After listening to Master's narration, Lu Dongqing's face turned red: "Why don't I remember such a thing at all?"

Lu Zhengqiu looked at him with a smile: "It's okay if you don't remember, you're still a child, even if a child behaves badly, an adult will never blame him."

Lu Dongqing immediately heard the teasing meaning in Master's words, hurriedly looked away, and said in a low voice: "Master should forget about such a shameful thing."

"That can't be done," Lu Zhengqiu raised his eyebrows, "You are my first apprentice, the beginning of everything is always significant, how can you just forget it."

Lu Dongqing first curled her lips to express her complaints, then suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Before you met me, you must have been living alone, right?"

"Yes."

At this point, Lu Dongqing's eyes changed, and she no longer meant to be joking.

Lu Zhengqiu also felt a little guilty, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

Before he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to ask Fang Fang: "Master, you have never told me about your past, where are your parents, and who is your master? I will tell you everything about it." Do not know at all."

Lu Zhengqiu was silent for a moment, and replied: "Who are my parents, I don't even know. My master is just an unknown person in the world, and now I don't know where he is."

Lu Dongqing was startled for a moment, then asked again: "But Master, your martial arts are so superb, how could your mentor be someone who is unknown?"

Lu Zhengqiu chuckled lightly: "It's not considered superb, it's just that you don't know much about it."

Lu Dongqing shook her head and said, "I don't believe it, if it's not superb, why can't I even touch a single finger?"

Lu Zhengqiu laughed again: "Use yourself as a benchmark, you are not going to be a teacher."

Lu Dongqing didn't answer. After a while, she frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "If Master really doesn't want to mention it, I won't ask."

Lu Zhengqiu was stunned, and looked at him with narrowed eyes.

Not only was he intelligent, but he was also naturally compassionate, knowing the weight of the past because he had experienced the deepest pain.I would rather torture myself than let those close to me suffer.

Lu Zhengqiu saw it in his eyes, how could he not understand.

Outside the window, the night is gradually falling, the lamps and candles in the inn are old goods, the fire is dim, and the room seems to be covered in a layer of tulle.

Two people who are close at hand seem to be separated by a layer of tulle, and the distance between them is getting farther and farther.

Lu Dongqing's heart trembled slightly, her eyes drifted to her luggage involuntarily, as if she suddenly remembered something, she said, "Master, I have something good for you."

He rummaged through the luggage for a while, found a paper bag, took out a small piece the size of a fingernail, and handed it to Master.

Lu Zhengqiu was surprised, his eyes widened, and he looked at the small crystal in his palm in disbelief.

It's a peach blossom candy.

"Where did this come from?" he asked.

"I bought it at the market when I passed by Pingjiang yesterday." Lu Dongqing replied.

He tried to recall: "We only stayed in Pingjiang for a short while."

"There's always time for a bag of candy."

"I haven't seen sweets like this at a fair for many years."

"The market in Pingjiang is so big, you can always find it."

Lu Zhengqiu clarified the doubt in his heart, and then he turned his eyes away from the apprentice, and turned to look at the candy in his palm.

Five translucent crystals, with a small petal wrapped in the middle, became hazy in the envelope of candlelight, the outline flickered, not very clear, and the bubbles and markings inside were also invisible. Crystal clear and seamless.

A picture involuntarily floated up in his mind, he imagined holly strewn all over the streets and alleys, found a peddler selling peach blossom candy in the corner of the market, huddled together with a group of greedy children, stretched his arms, handed Putting up copper coins, carefully putting the hard-earned candies into paper bags, with a smile on the corner of his mouth...

This is obviously just his imagination, but he seems to be able to see the look on Holly's face, and see a young, immature and enthusiastic heart that is affected by the vigorous joy and sorrow.

His heart also trembled, like an old string being pulled by an invisible hand, but it made a completely unfamiliar sound.

He was provoked by the sound, and there was a ripple in his heart, but the shape of the ripple was like candy under the candle, hazy, even he himself couldn't figure out the reason.

He was lost in thought until Dongqing reminded: "Master, won't you take it? Could it be that today's medicine is not bitter?"

"Eat, eat," he put the peach blossom candy on his tongue, smacked it carefully, and let out a satisfying sound.There was nowhere to rest the idle hands, and they simply fell on the top of Dongqing's head, and said softly: "It seems that you have really grown up."

Under the clean and white headband, there is a small unicorn hidden. I don't know what it has become now.

He suddenly wanted to take a look, but the other party deftly dodged his fingers like a loach, and complained casually: "I told you that I am no longer a child."

Lu Zhengqiu looked at the opposite person through the hazy white gauze, and after a while, he suddenly said: "It's true that when you were young, it's not the same as now. At that time, no matter how much I made you happy, you were indifferent."

"Amusing me?" Lu Dongqing raised her eyebrows, "When does this refer to?"

Lu Zhengqiu smiled softly: "It happened when we first settled down in Sanping Village. Do you still remember that the neighbor gave you two puppets to play with?"

Lu Dongqing showed a perplexed look, closed her eyes, and thought for a while with her chin resting, then suddenly opened her eyes and said, "I remember, two puppets, a monkey with a big tail, and a rabbit with long ears."

"Yeah, everyone is naive," Lu Zhengqiu nodded, "but you are different from other children. Not only do you not play with it, you don't even look at it. You just bury your head in your medical skills and recite line by line every day. I'm afraid that if you study too hard and make your mind stupid, then..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fang Fang took over his words and said impatiently: "Take out those two puppets, put one on each of the left and right hands, squat behind the table, and show me the play."

"That's right," Lu Zhengqiu nodded in satisfaction, "It seems that you have remembered."

"Such an extraordinary picture, even if I want to forget it, it will be unforgettable."

"Really? You were completely indifferent at that time, and you didn't even want to reward me with a smile. It made me restless, and I was flustered like a child despite my age."

Speaking of this, Dongqing finally couldn't help laughing, and burst out laughing: "Master, do you still remember how the play was performed?"

"I don't remember that."

"But I still remember that you let the monkey steal the neighbor's cucumber and rice, and then let the rabbit scold it. It must be because your drama is too boring, so I can't laugh."

Lu Zhengqiu rolled his eyelids and tried hard to recall, it seemed that there was such a thing, his temperament at that time was quite different from now, he was much more boring, and he could only make up dull and boring stories.

He curled his lips and said, "Okay, Master is kind enough to tease you, but you actually despise Master."

"How dare you dare."

The two teased each other in the room shrouded in tulle, and each dived into the depths of memory, searching for the good fortune of the past.

Lu Zhengqiu suddenly felt that the connection between him and this child seemed to be more profound than he imagined, it was just covered in the veil, and even he couldn't see clearly.

What is near and what is far is probably the most difficult for the people in it to understand.

He still wanted to ask a few more questions, but Dongqing had already turned around and said, "It's getting late, master should rest earlier."

"Okay." He nodded in response, and turned his gaze out of the window, "After a few more days of walking, Yushan should be there."
