After being pulled up by the master

The Sibian Hall is located in the southeast of Linyuan. The terrain is low. There are three entrances and three exits. The bright red pistils and white plums almost completely submerge it. From a distance, only two or three painted cornices can be vaguely seen, which is really beautiful.

Xue Wendi hadn't seen Wen Ke for a long time. In his impression, the man was thin and quiet, reticent, and the sword around his waist seemed to be just an ornament, and he had never seen him take it off.Wen Ke's eyesight is not very good, and he always stares in a daze when looking at people. He often has to stand for a long time before he can barely see the face of the other person. His originally restrained temperament is even more dull.Xue Wendi was able to become friends with him because of his unique clothes color. When Wen Ke saw him for the first time, he muttered: "I thought it was someone who washed the sword robe until it turned white, and I couldn't bear to change it. It turned out that it wasn't Same door."

Xue Wendi smiled: "Junior Suochun Valley Xue Wendi, I have met Elder Wen."

"I'm your age."

Wen Ke's words were astonishing, Xue Wendi was taken aback, so young is Linyuan Elder?When a cultivator reaches a certain stage, his aging speed will be much slower than ordinary people, so it is often inaccurate to judge the age of this person by his appearance. When Xue Wendi saw that he was young, he only thought it was because of his profound morality. Compete and their own age.

Come to think of it, Wen Ke is also in his thirties this year.

Xue Wendi followed Li Xian to the gate of the Sibian Hall, where two flourishing red plums and white plums happened to half cover the door, and the faint fragrance floated, forming an interesting scene.

He suddenly said, "Yuzhi should still be studying ancient books."

After hearing this sentence, Li Xian thought there was more to come, but when she looked at Xue Wendi, the other party just blinked, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising, with a childish expression on his face.

"Ah."

Li Xian understood and nodded seriously.

Wen Ke's desk is full of his beloved ancient books, one after another, spread out messily, the sun is just right, the sun shines on the black and white paper, as if you can still smell the faint fragrance of ink.

He has poor eyesight, and at night, facing the candlelight, he can't always read clearly, so he can only study hard during this time.A white plum tree in front of the window dropped a petal, which happened to land on a character "lou".

He didn't care.

"Elder Wen, are you in there?"

There was a knock on the door outside the house. Wen Ke heard the sound familiar, but couldn't remember who it was, so he got up and opened the door.

"Elder Wen, I'm Minhuai." Li Xian smiled very cutely.

But Wen Ke can only vaguely get a general idea. He recognizes Li Xian and knows that the other party is a smart boy, but now he pays a sudden visit and thinks about it, which is a bit strange: "Isn't the Changning Sword Sect coming today? Are you not going to accompany me?" The head is staying in Zhiyang Hall, why did you come to my place?"

"Master is accompanying Head Xue. Let me show some guests around. No, I just happened to be here." Li Xian smiled, turned sideways, and introduced people to him one by one.

Wen Ke habitually squinted his eyes and looked at them one by one, without much joy: "Everyone is polite."

"Elder Wen is polite."

Fu Ji and the others responded, Wen Ke looked away, invited them in, and after they were seated, asked again: "Do you all have tea?"

"Don't bother Elder Wen Lao, we just saw the red plum blossoms in the yard. We miss you for a while, so we will come and have a look, and we will leave after a while." Li Xian spoke sweetly, and anyone who heard these words would be happy, including Wen Ke. , but he seldom had a very special reaction. He just replied seriously, "Thank you for missing me."

Xue Wendi came in from the window a long time ago, and was going to sneak around behind him quietly to tease him, but he didn't expect to hear him chatting with Li Xian, so he couldn't help but want to laugh.Wen Ke noticed something moving around him, so he looked to the side. Xue Wendi shifted his position flexibly. Wen Ke didn't see it at first glance, but turned around again, but he still didn't see anything.

"Strange, is it windy today?" Wen Ke muttered, Li Xian pinched his fingertips, and managed not to laugh out loud. Expression changes.

"Wait a minute, everyone, I'm going to close the window."

As he spoke, he turned to leave, but Xue Wendi turned to his back again, and poked his shoulder with his index finger, and the other party turned around again, only seeing his own bookshelf.

Li Xian smiled and said: "Elder Wen, sit down, I will close the window for you."

After saying that, she made two steps in three steps, rushed over and closed the window, Wen Ke said quietly, and sat down full of doubts.

"I heard that the Changning Sword Sect won the first prize in this kendo competition. I don't know which hero is in the hands of that famous sword?"

Wen Ke asked softly, Fu Ji was taken aback, glanced at Xue Wendi who was standing behind the other party, and answered bravely, "It's in the hands of our master."

"Oh." Wen Ke was a little lonely, and his voice was lower, "I thought it would be one of you who won Hengyan."

Li Xian heard the words and asked cautiously: "I heard that the Hengyan was originally the sword of Xue Wendi of Suochun Valley. This person has a lot to do with Linyuan, why do we use his sword as a famous sword?" The victory item of the conference? Although the sword casting pool has just been unsealed, if you put all your energy into it, it is not difficult to forge a famous weapon."

Wen Ke's eyes were blank, and he just sat quietly.

"Master Guan also agreed to the matter proposed by Elder Guan, and the elder brother did not object. I heard that he has the deepest friendship with Xue Wendi, so how could he agree?"

Li Xian was full of doubts, and now he was even more impatient, Wen Ke lowered his eyes: "I also know about this."

Xue Wendi suddenly lost the desire to tease him.

Wen Ke's palms were facing each other, and with a light grip, the flowers in the speculative hall flew silently, the red windows were closed tightly, and the stream of light was broken, like algae in the lake, giving a sense of confusion.

Xue Wendi knew that he had set up a barrier to prevent the walls from having ears.

"When Xiaolou died, Xiaonian summoned his soul for him. For seven days and seven nights, the incense was broken, and the flags were destroyed. They never found it, so I thought that Xiaolou had already been reincarnated. I thought so at first, but this spring—" Wen Ke paused, and then said again, "The red pistil and white plum blossoms suddenly bloomed in my yard."

It was a night in late spring, the beginning of summer was approaching, the galaxy was shining brightly, and the grass and trees were green.

He was awakened by a faint sound of insects, or, he had not slept soundly in the first place, the world was broken in the dream, the mountains and rivers were precarious, and he was in a trance after waking up.

But the flowers bloomed.

A night of spring breeze, the branches are full of fragrance.

At first Wen Ke thought he had misread it, so he put on his coat, hurried out of the bedroom, and ran to the courtyard.The stars are pouring down, covering the branches, the red stamens are fragrant, and the flowers and leaves are dependent on each other.On an ordinary winter day, this is just an ordinary scene, but now that the spring breeze is in full bloom, this is a gift from heaven.

Wen Ke was sleepless all night, standing under the tree in a trance, listening to the flowers blooming and his own heartbeat.

"I knew at that time that Xiaolou was not reincarnated, he was even alive." Wen Ke said, "Ten years ago, he carried back a seriously injured comrade from Cangzhou, named Zhong Youqi. He asked me to treat him, and I promised to go."

When Xue Wendi heard the name Zhong Youqi again, all kinds of feelings came to his heart, which were indescribably complicated.

The reason why Wen Ke was able to sit on the position of Linyuan Elder at a young age was because he was erudite and knowledgeable, and he knew everything from techniques, medicine, and gossip. It would seem superficial to describe him with astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom.So Sun Xuehua didn't let him go to the front line, saying that he was the last wall and there must be no losses.

But when Wen Ke saw Zhong Youqi at first sight, he was concerned.This person's internal energy is depleted and his body is weak, he is powerless to recover, but when he probes his heart veins, there is a faint trace of aggressiveness between the reality and the reality.

Even though Wen Kedang became suspicious, he never showed it.

"I have approached Xiaolou in private and asked about this person's background, but Xiaolou seemed to have fallen headlong into it, and didn't take my words to heart."

When Xue Wendi's ears warmed up, he felt a little guilty.

Wen Ke said again: "But at that time, there were too many injuries in the city, and I didn't have extra time to pursue Zhong Youqi, so I could only remind Xiaolou to be more careful. However, just in case, I asked Xiaolou His three hairs were burned into charcoal, wrapped in lotus leaves, and buried under the white plum tree."

It was only then that Xue Wendi remembered that there was such an incident, and Wen Ke told him at that time that it was for him to pray for blessings.At that time, he wanted to leave Linyuan again, he left in a hurry, without thinking carefully, but now in such a quiet study room, listening to his old friend talk about the past, there is such a deep meaning in it, he was suddenly moved.

"The world is difficult, and I can't leave Linyuan. Naturally, I can't provide help in time. But if one day, when it comes to parting with life and death, I should have a way to fight the king of hell." Wen Ke sighed, "I was counting on Xiao Lou can come back safely, if it’s really not possible, I can also find his trace by relying on the charcoal, but there is no reply from him.”

Until the white plum blooms.

Wen Ke then came to his senses, Xue Wendi did not die completely, but was sealed in the soul-locking array and could not escape.Now that his spiritual energy is revived, his blood is regenerated, Baimei has a sense, and flowers bloom overnight.

Xue Wendi listened and thought about the time. Isn't this late spring the time when grass grows on his grave?

"I covered up the signs of the white plum blossoms. I wanted to take this opportunity to continue searching for Xiaolou's soul, but the aura is too weak. When I leave Linyuan, my soul-seeking technique will hardly be effective."

Wen Ke felt regretful, Cao Ruoyu somehow interjected: "Then why didn't you go out of Linyuan to find him? My master traveled a long, long way and searched all corners of the country to find—— "

He glanced at his elder brother and fell silent.

He seems to have said something wrong again.

Wen Ke was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "At that time, I never thought about leaving Linyuan."

He smiled and didn't hide his heart, "I guess, this is the difference between me and Guzhu Xue. All I can think of is to improve spiritual skills and walk on my feet. I can't do it."

As soon as Li Xian heard him address Xue Si as Valley Master Xue, he understood: "Elder Wen, do you know everything?"

"I have bad eyesight, but I'm not blind." Wen Ke said with a deep meaning, "Also, the one behind me, how long do you plan to stand?"

Xue Wendi laughed out loud: "I thought you really couldn't see me, so you were waiting for me here?"

"Who are you waiting for?" Wen Ke also smiled, Xue Wendi found a stool and sat down, he squinted his eyes and looked, "It's almost the same as before, Guzhu Xue is really a strange person."

"That's my master, isn't he a strange person?" Xue Wendi looked proud, but Wenke couldn't see clearly, so he didn't agree with him, but continued: "Not long after the white plum blossoms bloomed, some disciples picked up Hengyan at the gate of Linyuan Mountain. .”

"Find it?"

Xue Wendi realized that this matter was not simple.

"Yes, I found it." Wen Ke looked solemn, "Someone deliberately hung the wild goose on the plaque of the mountain gate, which is very conspicuous. After Xiaonian learned about it, he searched for the person who put the sword for a long time, but he couldn't find it. I had no choice but to let it go. I guess, besides Guzhu Xue and I, there are still people who know that you have been resurrected."

"It's a clock."

Xue Wendi felt a dull pain in the wound, and the feeling of the scimitar piercing through his body would scare him for the rest of his life.

"Not only that, Linyuan already has an enchantment, and it may not be easy to quietly release wild geese at the mountain gate." Wen Ke shook his head and did not elaborate.

He knew at that time that Hengyan was just the beginning, and there would be a bloodbath after that.

"They wanted to use the wild goose as a bait to lure you to appear. I wanted to push the boat along with the flow and did not stop me. As for why the senior brother agreed and for what reason they persuaded Xiaonian, I don't know. Or maybe the senior brother didn't persuade you at all. It was just an order."

Wen Ke let out a long sigh, "Fortunately, you're fine, if you die again, Guzhu Xue probably has to throw me to the side of Siguo Cliff."

"My master is the most gentle person in the world. You think him too cruel." Xue Wendi half joked, Wen Ke hesitated to speak, and the most terrifying thing is when a gentle person gets angry. It's a pity that Xue Wendi is such a fool. Gua, I don't seem to understand.

He paused: "You don't like Zhong Youqi now, do you?"

Xue Wendi shook his head vigorously.

"That's good, it's not too late."

Wen Ke got up, climbed up the wooden ladder next to the bookshelf, took down a large wooden box from the top, put it under his arm, slowly climbed down, and handed it to Xue Wendi.

"Take it, it's very useful." Wen Ke wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, "I don't like Zhong Youqi, so I didn't give it to you. But Guzhu Xue is very nice and a good person, you have to work hard."

Xue Wendi was confused by him: "No, you, what do you mean, why didn't I understand?"

"You'll know when you go back and see for yourself." Wen Ke glanced at Fu and Li Xian, then shook his head again, thinking, in front of the child, it's better not to expose the innocent thoughts of his old friend.

Cao Ruoyu came to his senses: "What? Senior brother likes Zhong Youqi?"

"Huh? You don't know?"

Wen Ke was surprised for a moment, and his confused eyes brightened a lot.

"Nothing!" Xue Wendi blushed with anxiety. He and Wen Ke had similar interests and were about the same age. Naturally, they could talk much more than Sun Yi.Therefore, he did not deliberately conceal his special affection for Zhong Youqi.But right now, he was really embarrassed to be caught off guard by this old secret.

Wen Ke didn't expect such a situation, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I thought they all knew."

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly noticed a change outside the barrier: "Someone is coming."

The author has something to say:

Wen Ke: There is nothing in this world that I don't know!
