When Ronglin woke up the next day, before opening his eyes, he fished subconsciously, but he didn't catch the fish, so he widened his sleepy eyes a little. Rong Lin knew that she was used to getting up early, so she probably got up early to make breakfast.
After Rong Lin tidied up and went out, he saw that the dining table was empty, and there was no sumptuous breakfast as he had imagined.
... which is strange.
Hearing the sound of rushing water in the bathroom, Rong Lin went looking for the sound, only to see that Ah Lian had just finished bathing, and his hair was still a little wet.
Ah Lian was a little surprised when he saw him, and called softly, "God."
Rong Lin let out a "huh" and walked over. Seeing that her brows and eyes were a little tired, her rosy face was much paler than usual, so she touched her face and said, "Why is your complexion so bad? But where is it?" uncomfortable?"
His soft-spoken voice was rare and gentle.
Ah Lian gave him a complicated look, thought for a while, then lowered his head and said, "I was too tired last night..."
last night...
Rong Lin's face froze, thinking of his incomparable bravery last night, he felt a little embarrassed, his ears burned slightly, and he said, "It's my fault."
Ah Lian didn't speak, and then said: "I'll go make breakfast for God." Then he hurried to the kitchen.
Rong Lin felt that her behavior was a little weird, but he didn't know what was weird for a while, and thought that she might be shy, so he just watched her earnestly make breakfast.
She is a virtuous fish, and her breakfast is simple and ready in no time. Rong Lin pulled her to sit down together, chatted for a while, and saw that her mood was not as high as usual, and she was listless, as if she had suffered a serious illness. Rong Lin said: "I don't think we need to go to Jiuxiao Pavilion today, just stay in Xiaoyao Hall to rest."
Ah Lian opened his eyes wide, and immediately said: "I'm fine, and... and I'm already poor, if I miss class again, I won't be able to keep up with other disciples."
Rong Lin said confidently, "With me making up lessons for you, what are you afraid of?"
I don't know how many disciples in Jiuxiao Pavilion are envious of her being able to be tutored by God Rong Lin personally, and Ah Lian has experienced it personally, so he naturally knows how effective it is. She smiled and said persistently, "I'm really fine."
Rong Lin knew that she was hardworking, so it was hard to say anything more, but she was still a little worried, and said, "I'm going to be away for a few days, so take care of yourself during this time."
Ah Lian raised his head in surprise: "Is God going on a long trip?"
Rong Lin said: "Yeah, it's rare to be idle for a few months, and I'm going to be busy again. This time I'm going to a place of extreme cold."
Rong Lin is the God of the Nine Heavens, the God of War in the Heaven Realm. Now that the Six Realms are at peace, there is not much fighting, but he still has a lot of things to do. After hearing this, Ah Lian's eyes sparkled, and he said nervously: "Then God, please be careful and take good care of yourself."
Rong Lin agreed very usefully.
Ah Lian asked again: "How long will God be going?"
Rong Lin thought for a while, and said, "It will take at least ten and a half months." Seeing that the little fish demon lowered his head slightly, frowning, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he felt that she probably missed him too much and was reluctant to be with him. separated for so long. Rong Lin smiled slightly, touched her face and said, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Ah Lian nodded, "Yes", and said nothing more.
When he left Xiaoyao Hall, Rong Lin saw her carrying a bulging little book bag, so he smiled and said, "Why is it so full?"
Ah Lian opened his eyes wide and let out an "ah" before saying: "I... I have a lot of homework these days, and I don't understand many things, so I have to come back and review a lot."
She has always been studious, and Rong Lin is no stranger to it. Looking at her fair face, he feels a little bit reluctant to part with her for so many days. Rong Lin pinched her cheek and said: "Go ahead, it doesn't matter if you're late, Chongxu dare not make things difficult for you anymore."
Ah Lian then rode the Tianma to Jiuxiao Pavilion.
'
"You said... you want to drop out of school?" Venerable Chongxu glanced at the little girl in front of him, and said in surprise, "Although you have been lagging behind in the fire department class, I think you have made great progress in the past month, and you have adapted to the fire department when you want to come." The courses in the department, so you think of dropping out at this juncture? But what difficulties have you encountered, if you have any, please tell me."
Immortal Huaishuang on the side also said: "Yes, you are hardworking and down-to-earth. If you continue to stay in Jiuxiao Pavilion, your future future will be immeasurable. If you are worried that you will not be able to get a good arrangement after graduation, I can help you. Find an errand for you in Jiuxiao Pavilion." Immortal Huaishuang obviously admires this diligent little girl very much, after all, she is the only disciple who listens carefully in every class, which is really rare.
Ah Lian looked at Venerable Chongxu, then at Immortal Huaishuang, and said, "Thank you two immortals, I don't have any difficulties as a disciple, it's just... I think I'm learning too much here, so I still want to go back to Dongze Lake , it is more suitable for me, and I hope His Holiness can approve it."
It just so happened that both Shangshen Xiao Bai and Rong Lin were absent, so Venerable Chongxu was in full charge of Jiuxiao Pavilion for the time being.
Venerable Chongxu knew that this little girl was not easy, after all, God Ronglin protected him so much, he didn't know what to do for a while, but he had no reason not to approve the disciple's withdrawal from school.
Venerable Chongxu said earnestly: "Although I have been stricter with you on weekdays, it's all for your own good..."
Ah Lian said: "Disciple understands." She has always understood Venerable Chongxu's good intentions.
Venerable Chongxu paused, looked at her, saw her firm face, and said, "Forget it, since you insist on this, then I will fulfill you." He picked up the pen, waved his hand, and approved Ah Lian's request. Withdrawal application.
He handed it to her, and he did not forget to tell her: "Actually, I still admire you very much. If you are destined to come to Jiuxiao Pavilion in the future, don't forget to visit me."
Venerable Chongxu has cultivated countless talents in Jiuxiao Pavilion, and is known for his strictness. The immortals beside him, after their disciples graduate, come back every year to visit or meet for dinner. But none of the disciples visited him or invited him. After graduation, all the disciples hid him far away. Although they had left the Jiuxiao Pavilion, the reverend Chongxu was still in their hearts, but his prestige was still there.
Ah Lian said sincerely, "Yes."
Venerable Chongxu smiled, he had heard such words countless times every year, watched them graduate one by one, smiled and said that he would come back to see him in the future, he was full of anticipation in his heart, and heard in Jiuxiao Pavilion that the disciples he had cultivated had become talents. I don't know how beautiful it is outside, and he will proudly say to the other immortals: "That is the disciple I taught..."
But the fairy next to him would say: "It's been so many years since I graduated, why don't people come to visit your mentor?"
At that time, Venerable Chongxu's expression froze, he could only smile and said: "I'm busy." But his heart was more or less bitter.
At this moment, Venerable Chongxu still smiled at Ah Lian: "Okay, I'll wait."
Ah Lian went to go through the formalities for dropping out of school, and Immortal Mengji also heard the news of her dropping out, but he was very sad in his heart, and said, "Xiao Lian, remember to miss me."
Ah Lian smiled: "Well, I will always remember the immortal." To her, Jiuxiao Pavilion is like a dream, and she will remember everyone in the dream clearly, and she will never forget it for the rest of her life.
When Ah Lian went back, Tian Luo and the others were still in class. Thinking of Tian Luo crying when she heard the news that she was leaving, she felt sad and sad.
It will take some time before she packs up her things. When she came, she didn't bring many things with her. After tidying up, most of them were put into the jade gourd worn at her waist.
Except for an extra inconspicuous package wrapped in cyan cloth.
After tidying up, she took out her pen again, left a simple letter to Shangshen, and then seriously wrote a letter of Heli. She had planned to write a letter to Heli before, but now she is very familiar with writing, and she finished it in three or two strokes. After signing her name, she dipped her thumb in the red mud and made her fingerprints on it with familiar movements.
She went to Xiaoyao Temple.
Shangshen will not come back for half a month, and the hall was deserted, she cleaned it up, arranged his clothes, and handed the letter to Tianma before leaving. When Shangshen returns, Tianma will give Xinhe and Lishu to Shangshen.
The celestial horses in the stables were usually fed by Ah Lian, so naturally they were reluctant, especially the little white horse she was riding, which kept rubbing against her neck.
Ah Lian's eyes were also a little red, and he raised his hand to stroke its mane and said, "Take care of yourself, I will miss you too." As he spoke, he said to the other horses in the stable, "I will miss everyone. "
The last time she bought water plants for Tianma, in the past these Tianma devoured them one by one, I don't know how much they like to eat them, but now they refuse to open their mouths and don't eat any of them.
Ah Lian said helplessly: "Even if you don't eat, I still have to go... Let me happily feed you one last time, so that we can get together and relax, okay?"
No one made a sound, but this time when Ah Lian went to feed them, all the Pegasus horses were well-behaved and quietly finished eating the dried water plants.
'
When going back, Tian Luo hugged her and cried like a conch of tears, sobbing and saying: "May I not leave, I can't bear you..."
Ah Lian wiped her tears for her: "Honor Chongxu has approved, I'm leaving soon. After I leave, take good care of yourself... Don't cry, it won't be pretty anymore. I live in the cave Zehu, after you graduate, you can come to Dongze Lake as a guest, and I will introduce Ah Yu to you."
Tian Luo sniffed, glanced at the blue package that was set aside, pulled Ah Lian's sleeve carefully and said, "Is there no room for maneuver in Ah Lian's affairs? I think God, he really likes you. "
Ah Lian knew what she meant, so she said seriously: "I already understand the meaning of Shangshen, he said it very clearly. I came to Jiuxiao Pavilion to repay my kindness. Since Shangshen doesn't want to eat me, why not eat me?" I don't mind staying."
Tian Luo knew her temperament, she looked soft and weak, but she was actually stronger than anyone else, and no one could change what she had made up her mind to, so she nodded and said, "That's good. I'll send you out."
Ah Lian said yes.
She picked up the package and was about to go out, when she met the second daughter of Yigui and Yizhang. Although Yigui and Yizhang had minor conflicts with them every now and then, after all they had lived together for so long, they still felt a little bit reluctant to part with each other. Na Yizhang said: "Then who... Fathead Yu, you are leaving so suddenly?"
Ah Lian smiled slightly and said, "I find that I'm still not suitable for this place..." She looked at Yizhang, then at Yigui, and continued, "I hope you can get along well with Tian Luo, she is timid, but very kind."
Yi Zhang pouted and said, "Who would argue with a bumpkin?"
Yi Gui said, "Don't worry." Then he smiled, "I always feel that you will come back again."
Really? Ah Lian smiled with the big guys, and was sent out by Tian Luo.
When they walked to the Liuyun Terrace, they saw all the disciples of the fire department class. Standing at the front were Xiao Zao, Huo Jin, Bai Yu, Yun Qiao and Hua Ping.
Xiao Zao hurriedly hugged her, weeping uncontrollably. Huaping is the same, crying and complaining why she dropped out of school suddenly, and said: "You leave, and I will be the last one in the fire department class in the future..."
Ah Lian just smiled.
Yun Qiao was born as a dragon girl in the East China Sea, she was pregnant with a spring, so it was not easy to cry, so she tried her best not to cry.
Everyone hugged and said goodbye to her one by one, and the white sturgeon was the last one.
White Sturgeon looked down at her, showing no expression on his dark handsome face, and finally gave her a hug and said, "Fathead Yu, without me, be careful on the road."
Ah Lian naturally smiled and said yes.
After saying goodbye, she walked out of the gate of Jiuxiao Pavilion, and waved when she saw everyone was there.
At this time, the bell just rang and the class was about to start.
She told them to go back to class quickly, and seeing them leave reluctantly, she smiled, turned around, and walked slowly towards the opposite direction of Jiuxiao Pavilion.
After walking a few steps, she turned around and glanced at the gleaming plaque of the Jiuxiao Pavilion and the magnificent attic inside the pavilion.
She lowered her head and opened the blue package in her arms a little.
Inside is an egg with a golden shell.
She stroked her lightly a few times, bent her lips, and said softly, "Baby, we're home."
