Chapter 111 Back to the past?
"To have a tacit understanding, you must have feelings. But the monks in this world, no matter what sect they are, whether they are immortals or demons, for tens or hundreds of years, they all get rid of distracting thoughts and indulge in cultivation. There is a secret to feelings. A person can never be enlightened in his life, so what kind of disciples can he choose from those who have not yet reached the level of cultivation?" Du Ruo said it seriously, and he said it with his palms touching each other, speaking vividly.
Guanyue shook her head speechlessly and asked: "Then it doesn't have to be an immortal couple, right?"
"Yes," Du Ruofei answered quickly: "Friends are fine, like you and me, but I don't want to be."
Guanyue:......
Du Ruo pointed his fingers earnestly and analyzed: "Friends, long-time friends, must have a tacit understanding, they must be high-level monks, and both of them must be willing to endure hardships and take risks. To meet these conditions, where can it be so easy to find those high-level monks? Either I haven't seen you for many years, or my cultivation is great, if I practice these two swords together, no one will die!" After saying that, he looked to He Qing for approval: "Really?"
He Qing took a deep breath and covered his lips, as if he was pondering, but in fact he was almost laughing: It should be said or not, although this Du Ruo seems to be talking nonsense, but it is indeed the truth...
Seeing that He Qing didn't respond, Du Ruo was not discouraged and continued: "The immortal couple is different. They have awakened early and regard feelings as extremely important. Although they have been criticized among monks for a long time, they It requires tacit understanding, cultivation and cultivation, and there is no difference between life and death together. How good it is." After saying that, he laughed slyly and said, "Besides, if either party is unwilling, then the other party can cancel it directly. Immortal lovers are in a relationship, and they will no longer love each other, and they will only pursue immortality. Maybe they can go one step further. "
He Qing couldn't help but laugh and curse: Good guy, this is a make-or-break scheme, it's really damaging...
Guanyue held her forehead and sighed: "Du Ruo, you really should reflect on why you are not the head of Kaiyang Palace."
"Why should I review?" Du Ruo spread his hands confidently: "I just want to be immortal. I have been doing so many things as a leader. Look, my senior brother has been around for decades, and he is almost as old as Master Xuanqing. "
Now He Qing couldn't help it anymore, she laughed out loud and almost burst into tears. She patted Du Ruo on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Du Ruo, I realize that you are truly a good person for cultivating immortality. "
Sober, rational, free and easy, casual, and easily satisfied, because he never picks it up and never puts it down. If such a person is willing to cultivate immortality, it will feel really easy.
Du Ruo looked at He Qing with a puzzled expression: "What do you mean? Haven't I been cultivating?"
He Qing waved his hand, ignored the topic, and said to him and Guanyue: "It is not my place to consider who to choose to practice the dual swords. Whether it is an intermediate disciple or a high-level monk, I will always find the right one." candidate.”
Du Ruo said: "Don't you have a suitable one there? Just Chang Nian. He is already at the out-of-body stage. You two masters and disciples have been practicing together for many years. It's not easy to practice two swords together." ?”
As soon as these words came out, the originally lively atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point. Du Ruoye realized belatedly that he had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized with a smile: "Oh, it seems... it's not appropriate either." He He crooked Guanyue with his elbow and asked for help: "He and Chi Yu might be better suited, right?"
As a result, Guan Yue not only failed to help ease the atmosphere, but also lost her temper. This time, she was even more stiff.
Guanyue ignored Du Ruo, remained silent, and suddenly said to He Qing, who was also sullen, "He Qing, do you and I want to give it a try?"
"What?" He Qing and Du Ruo had their faces covered.
Guanyue said: "I just thought about it carefully, and what Du Ruo said has some truth to it. There are many uncertainties in practicing the combination of two swords. Since high skills are hard to find, why not just you and me give it a try, in case it works. , which reduces a lot of risks.”
Guan Yue spoke very slowly and seemed very cautious, but He Qing still saw that Guan Yue actually realized from Du Ruona's messy words that if Gu Changnian ran for election, Hua Chi Yu might also be selected.
He Qing understood his concerns, but... "Sorry," He Qing smiled calmly: "I don't plan to run."
Guanyue looked suspicious: "Are you worried that you won't be able to practice it and will go crazy? Just give it a try, it won't be like this."
He Qing shook his head and said tepidly: "I know myself well, and I can't practice it." After saying that, he didn't wait for Guanyue to ask again, nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I've been delayed for a long time, first. Farewell."
After turning around, the smile on He Qing's face disappeared, and a trace of desolation flashed in his eyes——
Even though she didn't want to stand beside that person in order to protect herself, how could she learn it when she knew who this swordsmanship was aimed at...
※
It was night, and He Qing lay half-formed under the peach blossom tree in the courtyard. The cold moonlight passed through the leafy crown of the tree, casting mottled tree shadows on He Qing's face.
Under the hazy moonlight, He Qing stared at "Lu Li's" room from a distance, feeling extremely depressed——
She originally thought that her heart was firm and hard enough, but she never thought that within one day of her return, her defenses would be slightly broken.
He Qing waved his sleeves and robes carelessly, and used a trick to create a wine pot and a wine glass. The wine pot poured the wine on its own. He Qing drank it all in one gulp, knowing that he could not relieve his sorrow.
She said lazily: "Come out, I've been standing here for a long time."
After the words fell for a while, a person walked out from the shadows of the corridor. It was Gu Changnian who had been standing there for a long time.
Gu Changnian walked slowly into the moonlight with his long hair loose and only a single piece of clothing on. His figure looked a little lonely.
"Master." Gu Changnian called softly and looked at the wine set next to He Qing: "You have always taught me that monks need to observe the precepts."
He Qing held up the wine bottle with his index finger and shook it: "A blind trick."
Gu Changnian lowered his eyes and said nothing. He knew that this was a deception, but even if it was a deception, it could still prove that He Qing was depressed at this time. He was so depressed that even if he used false methods, he would be able to alleviate it a little bit.
"I'm too lazy to argue with you about Yuling Palace. After all, you have helped me." He Qing put his finger on the rim of the wine glass, shook it left and right, and said casually: "As for you For what purpose, you don’t need to tell me, I don’t want to know.”
"..." Gu Changnian closed his eyes to calm down the complicated emotions swirling in his heart, breathed a long sigh of relief, knelt down opposite He Qing, and said in a low voice: "Master, we really can't go back to the past. ”
"Ha. Go back to the past..." He Qing sneered and gave him a playful look: "Are you sure you want to go back to the past?"
Apparently Gu Changnian also heard the implication of He Qing's words, and his already haggard face had become a bit paler recently.
