Wangxian Sect.
Located on the top of the peaks, this place seems like two different worlds compared to the folk.
The dull bell was rung, and the echoing sound spread throughout the sect.
On one of the fairy peaks.
Spiritual mist surrounds, rainbow bridges rise and cranes fly.
An old man with gray hair and white beard, put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky.
Although Zhuomu is plain, it is full of an ancient and vicissitudes of life.
I don't know how old he is, but just looking at him like this gives me an unfathomable feeling.
"Master, you have been standing here for a long time. What are you looking at?"
Lu Wanqiu, dressed in a lotus-green dress, walked over slowly, bowed gracefully, and asked curiously.
"Look at the stars."
The vicissitudes of life old man touched his beard and smiled slightly.
Lu Wanqiu was confused and confused: "Stars? Is there anything special about today's stars?"
"Look at the middle one among the stars. How is it different from the others?" The vicissitudes of the old man pointed at the sky and said with a faint smile.
Lu Wanqiu stared at the gray sky. The star in the middle was actually dimmer than the others.
"You see, why do the stars revolve around such a dim star?"
Lu Wanqiu frowned.
The vicissitudes of life old man explained: "This is the Emperor's Star, and all the stars in the Big Dipper revolve around it."
"Now that the Emperor Star has fallen, it will naturally become dim."
"The Emperor Star fell?"
Lu Wanqiu muttered, and was about to ask about the specific matter, but the master in front of her had already disappeared.
There was only a vague echo.
"Call your brothers and sisters to come out of seclusion. The world will be in chaos, and demons are hiding in danger. Take precautions."
...
evening.
Today, it was rare that the Huaizi pawnshop was not closed yet. Zhao Huai moved a bench, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and sat at the door of the pawnshop for a long time.
Thinking while knocking.
Madam hasn't come back so late. She got lost in the vegetable market?
Could it be an accident? But think about it carefully.
No, he didn't believe there was anyone within hundreds of miles who could be her opponent.
"Fool!"
The Eighth Brother flapped his wings and flew in front of Zhao Huai.
"Hey, you've been beaten again, haven't you? I'll buy you a cage tomorrow and let you be a caged bird!"
Zhao Huai pointed at Myna and cursed, "This stupid bird is lazy and eats all day long. He doesn't go out to hunt for treasures. He just stays at home and doesn't work. He eats too much, so he has long been dissatisfied."
Who works for whom?
It’s hard to tell who is the owner and who is the pet.
Therefore, you must not be spoiled when raising a pet. If you raise a pet in a cunning manner, the pet will become its master.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, I have delivered your things."
A shout came from outside the door, and a waiter carried a bag of things and threw it to Zhao Huai.
Zhao Huai took it and looked at it, and said with a satisfied smile: "Thank you."
"Hey, you're welcome. Just give me a little more money next time you sell something. Let's go!"
"good."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Huai chuckled lightly and watched the other party leave.
"Did they really make it? These socks have good elasticity." He opened the cloth package, and inside were black stockings rolled up one by one.
Although the materials are different, the touch and appearance are very similar.
"Not bad, not bad, I'll be happy tonight." Zhao Huai couldn't help but smile.
My mind has already begun to make up my mind.
quickly.
At this time, a slender figure finally appeared in the dusk.
"Madam is back."
Zhao Huai finally saw Yu Qinghan's person, so he immediately stood up to greet him and straightened his clothes.
"Nothing happened today."
He took the vegetable basket, raised his eyes and stared at Yu Qinghan, and realized something was wrong, but the other party did not reply.
He paused and asked:
"What, is something wrong?"
Yu Qinghan shook his head gently, his mood was surprisingly calm. Normally, the lady would laugh, but she was much quieter in front of him.
When I walked in, I stopped being funny and didn't say what strange things I saw today. I just sat down on the chair and stared blankly.
Zhao Huai's frown deepened when he saw it, and he was about to speak.
"There is indeed something."
Yu Qinghan spoke, but his tone was very calm, almost unreasonable.
"I may have to go back to my parents' home for a while. It shouldn't be too long. I will be back soon."
Yu Qinghan stood up, looked at the goldfish in front of the cabinet, and touched the myna on the table, his expression unchanged.
This look is surprisingly weird, as if before leaving, he wants to carefully look at everything he usually uses, touches, and stays with.
And the tone is completely different from usual.
"What happened at home?"
Normally, Zhao Huai would never ask this question, because he would support whatever she did, but it was different today. Madam was acting very abnormally.
"There is a conflict at home again. I will go home and deal with it properly."
Yu Qinghan seemed to have noticed something, and showed a comforting smile.
But this smile seemed a bit forced to Zhao Huai.
He is not a fool. Doesn't he have the ability to observe words and emotions?
"It's a big thing, can you handle it? Do you want my help?"
Zhao Huai said warmly.
Yu Qinghan shook his head, lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said softly: "No, I can handle it. It's a small matter. Let's not talk about it. I'll go pack it up first and prepare to leave tomorrow."
After saying that, she walked straight into the house.
Zhao Huai didn't say a word, just stared at Yu Qinghan to clean up, but the other party was very clear, he didn't dare to look at him, obviously he was hiding something from him.
Finally, he broke the silence and added: "You lied to me, you have no intention of coming back."
Yu Qinghan stopped moving and his hands shook slightly, but only for a moment before he started to clean up again.
Zhao Huai laughed at himself and said: "What's the big deal? Is there anything that can't be said? Is it possible that your previous promises were all lies to me?"
He always felt that the Yu Qinghan in front of him was a little strange, as if he was another person.
Yu Qinghan put away the package, feeling aggrieved, but thinking that she must not let her husband step into the overall situation of the world. She felt that this would put him in eternal danger.
She said in a firm voice: "Yes, I am lying to you. I was born as a general, and I should restore the great cause, not live in peace."
"It was all my fault before. I was too pretentious and didn't think it through. Now I have figured it out. Are you satisfied?"
After saying these harsh words, Yu Qinghan stood up and left, walking out of the pawn shop door.
Zhao Huai stood there silently, without stopping her, watching her walk out of the street and disappear into the night.
This was their first quarrel.
...
The gate of Jinzhou City.
Pei Xiangyun watched Yu Qinghan jump onto the Fiery Pegasus and said in a worried tone:
"Sister, if you say this, will it really not hurt your brother-in-law's heart?"
Yu Qinghan looked calm and said: "I am doing it for his own good. In the great war, everyone is in danger. If you are not careful, you will be in the abyss."
Pei Xiangyun sighed: "Brother-in-law, it's not for your own good."
Father, like son.
In her opinion, her sister and brother-in-law care about each other too much and love each other too much.
Sister Qinghan didn't want her brother-in-law to get involved in the chaos, so she chose to face it alone to protect his safety.
The brother-in-law also respected Sister Qinghan's choice very much and did not stop her. He wanted to help but was rejected by her sister.
Both want to do everything for each other and achieve each other's success.
"If you stay in Jinzhou, your brother-in-law can protect you."
There was a "neighing" sound, and the fire galloped away, and soon no one could be seen.
Riding on the horse, the night is getting darker.
Yu Qinghan finally couldn't hold back the grievance he felt when he parted with Zhao Huai, his eyes suddenly turned red, and his tears fell uncontrollably.
"Husband, I'm sorry..."
Why doesn't she want to stay?
She loves this carefree place more than the great cause of her family and country, and the sea of blood and corpses!
But there are some things that you have no choice about, just like when she was practicing martial arts at the age of eight and joining the army from her sect at the age of thirteen.
The older people grow up, the more they become what they hated most when they were children, because people have too many fetters in this world, and it is impossible to be alone.
Just like now, she sees that the country she built with her own hands is about to be destroyed, and she can't sit back and do nothing.
