not immortal

The next day when Jiang Xu stepped out of his room, the first thing he saw was not Yan Sui, but Cheng Yan Tongya who was standing at the gate of the courtyard. Looking around, I happened to see that the clump of arrow bamboo in the corner of the courtyard was scratched by sword energy.

"You guys," Jiang Xu walked back and forth between them hesitantly, "woke up so early today?"

If I remember correctly, Cheng Yan's competition today is in the afternoon, and Tongya himself doesn't need to be on stage, and Cheng Yan is a night owl, so it is impossible for him to wander under the sun at this hour.

Only then did Ya turn her head to look over, and hummed lightly, not knowing what it meant.

"Hiss," Cheng Yan touched the poor clump of arrow bamboo, thinking, "This sword energy...is a bit like the little sword master of the Liuyun Sword School."

"I'm quite impressed." Ya Liang smiled coldly, and walked towards Jiang Xu, "Little Sword Master only has our senior brother in his heart, you should at least have some self-knowledge."

Jiang Xu blinked slowly.

These two people... seem to have something wrong.

"What you said," Cheng Yan touched his nose resentfully, and unexpectedly came closer again, "It's rare that someone other than senior brother...and you can defeat me, so I naturally remember it better."

Jiang Xu consciously hid to the side, and was dragged back by Ya affectionately, so he could only say in embarrassment: "The little sword master did come to discuss with his brother last night."

There was quite a lot of movement, but why did the two people in front of them seem to be completely ignorant?

The remaining confusion in his mind finally dissipated at this moment, and he recalled that there was such a big commotion in the courtyard last night, but Cheng Yan Tongya never appeared from the beginning to the end.

And just saw that they were at the door...

Jiang Xu made a suspicious nasal sound, and saw the grass dust on Ya's back.

Could it be that he went out all night and only came back now?

Ya coughed lightly, and took the initiative to say, "Junior Brother Jiang also woke up quite early today."

"I fell asleep yesterday afternoon." Jiang Xu followed her words without embarrassment. "Bone hurts after lying down for a long time. Sister Ya's injury seems to be almost healed."

"Well," Ya nodded, and turned the side of her face back calmly, "It's not an injury, it's poison. Yesterday, the Wu clan was a monk for a short time, so he couldn't handle it well."

But in the final analysis, she was not on stage and was careless.

Thinking of this, she quickly glanced at Cheng Yan who was acting as a quail at the side: "The secret medicine of Futu Temple is very effective."

"The secret medicine of Futu Temple has always been rumored of life and death, and besides, after all, Yan Ziji went to ask for it in person." Cheng Yan rarely said a good word about Yan Sui, "Naturally, it is the best medicine."

Jiang Xu laughed dryly, and felt that walking by himself was becoming more and more unnecessary, but his arm was still being held by Ya, so he couldn't move at all. When he was feeling uncomfortable, there was a knock from the door.

"It's early in the morning, you guys are quite lively."

Seeing that the expression on Jiang Xu's face suddenly became lively, Ya smiled clearly, and let go of his hand tactfully. Jiang Xu pursed his lips in embarrassment, and turned his head to call out clearly: " Good morning, brother."

"Morning," Yan Sui waved at him, and said warmly, "Why are you running among them to join in the fun, come here."

Jiang Xu groaned, left Ya beside him and walked towards him, Yan Sui was so happy to help him out, and explained as he walked: "It just happened to happen, what is senior brother going to do?"

When he asked this question, his eyes fixed on the plain blue umbrella in Yan Sui's hand. If he hadn't seen what happened last night, he would never have imagined that such a lightweight object could hide a sword, which is really ingenious.

It is indeed a new gadget made by Zhujiange.

only……

Jiang Xu's eyes turned, and he looked at the Jingwu that was always on Yan Sui's waist.

They already have a magical sword, why do they need to bring another one?

It is impossible for someone to knock Yan Sui's sword out of his hand.

While he was wondering, Yan Sui told him gently: "Go into the mountains and look for Xuan."

There is a beast in Zhaoyao Mountain, which looks like an ape, and its name is 狌狌, which can understand the past and know the past.

Jiang Xu was stunned, and asked him, "What do you want to ask, brother?"

"It's nothing." Yan Sui replied to him with a calm expression, "I have never met a scorpion before every time I came to Zhaoyao Mountain. I am really curious, so I thought about looking for it again this time."

After he finished speaking, seeing that Jiang Xu didn't answer any more, he asked slowly, "Does Xu Xu want to meet?"

Jiang Xu shook his head resolutely and said, "I won't go if there is anything to see in the past."

Rather bluntly refusing, he startled himself when he finished speaking, and hurriedly stumbled to add: "I planned to go to the dojo to watch the battle for a day."

Yan Sui raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at him for a moment, and said, "In that case, I'll go by myself."

"Well," Jiang Xuqian laughed dryly, "Brother, do you want to go now?"

Yan Sui responded, with a slight hook on the corner of his mouth: "Go earlier, and come back earlier to find you in the dojo."

Jiang Xu's mind went blank for a moment, and he opened his mouth slightly, staring at him with a shocked look, a little red gradually came up from behind his ears, like a sea tide submerging the moon.

"it is good."

He groaned at last, the corners of his eyes crooked.

……

In the end, Yan Sui really waited for Yan Sui who had pushed aside the bustling crowd and came, dressed in a green shirt, not even a speck of dust on his boots, standing in the crowd and smiling warmly at himself.

"Brother!"

Jiang Xu's eyes looked particularly clear and bright under the light, he called out joyfully, and ran towards Yan Sui, the people around him consciously parted ways—joke, who dares to stop people in front of Zi Jijun?

After Jiang Xu ran up to him, Yan Sui said, "What did you gain today?"

Jiang Xu frowned slightly, and pondered: "Of course there are gains, but I can't tell..."

Mysterious and mysterious, it seems that I have caught something, and it seems that I have not learned anything.

"Looking also needs to be practiced." When Yan Sui said this, it didn't seem to be preaching, but it was as usual as a chat. "Only then can you really understand what you see."

Jiang Xu nodded, and asked, "Did Senior Brother go into the mountain today and find you?"

Yan Sui shook his head regretfully: "It seems that I still have no chance with it today."

Or, somewhere in the dark, there is a force that prevents him from looking for 狌狌.

He looked up at the bright and clear sky, his eyes were dark and deep, and when he looked at Jiang Xu again, he recovered his gentle look.

"Let's go," he smiled softly, "it's getting late, it's time to go back."

Don't want me to ask about the past?

Yan Sui thought, lowering his eyes slightly.

Jiang Xu on the side was also thinking a lot, not only because of Yan Sui's search for Xuanxuan, but the inexplicable sense of prying that he had discovered before was now becoming more and more arrogant. He felt it when he just walked out of the yard today, until he happened to meet The staring feeling came to an abrupt end after seeing the Buddha who was also going to the dojo.

If nothing else, that person could hardly bear it anymore.

And that slut...

Jiang Xu finally raised his head, wanting to ask Yan Sui, but in front of him was a strange figure from behind. He looked around Zhou, but he didn't see Yan Sui at all.

When it was over, he was in a daze. He was so engrossed in thinking for a moment that he got separated.

Finally squeezed out of the dojo, Jiang Xu stood there hesitating, the crowd in the distance made him flustered, so he could only shake his head.

"Standing here may not be able to wait for people," he said softly to himself, and walked out, "I'd better go back first, maybe senior brother will arrive before me."

Today's discussions on the stage are all leaders of the younger generation, Buddha and the little sword master Qiao You, as well as the direct disciple of the Sanqing temple master, plus Cheng Yan, which naturally attracted countless people to watch. There was no one on the current road, and Jiang Xu walked away for a while in fear, but he didn't feel the killing intent, so he was slightly relieved, and his thoughts returned to the previous matter.

It is rumored that when you meet someone, you can know all his past, and from these pasts, you can also get a glimpse of other people's past, if Yan Sui meets you...

Jiang Xu sighed lightly.

"My past," he whispered to himself, "is really ugly."

The dust of time gradually emerged from the past, and Jiang Xu realized that he could still remember every detail. The rain in early spring was more abrasive than the snow in winter, the surrounding vegetation had not yet grown green, and the sound of swords colliding could be faintly heard in the distance. , startled the birds in the forest.

He saw his young self kneeling on the wet and cold ground, thin and small, with dim eyes.

In front of him is Jian Louzi holding a sword.

"Do you know why I want to keep you?"

The young Jiang Xu shook his head.

Jian Louzi stared at him with a cold, scrutinizing gaze: "I have an apprentice who is unparalleled in talent and intelligence, and is now a leader of the younger generation."

A clear look appeared on the young Jiang Xu's face.

He has heard a lot of similar words: he is talented, so he needs some good spiritual materials and spiritual materials to assist his practice, so that he can build the foundation of the road at a younger age and try to climb the Jianmu of Duguangye.

And he is the best spiritual material, the best elixir.

It is also the most humble and has no dignity... the natural furnace.

A satisfied expression appeared on Jian Louzi's face: "It's smart, but I won't do the same thing as other people to persecute you. Let me ask you, are you willing?"

But what choice does Jiang Xu have?He could only nod his head, seeing that Jian Louzi nodded in satisfaction.

"From now on, you will be my little apprentice." He casually threw an unknown robe to Jiang Xu, "My apprentice is stubborn by nature, and I hate such shortcuts the most. If my apprentice is willing to use you Before, you could practice with my disciples, and I would teach you everything, what is your name?"

The young Jiang Xu's lips moved, and finally squeezed out his own name from his dry voice: "Jiang Xu."

Jian Louzi pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "It's a pretty good name, get up and follow me back."

Jiang Xu stumbled to his feet, followed behind him silently and walked out.

"Your physique can actually be regarded as a good seed for cultivating the Tao," Jian Louzi said to himself, never looking back at him, "If you practice diligently, you will be able to achieve some success in the future."

Then what?Jiang Xu lowered his eyes, his expression numb.

Being sucked dry of one's cultivation, using up all the value.

Not very different.
