Ah Xiu actually said such a thing as watching the scene, and I smiled and asked, "Who did you learn from? How could you say such a thing?"

Ah Xiu: "The first time I saw cultivators fighting each other was when the Wind Gentleman was enshrined in Zhaoting Mountain. On that day, the Fayuan monk of Jiulin Zen Monastery came to make trouble, my cultivation was still shallow, and I couldn't stop it if I wanted to stop it, but it was Sister Luxue who helped. Fa Yuan said that I am a Dharma protector and a gentleman, and Fa Yuan Monk Fa Yuan is here to smash the field. ”

"The incident that day was a misunderstanding, and Master Fayuan was also a good intention, you don't have to blame him. As for the Dharma Protector, Ziying will make it clear to you. Let's stop standing and talking here, find a place to sit. ”

Ah Xiu: "Then let's go to my brother's room." ”

"My room, where do I have a room in the Plum Blossom Sacred Realm?"

Ah Xiu: "Come with me and you'll know, what I arranged with Sister Ziying has already been prepared for you." ”

Walking through the patio to the largest quiet room in the West Courtyard, it had been completely replaced, and its layout was exactly the same as the room they had prepared for me in Wucheng. There are not many things inside, but each one is delicate and elegant, and the desk, armchair, trellisten, and wardrobe are all made of white pear wood. Only a very thin transparent varnish is applied to the floor, revealing a natural fresh texture. The futon on the bed is new, and it exudes a faint dry scent of grass and trees. In the corner next to the pillow against the wall stood a white soft linen futon for me to meditate.

"You moved your home in Wucheng here?"

Ah Xiu: "It's not like moving. It's just laid out again as it was. Brother Ishino is not satisfied?"

"Satisfied, couldn't be more satisfied, you guys are so good to me. ”

Ah Xiu: "Of course, you have to be good to Brother Ishino, and my brother is good to me." Sister Ziying said that it is not easy to have a person in this world who should be good to him, can be good to him, and deserves to be good to him. ”

"But from beginning to end. I haven't done anything for you. ”

Ah Xiu: "Don't you remember that my brother saved my life?"

"How did I not know there was such a thing?"

Ah Xiu: "When I was very young, I just learned to walk through the enchantment, so I went everywhere to find the young master. As a result, I ran all the way to the Qingyi River, and at that time the water was unfamiliar and was swept away by the torrent. You happened to be playing by the river, and when you saw me tumbling past the shore, you reached out and grabbed me. ”

"Did you catch it?"

Ah Xiu: "When you were a child, your eyes were very sharp, of course you caught it, but you were also swept into the torrent and almost drowned." ”

"Then how did we both get saved? ”

Ah Xiu: "Grandpa Jin's approach." Scooped both of us up. ”

"That's not me who saved you, it's the honest real person who saved the two of us. How old was I then?"

Ah Xiu: "Only four years old. ”

"How can I remember...... Let me think about it, my parents did say that once I was playing by the river and was swept into the river by a strange current, fortunately Grandpa Jin passed by and saved me. ”

Ah Xiu: "It must have been that time." Later, I learned that you can't walk around in the world. I stayed in the Jingwu Cave Heaven and practiced until you came to the Zhuangyuan Bridge, I secretly gave you the Qingying Mirror, and later found a way to lead you back to the Mei Forbidden Land. ”

"You've done so much for me. I really don't know how to thank you?"

Ah Xiu: "This is what I should do and am willing to do." These were instincts until I was sensible. I was originally the guardian beast of the Mei Clan. ”

"But when you came to me as Ah Xiu, I never treated you as a roar looking at the sky. Mei only left you and me. From now on, you will be my relative. ...... Speaking of which, it is all thanks to my master, Mr. Fengjun. You've heard all about the Wind Gentleman, right?"

Ah Xiu: "Liu Yiyi and Sister Ziying both told me. ...... Brother, I beg you for one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

Ah Xiu: "Don't forget me like a gentleman of the wind." ”

I sighed: "Of course I won't forget Ah Xiu, I just hope that you can all be safe, I can't forget it, and I dare not forget it." ...... The Wind Gentleman locked you up twice in the Divine Wood Forest, once when Lu Xue trapped you, and once when Liu Yiyi trapped you, aren't you angry with him?"

Ah Xiu: "Both times I came out of shape. Because of the blessing of misfortune, he gave me great blessings, and I want to be angry with him, that is, I am too ignorant. Actually, this time, Liu Yiyi couldn't trap me, I could have sneaked out, but I just didn't come out and waited until today. My brother said I'm sensible?"

"Of course you're sensible, I remember you've always been very sensible. ”

Ah Xiudi's face suddenly turned red, lowered his head, and said weakly: "I also once did a very bad thing, so the wind gentleman took the black ruyi and arrested me in the Divine Wood Forest." ”

The girl's shy look made my heart beat when I saw it, and I knew what she was talking about. Now I don't have to pretend that I don't know, just find out everything. Pulled her to her side, sat down, put his hand around her shoulder, and asked, "It was you who turned into Liu Fei'er in the delusional realm, and it was you who fed me a dragon pill the night I was drunk?...... That's you?"

Ah Xiu lowered his head, and his voice was like a mosquito humming: "It's me, I'm wrong." My brother already knew, didn't he?"

"Actually, I didn't blame you, I just wanted to say it today, and that was my first ......"

Ah Xiu: "Brother, you won't dislike it, right?"

"How can you not like it? If you have this affection, I can't bear you. It's just that the feelings in the world are very complicated, and I can't tell if it's not as simple as you think. Heaven and earth can last forever because there is no need to force it. There are some things I can't say, you go and ask Ziying, she may be able to tell you. ”

Ah Xiu: "Actually, I understand, don't think I don't understand anything. As long as my brother doesn't forget, I won't treat me badly!"

"How could I forget you, and how dare I treat you badly? ”

Ah Xiu quietly stretched out a hand. The barely audible voice on my shoulder said, "I won't bite you in the future!"

I took her hand down and held it in my palm and said softly, "Ah Xiu, please do me a favor." ”

Ah Xiu: "If my brother has something, just say it." ”

"I heard that you have the innate supernatural ability to pass through the enchantment, do you still have it?"

Ah Xiu: "What the Wind Gentleman borrowed from me is still the incarnation of Wangtian's roar, and it is stronger than the original. Of course, there is such a supernatural power - whose house is my brother going to steal?"

"I don't steal anything, and you don't want to break into the trouble of Qi Yunguan stealing Dan again. Now we have three Dongtian Dojos, namely the Plum Blossom Holy Realm here, the Jingwu Cave in Wucheng, and the Divine Tree Forest in Tianzhaoting Mountain. You're the only one who can walk freely, so everyone needs to take care of everything. I think your supernatural powers are very similar to the Wind Gentleman?"

Ah Xiu: "It's a bit similar but different. The Wind Gentleman can also walk through the barrier, but he can't see through the portal, so he needs to find it. And I will still be trapped by the cultivation circle, otherwise I won't be caught last time. It seems that there is no magic circle that can trap the Wind Gentleman. ...... Brother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Sister Ziying and Liu Yiyi. ”

"There is one more important thing in front of me, Ziying wants to refine the Nine Turns Purple Gold Pill, but she has no time to go all over the world to collect medicine. And you have natural supernatural powers, not afraid of dangers, and come and go quickly. Can you help Sister Ziying go everywhere to collect elixir? Grandpa Jin once took you up the mountain to collect medicine, and the real person who taught him was of course a master here. ”

Ah Xiu: "Knowing that, I will definitely help Sister Ziying refine the Nine Turns Purple Gold Pill as soon as possible." In fact, my sister told me that the Nine Turns Purple Gold Pill is also of great use to me, and she will definitely give me one after refining it. Do you know. My sister has been refining magic weapons recently, and she is imitating the legendary Shennong Hundred Grass Whip, and if it is refined, it will be much more convenient to collect the world's elixir. ”

"I almost forgot if you didn't say it. What a pleasure to see you. I also left one for you, you can take it to your liking, and finally refine it, so you don't have a magic weapon now. ”

Ah Xiu: "Thank you, brother...... It's getting late, do you want my brother to rest? Do you want me to accompany you?"

"Of course Ah Xiu is happy to accompany me, but my brother still has to meditate and practice, can I talk about it later?

Ah Xiu: "Does my brother want me to go?"

"Brother, I didn't let you go, but I was practicing for the past few days, and I suddenly felt a feeling in my heart. It was known that there was a sign of a breakthrough in the Dan Dao realm at this time. Would you like to talk to Sister Ziying tonight? ”

Ah Xiu: "Divine powers are enough to have a self-generated sense in the Dao realm? Is my brother's cultivation already so high? I heard that this situation is often dangerous, you must be careful! Ah Xiu will not disturb his brother's cultivation...... Can my brother let me hug you again? I want to hug you like you hugged me just now. ”

"How do you hug you? You're not as tall as I am. ”

"Brother, sit still. Ah Xiu stood up and stood across from me, reaching out and pulling me into her arms. My face was pressed against her soft chest, and I could clearly hear her heartbeat through the girl's elastic ** through my shirt. Ah Xiu touched my head and said, "My brother hugged me like this, but my brother won't cry like Ah Xiu." ”

My mouth and nose were so overwhelmed with tenderness that I couldn't speak. I remember that in the days after Ah Xiu was killed, every time I meditated, I felt that I had already burst into tears before I knew it...... I took a deep breath of the girl's body fragrance, closed my eyes, and was silent, thinking about nothing for the time being. Suddenly, a scene appeared in my mind, as if it flashed in front of my eyes

I felt like I was back in my childhood, playing barefoot in the knee-high shallow water by the Qingyi River. A strange torrent suddenly surged across the water in front of him, and a red light struggled in the torrent. I subconsciously reached out and grabbed the brown-red shadow out of the water, but the torrent swept me into the waves. The boundless turbulence swept in and I struggled, unable to breathe, and went with the waves, constantly being swallowed up.

It's not just a memory, it's not just a hallucination, and the feeling suddenly becomes real and clear, and it's born right here and now! Secretly said that it was not good to force himself to retract his mind, open his eyes, and his body shook softly for a few moments, before returning to normal! Ah Xiu obviously saw that I was wrong, and leaned down and asked eagerly: "What's wrong with my brother? Suddenly his face became so ugly?"

"I don't have anything, you go and call Ziying! ”

Ah Xiu hurriedly found Ziying, Ziying saw that my face was heavy and worried, and asked, "Why did you call me here if you didn't talk to Ah Xiu for a while?"

"Ziying, you don't have to worry! I'll be honest with you, another Heavenly Tribulation in my Dan Dao cultivation has arrived, and I will immediately retreat. You take the light feather to the Zhiwei Building in the water to pass on my order, and say that I can't go back for a while, and if there is something, let Zeren and Yu Cangwu discuss it. Remind Rong Cheng not to reveal where my retreat is, and not to allow outsiders to disturb my practice. ”

Ziying: "Why is this time now? Are you sure? Do you want to summon the wind gentleman back?"

"No, he has also experienced calamities in the world, and calling him back is also detrimental to his cultivation, and he can't practice as a last resort. When you go back and forth, Ah Xiu protects the Dharma for me. It seems that I have not delayed, and it is time to get to the end of the year, and I always have a premonition recently. ”

Ah Xiu: "I was originally a Dharma protector, I didn't expect to be a Dharma protector for my brother so soon! What should I do?"

"I don't need you to do anything, you stay here and try not to let outsiders interfere with me. ...... This Heavenly Punishment Ink Jade will be handed over to you, if my Yuan Shen is scattered and I can't take a self-photo, I will crush it immediately, and the Wind Gentleman will rush to help me. ”

Ah Xiu: "Is it so dangerous?"

"Actually, probably not, I'm just careful to prepare. You can rest assured, my brother will be fine. ”

......

Now I am like standing on the edge of a river with rough waves and vicious waves, and I can't see the scenery on the other side at a glance. That's where my practice is going to go, and this sea of suffering is still going to be over? I can choose to stop, but I never know what is on the other side, and I want to break through this realm, or I can board a boat or build a bridge, in short, I have to pass through the test of this sea of suffering.

If you talk about the nature of the heart, I am not afraid of the calamities in the world, and I have experienced countless calamities of people and people over the years. However, I am not very sure in the face of the sea of suffering, and the reason is not because my mind is not stoic and clear enough, but because my practice was too smooth in the past. After escaping the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation in a row, the Bitter Sea Tribulation before the Yang God Realm finally had to be experienced in cultivation. In the past, I practiced according to the fate, and unconsciously cultivated to improve, and today is my first official retreat.
