Ding Ning looked at this stubborn young man, and thought of many old people. He was silent for a moment, and said, "People like you have food everywhere, so why come to me."
"No one would refuse a dead man to become a doorman, but you keep saying no."
Ye Jiannan looked down at the ground under Ding Ning's feet, and said, "It was the same at the Minshan Sword Festival. You respected my life, so I respect yours. Whoever wants to kill you must get from my dead body." Step over."
Ding Ning opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Ye Jiannan continued: "You don't need to refuse me anymore, because no matter how much you refuse, I will not leave, because this is 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 with you, my life seems blank and meaningless. I want to be like you."
Ding Ning shook his head and said, "It's actually meaningless."
Ye Framenan said: "But at least I am happy."
Ding Ning looked at his sallow face and eyes that were brighter than 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 former owner of Mo Foil Sword.
Because the most rare thing in life is pleasure.
Seeing Ding Ning who was no longer speaking, Ye Jiannan bowed slightly, picked up the broom again and started cleaning.
…
"Actually, I envy you."
In Ye Celeng's courtyard, Ye Celeng looked at the medicine jar in front of him, and said calmly, "At least you are happy with everything you do."
Sitting on a soft couch not far from her, Bai Shanshui smiled slightly, and also looked at the lukewarm medicine pot, without responding to this sentence first, but said: "I didn't expect Chief Yesi to be a pharmacist."
Ye Ce mocked himself coldly, "You've become a doctor after a long illness."
Bai Shanshui glanced at her, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, "Actually, I should envy you... Practitioners in the world only see such a rebellious and arrogant mountain forest like me. I have a lot of worries, so I can't be like me, and I just finished the sword, and all the things I was worried about are gone. Mountains and rivers are broken, sects are destroyed, let alone those relatives and friends, even if there are only some intersections, it is still a The old friends who hit it off are all dead, and every time the sun sets, they are really inseparable, and the mood is unavoidably desolate."
The medicinal soup is already slightly boiling, but it will take a lot of time to wait for several bowls of water to boil into one bowl.
Ye Ce listened coldly to Bai Shanshui's words, and thinking about the events of the past ten years, suddenly felt that it was just a big dream.
Those people in fresh clothes and angry horses, holding swords and laughing arrogantly seem to be still in front of them. Why have so many things happened, and it has been so long
Bai Shanshui didn't want to talk at first, but at this moment, she suddenly felt something, frowned slightly, and said, "It's strange."
Then the breeze blew, and she got up from the soft couch and walked towards the door.
Ye Ce glanced at the medicine jar coldly, followed her, and said solemnly, "What?"
Bai Shanshui didn't answer her right away.
Her eyes fell on the side of the wall.
On the side of the wall is an open ditch.
The rainwater falling from the eaves will eventually converge into such ditches, and then such ditches will pass through the walls, and finally converge into larger ditches on both sides of the road in Changling Street.
On weekdays, washing rice and laundry, washing cars and drinking horses, all use the open water in these ditches.
Because of the torrential rain in the past few days, the water in these ditches is very full at this time, almost level with the ground and the road, and it looks dirty compared to usual.
"It's medicinal."
Bai Shanshui said three words.
Ye Celeng did not misunderstand, because when Bai Shanshui opened his mouth, a soft breath released from Bai Shanshui's body, and a light mist began to evaporate from the ditch flowing through Ye Celeng's courtyard.
The water mist was like silk scarves made of the lightest and softest silk threads, slowly drifting towards Bai Shanshui.
Small crystal water droplets kept depositing and fell on the palm of Bai Shanshui, like dew on the blade of grass, turning around and then disappearing without a trace.
Ye Celeng also began to smell the medicine in those crystal clear water droplets.
Her brow furrowed deeply.
The smell of the medicine gas was very messy, and it actually gathered many kinds of elixir that even she couldn't get.
"These drugs could only have come from the palace."
She turned her head, looked at Bai Shanshui and said.
Bai Shanshui nodded.
It is incomprehensible that many elixirs that are very rare for practitioners in the world have fallen into the sewage in the streets of Changling. This kind of thing is probably only possible in Changling. It's just like there is a woman like Ye Celeng in Changling, this panacea that inexplicably melted into the dirty water is also a godsend opportunity for her.
The water mist is always light and fluttering, and it becomes transparent and invisible under the sun, but the crystal water droplets in Bai Shanshui's palm are constantly appearing.
Ye Ce looked at this scene coldly, and said, "The water control technique of Yunshui Palace is indeed the best in the world."
A strange glow appeared on Bai Shanshui's face, she turned her head to look at Ye Celeng, and said, "Although Yunshui Palace's ability to control water is the best in the world, its killing intent is not as good as Ye Sishou's Tian Yishui. "
Ye Ce looked into her eyes coldly and said, "Maybe we can learn from each other?"
Bai Shanshui laughed: "This is something that existed in my previous imagination, but I always feel that it is impossible."
In the next breath, Bai Shanshui suppressed his smile, bowed his head seriously, and said, "It's what I wish for, and maybe we can comprehend some other things together, such as Gushan Jianzang."
…
After Ye Jiannan cleaned the streets around Moyuan, he helped the surrounding neighbors with chores, repaired houses, fetched water and split wood... The people who fell under the phoenix tree were originally simple, and seeing Ye Jiannan being so capable, they also I heard that Ye Jiannan was homeless, and Ding Ning didn't need to arrange it. These neighbors in the neighborhood had already arranged a house for Ye Jiannan, and three meals were even more worry-free.
When he picked up the big rough pottery bowl most used by Wutong Luoli neighbors and started to eat dinner, he saw a figure that looked lonely and not proud, but seemed somewhat rebellious walking towards him Come.
He put down the bowl, looked at the figure that was getting closer and closer, and looked at the obviously thick clothes the other party was wearing in this summer, raised his head slightly, and said softly: "I know you, are you Li Xixing."
Walking slowly under the setting sun, the young man who walked in front of him was none other than Li Xixing.
"I'm Li Xixing."
He walked to Ye Framenan's side and sat down on the steps beside Ye Framenan. He was not good at talking with people and fell into silence for a while.
Ye Jiannan looked at him curiously, "Are you looking for Ding Ning?"
"I originally wanted to tell him that I was leaving." Li Xixing glanced at the depths of the ink garden beside him, and said.
"Are you here to say goodbye?" Ye Jiannan was shocked, "You are the top ten of the Minshan Sword Association, and you have entered the Minshan Sword Sect to practice, why do you still have to leave?"
Li Xixing didn't reply right away.
Ye Jiannan came to his senses, but he was still puzzled and said: "Now you are a disciple of Minshan Sword Sect, even if your family is dissatisfied with what you have done in Minshan Sword Club, it is logical that it is impossible to blame you again .With Minshan Jianzong's way of doing things, I will definitely protect you."
"Of course I'm not afraid."
Li Xixing shook his head and said, "It's just that no matter how much I disobey my father's order, my father is still my father... I am not afraid of what others will do to me, but I must take into account what others will do to my father."
Ye Jiannan was stunned, he began to understand what Li Xixing meant.
"You want to be responsible for this, so where are you going?" After a daze, he couldn't help looking at Li Xixing and asked.
"I'd better go back to my pass. Since they don't like me staying 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 personally, but when I came here, it was meaningless to think about it. It's the same if you tell him when the time comes."
"etc… "
Looking at the back of Li Xixing who didn't say anything more and walked towards the way he came, Ye Jiannan took a deep breath and said: "If you treat him as a friend, he will naturally regard you as a friend."
Li Xixing nodded and said no more, his figure gradually elongated under the setting sun, and finally disappeared from Ye Jiannan's sight.
A middle-aged man with an ordinary face and very ordinary clothes watched Li Xixing leave at the gate of Mo Garden.
Even Ye Jiannan didn't notice when he came, and didn't even notice his existence until now.
This middle-aged man, who looked so ordinary that he might even be forgotten in sight, bowed his head in salute to Shao Muran, who was still sitting on the mat under the tree, and then walked through the gate to the inner courtyard of the ink garden.
Ding Ning walked out of the innermost courtyard, and saluted this seemingly ordinary man from afar, "Uncle Geng Ren."
