Lonely Immortal

What's there to blame? Zhang Zhiwen also didn't know why Bai Feiyan was like this, but Zhang Zhiwen nodded and said it was okay. Bai Feiyan hesitated for a moment and then opened the door.

Zhang Zhiwen subconsciously raised his head and looked inside. He thought that this dilapidated house might still be the so-called things left by his ancestor, right? This should generally be the case, and this place is probably a collection of some of the things he once left behind.

The mountain gate of Zhongkendo is probably not suitable for storing his items, or his items are too valuable, so they can only be stored in this place. Furthermore, this secular sect does not actually have any good means to preserve items.

After the passage of time, these things will probably gradually be destroyed, and there is nothing that can be done about it.

But it is necessary to say something here. It is not that Zhang Zhiwen did not feel the strangeness of this matter. From the moment he saw Bai Feiyan, he felt the strangeness in it, but he knew that this might be the result of the chaos of time and space.

As the saying goes, which came first, the chicken or the egg, Zhang Zhiwen can't explain it. So whether he came to Zhongkendo first or whether it was an extended experience later, no one knows, but he knows one thing very well. He is not from this hell realm, so he must have a plot point that opens up this plane.

Of course, this is a general statement that Zhang Zhiwen gives to all the people and things he encounters in this plane. Otherwise, he would not be able to think about these issues with words and thinking, so the most important thing for him is to find this plot node.

This plot point was originally the first place he came to when he entered the underworld. This plot point should have been correct, but now that there are so many things he once owned here, how dare he ask the underworld? Is this really a plot point?

This was something Zhang Zhiwen couldn't figure out. At this moment, Bai Feiyan brought him here, and he followed Bai Feiyan into the house.

After entering, the room was still a little dusty. Zhang Zhiwen just waved his hand and cleaned the place with a spell. This made Bai Feiyan extremely surprised. This was the method of an immortal. Sure enough, the ancestor was an immortal.

Therefore, her eyes were looking directly at Zhang Zhiwen. Her watery eyes made it difficult for people to look directly into them. However, Zhang Zhiwen pretended not to see it. When he came in, all his attention was focused on it. There is a painting in this room.

This is a scroll about five feet long. It hangs in the center. The scroll is originally nothing. The scroll hanging in the middle hall is either a tiger descending from the mountain or an inscription. But this painting is not. It is There was nothing, it was blank.

But the blank space is not necessarily blank. There seems to be some writing underneath. Zhang Zhiwen took a closer look and found that the writing was painted on Qingbi Lake in a certain month of a certain year.

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help being slightly shocked when he saw the words "Qingbi Lake". When he raised his head and looked at the scroll again, the scroll began to change.

"Ancestor...I..."

Bai Feiyan walked over, seeming a little nervous and looking forward to it, but Zhang Zhiwen didn't have any extra thoughts to dwell on him at the moment. He just stared at the scroll, watching it change little by little.

I saw that this scroll began to show some patterns from top to bottom. It was obvious that this was a landscape painting with light and concise brushwork. The first thing that appeared was a bright moon. This bright moon was the color of jasper, like a bead plate, exuding a misty The halo looks a bit cold.

Then the tree branches appeared. This tree branch was dry. It was at the lower left of the bright moon. The tree branches appeared one by one, and the trunk gradually emerged. At this time, green mountains appeared in the background. But inside the picture are the misty gray mountain shadows in the distance, but it can be seen that the artist's artistic conception is quite good. Even with a few strokes, he still outlines the cold picture at that time.

And there are more things emerging from Shandai in the distance, that is, some flying birds. I don’t know what kind of birds they are. They seem to be egrets or wild geese. Anyway, they don’t look very obvious. They are probably the picture of birds flying in thousands of mountains. But Qianshan can’t say that.

Then the picture continued to show down, that is, under the moon, the lake appeared next to the tree trunk. The lake looked quite vast, and seemed to have some rippling life, and the moon wheel cast a melancholy shadow on the lake, making the whole picture more beautiful. The hair is so cold that one can't help but think of some beautiful poems.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwen was actually somewhat invested in it. Further down, the entire lake appeared.

In the very center of the lake, there is another small boat. This curved boat is like an ant, but it is so real. There is no one on the boat, so it is just an empty boat floating on the lake, under the moon. In the reflection, it looked like a falling dead leaf.

Further down is the lake. There is a thatched house in the lake. What really surprised Zhang Zhiwen was that there was a man and a woman beside the thatched house with their backs to the screen and looking at the moon. They were leaning on each other.

From the viewer's perspective, it is impossible to see who the man and the woman are, but their clothes and hairstyles seem somewhat familiar.

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but look at Bai Feiyan. He saw that Bai Feiyan was wearing a long white gown. Then he looked at the woman in the scroll. She was also wearing a white gown. But if that was the case, that would be fine. The woman had long hair tied up on her head. That hair There is also a red tie in the bun, and Bai Feiyan's bun is also tied up with a red tie.

When Zhang Zhiwen looked at Bai Feiyan, Bai Feiyan suddenly blushed with embarrassment. She lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at Zhang Zhiwen, but Zhang Zhiwen didn't know what was going on. When he saw the man in the painting, the clothes he wore were clearly... It's the same as him, it's also a blue gown, which is nothing. There are many men wearing long gowns, so it may not be him.

But this man has almost the same hairstyle as him, and the most important point is that this man is holding a book in his hand. Even though the book is very small in the scroll, Zhang Zhiwen can still read it clearly When two words appear on it, they are "Yes and Sutra"!

Obviously, this book is probably the strange set of secret books he saw before, that is, the "Ashi Heart Sutra"!

If this man took the "Ah Shi Heart Sutra", it would be very simple. This man is definitely Zhang Zhiwen, at least in Bai Feiyan's view.

But the only thing is that these two people have their backs to the scroll, and their true appearance cannot be seen. If you have to say that this man and woman are Bai Feiyan and Zhang Zhiwen, it is not impossible, but there is something unexplainable here, and that is them The real appearance is not actually drawn.

However, the scroll does not end here. The scroll continues to appear, and behind it is a gate of the fence. Beyond this gate is a small road, which extends out of the scroll. This road is black, like a monster from hell. Its big mouth seems to be swallowing up all living things. This is no wonder why this painting does not feel very comfortable to people. Instead, it makes people feel lonely, cold, and even sad.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't know if Bai Feiyan felt the sadness in this painting, but he felt it very clearly anyway. He even had the illusion that he had really been to this Qingbi Lake and stayed with Bai Feiyan. Together, the two of them once sat quietly by the lake and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

Then I don't know why, but I couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness in my heart, as if something was missing from my soul.

With this thought, Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but tremble in his heart. You must know that this is not a good thing. If the soul has regrets, the soul will be damaged, and if the soul is damaged, it will have extremely bad consequences.

He couldn't help but look at Bai Feiyan, who was looking at the scroll as if fascinated. Zhang Zhiwen probably knew why she brought him here to see this scroll.

Bai Feiyan felt that she and Zhang Zhiwen had been together before, but this matter was also extremely strange. With Zhang Zhiwen's discernment ability, he had not seen that Bai Feiyan had been with Zhang Zhiwen in his previous life.

So could this picture be imagined out of thin air?

"Who painted this painting?"

Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but asked curiously.

If you know who painted this painting, then things seem to be easier to handle. Just find the painter and ask. The painter may have dreamed of such a scene in a dream, and then painted it. It's not impossible.

Besides, painters in this world may not always paint real pictures. Many landscape paintings are mainly about artistic conception, and some of the pictures are even false and fabricated. In this case, the painter of this painting may not be This is not the case.

Bai Feiyan was still immersed in the painting at this time, as if her whole soul had been sucked away. When Zhang Zhiwen asked her such a question, she suddenly came back to her senses, and then she lowered her head shyly, He said in a low voice: "You painted this painting."

"Did I draw it?"

Zhang Zhiwen was shocked on the spot. At this moment, he had also forgotten why Bai Feiyan suddenly changed the name of him, from "ancestor" to "you"!

You know, strictly speaking, this situation is not allowed. Zhang Zhiwen is the Patriarch of Zhongjian Dao, at least in Bai Feiyan’s perception. Zhongjian Dao also has strict rules, and there is a hierarchy between disciples and the patriarch. No, how can you call me directly?

But Zhang Zhiwen didn't have the thoughts to pay attention to these things at this time. On the contrary, Bai Feiyan was a little surprised to see Zhang Zhiwen so shocked. She couldn't help but look at Zhang Zhiwen curiously, and even reached out and touched Zhang Zhiwen's forehead.

"what you do?"

Zhang Zhiwen was a little surprised by Bai Feiyan's behavior, but Bai Feiyan looked at Zhang Zhiwen with a puzzled look, and then couldn't help but said, "Have you lost your memory these years?"

Zhang Zhiwen was speechless. He didn't know what to say. He couldn't explain the ins and outs of these things to Bai Feiyan, and why did he need to explain these things to Bai Feiyan? He came here to find clues to leave the hell realm, not to flirt with Bai Feiyan.

Therefore, he couldn't help but push away Bai Feiyan's hand. Even though this Bai Feiyan really captivated the country and the city, and Bai Feiyan so close at hand, it was indeed so beautiful that it made people almost breathless. But Zhang Zhiwen was a monk who had been practicing for so many years. His state of mind is as solid as a rock, almost unshakable.

He won't do anything for these insignificant feelings between men and women. These men and women may have been mortal enemies in their previous lives, or even livestock in their previous lives, so what kind of love is there?

Zhang Zhiwen pushed Bai Feiyan's hand away. Bai Feiyan was stunned for a moment, and her eyes were obviously a little sad, but she recovered quickly. She subconsciously took a step back, and then hurriedly clasped her fists towards Zhang Zhiwen: "I'm sorry for offending you just now, I hope the master won't blame me."

Zhang Zhiwen didn't know what Bai Feiyan was going to do. She was close to him one moment, and then she returned to normal. But since she returned to normal, it was good, so Zhang Zhiwen waved his hand and indicated that it was okay.

His eyes returned to the scroll again.

"Is this really drawn by me?"

Zhang Zhiwen asked again.

"Yes, Master, this painting has been hidden in Zhongjiandao for hundreds of years and has been passed down from generation to generation. It is very magical and requires some extremely strange opportunities to show the picture. I have accidentally seen the picture in the scroll..."

Bai Feiyan began to describe the situation when she saw the scroll. It turned out that the scroll had been in Zhongjiandao for many years, but many people had never seen what was painted in the scroll. Only Bai Feiyan saw what was in the scroll by chance.

It can be said that Bai Feiyan is the only one in the entire Zhongjiandao who can see it, and no one else can see it. But this scroll was left by Zhang Zhiwen, because this was confirmed by the founder of Zhongjiandao, and it would definitely not be false.

The founder said that one day, this scroll would see the light of day again, and when that day came, it would be the moment when this secular world would undergo a huge change.

That's what he said back then. It may be passed down differently from generation to generation, but the general meaning should be correct.

Bai Feiyan was the only disciple who saw this scroll, which is why she thought that the woman in the scroll was her, Bai Feiyan, and the man was naturally the master of the Marquis. The moment Bai Feiyan saw Zhang Zhiwen, Zhang Zhiwen's dress undoubtedly confirmed this.

But the problem is that under Zhang Zhiwen's investigation, Bai Feiyan's past and present lives did not have this period, which is absolutely illogical.

Also, if this scroll was painted by Zhang Zhiwen himself, then why did he paint this scroll? This obviously made Zhang Zhiwen extremely puzzled.

Another thing is that if Zhang Zhiwen had painted this scroll, then Zhang Zhiwen could have left a message directly, and he would not have to guess these messy things now. Could it be that he could not leave a message at that time? Is this a secret that cannot be revealed?

Zhang Zhiwen stood in front of the scroll and fell into deep thought for a while.
