While serving Mo Chen with medicine, Xiaodong told him the things of these days.
"Master's retreat went smoothly, and he said that the hidden wounds on his body have healed. As soon as Master came out of the retreat and heard the news that the brother was going down the mountain, his face became very ugly."
It is no exaggeration to say that it was the first time Xiaodong saw Master's expression so ugly. And even if Master was angry before, he was always directed at others. Who is that senior brother? That is the big apprentice that Master relies on the most and loves the most, and Master has never made his face angry at him.
It can be seen that there must be a lot of trouble for the elder brother to go out this time, otherwise the master would not be like this.
"Senior brother Jiang was also implicated, and the master scolded him." Xiaodong was not offended, but his words were soft and he didn't understand the inside story, so the master was reluctant to scold him.
The medicinal soup has just been boiled and removed from the fire, and it is still very hot. After drinking this bowl of medicine, Mo Chen almost broke out in a sweat. When the sweat came out, there seemed to be a lot of things dripping away with the sweat, and I felt a lot lighter all of a sudden.
Xiaodong helped him to lie down again, and asked courteously, "Brother, do you want to eat something? We are in the town now, and there are many food shops outside the wall. How about I bring a bowl of wontons? Or Lao Jia Meat buns from home?"
Mo Chen was in the mood to eat meat buns.
"Why did you come down the mountain?"
Xiaodong rubbed his head: "Hey, Brother Jiang also wants to go down the mountain, but he is the only one sitting on the mountain at the moment. If he wants to come down, who else will take care of it? I really can't help it. When Master came down the mountain, I wanted to follow him, but Master refused. I also knew that my skills were low, and I was afraid that I would be delayed if I couldn’t help. However, as soon as Master sent back the news that he had arrived at the foot of the mountain, I followed Jiang. Senior Brother said that he would come down to meet Master and Senior Brother, and do some small things like running errands and delivering news. Senior Brother Jiang couldn't hold back me, so he let me come."
As soon as Mo Chen heard the three words "can't hold back", he knew that Xiaodong must have caught Jiang Fan to death, otherwise, where did the word come from
Mo Chen got up slightly, and looked seriously into Xiaodong's eyes: "Does Master know about you?"
Xiaodong was startled, and when he recovered, he quickly shook his head: "No, Master doesn't know."
Once he knew that senior brother might be in danger, how could he bother to tell his master about it
Thinking of the torment at that time now, Xiaodong still feels tight in his heart.
This feeling of knowing that someone close to us is in danger, but there is nothing we can do, and we can only wait for it, is like a year, and every moment is so difficult.
"Then, how did you get to the Burial Sword Valley? You have never been there before."
The Burial Sword Valley is also too far away from Huiliu Mountain, thousands of miles away.
How did the junior brother find him across such a long distance
Even if something goes wrong in this, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Speaking of this, Xiaodong himself was in a daze.
He was worried about his master and senior brother, and once thought that it would be great if he could see the situation of his senior brother. It's just that it's out of his control. No matter how capable a person is, he can't control what he dreams at night. Xiaodong is like this, even though he is anxious, it is difficult to sleep at night. After going to bed, he tosses and turns, but there is no sleepiness. All kinds of chaotic thoughts and worries are tossing back and forth in his head. He finally falls asleep, but he wakes up after a short sleep. up. Usually he wouldn't wake up so early, but these days when the elder brother was away, he always woke up before dawn, and it was dark outside in the fourth watch, and he couldn't fall back asleep once he woke up.
He didn't dream of anything, let alone meeting his elder brother in his dream.
Three nights ago, after the master left the customs, he hurried to the Burial Sword Valley. That day he felt very stuffy in his chest, and when he was practicing sword during the day, he lost his strength, half of his body was sore and sore, and his heart was extremely disturbed, he always felt that something was going to happen, and he didn't have the mind to use it for dinner.
"When it was just dark, I was meditating in the room..."
Xiaodong was still a little dazed when he recalled the situation at that time.
He didn't close the window, and the mountain wind blew into the house through the window, bringing with it an uneasy restlessness.
Xiaodong wanted to get up and close the window, but the moment he got up, he heard a muffled thunder.
The sound was very strange, as if it sounded very close to him, but it seemed to be separated by a thick barrier, the sound was very vague and unreal.
When he raised his head again, he found himself standing in a dark rain curtain, and everything around him was very strange.
It was a place he had never been to or heard of. But then he saw the elder brother.
This time Xiaodong understood.
This is the Burial Sword Valley.
"I saw that Jin Mian and the senior brother fighting. This person is too insidious and unscrupulous." Although Xiaodong is very confident in the senior brother's ability, Jin Mian's endless tricks make him terrified. If you don't see it with your own eyes I can't imagine that there are such cunning and vicious people in the world. Xiaodong was so anxious that he could roll up his sleeves and go up and crush that little man to the ground.
It's a pity that he can only watch and can't do anything. He really wants to kill people.
Fortunately, Jin Mian did not end well, and the elder brother was safe and sound.
So at that time, the younger brother was watching him from the sidelines
Mo Chen didn't feel anything at that time.
"Later, you followed me all the time?"
Xiaodong shook his head: "No. I just followed a certain distance. The stone gate in Burial Sword Valley is weird. When I approached it, it felt like I hit a stone wall and was bounced away."
The force of the shock caused Xiaodong to fall backwards. When he fell to the ground, he found that he was still on Huiliu Mountain, sitting next to the stone couch where he was meditating just now. He didn't even have the window. Come and go to close.
Xiaodong gasped wearily in the dark, this was the first time he experienced all this while awake, instead of seeing it in a dream after falling asleep.
This period of time is not long, but it consumes a lot of his mental and physical strength. Xiaodong's body was sweating through his heavy clothes, his ears were buzzing, and stars were popping up in front of his eyes, and he struggled to stand up.
But everything he saw just now was not fake. Eldest brother has lost his cultivation, his situation is very dangerous!
Xiaodong generated a burst of strength from somewhere, even crawled across the main room, struggled to find out the qi invigorating pill that the elder brother gave him, but had no time to find water, so he just swallowed it dryly, choking his throat sorely.
But he didn't care about those details at all, Xiaodong sat cross-legged with his back against the wall.
If he wanted to find out how he suddenly arrived at the Burial Sword Valley just now, he had to do it again. (to be continued)
