Lu Xueqi [Zhu Xian]

The light from the forest passes through the luxuriant branches and leaves, and sprinkles on Tian Buyi and Zhang Xiaofan, master and apprentice.

Standing in front of Tian Buyi, Zhang Xiaofan struggled and didn't know what to say, if he said no against his master's wishes, but the awe of his master made him feel dazed and terrified, and he cried out in a low voice after a while: "Master..."

Tian Buyi stood there with his hands behind his back, after a while, Tian Buyi said slowly: "Lao Qi, you have been under my sect for almost five years, right?"

Zhang Xiaofan whispered: "Yes."

Tian Buyi said indifferently: "When I accepted you as a beginner, I was not optimistic about your aptitude. You can grow so fast in a short period of time, which is beyond my expectation."

Zhang Xiaofan's body moved, but deep in his heart, somehow, there was a faint joy.

Tian Buyi continued: "It's just that I'm even more surprised that a talented senior sister like Xiaozhufeng Lu Xueqi can have a crush on you..."

Zhang Xiaofan felt anxious, said: "Master, this is all my fault, I shouldn't..."

Tian Buyi glared at him, and said, "Did I say you were wrong?"

Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth wide all of a sudden, this time Tian Buyi was really frightened.

Tian Buyi snorted, and said: "You are just young, and you are not the monks of Tianyin Temple, so you can't be tempted? Are you living as your master all these years in vain? You and Lu Xueqi, I can see that she still treats you Yes, you like her, what's so strange about it?"

Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head, suddenly his eyes became hot.Adding up all the warm words in this world, in his heart, I'm afraid they can't compare with Tian Buyi's sneering words.

But Tian Buyi paused for a moment, and said again: "However, we can only let go of this matter for the time being. I object, not because of Lu Xueqi herself, but because of you..." When he said this, he suddenly stopped, his brows furrowed, and then Changed the topic: "To be honest, although your advancement in Taoism is faster than I expected, it is not enough in the eyes of Master Shuiyue in Xiaozhufeng."

Tian Buyi took a deep look at Zhang Xiaofan, and said slowly: "Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhang Xiaofan felt a pain in his heart, bit his lips tightly, and said after a while: "Yes, I understand, Master, I will work hard to improve my cultivation until I am worthy of her."

Tian Buyi nodded, heaved a sigh of relief, walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Then let's do this first."

Zhang Xiaofan felt Master's generous and warm hand patted on his shoulder, his heart warmed up, and he nodded heavily.

Tian Buyi looked at him for a while, then said: "Then let's go back!"

After speaking, he walked back to the way he came from.

Zhang Xiaofan raised his head, turned to the top of his head, took a deep breath, and let go of his tightly clenched hands.

However, that indifferent and cold voice has become an inseparable concern in his heart.

He smiled wryly, pulled himself together, and followed.

In the following days, Zhang Xiaofan spent day and night with his brothers who had been separated for a long time.

After three days like this, Zhang Xiaofan didn't see Lu Xueqi, whom he cared about day and night, on Liubo Mountain, but saw several other acquaintances, Li Xun and Yan Hong from Fenxiang Valley, and later, the monks and stones from Tianyin Temple. .

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan, Shi Shi excitedly turned to the old man who was talking to Faxiang, and said, "Master, this is the Brother Zhang from Qingyun Sect that I mentioned to you."

Zhang Xiaofan hastily saluted and said: "Senior, disciple Zhang Xiaofan, I have admired your name for a long time."

The old man snorted, and said lightly: "That's all." Then he turned his head and said to the Faxiang: "It's enough if you come. But before I came, I thought your master Puhong and Puhong Although the two gods and monks will not come, but your fourth teacher, Pu, who hates the Demon Cult, will definitely come, why..."

Faxiang sighed slightly, and said: "Senior, I don't know something, since the third uncle Puzhi passed away suddenly five years ago..."

Zhang Xiaofan's heart skipped a beat.

At this time, Fa Xiang's eyes did not know whether he glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, and then moved away.

After Dharma Xiang and Venerable Dali entered, Shi Shi looked around and said in a low voice: "I remember hearing people say that if a person in the Buddhist sect has completed his merits and virtues and died happily, he should be called "passing away". He just said nonsense What died, it sounds uncomfortable, but it seems that Puzhi Divine Monk is... Hey, brother Zhang, why do you look so ugly all of a sudden?"

Zhang Xiaofan was confused, forced a smile and nodded to Shi Shi, then walked back to the place where Qing Yunmen was located, Shi Shi stood where he was, he couldn't figure it out for a long time.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, it seemed that since that day when he heard Fa Xiang talk about Pu Zhi, Zhang Xiaofan suddenly began to dream about the nightmare he had when he was a child, the scene of massacre of the village that was deeply engraved in his heart, and the overwhelming Xiang He rushed, as if to engulf him.

He suddenly felt out of breath, curled up quietly in the dark, where no one could see.

He stretched out his hand, gently held the fire stick, took it to his chest, and cuddled tightly, as if only it could be with him, never leaving.

In a trance, he thought of Lu Xueqi again. After that rainy night, he had never seen her figure. He wondered if she had fallen asleep in this quiet night.

In the dark night, he thought about her quietly.
