Disciple's rebellion

"Hi, how do you sell this lotus root?" A young man with a simple ponytail knelt down and asked, pointing to the root of the lotus root.

Before the boss could speak, there was a rush of hoofbeats in the distance.

"The monster is coming, the monster is coming! Everyone, run for your life!"

The boss didn't care about the lotus roots he had cultivated for several years, he quickly pulled up the boy who was squatting in front of him, and ran away.

Looking back, the young man saw the chaotic air slowly attacking, narrowed his eyes, and flicked out with his fingers.

Realizing that the monster was dead, the young man supported the tired and panting boss, and said in a gentle voice, "The monster didn't catch up, so let's rest for a while."

The boss looked back and saw that the black mist was gone, and immediately sat on the ground and gasped for breath.

The boy broke off a few leaves from the side, and fanned the boss with his hands.

After the boss came over from a rest, he quickly stopped the boy and said, "No need, no need, you must be tired after running with me for so long, you should fan yourself for a while."

Seeing that the boss had indeed come to rest, the boy put down the leaves.

He asked: "Is this monster attacking all year round? Are there no monks to deal with this monster?"

The boss shook his head and said: "This monster only appeared seven days ago. I guess those cultivators haven't heard of the monster's infestation here, but someone in our town has already written a letter to the Xiuxian sect closest to us, and it should be eradicated soon. Drop him."

Seeing that the boss still had a sad face, the boy asked again: "Since there is a great possibility to solve this matter, why are you still so sad?"

The boss glanced at the boy and said with a smile, "You must be from another place."

The young man closed his eyes and nodded, thinking to himself: That's right.

The boss sighed and said, "Ever since Demon Zun Ning Jie gave up the position to Zhiru six years ago and roamed the two worlds by himself, monsters have almost stopped appearing in the human world. But recently, there have been many monsters Harassing the human world," he shook his head, "I'm afraid it's going to change again."

When the boy heard Ning Jie's name, his heart suddenly ached.

He frowned lightly, endured the inexplicable pain, and continued to ask: "Where have monster attacks happened recently?"

The boss sighed, and said: "Don't talk about the far ones, let's talk about the near ones. For example, in the next town, I heard that several people suddenly saw the red lanterns at night. After a few days, the people who saw the red lanterns immediately Died suddenly at home, the body is like withered grass in winter, one can tell that it has been sucked out of energy by a monster. Scary, scary!"

The boy thought about it, and said, "I'll take you back."

Back at the stall, the boss was overjoyed and gave the young man a few lotus roots, "It's fate to meet each other, not to mention the friendship between the two of us who escaped our lives. By the way, I don't know what your name is, little brother?"

The young man silently put the money into the boss' brocade bag with his spiritual power, and replied: "The name is one name."

Chu Meng put the root of the lotus root in his spiritual pouch, and walked forward slowly.

At a fork in the road, he stopped.

left, the way home;

On the right, the road to the next town.

If you go to the right, my sister will definitely be worried when she finds out.

But it's fine if he doesn't know, he knows it now but let it go, it doesn't conform to his previous cognition.

Chu Meng exhaled, Ning Ling sent a letter to Chu Song, and stepped on the right road without hesitation.

At this moment, a man in blue clothes also came to the town where Chu Meng was.

He squatted down to check the monster's wound, and frowned.

This monster is a soldier with a high status in the demon world, and his cultivation base is considered high-strength, but he was killed by a single blow.

It is not common to have such a cultivation level, and the wounds on his body are turned outward and several narrow cracks are split, like a blooming manjusawa.

He has only seen one person use such scars...

Chu Meng inquired about it, but the people in the town were very jealous of it, so he only inquired that the form of death was different. According to their local customs, it should be thrown among the rocks, placed in the sun, and used up. To dispel the bad breath from the corpse.

As soon as Chu Meng heard it, he suddenly remembered that when he took his younger sister to collect folk songs, they were invited by friends to attend a special local funeral.

That is hanging coffin burial.

But the dead man was placed on the top of the mountain with hay bundled under his body, so that everything can return to nature.

Presumably Ah Song went back to check the knowledge in this area, knowing that the bones can also be placed in the rocks, so he conceived such a plot in his mind.

Chu Meng regained his composure, found a vine from one side, tied one side around his waist, and fastened the other side to the tree trunk, enduring the discomfort caused by his fear of heights, and slowly climbed down.

After seeing the corpse, Chu Meng paused for a moment, trying to take out gloves from his pocket and put them on, but all he touched was the jade pendant that Chu Song left for him.

After being stunned for a moment, he slowly came back to his senses.

He sighed softly in his heart: I still feel a little uncomfortable.

Chu Meng grasped the stone on one side tightly, and used his other hand to touch the bones placed in the crevice of the rock.

As described by the previous boss, this corpse is already a withered firewood, and it can be so clean in a short period of time, it should be that the person's soul was directly sucked away when he started.

As the sky darkened, Chu Meng also touched the bones of all the tragic dead.

He jumped up and removed the vines around his waist.

There are both men and women in the bones, and they have different ages and family conditions.On the surface, the skeletons had nothing in common, but they had stab marks on the femurs of the upper thighs, close to the pelvis.

Although the relationship between men and women in this world is set as open as it is in modern times, clothes and the like still follow the ancient times, with long clothes and trousers.

If such a private place is stabbed, it is possible to go to the toilet, but the toilet will not be on the inside, and only when doing that kind of thing can it be possible to stab this part.

After thinking about it, Chu Meng took out the clothes from the spirit bag, but the clothes inside were mostly plain and clean. Chu Meng originally had a serious face, and with this kind of plain clothes such as stealing blue moon white, it was even more unsightly. It is a person who goes to find flowers and ask willows.

Just when Chu Meng was thinking about buying another set of clothes, a brocade box accidentally touched his hand, rolled down a few times and opened it quickly.

Chu Meng: ...

Fingerprint unlock?

Can't wait for Chu Meng to look back at the modern times in his mind, and see a spiritual light popping out from the brocade box, slowly coming to Xiang Meng.

Seeing this red aura lingering, Chu Meng immediately understood that it was another fingerprint unlock.

He just stretched out his hand to touch this light spot, but unexpectedly, this spiritual light spread out suddenly.

Chu Meng subconsciously picked it up, and then the red light unfolded completely in his hands.

Chu Meng looked down—it was a pair of red clothes.

A palpitation spread throughout Chu Meng's body.

……

After Chu Meng endured the discomfort, he looked through carefully and found that the two red clothes were of different sizes, one was larger and the other was smaller.

There were no patterns on the two clothes, so Chu Meng thought they were just ordinary red clothes.

He took the small one, put it on and found it just right.

So after putting the big red dress back into the brocade box, Chu Meng walked slowly towards Hualiu Lane here.

It's a pity that Chu Meng came at a very unfortunate time, and this day happened to be the day when the Nuo Festival was held in the town.

In order to get rid of the filth, all men, women and children in the town went out and walked on the street.

Looking up, the winding streets and alleys are covered with intricate red silk.

The priests and the others walked on the red silk, and sprinkled flower petals stained with stream water downwards, which meant to pray for blessings and eliminate evil spirits.

However, in general, large-scale festivals like this, which are shared by both men and women, will also bring a little thought of looking for a spouse.

Priests usually wear masks, so those who are not thinking about Fengyue can wear the mask of Nuo Sacrifice together with the priest, while those who are interested in Fengyue only need to put a red handkerchief on their cuffs, and exchange with each other when they meet Red handkerchief, I will learn more about it the next day.

Chu Meng's skin is very good, not only girls look at it hand in hand, but also some men boldly step forward to court|love.

Chu Meng was taken aback, and immediately bought a mask to put on, and heaved a sigh of relief by using the crowd to get rid of the unwilling people.

When Chu Meng came to the bridge, he looked up, and the priest had already walked on it, dancing and shedding flower petals.

A lot of people wanted to snatch the petals, so they pushed each other, and it happened that Chu Meng was by the bridge again, one crowded, the other staggered, Chu Meng's foot was unstable, and he fell down.

On the way down, Chu Meng caught a glimpse of the lantern in the river, and suddenly thought of a sentence: "Master, I want these firefly lotuses to light your way home."

Chu Meng unconsciously frowned slightly, thinking: Master?disciple?Is this my memory?But Ah Song didn't tell me that I had accepted a disciple in this world?

These memories and thoughts are but a moment.

Just when Chu Meng was ready to fall into the water, he jumped down and caught Chu Meng with one hand.

Chu Meng grabbed subconsciously, and quickly grabbed a blue rose from the man's neckline.

But his gaze was not on the rare blue rose at this time, but on the man's face.

Chu Meng's pupils trembled.

I don't know how to describe the man's face, it looks like frost, but it is like peach blossoms in March, and there is deep affection buried in the ashes.

At the same time astonishing, he felt very familiar with this person.

Sensing the landing, Chu Meng hastily withdrew from the man's stiff embrace.

He took off his mask, bowed to him and said, "Meng from the next place, thank you brother for saving me."

The emotion in the man's eyes exploded instantly.

Like excited, like timid.

He took a step forward, and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to touch Chu Meng's face, but he stopped his steps under Chu Meng's suspicious eyes.

Seeing this, Chu Meng asked again: "Excuse me... did you know me before?"

The man's Adam's apple kept rolling, and after a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "My brother once had a similar face to an old friend of mine, so I was rude, I hope my brother is no wonder."

After finishing speaking, he saluted as well, and said again: "Juanshu next time."

As soon as Chu Meng heard it, he knew it was the man's word.

In this way, Chu Meng knew that he must have had a past with him, otherwise he would not lose his composure, let alone express his words directly.

But obviously the other party will not mention the past, Chu Meng can't rush to ask.

He said: "Brother Juanshu is also a practitioner, why did he come here?"

Ning Jie suppressed all his emotions, and replied softly: "I heard that there is a demon in Chen Zhen, so I came here to get rid of the demon. Ah... Ah Meng also came to get rid of the demon."

Chu Meng nodded: "I heard that there is something wrong with Chen Zhen, so I came here to check."

Ning Jie smiled lightly, and said: "Since Ameng is also here to eliminate demons and defend the Tao, it is better to go with Juanshu, so that we can take care of each other."

Seeing Ning Jie laughing, Chu Meng suddenly felt a dull pain in his chest.

He originally thought that the dull pain would disappear soon, but when he looked at Ning Jie smiling, the dull pain in his heart became even worse.

Chu Meng turned his eyes slightly, thinking: Why did he show such a frivolous smile when we first met, could it be that he is a king of the sea?

Chu Meng didn't realize that at this moment, he didn't have the frightened, awkward and uncomfortable emotions hinted by the man before.

However, Chu Meng did not refuse Ning Jie's proposal.

He had just woken up for less than half a year, and although his internal cultivation was profound, he had not fully mastered these methods, and he would inevitably fall into a disadvantage when facing the Demon Cultivator.

Moreover, he wanted to find out if the man with the word Juan Shu had some kind of relationship with his past.

Chu Meng obviously felt that Xiang Xiang had many things hidden from him.

He was not interested in the past before, but now seeing this strange and familiar man without mentioning the past made him a little more curious.

After Ning Jie saw that Chu Meng agreed, he felt rather complicated.

He noticed something strange in the hairpin half a year ago, and searched with spiritual power, and found that the strange place was in the north, but someone was obstructing it, so he couldn't determine the exact location.

In the past few days, the hairpin has changed again, and I heard that the monsters are constantly invading here, so I came here half-excited and half-disappointed.Then I saw the corpse of a monster.

Seeing Manzhu Shahua's wound, Ning Jie's cold heart warmed up again - this kind of fighting method was taught by Master Fu Song.

I didn't expect... I didn't expect to meet Master!

Ning Jie was pleasantly surprised to find what he had lost, but he also began to feel timid.

——I am most afraid of losing a second time after regaining it.

What's more, Master has lost his previous memory.

Although Ning Jie could have expected that Fu Song would definitely erase Master's past memories, but it was one thing to predict it, but another thing to actually face it...

Ning Jie reluctantly suppressed his complicated emotions, pulled himself together and asked, "Does Ameng have a place to live?"

Chu Meng was embarrassed for a while.

When he came to Chen Town, he went directly to the cliff to touch the bones. After dark, he came directly to the town. He thought he could catch Moxiu on the spot, but he didn't expect to meet the Nuo Festival and broke the plan.

Ning Jie saw that Chu Meng's eyelashes trembled slightly, so how could he not know what he was thinking.

He took a step forward, looked at Chu Meng and said softly: "I have booked two rooms in the inn, why don't Ameng go to my place to be wronged for a night?"

Chu Meng originally wanted to ask why you booked two rooms, but he looked up at Ning Jie's expectant gaze, his voice changed, and he said softly, "I'm bothering Brother Juanshu."

After the words fell, Chu Meng was slightly startled.

...Why... just agreed?

Chu Meng quickly lowered his eyes to hide his slightly hot face, and at the same time tightly clenched his hands hidden in his cuffs.

Ning Jie helped him out and said, "Ameng, come with me."

When they arrived at the inn, Ning Jie handed the key to Chu Meng.

Chu Meng took out the spirit stones and said: "Although it was brother Juanshu's kindness, but the so-called brothers still need to settle accounts clearly, I accept the kindness, these spirit stones are also hoped that brother Juanshu will not refuse."

Ning Jie knew that Chu Meng didn't want to owe others, so he accepted the Lingshi according to his wishes.

Silence for a while.

Ning Jie rolled his arms again and said with a light smile: "Juan Shu won't disturb Ah Meng's rest, I hope Ah Meng can sleep well." Then he bowed to Chu Meng.

Chu Meng quickly returned the gift.

After the ceremony, Ning Jie turned around and entered the next room.

Chu Meng closed the door, remained silent for a moment, and said, "Good night."

After arriving in his room, Ning Jie calmed down, took out the water mirror, and poured some spiritual power into it.

Soon, the faces of Chu Xin and Zhi Ru appeared in the mirror.

Chu Xin was surprised and said: "You actually took the initiative to find us?!"

Zhi Ru also raised her brows in surprise, but seeing Ning Jie's complex expression, she knew it.

"Have you found someone?" he asked.

Ning Jie nodded: "Well, I found it. However, he has no memory of the past."

Chu Xin opened his eyes wide at first, he was about to recognize his cousin excitedly, but when he heard that Mi Chen had no memory, it was like a pot of cold water was poured down, directly extinguishing Chu Xin's emotions.

Zhi Ru asked: "He has no memory, but you have all the memories between you. What, you want to coward again?"

Ning Jie pursed his lips and said sincerely, "I don't know."

Ning Jie really didn't know what to do.

Obviously, they have communicated with each other, but the other party has lost the memory of the past and started a new life again.

And it's not that he didn't see the guard in his master's eyes.

He... really didn't know what to do.

Zhi Ru continued to ask, "Then what are you going to do?"

Ning Jie replied, "Stay by his side."

Although a little at a loss, Ning Jie also knew what he wanted.

It's impossible to let him go.

Zhi Ru sneered: "Then wait for him to recover his memory?"

I thought this infatuated species would either keep silent and acquiesce, or nod his head clearly.

Unexpectedly, Ning Jie shook his head.

Ning Jie said: "If he doesn't care that the Taoist partner is a man, I will not give him up to anyone. If he..." Ning Jie lowered his eyes, "I will return to the position of master and apprentice or friend to protect him lifetime."

Both Chu Xin and Zhi Ru fell silent.

If the two have experienced life and death, and the ending is the last one, it is really sad.

Seeing that the two were in a heavy mood, Ning Jie comforted them and said, "You know me, what I want is my master's raised eyebrows, that's all."

Chu Xin said sadly: "But before Qingfeng..."

Ning Jie shook his head lightly, "Everything is in the past, and it is no longer important now."

The important thing is - now and in the future, he is by my side, and I will be lucky enough to accompany him for another ride.

As for the method and the final outcome, that really doesn't matter.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Ning Jie has always booked two rooms, as if Ah Chen is still there.

There should have been such a paragraph——Zhi Rudao: "I never thought that you have been booking two rooms, and it will come in handy in the end, and you will keep someone."

Ning Jie responded softly and said, "He's always been there."
