Chapter 22
Ding Ning looked at this stubborn young man, and remembered a lot of old people, he was silent for a moment, and said: "People like you have food everywhere, why come to me." ”
"No one will refuse a dead man to be a guest, but you keep refusing. ”
Ye Huanan looked down at the ground under Ding Ning's feet and said, "It's the same when you are in the Minshan Sword Meeting, you respect my life, so I also respect your life." Whoever wants to kill you must step over my corpse. ”
Ding Ning opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Ye Jiannan had already continued: "You don't need to reject me anymore, because no matter how you refuse, I won't leave, because it's my own choice." ”
"And I admire you. ”
After a pause, Ye Jiannan raised his head, looked at Ding Ning and said, "I admire you and Zhang Yi, compared to you, my life seems to be blank and meaningless, I want to be the same person as you." ”
Ding Ning shook his head and said, "Actually, it's meaningless. ”
Ye Huanan said: "But at least be happy." ”
Ding Ning looked at his sallow face and bright eyes compared to before, and couldn't say anything more.
He knew that he couldn't change Ye Jiannan's decision, just like he couldn't change the decision of the previous master of the last flower sword.
Because the rarest thing in life is happiness.
Looking at Ding Ning, who was no longer speechless, Ye Jiannan bowed slightly, picked up the broom again and began to clean.
......
"Actually, I envy you. ”
In Ye Ce Leng's house, Ye Ce Leng looked at the medicine jar in front of him, and said lightly: "At least you act quickly." ”
Bai Shanshui, who was sitting on a soft couch not far from her, smiled slightly, also looked at the lukewarm medicine jar, and didn't respond to this sentence first, but said, "I didn't expect that the head of the night division is still a pharmacist." ”
Ye Ce said coldly and self-deprecatingly: "A long-term illness becomes a doctor." ”
Bai Shanshui glanced at her, and a trace of complicated feelings flashed in his eyes, "Actually, I should envy you... Cultivators all over the world only saw me as a great rebel and arrogant laughing at the mountains and forests, happy to take revenge, but they didn't expect that you just have a lot of concerns, so you can't be the same as me, and I just have just cultivated the sword, and all the things I care about are gone. The mountains and rivers are broken, the sect is destroyed, not to mention those relatives and friends, even if they have only had some intersections, the deceased who can be regarded as a fate has died cleanly, every time the sun sets, it is really inseparable, and the mood is inevitably desolate. ”
The medicinal soup is already boiling slightly, but it still takes a lot of light to wait for several bowls of water to boil into one bowl.
Ye Ce Leng listened to Bai Shanshui's words, thinking about the events of the past ten years, and suddenly felt that he only felt a big dream.
Those people in fresh clothes and angry horses, holding swords and smiling arrogantly, seem to be still in front of them, why have so many things happened, and so much time has passed?
Bai Shanshui didn't want to speak, but at this moment, she suddenly felt something, frowned slightly, and said, "Strange." ”
Then the breeze blew, and she got up from the couch and headed out the door.
Ye Ce glanced at the medicine jar coldly, then followed her, and said with some solemnity: "What?"
Bai Shanshui didn't answer her right away.
Her gaze fell on the side of the wall.
On the side of the wall is an open ditch.
Rainwater falling from the eaves eventually collects into such gutters, which then pass through the walls and eventually collect into larger canals on both sides of the road in Changling Street.
On weekdays, washing rice and laundry, washing cars and drinking horses are all used with the open water in these ditches.
Because of the heavy rain of the previous day, the water in these ditches was now full, almost flush with the ground and the road, and it looked dirty compared to usual.
"There is medicinal gas. ”
Bai Shanshui opened his mouth and said three words.
Ye Ce Leng did not misunderstand, because when Bai Ce Leng opened his mouth, as a soft breath precipitated from Bai Ce Leng's body, a faint mist began to evaporate on this section of the ditch that flowed through Ye Ce Leng's courtyard.
The water mist is like a silk scarf made of the lightest and softest silk threads, slowly fluttering towards the white mountain water.
Tiny droplets of crystal water were deposited and fell on the palms of the white landscape, like dew on blades of grass, and then disappeared without a trace.
Ye Ce Leng also began to smell the medicinal gas in those crystal water droplets.
Her brow furrowed deeply.
The smell of the medicinal qi was very messy, and it was a collection of many kinds of elixirs that even she couldn't get.
"These drugs can only come from the palace. ”
She turned her head and looked at Bai Shanshui and said.
Bai Shanshui nodded.
Many elixirs that are very rare to cultivators in the world actually fell into the sewage of the streets and alleys of Changling, this kind of thing is difficult to understand, and I am afraid that it is only possible in Changling. It's just like Changling has a woman like Ye Ce Leng, this elixir that is inexplicably dissolved in the dirty water is also a God-given opportunity for her.
The mist is always light and fluttering, and it becomes transparent and invisible in the sun, but the crystal water droplets in the palm of Bai Shanshui are constantly appearing.
Ye Ce looked at such a picture coldly and said, "Yunshui Palace's water control technique is really the best in the world. ”
A strange glow appeared on Bai Shanshui's face, she turned her head to look at Ye Ce Leng, and said, "Although Yunshui Palace's water control technique is the best in the world, its killing intent is not as good as that of the night leader's Tiansheng Shui. ”
Ye Ce looked into her eyes coldly and said, "Maybe we can learn from each other?"
Bai Shanshui laughed: "This is something that was originally saved in my imagination before, but I always feel that it is unattainable. ”
In the next breath, Bai Shanshui restrained his smile, bowed his head seriously, and said, "I can't ask for it, and maybe we can comprehend some other things together, such as the Lonely Mountain Sword Collection." “
......
After Ye Jiannan swept the streets around Moyuan, he helped the surrounding neighbors to do chores, repairing houses, carrying water and chopping wood... The people of Wutongluo were originally simple, and seeing that Ye Jiannan was so capable, and hearing that Ye Jiannan was homeless, and there was no need for Ding Ning's arrangement, these neighbors had already arranged a house for Ye Jiannan, and the three meals were even more worry-free.
When he picked up the stoneware bowl that was most accustomed to the neighborhood of Wutong Luoli and began to eat dinner, he saw a figure that looked very lonely and not proud, but looked a little unruly and unruly walking towards him.
He put down the bowl, looked at the figure that was getting closer and closer, looked at the obviously thick clothes that the other party was wearing in this kind of summer, tilted his head slightly, and said softly: "I know you, you are Li Xixing." ”
Walking slowly in the setting sun, the young man who walked in front of him was Li Xixing.
"I'm Li Xixing. ”
He walked to Ye Huanan's side and sat down on the steps beside Ye Huanan, who was not good at talking to people, and fell silent for a while.
Ye Jiannan looked at him with some curiosity, "You came to find Ding Ning?"
"I was going to sue him, I'm leaving. Li Xixing glanced at the depths of the ink garden on his side and said.
"You're here to say goodbye?" Ye Jiannan was shocked, "You are the top ten of the Minshan Sword Society, and you have entered the Minshan Sword Sect to practice, why do you still want to leave?"
Li Xixing didn't reply immediately.
Ye Huanan reacted a little, but he was still puzzled: "Now that you are a disciple of the Minshan Sword Sect, even if your family is not satisfied with what you have done in the Minshan Sword Society, it stands to reason that it is impossible to be angry with you again." With the way the Minshan Sword Sect does things, it will definitely protect you. ”
"I'm not afraid. ”
Li Xixing shook his head and said, "It's just that no matter how much I disobey my father's orders, my father is still my father... I'm not afraid of what others will do to me, but I have to think about what others will do to my father. ”
Ye Huanan was stunned, he began to understand what Li Xixing meant.
"You want to take responsibility for this, so where are you going?" After being stunned, he couldn't help but look at Li Xixing and asked.
"I'll go back to my gate. Since they don't like me to stay in Changling and like to exile me outside the pass, then I will go back to the pass. ”
Li Xixing stood up and said to Ye Jiannan: "I originally wanted to say goodbye to him in person, but when I came here, it didn't make sense to think about it, and it would be the same if you told him then." ”
"Wait..."
Looking at the back of Li Xixing, who walked towards the road he came from without saying anything, Ye Jiannan took a deep breath and said, "You regard him as a friend, and he naturally regards you as a friend." ”
Li Xixing nodded, didn't say anything more, and the figure gradually lengthened in the setting sun, and finally disappeared from Ye Huanan's sight.
A middle-aged man with an ordinary face and very ordinary clothes watched Li Xixing's departure at the door of the ink garden.
Even Ye Jiannan didn't notice when he arrived, and even didn't notice his existence until this time.
This middle-aged man, who looked so ordinary that he would even be forgotten in sight, saluted Shao Shiren, who was still sitting on the mat under the tree, and then walked through the gate and walked towards the inner courtyard of the ink garden.
Ding Ning walked out of the deepest courtyard and saluted the seemingly ordinary man from afar, "Uncle Geng Blade." ”R1058
