Chapter 49 Sadness and Joy
Jingchen Mountain, Covering Cloud Peak.
The sun has reached noon, and there is a bright scene in front of the cave. The skylight is constantly hitting the stone bones, hitting fine pieces of gold.
Zhou Luoyun sat quietly. Above the door, like smoke and clouds, he was running his skills and polishing his foundation.
Since he came to the mountain, he has not slacked off for a day. He is either doing tasks or practicing Xuan Gong. He is steady and making progress every day.
Today, the same is true.
This area is very quiet, there is no sound of springs, no singing of birds, only unknown wild flowers growing in the valley. Sometimes the branches tremble slightly, and three or two petals as big as fists will fall and fall to the ground, spreading the fragrance all over the ground.
The empty valley is silent, sitting and listening to the flowers falling, there is a kind of tranquility, far away from the noise.
Without the intrigues within the clan, without the great expectations that were weighing on me, there was only a heart of cultivation, falling into this world of mortals, crystal clear and spotless.
The aura on Zhou Luoyun's body became more and more ethereal, and the light surrounding his whole body seemed to be particularly brilliant at this moment, as if it were real.
An hour later, Zhou Luoyun opened his eyes, and the ethereal aura on his body dissipated. He looked at another wild flower falling. The fragrance was fragrant and hit his mouth and nose. He couldn't help but sigh, and returned to reality, his expression changed again. Be firm.
In this world, you can’t just look at poetry and the distance, and think about enlightenment and soaring. You must practice step by step, and a wealthy couple is indispensable.
To find the way to immortality, monks cannot just meditate in a silent valley, they must care about their financial partner.
The higher the ambition, the higher the requirements for the wealthy couple.
Zhou Luoyun rarely has great ambitions, so he came to the Jingchen Dharma Conference, expecting to be on a bigger stage, get a better "Wealth Couple Dharma Land", and "protect Dharma" for his practice. Otherwise, if he stayed in the Zhou family in Hengnan, he would also have a "rich couple", but the upper limit would be there.
Zhou Luoyun stood up, walked around, first glanced at the Zhenyi Sect's sect talisman hanging on his waist, and then took out a communication gold leaf from his sleeve. Seeing that there was also a dark light on it, his eyes couldn't help but change. Got to be gloomy.
At this moment, a burst of bells appeared out of thin air, breaking the peace everywhere. When he heard the sound and looked around, he saw a girl with thin eyebrows and big eyes turning around the corner of the rock. She was wearing a floral dress. She wears a long skirt and wears bells of different sizes on her ankles, which keep ringing when she moves around.
When she saw Zhou Luoyun, her eyes lit up and she asked directly: "How are you thinking about it?"
"Me,"
The girl's voice was louder than The bells on her ankles were ringing loudly, but after hearing it, a trace of pain appeared on Zhou Luoyun's face.
Seeing that Zhou Luoyun had not yet made up his mind, the girl patiently tried to persuade him: "The Zhenyi Sect will only accept one person as a disciple at the Jingchen Dharma Assembly, and it must be Zhou Qing. Don't take any chances."
< br>"If you hesitate again, I'm afraid you will get nothing at the Dharma meeting this time. In the end, you will have no choice but to turn back to the family in despair."
Listening to these words, Zhou Luoyun thought about what he would do if he returned. Hengnan Zhou's heart trembled at the consequences, and she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves. It was just a matter of paying back the cynicism from his rivals in the clan, but he would never stand it if he failed to live up to the expectations of his clan elders.
“Think about it carefully.” The girl from Doumu Palace nodded and said no more, “There is only more than a month left for the Jingchen Dharma Ceremony.”
Zhou Luoyun once again glanced at the Zhenyi Sect Talisman on his waist and the communication gold leaf in his sleeve, but there was still no movement. He spoke with difficulty and said to Du Yanxi: "I will give you an answer in the next two days."
Du Yanxi's beautiful eyes rolled around and she glanced at Zhou Luoyun. She was convinced that the result was good and said with a smile: "Okay."
After Zhou Luoyun waited for Du Yanxi, the female disciple of Doumu Palace, to leave, he A man was left alone on the mountain. He was holding the talisman of the Zhenyi Sect around his waist, and his face was livid.
In the empty valley all around, flowers were blooming and falling. At this time, in his feeling, it was no longer quiet and elegant, but a kind of depression.
It makes people crazy and crazy!
"Shinichi."
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Luoyun gritted his teeth and spat out these two words. He stamped his feet, left this place, and returned to the Hengnan Zhou family's foothold in Jingchen Mountain.
In the room, a startling rainbow hung down, and the bottom was like a ring, decorated with spiritual inscriptions, colorful. Zhou Ruoyan was sitting in the ring, with light blooming all over her body. She saw Zhou Luoyun come in, and the jade There was no expression on the face, but he just said: "What's the matter?"
"I,"
Zhou Luoyun opened his mouth to speak, but for some reason, the following words were simply unbearable. He He only said one word and got stuck. Next, I can't say anything.
Zhou Ruoyan looked at the talented man in front of him. He was different from the cool and unrestrained man in the past. Now he was sweating profusely and looked ugly. He made a judgment and turned his eyes. His jade face was like ice skin thawing. Winter is gone and spring is coming. , a smile appeared, and his voice became gentle, and said: "Luoyun, tell me slowly, you are already very good to be recommended by your family to participate in the Jingchen Dharma Assembly." "I'm here to get the sect talisman from Doumu Palace. ”
Zhou Luoyun almost mustered up his last ray of strength. When he said this sentence, his voice suddenly became hoarse, his face was ashen, his body was shaky, and the pain soaked into his bone marrow, making it difficult to extricate himself.
To obtain the sect's talisman from Doumu Palace is tantamount to officially giving up on the True One Sect.
You know, since learning that the Zhenyi Sect participated in this Jingchen Dharma Assembly, Zhou Luoyun has made up his mind to pass the Dharma Assembly and join the Shangxuanmen Zhenyi Sect.
For this reason, he not only adjusted his state and prepared carefully, but also used some shameful means to suppress possible competitors.
For the Jingchen Dharma Conference to enter the True Sect, this was his goal, and he tried his best.
And now, hope is dashed!
All the longings, all the preparations, all the hard work, all came to nothing, leaving only disappointment and ridicule!
Zhou Ruoyan looked at Zhou Luoyun who seemed to be in a state of despair, and sighed in her heart. She had experienced this kind of failure and knew the struggle and pain involved.
Nine to eight out of ten people are unhappy in life.
With a move of her hand, Zhou Ruoyan took the Zhenyi Sect Talisman hanging from Zhou Luoyun's waist, and then with a little finger, another starry Talisman flew out. When she arrived in front of Zhou Luoyun, she said: "Dou The Mother Palace is also the Shangxuan Sect, and the power in this area is still higher than that of the Zhenyi Sect. It would be good if you can enter the Doumu Palace. It will be easier to contact the family in the future. "
That's what he said. But Zhou Ruoyan knew in his heart that compared to entering the True Sect, if Zhou Luoyun entered Doumu Palace, his future cultivation would be much more bumpy.
“This second choice will most likely be the last one, so make good use of it.”
“I know.”
Zhou Luoyun took a deep breath and reluctantly After regaining his composure, he took off the talisman of Doumu Palace and held it in his hand, then bowed to Zhou Ruoyan and turned around to go out.
Before I knew it, it was evening.
The setting sun spread over the mountains, and the flaming red light illuminated the sparse forests all around. Zhou Luoyun was in a restless mood, one foot was light and the other was heavy. As soon as he reached the door, he saw a person stepping on the opposite side. Come up the mountain road.
The person who came had a pair of sharp eyebrows on the temples, and the eyes below were as bright as stars, shining with high energy. The red light of the evening fell all around, and there was no trace of the gloom of twilight. Instead, there was a majestic and majestic glow that covered the sky.
“Zhou Qing!”
After seeing the person clearly, Zhou Luoyun stopped, and the mentality that had finally been stabilized was once again stirred up, and cracks appeared.
"Zhou Luoyun." After Zhou Qing was promoted to the fourth realm of Taoism, he not only sensed the vitality of heaven and earth, but his six senses also improved to a higher level, so he immediately discovered the kind of talisman on Zhou Luoyun's sleeve. With a unique Qi machine, there was an inexplicable look in his eyes, and he said: "I said, no matter how hard you try, you can't enter the Zhenyi Sect."
After hearing this, Zhou Luoyun felt veins on his forehead twitching and his teeth clenched. There was a rattling sound, and the body was shaking.
He was completely defeated and couldn’t even refute.
At this moment, Zhou Luoyun even felt a sense of violence in his heart, wishing that he would use any means to truly eliminate Zhou Qing in the Zhou family's clan in Hengnan that day.
But the thought only passed by for a moment, and he quickly suppressed it.
Because Zhou Luoyun knew that it was impossible for him to do that. He was raised by his family and has always followed the family's rules.
A family cannot be a perfect family without rules.
Zhou Luoyun took several deep breaths in succession to calm down his mood. He tightened his grip on the Doumu Palace sect talisman in his hand, stopped talking, lowered his head, and went down.
Zhou Qing smiled, and instead of adding insult to injury, he waved his sleeves and went up.
Two young people passed each other.
Under the light of the setting sun, those who go down the mountain are full of bitterness and hatred, with shadows on their faces, while those who go up are smiling and looking forward to the glory.
