Chapter 25 That Year, That Man, That Tree
"Huh, huh——" Joel stood up, poured a bowl of wine, picked it up and said with a smile, "Megline, long time no see."

Meglin also poured a bowl of wine, picked it up and stood up, with a smile on her lips, and said, "A year and seven days to be precise."

"Hey, your memory is really good." Joel grinned.

Everyone looked at Joel as if he had seen a ghost. Did this dead face No. [-] smile just now?Dead Face One actually laughed?
"Hey——" A gust of wind rushed in from the window, blowing their navy cloaks and their hair. Meglin smiled softly, "Of course, I have always had a good memory!"

Dead Face No. [-] actually laughed too!What day is it today, two dead faces can actually laugh face to face without the help of external force!Wen Yan looked at the worried faces of the two of them, maybe they started fighting at the banquet, the two of them hadn't done anything for a year and seven days, one hand was itchy, and the other was itchy.

"What?" Joel smiled happily, his eyes crooked.

"Damn it!" Meglin replied.

The wind was raging, and the wine bowls of the two collided, and the golden light exploded, one gold and one green intertwined in the space.The surging energy surprised the onlookers slightly.

The interweaving of energy became more and more urgent, and the raging became more and more crazy. His eyes, which were weak in physical skills, could no longer be opened.Brothers Tira and Qiuton remembered the arrogance of the two bosses in the training camp in the past, and couldn't help shivering under the storm.

In the past ten years, he has been beaten the most by the two big bosses, and there is no way who can make him resist the beating.

Are these two strong enough?A trace of hesitation flashed in Iluvina's eyes. If she did it, would she have a [-]% chance of winning?I thought that after controlling the wind element, the duel with Meglin would be [-]-[-], but it seems that it is still close.

The two then raised their heads and drank the fine wine in the bowl, the wind stopped and the light dispersed, and the fluttering corners of their clothes fell quietly again.

Zefa had a panoramic view of the first confrontation between the two. This time the competition for the first place is interesting. It is no longer someone's unilateral beating. It is a pity that the elementalization of the natural system is not yet domineering to this group. For children, it is still an invincible bug.

"Hahaha, come, come, drink and drink."

After the first match, Joel invited everyone to have a drink together, "Let's have a bowl with Teacher Zefa first."

Everyone raised their wine bowls, "Cheers!"

Eleven wine bowls collided together, obviously just now they were on edge, but now they became beaming.

At the banquet, it was Joel and Shi Ni who yelled the loudest, jumping up and down, arrogant.They were also the first two to get down on the ground. In terms of drinking, these two people can't beat Tila and Qiu Dun who drink like water after ten years of cultivation. Only each other can be put in them.

"Ah——" Joel, who was drunk, grabbed Meglin's collar and yelled loudly: "Dead Face No. [-], I told you that I am very powerful now, you go back and wash it up and wait for me, this time from You must be beaten on the ground!"

The aggrieved weak have finally gained strength under the power of the strong for a long time and began to resist.

"Yes, yes, what you said is true." Meglin knocked off Joel's presumptuous trotters with a blank expression.

Oh, scum.

"Ouch—" Joel, who was overly excited, recoiled and spit out at Meglin.

Meglin immediately became elemental, vomited directly on the ground, her face darkened, and said angrily: "When you sober up, I must let you know why the flowers are so red."

"Hic—" Joel burped out a wine, and the stench sprayed Meglin's face.

Meglin couldn't hide from the vomit, but couldn't hide from the smelly belch, and disappeared in a gust of wind, "Joel, you're doomed, no one can save you, I told you!"

If I don't wash it ten times or eight times when I go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to get rid of the disgusting smell of alcohol.

Iluvina supported Joel, who was in a drunken state, and looked at Wen Yan's pupils and said, "Sister, I will leave them to you and Teacher Zefa. I will help Joel go back first."

Wen Yan's pupils narrowed slightly, then he smiled and said, "Okay, you have to take good care of Joel."

"I will take good care of my sister's sweetheart." Iluvina snickered.

Little girl, dare to laugh at me?Wen Yan was immediately annoyed, "Let's go, let's go, don't be an eyesore here."

Wen Yan turned to leave, and the memories of the two of them flooded into his mind again in an instant.

"Big sister, why is your piano sound always so sad?" Ten-year-old Joel stopped his training and looked curiously at Wen Yan behind him.

Girls always mature earlier than boys. 12-year-old Wen Yan looked at the innocent boy who only knew revenge, and smiled, "My sister is homesick."

"Where is my sister's house? What is it like?" Joel sat across from Wen Yan and dragged his chin with both hands and asked.

"My sister's home is in the East China Sea, a place full of flowers and fruit trees." Wen Yan's long black hair fluttered in the breeze, and only her and Joel's hair was black in the whole training camp, so she felt very kind to this brother.In the black eyes like the night sky, there is a faint sadness.

"Full of flowers and fruits?" Joel said: "In my hometown, the island is also full of cherry blossoms, and they bloom all year round even in winter."

"It must be beautiful." Wen Yan said longingly.

"Sister, have you heard of sweet-scented osmanthus?" Bilan's pupils were inexplicably excited.

Wen Yan looked at Joel in astonishment, maybe everyone is from Donghai, "Yes, there is a big sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard of my sister's house, every September, the sweet-scented osmanthus falls from the books, and the house is full of sweet-scented osmanthus. It's the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus."

Joel held Wen Yan's hand excitedly, and Wen Yan was startled, "Where is the sister's house? I must go and see it when I have time."

Wen Yan shook his head, "Outsiders are not welcome in my hometown."

"Then sister, let's plant an osmanthus tree in the training camp." Joel said excitedly.

Wen Yan looked at this very excited little boy inexplicably, patted his head, and said with a smile: "Silly brother, you need seeds to plant a tree."

The afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the pair of siblings, stretching their shadows very long.

With the passage of time, this incident was quickly forgotten in Wen Yan's mind. One day three years later, Joel mysteriously ran into Wen Yan's boudoir and said with a smile, "Sister, I have a gift for you." .”

Gift?Wen Yan, who was reading the piano score, looked at Joel in confusion, and saw that there were many bruises on his face. Even though he had changed into a clean set of clothes, he still couldn't hide the fact that he had just fought with others.

"Are you fighting with someone again?" Wen Yan put down the piano score, walked to the cabinet, opened the drawer and there were various medicines in it, of course not for himself.

Wen Yan took out the medicinal wine and carefully wiped it on Joel's face, then said in a helpless tone, "How many times have I told you not to fight with others, who is it this time? Tira or Meglin?"

Joel took out a piece of white silk and rolled it into a roll, covering Wen Yan's eyes.

"Silly brother, what are you doing?"

Joel pulled Wen Yan out and said, "Follow me."

After following Joel in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, Joel's voice rang in his ears again.

"Sister, look—"

The silk slipped down, and a small golden sapling came into her eyes. Wen Yan went up to touch the sapling, and the aroma trapped in dusty memory lingered on the tip of her nose again.

"This, this is the sapling of sweet-scented osmanthus."

Wen Yan looked at Joel in surprise, Joel was like a child (actually a child), smiling and touching the back of his head.The sunset three years ago rushed into Wen Yan's mind, "Sister, let's plant an osmanthus tree in the training camp."

Tears were like broken pearls, bursting in an instant, falling off one by one, flowing out of the eyes unstoppably.

"Silly brother!" Wen Yan hugged Joel excitedly.

"Sister, when this seedling grows up and blooms, I'll make sweet-scented osmanthus cake for you to eat. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake I make is delicious."

"Yeah." Wen Yan hugged Joel and nodded.

In the same setting sun, the two shadows, one big and one small, grew longer and longer. Three years later, Joel fulfilled the promise he made three years ago.

"Joel—" Zefa's roar made the two of them jump.

The tall figure of Zefa appeared in front of the two of them, "Joel, just now Major General Domaner came over and told me that you sneaked into the East China Sea hiding on his boat, right?"

Zefa stood in front of Joel with an angry face, and raised Joel with his left hand, "You are so courageous now, you dare to sneak out to sea."

Zefa, who just lost his right hand, knows the horror of the sea. Even his former general was beheaded by pirates, not to mention the 13-year-old Joel.

Wen Yan was surprised: "Joel, did you secretly go to the East China Sea to dig this sweet-scented osmanthus sapling?"

Zefa looked at the young sapling in front of him, and thought of Dao Maner snickering: Teacher Zefa, you are an amazing student. You hid on my boat and didn't let me find out.In the end, I went to the island to snatch a sapling and came back, and I had to pay him, which is amazing!
"You ran to Donghai just for this sapling?"

Wen Yan hugged Zefa's thigh and pleaded: "Teacher, it's all my fault. I proposed to plant an osmanthus tree. It's not Joel's fault, I'm also responsible for this matter."

"Just for one sapling, are you making fun of your own life? You will graduate in four years, how many saplings do you want?"

Joel struggled and said, "I agreed to this matter three years ago. I have been waiting for three years. Besides, this sweet-scented osmanthus tree is a symbol of Sister Wenyan's hometown, which is different."

Zefa put Joel down upon hearing this, "You still remember the promise made three years ago."

Wen Yan nodded upon hearing the words: "Yes, teacher, Brother Joel is keeping his promise three years ago." Wen Yan emphasized the three years and the promise.

Zefa showed a smile: "You are still smart." Then his face changed, "But Joel went to sea without permission, and punishment is inevitable."

After taking Joel away, Wen Yan immediately rushed back to get the medicine. Although the teacher promised not to hit too hard, the teacher's fist was too hard after all.

Time passed by little by little, every sunset Wenyan would wipe the medicine on Joel who came back from the fight in front of this sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and the little sapling grew up little by little, and the two of them grew up little by little.

The scent of osmanthus attracted other friends, and Iluvina came first, and the shadows in the sunset changed from two to three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, The sweet-scented osmanthus bloomed more and more vigorously, and finally even Meglin was attracted.

Ten people spent the next four years under the fragrance of osmanthus and the sweetness of Wenyan osmanthus cake.

Wen Yan turned around and handed Joel to Iluvina, walked into the room, and slowly recalled the emerging memories.

The special giant osmanthus tree from Xiserili in the training camp is now as graceful as a canopy.
