The white jade capital in the sky has five cities on the [-]th floor.Immortals caress my top and endure longevity.

When he first arrived in Baiyujing two years ago, Yu Bai thought he would see crowds of immortal cultivators, weird and bizarre immortal arts, or if he was lucky enough to meet fellow Taoists who ascended through the tribulation amidst lightning and thunder—it was impossible, come on Some misty clouds and smoke will do.

No, nothing.Many years later, when Yu Bai stood in the legendary Baiyujing—if this desolate mountain could also be called "Baiyujing", the holy place for cultivating immortals, he would definitely think of the man who kept saying to take him there in the spring twilight of Ruoshui City. Master Rong who practiced the path of ruthlessness and gave him true freedom.

Don't ask, if you ask, you will regret it, very sorry.

Yu Bai walked around the mountain, and when he found himself and Rong Cunxin were the only humanoid creatures on the entire mountain, he couldn't help feeling deeply: "Mr. Rong, are you abducting me to develop the barren mountain?"

Rong Cunxin solemnly raised an index finger: "Don't make a sound."

"What did you see?"

As far as the eye can see, apart from the barren hills, there is only one house that looks crumbling.Yu Bai waited and watched for a while, and chose to remain silent.

Rong Cunxin suddenly became excited: "Can't you see this misty cloud? Can't you see the castle in the cloud? Can't you see that golden and red lightning bolt in the sky? Can't you see that flawless and handsome fairy in white?"

Yu Bai: "..." He retraced the way he came here in his mind, and turned around resolutely.

Rong Cunxin grabbed his wrist, stroked the non-existent beard and laughed: "Eh, I can't see either."

It can be seen from this that Yu Bai was able to be a pioneer in Baiyujing for two years, which can be called a coincidence.Rong Cunxin expressed strong dissatisfaction with this: "Didn't I pass on all the knowledge I have learned in my life? Besides, have you become more proficient in growing vegetables and cooking?"

Yu Bai looked at the sweet potato that had just been dug out of the ground in his hand.

Putting everything aside, Bai Yujing is indeed cut off from the world, even Yu Bai, who personally followed Rong Cunxin all the way, can't even remember the way back.

The isolation has brought the ultimate tranquility, allowing him to get rid of all the things he once cared about, and focus on reading, practicing martial arts, growing vegetables, growing flowers, bickering with each other, drawing out his sword every day, facing the morning light or dusk , Practicing every move and style taught to him by Rong Cunxin himself, wherever the sword shines, the birds will startle.

Those remnants of beauty and extravagance, the lingering longing and sorrow, all go away in the breeze in the bamboo forest.

"So you really don't consider inheriting my mantle and cultivating this ruthless way?" Rong Cunxin waved a pamphlet to lure him, "It's not a loss if you fail in the cultivation, don't come again if you miss the opportunity."

Yu Bai twirled the wooden stick that speared the fish, without raising his head, he said: "Forget it, I'm afraid that if I succeed, I won't make you ashamed."

Rong Cunxin snorted contemptuously, probably because he had once again seen the thick skin of this apprentice.He also squatted down and sprinkled salt and pepper on the grilled fish: "By the way, there is something you might want to know."

Yu Bai turned the grilled fish over: "I don't want to."

"About Zhao Jun, don't you want it?" Rong Cunxin thoughtfully did not wait for Yu Bai's answer, "Just yesterday—oh no, it was the day before yesterday. He died. It is said that he died suddenly from a heart attack. , the posthumous edict is located in Zhao Jing, King Mu, and it should have been released from Nangong by now."

He waited for a while, and couldn't help wondering, "Why didn't you respond?"

Yu Bai twisted a few grains of coarse salt, and sprinkled it on the belly of the fish finely: "Why, do I still have to wear sackcloth and mourning to cry?"

Before the words were finished, one piece of grilled fish was missing from the fire, and then a gust of wind suddenly struck.Yu Bai quickly raised the grilled fish to block, the two fishes were evenly matched in the fight, but there was a mistake in chess, and in the blink of an eye, both fish were snatched away by Rong Cunxin.

"The reaction is slow." Rong Cunxin held two fish in one hand, stretched out his index finger and shook, "Xiaobai, you are confused. These two fish are mine."

Yu Bai pouted, smiled disdainfully, got up and walked outside.

Rong Cunxin shouted behind him: "Where are you going?"

Yu Bai raised his hand, leaving only a view of his back: "Go to sleep."

The wind rustled through the bamboo forest.The evening wind carried Rong Cunxin's sigh, and floated far, far away: "Sure enough, you can't cultivate the way of ruthlessness... Tsk, but the way of ruthlessness is not cultivated by humans, so let's not practice it if you don't practice it..."

.

I didn't ask Hong Chen for two years, but Hong Chen quietly fell into a dream.The dense fog in the dream cleared away, and the shadow of the old man was clearly in sight.Yu Bai stood on the spot and stared coldly for a while, then turned around indifferently.

It doesn't stop after death.

The fog dissipates, and the dream wakes up.

When Yu Bai opened his eyes, he realized that the drizzling sound he heard in his dream actually came from reality.He pushed open the door and walked out, just as the moon opened and the clouds cleared, occasionally a few scattered raindrops fell on the corners of his eyes and between his eyebrows, and were quickly dried by the slightly cold night wind.

Just after a heavy rain, the dirt road under our feet is rough and difficult.Yu Bai likes this moist and fresh feeling very much, stepping on the path paved with gravel and green grass, walking slowly in the wild mountains after the rain.

Suddenly, some faint green fluorescence came into view, attached to the dark brown soil, like twinkling eyes.Yu Bai walked forward, the soil under his feet was terribly soft, as if he would sink into the mud with a little effort.But somehow, he suddenly stepped on a hard ground.

stone?

He froze for a moment, squatted down, and brushed away the wet mud on the stone with his fingers, trying to identify the blurred lines on it.

Borrowing the clear moonlight, Yu Bai looks around the mountain forest that he often visits.The moonlight was like a lamp, and he could easily see that there were many similar stones lying on the ground here. Usually these tombstones were buried deep in the ground, but now after such a heavy rain, they all appeared on the ground.

That's...the Unnamed Monument.

On the top of Baiyujing Mountain, the moon seems to be within reach.The shining stars come across thousands of miles of night, gently caring for the vegetation all over the mountains and plains. This may be the moment when Bai Yujing fits the legend the most.

Rong Cunxin, who hadn't slept most of the night, sat down beside him, and burped with a smell of grilled fish: "What are you thinking?"

Yu Bai looked up at the stars, his tone was indifferent: "I'm thinking of you."

Rong Cunxin rubbed her arms: "Is it so nasty, I'm still a little uncomfortable."

Yu Bai said coldly: "I was thinking that you are a liar."

Without waiting for Rong Cunxin to refute "Bloody mouth", he asked aloud: "What the hell is Bai Yujing?"

Rong Cunxin raised his eyebrows, as if he was not surprised by his question: "You have been here for two years, and you still don't know what Bai Yujing is? —— Naturally, it is where Xiuxian asked."

"Then why is there neither immortal nor Dao here?"

"Who said there is no? You and I, every word and deed, every day and night, every move and every style, are all proving the truth." Rong Cunxin found a walnut out of nowhere and coiled it, "As for the immortals - far away in the sky, close in front of us .”

This has been repeated countless times in the past two years.This time, Yu Bai did not roll his eyes like before, but nodded silently: "What about the others? There are so many immortals in Bai Yujing, why are you the only one now?"

"They... since they have knocked on the fairy gate, they will go to the Nine Heavens and will not appear in the world again." Rong Cunxin's voice gradually dropped, and he squinted his eyes and smiled again, "I'm different from them, I think it's better to be in the world." , I want to stay in the world for a while longer."

"They are dead."

Rong Cunxin blinked and looked at Yu Bai.

"Bai Yujing doesn't have any fairy gates at all. Those so-called immortals just hid in the barren mountains under the pretense of cultivating immortality and asking for the name 'Bai Yujing'." Yu Bai said quietly, "It's raining heavily tonight. , I saw that grave. They all died, in this so-called Baiyujing."

The starlight was still falling gently like water, Rong Cunxin squinted her eyes, put her two fingers together, and pinched a golden star from afar.

"No." Rong Cunxin said warmly, "Xiaobai, Bai Yujing is real."

"If it was just a paradise formed by a group of people who escaped from the world, how could the name of Bai Yujing spread so far? Even though the royal family has suppressed it for so many years, the legend has always existed?" Rong Cunxin did not take off the star, but put it down. raised arms.

"But those graves are..."

"They are not cowards escaping from mundane thinking, but pioneers who try to create Taoyuan by themselves."

Yu Bai paused slightly: "You used to be one of them."

Rong Cunxin waved his hand: "Oh, that's a long story."
