Chapter 228 Let’s practice together
Gu Zhuo thought for a while and said honestly: "Actually, I don't think it's anything. I even think it's quite cute."
Yu Sheng asked with a confused look: "Cute?"
"Cute."
Gu Zhuo smiled and said: "I would never lie to you in a place like this."
Yu Sheng thought that your cuteness was too strange, and asked: "Why?"
"There is no reason."
Gu Zhuo thought to himself, I can't say that I have done anything more ridiculous than you.
The memories from many years ago surfaced and fell into his eyes again today, making him unable to understand why he wanted to copy himself into a poetry fairy that night.
Then he thought about how his master later learned about this and pretended to be indifferent while walking on Xuandu Mountain. He would chat with everyone he met and would recite a few sentences he had copied after a few words, which was praised by the entire Taoist sect. That night became a legend that will last for thousands of years, making it known to everyone in the world.
This is why the word "Shixian" comes from this.
It’s hard to look back on the past, and everything we look up is filled with gloom and gloom.
As soon as he thought of this, Gu Zhuo's thoughts faded away.
He looked into Yu Sheng's eyes and said seriously: "Let's stop here."
Yu Sheng did not answer immediately.
If she remembered correctly, the next scene was of the two people in the old days really walking side by side.
Of course, many things happened later, scattered over many springs and autumns, until finally they became strangers and completely cut off contact with each other.
As the long years passed, his master died, and her parents also died, and he and she reached higher and higher realms, and the world began to respect their names and avoid them, and changed their pronouns.
then.
The past is submerged in the long river of time and is no longer known to the world.
Happy things should be remembered with concentration, but they are really not worth lingering on.
Old friends, stories and old papers.
It doesn't matter anymore.
"Yeah."
Yu Sheng nodded slightly and repeated to Gu Zhuo: "That's it."
……
……
The warm and late breath dissipated invisible, the lines etched on the ground were buried in dirt, and there was no trace of the setting sun outside the snow pavilion.
The gravekeeper raised his head and looked at the two people standing under the pavilion, puzzled but silent.
Three hours had passed since the pair of juniors entered the formation, so the night was already dark and pitch black.
"How?"
Gu Zhuo's voice sounded.
"You passed."
The gravekeeper said numbly: "But the only person who is qualified to receive the inheritance is you."
Gu Zhuo made a statement.
Then, he calmly held Yu Sheng's hand and walked out of the snow pavilion.
Yu Sheng was slightly startled and subconsciously wanted to break away, but found that he had been led away from the pavilion.
Everything is so fast.
with nature.
Gu Zhuo let go of his hand and walked towards the tomb.
A harsh and violent aura became more real as he got closer to the tomb.
Just as the gravekeeper said at the beginning, the ancestor of the Bai family who was buried in this grave was extremely unwilling before his death. His strong resentment was enough to confuse ordinary people's hearts and make them lose their minds and go crazy.
But to Gu Zhuo, it was just a gust of wind on a midsummer night.
A little cool, that's all.
Gu Zhuo looked at the tombstone.
The name of the ancestor of the Bai family and his general life experience are engraved on the stele. The word "Yuhua" at the end is quite eye-catching.
He thought for a while and roughly recalled who this person was and what kind of story he had.
Many years ago, there was a civil strife in the Great Qin royal family. The ancestor of the Bai family buried in the grave was the loser. However, as the loser in the civil strife, he was not killed. Instead, he was suppressed in the old Wangjing palace. The underground palace beneath the city has been buried in darkness for decades without seeing the light of day.
Such suffering turned out to be an opportunity for this person, allowing him to break through to the Feathering Realm, and finally gave him a reason to be killed.
How can one not hate such a way of death?
Not to mention that after death, he will be buried in Baidi Mountain and become a legacy for future generations, so that the Bai family can survive for thousands of years.
When he thought of the word "inheritance", Gu Zhuo's expression was particularly calm, without any ridicule or sarcasm.
How often do Taoist sects have such similar things?
Gu Zhuo stopped.
The aura that originated from the frost calamity of all things enveloped him. The darkness around him at this moment was just like the darkness in the underground palace back then, and it was exactly the same as cold.
The next moment, countless strong emotions surged in like a tide from the night.
This process is not much different from catching the sea.
After the bone-chilling waves temporarily subsided, I leaned over to pick up shells and oysters.
Those shells and oysters are the true perceptions of the ancestor of the Bai family who were buried in the tomb about the frost and calamity of all things. They are distinguished according to the thinness or fatness of their meat, which represents the depth and shallowness of those perceptions.
The most plump piece of oyster among them vaguely points to the realm of emergence.
Before the spirit can no longer withstand the bone-chilling cold brought by the wave, it is everyone's choice to select these shells as much as possible to obtain the most benefits in a short period of time, because no one can be greedy enough to want them all.
Gu Zhuo can.
Based on Yu Sheng's suggestion, he did so.
Outside the tomb.
The gravekeeper looked at Gu Zhuo's back, silently counting the time, and frowned.
Based on his past experience, he was almost ready to save people at this time, but this junior never gave him this feeling, so how could he move forward?
About two-quarters of an hour later, Gu Zhuo turned around and turned back.
The gravekeeper looked into his eyes and couldn't find anything strange at all, so he remained silent because of confusion.
Gu Zhuo knew what the gravekeeper was doing, so he said thank you and walked away side by side with Yu Sheng.
There was a faint sound in the night.
"Why so slow?"
"Because you are serious."
"But I'm having fun with you."
"Then I'll be faster next time?"
"Since you are serious, you can take it slow."
"Should we go faster or slower?"
"This is your business and has nothing to do with me."
"But wasn't I listening to you?"
……
……
There are no calendar days in the mountains, especially in practice.
In the winter of the thirty-ninth year of Chengsheng, Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng spent a peaceful time. The disturbances from the outside world were buried by the clouds, and Baidi Mountain was pure and pure.
The two of them took their practice very seriously, and their voices were always lingering in the two stone houses on the cliff.
Every word in the voice is a discussion, an analysis of the two techniques of Tiandi Heng and Xingshuang Jie by Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng. Sometimes it is the former who thinks that the latter is biased, and sometimes it is the latter who points out what the former said. Then the two began to discuss and study the loopholes in it. In the blink of an eye, several days or even ten days passed...
From a certain perspective, spiritual practice is the most profound knowledge in the world, both on white paper and in reality.
The two people sitting in the stone room are probably the two beings who have the deepest understanding of this knowledge and have gone the furthest in the world today. Of course, they will not fall into a situation where they will be in danger if they fail to discuss it, but they still have some problems at the moment. The problem needs to be clarified.
Yu Sheng's voice was extremely serious.
"The power of the balance of heaven and earth lies in the fact that the universe does not collapse. If you keep the righteousness, the source will be infinite. In essence, you will put yourself in a situation called shouzheng. This situation can even be regarded as a dojo shrunk countless times. The reason why the source can be infinite is that It comes from this.”
She said: "However, the problem now is that the scale of this dojo also restricts the power you can release, drawing an invisible line for you and erasing the possibility of you fighting hard."
< br>
Gu Zhuo said: "This is a problem I have imagined from the beginning. The collapse of the universe can be the key point to break the situation."
Yu Sheng pondered for a moment and said: "According to the results we have deduced so far, if the universe collapses, there is a 30% chance that you will become a waste, a 20% chance that you will fall into the cave, and another 10% chance that you will be seriously injured. As for the rest That's 40% possible..."
Gu Zhuo smiled and said calmly: "He died on the spot."
Yu Sheng said calmly: "If we can't solve the problems caused by the collapse of the universe and reduce the price to an affordable range, the balance between heaven and earth will still be inferior to the Yuanshi Taoist Code."
The Yuanshi Dao Canon has the most lofty status in Taoism, not only because it is the teaching method of Tiandao Sect, but more importantly, it can create cause and effect.
There are only a handful of techniques in the world that are qualified to be compared with the Yuanshi Dao Canon. The Zhongtian Yin Fu Jing mastered by the Great Qin royal family is one of them. There are some similarities between the two.
In addition, even the Yuanshi Magic Book that was built by Yingxu Jian's deviant approach still lacks a few points.
"There is another extremely troublesome thing."
Yu Sheng frowned, shook his head and said: "Breaking through the situation is not easy, and it will most likely bring you the risk of falling into imbalance. At that time, you will endure the difficult situation I mentioned before, which is certainly better than the collapse of the universe. A little bit, but not much.”
The deeper she understands Tiandi Heng, the more she can see the fierce side hidden under the peaceful appearance of this technique.
What is very interesting is that the Star Frost Tribulation evolved from the most extreme frost sky of all things.
What is this?
You are walking on the path of my previous life, and I am walking on the path of your previous life?
Yu Sheng shook his head, letting these thoughts leave the sea of consciousness, and said calmly: "Go on."
Gu Zhuo said: "As for the question I raised yesterday about the frost calamity of all things..."
Naturally, Yu Sheng would not refuse, so he took over the conversation and began to talk about what he had thought about last night.
This is the twenty-seventh discussion session after they entered Baidi Mountain.
It was evening and the sun was setting in the west.
Gu Zhuo was a little tired and said, "That's it for today."
Yu Sheng rubbed his eyebrows and asked softly: "Do you want to give it a try?"
Gu Zhuo said: "That's fine."
Yu Sheng got up and walked out.
The twenty-seventh discussion between the two people was temporarily put on hold, and the next step was naturally to put into practice what they had gained from the discussion.
Cultivation is not only about practicing, but also about fighting.
Many ideas and ideas can only be truly presented in battle. This is what confirmation means.
The battle is of course not between Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng, because the latter is hiding incognito and is not suitable for such a thing, so the person they finally selected is... Bai Langxing.
Yes, he is the third prince of the Great Qin Empire.
……
……
"How many days have it been?"
Bai Langxing opened his eyes wide and his voice was full of panic: "Why are you here again!"
Gu Zhuo asked casually: "Do you want to fight or not?"
He said this, but he had already walked to Bai Langxing's bed, picked up the iron gun hidden under the bed, and threw it over.
Bai Langxing was naturally unwilling to fight Gu Zhuo, because the two had had nearly ten sparring matches in the past two months, and he had never had the upper hand, let alone won.
From the very beginning, when I was very satisfied and convinced that my cultivation on Baidi Mountain was so advanced that no one among my peers could equal me, to the unbelievable defeat, to the dao mind being at a loss to the point of numbness and indifference, to the panic at this moment. , what a sad mental journey this is?
However, with this thought in mind, Bai Langxing finally resolutely picked up the iron gun and walked out of the house. Halfway through, he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Bai Nanming.
Yu Sheng no longer wore the bamboo hat, and his face was still as handsome as usual, concealed by the skills taught by Gu Zhuo.
"Is something wrong?" she asked.
Bai Langxing hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Yu Sheng said: "Speak."
Bai Langxing thought that this man was really cold, and asked in a low voice: "Can you help me persuade him to stop looking for me?"
Yu Sheng said calmly: "How can I persuade someone as determined as him?"
Bailangxing obviously disagrees with this, which is mainly reflected in the following words.
"Gu Zhuo takes you with him even when he comes to Baidi Mountain. He obviously loves you so much. When you lie on the same bed at night, when you are both tired, you can whisper in his ear for me. Say a few words, such as why I am no longer suitable to be his opponent. If you consider this for him, how can he not listen to you? ”
"You are the person closest to him!"
"Of course, I will never let you do this favor in vain. If you want any benefits, just ask..."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The words stopped abruptly.
Yu Sheng smiled at him, then turned around and walked out the door.
Bailangxing was a little puzzled.
Gu Zhuo looked at Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng said expressionlessly: "Stop deliberately holding back your hands."
"Why?"
Gu Zhuo was very puzzled.
Because of what happened in recent days, he did feel a little sorry for Bailangxing.
Yu Sheng said indifferently: "Bailangxing thought we slept in the same room."
Gu Zhuo thought for a while and said, "It's not too strange to have such an idea."
Yu Sheng continued: "Bai Langxing thought we were sleeping in the same bed."
When Gu Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed and said tactfully: "This is indeed easy to misunderstand."
Yu Sheng looked at him quietly and finally said: "Bailangxing still wants me to blow your pillow."
Gu Zhuo was no longer embarrassed.
……
……
Happy times are often the same, the only difference is whether the weather is sunny or not.
Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng didn't care about weather changes, rain or snow. The distinction between time mainly fell on one thing.
——Discuss with Bailangxing.
Of course, the main reason for this lies with Yu Sheng.
All in all, the two of them are now living in a cycle.
Eat, discuss Taoism and practice, beat Bailangxing.
The first two are repeated and the latter is left vacant.
Then one day, while Bai Langxing was recovering from his injuries, he was beaten again.
During this period, Bai Langxing also thought about leaving, but he was reluctant to leave Baidi Mountain. More importantly, every time after being beaten by Gu Zhuo, he always felt that his practice had made progress.
One day later, he even vaguely expected the other party to come to his door, and no longer feared him like a wolf or a tiger.
However, what made him regretful was that Gu Zhuo seemed to have fallen into a difficult problem recently and did not come back for a long time.
Bai Langxing sat on the threshold, looking at the slanting winter sun with a sad expression, and sighed deeply.
He decided that if he couldn't wait for Gu Zhuo to come in a few days, he would pay a visit.
It's just... what should I use as an excuse for this?
It didn't take Bailangxing too long to think of the reason.
——That painting.
As for his aunt's thoughts, first of all, he didn't think that the rumors on Baidi Mountain would spread to the capital of the gods, and even if they were really known... I think his aunt would appreciate his pursuit of truth, right?
……
……
With the passing of a cold rain, time drifts away silently, and spring has arrived.
The trees on Baidi Mountain have not yet sprouted new buds. Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng have made progress in their practice and are waiting for the flowers to bloom.
During the winter they left, several more Bai family ancestral tombs were visited by the two men. Naturally, the tomb-keepers had different requirements for visiting the tombs.
One of the tombs made Gu Zhuo feel deeply complicated.
The complexity is of course not that it is difficult, but that the content of the test is color.
It’s either the empty color in Zen Buddhism, or the word color in wine, sex, and wealth.
In the illusion created by the formation, not only Yu Sheng was standing beside him, but the other girls were naturally no strangers.
This is also the only test that Yu Sheng has not experienced side by side with Gu Zhuo.
What is very interesting is that the ancestor of the Bai family buried in the grave turned out to be a lonely man with no desires.
Later, Gu Zhuo asked Yu Sheng about this matter and received a simple and direct answer.
The main purpose of that formation was to arouse the carnal desires of the person being tested, so that they would not become a de facto eunuch after accepting the inheritance and cut off the bloodline of the Bai family.
As for Bai Nanming?
She had never visited the ancestor in the grave a hundred years ago.
……
……
"How?"
Bai Langxing's eyes were extremely bright, and he said with pride: "Isn't my aunt good-looking when she was young?"
There was no one else in the stone house.
——Yu Sheng was invited out by Bailangxing.
Gu Zhuo didn't speak.
With the skylight falling from the window, he looked at the painting in front of him, his expression gradually becoming serious.
The wind stopped and the snow stopped, and the sky and the earth turned white.
There is a strange pine tree outside the cliff, with a young girl sitting alone on its branch.
The girl was holding a fishing rod with an indifferent expression, treating all living beings as if they were nothing.
"Auntie's painting is not the only one."
Bai Langxing coughed, cleared his throat, and said, "If you still want to see it, you can come see me another day."
After saying this, he graciously left the old painting and turned to leave.
Yu Sheng stood outside the house and heard clearly.
then.
For a long time from now on, Bai Langxing could not see Gu Zhuo again, which made him feel very melancholy.
……
……
In a blink of an eye, it is late spring again and early summer is approaching.
The peach blossoms on the mountain have long bloomed, but Gu Zhuo and Yu Sheng's practice has inevitably slowed down, and they have fallen into trouble caused by time - at some stages of practice, the word time cannot be bypassed.
At the same time, the world was not completely quiet, and news kept coming from down the mountain.
The Zen Sect has already promoted a new national master, who comes from Changle Temple.
But it's not the nunnery leader who has achieved enlightenment.
The court did not express too many opinions on this, and the Queen accepted the result calmly, because this was a covenant made by both parties a hundred years ago, and no one could go back on it.
Pei Jinge is retracing the path Yingxu took. For this reason, she is getting more and more involved in the affairs of the Destiny Sect.
The world gradually came to know that the new leader of the Destiny Sect had an extremely powerful right-hand man who was very capable of killing people.
The situation in the Tianxian Division has stabilized, and the people living in it have begun to miss their past power. The situation of the sect disciples who were forced to leave is still not good. I heard that Chen Chi was sent down the mountain.
After Lin Wanyi broke out of the border, he looked up at Chaotian Jianque and saw no one there, feeling lonely and confused.
Fortunately, the girl's character remained firm and she decided to go down the mountain after careful consideration and began to officially walk the world.
Of course, the letter home that the Empress left to her was opened. There were no words of concern in the letter, but it calmly told a cold and cruel fact.
——The cause of Lin Wanyi's father's death and the inheritance of Yingxu may fall on Gu Zhuo.
As for the former head of the Sky Patrol Department who has passed away?
Just like water disappearing into water, no one knows where he went, not even Qing Xiaoyue knows anything about it.
The only thing people know is that Wuyou Mountain has recovered from the drastic change the year before last and is no longer struggling. It is like a dead tree blooming with new and vigorous vitality.
This is the forty years of becoming a saint.
His Majesty the Emperor is still sitting quietly in Jinghai, not meeting the world, let alone leaving the divine capital.
However, the world is still shrouded in his will.
Purity and silence.
The easy water has no waves.
The same is true for all the sects and thousand-year-old families in the world.
Everyone knows that before His Majesty the Emperor leaves, there will only be peace in the world.
……
……
One day, the sun broke through the clouds and the waves turned red.
"Do you remember?"
Yu Sheng looked at the red sun, narrowed his eyes, and said softly: "Why should I let you come to Baidi Mountain."
Gu Zhuo stood beside her and said, "I have a good memory."
——All things are frosty and innocent.
From late autumn last year to early summer now, the two of them have been preparing to take this thing away for nearly a year.
"Can you tell me now?"
Gu Zhuo's voice was very calm: "Why do you have to go in such a big circle?"
In fact, he already had a guess about the secret hidden in Baidi Mountain, and he was just waiting for final verification.
Yu Sheng was silent for a while and said: "You will know soon."
Gu Zhuo looked at Yu Sheng and said casually: "Like today?"
The rays of the rising sun enveloped the two of them, bringing warmth and soaking into their hearts.
"That's fine."
She took Gu Zhuo's hand and walked towards Tianqiong Peak: "Then let's do it today."
Tianqiong Peak is the highest point of Baidi Mountain.
Buried there are every emperor since the founding of the Qin Dynasty.
