Nothing is to blame

Chapter 17

On the edge of the real cliff, Gui Wugui stands with his hands behind his back.Wearing a white robe, fluttering in the wind.

Under the cliff and dome wall, there are sharp peaks and peaks, and there are many ingenious things. The dangerous peaks and strange rocks are like living things, competing with the turbulent clouds and mists.

Such a scene, no blame but no intention to look at it, Qing Zhan's eyes are looking at the sky.

In a moment, a cyan light came from far to near, and suddenly flew to the edge of the cliff.A figure appeared in Yuan Guang, jumped lightly, and landed beside Gui Wujiu.

This person was dressed in a white robe, his face was clear and round, without sharp edges and corners.But if you look closely, you can feel a sense of sharpness and uprightness, like a sword, although it is hidden in its sheath, the sharpness is hard to conceal.

Gui Wugui looked at this man and smiled. "Junior Brother Wen, it's been a long time."

The person in front of him was Wen Jinyuan, the head disciple of the True Inheritance three years ago.

Wen Jinyuan nodded indifferently and said: "Return to senior brother. The value of friendship lies in knowing each other, not seeing each other. If you want to say goodbye for three years, you and I may not have a good relationship."

Wen Jinyuan was extremely talented, even in the Chongxiao Pavilion where there were many heroes, he was in his pocket like a cone, and no one could hide his brilliance.Yuan didn't pay much attention to Senior Brother Gui who was known as the subtlety of Taoism among his fellow disciples.Later, it was a very accidental opportunity that triggered the two to discuss "Nine Yuan Book", and it was then that they fell in love at first sight and became close friends.

Although Wen Jinyuan's demeanor is full of a kind of belief in who I can give up.But it is quite able to break through falsehoods and see the truth, and has no superficial habit of being supercilious.It is true that he has received a lot of inspiration and help from the place of no blame, but it is not necessarily true that he cannot break through the barrier with the "small comfort" if he helps each other without blame.In his mind, Gui Wugui's Taoist insights are superior to him, and they are irreversible, so it's nothing to follow others and make a name for them.

Gui Wujiu nodded slightly, and waited quietly for Wen Jinyuan to explain his intention.Both of them are free and unrestrained people who hate red tape.We haven't seen each other for three years, but meeting today through a letter is naturally not a common gossip.

As expected, Wen Jinyuan was not procrastinating. He took a look at Gui Wujiu, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Gui has indeed stepped into the spirit form recently. Brother Gui and I hit it off right away, so there is no need to say more. The road to the great road Although it is steep, there are only a few who stand out from the crowd. But in Wen's heart, Brother Gui is always the one who is expected to reach a very high level. Even if he encounters difficulties for a while, he will never waver in his determination."

Gui Wugui smiled and said: "After receiving the letter from Qinghua's phantom seal, I expected that there would be nothing good for Junior Brother Wen to come to the door. As long as this useful body is still there, what is the difference between big and small, good and bad things? Wen Wen Junior brother, please speak bluntly."

Wen Jinyuan's face was fixed, and he immediately spoke in detail.

The disciples of the Yueheng Sect, above the Golden Core Realm, can receive a number of senior officials, which has its own advantages.This kind of position is not available to everyone even if it is a Golden Core cultivator.And Wen Jinyuan, as a true disciple, even though he is still in the spiritual state, has also received a priest.

Wen Jinyuan's position is the official of Chongluan Hall. There are a total of [-] posts in this position. There are two people on duty each day in the front, back, left and right side halls and the main hall, and each person is only on duty two times a month. day.Wen Jinyuan was in charge of taking care of the side hall in front of Chongluan Hall on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year.It is said to be looking after, but in fact there is nothing to do. It is just a place to meditate and clean up. It is nothing more than a welfare project.

This Chongluan hall is the appendix to the imperial edict of Yue Hengzong.All the edicts and talismans of the six halls and twelve pavilions are appended with a magic weapon "five directions seal" in this hall.After all the edicts come into effect, they will be stamped with the "Five Directions Seal". Whoever issued the order, when and what happened, will be photographed on the five "Five Directions Hunyuan Stone" in the middle of the five palaces.Even the events of ten thousand years or one hundred thousand years ago can be vividly remembered without any omission.This treasure was made by Yue Hengzong to urge all palaces and pavilions to fulfill their duties, just like the history of secular historians who write like iron and are distinguished.In essence, it is the same as the system of true transmission and selection, which is a system to ensure the vitality of the sect and prevent selfishness.

Three days ago, when Wen Jinyuan was meditating in the front hall of Chongluan Hall, an imperial edict suddenly flew to the hall, and it was stamped with the "Five Square Seals".At the same time, there is an extra line of writing on the Hunyuan stone in the front hall.This kind of scene was extremely common, and Wen Jinyuan didn't care about it as he meditated at the side.

At this moment, the imperial edict that was stamped and was about to leap out of the palace suddenly had a surge of aura, and then burst open, turning into bits and pieces of starlight and scattering all over the ground.At the same time, the handwriting that was just displayed in the Hunyuan Stone also quickly disappeared.Wen Jinyuan was taken aback, and at the moment when the handwriting disappeared, he vaguely saw the words "return to no blame as a true disciple".

After Wen Jinyuan became a true disciple, he joined the "Chiyun" sect in the true tradition of the thirteen inner mansions. This sect is particularly prosperous in the true tradition of the thirteen schools.In the past three years, Wen Jinyuan's knowledge is not comparable to before.Naturally, he suddenly realized that the brother Gui from the same school in the Chongxiao Pavilion turned out to be a "true biography of waiting for the imperial edict".It's just that this true edict was destroyed as soon as it was triggered for some reason.

As soon as the on-duty time was over, Wen Jinyuan planned to have a meeting with Wugui, but suddenly something important was delayed.So they estimated the time and sent a Qinghua talisman, agreeing to meet today.

After telling the story, Wen Jinyuan said: "When I met Senior Brother Gui back then, I felt that Senior Brother Gui was very mysterious and extraordinary. I never thought that Senior Brother Gui would have such an identity. The true biography of the imperial edict is rediscovered today."

Although Gui Wugui's face was calm, his eyes were dim, and it seemed that there were countless past events and complicated emotions flowing in his heart.Hearing the words, he said with a smile: "Of course it is impossible to pass on the true biography of Daizhao, there have been at least fifty or sixty in the past [-] years. It's just that the true biography of Daizhao who was broken in the middle of the contract should be regarded as the first one that has never been done before. It is really and honorable." .”

He also said: "As for the mysterious origin, I know that not only senior brother Wen, but also many people in the same school think so. In fact, it's not a big deal. In the past, I avoided talking about this matter because I didn't have a clear idea in my heart and couldn't take it calmly. These mortals The past is full of smoke and dust, and it seems like a world away from today's immortal journey. It is really not a secret."

Wen Jinyuan had also probed Gui Wujiu's origin before, but Gui Wujiu always avoided it, just laughed and didn't answer.Later, Wen Jinyuan stopped asking.Wen Jinyuan couldn't help being a little surprised that Gui Wujiu took the initiative to bring up this matter today.

Wen Jinyuan immediately said seriously: "What I don't take in my generation is illusion, delusion, and obsession. As for all daily use of human relations, world physics, seven emotions and five senses, they are all sincere. In ancient methods, there are also borrowings. Cultivating the Dao in the world is based on the way of humanity and the way of the heavens. Even the great masters of this sect have devoted themselves to the cause and effect of the three times and the samsara of the six realms to purify the true self in order to purify the mind of the Tao. Brother Gui, if you can share your past experience, brother Of course I can’t ask for it.”

After a pause, Wen Jinyuan smiled slightly and said, "Besides, the younger brother is really interested in the past of the older brother."

Gui Wugui also smiled, looked into the distance, and said in an erratic tone: "Where do we start? Gui was born in Baizangzhou, one of the four major continents. In the far west of Baizangzhou, in the Yu Dynasty, there is a country named Izumo Kingdom. Jianzhou City, the third largest city in the Izumo Kingdom, is my Gui clan's ancestral home."

"Of course, Baizangzhou and so on, I only found out after I joined the Yueheng Sect. I knew it when I was young. In my heart, this world is just the Izumo Kingdom."

"The ancestor of returning home used to be a general of the Izumo Kingdom. Following the Izumo King's conquests, he made great achievements and was conferred the honor of Jianzhou—ranked seventh among a group of conferees. At that time The heyday of Guijia was also the most prosperous time in the history of Izumo Kingdom. During those hundreds of years, Izumo Kingdom even got rid of the control of the Dayu Dynasty and became the "second largest country" among tens of thousands of miles and dozens of countries. Extremely "power."

Gui Wugui showed nostalgia on his face: "Of course I didn't experience it myself, but I rode on a horse and listened to my father's story when I was young. At that time, I couldn't tell who was older from the prime minister and the village official. , but I always listened to my father talking about "the capital of the state scholar", "beating the bell and eating the tripod", etc., with a half-knowledge, it has formed a fixed memory and has never been forgotten."

"Guijia prospered for more than ten generations, and finally gradually declined. In the generation of my great-grandfather, the title inherited was already the lowest rank of cavalry captain. In addition, he was not good at management, and the thousands of acres of land left by his ancestors, as well as many pawns, The dry stocks of tea houses, restaurants, rice shops, and gold and silver shops have all been in decline."

"When I arrived at my father's place, I felt that a little bit of Lumi was hardly enough to support my expenses, so I sold the last legacy passed down from my ancestors --- a five-entry house, and moved to Tai'an City, the capital of Izumo, to buy a In the courtyard, a few good horses and camels turned out to be a businessman who abandoned his official position and started a business as a furry merchant. I was four years old that year, and I already had a vague memory of the move.”

"In my father's mind, engaging in business travel was nothing more than an expedient measure, so he taught my brothers strictly, hoping that one day they would gain fame through the "Nine Classics" and once again glorify the family. Especially when I was three years old, my mother was born. After giving birth to the little sister and unfortunately letting go, my father's thoughts are only here."

"The eldest brother is generous by nature, and the second brother is quiet and dull. Both of them have no interest in scriptures and texts. They failed in their studies, and after they grow up, they just help their father with business."

"In the end, my father pinned his hopes on me. The glorious deeds of those ancestors were what my father had time to instill in me during the road of selling goods, in the hope that I can make up my mind early and strive for fame."

"Later, I finally performed well in reading, but after two or three years, I finished reading the "Six Classics of Meng Xue" and the ancient poems of "Three Hundred Schools", and I became famous among my neighbors for a while."

Wen Jinyuan originally thought that Gui Wujiu was just telling himself about the origin of the true identity of Daizhao, but he never expected that Gui Wujiu would describe it in such detail.After savoring it carefully, he realized that Gui Wugui was indeed as he said, and he had a breakthrough in his state of mind, which is why he spoke so calmly.
