Chapter 102 Ambition
Song Heqing stood under the separate banyan tree and waited for Jiang Yu to return.
Time passed slowly as he paced back and forth.
Seeing the moon gradually moving westward and the gradually lengthening figure, I became more and more anxious.
Why haven't you come back yet.
After a while, two figures finally approached.
One of them was dressed in green and white clothes and had a thin figure. Song Heqing recognized Jiang Yu at a glance.
Another tall man, somewhat unfamiliar.
Song Heqing withdrew the invisibility charm on his body and stepped forward to greet him, "Master, you are back."
Jiang Yu nodded, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"It didn't take long." Song Heqing shook his head.
Jiang Yu raised his hand to brush off the green leaves on his shoulder, without exposing his harmless lie.
Song Heqing looked at the person next to Jiang Yu, just one step away.
Through the moonlight, he could clearly see the appearance of the person in front of him. It turned out to be the man named Yuan Xin.
"Okay, let's go back." Jiang Yu patted Song Heqing's shoulder. Song Heqing retracted his rude gaze and looked at Jiang Yu with some confusion.
Go back now?
"Can I ask your name?" Yuan Xin asked suddenly from where he was.
Jiang Yu stopped. At this time, she was already some distance away from Yuan Xin.
Yuan Xin didn't expect that the words he whispered could make Jiang Yu suddenly stop.
He just suddenly thought that he seemed to have forgotten to ask her name, so he subconsciously said it.
Maybe I'm afraid that I won't see him again and don't want to leave any regrets.
"Next time, if I can see you again next time." Jiang Yu's voice was not loud, but it traveled clearly to his ears along the wind.
Yuan Xin was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood that the person who saved him was indeed not an ordinary mortal, and he could not be measured by common sense.
Under the gradually fading moonlight, Jiang Yu and Song Heqing returned to Yuzhou City.
"Master, isn't your mission to..." kill him and dismantle this organization?
"What is my mission? My mission is to see the scenery of Yuzhou City and kill those officials who rely on the power of the Emperor Tiangao to oppress the people from afar." Jiang Yu said with a smile.
The moonlight elongated the two figures. Song Heqing lowered his head and stared at the black shadow, with a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
"What are you laughing at?" Jiang Yu lowered his head and saw a smile on his little apprentice's face. He didn't know what he was thinking of.
Song Heqing blinked, immediately retracted his smile, and tightened the corners of his lips.
Jiang Yu shook his head helplessly. His apprentice was older and worried now. He was so cute before.
Song Heqing still didn't know what Jiang Yu was thinking. He was just a little confused that the master had good intentions, but was a little awkward and stubbornly pretended to be indifferent.
"Let's take a walk outside tonight. I'll take you to the government office tomorrow and stay there for a while." After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he jumped up to the roof.
Song Heqing was slightly stunned, "Master, didn't you say you should take a walk?"
"I want to blow some air up there, can't I?" Jiang Yu looked down at Song Heqing and said calmly.
Song Heqing's lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything. This was true, but he was still the master, and there was something different tonight.
Song Heqing jumped onto the roof and followed Jiang Yu. The two came to the tallest building in Yuzhou City and sat on the raised ridge, quietly blowing in the wind.
"Master, you seem a little happy tonight." Song Heqing looked at Jiang Yu from the side. He never avoided Jiang Yu's gaze, and it was the same at this time.
Jiang Yu smiled and said nothing. The silver hairpin inlaid with vermillion acacia beans hung down between her buns, and her slightly messy hair hung down on both sides of her face. She looked a little different from her usual beauty.
Song Heqing looked at it like this, his eyes became softer and softer, and suddenly he thought of the wooden figure he once carved. Jiang Yu now seemed to be a bit more energetic than he was then.
He is different from people who usually have indifferent eyebrows.
"Why do you say that? Am I any different?" Jiang Yu was a little confused.
Does she look happy?But she didn't seem very happy in her heart, just a little relaxed.
"There's no difference, but I can feel it." Song Heqing shook his head, and then said something mysterious.
Jiang Yu chuckled, feeling somewhat believable.
Before Jiang Yu could refute, Song Heqing stared at Jiang Yu and continued: "Actually, there have been changes. The eyes... Master's eyes are smiling, and his brows have relaxed a bit."
The evening breeze was blowing, and even the hair had a lightness that it didn't usually have.
The smile on Jiang Yu's face gradually faded, and she stared at Song Heqing expressionlessly. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Song Heqing looked away in panic.
Jiang Yu suppressed his laughter and said with a straight face, "What now? Do you still think I'm happy?"
Song Heqing lowered his eyes, no longer looking at Jiang Yu, but said, "Happy."
"Why do you say that?" Jiang Yu didn't think it could be seen that a person wanted to hide his emotions.
But Song Heqing does seem to have this ability, at least to perceive her emotions.
"Actually, sometimes, emotions don't depend on expressions. If master wants to ask me why, I can't tell you." Song Heqing said helplessly.
"Forget it, I won't embarrass you anymore." Jiang Yu said softly.
Song Heqing breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to look at Jiang Yu, but she happened to catch her sight. She blinked her eyes in panic, and all her shrewdness disappeared.
The silly apprentice is back again, Jiang Yu thought to himself.
"It's really relaxing. I suddenly thought that so many years have passed and I won't have to wait much longer before I can leave. I won't have to be a thankless commanding officer anymore." Jiang Yu lowered his eyes with a smile in his eyes.
Song Heqing was a little stunned when he heard this. After a moment, he came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Yu's face that was getting whiter under the moonlight, "Master, what do you mean?"
"Time flies faster than I imagined. After more than 20 years, I can leave." Jiang Yu said softly.
This long wait, repeated year after year, will eventually come to an end, and one day she should find the meaning of her existence.
She once thought that 1000 years was a long time.
Later she found out it was just time to get some sleep.
700 years ago, she thought 800 years was a long time, but now she imagines that there are only more than 20 years left.
All the restraints and shackles will not withstand the suffering of the long years in the end.
When she saw Yuan Xin today, she knew that the Zhongli royal family was really exhausted and she was about to leave.
This is a trend that no one can resist.
She finally returns to the mountains and rivers.
"If I'm not here anymore, you have to practice hard and not slack off." Jiang Yu suddenly thought of something and turned to Song Heqing and said to Song Heqing, his expression was slightly serious, but he had the aura of a master.
Song Heqing nodded very cooperatively, "Master, don't worry, I will do it."
After the two chatted and laughed, the atmosphere slowly fell into silence.
Jiang Yu stretched out her hand and looked at the moonlight in the west through the gaps between her fingers. The moonlight passed through the gaps between her fingers and rushed to shine on her face, with mottled light and shadow.
"Although you are a very worry-free apprentice, I am still a little worried." Jiang Yu sighed.
"Master, don't worry about me. If one day you really ascend, I will try my best to follow your steps and won't stay in the world for too long." At this time, Song Heqing's eyes were filled with naked ambition.
He knew that his words seemed arrogant to the few cultivators today, but he believed in his determination.
