Ye Futian took another look at Yu Sheng, and then came to the place where his teacher Hua Fengliu and his wife lived.
Hua Fengliu seemed to have aged much in a few days, and she was no longer as charming as before. Wrinkles appeared on Nan Dou Wenyin's face, making her look very haggard.
When Ye Futian came here, the two of them were playing the piano. The music sounded the same and their minds were connected, but from the music, Ye Futian only heard a touch of sadness.
Seeing Ye Futian approaching, the two of them stopped and smiled at him, but that smile still made Ye Futian feel a bit desolate.
"Teacher, Mistress." Ye Futian lowered his head and shouted softly.
"Futian, how is your injury?" Hua Fengliu asked.
"Much better." Ye Futian nodded.
"It has been seventeen years since I came out of Qingzhou City." Hua Fengliu said softly: "Now I still remember that you carried me, a disabled person, across the East China Sea, returned to Donghai City, and found your master's wife. In the blink of an eye, you It’s been so long, time flies so fast.”
Ye Futian didn't answer. In front of Hua Fengliu and Nandou Wenyin, he seemed to be still the boy he once was.
"I miss my hometown after being out for a long time. Futian, your wife and I want to go back to the East China Sea." Hua Fengliu said softly. After his words fell, Ye Futian couldn't help but his eyes turned red. He knelt on the ground and lowered his head. : "Teacher, this disciple is unfilial."
Back then, he and Xie Yu got married at Shushan in the Eastern Barren Realm. They were the closest people to the teacher and his wife. Naturally, the teacher and his wife also came with him. Now, the teacher said that he wants to return to the East China Sea. You can imagine how he feels. .
"Futian." Nandou Wenyin stepped forward to help Ye Futian up. She turned back to look at Hua Fengliu and cursed: "Futian has just recovered, what are you talking about?"
"Master's wife, I know." How could Ye Futian not understand the feelings of his teacher and his wife? Of course they didn't blame him, but their interpretation was their lives.
Hua Fengliu walked to Ye Futian, pulled him up, and then sat him on the ground together, saying, "Do you still remember that after Jie Yu left, we, the master and the disciple, depended on each other, and later went to Donghai City together? But now the teacher's luck is better than yours, and I still have your wife and Aunt Tang, so now that Jie Yu is gone, the teacher knows that you must be in more pain than me."
"But no matter how painful it is, you have to get out of it. Who did Jieyu leave for? If anything happens to you, you have completely let her down. At this time, you should cheer up. After all, you should know what is waiting for you. , Promise to the teacher and mistress, is also Jie Yu’s greatest expectation, live well.”
Hua Fengliu knew some of Ye Futian's secrets, and of course he also understood what Ye Futian might face.
"Teacher, you don't understand. I can only resign myself to fate this time." Ye Futian sat next to Hua Fengliu and said softly. Emperor Xia sent people to guard the Dao Palace. If it takes his life, not to mention now, even if he enters Holy, too.
Hua Fengliu was silent for a moment after hearing Ye Futian's words, then shook his head with a wry smile. He looked up at the sky in the distance and cursed in a low voice: "You said you don't respect your teacher, how could I accept you as a disciple? You are not as handsome and handsome as me, so how could I marry my daughter to you? It would be unlucky for me to meet you."
"Yeah, why did you blindly fall in love with me in the first place? It would be great if you didn't accept me as your disciple and marry Jieyu to me." Ye Futian also looked into the distance and said softly.
Nan Dou Wenyin burst into tears when he saw the master and apprentice sitting together in front of him, chatting.
… …
A few days later, Ye Futian explained some matters about the Dao Palace.
On this day, a sword came out of the Dao Palace. A strong man sent by Emperor Xia appeared and blocked the sword that was about to leave. Xia Qingyuan stepped forward and her eyes fell on Ye Futian.
In addition to Ye Futian, there are also village chiefs, Hua Fengliu, Nandou Wenyin, and Tang Lan.
"I want to leave. Princess, can someone come with me?" Ye Futian looked at Xia Qingyuan and said calmly, then said to the village chief: "Let's go."
Xia Qingyuan looked at Ye Futian coldly, this bastard.
The sword intent flew into the air and left directly in the air. Everyone around Xia Qingyuan looked at her and heard Xia Qingyuan say: "Let him go and send someone to follow him. Don't disturb him. Let him go wherever he goes."
"Yes." The person behind him nodded.
In the Holy Palace of Saints, several figures looked up at the disappearing sword shadow. Yaya, Zhuge Mingyue, and Gu Dongliu watched Ye Futian leave.
Others in the Dao Palace did not know the secret hidden in Ye Futian's heart. They had no idea what kind of situation Ye Futian was facing. They thought it was just Emperor Xia who was investigating the Jiuzhou Jihad.
After the Holy Sword left the Dao Palace, it walked all the way east, from Zhongzhou City to Shengtian City, passing by the Eastern Wasteland, passing by Shushan, passing by the ancient Kingdom of Loulan... The journey eastward was surprisingly the same path that Ye Futian had walked when he came here. .
Ye Futian didn't know when Emperor Xia would attack him. His fate was no longer under his control, so he didn't take the teacher back by himself. He was not fast enough and worried that he would be taken back on the way, so he asked the village chief to Escort this journey.
Entering the Land of Hundred Kingdoms, there are many familiar memories of Ye Futian, Cangye Kingdom, and Nandou Kingdom. The Holy Sword moves forward all the way and enters Nandou Donghai City. In the small city below, there are Nandou Family and Donghai Academy. It's a memory of the past. Yi Xiang should still be the palace master of Donghai Academy now.
However, he did not stop at Donghai City. His wife Nandou Wenyin did not even go to the Nandou Palace to see her brother, nor did she go to the Nandou Family. When they passed by Donghai City, the Holy Sword sailed into the East China Sea and traveled over the vast sea. , go all the way and enter Qingzhou City.
This island city is where Ye Futian grew up. After leaving last time, he thought he would never come back.
"Village Chief, please go back." Ye Futian said to the village chief when they arrived at the coast of Qingzhou City.
"Yes." The village chief nodded lightly, pierced the air with his sword, and his figure instantly disappeared between heaven and earth.
"Teacher, Mistress, where are we staying?" Ye Futian asked: "I'm afraid the place in Qingzhou Academy has been taken over by others. Do you want to go?"
In the past, teacher Xie Yu lived with him at Qingzhou Academy for three years. Watching Jie Yu grow up there naturally gave him special emotions.
"Don't disturb others, Futian, you decide, you can find a place at will." Hua Fengliu said, this time Ye Futian sent them back, and also planned to stay with them to accompany them for the last period of time, if Emperor Xia or Dong Emperor Huang wants him to die, so he should die in Qingzhou City.
This is my hometown after all, and it is a good choice to bury my bones here.
I hope I won’t be like Mr. Caotang, where a group of people came and took me away.
"The scenery beside Qingzhou Lake is pretty good, why don't we go there and buy a house." Ye Futian said.
"It's up to you." Hua Fengliu didn't have any objections. When they came back, they lived in seclusion in the world. They no longer wanted to experience the ups and downs of the outside world, so they lived their lives peacefully like this.
Hua Jieyu's death was a huge blow to them.
"Okay." Ye Futian nodded, and the group entered Qingzhou City directly.
Ye Futian thought about returning to his former Ye Mansion, but it was bought by his father's friend Uncle Feng Ruhai. Feng Qingxue lived there last time he came back, so Ye Futian didn't want to disturb it.
He didn't want to alarm anyone, he just wanted to spend this time quietly.
Maybe, this could be the last part of his life, so why bother others.
Qingzhou City is small to him, but to ordinary people living in Qingzhou City, it is still very big, just like he was back then.
Ye Futian quickly bought an elegant small courtyard to live in by the Qingzhou Lake. It was not big and simple, but it was more than enough to accommodate the few of them.
After finishing the resettlement, Ye Futian moved stools for Hua Fengliu and Nandou Wenyin to sit down in the simple courtyard. Tang Lan stood beside them silently. Ye Futian handed over a stool and said, "Aunt Tang, you Sit too."
"Yes." Tang Lan nodded and saw Ye Futian also sitting down, lying there lazily, closing his eyes and feeling the sunshine.
"Futian." Tang Lan seemed to hesitate, Ye Futian smiled and said: "Aunt Tang, what's wrong?"
Tang Lan looked at him, but didn't say anything after all, and shook her head. Although these people always smiled and chatted, and seemed not sad at all, she could feel the desolation and sadness coming from deep inside.
All of this seems to be hidden under a smile.
"Futian, do you really plan to live here?" Nandou Wenyin said.
"Yes, Master, I will accompany the teacher and Master." Ye Futian nodded.
"If he likes it, let him do it." Hua Fengliu said to Nandou Wenyin, who nodded.
Ye Futian opened his eyes and looked at the sky. Jie Yu was no longer there. In this last period of time, he should stay with his teacher and his wife.
"Teacher, Mistress, I'm going out for a walk." Ye Futian stood up and said.
"Yes." Hua Fengliu nodded.
Ye Futian stood up and left. The breeze by Qingzhou Lake was slightly cool. He took a casual walk and unknowingly came to the place where he and Xie Yu held hands.
By the lakeside, there were many people laughing, including boys, girls, and young lovers, just like a painting.
The wind blew by, and Ye Futian's body stood there like a sculpture, with a faint smile always in his eyes.
I don’t know how long I stood here, but red clouds appeared in the sky, and then the sun set and night fell.
The night view on the shores of Qingzhou Lake is even more beautiful. Cruise ships and boats are constantly coming and going, and sometimes fireworks are set off by tourists on the cruise ships. They enjoy the beautiful scenery and laugh with laughter.
Ye Futian looked at the fireworks with his eyes a little crazy. It was as if time had traveled back to that day eighteen years ago. The two of them were holding hands by the lake. They were standing where he was at the moment, looking at the sky. The fireworks bloomed, breathtakingly beautiful.
That year, she held his hand and looked at the fireworks in the sky and asked, "Does this mean our relationship is confirmed?"
That year, the fireworks were so beautiful.
That year, she was even more beautiful.
Smiling, a tear fell down.
The wind blew by, fluttering my clothes, and my long hair was flying. At this moment, my head was full of black hair, half of which was white!
