After being pulled up by the master

Outside the main hall, the juniors who got the news early had already set up the welcome ceremony, and they were waiting for their rumored senior brother to step into the mountain gate.

Cao Ruoyu had nothing to do, playing chess with his juniors, while Zhang He stood watching the battle.Others were either still competing in the school training ground, or they were gathering together to play other things. Only Shi Wei and Fu Ji sat on the steps with their own thoughts, silent.

Fu Ji was nervous because he was about to meet Xue Wendi. He is currently the only one who saw the master summoning the soul. He still doesn't know what the elder brother will look like when he wakes up. ?Shi Wei was unusual, he was purely curious about this elder brother, and when he finally saw him today, he was so excited that he could draw his sword and make three hundred rounds of gestures with him.

"Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, why are you sitting so far away? Don't you play chess together?"

Cao Ruoyu was not good at chess, so he was soon at a disadvantage. He was about to ask for foreign aid, but when he tilted his head, he saw his two senior brothers sitting in front of the steps like door gods. Senior brother won’t enter the mountain gate until noon, so don’t worry about it. It’s rare that master allows us to take a day off, why don’t you come and play with us?”

Shi Wei said solemnly: "If you want to play with yourself, I have to recharge my energy, don't let the elder brother look down on us."

Cao Ruoyu was dumbfounded, he looked at the junior brother on one side, and the other side shook his head, so he stopped talking.

It was Fu Ji who said, "Brother hasn't returned for many years, you have to compete with him as soon as you come up, it's not in harmony with the etiquette. Rein in your curiosity, layer Lan, it won't be too late to compete again after a while."

Shi Wei didn't agree, but he didn't refute either. Instead, he silently clenched the sword in his hand and stared at the mountain road in the distance.

At this moment, a junior brother hurried up: "Brothers, I received the news that a stranger came up from the mountain!"

Shi Weideng stood up immediately: "Have you seen his face? What have you brought?"

The younger brother faltered: "I didn't see it clearly, but I found someone, so I hurriedly reported back to the senior brothers."

"How can you not see this clearly?" Shi Wei was a little anxious, Fu Ji pressed his shoulder, and said in a gentle voice: "Our Changning Sword Sect does not participate in world affairs, and few people come. Get ready first."

Shi Wei thought about it for a while, and it made some sense, so he nodded in agreement.

"Whoosh-"

A bunch of star-blue fireworks rose into the sky, shining brightly under the daylight.

Xue Wendi, who was halfway up the mountain, looked up and smiled: "Master still keeps these things! If I had known, I would have made more and put them away."

When Xue Wendi was fifteen or sixteen years old, he found a collection of fireworks making crafts in his master's collection of books. Since he had never seen fireworks before, the active young man made them by himself according to the book. Show it to Master.That year, Suochun Valley had an exceptionally heavy snowfall, and even Xue Si had to wrap himself in a thick fox fur before going out.Under the brilliant fireworks, among the white snow everywhere, Xue Sijing stood in the sky and the earth, with gentle eyebrows and eyes, thin lips slightly parted, the smile that was slightly blurred in Xue Wendi's memory suddenly became very clear.

Xue Wendi felt a palpitation for no reason.

"Master is so pretty."

His heart was pounding and his face was warming up, which was really strange. How could he miss Master so much?It's only been a while since we parted, but I just feel that this mountain road is a little longer, so long that he wants to fly up with Yujian immediately.

If Hengyan was still there, he would definitely scare those little kids to death.

Xue Wendi smiled, and his steps became much lighter.He attributed his yearning for Xue Si to the feeling of being close to his hometown, even though he himself knew that there was something wrong with it, but that was his master, who was with him day and night and loved him very much.

Xue Wendi couldn't figure it out clearly, so he simply suppressed the weird emotions in his heart, and stepped into the mountain gate in one go.

To say that although he had been dead for ten years, he had seen the world at least before he was alive, but when he entered the door, he didn't understand that the juniors and brothers were decorated with lanterns and festoons, red and purple, and yellow and green. I thought he stepped into some Shura hall.

Xue Wendi froze in place for a moment.

And his group of juniors who had lined up and were about to shout "Welcome senior brother back to the mountain" were also muffled.

Cao Ruoyu couldn't help but poked Fu Ji in front of him: "Second senior brother, what are you doing? All the juniors are counting on you!"

It turned out that they had agreed and asked Fu Ji to shout at the first call, but for some reason, the man fell silent and didn't say a word, Cao Ruoyu was so anxious that his palms were sweating.

Fu Ji also had his back stiffened, his expression distorted: "Do you think I don't want to? Your third senior brother is pinching my arm! It hurts!"

"Ok?"

Cao Ruoyu glanced at it, and sure enough, Shi Wei was strangling Fu Ji's arm tightly, causing the veins on his neck to bulge.Cao Ruoyu was in a hurry, so he moved behind Shi Wei again: "What are you doing, third brother, let go of second brother!"

Shi Wei's eyes were almost glued to Xue Wendi's body, and he turned a deaf ear to his junior brother's words.

Xue Wendi was stared at like this, and it was completely out of the situation, so he had no choice but to say hello first: "Hello, everyone, next time, Xue Wendi, it's—"

"Monster! How dare you sneak into my faction in broad daylight! Take your life!"

Shi Wei jumped up suddenly, drew his sword and slashed at Xue Wendi, who dodged and took a step back, his face full of confusion: "What are you talking about?"

"Monster! You are still stubborn! I saw your face that night!"

Shi Wei yelled, and bit his index finger again, Xue Wendi suddenly realized that it was because he was pierced by the sword that night, so Shi Wei saw his face.

He smiled: "Junior brother, it's not good to bite your own fingers frequently, it's easy to get sores."

Shi Weike didn't listen to this, and still pointed his sword at each other. Fu Ji also reacted at this moment, and hurried over to fight: "Cenglan, Shenlan, calm down!"

"How can I be calm! This monster failed to confuse Master, and entered the room in a grandiose way! I must do justice for the sky today!"

Shi Wei was so angry that he couldn't tell the north from the south. In his opinion, this monster teased him one after another, and even pretended to be their senior brother. Isn't this bullying?Is it up to the other party?

Xue Wendi frowned, and casually tore down a three-inch-long small flag they hung in the courtyard: "Then let the horse come over."

He felt that Shi Wei's frizzy temper was really bad, and he had to change it.

Today is the first lesson he taught his juniors as a big brother.

Shi Wei drew his sword and rushed up, but Fu Ji couldn't hold him back at all, so he simply let go. Seeing this, Cao Ruoyu was at a loss, and secretly clenched the sword in his hand, thinking that something was wrong, he immediately stepped down to persuade the fight.

Shi Wei is full of momentum, but where is Xue Wendi's opponent?

The other party was holding a small flag, making him yelp and scream, and even knocked off his sword, "Kang Dang——", the long sword flew far away, Shi Wei was so painful that he was tearful, squatting on the ground sobbing.Fu Ji kindly went to pull him, but he couldn't stand it, sobbing: "I can't beat him."

"After all, it's a senior brother. It's normal not to be able to beat him." Fu Ji comforted him. He finally understood why the master valued the senior brother so much. Let alone Shi Wei, even the entire division combined may not be able to beat him. over him.

Shi Wei was even more depressed: "He looks exactly like that succubus, how could he be our elder brother?"

"How is it impossible? The succubus is full of tricks, what if he deliberately changes into my appearance, and wants our brothers and sisters to kill each other, so that he can reap the benefits?"

Xue Wendi talked nonsense in an orderly manner, threw the flag in his hand, walked over, and squatted on the ground, "Senior brother hurt you, I apologize to you, don't be sad, okay?"

Shi Wei glanced at his astonished senior brother, and got goosebumps all over his body: "Stay away from me! I won't be fooled by beauty!"

"Ok?"

Xue Wendi raised his eyebrows, and saw Shi Wei got up, picked up the sword, and stood behind Fu Ji.

Fu Ji cupped his fists to Xue Wendi: "I'm going to ask Master, please, please, senior brother, please wait a moment."

He read the word "please" three times, maybe because he was not used to addressing Xue Wendi, or because Shi Wei made such a fuss, he was also a little confused, in short, he was a little uncomfortable.

"I'll go with you."

Xue Wendi thought about going to see the master directly, he is not good at handling the current situation either.

"I'll go as well."

Shi Wei whispered, Xue Wendi did not object.

"Then I'll go too!"

Cao Ruoyu yelled, and finally a group of people went looking for Xue Si.

Xue Si came out of the bamboo house and saw the group of disciples in the main hall. It seemed that he had expected this situation long ago, and he didn't have any emotional ups and downs.

He first glanced at Xue Wendi, nodded and said, "Are you back?"

"Ah."

When the other party saw him, his heart throbbed inexplicably again, so he turned his head slightly, not looking directly at him.

Xue Si looked at Shi Wei whose eyes were reddened, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Beating."

The kid was honest at last, but he was still not convinced, "Master, this elder brother looks exactly like the monster I've seen, I'm worried—"

He whispered, "I'm worried that this is not the real senior brother."

"Since you are worried, you must find a way to reassure yourself."

Xue Si said unhurriedly, "In your opinion, how to solve this matter?"

Shi Wei's eyes wandered, and he finally settled down: "Teacher, I have a way to prove it, please agree with Master."

"it is good."

Xue Si agreed.

Shi Wei looked at Xue Wendi again, who also nodded and said, "You just do it, I don't mind."

In this way, Shi Wei took out the string of copper bells from his pocket and tied them on the back of Xue Wendi's hand.Then he took some incense ash from the incense burner in front of the patriarch, painted a simple gossip pattern on the back of the opponent's hand, and muttered words in his mouth.His voice was so low that even Xue Wendi, who was close at hand, couldn't hear clearly, but based on his feeling, it should also be an exorcism spell.

Shi Wei babbled like this for a while, but the copper bell and the incense ash did not respond, so he untied the copper bell in a muffled voice, and bowed three times to Xue Wendi: "Welcome big brother back to the mountain, I was the one who was reckless earlier , I don’t mean to offend, please also senior brother Haihan.”

Xue Wendi was delighted when he heard it: "What offence, isn't this a discussion between seniors and brothers? I hurt you so much, it must be seniors who apologize to you, please forgive me."

After saying that, he also politely saluted others. Seeing this, Fu Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Cao Ruoyu also took Shi Wei's shoulders: "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! Just invite me to drink with senior brother!"

"Why should I invite you?"

Shi Wei rolled his eyes, and Cao Ruoyu joked, "You can't treat them differently if you're in the same school!"

Laugh out loud.

"Drinking is a good thing!" Xue Wendi was delighted, "Go first, I have something to do with Master, so I'll be there right away."

"Since the elder brother has spoken, I will reluctantly invite you together!"

Shi Wei said, he pushed and shoved Cao Ruoyu, urging him to leave quickly, several people hooked their shoulders and left the main hall in twos and threes.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xue Wendi looked at his master a few more times, still very embarrassed.

"Have something to say?"

Xue Si asked him, Xue Wendi scratched his temples, and smiled: "Master, when I first went up the mountain, I felt that this mountain road is very long, and I have never climbed such a long road before."

"When you find Hengyan, you don't have to walk."

Xue Wendi thought about it and knew it was the answer, but his face was warm and enthusiastic, and he always felt that this answer was not enough.

"Master, I always miss you when I come back. Is it because of my closeness to my hometown? That's why it happens?" Xue Wendi's eyes were clear. Not at your level."

Hearing this, Xue Si was silent for a moment: "Why do you miss me?"

"Think about it, I miss you when I see fireworks."

Xue Wendi always said something, and as he talked, he felt that this was not good, "Master, am I being too outspoken?"

Xue Si stared at him: "These words can only be said to Master, don't tell others."

"Ah."

Xue Wendi pursed his lips and smiled again, "Master, it's great to be your apprentice. You are willing to listen to whatever I say."

"Go to have a drink with the juniors, the master has to go back first."

Xue Si said, turned around to leave, Xue Wendi said, "I'll be back soon Master, you wait for me, I'll make a few more fireworks to show you at night."

"it is good."

Xue Siying came down and took away the last trace of light fragrance in the main hall.
