Chapter 172: Farewell in Advance (Part II)
Gu Ming's open and honest words resonated with Qiu Wumei.
Yes, the world is so big, where is my place?
Giving up the identity of a disciple of Vulture Mountain, it is absolutely impossible to go back again!
Back to the Qiu family who used himself as a bargaining chip?
Go back and be "sold" by them somewhere else?
You might as well stay here!
As soon as Gu Ming mentioned the Soul Locking Pill, Qiu Wumei was even more determined to stay here.
Yes, after taking the Soul Locking Pill, he is already completely something that belongs to Gu Ming, if he has the meaning of "that aspect", he has no room for "resistance", what else do he want to think about!
Qiu Wumei immediately made a statement, interrupting Gu Ming's intention to explain the topic of "Soul Locking Pill".
"I'm going to stay here, and I'm going to stay here wholeheartedly even if you're gone!"
I'm gone, I'm gone, are you cursing me to die early?!
Gu Ming misunderstood Qiu Wumei's meaning again, and his heart was on fire, and he didn't bother to explain the true effect of the "Soul Locking Pill".
"Hmph! This is the best! If you dare to be half-hearted, be careful of the pain of soul refining!"
When Gu Ming mentioned "half-heartedness" in his words, Qiu Wumei's face turned red again, and she buried her head and muttered: "No, no! What I believe will definitely not be half-hearted!"
"You can remember this! If you let me know what you have in private! Be careful that I make your life worse than death!"
"I see!"
Seeing that Qiu Wumei's attitude was much better, Gu Ming thought that Qiu Wumei would eat hard rather than soft.
Look, I can't cure you anymore?!
Gu Ming was a little proud.
Qiu Wumei was a little shy.
The two ended the meeting in a misunderstanding.
......
The Chinese New Year's Eve of the Li Mansion Chinese New Year's Eve was unusually rich.
There were all kinds of special delicacies on this table, but Gu Ming spent a day of hard work to prepare them carefully.
The conversation is delicious, the meat and vegetables are matched, auspicious and festive.
It not only meets the taste of grandpa, but also meets the needs of celebrating the New Year.
Li Laohan was very happy, these were his grandson's filial piety, even if he couldn't eat much wine and meat now, he still pulled Gu Ming to drink a few more glasses.
When the old man woke up, it was already noon on the first day of the Lunar New Year!
On the first day of the new year, Li Laohan opened his eyes and saw Gu Ming sitting on the chair in front of the bed.
"Hehe, Ming'er, why are you here?"
"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and my grandson has come to greet you!"
Hearing his grandfather's voice, Gu Ming quickly got up and helped the old man to sit up.
The servants around him immediately helped Li Laohan put on his coat.
"Good, good!"
After getting dressed, Li Laohan happily agreed, and at the same time reached out and took out two sealed red envelopes from under the pillow and handed them to Gu Ming.
"Since you are here to pay New Year's greetings, then you have to collect this New Year's money!"
Gu Ming took the red envelope and asked a little puzzled, "Why did your old man give me two red envelopes?"
Old man Li smiled.
"One of them is for the girl in the backyard! Although people didn't come, this New Year's money can't be less! The family wants to be auspicious and festive!"
I'll go, did the old man misunderstand something!
Gu Ming wanted to explain, but when he thought of what he was about to say, he couldn't open his mouth anymore.
Hey, just make his old man happy for a while!
"Okay! I'll come down and hand it to her! I'll thank Grandpa on her behalf!"
Gu Ming squeezed the Jinpa dry from the hot water basin brought by the servant before handing it to his grandfather.
After Li Laohan finished wiping his face and the servants packed up their things and retreated, Gu Ming sat down next to his grandfather with a stool and whispered, "Grandpa, I'm going to leave in a while." ”
"Okay! Now that you are focusing on cultivation, you should go back early!"
Gu Ming looked at the simple old man in front of him, he really couldn't bear to tell the truth, but he couldn't help but say it, because time waits for no one.
"Grandpa, I, this time I'm leaving Mochiyue Mountain, leaving Jiangcheng, leaving Zhongzhou, and going to Yuezhou, which is far away!"
Now Li Laohan understood what Gu Ming meant, he looked at the reluctant grandson in front of him, reached out and touched Gu Ming's hair, his little face, and said with a kind face: "Yes, if you want to go to such a far place, then you should leave early, otherwise it will not be safe at night!"
Feeling the care of the elders, Gu Ming was even more reluctant in his heart, he took Li Laohan's hands and said anxiously: "Grandpa, why don't you go to Yuezhou with me?"
Knowing that his grandson was sincere, Li Laohan was also very happy, but this was obviously not what he hoped for.
Li Laohan patted Gu Ming's palm, smiled and said: "Grandpa is old, and he doesn't want to go anywhere when he gets old! I have lived in this big stone mountain all my life, and I can't get used to it wherever you let me go! Now that our family has built such a big house here, I still want to enjoy a few more days of Qingfu!"
"Grandpa!"
Gu Ming wanted to say something, but Li Laohan interrupted him with a laugh.
"Besides, we have to leave someone here to guard this business, right? Otherwise, what if the foundation that our family bought for their lives is ruined by outsiders?"
Gu Ming knew that Li Laohan's words were indeed in his heart, and the truth was indeed the truth.
Now that the old man has said everything about this, although Gu Ming is reluctant, there is no need to say anything more!
He said a few words with the old man, and under the urging of Li Laohan many times, he left Dashishan in three steps and one turn.
......
Gu Ming returned to Moon Mountain with a heavy heart.
When he arrived at the gate station, Gu Ming did not go back to his yard, but sent a message to several of his friends who wanted to meet.
Liu Yeer, Tian Na, Xia Lang.
From the order in which the letters were sent, we all know the weight of these people in his heart at the moment.
Normally, Tian Na's reply should have arrived the fastest, but without knowing if she would come back, Gu Ming didn't have much expectations.
However, the transmission of Miss Sweet and Spicy has not arrived for a long time, which can only show that she is still in a state of going out and not returning.
What's even more strange is that there is no reply from the three transmissions today, which makes people a little depressed!
Forget it, time is limited, instead of waiting here, it is better to go and say goodbye to your other master first.
Just do it when you think of it, this is Gu Ming's consistent style.
He walked quickly to Mo Wentian's residence.
You don't have to ask to know that the old drunkard must be lying in the hall drinking again this hour.
The transmission to Xia Lang was not heard back for a long time, and when Gu Ming stopped at the door of the hall for a while, he heard Mo Wentian's lazy voice coming from inside.
"Come in! Xia Lang's kid was called by the Sword Sect, and I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for a while!"
Yes, sir!
Hearing the master's call, Gu Ming had no choice but to answer, and then pushed the door in.
Mo Wentian is still as sloppy as ever.
However, since the last sword duel, his attitude towards Gu Ming was obviously much better than before.
At least the attitude is not as cold as it was at the beginning.
Knowing that Gu Ming was visiting today, he not only took the initiative to let him in, but also took the initiative to ask him about the purpose of his trip.
"What did you do today?"
Gu Ming naturally felt the change in Mo Wentian's attitude.
He also clearly remembered the day when this man said in his ear: Don't be afraid, the teacher is coming......
Gratitude resurfaced, Gu Ming bowed to his knees, and reported to the master one by one about to leave in the near future.
Oh!
Mo Wentian was also slightly stunned when he heard it at first glance, and then it became clear again in an instant.
He nodded at Gu Ming, and then comforted his disciple: "True cultivators live forever, if you live for a long time, you will naturally experience more life and death! You don't have to be too sad, just cultivate with peace of mind, the days will be long in the future, and sooner or later there will be a day of reunion!"
Gu Ming understands this truth, but after all, he hasn't experienced much, so if he wants to think about it, he can't do it now anyway.
Gu Ming kowtowed three times to Mo Wentian dignifiedly, and then took out all the good wine in the storage bag and put it on the ground, these ten jars of good wine were all left for his grandfather after his eightieth birthday.
"Disciple remember the master's teachings! The disciple has nothing to repay the master's life-saving grace, but can only offer some fine wine and talk about his heart!"
Seeing the ten jars of fine wine lined up, Mo Wentian suddenly came to his senses.
With a wave of his hand, the jars flew to his couch.
Mo Wentian picked up a jar with his hand, excitedly patted open the wine seal, and poured the wine from the jar with a trace of wine line.
Haha, enjoyable!
After taking a big sip, Mo Wentian exhaled and enjoyed it, and then put down the wine jar and said to Gu Ming with a smile: "It's rare that you have a piece of filial piety! As a teacher, you can't take your things for nothing, this is a parting souvenir!"
After speaking, Mo Wentian threw a jade slip to Gu Ming, and then continued: "In view of your situation, I have thought about it, as a teacher, only this style of sword technique may be suitable for you! As for whether you can refine it or not, it depends on your understanding!"
After getting another treasure, Gu Ming happily put away the inheritance jade slip, and thanked the master again before happily leaving Mo Wentian's residence.
......
After leaving the Inner Affairs Hall, Gu Ming's most anticipated reply still did not come.
The excitement of getting the babe slowly cooled down.
It seems that we have no chance to say goodbye in person!
He looked at the location of the Spirit Beast Hall, and then looked in the direction of the Sword Hall, full of regret on his face.
With a somewhat trance-like mood, Gu Ming went to Lin Ziqian's place to sell his leave to the master.
Mingyue pulled Gu Ming on the side and walked in the direction of the two's bedroom.
"Hurry up and pack your things, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Gu Ming felt a little melancholy in his heart, shook off Mingyue's claws, and said weakly: "I know, what to urge!"
Mingyue's big eyes flickered as she stared at Gu Ming, who was in a trance, and saw that he was packing up his things without stubble.
It is rare for Gu Ming to have such a performance.
Mingyue is also rare to be smart.
He laughed and said, "Senior brother, are you reluctant to have these girlfriends in Mochizuki Mountain?"
I'll go, although those are not my girlfriends, my brother's current mood really makes Mingyue guess a few points.
"I'm reluctant to be a friend here, okay! Senior Brother Xia can't meet a righteous friend anywhere!"
Mingyue smiled mysteriously, "Hehe, that pair of twin beauties can't be met anywhere!"
It's rare for this mallet to be smart once, and his words are really hard to refute!
In this regard, Gu Ming could only be vague.
"Of course, these two senior sisters have a good relationship with us, and there are many places where we can thank others!"
"They have a good relationship with you!
Those who know my heart say that I am worried, and those who do not know my heart say what I want!
Let's stop dwelling on this issue, okay?!
However, being disturbed by Mingyue like this, Gu Ming's mood was much better.
He put the packed baggage into the storage bag and said to Mingyue, "Okay! Let's go!"
He closed the door of the guest courtyard and left the place where he had lived for more than a year.
The two followed behind Lin Ziqian and walked in the direction of the Imperial Sword Terrace.
Thanks to Lin Ziqian's transmission, there have been people waiting at the Imperial Sword Platform for a long time.
If it weren't for hearing the master clasp his fists and call the other party "Hall Master Ke", Gu Ming wouldn't have known that the gray-haired old man in front of him in a wheelchair was actually the hall master of the Deacon Hall.
After living in Mochizuki Mountain for so long, Gu Ming has been to the deacon hall countless times, and today is the first time he has seen Ke Yiqing.
At Lin Ziqian's suggestion, Gu Ming hurriedly respectfully handed over the identity tokens of the three masters and apprentices to Ke Yiqing.
As soon as we say goodbye today, as soon as the token is handed over, we will no longer be guests of the Mochizuki Sword Sect.
After the formalities were completed, Dongfang Weiming expressed his gratitude to Lin Ziqian on behalf of the Mochizuki Sword Sect.
After everyone clasped their fists and saluted each other, today's simple farewell was over.
Under the gaze of everyone from the Mochizuki Sword Sect, Gu Ming followed Lin Ziqian to the Imperial Sword Platform.
He kept looking at the way he came, and there was still a hint of anticipation in his heart.
However, the shadow in my heart did not appear after all.
Standing in the middle of the Imperial Sword Terrace, Lin Ziqian led his disciples to salute the farewell crowd again.
The Linglong Pill Furnace appeared, the spiritual power was gradually wrapped, and the three of them slowly took off.
Gu Ming withdrew his gaze from staring at the intersection and turned his head to look into the distance.
The cliff side is cold and windy, and the winter is unabated. Luo Ji is not tolerant of the five colds. In the dream, I don't know that I am a guest, a curtain of joy and sorrow.
Alone without relying on the column, infinite rivers and mountains, it is easy to see when it is difficult to see. Say goodbye to Xuwu, heaven and earth.
The most bitter thing in the world is that you have something in your heart but can't say it!
If you want to see it, you can't see it, and if you want to stay, you can't stay.
Say goodbye to Mt. Mochizuki!
There are as many memories as there are reluctances.
Farewell to the people I love!
