The things on the ground gradually became smaller. The once bustling Jingshi Hall and the houses full of disciples were now empty.
Even the dining hall where daily meals were eaten was abandoned, and the ringing of the bells from the Patriarch's Hall was no longer heard.
When dusk fell, there were no diligent outer disciples cleaning the place, and no one was lighting the lamps.
Shi Yingxue also sat in Flying Fu Zhuan and watched the night view of Zhongnan Mountain with Xiuxiu at night. At that time, looking from a distance, the lights were bright, like a lantern market in the world. But now looking back again, the entire Zangfeng Valley
There was only a small light in Zhongya, swaying slightly in the desolate night, as if it would be swallowed up by darkness in the next second.
At this time, Shi Yingxue gradually felt confused. It turned out that Zangfeng Valley had changed so much in such a short period of time.
It turned out that this was the end of the world, and Shi Yingxue felt desolate in her heart. Thinking of Baili Jian's warm smile just now, Shi Yingxue's nose became sour, and she almost shed tears.
Those people who used to be there have disappeared one by one, and the once prosperous Zangfeng Valley is now like an octogenarian who is living on his last breath and can already see his death in the future.
Even Fang Wuhui, who praised her for being the number one swordsman in Zangfeng Valley, had gone, and Shi Yingxue did not dare to ask Baili Jian for fear of arousing his sadness.
The small wooden sword in Shi Yingxue's storage ring was still there. She had just started on the path of sword cultivation, but Zangfeng Valley was already gone.
Although Zangfeng Valley is not that big a sect, and she has had a lot of unpleasantness here, it is still the first place where she settled down.
Just like the unknown small village at the beginning, Zangfeng Valley is an inseparable memory for her in her life.
She stepped into the fairy gate here, learned many important things here, and made a rare good friend.
Shi Yingxue's tears rolled out of her eyes, but she knew she couldn't cry. She was the only one left with the master. If she also lost confidence, everything would be gone.
She wiped her tears fiercely and tried her best to calm down her slightly rapid breathing. Looking at the tall but old figure in front of her, she secretly made up her mind. It was the master who had been protecting her in the past, and she would also do it.
Become stronger as soon as possible and protect your master!
Baili Jian didn't look back, but he knew that the little girl behind him was crying.
Shi Yingxue has always been a nostalgic person, and he knows it very well, so now that Zangfeng Valley has become like this, his little disciple must feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Xue'er, do you know what is the first thing to be lost in time?"
Shi Yingxue said hesitantly: "Is it a human?"
"It is a human body, and the sects everywhere in this world watched him build a Zhulou, watched him entertain guests, and watched his tower collapse. You can feel sad about this, but you can't wallow in the pain of the past year after year.
Among them, being a teacher is the best example. And the human heart, human faith and belief are eternal."
There was sadness in Baili Jian's words, but more of a feeling of understanding.
"Disciple understands." Shi Yingxue knew what Baili Jian meant. She nodded and kept this sentence in her heart.
From a distance, I saw a faint fluorescent light on the top of a mountain, moving slightly with the wind, like a fairyland.
what is that?
Baili Jian seemed to have heard the question in Shi Yingxue's heart, and said with a smile: "That is our medicinal field in Zangfeng Valley, Mingzhuzi."
This season happens to be the season when pearls mature. Large pieces of pearls are gathered together. Looking from a distance, they look like a green cloud in the dark surroundings.
"gorgeous......"
Baili Jian smiled and said with nostalgia: "Your uncle Wanyue's favorite thing is the pearl."
Uncle Wanyue?
Shi Yingxue knew that she had three uncles, Ziluan, Jingbai, and Ruobai. Who was this uncle Wanyue?
Baili Jian pressed the magic weapon, and the two of them landed in the field of pearls.
The breeze blew, and the trunks of some pearl flowers could not bear the weight of the pearls, and the pearls on them fell down.
Shi Yingxue randomly picked up a few pearls from the ground, and when she looked at the moon, she saw a faint fluorescence in the pearls, which was extremely beautiful.
"Master..." Shi Yingxue turned around and looked around. Only this piece of bright pearls was still intact, while the other pieces were broken, and the stems and leaves of the pearls were roughly torn off.
When we came down, the ground was covered with dead branches and leaves, just like walking into the Zangfeng Valley where tea is cool.
"This field was taken care of by your uncle Wanyue back then. Without her forbidden talisman, no one else can enter. Nowadays, the sun is declining in Zangfeng Valley, and the pearls are worth a lot of money. Those who left have long been able to
The medicinal materials and pearls that were poached and taken away were all taken away. If it were not prohibited here, this piece of pearls would definitely not be saved."
There was a lot of sadness in Baili Jian's words, but there was no sadness as before, and despite the ups and downs, he felt calmer.
"I see."
Shi Yingxue nodded.
There is chaos and desolation all around. Looking at this place, I just feel that it is rare and emotional.
"Your uncle Wanyue, nicknamed Yueyue, was born as a mortal. She has the twin spiritual roots of water and fire, but she rarely practices seriously. She is always motivated and diligent in her work. When something happened to the disciple who was taking care of this Pearl Flower, she volunteered to take care of her.
Even the master thought she wanted to take some pearls, but she never took one more.
Others don't know, but I know. Yueyue was blind for a while when she was a child. Later, when the master brought her back, he cured her. It was in Zangfeng Valley that she saw the world clearly for the first time. At that time,
I heard that master had a new junior sister, so I made two hairpins with some pearls I had and gave them to your uncle. She thought they looked good, and she fell in love with pearls from then on.
I also asked her, there are thousands of things in the world that can illuminate, why do you like bright pearls alone? Your uncle said, it’s because she has never seen such a beautiful thing, and she feels happy when she looks at it, and wants more.
have a look.
When she took care of the Pearl Flower Field, she worked very hard and often practiced with the Pearl Flowers. When the Pearl Flowers she planted bloomed, they were so bright that they could be seen from a distance, and the pearls they produced were even more brilliant.
The flowers were nice and shiny, and sold at an extremely high price. There were often cash-strapped disciples who wanted to come and steal them, so she set up a ban in the flower field to prevent others from stealing them.
After she died, I have been taking care of this patch of pearls, but I have never grown a pearl as bright as hers in so many years."
Baili Jian's narration was light, and his eyes fell on a pearl flower that had just bloomed but had not withered yet, tender and missing.
As Baili Jian slowly narrated, Shi Yingxue gradually had the appearance of such a calm, gentle, yet innocent girl in front of her eyes.
