The Meng Family's Sun Moon Island is the busiest and most tranquil island in the Meng Family's sea area.
On Sun Moon Island, people come and go every day, and they are all passers-by. But some places on Sun Moon Island have never changed.
For example, some monks' cave doors are always closed. A girl who looks to be only eight or nine years old, wearing two buns, a simple pair of golden flowers the size of fingernails, and two tassels of the same color, sitting leisurely on a bluestone, holding her hands Chin, looking boredly at the cave not far away.
While watching, the girl murmured,
"It's already the third year, why doesn't this monk named Chu go out?" This year is the eighth year since the girl came to Meng Family Sun Moon Island.
For eight years, the girl has been looking for some famous formation masters on Sun Moon Island, trying to decipher an unknown formation.
However, eight years later, there has been no progress. However, the Meng Family's Sun Moon Island is the largest island in the Meng Family's sea area. After eight years, some formation masters still recognized something about the formation.
It's a pity that the formation master who knows the most about this formation can only tell the approximate origin of this formation, and the more specific details are unknown.
It wasn't until five years ago that the girl learned from some channels that in recent years, a new formation master had appeared on the Meng family's Sun Moon Island. This formation master rarely appeared on weekdays, but every time he appeared, he would A number of high-quality formations emerged.
There are some formations, even strange formations that have never been seen before. Although they are not peerless formations, and there are many formations with similar effects in the boundless sea, their concepts and techniques are very unique.
In the first two years after its appearance, it did not cause much repercussions. It was only later that this rarely seen formation master once received praise and praise from a formation master, and finally gradually attracted the attention of the formation master in the Meng family sea area. Teachers pay attention.
Therefore, the girl had been coming to Sun Moon Island for eight years, and it was only in her fifth year that she heard about the existence of this formation master for the first time.
The technique is unique and the formation is ingenious, unprecedented. Isn't this exactly the characteristic of the formation that suits her?
When the girl heard the evaluation of this formation master for the first time, her eyes immediately lit up and she kept asking about the whereabouts of this formation master. However, this formation master was really low-key and it took her a while to find out.
When the girl found the gate of the formation master's cave, she was shocked to find that the other party had actually activated the retreat formation, which was obviously a no-disturbance state.
If you ask for help from others, you must treat them with courtesy. The girl took a deep breath and started her three-year stay.
Every day, in addition to going out to look for the new formation master who came to Sun Moon Island, I would wait in front of the gate of this formation master's cave at a fixed time. I would never miss it for a day, for fear that I would miss it if I made a mistake. .
A girl who was originally impatient, she warned herself countless times in her heart to be patient, good things will take a long time, so she can't be impatient.
After three full years, the girl felt that her xinxing had actually improved. Looking at the setting sun, the girl lowered her head in frustration and sighed maturely. It seemed that today was going to be a fruitless day.
The girl walked dejectedly to the nearby cave. In order to wait for this formation master, they even moved their living quarters here.
Yes, they. The girl is not alone. At this time, at the gate of the cave nearby, there was an old man with a long beard, leaning on a cane, looking at the setting sun with cloudy but peaceful eyes, looking at the glow in the sky, standing still like a stone.
When there was a faint sound of footsteps in his ears, the old man slowly moved his body and looked sideways at the girl who was returning at sunset not far away. A kind smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
"Eleven, are you back?" The old man's voice was gentle, neither fast nor slow, neither light nor serious, but it fell right into the girl's ears.
Eleven, that is, the girl, raised her face to the old man. The dejected look on her face instantly disappeared without a trace, and what appeared instead was a bright smile.
"Grandpa Gui, I'm back," Eleven jumped twice before falling into the cave gate very lightly and standing beside the old man.
"Are you out to bask in the sun again?" Grandpa Gui chuckled, leaning on a cane and letting the little eleven support one of his hands as he slowly walked towards the cave.
"Yes, the sun at dusk is the softest and warmest. Now that Grandpa is getting old, the morning sun is too cold and the noon sun is too hot, so I can enjoy the sunset." Eleven lowered his eyelashes slightly, his eyes half-covered. There was an inexplicable light shining, and his lips pursed slightly.
Grandpa Gui's health is getting worse and worse. In the first two years when he came to Riyue Island, he could still go out with Shiyi. Gradually, it got worse. In the past two years, unless necessary, most of them stayed here. Waiting for the return of Eleven in the cave.
Every time Eleven sees Grandpa Gui's old and frail appearance, and hears Grandpa Gui's always calm and indifferent appearance, he feels depressed and uncomfortable in his heart.
All this is because of her. Eleven gritted his teeth secretly, but never showed any signs of sadness.
"Well, after the eleventh day, I will make a lounge chair for Grandpa Gui, and lie on the chair to enjoy the sunset." Eleventh's tone was sweet, and he looked very happy.
Grandpa Gui laughed when he heard this. Grandpa Gui did not ask Eleven if he had found the formation master, nor did he ask Eleven if he had found a new formation master. Eleven also did not tell Grandpa Gui about the outside affairs.
The two men never broached the issue unless there was some progress. After decades of searching, both of them have become accustomed to countless disappointments. After being disappointed too many times, they only feel numb.
At the beginning, they would talk endlessly about formations and formation masters. Later, they would never mention it again. They should search when they are searching, and live a good life when they are not searching.
This is the tacit understanding between the old and the young. Just as Eleven left, she was in the cave she had been waiting for for three years.
There was a young girl in green clothes sitting quietly in a quiet room. In front of her was a huge bronze tripod that was two people tall. The bronze tripod was green in color and painted with various rare birds and sea beasts, as well as the sun, moon and stars. At this time, it was steadily moving. Placed above the ground.
On the ground under the bronze tripod, formation patterns shone brightly. The lines on the bronze tripod glowed with a faint blue light.
The bronze cauldron was as motionless as a mountain, but the lid of the bronze cauldron was banging, and waves of rumbling sounds could be faintly heard from within.
It was as if the bronze cauldron contained strong winds and huge waves that were roaring. The girl in green clothes had a solemn look on her face and stared closely at the bronze tripod. The various magic formulas she held in her hands moved like flowing water through the void.
The row of jade and wooden boxes placed beside him was more than half empty at this time.
