long night walk

Chapter 1582 What is your wish?

Heyan Temple was originally built to make up for the mistake of Emperor Junhuang's affair. It was a place to comfort the mortal women in the temple and deceive them into believing that they would have a chance to ascend to heaven if they could attain enlightenment and practice in it.

Overnight, everything was reduced to ashes.

The vastness of heaven and earth, the depth of a hundred thousand mountains.

A big fire in the southwest mountain claimed dozens of lives, but it was difficult to illuminate the world.

The world has changed, and the mediocre and cowardly people have become arrogant, extravagant, and dissolute, indulging in sensual pleasures and bending their backs to be soft-hearted. The country has declined and suffered from honor and disgrace, but in the end, it is still the beautiful women who are responsible for all the sins and mistakes.

Within three days, Baili An naturally obtained the seal of the Water God Kingdom.

Even the things that Jun Huang Chenghuang treated with great care during his daily cleaning and maintenance seemed insignificant in his hands. He tossed them around in his hands for a while, then found them boring and put them into his Qiankun bag.

Even though Qing Ao was willing to give it up, Bailian never truly recognized the value of this item in his heart.

However, he was too indifferent to cash in, so how could he really get involved in Qingao's front camp?

And greedy desires are exactly the nutrients that the True Ancestor Evil God needs.

After putting away the five 'hard-earned' immortal seals, Bailian looked up at the sky full of dark clouds, picked up a pot of wine, and walked into the southwest mountains.

It was a rare night when the Kunlun Mountains stopped snowing all year round. A night rain like thousands of rain arrows slammed into the Taoist temple that had long been reduced to ruins, and on the heavy and tilted plaque of the temple, water droplets half a foot high splashed up.

The burnt smell in the air was somewhat dispersed by the heavy rain.

The Taoist temple was simple, and after becoming a wreck in the blaze, it became even more desolate and dilapidated. The long stone steps looked quite eerie in the cold rain. Besides the blazing fire, traces of being eaten away by the world could be seen everywhere. Such a scene coupled with such a heavy rain gave off a sense of silence.

In the heavy rain among the ruins, a figure has already been embedded in the silent and desolate scenery.

Qing Ao was sitting sideways on the long steps, holding a pot of leftover wine in his hand, and in front of him was a withered peach tree.

Perhaps he sensed Bailian's approaching breath, he moved slightly and raised his dark eyes that not even light could penetrate.

Qing Ao twitched his lips slightly and said, "Three days ago, you wanted to force Cheng Huang to surrender and hand over the seal that day. What you had in mind was to protect the women in the temple, right?"

Bailian did not deny it. He held the umbrella in one hand, bent down and sat down on the long steps. He bit open the seal of the wine jug and poured the wine onto the ground in front of him.

He said calmly: "But the real person gave Cheng Huang three unnecessary days when it was unnecessary."

Master Qingao laughed softly and said, "I have shouldered a lifetime of sins, and now it is understandable that I am responsible for dozens of lives. Just as you think, in a sense, I have killed dozens of innocent women in this Taoist temple."

Bailian shook his head, turned around and looked at him seriously: "Rather than wanting to wipe them out and kill them, it's more like a real person who wants to see the human nature of this world with his own eyes.

Even though, perhaps in the eyes of the real person, human nature has always been the same greed and selfishness for so many years, but in this unchanging darkness and nothingness, the real person's heart is still looking forward to the emergence of different scenery. "

However, before he was about to destroy Mount Kunlun and crash into the Thirty-Six Heavenly Palaces, his careless malicious temptation ultimately made him see the impermanence of life in his undefinable foggy life.

Although life is unpredictable, it is also the norm in life.

In the nameless southwestern mountain of Kunlun Jingxu, where snow falls all year round but no rain occurs, a heavy rain fell.

As if to wash away the dust and dirt in this world, the heavy rain seemed to be burying someone.

Bailian finished a pot of wine, he looked up at the cold moon hidden under the dark clouds, and suddenly said, "Do you want to stop now?"

He is against the world and against the laws of nature. It is a bit ridiculous that he asks such a question when things have come to this point.

But Qingao didn't find it funny. He raised his rain-soaked face and chuckled.

Even though he was corroded beyond recognition by suffering and the passage of time, even he himself could not recognize himself... But this young man could see his temper and his hesitation, asking such "stupid" questions to a madman who was trying to destroy the six realms.

It really makes people... helpless.

Qing Ao sighed softly, "If I stop just for a few women I don't know and have no relationship with, then all my hatred, despair, madness, planning, and ambition over the past few hundred thousand years will become a joke."

What he said and what he thought in his heart were all about destroying the world, but because of the occasional bit of beauty in his human nature, it was easy for Bailian to see the sigh and hesitation in his heart.

So...what a good person he could have been when he was the God Lord Ao Qing.

If it weren't for that order, his fate would have been entangled with that of the evil god.

He must be a wise and enlightened king in this country.

What kind of fate has he experienced to become what he is now? At first glance, he seems to have everything, but he can never escape the entanglement of the fate that is like a demon.

Stop here? Never think about it.

He never believed in the rhetoric of turning back and becoming a Buddha by laying down the butcher knife.

  When he was one with the evil god, he had laid down his butcher knife many times, but has fate ever spared him?

It just pushed him into the abyss.

Qing Ao looked at Bailian with a look of regret, exhaled slowly, and said with a smile: "Stop? It's too late. As a good person, if you are not pure enough, and as a bad person, if you are not bad enough, in a sense, you will become a cowardly and incompetent guy like Jun Huang Cheng Huang. If it is my fate to make mistakes again and again, I will... accept it with pleasure."

"After all... this is the 'pain' I chose myself, and I must continue it conscientiously."

He laughed at himself and said, "After all, I am now just a poor creature being toyed with by the True Ancestor Evil God."

The heavy rain gradually stopped, and the hesitation and wavering in Qingao's heart tonight also disappeared like a mirage in the rain. He raised his palm and slowly wiped the wet water droplets on his face. His eyes were dark and cold, as if hiding an abyss.

He said calmly: "So if you really want to help me and pity me, then why not follow me to continue to occupy Kunlun Jingxu and turn the six realms upside down so that there will be no peace forever."

Bailian was silent for a long time, and did not directly respond to his question. He only asked calmly: "What is the real person's wish?"

"What...what?" Qing Ao was stunned.

Baili An said: "There is no love or hatred without reason in the world. Since the real person has such strong hatred, it is naturally accompanied by strong desires. Now the real person is letting go of his heart and allowing his desires to be dominated and controlled by the power of the evil god. Naturally, as an equal exchange, the real person can naturally get a response of equal value from the True Ancestor Evil God while offering his desires and pain."

A hint of darkness flashed across Master Qingao's eyes, and he suddenly spoke in a depressed tone: "Has anyone ever told you that you, whose cultivation is sealed, are actually just as terrifying."

Bailian smiled and raised his head, his eyes piercing through Qingao in front of him, and said: "So, what supports the real person's current actions is not the hatred in the past, but the love that the real person does not want to tell others and wants to treasure and protect."

His wish has nothing to do with greed. Precisely because it is pure enough, he has been able to possess this self-awareness until now. While feeding the evil god, he is also able to resist the occupation and erosion of the true ancestor evil god's thoughts.

Qingao smiled helplessly and said, "If one day, my friend can resonate with the True Ancestor Evil God and appear in the world, he can naturally inherit my wish of seeing through me. Now, I will naturally not say more to you."

At this point, for someone like him, wishing for something has become a luxury.

Qing Ao was very different from all the enemies Bailian had faced in the past, so he knew that there was no point in saying more.

But even though it seemed like a meaningless sentence, it made Master Qingao feel happy for the first time in a long time.

"It's just that, in this world, there is still someone who can persuade me to turn back. This feeling has really been missing for a long time."

Qing Ao's eyes showed no emotion, and he said calmly: "But it is obvious that I am going to disappoint people again."
