That night, Ouyang Yucheng came to the door of Yi Dan's room and knocked on the door, Yi Dan opened the door and looked at it, smiled and said, "Brother Ouyang is you." ”

"Yes, Dan'er, I want to discuss something with you, okay?" Ouyang Yucheng said.

"What's the matter?" Brother Ouyang," Yi Dan asked.

Ouyang Yucheng looked at Yi Dan with a look on his face and asked, "Do I want to leave here with you?"

Yi Dan looked at Ouyang Yucheng in surprise and said, "Brother Ouyang, the Knife Grinding Gang has just experienced a big mess, and many things need you to reorganize. You can't abandon them like that. ”

Ouyang Yu admitted: "I really don't want to be this gang leader anymore. Dan'er, do you know? Since the last time I parted with you in Songshan, I have regretted it very much. Every moment of every day, I look forward to seeing you again. I really regret that I didn't go with you in the first place, and this time you came to Guangzhou, I really don't want to lose this opportunity again. Even if I can stay with you one more day, I'll be satisfied, you know?"

Yi Dan lowered his head lightly and said, "I know, but Brother Ouyang, there are so many brothers up and down the Knife Sharpening Gang, all waiting for you to arrange." If you leave them at this time, maybe something will go wrong. ”

"I've spent my whole life working with the Sharpening Gang and I really want to have a little bit of time for myself. Don't you agree to my request? Or are you afraid that I will affect you?" asked Ouyang Yucheng again and again.

Yi Dan listened to what Ouyang Yucheng said, and was very embarrassed. Of course she didn't mean this, she was just worried about Ouyang Yucheng's body.

"Brother Ouyang, don't get me wrong. I just want you to rest here so that it will be better for your body. We are all eating and sleeping outside, and we are hungry, and you will suffer a lot of sins with us, which is not good for your health. Yi Dan hurriedly explained.

Ouyang Yu admitted: "I can't control it so much, anyway, it's death." If I can die by your side, I will be happy even if I am a ghost. ”

Then. Qin Zijin, who was hiding on the side, heard the conversation between Ouyang Yucheng and Yi Dan clearly. She was very sad in her heart, because he only liked Ouyang Yucheng alone. Before her death, her father-in-law, Qin Zhengao, entrusted her to Ouyang Yucheng. She thought that in this life, she and Ouyang Yucheng were a natural pair of talented men and women, but she didn't expect that in Ouyang Yucheng's heart, there was only Yi Dan alone. Seeing this scene, she sadly turned away and left.

At this moment, Lu Yonghuai walked out of the corridor on the other side, and he also heard what Ouyang Yucheng said to Yi Dan, so he stepped forward and said, "This is not good, you are the leader of the Knife Sharpening Gang." How can you get rid of the brothers in the gang and just leave?"

Ouyang Yucheng hurriedly bowed and greeted: "How is Uncle Lu?"

"I've seen Senior Lu!" Yi Dan also nodded hurriedly in greeting.

Lu Yonghuai said: "Well, I'll tell you as the former elder of Tingfeng Hall. The Knife Grinding Gang can now be said to be the aftermath of the catastrophe, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt. As the leader of the gang, your previous negligence caused my Sharpening Knife Gang to lose troops and suffer heavy losses. Now that you should reinvigorate your authority and take on the heavy responsibility, how can you be irresponsible and just leave? How can you be worthy of the entrustment that the Qin Hall Master has entrusted to you? How can you be worthy of those innocent brothers who died. How can you be worthy of your dead Uncle Zhan?"

Lu Yonghuai's words were reasonable, and Ouyang Yucheng had to nod again and again, ashamed that he had nothing to say. But he couldn't control his feelings for Yi Dan, it was really a dilemma. But the kind and chivalrous Ouyang Yucheng. In the end, he obeyed the righteousness.

At this time, Master Lu Jianyin and Master Empty Compassion walked over from the corridor.

"Senior Brother Lu, it turns out that you are all here. Lu Jianyin said.

"Yes, what's wrong with the two senior brothers?" Lu Yonghuai asked.

Lu Jianyin said: "We are here to say goodbye to you, junior brother." After coming to Guangzhou for so long, the matter has been resolved, and my master and apprentice still have something to do. It's time to go back to Yunzhou. ”

Master Kongbei also folded his hands and said, "Yes, the poor monk is also going to travel the world and promote Buddhism." ”

Lu Yonghuai asked, "Senior Brother Gongyi, are you not going back to Qizhou?"

Master Empty Compassion said: "Don't go back, just let it be." The poor monk has already figured out that he will never realize the truth if he is locked up in a house. The truth is hidden in all living beings in the world, and I will pursue and promote it. ”

Yi Dan said: "Congratulations to the master for his enlightenment, and he has reached a higher level." ”

Master Kongbei said: "Amitabha, the poor monk Guan Yi is a kind and chivalrous benefactor, and you are very intelligent, and you will definitely be a person who can benefit the world in the future." I hope you will persevere and keep working hard to save more people from suffering. ”

Yi Dan said: "Thank you Master for taking a good look at the following, and you must remember the teachings of the Master of Empty Compassion." ”

Master Empty Grief nodded, smiled and turned to leave. As he walked, he also said: "Come with fate, go with fate, and the bitterness and happiness in the world will follow fate." Don't be obsessed with it, leave empty sorrow in vain..."

Lu Jianyin looked at the back of Master Kongbei leaving, and said, "Senior Brother Lu, Ouyang Gang Leader, Miss Yi, you all take care, and our master and apprentice have also said goodbye to you." ”

Ouyang Yu admitted: "Uncle Lu, you master and apprentice should stay for a few more days, I didn't entertain the two of you well." ”

"No, if we have the opportunity in the future, we will see each other again. I only hope that Gang Leader Ouyang can reorganize this scrappy knife grinding gang, and don't let the hard work of the ancestors of the past generations go to waste. Lu Jianyin said.

Ouyang Yucheng said firmly: "Please rest assured that Uncle Lu will definitely revitalize the Knife Sharpening Gang and make this world's number one gang live up to its reputation." ”

"Well, then I'm relieved. After that, Lu Jianyin turned his head to Lu Yonghuai and said, "Old man Lu, you are already in Guangzhou, so don't hide." If you have the opportunity in the future, let's help this young junior. After all, he is injured, you have to make long-term plans for the foundation of your grandfather, right?"

Lu Yonghuai said: "Hey, no way, who made me a person here." I don't think I'll be able to get rid of it for the rest of my life. The two of them laughed.

Everyone sent Lu Jianyin and Wang Yunhai out of Yongyi Village. Wang Yunhai stood at the door and said to Yi Dan: "Miss Yi, I remember, since you feel that you are not capable of avenging your parents alone, I have a way that may be able to help you." ”

Yi Dan asked, "Brother Yunhai, what good can you do?"

Wang Yunhai said: "I think you can completely rely on the power of others, I mean that in addition to the power of the rivers and lakes, you can also use the power of the imperial court." ”

"The power of the imperial court, what do you mean by that?" Yi Dan asked.

Wang Yunhai said: "The violent beam is mediocre, and everyone knows it. But now the king of Jin in the north. But it is a corporal of Lixian, and the people want it. He got the last order of his father, the old Jin King, and vowed to destroy the Yan Kingdom, punish the Khitan, and go south to unify the Central Plains. Last year, the king of Jin had conquered Weizhou and drove his army to Weizhou. It is believed that we will soon reach the north bank of the Yellow River. If you take refuge in King Jin, you may soon be able to fulfill your wish. ”

Yi Dan thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I don't want to have anything to do with the powerful. It's better to do it by your own efforts, and you can do it wherever you can. ”

"Well, it's up to you. If you need my help in the future. Please send someone to Yunzhou Sword Casting Villa to find me. Wang Yunhai said.

"Well, thank you Brother Yunhai! If you have anything, you can also come to Songshan Lingxi Valley to find me, if I go back to the Central Plains, I will live there." Yi Dan said.

"Okay, definitely. I'm going to say goodbye to you, so please take care. Walking in the rivers and lakes is dangerous everywhere, please be more careful. Wang Yunhai admonished.

Yi Dan smiled with satisfaction and said, "Okay Brother Yunhai, thank you for your concern." Then we'll have a meeting later. ”

"Well, okay, everybody, take your leave. Wang Yunhai bowed and said goodbye, turned around and caught up with his master. The backs of the two disappeared into the vast sea of people.

After seeing the two leave. Ouyang Yucheng looked at Yi Dan affectionately. At this time, Lu Yonghuai said to Ouyang Yucheng: "Don't go anywhere in the future, just be your helper in the gang and make up for all the mistakes you have made." This can be regarded as a comfort to Brother Qin's spirit in the sky. ”

Ouyang Yucheng replied helplessly: "It's Uncle Lu." Master and nephew obey!"

Ouyang Yucheng returned to his room, still thinking about these questions in distress. I really wanted to wander the world with Yi Dan, but reality didn't allow him to do so. So he sat stupidly on the bed. I've been thinking about...

"Knock knock" the door knocked. Ouyang Yucheng hurriedly ran to the door, opened the door and saw that it was Qin Zijin standing at the door with a bowl of freshly cooked white fungus and red date soup.

"Zijin, why are you?" Ouyang Yucheng said disappointedly.

Qin Zijin said: "It's me, Brother Yu Cheng, haven't you slept yet?"

Ouyang Yucheng looked at the emptiness behind Qin Zijin, so he hung his head and said, "Well, I can't sleep." Didn't I say that I shouldn't make soup in the future? You've worked hard, so don't do this kind of thing again in the future. ”

Qin Zijin walked into the room, put the soup on the table, and said with a little sadness: "Yu Chengyi, don't you leave Guangzhou again, okay?"

Ouyang Yu admitted: "How do you know that I want to leave Guangzhou?"

Qin Zijin said: "I accidentally heard the conversation between you and Miss Yi in the afternoon. Brother Yu Cheng, I don't want you to leave, I want to be with you all the time. ”

"Zijin, in fact, in my heart, we are brother and sister, why don't you understand?" Ouyang Yucheng said.

"No, we're not brother and sister, I'm just your father's adopted daughter. Why don't you just want to accept me? Didn't you entrust me to you before my father-in-law passed away?"

"Zijin, I know your heart for me. But I'm sorry I can't accept your feelings, because in my heart, someone has already occupied that position. No one can squeeze in anymore. Ouyang Yucheng looked at Qin Zijin's eyes and said seriously.

Qin Zijin avoided Ouyang Yucheng's eyes and asked, "It's that Miss Yi, right?"

"That's right, it's her. I only like her alone, and besides, you know my body, I don't have much time left. So it's impossible for me to be with her, and I hope you can understand the situation. I don't want to drag you down, I don't want to drag any of you down. Ouyang Yucheng said sadly.

Qin Zijin said: "Brother Yu Cheng, why don't you understand my mind? Whether you are alive or dead, healthy or sick, my heart for you has never changed. If you live, I will love you for one day, and if you die, I will not live alone. ”

Ouyang Yucheng heard Qin Zijin's words, and didn't know how to answer, so he said, "Zijin, why are you doing this?"

"Love is like this, if I don't love you because you have been poisoned for a short time, it's not love. I want you to know, no matter how the world changes. My heart for you will never change. Qin Zijin firmly expressed his inner feelings to Ouyang Yucheng.

"Zijin, why are you so stupid? I don't have anything good, it's not worth you to do for me. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"Whether it's worth it or not, only I know. I don't ask you for anything, I just want to be by your side forever. Brother Yu Cheng, promise me, don't leave me, okay?" Qin Zijin said.

"Zijin, thank you for being so kind to me! But I'm afraid I won't be able to repay you in this life. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"I don't want your return, I just want you not to leave Guangzhou. Just let me stay with you all the time. Qin Zijin said.

Ouyang Yucheng sighed helplessly and said, "I know, it's not early, you go back and rest early." ”

"Well, then you should drink the soup and rest early, and I'll clean up the jar tomorrow morning. With that, Qin Zijin left Ouyang Yucheng's room with a smile.

The next day in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Elk Tairong Xuan took advantage of his free time. I'm sorting out my clothes. Suddenly, a soldier came to report: "Elk Tai Gongzi, it's not good." Just now, a brother from the tribe brought news from Xizhou and said..."

Elk Tai Rongxuan put down the clothes in his hand and asked, "What did he say?"

The soldier said, "He said your father." He was seriously wounded during a battle with Zhongyunbu. I want you to hurry back and succeed us as the leader of the Uighur Iron Tribe. ”

Elk Tairong's eyes widened, and he asked anxiously, "What? Is there such a thing? May I ask my father how he is now?"

"I don't know, he just said that your father was seriously injured. Let you be mentally prepared, and the rest will not be clear. Mi Tai Gongzi, let's hurry up and tell the emperor and the prime minister of the Southern Han Dynasty, and hurry up and ask for my life to go back to Xizhou, right? We don't have a foothold in the Western Regions. ”

Elk Tai Rongxuan stood up and said, "Okay, you go and inform all the brothers first, and hurry up and pack your things." I'm going to ask the emperor and the prime minister for my resignation. ”

After that, the two went their separate ways. After explaining the situation to the emperor and prime minister of the Southern Han Dynasty, all the Uighur soldiers were allowed to return to the Western Regions.

After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Elk Tairong Xuan was busy packing his luggage in the house. At this time, Chen Meier secretly ran over, she hugged Eltai from behind, and said, "Eltai, will you take me around?"

Elk Tairongxuan turned around, gently pushed Mei'er away, and asked, "Mei'er, didn't you go to the treasury?"

Mei'er said, "I'll go tomorrow, but I don't want to go there." I'll go to the Western Regions with you, I'll be with you all the time, I'll beg you to take me away, okay?"

Elk Tairong preached: "No, I can't take you away. ”

"Why? Didn't you like me very much before?" asked Chen Mei'er.

Eltai said: "Yes, I used to like you very much, but that was all in the past. Some things are just over. Some feelings are lost and can never be recovered. Still, I really want to thank you!"

Mei'er asked puzzledly, "Thank me, thank me for what?"

Eltai thought for a moment and said, "Thank you for making me grow up and understand what I really need. Mei'er, I'm sorry! We're not from the same world. I hope you can grow up to be like me in the future. Maybe at that time, you can still find your own sincere feelings. ”

Chen Meier listened to Mi Tai's words, pouted, and complained in disappointment. But her behavior, in the eyes of Eltai Rongxuan at this moment, is no longer the power of love that touches his heart. I just think why all this seems so ridiculous and childish.

Elk Tairong announced the group, took his suits, rode on a high-headed horse, and went all the way north. When passing by the gate of Yongyizhuang, he dismounted and knocked on the door.

At this time, Yi Dan was also packing up his things in the house, preparing to go south to Qiongya Island.

A disciple of the Knife Sharpening Gang came to report: "Miss Yi, someone is looking for you." ”

Yi Dan turned his head and saw that it was Eltai Rongxuan.

"Brother Eltai, why did you come here? What a coincidence, I was about to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to say goodbye to you. Yi Dan said happily.

Elk Tairong preached: "Sister Yi, I'm also here to say goodbye to you. ”

Yi Dan saw that Mi Tairongxuan was carrying a burden, so he asked, "Yes, you are also carrying a burden, where are you going?"

Elk Tairong preached: "Our tribe has been attacked, and my father has been seriously injured, so I will return to the Western Regions immediately. ”

"Really, Brother Eltai, are you leaving Guangzhou?" Yi Dan asked in surprise.

Elk Tairong preached: "Yes, Sister Yi, I didn't expect it to be so fast. We're about to separate, and I'm really reluctant to let you go. But my tribe is in trouble. I have to go back. ”

Yi Dan said: "Hey, I didn't expect us to be separated so soon, and I really can't bear you." ”

"Yes, although we have known each other for a short time, thank you Sister Yi for teaching me a lot, no matter where you are in the world, I will always be grateful to you" Mi Tai Rongxuan said.

"Brother Mitai, you are a simple and kind person, I hope you can be safe and happy in the future. Find the perfect girl in your heart. ”

"Well, thank you Sister Yi for your blessings, I hope you can be happy forever! If you have the opportunity to come to the Western Regions in the future, remember to come to Gaochang City to find me." Mi Tai Rongxuan said.

"The Western Regions are too far away, I don't know if there is such an opportunity in this life. Yi Dan said suspiciously.

"My father once told me that as long as you have a big heart, no matter how big the world is, no matter where you are, you can live in it. Mi Tai Rongxuan said.

"Hmm. Well said! Calm mind is natural and open-minded. If there is really that opportunity in the future, we will definitely go to the Western Regions to find you. This is a long way to go to the mountain, and I hope you can take care of yourself. Yi Dan said.

"Okay, Sister Yi, then I'll leave. I hope to see you again in the future!" Mi Tairong said goodbye.

"Well, have a nice trip, take care!"

Elk Tairong said goodbye to Yi Dan, with reverence for Zhao Guangyi, the prime minister of the Southern Han Dynasty. With his sincerity to Yi Dan, as well as the regret and freedom of that youthful unrequited love, he reluctantly left Guangzhou City.

After Elk Tai Rong Xuan left. Yi Dan is also going to say goodbye to everyone. She made an agreement with Xu Gui, the pharmacist of the Knife Sharpening Gang, and went south to Qiongya Island together. First, I came to investigate Xu Gui's father's case, and secondly, I also wanted to take this opportunity to visit the martial arts seniors on Qiongya Island.

Yi Dan and his junior brother You Ming Youming, as well as Xu Gui, came to Ouyang Yucheng's room to bid him farewell.

"Brother Ouyang, I'm here to say goodbye to you. We are going south to Qiongya Island with Mr. Xu, please take care of your health!" Yi Dan took the initiative to say goodbye.

"Dan'er, I know I can't make unreasonable requests to you anymore, so don't worry about going to Qiongya Island. If you plan something big in the future, please remember to let me know. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"Well, okay Brother Ouyang. I will remember your words, please take care of your health, I believe we will meet again in the future. Yi Dan said.

"Okay, when you are outside, you must also take good care of your body. Oh yes, there are some hidden martial arts masters on Qiongya Island. If you have the opportunity, you can get to know them, which may help you in the future. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"Okay, thank you Brother Ouyang for reminding me, I originally thought so. Yi Dan said.

"Well, it's just that I haven't contacted them, and whether you can meet them or not depends on your own luck. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"Well, I know, I still want to thank you, Brother Ouyang. Yi Dan said.

"I couldn't help you with anything, what else do you want to say thank you?" After that, Ouyang Yucheng turned his head to Xu Gui and said, "Mr. Xu, I bother you to help me take care of Dan'er, thank you!"

Xu Guidao: "Don't worry, I will take care of this Yi girl." If it is found out that my father's death has nothing to do with you, I will apologize to you and let you be punished. ”

Ouyang Yucheng: "Well, thank you, Mr. Xu! As long as you can find out the true cause of Elder Xu's death, it can be regarded as a great contribution to the Knife Sharpening Gang." ”

"But if it is clear that it was your Excellency, I will not let you go. Xu Gui changed his words and said firmly.

"Okay, please rest assured Mr. Xu to go south, I'm waiting for your news in Guangzhou. ”

Yi Dan suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh yes, Brother Ouyang. We missed Brother Yuwen in Guangzhou this time, please help me say sorry to him next time I see him. ”

"Okay, if you say it, I will definitely transfer it, you can go with confidence. Take care all the way. Ouyang Yucheng said.

"Well, Brother Ouyang, don't send it, we know how to go. Yi Dan said.

Ouyang Yucheng still sent Yi Dan and his junior brother Youming and Xu Gui to Xinzhou, and then reluctantly separated. Looking at Yi Dan, Youming and Xu Gui, they ran in the direction of Leizhou, and gradually disappeared under the coconut trees on the horizon. (To be continued.) )
