Chapter 240: Autumn Rising, Autumn Falling
There is no Changting Ancient Road, nor does it mean the smoke and willows and breeze. Some of them are just one person who stayed yesterday, and the other person rushed towards tomorrow.
As for Chen Kuan, if you go far, it is no longer something you can't accept. But for Lin Wanzhao, separation means endless longing.
Early in the morning, outside Lingshan City.
Lin Wanzhao still insisted on sending Chen Kuan away. Accompanied by Lin Chongshan and Lianxue, Chen Kuan and the three of them were separated at the ferry outside Lingshan City.
They came and went, and Chen Kuang remembered the past that was not considered a distinction. They had set off here, but now they separated from here, and everything was like yesterday.
The difference between them that knows will actually be less painful than waiting. Chen Kuang stayed in Lingshan City for two nights, and the two of them had already said a lot to each other.
Outside the ferry, Lin Chongshan pulled Lian Xue back and waited, deliberately freeing up the last single space for the two of them.
Lin Wanzhao was very calm. She carefully stroked Chen Kuan's clothes and kept talking about things on the way forward.
Chen Kuang stood quietly until Lin Wanzhao finished doing everything. Chen Kuang gently hugged her and kissed her forehead. There was no need for more love words between the two to explain each other's love, which was enough.
After a while, Chen Kuang let go of Lin Wanzhao and turned over to the horse.
He sat at the horse and looked at Lin Wanzhao and slowly said, "I'm leaving and take good care of myself."
Lin Wanzhao stood there and waved goodbye. She watched Chen Kuan disappear into the distance, and tears finally emerged.
It is impossible to say that you are not sad. Even if you are clear or clear, you will eventually resist the tide of longing.
Lianxue came over and hugged Lin Wanzhao gently and comforted him: "Miss, it's okay, Lianxue is with you."
Lin Chongshan looked at his lady and then at the figure that was already invisible. It seemed that everything was similar, always like this.
Chen Kuang rode his horse and whipped it, and he never turned around to see the cold and lonely figure.
It’s not that I don’t want to, but that I can’t.
The girl's eyes were like picturesque, her eyes were filled with autumn water, and her reflections were all about him. He was afraid that he would never be willing to leave after taking a look.
No matter how far you go and know more, you still don’t want to say goodbye to the person you love, but you often have to do so.
Chen Kuang rode the hero gradually and moved farther away in the morning mist. He didn't know how long he had passed, but he looked back at the long-lost Lingshan City, which was also the familiar mountains and wilderness, but he didn't know when he would meet it next time.
Chen Kuang kept rushing on the road back until five days later, when Chen Kuang, who was walking on the starry night, finally saw the tall walls of Qiuluo City.
On the way before, Chen Kuang passed by the mountain tea stall again.
Neither the guy nor the shopkeeper changed, but he didn't recognize that Chen Kuan was the young man who gave a penny a long time ago.
Chen Kuang still ordered half a pound of beef and didn't ask for wine, because there was still a lot of Pingshan wine in Hulu.
After a simple rest and dinner, Chen Kuang made up for the penny he had given last time when he paid.
The young guy counted the extra penny, but after some trouble, he finally didn't get enough of his personal pocket and told the shopkeeper.
A good fate that is not good and good, only then can it be considered as a result.
———
Xiang'er has been staying in Wujiu Inn since she arrived in Qiuluo City. Now she has a good relationship with Shi Yu.
The white-haired old man Shi Yu, who didn't look kind at all, called him his master, and seemed to be Brother Chen's uncle.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, but Xiang'er kept calling him the old white-haired man.
Han Zhongjing didn't care about this, because if she really counted by age, Xiang'er would be much older than him.
The business of Wujiu Inn is still as deserted as ever, and it will be lively to have a wave of customers a day.
Han Zhongjing had nothing to do on weekdays, and his most common thing was to take a nap on the cabinet and drink. When the rain was still as usual, he practiced his skills and learned medical skills every day.
Xiang'er is as leisurely as Han Zhongjing on weekdays. Later, she learned to learn herbs with Shi Yu and learn medical skills.
Xiang'er, who was born in the sword spirit, learned very quickly and had a good appearance.
At this time in the evening, Xiang'er and Shi Yu, who had nothing to do, sat in front of the door and watched the children who returned from school play. The children were very close to Shi Yu and were also very friendly to the newly emerging Xiang'er.
Since Xiang'er broke through to the transformation realm, Shi Yu often asked Xiang'er for questions about cultivation. The two of them were together every day and had a very good relationship.
Xiang'er sat on the threshold, stood on her chin and said boredly: "Sister Shi Yu, when will Brother Chen come back to see us? Didn't that Sister Dugu say that Brother Chen has left Kangzhucheng safely? Why haven't he come back after so long? You can't forget us."
Because Xiang'er recognizes the master Chen Kuang and is in touch with Chen Kuang, she has a natural dependence on Chen Kuang. It is common for the two to discuss Chen Kuang every day.
After Xiang'er finished speaking, Shi Yu smiled and said, "Kangzhu City is very far from our Qiuluo City, and Brother Shen's journey back may not be smooth."
Xiang'er nodded after hearing this and smiled, "Brother Chen would be surprised if he knew that I had broken the mirror."
Shi Yu smiled and said, "Our Xiang'er is very powerful."
Han Zhongjing leaned against the counter and stroked his drooping white hair and said in a disgusting way: "That brat might have gone to see a girl. He has many confidants, including the legitimate daughter of Louwailou, the seventh girl from Dugu's family, and the Su Yao who had already gone to Nanliang. He has a lot of luck in love with her."
Shi Yu and Xiang'er didn't know about Su Yao's later events, and Han Zhongjing didn't tell them either.
After Han Zhongjing finished speaking with a smile, Shi Yu and Xiang'er turned their heads and looked over.
Xiang'er said angrily: "Old man, why do you always slander Brother Chen? Why do you say he is also your nephew?"
It’s okay if you don’t mention your junior nephew, but when you talk about this, Han Zhongjing was so angry. Han Zhongjing twitched his lips and said, “Slander? I need to slander that brat? What’s wrong with what I said?”
Xiang'er, who is still a child, knows little about men and women, but she knows that Sister Yu will be unhappy when the old man says this, so she says something to stop her.
Xiang'er had nothing to say to refute, just hummed.
Han Zhongjing calmed down, walked out of the counter with a smile, and sat on the threshold, like an old child.
Xiang'er leaned over to Han Zhongjing and smiled, "Old man, you are so powerful, tell me when will Brother Chen come back to see us?"
Han Zhongjing closed his eyes deeply when he heard this. He raised his palm lightly and then tweaked his thumb back and forth on the other four fingers, making him look like a fortune teller.
Xiang'er actually knew that he was cheating, but she still cooperated and asked: "How is it? Did you calculate it?"
Han Zhongjing opened his eyes and smiled confidently, "It's coming soon, it's coming soon."
It's still an eternal old sentence, without even changing the words.
Xiang'er is boring
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
He cut it and said, "Old man, can you change your way if you lied to others?"
Han Zhongjing slapped Xiang'er's head in anger: "You still ask if I know I'm lying to you or if you are making fun of me."
Xiang'er covered her head and smiled angrily. She stood up and joined the children playing at the door.
Shi Yu looked up at the sun about to set in the west, feeling that there should be no more guests coming to visit today.
At this evening, most of the vendors on the street were preparing to leave the city and go home. Because there were a lot of people walking there before, there were not many people on the street now.
Shi Yu saw a figure leading a dark horse slowly walking towards this side on the street to the west from afar.
Because he was far away, Shi Yu couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, and just smiled and said, "Master, do you think that man would stay in our inn?"
Han Zhongjing also looked from afar when he heard this. He was originally indifferent to it. When he saw the figure that was getting closer, he suddenly widened his eyes in surprise, thinking that he had read it wrong.
Seeing the strange appearance of the master, Shi Yu asked curiously: "Master, what's wrong?"
Han Zhongjing said: "Master, please take a closer look if you are dazzled?"
Shi Yu became more and more surprised when he heard this: "Master, do you know that person?"
Han Zhongjing, who looked carefully again, was sure that he was not wrong, so he smiled and said, "It's not just about knowing, but you can't know anyone who knows it anymore. And you know Shi Yu, too?"
"I know each other, too?" Shi Yu said strangely.
She poked her head slightly and tried her best to see the man's appearance clearly, but she could only vaguely see the man's outline, holding a horse-carrying sword, and wearing a blue shirt.
Shi Yu recalled in his mind that there seemed to be no such person in his impression.
"Master, why don't I have any impression of it?" Shi Yu asked.
Han Zhongjing rolled his eyes and said, "You will know in a while."
The curious Shi Yu's eyes were on the figure and never left. The young man in the green shirt was getting closer and closer until Shi Yu saw his face clearly.
Shi Yu widened her eyes incredibly. She turned to look at Han Zhongjing. Han Zhongjing had expected it and nodded.
"Master, it's really Brother Shen!"
Han Zhongjing looked at Shi Yu who was overjoyed and smiled, "It's that little brat."
Xiang'er, who was playing with the children, turned her head and saw that Sister Shi Yu was extremely happy. She said unexpectedly: "Sister Shi Yu, is there anything happy about it?"
Shi Yu did not speak but pointed at the streets to the west.
Seeing this, Xiang'er turned around and looked at it. The man and horse were particularly eye-catching at this moment.
"It's Brother Shen, it's really Brother Shen." Xiang'er said in surprise.
The wineless sign was already in front of me, and Shen Kuang also saw Xiang'er on the street, Shi Yu and Uncle Han at the door.
Memories suddenly emerged, and many feelings filled my heart, and finally turned into a soft call: "Xiang'er, Shi Yu, Uncle Han, I'm back."
After this farewell, when I see you again, I feel more at ease than happiness.
When I saw Wujiu Inn, Shi Yu, Xiang'er and Uncle Han, Shen Kuan really went home. Such peace could not be given to anyone except here and Hongni Lane.
Xiang'er and Shi Yu had already run to Shen Kuang excitedly. Han Zhongjing stood at the door of Wujiu and looked at the three of them. I remember that she was also very energetic back then. Moreover, looking at that brat like this is not that annoying.
