The salted fish attack made the master carry the cub
Chapter 103 Locking the Demon
Daoist Huasheng looks upright, not benevolent, but he is indeed a bit more gentle than Zong Wu, and a little more stable than Nan Tianzun.
Dressed in silk and brocade clothes, the color is dignified and plain, not plain, but rather luxurious.
As soon as he appeared, the surrounding spiritual power became more intense.
Qi Wushen knew that this was caused by the luck of heaven.
only……
He couldn't figure it out, how could Hua Sheng Dao Zun, who seemed to be a very gentle person, force Master to practice the Ruthless Dao?
Qi Wushen leaned over again and made a bow, respectfully said: "I don't know why the master asked me to come here this time?"
He took out the hairpin sent by Nan Tianzun, and presented it with both hands.
Qi Wushen's idea was very simple, he and Daoist Huasheng had never met before, and he handed over the jade hairpin to prove his identity.
Who knew that Zun didn't even look at the hairpin at all, his gaze was always on him.
There was a bit of kindness in that gaze, not the kindness of a superior to the common people, but more like the expression of a father looking at his child.
Qi Tingyi never looked at him like that, Qi Wushen was made uncomfortable by that gaze, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it.Daoist Huasheng put away his hand that was about to touch the young man's head, and said softly: "I still remember the first time I saw you, you were still a baby who just fell to the ground. I didn't expect you to grow so big in the blink of an eye."
"Master Zu has seen me?" Qi Wushen was a little surprised.
Falling to the ground?Was it when he crossed the catastrophe, or... earlier?
Daoist Huasheng sighed softly, with some unclear nostalgia in his tone, and said again: "Before I answer you, I want to tell a story first, I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
-
The story of Huasheng Daozun is related to a goddess.
There are many female immortals in the Nine Heavens, but they are either called Xian'e or Xianzi, or refer to the sect as Zhi'e and Le'e.Counting to the high-ranking ones, they are commensurate with their positions or immortal titles, such as XX Zun, XX sect master and so on.
This was the first time Qi Wushen heard of the title Goddess, and he asked curiously: "I don't know what kind of person is qualified to be called a Goddess?"
The gentle smile on Huasheng Daoist's face retracted, and he closed his eyelids, as if it took a lot of effort to speak.
"There is only one person in this world who can be called a goddess."
"Oh?"
"At the very beginning, there was no substance or form, the universe was chaotic, the heaven and the earth had not yet opened, and there was only one qi of heaven. Then one qi was transformed into three clears, and the way of heaven was divided into three."
Qi Wushen nodded, he had read the passage that the Daoist Huasheng said in Taoist books as early as in the dust world, the five congenitals, the infinite and the infinite, and then the heaven and the earth were born, and all things were born.
The master in front of him is the only one among the three Daoist priests who can be found out of the Qi of the Heavenly Dao, and he has a very strong background.
"And then?" Qi Wushen saw that after Huasheng Taoist finished speaking, his eyes closed again, and he took the initiative to ask.
The expression of Daoist Huasheng added a touch of nostalgia and pain, he seemed to be caught in deep memories and self-blame.
He took a deep breath and said again: "People in the world only know that one breath transforms the Three Purities, but they don't know that one breath will collide. There is also a goddess who was born at the beginning of the universe at the same time as the three of us."
The Goddess in Huasheng Daoist's mouth is named Tayue, and she is also the pink friend who died early in Nan Tianzun's mouth.
Because of a fate at the beginning of his incarnation, Taoist Huasheng paid far more attention and care to Tayue than others, but the Goddess Tayue was obviously different.
"She always said: immortality, endless life, this is really too boring. Later, at the beginning of the morning and evening, the three realms of dust, demon and fairy were established, and they were divided into Jiuchongtian and Minghe Youfu. We were also busy for a short time. But when everything is in order and order returns, more and more immortals in the Nine Heavens will either ascend or be born, and all of this will return to the idleness of the first world and the beginning of the world without us doing it ourselves."
It has been a long time since the beginning of the world, the vicissitudes of the sea, the sun and the moon, in the mouth of Huasheng Daoist, it is only a flick of a finger.
Qi Wushen knew that it was only because they had endless lifespans. People in the dust realm always hoped to live a long life, but for some people, a long life was not a hope, but a curse.
"And then?" Qi Wushen asked.
Daoist Huasheng sighed: "She said: It's too boring to be immutable in the Nine Heavens. She wants to experience the most sincere love and trust in the world, and enter reincarnation as a mortal. I told her that the most sincere love and trust are meaningless. For the Dao, so in order to persuade Tayue, we made a bet."
The small hammer hit Qi Wushen on the top of his head, and he quickly asked: "What bet?"
Daoist Huasheng sighed again: "I bet feelings will only be a drag, and ruthlessness is the way. If a person is ruthless and has no thoughts, he will definitely become the top powerhouse in the world."
Qi Wushen's hand trembled violently.
Daoist Huasheng didn't notice Qi Wushen's abnormality, and continued to narrate: "In order to fulfill our bet, I went to the dusty realm to pick up an orphan whose lifespan has expired, and took him as a disciple, not allowing him to act like an ordinary person. If there are distracting thoughts of the seven emotions, then carefully teach them and guide them to cultivate the Tao."
A bet is just a bet.
How, how could it be just a bet?
Qi Wushen's hands trembled more violently, his whole arm was shaking, and his heart felt like being grabbed by a hand, with a dull pain.
"She was looking forward to the result of the bet at first, but it takes a long time to raise a child to become a talent. Her curiosity about the result did not overwhelm her desire for love and faith in Chenyu in the end."
"She is determined to go down to earth, but she is different from ordinary immortals. She is a goddess who was born in a rush of energy. After all, she is just a rush of energy. I told her that if she goes down to earth and re-enters reincarnation, she will lose the protection of heaven and will be reincarnated with reincarnation. And gradually dissipate, at most several thousand years, she will turn into a breath between heaven and earth again, and cease to exist."
"But she is willing to give up her immortal status as a goddess, and also enters reincarnation, like a moth to a flame."
"I think she was so wrong, so after she left, I made up my mind to prove her wrong, so I put more energy into our bet, and I want to truly cultivate a ruthless, thoughtless, The strongest disciple in the world."
"In the first 100 years she left, I think she will regret it sooner or later. In the second 100 years she left, I think she will come back sooner or later. In the 3 years she left, I think she will regret it in a few hundred years. Realize your mistake."
"Every ten lives, I will send someone to ask if she regrets it, but her answer is always no regrets. I believe that as long as I wait long enough, she will definitely regret it. But..."
"I didn't wait for her to turn around in the end. I don't know how many years after she left, I regretted it."
"You can become the strongest in the world by being ruthless and thoughtless? I found that all of this was ridiculously wrong. I missed her so much that when I closed my eyes, I saw her shadow. Only then did I realize that the original bet was just a Leave her introduction, the result is not important at all. And... I can't be ruthless, why should I ask others to be ruthless?"
"Because of missing her, I used my own flesh and blood to refine the sky-peeping mirror, looking at her appearance through the mirror all day and all night. I smiled when I saw her when she was a girl, and watched her laugh and play with her friends Scolding, watching her love for someone for the first time, watching her shy and ignorant as a married woman for the first time, watching her give birth to her first child in that life."
"Stillness, every movement, every frown and smile are all scenery that I have never seen before. At that time, I realized that I might be crazy. I forced myself not to think about her and look at her, so I started to retreat, and I threw myself away. I went to the small world to practice, but I couldn't calm down at all. If I didn't see her for less than a stick of incense, I felt like I was crazy."
"When I opened the sky-peeping mirror again, I found that everything had changed. Her husband's family was in trouble, and she was forced to be a slave and suffered all kinds of bullying. I love her, pity her, and hope that she will repent and be willing to return to Jiuchonghea Come to me. As long as she regrets it, I would rather go against the law of heaven and keep her by my side."
"After so many lives, her soul is fragile enough. I know that this is the life. After this life, she will no longer exist. I wanted to beg her to come back, but I couldn't hold back my face, so I sent someone to find her .I am willing to use the humblest words I can think of to pray for her return."
"I thought there would be a miracle, but the result was still the same. She didn't want to come back. She would rather have a short but gorgeous life like a summer flower than have an endless lifespan."
From that bet, Qi Wushen began to cry silently.
Speaking of the final choice of Goddess Stepping on the Moon, Daoist Huasheng burst into tears.
He whimpered the last few words, his voice hoarse as if his vocal cords were torn.
"I ultimately failed to prevent her from dissipating."
"The hairpin in your hand is the only thing she left me."
"Since she left, I have gone crazy and started endless retreats."
He said again: "You are really similar to Tayue, very similar."
-
When he left, Qi Wushen was in a state where his soul was pulled away.
He forgot to go to Burning Incense Workshop to find tranquilizing incense, and he didn't even use the flying magic weapon, so he stumbled on the way back to Cangwuxuan, lost his mind, like a walking dead.
Qi Wushen's tears were streaming down, but he didn't know who it was for.
He finally understood why the hairpin in Daoist Huasheng's hand was so familiar. It turned out that it was the only accessory in the last few years of her mother's life.
He finally knew why the master had met his father. Zong Wu told him back then that his father accidentally discovered him when he was looking for someone in the lower realm.He was still thinking, how could there be such a coincidence?It turned out that the person Zong Wu was looking for was his mother.
He finally knew why Zong Wu hesitated when he asked Master if he remembered the first time the two met.He thought his ascension to the Nine Heavens was the first time he met him, but his master had witnessed everything about him through the sky-peeping mirror when he was born.
It turned out that the fate between him and Master started much earlier than he imagined.
original……
Qi Wushen remembered a lot of details, knew a lot of things that he didn't know before, and learned a little bit more about Master.
But...he couldn't be happier.
Why?Why do you treat Master like this?
In order to keep the goddess of stepping on the moon to relieve boredom?
In order to prove the ruthless party's bet?
"At that time, I would bring Zong Wu with me every time I looked at Dust Realm. At first, he didn't react much. Even though I was looking at Tianjing, he still focused on practicing, as if he didn't see anything. But until the first cry sounded, he Get drawn in and things change."
"He would come up to me while I was watching. I've never seen him interested in anyone or anything. When the telescope was first made, I didn't fully realize how ridiculously wrong I was, I just think Zong Wu's change is very dangerous, and it will prove that it is impossible to be ruthless without thoughts, so I am very panicked."
"I was afraid that he would prove me wrong. I was afraid that if I was wrong, Tayue would never come back. So, on the ninth day, I took him to the small world and forced him to retreat in the small world for a hundred years. He threw him to the small world, but I was still worried, so on the tenth day, I brought him back and forced him to drink the snow drink grass."
"I know Xue Yincao will hurt his body, but I am afraid. I only have Tayue in my eyes, and I don't care about others at all. After Tayue left, I spent another hundred years in the small world before I realized that I second mistake."
"I'm sorry Zong Wu, I'm sorry for the child I picked up back then."
Daoist Huasheng cried until his tears flowed down his cheeks, but Qi Wushen just numbly shook off his extended hand.
What's the use of a belated apology?
In their eyes, Master is just a plaything.
It's just a gadget that comes and goes when you call it.
It's just a failure to prove that the ruthless way goes against the sky.
When everything is disillusioned, everyone can withdraw safely.
Only Master can't.
Their whim and repentance for their mistakes are nothing more than a sentence of "I regret it", what are the consequences?What about the consequences of practicing the ruthless way?
In the end, Zong Wu did not become the strongest in the world that Huasheng Taoist hoped for.
Because he has not been ruthless and thoughtless, and because drinking snow grass hurts his body, which limits his cultivation.
"Master, shut up, I don't want to hear it anymore." Qi Wushen shook off the man's hand, turned and left mercilessly, but was grabbed again.
The memory flashes back from the cry.
Qi Wushen's tears fell even more heavily, his eyes were blurred by the tears, he didn't even know where he had gone, everything depended on the instinct of his body.
Countless voices sounded in his mind, he had pained, hated, he was dissatisfied, he was resentful, he...
He was distressed.
Master is also a living being, in their eyes... what is it?Just because they have endless life spans, can they treat others with such an "arrogant" attitude?
At this moment, a clear voice sounded.
"you……"
Is the master.
Qi Wushen desperately wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, he tried his best to make himself see clearly, and tried his best not to let Zong Wu notice his abnormality.
But... how is it possible?
Zong Wu said: "Didn't you go to find something to decorate Cangwu Xuan? Why did you come back so early? And..." Empty hands?
Qi Wushen's nose was very sore, and the tears were finally held back.
He looked up, and saw Zong Wu under the plum tree, all in white, with his belly straightened out, his fingertips resting on the red plums that had turned into little spiritual power.
Zong Wu put down his hands, frowned, and walked towards him with eyes full of impatience.
No.
Master can't be worried.
Qi Wushen forced himself to laugh, but it was even uglier than crying.
The tears that Jiang Jiang could hold back couldn't stop anymore, they flowed out in a rush, and his words were incoherent.
"Yes, Master, yes, I was looking for decorations, but, but, I was halfway through the search, I, disciple... I... I really miss you so much, I think you are thinking about it. I didn't want to delay for a second, so... I ran back quickly."
Qi Wushen rushed in front of the master, he hugged Zong Wu, buried his head in his neck, and pressed Zong Wu's head on his.
Under the plum tree, the bodies of indigo and plain white embrace each other tightly, as if there are only two of them left in this world, as if behind them is a world of ice and snow, unbearably cold, and they must hug each other very tightly so that they can grab each other Only with a little heat can we live well in this world.
"What's wrong?" Zong Wu raised his hand to caress Qi Wushen's temples that were soaked in tears.
Qi Wushen didn't speak, but cried more and more wantonly.
The corner of Zong Wu's white shirt was wet, and the boy's tears hit him directly.
Qi Wushen was so choked up that he couldn't speak, Zong Wu patted him on the back over and over again to comfort him until very late.
-
"More than a year ago, I went out of the customs for a short time. I told Zong Wu all this, the matter of stepping on the moon, and the bet back then. I told him, you can't do it again. If you practice the ruthless way, the ruthless way is wrong."
"I told him that drinking grass in the snow would damage his body and limit his cultivation. I told him that no one can be ruthless and thoughtless, and no one should be ruthless. supreme, meaningless."
"Some things were realized after thousands of years of meditation in the small world after retreating. Some things I have always known, but dare not admit. After Zong Wu heard it, he was greatly stimulated. He told me, I will not give up the ruthless way."
"At that time, I realized that the children I raised back then had their own ideas."
"This is the second mistake I've made in a long time, and it's still outrageous. Although it was just a bet at first, after being with you for so long, I have long regarded Zong Wu as my own child, but I have harmed this child .Since then, I have also approached Zong Wu several times, but he never saw me again."
"He hates me? It doesn't matter if he hates me, at least the hatred is not nothingness. Even if he hates me, it means that the ruthless way can no longer be practiced. But later, I discovered that what he treats me is not hatred, but..."
"Fear."
"For me, the way of ruthlessness is a gamble. But for him, it is everything. He is afraid that he has feelings, and he is afraid that he will destroy the way. For him, ruthlessness and no thoughts are the status quo that he has long been accustomed to. , all this is unknown."
"He has long relied on the ruthless way, and he is afraid of his sensual self."
Qi Wushen's voice became hoarse, he was so weeping that he couldn't speak, he remembered that more than a year ago, Zong Wu met Huasheng Taoist once, and then the master was depressed for a while.
Qi Wushen regretted it.
If he could go back to that day, it would be great if he could hug Master.
Master already knew about his life experience.
Master does not need anyone's comfort, Master is much stronger than he imagined.
In the middle of the night, on Cangwuxuan's bed, the lights were turned off, but the young man's scorching gaze was still fixed on Zong Wu's face.
"Master, I will accompany you for the rest of my life, okay? Even if the way of heaven collapses, even if the world ends, even if we live forever, let's not separate, okay?"
He doesn't want anything now, he just wants to hug the person in his arms, and then...
Never let go.
-
Zong Wu didn't know what kind of illness the little apprentice suddenly fell into.
For several days in a row, Qi Wushen stared at him closely, did not go on duty, and did nothing else, except to look at him, as if he was worried about losing him.
Fortunately, on Ji Yuan's side, there was nothing that Qi Wushen had to do, so he generously promised a holiday.
Zong Wu doesn't really care whether Qi Wushen goes on duty or not. Although he has a teacher-student relationship, he has always indulged in education.
Zong Wu just felt puzzled.
Until one day, he saw something familiar in Qi Wushen's changed clothes.
— Hairpins.
"Have you gone to see Daoist Huasheng?" Zong Wu looked at Qi Wushen with a questioning attitude in his eyes.
"Hmm..." Qi Wushen responded with lowered head.
"What did he tell you?" Zong Wu frowned, his eyes sharper than before.
"He said... He said something about Master's past, the key is..." Qi Wushen didn't intend to hide it, he just wanted to keep it a secret.
"What's the key?" Zong Wu asked.
Qi Wushen wrapped his arms around Zong Wu's upper abdomen, leaned his head on the shoulder of the master, and said in a sticky tone: "The key is to let us live a good life, let the apprentice love you well, and..."
"What else?"
"There is also a child who loves us together." Qi Wushen kissed Zong Wu's face, and the ring was a little tighter.
-
Tired of crooked for a few days, the little apprentice finally saw him not so closely.
Qi Wushen found a new "career".
"Here, here, put the swing over here."
"Be careful with that, it's a fish caught in the Tianhe River, it took a long time to catch it!"
In just one morning, Cangwuxuan changed drastically.
The original snow-covered scene is now a rockery with flowing water, green lotus and green willows, and a rockery with swimming fish.It is no longer cold, but it is full of spring and vitality.
Zong Wu sat on the rattan recliner specially prepared for him by his young apprentice, half lying in the flowers.
The flamingo landed leisurely, pacing with disgust on its face: "Why did this courtyard become like this?"
He said again: "Zong Wu, when did your taste become so bad?"
Zong Wu propped up his upper body, with a bit of helplessness in his words: "It's not me, it's him."
He pointed to the outside of the wall, there was the sound of knocking, and the sound of Qi Wushen directing the little immortals to be busy.
The flamingo showed a disdainful look, and said disdainfully: "It's nothing to do."
Zong Wu was silent, his face was stained with a hint of worry.
He said again: "Do you still remember where my avatar shell is?"
"How many years has it been useless? What are you looking for that shell for?"
"ask clearly."
"Ask what? Ask whom?"
"Huasheng Daoist."
Zong Wu paused for a moment and said again: "Ask me clearly what he said to him."
-
Zong Wu is not the kind of person who would give up easily, so he took advantage of Qi Wushen's absence that night and asked Nan Tianzun where Huasheng Taoist retreated.On the second day, the flamingo returned to Cangwuxuan with the news of the avatar.
"Still in the same place." The flamingo said.
"En." Zong Wu nodded.
In the afternoon, after lunch, Zong Wu went back to his room early.
"I'm sleepy, take a nap."
"Eh?" Qi Wushen was puzzled, Master obviously didn't have the habit of taking a nap, why did he suddenly want to take a nap?Is the child getting tired more easily because of his age?
Qi Wushen originally wanted to ask, but Master's breathing quickly became calmer, he closed the door gently, walked back to the yard, and told the busy little Xianmi to rest first, and not to make a sound.
After Qi Wushen finished all this, he returned to the room.
He calmly paced to the bed, lifted the quilt, and shrank in, but accidentally pressed Zong Wu's fingertips.
"Master, does it hurt you?" Qi Wushen went to touch Zong Wu's hand, but the other party didn't respond at all.
"Master, Master?"
Qi Wushen leaned forward, his movement was not small, but Zong Wu closed his eyes, still didn't respond at all.
It's like... the consciousness is out of the body.
-
In the hut, Zong Wu woke up from his separation. He looked at the surrounding environment uncertainly. There were no wooden floors, wooden beds, wooden doors, and not even a window.
It seems familiar, but it feels more strange.
"How are you getting used to it?" The flamingo leaned forward and said again, "I just cleaned it up casually yesterday, and the dust is still very heavy. However, you are not pregnant, so you shouldn't be so picky."
"Yeah." Zong Wu sat up and straightened his clothes.
There was a bronze mirror on the wooden table. He wiped off the dust on the bronze mirror, and an ordinary face was reflected in the mirror.The eyebrows and eyes are not prominent, and the proportion of facial features is not too big. Looking at the whole face, there is no memory point, but it also meets the requirements of a doppelganger just right, which can make people forget it at a glance.
Zong Wu tidied up his clothes. This clone was wearing plain white clothes and cloth shoes. His appearance was the same as his appearance, and he had no memory of it.
"You don't have to follow me." He shook his clothes and said to Bai Bai.
"Okay." The flamingo kicked its legs in unison and disappeared into the sky.
The afternoon nap can be up to an hour, any more will definitely attract the attention of the young apprentice. In addition, maintaining the avatar requires a lot of cultivation, and he is still in the recovery period, so he needs to speed up.
He opened the door and walked out of the wooden house, looked around for a while, and then used spiritual power to drive, vaguely found the location where Huasheng Taoist retreated.
——Fortunately, not far from the wooden house.
In order to save spiritual power, Zong Wu decided to walk there.
First bypassing a narrow river, and then walking through a few peach trees, the cliff wall where Huasheng Daoist retreated finally came into view.
There are many caves on the cliff, Zong Wu went to count the caves where the Taoist retreated according to the place Nan Tianzun told him, but just halfway through the count, the clear voice of a young man suddenly sounded behind him.
"Fellow Taoist, what a coincidence!"
Zong Wu froze all over, and turned his head stiffly.
Why did the little apprentice come here?
He was waiting for the opportunity to sneak out to meet the Daoist Huasheng, could it be...Qi Wushen was also waiting for the opportunity to sneak out to meet the Taoist Huasheng?
The appearance of the little apprentice here means that he will not soon find out that he pretends to be asleep and is out of his body. The only limitation now is the problem of spiritual power.
Zong Wu stabilized his mind, bowed to Qi Wushen, and replied politely and distantly: "Little friend Wushen, it is indeed a coincidence."
Zong Wu's thoughts changed. He thought that if the little apprentice wanted to see Daoist Huasheng, he would disappear this time.
The left and right avatars are around here, if you want to see Huasheng Taoist next time, just take advantage of the nap time and get out of your body once.
In the current situation, more important than meeting Hua Sheng Dao Zun is...cover the vest!
Daobai is the name of Zong Wu's avatar.
This avatar was actually made very early, but Zong Wu's official duties in Xianting were not busy at all, so the avatar had been collecting dust in the corner all the time.
The first use of this avatar has a deep relationship with Qi Wushen.
Because of Qi Tingyi's matter, when he first entered Jiuchongtian, the little apprentice didn't like Zong Wu at all. They were more like strangers living in the same space, just emptying the title of master and apprentice.
To what extent does Qi Wushen not wait to see Zong Wu?
He would read the secret methods used in cultivation and those issued by the Immortal Book Academy, but as long as Zong Wu's hands were touched, he would not even touch them and asked Lin Yangfeng to throw them away.
Coincidentally, Lin Yangfeng is also careless, and every time he encounters such a situation, he will scold Qi Wushen and waste everything.
Does Zong Wu always explain the little apprentice's prejudices? First, he thinks it is unnecessary, and second...he doesn't know.
If you don't explain it, you don't explain it, but Zong Wu's concern for the little apprentice is still there.
Qi Wushen's first entry into Jiuchongtian was bumpy and bumpy, and he always lacked someone to guide him. Not only that, Zong Wu also found that he had a faint tendency to be entangled by demons.
Zong Wu wants to save him, but the person who saves Qi Wushen must not be him. Only then does Zong Wu think of the dusty shell that has been covered for a long time.
He changed his identity to "Daobai", approaching and caring for Qi Wushen as a fellow Taoist.
Daobai gave Qi Wushen a lot of help. From life to immortality, he is both a teacher and a friend. It can be said that Qi Wushen's transformation from the ghostly appearance when he first entered the Jiuchongtian to the present is inseparable from Daobai's company.
Daobai walked with Qi Wushen for a long time, until later, when Qi Wushen's attitude towards Zong Wu eased, Daobai gradually left the stage.
In Qi Wushen's memory, Daobai is a single person, and a person who is very important to him.
Back in the world of dust, the red plum handkerchief that Qi Wushen used to wipe off the blood from the corner of his mouth was a gift from Daobai.
Zong Wu recalled the conversation between the two at that time.
——"That handkerchief, do you always wear it?"
——"Naturally, a small gift from an "old friend", of course you should treasure it carefully. "
Zong Wu actually didn't care about Qi Wushen's embarrassment after knowing that Daobai was his doppelganger, he just felt...
When the little apprentice came to Jiuchongtian, he didn't have many friends. Daobai was the first few who warmed Qi Wushen and helped him gain a foothold in Jiuchongtian.
From the title of old friend and the past of the two, it can be seen that Qi Wushen treats this friend sincerely. If you tell him that the friend does not exist...
What would the little apprentice think?Will you be sad?Will it be disillusioned?
Thinking of this, Zong Wu once again firmed up his idea of covering his vest tightly.
He stepped forward, smiled friendlyly, and said softly: "Little friend Wushen, we have not seen each other for a long time."
To this day, Zong Wu's experience in Daobai's shell is vivid. Daobai is a slightly softer person than Zongwu himself, but also alienated and bounded. What's wrong.
What's more, Qi Wushen should also come to see Daoist Huasheng, and he probably wouldn't chat with Daobai for too long, so he made himself feel at ease.
Qi Wushen had a strong smile on his face, maybe it's been a long time since we saw each other, he intimately took Daobai's forearm, and the two of them were very close to each other.
Although Qi Wushen has always had a youthful air about him, he is actually tall, with a narrow waist and tight back, like a willow tree with slender branches.
As for Daobai's shell, just like his ordinary appearance and clothes, his height is also ordinary, neither tall nor short, and he doesn't stand out from the crowd.
The upper body of the two people, one tall and one short, almost touched each other, and they were very close.
Zong Wu glanced at Qi Wushen, faintly feeling that something was wrong?
If there is such a distance between his true self and Qi Wushen, it is understandable, but now...
He just said, is the distance between them too... close?
Perhaps this is their "young people" way of communication, Zong Wuqian recalled that Qi Wushen and that junior from Ji's family didn't seem to be so close... right?
Could it be that in Qi Wushen's eyes, Taoism is so important...?
Zong Wu pulled out his arm slightly, and Qi Wushen felt a little pain there, even though it was a separate body, it felt like they were in common.
The little apprentice didn't give him a chance to pull away at all, and hugged him even tighter.
"Fellow Daoist, I haven't seen the two of us since I came back from the catastrophe. Thinking of the old days when I had a drink, enjoyed flowers, climbed trees and picked peaches, I miss it very much. I don't know if Fellow Daoist Bai has time now, you and I Two people, get together, what do you think?"
Zong Wu: "..."
The little apprentice changed his mind and didn't want to see Daoist Huasheng?
Zong Wu held back for a long time, and finally uttered two words.
"also may."
-
The cabin where Zong Wu woke up from his avatar was also the cabin where Daobai practiced and lived, so Zong Wu naturally didn't dare to take Qi Wushen there.
Although Bai Bai had cleaned it up briefly, the hut was still covered with heavy dust, and flaws could be seen at a glance.
Zong Wu stopped, and asked Qi Wushen: "Little friend Wushen, how about going to the river to put the lamp?"
From the cliff to the hut there is a small river, which is very shallow and is a branch of the Tianhe River.Once when the two of them took a night tour with candles, they saw many lanterns floating on the river. Qi Wushen was very curious, and after inquiring, he found out that this is a very small custom in Jiuchongtian.
After some immortals ascended, they could no longer see their relatives and friends in the dust realm, so they folded their lamps and put them into the Tianhe River. the imperial city.They believe that the best wishes can be brought to relatives and friends in the world when the lanterns flow through the dusty realm.
Qi Wushen also has many relatives and friends in the world of dust. Although those people are no longer alive, he is still moved.
"The lanterns also flow through the Youfu of the Styx River, and the deceased relatives should also receive them." Daobai said so.
"Yes, is it?"
Since then, Zong Wu has accompanied Qi Wushen to light a lamp for his family every year as Daobai, and has never stopped for so many years.
Until Qi Wushen went down to the lower realm to cross the catastrophe.
"That's fine, I'll listen to you...Fellow Daoist." Qi Wushen still had a bright smile on his face.
Zong Wu suddenly realized that the bright smile of the little apprentice was not directed at him alone.
There was a strange feeling in my heart, and looking at the arms of the two who had not separated after meeting, Zong Wu had no way to continue to comfort himself. This is the way of communication between "young people".
Qi Wushen waved to him again and said, "Fellow Daobai, just wait here, I'll break the lamp!"
The little apprentice finally let go of his arm, Qi Wushen looked at the peaches on the tree, jumped up, broke off one, put it in the clear stream to wash away the floating dust on the surface, and stuffed it into Daobai's hand again.
"Fellow Daoist, eat first! I'll go back as soon as I go!"
Zong Wu held the peach and didn't say anything, he looked at Qi Wushen's busy back, and felt a little...strange?
They were still busy buying for their home in the morning, but in a blink of an eye, they were able to seamlessly have fun with Daobai.
The little apprentice was originally warm, and...it wasn't a big deal at all, why should he care?
Zong Wu suddenly noticed something was wrong, he seemed to be jealous of Daobai.
But...it's obviously him, why do you feel like this?
Zong Wu was a little annoyed.
He couldn't find the reason, so he could only attribute it to the fact that he became sensitive after not practicing the ruthless way.
With so many years of experience in folding lanterns, Qi Wushen started this task very quickly. In less than a stick of incense, Zong Wu didn't even finish eating a peach, so Qi Wushen walked towards Zong Wu holding a lantern full of folded lanterns Come.
"Why does it seem like there are too many?"
"The other two are for my master and my child."
Zong Wu stared at the lantern in Qi Wushen's arms, opened his lips slightly, only to hear Qi Wushen say again: "By the way, Daoist Daoist, I haven't told you yet, I am with my master."
Zong Wu: "Yes."
He paused, thinking about how to answer as a friend, and after a while he squeezed out two words jerky.
"Congratulations."
The smile on Qi Wushen's face seemed to be radiant, he took Daobai's hand along the way, and said again: "Fellow Daobai, I really want to tell you everything about me and Master, I don't know Would you like to."
Zong Wu: "..."
Can he say "no"?
-
When Qi Wushen was telling the story, his face was filled with that kind of warm light.
He really talked a lot, so much that Zong Wu doubted several times whether his spiritual power could last until Qi Wushen finished speaking.
"Master's reaction was very strong. Even though I didn't know anything at the time, I still guessed that the child was mine."
"Is there any accident? There must be."
"Let's not talk about the kids, since my father and the whole family are gone, I don't even think about who I'm going to have any kind of intimacy with anyone.
Dressed in silk and brocade clothes, the color is dignified and plain, not plain, but rather luxurious.
As soon as he appeared, the surrounding spiritual power became more intense.
Qi Wushen knew that this was caused by the luck of heaven.
only……
He couldn't figure it out, how could Hua Sheng Dao Zun, who seemed to be a very gentle person, force Master to practice the Ruthless Dao?
Qi Wushen leaned over again and made a bow, respectfully said: "I don't know why the master asked me to come here this time?"
He took out the hairpin sent by Nan Tianzun, and presented it with both hands.
Qi Wushen's idea was very simple, he and Daoist Huasheng had never met before, and he handed over the jade hairpin to prove his identity.
Who knew that Zun didn't even look at the hairpin at all, his gaze was always on him.
There was a bit of kindness in that gaze, not the kindness of a superior to the common people, but more like the expression of a father looking at his child.
Qi Tingyi never looked at him like that, Qi Wushen was made uncomfortable by that gaze, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it.Daoist Huasheng put away his hand that was about to touch the young man's head, and said softly: "I still remember the first time I saw you, you were still a baby who just fell to the ground. I didn't expect you to grow so big in the blink of an eye."
"Master Zu has seen me?" Qi Wushen was a little surprised.
Falling to the ground?Was it when he crossed the catastrophe, or... earlier?
Daoist Huasheng sighed softly, with some unclear nostalgia in his tone, and said again: "Before I answer you, I want to tell a story first, I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
-
The story of Huasheng Daozun is related to a goddess.
There are many female immortals in the Nine Heavens, but they are either called Xian'e or Xianzi, or refer to the sect as Zhi'e and Le'e.Counting to the high-ranking ones, they are commensurate with their positions or immortal titles, such as XX Zun, XX sect master and so on.
This was the first time Qi Wushen heard of the title Goddess, and he asked curiously: "I don't know what kind of person is qualified to be called a Goddess?"
The gentle smile on Huasheng Daoist's face retracted, and he closed his eyelids, as if it took a lot of effort to speak.
"There is only one person in this world who can be called a goddess."
"Oh?"
"At the very beginning, there was no substance or form, the universe was chaotic, the heaven and the earth had not yet opened, and there was only one qi of heaven. Then one qi was transformed into three clears, and the way of heaven was divided into three."
Qi Wushen nodded, he had read the passage that the Daoist Huasheng said in Taoist books as early as in the dust world, the five congenitals, the infinite and the infinite, and then the heaven and the earth were born, and all things were born.
The master in front of him is the only one among the three Daoist priests who can be found out of the Qi of the Heavenly Dao, and he has a very strong background.
"And then?" Qi Wushen saw that after Huasheng Taoist finished speaking, his eyes closed again, and he took the initiative to ask.
The expression of Daoist Huasheng added a touch of nostalgia and pain, he seemed to be caught in deep memories and self-blame.
He took a deep breath and said again: "People in the world only know that one breath transforms the Three Purities, but they don't know that one breath will collide. There is also a goddess who was born at the beginning of the universe at the same time as the three of us."
The Goddess in Huasheng Daoist's mouth is named Tayue, and she is also the pink friend who died early in Nan Tianzun's mouth.
Because of a fate at the beginning of his incarnation, Taoist Huasheng paid far more attention and care to Tayue than others, but the Goddess Tayue was obviously different.
"She always said: immortality, endless life, this is really too boring. Later, at the beginning of the morning and evening, the three realms of dust, demon and fairy were established, and they were divided into Jiuchongtian and Minghe Youfu. We were also busy for a short time. But when everything is in order and order returns, more and more immortals in the Nine Heavens will either ascend or be born, and all of this will return to the idleness of the first world and the beginning of the world without us doing it ourselves."
It has been a long time since the beginning of the world, the vicissitudes of the sea, the sun and the moon, in the mouth of Huasheng Daoist, it is only a flick of a finger.
Qi Wushen knew that it was only because they had endless lifespans. People in the dust realm always hoped to live a long life, but for some people, a long life was not a hope, but a curse.
"And then?" Qi Wushen asked.
Daoist Huasheng sighed: "She said: It's too boring to be immutable in the Nine Heavens. She wants to experience the most sincere love and trust in the world, and enter reincarnation as a mortal. I told her that the most sincere love and trust are meaningless. For the Dao, so in order to persuade Tayue, we made a bet."
The small hammer hit Qi Wushen on the top of his head, and he quickly asked: "What bet?"
Daoist Huasheng sighed again: "I bet feelings will only be a drag, and ruthlessness is the way. If a person is ruthless and has no thoughts, he will definitely become the top powerhouse in the world."
Qi Wushen's hand trembled violently.
Daoist Huasheng didn't notice Qi Wushen's abnormality, and continued to narrate: "In order to fulfill our bet, I went to the dusty realm to pick up an orphan whose lifespan has expired, and took him as a disciple, not allowing him to act like an ordinary person. If there are distracting thoughts of the seven emotions, then carefully teach them and guide them to cultivate the Tao."
A bet is just a bet.
How, how could it be just a bet?
Qi Wushen's hands trembled more violently, his whole arm was shaking, and his heart felt like being grabbed by a hand, with a dull pain.
"She was looking forward to the result of the bet at first, but it takes a long time to raise a child to become a talent. Her curiosity about the result did not overwhelm her desire for love and faith in Chenyu in the end."
"She is determined to go down to earth, but she is different from ordinary immortals. She is a goddess who was born in a rush of energy. After all, she is just a rush of energy. I told her that if she goes down to earth and re-enters reincarnation, she will lose the protection of heaven and will be reincarnated with reincarnation. And gradually dissipate, at most several thousand years, she will turn into a breath between heaven and earth again, and cease to exist."
"But she is willing to give up her immortal status as a goddess, and also enters reincarnation, like a moth to a flame."
"I think she was so wrong, so after she left, I made up my mind to prove her wrong, so I put more energy into our bet, and I want to truly cultivate a ruthless, thoughtless, The strongest disciple in the world."
"In the first 100 years she left, I think she will regret it sooner or later. In the second 100 years she left, I think she will come back sooner or later. In the 3 years she left, I think she will regret it in a few hundred years. Realize your mistake."
"Every ten lives, I will send someone to ask if she regrets it, but her answer is always no regrets. I believe that as long as I wait long enough, she will definitely regret it. But..."
"I didn't wait for her to turn around in the end. I don't know how many years after she left, I regretted it."
"You can become the strongest in the world by being ruthless and thoughtless? I found that all of this was ridiculously wrong. I missed her so much that when I closed my eyes, I saw her shadow. Only then did I realize that the original bet was just a Leave her introduction, the result is not important at all. And... I can't be ruthless, why should I ask others to be ruthless?"
"Because of missing her, I used my own flesh and blood to refine the sky-peeping mirror, looking at her appearance through the mirror all day and all night. I smiled when I saw her when she was a girl, and watched her laugh and play with her friends Scolding, watching her love for someone for the first time, watching her shy and ignorant as a married woman for the first time, watching her give birth to her first child in that life."
"Stillness, every movement, every frown and smile are all scenery that I have never seen before. At that time, I realized that I might be crazy. I forced myself not to think about her and look at her, so I started to retreat, and I threw myself away. I went to the small world to practice, but I couldn't calm down at all. If I didn't see her for less than a stick of incense, I felt like I was crazy."
"When I opened the sky-peeping mirror again, I found that everything had changed. Her husband's family was in trouble, and she was forced to be a slave and suffered all kinds of bullying. I love her, pity her, and hope that she will repent and be willing to return to Jiuchonghea Come to me. As long as she regrets it, I would rather go against the law of heaven and keep her by my side."
"After so many lives, her soul is fragile enough. I know that this is the life. After this life, she will no longer exist. I wanted to beg her to come back, but I couldn't hold back my face, so I sent someone to find her .I am willing to use the humblest words I can think of to pray for her return."
"I thought there would be a miracle, but the result was still the same. She didn't want to come back. She would rather have a short but gorgeous life like a summer flower than have an endless lifespan."
From that bet, Qi Wushen began to cry silently.
Speaking of the final choice of Goddess Stepping on the Moon, Daoist Huasheng burst into tears.
He whimpered the last few words, his voice hoarse as if his vocal cords were torn.
"I ultimately failed to prevent her from dissipating."
"The hairpin in your hand is the only thing she left me."
"Since she left, I have gone crazy and started endless retreats."
He said again: "You are really similar to Tayue, very similar."
-
When he left, Qi Wushen was in a state where his soul was pulled away.
He forgot to go to Burning Incense Workshop to find tranquilizing incense, and he didn't even use the flying magic weapon, so he stumbled on the way back to Cangwuxuan, lost his mind, like a walking dead.
Qi Wushen's tears were streaming down, but he didn't know who it was for.
He finally understood why the hairpin in Daoist Huasheng's hand was so familiar. It turned out that it was the only accessory in the last few years of her mother's life.
He finally knew why the master had met his father. Zong Wu told him back then that his father accidentally discovered him when he was looking for someone in the lower realm.He was still thinking, how could there be such a coincidence?It turned out that the person Zong Wu was looking for was his mother.
He finally knew why Zong Wu hesitated when he asked Master if he remembered the first time the two met.He thought his ascension to the Nine Heavens was the first time he met him, but his master had witnessed everything about him through the sky-peeping mirror when he was born.
It turned out that the fate between him and Master started much earlier than he imagined.
original……
Qi Wushen remembered a lot of details, knew a lot of things that he didn't know before, and learned a little bit more about Master.
But...he couldn't be happier.
Why?Why do you treat Master like this?
In order to keep the goddess of stepping on the moon to relieve boredom?
In order to prove the ruthless party's bet?
"At that time, I would bring Zong Wu with me every time I looked at Dust Realm. At first, he didn't react much. Even though I was looking at Tianjing, he still focused on practicing, as if he didn't see anything. But until the first cry sounded, he Get drawn in and things change."
"He would come up to me while I was watching. I've never seen him interested in anyone or anything. When the telescope was first made, I didn't fully realize how ridiculously wrong I was, I just think Zong Wu's change is very dangerous, and it will prove that it is impossible to be ruthless without thoughts, so I am very panicked."
"I was afraid that he would prove me wrong. I was afraid that if I was wrong, Tayue would never come back. So, on the ninth day, I took him to the small world and forced him to retreat in the small world for a hundred years. He threw him to the small world, but I was still worried, so on the tenth day, I brought him back and forced him to drink the snow drink grass."
"I know Xue Yincao will hurt his body, but I am afraid. I only have Tayue in my eyes, and I don't care about others at all. After Tayue left, I spent another hundred years in the small world before I realized that I second mistake."
"I'm sorry Zong Wu, I'm sorry for the child I picked up back then."
Daoist Huasheng cried until his tears flowed down his cheeks, but Qi Wushen just numbly shook off his extended hand.
What's the use of a belated apology?
In their eyes, Master is just a plaything.
It's just a gadget that comes and goes when you call it.
It's just a failure to prove that the ruthless way goes against the sky.
When everything is disillusioned, everyone can withdraw safely.
Only Master can't.
Their whim and repentance for their mistakes are nothing more than a sentence of "I regret it", what are the consequences?What about the consequences of practicing the ruthless way?
In the end, Zong Wu did not become the strongest in the world that Huasheng Taoist hoped for.
Because he has not been ruthless and thoughtless, and because drinking snow grass hurts his body, which limits his cultivation.
"Master, shut up, I don't want to hear it anymore." Qi Wushen shook off the man's hand, turned and left mercilessly, but was grabbed again.
The memory flashes back from the cry.
Qi Wushen's tears fell even more heavily, his eyes were blurred by the tears, he didn't even know where he had gone, everything depended on the instinct of his body.
Countless voices sounded in his mind, he had pained, hated, he was dissatisfied, he was resentful, he...
He was distressed.
Master is also a living being, in their eyes... what is it?Just because they have endless life spans, can they treat others with such an "arrogant" attitude?
At this moment, a clear voice sounded.
"you……"
Is the master.
Qi Wushen desperately wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, he tried his best to make himself see clearly, and tried his best not to let Zong Wu notice his abnormality.
But... how is it possible?
Zong Wu said: "Didn't you go to find something to decorate Cangwu Xuan? Why did you come back so early? And..." Empty hands?
Qi Wushen's nose was very sore, and the tears were finally held back.
He looked up, and saw Zong Wu under the plum tree, all in white, with his belly straightened out, his fingertips resting on the red plums that had turned into little spiritual power.
Zong Wu put down his hands, frowned, and walked towards him with eyes full of impatience.
No.
Master can't be worried.
Qi Wushen forced himself to laugh, but it was even uglier than crying.
The tears that Jiang Jiang could hold back couldn't stop anymore, they flowed out in a rush, and his words were incoherent.
"Yes, Master, yes, I was looking for decorations, but, but, I was halfway through the search, I, disciple... I... I really miss you so much, I think you are thinking about it. I didn't want to delay for a second, so... I ran back quickly."
Qi Wushen rushed in front of the master, he hugged Zong Wu, buried his head in his neck, and pressed Zong Wu's head on his.
Under the plum tree, the bodies of indigo and plain white embrace each other tightly, as if there are only two of them left in this world, as if behind them is a world of ice and snow, unbearably cold, and they must hug each other very tightly so that they can grab each other Only with a little heat can we live well in this world.
"What's wrong?" Zong Wu raised his hand to caress Qi Wushen's temples that were soaked in tears.
Qi Wushen didn't speak, but cried more and more wantonly.
The corner of Zong Wu's white shirt was wet, and the boy's tears hit him directly.
Qi Wushen was so choked up that he couldn't speak, Zong Wu patted him on the back over and over again to comfort him until very late.
-
"More than a year ago, I went out of the customs for a short time. I told Zong Wu all this, the matter of stepping on the moon, and the bet back then. I told him, you can't do it again. If you practice the ruthless way, the ruthless way is wrong."
"I told him that drinking grass in the snow would damage his body and limit his cultivation. I told him that no one can be ruthless and thoughtless, and no one should be ruthless. supreme, meaningless."
"Some things were realized after thousands of years of meditation in the small world after retreating. Some things I have always known, but dare not admit. After Zong Wu heard it, he was greatly stimulated. He told me, I will not give up the ruthless way."
"At that time, I realized that the children I raised back then had their own ideas."
"This is the second mistake I've made in a long time, and it's still outrageous. Although it was just a bet at first, after being with you for so long, I have long regarded Zong Wu as my own child, but I have harmed this child .Since then, I have also approached Zong Wu several times, but he never saw me again."
"He hates me? It doesn't matter if he hates me, at least the hatred is not nothingness. Even if he hates me, it means that the ruthless way can no longer be practiced. But later, I discovered that what he treats me is not hatred, but..."
"Fear."
"For me, the way of ruthlessness is a gamble. But for him, it is everything. He is afraid that he has feelings, and he is afraid that he will destroy the way. For him, ruthlessness and no thoughts are the status quo that he has long been accustomed to. , all this is unknown."
"He has long relied on the ruthless way, and he is afraid of his sensual self."
Qi Wushen's voice became hoarse, he was so weeping that he couldn't speak, he remembered that more than a year ago, Zong Wu met Huasheng Taoist once, and then the master was depressed for a while.
Qi Wushen regretted it.
If he could go back to that day, it would be great if he could hug Master.
Master already knew about his life experience.
Master does not need anyone's comfort, Master is much stronger than he imagined.
In the middle of the night, on Cangwuxuan's bed, the lights were turned off, but the young man's scorching gaze was still fixed on Zong Wu's face.
"Master, I will accompany you for the rest of my life, okay? Even if the way of heaven collapses, even if the world ends, even if we live forever, let's not separate, okay?"
He doesn't want anything now, he just wants to hug the person in his arms, and then...
Never let go.
-
Zong Wu didn't know what kind of illness the little apprentice suddenly fell into.
For several days in a row, Qi Wushen stared at him closely, did not go on duty, and did nothing else, except to look at him, as if he was worried about losing him.
Fortunately, on Ji Yuan's side, there was nothing that Qi Wushen had to do, so he generously promised a holiday.
Zong Wu doesn't really care whether Qi Wushen goes on duty or not. Although he has a teacher-student relationship, he has always indulged in education.
Zong Wu just felt puzzled.
Until one day, he saw something familiar in Qi Wushen's changed clothes.
— Hairpins.
"Have you gone to see Daoist Huasheng?" Zong Wu looked at Qi Wushen with a questioning attitude in his eyes.
"Hmm..." Qi Wushen responded with lowered head.
"What did he tell you?" Zong Wu frowned, his eyes sharper than before.
"He said... He said something about Master's past, the key is..." Qi Wushen didn't intend to hide it, he just wanted to keep it a secret.
"What's the key?" Zong Wu asked.
Qi Wushen wrapped his arms around Zong Wu's upper abdomen, leaned his head on the shoulder of the master, and said in a sticky tone: "The key is to let us live a good life, let the apprentice love you well, and..."
"What else?"
"There is also a child who loves us together." Qi Wushen kissed Zong Wu's face, and the ring was a little tighter.
-
Tired of crooked for a few days, the little apprentice finally saw him not so closely.
Qi Wushen found a new "career".
"Here, here, put the swing over here."
"Be careful with that, it's a fish caught in the Tianhe River, it took a long time to catch it!"
In just one morning, Cangwuxuan changed drastically.
The original snow-covered scene is now a rockery with flowing water, green lotus and green willows, and a rockery with swimming fish.It is no longer cold, but it is full of spring and vitality.
Zong Wu sat on the rattan recliner specially prepared for him by his young apprentice, half lying in the flowers.
The flamingo landed leisurely, pacing with disgust on its face: "Why did this courtyard become like this?"
He said again: "Zong Wu, when did your taste become so bad?"
Zong Wu propped up his upper body, with a bit of helplessness in his words: "It's not me, it's him."
He pointed to the outside of the wall, there was the sound of knocking, and the sound of Qi Wushen directing the little immortals to be busy.
The flamingo showed a disdainful look, and said disdainfully: "It's nothing to do."
Zong Wu was silent, his face was stained with a hint of worry.
He said again: "Do you still remember where my avatar shell is?"
"How many years has it been useless? What are you looking for that shell for?"
"ask clearly."
"Ask what? Ask whom?"
"Huasheng Daoist."
Zong Wu paused for a moment and said again: "Ask me clearly what he said to him."
-
Zong Wu is not the kind of person who would give up easily, so he took advantage of Qi Wushen's absence that night and asked Nan Tianzun where Huasheng Taoist retreated.On the second day, the flamingo returned to Cangwuxuan with the news of the avatar.
"Still in the same place." The flamingo said.
"En." Zong Wu nodded.
In the afternoon, after lunch, Zong Wu went back to his room early.
"I'm sleepy, take a nap."
"Eh?" Qi Wushen was puzzled, Master obviously didn't have the habit of taking a nap, why did he suddenly want to take a nap?Is the child getting tired more easily because of his age?
Qi Wushen originally wanted to ask, but Master's breathing quickly became calmer, he closed the door gently, walked back to the yard, and told the busy little Xianmi to rest first, and not to make a sound.
After Qi Wushen finished all this, he returned to the room.
He calmly paced to the bed, lifted the quilt, and shrank in, but accidentally pressed Zong Wu's fingertips.
"Master, does it hurt you?" Qi Wushen went to touch Zong Wu's hand, but the other party didn't respond at all.
"Master, Master?"
Qi Wushen leaned forward, his movement was not small, but Zong Wu closed his eyes, still didn't respond at all.
It's like... the consciousness is out of the body.
-
In the hut, Zong Wu woke up from his separation. He looked at the surrounding environment uncertainly. There were no wooden floors, wooden beds, wooden doors, and not even a window.
It seems familiar, but it feels more strange.
"How are you getting used to it?" The flamingo leaned forward and said again, "I just cleaned it up casually yesterday, and the dust is still very heavy. However, you are not pregnant, so you shouldn't be so picky."
"Yeah." Zong Wu sat up and straightened his clothes.
There was a bronze mirror on the wooden table. He wiped off the dust on the bronze mirror, and an ordinary face was reflected in the mirror.The eyebrows and eyes are not prominent, and the proportion of facial features is not too big. Looking at the whole face, there is no memory point, but it also meets the requirements of a doppelganger just right, which can make people forget it at a glance.
Zong Wu tidied up his clothes. This clone was wearing plain white clothes and cloth shoes. His appearance was the same as his appearance, and he had no memory of it.
"You don't have to follow me." He shook his clothes and said to Bai Bai.
"Okay." The flamingo kicked its legs in unison and disappeared into the sky.
The afternoon nap can be up to an hour, any more will definitely attract the attention of the young apprentice. In addition, maintaining the avatar requires a lot of cultivation, and he is still in the recovery period, so he needs to speed up.
He opened the door and walked out of the wooden house, looked around for a while, and then used spiritual power to drive, vaguely found the location where Huasheng Taoist retreated.
——Fortunately, not far from the wooden house.
In order to save spiritual power, Zong Wu decided to walk there.
First bypassing a narrow river, and then walking through a few peach trees, the cliff wall where Huasheng Daoist retreated finally came into view.
There are many caves on the cliff, Zong Wu went to count the caves where the Taoist retreated according to the place Nan Tianzun told him, but just halfway through the count, the clear voice of a young man suddenly sounded behind him.
"Fellow Taoist, what a coincidence!"
Zong Wu froze all over, and turned his head stiffly.
Why did the little apprentice come here?
He was waiting for the opportunity to sneak out to meet the Daoist Huasheng, could it be...Qi Wushen was also waiting for the opportunity to sneak out to meet the Taoist Huasheng?
The appearance of the little apprentice here means that he will not soon find out that he pretends to be asleep and is out of his body. The only limitation now is the problem of spiritual power.
Zong Wu stabilized his mind, bowed to Qi Wushen, and replied politely and distantly: "Little friend Wushen, it is indeed a coincidence."
Zong Wu's thoughts changed. He thought that if the little apprentice wanted to see Daoist Huasheng, he would disappear this time.
The left and right avatars are around here, if you want to see Huasheng Taoist next time, just take advantage of the nap time and get out of your body once.
In the current situation, more important than meeting Hua Sheng Dao Zun is...cover the vest!
Daobai is the name of Zong Wu's avatar.
This avatar was actually made very early, but Zong Wu's official duties in Xianting were not busy at all, so the avatar had been collecting dust in the corner all the time.
The first use of this avatar has a deep relationship with Qi Wushen.
Because of Qi Tingyi's matter, when he first entered Jiuchongtian, the little apprentice didn't like Zong Wu at all. They were more like strangers living in the same space, just emptying the title of master and apprentice.
To what extent does Qi Wushen not wait to see Zong Wu?
He would read the secret methods used in cultivation and those issued by the Immortal Book Academy, but as long as Zong Wu's hands were touched, he would not even touch them and asked Lin Yangfeng to throw them away.
Coincidentally, Lin Yangfeng is also careless, and every time he encounters such a situation, he will scold Qi Wushen and waste everything.
Does Zong Wu always explain the little apprentice's prejudices? First, he thinks it is unnecessary, and second...he doesn't know.
If you don't explain it, you don't explain it, but Zong Wu's concern for the little apprentice is still there.
Qi Wushen's first entry into Jiuchongtian was bumpy and bumpy, and he always lacked someone to guide him. Not only that, Zong Wu also found that he had a faint tendency to be entangled by demons.
Zong Wu wants to save him, but the person who saves Qi Wushen must not be him. Only then does Zong Wu think of the dusty shell that has been covered for a long time.
He changed his identity to "Daobai", approaching and caring for Qi Wushen as a fellow Taoist.
Daobai gave Qi Wushen a lot of help. From life to immortality, he is both a teacher and a friend. It can be said that Qi Wushen's transformation from the ghostly appearance when he first entered the Jiuchongtian to the present is inseparable from Daobai's company.
Daobai walked with Qi Wushen for a long time, until later, when Qi Wushen's attitude towards Zong Wu eased, Daobai gradually left the stage.
In Qi Wushen's memory, Daobai is a single person, and a person who is very important to him.
Back in the world of dust, the red plum handkerchief that Qi Wushen used to wipe off the blood from the corner of his mouth was a gift from Daobai.
Zong Wu recalled the conversation between the two at that time.
——"That handkerchief, do you always wear it?"
——"Naturally, a small gift from an "old friend", of course you should treasure it carefully. "
Zong Wu actually didn't care about Qi Wushen's embarrassment after knowing that Daobai was his doppelganger, he just felt...
When the little apprentice came to Jiuchongtian, he didn't have many friends. Daobai was the first few who warmed Qi Wushen and helped him gain a foothold in Jiuchongtian.
From the title of old friend and the past of the two, it can be seen that Qi Wushen treats this friend sincerely. If you tell him that the friend does not exist...
What would the little apprentice think?Will you be sad?Will it be disillusioned?
Thinking of this, Zong Wu once again firmed up his idea of covering his vest tightly.
He stepped forward, smiled friendlyly, and said softly: "Little friend Wushen, we have not seen each other for a long time."
To this day, Zong Wu's experience in Daobai's shell is vivid. Daobai is a slightly softer person than Zongwu himself, but also alienated and bounded. What's wrong.
What's more, Qi Wushen should also come to see Daoist Huasheng, and he probably wouldn't chat with Daobai for too long, so he made himself feel at ease.
Qi Wushen had a strong smile on his face, maybe it's been a long time since we saw each other, he intimately took Daobai's forearm, and the two of them were very close to each other.
Although Qi Wushen has always had a youthful air about him, he is actually tall, with a narrow waist and tight back, like a willow tree with slender branches.
As for Daobai's shell, just like his ordinary appearance and clothes, his height is also ordinary, neither tall nor short, and he doesn't stand out from the crowd.
The upper body of the two people, one tall and one short, almost touched each other, and they were very close.
Zong Wu glanced at Qi Wushen, faintly feeling that something was wrong?
If there is such a distance between his true self and Qi Wushen, it is understandable, but now...
He just said, is the distance between them too... close?
Perhaps this is their "young people" way of communication, Zong Wuqian recalled that Qi Wushen and that junior from Ji's family didn't seem to be so close... right?
Could it be that in Qi Wushen's eyes, Taoism is so important...?
Zong Wu pulled out his arm slightly, and Qi Wushen felt a little pain there, even though it was a separate body, it felt like they were in common.
The little apprentice didn't give him a chance to pull away at all, and hugged him even tighter.
"Fellow Daoist, I haven't seen the two of us since I came back from the catastrophe. Thinking of the old days when I had a drink, enjoyed flowers, climbed trees and picked peaches, I miss it very much. I don't know if Fellow Daoist Bai has time now, you and I Two people, get together, what do you think?"
Zong Wu: "..."
The little apprentice changed his mind and didn't want to see Daoist Huasheng?
Zong Wu held back for a long time, and finally uttered two words.
"also may."
-
The cabin where Zong Wu woke up from his avatar was also the cabin where Daobai practiced and lived, so Zong Wu naturally didn't dare to take Qi Wushen there.
Although Bai Bai had cleaned it up briefly, the hut was still covered with heavy dust, and flaws could be seen at a glance.
Zong Wu stopped, and asked Qi Wushen: "Little friend Wushen, how about going to the river to put the lamp?"
From the cliff to the hut there is a small river, which is very shallow and is a branch of the Tianhe River.Once when the two of them took a night tour with candles, they saw many lanterns floating on the river. Qi Wushen was very curious, and after inquiring, he found out that this is a very small custom in Jiuchongtian.
After some immortals ascended, they could no longer see their relatives and friends in the dust realm, so they folded their lamps and put them into the Tianhe River. the imperial city.They believe that the best wishes can be brought to relatives and friends in the world when the lanterns flow through the dusty realm.
Qi Wushen also has many relatives and friends in the world of dust. Although those people are no longer alive, he is still moved.
"The lanterns also flow through the Youfu of the Styx River, and the deceased relatives should also receive them." Daobai said so.
"Yes, is it?"
Since then, Zong Wu has accompanied Qi Wushen to light a lamp for his family every year as Daobai, and has never stopped for so many years.
Until Qi Wushen went down to the lower realm to cross the catastrophe.
"That's fine, I'll listen to you...Fellow Daoist." Qi Wushen still had a bright smile on his face.
Zong Wu suddenly realized that the bright smile of the little apprentice was not directed at him alone.
There was a strange feeling in my heart, and looking at the arms of the two who had not separated after meeting, Zong Wu had no way to continue to comfort himself. This is the way of communication between "young people".
Qi Wushen waved to him again and said, "Fellow Daobai, just wait here, I'll break the lamp!"
The little apprentice finally let go of his arm, Qi Wushen looked at the peaches on the tree, jumped up, broke off one, put it in the clear stream to wash away the floating dust on the surface, and stuffed it into Daobai's hand again.
"Fellow Daoist, eat first! I'll go back as soon as I go!"
Zong Wu held the peach and didn't say anything, he looked at Qi Wushen's busy back, and felt a little...strange?
They were still busy buying for their home in the morning, but in a blink of an eye, they were able to seamlessly have fun with Daobai.
The little apprentice was originally warm, and...it wasn't a big deal at all, why should he care?
Zong Wu suddenly noticed something was wrong, he seemed to be jealous of Daobai.
But...it's obviously him, why do you feel like this?
Zong Wu was a little annoyed.
He couldn't find the reason, so he could only attribute it to the fact that he became sensitive after not practicing the ruthless way.
With so many years of experience in folding lanterns, Qi Wushen started this task very quickly. In less than a stick of incense, Zong Wu didn't even finish eating a peach, so Qi Wushen walked towards Zong Wu holding a lantern full of folded lanterns Come.
"Why does it seem like there are too many?"
"The other two are for my master and my child."
Zong Wu stared at the lantern in Qi Wushen's arms, opened his lips slightly, only to hear Qi Wushen say again: "By the way, Daoist Daoist, I haven't told you yet, I am with my master."
Zong Wu: "Yes."
He paused, thinking about how to answer as a friend, and after a while he squeezed out two words jerky.
"Congratulations."
The smile on Qi Wushen's face seemed to be radiant, he took Daobai's hand along the way, and said again: "Fellow Daobai, I really want to tell you everything about me and Master, I don't know Would you like to."
Zong Wu: "..."
Can he say "no"?
-
When Qi Wushen was telling the story, his face was filled with that kind of warm light.
He really talked a lot, so much that Zong Wu doubted several times whether his spiritual power could last until Qi Wushen finished speaking.
"Master's reaction was very strong. Even though I didn't know anything at the time, I still guessed that the child was mine."
"Is there any accident? There must be."
"Let's not talk about the kids, since my father and the whole family are gone, I don't even think about who I'm going to have any kind of intimacy with anyone.
