Chapter 145 Going Home
The woman smiled, calm and elegant, and sat down next to Zuo Chen casually, and looked at the noisy monsters in the distance with a few others.
“These children are quite energetic.”
“Indeed.”
“They are a little naughty and occasionally catch passers-by who stray here, but But he has never hurt anyone. He will also give you some rare things after he leaves.”
"I can see that too."
"You are a good person."
"You will not kill yourself in vain."
"In this world, things are not random. There are too few people who kill." The woman sighed.
“It’s wrong to kill at will.” Zuo Chen said.
The two of them sang in harmony, which made Cai Yi next to him look confused.
After searching in his mind for a long time, he was sure that he had never seen a woman floating like this before, so he could only lower his voice and asked Zuo Chen cautiously:
"Taoist priest, this is you An old acquaintance?”
Zuo Chen didn’t know how to answer Caiyi for a while.
Old acquaintance?
Are people we meet from memories considered old acquaintances?
Hearing this, the woman smiled lightly and introduced:
"My Taoist friend and I met a long time ago. I don’t know how many years have passed. Now that I think about it, how many years have passed? How emotional.”
Listening to the woman’s words, Zuo Chen frowned and started thinking.
There is no doubt that this "long time ago" is talking about Jiu'e's memory fragments.
Suddenly he asked:
“You are not a great scholar.”
“I am not an evil thing either.”
“The Immortal of Qingqiu?”
“ No. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Chen took a few more glances at the woman.
Her breath is long and like a net, connecting the huge lake and splitting the mountains and forests in all directions.
Mountain and forest...
Then he showed a trance-like expression and said with a smile:
“I didn’t expect that fellow Taoist could still notice it while sitting on fellow Taoist’s back.”
When the woman saw that Zuo Chen had guessed her identity, the woman also laughed:
"My fellow Taoist spiritual thoughts are unparalleled in modern and ancient times. People with great supernatural powers have always been rare. Even if they are just chasing memories, they will eventually be lost in the years." There are traces left in the river. You have been sitting on my back for a thousand years. Even if Master Qianye can't notice it, I should be able to notice it."
Zuo Chen touched the tip of his nose.
In Jiu'e's memory, Zuo Chen didn't feel like he had been sitting there for thousands of years. The scene in front of him was like a montage of a movie, with the four seasons passing by in a blink of an eye.
Mountains and rivers are changing, and the changes of the years are just the time of a stick of incense in his eyes.
"What should I call you now? Fellow Taoist Fairy Tuo?"
"Xiantuo is the name of my ethnic group, just like the monkey head over there is called Lin Zhongsheng, and Mr. Lu is called Guan Dog Dou, I There are also secular names." The woman said, "Fellow Taoist, just call me Lin Xi."
Nodding, Zuo Chen remembered the name in his heart.
Caiyi beside her was already dizzy after hearing this, but she could only understand one thing:
The Taoist priest had been sitting on this woman’s back for a thousand years, and this woman It is a fairy camel that has transformed into a fairy.
That means...
The Taoist Priest must be several thousand years old now?
Caiyi had known that the Taoist priest was extremely powerful, a rare person in the world, and that he was an immortal. But in her mind, great gods who are over a hundred years old are rare in the world. How could she have expected that this woman would spend thousands of years on Zuo Chen's years as soon as she opened her mouth!
What's more, according to Fairy Lin Xi, when the Taoist Priest sat down, he was just passing the time. How long the Taoist Priest had been walking on the road to immortality, Cai Yi really didn't dare to think about it. .
Caiyi made up her mind that when she was free in the future, she would rub Zuo Chen more and ask him to tell her ancient stories.
He raised his eyes to look at Lin Xi again, and suddenly stretched out his elbow to poke Mr. Donkey who was eating grass next to him:
"Master Donkey, this great immortal has the same position as you."
Mr. Donkey stopped eating grass, raised his head slightly and looked at the beautiful woman, then looked at Caiyi:
"If you really have nothing to do, you can play with those foxes. "
Zuo Chen ignored Suosuo's colorful clothes and the donkey and continued to ask Lin Xi:
"Fellow Taoist, why do you look like this?"
After hearing Zuo Chen's question, Lin Xi's eyes also showed some nostalgia.
After adjusting his tone, he said:
"My body died once, and after I reshaped my spirit, this is what I looked like."
"It seems that my fellow Taoist has also experienced this. A lot of things happened.”
Lin Xi sighed softly and recalled:
"Since fellow Taoist has been sitting on my back for so long, you should also know that not long after Master Qianye left, the little fox who had been missing for a long time also left. It's just that. I was left alone as a fairy camel wandering over the Central Continent, traveling across the rivers and mountains. At that time, I thought that after wandering for a while, I would go look for the great master and Jiunian, but I didn't want the sea of suffering to burst its banks and tear the entire North Continent away. Even I can't cross the huge waves and cross the sea and the river. "With no choice, I can only return to Zhongzhou, where I watch the sects fighting among themselves and the immortals fleeing, just to avoid it. The sea of suffering swallows the world, and there will be no recovery.
“Later, the sea of suffering became more and more overflowing, more and more people were displaced, and there were fewer and fewer places for living creatures to live. In order to save people, I carried them all on my back and searched for them. He flew over the highest mountains and plains in Central Continent.”
Sighing softly, he continued:
"I left a little later, and when I was about to take off, the sky-swallowing black waves were already behind me, roaring wildly, swallowing the earth and annihilating the world. I watched so many people being swallowed by the sea of misery, and watched them suffer in pain. They were rising and falling in the whirlpool, wailing to me, begging me to save them, but I’m not that capable. I can’t save them.”
Zuo Chen, who was only listening on the side, seemed to see that scene. It's like a doomsday scene. The huge black waves swallowed the earth at an astonishing speed. Above the huge waves, the huge fairy camel struggled to fly forward, riding on the waves. The camel's back was crowded with people, and it was uneasy.
Below the fairy camel, in the sea of suffering, stretched out countless black arms, clawing towards the sky, shouting for help.
During that time, Zuo Chen could not see how many immortals were running away and mortals were separated, but Lin Xi's words were like heavy iron, which could still weigh on Zuo Chen's heart.
Lin Xi also seemed to be recalling that time, and paused for a few seconds before continuing:
"I was carrying too many people, so I flew a little slow, and I accidentally flew. After I arrived at a safe place with the crowd, I could only let the creatures behind me find their own way to survive. Got off.
"I thought I would never wake up, but I didn't expect that when I opened my eyes again, I turned into a ball of spiritual energy and gathered on the spiritual pond left by Master Qianye. I think this should be the magic technique left by Master Qianye to protect my soul. "
Lin Xi's face also turned slightly red:
"At that time, I didn't have the posture of a real person for a long time, floating with my soul, observing the big body that my body transformed into. dense forest.
"I can see the people I brought down leave the forest and go to other places in Zhongzhou. I can also see some people with great supernatural powers who created immortal shuttles to fly away from this world, and some are thinking about the suffering of mortals. , staying in the troubled times, trying to use my own magic to save them and dissolve the sea of suffering.
"More recently, people have left the forest, and I can't continue to look at the entire dense forest, my thoughts are locked in it. On this plain, the great supernatural beings seemed to have died, and I could only stay with the animals. ”
When the words came to this, the foxes not far away finally stopped playing and put the dizzy Hu Wen back on the ground.
There were a few sharp-eyed ones. When the foxes saw Lin Xi coming out, they all called "Master" and moved towards her.
The fastest foxes came to Lin Xi's feet, rolling and fighting, while those who were slower could only do it. Gathered outside, watching eagerly
Even the eldest lady dragged the dizzy Hu Wen over and squatted at the back of the foxes, relatively reserved.
Lin Xi's eyes were filled with tenderness, and she stretched out her hand to gently stroke the nearest fox fur.
"It's funny to say that when a red fox ran to the edge of the pond, I finally transformed.
"When I lowered my head and saw the reflection of the lake, I finally I found that I looked exactly like Master Chiba.
“Maybe I’m just thinking about when Master Chiba will come back, and when the boy I’ve missed for a long time will come back.
"I'm thinking, when can that person sit on this lotus pond again, holding a sutra, slowly preaching about Buddha, reciting the purity of mind, and talking about the peace of the five senses.
"So when I saw these foxes, I He will look like a great master. ”
When Zuo Chen heard this, he finally understood why the fairy camel turned into such a look.
Being silent for a few seconds, he turned the cuffs outward and removed the A golden thought came out.
"This is it?" ”
After Lin Xi's eyes fell on this thought, she trembled slightly for a moment.
She could feel a very familiar scent.
"This is Jiu'e, and it is also Jiu Nian."
"He...why?"
"When the sea of suffering overflowed, he stood on the front line and stopped it. Disaster in the ocean of suffering.”
"..."
"Incarnated as an evil beast, I took away his calamity, and he only had this one thought left."
He stretched out his hand to hold it, his spiritual thoughts floating lightly.
Lin Xi stretched out her hands and held the golden shimmer in her palms.
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the half-dark warm sun cast a golden light on the plain, and also illuminated pieces of golden gauze covering the floating thoughts.
When Lin Xi encountered the faint golden light, the familiar feeling surged in her heart and was difficult to calm down.
She can be sure that this is Jiunian.
He held up his thoughts as if they were treasures and walked slowly towards the lotus pond.
The foxes gathered nearby didn't know why their respected master had such an expression. One of them had sharp eyes. Under the sunset, he looked at Lin Xi's face and suddenly called out softly:
“The master cried.”
The noisy foxes slowly calmed down, and they all carefully tightened their heads, fearing that Lin Xi would not want him anymore because of their troubles.
But Lin Xi just walked to the lotus pond step by step, knelt down on one knee, and placed this thought on the lotus pond as if placing a flower.
The water ripples gently, and the streamer moves with the water.
The wind blowing through the forest for no reason caused the leaves to rustle, and also disturbed the insects hidden among the leaves.
I saw Yingying fireflies flying up in shock like stars in the sky, humming gently in the wind.
Beside the pool, two shadows appeared vaguely.
This woman in a white dress sits cross-legged, holding a scripture in her hand and speaking softly.
Between her knees, a little fox hovered in a circle, raising its head slightly.
The wanderer has been away from home for a long time.
Finally home.
