"Hmm~ Well, so that's how it is. [Read the latest chapter]"
Lu Yuan finally managed to persuade Ling'er to get off him, but the girl still stubbornly grabbed his sleeve and wouldn't let go no matter what. His eyes were staring at Lu Yuan unblinkingly, as if the master would disappear from his eyes as soon as he closed his eyes. Lu Dbin didn't want to know other people's private affairs, so he just found an excuse to leave. The girl moved a small stool and sat next to Lu Yuan, talking about the time they spent together in the past few years.
Lu Yuan listened with a smile, occasionally reaching out to pat the girl's hair. Since a year or two ago, Zhao Ling'er began to resist the master's move of treating her like a child. She pouted and shook her head and ran away every time. But now when Master's familiar big hands gently caressed her head, she actually felt like tears filled her eyes.
Ling'er talked about how three people overthrew the Demon Locking Tower and arrived in Nanzhao. Then when they visited the stone statue of Ling'er's mother, they used the "Dream Returning Immortal Technique" to go back to what happened ten years ago...
"You, don't you worry about yourself being kidnapped by the Moon Worship Cult when you were a child?" Lu Yuan's finger lightly flicked Ling'er's forehead, punishing her recklessly. Obviously today was the first time the two of them met, but Lu Yuan acted very naturally, while Ling'er pouted and shook her head, not feeling unfamiliar at all.
"Hmph, Master is partial!" Ling'er pouted and said coquettishly, "Brother Xiaoyao's swordsmanship was something I couldn't understand when I was a child. In fact, he should be extremely powerful! He's just not good at group fighting, but he was more than enough to protect my grandma and me when we were young."
"Well, you can see this and you've made progress." Lu Yuan nodded approvingly.
Knowing the cause and effect, of course he understood... He should have used the pampering version of the teaching method for Zhao Ling'er, which improved his level very quickly, but was lacking in actual combat. As for Li Xiaoyao, he naturally used the hard-working version of teaching. The law is over... through constant strikes and training, the characteristics of Dugu Nine Swords become a habit of the body. However, Li Zi’s version came first and came first. Once he forms his own style in actual combat, he will advance rapidly and inevitably have to catch up from behind.
However, Lu Yuan is still very confident in his future self. He will 100% favor his little female apprentice! The above theory is only valid for a world with an upper limit. If you want to step into the infinite world, the realm is actually far more important than actual combat. Because opportunities to improve your realm are rare but hard to come by, but there are always battles.
"I know you want to know where I went. But before I tell you the answer. Ling'er, can I ask you a question?" Ling'er nodded and looked at him expectantly. Lao Lu was a little embarrassed, but still asked, "You...why do you have to follow me? Although I am not the same person ten years later. But I can also understand what I was thinking at that time. You have already left the army, take over You should pursue your own happiness and path when you come down. Master and so on, after all, they are just passers-by accompanying you in a stage of your life, aren't they?"
"That's not true," Ling'er argued loudly and angrily, "Master and disciple, shouldn't they be together forever!"
Lu Yuan was stunned. Why did I suddenly feel that what she said made sense?
"Master, don't abandon Ling'er. Let Ling'er stay with you forever, okay?" The girl held his hand and knelt down in front of his wheelchair. Rest your head on his knees. "When Ling'er was a child, it was his master who played with him and taught him knowledge. Now that Ling'er has grown up, he has to protect his master from wind and rain, and fan him to relieve his boredom. Even if one day you have gray hair, There are also disciples who will always accompany you, so you will not feel lonely."
Lu Yuan burst into tears, Ling'er, although what you said moved me, Master, but where did you imagine that Master, I was destined to be an orphan? And it’s a bleak evening…
"Ling'er, you know the story of Shattered Void. Master, I have transcended this world and am immortal!" Lu Yuan hit his little disciple's head hard. "I won't be old when you are old! You want to die for me, but you are not strong enough!"
"Really?!" Zhao Ling'er didn't mind having his hair messed up at all, but was very interested in Shattered Void and so on. "I thought it was Master who deceived me! How can I do it? Master, can you teach me?"
Lu Yuan touched her head and sighed. He already understood why he was so determined to leave ten years later... because he had his butt rubbed by himself ten years ago.
"Ling'er, promise Master..." He pondered for a moment. He held Ling'er's hand and asked her to stand in front of him. She reached out and pulled out the "Qingyang" flying sword hanging from her waist, put it into Ling'er's palm, and then wrapped Ling'er's hand and the sword hilt with her own hand. "Live this life well, treat the people around you well...and also search for your own happiness. If one day, you feel that you have nothing to care about in this world, then...use this sword to find the master. !”
Lu Yuan held Ling'er's hand, guided her spiritual power, and swung a sword toward the southwest——
Under the bright sword light, the mountains shattered, the red clouds parted, and a blue sword mark was left in the sky that stretched for thousands of miles...
****
Zhao Ling'er was at a loss.
She didn't expect that a deep obsession had been engraved in her young mind, making her want to go back ten years ago to find out who slashed the sword. It turned out that the master had cast it with his own hand? When fate came here, it seemed that it had drawn a strange circle that she couldn't figure out. If she really wants to figure this out, she may have to wait until the day when her Nuwa bloodline can master the "Dream Returning Immortal Technique".
However, she still firmly remembered the spiritual power of that sword and the sending and receiving of sword energy in her heart!
Zhao Ling'er reluctantly left with doubts, because another familiar stranger appeared at the end of Yuhang Town, Li Xiaoyao ten years later... Ling'er secretly followed him without telling him, and went back to ten years ago, so she didn't want to Meet him.
Xiao Lizi didn't notice that Zhao Ling'er was there, he was a little absent-minded now.
After he handed over the young version of Zhao Ling'er and his grandma to Fairy Lingyue, he walked alone into the familiar yet unfamiliar town of Yuhang ten years ago. He met the young version of Sister Xianglan, and also met the very young Aunt Li. He even exchanged the wooden sword for the water spirit pearl from his young self... Everything was new and strange, which made him I was both happy and a little scared.
Until, he saw a young man smiling at him, sitting under the eaves... just like he would look like forever in the next ten years.
"Brother Lu!"
"Little plum..."
Hearing Lu Yuan's name, Li Xiaoyao's face showed an expression that didn't know whether he should be happy or want to cry. He said with great tangle, "You, you really know who I am! So, it's early for you to teach me the Dugu Nine Swords" Premeditated?"
"Of course," Lu Yuan bared his teeth and looked evil. "Boy, I see that your hall is dark and dark clouds are covering your head. You must be practicing martial arts incorrectly! You may go crazy and have your meridians cut off at any moment. I have a martial arts secret book here - "The Complete Edition of Dugu Nine Swords". I can save your life, I’ll sell it to you for twenty cents!”
"Huh? The last one was obviously only ten cents!"
"It's cheap but not good. That's why you become obsessed with it after practicing."
"Pfft~" The two of them laughed together, laughing hard and beating their chests and feet. After laughing until his whole body was weak, Li Xiaoyao simply moved his buttocks to Lu Yuan's side, "I originally had many things I wanted to ask you, but suddenly I didn't want to ask you anymore. Brother, let me sit next to you for a while."
"Well, was it difficult along the way?"
"fine."
The two people sat silently under the eaves, looking at the clear sky together. After a while, Li Xiaoyao was surprised to find something, "That's wrong! Today... why is it sunny?! I remember that it has been raining in Yuhang since I can remember."
"Raining?" Lu Yuan touched his chin. He raised his right hand, and at some point, a water-blue bead appeared in his hand! Seeing the bead, Li Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then touched his pocket. Sure enough, the water spirit bead in his arms had disappeared. He smiled bitterly. If it was something else, forget it. The Shui Lingzhu was very important for the next Nanzhao rain prayer, so he could only ask for it back.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan said to himself, "It's good if it rains." After saying that, he waved his hand holding the water spirit bead to the sky. I saw a gust of wind blowing by, and large dark clouds poured out from the direction of Shili Slope. In the blink of an eye, raindrops as big as peas fell with crackling sounds.
"Brother Lu, you...how did you do that? Are you an immortal?!" Little Plum was stunned again, but the familiar Brother Lu kept refreshing his knowledge.
"It's time to return to Dream Immortal Technique. You can go back." Lu Yuan did not answer his question. Instead, he patted his hand with a smile and placed the water spirit bead in his hand. "The water monster is transformed by the spiritual power of the water of heaven and earth. It is a little harder to kill, but it is still far from immortal! Of course, it is almost the same for you. Now the rain will continue to draw out its power. Lasts ten years! So when you go back ten years, killing that animal...is no more troublesome than killing a chicken."
"So you know everything, Brother Lu...thank you!"
Li Xiaoyao smiled and bowed, but his body gradually began to become illusive, and the time to return to the Dream Immortal Technique finally arrived. He seemed to have entered a mirror. When he looked at Lu Yuan again, it was as if there was a layer of glass between him. But he could still hear Lu Yuan knocking on the armrest of the wheelchair and reciting a song, which was the poem "Youth Travel" that Lu Yuan had taught him.
"... I will spend my whole heart to be a confidant, and gold will not hesitate to plant peaches and plums. The peaches and plums are planted for several springs, and the flowers fall and become new every time. All the prefectures and counties are just servants, and the princes are all equal friends. A man can live happily for a hundred years, so why bother You will suffer from poverty and disease by working for a book. If a man has been prosperous for a hundred years, why should he be willing to live in the world..."
The sound gradually faded away until it was no longer heard. Li Xiaoyao shed tears unconsciously. He suddenly felt like he would never see Brother Lu again from now on.
****
Outside Yuhang Town, on the Qingfeng Peak, a woman sang:
Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the green grass reaches the sky. The evening breeze carries the faint sound of willow flutes, and the sun sets outside the mountains.
At the end of the sky, in the corner of the earth, acquaintances are half scattered, and the remaining joy is spread out in a pot of turbidity. Don't dream of coldness tonight.
The voice was gentle and graceful, like a fairy, traveling far and wide in the rain.
