Xu Chen sighed, sat up, put on his clothes, sat in the dark for a while, then walked over and opened the door, and walked out, at first a little irritable, and then a smile appeared on his face.

A person like Lu Shi is the happiest person in the world, he looks at everything very lightly, and he is also relieved of the people he has just met, he doesn't look like a practitioner at all, and he wants to be the Buddha that Master Wu Zen has talked about.

In the darkness of the night, the courtyard where he was was seemed to be deeply invisible.

The faint light from nowhere brought a faint light, allowing him to see the faint shadow of the birch tree standing in the rain in the depths of the courtyard.

He looked up, looked at the sky, and breathed deeply.

Cool, slightly cold, damp air poured into his chest, and although he stood in the hallway, the wind outside hit him in the face.

He turned back and closed the door and strolled down the circular hallway.

The raindrops falling from the sky, hitting the bluestone slabs in the courtyard, splashing one after another, it is difficult to say whether it is beautiful or irritating.

Between the roof tiles above the cloister, the rainwater gathers into a stream, thin wisps, and flows down gently, like a small waterfall. Along the way, it seems to be walking in a deep and quiet cave in the depths and quiet.

Xu Chen's clothes were wet in a few places, but he didn't care at all, and only looked forward in amazement.

In the wind and rain, some people hold umbrellas with their bare hands, standing silently under the trees in the rain, standing quietly.

The night is deep, the wind and rain are blowing between the heaven and the earth, and the fallen leaves that do not know where they come from are gently drifting in the wind and rain, passing by with the wind.

Under the blue-black tarpaulin umbrella, her clothes swayed gently, and there were a few strands of black hair, sticking to her snow-white cheeks.

Xu Chen stood in place, but in that moment, there was confusion in his heart. In the middle of the night in this foreign land, in a strange place, there is a familiar wind and rain......

"Why haven't you gone to sleep yet?" Xu Chen said slowly.

Tang Yan didn't answer, just looked at him, her eyes were like water, reflecting his shadow.

The rain gradually soaked his clothes, and from between his hair, slowly condensed into small, crystalline droplets, flowing over his black hair, dripping gently, and sliding down his face.

"What about you?" she asked rhetorically, "why haven't you slept yet?"

Xu Chen was silent for a moment and said, "Brother Lu Shi, he, he snores when he sleeps, the sound is too loud, I can't sleep." ”

Tang Yan was stunned for a moment, then "poof", chuckled, her eyes flowed, and the faint light that vaguely surrounded her seemed to suddenly light up.

In Xu Chen's eyes, she was like an iris that bloomed gently in the rain in the middle of the night, just like when he left the Xu family ten years ago, he also stood with an umbrella.

It's just that yesterday and today are not, and suddenly formatted.

She smiled, stretched out her hand, and grabbed Xu Chen's hand, and Xu Chen couldn't help but take a step forward. In the wind and rain, the small black umbrella came sideways and blocked the top of his head.

Under the umbrella, it was the sound of her gentle breathing.

Xu Chen's heartbeat suddenly increased, so he looked away and didn't look at her, but the faint fragrance that seemed to emanate from her body surrounded him.

"Tomorrow, are you going to Wuxian Town?" Tang Yan said quietly.

Xu Chen's heart moved, and he said, "Hmm!"

As he spoke, he glanced up at her, "What about you?"

Tang Yan smiled faintly and said, "I'll go too, otherwise, why do I keep following here?"

Xu Chen's face changed, and he frowned and said, "There, there's danger." ”

Tang Yan stopped talking, only stared at him silently. Xu Chen had a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, but he thought that it was always bad for him to stand in the rain with her late at night, so he said, "Then I'll go back first." ”

Tang Yan didn't answer, and Xu Chen left her side and walked back.

But just as he was halfway through, behind him, in the rain, suddenly heard her voice.

"Cousin!"

Xu Chen was stunned, this was the first time Tang Yan called him that.

He turned around slowly, and the wind and rain were between them, as if it was getting bigger, so Tang Yan's face was a little blurred, but her voice came so clearly.

"When I was standing here alone just now, I thought to myself, if my father hadn't married your aunt back then, and if you hadn't been taken to the Bai family back then, maybe ......"

Xu Chen's body was shocked, and then he forced a laugh and said, "Don't joke around." With that, he walked briskly away.

Xu Chen walked up to the corridor and left the wind and rain, as if he was relieved. I don't know why, he will always have some pressure in the face of Tang Yan, maybe this is the heaviness of time.

He sighed to himself, but he couldn't help but glance back, and when he saw that the woman was still standing in the wind and rain, he shook his head and walked back to his room.

Not long after he left, Tang Yan also walked up and stood on the top of the cloister with a blue and black oil umbrella, looking at the direction he was walking, silent and silent.

At this moment, in the darkness behind her, the darkness suddenly moved, but a figure dressed in black walked out.

Tang Yan turned her head and said lightly: "Dad." ”

The man in the iron mask glanced in the direction where Xu Chen went, and said in a calm and emotionless voice: "Let's go, now is the best situation!"

Tang Yan nodded slowly, but there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

In the early morning of the next day, Xu Chen, who finally fell asleep, was woken up by Lu Shi loudly: "Brother Xu, get up quickly." ”

Xu Chen opened his eyes with great difficulty, only to see that Lu Shi was in good spirits, full of energy, obviously he slept very well last night!

He smiled bitterly, said nothing, got up, and walked to the basin next to him to wash his face. Lu Shi sat on his bed and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, it's not me talking about you, you are so young, and you are a cultivator, and your cultivation is not shallow, you should wake up one night and be refreshed." How do you look like you haven't slept all night!"

Xu Chen read a sentence in his heart: "It's not like, it's just that I haven't slept all night." But he could only smile and nod wryly.

After the two of them finished washing, Lu Shi pulled Xu Chen and prepared to call Tang Yan to leave together. Xu Chen frowned secretly, but he really didn't want to say it in his heart, but it was not good to say it to Lu Shiming.

Unexpectedly, the two of them knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered, and then asked the shopkeeper, but Tang Yan had already left last night.

Lu Shi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and felt strange, "This little girl, isn't it just holding you back for a while?"

Xu Chen stood aside, thinking in his heart, listening to what the shopkeeper Wang said, she left not long after she broke up with Tang Yan.

In fact, Xu Chen had been worried about Tang Yan if he wanted to go to Wuxian Town with him, what would be good, but this time she suddenly said goodbye, and he was confused in his heart.

Lu Shi, who was standing next to him, happened to come over to discuss with Xu Chen, but at this moment, the shopkeeper Wang looked at him a few more times, and suddenly said: "Dare to ask this Excellency, is the name called Lu Shi?"

Lu Shi was stunned and said, "Exactly, how do you know?"

With a look of joy on his face, the shopkeeper Wang took out a letter from under the counter and said, "This is a guest who sent it to me this morning, saying that it was for a burly young man named Lu Shi, and it must be you, the guest officer." ”

Lu Shi took the letter and looked at it, and his name was indeed written on the envelope, so he opened it to see, and Xu Chen also came back to his senses at this time. Lu Shi looked at it, his brows furrowed, and he lost his voice: "Master!"

Xu Chen was taken aback and said, "Master?"

At this time, Xu Chen's heart was tumbling, he had already guessed that Lu Shi's master was probably the old man who entered the Heavenly Volcano with him, so he never told the other party about the old man's death, and that day outside Xiaomiao Town, he still tried his best to let Lu Shi go with him, in order not to let him know the news that the master had died.

When is now.

"Are you sure, are you sure this is your master's note?"

Lu Shi shook his head and said, "Well, this letter must have been written by my master, asking me to go to see him outside the city immediately." Brother Xu, I think we're going to be separated for the time being. ”

Xu Chen nodded and said, "It's okay, then you can go, I'm also in a hurry to go to Wuxian Town to see you...... See my friend too. ”

Lu Shi smiled: "When I see Master, I will ask him to go to Wuxian Town with me, so that I can help you Cheng Cheng scene, and we will see you later." ”

Xu Chen has been with him for a lot of time, and he is also a little close in his heart, and said with a smile: "Okay!"

Lu Shi nodded, turned around and left, without pause, and was very excited to think about it.

Xu Chen sent him to the door of the inn, watched his tall body disappear into the crowd, stood in place for a while, then turned his head and walked east alone.

After they all walked away, in the lobby, Guan Xuzi and his granddaughter Xiaoling slowly walked out.

Xiao Ling whispered: "It's so dangerous, I almost ran into an enemy." As he spoke, he glanced at Guan Xuzi and said, "It's not all grandpa, go all the way to cheat all the way, and when you deceive everyone in the world, see where you can stay?" ”

Guan Xuzi glanced at Xiao Ling and ignored her. At this time, when the shopkeeper saw the old fairy walking out, he naturally greeted him a long time ago, served tea and food diligently, and warmly entertained him. Guan Xuzi was not polite, and sat down with Xiao Lingda, chatting with the shopkeeper Wang without a word.

The shopkeeper said: "Old immortal, do you know? Last night we heard that something big happened outside Changhe City?"

Guan Xuzi was stunned and said, "What's the matter?"

The shopkeeper said, "I don't know much, but I heard that someone was fighting outside the city last night. ”

"No, it's ...... away from Wuxian Town."

Guan Xuzi said halfway, and suddenly swallowed the second half of the sentence back, as if he deliberately didn't want the other party to know something.

Shopkeeper Wang shrugged his shoulders and said, "The news has been uploaded earlier, but most of it will not be fake!"

"Really?"

Guan Xuzi was suddenly stunned, as if he had thought of something.
