Taiping Inn

Li Xuandu led Ning Yi, Shi Wuyue and Yechi, and the four of them set off on the way home. Before leaving, Dan Taiyun took the initiative to meet Li Xuandu and returned the "grandmaster" to him, which was considered as Li Xuandu helping her win over Yili Khan's reward.

According to the original plan, Ning Yi and Shi Wuyue wanted to return the same way, but the situation has changed now. To the west is the army of Badu Khan. Shi Wuyue just proposed to congratulate the boss, so the group simply went directly to Liaodong.

If you go back before the Lantern Festival, Li Xuan can still meet Zhang Haishi, because Zhang Haishi, as the male elder, will go to the woman's home to hire him.

Li Xuan was very busy. After getting engaged with Qin Su, he would return to Taiping Sect. After all, he was still the acting leader of Taiping Sect, and it would be unreasonable to rely solely on Mrs. Lu to take charge of Taiping Sect for him.

All four of them are great masters of the Heavenly Realm and can travel thousands of miles a day, but Shi Wuyue doesn't want to walk too fast. One is that she is indeed inconvenient to move, and the other is that the grassland scenery is different from the Central Plains. It is rare to come to the previous trip, so you might as well go. Have to be slower.

At this time, the four of them set a fire in a dry river valley and roasted a whole sheep on it.

Shi Wuyue took the initiative to do it, first hollowing out the internal organs, then cut several small holes, and applied seasonings to taste. Fortunately, Li Xuandu has no shortage of all kinds of things on his body. These were all prepared when he was walking alone in the world. In addition to seasonings, he even took out a stove, a teapot, and a box of tea leaves. . Speaking of which, this is still the old thing Qian Yulong gave him back then, but Qian Yulong is no longer alive.

After Shi Wuyue dealt with the naked sheep, she took the snow water and started to cook tea with clean hands. The movements were smooth and flowing, which was also pleasing to the eye.

Ning Yi was surprised to see, "Miss Shi is also proficient in cooking and tea ceremony."

He still couldn't call him "Stone", so he had to call him "Stone Girl".

After Shi Wuyue finished everything, he clapped his hands, and a little calmness appeared on his face. He said, "It's not a great skill, but I learned it in my spare time. I thought that in the future... it's all old past events. , it’s better not to mention it. I almost forgot these things at first, but I happened to remember them today.”

Speaking of this, she looked at Li Xuandu and said, "Thank you for the shopkeeper's 'Taiping Qingling Sutra', which reminded me of many things I forgot."

Now Li Xuandu has cultivated the "Taiping Qingling Sutra" to great success, and is only one step away from perfection. His insights are naturally not comparable to those before, so he has compiled a new set of martial arts and given them to Shi Wuyue. After practicing for the month, the effect was significant, but the years of hardship of the Jade Prison caused considerable damage to her psychology. It will take time to fully recover.

Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "You don't have to say two things to you. To be honest, Senior Shi is so polite, I'm really not used to it."

Shi Wuyue smiled, "Actually, I was timid, afraid of trouble, and cowardly. Yanyan often bullies me. It can't be considered bullying, it's just a joke between friends, she always wants to say it. Forget it, I have no idea, just her little follower and voice-absorbinger. But people always change. Yanyan has changed a lot since her sister died, and I don’t know where the courage came from, so I dared to break up with my senior sister. , dare to betray the sect. After all these things started, I could no longer stop them. Next, I joined the female sect, recognized Mrs. Leng as my senior sister, and later left Mrs. Leng and relied on The man was rampant and got the title of "Blood Guanyin". Looking back now..."

Speaking of this, Shi Wuyue showed a look of remembrance on her face, "When I look back now, it's like a big dream, hazy and unreal."

Li Xuan has never felt this way. His past is extremely real, which makes him never forget for a moment. It is precisely because of the past experience that Li Xuandu is today.

However, Ning Yi was deeply touched, "In a real dream in fifteen years, I have had this kind of experience. When I look back, I still feel a lot of emotion, just like a drunken moment, and only absurdity is left after sobering up."

Li Xuan smiled and eased the atmosphere, "So one of you is 'Ru Mengling' and the other is 'Drunk Taiping'."

Ning Yi and Shi Wuyue looked at each other and smiled.

After a moment of silence, Shi Wuyue poured out the water for washing tea and started cooking tea.

Yechi asked, "Emister, why do they call you a shopkeeper? What does the shopkeeper mean?"

If anyone who often deals with the Central Plains caravan knows what the meaning of "shopkeeper" means, but unfortunately he is not among them. He follows Lao Khan for many years and is not familiar with people's livelihood.

Li Xuandu explained: "It's the person in charge."

Yet nodded, "What the leader means."

Li Xuan didn't want to say it so explicitly, because he didn't want the relationship between the six people to become too hierarchical, but his slow nature made it difficult for him to understand what the implicitness of the Central Plains people mean.

Li Xuan sighed and said, "That's right."

Yechi asked, "Can I join?"

Li Xuan looked at him, "It's a pity that there is no place for you."

Speaking of this, Li Xuan subconsciously glanced at Shi Wuyue. If it were Shi Wuyue in the past, he would definitely jump out at this time and give his "handsman" position to the newcomer "generously", and then pretend. He said he was just a deputy shopkeeper in a desperate situation. But Shi Wuyue didn't say that today, she just lowered her head and cooked tea quietly, and didn't care about such things.

This is the Shi Wuyue that used to be. Perhaps it was this Shi Wuyue that moved Song Zheng. Before coming to the grassland, Shi Wuyue sometimes gritted her teeth and called Song Zheng directly, wishing she could eat her flesh raw, and sometimes she called Song Lang affectionately, as if she was still in the past. But now she doesn't want to mention him anymore, just called him "that person". She no longer cares about how Song Zheng ended up.

To put it in detail, the last time she met Song Zheng was more than ten years ago.

This kind of Shi Wuyue made Li Xuan feel a little unfamiliar, and he was more used to the unrestrained Shi Wuyue. At this moment, he even regretted it a little, questioning whether he should teach Shi Wuyue's skills. Li Xuan even remembered his own inner demon. Perhaps the crazy Shi Wuyue was like a inner demon, another Shi Wuyue. But he destroyed her with his own hands?

However, Li Xuan quickly gave up this idea. His inner demon was caused by practicing the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin". It was not the same as Shi Wuyue. Just like a person's temperament will change drastically after experiencing a blow. Children will also grow up. Ning Yi, who used to be a murderous devil, is completely different from Ning Yi now.

At this moment, Shi Wuyue suddenly looked at Li Xuandu, and the two of them had their eyes intersected, and then Shi Wuyue blinked at him, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

Li Xuandu was stunned at first, then he understood. He let out a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh at his random thoughts.

Shi Wuyue is still the same Shi Wuyue. She was her in the past, but she is still her now.

The tea was cooked, Shi Wuyue poured a cup for everyone, seven minutes full, but not including herself, she started to pack up the roasted lamb again.

Li Xuandu held a cup of tea and looked at Ning Yi from the corner of his eyes. At this moment, Ning Yi's eyes just fell on Shi Wuyue's side face. Under the reflection of the fire, Shi Wuyue's face showed a rare tranquility on weekdays.

Li Xuan felt that the scene in front of him was very warm. The warmth did not come from the bonfire, but from family, friends, and partners. He enjoyed this feeling. Sometimes, the concept of the people and the world is too broad, and it cannot be seen or touched, but family and friends can truly feel the existence. They are like anchors, making Li Xuandu The drifting ship was fixed in the harbor for a moment of peace and rest.

Ning Yi's eyes did not stay on Shi Wuyue for too long. Shi Wuyue reminded him of many old people and old things. He remembered that unforgettable relationship, but the two people in the story became strangers. He recalled It's like watching someone else's story.

Li Xuandu suddenly said, "When I was in Qingweizong, I had a chat with a mediocre uncle who had been mediocre all his life. The thing he had been thinking about throughout his life was to take revenge, because his wife, children, and their elders were harmed by enemies. He said that After many years, the faces of the murdered family have been almost forgotten, but the feeling of hatred has become stronger and stronger. At this time, even if there are two choices in front of him, one is to resurrect his family and the other is to take revenge, he will not hesitate. Choose to take revenge.”

Ning Yi turned her head and looked at Li Xuandu.

Li Xuandu patted his shoulder, "Gei minister, don't be blinded by the word 'love', whether it is love or hatred."

Ning Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.

Li Xuandu sighed long, "The dead are gone, and the living are like this."
