Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    I don¡¯t know how long I have been asleep for this time, but in my deep sleep, I feel the familiar smell all around me. I don¡¯t know how long I haven¡¯t had this feeling of peace of mind.

    So I fell deeply into sleep and seemed unwilling to wake up. But deep in the dream, there was always a tingling feeling that lingered and refused to go away, stabbing my heart all the time.

    With a sigh of relief, Gui Li Youyou woke up and found the room in front of him, as if in a dream. He silently looked at the tables, chairs, beds, and doors where he lived and grew up when he was a boy.  Windows are almost engraved in his heart

    On the wall next to the bed, the huge word "µÀ" is still hanging on the wall. However, the color and handwriting have faded a little, but the strokes still look like they did when they first met.  Vigorous and powerful

    The wooden frame on the window made a soft noise and opened a gap. The gray-haired monkey Xiao Hui jumped in from the outside. When he saw that Gui Li had woken up and was half sitting on the bed, he couldn't help but become happy and grinned.  Without stopping, he jumped onto the bed in a few seconds.

    Gui Li¡¯s heart skipped a beat. This scene seemed to be the same many years ago. If it weren¡¯t for the injuries on his body and the spiritual eyes opened on Xiao Hui¡¯s head, he would really have had the illusion of Nan Ke Yimeng.

    It¡¯s just that, after all, it¡¯s impossible

    Xiao Hui called out to Gui Li. Gui Li looked down and saw Xiao Hui holding many wild fruits in his hands. He must have picked them from outside. At this moment, he seemed to share them with his master.  He shook his head and said that he didn't want to eat Xiao Hui, so he turned around and jumped onto the table in the middle of the room, squatted down, and then opened his mouth to chew.

    Gui Li silently looked at everything in the room, and finally his eyes fell on the half-opened window when Xiao Hui came in. A small piece of light came in from the window, and he couldn't see clearly what was outside. But Gui Li knew without looking that, behind the window,  Outside is a small courtyard, where there is a green pine, green lawn, and a stone path. On one side of the courtyard, there is a semicircular arch. Every plant and tree here has been carved by him.  Deep in the memory, it can never be erased

    The air is so clear that it seems to be slightly sweet, and even the small courtyard outside the house seems to be carrying the fragrance of green grass

    In a daze, he felt like he was home, but a moment later, a stabbing pain in his heart woke him up

    Outside the door, there were footsteps.

    Gui Li's eyes turned to the door. Footsteps soon reached the door. However, in front of the ajar door, the person outside seemed to hesitate for a moment and did not open the door immediately.

    Gui Li stared at the door

    After a while, the door was finally pushed open

    A tall and steady figure stood at the door. Almost at the same time, the man also saw Gui Li waking up. Their eyes met in mid-air, but neither of them spoke immediately. In their eyes, there was a glance.  There are too many complicated emotions all the time. I wonder if it is because of this that all the thousands of words turned into silence

    The monkey Xiao Hui sat on the table, spat out the core of a wild fruit, then glanced at the door, called out "Zhizhi" a few times, and then went back to eating its wild fruit.

    The man standing at the door sighed, and there seemed to be a wry smile on his lips. He shook his head, walked in, took a deep look at Gui Li, and said, "I haven't seen you for so many years. Should I call you Lao Qi or Lao Qi?"  How about you call me junior brother?"

    Gui Li¡¯s lips moved. Finally, he looked at the man in front of him and called out in a low voice: "Elder brother"

    "Everything on Dazhu Peak is still as quiet as in my memory. It's so quiet that I don't know where the other people have gone.

    Song Daren silently looked at the man in front of him. Once upon a time, he was his most beloved junior brother, and the most incompetent seventh disciple of his master Dazhu Fengtian. But now, time has changed, things have changed, and people have changed.

    Ten years have passed, but this is the first time we have met

    "How have you been doing these years?" Song Daren asked, sitting opposite Gui Li

    Gui Li did not answer. He was just silent for ten years. Looking back, time is like water. He has walked this long road without knowing it. However, how can he say the word "good"?

    Song Daren looked at him. The young Zhang Xiaofan from the past still had the same outline as before, but his appearance still had the flavor of vicissitudes of life. I don't know when, this man was much younger than him, but now his Taoism was also higher than that of him.  Although he is much taller, there are already gray hairs on his temples.

    Song Daren let out a long sigh and said lightly: "How is your health now?"

    Gui Li looked down at the wound and saw that the original rags on his chest had now been replaced with neat and clean bandages., it was obviously the senior brothers from Dazhu Peak who had bandaged him up. The wound on his chest was obviously still aching, but it was much better than before he fainted. He was silent for a moment and said: "I'm fine, thank you senior brother."  miss"

    Speaking of this, he seemed to suddenly think of something. He looked at Song Daren and said, "I have turned against Qingyun. Do you still recognize me as your junior brother?"

    Song Daren smiled, although there was a bit of bitterness in the smile, and said: "Master's wife has told us that when the master was alive" When he mentioned the word "life", Song Daren's eyes turned red, and his voice  Obviously choking up, Gui Li heard this and his body trembled slightly.

    Song Daren calmed down and continued: "Master, he told his wife many times before he was alive, saying that he had never personally kicked you out of Dazhu Peak, and he had never thought about what you did wrong ten years ago, so  The master¡¯s wife has told us that today, as long as you are willing, you will still be the seventh son of Dazhu Peak in Qingyun Mountainthe little junior brother"

    Gui Li slowly lowered his head, his body trembling slightly. He placed his left hand on the mattress of the bed and tightly grasped it into a ball. He covered his face with his right hand and quietly wiped away the tears leaking from the corners of his eyes.

    In the room, there was silence for a long time. When Gui Li's mood slowly calmed down, Song Daren's deep voice rang out again: "If you are fine, come with me to the Shouting Hall.  The master's wife is there to keep vigil for Master and she wants to see you."

    "¡­¡­yes"

    After walking out of the arch, what you saw was the familiar circular corridor. Song Daren walked in front of him without saying a word, his broad shoulders and back like a hill.

    Gui Li followed him silently, and couldn't help but remember that when he was a boy, when he first came to Dazhu Peak, he followed Song Daren all the way and slowly integrated into the world of Dazhu Peak.

    Looking back on the past, it suddenly feels like a dream

    His eyes quietly fell on Song Daren's waist, and then he discovered that at some point, Song Daren had a white cloth around his waist. Naturally, it was to mourn the death of his mentor Tian Buyi.

    He looked sad and closed his eyes

    After walking out of the corridor, I saw the Shoujing Hall from a distance. However, unlike the usual peace and quiet, today the Shoujing Hall was filled with smoke, dust and incense, and at the same time, there was a faint sound of choking and crying.

    Song Daren silently walked towards the Shou Jing Hall. After taking two steps, he suddenly felt something. He looked back, only to find that Gui Li was standing there, looking at the Shou Jing Hall, but did not take a step to follow.

    "What's wrong?"

    Gui Li's face looked very pale. For some reason, he looked at the Shoujing Hall where the fireworks were floating and the sound of crying could be heard. He felt a little afraid in his heart, like a child who had done something wrong and did not dare to face what was about to happen.  sad parent

    Song Daren seemed to see something, sighed, and said: "Let's go." As he said that, he reached out and patted his shoulder. Gui Li moved his body, glanced at Song Daren, nodded silently, and walked up.

    The closer they got to Shoujing Hall, the stronger the smell of fireworks became, and the sounds of choking and crying became clearer. However, although there were familiar voices in Gui Li's memory, there were no cries from a woman, nor from Suru, nor from Suru.  The senior sister Tian Ling'er he originally expected to be married to

    Finally, under the leadership of Song Daren, he once again stood at the entrance of Shoujing Hall

    Eight eyes turned around in an instant and stopped on him. Gui Li's body was slightly trembling. His eyes looked at each person one by one.

    Wu Dayi, Zheng Dali, He Dazhi, Lu Daxin, Du Bishu

    These familiar faces appeared one by one in front of Gui Li at this moment. Many years ago, they were his most amiable relatives and his most trustworthy senior brothers in the world.

    Their waists were all tied with the same white cloth as Song Daren's, and their faces all had a look of sadness, and some of their eyes were red and swollen from crying. In the quiet hall, there was an iron cauldron with a burning flame inside.  The senior brothers beside them slowly put the paper money in their hands into the flames.

    Fireworks and smoke fill the air

    Gui Li stared blankly. After the smoke, Tian Buyi was lying quietly on a funeral bed. The soiled clothes on his body had been replaced by a clean set and were put on neatly. It looked like he  His appearance and spirit became much more peaceful. His wife, Suru, was sitting next to Tian Buyi¡¯s body. She stretched out her hand and held Tian Buyi¡¯s hand, holding it tightly.

    Her expression was very sad, but she did not shed a single tear. There was a small white flower stuck in her temple hair. It was a wild flower with a slight dew in the morning. It was elegant and beautiful, with a bit of sadness. She was just nervous.  Holding her husband's hand tightly, she stared at Tian Buyi's face. However, his daughter Tian Linger did not appear in the quiet hall.

      And the big yellow that had been raised by Tian Buyi since childhood was lying silently on the ground next to the coffin bed, with its head lying listlessly on the ground, completely losing its usual free-spirited temperament.

    After Gui Li's eyes fell on Tian Buyi, he couldn't move any further. His footsteps were heavy and he slowly moved over step by step. Song Daren walked to the side silently, brought back a hemp rope and handed it to  Gui Li Gui Li looked at him, a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes, nodded, took the hemp rope, and whispered: "Thank you very much."

    Song Daren glanced at Suru and said, "You go to Master Niang's place." After saying that, he silently walked back to the middle of his fellow disciples, knelt down towards Tian Buyi's body, kowtowed three times, and treated it as his head.  When he lifted it up, his eyes were a little red again. He turned around and took a stack of paper money from Wu Dayi, who was kneeling next to him, and began to slowly throw it into the fire.

    Gui Li looked at the hemp rope in his hand for a long time, and then tied the rope around his waist. The gray-white rope was wrapped around his waist, with a bit of sadness, but it seemed to tie his heart here again.

    He walked forward silently, walked to the coffin, knelt down, kowtowed three times to Tian Buyi's body, then turned to Suru and knelt on the ground.

    "Disciple" His voice suddenly paused, and after a long time, he heard him say again in a low tone: "Disciple Zhang Xiaofan, pay my respects to Master's wife."

    Behind him, Song Daren and other six Dazhu Peak disciples looked at us, their expressions were a little complicated, but mostly, they still had the kind of joy and kindness that blood is thicker than water.

    Even Suru's face showed a hint of relief. She looked at Gui Li and nodded, then a trace of pain flashed across her face. She looked at Tian Buyi and whispered: "Buyi, did you hear that?  , this is Lao Qi, he has come back to kowtow to you."

    Gui Li knelt at Suru's feet, speechless.

    Behind him, there was a choking sound

    The smoke was lingering and drifting slowly, and the Shoujing Hall became a little trance-like. I wonder if it was because the owner was gone. Even the hall looked empty, and it did not become noisy at all because of the large number of people.

    After a long while, Song Daren wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, walked forward, and came to Suru Xielu's house.  What's the point of this?  br>; "This matter is not urgent." Su Ru suddenly interrupted Song Daren and said calmly.

    Song Daren was startled. The disciples behind him, including Gui Li, were also stunned for a moment. The silence in the Shoujing Hall was silent for a moment, without any sound.

    After a while, Song Daren had the courage and said cautiously: "Master's wife, the master has passed away. The disciples all understand that Master's wife is sad, but this funeralcan't delay it."

    Suru¡¯s face was calm and unchanged. Not only that, she didn¡¯t even look at Song Daren. In her eyes, except for the old Qi who just came back, there was only Tian Buyi.

    Song Daren's face showed embarrassment. He didn't know what to do for a moment. He looked back at the junior brothers who were kneeling on the ground and burning paper money, but everyone also looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.  At this moment, Suru called out: "Daren"

    Song Daren hurriedly responded: "Yes, Master Madam, what are your orders?"

    Suru said: "You and the others will go out for now. You are not allowed to come in without my exchange."

    Song Daren was stunned for a moment and took a few steps back. Several junior brothers next to him looked over. Song Daren frowned and said nothing. Standing next to him, He Dazhi, who was usually the most clever, shook his head slightly at him, with anxiety on his face.  Seeing the look in his eyes, Song Daren only frowned tightly.

    He has been with these junior disciples for an unknown amount of time. He Dazhi understands clearly what he is worried about. He is the one who has followed Tian Buyi and Suru for the longest time among these disciples. No one understands Master better than him.  The love between husband and wife is deep. If she couldn't think about it when they were away, wouldn't it be

    When he thought of this, Song Daren's face turned pale with fright, and he could not move forward no matter what. At this moment, Suru glared at them and said slightly angrily: "What are you doing? Could it be that your master dies?  Don¡¯t you all take the words of me, the master¡¯s wife, seriously?¡±

    ¡°Thump thump thump¡±

    ??????????????? Several times in a row, except for Gui Li who was kneeling in front of Suru, Song Daren and other Dazhu Peak disciples all knelt down and kowtowed to the ground. Song Daren kept saying: "Disciples don't dare, disciples don't dare."

    Suru sighed, with a look of deep tiredness on her face. She seemed to have no strength to even curse. She just waved her hand gently and said, "You guys go out."

    Song Daren and others did not dare to disobey the master's wife anymore.?Everyone stepped back with a grimace, but the big stone in their hearts was heavy. Not knowing what to do, Gui Li bowed gently to Suru a few times, and then slowly backed away.  Stepping forward, Suru suddenly said: "Lao Qi, please stay, I have something to ask you."

    Gui Li was startled and stopped, but Song Daren and the others behind him breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, as long as there were people around the teacher's wife, there would be no accidents. At the moment, he only heard the sound of footsteps. After a while,  Song Daren and the other six people have already withdrawn from Shoujing Hall

    In the Shoujing Hall, it became quiet for a while, with only the burning flames devouring the paper money, making slight crackling sounds from time to time.

    Gui Li stood there silently, lowering his head and saying nothing. He didn't know how long it had been. He just heard Suru sigh and said: "Your master has always been hard-spoken and soft-hearted. He has always been brooding about the incident ten years ago.  , although he didn¡¯t say it to me, I could tell that he actually felt a little sorry for you in his heart.¡±

    Gui Li's eyes turned red, he shook his head vigorously, and said anxiously: "No, it's the disciple who is unworthy and has failed his teacher. It's the disciple who can't live up to the master" After saying this, he started to choke.

    The corner of Suru's mouth trembled slightly. When she heard Gui Li's slightly crying words in front of her, it seemed that she was also aroused by the pain in her heart. However, although there was pain in her eyes, she still held back and did not shed tears.  Silently looking at Tian Buyi's face, he said quietly: "In your master's heart, he has never regarded you as a disciple who has been kicked out of the door. Do you understand?"

    Gui Li lowered his head and whispered: "Yes"

    Suru said: "Now that you have recognized him as your master, you can go over and burn some paper money for him as a sign of your filial piety. I'm sure he will also be happy"

    Gui Li gritted his teeth and knelt down to Tian Buyi's body. He bowed three times with tears in his eyes. Then he stood up and walked to the big pot. He knelt down and the flames in the iron pot had become much lower. I think it was because of Song Daren and others.  Everyone walked out, and no one added any paper money. Gui Li glanced to the side and saw several thick stacks of paper money piled not far away, all of which were unopened.

    Dazhu Peak is full of people who practice Taoism. I am afraid that they will not be able to use paper money for hundreds of years. These things must have been bought by Song Daren at the foot of the mountain to arrange for his funeral. Thinking of this, Gui Li felt sad again.  , silently reached for a stack, unsealed it, and turned the paper money into ashes one by one.

    Suru sat next to Tian Buyi, silently looking at the undulating and rolling flames. The firelight reflected on the face of Ghost Li next to the iron pot, reflecting the flickering light.

    She suddenly asked: "When your master passed away, were you by his side?"

    Gui Li shuddered slightly, then turned around, still kneeling next to the iron pot, facing Suru at the same time, and whispered: "Yes"

    Suru looked deeply at Gui Li and said: "After you fainted yesterday, I treated your injury and changed your dressing, but I found that where your chest was seriously injured, there was a red flame sword energy unique to your master in your body, which hurt your meridians.  The most serious thing is because of this, what¡¯s going on?¡±

    Gui Li's heart skipped a beat, and his hands began to sweat slightly. After a moment, he whispered: "The disciple's injury this time is indeed due to the master's heavy hand, but"

    When he said this, he was at a loss and didn't even know where to start. That night happened suddenly, with twists and turns. Even though he had experienced the strife and turmoil in the world for a long time, he couldn't help but be shocked by it. What's more, among them was the person he respected and loved the most in his life.  The death of our teacher is beyond words.

    Suru snorted, her eyes flashed with power, and she said coldly: "Please tell me from the truth."

    Gui Li didn't dare to look at Suru for a moment and lowered his head. After a moment, he slowly began to talk about the night when he returned to the ruins of Caomiao Village and encountered a mysterious figure, and chased him all the way to the abandoned yizhuang outside Heyang City.  Until Tian Buyi died later, he slowly told Suru

    Suru's face became paler the more she listened, especially after hearing the last part about Tian Buyi's death. There was no color at all. She only held Tian Buyi's palm tightly with both hands, as if she was afraid that her husband would leave again.  Same

    At the end, Gui Li whispered: "That's what happened. Disciple must not deceive Master."

    Suru¡¯s eyes moved to Tian Buyi, looking deeply at that familiar and peaceful face. Perhaps, in her husband¡¯s heart, he didn¡¯t have much regret. In his heart, he felt that these were the things he should do.

    She took a deep breath and straightened her body. Although in her heart she really wanted to lie down like this, lie with her husband, and never care about anything else, but she knew it was not time yet.

    "You really saw it clearly" Suru's voice sounded a bit erratic.

    Gui Li didn¡¯t understand for a moment and said, ¡°Master¡¯s Wife, what do you mean?¡±

    Su Ru?With a pale complexion, he whispered: "That mysterious man is really the real person in chargeSenior Brother Daoxuan?"

    Gui Li took a deep breath and said decisively: "The disciple saw with his own eyes that the man turned into fly ash, and the disciple will not be wrong about it."

    Suru nodded silently, and after a moment, she asked slowly: "Based on what you just said, it's not easy for him to knock you down when his mind was in chaos at the end. Was it Lu Xueqi from Xiaozhu Peak who killed him?"

    Gui Li¡¯s body was shaken, and cold sweat trickled down his forehead for a moment, but in the end, he still gritted his teeth and said: "Yes"

    Suru did not speak, but stared at Gui Li blankly, as if in a trance. However, under her gaze, the expression on Gui Li's face changed violently, as if he was suffering. After a long while, he whispered: "Then Lu Xueqi  She, she actually came to save me, no, the disciple" Suddenly, his face became solemn, he knelt on the ground, and whispered: "Master's wife, all the mistakes are the disciple's fault, then Lu Xueqi, she  ¡­¡±

    Suru sighed and said: "I remember the disciple of Qingyun Sect, haven't you been the best friend with her over the years? Even if you entered the devil's way, I heard that she still misses you endlessly and has rebelled against you several times.  Senior Sister Shuiyue meant to reject the proposal of marriage from Master Yilan of Fenxiang Valley Cloud, didn't she?"

    Gui Li knelt on the ground, his heart was in chaos, and he had a thousand words in his heart, but he couldn't say a word. On that night of great changes, although he knew that Lu Xueqi had to take action mostly to save him, Tian Buyi  After all, it was his mentor who raised him and was the person he respected and loved all his life. But right in front of his eyes, the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword penetrated his mentor's chest After that, he almost subconsciously felt pain in his heart.  At that time, Lu Xueqi was rejected thousands of miles away

    After the turmoil in southern Xinjiang, there was a brief embrace, but under this fate, the gap is huge. I really don¡¯t know why the sky is so cruel.

    This time in front of Suru, although Gui Li had such a complicated mentality before, he could not sit back and watch Suru misunderstand Lu Xueqi. However, he understood deeply that the master's wife was very affectionate towards the master, even worse than him.  So how can I ask my mistress to be magnanimous when it is something that is difficult for me to accept?

    Gui Li was speechless and didn¡¯t know what to say.

    The truth is as sharp and ruthless as a blade, and everyone who comes close seems to be hurt by it

    It's just that Suru's face at this moment was not as decisive as Gui Li imagined. On the contrary, after the initial sadness, her face gradually became thoughtful. After a moment, Suru said to Gui Li: "I remember  You said just now that before Bu Yi died, his consciousness briefly recovered and he recognized you, right?"

    Gui Li nodded and said: "Yes"

    Suru said: "Then what did he say to you?"

    Gui Li thought for a moment and whispered: "Master said a few words to me after he woke up."

    Suru asked: "What did he say?"

    Ghost Li said: "The first sentence the master said was rather strange. He just repeated three words: Don't blame her, don't blame her. The second sentence was to instruct the disciples to take the old man's body back to Dazhu after the master passed away.  Give the peak to the master's wife and tell the master's wife"

    Suru¡¯s expression changed and she said, ¡°What does he want you to say to me?¡±

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????? off back by the master.

    Suru was speechless, her eyes were full of tears, her body was shaking again and again, she looked weak and shaky, and she looked heartbroken. Gui Li felt pain and worry in his heart, but he didn't dare to step forward, so he could only kneel down.  He kowtowed to the ground and said: "My condolences, Master."

    After a long while, I heard Suru's voice calmed down slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, get up."

    Gui Li then stood up and looked up. Suru's face had calmed down, but the sadness in his eyes was still obvious.

    There was silence again in the Shoujing Hall. Gui Li silently added a few pieces of paper money to the iron pot next to him. At this time, Suru suddenly said: "Are you also dissatisfied and dissatisfied with Lu Xueqi for killing your master?"  resentment?"

    Gui Li was taken aback. He didn't know what the Master's wife meant. He couldn't answer for a while. But Suru was an extremely smart person, and he had already seen through the world. Just by looking at the look on Gui Li's face, he could tell  Mostly understood

    She said calmly: "Do you know what the words 'don't blame her' that Bu Yi said to you before he died mean?"

    Gui Li was startled and said, "What?"

    Suru smiled bitterly and said: "It's as I expected, but I'm afraid he is willing to let Miss Lu Xueqi and Lu kill him."

    Gui Li was shocked and said: "Master's wife, what you said"

    Suru sighed deeplyShe said in a loud voice: "It's true that the past is hard to look back on, but it can't go away after all. The secrets of our previous generation can never involve you juniors." She turned back silently and looked at Tian Buyi, only to see Tian Buyi's face was peaceful and peaceful.  , looking as if she was asleep, she said in a low voice: "Buyi, you must want me to tell him that secret"
