Xia Yu was a little surprised and a little excited about the arrival of Taoist Master Ming Yu. Speaking of which, chopping bamboo was a bit boring for him.
Moreover, for such a long time, there was not even a single living thing in this bamboo forest except himself.
When he was cutting firewood in the woodshed, he could still see ants on the ground and birds in the sky. But here, besides the bamboo, he was the only one.
However, Taoist Master Ming Yu waved his hand and smiled, "I have nothing to advise you now. These pills are sent by your master, please keep them."
"Uh-huh..." Xia Yu was stunned for a moment, and was secretly moved in his heart. Emperor Dan was so kind to him! He quickly took the medicine, saluted Taoist Master Ming Yu, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Taoist Master."
Taoist Master Ming Yu nodded, said "You continue to practice", and left.
Xia Yu hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Taoist Priest Mingyu, one year has passed. I wonder when those ranger brothers will leave?"
Taoist priest Ming Yu was stunned for a moment and asked: "Is it possible that after one year, you also want to leave?"
Xia Yu quickly waved his hand, "The Taoist priest is joking, I don't want to leave.
I just want to see some friends off, and I hope the Taoist Master can tell me something."
Taoist Master Ming Yu laughed, "It's okay to tell you, but you have a very tight schedule to practice. The adults value you very much. It's not impossible for you to send your friends off, but you have to complete your homework in advance without any delay. You
Can it be done?"
Xia Yu immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Taoist Master, I will definitely not delay my cultivation."
"Hahaha, I hope you will do what you say!"
......... The last few days of the year have passed day by day, and those rangers who have approached Master Mingyu and expressed their wish to stay are all looking forward to one morning when the servants of the Star Reaching Pavilion will find them and tell them,
You can stay in Star Reaching Pavilion to continue learning swordsmanship.
However, the servant everyone expected never appeared.
Some people seize the last few days and try their best to practice, because the Star-Zhaing Pavilion, as the residence of the Star-Zhaing Old Man, is an area rich in spiritual energy, especially suitable for practicing swordsmanship.
They don't want to miss this rare opportunity.
But some people, because they have been worried about whether they can stay, were restless in the last few days, and even delayed their final homework.
Time is the fairest, no matter how reluctant everyone is to give up, this year's study time has finally come to the last day.
On this day, Star Reaching Pavilion will hold a banquet attended by all rangers. In popular terms, it is a "party dinner".
At noon, the martial arts arena had turned into an open-air restaurant, and the fifty rangers were divided into five tables, each with ten people.
There is wine and meat on the table, and all kinds of dishes are delicious and delicious. The usual "buffet" is already very rich, but this "party meal" is even better.
The aroma of wine and meat filled the entire martial arts arena, but most people's thoughts were not on the food and wine at all.
After the banquet is over, it’s time for everyone to go back to their homes! Once you walk out of the gate of Zhaixing Pavilion, it means that you will never have the opportunity to learn the supreme swordsmanship of the old man Zhaixing in this life.
This banquet is the last chance. Will a servant come with the instructions of Old Man Reaching for the Stars and leave him behind?
Most people have this expectation in their hearts.
After the servants had served the food and wine, they all stepped aside and stood with their hands tied.
The rangers all looked expectantly, obviously, the old man reaching for the stars was likely to come.
As the master of Zhaixing Pavilion, he should also say a few words about this "party dinner".
Suddenly, a slight cough came from far and near.
Everyone's hearts tightened, Old Man Reaching for the Stars is here! "Everyone!"
People who have not seen the old man reaching for the stars have heard his voice.
The voice of the old man reaching for the stars was a bit ethereal, coming from all directions, making it impossible to tell where he was.
"Greetings to Senior Star Reacher!"
All the rangers saluted one after another, facing the direction where they thought the old man reaching the stars was, but most of them were facing the gate of the martial arts arena.
"You don't need to be polite.
Today, you have completed your one-year studies. I am very happy to see that each of you has achieved your own gains in the way of swordsmanship..." The rangers listened and secretly looked around for Old Man Reaching for the Stars.
However, as far as the eye could see, the old man reaching for the stars could not be seen at all, only the misty voice could be heard coming from all directions.
Until the old man reaching for the stars finished speaking, he still did not show up.
Could it be that the old man reaching for the stars doesn’t show up anymore?
Everyone couldn't help but feel secretly depressed.
"Senior Star Reacher!"
Shi Huadong's voice suddenly sounded, and he said loudly, "Junior Shi Huadong, I am willing to stay in Zhaixing Pavilion and work as a cow and horse, just so that I can follow my senior in pursuit of the supreme swordsmanship!"
As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and saluted.
Shi Huadong's behavior was the beginning, and most of the rangers knelt down, shouting words such as "I am willing to stay in the Star Reaching Pavilion" and "I am willing to serve Senior Star Reaching Pavilion".
More than thirty of the fifty people knelt down, and the rest were too embarrassed to stand, so they could only follow and salute.
Ling Erjie and Zhou Zitong saluted while feeling secretly happy. Compared with others, they were the ones who had the opportunity to step into the gate of Star Reaching Pavilion again! The two of them couldn't help but look at Tie Butterfly with gratitude at the same time, and said almost at the same time:
"Thank you, Sister Tie Butterfly, for your guidance."
Tie Butterfly nodded slightly and said: "Friends, I'm just giving you ideas, don't worry so much.
If you two really complete Master Mingyu's test, please remember to take care of Yu Wenxia."
Ling Erjie and Zhou Zitong both nodded and whispered: "This is natural, we must try our best to help Brother Yuwen!"
While the three of them were muttering, several servants came up to them and said loudly: "Everyone, please get up. Your Excellency has already left in order to make everyone feel less restrained! Your Excellency left you a message.
However, we need all of you to stand up before we can speak."
The rangers who didn't expect to stay stood up immediately after hearing this, and others also stood up one after another.
When all fifty people stood up, the servant said: "My lord, the way of swordsmanship lies in the heart, in enlightenment, and in all things in the world. There are opportunities for the supreme swordsmanship everywhere in the world. There is no need to keep an eye on the Star Reaching Pavilion.
This is a small area, you have worked hard for a year, today you should have a good drink!"
After saying that, several servants turned around and left the martial arts arena, leaving only fifty rangers with different expressions.
The dull atmosphere lasted for a cup of tea. Pu Feizhang suddenly picked up the wine glass and said loudly: "Senior Zhaixing is right, drink deeply now! You will not return until you are drunk! Sister Iron Butterfly, Brother Ling, Brother Zhou, come,
cheers!"
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
With these people taking the lead, the atmosphere at the banquet slowly became lively.
Some are laughing, some are crying, some are singing loudly, some are happy and some are sad...
