black to him, and he even dressed and combed his hair casually, and whenever this happened, Lingxi inevitably came over and said, "Don't you always want to go out?" But the way you look now, you will attract the attention of passers-by." ”

Li Zifeng would always reply lightly, "I'm just a blind man, what do passers-by think, what does it have to do with me?"

The persuasion was fruitless, Lingxi also had red eyes, she looked at Li Zifeng like this, and her heart was dull and painful, but she didn't know how to say it, so that he could feel better.

In the end, Shen Zhiping has a way, Lingxi watched from a distance, I don't know what Shen Zhiping said in Li Zifeng's ear, Li Zifeng realized that he began to care about his image as before, Lingxi quietly asked Shen Zhiping, and Shen Zhiping only said two words lightly: "Qingyun." ”

Li Zifeng stared at the black in front of him, and his powerful palm unconsciously clenched the blind cane, when he first touched the blind cane, he resisted, in his consciousness, the blind cane was like a crutch, and he went out on crutches, and this life was like this.

He once threw his blind cane in anger and insisted on walking on his own, but again and again, he tripped mercilessly over obstacles such as thresholds. After Lingxi always picked up the blind cane, he hurriedly helped him up, "Why don't you use it as your long sword! ”

Li Zifeng was finally relieved and no longer resisted, and after several run-ins, he finally used the blind cane as a long sword.

As the days passed, Li Zifeng developed the habit of looking at the scenery every day, and he had to go to the window to watch for half a day every day. It's just that every time he sees darkness, he will still be sad and disappointed, Li Zifeng's eyes stinged slightly, and he walked out of the room with a blind cane.

In the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Zifeng disappeared, Shen Hongfei was anxious, he asked the guards in the backyard, and they all said that they didn't see him go out. Lingxi's tired housekeeper Wan Lin secretly searched for it in the house. But he still couldn't find him, and he didn't know where Li Zifeng was going, Lingxi Hua's face was pale, and she cried urgently.

Several people were about to go out to look for it, but they were stopped by Shen Zhiping.

Shen Zhiping was much calmer than them, he wasn't worried, but being so anxious was not only useless, but would also show his feet, once again letting the people of Lingye Palace take advantage of the loophole. He carefully recalled Li Zifeng's favorite place to go when he encountered sad things or frustration in the past.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Zhiping finally thought of a place, so he ignored the red-eyed crowd and hurried to a place, and several people followed for unknown reasons.

A hundred-year-old pine, the roots of the Wolong tree are rooted in the solid ground, the branches are luxuriant, and there is no trace of sunlight shining through. Li Zifeng was sitting in front of the thick tree trunk, in a daze, and didn't seem to care about the footsteps around him.

Lingxi rubbed her sore eyes, and wanted to step forward to persuade her, but was gently stopped by Shen Zhiping again.

Li Zifeng fell into chaos and lost his way. Although Xiao Yun, the secret guard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, had done a good job of 'helping' him to skillfully avoid obstacles that came at any time, he always felt that no matter how agile his reaction was, it was not as direct as 'seeing'. Especially when it comes to facing the killer of the Ling Ye Palace in the future.

The people around him, Uncle Shi, Shen Hongfei, Lingxi, as well as Piaoyun and Shen Yu, can't be by his side all the time. The more Li Zifeng thought about it, the more annoying he became, and the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became. He began to rub his eyes, desperately, hoping to see something, even if it was just a blurry shadow.

But it doesn't do anything other than make the eyes stinger even more. So he 'escaped' out of the room, groped his way to the corner of the backyard, tripped over the thick branches, and he simply stopped getting up, and just sat down and was in a trance.

"After venting, remember to go back to the house to eat snacks, after eating, you will be refreshed. Shen Zhiping's voice was gentle.

Li Zifeng was slightly stunned, remembering that in the past, there was a set of particularly complicated swordsmanship, and he tried it for a long time, but he couldn't learn it. Ouyang Ze didn't want to let him go because of this, he just taught him over and over again, with a stern attitude.

When he tried it for the tenth time, Li Zifeng gave up, he didn't care about the courtesy, and in the face of Ouyang Ze's sternness, after shouting indiscriminately, he ran away regardless of the obstacles and hid under a big tree.

It was early winter, the weather was very cold, the cold wind was blowing, Li Zifeng sat straight from early morning to sunset, and Ouyang Ze didn't look for it.

The more Li Zifeng thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, the more he didn't want to move, so he wanted to sit down like this, and at this time, a gentle and majestic voice sounded in his ears, "If you have vented enough, go back to the house and eat some snacks, and after eating, you will have the strength to practice swordsmanship." ”

That year, Li Zifeng was only ten years old, and when he saw Ouyang Ze coming, he didn't bother to get up, he wiped his tears indiscriminately, "It's that I'm useless, I can't learn ......"

Too much time has passed, Li Zifeng can't remember how he went back, he only remembers that when that set of swordsmanship was practiced for the fifteenth time, he finally learned it, one of the three great masters of the Hengshan faction: treading snow to find plums.

"What do you want?" Shen Zhiping walked up to Li Zifeng and gently patted him on the shoulder.

Li Zifeng came back to his senses, "It's that I'm useless, I can't accept the darkness." ”

"As long as you want, there's sunshine ahead. ”

Li Zifeng paused: He finally remembered that when Ouyang Ze found him under the tree that year, he persuaded him to insist: As long as you are willing, you can teach as a teacher until you can.

Li Zifeng's eyes were hot, and he said softly, "Uncle Shi, I'm sorry." I shouldn't have given up. ”

He didn't want to give up anymore, just like what he said to Ouyang Ze when he practiced swords that year: Master, I'm sorry, the apprentice shouldn't give up.

Shen Zhiping breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, go back to the house to recuperate, and I'll take you to Tianhe Teahouse tomorrow to sit down." ”

Li Zifeng smiled slightly. , he seemed to see the bright sunshine outside and the lively crowd on the street.
