Different pupils

Wu Chaosheng's strength is obvious to all. Although You Jinge's withdrawal halfway made their speed of catching ghosts much slower, but in the end they still won the high praise of all sects with their far ahead breaking speed.

After returning from the valley, Wu Chaosheng was surrounded by a group of elders and chatted for a long time. If the other juniors would have been impatient, he was still gentle and personable, with a smile on his mouth, and had a good discussion with the elders Let's take a look at the areas that need to be improved this time, the speed of speech is not too fast, so that everyone nods frequently.

Because the masters of the Ghost Control Sect were too stingy, they didn't even want to invite them for a meal. The masters dared not speak out, so they could only take the disciples to the ceremony and leave one by one.

It was only at this time that Wu Chaosheng heard about the fact that his junior brother was driven down the mountain.

Wu Chaosheng was stunned.

Hua Qingqiong still explained a few more words to his beloved disciple: "Don't worry, I'm not expelling him from the sect, but just letting him go down the mountain to practice for a year. Brother, please help."

Wu Chaosheng continued to be dumbfounded.

Hua Qingqiong frowned, lying lazily on the bamboo chair and shaking a fan: "Are you not satisfied?"

Wu Chaosheng was speechless for a moment, stunned for a long time, and suddenly came back to his senses, "He really went down the mountain? How long has he been down the mountain?"

"I've been walking for a while, don't worry, I asked your uncle to give you enough money and dry food."

"Master, you..." For the first time in his life, Wu Chaosheng wanted to be angry with Master, but he also knew the reason why Master did so.

It's nothing more than wanting to separate them so that I can't take care of Jin Ge in everything.Although You Jinge is young, but due to the early death of his family, his personality is different from other children. He is precocious and mature, and he is childish.Hua Qingqiong asked him to go down the mountain to practice in advance so that he could go out and see more, and experience what the so-called "human world" really is.

It's one thing to be intellectually clear, but quite another to be emotionally unacceptable.

Wu Chaosheng grasped the Shifang sword tightly, resisted the urge to chase after the junior brother immediately, and said patiently: "Master, he is still young, at least he must find a suitable senior brother to accompany him..."

"A child as old as him at the foot of the mountain can be engaged." Hua Qingqiong said, "He is the youngest child in the family. He is taken care of by his brothers and sisters. He has a somewhat arrogant personality. Suddenly something like that happened and you brought him back to be careful Petting, for fear of making him unhappy, that's why he has the temperament that is not afraid today."

"It's time to let him go out on his own." Hua Qingqiong said earnestly, "Don't worry, I left a tracking incense on him, and I will let your uncle visit him regularly."

Wu Chaosheng was still worried, and said in disapproval: "Master, Junior Brother is different from other disciples. He has an extreme and stubborn personality, and he is easy to get into a corner. Qili, the Luohun Sect, wants to recruit him to join. Wouldn't you push Junior Brother out by doing this?"

"You can't make choices for him for the rest of your life." Hua Qingqiong shook his legs, stood up from the chair and stretched. Hua Wancheng, who was next to him, dutifully helped him put away the bamboo chair and carried it back down the mountain. .

"What do you want him to do, what do you want him to do, that's what you want. He will only feel bound and not understood. It's better to let him make his own choice. If he still feels that the Luohunmen is the most important thing after going down the mountain for a year It is more suitable for him, and I will not stop him."

"Master!"

"Xi'er." Hua Qingqiong turned his face, his eyes were covered with a black cloth but he was looking straight in his direction, his nose was straight and his lips were red, making his face so pale that it was almost transparent, "You are too interfering with Jin Ge His talent and hard work have never lost to you. When will you protect him? It’s time to let him go down the mountain to practice. In a few years later, he will only be farther and farther away from you. From today Follow me to retreat and practice, and leave other things to Mi Hai for the time being."

Wu Chaosheng was restless and restless, afraid that if he didn't keep an eye on his younger brother, he would go astray, or try to subdue some ghosts beyond his control, which would harm him.

He thought of Miss Qin of Xuanhuomen's senior brother whose whereabouts were unknown, and he couldn't sit still in a panic until the body was found.

But he also knew that Master's words were not unreasonable.

Through this competition, it can be seen that he has learned a lot, and it is not a problem to go down the mountain alone. The master gave him enough money and dry food, and there is also a tracking incense to track his whereabouts. The uncle will check regularly, and nothing will happen. .

He had to learn to let go and let the junior brother find his own way.

His palms were sweating, and Shifang Sword seemed to sense his master's mood, and emitted a faint brilliance to comfort him.

He clenched the Shifang Sword so hard that his fingers turned white, and veins bulged on the back of his hand. After a while, he bowed his head and said, "The disciple takes orders."

Hua Qingqiong nodded, and wanted to leave with a flick of his sleeves. Wu Chaosheng chased after a few steps, but couldn't help but said, "Master, let me see him off. I'll take him down the mountain and come back soon."

Hua Qingqiong sighed secretly, but finally did not stop.

It was still raining, and dark clouds wrapped around the horizon, casting uneven black shadows on the stretching peak of Yaofeng.

You Jinge walked slowly on the mountain path with a sword on his back and a burden on his back. Last time he secretly followed other brothers down the mountain. This is the second time he went down the mountain. Walking this road alone feels bleak. few.

The muddy mountain road was not easy to walk, and his feet kept slipping. He had to take out his sword as a walking stick. The rain soaked his shoes, socks and trousers. The stones were beaten to wilt.

Halfway up the mountain, You Jinge looked at the smoke billowing from the kitchen in the distance, not knowing what it was like for a moment.

He felt wronged, unwilling, and somewhat at a loss for the way ahead, but when he thought that he finally had the opportunity to seek revenge on that ghost himself, he regained strength in his heart.

According to the school rules of Yuguizong, if you are under the age, you can't go down the mountain without the permission of the teacher. Therefore, since he was brought back to the mountain, except for the accident last time, this is the first time he has left the mountain.

Even if it was last time, he didn't go very far, and he didn't feel bored on the road with his brothers, but now he is alone, and there is still one year left...

He pursed his lower lip, and stubbornly continued to walk down. Before he had taken a few steps, the thin raindrops above his head were blocked.

You Jinge raised his head, and Xing Yu in his body immediately saw the person coming.

Wu Chaosheng was carrying a sword on his back, and he was wearing his trousers, revealing a white calf. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, and his slender and beautiful fingers were holding a paper umbrella. His hair was a little wet on his forehead, which was almost the same as that of Lin Haoren. There was a warm and reassuring smile on his face.

"I knew you didn't bring an umbrella." He breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I caught up with you."

You Jinge's mind moved, but he didn't speak.

"Angry?" Wu Chaosheng said warmly, "Master asked you to go down the mountain to practice, aren't you happy? Didn't you want to go down the mountain a long time ago?"

"... not angry." You Jinge let out a constricted breath in his chest, lowered his head and said, "It's just a little sudden."

"Are you going to intercede with Master?" Wu Chaosheng probed.

"...No." He had already begged once, and since it was useless, he would not bow his head a second time.

Young people's self-esteem and stubbornness always appear so arrogant and lonely, with thorns and unwilling fire, not only easy to hurt others, but also burn themselves completely.

Wu Chaosheng nodded, and didn't try to persuade him any more. He just stuffed the umbrella into the boy's hand, turned around and said, "Come on."

You Jinge was taken aback, realized what he was going to do, and backed away with red ears: "I'm not a child anymore, no need!"

"Your shoes and socks are all wet, and it is easy to get cold." Wu Chaosheng also carried a burden on his back, and said, "Here are extra cloaks, shoes and insoles for you. The uncle is careless, and he will miss things. I I also brought the jerky you like, as well as the high-quality cinnabar that is hard to buy at the foot of the mountain."

The senior brother was eloquent, and he really looked like an old lady. You Jinge felt agitated when he heard it. He lowered his head and held the umbrella to see that the senior brother's hair and shoulders were wet, and finally climbed up the senior brother's back slowly.

Just like when I was a child.

The young man weighed a lot, but Wu Chaosheng was very strong, and he carried the junior brother on his back with ease.

After he stood up straight, he took off the shoes and socks of the junior brother, pulled up his clothes and wiped his feet and calf stained with mud, making sure that they would not get wet, before continuing to walk down the mountain.

The mountains are quiet, only the sound of rain beating the leaves, even the noisy birds have rested, the soil is moist and fragrant, and large groups of red earthworms can be seen digging out the ground and crawling in lines.

You Jinge suddenly remembered the past when he was a child. He caught many earthworms to scare his sister. When she cried, her mother hugged her and scolded him, asking him to help feed the chickens and not make trouble.

When my sister stopped crying, my mother got maltose again, stuffed it into his mouth, and squeezed his face with a smile.

After thinking about it, the picture in my memory became the big brother again.

The eldest brother is not afraid of these insects, and has caught many earthworms as bait, and took himself to fish.

In summer, the stream in Houshan Mountain is clear and transparent, and some fish leap high, bringing out a fleeting little rainbow.The brother wore a big straw hat, stepped in the water with his trousers rolled up, his clothes were tied around his waist, his smile was dazzling in the sun, and he said that he would make soup for him when he caught a big fish.

You Jinge unconsciously rubbed against his brother's neck, hugged him even tighter, and said lazily, "Senior brother, I'm sorry."

When the conflict between the two is put aside, he still seems to be the junior brother that Wu Chaosheng is familiar with.

Wu Chao gave a pause and said with a smile, "Yes."

"I shouldn't talk to you like that, I... just afraid that you will be deceived by those things. They are very deceptive."

"Ok, I know."

"Brother..."

"Ok?"

"I don't hate you, never have."

Wu Chaosheng's eyes were a little sour, and his throat tightened: "Yes."

The moist breath in the rainforest mixed with the faint fragrance of green grass on Wu Chaosheng's body. For a long time later, when You Jinge felt that the road ahead was difficult and he couldn't go on, he would always think of this scene in the middle of the night: the senior brother was carrying him on his back, holding on to his body. He walked slowly on the rainy mountain road with bare feet.

Slowly, as if time stood still, only the two of them existed in the world.

When he was about to go down the mountain, You Jinge suddenly said, "There is something I haven't said all along."

Wu Chaosheng put him down and brought him clean shoes and socks: "What?"

"I was not at home the day the ghost came."

"Ah."

"Actually, I was here before." You Jinge looked at the small village blurred in the rain ahead, "I wanted to eat maltose that day, but my mother wouldn't let me eat it, so I had a fight with her. It's not really a big deal, but She bought new clothes for her sister before, and my father allowed my elder brother to work in the shop to help, but I couldn't do anything, I couldn't even eat maltose, so I suddenly became very angry."

"I just hate my useless self." You Jinge lowered his head and looked at his hands, "If I hadn't quarreled with her, I would have been with them that day. It doesn't matter if I die, at least the family is still together. But I just ran away and came back very late. What were my parents thinking at the time? Are they angry with me? Are they worried about me at the last moment?"

You Jinge's eyes turned red, and he clenched his fists: "The last thing I said to my mother was 'I'm not coming back'. Will she be in a hurry?"

But he didn't even have the qualifications and chance to apologize.

It was as if a hole had been dug in Wu Chaosheng's heart suddenly, and the cold wind was leaking out.

He hugged his junior brother into his arms and covered his red eyes with one hand: "Why didn't you tell me?"

"……Prefer not to say."

"Now can I talk again?"

The younger brother didn't speak.The little junior thought silently: I said something wrong today, and I will tell you this secret as compensation.

Feeling the temperature of Wu Chaosheng covering his eyes, Xing Yu felt a little greedy.

It seemed that he subconsciously knew that after this, it would be difficult for them to have such close contact again.The brother's back in the rainforest, the hands that wiped his feet, and the hug at this moment will never be there again.

Because You Jinge has grown up.

Wu Chaosheng watched the younger brother go away, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, it was so loud that it caused a buzzing in the ears, and other sounds could not be heard clearly.

He wanted to see the figure of the junior brother clearly, but gradually he couldn't see clearly.

There seemed to be a layer of fog in front of my eyes, it was foggy, and then it became dark.

click-

The lights in the hospital corridor came on again.

Only Xing Yu and Lin Haoren were left in the corridor. Xing Yu was still standing behind Lin Haoren, covering his eyes with one hand, staring blankly at the real world.

The temperature in his hand is real, not a false memory, Lin Haoren moved slightly, Xing Yu suddenly came back to his senses, put down his hands and hugged the senior tightly from behind.

He didn't know why he did this, he just did it subconsciously and impulsively.

As if to compensate for something.

His heart was still filled with You Jinge's huge guilt and self-blame for Wu Chaosheng, and the feeling that had not faded drove him to do something.

"Xing Yu?" Lin Haoren said with a hoarse voice.

"Well, it's me." Xing Yu's hot breath was on the side of Lin Haoren's face. He rested his chin on the senior's shoulder and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

There was no beginning or end to these words, but Lin Haoren understood: "It doesn't hurt anymore."

It is said that it does not hurt, but the soul still seems to be pierced by those red threads, a little numb, a secret dull pain.

"I'm sorry..." Xing Yu rubbed his senior's shoulder.

This scene is so familiar, it seems to be the reappearance of You Jinge rubbing against the elder brother on the rainforest path.

Lin Haoren suddenly had goosebumps, but his heart was so soft that he patted his junior on the head.

The two were very emotional for a while, and did not speak to each other.

After hugging quietly for a while, there was a shout from the other side of the emergency exit: "Xing Yu?! Where did you go?!"

The two of them shook their heads, only then did they realize that they were still catching ghosts!

What kind of warmth are you doing at this time? !

Lin Haoren couldn't laugh or cry, he broke away from Xing Yu and wanted to go out, but Xing Yu grabbed his hand.

The palm much bigger than You Jinge held the senior's hand tightly. The man looked over with dark eyes, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Don't leave me, don't leave me even one step."

Lin Haoren recalled Wu Chaosheng's mood watching You Jinge disappear step by step into the rain, as if his heart was still empty, he nodded involuntarily and said: "Okay."
