Chapter 319 The ancestor doesn't like it
"Please don't misunderstand it, this is not my disrespect for you."
Lin Qianshui said sincerely, "On the contrary, it is precisely because I have the greatest respect for you that I will get straight to the point at this time."
She paused and then added: "Of course, you can also understand this as a means to win you with honesty, just like I have actually seen many girls pretending to be generous in God in order to make men feel secretly close to each other. I will not feel uncomfortable or sad about this. I know very well what I am doing."
Gu Zhuo looked at her and suddenly said, "There will be people who are unclear."
Lin Qianshui was slightly stunned, subconsciously thinking that the sentence meant a blow to her, but she thought it was not the case. Perhaps it was a pure curiosity.
After a moment of contemplation, she said, "Judging by the things I have seen, more people know what they are doing, but are unwilling to admit what they are doing."
It was quiet under the dim lights.
"I used to be like this."
Lin Qianshui smiled, her smile was very light and said, "I will tell myself that everything I do is forced by life, and it is definitely not my true thoughts. As long as I become truly amazing, all of these can be exchanged for it. Until one day, I looked back and found that in fact, the moment I did not refuse completely, it means that I could accept those proposals...often not once or twice."
Gu Zhuo asked, "Then why do you think you are different from before?"
Lin Qianshui was still smiling and said self-deprecatingly: "The reason is not special at all. It is very vulgar. It is because the mountain is too boring and quiet, so quiet that I can't calm down at all, so I can only think about it... The more I think about the past, the more I find the childishness of the past, and then I make up my mind to cut the mat with myself in secret, that's the case."
"If I hadn't come to Xuandu, my family was destroyed and my family was homeless, I think I would never have the truth I am in this life, or... the falsehood in my youth would have become the truth I am in my old age."
The mockery in the corner of her lips fades, no longer so complicated. She smiled and said, "When it is true, it is also false. What you said is very suitable for use in such things."
Gu Zhuo thought to himself that I had said this?
The conversation ends here.
Just as he was about to walk out of the library, Lin Qianshui's voice sounded again, with a sincere meaning.
"In the days when I was thinking about these questions, I finally thought of a question. If I had grown old in the past and saw me as young now, when I disdained to mock myself, I asked myself what I felt when I looked at me now. Will the old man be ashamed to be ashamed?"
"Huh?"
Gu Zhuo was a little interested and turned around to look at the woman behind the door.
Under the lights, Lin Qianshui smiled happily, probably really proud.
Her smile slowly became reserved, as if a noble lady said to herself, "Don't worry, you will have the day you grow old, I hope I can live until you ask me for tea and chat."
Gu Zhuo thought about the scene and felt it was indeed interesting and nodded slightly.
Lin Qianshui smiled and asked seriously: "I'm very curious. What do you think you would say to you in the past?"
Until the moment she couldn't see her back clearly, she still couldn't wait for Gu Zhuo's answer.
After leaving the library, Gu Zhuoyi followed her old memories and walked towards the ancestor hall of the Tiandao Sect.
The night has arrived, and the temples scattered among the mountains are pitch black, and under the dark sky, they are like countless dead giants.
Walking through the corpse of the giants, it seemed as if the candlelight from the depths of the pupils reflected into Gu Zhuo's eyes. There was the Palace of the Ancestors, or a god who did not want to die.
Gu Zhuo walked to the front of the hall.
The wind blew around him and didn't want to disperse, but no trace of it blew into the hall.
The pictures of the ancestors and ancestors of the Heavenly Dao Sect are like murals, and have never changed with the arrival of Gu Zhuo.
Gu Zhuo looked deep in the Taoist hall, his eyes fell on the back of the young senior brother. He gradually saw the well and also saw the souls of the great people hidden in the well.
He stood in front of the threshold like this, and it didn't matter that the night became deeper and the smell of death in the silence became stronger and stronger.
During this long silence, many memories emerged and surged, and those memories were scattered throughout most of his previous life... It was so long that it was boring.
Looking back now, the reason why he was reluctant to come to this mountain in the years after his resurrection was probably because he hated the inevitable feelings of the scene at this moment?
I don’t know how long it took, but Gu Zhuo woke up.
He said to the ancestors, "I have a few words to talk to you."
There was silence in the hall.
Gu Zhuo said, "The reason why the Taoist sect lost a hundred years ago is because you never thought about winning from the beginning. I already knew this fact in my previous life."
Still no response.
"Of course it is a very bad thing to lose, but winning is even worse."
Gu Zhuo said calmly: "I am alive, not only the biggest obstacle you face, but also the only uncontrollable insider."
Xuan Shu, who was kneeling on the cushion, turned around and looked at each other in silence, wondering why he wanted to say these words.
"When I entered the world and broke up with the Tiandao Sect in a de facto way, you were even more worried."
Gu Zhuo said: "It took thousands of years and nearly ten thousand years to embody the dreams of so many people's hopes. I can't afford such huge risks. It's natural to think about how to limit me."
Xuanshu is still silent.
The difference is that his eyes gradually got older and had a familiar smell.
"The best way is to fight."
Gu Zhuotan said, "So the war comes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the first night wind finally came to the Ancestor Hall, and a portrait floated up.
In his eyes, the great soul slowly crawled out from the ancient deep well carried by the young Taoist.
An old voice followed.
"If I were you, since I knew it but didn't say anything, I wouldn't say a word in my life."
Gu Zhuo ignored him.
Even though he knew that the ninth generation of the head of the Tiandao Sect was the one who could not be skipped in the history of practice, he had the power to inherit the past and enlighten the future in the Taoist sect, and was respected by later generations as the true man of Guangyuan.
He even clearly remembered that this great figure in the history of Taoism would become one of the six emperors in the heavenly court and have an almost supreme position.
"Why did Emperor Bai make Wangjing become an abolished capital? The Taoist sect, which originally had an absolute advantage, gradually fall into the quagmire? It is because you think that the most appropriate situation is to divide the world into two parts and divide the rivers."
Gu Zhuo said, "This is the so-called truth of the will of heaven that people have speculated to this day."
Another great figure climbed out of the ancient well, his voice cold and like the winter wind.
"If you want to use the current situation to mock the decision of that year, why not recall that you are also a person in the game and have never transcended it."
This person's identity is no less than that of true person Guangyuan, and he also has an important position in the heavenly court.
Gu Zhuo said softly, "Actually these words are my guess."
"But..."
He paused, looked at the ancient portraits and said, "It has become a fact now."
A new and brisk voice came, still from Xuanshu's young body's mouth, but it was the voice of a woman. "In your state back then, you shouldn't have realized the truth tonight. This is not a mockery or a sarcasm. My opinion has not changed. You have no fate with conspiracy and intrigues. Concentrating on practicing is the most suitable way of living. I'm sorry that I've given you advice, and you still don't want to listen to it tonight."
Gu Zhuo said to himself: "During the time when I stood in front of the hall before I could speak, I was thinking about one question besides my memories, that is, whether you have any backup plan in this world."
The answer still comes from the Taoist nun: "Although the result a hundred years ago was not expected and brought us unexpected huge troubles, I can give you a clear answer, and there are still many cards that belong to us in this world."
The true man of Guangyuan said calmly: "The accumulation of this sect for nearly ten thousand years and the hard work of more than twenty people in the feather world can be destroyed by this thousand-year Qin?"
"This principle is simple. You realize it is very good, but you shouldn't ask, it will make you look stupid."
Another ancestor took over the conversation: "I can tell you clearly that there are people in the world who can continue the inheritance for us at any time, which is why we are willing to see you tonight."
Gu Zhuo sighed a little and said, "Living for a long time is indeed a very important thing."
I don’t know when the wind has dispersed.
In the silence, the more than twenty ancestors of the Heavenly Dao Sect and the ancestors had all walked out of the portrait and stood in the world in Gu Zhuo's eyes.
The darkness outside the hall was extremely dark, covering the entire sky like ink, covering the moonlight and starlight.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
"Do you know why we agreed to let Xuanshu meet you?"
The Taoist nun smiled and said, "The most important reason is of course that he likes you very much. This kind of liking makes him always think that you have the possibility of giving up on persisting, but more importantly, we want to meet you."
"The meeting is for a meaningful conversation, not a meaningless quarrel and confrontation. Since you are willing to stand in front of the hall tonight, it means you have thought about this conversation."
Guanyuan Zhenren said seriously: "You should still remember what one of the juniors said to you that year, and the criticism of the ancestors."
Gu Zhuo recalled for a moment and asked, "Millions of years have their own end."
"Not bad."
The Taoist nun looked at him and said softly: "We have also been thinking about this hundred years, thinking about why we were defeated a hundred years ago, and both of you were hurt so much that it would benefit the Bai family fisherman."
A wise man said, "It is naturally a warning to us when the mechanism has ended in such a result? But isn't it the best reminder?"
Gu Zhuo said, "Reminder?"
"No destruction, no establishment, no death, no life."
A new voice appeared: "Reincarnation is certainly a Zen saying, but it may not be a biased view."
Gu Zhuo understood.
At this moment, the familiar and tired voice from the senior brother finally rang out, giving the final conclusion to the conversation.
"The Heavenly Court is a flower blooming on the corpse of the Heavenly Dao Sect."
"Only death can bring about real life."
"Everyone should be in its place."
"You should return with faith."
"You will be the Lord of Heaven."
"Everything you care about in this world will last forever or be annihilated by your will."
Long time of quiet.
Whether it was Gu Zhuo, the ancestors and sages of the Tiandao Sect, or even Xuanshu, they were silent.
This is the first official conversation between the two sides since the disagreement that year, about the future of the world and the promise not made that year.
Yes, the reason why Gu Zhuo did not answer Yu Sheng's inquiry was not because of disgust and pretending to be mysterious, but because he had turned around and left before the ancestors gave the conditions.
"I have one last question."
"If you are asking where the ancestors go, the answer is transcendence."
"Are you detached?"
"Yes, things have come to this point. You should know that we have no need to deceive you. This conversation tonight is unprecedentedly open and honest, because we have been waiting for your return."
A few simple sentences depict an infinitely beautiful future, and everything is close to you.
Gu Zhuo carried his hands on his back, his eyes landed at the end of the hall, where a portrait of the founder of the Kaizhai hung.
The handsome and handsome man in the portrait cannot find any fresh atmosphere. It is completely different from those sages who walked out of the painting. He probably has really reached the immortals and left.
"Lething..."
Gu Zhuo recited these two words softly and recalled the words he said to Daoxiu in front of Weiyang Palace.
He told the monk that he had already ascended to the immortal world a hundred years ago, but he had not taken that step forward.
Facing this fact, Taoist is completely confused and confused, and no matter how he thinks it is ridiculous.
Gu Zhuo did not explain this.
The reason is very simple.
"Actually, I don't need to be the Lord of Heaven you promised."
He said, "As early in the past, I could have ascended to the immortal world."
There was silence between the scenes.
Those old eyes were full of surprise and unbelievable.
Gu Zhuo continued, "Why do I still want to stay in this world?"
"Of course, it's because I don't like your opinion and am ready to destroy the heaven you dream of, and it is because of this that you almost died and slept for a hundred years."
He said, "From this perspective, I have real admiration for you. After all, I still respected my teachers and was truly vigilant about you."
The Taoist nun frowned and said in a deep voice: "It makes no sense. If you had already reached that step back then, there would be no possibility for us to make you fall into that situation."
As soon as the words fell, the ancestors suddenly realized a possible existence and their expressions changed suddenly.
"Yes."
Gu Zhuo smiled and said, "I think so too. You were just like this in your lifetime. How could I be punished by heaven after death? So there is actually an explanation for this matter."
No one answered, they were silent.
"It's probably the only explanation..."
While speaking, Gu Zhuo took that step and walked into the ancient hall with a calm expression.
He looked at the portrait of the ancestor and finally said, "The ancestor doesn't like the promise you gave me."
