Chapter 279 I'm thinking, why is my apprentice so good-looking.
The stars and the moon gradually hung low, swaying the willow trees and making shadows, with a bit of coldness.
Su Bei and Ji Nanjue analyzed it for a while, then looked up at the sky.
Only then did they realize that the three of them had been following the trail of the two men for a long time, and before they knew it, they had reached this moment.
Nan Ji didn't have anything to worry about. After all, she had already reached the state of inedia, but Li Zijun was probably already hungry.
Just as he was thinking about it, he looked in her direction.
Li Zijun stood quietly under the large locust tree with many holes, with two long strands of braided hair hanging on his chest, his hands behind his back, and his eyes were filled with light and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The moon lay lazily in the sky, like broken jade falling down, leaving behind a trail of shadows, all of which fell into the skirt of her body.
Beauty under the moon, pretty ghost.
"Master..."
Li Zijun was listening seriously to Su Bei and Dong Huang's analysis, and took the opportunity to be in a daze. Suddenly, he noticed that their voices seemed to have stopped, and then he raised his head in confusion.
He met Su Bei's eyes.
Under the moonlight, her white hair was scattered, and she was wearing a white shirt embroidered with begonias.
This appearance still affected her soul, but Li Zijun was inexplicably repulsed by the current him. He gently buttoned the skirt with his bare hands, raised his chin, fluttered his eyelashes, and bit his lips and said:
"Master, Zijun...is there something on your face?"
There were still a few rays of the moon in the sky's arms that quietly leaked into her eyes. Her eyes were as bright as a painting, with a hint of timidity.
Su Bei smiled, and then walked to her side. In her doubtful eyes, he said softly:
"Are you hungry?"
Li Zijun was about to say that he was not hungry, but his stomach growled at the right time, and he nodded awkwardly for a moment.
"My teacher is so proud of me that I forgot about you for a while."
"Sorry..."
Su Bei touched her head with his big hand, and then stretched out his hand towards her.
The hem of the white shirt rippled with the night wind, and the sword box on the back flapped slowly, rising and falling with Su Bei's steps.
Li Zijun was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, and subconsciously held his big hand.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Master, I feel that you have been in a bad mood these past few days. Can you talk to Master?"
"..."
Su Bei knelt down and looked at her with a smile.
Seeing Su Bei staring at his chest, Li Zijun's delicate face suddenly turned red, biting his lower lip, and looked in the direction of Ji Nanjue with some guilt.
Ji Nanjue was not what he thought, but was still frowning, thinking that he was still thinking about the problem.
Seeing this scene, Su Bei turned towards Ji Nanjue and said:
"Ji Bao'er, go catch two rabbits."
Ji Nanjue subconsciously agreed, turned around and was about to fly away, when she suddenly reacted, looking at Su Bei with disbelief in her eyes, and questioned:
"You want me to catch rabbits for you?"
The phoenix eyes looked back and forth around the two people with an indescribable meaning.
"Why don't you go by yourself?"
Su Bei was a little embarrassed, but felt that she should be informed of her family status. She coughed heavily and said calmly:
"If you are told to go, just go!"
"You don't even listen to what your husband says?"
Ji Nanjue's eyes narrowed, then nodded and said quietly:
"Don't go to my bed at night."
"..."
Then, in Su Bei's wide eyes, he turned around and left, with a faint smile on his lips.
She also saw the changes in Li Zijun in the past few days, and naturally knew that Su Bei wanted to talk to Li Zijun alone, and the quarrel with him was just to relieve Li Zijun's embarrassment.
The tacit understanding between the two has already gradually penetrated with the blending of yin and yang.
then.
Under the big locust tree, there were only two people left.
Su Bei didn't say anything, just looked at Li Zijun.
Li Zijun couldn't help it anymore and blinked:
"Master...what are you thinking about?"
Facing these gentle eyes, Su Bei instinctively replied:
"I was wondering why my disciple is so good-looking."
He covered his mouth, well, it seemed like he had made a mistake.
——Of course, it’s just pretending.
Li Zijun's cheeks instantly turned red, his bright eyes narrowed into a straight line, and he fanned his hands, staring at the shadows of the two people under the cool moonlight. He didn't know what he thought of, and the corners of his mouth slightly curved.
Maybe, I think too much?
Master is still the same Master and has never changed.
Su Bei simply held her little hand and said softly:
"Let's go for a walk with my teacher..."
Li Zijun naturally knew that Su Bei had just dismissed Donghuang because he wanted to have some separate words with him.
And under the moonlight, this was the first time in this life that I was alone with him. There was only each other in front of me, and all I could see was you and me.
This kind of scene is probably what I have always longed for.
The night wind was a little bit cold, and there was a delicate fragrance in the mountains and forests lingering around the two of them, but the smell was very subtle, as light as cotton wool, vaguely present.
If you catch it with concentration and concentration, it will reveal your spleen and spirit.
Su Bei didn't know whether it was the fragrance in the mountains or the girl he was holding with his right hand.
It's like a sleeve of clouds.
The two just held hands and didn't speak. Li Zijun actually had many words in his heart that he wanted to talk to him, but those words were destined to be buried in his heart.
She believed that her feelings could be conveyed to the depths of his heart, and she wanted to guard him, look at him, and pull him out of the sea of suffering that he had to go all the way.
This is enough.
Li Zijun suddenly said:
"Why does Master suddenly want to accept Zijun as his disciple?"
This is the thing that bothers me the most now.
Su Bei stopped, looked into her eyes, and said seriously:
"Who in the world wouldn't want to accept the daughter of a Confucian sage as a disciple?"
Li Zijun shook his head gently, with a smile on his face, and reached out to touch Su Bei's white hair. The hair was not as silky as he thought, but slightly rough.
"not like this."
"Master, if you don't want to say it, just don't say it, and Zijun won't ask."
"..."
The easy-going and gentleness in Li Zijun's eyes made Su Bei's heart tremble inexplicably, and he felt a little distressed.
He seemed to have seen that kind of ruined scene again, and he couldn't help but feel in a daze. Could such a woman not be able to escape that disaster after all?
Did the other self never save her after all?
Although there was only a small amount of consciousness in that period, Su Bei knew very well that maybe it was a corner of what he would see in the future.
The sky was filled with stars, and Su Bei suddenly held her in his arms.
Li Zijun's body froze for an instant, his mind went blank, and he was at a loss. He just pressed against a warm body and felt his breath.
"My teacher will protect you."
"Protect everyone."
"..."
He lay gently in her ear and talked to her.
Su Bei has gradually begun to speculate in his heart that he wants to complete the regrets left by his 'other self'.
In that future, maybe 'I' also tried my best, but in the end I couldn't stop the closest people around me from leaving me one by one.
Not only Li Zijun, but also himself has to protect Xiao Ruoqing, Mo Li, and Sword Niang.
We must protect Senior Sister, protect Eighth Junior Sister, Ninth Junior Sister, protect...
Li Zijun didn't say anything, just leaned into his arms.
He didn't know what the Master saw at that moment, but presumably he didn't know that the culprit of that disaster was himself.
"Then Master must protect Zijun..."
"Zijun will protect Master's sword."
"..."
She murmured softly.
The two walked out of the whirling pine forest and looked up. The bright moonlight covered the grass with a shallow layer of crystal gauze.
Su Bei randomly found a piece of soft grass and lay down. The moment he touched the ground, he felt coolness and tranquility all over his body, and he couldn't help but stretch his limbs.
Then he patted the grass beside him with his big hand and said:
"Lie down for a while, it's very comfortable."
Li Zijun didn't hesitate, stretched out his shirt, and then stood tightly next to him.
The two heads, one big and one small, were counting the stars.
The stars all over the sky are opening and closing, as if they are connected to the vast galaxy. They are extremely deep, and there is a little cold light in them. From time to time, there are deep whirlpools, pulling people's minds and throbbing slightly.
"Disciple, when my master accepted you as my disciple, why didn't you even think about it?"
"My master's cultivation level is not very high. According to your master's wife, she is far behind, and she doesn't have any particularly outstanding abilities..."
Li Zijun smiled and replied in Su Bei's words:
"Elder Su of the Sword Sect, who in the world wouldn't want to worship him as their master?"
Su Bei was speechless for a moment.
Then he seemed to have thought of something and smiled gently:
"When I accepted your Senior Sister Xiao as my disciple, I once asked her why she wanted to cultivate immortality. When I met her for the first time, I will always remember her eyes."
"Those should be a pair of eyes that are beautiful and kind, but they are filled with hatred. Of course, the hatred is definitely not because of being a teacher... She said that she cultivated immortality for revenge."
"..."
Li Zijun was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something, he tilted his head and looked at Su Bei:
"Master, what kind of person is Senior Sister Xiao Ruoqing?"
Su Bei sat up, played with the grass roots beside him, thought for a moment, and said:
"She is a kind-hearted woman, but she is a little playful. Although she looks very mature, she is actually a child at heart."
"It's interesting to say that when I took her in, your senior sister Xiao caused a lot of trouble for me. She set fire to the ancestral graves in Bujianfeng within a few days of joining."
"Hahaha, I was drunk that time, and I was mumbling something. Master, when will you die?"
"..."
Su Bei seemed to have started chatting, telling Li Zijun with great interest every detail of his relationship with Xiao Ruoqing, but he did not notice that Li Zijun's little hands were tightly holding the skirt, and his eyebrows were constantly frowning.
.
Finally he couldn't help but said:
"Master."
Su Bei looked at her with some confusion and spit out the grass roots in his mouth:
"Um?"
Li Zijun sat up, stabilized his mind, and said with a very solemn expression:
"Master, please stay at Kongchan Lake during these days!!"
"Don't go back to Swordless Peak yet."
"..."
Although Su Bei's few words were not described in detail, Li Zijun's heart was already like a small boat in the sea.
A very shocking thought appeared in her mind.
Senior Sister Xiao may have been reborn like herself!!
If this is the case, Master and Xiao Ruoqing may be in danger if they live together every day.
From the Master's words, Li Zijun could feel that Senior Sister Xiao was probably very resentful towards the Master. It was only because of her own cultivation that she did not attack the Master. If this was the case, then she had handed over to the Master.
A letter of respect...
With this unusual behavior of his, Xiao Ruoqing may have guessed his identity!
Senior Sister Xiao Ruoqing is a woman with a clear distinction between love and hate, especially when it comes to relationships. She loves deeply and hates deeply, but Master is completely unaware of all this and is afraid that he has been kept in the dark.
Maybe it's not just Xiao Ruoqing, but also Mo Li...
While he was thinking, Su Bei's question came to his ears:
"Disciple, what's wrong with you?"
"Why do you tell me not to return to Swordless Peak?"
"..."
Li Zijun opened his lips, then narrowed his eyes and smiled:
"My disciple wants to keep Master at my home for a while longer."
Su Bei thought for a moment and felt that he seemed to have found a reason. It seemed that Li Zijun was leaving home this time to go to the Sword Sect in the East Kingdom.
Naturally, I miss the Confucian saint who is about to part ways. I want to spend more time with the Confucian saint at Kongchan Lake...
"How long can Master stay at Kongchan Lake?"
This is what Li Zijun is most worried about now. Since he has not found a way to deal with the two senior sisters, he is naturally worried about his master.
After all, it is easy to hide from an open gun and hard to prevent a hidden arrow.
Su Bei looked into her eyes. Her sensibleness made him feel distressed. How could he bear to make an appointment with her and let her count the days carefully?
A long sword of farewell?
"Master, stay here until you want to leave!"
Looking at the smile at the corner of Su Bei's mouth, Li Zijun knew that he was wrong, but he never showed it. He pretended to be surprised on his cheeks and smiled at him.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came over, interrupting the conversation between the two.
"Afraid that two rabbits would not be enough to eat, I also caught a wild boar."
Ji Nanjue came over dragging a small wild boar with one hand and two rabbits with the other.
He threw the rabbit to the ground.
Then he looked at the grass root in Su Bei's mouth, took it off, and muttered:
"I'm holding grass in my mouth again, and I don't know what to eat..."
Su Bei stood up, picked up Ji Nanjue, and spun him around in circles.
The flowing water is like water, and the white tutu is flying. The small embroidered shoes inlaid with pearls are like the smile on her face, which is particularly bright.
"Why did you hit so many?"
Ji Nanjue pushed away Su Bei's lips that were about to kiss her, and rolled her eyes at him:
"I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat."
Su Bei looked slightly embarrassed and glanced at the wild boar on the ground:
"A pig for a husband?"
Li Zijun, who was sitting on the grass, looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Touching his forehead, he fell softly in the grass. Immediately, he blinked his beautiful big eyes, smiled sweetly at Ji Nanjue, stretched out the back of his soft hand, looked at the wild boar and called out:
