Chapter 4 Chapter 4 This Love Can Be Reminisced

"Huaying, come to Tianxin Pavilion to see me at midnight tonight." In the Sanqing Hall, sandalwood incense wafted.Huaying had just closed the volume of Enlightenment Chapter, and stood up with a group of seniors and sisters to leave, but heard the master say something to her in the hall. Hua Ying's face turned pale, and she saw Senior Sister Hua Qing looking at her sideways with compassion.She just nodded silently, lowered her head while holding the scriptures. "Okay, you all get back..." Master Jingming waved his hands wearily, rubbing his temples with his hands - I don't know why, recently, the master is tired every day, and he always rubs his forehead with his hands, as if he has some headaches generally.When the disciples started to withdraw, Jing Ming suddenly remembered something, and raised her head: "Hua Guang, by the way, you stay here for a while."

The muscles in the corners of Hua Ying's eyes twitched slightly, and before she exited and closed the door, she glanced apprehensively at Fifth Junior Sister Hua Guang inside.This junior sister who has the least contact with everyone on weekdays is shy and timid, and her face is surprisingly pale. Maybe it has something to do with staying in the alchemy room to practice alchemy every day without seeing the sun? Huaying retreated with the crowd, but for some reason, she felt suspicious and uneasy, and just followed the elder sister and the others. "Come with me." After waiting, all the junior sisters went back to their rooms, Hua Ying was about to open the door of her small room to enter, but suddenly heard the senior sister whispering on the corridor.She turned her head in surprise, and saw her senior sister continue to walk forward, through the back door of the courtyard, and went around to the back of the hall.

"Master, the Jieyou flower has been added to the medicine stove, and the disciple is guarding day and night, and the golden elixir will be refined by about tonight." Through the window, the voices of the five junior sisters could be heard respectfully. "Okay... at midnight, send me to Tianxin Pavilion." The master's voice still showed indescribable tiredness, which was very different from the usual coldness. She paused, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Hua Guang, you have always been careful with others, this time about refining Xichenyuan, don't tell anyone in the palace."

"Yes." Fifth Junior Sister's voice was calm, and after a while, she finally couldn't help it, and said with some worry, "But the medicine of Xichen Yuan is too powerful, master, you really want to—" "Hua Guang, you can step back." Before she could finish speaking, Jing Ming's voice sounded emotionless, cutting off her words. Autumn came early in Bicheng Mountain, and the mountains were already full of yellow leaves. When a gust of wind blew over, it was like startling a mountain of withered butterflies. Standing on the back hill, Hua Ying, who eavesdropped on the conversation, was a little dazed, not knowing what to say.She was originally a quiet and indifferent person, happy with the situation - but now, things seem to force her to make a choice as soon as possible - just like the night of autumn tide and osmanthus seven years ago.

"Looks like it's tonight..." Hua Qing's worry grew deeper, looking at the yellow leaves all over the mountain, he suddenly turned to look at her in the bleak wind, "Have you packed up all the things you want to take away? Huachang is on duty at night, so hurry down the mountain." "I don't have anything to pack—it's just a volume of Tang poems and a few pieces of clothing." Huaying looked at the mountain in a daze, where layers of white clouds covered the bustling world—she originally came from that place, but Now when I think about going back there again, I feel helpless for a while.What can she do now?

The old good relationship has been separated, and the hometown has been flattened——in this world, she is already like a floating weed. "When you get down the mountain, go north - you don't know if the master will come to chase you in person, just pay attention to your behavior. Don't spread the martial arts of Baiyun Palace casually..." Seeing her bewildered expression, Senior Sister Hua Qing sighed He took a deep breath, and carefully warned, "By the way, you have to keep the Ningbi sword. Otherwise, the master will never give up." "Well, that's natural." Huaying nodded lightly. Although she loved this saber very much, she knew that it was a treasure of Baiyun Palace, so she decided to take it away selflessly.She looked at the white clouds at the foot of the mountain that were parting and then reuniting, as if she was thinking about something, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Hua Qing also looked at the way down the mountain, and said: "Then, let's go back first. We can go on the road at night when we have enough energy." Hua Ying didn't know what she was thinking, but she didn't seem to hear her, and just stood there without moving.Suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, she suddenly raised her head: "Senior sister, tonight I'm going to Tianxin Pavilion to steal the Qingluan flower first!" Hua Qing was startled, and looked up at her junior sister in disbelief. Hua Ying, who had always lowered her head quietly, raised her head and looked at her, the light in her eyes was firm and pure.Hua Qing sighed suddenly, and turned his head away. Somehow, his face felt a little hot because of shame: "You, you want to take it down the mountain and give it to the Pavilion Master of Dingjian Pavilion?"

Hua Ying nodded, slowly clenched the sword in her hand, and after a while, said softly: "Yes... Now that I know about this, I... I have no way to let myself do nothing and go down the mountain on my own .” "Hmm..." Hua Qing responded noncommittally, and suddenly felt that his heart was slowly shaking from the depths. Seeing her senior sister like this, Hua Ying suddenly felt a little sorry for Hua Qing - she didn't know how to cooperate with her senior sister for helping her like this, and she caused trouble again and again, it really shouldn't be. "Senior Sister, let me use the Ningbi Sword for one more night... It's best not to use it, but you have to bring it into the Tianxin Pavilion first." Huaying lowered her head and said a little embarrassedly, "If I can succeed Come out, I must hand it over to you before going down the mountain... If, if I can't come out... then I should hand it back to the master."

After speaking, her voice trembled slightly, and she was about to say something, but suddenly, Hua Qing's voice cut her off without hesitation: "Second Junior Sister, I will go with you tonight." Hua Ying raised her head in surprise, and looked at the senior sister who was usually indifferent.Suddenly, as if it was an illusion, she saw something bright falling from the eyes of the senior sister. "I've thought about something that I didn't have the guts to do for fifteen years, and now I have a junior sister to do it with me..." Hua Qing suddenly stretched out his hand from the Taoist robe, and held the junior sister's hand tightly, his eyes suddenly turned red, " ——Huaying, thank you very much."

Hua Ying felt waves pushing her heart, her chest churning like the sea, but she bit her lip abruptly, and after a long time, she smiled and bowed slightly to Hua Qing: "Master, Hua Ying also thank you very much .” ※※※ Third watch.Bicheng Mountain is still as quiet as usual, and the sky is also beautiful. There is no moon tonight, and it is gloomy.Only the phosphorous fire floating all over the mountain is strange and magnificent. "Senior sister, you are here to watch the wind for me. If the master comes, try to delay it..." Handing the packed small package to the senior sister, Huaying tightly clenched the Ningbi sword in her hand, and said softly, " I went in and got the blue luan flower, and then I came out immediately." She changed into a dress with a waist and narrow sleeves, her hair was tightly tied up, and she was obviously ready for everything.

Knowing that his martial arts practice is not enough, it may be a burden to go in, Hua Qing didn't say anything, just accepted the burden, and nodded neatly: "Okay, you go and come back quickly. Master should be in meditation at this time. Zhu Xiangnei shouldn’t notice it.” "Okay. If I don't come out within a stick of incense, then the senior sister should go back to her room quickly, lest the master find out what happened tonight." Huaying looked up at the Tianxin Pavilion in the night, and exhaled lightly. His eyes gradually converged. Hua Qing smiled, but didn't answer, just urged: "Junior Sister, go and come back quickly." "Okay, Senior Sister, I'm going in." No more hesitation, she lightly clasped the hanging lotus under the eaves with her fingers, and with a slight effort, Hua Ying's body flew away like a white crane, and the toes dripped from the tiles in mid-air , Grabbed up layer by layer without a sound, and disappeared in the window of the highest floor of Tianxin Pavilion in a blink of an eye. Qingluan flowers are placed on the highest floor of Tianxin Pavilion, planted in a pot of Lantian jade.Every morning, the master personally collects the dew from Chenglu to irrigate the fairy grass—actually, I don’t know how miraculous the medicinal power of the green luan flower is, but according to the rumors in the world, this spiritual grass in Baiyun Palace has the potential to bring the dead back to life. can. Second Junior Sister had already entered the third floor, but there was still no sound from inside.Hua Qing looked up at the window on the third floor of Tianxin Pavilion, the half-closed window looked down at her melancholy like a person's half-opened eyes. Hua Qing's eyebrows were a little worried. For some reason, she always felt that something big would happen tonight. Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of "ping", as if something fell to the ground and shattered, breaking the tranquility of the Taoist temple at night. Hua Qing was startled, and suddenly saw a bright light flash through the dark window—it was Jian Guang! Could it be... was the master still aware of it?Did you move your hands so quickly? Hua Qing's palms were filled with cold sweat. While he was thinking about it, he saw people jumping out of the window of Tianxin Pavilion one after another. Their figures were like lightning in the wind. On the way down, they could still hear a few "ding ding" sounds. With the sound of hitting, the sword light fell to the ground lightly.The person who landed earlier was obviously not willing to entangle and fight again, so he sprinted out after crawling to the ground. "Junior Sister!" Hua Qing couldn't help being surprised when she saw that Hua Ying was the one who landed behind her, but her left hand was empty. "Senior Sister, that person took the green luan flower first, stop him!" Hua Ying called out before her feet landed, and pointed the long sword in her hand at the person's vest—obviously in a hurry, and she, who is usually gentle, made a move. Hard move. Seeing that others were alarmed, Hua Qing came out of nowhere to strike first, already knowing that what happened tonight could not be let go, so he drew his long sword out of his heart - just hoping to get the blue luan flower before alarming the master, Then let the second junior sister go down the mountain - as for how much anger the master wants to get angry, it's all up to her to bear it. That person was running towards the mountain gate—that was where she was standing.Hua Qing threw the burden on the ground, and she and Hua Ying drew their swords and attacked the mysterious visitor who had stolen the blue luan flower. There were two more cold and sharp strikes of gold and iron, and Huaqing's mouth went numb, feeling as if the long sword in his hand was about to fly away.However, even with her resistance, Huaying had already caught up, and the Ningbi sword brought out a bright stream of light, piercing straight into the opponent's back. This person's sword moves... are so familiar.As if just met a few days ago?Hua Qing was startled inwardly, and looked up instantly—— With the faint light of the phosphorus fire, she recognized the face of the person who came, and blurted out in surprise: "Junior Sister, stop!" However, because someone appeared out of nowhere and completely disrupted tonight's plan, Huaying, who has always been calm and calm, was anxious and startled, hoping to end the matter before alarming the master, but the attack was abnormally quick and vicious, and the first move was one move "Spiritual rain in the empty mountain", the senior sister stopped shouting like this, but it was too late to stop, and pierced the opponent's back with a "poof". "Stop! It's him!" Hua Qing's face turned pale from shock, and he forgot to lower his voice so that the master would not hear him. He stopped sharply and said sharply, "It's him!" Huaying stopped the sword quickly, but she was half a beat too late. Although Huaqing did not say who "he" was in a hurry, Huaying's face turned pale and her hands trembled when she heard the senior sister's shock. With a ding, the Ningbi sword fell to the ground. "Xiaoyan... You, you are really promising." The visitor stopped in his tracks, with a wry smile, and slowly turned around, holding the plucked Qingluan flower in his left hand, which bloomed in the dark night. In it, it actually emits a strange cyan phosphorescence. The light reflected on his face, but the eyes of the man in purple were helpless, even a little approving: "So ruthless and quick shot—is, is it the empty mountain spirit rain?" Hua Ying stared blankly at him turning his head back, staring blankly at him talking with a smile, for a moment, her mind went blank—yes, why didn't she expect Huai Bing to come too?In order to save his elder brother, he must be more eager to get the blue luan flower than himself, right? ...But, why, at this time tonight? However, thinking of the sword that pierced his vest just now, she suddenly had no energy to think about anything. Kongshan Spiritual Rain... It's still the Kongshan Spiritual Rain, and it's still the Ningbi Sword!That's a curse... It's the curse that the female disciple who was suppressed for life was struggling with! She, she actually just... just killed Huai Bing with her own hands!That day, she thought it was for everyone's benefit that she chose Shufa to go home, but unexpectedly, Shufa practiced Taoism and killed Huaibing herself today! Looking at his increasingly pale face under the dim light, Huaying's mind went blank—at that moment, all the intricate entanglements in the world, calculated gains and losses, honors and disgraces, and planning between advances and retreats were all out of consideration. , she just thought: Huai Bing is going to die... Huai Bing is going to die! She watched him stand still with his sword drawn because he couldn't stand stably.Suddenly she cried out, and rushed over to hug him. "Huai Bing! Huai Bing!" She hugged him vigorously, stood on tiptoe and hugged his shoulders, as if she was afraid that he would fall to the ground and die suddenly, she suddenly cried out of control, "You don't want to die! Don't die...don't!" On the contrary, Wei Zhuang was stunned: from the time he met Xiaoyan to now, in his memory, he has almost never seen her cry like this.She has always been a well-educated daughter-in-law, her actions have been cultivated since she was a child, and she even cried gracefully--the burst of crying now is completely different from her usual behavior. Seven years later, he hugged her again.Frightened, she silently took his arm. At that moment, it seemed that all the fetters of the mundane world had disappeared, no matter what grievances or mutual pasts he remembered; those blank or chaotic life years were no longer important-in the world, he was left with only one She, she only left him by her side.If they don't stay together anymore, they are doomed to live a lonely life. The moment of embracing each other is the moment of thoroughly understanding and forgiving each other.It is just a moment of brilliance, but it can illuminate their entire life in the future. His mood had never been so clear and peaceful. Wei Zhuang patted her shoulder lightly with his backhand, and said softly, "Xiaoyan, don't cry, don't cry...it's okay..." However, unconsciously, he The voice of speaking also gradually became lower, feeling the hands gradually become cold and weak, and with a "choke", the streamer sword fell to the ground. "Xiaoyan, remember to help me... Send the blue luan flower, send it to elder brother." His eyes rested on her face with nostalgia, but he felt that his consciousness was gradually blurring, so he only had time to say something. "Huai Bing! Huai Bing!" Hua Ying hugged him desperately, feeling his body getting heavier and heavier leaning against her shoulders, she eagerly held his waist, but felt the warmth of her hands— —blood, his blood! "Senior Sister, Senior Sister, come and help me!" Feeling that she couldn't help him anymore, Hua Ying cried out a little at a loss, calling for Senior Sister Hua Qing beside her, but she didn't hear Hua Qing's response. Hua Ying had no choice but to support Wei Zhuang and sit down leaning on the steps. When she turned her head to look at the senior sister, she gasped suddenly—under the gloomy sky, the gate of Tianxin Pavilion opened silently. Standing inside the door, followed by Fifth Junior Sister Hua Guang. It seemed that he had changed clothes, but he was actually wearing the crane cloak and feather robe that female disciples only wore, and the white jade whisk fluttered in the dust, like a fairy.However, the eyes of a cultivator are terrifyingly sharp! It should be that he had just sent Xichen Yuan in. Hua Guang, who was still in the pavilion, followed his master and opened the door. For some reason, he just lowered his head and kept wiping the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.However, putting down his sleeves, Hua Guang's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the two people sitting on the steps and Senior Sister Hua Qing standing there, and he didn't know what was going on for a moment. He should have been alarmed by the cracking sound of the flowerpot just now, but Master Jingming's expression was surprisingly calm.Her eyes wandered a little incomprehensibly, and her eyes first fell on the two people sitting next to each other, paused slightly on the broken Qingluan flower, and then turned to the bag thrown on the ground, but she always He didn't even look at Huaqing. The senior sister seemed to be frozen, and she stood aside and looked at the master. For some reason, her eyes were a little dazed. "Huaying, are you going to steal the blue luan flower and elope with this man?" the master suddenly said, coldly, but he didn't get angry——with unpredictable eyes, he looked at the seriously injured man and the man who was holding him. young woman in crown. Hua Ying was startled: I didn't expect Huai Bing to come tonight, how can I talk about elopement? However, before she could say anything, Wei Zhuang, who was gradually in a coma, saw the door open and a lady in plain clothes walking out of Tianxin Pavilion. Suddenly, a strange light like Senior Sister Hua Qing appeared in his eyes. He didn't know where the strength came from, he supported the ground with his hands, suddenly stood up, stared at Jingming, and laughed loudly: "Yes, Xiaoyan just wants to go with me! How about it? Lin Zhi, fifteen Years from now, your apprentice will be far more daring than you!" It was the first time she heard someone dare to talk to her master like that, Hua Ying was shocked, but her heart was as clear as lightning. Lin Zhi... Lin Zhi.In Wanghu Tower, during the dispute with Feng Jianyue, Huai Bing mentioned this name—it seems that it was Master Jingming's lay name. "Huh? What kind of person is she?" "Hmm... She is, how should I put it? She is very gentle and beautiful, with two dimples when she smiles, and her martial arts are also very good." Faintly, the words that Huai Bing said in the past rang in his ears - but, is the master gentle?Is it pretty?Even, for so many years, she has never seen even a trace of a smile on her face as cold as frost. Looking at her master's face as cold as ice and snow, Hua Ying was suddenly filled with emotion... Is the person who has forgotten everything, the one who is alive, just such an empty shell?If it was me, would it be better to die like this?Perhaps someone who sees through the world will think that it is good to forget like this—however, even if it is forgotten, it must be forgotten willingly by her!Except for herself, no one can... force her to forget the past! "Hua Ying, what do you say?" She was in a trance, but saw that the master ignored Wei Zhuang's words at all, turned his head, and asked her coldly, with a more stern tone in his tone. Huaibing's blood flowed all over her hands. Although she tried her best to cover the wound on his back, she still couldn't stop it.Huaying couldn't help laughing bitterly: Is she his magic star?Otherwise, why does Huai Bing always get hurt every time he meets her? "Yes, master. I want to go down the mountain with Huai Bing and bring Qingluan flowers!" Suddenly, she raised her head, looked directly at the majestic master, and answered word by word. Hearing the apprentice's answer, Jingming suddenly laughed quietly——Hua Ying looked at the master's first eyebrow-raising smile in many years, and looked at the dimples on her haggard side, so beautiful and soft, Hua Ying Ying seemed to be calmed down suddenly. ※※※ Between Master Jingming's eyebrows, I don't know what kind of complicated and dazed look he looked at her, and nodded slowly: "Okay! Well said!——I really taught a good apprentice!" Before the words fell, Jian Guang jumped up from the feather coat like a dragon, and directly took the two people on the steps! "Xiaoyan!" Wei Zhuang was shocked, but he was seriously injured, and it was too late to pick up the long sword from the ground, and he was about to block Huaying from the side of his body—however, Huaying had expected him earlier. That would be the case, the left hand pushed the injured person away forcefully at the same time, with a flick of the right sleeve, the stretched sleeve rolled up the Ningbi sword that fell on the ground, and quickly slashed across it obliquely. Both the master and the apprentice used the same trick "Spiritual Rain in the Kongshan Mountain" in an instant! "Master!"However, for some reason, a capable and intelligent person like Hua Qing seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then rushed over with an exclamation. The swords were drawn in the same way, with the same movement, swift and nimble, the two swords swirled in the air with thousands of clear lights, stabbing each other fiercely and accurately. However, it was the master after all, and it was the first strike. Jingming's sword was more ethereal without a trace of fireworks, and quickly pierced through the air. Before Huaying's sword could reach it, it pierced the skin between her eyebrows, and then condensed Stopped like a river and a sea of ​​light.The sword energy penetrated from between Huaying's eyebrows, she only felt her hands and feet go limp, and the sword's force was weak - it only scratched the priest's robe on the left shoulder of the master. "Xiaoyan!" Wei Zhuang tried his best to grab the sword from the ground, but because of the blood loss, he felt that the Liuguang sword weighed a thousand catties in his hand.He looked at the young woman whose life was hanging by a thread, his face was pale but he didn't dare to move. "Master!" Hua Qing rushed over desperately, "You can't kill Second Junior Sister! You can't kill me!" Master Jingming didn't seem to hear her yelling, but shook his head wearily, as if the forehead began to hurt again - the long sword in her hand pierced Huaying's eyebrows, and blood dripped along her pretty cheeks. The bridge of the nose streamed down.Hua Ying closed her eyes, but she couldn't help but glance at Huai Bing next to her. ——Is it really fate?Tonight, if it wasn't for being accidentally injured by her, how could Huai Bing and her not be able to leave? For some reason, Jingming didn't kill the killer immediately, her eyes were erratic and somewhat unpredictable, she looked at the female disciple under the sword but her expression didn't change at all, after a long time, she suddenly asked slowly and word by word: "Hua?" Ying, do you regret it?" "Master, I don't regret it." Hua Ying answered quietly with a calm face, not caring about life or death.Suddenly, she opened her eyes, looked along the sharp edge of the sword, and saw the broken clothes on the shoulder of the master. There, there was a shocking scar - it was the soul that was flattened by the iron and deeply suppressed. . The corner of Huaying's mouth twitched, and she suddenly asked, "Master, do you regret it? Fifteen years ago—" "Shut up!" Suddenly, the master who had been calm and indifferent sternly stopped, and suddenly took a long breath, looked at the dark sky with no stars and moon, and laughed, "Okay, okay, I don't regret it! Hello, Hello!--" Suddenly, she flipped her wrist. "Master!" Hua Qing and Hua Guang exclaimed again, the elder sister desperately ran up to block Hua Ying, but it was too late.In an instant, Wei Zhuang who was next to him exhausted his last strength, got up and grabbed Hua Ying's shoulders, protecting her in his arms. "Master! Master! Do you still want to do such an inhumane thing? Comparing your heart with your heart, how can you bear it—" Hua Qing saw Jian Guang soaring into the air again, his face turned pale, and he shouted heart-piercingly, and rushed over . "Hua Qing, I don't know what you're talking about..." Master Jing Ming smiled indifferently, and responded softly, "I don't know." The sword wind came fiercely, and in an instant, a look of despair flashed in Hua Qing's eyes, and she turned her head to the side, not wanting to look again. "Ding!" As if gold and iron were striking each other, a piercing sound sounded from the sword, the long sword in Jingming's hand was suddenly shaken, and the sword was deflected out—"Who?!" Surprised and angry, the master looked up instantly In the direction of the mountain gate. With that momentary gap, Hua Qing didn't care about anything else, and immediately rushed forward and hugged the master's leg tightly, fearing that she would draw the sword again, and turned her head to Hua Ying and shouted urgently: "Go!" However, Wei Zhuang and Hua Ying looked in the direction of the mountain gate, but they remained motionless.Hua Qing was anxious, and followed everyone's gazes - in the dark night, there was actually a line of torches burning fiercely, winding and approaching along the mountain road, with an astonishing momentum. The team walked quickly, almost running all the way, and the first one had already reached the mountain gate.A soft sedan chair was gently lowered to the ground, the curtain of the sedan chair was raised, and a person leaned forward and stepped out of the soft sedan chair.That sharp fingering wind came from it. "Ding Jiange?" Hua Qing blurted out in shock, his expression also changed, but his hands hugged the master's feet even tighter, and he felt the master's body trembling slightly in an instant. The person walking out of the soft sedan didn't know how to move, but he reached the steps of Tianxin Pavilion in an instant.It seemed that the rush of the journey just now made him feel a little uncomfortable, and he coughed slightly.He didn't speak, but just came down the steps and stood between the couple and Jingming. "Big...Brother?" His heart relaxed, and Wei Zhuang felt that his mind was slowly blurring with the flow of blood.He sneaked into Baiyun Palace alone tonight without telling his elder brother, thinking that he could return quickly after stealing the Qingluan flower—unexpectedly, his elder brother, who had just returned to Huaibei from Lin'an, learned of his movements and led people to chase him overnight come over. Feng Jianyue didn't answer, she didn't even look at her brother, she just raised her toes, and the streamer sword on the ground jumped up and fell into his dead bamboo hands. "A Zhi, I have let you in all these years, but there is always a limit to everything." The man with a haggard face raised his eyebrows, and looked at the female crown in the crane cloak and feather clothes with a complicated expression. I couldn't help being lonely and angry, "I don't blame you for how you treat me—but, if you want to persecute the second brother and the others, I will not agree!" Just now Hua Qing hugged her master eagerly, fearing that she would harm her junior sister again—however, when she heard what the master of Dingjiange Pavilion said to her master, her heart surged, and she felt countless complicated sorrows, joys, loves and hatreds welling up heart. But Master Jingming stood motionless, watching the disciples of Dingjiange pour into the mountain gate, and the glowing phosphorescent fire on Bicheng Mountain illuminated by torches dimmed a lot--it was the first time in fifteen years that he saw a martial artist from the Central Plains. The Overlord's Tripod Sword Pavilion has entered the Baiyun Palace in a big way! Hua Qing felt the master's body tremble slightly, but he calmed down instantly. Holding a long sword, Jing Ming looked at the pair of people sitting side by side on the steps, and there seemed to be something moving between her eyebrows, but she just replied indifferently: "Master Feng Pavilion, your second brother seduced my female disciple, secretly Stealing the treasure Qingluanhua intends to escape down the mountain—I will clean up the house, of course." "Heh..." Looking at the female crown in front of her in disbelief, Feng Jianyue suddenly couldn't help laughing bitterly—unexpectedly, Ah Zhi would become what she is now. "Okay, now that things have come to an end, it's hard to let it go—Palace Master Jingming, offend!" Feng Jianyue raised her hand slowly with a solemn face—it's been fifteen years.He endured it for fifteen years and hid for fifteen years. Unexpectedly, he would have to fight to the death before he could give up! "Master Feng Pavilion! Master!" Somewhat frightened, Hua Qing turned pale, and looked to the side of the second junior sister as if asking for help.However, Huaying's heart is completely tied to Wei Zhuang at this moment, seeing that he is seriously injured and comatose, everything outside of her body can't get into her heart at all, and naturally she doesn't see that the tragedy of fifteen years ago is about to happen again. "Hua Qing, let go." Jingming's voice still sounded slowly, calmly, without any ups and downs, "Pick up the Ningbi sword for me. Then, go back and wake up all the junior sisters—" Tonight there is a calamity of life and death in Baiyun Palace." Hua Qing looked up, fixedly looked at the master, and then turned back to look at the owner of the Dingjian Pavilion—it has been fifteen years...these two people have changed so much.However, it is still like yesterday, drawing swords in front of Tianxin Pavilion. "Master Fengge! You can't blame Master! She, she didn't mean to treat you like this... Fifteen years ago—" In the starless night, Hua Qing suddenly changed his mind, and buried the girl from fifteen years ago. The secret in the hole shouted out. "Huaqing! Let me go! Go away!" Suddenly, Jing Ming turned pale, swayed, put her hands on her forehead, said angrily, and raised her foot to try to stop her thigh The disciple kicked it away. Hua Qing received a blow to her chest, but she refused to let go, with tears in her eyes, she yelled at Feng Jianyue: "Fifteen years ago, Master forced her to drink Xichenyuan! Master! Force her! She doesn't remember anything!" "Go away!" Jing Ming's calm face finally changed, and she pushed Hua Qing away, "Nonsense! Nonsense!" Hua Qing was mercilessly hit by her master and rolled down the steps. Feng Jianyue strode forward and helped her up. "Yes...is that so?" As if he didn't know what to say, the sickly man coughed violently, breathing flat. The corner of Hua Qing's mouth was bloodshot, but she stubbornly wiped it off, and fixedly looked at the master: "No! I'm not talking nonsense! I'm telling the truth! —— I also thought that things have passed for so long It’s okay to just bury it—but, Master! You want Second Junior Sister to wash away the fate! She can’t be buried with you. So, if I want to speak out, I must speak out!” "Master, I have always respected and loved you." With tears in his eyes, Hua Qing turned his head and pulled Feng Jianyue eagerly: "Seeing that Master is wearing the clothes he used to wear when he was a female student tonight, suddenly I feel like you Thinking of everything from the past—please don’t fight anymore! Don’t fight anymore! Don’t you have to die before you give up?” Feng Jianyue just coughed more and more intensely, until her body hunched down.At this moment, Hua Qing saw a few strands of white hair on his temples swaying in front of her eyes—— That handsome boy fifteen years ago is actually so haggard now... "Ahem... No way." Finally panting for breath, Feng Jianyue straightened up and looked gratefully at the female disciple of Baiyun Palace beside her, but her voice was firm, "I am the eldest brother, how can, how can Watching helplessly... this thing, ahem, repeats itself on my brother!" He pushed Hua Qing away, picked up the sword again, and walked up step by step, approaching Jing Ming, and said coldly: "So, Ah Zhi...I must kill you today." "Big words." Jing Ming just lowered her fingers from her forehead, and her face was a little pale and dazed.However, her voice was still calm and indifferent: "It's just a loser from the sword fifteen years ago." "I let you go fifteen years ago." There was a trace of desolation between Feng Jianyue's brows. When he talked about the past, he couldn't help feeling sad, but his hand was still firmly holding the streamer sword. Will let it go again." Jingming stood in the same place, watching this tall and thin man walking with his sword in his hand, for some reason, he didn't draw his sword immediately, and there was a secret smile in his eyes: "Okay! How about a competition between you and me today? Now, you take the green luan flower and take Hua Ying and the others away—the winner lives, the loser dies!" After pondering for a moment, Feng Jianyue held the sword with her bony fingers, and suddenly said: "No, no matter the outcome this time, all of this... should be over." Then, the sword moved, and it was brilliant. ※※※ "Master... But, but you just drank Xichenyuan, and the medicine is about to take effect!" At this moment, a voice sounded in the extremely tense air, frightened and anxious: "Master, you can't compete with others—you have to go back to Tianxin Pavilion to meditate! You just drank Xichen Yuan!" These words pierced everyone's heart like a needle—even Hua Ying, who had just helped Wei Zhuang into the soft sedan chair at the Tripod Sword Pavilion to rest and stood by his side in a daze, jumped up like a needle. what did she say!what did she say? ——Master, master drank Xichen Yuan? Hua Ying, Hua Qing, and Feng Jianyue suddenly turned their heads and looked at the direction the voice came from—behind the opened door of Tianxin Pavilion, Hua Guang, who had always been timid and obedient, was holding the door leaf with a pale face and holding the empty medicine in his right hand. bottle. Huaguang was just hiding, listening and watching everything, almost no one noticed her existence.However, seeing the master fighting like this, and knowing that fighting with others during the drug's onset would be tantamount to suicide, the cowardly she finally couldn't help crying. "Hua Guang, shut up, it's none of your business. Get out of here." Jing Ming's complexion also changed slightly, and she didn't know what kind of turmoil was going on in her heart, but she still sternly said to the fifth disciple who was so anxious that she almost cried. However, even though her tone was as calm as before, Jing Ming frowned, as if she couldn't bear the severe pain in her forehead, raised her hand again, and rubbed her temples vigorously, with an even more unpredictable expression on her face: "Okay— - Pavilion Master Feng, today either you will die or I will live!" "Master." Suddenly, a cold voice rang out.Huaying pushed aside the crowd and walked to the steps of Tianxin Pavilion. Jingming looked at the female disciple whom she loved the most but betrayed herself and Baiyun Palace. For some reason, there was no anger in her eyes, but a kind of unpredictable smile that was hard to see through: "Hua Ying, the one you chose Good sir! ——Don’t call me master anymore, Baiyun Palace doesn’t have a disciple like you!” Huaying's face turned pale, and she bit her lower lip tightly with her white teeth. After a long time, she sighed softly: "I see... I was still wondering just now—after I answered 'no regrets', the master's sword, the sword's momentum It was actually recycled... "Master, you didn't really intend to kill me!... Did you?" "Nonsense, if it wasn't for the tripod Jiange to obstruct, I would definitely clean up the house!" Master Jingming said coldly, but the headache seemed to intensify as she spoke, she raised her hand to her forehead again, and the expression between her brows became more and more dazed. Seeing the master's expression, Huaying suddenly cried out: "Master... don't be hard on yourself, okay? I understand now! I understand everything—you didn't prepare the medicine to deal with me, you kept it for me. Drink it for yourself...Master, you have slowly remembered the past, right?!" "Nonsense...nonsense..." Jingming pressed her temple in agitation, as if something was about to burst out of her head, "What happened before... before? Nothing!" Pushing away Feng Jianyue's obstruction, Huaying boldly walked up to the master, and knelt down slowly: "Actually, when the disciple heard the master say, 'In Yishan poems, only an inch of lovesickness and an inch of ashes is good', I felt a little I have doubts...how can the master still remember the previous poems? Thinking about it later, it has been fifteen years, no matter how overbearing the medicinal properties are, there will be a day when they will fade away!" Hua Qing was stunned when he heard it, and gradually understood in his heart.I couldn't help being horrified for a while. 静冥还待否认，华璎却跪在地上一把拉住了她的袖子，抬头含泪看着师傅一口气说了下去：“师傅是个聪明人，知道师姐为我所救必然感怀于心，为何却还将《玉豀生诗集》交给师姐处置？——师傅、师傅并没有真的要处置弟子的意思啊…… “今夜师傅要弟子子夜来天心阁，我本也错以为师傅要逼弟子断绝尘缘——原来，师傅是怕自己喝了药之后会将所有都忘记：包括本门代代单传的秘诀，所以才要弟子过来传承口诀……是不是？” 华璎仰头看着师傅，看着她枯槁清秀的脸，忽然间，不知因为什么感触，她眼里的泪水直流下来：“悟真洞里面……那残留的'风涧'两字，宫中除了大师姐没人会知道——既然被人铲去了，唯一的可能——便是师傅自己动手抹去的。” 渐渐的，静冥不再说话，不知道是因为语塞，还是因为药力的发作。 “师傅……你、你为什么要自己动手抹去仅剩的痕迹？你怕什么？你是怕面对十五年前你做过的事情吧？可是，那不是你真心要做的啊……”华璎用力拉住师傅的手，感觉她的手腕在微微发抖。 “华璎……你可不可以不要再那么聪明。”忽然间，在所有人震惊的屏息中，她听见师傅的声音低低的响起，那只手不再颤抖，而是转过来，轻轻抚摩着她的头发，喃喃叹息，“女子若太聪明了，便要多吃很多的苦头——有些事情不知道、不记得最好。知道么？” “师傅。”华璎的泪水蓦然再度滑落——这么多年来，自从自己脱离开那个黄金牢笼的家，这世上对她最好的便只有师傅……比起那个懦弱哀婉的母亲，静冥师傅教会她、给予她的更多，让她足够独立面对这个世界一切变故。 “只可惜……很快我就要不记得有过这么好的徒弟了。”那只抚摩着自己头发的手渐渐冰冷，师傅的语气里带着越来越恍惚的笑意，“你说'不悔'的时候，那表情……真的很像那时候的我。你的怀冰也是好样的，他配你，也算当的起了—— “青鸾花你拿去罢……凝碧剑也拿去。 “不要再回碧城山了……你们，该有你们自己的未来。” “师傅！”华璎蓦的抱住师傅，语气急切而坚决，颤声，“徒儿不会扔下你的！” “傻丫头……”抚摩着她头顶的那只手，越来越慢，越来越慢，师傅看着她，眼神却越来越辽远平静，“世事一场大梦，梦醒后无师亦无徒，无我亦无他……如此而已……如此而已啊……” “师傅！师傅！”看见师傅摇摇欲坠的身形，华清和华光双双抢身过来，扶住了静冥。 静冥微微笑着看了看身边两个徒弟，对华清道：“我把白云宫交给你，可以么？当然……如果你不愿意，关了道观解散师妹们也可以……” 华清哽咽：“是。以后、弟子以后也会好好侍奉您的。” “好……但是，任何人……都不许再告诉我，关于以前的事情。”静冥的脸上，有着即将超脱一切的平静笑意，“我什么都不想再记得——这一次，是我自己决定的。” 随着药力的发作，感觉身子越来越不稳，华清华光抱着师傅，渐渐跪倒了地上，华璎俯过身去拉着师傅的手，含泪看着师傅越来越辽远的笑意。 “阿芷。”忽然间，人墙外一个声音轻轻的唤起。 静冥半阖的眼睛颤了一下，缓缓睁开——黯淡的天幕下，没有一丝星光，而那个人眼睛里的亮光却比星辰更亮，十五年过去了，似乎从未有过改变。 十五年前在记忆潮水般褪去的刹那，她只希望能记住他的名字； 十五年的清修后，再度擦肩而过、永隔如参商时，她却只是看着他，将他遗忘。 涧月，涧月……其实自从两年前慢慢开始记起往事开始，每一日对我来说都是煎熬。就如姮娥服了灵药，却换得碧海青天夜夜心，永远无法解脱。既然如此……如今，我就这样看着你、将你遗忘，然后再开始真正清静忘我的清修。 “你……也忘了吧……”她喃喃低语。 华璎默不作声的站起，退到一边。风涧月缓缓俯下身来，看着陷入半昏迷状态中的静冥师傅。然而师傅却阖起了眼睛，不再看他，脸色平静一如沉睡。 风涧月没有再说什么，也没有打扰她这一刻的宁静。 在永诀这一刻到来的时候却只是这样沉默的告别——华璎看着这一对历尽沧桑的情侣，心中忽然有难言的悒郁和无奈——如果换了怀冰，他或许会在她还有意识的时候紧紧追问为什么选择忘记他，会拼了命也要抓住逝去的东西吧？ 然而，是否曾经沧海的人就是这样的从容和淡然，或者说是因为懂得了尊重彼此的选择——或许，只是时间磨去了他们心中的勇气和锐气？ 但是，无论如何，这一次，是他们自己出于本心的选择，并没有任何人可以勉强。
