What's the matter with the male supporting role of salted fish when the plot collapsed?

After Mo Zong and the blood alliance members left, Li Qingya also left Tianzhu City by another road.

After walking in the direction we came from for half a day, the surrounding vegetation gradually thinned out, and the soil began to take on an old, rust-like red color.Going forward is the ancient battlefield, and it is also the place where he and Pei Yuyan agreed to meet in the jade slips.

Huge twin statues appeared in front of my eyes, behind me was Wangduan Mountain, and in front of me was the vast and desolate Shura Plain.

Looking from a distance, there is a tall and slender figure standing under the stone statue.The wind swept the dust and lifted the corners of Molan's clothes, but the man remained motionless, like a stone statue, and like a lone sword hanging between the sky and the earth, revealing the eternal loneliness——

Humanity is slim, immortality is boundless; life and death are fleeting, and the sea is faint... (Note 1)

Pei Yuyan had an epiphany, and Li Qingya didn't dare to disturb him, so he stayed by his side.He looked at the person in front of him with his eyes tightly shut, and felt that the other person was going to return to heaven and earth in the next second, coexisting with the Dao, and he couldn't help feeling deeply flustered and worried.

After an unknown amount of time, Pei Yuyan's eyelashes trembled slightly.Li Qingya stood up excitedly: "Little Master!"

Pei Yuyan looked at him, the moment his eyes full of profound meaning recognized the person in front of him, the spring breeze melted into snow.He called "Qingya" in a light tone, but if he had seen the ice and snow in the north, he could feel how gentle the voice of City Lord Tianze was.

"How did the little master suddenly realize it?"

Pei Yuyan explained: "After coming here, when I saw the words on the stone wall, I suddenly felt touched."

Sword Master Fuli and Pei Yuyan are both sword cultivators, so it's not surprising that Pei Yuyan could understand something from his motto.It's just that this proverb was left by Sword Master Fuli before his death, and although the moral meaning inside is profound, it is inevitably sad and unknown.

Li Qingya suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked, "How about the trip back to Xianzong?"

"Senior brother's soul has been properly settled. Tai Yi has sailed a boat to take care of it, and everything is fine. No one else knows about the disappearance of senior brother, but someone has noticed the change in the South China Sea and started to test it. As for the other souls of senior brother—" Pei Yuyan paused for a while, Shaking his head slightly, "I have no idea."

They don't know how to find Nie Qingxuan's soul, and they are not even sure where he will go, so they can only try slowly.

"Did you find anything after arriving here?"

"Not yet." Afraid that Li Qingya would not be able to find him when he arrived, Pei Yuyan didn't go anywhere after arriving.

Li Qingya looked around, the mountain was bare, and there was no place to see: "Then let's go up the mountain and have a look."

There is a war soul temple on Wangduan Mountain, which was built to comfort the hundreds of thousands of heroes who died here.

It was noon when Li Qingya arrived, and the sky was bright.But after waiting for such a long time, the sun has already moved to the west, and the ancient battlefield has been clouded to avoid the sun all the year round, and every time it passes the unitary hour, the sky becomes completely dark.Therefore, when I arrived at the middle of the mountain, I couldn't see my fingers.

Dark mountains, dark forests, not even birdsong.Pine trees stand sparsely on the hillside like ghost shadows, and the night wind blows across the plain, howling like ghosts.

The gloomy environment made Li Qingya's heart shudder. It's not possible that this place is haunted, there must be ghosts!

Suddenly, a slender and strong hand held him, and the warm body temperature came through the touching skin, sweeping away the panic in Li Qingya's heart.

Li Qingya relaxed in his heart, but wanted to save face: "Little Martial Uncle, that... I'm not afraid."

Pei Yuyan replied seriously: "Yes, I know."

With a tolerant tone, Li Qingya realized that the only effect of his words just now was to cover up, he felt embarrassed, and asked back: "Aren't you afraid, little uncle?"

Pei Yuyan shook his head lightly.

Anyway, say "I'm afraid" to give him a chance to comfort him and go back, but it's really difficult to make Pei Yuyan lie.Li Qingya asked unwillingly: "Has the little uncle ever been afraid?"

"A lot." Pei Yuyan admitted simply.

If you have a heart, you will be in awe.The more you care, the more you fear.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Afraid of the cold."

The little uncle who grew up in the north is afraid of the cold?Li Qingya couldn't help being confused, but Pei Yuyan was not Nie Qingxuan who was full of bad intentions, and he didn't tell lies.

Pei Yuyan hadn't finished yet: "I'm afraid the northern border will become a no-man's land."

When he was young, the northern border was once deserted because of the alienation of his people. This was the pain of City Lord Tianze, and his long-cherished wish was to bring the northern border back to life.

"I'm afraid I have to hurt senior brother."

This is about the fact that Nie Qingxuan asked Pei Yuyan to stop him from falling into the devil, and Li Qingya already knew about it.

"I'm still afraid that I can't find Qingya." Having said that, Pei Yuyan tightened Li Qingya's hand.

Three days ago, he found the inn but saw no one. He thought something happened to Li Qingya again. God knows how panicked he was at that time.After discovering the code, he wished he could rush to his nephew right away, but because of a message from Li Qingya, he could only suppress his anxiety and wait quietly.

Li Qingya also felt that he had sinned a lot for making the teacher worry again and again: "I'm sorry. I made my junior uncle worry again."

"No need to say sorry."

In fact, even if Li Qingya was here, he still couldn't help but worry.

Worrying is never ending.

Before I found it, I was worried that something would happen to him; after I found it, I was worried that he would disappear again; even if I held him, I was afraid that he would stumble.

When we haven’t met, we are worried that we won’t be able to see each other, and when we see each other, we are afraid that we won’t meet again; when we are unfamiliar, we are worried that he will hate me, and when we are getting close, we are afraid that one day he will have someone closer.

Pei Yuyan's heart was like a swing, swinging back and forth between joy and distress.Worry about gains and losses, feel restless.

But he couldn't think of the right words to properly convey this feeling to Li Qingya.Every touch can only be treated solemnly and solemnly.

During the intermittent conversation, they arrived at the War Soul Temple, and the gloomy atmosphere faded a lot here.

Behind the tall archway is a white jade road, and wordless stone tablets on both sides stand like a forest of swords, pointing directly at the sky, and a tablet is a soul.

Will Nie Qingxuan's soul be here?

Li Qingya walked into the forest of steles, and slowly looked at each stele.But he didn't find it all the way to the end. Just when he was about to turn back to find Pei Yuyan, he suddenly heard a sigh.

"It's raining really well."

Li Qingya turned around and found that he was back in the courtyard of Tianmen.

It's much quieter here than last time.Pei Qinli, whom Nie Qingxuan had seen before, was standing under the courtyard. He looked haggard and thinner. He had a long lifespan, but he had a lot of hair on his temples.

Nie Qingxuan, who looked like a youth, came from the back room. After seeing Pei Qin, he rushed forward and said eagerly: "Master, you can't go!"

Pei Qin ignored him, stretched out his hand to catch the rain from the eaves, and sighed again: "It's really a good rain."

This indifferent attitude annoyed Nie Qingxuan: "The Demon Emperor is here for your life! You can't fight!"

Magic Emperor?Li Qingya was secretly startled.For Pei Qin's life?Could it be that the time has come for the Demon Emperor to challenge Tianxuan Daozun?So more than 100 years have passed since the last memory?

700 years ago, the Demon Emperor started a war and pointed his sword at all sects.And Pei Qin was recognized as No. 1 in the cultivation world at that time. If he could use his life to sacrifice the flag for the war, then the biggest obstacle to conquering the cultivation world would be eliminated.

Under this premise, the Demon Emperor threatened the entire Jingzhou, and issued a war letter to Pei Qin, the Taoist priest of Tianxuan.

At that time, the Demon Emperor had just advanced to the half-step tribulation, and because of Mrs. Yaoxin's departure, Pei Qin felt ashamed, abandoned his cultivation, and had been stuck in the integration of Dzogchen for many years. This battle was very bad for him. few.

Pei Qin finally responded to Nie Qingxuan: "But if I refuse to fight, he will flatten the whole state."

"What does Jingzhou have to do with us? What does the world have to do with us? Tianmen lives in seclusion and has never wanted anything from people in the world. Why should we stand up for the world?"

Nie Qingxuan is not without mercy, but if this kindness has to be exchanged for the lives of his closest relatives, he would rather be cold-blooded and ruthless.

Pei Qin didn't respond to him directly, but looked at the courtyard shrouded in rain and mist, and sighed: "This year's weather is very good, hydrangeas must bloom beautifully. Your mistress loves hydrangeas the most, and will definitely find time to draw them. The ink she uses comes from Dongling, and the drawing paper comes from Qingzhou, and your senior brother will help her grind the ink in the Duan inkstone in advance."

Nie Qingxuan was full of depression: It's this time, what are you talking about?

"However, if the world is in chaos, Dongling's ink will not be able to be transported to Yunzhou, and the Jiangnan painting paper factory will also be destroyed by the flames of war. She will first have no paper and pen, then she will not be able to buy clothing materials, and finally she will have to be displaced with your senior brother. "

Nie Qingxuan was startled and speechless.

"Qingxuan, you are right. Your master is not someone who cares about the world, not even a person who lives clearly. What I do is not for the world, not for the common people, but to protect the people I love. Live this quiet life."

He once thought that his love for Yaoxin was only much more than that of others, but after losing it, he realized that he was wrong.

For him, other people are just fleeting romances, only Yaoxin is something that can't be met.

It is like a fish that has swam three thousand miles and meets a bird that is taking a nap by the water. The bird gives up the sky for the fish, but the fish is still attached to other waters. It is only natural that the bird will fly away.

When Mrs. Yao Xin left, she said to Pei Qin, "We will never see each other again in this life." If he insisted on coming to see her, she would have to die for him.

Pei Qin was afraid, so he didn't dare to set foot in Yunzhou for a hundred years.

He no longer extravagantly hopes to get Yao Xin's forgiveness, but if this crippled body can shield her from the wind and rain, then she will die without complaint.

Li Qingya regained consciousness from the memory and found that it was raining in the forest of steles.There was an extra person in front of the unnamed stele, with black hair and green clothes, exactly the same as Nie Qingxuan in the illusion.He stood quietly, his hand seemed to be holding something, but from Li Qingya's perspective, there was nothing inside.

"Master?" Li Qingya went to hold his hand, but passed through.

In the blink of an eye, he was pulled into a new illusion of memory——

After the conversation with Pei Qin, Nie Qingxuan secretly left Tianmen.He traveled through mountains and rivers, crossed half of the continent to Yunzhou, and found Fengquan Valley where Mrs. Yaoxin lived in seclusion.

Mrs. Yaoxin was originally the only heir of the Lord of the Northern Territory, but in order to marry Pei Qin, she gave up her identity and responsibilities to the Northern Territory, and followed Pei Qin to the Central Plains.Now that there is no good fruit, she has no face to go back, so she lives in seclusion here and ends up with the rest of her life.

Nie Qingxuan who arrived at Fengquan Valley was very shocked.This place is not as peaceful and beautiful as Pei Qin imagined, but rather lifeless, like a tomb of the living dead.

He stood in the bamboo forest in the valley and shouted: "Pei Ting! Come out!"

Pei Ting?This is Sword Master Fuli's real name?Which "court" word?Li Qingya was secretly puzzled.

"Come out! Pei Ting! I know you're here!"

Nie Qingxuan was still shouting, over and over again.He didn't get a response until his mouth was dry.

"Why are you looking for me?" A cold tone sounded, and a pair of white boots stepped out of the bamboo forest.

The young man who appeared was handsome, with clean and upright facial features, and a natural air of grandeur, but the plain white filial dress was so eye-catching that Nie Qingxuan, who turned around, instantly forgot what to say.

Li Qingya was as shocked as Nie Qingxuan, but not because of filial piety, but because of the appearance of the visitor——

"Little—little uncle?"

The author has something to say: he chased his wife to the crematorium for a while, and he couldn't get back.
