Chapter Twenty-Three: The First Journey

The breeze blows through the soft grass, stirring the sun to wash away the faint fragrance, lingering around every peak. Chu Yunyi's hands were lying motionless behind his head, and there was only the pure white clouds and the ethereal distance in his eyes. Immediately after that, a melodious pipa sound slowly floated from the other side of the hillside, and Chu Yunyi gently closed his eyes in that water-like tenderness.

The picture like a comic book turned in my mind, one after another: there was kneeling on the cold bluestone of the cliff, and the father who was angry in front of him kept roaring, but the ring ruler shaking in his hand never fell to his palm; there was riding on the broad shoulders of the master brother, and the clear wind in the running continued to rush past him, and the sound of laughter lingered on the clear mountain peak for a long time; there were those who dodged between the tables and stools in the ancestral hall, and were about to be forced to the dead corner of nowhere to hide by the palm raised by the father, but it was a pair of jade hands of the mother who pinched the father's ears with a soft drink; and there was a Chinese New Year's Eve in front of the kitchen stove, smeared the flour on his hands all over Xiaomeng's tender face, listened to her aggrieved cry, and the evil smile on his lips suddenly turned into panic, and hurriedly hugged her at a loss to coax her; There is also the funny appearance of the second senior brother who accidentally fell from the tree when picking peaches for himself to eat, and the third senior brother stammered and made up lies for himself who made a mistake, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was recognized by his father and scolded the embarrassed look, the fourth senior brother, the fifth senior brother, and the sixth senior brother.....

Looking at it, watching, I don't know if my eyes are tired from seeing it, and little drops of water silently seep out from the corners of the closed eyes.

Eighteen years, two hundred and sixteen months, more than six thousand four hundred days.

How many periods of time does a person have?

Chu Yunyi has always felt that he is a wild and uninhibited man who advocates freedom, and only the vast world outside Qingluan Peak is the place where he should travel and adventure. But I never thought that the day when I embarked on the journey came, but I only felt so fast and so sudden in my heart.

Who doesn't want to travel all over the world and read all the vicissitudes of life, who doesn't want to kill demons and run rampant in all directions, and who doesn't want to be famous and famous.

But in the same way, who doesn't want their mentors and relatives to be by their side all the time.

Maybe growing up is a process of parting ways with the past and memories!

It's just a little reluctant, a little uncomfortable.

"Brother!" Suddenly, the sound of the lute stopped, leaving only a faint whisper with a whimper.

"What's the matter, Xiaomeng?" Chu Yunyi sat up and saw his sister who was already pacing to his side.

"I want to hug you, can I?" Although it was an inquiring question, he threw himself into Chu Yunyi's arms without hesitation after he spoke.

"Xiaomeng, don't cry, it's not like my brother won't come. Chu Yunyi patted his sister's back and said softly, but his voice was so small that he couldn't even hear it clearly.

"You lie!" Tears suddenly poured out like a flood from a dam burst, and the pink little fist also smashed on Chu Yunyi's chest again and again: "Senior brother went to the sect master, and he can only come back once in several years, ...... I...... Woohoo......"

Yes, once the senior brother has been gone for ten years, there are only a handful of days to come back, so where can he be an exception?

I didn't understand it very much before, but the night before the senior brother was going to go to the sect to practice after the Huayang battle ten years ago, he and his father stood and knelt together, without saying a word but not moving for a whole night. But now, I finally understand that I am not the only one who is sad and uncontrollable in this parting.

It's no wonder that my father doesn't want to participate in the Huayang Competition by himself, in addition to thinking about his own safety, there may be more hope that he can be by his side, even if it is a waste of that excellent immortal cultivation talent.

His chin rested lightly on the top of Chu Yunmeng's head, allowing the lingering cry to flow into his heart.

There is no way, many missions and tasks are still waiting to be completed by yourself, even if you don't want to, you can't escape the commitment and responsibility.

What's more, his qualifications that no one is amazed by, and the ambitions and aspirations that he has set up after reading all the classics of the Library Pavilion, if he is buried because of his own selfish thoughts, it will really be a bit too pity.

Shaking her head helplessly, she gently pushed away Chu Yunmeng, who was hugging her, although this subtle movement made her cry a lot. But just as he was extremely tormented about what to do, a huge force slammed into his side with a loud shout.

"Girl, don't panic, with me Qin Shaoxia here, look at how the young man dares to continue to make a mistake!" I saw that the young man in the fiery red robe grabbed Chu Yunmeng's long sleeves, held her body that was about to fall, smiled slightly, and then turned around and rushed towards Chu Yunyi, who had already flown out for several feet, and I don't know when a flowing flame appeared in his right hand: "Bold thief, look where you are still running!"

Although the speed of the young man in red was fast, he paused for a moment beside Chu Yunmeng after all, and in a short moment, Chu Yunyi had already stood up firmly with a carp, and then drew a cloud hand on his right arm without panic, and slapped out a heavy palm, only to see a thick water curtain blocking in front of the young man in red like a shield.

There was a deep muffled sound from the intersection of water and fire, and the red-clothed young man who was frozen was about to change his moves, but he didn't want the heavy water curtain to be torn apart, and countless wind blades poured out from between the cracks.

Hurriedly took two steps back, constantly waving the flame-like fairy sword in his hand to block the continuous attacks, and just when he was overwhelmed, Chu Yunyi's green robe had already appeared behind him.

"Qin Bingyan, you can't win me!" But just as Chu Yunyi smiled and gathered two water jets in his hand to hit Qin Bingyan fiercely, he saw that he actually lowered his body without warning, and the arrow-like wind blade also rushed straight towards Chu Yunyi's face after losing the obstacle.

"Haha, that's not necessarily!" Qin Bingyan smiled and swung his body, and with a sharp sweeping leg, he kicked Chu Yunyi, who was busy restraining the wind blade.

However, just as Qin Bingyan was able to look at Chu Yunyi, who had fallen to the ground, and was about to seize the opportunity and make persistent efforts, he only heard a noisy and piercing sound behind him, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"You bad guy is not allowed to beat my brother!" It was none other than Chu Yunmeng, who made that sound, it was Chu Yunmeng, who rushed to the two of them while playing with the pipa in his hand, but saw her as she spoke, picked up the pipa and smashed it on the head of Qin Bingyan, who looked pained: "I'll kill you!"

It is said that Chu Yunmeng's strength, which is powerless, is definitely not enough to pose any threat to ordinary people, but when he saw that pipa went down, Qin Bingyan actually fell to the ground without resistance.

"Xiaomeng, don't, he's your Senior Brother Qin!" hurriedly stopped his sister with wide eyes, and at the same time reached out to help Qin Bingyan, who was frowning: "Hey, are you okay, my sister is a lady, she is not boring, don't want to slander people!"

"Hmm...... Uh......" However, this time Qin Bingyan did not like usual, and suddenly returned to normal to startle Chu Yunyi, but it took a long time to recover, but it was not surprising, and he was shocked as soon as he spoke: "That...... Brother-in-law, please bow down to my brother-in-law!"

"Looking for death, you!" ruthlessly slammed Qin Bingyan to the ground again, and hurriedly turned around and said to Chu Yunmeng, who was already flushed: "Xiaomeng, don't get me wrong, your Senior Brother Qin's head is indeed ...... It's really a bit of a problem, don't take what he says to heart!"

"Hmph, Senior Brother Qin is far worse than you, so I won't take a fancy to him, hate it!" Chu Yunmeng lowered his head in shame, then glared at the two of them violently, pulled the corners of his clothes and ran away with a red face.

"Eh, what do you call me ......" Qin Bingyan hurriedly sat up, and wanted to plead a few words, but Chu Yunyi covered his mouth stiffly.

"Hey, my sister is still a child, just joke with me, make her anxious, don't talk about me, even my father won't let you go!" glanced at Qin Bingyan fiercely and said viciously.

"Your father...... Belch..... Or forget it...... I don't dare to provoke people who can't fight old wood. When Qin Bingyan heard this, his head immediately shook into a rattle: "By the way, Yunyi, today is the day when our Huayang Rivalry Top Four went to report to the sect master, what time is it, why haven't you packed your things yet?"

"I ......" came to his lips, but it seemed to be stopped, so he shook his head helplessly.

"What, reluctantly?" the reality had already guessed the result, Qin Bingyan smiled lightly and indifferently.

"Hmm!" Chu Yunyi didn't respond with a smile, just nodded silently.

"Hey, I thought it was such a big deal!" Qin Bingyan suddenly stood up, and stretched out his hand to pull Chu Yunyi, who was sitting on the grass, up: "Let me tell you a story!"

"What story?" couldn't help but be interested, looking at Qin Bingyan beside him.

"Legend has it that in the desert of Saibei lived a flock of eagles, who could fly up to a thousand feet in the air, but they were able to do what ordinary birds could not do, not because of him, but because of the cruel trials of childhood. Qin Bingyan said, his eyes looking at the high altitude in the distance: "When their bodies are old enough to withstand the pressure of flying, their parents will carry them to the cliffs on the Gobi, and then push them down fiercely, so that the weak who are unwilling or unable to fly will die." There is no parent who does not love their children, and it is not difficult for those eagles to raise their children until they are old with their own abilities, but they have chosen such a path, because they know that only by leaving all the circumstances that support them can they truly learn to face the blue sky alone, face unknown challenges and difficulties, and become truly strong. ”

"Fly, Yunyi, you have your blue sky, no concern can stop you from soaring into the distance!" But a deep and generous voice sounded behind him, at the top of the hillside, Chu Xiuping, who was not tall but had extraordinary perseverance, stood with his hands in his hands, as well as Lin Wanrong, who was holding Chu Yunmeng in his arms, and the remaining fourteen disciples of Fengmen, facing the sun, looking at Chu Yunyi, everyone only had a faint smile on their faces, but there was no trace of sadness.

"Brother, this is the sachet I gave you with roselle, poria leaves and agarwood crumbs, you must remember to bring it. Breaking free from his mother's embrace, he rushed to his brother, took out a pale pink sachet from his arms, and tied it around Chu Yunyi's waist.

"Thank you!" gently hugged his sister with red-eyed eyes, turned around, caught the immortal sword thrown by Chu Xiuping, and rose into the air with Qin Bingyan, disappearing into the faint flowing clouds.
