Candle [Rebirth]

He didn't know the origin of his apprentice, but he felt that the hibiscus bloomed just right that day, and the boy's two dimples were also very pleasing to the eye for no reason. Anyway, he had never accepted an apprentice for so many years, and it would be no harm to accept one now. .

The boy with two small dimples refused to tell his origin, only said that he was born in a bad family and was squeezed out everywhere. He had heard that Yongjia's Four Absolutes didn't care about his family background, so he came here to join him.

He also said that he just wanted to be a beginner, but who told him to look at Jiang Fuyi from a distance across a street of flowers and trees when he came here for the first time half a month ago.

The boy's original words were "just like a fairy".

Jiang Fuyi's heart was so soft that he actually accepted that boy named Luo Jiu'an as his apprentice.This action caused a lot of discussion among the immortals. Over the years, many disciples from famous families wanted to be his disciples, but he had not accepted any of them. Now he suddenly accepted a disciple who has no name and surname, and is almost weak. It is confusing.

But Jiang Fuyi didn't care about these at all, he had heard countless discussions that poked his spine since he was a child, and if every sentence had taken his heart, he would have drowned in the spittle of everyone.

So he had so many 19-year-old apprentices.

The Sijue Sect accepts like-minded people who are not for profit, regardless of age, the soup is very clear, and people with real ulterior motives don't bother to come here.Jiang Fuyi had dealt with many people before, but he never had the experience to tell him how to treat his disciples.

Master Yan Hua treated him both as a father and as a teacher, so he copied that pattern, trying hard and clumsily to care for this extra apprentice.Every time he heard the boy say to him, "No one has ever been so kind to me", he felt that he saw his former self.

He gave his disciples what he longed for but could not open his mouth to.Although Luo Jiu'an didn't know his background, he had excellent bones, and he soon grew up to be one of the top juniors in the Four Absolute Schools. Every time he went out to deal with important matters, Jiang Fuyi would take him with him.

Luo Jiuan is also extremely kind to this master. Jiang Fuyi doesn't know if other people's apprentices are also like this. Everything is done properly, and his small mouth is very sweet. , I can't help but soften my heart.

There were so many things that happened during this period, and Gu Ling didn't know which one, which really moved Jiang Fuyi's "Fanxin".Maybe it was the first time he was embraced by someone without warning, maybe it was the time when this bloodless apprentice flew up to shield him from the sword, or maybe it was the time when the tea was made properly every day, and people paid attention to his heart. There were many more things that he was looking forward to...but he could indeed see Jiang Fuyi's thoughts on him.

However, such a heart... how could a person like him say it?

Not to mention that the master-student relationship is a big taboo in the cultivation world, there has been a gap of nearly ten years between them, and Jiang Fuyi has a subtle self-loathing in his heart. According to his temperament, this kind of feeling must be deeply buried in his heart , It is impossible to reveal a single cent until death.

Because of his perspective, Gu Ling couldn't see Luo Jiuan's thoughts, maybe he just wanted to treat his master better, or maybe it was gratitude, respect, it's okay to say that he was moved, it was just such a thought, Even if he dared to think about it, he certainly didn't dare to say it.

At that time, the world of comprehension was calm, and Jiang Fuyi often took this only apprentice to travel around, and the two traveled all over the country, fighting for righteousness and becoming famous all over the world.On a foggy morning, the two came to a small town under Mingling Mountain together.

That's where he was born.

Jiang Fuyi didn't know it at first, but he didn't feel familiar until he entered the city. After walking a few more steps, he recognized it almost immediately.When he was young, he used to walk on this street, with an ugly scar painted on his face. Either he was stoned by wild children by the side of the road, or he was rejected by passers-by. Those miserable days were clearer than nightmares.

He saw the "mage" who almost killed him and his mother back then. The mage was already old and seemed to be living a very happy life. He wore gold and silver and was the lord of the city.He passed in front of him with a big belly, and at that moment, Jiang Fuyi could hardly control the inner demons he had suppressed for many years, and the hand holding the sword shook violently.

Fortunately, Luo Jiuan grabbed him in time and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be.

Jiang Fuyi took a step back, repeating in his heart the words engraved behind Queyang Mountain and in front of Sijue Gate, turned and left without saying a word, leaving behind Luo Jiuan who was confused, and only called out after a long time He chased after him.

He was devastated thinking that this should not be the case, and he meditated all afternoon, but after falling asleep at night, he had nightmares again. He dreamed that he was intercepted by a few hooligans under the dark bridge hole, and dreamed of the temple where the candlelight danced. The bright three-foot red silk in his eyes, and dreamed of the mage's face that had been demonized in his heart for many years.When he woke up, he was drenched in cold sweat, just like that night, there were silhouettes of two people outside the door, and he heard a familiar voice.

One person said: "Your Majesty didn't ask you to come here for so long to make you fool around here."

He is too familiar with the voice of another person, and it has rang in his ears countless times over the years, joyful, wronged, and joyful, and even appeared in his unspeakable dreams, intertwined into a voice that he has almost never heard at this moment. With a cold, indifferent voice: "Got it, you go back and tell him, let him stop staring at me if he has nothing to do."

But the man said: "Every time you say you know it... The fourth son is well-known outside the world, and he has no weaknesses. It really took us a lot of hard work to deal with him. It took you a long time to do it... But don't let your lord live up to your expectations. "

Luo Jiu'an was silent for a while, before saying: "You came to me this time, just for this?"

The humane said: "No... Your Majesty's plan will be launched in a few days... In order to prevent Sijue Zi from doing bad things, you... If you have to, take advantage of his unpreparedness and hurry up. Do you need assistance?"

The night wind was not cool, and the room was pitch black. Luo Jiuan was used to laying a bed under his bed, and cut off the wick of the candle in front of his tent before going to bed.Jiang Fuyi stared fixedly at the black, extinguished lamp wick under the bed, feeling his whole body was completely cold.

As if in a dream, he heard Luo Jiu'an reply: "No, he trusts me very much now, and wants to get something very easy."

The man asked, "Then why don't you do it?"

Luo Jiu'an said lazily: "It's my master anyway, I'm really reluctant...Okay, let's go, after killing him, I will go back to the Demon Race to apologize to the lord in person."

Subconsciously, Jiang Fuyi hurriedly pretended to be asleep, feeling that Luo Jiuan had sat beside his bed for a long, long time after entering the door, brushing his long eyelashes with cold fingers, and let out a lingering sigh.

He hardly knew where he was, and even felt that he should have died with his mother on that cold night many years ago. The lake water was so clear that it might be able to wash away all the dirt in this world.

Luo Jiuan fell asleep under his bed soon after. Jiang Fuyi did not turn on the lamp, and walked through the room barefoot. The fog outside the window was thick. I can't say the next sentence.

He thought wearily, it should be over by now, it's so boring.

When Luo Jiuan woke up the next day, he saw Jiang Fuyi sitting beside him, staring at him deeply, his eyes were not the same as before.He didn't know why, but just as he smiled and said "Morning, Master", he heard the crisp sound of the long sword being drawn out of its sheath unexpectedly.

The cheerful boy with a pair of dimples had been his emotional sustenance for a long time.

But after living for so many years, he has never received half a love from others.

I don't know whether it is sad or ridiculous.

Luo Jiuan closed his eyes subconsciously, and in an instant he desperately understood that he already knew everything. He didn't even resist, but he didn't wait for the pain from the sword wound, he only felt something warm slowly flowing down his cheek It fell down like tears.

His body was full of bloody smell, he trembled and opened his eyes, only to see Jiang Fuyi piercing his chest with the long sword he had given him, his face remained expressionless, staring at him for a moment before revealing a miserable scene he had never seen before. smile.

He said: "In my life, I have nothing to ask for..."

Luo Jiuan blocked his wound in a panic, with a rapid sound rolling in his throat, he called out in disbelief: "Master——"

He continued: "You take my body and go back to do business."

The two monks who were trapped in the illusion watched all this with gaping eyes, and heard the mysterious man wearing a veil clap his hands lazily twice and asked, "Is such a life miserable?"

Lao Liu swallowed, and said cautiously, "Indeed...indeed."

The mysterious man walked up to the two of them and said with a smile, "Do you think his apprentice should die?"

The fifth child also stammered and replied: "I am deeply indebted to my teacher, and deceive my feelings, I really deserve to die..."

The mysterious man laughed loudly, and the long veil brushed the faces of the two of them: "He has owed his master deeply, hahaha, what a damn thing, he himself owed his master first, and then he was betrayed by others. This is retribution, retribution!"

He laughed for a while, then stopped: "Then you say, the person in the city who bullied the orphans and widows when they were young, and forced them to die, should he die?"

Lao Liu answered cautiously: "Yes... damn it, but..."

The fifth child seemed to understand who the person in front of him was, he interrupted the sixth child, and hurriedly replied: "Of course you should die, you must die!"

The mysterious man tapped the long sword in his hand twice, thinking about it, and said, "That's right, why don't you go and kill them for me..."

He handed up the long sword in his hand, and his words seemed to be crazy: "Those brothers of yours were trapped in the illusion just now, and they probably won't live long. Now I will give you two a chance. Whoever gets rid of this temple first If I kill all the people, I will let them go, how about that?"

The fog around them dissipated abruptly, and the glamorous Chang'an Magic Night was no longer there. The two saw the dilapidated temple in horror. The place where the statue should be placed was empty, but the surroundings were full of people kneeling.They seemed to be trapped on the ground by some spell, and they couldn't get up. Suddenly, there were wailing and shouting.

The sixth child seems to stutter easily when he gets anxious: "Fifth... Fifth brother, you can't kill people!"

The fifth child seemed to be attracted by what he said just now, "let him go", and took the long sword in the mysterious man's hand dully. The mysterious man watched him take two steps with great satisfaction, but unexpectedly he turned around suddenly, The sword stabbed at the mysterious man.

He turned his head and shouted heartbreakingly: "Xiao Liu, run, run!"

The mysterious man was a bit astonished, he laughed back in anger, easily dodged his attack, and stopped Lao Liu who was just about to run out like the wind, brushing his chin with his slender fingers: "Little Where do you want to go, poor child?"

The sixth child was scared out of his wits, but he still roared tremblingly: "I... When I go out, I will go to Yongjia Sijuemen to find someone to uphold justice! You...you..."

After the mysterious man heard "Four Absolute Gates", he paused abnormally, then let go of his hand, and said with a light smile, "Forget it, you can go if you want."

After he let go, Lao Liu ran out without a trace. He ran straight along the road in front of the temple, and he saw the city gate within a short time.

At the same time, he heard the voice of the mysterious man with a smile: "Your brothers and I are here waiting for you to come back—"
