Chapter 25 No more coming!
Following Xu Xian around his sect, Ye Wen felt very strange, as if the person in front of him was the master here.
Especially when walking, Ye Wen found that Xu Xian had a very good understanding of the surrounding environment and often noticed some details that even Ye Wen did not notice.
For example, following Xu Xian in the dark, Ye Wen couldn't see the ground environment clearly, and sometimes Xu Xian would suddenly move one step or take a big step forward. At first, he was still wondering, thinking that Xu Xian's light skills were like this, but soon he realized that it was not the case at all - because he almost sprained his ankle with one foot.
Ye Wen is not surprised that he is not familiar with his own territory. Although he has been living in the mountains for the past six months, his range of activities has been limited to a very small area, so he has a lot of unknowns about the places he has spent a lot of money to rush into.
What's more, these are very subtle places, and some places are covered by weeds, and they can't see anything strange on the surface. However, Xu Xian seemed to be very familiar with these things and could always get around them. Until later, Ye Wen followed Xu Xian, and he followed him as he did whatever he left.
The two of them were about to walk to the edge of the cliff. The mountain was steep and a rare cliff on Shushan. If you want to go up the mountain from here, you will naturally not build any high walls. What's more, the scenery here is really good. If you have nothing to do, you will feel a sense of pride of standing at the peak. In addition, you can also see Shushan County in the distance, but it can only be seen clearly during the day.
Xu Xian walked here, but did not go to the other side of the mountain wall. Instead, he walked to an inconspicuous mound, knelt on the ground, respectfully kowtowed to the mud, and then knelt quietly for a while before standing up. While cleaning the dust on his legs, he smiled and said to Ye Wen: "I'm afraid Master Ye has many questions, right?"
Ye Wen didn't answer, just looked at Xu Xian. He had already guessed some general situation after following Xu Xian during this period. After seeing Xu Xian kneeling and kowtowing to a rust, the thought in his head became clearer. At the same time, he also guessed what the rust was - it was clearly a grave.
In Ye Wen's opinion, Xu Xian, a famous talented man, probably had been here a long time ago. He also came here often, otherwise he would not have been so clear about those subtle places. In addition, this guy must have had some adventures on this mountain, maybe he found some secrets, or maybe he had met a master.
Ye Wen prefers the latter two possibilities. He even speculated that Xu Xian had met a dying master, and then learned a lot of kung fu under the master's teaching. Later, the master passed away and Xu Xian buried the master on this mountain.
If this is the case, it is not difficult to explain why Xu Xian wanted to come up and take a look after learning where his mountain gate was. Even Ye Wen guessed that Xu Xian must have known that the mountain gate of the Shushan School was here for a long time, and he may not even know how many times he had come up in the past six months. It was just surrounded by his high walls, so Mr. Xu could only sigh.
"Maybe, this guy has scolded me secretly for a long time! No wonder this guy was so excited when he saw me. It turned out that he had caught the master!"
The actual situation is similar to what Ye Wen guessed. Since Xu Xian discovered that a Shushan Sect appeared here, he was very curious and had some intention of making friends at that time. It was just that he had martial arts and talented identities and was not easy to reveal, so he never visited the door openly.
Xu Xian looked at Ye Wen steadily, and when he saw the young leader, he didn't look anxious at all. At the same time, the trace of disbelief revealed in his eyes made him understand: "President Ye has guessed it!"
Ye Wen shrugged, although this action was not obvious in the dark: "Just guess it casually, I still don't know if it's really like this!"
Xu Xian nodded, and then slowly said: "A few years ago, I was still an ordinary scholar. Although I was famous, I always felt that life was boring, so I would always find ways to secretly go out and find something fun."
"That day, I was bored and wanted to go up the mountain to watch the sunrise, so I took advantage of my father's work to go out and brought dry food and water to Shushan. But I didn't expect that that day completely changed my life..."
"I met an old man, an old man who was dying, but I didn't know at that time! He was not good to me, and at the least he cursed, and at the worst he could hit him. But at that time I saw him pitiful, so I didn't care about him, and even gave him some dry food and water!"
"This old man is much more reasonable than I thought!" Xu Xian smiled, as if he had thought of something interesting. Ye Wen did not disturb him, and still listened quietly to his words.
"After I gave him dry food, the old man suddenly said, 'I will be rewarded with favors. The old man has nothing good to do. If you are too weak, I will teach you some ways to strengthen your body'."
"This teaching lasted for a month. During that month, I would sneak out of my house every day, and buy enough food to send it to the old man to the mountain. He would teach me something. At first, it was just a few simple airs, but later he said, "You are so troublesome to go back and forth every day, I will teach you a set of light skills first!" My light skills were the ones I started to enter at that time!"
Ye Wen was also happy when he heard this. He didn't expect Xu Xian's light skills to be so good. It turned out that it was because of this reason. It was actually for the convenience of escaping home and going up and down the mountain.
Xu Xian seemed to think that this reason was really not very nice. After being a little embarrassed, he continued to say: "In the last period of that month, the old man suddenly became irritable. Not only did he teach me a lot of things, but he also forced me to write down all of them, even if he didn't understand them, he had to memorize them all."
"A month later, I realized that the old man realized that his deadline was approaching, so he wanted to teach me something as much as possible. Unfortunately, I didn't understand his kindness at that time, and I was full of resentment towards the old man, thinking that I had to be beaten and scolded by him when I gave him food. I was really the number one stupid person in the world!"
"I didn't come to see the old man again in the next three days. When I wanted to come up and take a look three days later, I only saw the old man's last glance."
Xu Xian looked at the inconspicuous landslide: "He looked very pleased at that time, and just said, "You are here!" and there was no sound. I didn't even know what his surname was. In the end, I couldn't even put a tombstone on him!"
Ye Wen didn't say anything, he couldn't comment on such things at all.
Xu Xian saved the old man's life. It was a matter of no need for both of them to teach Xu Xian's kung fu. If it weren't for the last period of time when the two of them were together, the old man was crazy and wanted to teach Xu Xian more things, just as if he wanted to pass on everything he had to Xu Xian, which made Xu Xian feel like he was a disciple, but at this time the old man left the world, as if nothing had happened. The impression left by this strong contrast was too strong. Otherwise, this incident would be at most a behind-the-scenes scene in Xu Xian's life.
"Later, I often came here to practice the kung fu taught by the old man, and gradually became interested in martial arts. Unfortunately, I didn't learn enough at that time, and I could only practice secretly by myself, and there was no one to guide me. So, except for the light qi that was convenient for sneaking out of my home, I was slow to enter the palm technique and internal skills. If I used the old man's words to evaluate me now, I would be a barely in the world of martial arts!"
Xu Xian laughed at himself: "I'm still called a talented man, so I only learned the basics when I teach you so hard!"
Then Xu Xian fell into his memories and stood there quietly looking at the lonely grave, as if only he was left in the world and the world in front of him.
Ye Wen, who was standing aside, didn't care about the other party's behavior. Since he had learned that the other party was determined to come to pay tribute to his "master" and did not want to have any bad thoughts about his Shushan Sect, then there was no need for him to be wary of the person in front of him.
He even considered whether to go back to bed first, so that Xu Xian would slowly pay tribute to his "master" here.
Fortunately, Xu Xian quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Master Ye is laughing!"
"No, I just didn't expect that there was a 'old friend' on Shushan Mountain." He really didn't expect that there was a grave here, and he had a big wall to encircle the territory of the Shushan Sect. "In the future, Mr. Xu wanted to 'visit' his old friend's place, even if he came, the gate of the Shushan Sect was always open to the young master!" This matter was always a casual enclosure for him, so Ye Wen quickly sold the other party.
But tonight seemed to be a night of frequent accidents. Perhaps it was because Xu Xian was intoxicated by the memories that made him look dazed and he didn't pay attention. He said casually: "Maybe I will never come again in the future!"
As soon as this statement was made, Xu Xian and Ye Wen were both shocked on the spot. After Xu Xian realized what he said, he looked regretful and secretly hated that he was so careless.
When I saw Ye Wen's expression in a blink of an eye, I knew that Ye Wen must have heard the words clearly. And with Ye Wen's talent, I thought I had already guessed a lot of things.
In fact, Ye Wen did infer a lot of things.
"What does it mean? I will never come again?" If Xu Xian goes to study in another place, or even becomes an official in high school, he will never go home once. No matter what, there is still time to go up the mountain to visit him when he goes home. In this case, there is only one possibility, and Xu Xian will never be prepared to return to his hometown again!
Ye Wen's thinking was very divergent. At this time, he suddenly thought of the various difficulties he had to face during this trip to the south, especially the damn female robber threatened to capture Xu Xian and go up the mountain. Could it be that there was any connection? In this regard, he became more and more sure of his judgment in Xu Xian's increasingly unsightly face.
