Mingwei could hardly remember what his master looked like.
Searching through her memory, she found that her long childhood began with her sitting in a backpack and her master carrying her on his back.
To this day, what she remembers most deeply is still her master's back.
The master carried her all over the country, across mountains and forests, and across the Gobi desert until she could walk on her own.
The master was very strict with her. She had to memorize formulas since she could speak and learn footwork since she could walk. He did not allow her to slack off in the slightest and required her to do better than anyone else.
Mingwei once thought that he was inherently stupid and could never meet his master's requirements.
It wasn't until she was ten years old, when she followed her master to watch the kicking gym in Xuandu, that she realized that she was even better than many of her adult disciples.
But the master was always dissatisfied.
When she was young, she was unforgiving and felt that her master was unfair to her.
Why can't she even get a compliment even though she does better than others?
This was especially true when I had a younger junior brother.
Master is tolerant to his juniors. He will nod as long as he makes progress. Even if he doesn't do well enough, he will teach patiently.
Otherwise, why can't a little bit of the kindness shown to the junior brother be passed on to her?
Even though her strength is obviously much higher than that of her junior brother, the master still wants to pass the command talisman to him.
She refused to accept it and challenged the master.
The obstacles set up by her master were overcome by her one by one.
In the end, the command talisman was handed over to her.
At that time, she wanted to prove herself, to be a more successful fortune teller than her master, and to let him know that his harshness towards her was unreasonable and wrong.
However, she was the one who was wrong in the end.
The master has never disliked her. He was strict with her because he hoped that she would have the ability to protect herself. He was even unwilling to give her the command token because he did not want her to bear too much burden and follow the same path as him.
In the past three hundred years, every appointed master could not escape the fate of an unexpected death.
And the master couldn't escape either.
He died trying to save her.
It was not until the end of her life that Mingwei realized how much her master loved her.
She returned to this era and tried her best to change history in order to make up for this mistake.
She wanted to tell Master that she already understood, understood the love he held in his heart, and understood his good intentions.
…
"Cousin! Are you awake?"
Mingwei let out a breath and sat up holding his head.
"What time is it?"
"It's almost midnight, it's almost dinner time."
Mingwei murmured to himself: "No wonder I'm a little hungry."
Ji Xiaowu, who had been watching for a long time, was angry: "The way you were half-dead just now almost scared me to death. When you wake up, you are always worried about being hungry?"
Mingwei smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, cousin, then...do you have food to eat?"
Ji Xiaowu stared at her for a while and said angrily: "Wait, I can't hold you to death!"
After saying that, he ran away.
Mingwei rubbed his chest to make sure he was fine, then got up and put on his shoes.
This is not a Tang family, the furnishings look like an inn.
Well, who sent her here? They also called Ji Xiaowu over.
Mingwei opened the door and saw Tang Shao coming slowly.
The two happened to meet in front of the window, and the scenery outside told her that the inn was by the lake.
"Miss Mingqi, are you okay?"
Mingwei bowed his head and saluted, and replied: "It's not serious. Did the Second Young Master save me?"
Tang Shao said: "I can't say I saved you. You were able to handle the situation at that time even if we were not around."
Mingwei nodded.
Although she fell into the water, her strength was intact, and Mingxiao suffered the backlash from the destruction of the painting. Even if he came to attack, he could not do anything to her.
However, her problem at that time was that her spirit was greatly impacted, and if no one took care of the aftermath in time, she might go crazy.
Therefore, this favor should still be remembered.
"You were in a state of confusion earlier and were soaked all over. I thought that if I sent you back like this, you might get criticized, so I asked for a room here and asked the maid to invite your cousin. There's nothing wrong with it.
Question?"
"No..." This is the most appropriate way to deal with it.
The two were silent for a while, and finally Tang Shao spoke first: "Miss Ming Qi seemed to have been hit hard. She just fainted and talked nonsense."
Mingwei asked: "Really? What did I say?"
Tang Shao looked down at her, as if trying to find traces on her face: "You are calling, Master."
Mingwei said "oh" and had no intention of saying any more.
At this time, Ji Xiaowu came back.
Behind him was a waiter carrying a food tray, and he was also holding a food box in his hand.
"Why are you up? Go back quickly, you don't even need to comb your hair..."
Ming smiled and entered the house obediently.
After all the dishes were put on the table, Ji Xiaowu closed the door without ceremony in front of Tang Shao.
"Second Young Master, my cousin is so difficult to meet guests, I'm sorry!"
"..." Tang Shao could only reply, "It doesn't matter."
Ji Xiaowu came back and picked up some food for her: "What's wrong with you? You came out to play and you made yourself like this. Do you know that you scared me to death?"
Mingwei was just about to say that she was fine when she heard Ji Xiaowu say: "...there was gossip in the house about you and Master Tang Tenth earlier. If others see you dripping wet and being carried back by Second Master Tang, you
This reputation is not as simple as being unpleasant. I beg you, please cherish it a little, okay? You have to torment yourself so that no one wants you?"
Well, it turned out to be her cousin, and his mind... was a bit abnormal.
Mingwei was so hungry that she buried herself in eating without saying a word.
While Ji Xiaowu was picking up food for her, he was talking like an old mother, as if he was possessed by his mother.
"What happened just now? Why do you seem to be in pain? But I don't think you were seriously injured. At most, your internal strength is a little unstable. Are you having nightmares? What kind of nightmare can bring you so much pain?
It’s really strange to be so scared..."
Ji Xiaowu's chirping voice made Mingwei's thoughts wander.
What nightmare? It is a nightmare in which one's own existence is completely denied.
What she saw in Mingxiao's paintings was not what happened in the world where she grew up, but she had no way of confirming that it really didn't happen.
For example, if she returns to this era decades later, when time slowly passes and she comes back, many things will inevitably change because of her intervention.
Go back to the past in order to change the future.
So, is she so sure that the world she once lived in has not changed?
Is her existence the result of the change?
The Heavenly Movement Formation was set up by Master.
The first one to have the opportunity to go back to the past was naturally Master.
If what Mingxiao said is true, and Master once changed her destiny, then this time, is she changing the future, or is Master trying to bring things right?
Does it really make sense for her to come back here? (To be continued)
