Chapter 22 Expectation

People spend their entire lives making choices, sometimes taking the initiative, and sometimes being passive. As long as they have a breath, they will inevitably make choices.

Zhu Ruowei in the crowd noticed several masters, especially his master's eyes, who were looking at him quietly. Under the slightly hesitant expression, his familiar eyes suddenly looked a little melancholy. He didn't understand, and thought that the other party had thought of something unhappy. After all, when he remembered the past, he was mostly silent. Maybe it was that expression!

Thinking of this, he suddenly smiled and raised his hand and waved it to the other party.

He wanted to make the other person happy, after all, he was a person who watched himself fall asleep on the bedside countless times.

Because he grew up in the mountains since childhood, in his heart, he never thought about the concept of the word mother or the meaning of the word father.

In his life, what does the master look like? What is the former?

Seeing Zhu Ruowei in the crowd waved to this side, He Ming looked at the center of gravity with a different expression. He rarely said nothing, as if he was thinking. Chongming on one side smiled quietly, couldn't help but nod and said, "What a good boy!"

Master Wen saw that the center of gravity was still moving, and saw his disciple waving his hand in the crowd, which made the already abrupt black figure even more eye-catching. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart a kind thought at the beginning of human nature. He said softly, "What should come, I will come eventually! You and I are at this age, Junior Brother of Focus, think twice!"

In fact, as Zhu Ruowei grew up day by day, the center of gravity felt his aging. Although he was lucky enough to come to this treasure land to be irrigated by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, what could he do?

Some things seem to be destined.

He struggled for more than 30 years, but he couldn't even understand the third level of mental methods! And he couldn't let go of his heart that was afraid of loneliness in the cold wind above this lonely peak.

Nothing can be forced. After all, I am indeed a secular person who has no connection with Tao!

At this time, all the remaining disciples noticed the black shadow waving to the masters. For a moment, in front of everyone, they looked very eye-catching. Yuan Suiyun hurriedly grabbed Zhu Ruowei, but it was still a little slower.

As everyone was talking, his clothes became the focus of discussion with He Ming's disciples.

"It's a blessing!"

"Yes, I didn't expect that I would become an eye-catching figure like a leader at a young age, and I could be considered a glamorous person on my face!"

After saying that, the senior brother and the second brother looked at each other and smiled, as if they didn't care what others thought and said.

Unlike the reactions of the two, Zhu Ruowei was first seen by so many eyes and was whispered to each other. He looked at the countless eyes of everyone, and the dozens of mouths opened and closed and seemed to be talking about himself. A sense of inferiority made him silently lower his head, for fear of facing any sword-like gaze again.

Seeing him like this, Yuan Suiyun knew that the other party had few people since he was a child. It was probably the first time facing this scene. Then he put his arms around the other party's neck, patted his chest with a smile and threatened, "You! I've been staying in the old man's center of gravity for a long time every day. It's not like we dealing with a large group of people every day, but don't be afraid, I'm with your elder brother! No matter what they say and what they think, are they still afraid of them?"

When Zhu Ruowei heard the other party’s comfort, he felt warm in his heart, as if a piece of clothing suddenly blocked the sword and sword rain that was about to fall. Looking back at his only good friend, he silently vowed in his heart that he must repay the other party in the future!”

Seeing that the fate Suiyun was like this, the other brothers all looked gentle and nodded, not caring about what the other people thought and said.

At this time, another group of people left with the sound and disappeared southwest. At this time, only He Ming and Ying Xuan's disciples were left on the field. They watched the others on the field leave, only these scattered twenty people were left, and they didn't know what should have happened.

In a blink of an eye, He Ming also came to the disciples. Everyone bowed. He nodded slightly. He looked at everyone, then looked at Zhu Ruowei, who did not belong to them. His eyes moved, but he did not show too much. He waved his hand gently and rose into the air first. He saw a black shadow suddenly jumping out of the sky and swaying in the air. Then he disappeared from the clouds. Seeing the master leaving, the sects followed one after another, either two or three, everyone seemed to be a magic weapon. He really had a Taoist practice and was as free and easy as possible.

Seeing that the senior brothers left, Yuan Suiyun was reluctant to leave. After saying goodbye in a hurry, he ran towards the second senior brother. Then the second senior brother summoned his bronze sword, which looked good. Before leaving, the two turned around and waved their hands to signal. Zhu Ruo was very envious of them and nodded slightly.

On the other side, Master Ying Xuan was teaching a lesson for a group of female disciples, his tone was extremely stern, and he only scolded the group of girls, bowing his head and crying and not daring to move.

"Ruowei, let's go back!"

A voice pulled Zhu Ruowei's eyes back. He turned around and saw the master who had already walked to the front of him. He was kind-hearted and was looking at him quietly.

Zhu Ruowei nodded slightly and stopped caring about other things. The two of them quietly embarked on the road back.

The mountain road is long and I walk very slowly, but the time I go back is short. Because both of them have some things in their hearts, they speak a lot less. Most of the time, they just silently look at the road beneath their feet without saying a word.

After dinner in the evening, the focus was on seeing that the other party was worried. Thinking about the boy in the crowd today, he looked at his simple and desolate hut again, and he couldn't help but feel melancholy and hesitate.

Under the light, the appearance of the center of gravity was much older, and the wrinkles on the forehead were stirred back and forth by the beating lights. It seemed that he noticed that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Zhu Ruowei looked at the old man who had taken care of him for many years.

"master!"

"…Um?"

The other party didn't say anything, but the center of gravity saw something and spoke up, "Ruowei!"

"Um!"

The dim candlelight shook, and the cool breeze outside the window whistled, slapped the window and clattered. The center of gravity looked at the window that could not help but run over, but a figure ran over, then closed it gently, and sat next to him. It was very quiet.

"If so!"

"Um!"

Zhu Ruowei looked at the other party, as if waiting for the other party to say something next.

"Are you participating in this Wuzi Najia?"

"I... dare not!"

The other party looked at the weak and beating wick in silence, and he told the other party

"You go and pluck that wick!"

The other party left in response, and the light became much brighter with Zhu Ruowei's hand movements. Compared with the weakness just now, it was a world of difference.

"Did you listen to the master?"

The other party nodded.

"Then you go to participate in this Five Sons' A. It's best to compete for a result and come back!"

Zhu Ruowei's eyes turned straight when he heard this. This was the first time since he grew up that he had heard the center of gravity make demands on him. Even if he practiced the mind method before, the other party followed his temperament. When he remembered it, he asked himself to see the practice, but he never deliberately said anything and asked what he asked for, and never took himself as strict as the disciples of other masters. It is precisely because of this that Yuan Suiyun showed an envious look every time he chatted with him.

He didn't understand what was wrong.

"Master, why do you suddenly want me to compete for a ranking?"

The center of gravity quietly looked at the rising wick and pondered for a moment. He remembered Chongming's words today and said Zhu Ruowei. Then he sighed softly

"When I was young, I used Yang Xian from Tianjian Mountain as a model to imagine using swords to eliminate demons and become a respected existence for thousands of people. Unfortunately, my qualifications are mediocre and eventually become false. But you are different!"

At this point, my eyes were quietly staring at Zhu Ruowei, and then I began to say

"I have seen many possibilities in you, and even my senior brother Chongming looked at you with special eyes. I am already a useless person, suffering from the warmth and coldness of the world, but I don't want you to be like me, spend your whole life, relying on others' breath and looking at others' faces. If possible, try to be an existence that attracts thousands of people."

"But, I'm afraid I'm not qualified enough, so I can't compete with other brothers!"

Although Zhu Ruowei was determined to fulfill his master's wish, he still felt deeply insignificant when he saw those seniors with weapons and those who could leave with swords freely.

Looking at the other party's sincere answer, the faint light moved a few times in those sincere eyes. Each of them was deeply rooted in his old heart, and he blamed himself among the wrinkles between the Yintang. But he didn't say anything, but just stood up gently and breathed a long sigh. Then he said lightly

"Go to sleep!"

After saying that, he walked towards the bed.

The wind was raging outside the house, and the house was extremely quiet. Zhu Ruowei sat quietly, so he couldn't sleep.

But the night is quiet and long.
