Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 672 671. Just the scenery
Yixin Court.

Everything is quiet.

Even Taoist Lian Jingming's voice would be wiped out by an inexplicable force after it floated out of the courtyard window.

Others cannot listen.

After learning about this secret from Dao Jingming, Yu Wenhuaji thought about it and asked again:

"What does that have to do with the demon clan?"

"Because an immortal is an immortal. It is formed by gathering fire. The monster race is also a living being, and the poor must be recognized by it to become an immortal."

"..."

Yu Wenhuaji frowned:
"Why does it sound like Taoist yin and yang again?"

"Because this world is originally made up of yin and yang. The heaven and the earth are yin and yang, and men and women are also yin and yang. Where there is positive, there is also negative. And this pervasive dragon energy is yang. And the old demon who suppressed luck from the demon clan The dragon is Yin."

Taoist Jingming's tone was indifferent, as if he was speaking something that had nothing to do with him, but he explained the secret to Yu Wenhuaji in detail:
"The solitary yin does not grow, and the solitary sun does not grow. That is the case. In ancient times, a group of monsters were rampant, and they were the masters of this world. The sky and the earth were not allowed, so there were witches and humans. But the monster race was tyrannical, and the human race It is weak. But when the human race starts to grow, the monster race will naturally start to become weak. The essence of heaven and earth is balance, isn't it?"

As he spoke, he suddenly spread his two palms.

The qi of heaven and earth in the room surged for a while.

On the left hand, a group of blazing fire appeared, while on the right hand, a group of crystal clear ice appeared.

Firelight and ice crystals form a dreamlike color.

It spins endlessly.

"I think Renxian and Zhu Huai could have noticed the same thing during the battle at Xuanpingpo."

"...that's true."

Facing his words, Yu Huaji did not hide anything:
"In the battle between us, he promised fire, and the ice would appear naturally. It didn't even need me to control it, and it would freeze and grow on its own. It's like... his fire absorbed all the scorching heat, cold It came naturally."

"It's balance."

Taoist Jingming clasped both hands, and the fire and ice disappeared without a trace.

"The balance of heaven and earth."

"But the fairy is not, right?"

"That's right. Immortal, it's more like an imbalance born from balance after balance."

"...Because balance is also a kind of...one-sided? Is it yin? Unbalanced is yang?"

Finally, after hearing these words, Taoist Jingming showed a hint of surprise on his face.

After being surprised, it was full of emotion:

"Pin Dao has been enlightened for three years before he realized the truth. Unexpectedly, a human immortal can think it out in just a few words... Sigh."

A long sigh.

In the sigh, it is the feeling of being lonely because of loneliness:

"It's a pity. With the wisdom of a celestial being, if we were able to pursue this way together with the poor Taoist from the beginning, I'm afraid we can achieve it now..."

"There will be no achievements, and one of us will definitely die."

The middle-aged Confucian scholar was very transparent in the face of such emotions, whether they were compliments or exclamations.

"Because the essence of this world, in your opinion, is balance. According to you, if "immortal" represents the opposite imbalance of that balance, then in this world... I think there is at most one immortal." , is enough. There is no room for two."

"..."

For the first time, Taoist Jingming felt silent.

I didn't even know what to say.

Should it be said that the other party is awake?

Or... the person who can firmly sit on the number one throne for 12 years should be like this?
He didn't know either.

After all, he is not a fairy yet.

And Yu Wenhuaji looked at the moon outside the window in his silence.

"Actually, your pursuit and mine are still different. What I pursue is detachment."

In Taoist Jingming's silence, the middle-aged Confucian scholar gently twirled the teacup with his hand, which did not look like a sword practicer at all, and said to himself:
"I'm different from Zhu Huai, I don't have such a strong sense of victory. Even if one day Qianjike rated me as the second in the world, I would be very happy. Because I hate the loneliness of being number one."

"..."

"Xiaoxi and I are also different. He has lived his life like a loyal dog raised by his master. He doesn't need to have his own ideas. He can do whatever His Majesty says."

"..."

"I'm even more different from you. What you're pursuing, whether it's your Xu family's long-cherished wish or your mission, in my opinion, it's just a selfish desire. For this selfish desire, you are willing to sacrifice The luck of a great religion, the dragon veins of a dynasty, and even... plotted against a fledgling child, forcing him to come to Jiangdu step by step, where he was trapped in Li Xiuning's house. Daoxuan... your selfish desires are terrible. Cold, heartless... hey."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but laugh.

Shaking his head slightly:

"Speaking of which, you and this Li Shouchu are really the same kind of people. They are both for the obsession in your heart and can let go of all the kind... Last year, when I saw him use the real martial arts, I felt a little bit Surprised. The kind of selfish, selfish, seemingly great but extremely selfish inner is somewhat familiar... But now think about it, no, you two are the same kind of people. As long as you strengthen your inner thoughts, you will think The man who does everything to do, to get, to change... No wonder. No wonder... He's your goal."

With a touch of emotion on his face, Yu Wenhuaji let out a long sigh:
"Ugh."

Picked up the cup.

"What about the immortal?"

Looking at the Confucian scholars drinking tea, Taoist Jingming also had a trace of curiosity in his eyes:
"What is the pursuit of immortals? For detachment? For what is detachment?"

"Because I want to see it."

Facing his question, Yu Wenhuaji also chose to be blunt:

"I just want to see the scenery."

"This is also selfish desire."

"Ok, I know."

Yu Wenhua and nodded:
"Fulfilling selfish desires without restraint is a beast. But if there is no selfish desire, it is not human."

After giving a simple truth, Yu Wenhuaji finally showed a hint of curiosity in his eyes:
"But, I still want to see it, don't you?... Do you know where your majesty and I's favorite place was when we were young?"

"Huashan."

Taoist Jingming, the national teacher of the two dynasties, said that it is not an exaggeration to watch Yang Guang step by step to the present, so he naturally knows very well about the things of the two when they were young.

Yu Huaji also nodded:
"That's right, it's Mount Hua. Your Majesty likes to climb mountains, and so do I. It's just...the reason why your Majesty likes to climb mountains is the same as yours. Both of you like to go directly to the top of the mountain to see the scenery of the world. But I'm different. I like it Walk step by step from the foot of the mountain, walk for a while, and if you see something interesting, you will go and see it. When you see a place that is inaccessible, you like to go and see it. Therefore, when I was in Huashan, Your Majesty would wait for me at the top of the mountain for a long time every time. , and then when I arrive, go down the mountain with him."

When talking about the events of his youth, a look of nostalgia inevitably appeared in his eyes.

"Then, Your Majesty will always ask me: Huaji, what new things did you see today? I will tell him what I have seen and heard. In Huashan, I have seen a hundred feet of beasts. The corpses of wild beasts are still fresh. I have also seen groups of egrets and green kites, which are not common in Guanzhong, circling the cliffs.

I have also seen apes howling and barking, and the sound echoed.I have also seen the lone wolf lonely and isolated from the cliff... Huashan is very big and has many scenery. Even, my favorite thing to do was to lie between the cliffs and forests, watching the sun shine through the trees and greenery, and sprinkle the whole body The outline of the light changes little by little... These, Daoxuan, have you ever seen them? "

"..."

After a moment of silence, Taoist Jingming shook his head:
"Maybe I have."

"Just don't care, do you?"

He poured another cup of tea on his own, and the middle-aged Confucian scholar who was number one in the world smiled very happily:
"But I have seen, felt, and even remember the satisfaction and comfort when I encountered the wonders created by the nature of those birds and beasts."

"..."

"So, I can understand what you are after, and I can't understand it. And for my curiosity, you will sound absurd. From the beginning to the end, I am just curious. Curiosity, what is the world after detachment? What kind. But I'm not detached, so I don't know. That's why I want to know. Becoming a fairy? Becoming a god? Maybe. From the beginning, you, like His Majesty, have found your goal and want to stand on the top of the mountain , overlooking the world. But I am different, I just want to see the scenery."

With that said, he withdrew his gaze from looking at the moon, and landed on Taoist Jingming again:

"So, I told Your Majesty that I want to use the dragon energy of the country to practice, just to transcend. But... After this road came to an end, I discovered... It turns out that only dragon energy is not enough. The so-called transcendence, a The luck of the dynasty is not enough. But what is the difference, I don’t know. It wasn’t until you appeared... I realized that it turns out... from beginning to end, the road that can be walked on one leg cannot lead to the end. I want to see To see the scenery I want to see, I have to walk on two legs. This is why I help you, do you understand?"

There was a pause.

His gaze slowly focused on the pattern of flowers on the cup in his hand.

murmured:

"So... Daoxuan. Until I don't speak... Your Majesty, you can't touch it with a single finger."

What followed the words was the fleeting coldness.

The iceberg that had been hidden under the water surface quietly raised the tip of the iceberg to the person in front of him.

It's refreshing.

Taoist Jingming nodded:

"Of course."

"it is good."

After getting his promise, Yu Wenhuaji regained his appearance as a Confucian scholar.

The aura of freezing everything just now disappeared without a trace.

"What is the next plan?"

"Just wait for Li Shouchu to realize the Tao. After he has enlightened, I will let him go to the north of the extreme north to find the old dragon."

Yu Wenhuaji was taken aback, and asked in surprise:
"You want him to go to the Yaozu?"

"Without that old dragon helping him wash away the mortal dust, how could he transform into a fairy body?"

Taoist Jingming's words made Yu Wenhuaji frown directly:

"I have seen his ability. If he realizes the Tao, it will be very troublesome."

"It's very troublesome."

This time, Taoist Jingming did not hide anything:
"I have tried twice to change his fate. Once, I asked him to change to Leifa. He didn't practice it. Once, I pushed him to practice "Harmony with Light and Dust". Although he practiced it, he still didn't. Abandon his "Tao."

"Is it the golden light curse from the evil sect?"

"……Um."

Taoist Jingming was silent for a while, then nodded:
"It's very troublesome."

"...Yeah, it's very troublesome."

Recalling the words of that Taoist "seeing me is like seeing a real martial arts" when he was in Xi Sui, Yu Wenhuaji had a look of interest in his eyes:
"I really want to see... the scenery after he enlightened."

"Will see."

Taoist Jingming pinched the hands in his sleeves and then nodded:

"Not too far away."

"Then what about you, why do you think that he will still act as a pawn according to your order and according to your plan, and be at your mercy?"

"He doesn't need to be at my mercy."

Taoist Jingming shook his head and smiled slightly:
"Some things just go with the flow. At least we still have time, don't we?"

"Don't mess it up."

Facing his self-confidence, Yu Wenhua suddenly said this.

"This Taoist priest is a very interesting person. If you are not careful... I am afraid that the expectations of your Xu family will turn into empty dreams again."

"What about empty dreams?"

Taoist Jingming asked back.

Under Yu Huahua's astonished gaze, he smiled slightly:
"It's nothing more than the next reincarnation."

"..."

"The Xu family and his fate have been entangled. No matter how many years have passed, only one side is doomed to win. It's okay if this world ends... If it still doesn't end, then it's nothing more than a wave of fate in which the winner and loser will settle down That's all. It doesn't matter whether the next immortal body is him or not. One day, there will be a result."

"Tsk..."

Yu Wenhuaji's face was full of emotion.

"It's really scary. This kind of obsession..."

Taoist Jingming was speechless.

Just drank the tea in the cup.

And when I picked up the teapot again, I suddenly realized...

The water inside is empty.

empty……

It will be empty.

He looked up at the sky.

Come here with pleasure, the tea is exhausted.

Angelica.

So, stand up and bow:
"Fu Sheng Wu Liang Tian Zun, this is the end of tonight. Immortal, poor Taoist farewell."

Also feeling Huang Xizi's aura, Yu Wenhuaji's half-smile is not a smile:
"Go straight, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult to go."

Taoist Jingming smiled slightly:
"It's okay."

Hand over again:

"Farewell."

"No delivery."

Following Yu Wenhuaji's words, the Taoist did not use the ability that appeared quietly, but walked out of Yixin Garden step by step.

After going out the door, I saw Huang Xizi with a mink hat on his head, tucking his hands into his sleeves, with a smile on his face:
"Our family said that this air mechanism is a little strange, but also a little familiar. It turns out that it is Daoist Jingming... It's been a long time."

Taoist Jingming, who was wearing an ordinary Taoist robe, pinched his fingers and saluted:
"Meet the superintendent."

"Don't dare."

Huang Xizi's voice was still soft, but his Qi had already locked onto Taoist Jingming, apparently knowing that he had the ability to withdraw suddenly.

"I just don't know that the national teacher is still praying for His Majesty at the Datong Mountain. How could Daoist Jingming condescend to enter the palace himself? Why is he looking for an immortal?"

"Just to check on the immortal's injuries."

Facing Huang Xizi's questioning with a smile, Taoist Jingming said indifferently:
"Daoxuan can't get out, so he can only come here poorly... Otherwise, does the supervisor want to come without desire? If he comes without desire, I'm afraid he will have to say some irrelevant hexagrams and proverbs. And if he accidentally said something What...does the supervisor really want to know?"

"..."

Huang Xizi was silent for a moment, and the smile on his face slowly narrowed.

Taoist Jingming didn't say much anymore, he just bowed his head:
"The superintendent stays, and the poor Taoist bids farewell."

After finishing speaking, he stepped into the void, and the figure disappeared.

Under the cold moonlight.

Huang Xizi glanced at Yixin Garden, where the palace gate was still open...

A light flickered in the eyes like burning fire.

moment.

The light dissipates.

He bowed towards the palace gate and left quickly.

In Yixin Garden.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar let out a long sigh.

　Everyone, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!May there be lovers in the world who accidentally become pregnant...
