Abusive text substitutes to cultivate ruthless way

The darkness surged in like flowing water, and finally gathered in one place.

Frost and snow, fallen leaves... Even the sunlight was swallowed up by the darkness, leaving only a silhouette as straight as a bamboo in the void.

Mu Zhi stood not far away, looked at Gu Lingyun's back, and answered softly: "I didn't expect that I would come here."

If his heart were any harder and more ruthless, he should let Gu Lingyun die.

Instead of going all the way back to the Eastern Desert, looking for a hope that is almost hopeless in the desert.

The sound fell and echoed in the darkness, setting off an invisible ripple.

Gu Lingyun's clothes swayed a bit, as if he wanted to look back at Mu Zhi.But before he turned around, he stopped again.

Want to see, but dare not.

Gu Lingyun turned his back to Mu Zhi and asked hesitantly, "Then...why did you come?"

Mu Zhi's tone was calm and low: "Because I don't want to owe you."

Not just don't want to owe.

More importantly, he couldn't pretend that nothing had happened after so many things happened.

After hearing Mu Zhi's answer, Gu Lingyun froze, and slowly tightened his fingers under the cover of his sleeves.

Is it because I don't want to owe him, or... I don't want to have any relationship with him anymore?

Gu Lingyun's throat was dry, and he forced out a sentence: "Isn't this good?"

In Gu Lingyun's view, this arrangement is the best - whether it is for him or Mu Zhi.

He used his life to make up for the mistakes of the past, and Mu Zhi can abandon everything in the past and practice the ruthless way without any worries.

When Mu Zhi heard Gu Lingyun explaining all this in such a light tone, a surge of anger subconsciously welled up in his heart, and he smiled angrily: "Do you think it's very good?" He took a step forward, his crow-colored hair Si swayed in mid-air, and asked in a voice, "But, have you ever asked me if I would like to?"

"Not everyone is like you, willing to take a life on their backs!"

Gu Lingyun had never been so at a loss like now. He wanted to explain, but his throat was blocked, and he couldn't utter a word.

He wanted to say: Mu Zhi, your heart is too soft, too easily shaken.With such a character, even if he cultivated the ruthless way, he would not be able to persevere until the end.With your character, you have to be pushed by someone before you can really harden your heart.

He wanted to say: I am willing to be the person who "pushes", this is my choice, and you don't have to have too much burden.

His thoughts turned back and forth, but Gu Lingyun didn't say a word, just lowered his head, like a prisoner who has done something wrong, waiting for the final judgment.

But he never thought about whether Mu Zhi needed to do this.

He just habitually imposed what he thought was "good" on Mu Zhi.

Mu Zhi's eyes gradually turned cold: "Gu Lingyun, you didn't know before, so let me tell you now——I don't need to be so nice."

Mu Zhi had never called Gu Lingyun by his first and last name like this.

In the past, when he was young and immature, he would cheerfully and crisply call out "Xianzun" with his sincere and admiring eyes.

Later, when he was disheartened, he would use a cold and distant tone, and would respectfully address him as "Eternal Bright Immortal Venerable".

This was the first time he uttered the three words "Gu Lingyun", as if he had engulfed all the emotions of these days in it, and blurted them all out.

Gu Lingyun hesitated to speak, and finally said only one sentence: "...I'm sorry."

Mu Zhi's mood gradually calmed down, his pupils sparkled with a crystal gleam, and he stared at Gu Lingyun without saying a word.

Gu Lingyun has never been so embarrassed as he is now, and he doesn't know where to put his hands.

After a long silence, it was he who took the initiative to break the strange atmosphere: "Mu Zhi, I... I just want to make up for you, I did a lot of things wrong, I..."

Mu Zhi turned his face to the side and interrupted him: "I know all this, you don't need to say any more."

Gu Lingyun stopped his voice and did not continue speaking.

From the moment he appeared on the stage, Gu Lingyun was in the position of a superior, he didn't need to speculate on other people's thoughts, he only needed to act according to his own thoughts, no one dared to speak out even if he was arbitrarily assertive.

Maybe after such a long time, he also forgot how to treat a person equally.

Now he understands.

But...it seems a bit late.

Mu Zhi's eyes swept over, taking in the uneasiness on Gu Lingyun's face.

In fact, he also had a lot of things to say, but when the words came to his mouth, there was only one sentence left: "Gu Lingyun, you are really too much."

There was a wave of waves in his eyes: "You are always like this, doing everything on your own initiative, and never asking if I need it."

The sound fell.

Gu Lingyun's fingers were clenched tightly, motionless, as if transformed into an ice sculpture.

In this case, no matter what the words are, they are too pale, and it is impossible to justify clearly, let alone obtain forgiveness.

"I'm sorry..." Gu Lingyun said with difficulty in a hoarse voice, "Mu Zhi, I just don't know how to make you forgive me."

Gu Lingyun knew that he had done something wrong.

When he was on the Changming Peak, he ignored Mu Zhi's feelings and hurt Mu Zhi in the choice after choice, so that Mu Zhi was disheartened, and finally jumped into the flames resolutely, and escaped from the fire. Nirvana rebirth.

Later, Gu Lingyun came to his senses and wanted to make up for his past mistakes.

But at that time, Mu Zhi's heart was already ashamed, and he turned to practice the way of ruthlessness, ruthless and desireless, and he didn't even have hatred.

After learning that Mu Zhi practiced the ruthless way, Gu Lingyun knew clearly that he would never be forgiven.

And that innocent, pure and flawless young man disappeared into the world in the flames, never to return.

Gu Lingyun didn't want to break Mu Zhi's ruthless way, he just wanted Mu Zhi to be well and not to be wronged again.

Therefore, he chose to let Mu Zhi kill himself to sever the last bit of affection.

This is the best ending.

However, Gu Lingyun also has a little selfishness.

Mu Zhi has cultivated the way of ruthlessness. If the way of ruthlessness is accomplished, it means that he will never fall in love with others again.Then, he was the only person Mu Zhi ever liked.

Gu Lingyun's eyes were heavy, as if he had suppressed all his emotions under the water, forming a turbulent undercurrent, flowing past silently.

He hid it well and didn't reveal a iota of it.

Mu Zhi sighed silently: "... Forget it."

Gu Lingyun's eyebrows twitched: "Forget what?"

Mu Zhi turned his eyes away: "You have failed me and hurt me, but now a life is worth a life, so it's not a debt to each other."

Gu Lingyun rolled the words "neither owed each other" between his lips and teeth, and he felt a sense of haste.

"How can we not owe each other?" He lost his position, and a little red light appeared in his eyes, "Mu Zhi, I don't..."

He still wanted to say the three words "I'm not allowed" as before.

But when the words came to his mouth, they were swallowed again.

In this space of inner demons, he is no longer the Changming Immortal Venerable, and Mu Zhi is no longer the innocent and carefree young man he used to be.

Two people are equal.

And Gu Lingyun could no longer say "No" in a superior tone.

Gu Lingyun's expression changed, and there was some pleading in his tone: "Mu Zhi, can you stop doing this?"

Mu Zhi said coldly: "I've made up my mind, so there's no need to talk about it."

Gu Lingyun stood there quietly, while the darkness surged around him, in which there seemed to be hidden monsters devouring people.

Countless voices rang in Gu Lingyun's ears.

—leave him.

——If you leave him here, you can never separate.

This is Gu Lingyun's inner demon, tempting him, trying to make him lose control completely.

Under the phantom sounds, Gu Lingyun struggled, but finally calmed down gradually.

His voice was jerky: "Mu Zhi, since you have already made up your mind, then go ahead and don't be soft-hearted."

"I don't deserve your soft heart."

A black mist hovered around Gu Lingyun's side, he raised his right hand with difficulty, as if he was suppressing another impulse in his body.

A flash of white light flashed across the darkness, splitting the darkness into two, and a passage to leave appeared.

Gu Lingyun said: "You... let's go."

Mu Zhi didn't move, but asked, "What about you?"

A dark shadow surged behind Gu Lingyun: "Of course I stay here."

This is his demon.

As long as the inner demons are not eliminated, this space will not disappear for a day.

This may be his punishment. In the empty and dark space, he tasted remorse and regret day after day.

Gu Lingyun took a deep look at Mu Zhi, as if he wanted to engrave this scene in his heart.

Mu Zhi turned around and walked towards the exit.

One step, two steps...

Just as he was approaching the exit, Mu Zhi remembered something, stopped suddenly, turned around and asked a question: "Gu Lingyun, will you regret it?"

Gu Lingyun was stunned for a moment: "Regret?"

Gu Lingyun's sword is very fast, and there will be blood when it is drawn out of the sheath, so every time the sword is drawn, there will be no hesitation.

His heart is like a sword in his hand, once he is out of the sheath, he will not hesitate.So, he will not regret what has happened.

Gu Lingyun has always been like this, and has never tasted the qualifications to regret it.

But now, he has personally realized what "regret" is.

Regret is bitter and lonely.

It's the insomnia after night after night, and the reminiscence of the past time and time again.

If only he had done so then.

If only he had trusted Mu Zhi a little more at that time.

in case……

There are few regret medicines in the world.

Gu Lingyun said: "Mu Zhi, you and I both know that no matter how much you regret it, you can't change everything."

Mu Zhi looked away.

Gu Lingyun stood in the darkness with no movement on his face, but from his figure, he could see the pain and sorrow wrapped around his body.

Mu Zhi's thoughts moved, and he asked again: "Why did you reject that Mu Zhi before?"

Obviously in this world, Gu Lingyun can fulfill regrets, make up for incompleteness, and give himself a perfect dream.

But he rejected all of these, preferring to perish in darkness and emptiness, rather than immerse himself in false illusions.

Gu Lingyun's voice was a little soft: "Because, I can't forget you."

If he chooses the "Xiao Mu Zhi" who was born in the illusion of the heart, it means that he has voluntarily forgotten this Mu Zhi who has been hurt and fell into despair.

This is not fair.

Gu Lingyun said: "Your pain is still there, so how can I enjoy it overnight."

If you haven't experienced it yourself, how can you say you feel the same way?

Only by experiencing everything that Mu Zhi has experienced one by one, can he know the pain of the other party.

Gu Lingyun has always been like this, abiding by his own rules, he wished that the pain would be several times more so that it would be clear.
