Bai Gu returned home, sat on the bed, took out the bamboo slips, and started reading again.

He squinted his eyes hard and pressed the bamboo slip almost to his eyes, but he still couldn't read the words on it clearly.

Is this character too small? I can’t read it clearly even if I can read it!

Bai Gu threw the small bamboo slip on the bed, fell back, and lay on the bed, staring blankly at the roof.

Bai Gu suddenly felt agitated for no reason. He turned over and faced the wall. Looking at the words carved on the stone wall, Bai Gu felt a little more at ease.

"I'm not hungry, I'm sleeping soundly, what's there to be upset about? It's just that the days are a little bitter, and if you blink your eyes, your life will pass quickly."

This was carved by Mrs. Bai.

Bai Gu was illiterate, so Mrs. Bai read to him. So every time Bai Gu saw this line of words, even if he couldn't recognize the words, he could always think of Mrs. Bai's voice in his mind.

That's enough.

Being able to recall everything about Old Mrs. Bai, Gu Bai would feel inexplicably at ease.

Bai Gu quickly closed his eyes, as if this could block outside interference and make the image of Mrs. Bai in his mind clearer.

Just a drop of crystal flowed down his cheek and licked the corner of Bai Gu's mouth with a satisfied smile.

Salty, sweet.

There is snow and wind outside, and sweet dreams inside. The two pictures are different.

"Brother, are you leaving again?" On a cliff, a man dressed in white clasped his hands behind his back, facing the bright moon in the sky, with a touch of sadness on his face.

The breeze blows, the big sleeves are fluttering, and the jade medal on the waist swings slightly.

The man in green shirt next to him smiled slightly, "What's so strange about this? You come and go, separate and rejoin. You've read a lot of books, so why don't you understand this?"

"But since we are away from each other and we are together, you have only been here for a few days since you came back this time?" The man in white sighed.

"How old are you, why are you still acting like a child?" The man in blue shirt was a little helpless, "It's not like you don't know that my wish, your senior brother, is to study and see the world, and to be content in a corner, which is not my original wish."

"Is that sentence really that important?"

The man in green shirt smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's heavier than Mount Tai or as light as a feather. To me, it's worth it."

The man in white was inexplicably sad.

The man in the green shirt patted the shoulder in the white shirt and said with a smile: "Just practice your sword well, why do you need to care so much about the people around you? It's hard to master the sword if you are so absent-minded."

Bai Yi shook his head, "The old man is gone, and Senior Brother Liu is missing again. Even you have to go out and travel around the world every day. I am the only one at home."

The man in green shirt was startled, and then he felt a little emotional.

The home mentioned by the man in white is actually the ancestral address of their lineage.

Most people only regard the sect as a protective umbrella, temporary residence, and second home, but there are very few who can truly regard it as home.

Moreover, what the man in white said came from his heart, without any trace of falsehood.

The man in green shirt sighed, "I can't help it. Something happened at Thousand Buddha Pass, and people from all over the country were sent to check the situation. If I don't go there, it really can't be justified and I can give people a reason to talk about it."

The man in white nodded, "I understand. I'm still too weak to help you share your burden."

"When you have perfected your swordsmanship, do you still have to worry about this?" The man in green patted the man in white on the shoulder, "Take care of yourself and let's go."

The man in white took a step back, cupped his hands and said, "Senior brother, walk slowly."

The man in green shirt said nothing and disappeared.

The man in white slowly straightened up and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

The bright moon in the sky waxes and wanes, and all living beings gather and disperse.

Brother, I may not be able to wait for that day.

"Xiaolang Hooves, have you beaten enough? Is it over yet?" A figure in a red dress fluttering, with the fragrance of orchids permeating, landed on a boulder, like a grain of gravel on an egg.

Although this person has a male figure, his face is more beautiful than that of a woman. He holds an orchid finger in his right hand and holds a slender embroidery needle.

"Sissy, why did you collapse? If you can't, just give up and don't hold on!" This is a little girl with short ear-length hair and starry eyes. She looks like a tomboy. In her hand is a little girl.

He held the wooden sword at an angle, with an imposing manner.

Hongyi was not angry when he heard this, but just covered his mouth and smiled. He was obviously used to this title. A pair of clear autumn eyes were smiling, and his long-knuckled hand waved to the little girl, "Please don't be angry, sir.

I’m here to serve you.”

Her movements are charming, her tone is frivolous, and her posture is enchanting. She clearly looks like a woman. However, the voice in red is neutral, and the body is taller than an ordinary man. People in red can't tell for a moment whether he is a boy or a girl.

No wonder the little girl called Hongyi sissy.

The little girl spat, "Disgusting! If you want to fight, fight. If you don't fight, give up."

Hongyi smiled and narrowed his eyes, "The rocks here are so rugged that it's hard to even stand. How about changing to a more stable place, such as the Zhu Yuan water couch in my house?"

The little girl was about to pick up the sword, but her stomach made an unsatisfactory sound at this moment. She had to put the wooden sword behind her back and fold her hands in front of her chest. "I'm hungry. Take me to eat. Once we're full, we can

Hit again."

The man in red turned his fingers, put away the embroidery needle, and flew towards the little girl, "Let's go, let's go, couldn't we have just said this earlier? There are a lot of delicious things in my house."

"Stay away from me." The little girl said with some disgust.

"Oh, it's okay. Look at you, you act like a tomboy every day. It will be difficult to find a Taoist partner in the future."

"It's better than you being a sissy!"

"Not always."

"You fart!"

"..."

An old man in bright red clothes came to a dilapidated wooden house, stretched out his hand and knocked.

The wooden door creaked open with only a small gap. A small head poked out from behind the door and asked timidly: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

The old man glanced at the little girl and said in a sharp voice: "Where are your adults?"

"Mom! An old man is looking for you!" the little girl shouted from behind the door.

"Let someone come in. It's so cold outside, why are you so rude?" A woman's voice came, but she was nowhere to be seen.

The little girl quickly opened the door and invited the old man in.

The old man walked into the house, glanced around, and immediately frowned, "Have you lived in this kind of environment for so many years?"

When the woman heard the old man's voice, she couldn't help but be startled. Is this...a eunuch?

Why would a eunuch come to a place like my house?

But she still replied respectfully: "Sir, yes."

Eunuchs are people in the palace. Even a small eunuch on night duty is not someone ordinary people can mess with, let alone poor people like us?

The old man nodded, "Come with us. Don't you want to see your man? Our family will take you to a family reunion."

When the woman heard the news about her man, she couldn't sit still.

Because she hadn't heard from her man in ten years, she thought he was dead.

"Really? He...he is still alive?" The woman's voice was trembling.

The old man was a little helpless, but because of the man's order, he still said patiently: "He is alive and well. I will send our family to pick you up and reunite with your family. We will wait for you outside first."

After saying that, the old man walked out quickly, as if he disliked the environment in the house.
