In the private room of the coffee shop, melodious music was playing. Li Qinghe was holding a cup of coffee. After hearing this, he almost choked.
"You came to me early in the morning just to talk about this?"
"Well, I want to retreat."
Li Zixuan sat at the opposite table, lowering her eyes while stirring her sugar-cube coffee, and said firmly: "I may be away for a long time in the future. When I am not with my senior brother, I will have to trouble you, Sister Qinghe, to try to look after him."
The time of my retreat is yet to be determined.
It could take several weeks, or even a year or two.
Senior brother is not by my side.
If anything unexpected happens, it would be nice to ask my cousin for help.
"this….."
Li Qinghe pondered for a while, "It's definitely no problem to help that Master Qin... But why did you suddenly want to go into seclusion, Zixuan?"
As she said this, she put down her coffee cup and advised earnestly:
"Although you have entered the Xiantian realm, you are rushing into this matter too hastily. Isn't it a bit reckless? You should be more stable."
"Not reckless, just right."
Li Zixuan shook her head. "After that beast tide, I also saw clearly how weak I was. Sister Qinghe, please stop trying to persuade me. I have made up my mind."
While talking.
Her voice became increasingly low, "If I had the strength of the Supreme Realm that day, why would I have let the teacher fight alone? If I could have gone up to help him, perhaps he would not have self-destructed." " Hiss..."
Hearing this, Li Qinghe took a breath and frowned, "What about your senior brother? What did he say? For such a big thing, there should be some reaction, right?"
"Sister Qinghe, don't worry, I have already asked my senior brother about this."
Li Zixuan recalled Qin Yang's words and said softly, "He supports me to go into seclusion, but there is a prerequisite. I must ensure my own safety and focus on cultivation before I can start my seclusion."
“…”
Li Qinghe was silent and conflicted. She looked at Li Zixuan's determined expression.
I thought to myself that this was not good.
broken!
My cousin is becoming stubborn!
Now even if the elders of the family came, they would not be able to bring her back.
Li Zixuan said before that she wanted to practice sword, and once she made up her mind, she would never regret it and would not change at all.
This is my silly cousin...
What would her reaction be if she knew that her master was not dead? Thinking of this.
Li Qinghe hesitated to speak, and hinted cautiously:
"Zixuan, have you ever thought that...the master is not dead? He is very capable, maybe he has other ways to escape."
"Other means?"
Hearing this, Li Zixuan pursed her lips and said, "Sister Qinghe, I understand what you mean..."
"Um?!"
“You understand now?!”
Li Qinghe was delighted when he saw this! The hint was successful so smoothly? !
Great! Originally, I was thinking of spending more time giving hints, but now that Li Zixuan has understood, it would be better to save time.
I didn’t expect that!
This silly girl will eventually come to her senses! However.
She hadn't waited long to be happy.
Then Li Zixuan continued, "You are actually sad about the teacher's death, right?! Sister Qinghe, but you have to move on a little. You can't lie to yourself. Senior brother has walked out of it, so you should also leave the shadow as soon as possible."
Li Zixuan looked at Li Qinghe with concern, feeling an inexplicable pity in her heart.
In fact, she also knew that
My cousin has always been a fangirl of Jianghai Sword God! But now.
How long has she been a disciple? Yet she has never even seen the Sword God of Jianghai! She is full of regrets.
"well."
Li Zixuan sighed and said, "Sister Qinghe, you should come out as soon as possible."
The words fell.
"I.....that's not what I meant."
Li Qinghe didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He gathered his hair and said helplessly, "Forget it."
Hear this.
Li Qinghe already understood.
It seems that Qin Yang has no intention of telling his cousin at all.
I guess he must have his own plan.
In this case,
There is no need for me to get involved anymore.
"Well, Sister Qinghe, don't comfort me anymore."
Li Zixuan nodded, held Li Qinghe's hand, and said softly: "I know that you are not feeling well after the teacher's death. I know you best from childhood to adulthood. Every time you encounter something, you pretend to be strong, but you are actually feeling very uncomfortable."
Then, she whispered, "Sister Qinghe, you must have cried secretly these past few days, right...?"
The words fell.
“…….”
Li Qinghe was silent, feeling very conflicted.
My cousin was cheated and it’s really tragic.
But if I tell them, I'm afraid it will only cause trouble for my master and the others! But if I don't tell them, I'll feel uncomfortable.
"never mind."
Li Qinghe lowered his head and sipped his coffee, sighing in his heart: "Since Master did this, he must have a deep intention... What if I accidentally ruin his plan after it is exposed and get expelled from the sect?"
My plan to advance to a higher position has not yet been accomplished! ! I won’t talk about it anymore!
"Are you okay, Sister Qinghe?"
Li Zixuan saw the strange look on Li Qinghe's face and thought that he was worried about her, so she said softly, "Don't worry, Sister Qinghe, don't worry about me.
I have been in good shape these days, and everything has gone smoothly. I have overcome many obstacles.
When I come out of seclusion, you will definitely see a different me!"
"Uh, okay."
Li Qinghe lowered his head and sipped his coffee, not daring to look into his cousin's eyes. He said with a guilty conscience, "Then Master, keep up the good work. I will respectfully wait for the day when you come out of seclusion."
…
…
The next day.
Early morning.
After the beast tide, the smell of human habitation began to rise. This coastal city became bustling with people, and more and more people returned to the library to work.
There was a long queue at the door waiting for a seat.
"good."
Qin Yang turned the employee card in his hand, admiring the black and white silks passing by, feasting his eyes, and leisurely walked to the attendance machine to open it.
I met many familiar colleagues along the way.
"Good morning, Qin Yang!"
"I think he didn't leave the museum last time?"
"You are so lucky that you dare to stay here despite the beast tide!"
"I heard that when the beast tide came, there were only him and the manager in the whole museum. Even the security guard at the door ran away!"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
“…….”
There was the sound of a murmur of discussion.
Qin Yang smiled indifferently, without any expression, and just continued to work with Xiaobai.
Ever since the beast tide stayed behind.
My reputation in the museum has risen again.
However, I still have to take this class.
Just at this moment.
"Qin Yang!"
A familiar voice came.
Qin Yang suddenly turned around and immediately saw the manager chasing after him. He was panting, holding his knees, and looked very tired.
"Wait, why are you walking so fast?"
The steward wiped his sweat and said, "I almost couldn't catch up with you when I got older."
"Shouldn't we get ready for work first?"
Qin Yang instinctively fooled around and looked around: "There are many guests today, so I have to prepare in advance, otherwise it will be troublesome later."
As soon as the words fell.
"good."
The manager stood up, nodded with satisfaction, and patted Qin Yang on the chest: "I admire your seriousness. Before, Beast Tide said he would give you a promotion. Do you remember?"
"Um?"
Qin Yang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "Manager, have you done it?"
This is so unexpected.
Wow! The big promise came true.
The manager is a good person to deal with! "Huh, you get excited just talking about this."
The manager laughed and scolded, "In view of your performance during the beast tide, I have reported it to the leader and decided to give you a promotion and a raise."
"Thank you, Steward!"
Qin Yang was surprised. "What position is it? Warehouse inspector in Area 1?"
"No, it's higher than that."
The manager shook his head, pointed to his employee badge, and smiled:
"It's the steward."
"From today on, you are the new manager of the museum. Work hard and don't let me down."
“…I am the manager?”
Hearing this, Qin Yang looked at him hesitantly and said, "After I take over, where will you go?"
"Forget about my old bones."
The manager waved his hands, covered his chest, and said with lingering fear: "I am too old and can no longer walk... and after this beast tide, I have understood one thing.
As he said that, he looked at Qin Yang and sighed: "This world still belongs to you young people. It's time for the old man to go home and hug his grandchildren."
"I see."
Hearing this, Qin Yang was quite touched.
Although the beast tide siege has passed.
But for ordinary people, the psychological aftermath is unimaginable, and the threat of death is imminent. Conservative estimates show that psychologists made a lot of money during this period.
This is the life of ordinary people.
Think of this.
Qin Yang looked at the steward in front of him and gave his last blessing: "I wish you a happy retirement life, and leave the work to me."
"Okay, call me if you have any questions at work."
The manager stretched out his hand to make a telephone gesture, said a few words, then turned and left the library.
……. "Congratulations, Master! You got another promotion!!!"
Xiao Bai rubbed Qin Yang's trouser leg and took the opportunity to lick it, "Master, you work so hard every day, and it really pays off! Sooner or later, you will be the owner of the museum!"
"Okay, I'm in a good mood today."
Qin Yang picked up Xiao Bai and put her in his arms, rubbing her head and said, "I will lick the Heart of Law for you for another half an hour."
"Oh yeah!"
…………..In the evening.
As night falls on the rivers and seas, the streets light up with neon lights.
Jianghai Airport.
Huh~ The signal lights on the ground were red and blue, and several flights were taking off and landing. On the tarmac, a flight from the imperial capital landed...
Passengers walked down from the boarding gate, breathing in the cold air, and stood on the roadside waiting for the airport bus.
A middle-aged man quietly got off the plane among the crowd. He was wearing a brocade robe and had an extraordinary temperament... He was out of tune with the people around him and attracted a lot of attention.
The most peculiar of them all.
It was still the big bow he was carrying.
The bow is carved with mysterious patterns, which are full of vitality and meaning, and seem to be intertwined like snakes.
"We've finally reached Jianghai."
The middle-aged man felt the gazes of the people around him, but he didn't care. He just quietly left the crowd and walked towards the nearest open space.
Soon, the figure leaped, he broke through the void and came to the sky, looking up at the city lights in the distance.
"Jianghai Arrow God?"
"Who could it be?"
Liu Wushuang raised an eyebrow, untied the black bow on his back, and brushed it with two fingers, feeling a little angry: "You made me take the blame for no reason, don't let me see you again! I will never forgive you!"
