Yusha

Chapter 56
The elder sighed, and stood there with his head bowed. Behind him was endless misty clouds, vast as a sea, with no end in sight.

Against the backdrop of such a boundless sea of ​​clouds, the thin old man in a large crimson robe wrapped in a black cloak of crane feathers looked even smaller.

It was as if he was just the faintest and weakest of all the creatures in the world, as if the Qingding Peak under the feet of everyone was also the most remote and inconspicuous one in the King's Sacred Sect.

At first, Chu Weiyang's mood was still immersed in the sadness after mentioning Guo Dian.

To say how painful it is, Chu Weiyang sometimes recalls Guo Dian's death with a sense of relief. The long-term suffering and hardship seem to have really taught Chu Weiyang that his feelings have become rough and numb.

And sometimes such emotions became the source of Chu Weiyang's emotional pain.

Because of this, the whole person became more and more sad.

It's just that at this moment, Chu Weiyang still needs to gather his mind and deal with the elder Qingdingfeng in front of him carefully.

Pressing down his emotions, when the young man was about to speak, he saw a deserted figure against the backdrop of the world and the vast sea of ​​clouds.

This time, Chu Weiyang's only sober thoughts, those active thoughts, also stopped turning at the moment when he saw the red robe and black cloak.

It's as if the whole person's soul has been soaked in the cold pool and under the glacier.

Immediately afterwards, he saw the elder's pair of black eyes blinking continuously, and he clearly couldn't see the slightest movement of eyes similar to ordinary people, but Chu Weiyang felt endless sadness from the pitch black for no reason.

Because, Chu Weiyang just opened his mouth like this, not saying a word, even if he couldn't even utter a word, he just stared blankly, and wiped away all the sadness in his heart, and then -

Pain is awakened, hunger is ignited, and anger is roared!

Even the elder's thin figure seemed to be completely distorted in Chu Weiyang's eyes at this moment——

The red color of the crimson robe was raised high and swayed in the mid-air. The dazzling red seemed to be the color of fresh blood. Those situations that were once related to life and death almost melted into this color. went in;

Immediately afterwards, the black color of the crane-feather black cloak suddenly dissipated, like a gust of wind and smoke, like some kind of dust, or like a thick slurry of water, in the blackness that swallowed all colors, it seemed to be an evil spirit. Surging, teaching people to convulse for no reason;

In the end, it was the sea of ​​clouds that filled the sky, almost boiling and rolling, turning into a scorching hot soup that could not be seen at a glance. Those blackened rotten vegetable leaves and rotten white meat, these awakened Chu Weiyang's heart. Hunger, and made him feel nauseous again!

There was no longer the figure of the elder in front of his eyes, and what Chu Weiyang could see was only the strange picture scroll woven by the endless suffering and emotions that he had gone through.

So his mind became more and more depressed and stiff under the cold pool and glacier, and gradually, he actually felt some kind of suffocation that originated from his mind.

It made him breathless, and made him almost lose the most basic thinking ability.

Swish-!
In the next moment, a sword sound clanged!

It seems that the clouds and mist are torn apart, and the fireworks of the great sun hang down on the world; it seems that the boundless wind sweeps away, blowing away the colors of the world, leaving only ashes and dust.

The sound of the sword resounded throughout the universe, and also resounded in Chu Weiyang's mind.

Almost like a drowning person suddenly waking up, Chu Weiyang panted violently, but his whole body seemed to come alive suddenly.

Only he survived.

At the same time, in the eerie scroll of colors intertwined with emotions, a smear of deep red and a smear of black overlapped, and suddenly, the reclusive figure of the old man appeared in the half-suspension.

He seemed to be still standing there, and seemed to be looking at Chu Weiyang casually across the chaotic world with an indifferent expression.

Is this the cruel temper that the unruly young man said? ——
"What is cruel? Who? Who has a cruel temper?"

In the last moment, there was still the sound of swords screaming, and the tarnished mottled colors were still intertwined into a picture scroll.

Just as Chu Weiyang's mind and thoughts continued, suddenly, accompanied by the familiar old voice, he trembled suddenly. When he looked again, he was still standing in front of the dense forest, surrounded by the silence of the mountains and fields. Such a strange change just now.

It's just that for some reason, Chunyu Zhi on the side seemed to have suffered some kind of injury, and his whole body was suddenly drained of strength. Although he didn't faint, he collapsed in Chu Weiyang's arms. At this moment, the young man must be Only by supporting her shoulders can she teach her to stand there reluctantly.

When I looked again, the thin old man in a crimson robe and a black cloak with crane feathers was standing on the bluestone road, standing at the edge of the dense forest, staring at Chu Weiyang with empty eyes without the slightest emotion .

Those were a pair of cloudy eyes that had been through the vicissitudes of life.

And almost at the moment when Chu Weiyang looked over, a pure black ink flashed from the depths of the old man's eyes.

All of a sudden, it seemed like an illusion, but Chu Weiyang became more and more aware that it was precisely because of the aura he saw in his eyes that it proved that the treacherous experience just now was true, and all the changes happened at the same time. It originated from the shadowy old man in front of him.

"what……"

Seeing it, the old man wanted to ask again.

But before Chu Weiyang raised his mind again, the old man's turbid eyes suddenly became alive again, and even his gaze towards Chu Weiyang was no longer as empty as before.

The old man waved his hand.

"Forget it, don't ask... Let the old man take such a look, don't care about your nonsense practice, you, and your master, you two disciples of the Xuanming Danding lineage, the old man can be regarded as recognized gone."

Just as he was speaking, the old man suddenly looked at Chunyu Zhi who was leaning on Chu Weiyang's arms and gradually regaining his strength.

"By restricting each other to tie our minds together, young people nowadays..."

When the voice fell, the old man turned around completely, and walked into the dense forest first.

"Pinch the jade talisman in the palm of your hand and look at the old man's figure. There is a mountain protection circle in the forest. Don't go the wrong way and die here unjustly."

Just as he was talking, he didn't see that the elder of Qingding Peak had any waiting posture. After the words fell, he walked to the depths of the dense forest on his own. After only a few steps, most of his body was almost hidden in the lush jungle up.

Not daring to be dazed any longer, he picked up the jade talisman between his hands, and when he was about to chase after the elder, he was concerned about Chunyu Zhi's current state, seeing her walking a few steps away, her figure was still trembling and unable to use her strength.

In critical moments, there is no embarrassment.

Think of it as holding a sword and hurrying, just as holding a sword and walking...

Whispering in his heart like this, Chu Weiyang supported Chunyuzhi's arm with one hand again, almost hugging most of Chunyuzhi's body tightly in his arms, and then he chased after a few steps, followed the path the elder had walked, and entered In the dense forest.
-
If so, about half an hour passed.

Seeing several twists and turns in the dense forest, Chu Weiyang and Chun Yuzhi followed closely behind the elder, took the last few steps, crossed the edge of the dense forest, and looked at the peak that soared into the clouds in front of them. He really stood on the Qingding Peak, on the boundary of the Xuanming Danding lineage.

Silence all the way.

Before Chu Weiyang could figure out what to say, how to communicate with that fierce-tempered elder.

Suddenly, the elder's voice sounded.

"Think about the word "Ku Lie" again, this old man has ripped off your skin!
Little baby, this is Qingding Peak, the mountain gate dojo that your master has dreamed of all his life, that's it, deserted and deserted. "

After expressing his emotions like this, at least he didn't use such treacherous tricks to completely detonate Chu Weiyang's emotions. The elder just asked again.

"Do you still remember the path you walked from the forest just now?"

Hearing this, Chu Weiyang quickly responded, "I remember it all, there will be no mistakes in this, and I will remember it step by step."

Only then did the elder nod his head, and then took another straight look at Chu Weiyang.

"Since that's the case, if someone wants to stay at Qingding Peak temporarily, you will have to pick him up outside the forest. No matter how cold the mountain is, I'm also an elder of the Holy Sect, so there's no reason to run errands.

The old man naturally has something to say about this assignment for you.

Come to see the holy sect’s incense ceremony, it’s not easy to travel through mountains and rivers, like you, a monk who passed away early and didn’t get any legal system, why, you don’t need to try your best to speak, the old man just needs to look at you, You can make a rough guess.

It's just a child, one family, one family, one surname, brothers who grew up the same way, father and mother will inevitably have a preference, and there is no way to make sense of everything here. After all, it is not you who come here to inherit the Dharma. I have to pass it on to you.

There is no such thing.

What about your master, what about you, and how miserable you have been through these years are not the reasons why I must pass on your Dharma lineage.

But who taught this grand ceremony, I went outside the dojo, and then I followed you. I promise that if you do well in this errand, you don’t need to live in Genzi Temple or Guiziyuan , the Taoist Hall on the top of the peak is the old man's place of meditation, and I promise you to stay in the side hall temporarily. "

When he just opened his mouth to speak, the elder had already stepped on the small path between Qingding Peak Mountain step by step.

Chu Weiyang didn't dare to be negligent, and still supported Chunyu Zhi, listening to the elder's words carefully, almost imprinting every word in his heart.

The elder spoke unhurriedly, with a unique charm. Anyone who listens carefully will have a strange feeling of forgetting himself. When he recovers, it is often not long ago.

as predicted.

When the elder's words fell, Chu Weiyang and Chunyu Zhifang woke up from that strange state. When the young people looked over, a quiet courtyard stood on the top of the mountain, among the clouds, Standing in front of Chu Weiyang and Chunyu Zhi.

Breathing hard, Chu Weiyang felt somewhat uncomfortable.

On the contrary, the elder still walked forward calmly, and casually pushed open the half-closed door of the courtyard.

I don't know if it was due to carelessness in a trance, but Chu Weiyang didn't even see the slightest restriction from the door.

But after thinking about it, maybe this elder's meditation here is already a supreme prohibition.

Thinking like this, there was no melancholy, Chu Weiyang had already supported Chunyu Zhi, and walked into the courtyard following the elder's pace.

As far as the eye can see, there is a broad and simple scenery, and the more so, the thinner figure of the elder walking in the front, the more it makes people feel deserted.

When you look carefully, you can even see some overgrown weeds at the corners of the courtyard wall.

In addition, there is a small pavilion in the courtyard, wooden tables and chairs in the pavilion, a few strange stones are piled up not far away, and a water tank is placed beside it. Apart from these, there is nothing left.

etc--

water tank?

After all, Chu Weiyang had seen it before, and at this moment, his gaze paused, and he suddenly passed the elder's figure and stared at the water tank!
When I look at it now, there is still a rusty and mottled water tank in my eyes, it is clearly a large green paulownia urn, and the mottled marks on it are all the marks of years of wind and frost erosion.

That was no ordinary object.

The last time Chu Weiyang saw a similar existence, it was the Zichan Pill Stove that he saw in the underground palace on Lingqiu Mountain.

This is the remnant of the natal magic weapon of the golden core monk!

In an instant, Chu Weiyang's breathing became a little rough.

But he didn't wait for him to think more.

It was the elder's voice that sounded again, and it was almost suppressed in Chu Weiyang's mind, and all his desires disappeared in no time.

"What you said just now, don't think that the old man is dealing with you.

All causality, in the final analysis, is still a matter of incense and legal system.

I recognize you as a disciple of the Xuanming Danding lineage, but it is not the old man who wants to entrust the dojo legal system to you. If the law is passed on in this way, the descendants of Qingding Peak will also scold the old man in the future, and even chase you, and your descendants.

The more one became the Holy Sect, the more taboos that could not be overstepped were in his eyes!

But... 200 years ago, there was a member of the holy sect who was once the lord of a city, and he was also the lineage of you and me Xuanming Danding. After discussing, the old man opened the Taoist Hall on the top of the peak and invited him to discuss Taoism.

This talk is...

I won’t mention the past, if you talk too much, it will ruin your chances, so go and realize it yourself, how much you can get depends on your own predestination and understanding.

This incident has nothing to do with the old man's Qingding Peak lineage. What the old man wants you to do is to go down the mountain to pick up people these few days, and then remember to fill the water tank with water every day..."

The elder's voice still lingered in Chu Weiyang's ears.

When the young man looked again, at some time, the elder had already walked into the central Taoist hall, and closed the door tightly with a wave of his hand.

Turning his head to look at the water tank again, Chu Weiyang's mind was filled with unscrupulous reverie for a while.

But in the end, when one's heart throbbed, it was inevitable that one's arms would have to exert strength.

Almost at the same time, a warm breath sprayed on Chu Weiyang's neck.

Immediately after, what rang in his ears was Chunyu Zhi's low voice, gnashing his teeth.

"Chu Weiyang, take your hands away!"
