Chapter 195: This is a gift from the teacher
Hearing Yuan Feng's words, Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes widened in surprise.
Yuan Feng saw that this kid was just looking at him stupidly and didn't move, he knew what he was thinking in his heart, deliberately bluffed a face, and said, "What? Isn't it rare for me to help? Okay, then I'll just be clean and don't help. β
After speaking, Yuan Feng put on a posture of picking a pick, and he was about to leave with a flick of his sleeves.
Seeing his action, Chu Xingyue and Xiao Ruiyuan were all anxious, and they all stretched out their hands to grab his two arms left and right.
Xiao Ruiyuan hurriedly opened his mouth and said: "The apprentice knows that the master is the most affectionate man in the world, and the apprentice is really lucky to meet a teacher like you." β
Looking at Xiao Ruiyuan, who was smiling like a dog wagging his tail, Yuan Feng turned his head and let out a cold snort.
Chu Xingyue continued to pat herself on the other side, and said smoothly, "That's it, this young master is also very lucky, so you have a good subordinate who is so enthusiastic as you." β
Looking at the two people standing on both sides of his body at the same time, revealing a flattering look, Yuan Feng really couldn't bear to look at it directly.
But he was not disgusted in his heart, and after clearing his throat, he said, "Are you begging me for help?" β
"yes, yes! Please, big please! Chu Xingyue and Xiao Ruiyuan nodded in unison.
"Am I a good person? Warm-hearted people? Yuan Feng continued to ask.
"Yes, yes, yes! You recognize the first in the world, no one dares to recognize the second, Yuan Feng, you are definitely the best person in the world. β
Chu Xingyue felt that her cheeks were really getting thicker and thicker, and she could even say such shameless words without blushing and heartbeat, and Yuan Feng, who was even more shameless, actually accepted all these words.
"Well, for the sake of y'all begging me, I'll do you a favor."
After speaking, Yuan Feng flicked his sleeves and walked in the direction of the Land Temple.
Chu Xingyue and Xiao Ruiyuan watched Yuan Feng's striding meteor movements, and they both stood in place and let out a long breath, and then they both made a movement to wipe their sweat at the same time.
After doing these two actions, Chu Xingyue and Xiao Ruiyuan glanced at each other as if they had a heart, and they both understood each other's evaluation of Yuan Feng in each other's eyes.
Chu Xingyue's evaluation is that he is shameless and a gentleman.
Xiao Ruiyuan's evaluation should be a little affectionate - the master is so naΓ―ve, and the master wants to be coaxed.
Thanks to such a commotion, Chu Xingyue's depressed mood was finally dispersed a lot, looking at Yuan Feng, who was already going away, Chu Xingyue shouted at his back, took Xiao Ruiyuan's hand and quickly chased after him.
β¦β¦
The group of three people got closer and closer to the Land Temple, and Xiao Ruiyuan's face gradually showed a look of grief.
Chu Xingyue looked at Xiao Ruiyuan, who had a snow-white face, and couldn't bear it for a while, so she stretched out her hand and took the initiative to hold him; As if feeling the concern from Chu Xingyue, Xiao Ruiyuan raised his head sensibly and showed a reassuring smile at her.
At night, the Land Temple stands quietly in the northerly direction outside the town, because of the erosion of wind and rain for many years, and the fact that it has not been repaired for many years, so there are dilapidated afterimages everywhere.
Stepping on layers of rotten branches and leaves, and looking at the ruins around it, it's really hard to believe that this place is inhabited.
Chu Xingyue took Xiao Ruiyuan's hand and asked him softly, "Did you really live here with your sister before?" β
Xiao Ruiyuan knew why Chu Xingyue asked him like this, after all, this place is leaking everywhere, the rainy weather is more like a funnel, the rain is pouring outside, and the light rain inside is non-stop, even beggars will dislike this place; However, it was this place that took in their displaced, siblings.
"My sister has inconvenient legs, but she still insisted on bringing me to Dawei, my sister and I are disabled, the other is young, even begging will be bullied by other young and strong beggars, it is already very satisfying for us to be able to live here."
As he spoke, Xiao Ruiyuan looked up at Chu Xingyue and said, "Young Master, don't worry about me, as Master said, no matter how tragic and painful the changes are, as long as I can live, these difficulties in front of me are not bitter for me at all." β
After speaking, Xiao Ruiyuan let go of Chu Xingyue's hand and walked a few steps quickly, slowly pushing the wooden door with a 'crunch' sound, looking at the place where he and his sister used to live in the temple, Xiao Ruiyuan's tears could no longer be stopped, and sadness rolled down his cheeks.
Looking at Xiao Ruiyuan, who was crying silently, Chu Xingyue was also extremely uncomfortable; In any case, he is still just a child, and it is too cruel to let a child go through so much and suffer so much.
Xiao Ruiyuan stood still for a long time, then pointed to the direction of the back door and said to Yuan Feng, "Master, my sister is there." β
Yuan Feng's expression gradually became cold after coming to the Land Temple, and after listening to Xiao Ruiyuan's words, without saying a word, he raised his legs and walked towards the well in the direction of the back door.
Xiao Ruiyuan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Chu Xingyue.
It's not that she doesn't want him to see his sister for the last time, but the corpses that have been soaked in water are almost all terrifying and ugly, first, she doesn't want to scare this child, and second, she also hopes to leave the most beautiful appearance of his sister in Xiao Ruiyuan's heart.
"Rui Yuan, there is a custom in my hometown that is different from yours, do you want to hear it?"
Xiao Ruiyuan thought that Chu Xingyue was going to say something casually to distract his sadness, but he nodded lightly and said, "Young master, please speak." β
Chu Xingyue held his emaciated shoulders, looked at the bright moonlight above his head, and said slowly, "In our place, there is also a saying that pays attention to entering the earth for peace, but there is another one, they will choose to die in another way; They would ask their children and relatives to burn their bodies in a fire after their deaths, then find a jar to put the burned bones in, and wait until a windy day to scatter the ashes in the jar. From then on, it can be regarded as floating between heaven and earth, unrestrained, and going wherever you want. β
Xiao Ruiyuan looked at Chu Xingyue in amazement, obviously not expecting her to say such a thing.
Chu Xingyue stroked his head and continued, "You just said that your sister's legs are inconvenient, and for people with physical disabilities, freedom is definitely what they desire the most; Before her death, the helplessness of life and the reversal of fate made her live tenacious and painful, maybe after death, she wanted to be with the wind and live a more leisurely and comfortable life. Of course, these are my guesses and a small opinion, and the key is still up to you. β
Hearing Chu Xingyue say this, Xiao Ruiyuan was silent.
He remembered that if she could become a paper kite, she would fly to the highest place in the world to take a good look at the home and city where they lived.
Although the young master had never met her sister, she said things quite similar to her sister as if she could read her.
Although the young master's proposal is very bold and unusual, it is even a little unacceptable; But he knew that if his sister was still alive, she would definitely agree with the young master's words.
For him, his sister's legs were pricked off, although his sister never said anything, but he knew that every time in the dead of night, his sister would touch his unconscious legs and cry secretly.
My sister's heart must be very painful, and after losing her home, her parents, and her legs.
If, at the suggestion of the young master, he let his sister leave with the wind, would she be happier?
Xiao Ruiyuan clenched his fists, and finally slowly closed his eyes, two big tears rolled out of his eyes, and his voice trembled slightly, and said, "Young master, let my sister and Feng'er become friends, and let Feng take my sister away." β
Chu Xingyue knew that Xiao Ruiyuan must have made a great determination to make such a decision; This child, if taught carefully, will be extraordinary in the future.
Chu Xingyue held his trembling little body as if she wanted to give Xiao Ruiyuan strength, and said, "Ruiyuan, don't be sad, from now on, Yuan Feng and I will be your relatives." β
After Yuan Feng fished up Xiao Ruxue's body, Rao was already used to seeing life and death, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly.
How could this poor woman, if she hadn't been forced by life and fate, to end her life in such a decisive way at such a young age.
Yuan Feng took off the cloak on his body and wanted to cover Xiao Ruxue's body, but when he inadvertently saw Xiao Ruxue's exposed skin, his pupils subconsciously tightened, and his lips pursed into a cold line.
How so?
Yuan Feng endured the anger in his heart, put the cloak on Xiao Ruxue's body, and walked back quickly, seeing Xiao Ruiyuan, who was supported by Chu Xingyue, approached him with a gloomy face, and then, with anger, grabbed his wrist and pulled it aside.
Chu Xingyue didn't know what Yuan Feng was crazy again, why did he lose his temper at this poor kid again?
I was a little unhappy at the moment, and I just wanted to rush up to stop it, but I was stunned when I looked back at Shang Yuanfeng's sad eyes.
What happened? How did Yuan Feng become like this?
After Xiao Ruiyuan was dragged away by the angry Yuan Feng, he knew that the master must know something, and his dark eyes also showed heavy sadness, even if he was pinched by Yuan Feng's wrist, he didn't dare to snort.
After Chu Xingyue saw Yuan Feng dragging Xiao Ruiyuan away, the two talked for a long time not far away, and finally, Xiao Ruiyuan knelt in front of Yuan Feng, crying.
Chu Xingyue couldn't hold back any longer, for fear that Yuan Feng would convulsive and drive this poor child away, so she hurriedly trotted forward and said, "What happened?" What did you say to him? β
At this time, Yuan Feng changed back to the scene just now when he played the flute in the inn and gathered the tanuki to hurt people, his eyes were as black as ink, his eyes were as cold as ice, and only when he looked at Chu Xingyue, he seemed to have a little popularity, "Young master, please wait here for a while, and your subordinates will go down to do something, and go back." β
"Where are you going?"
Chu Xingyue subconsciously sensed that something was not right, and there was a secret between Yuan Feng and Xiao Ruiyuan that was hiding from her.
And this secret made Xiao Ruiyuan miserable, and it was also difficult for Yuan Feng to speak.
Yuan Feng glanced at Xiao Ruiyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, and his voice was cold, "Although I am not willing to accept you as an apprentice, but you finally opened your mouth and called me Master, in my home, as long as you accept a disciple, Master will give a gift to the apprentice; Tonight, I'll give you a gift. β
After speaking, Yuan Feng said to Chu Xingyue, "Young master, please wait quietly, within the time of two pillars of incense, your subordinates will definitely come back." β
After speaking, Yuan Feng held the jade flute in his hand, and disappeared in front of Chu Xingyue and Xiao Ruiyuan in the blink of an eye.
