Not a Witch

When Lorraine Hill walked out of the aisle, the scene where those voices were located appeared in front of his eyes.

Four people sat on the four sides of the square table, the table in the middle was full of messy dishes, and there were many empty wine bottles under the feet behind them, rolling slightly with the ups and downs of the boat, and occasionally touching Together, make a slight sound.

One of them was Yu Baichou. He held his wine glass and shook his head slightly, as if he was feeling something. Beside him was a strong man in black cloth, whose appearance was somewhat similar to that of Yu Baichou. Looking at the man on the other side, he patted the back occasionally, as if to comfort him.

The comforted man was wearing a blue shirt and a messy towel on his head. Although he was still holding a wine glass, he seemed to be half-drunk and half-awake. The tears on his face were still wet, and he was slurring his words. of verses.

The last person was wearing a red-brown robe, holding a wine jug, pouring wine for the others at the table.There are still some persuasive words in his mouth.

These people are not young, the youngest one seems to be nearly forty, and the older one seems to be fifty or sixty, and white strands can be seen faintly in the hair.

The night was deep, and the surrounding fields were silent, only the occasional cicadas and toads from both sides of the river.Several lanterns were hung beside the wine table, illuminating the people below.

Lorraine Hill walked over slowly, and Yu Baichou also looked up and saw the familiar young lady.

"Is it because you can't sleep at night and wake up?"

"Well, I want to come out for a walk."

"Alright, unfortunately there is no moonlight now. If it was before, it would be a blessing to enjoy the moon." Yu Baichou continued to answer, and then said to the people next to him.

"It's getting late, why don't you come here today."

The others looked at their drunk companions and the cold leftovers on the table, and nodded accordingly.

"Oh, that's fine, let's stop here. I'll help Brother Jin to rest, and I'll trouble Brother Fan to find someone to clean up later."

After speaking, they also got up slowly, staggered towards the aisle, and slowly disappeared into the night around the corner.

Looking at the empty tables and chairs, only Yu Baiqiu was left at this moment, Lorraine Hill said with some embarrassment: "Did I disturb you to drink?"

"Ha, it's all right. It's just that it's getting late, it's time to go." Yu Baichou put down his wine glass and stood up.

The night was far away, with no end in sight, and he put his big rough hands on the railing, looking at the dark distant view of the river after the boat.

"A hundred years of life is so short..."

"Uncle Yu, did you remember something from the past?" The girl walked slowly to the fence not far away, and also looked at the river in the night.

"Yes, just now, listening to the past of the other person at the same table, I also unknowingly remembered some of my past." He seemed to be quite emotional.

"It's the one who sat across from me just now, the one who recited poems and wept."

"His name is Jin Huanian, a native of Hedaizhou. When he was young, he was also a leader. He was on the gold list of high school and entered the world's first-class imperial school. It's time for him to be full of energy. It's not a pleasure. He vowed to travel the world and travel thousands of miles of mountains and rivers."

"However, the dead are like this, day and night, looking back today, gray hair has grown on their heads."

"Although I don't have his literary talents, I still feel quite emotional when I hear it. As the years grow older, the fathers, brothers and uncles who once relied on have all entered the age of gray beards. Looking around, there is no one to rely on."

"He said that a few days ago, he looked back in his dream when he was young, and went out with his boy friends in the wild, looking for the beautiful woman's past. But after waking up from the dream, there was only bitterness in his heart."

"Because he can no longer go back to that age and time. The things he wanted to chase in the past, even if they are still there now, he can't run away. The body is getting old, the spirit is getting exhausted, he is panting when he climbs high, and he can't walk far. Only regret curls up. Wrapped around the chest, the railing sighs at the moon."

"After I heard this, I felt sorry for him, and felt sad." After Yu Baichou finished speaking, he went to the table and picked up the jug, poured another glass, and drank it in his mouth.

"It made the young lady laugh, it's just a group of frustrated people who only added to the sadness."

After hearing this, Lorraine Hill put his chin on the back of his hand covering the fence, and also looked at the river water without saying a word.

She wanted to comfort this uncle, but she didn't know how to say it.

Lament the changes of the world and time, and then tell him is this reality.What is the perfect life, how can I let myself spend this life without any regrets.Even she didn't have a good answer.

Everyone's experiences and dispositions are different. It is extremely difficult to find a universal life rule that is universal throughout the ages.

Sometimes even the ideal that is full of heart may become another taste after a few years, and then slowly dissipate, no longer like it.Accidents, accidents, mistakes, changes, and passing away are always full of life's journey.

I often regret afterwards, regretting that I didn't choose the right direction at the beginning, but unfortunately time is gone, no matter how regretful it is, it can't be undone.

"Regret is inevitable." She raised her head and stretched her hand into the night breeze.

"Is there anyone else in Uncle Yu's family?" She remembered what Yu Baichou said just now, and it seemed that there were some things in the family that made him worry.

"Yes, there are older brothers and younger brothers in my family, but they are ordinary people. The eldest brother plants a barren hill in his hometown, and the younger brother runs a restaurant in a small town to do some food business."

"After the old man in the family left, we brothers got together less and less often. Sometimes we went, and occasionally looked at the strange eyes of some nephews and nieces, and felt that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time."

"I have been traveling for almost half my life, while my elder brother and younger brother have always lived in the villages and towns of my hometown. Many concepts and ideas are different, and it is difficult to talk together again."

"Recalling the scene when we were young, the three of us often went out to play together, fought with others, and experienced a lot of things together. But after all, we gradually moved away, and we were speechless when we met."

"Sometimes I also wonder if it would be better if I didn't come out to make a living at that time and stayed in my hometown like them. Maybe now I am full of children and grandchildren, living a quiet life."

"Does Uncle Yu regret it?" the girl asked.

Yu Baichou didn't answer immediately, but quietly looked at the night mountain scenery.

"I do feel a little sad, but if I had to choose again, I would probably still embark on this path." There were all kinds of nostalgia in the voice.

"The reluctance and stubbornness of youth, the activeness and curiosity of youth, the satisfaction and pride of having a little power in adulthood, are like rivers flowing, all of which are unavoidable experiences."

"Even if one day he dies in a foreign country and no one collects him, he will feel that this journey is worthwhile." When he said these words, he seemed to have released some things that had been suppressed in his heart.

"Hahaha, so it is so, so it is so, so it is so." I saw this big man standing at the stern of the boat and laughing, his voice was heard far away on the silent river.

Afterwards, the Qi mechanism on his body also gradually changed. According to Lorraine Hill's observation, it seems that he has advanced?

So after waiting for a while, the aura of the big man gradually stabilized and slowly gathered.

"Uncle Yu understands something." She saw the man in front of her turn around, his pupils were like bright stones in the dark night, shining brightly.

"I understand the obstacles and barriers in my heart in the past, and today I feel refreshed." A smile cracked on Yu Baichou's bearded face.

"Although I was brave and strong in the past, there was always a trace of scruples and regrets in my heart, which made me hesitate at critical moments."

"I left home when I was young. I didn't have any achievements to be proud of when I was middle-aged. Every time I go home, I always feel guilty. And when my parents passed away, I felt that I hadn't fulfilled my filial piety. If I had been with them more at that time, What would it be like?"

"When I was fighting with others, I thought, I don't have any heirs yet, if I die, the incense will be cut off and no one will offer sacrifices."

"All kinds of mental obstacles live in my heart for a long time, like running around with an iron block on my back, and I can't enjoy myself. Would it be better if I chose another road back then, and I often have regrets in my heart."

"Looking back by chance now, if I go back to the past, let me choose again. Will I really stay at home with peace of mind, and will I really be in the famous sect?"

"I'm afraid I can't. If I stay at home, I'm afraid I will regret it even more when I get old. I regret not coming out to see it. And with my background and knowledge, even if I enter a famous school, I'm afraid I won't be able to communicate with those noble disciples, and I will gradually become a For the edge, not today, and some like-minded people of similar origins have a drink and talk."

"So, all the illusions are gone, I am still me, and there is no need to regret it anymore."

Looking at this well-thought-out uncle, the girl was also slightly delighted.

"It's great that Uncle Yu can figure it out." In her observation, the Sequence level of the uncle in front of her also slowly changed from Sequence 3 to Sequence 4.

In fact, he should have stayed on the edge of this level for a long time, but he has been unable to break through the heart barrier.

"Thank you very much. In fact, Miss Luo sometimes inspires me a lot." Yu Baichou suddenly thanked her.

"Me?" The girl was a little puzzled.

"Well, in fact, I was a little worried at the beginning, because a young lady like you is probably self-willed and difficult to get along with, haha."

"When I was working in the Cao Gang, I met many dignitaries, and some of them really gave me such an impression."

"Later, I saw that you were soft-hearted and considerate, so I let go of these things. Later, I saw that you had no family around you, and you couldn't remember your past. I was afraid that you would cry and feel sad alone."

"I'm a rough person and I'm not good at comforting others. I can only do nothing in the face of such a thing."

"But later seeing that Miss Luo was so free and easy, An Ran didn't care at all. Instead, she felt that she was acting like a fool."

"Is it necessary to remember everything and achieve every regret in order to live a happy life?"

"I used to think it was. But now it seems that it's not. It's just a lock I put on myself."

"It is indeed a joy to get it, but even if you lose it, don't you sleep in regret?" The girl tried to ask.

"Yes, hahaha." Yu Baichou slowly stroked his short beard.

"That's true, but it's still a bit difficult to do it." The girl thought so, but she actually felt that she was not as strong as Yu Baichou said.

"Yes, it's a bit difficult, but this is practice. With a free and tangible body, you can pursue the boundless and invisible way."

"Chasing the boundless with the boundless?" The girl looked at the vast distant scenery of mountains and fields in the night.

"Exactly." Yu Baichou replied, his voice was crisp and decisive.

Chapter 20 Ray Schazner

After traveling on the river for several days, the building boat finally stopped at a large ferry.

"After entering the ferry, ten miles to the east is the ancient Lei Ze City, and the recent Lei Xia Ze."

When they were about to disembark, a strong man was beside them to guide the way ahead.

"Thank you, Brother Peng, then we will leave." Yu Baichou cupped his fists to bid farewell, and the girl in white skirt beside him also saluted.

"Bon voyage." The Tuoshitang member surnamed Peng also bid farewell.

Afterwards, Lorraine Hill led the little donkey behind him and followed Yu Baichou into the crowded avenue.Most of these people also just got off the boat, heading towards Lei Xiaze.

"There are many lakes and rivers around Leixiaze. In ancient times, there was a huge city called Leize City. Unfortunately, with the changes of the sea, the ancient city gradually sank into the lake. Today's Leixiaze was built by the lake later. , although it is not as majestic as in ancient times, it is still a rare big city among the nearby continents."

Walking on the road, in order to pass the boring time, Yu Baichou introduced without saying a word.He had come to Lei Xiaze with a boat before, so he was no stranger to him.

"After entering the city, let's settle down first. It is said that several nearby factions will jointly hold a grand ceremony to recruit disciples."

"Okay, Uncle Yu." The girl climbed up a small hillside and looked at the long bluestone city wall in the distance in the wilderness. The destination was almost there.

----

Two hours later, the two followed the flow of people to the city of Lei Xiaze.The tall city gate needs to be looked up. There are a few big characters carved in deep blue above the gate, and there are faint flashes of lightning.

"Go in." After briefly checking the packages of the two, the guard at the gate waved his hand to let them go.

Compared with Qingwei City, which just came out of Minze, the streets here are much wider, and it is not difficult for eight carriages to run side by side, and the buildings in the city are also much larger, with a rough style with a touch of heroism, which is amazing.

Pedestrians walking in the city also wear different styles of clothes, not only ordinary coarse cotton clothes, silk brocades, but also miraculous scales and feathers.And some strange beasts for riding on the street also entered the girl's eyes.

Some are like black panthers, some are like four-horned horned dragons, and some are like flying tigers with wings. Although there are few such strange beasts, they are still different from the Western Continent.

This might be the reason for the dragon veins, the girl thought to herself.

Due to the existence of dragon veins, the Mana (Yuanli) between the heaven and the earth is more concentrated and concentrated, resulting in more monsters (alien beasts). , These strange beasts have gradually become resources.

At the same time, the most powerful dragon clan has gradually integrated into human life, making this country a world-famous dragon-loving country.

There will be messengers riding fast flying dragons between the state capitals to transmit information and exchange information, and the dragon knights galloping in the sky in the dynasty also ensure the integrity of the country and will not be easily divided.
