The two masters and apprentices were in the room, one squatting and the other standing, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
At this time, Yang Shijiu and Xiaozhu walked in carrying steaming dumplings.
Yang Jiu said: "Senior brother, it's time to eat!"
Such a familiar scene made Ye Xiaochuan instantly feel like he had returned to many years ago.
He closed the box and stuffed the wooden box under the bed.
The things inside are all beautiful memories from his youth.
However, he didn't take anything with him.
From now on, he will become another person.
So he left all his previous things and memories in Cangyun.
It was like making a decision with my past self.
The dumplings were placed on the table, Yang Jiu helped Zui Lao sit down, and then called Ye Xiaochuan to come and eat.
At this moment, there are only four masters and apprentices left in this room.
The drunk Taoist picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Ye Xiaochuan, saying hoarsely: "Xiaochuan, you are hungry too, eat quickly."
Ye Xiaochuan glanced at his mentor who was already very old, hummed, picked up a dumpling, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
Familiar recipe, familiar taste.
Ye Xiaochuan has been thinking about the dumplings made in Xiaozhu Bao for many years. No matter how good his cooking skills are, he can't make the dumplings made in Xiao Bamboo Bao.
Ye Xiaochuan couldn't figure it out before, but later he understood it.
This is the taste of home.
Soon, Ye Xiaochuan ate a whole plate of dumplings.
Yang Jiu looked at Ye Xiaochuan eating dumplings with a smile on his face, but Xiao Zhu had already covered his face and cried.
Xiaozhu sobbed and said, "Senior brother, please eat slowly, there are still many in the kitchen."
Ye Xiaochuan smiled at Xiaozhu and said, "Then you go and cook some more. After this time, I don't know if I can still eat the dumplings you made."
Xiaozhu cried and nodded, turned around and went out.
Yang Jiu wanted to stay in the room to talk to Ye Xiaochuan, but was dismissed by the drunk Taoist, who asked her to go to the kitchen to help Xiao Zhu.
Yang Jiujiu was also a smart man. He knew that his master and his junior brother had something to say, so he reluctantly left.
Anyone can betray Ye Xiaochuan, only Yang Jiu and Xiao Zhu have no reason to betray him.
Back then, Ye Xiaochuan met Yang Jiujiu for the first time on the banks of the Yangtze River. No matter what his reasons were at that time, it was he who sent Yang Jiujiu to Cangyun and became the disciple of Zui Lao in a handwritten letter.
Without Ye Xiaochuan's recommendation, Yang Jiu would probably be helping his younger brother and running the family business now, and would not have become the world-famous Qingfeng Heroine.
The same goes for Xiaozhu.
At that time, Xiaozhu was just an ordinary servant disciple from the outer sect. After Yang Jiu became a disciple of Zui Taoist, the Elder's House gave Zui Lao a larger courtyard and assigned three female servant disciples.
Two of the handyman female disciples were accepted as disciples by other elders after they reached the realm of Yukong and left the courtyard.
However, Xiaozhu did not leave, and kept silently serving Zui Lao.
Zui Taoist originally did not intend to accept Xiaozhu as his disciple. It was Xiaochuan who persuaded Zui Taoist to accept Xiaozhu as his disciple ten years ago, thinking that he and his junior sister would not be with his master all year round.
In the same line of inheritance, there are two most important people.
One of them is the founding disciple.
The second is the young disciple who entered the house.
Although Xiaozhu's qualifications are not as extraordinary as Yang Jiu's, and her cultivation and appearance are not outstanding, but as Zui Taoist's disciple, her status in Cangyun Sect is very high.
A few months ago, the two saints of Mount Tai passed away. Xiaozhu went to Mount Tai to express condolences to the two saints on behalf of Zui Taoist.
It can be said that Xiaozhu’s achievements today are all due to Ye Xiaochuan’s recommendation.
Anyone in the world could harm Ye Xiaochuan, but these two women would not. They were sincerely good to Ye Xiaochuan.
The two girls were busy in the kitchen, and only Zuidao Ren and Ye Xiaochuan, the former master and apprentice, were left in the room.
I haven’t seen you for many years and I don’t know what to say.
The drunk Taoist just kept asking Ye Xiaochuan to eat more.
Both plates of dumplings were eaten by Ye Xiaochuan.
Ye Xiaochuan stood up, straightened his clothes, and knelt in front of the drunk Taoist.
He said: "Master, this disciple is unfilial. Not only has he not fulfilled his filial piety under Master's knees over the years, but he has also made Master worry about his disciple."
The drunk Taoist couldn't stand it any longer, and burst into tears as he said, "Silly boy, what are you talking about? As long as you can live well, it is the greatest joy for me as a teacher.
You are now the leader of Gui Xuan Sect, with one hundred thousand disciples under your command. Get up quickly, let others see you, it will have a bad influence on you."
The drunk Taoist helped Ye Xiaochuan up. The master and the disciple could no longer hide their concern and hugged each other and cried.
After a long time, the master and apprentice separated.
In Ye Xiaochuan's heart, Zui Lao is his father.
Even though he has been away from Cangyun for ten years, no one can replace Zui Lao's place in his heart.
Ye Xiaochuan said: "Master, you should drink less wine in the future. It has only been ten years. You are much older, your hair is white and thin."
The drunk Taoist smiled bitterly and said: "Xiaochuan, my master is over 400 years old, how can I not grow old?
On the other hand, you are still so young, but your face is full of vicissitudes of life, and even your hair has turned white. Hey, I really don’t dare to think about what you have experienced in these years."
Ye Xiaochuan shook his head and said: "I have lived a good life these years and have not suffered much."
So, Ye Xiaochuan simply told his master what had happened to him over the years.
Zui Taoist is his master, and Ye Xiaochuan has not concealed it. There are many things that other sects have never heard about. This is the first time that Ye Xiaochuan has mentioned it to others. Even he has been in retreat alone in Wanhu Ancient Cave for ten years.
Been saying it for years.
The drunk Taoist listened quietly.
After Ye Xiaochuan finished speaking, the drunk Taoist said: "Did you and Qin Guichen really have a son?
If you have a chance, bring it over and show it to your teacher."
Ye Xiaochuan shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Master, this matter is a lie I told the outside world. I just don't want to get entangled with some fairies in the past. My girlfriend and I did have a relationship, but we did not get married, let alone cross the thunder pond, Changfeng
He is my disciple, not my son."
The drunk Taoist didn't seem too surprised.
He just sighed and said: "If you and Qin Guichen are in love, you should get married as soon as possible and have children. This is also your mother's greatest wish during her lifetime.
As for Senior Nephew Qiyou... let's forget it. Although your engagement has not been terminated, you are now the leader of Gui Xuan Sect. I'm afraid there will be no possibility for you two in this life.
The curse of seven generations of enemies has finally come true."
Ye Xiaochuan suddenly felt a little painful in his heart.
Yes, the distance between him and Yun Qiyou has become farther and farther. Even if Yun Qiyou now recovers his previous memories and thinks of the tick-tock-tick times the two of them spent together, there is no possibility for the two of them.
It’s not because of their identities, but because Ye Xiaochuan decided to jump out of the chess game and become the chess player.
Every time he thought of this, Ye Xiaochuan's heart felt as painful as a needle pricking him on fire.
