After walking out of the monastery, Wen Min saw Lu Xueqi standing aside, so she walked over and said, "Junior sister, are you going back right now?"

Lu Xueqi shook her head slightly and said: "Now that I'm out, I want to walk around. I feel bored sitting in the house all the time."

Wen Min nodded and said: "That's right, then you should be careful. I'll go back first."

Lu Xueqi nodded slightly and said, "Yes, senior sister, walk slowly."

Wen Min smiled, turned around and walked away, watching her figure gradually disappear into the bamboo forest. Lu Xueqi stood there in silence for a moment, but she didn't know where she was going, so she walked away.

The bamboo forest is deep and green everywhere. Mountain wind blows from high places, and the tips of the bamboo branches sway with the wind, making a rustling sound.

On the slightly moist land, buds break through the ground, and from time to time, you can see the pointed heads of bamboo shoots poking out of the ground, full of vitality.

In the distance, from the dense bamboo branches, the crisp sound of birdsong came, and even the surrounding air was filled with the unique fragrance of bamboo. Lu Xueqi took a deep breath. There was no tacky atmosphere here, it had always been...

They are the favorites of those who practice Taoism, and this is also the reason why those who practice Taoism often stay away from the world.

It's just that the body is far away from the world, but the fate of the world seems to have never left even half a moment.

Just like this, she stepped lightly on the lotus steps and walked leisurely. Unknowingly, Lu Xueqi suddenly realized that she had walked to the back mountain again. She smiled bitterly. Although she had not thought of coming here today, she might have come here on weekdays.

There are so many coming, this pair of feet actually walked on their own

However, she was content with what she had come. Lu Xueqi did not look back and continued to walk slowly towards the mountain. The stone layers went up layer by layer. Not far away, there was the moon-watching platform, a secluded place on Xiaozhu Peak.

It was daytime at this time, and Master Shuiyue was in a bad mood recently. No one came to this remote place, and the surroundings were quiet. Fortunately, Lu Xueqi had always been used to this tranquility, so she walked up on her own. There was no grass here.

A tree, a stone, a rock are all very familiar to her.

Unexpectedly, she just stepped onto the moon-watching platform, but she was startled for a moment. In front of the moon-watching platform, there was a figure standing alone, her robes were blown by the mountain wind. The figure looked very familiar from behind. It was her and Wen Min.

The missing master, Master Shuiyue

Lu Xueqi was astonished, walked up to the sky, bowed to Master Shuiyue, and said: "Master"

Master Shuiyue was shocked, as if he realized someone was coming from behind him. He turned around, looked at Lu Xueqi, nodded and said, "It's Xueqi."

Lu Xueqi looked at Master Shuiyue and saw that her master's face was slightly pale and still sad, but at this moment, most of her face looked lonely.

She was worried in her heart and said: "Master, it's windy here, you have to take care of yourself."

Master Shuiyue smiled and said: "On weekdays, you stand here all day long and nothing happens to you. Although my old bones are not younger than yours, I am not too weak."

Lu Xueqi was taken aback and said quickly: "Master, I don't mean that, I mean..."

Master Shuiyue waved his hand slightly tiredly, with a faint bitter smile on his lips, and said: "I know, you don't need to explain."

Lu Xueqi stood silently beside Master Shuiyue, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Master Shuiyue seemed to have no intention of speaking, and both master and disciple fell silent for a moment.

I don’t know how long it took, but Master Shuiyue looked into the distance and suddenly said: "Do you think the scenery on the moon viewing platform is beautiful?"

Lu Xueqi was startled for a moment, wondering why Master Shuiyue suddenly asked him this question, but she still answered him honestly: "As the saying goes, the scenery is always in dangerous peaks. The dangerous rocks here are abrupt and the cliffs are hanging in the air. Looking from above, the sea of ​​clouds is like waves.

, the company of green mountains is the place with the most beautiful scenery.”

Master Shuiyue nodded slightly, his eyes were slightly blurry, and he said slowly: "Actually, many years ago, when your uncle Suru was still practicing on Xiaozhu Peak, he, like you, loved the scenery here most, and he often loved it.

I sneaked here to play alone."

Lu Xueqi was startled and raised her eyes to look at Master Shuiyue. She saw Master Shuiyue sighing softly and said: "Junior sister Su and I have grown up together since we were young. Calculating, I only joined my mentor one year earlier than her."

Master Zhenyi, when we were young, we ate at the same table and slept in the same bed. We were really like sisters. She was more lively than me on weekdays, but she loved to sneak in here when she was wronged.

I also came to this moon-watching platform and felt sulky all by myself.”

When Master Shuiyue said this, the corner of his mouth moved, as if he remembered some past events of the year, and smiled a little, but before the smile came out, it was replaced by a deep look of confusion and vicissitudes of life on his face.

"But...she has never been here since she got married."

Lu Xueqi listened silently to Master Shuiyue's words and whispered: "Master, weren't you happy when Master Su married Master Tian from Dazhu Peak?"

Master Shuiyue was startled for a moment, then shook his head slightly, sighed, and said: "Although Tian Buyi has a bad temper and a bit of a surly temper, he is a good wife. Your uncle Su married him, and he is hers."

Fortunately, she also has a vision."

Lu Xueqi was really surprised when she heard this. In the past, everyone knew that Master Shuiyue didn't like Tian Buyi, but she didn't expect that she felt this way in her heart. She couldn't help but ask: "What about you?"

I used to do that to Master Tian..." Halfway through her words, she suddenly stopped talking.

Master Shuiyue smiled slightly and said: "Who is still looking at him and making cold remarks to him?"

Lu Xueqi's face turned red and she said, "This disciple doesn't dare to think like that."

Master Shuiyue said calmly: "This is how I treat him on weekdays. It's not something taboo. What should I be scrupulous about? But although Tian Buyi and I don't get along, to be honest, he is still a good person. In our Qingyun

There are not many people in the sect who can compare with him."

Speaking of this, Master Shuiyue seemed to suddenly think of something. He frowned slightly and said, "The eldest disciple under Tian Buyi is called Song Daren?"

Lu Xueqi nodded, but she didn't know why Master Shuiyue suddenly asked about Song Daren, and said: "Exactly, now that Senior Brother Song has taken over the position of leader of the Dazhu Peak lineage, Master, why did you suddenly think of Song Daren?"

Senior brother?"

Master Shuiyue was silent for a while, then said: "Does your senior sister Wenmin have some quarrel with this Song Daren?"

Lu Xueqi was shocked at this moment. She didn't know what to say about Wenmin and Song Daren's mutual affection. Most people knew about it. The sisters on Xiaozhu Peak usually made fun of Wenmin about it, but Tian Tian

Buyi once went to the mountain to ask for marriage for Song Daren, but was rejected by Master Shuiyue, which made Wenmin feel sad in private. She was depressed for several days. Now she was suddenly asked by Master Shuiyue. Lu Xueqi's mind was spinning, but she didn't know what to say directly.

, it’s better to hide something for Senior Sister Wenmin.

What kind of experience Master Shuiyue has, just looking at Lu Xueqi's hesitation, he saw most of it, shook his head, and sighed deeply

Lu Xueqi couldn't help but feel a little anxious. She had an excellent relationship with Wenmin. Although she herself had a difficult relationship, she hoped that the senior sister who had been taking care of her since she was a child could find a good home. At that moment, she still mustered up the courage to say: "Master

,Actually, Sister Wenmin..."

Before he said a few words, Master Shuiyue said calmly: "That's it, that's all. Find a day and marry Wen Min."

Lu Xueqi was stunned for a moment, and could hardly believe her ears. Master Shuiyue glanced at her, smiled, and said: "Why, do you disciples always think that I am an old stubborn, stubborn, and unwilling to accomplish the good deeds of my disciples?"

?"

Lu Xueqi was extremely happy for Wen Min, and she quickly smiled and said: "Master, look at what you said, how dare the disciples think so?

I would like to thank you first on behalf of Senior Sister Wenmin."

Master Shuiyue looked at Lu Xueqi's rare sincere smile. The corners of his mouth moved, but he sighed softly, turned around, stood with his hands behind his hands, and silently looked at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance.

Lu Xueqi was so happy that she saw Master Shuiyue's expression was different, and she said cautiously: "Master, why did you suddenly think of this?"

Master Shuiyue was silent for a moment and asked without answering: "Xueqi, you also followed me to Dazhu Peak. What do you think of the death of your Master Su?"

Lu Xueqi's expression became solemn, she pondered for a moment, and said solemnly: "This disciple thought that Uncle Su and Uncle Tian had a deep love for each other, so they followed them away without any sign of pain."

"Yes." Master Shuiyue sighed softly and was lost in thought. After a while, he said, "I don't want you to be disturbed by love and delay your practice, but what will happen in the end after practicing for a lifetime?"

Lu Xueqi didn't know what Master Shuiyue meant. She didn't dare to speak for a moment and only listened to Master Shuiyue slowly say: "When it comes to immortality, it is still vague and nihilistic. I have practiced hard for a lifetime, but I have spent hundreds of years in vain. Your uncle Su."

I regard hundreds of years of Taoism and life as nothing, but this determination and vision are really much better than mine."

Lu Xueqi suddenly felt sour in her heart and called out: "Master..."

"Practice for a lifetime, practice for a lifetime, cultivate the Tao, but lose the humanity, so what's the trouble?" Master Shuiyue sighed and said lightly, "Actually, what is the Tao and what is meant by attaining the Tao? I have cultivated for a lifetime, and when the time comes

Today, it’s really a bit blurry.”

Lu Xueqi stood aside, not daring to speak. Master Shuiyue stood silently, stunned for half a minute, then suddenly shook his head, as if he didn't want to think about it anymore, turned around and walked down the mountain. Lu Xueqi looked at her back and shouted: "Master, you

Where to go?”

Master Shuiyue paused for a moment and said: "I have made up my mind about Wenmin, so you can go over and talk to her..."

There was a pause in her voice, but she turned around again, with a look of pity on her face. She looked at Lu Xueqi and said, "It's you, Xueqi, have you ever thought about yourself?"

Lu Xueqi was startled and said: "What?" Then she came to realize it, her face turned pale, she slowly showed a helpless smile, and whispered, "Master, my disciple's fate is not good, so I don't dare to think too much."

Master Shuiyue looked at his unparalleled disciple. He saw that her white clothes were fluttering, and she seemed to have come out of the world, but she had a sad look on her face, but she didn't know how much it had accumulated.

Master Shuiyue suddenly felt distressed for no reason and called out: "Xue Qi"

Lu Xueqi raised her head and looked at Master Shuiyue, only to hear Master Shuiyue say calmly: "Xueqi, you have a difficult love life, but you don't want to look back. There is nothing the master can say to you. It's just a master-disciple relationship between you and me, and so am I.

I don't want to see you like this. If things turn around in the future, I will take care of all the rules here at Qingyun Sect. You don't have to worry." Lu Xueqi was shocked and couldn't help shouting: "Master...

"But I didn't know what to say for a moment.

Master Shuiyue smiled at her, then sighed, turned around and left. Not long after, his figure disappeared under the rock steps of the mountain. Only in the mountain breeze, her low whisper could be faintly heard: "Ask the world."

,What is love..."

Lu Xueqi stood there, feeling confused and distressed for a while, but she still couldn't think of any result. Only in that daze, she suddenly thought: not long ago, in that Heyang

In the abandoned village outside the city, Tian Buyi seemed to have said similar words to her.

——

Huqishan, Ghost King Sect

A pretty figure appeared in the corridor at the foot of the mountain where the main hall of the Ghost King Sect is located. Different from all the gray and dull things around it, when this figure moves, it seems to be shining with dazzling light, bringing a sense of dazzling light to the depressing atmosphere here.
