Sang Lingxi pursed her lips, but did not answer.
Lu Xiao said hoarsely: "Master Sang, please tell me... this is very important to me."
Seeing him like that, Sang Lingxi gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "The senior brother said that he found the little junior brother in a valley 1,200 miles east of Cuiwei Hantan. of."
Lu Xiao nodded, and said softly, "Thank you, Peak Master Sang."
After thanking him, he no longer hesitated, turned around and walked down the mountain. Sang Lingxi looked at the lonely and slender figure, which gradually disappeared at the end of the mountain road. , almost out of breath, as if a huge cold stone was pressed.
Junior Brother, is it really gone
just this
How is this possible
Sang Lingxi closed her eyes forcefully, but she still felt unreal, as if she was stepping on clouds, her legs were so weak that she had no strength at all.
He opened his eyes, managed to regain his composure, and then pushed open the door of the study and walked in: "Brother Sect Master, he's gone."
Xie Wanting did not speak, he was sitting in a wheelchair, staring at a wall of the study in a daze.
The warm afternoon sun, through the thin tissue paper pasted on the window lattice, slantedly projected on the pale face of the Shuo Xue City Lord. At this moment, his always gentle and indifferent face, without any expression, looks like a lifeless white marble statue, quiet, silent and hard.
Sang Lingxi didn't know what to say, so she could only follow Xie Wanting's gaze, and looked up at the wall, then she was slightly stunned, her heart suddenly felt extremely sad, and she almost shed tears.
On that wall, there are three exquisite small wooden swords hanging one by one, all of which are no more than a foot long. They are obviously hand-carved. They don't look like weapons, but rather like children's toys. Sang Lingxi naturally remembered that it was made by Xie Wanting many years ago for Bai Hanyuan, Sang Lingxi, and Qiu Yutong when they were young. Now they are very old, but they are still well preserved.
Xie Wanting pushed the wheelchair and slowly reached the wall. He stretched out his hand and tried hard to remove the last small wooden sword, but he couldn't reach it anyway.
Sang Lingxi hurried forward, took down the wooden sword, and handed it to Xie Wanting with both hands: "Brother Sect Leader."
Xie Wanting nodded and didn't speak, just lowered his head and stroked the exquisite little wooden sword lightly, with a dazed expression.
Sang Lingxi only felt his nose sore: "This is the sword of my junior brother."
Xie Wanting was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "When Yutong went up the mountain, he was only four years old and not as tall as a sword. At that time, you were only seven or eight years old. You were very naughty. Wa teases cats and dogs, and suddenly has a little brother, so happy like something..."
Sang Lingxi whispered: "Well, at that time, I was really happy."
Xie Wanting sighed: "Yutong's parents died in the famine long ago. He was hungry since he was a child, and he liked to eat cakes. You just wanted to snatch his cakes, and every time he was so angry that he cried. , you don't want to grab his cake, you just want to tease him."
Thinking about those childhood days, Sang Lingxi felt as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in her throat, and she couldn't say anything.
Xie Wanting continued: "Later, I sharpened this little wooden sword for him. He only practiced for two or three years, and he was able to beat you all over the mountain. You were very unconvinced and thought of many crooked tricks. There are a lot of messy traps, but I still can't beat him, and I don't dare to complain to me, and I am so aggrieved... However, Yutong has a simple temper, and you have a thick skin. If you just give in to him, he will let you go Afterwards, you all grew up a bit, you got into trouble, Han Yuan wanted to beat and kill him, you were so frightened that you ran to hide behind him, but he actually still protected you, it's no big deal."
Speaking of this, Xie Wanting couldn't help but cocked the corners of his mouth slightly, but before the smile surfaced, the circles of his eyes turned red first.
Sang Lingxi was about to cry: "Brother, don't say it... Little brother is auspicious, he has his own appearance, maybe, maybe..."
Xie Wanting was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Lingxi, I was the one who killed Yutong."
Sang Lingxi barely held back her tears, and said in a shy voice: "Senior brother, although you really shouldn't... you shouldn't have allowed Lu Xiao, that scoundrel, to take away your junior brother, but at that time, no one thought that things would turn out so badly." This way..."
"It's not this." Xie Wanting shook his head, "You don't understand, I killed him."
Sang Lingxi was puzzled and said, "Brother, what do you mean?"
Xie Wanting's voice was surprisingly soft, almost as if he was talking to himself: "Back then, Shizun's old man passed away unfortunately, and I hurriedly took over the position of head, but although my aptitude is good, it is not surprising. Talented, yet too young... At that time, the three of you were very young, and life in Shuo Xuecheng was really difficult. The so-called Huluopingyang was bullied by dogs, anyone could step on them, anyone could Take a sip. After Shuoxue discussed the sword, I lost my legs again... I really can't help it, I just want to protect Shuoxue City, except for the three of you, the others, I don't treat them as human beings."
"Brother, what are you talking about?" Sang Lingxi was confused.
"Forget it, it's nothing." Xie Wanting closed his eyes and said calmly, "Go out."
…
Lu Xiao lowered his head and walked down the mountain in a daze.
To the east of Cuiwei Cold Pool, in a valley 1,200 miles away...
In the chaos, an angry rebuke suddenly came into his ears: "Demon, what are you doing here! Where is my master?!"
Lu Xiao was taken aback for a moment, and slowly raised his head, only to see a ten-year-old Qingjun boy looking at him angrily, holding a thin spirit sword in his hand.
It's Chen Yuelin.
It's Master's... new disciple.
"You are talking, where is my master?! Where did you take him? Give me back the master!!" Chen Yuelin stared at Lu Xiao fiercely, his eyes seemed to burst into flames, like a Just a little wolf cub who doesn't know whether to live or die.
"What did you say..." Lu Xiao stared at this handsome young man, only to feel an indescribable dark jealousy burst out of his chest, making him almost dizzy.
Yes, this is Master's new disciple. When I was at the bottom of the cold pond, they might have been together day and night, talking and laughing... Did Master also touch his hair lightly? Do you also lead him to practice swords hand in hand? Also teach him to read and write clumsily? Also... Would you smile at him like that
The next moment, Chen Yuelin felt a blur in front of his eyes, and Lu Xiao had already arrived in front of him, and with only two fingers, he effortlessly pinched the tip of his spirit sword.
"Devil, what are you doing?!" Chen Yuelin was taken aback, and quickly made a move of "Cangshan Luoxue", his elbow suddenly sank, and he pulled back hard, but he couldn't move.
Lu Xiao sneered coldly: "You haven't even learned a single thing about Luoxue in Cangshan Mountain. With your appearance, you still have the face to call him a master?"
"You, you..." Chen Yuelin's handsome face turned red in an instant, and he couldn't help saying angrily, "If it weren't for you, the damned devil, if it weren't for you, the villain who betrayed the teacher, he would have accepted me as a How can I, I can only practice swords against a sword manual all day long?!"
Lu Xiao's mind went blank for a moment.
After a long time, he opened his mouth with great difficulty: "What do you mean by what you just said?"
Chen Yuelin stared at him, and said bitterly: "I am the one with the best aptitude among this group of new disciples. Even the head teacher, Master Xie, has been persuading him to accept me as a disciple, but he always said , he already has an apprentice, and he doesn't want to take another apprentice. I'm stuck on Feilai Peak, following him, pestering him, grinding him all day, it's useless... Originally, I thought what kind of person you are Good apprentice, let him miss you so much, but in the end, you turned out to be a devil and kidnapped him! You, you kind of person... "
As Chen Yuelin spoke, his voice became hoarse, almost choked up, while Lu Xiao stood there blankly, feeling his mind was buzzing and unable to think at all.
What is Chen Yuelin talking about
What does he mean
He said... the master said, because he already has an apprentice, so he doesn't want to accept another apprentice
Master didn't accept him as a disciple
... because of myself
That's right, the master once said that he has only one apprentice, the only apprentice... At that time, I was furious and jealous to the extreme, I only felt that my heart was bleeding, but, what the master said, that The only apprentice is not Chen Yuelin, but... but himself
The only apprentice, the reason why the master didn't want to accept any more apprentices, was... himself
Lu Xiao only felt that his mind was in a mess, the pain was so painful that it was almost split open, and even his voice trembled: "He really didn't accept you as an apprentice? Well, then why do you call him Master?"
"I would like to call that!" Chen Yuelin gritted his teeth, "Why, are you proud? Let me tell you, even if you kidnap him, he will come back one day. I have been following him, pestering him, grinding him , he is so soft-hearted, he will definitely accept me as his apprentice, and then drive you, a damned villain, out of the gate! A monster like you is not worthy to be his apprentice at all! When Master comes back, I... "
Lu Xiao shook involuntarily, he didn't care what Chen Yuelin said and scolded next.
At this moment, some kind of great grief and some kind of extreme ecstasy mixed into a monstrous wave, which hit him hard, drowned him, and swallowed him... He just stood there blankly, the sight in front of him The scenery was suddenly blurred.
The snowy maples and red leaves all over the mountains and plains of Yunxia Peak, at this moment, turned into overwhelming bloody blood, rushing towards him... His vision was hazy, his ears were buzzing, he couldn't understand anything, he couldn't hear anything I understand, I can't understand anything.
Suddenly, there was a slight pain in his shoulder, Lu Xiao opened his eyes in a daze, and slowly looked down.
It turned out that his fingers holding the spirit sword loosened just now, and Chen Yuelin took the opportunity to push the spirit sword forward and stabbed him in the shoulder.
Lu Xiao looked down, then slowly raised his head, Chen Yuelin looked into his eyes, almost involuntarily took a step back: "Devil, why..."
But Lu Xiao didn't do anything, didn't even look at him again, just gently pushed aside the spirit sword, walked past him numbly, and went straight down the mountain.
Chen Yuelin stared blankly at his back gradually disappearing, and then suddenly, as if venting, he swung the spirit sword fiercely in his hand! !
"Boom!!" With a loud noise, a huge granite boulder by the side of the road was split in half!
Looking at the boulder that was split in half by himself, the young man tried his best to bear it, but finally couldn't help it, sobbing softly: "Master, when will you come back..."
…
It didn't take much effort for Lu Xiao to find that desolate valley.
The valley is located in a remote place, and it is extremely quiet. Although many years have passed, the dense sword marks on the cliffs of the valley still look murderous.
Lu Xiao naturally recognized that a considerable part of the sword marks clearly carried Qiu Yutong's sword intent, that kind of pure and indifferent feeling, in this filthy world, no other person can be found.
The bottom of the valley was in a mess, a large number of gravels falling from the cliff, and hundreds of boulders that were ruthlessly cut open, all silently telling how fierce a battle had been here, but up to now, no one I know what this fierce battle is for.
Lu Xiao walked along the bottom of the valley in a daze. It was very quiet here, except for the sound of his footsteps, there was only the sound of the wind passing by.
I don't know how long he walked, but he seemed to hear something, and his footsteps paused slightly.
Lu Xiao closed his eyes and listened carefully. Sure enough, it was not his illusion. There was indeed something screaming not far away. Although the sound of "creaking" was very slight, it did exist.
He raised his eyes and slowly scanned the bottom of the valley.
Not far ahead, under the high cliff, there is a very small but deep rock crevice. The area around the crevice is covered with moss, and there is actually a deep puddle of water in it. "The sound came from the water.
Lu Xiao frowned slightly, and then Pingping stretched out his hand, only to hear the sound of "哗啦—" water, a fat six-legged insect was lifted out of the water by him in the air, and the fat insect was suspended in mid-air, non-stop Writhing on the ground, dripping wet, screaming "squeak", as if begging for mercy.
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and said in a voiceless voice, "It's you?"
Back then, he and Qiu Yutong found this little mirage that created illusions at the bottom of the Cuiwei Cold Pool. Lu Xiao vaguely remembered that at that time, Qiu Yutong put it in the Qiankun bag. How could it be here
