Next to the waterfall in the mountain, a huge round stone plate stands on the cliff. The stone surface is engraved with scriptures, but the center of the circle is about 6 feet smooth and free of text.

A five or six-year-old child, dressed in a blue and white martial arts uniform, sat cross-legged in the center of the circle with his eyes closed, and the loud splashing sound of the waterfall surrounded him. The child scratched his face and head with his hands from time to time, looking unbearable.

"Zer, it's time to eat!"

Ning Xin carried the basket and approached the round stone, he didn't have to shout, the little junior had surprisingly strong internal strength at such a young age, he could hear him clearly when he muttered softly, let alone a "big event" like eating .

When the senior brother was not close to Jingxin Cliff, Chu Ze sensed him, and he opened his eyes and sat obediently waiting for Ning Xin to call him.At this time, he even jumped up, and in an instant, he raised his small face, wrapped his arms around Ning Xin's waist, and looked at Ning Xin expectantly and obediently.Chu Ze was raised by Ning Xin since he was a child, so it goes without saying that the two have a close relationship. Every time Ning Xin looked at this smiling little fleshy face, his heart seemed to be melted, and he loved it to the extreme.

Ning Xin smiled and scratched Chu Ze's little nose,

"I know all the scriptures that should be recited today."

After hearing this, the smile on Chu Ze's face gradually disappeared, and he hugged Ning Xin coquettishly and shook his head.Ning Xin smiled and sighed, and took out a big white bun from the basket, Chu Ze's eyes lit up immediately, staring at the bun without blinking.

"Ze'er, master, please tell me, if you can't memorize scriptures, I can't give you food."

Hearing the word master, Chu Ze's bright eyes dimmed instantly, and he lowered his head, as if he had lost interest in buns.

"Does Master still remember Ze'er? Why don't you come to see me? The brothers in the pavilion will be punished to Jingxin Cliff to repent. Abandon this, don't even look at me..."

The more Chu Ze spoke, the more sad he became, he forgot all the buns and walked towards the center of Jingxin Cliff dejectedly with his head down.Seeing him like this, Ning Xin felt a pang of sadness in her heart, hurriedly chased him in two or three steps, knelt down and hugged him into her arms, Chu Ze leaned on his senior brother's shoulder, after all, he was a child, tears streaming down his face Lose.

After stroking his back and comforting him for a while, Ning Xin pushed his junior brother away, reached out and wiped away the teardrops on his face,

"Okay, how can a boy cry like this, you must recite the scriptures today, I will go back and tell Master, just beg him to come to see you tomorrow, okay?"

Chu Ze's eyes were red, and his head was dotted like a rattle. He knelt down, touched the basket consciously, took out a big steaming bun, stood in Ning Xin's arms, and gnawed it.Ning Xin laughed and scolded him for being clever, but she really felt sorry for him. At such a young age, his master was very strict with him.I don't know why this time, the master took him to practice martial arts in the back mountain bamboo forest, but when he came back, there was only the master alone, and Chu Ze was directly sent to this deserted and lonely Jingxin Cliff, where he stayed for more than ten days , and had no intention of calling him back.Apart from three meals a day, Ning Xin came to deliver meals, and from time to time she worried that he was not safe, so she always sneaked up to see him from a distance.

After Chu Ze finished eating two buns, he was a little bit unsatisfied. Ning Xin lamented that he has grown up and his appetite has increased.

"Brother will bring you some more food tonight. You must memorize scriptures in the afternoon, but you know?"

Chu Ze nodded, Ning Xin wanted to leave, but Chu Ze grabbed his sleeve,

"Brother, you must tell Master to come see me tomorrow. Has he forgotten me, Ze'er misses him so much..."

Chu Ze's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally the word "miss him" came out. Ning Xin stroked his head, then turned and left.Chu Ze stared at the back of his senior brother leaving, his eyes were full of loneliness,

"Master..."

Ning Xin returned to the pavilion thoughtfully, and stood in front of the master's door, hesitating.Ziya took a breath, walked down from the meditation platform, opened the door and saw his eldest disciple standing in front of the door with a melancholy expression on his face.Ning Xin raised her head to meet her master's indifferent gaze, and was startled.

"Master, Master..."

"What is wandering here."

"Master, I went to see my junior brother today, and my junior brother cried and begged Master to go and see him. Ze'er is still young and ignorant, if he made a mistake, he should be punished. It's just that he has been in Jingxin Cliff for more than ten days. , The mountains are desolate and crowded, there are many winds and beasts, this disciple is really worried, and it is difficult to sleep and eat. So disciple, disciple wants to ask Master to go and see the younger brother tomorrow and bring him back..."

Ning Xin's voice was small, he knew Ziya's temper, and it was impossible to say that he wasn't afraid.

After being quiet for a while, Ning Xin could clearly feel her nervous heartbeat.

"Ning Xin, my teacher taught you that benevolence is indispensable. However, the benevolence of a woman should not be something you should have."

After Ziya finished speaking, he passed Ning Xin, walked through the corridor, and walked out of the courtyard.Only Ning Xin stood there with her head bowed, letting the wind blow.

With his shoes not touching the ground, Ziya shuttled through the mountains and forests with his hands behind his back.The scene when I led Chu Ze to practice that day, even though more than ten days have passed, I still vividly remember it.In order to train Chu Ze's speed of attack, Ziya used the technique of slashing, which caused little Chu Ze to miss the target several times with his sword, and became annoyed for a while.Seeing this, Ziya deliberately used tricks to force him. After a few moves, Ziya was surprised to find that although Chu Ze's moves were still immature, the internal force carried by the sword was getting stronger and stronger.He squinted his eyes and frowned, thought for a while, and then used his internal strength to make a real fight with the child.He never thought that Chu Zexu was pushed to the extreme, and his internal force burst out suddenly. Although it would not hurt Ziya, he could truly feel the power contained in this boy's body. as thick as it can be achieved.However, it should be that Chu Ze is still too young, that mellow internal force is like fireworks that explode, and it will be wiped out in the blink of an eye.As for Chu Ze, he passed out straight and felt hot all over. Ziya was afraid that the people in the pavilion would feel Chu Ze's abnormality, so he took him to Jingxin Cliff to calm the restless Qi in his body.

When Chu Ze woke up, he saw Ziya sitting beside him meditating. After hearing the sound, he opened his eyes and looked down at him. Chu Ze could feel the worry in Master's eyes, but he himself was dizzy and didn't know what happened. What, but the master didn't hit him anymore, Chu Ze secretly laughed, he got up and wanted to take the opportunity to hug Ziya and act like a baby, he had never been intimate with his master before.Unexpectedly, Ziya got up before him, took out a scripture on self-cultivation from his bosom, and ordered him not to go back to the pavilion if he couldn't recite it.With a dumbfounded and sad face, Chu Ze sat cross-legged on the rock, watching his master disappear with a wave of his sleeve.

The memory dissipated, Ziya stopped and sighed.I don't know whether it's joy or sorrow to keep this child, but now he is obedient, but when he grows up and is out of control, he doesn't know if he can follow his own will.Quietly standing by the tree, looking at the small spot in the center of the stone plate in the distance, it seems to be reciting scriptures with eyes closed, but scratching its ears and cheeks from time to time.

Ziya practiced lightness kung fu, and quietly approached the stone plate, with his kung fu, even Ning Xin might not be able to notice it if he is not close to him.But as soon as Ziya reached the edge of the boulder, Chu Ze immediately turned his head and looked over, Ziya frowned slightly in surprise.

"Master!"

Chu Ze saw clearly that the person who came was the Master he was thinking of, and immediately jumped up and ran over. Just as he was about to reach out to hug him, he saw the Master looking at him with a cold face, so he stopped beside him, and retracted his stretch out angrily. hands out.

"Master..."

"Who told you to get up and leave."

"I……"

Chu Ze seemed to have done something wrong, looked up at Master, and quickly lowered his head again.Ziya didn't talk to him anymore, just crossed Jingxin Cliff, walked to the stone wall in front of the waterfall, and stood there quietly.Chu Ze stood behind him alone, looking at the hem of his master's clothes floating in the wind. Even if the master was fierce and indifferent, he was the only person Chu Ze loved, not the only one, and his senior brother.

"No, senior brother and master are different..."

Chu Ze murmured in a low voice without knowing it. Although the sound of the waterfall was loud, Ziya could still hear it a little bit. He looked up at the waterfall that was flying down, and closed his eyes as if he was enjoying it or feeling sad. .
