regardless of frontier

"Senior brother! Come on, don't disappoint my expectations!" Before leaving, the smile on the corner of Luo Qingshuang's mouth was about to go up to the sky, but she still patted Qin Jiu's face heavily while suppressing her smile. Shoulder, put on an expression that I like you.

Qin Jiu knew that Luo Qingshuang just wanted to watch a good show, and didn't really worry about his feelings, so he shook off Luo Qingshuang's hand helplessly, and rubbed his head: "Take care of yourself first, stinking kid."

The adult exam that Luo Qingshuang was going to take was a test with disciples of the same age from many sects. If he did not do well in the exam, he would lose not only his own face, but also the face of his own father and his family's fairy sect.His father had placed high hopes on his third son since he was a child, otherwise he would not have been allowed to leave home for more than ten years to follow Yanlu, a famous teacher who looks like an outsider, just to see his son become a blockbuster .

Therefore, Luo Qingshuang had been worried about this adult exam before, and was threatened by Qin Jiu some time ago to ask his senior brother to help him with this exam, but Qin Jiu knew it very well, even though Luo Qingshuang did Various reasons are quite useless, but he is extremely talented, and he will be able to pass it with a little bit of dialing. Qin Jiu has already told him the method of cultivation, and before that, Qin Jiu has secretly investigated the difficulty of their adult exams and so on. Knowing that Luo Qingshuang will definitely have no problem with this exam, so she let him go home to prepare for the exam with peace of mind.

Seeing the child who grew up with him ride Yujian tremblingly, waved his hand to say goodbye to them, and his figure was getting farther and farther away from them, I have to say, he was really sad.

But after a moment of sadness, he turned his attention to business.

Now, in the whole family, there are only two people left——

While eating, Qin Jiu pretended to be casual and asked a question out of the blue: "Master, who is the person you said you like...?"

Yan Lu's chopsticks paused for a moment. It was an ancient event. Just mentioning it felt like a mountain weighing on his heart, making him almost out of breath. He simply uttered five words: "Don't you know."

Qin Jiu noticed that the master was exhausted when he mentioned that person, and felt uncomfortable, but he continued to ask: "Oh... Then, can I meet him when you are free? If it is not convenient for you, tell me Address, I can secretly take a look at it from a distance, after all, it is your lover, and we apprentices also want to know about our teacher's wife."

Yan Lu paused his hands, closed his eyes and said, "It's not Shimu, and besides, he has been dead for many years."

Although the master's expression at the moment is very sad, but it has to be said that Qin Jiu's mood is soaring because of this, it turns out that he really has a chance!

"Oh..." Qin Jiu tried his best to keep his voice from being less obviously excited, "Then Master, haven't you thought about finding someone else these years? Even widows have the right to remarry after three years of widowhood, right?"

The master stared at the front in ecstasy: "I can't forget it."

I can't forget...

The joy in Qin Jiu's heart sank again.

How do you fight a dead man?From the start, you lose.

Qin Jiu didn't want to ask any more questions about that person, but wanted to express his sadness from another angle. He suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Master, can you tell me about your past?"

Although he was adopted by his master since he was a child, he never knew what his master was like in the past, and he never had the thought to ask. In his opinion, the master is the master, the master who gave him life, kindness and affection , he doesn't need to know so much about the past, he just wants to grasp the future with Master.

However, for the first time now, he wanted to know about Master's past.

"It's a long story..." Yan Lu put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, and covered his eyes with his hand, as if there was some deep pain that made him not want to touch it, "Let's not talk about it."

"But I want to know!"

Yan Lu took away the arm that blocked his eyes, opened his eyes and looked at Qin Jiu's sincere shining eyes, and shook his head sadly: "It's just the life of an ordinary person who can't be more ordinary, you won't be interested."

"No! I am very interested in everything about Master!"

Yan Lu looked sad and shook his head: "Can I not say it?"

"Why? Master, have you ever experienced anything bad in the past?"

"Don't ask first, okay Ajiu?" After finishing speaking, Yan Lu turned around and left the dining table, and walked towards his own room. Qin Jiu got up after him, but saw the master walking straight to the big stone in front of the door. Under the locust tree, he crouched down and curled up into a ball, like a baby returning to its mother's womb.

Qin Jiu knew that he couldn't ask any more questions. Just seeing that person's fragile appearance, he knew that he couldn't ask any more questions.

What has Master experienced in the past?Judging by Master's expression, it seemed to be quite a painful experience, even mentioning it would make him feel painful.

Although it may uncover Master's scars, Qin Jiu is more curious. He wants to know Master's past, wants to share for Master, and wants to be closer to Master's heart.

Knowing from the master is probably useless, so he can only start from the side, at least, if he doesn't mention the scars of the master face to face, but he never knows what relatives and friends the master has, so it may be difficult to start from that angle.

"Master, you never said, where is your hometown?" It seemed that only during meal time did he have the opportunity to say a few words to Master.

Yan Lu didn't raise his head: "You are my home."

... This person always unconsciously says something that pokes his heart, it's really overwhelming.

Because of that sentence, Qin Jiu's hands trembled, but then he calmed down and continued to ask: "Then, where did you come from before you found us?"

"Wandering around, visited every inch of land in this world."

"..."

Qin Jiu still didn't give up: "Then, where were you born, you can always tell me that?"

Yan Lu recalled it carefully, yes, where was he born?

This is not a problem that can't be said, but he really can't remember clearly. He has traveled too much in this life, and he doesn't have any deep memories with his family: "This...can't remember Cleared up..."

"Who can't even remember their hometown?" Qin Jiu felt that the master must be perfunctory, and muttered in a low voice.

Yan Lu smiled and shook his head: "I really can't remember, it was a long time ago, how long have I been away from home."

"Then you remember that person so clearly?"

"He's different..."

He is different.

Qin Jiu stopped breathing and stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

For some reason, Qin Jiu had the feeling that the deeper he understood Master, the farther he would be from Master.

Qin Jiu was a little irritable, and asked another question casually: "Then what does that person look like, do you remember? Does Qingshuang look good?"

As soon as Qin Jiu opened his mouth, he deliberately raised the standard of his imaginary rival to the ceiling. To be honest, he has never seen anyone in his life who can compare with Luo Qingshuang in appearance. It's a pity that this kid is too skinny, if he can't move , can't speak, sitting there looks like a painting, but he was born too lively-forget it, the moving picture is not too ugly, it's just that he is too noisy to make him feel annoying.

As Qin Jiu expected, Master shook his head.

Qin Jiu smiled contentedly, and was about to ridicule it, but Yan Lu said again: "But it's not worse than Qingshuang."

At that moment, Qin Jiu's heart was shattered.The appearance is no worse than Luo Qingshuang, so can he still have fun in this life?

Suddenly, as if playing tricks, Qin Jiu imitated Luo Qingshuang and said something special: "Then...how did that kind of person fall in love with you?"

Luo Qingshuang has always been very puzzled by Qin Jiu's behavior of holding Yan Lu up to the sky. Every time he mentions that Master's mouth is very poisonous, Qin Jiu will force him to change his words every time, but Qin Jiu never thought that he would one day Say this to your master.

The master's expression froze, his eyes gradually lowered, and the two red moles on his temples seemed to dim: "Of course he doesn't like me anymore. A person like me is only worthy of kneeling and looking at him."

What did he hear?That person looks down on Master?Doesn't that mean that this is the master's unrequited love for that person?Doesn't that mean - I still have a role to play!

Although Master is acting very sad now, Qin Jiu's heart is full of uncontrollable joy. He tried his best to keep his face flat, and pretended to say: "What are you talking about? There is no question of whether you are worthy or not. As long as you are loved People are all babies."

Yan Lu was stunned, then looked at Qin Jiu and burst out laughing: "He said similar things to me back then."

Qin Jiu's face immediately turned cold, why did he just remind the master of that person with a casual sentence?Isn't this shooting yourself in the foot?

The rice in the bowl was about to be stirred into a ball by Qin Jiu, and he was very irritable. The more he heard Master mentioning that person, the more he felt that he had no advantage at all.

Sensing Qin Jiu's complexion, thinking that Qin Jiu's words had hurt Qin Jiu, Yan Lu patted Qin Jiu's shoulder again, and said, "Ah Jiu doesn't need to compare with others, you are also very good, that person is not He will serve people so meticulously, don't look at Qingshuang who is used to being served by you so it's fine, when he comes home, he will miss you."

Okay, no matter what Qin Jiu said, it could be related to Luo Qingshuang.

Qin Jiu twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly, Luo Qingshuang's request before he left appeared in his mind, looking at the situation, I'm afraid I can't handle Master at all, Qingshuang...

Two months passed in a blink of an eye. Originally, Luo Qingshuang went home early to save a good time for the two of them, but in the blink of an eye, Qin Jiu wasted all the time. There was no progress between him and Master. .

The master kept his heart closed to him and did not tell him about the past, but only mentioned the dead lover from time to time.

Qin Jiu felt that he was just looking for trouble. It would have been better if he hadn't asked Master if he had a lover at the beginning. Now, he seemed to have planted a thorn in his heart. Whenever he mentioned that person, he felt unhappy, and he was so born that he had a lover. I really mind, I have to mention that person from time to time, and make a comparison with that person. The more the comparison, the more I feel that I am not as good as Master's dream lover, and I am extremely self-abuse.

There were a few times when Qin Jiu wondered if Master made up a random excuse to make him give up, but when he saw the longing on Master's face, he thought it must be so, and that expression couldn't be faked.

Later, Qin Jiu really couldn't hold on to such self-abuse, and didn't bother to ask about those things, and his life returned to the normal before, every day he just ate, practiced and slept, and chatted with the master from time to time, and the chats were all about Luo Qingshuang, that brat, doesn't know if that kid's efficiency in preparing for the exam at home is good.

Qin Jiu suddenly felt that plainness is not bad, at least, it won't always make his heart throbbing...
