Chapter Thirty-Eight: Master Niang
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, nearly two years have passed.
On the peak of the falling moon, it is the turn of spring and summer. As far as the eye can see, the ancient trees are towering, the greenery is patchy, and the entire peak is transformed into a sea of green. I don't know how many years these ancient trees have survived, the leaves are as big as sunflowers, and the texture is compact. The houses where everyone lives are covered by these green leaves, and the wisps of sunlight shine through the gaps in the leaves, making it seem deep and quiet.
In the past two years, Liu Zifeng has not been slacking off for a day and has worked hard. He has grown a little taller, not much worse than his elder brother, his body is stronger and more powerful, his face is slightly thin, his hair has been cut off a lot, and he looks capable and concise.
In addition to daily cultivation, he occasionally went out hunting with the fourth senior brother Su Li, and he also experienced many dangers during the period, and he also looked good at fighting with ordinary people.
On this day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and Elder Ji returned to the Falling Moon Palace, accompanied by a * beautiful woman. Soon after the two returned, they summoned everyone to the Falling Moon Palace, even Ji Zhongyang, who was in retreat.
Everyone heard the master's summons, and they didn't know what was going on, so they hurriedly went to the direction of the hall.
Su Li was the last to arrive, and when he arrived in the hall, he found that everyone had arrived, so he hurriedly confessed to the master and stood aside.
Among the people in the hall, except for Liu Zifeng, Fortune Divination and Su Li, others have more or less seen this master, and when they saw the beautiful woman next to Elder Ji who looked about thirty years old, they understood seven or eight points in their hearts. And Liu Zifeng started late, and Su Li, who was a few years earlier than him, didn't see this master, let alone Liu Zifeng.
However, among the disciples, Ji Zhongyang is honest and generous, Li Tiancheng is gentle and elegant, Yue Zixuan is playful and cute, and Su Li is the most intelligent and clever. At this moment, seeing that everyone did not speak, his eyes rolled and he stepped forward to greet him: "Master is above, I am Su Li, a disciple of the master, ranking fourth." I have heard that the master said that the master is as beautiful as a fairy, but today I am afraid that I will only have to be one-tenth of the master. ”
After he said this, Ji Zhongyang grinned, Li Tiancheng completely ignored it, Liu Zifeng glanced at the fourth senior brother with a strange expression, and felt that his eloquence was serious. Yue Zixuan stood at the end of the left row, rolling her eyes when she heard the words, not knowing what she was thinking.
Looking at the beautiful woman beside Elder Ji again, Ruyu's cheeks faintly flushed with a hint of redness, and then dispersed, and said with a smile on her eyebrows: "Well, you are the fourth Su Li, I heard your master often say that he is very clever, but he doesn't put his mind on cultivation." ”
Su Li smiled on his face and said, "What the master taught me is that I should be more diligent in the future and live up to the high expectations of my master and my mother." ”
In the first place, Elder Ji already knew the temperament and personality of the disciples under the seat, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, you all sit down." This time, your master and mother came to Luoyue Peak, firstly, because there is only a moon of kung fu from the trial of the three halls, which is just to guide your cultivation, and secondly, it is also to be familiar with you and make plans for the next things. ”
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and I understood the meaning of Elder Ji's words for a while. In a short period of time, I am afraid that it will be until the end of the trial in the three halls, and this master will plan to stay in Luoyue Peak. As for the next things in Master's words, they are a little unclear.
Liu Zifeng sat in his place, and for some reason, he always felt that this senior lady had been secretly paying attention to him since he entered the Falling Moon Palace.
At this time, Li Tiancheng stood up and asked the doubts in everyone's hearts: "Master, I don't know what the next things are?"
Elder Ji glanced at him and said, "Then we have to wait until after the trial, and you can get the ranking." However, as long as you can not disgrace me, I will already thank the ancestor. ”
At this moment, all the disciples in the hall were embarrassed. However, Qin Shuyun, the senior lady, glanced at Elder Ji and said, "You, don't be discouraged by what your master said. He still has great expectations for you in his heart, as long as you work hard. ”
After saying these words, everyone said in unison: "Disciple understands!"
Elder Ji may have been told by the beautiful woman what he wanted in his heart, so he waved his hand a little impatiently and said, "Okay, okay, there is still a month of effort, you will go back to practice hard, and you are not allowed to go out anywhere." If it is still loose as usual, it will not be your skin. ”
Seeing that Elder Ji's face was not good, everyone saluted and retired. Liu Zifeng also saluted and turned around to leave, when he suddenly heard Elder Ji call behind him: "Sixth, you stay." ”
The others saw that Elder Ji had left Liu Zifeng alone, and they didn't know why, so they all left. The disciples in the hall, except for Liu Zifeng, the senior brother Ji Zhongyang did not leave.
Elder Ji was still sitting there, but Qin Shuyun walked over and pulled Liu Zifeng to the side and sat down, looked at him a few times, and said gently: "Your master said that the only disciple of Luoyue Peak who has voluntarily worshiped Luoyue Peak in the past hundred years is you, right?
Liu Zifeng had noticed that Shi Niang was paying attention to him earlier, and the reason why he sensed it was because of the cultivation of "Earth Ghost Technique". Fortunately, Shi Niang didn't know that Liu Zifeng had discovered some clues, and the latter listened to Qin Shuyun's question, and said with a straight face: "Disciple Liu Zifeng, I have seen Shi Niang." ”
After Qin Shuyun heard him reply, her eyes changed slightly, and then returned to normal. Seeing Liu Zifeng so positive, he suddenly smiled and said, "Good boy, don't be so nervous, my master doesn't have as many courtesies as your master, it's good to be more ordinary." ”
On the side, Ji Zhongyang also said to Liu Zifeng: "Little junior brother, don't be nervous, my mother is very approachable." ”
When Liu Zifeng heard this, most of the nervousness in his heart disappeared, but he still had some doubts about this master's attention to him before. However, I didn't dare to ask, and I couldn't talk about it, so I was a little embarrassed for a while. He sat there with his head down, and he didn't know where to put his hands.
Qin Shuyun saw him lowering his head, hesitated, and said, "Liu Zifeng...... Zifeng, Shi Niang has something to ask you, come with me. ”
After saying that, he walked to the back of the main hall. In the center of this moon hall is a bronze pillar and the seats of the people. Behind Elder Ji's first place was a screen, and behind this screen, there was a huge portrait of Qingxia Zhenren, the ancestor of the Luoxia Sect. Qin Shuyun walked over here and opened a door under the huge portrait of Qingxia's real person.
The light behind the screen was dim, and Liu Zifeng had only come here a few times, not to mention that there would be a door hidden in it under the portrait of the patriarch. However, he did not hesitate and saluted Elder Ji. The person in front of him is his own master, and he will not harm him no matter what.
Elder Ji waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be polite, and the expression on his face seemed to have something to say, but in the end he only said two words: "Go!"
Liu Zifeng followed Qin Shuyun's appearance, pushed open the door and entered, only to see that there was a secret room inside, the space was narrow, and it was estimated that there would only be room for four or five people to stand. Moreover, it seems that no one has been here for a long time, and the ground and the two stone platforms on the side are covered with dust. Qin Shuyun stepped in first, lit the oil lamp, and with the flick of her sleeves, the dust on the stone platform suddenly dispersed.
She sat on one of the stone platforms by herself, pointed to her side and said to Liu Zifeng: "Come and sit down, the master has something to ask you." ”
Liu Zifeng sat down as he said, his heart was also full of questions, but it was inconvenient to speak directly, so he quietly waited for Qin Shuyun to ask.
"Zifeng, Shi Niang asked you, do you know a person named Liu Zikong?"
Suddenly, there seemed to be a sudden wind in the secret room, blowing the flame of the oil lamp in the corner and almost extinguishing it.
Qin Shuyun frowned slightly, and with a wave of her jade hand, she calmed down the light. glanced at Liu Zifeng again, although he had some guesses in his heart, he didn't urge him, and waited quietly for his answer.
Looking at Liu Zifeng again, I saw that the momentum around him suddenly rose, and blue light appeared. Maybe it's because he has cultivated to the foundation of the "Earth Ghost Technique" mental method, so there is no blue and black qi appearing, or after he cultivated the "Nine Xia Xuanjing", something happened to the coexistence of the two, and no yin qi appeared.
After a long time, the movement around him disappeared, his mind returned to calm, and he said word by word: "Liu ...... Child...... Sora, this name, even if it is dead, I can't forget it. ”
Qin Shuyun heard from his tone full of unforgettable hatred, although he was a little puzzled why, the jade hand gently touched Liu Zifeng's head, and said, "So, you are Zikong's younger brother?"
The latter was silent.
After a while, Liu Zifeng raised his head, and Qin Shuyun was startled when he looked at him.
The young man's eyes in front of him turned blood-red at some point, and the expression on his face was even more indescribable. It's a mixture of anger, sadness, disappointment, and loneliness that can't be hidden.
Qin Shuyun forcibly endured the emotions in her heart and called softly, "Zifeng?"
After she snorted softly several times, the blood in Liu Zifeng's eyes receded, as if she had just come back to her senses. As if remembering what he had just done, he lowered his head and didn't look at Qin Shuyun, and replied in a low voice, "Master, go on." ”
Qin Shuyun also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked gently, "Zifeng, what happened, can you tell me?"
Liu Zifeng still hung his head and was silent for a long time. Qin Shuyun waited for him to speak, but no sound came for a long time, and the young man's body in front of him trembled slightly, drop by drop of crystal liquid fell to the ground, and a slight "snap" sound came from the quiet secret room.
A miserable dream, a cold reality!
It seems to have returned to the mountain village of my childhood, the darkness is shrouded, and all the figures have fallen, but there are still wailing voices!
A cold sword, pierced in the chest!
Is it that he used to care for me as a hypocrisy? Why can't I see it in the first place?
Why wouldn't it be better for you to leave me alone and let me disappear with my parents?
......
Qin Shuyun couldn't bear to ask again, only to feel that the young man in front of her was wrapped with a sorrow that was so thick that it couldn't be dispersed. This is just a boy who has just turned eighteen! I don't know what kind of suffering makes his heart feel like purgatory, and he suffers day and night.
She couldn't hold back any longer at this time, took the young man in her arms, stroked his cheek, and whispered: "Good boy, don't be sad, I'll tell you about your mother......"
