Chapter 7: Wind and Rain
The night is dark and dreary, the moon and stars are not visible, and there is not a trace of light in the night sky.
Zhang Xiaofan knelt at the entrance of the cave, and it had been almost six hours. Most of the disciples of the other sects had already slept, and even the last light of the fire in the cave of Dazhufeng was gradually extinguished in great reluctance.
In the cave, Tian Buyi seemed to say something, and Tian Ling'er shouted out almost immediately: "Dad!"
There was no sound, no follow-up, Zhang Xiaofan didn't know what was going on, but soon, Song Daren walked out.
Zhang Xiaofan raised his head and looked at the senior brother. Song Daren's face was full of unbearability, but after all, he still said ruthlessly: "Little junior brother, the master said that you knelt here to annoy him, and told you to kneel farther away if you want to kneel." โ
Zhang Xiaofan's heart sank, but his face suddenly felt cold and cold. It was a dark night, and it was raining.
Without saying a word, he silently got up, walked into the distance, and knelt down at the edge of the dense forest, under the ancient trees.
Song Daren looked at him for a long time, but saw that the figure of the little junior brother was gradually blurred in the rain and fog of the night, sighed softly, shook his head, and walked back.
There was a loud "boom", and there was a roar of thunder in the sky, and the white lightning swept across the sky with teeth and claws, as if the pitch-black night sky was split into several pieces. A moment later, the bean-sized raindrops fell like pebbles, hitting the rocks with a crackling sound. Later, it poured down.
In the blink of an eye, there was a fog, Zhang Xiaofan's whole body was completely soaked in a moment, his clothes were tightly attached to his body, and he was indescribably cold. He raised his head and looked ahead, and the originally dark night, coupled with the heavy rain, could no longer see the scene in the cave at all.
Between heaven and earth, it was as if he was the only one left, suffering here.
He lowered his head and remained motionless.
This heavy rain, but as if it was also punished by heaven, it didn't stop, the rain did not recede at all, lightning and thunder, roaring wildly on him!
The rain flowed down from his ** hair and slid down his face, Zhang Xiaofan's eyes were almost unable to open, but at this time, at this moment when there was no one in the wind and rain, he suddenly saw that in front of him, a figure appeared, a pair of feet, stepped in front of him.
He looked up with difficulty, and lightning flashed in the sky, and a huge thunder roared, and by that glimmer of light, he saw the beautiful woman standing in front of him.
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned.
Lu Xueqi was soaked all over her body, the lightning flashed away, and her figure also turned into a hazy shadow in the darkness. But Zhang Xiaofan clearly felt that she was in front of him.
On the night of the storm and wind, such a gentle figure squatted down gently in front of him.
The more the rain rains, the more windy it gets!
In the depths of the woods, there seemed to be a demon roaring wildly, making a loud noise.
A cold palm, with a slight trembling, stroked the tips of Zhang Xiaofan's hair, and said in a voice like a dream, on this stormy night, he said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, it will pass soon!"
โ......โ
"I'll be here with you!"
โ......โ
"Boom!" the thunder seemed to crack the night sky and shatter the heart. In the flash of lightning, in the wind and rain, when the cold rain flowers danced like demons, that gentle face, that pair of gentle eyes, like the sweetest figure in the dream, accompanied him.
In the wind and rain, she whispered to herself, facing Zhang Xiaofan, as if she was deeply concerned with herself, softly, softly: "You save me and protect me, at the cost of your own life, I will treat you in general."
God knows the pain in your heart, God knows that I can't share your pain, so I bear it with you. I always hope that there is a rรฌ that you can be with the lover in your heart, happy and happy together......"
The voice grew softer and quieter, and faded away. The wind and rain are even more wild, and the figure is so weak, like a grass injured in the wind, swaying. Zhang Xiaofan's heart was in a trance, like a dream.
The night is dark and dark, and the sky is speechless!
The wind and rain have been raging for a long time, and it has only been slightly restrained, Zhang Xiaofan's whole body is cold, the cold air has invaded his body, his hands and feet are already cold, he knows that if he continues like this, he will definitely be seriously ill, but no matter what, he is unwilling to get up and hide from the rain.
In this cold, there was a faint warmth from the arm of his right hand, which slowly swam in his body, resisting a lot of coldness, which seemed to come from the magic weapon Xuanhuo Jian tied to his right hand.
Zhang Xiaofan suddenly remembered the ghost-like woman just now, and thought it was Lu Xueqi in a trance, but at this moment, he could no longer see where the figure was, and he didn't know if he was gone, or if he had never appeared.
Thinking of this, a wry smile appeared on his lips, and he shook his head, and water droplets splashed. But at this moment, a voice was clearly heard: "Silly boy!"
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned, hurriedly turned around, and almost called out "Senior Sister Lu". But I saw a woman slowly walking out of the depths of the dense forest, with an umbrella in her hand to shield herself from the wind and rain, looking at him with a smile, but it was the person he never expected to see here-the demon girl Baguio.
At this time, in the night, although the rain was a little lighter than before, it was still quite heavy, and it was not really visible from a distance. Zhang Xiaofan thought he was dazzled, but when he looked at it, it was really Baguio, and he walked over with a smile on his face.
I saw that she was still dressed in green clothes, and she was still holding the green oilcloth umbrella in her hand. But the wind and rain were too strong, and the edges of her fluttering clothes were also wet in several places. When I walked to the front, I saw more and more clearly, those few places were wet with water, soft and soft on the skin, looming.
Zhang Xiaofan suddenly lowered his head and didn't look at her.
Baguio was stunned for a moment, squatted down in front of him, glanced at him up and down, chuckled, and said, "You are really weird, such a heavy rain, you have to kneel here, isn't this also the cultivation method in your Qingyun Sect?"
Zhang Xiaofan glared at her angrily, but saw Baguio's pretty face in this night, unexpectedly gentle as water, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Boom!" thunder rumbled, coming from the dark clouds on the horizon. Almost a moment earlier, a huge bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, splitting the night sky in half, flashing before it faded. With this lightning and thunder, the rain in the sky became heavy again.
Baguio frowned, and the man leaned forward. Zhang Xiaofan suddenly realized that the raindrops that had been hurting on his body suddenly decreased, and the whole person seemed to have been suddenly liberated under heavy pressure, and he relaxed.
He looked up, but it was Baguio who had moved the umbrella halfway to block the rain for him. But how heavy the rain was, Baguio could take care of Zhang Xiaofan, and he inevitably missed something, and half of his body was wet in a blink of an eye.
Zhang Xiaofan felt a warm feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and push the umbrella over, and said in a low voice: "You just fell seriously ill in the blood dripping cave, be careful of catching a cold." โ
Baguio seemed to be stunned for a moment and looked at Zhang Xiaofan.
Zhang Xiaofan was surprised by her and said, "What's wrong?"
Baguio pursed his lips and smiled, but his eyes seemed to be very happy, and said, "It turns out that you, a kid, still know how to care about my body?"
Zhang Xiaofan's face turned red, but fortunately, in this stormy night, it was difficult to see, and he said at the moment: "I'm afraid that if you get sick, you will blame me again." โ
Baguio leaned closer to him, and squatted side by side with him when he landed, the difference was that Zhang Xiaofan knelt on the ground, while Baguio squatted next to him. At the same time, Baguio's umbrella was moved over again, blocking the two of them from the wind and rain.
Zhang Xiaofan only felt that in the wind and rain, there was a faint gentleness, faint fragrance around him, which came secretly, and couldn't help but look to the side, but he didn't want Baguio to look at him, the two looked at each other, and they were stunned. After a while, Zhang Xiaofan first looked away, but for some reason, his heart began to beat violently.
And Baguio, who has always been very good at talking, also quieted down at the moment, quietly squatting beside Zhang Xiaofan, accompanying him, but when he was not paying attention, he quietly moved the umbrella to Zhang Xiaofan's body, blocking him a little more wind and rain.
"Ah!" Zhang Xiaofan, who was in a state of silence and confusion, suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but cry out, and immediately looked back at Baguio, with an anxious look on his face, and said hurriedly: "You, how can you come here?"
Baguio was not too surprised by his reaction, only smiled faintly, his voice was faint, in the sound of wind and rain, with some confusion: "I came to see you!"
Zhang Xiaofan lowered his voice, but the anxiety in his voice was overflowing, and said: "There are people in our righteous path all around here, not to mention those predecessors of Tianyin Temple and Incense Valley, even if an elder comes out of our Qingyun Gate, you will die without a place to be buried." Why don't you go quickly?"
Baguio didn't seem to be indifferent, just looked at Zhang Xiaofan's anxious look with a smile, suddenly sighed, and said, "You stinky boy, you can be regarded as having a little conscience!"
Zhang Xiaofan was dumbfounded for a while, speechless.
I only heard Baguio whispering: "Aren't you claiming to be righteous? Aren't you the right and the evil at the same time? Why don't you call someone to arrest me?"
Zhang Xiaofan was anxious, and when he heard her words, he felt like he had been empowered, his heart was shocked, and his whole body broke out in a cold sweat. Although he is not as qualified and extremely smart as Lin Jingyu and his senior sister Tian Ling'er in the eyes of outsiders, he is not a fool after all, but no one has paid attention to him on Dazhu Peak all these years, which makes him a little inferior.
At this moment, after listening to Baguio's seemingly disgusting words, Zhang Xiaofan reacted immediately, and his situation at this moment was really inappropriate. Don't say that you are still guilty of being punished by the master, but at this moment, you were discovered by people in the same sect, and you are actually with this demon girl as if you are intimate, but I am afraid that I can't tell the difference between my mouth and mouth.
Thinking of this consequence, Zhang Xiaofan had a "buzz" in his head, and he didn't dare to continue thinking about it no matter what. In a mess in her heart, she was about to open her mouth to shout at the same door, but when she glanced at it, she saw Baguio's shoulder leaning against her side, and at this moment, it was windy and rainy, but she covered most of the umbrella on her head, and half of her body was already soaked.
The garment, clinging to her skin, reflected in his eyes. Even on her snow-white face, there were a few bits of rain, which condensed into beads and slowly slipped down.
Zhang Xiaofan couldn't make this shout anyway.
"You, why are you suffering?" Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head and said softly: "I also guessed that your father must be a big man, presumably you are also a pampered eldest lady, why do you take such a big risk to come here to suffer for the sake of my little Qingyun disciple?"
The wind and rain are bleak, the heavens and the earth are slaughtered, and in the vast night rain, it seems that in the whole world, there is only this one place left, and there are only the two of them.
Baguio seemed to feel a little cold, and leaned closer to Zhang Xiaofan, this action was both intimate and familiar, just like the scene when the two of them were in the blood dripping cave.
Her voice was also a little fluctuating at the moment: "No, I didn't suffer. You don't know, the real suffering in this world is in people's hearts......"
Her voice gradually lowered, and the words behind her gradually became inaudible, but Zhang Xiaofan suddenly realized that she quietly leaned her head on her shoulder.
The sound of wind and rain whistled by, but Zhang Xiaofan only felt that his mind was blank.
Only the faint fragrance beside him, in this cold wind and rain, is so real around him.
In the early morning, the clouds open and the rain stops.
Tian Buyi walked out of the cave alone, and saw his little apprentice from a distance, still kneeling at the edge of the dense forest in the distance, motionless.
He frowned and walked over. Walking closer, Zhang Xiaofan heard the voice, raised his head, and saw that it was Master Tian Buyi, his mouth moved twice, and he called in a low voice: "Master." โ
Tian Buyi saw that his clothes were all soaked, there were droplets of water dripping from time to time on his head, and his face looked even pale, obviously he suffered a lot from the torrential rain last night.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help frowning, and at this moment, he heard a faint voice coming from the row of caves behind him, and he thought that the disciples of various sects had risen. Tian Buyi snorted, walked towards the woods, and when he passed by Zhang Xiaofan's side, he said lightly: "You come with me!"
Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly responded, and was about to get up, but his body only stood up halfway, and suddenly his feet were weak, and he fell down again, only to feel that his feet were numb and sore, thinking that it was caused by kneeling for a night.
Tian Buyi walked in front, his body stopped, and he seemed to hesitate, but he still didn't look back, and still walked straight forward.
Zhang Xiaofan gritted his teeth and used his hands to beat and massage his legs. Fortunately, he is not a pampered person, and the body that he trained when he was cutting bamboo at Dazhu Peak has responded at this moment, and after a while, his qi and blood are a little smoother, and he can walk.
Zhang Xiaofan stood up and looked forward, but saw that Tian Buyi's figure was about to disappear into the woods, so he hurriedly ran to follow. Not long after, when the righteous disciples in the cave came out, the two of them were no longer visible.
In the woods on Liubo Mountain, there are towering ancient trees everywhere, and big trees surrounded by one person abound, and it is a giant tree that can be held by two or three people, and it is actually seen from time to time. I think it's because it's in the middle of nowhere, and it's never been inhabited.
Zhang Xiaofan followed behind Tian Buyi and walked slowly in the forest. The morning glimmer filtered through the treetops and sprinkled over the bushes in the forest.
In this forest after the rain, it seems that everything has been washed all over again, and there is green sรจ everywhere. Occasionally, there are unknown small flowers, blooming in lonely and uninhabited places, exuding a faint fragrance.
Tian Buyi walked in front of him, silent and silent. He was short and fat, and Zhang Xiaofan was already half a head taller than him at this time, but in Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, the figure of that person seemed to be as tall as a mountain god. What's more, at this moment in his heart, Baguio's affairs are also pressing on him like a hill, making him upset, and he doesn't know what to do?
Just when Zhang Xiaofan was upset and was thinking about whether to tell the master about Baguio, Tian Buyi suddenly stopped and turned around. Zhang Xiaofan's heart jumped and he stopped.
I saw that this place was already deep in the woods, and the surroundings were quiet and uninhabited, and there was no sound except for the faint sound of birdsong in the distance.
Tian Buyi looked him up and down, and said expressionlessly: "You have been in the rain all night, and your body is fine, right?"
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said in a low voice: "The disciple deserves it, it's okay." โ
Tian Buyi snorted and said, "You say it lightly, but in your heart, do you hate me?"
Zhang Xiaofan was startled, his originally pale face turned a little whiter, and he said hurriedly: "Master, I, I never have that kind of thought, I deserve it, and I will never dare to blame Master." โ
Tian Buyi looked at the little disciple in front of him, who had been the most neglected by him all these years, and looked at the anxious sรจ on his face, the corners of his mouth moved, and he sighed, and the look on his face was also gentle.
"Well, now that there's no one around, do you have anything to say to me?"
Zhang Xiaofan's heart tightened, and he secretly wondered if the master already knew about Baguio. Now the relationship between Zhang Xiaofan and Baguio is quite delicate, and when Baguio came last night, he was even more afraid of being known by the elders of the divisions, could it be ......
He was thinking to himself, but Tian Buyi was a little impatient, seeing that he had been silent, he said, "Let me ask you, why did you suddenly do that to your senior brother yesterday?"
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, and understood that the master was not referring to Baguio, so he was relieved.
But then he opened his mouth and couldn't speak, he couldn't say that he lost his mind because he saw Tian Ling'er and Qi Hao together? What's more, even he couldn't tell what the strange evil aura that controlled his feelings in a moment was?
Tian Buyi waited for a long time, and when he saw that Zhang Xiaofan was still speechless, he suddenly sneered and said, "Are you dissatisfied because you saw Ling'er and Qi Hao's intimate behavior together?"
Zhang Xiaofan was shocked, only to feel a loud buzz in his head, and the whole person stayed in place.
His unrequited love for Tian Ling'er in private was one of his deepest secrets, and he had never said it to anyone, but at this moment, he was suddenly coldly said by his most feared master, which was really more soul-shaking than the earth-shaking thunder last night.
In a moment, he could barely move, and he didn't even have the strength to deny it, he just looked at Tian Buyi, opened his mouth wide, and couldn't say a word.
