When Shaw Danon woke up, the sky was already dark. He must have slept for at least ten or twelve hours, but Bilu still did not wake up. Her hands were tightly holding his clothes, she looked like a frightened child. No one could imagine she was actually an important person in Felkin!
Shaw Danon put his hand under his head, listening to the rustling sound of the trees in the forest, suddenly, he thought of Mount Jadeon's Bamboo Peak, the bamboo forest, didn't it also make the same sound?
These days, I was missing in Cave of Fangs, the news must have been sent back to Bamboo Peak. I wonder if Ling'Er Shijie will be sad when she knows it? However, if I suddenly appeared in front of her, she would definitely be happy. She would definitely grab my hand and laugh, "Brat, I knew you wouldn't die so easily!"
In the gradually darkening night, a smile appeared on his face. Even his eyes were so bright in the dark night. However, he did not notice that there was another pair of bright eyes beside him. He did not know when this pair of eyes had started to faintly stare at him.
The sky was bright again. Birds chirped in the mountain, clear and sweet.
Shaw Danon walked to the stream, put his hands together, scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on his face. The cool feeling went straight into his heart. He checked his left hand and removed the bandage. The broken bone was almost healed. He was happy. He took off the fire stick tied to his hand and inserted it into his waist. He exercised his left hand. Sure enough, it was not a big problem.
"Is your hand healed?" Bilu came from behind him, looked at him, then squatted down and washed her face with the stream water.
"Yeah." Shaw Danon said happily, "It's no big deal. It doesn't hurt at all."
Bilu used her sleeve to gently wipe the water off her face, said: "Don't move around, your bones and tendons are hurt, you need to rest for a while more."
"Got it." Shaw Danon answered, then looked at Bilu, hesitated for a moment, then said: "Miss Bilu, now we are lucky enough to stay alive and escape from the mountain. You and I can be counted as friends. But since we are different, we will part here today."
Bilu crouched beside the water, did not get up, but her body seemed to tremble. Shaw Danon could not see her expression. After a while, he heard her low voice said: "Oh, is it different?"
Shaw Danon nodded: "Yes, I am Righteous, you are Felkin. Since young, my master taught me that Righteous and Evil cannot coexist. Next time we meet, I am afraid we will be enemies. You took care of me and saved me in the belly of the mountain. I am truly grateful. If fate wills it in the future, I will naturally repay this kindness. "
Bilu looked at the reflection of the blurry figure in the clear water, murmured: "Repay me?"
Shaw Danon answered: "Yes, we are clear about kindness and hatred. If you did not save me, there is no way I can survive. If there is anything I can do for you in the future, I will do it." At this point, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate and hurriedly added, "But you can't make me do anything that would betray the righteousness of the sect."
Bilu suddenly stood up, turned around, said: "I can see you are a talent. Why don't you join our Holy faction. I will recommend you to father. He always loves talent, he will definitely put you in an important position. It is better than being a nameless cook in Bamboo Peak."
Shaw Danon's face darkened, said: "Miss Bilu, don't talk nonsense. I am a Righteous, I would rather die than join Felkin. From what I see, being a little cook in Bamboo Peak is much better than being able to control the wind and rain in your Felkin."
BiYao's lips curled up into a cold smile, her words also became sharp and cold: "Righteous? The sin that you Righteous created is no less than us Felkin. During the war between Righteous and Evil, your ancestors also killed everyone they saw, even the old, women and children were not spared! "
"Nonsense!" Shaw Danon was enraged, "Those are the good deeds of your Felkin. You think I don't know, you killed a lot of people, ruined the people......"
Bilu said angrily: "Did you see it with your own eyes? Didn't your master tell you that? For their own face, why would they tell you the truth? "
Shaw Danon laughed coldly, said: "Then did you see it with your own eyes? You are telling me that Righteous is evil, Felkin is good, isn't it just your elders whitewash the words of their ancestors! "
Bilu startled, couldn't say anything. Shaw Danon looked at her, recalled the days of life and death together with her, his heart softened, lowered his voice, said softly: "Miss Bilu, no matter what the ancestors did, let us not care about them. But our Jadeon's rule is strict, forbid our disciples to contact with Felkin. I live in Jadeon, I dare not to violate it. Today we will part here, if fate allows us to meet again, if you can repent, forsake the darkness for the light, I, Shaw Danon will use my life to guarantee for you, let you enter the Righteous......" He said eloquently, but then he stopped. Bilu was sneering at him:
"Your bullshit Righteous, can't even invite me, and still talk about forsake the darkness for the light. Fine, I will give you a clear path, if you don't want to go, then go be your Righteous. The next time we meet, the first thing I will take is your head! "
Shaw Danon was surprised, this woman changed her attitude faster than turning a page of a book. But he had no mood to argue, and he always felt he owed Bilu. He cupped his hands, said: "Take care." Then he turned and walked away without looking back.
Bilu watched him walk away, she did not turn her head even once. After his figure disappeared in the forest, suddenly, her heart was empty, like she lost something important. She lost her spirit and slowly sat down. Her eyes wandered past the ashes where Shaw Danon barbecued the rabbit last night. She was startled, and tears unknowingly came out.
She looked at the pile of ashes and just sat there. After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly realized that the crisp chirping of the birds in the forest behind her had suddenly quietened down, as if they had sensed something ominous and didn't dare to make a sound.
Then, she saw a black shadow slowly moved out from behind her, shrouding her.
Although it was daytime, but for some reason, it was like the sky had darkened.
Bilu suddenly turned her head, looked at the person behind her. After a while, she cried sadly: "Dad!" She threw herself into that person's arms.
That shadow startled, did not expect Bilu would do such thing. But he was happy to see his daughter escaped from danger, the joy could not be hidden anymore.
Shaw Danon walked in the forest for a day, then left the boundary of Kongsang Mountain. If he were to fly, he could get out in half a day, but because of the wound on his left hand, he was willing to walk a little longer. But Kongsang Mountain was always sparsely populated, he did not see a single person on the way.
After spending a night in the wild, Shaw Danon walked on the official road. The road became wider, and the number of people also increased. He asked the passersby on the road, got the direction of the road, then headed north.
That day, noon, very hot. Shaw Danon had traveled for half a day, his mouth was very thirsty. He saw a small tea stall on the roadside, under a big tree. There were already five or six customers sitting there. Seeing it was cool, he went there, bought a cup of tea and took a rest.
The tea from this small tea stall was really refreshing. Shaw Danon drank a bowl and immediately felt comfortable. It was like the weather was not so hot anymore. He thought that the wound on his hand was already healed. In the afternoon, he will find a quiet place and fly back. It will be faster and he can see his master earlier.
Thinking about it, he naturally remembered he could see his Shijie Hidi. His heart couldn't help but warm up. At that moment, a gentle voice came from the side of the road: "Shopkeeper, give me a cup of tea."
At noon, a rare breeze blew past, causing the branches and leaves on the tree to sway. Bits of broken sunlight fell to the ground. The fifty something years old tea stall owner answered, bent down to pour the tea. Shaw Danon inadvertently looked at him, then he could not take his eyes back.
He was a middle-aged scholar with thin eyebrows and a square face. His facial features looked refined, but his eyes were bright and his forehead was full. Yet, amidst his elegance, he exuded an imposing aura. He was dressed in a scholarly robe, and there was a light purple jade pendant hanging from his waist. It was exquisite and translucent, and faintly emitted an auspicious aura.
Shaw Danon looked at him for a while, then suddenly realized he was shocked by the middle-aged scholar's demeanor. When he walked in, including himself, the five or six customers who were drinking tea at the tea stall were all silent, suppressed by this person's presence.
Shaw Danon took back his eyes, but his heart was slightly surprised. At the same time, he was greatly impressed by the middle-aged scholar's presence. Although this person was not very handsome, but the presence that came from inside was really rare.
The scholar entered the tea stall, took the tea from the shopkeeper, sat down, and began to slowly taste the tea. The customers who were chatting and laughing around them were now silent. The atmosphere in the tea stall was so quiet that it was a little strange. Only the middle-aged scholar was calm and collected. He didn't notice the situation around him at all. He was drinking tea and resting alone.
