I will Bury the Gods Chapter 241: : The crime of Xiaoyu has been edicted
"These days, as long as I close my eyes, I will think of the prophecy of the patriarch. It is a burning flame that makes me toss and turn, unable to sleep. From time to time, I will go to see the child in the swaddle. Some are ugly, they have bloated bodies, wrinkled skin, and cry all day long, but he is different, according to the prophecy of the patriarch, he is the heir of the devil."
"Prophecy...it's a prophecy again. On that day, I went to the dead city, and my friend Jing Yezi got it from divination for me. When I first met Jing Yezi decades ago, he was still a poor man. Alchemist, although he often compares himself to Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang, but his calculations are not accurate, and he often misses out. If I hadn't helped him many times, he would have died of starvation and poverty. But these years, he has become richer and richer. See you again When he was young, he wore a high Taoist crown and a rhinoceros jade belt, and the fans around him were all dignitaries."
"People in the world pass him on like a god, saying that he is born with dharma, he is the reincarnation of the Buddha, and he knows the past and the future. I also asked him why you have become so skilled. , In a snowy day, when he was fainting and dying. I know, he didn't tell me the truth."
"Two months ago, Jing Yezi found me and asked me to go to that famous city. I asked him why, but he didn't tell me, but told me the truth about the past."
"He said that he was just a charlatan in the past, and he only knew simple things. One day, as usual, he set up a stall on the street to cheat. A rich man suddenly found him and asked him to help him. After the calculation, he told the hexagram truthfully. When he closed the stall in the evening, the rich man surrounded him with a group of people. He thought that his nonsense caused some trouble, so he turned around and was about to run away. , call him a god."
"After that, he found that his calculations were unexpectedly accurate, which made him feel scared. He remembered many ancestral teachings of those who leaked the secrets, but greed overwhelmed fear, and he began to massacre To collect money, and never compare himself to Li Yuan, he feels that he has completely surpassed all his predecessors."
"But two months ago, when he found me, he was very weak. He held my hand and said that he was very scared, because he found that his calculations were almost correct. I asked, do you Shouldn’t he be happy? Why should he be afraid? He replied, if the fortune-telling is accurate enough, doesn’t it mean that the future of the world is freezing and people are falling into the quagmire of inescapable fate?”
"'The world was not like this in the past' he said. At that time, he tried to pry into numerology from Zhouyi, turtle shells, palm prints, and celestial phenomena, but found nothing, but now, the world is happening where people can't see it. After earth-shaking changes, a huge "demon" was born, it is in charge of everything in the future, it can account for everyone's choices, it will make the fate public, and wandering Taoist priests are its mouthpiece."
"He told me that he planned to live in seclusion in the future. I thought he was going to retire completely, but he said that he would keep counting until he figured out the ultimate mystery of the world. When he said this, his eyes were red and he gritted his teeth, like A real madman."
"Two months later, I picked up this child in the dead city, I pried open his mouth, and saw the black scales, 'The evil dragon reincarnated as a human, holding the reverse scale in his mouth, to bring disaster to the common people', The brief prophecy passed down secretly by the patriarch exploded in my heart."
"I have the ability to decide the life and death of this child, but I don't have the slightest joy of being in charge of fate. On the contrary, I feel Jing Yezi's fear in my place. I know that from the moment I have the ability to decide the direction of fate, I have also become a slave of fate."
“…”
It was getting dark outside, and the light on Gongyu's palm was getting brighter and brighter. The words on the booklet seemed to be dancing with the flames, showing a twisted and strange feeling, and there were not many new things recorded in it. , but the desperate sense of fate has passed through the back of the paper, infecting the viewer.
Xiaohe also stood behind Lin Shouxi and watched the notes with him. She couldn't help but think of the fortune teller she met that day. She gave him Lin Shouxi's horoscope. Neither is right.
After reading this note, Lin Shouxi realized that the rumors that were once widely circulated in the sect when he was a child have such a long history.
This is the first few pages of the notes, with correct handwriting.
"Frozen fate..." Lin Shouxi murmured softly, "How is this possible? If fate really exists, wouldn't the freedom that humans think is a joke?"
"I also noticed this many years ago."
Gong Yu slightly parted his red lips, and said: "But this kind of calculation is usually only for mortals. Most mortals live in one place all their lives, and the highest official they can come into contact with is no more than the county magistrate. The real big event in life is nothing more than Weddings and funerals, many people, even if they don't understand numerology, can easily see through the life of a cowherd boy, because most of their life trajectories are too simple, but the life of a monk is unpredictable. A good alchemist may be able to calculate a few major events that they must go through in their lives, but they cannot say for their lives, so...don't be too afraid."
After hearing this, Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe showed no relief on their faces.
"Could it be that the alchemist is not smart enough?" Xiaohe asked softly.
Gong Yu couldn't answer this doubt, she was silent for a while, and asked Lin Shouxi: "Do you want to continue reading?"
"Look." Lin Shouxi said.
Gong Yu continued to turn the pages of the book.
Flipping the booklet back, the handwriting on the yellowed paper was clear, and Lin Shouxi could even imagine the appearance of the old sect master when he wrote these words.
"The Daomen also picked up a baby. It is foreseeable that it will also be a peerless genius. The dead city will seriously damage the vitality of the Daomen. If it is out of balance, the vision passed down by the patriarch will also be impossible to realize. I am really confused, and my junior brother told me such a simple truth."
"I have never controlled his life and death. It is my destiny to pick him up and raise him."
"Tao Te Ching has a saying, if you know that the male guarding the female is the stream under heaven, let him guard the stream."
"There are too many people in the world who want to kill him. Since then, the Demon Sect has stopped recruiting disciples."
After that, the time span was very long, and what was recorded in the books were mostly trivial matters and his thoughts.
In the next few years, he raised Lin Shouxi to grow up. During this period, he tried to kill Lin Shouxi many times. It is very tempting to fight against fate.
Especially later, a sect master descended from the heaven of Dao Sect.
The head of this sect has brought despair and fear to the Demon Sect for several years. This once thriving sect, which almost became the leader of the martial arts, is irreversibly declining.
Watching the two sects ebb and flow but powerless, as the master of one sect, the pain and pressure he endured can be imagined. During this period, many older generations left the sect and lived in seclusion He took refuge in the mountains and forests ahead of time, and many disciples couldn't bear the lifeless days of cultivating, sneaked out of the black cliff and switched to other sects. He knew all about it, but he didn't intend to stop it.
Lin Shouxi only found out today that the seemingly amiable master had been hesitant to kill him for countless nights, and when he was seven years old, the master stood behind him and once committed the real murder. Xin, even hung his palms behind his neck, but when he turned his head, when the master looked at his pink and jade-carved face, he touched his head and said with emotion: "It's long It's so big."
'He is a child of the Demon Sect' the old Sect Master wrote in his notes.
Afterwards, the old sect master also recorded an unimportant incident. One day he heard Lin Shouxi chatting with his senior brothers and sisters. The senior brothers and sisters teased him and asked him, what do you want to do in the future.
"I want to revitalize the sect." Lin Shouxi said.
The brothers and sisters were overjoyed after hearing this, and asked: "Do you want to revitalize the magic gate in the future?"
"I want to revitalize the Hehuan Sect." The young Lin Shouxi replied ideally.
“…”
Seeing this, everyone inside and outside the book fell silent.
"Okay, I didn't expect our Mr. Lin to have such a big ambition since he was a child." Xiaohe's chuckle was a bit chilly, and she put her slender white hands on Lin Shouxi's shoulders, and followed suit. Rubbing his shoulders, he gently stroked his upper neck, his movements were as gentle as breathing.
Lin Shouxi's back was slightly cold, and he argued weakly: "Tongyan Wuji, this...is just a joke."
"Really?" Xiaohe climbed up, touched his ear, pinched it, and asked, "Aren't you going to revive the sect, why are you now worshiping under the Taoist sect instead?"
After asking this question, Xiaohe was also taken aback for a while, and then, she showed a look of sudden realization, squeezed Lin Shouxi's ears tightly, and said, "I understand, the way you revitalize the sect is to enter the Taoist sect." Inside! No wonder you met Sister Mu and seduced Sister Chu... Lin Shouxi, you really don’t forget your original intention."
"I..." Lin Shouxi was rendered speechless, and the old sect master's black and white evidence was solid, and he didn't know how to refute it, so he faltered for a while.
"Your tactic is insidious, but it's executed pretty well." Xiaohe said more and more vigorously, she squinted her eyes, and asked curiously: "You follow the clues like this, and go deep in layers, will you end up with it?" Even Master Master wants to..."
"Cough."
Gong Yu stood aside and coughed coldly.
Xiaohe's delicate body trembled, and she woke up. She knew that she had slipped her words, so she couldn't help covering her lips with her palm, and looked at Master cautiously. Although Gong Yu's true energy is lost, the remaining prestige is still there, and Xiaohe's heart tightens when the ice-cold Xiandi sees her, she cleverly argues: "I...I was also joking."
Gong Yu hummed lightly, and turned the notes to the next page.
On the next page, the span of the notes is directly three years:
"Recently, I was flustered and confused, and I couldn't sleep. In the Qianji Cave of Guigu Mountain, I saw my old friend Jing Yezi again. When I went, he asked Xiaodaotong to prepare a table of dishes. He said, he knew that I would come today. I also met another old friend of mine in Qianji Cave. He is the suzerain of Zhenzong. Jing Yezi said that he would die at the hands of the Taoist sect master. He didn't believe it. .”
"We had dinner together, and the lord Zhenzong said to me when he was parting, if one day the lord of the Taoist sect attacks the black cliff, I will not come to save you, I don't want to die in her hands. I didn't say anything , I didn’t want him to come, and under the general situation, it’s useless for anyone to come. I asked Jing Yezi if he had figured out anything important. Jing Yezi hesitated for a long time before coming to mine. In his ear, he lowered his voice and said: I have seen the destiny, although it is only the tip of the iceberg."
"He also said that he monopolizes the eight buckets of luck for the alchemists in the world. In the future, alchemists will never be able to reach his level."
"I didn't understand what he meant, so I asked him about the so-called destiny. I know that such alchemists usually like to use the excuse that the destiny cannot be revealed, and play riddles in a mysterious way, so I didn't have any hope for the answer at first, who knows Jing Yezi not only gave me the answer, but also gave me a very clear answer."
"He dipped his finger in the water and wrote two words on the stone table in front of me, E city."
"Er city... I thought this was referring to the dead city where the true energy originated, but Jing Yezi shook his head and said, according to the results of divination, this city should be in the extreme north, located in the ice and snow In the depths of the burial, the city is very old, it existed before human beings were born, and it is the entrance to a certain secret realm. As for what is inside, Jing Yezi does not know, he said, it is his The most dreamed place, because the ultimate of numerology is hidden there, but he can't go there, he is not a practitioner, and he can't survive that kind of ice and snow."
The subsequent notes span another two years.
"It's been a long time since I wrote...Jing Yezi is the messenger for the devil, and he bewitched me."
"I want to go to the north to find the city of calamity. I'm not sure whether I want to escape or really want to face the truth of the world. Remind me, say you're dying, you're dying for nothing."
"When I was young, I liked arithmetic, astronomy, music theory, poetry, wine, singing and dancing. I thought that as long as I rode my beloved horse and picked up my beloved woman, there would be no place in the world that I couldn't go to. Now, the vigor has really worn away unconsciously, and now I talk about putting the overall situation first, but the situation is getting more and more chaotic... I shouldn't die with regrets and become a dead bone in the grave."
"I'm going to E city."
The following content is very monotonous. It tells about the preparations he made when he left for Echeng. The preparations are very detailed and complete, taking into account various situations.
When I read this, not to mention Lin Shouxi and Xiaohe, even in Gongyu, there was a trace of nervousness in Tong Kongzhong.
They knew that no matter how detailed these preparations were, they were still useless, because he was going to an unknown place.
"Has he told you about this?" Gong Yu asked.
"Master never told me." Lin Shouxi shook his head.
In his memory, when he was twelve years old, the master did disappear for a while. At that time, the master said that he was going to retreat. Today he found out that he was going to the snowy city of the extreme north.
Gong Yu nodded slightly, and was about to turn to the next page, when suddenly, a strong night wind blew the window open.
The flame of the lamp flickered violently and then went out, and a thin wisp of white smoke floated up, chilling people's hearts.
Gong Yu closed the window, lit the candles again, and continued to turn the pages.
Then, they were all taken aback.
Many of the following pages have been crossed out with ink pens, and the strokes are so clean that not a single word can be read clearly.
"This..." Lin Shouxi frowned.
It stands to reason that this content should be the process of Master leaving for Echeng, which is a very important thing, but it has been completely wiped out now... There is something hidden in it that Master does not want us to know secret?
Keep turning, keep turning, the same is true for the following pages, until the last page, the handwriting on the notes became clear again:
"It's been the third month since I came back from E city. Every time I think about this experience, I'm not sure if it's true. Have I really got rid of my fate? Or, is it true? It's also my life... Forget it, it's meaningless to think about it. This black and purple line is getting deeper and deeper, and my lifespan is coming to an end. I won't live long."
"Shouxi has grown up, I believe that one day he will become the number one expert in the world, and I..."
"Damn it."
The notes come to an abrupt end.
…
"I wish I had seen this note sooner."
After a long time, Gong Yu extinguished the candle and said quietly.
She remembered the manuscript left by her mother, which recorded a place called Zhenguo, which was in the extreme north of another world. Interest, with her current body, can't be reached at all.
Gong Yu closed the notebook, saved it again, and then took the initiative to push Lin Shouxi out of this lifeless study, into the cool autumn night.
The waning moon hung high, the clouds were floating, and the temple towered into black shadows in the night. Except for the wheelchair running over the ground, there was no sound at all.
"I want to talk to Lin Shouxi alone."
Gong Yu stopped and said to Xiaohe.
Xiaohe has always respected his master, and has no objection or suspicion, so he hummed, turned around obediently, and went to clean up the house.
After Xiaohe left, Lin Shouxi asked respectfully: "What does the master want to say to the apprentice?"
Gong Yu slowly pushed the wooden wheelchair and asked softly: "Do you hate me?"
"..." Lin Shouxi didn't expect her to ask such a question. He thought for a while and replied, "I hated it before, but I don't hate it now."
Gong Yu lowered his head, looked at the severely injured boy in the wheelchair, and spoke softer, "Thinking about the past recently, I always feel that I did a lot of things wrong."
"Did you do many things wrong?" Lin Shouxi asked back.
"Well, I was too proud in the past."
Gong Yu nodded lightly, as if imitating his own edict. After a slight pause, a slightly ethereal voice floated from his lips: "I have been in this world for many years, but I have never really released this world." In my eyes, in the past, it was easy for me to rule the Taoist sect and even the world, and the purpose of my doing this was only to keep my practice uninterrupted. After I broke through the magic gate, I didn't touch anything here. , but I feel that these classics that mortals regard as treasures are of no use to me, so I missed this note. Even if the master of the Zhenzong beat me by half a point in Taiji, I didn't really take it seriously. Instead, I felt pity for him spending his whole life to slightly surpass me in a certain way... I have always been an arrogant person in my bones, even Vanity and arrogance, I obviously don't care about world affairs, but I want to prove my strength to the whole world, from childhood to adulthood."
The voice of the palace language was so heavy that it had never been in the past. Lin Shouxi didn't understand why the master said these things, and why he had to tell him alone. tensed up.
After saying this, Gong Yu remained silent.
In the autumn night, there is no mosquito interference, no fireflies flying, and no grass grows on the top of the black cliff, so there are no birds to inhabit, so it is extremely quiet.
The night is silent, Lin Shouxi didn't know how to respond to her words, so he had to choose to be silent with the night.
After a long time, Gong Yu's red lips moved slightly, and he took the initiative to ask: "Lin Shouxi, in your eyes... what kind of person is a teacher?"
"Well... When I didn't know Shizu before, I thought Shizu was a powerful and mysterious enemy. Later, I found Shizu is very beautiful and has an imperceptible softness." Lin Shouxi summarized seriously. He originally said " Qingao', but the master had criticized it before, so he didn't say it again.
"My appearance was given to me by my parents. Natural beauty is not something to be proud of. Similarly, my talent is also given by my parents. They are all great monks in the realm of human gods, and I am their only daughter. I came into being as the times require, I was born with gold and silver in my arms, but I didn’t think about making progress for a long time, if I hadn’t met a mentor who led me to the right track, I don’t know when I would be able to cheer up.” Gong Yu pushed a wheelchair and walked in the cool water like water. In the night, so to speak.
"Didn't the ancestor say before that you practiced deeply when you were young?" Lin Shouxi asked suspiciously.
"That's a lie. I was lazy and playful when I was young."
Gong Yu recalled the past and smiled self-deprecatingly. She walked in the night wind and said words that she would never say in the past: "But for a long time, I was confused by myself. I paranoidly thought that this I grasped everything with my hands, but is that really the case, it's not..."
"Master, why bother to belittle yourself? If you continue to say this, it's an overkill... Master should be tired, let's rest early." Lin Shouxi said softly.
"No." Gong Yu shook his head and continued, stubbornly and earnestly: "There are many people in the world who are naturally attracted to the strong, and they will imitate the daily life and travel or catchphrases of the strong, and take it as a fad, and feel that the strong do what they do. Everything in everything makes sense, even if I fail, I still feel as tragic as my ideals are disillusioned... I am also such a person, and what is different from them is that I admire myself. I admire my strength, and regard the perfection of the realm as I did a lot of wrong things for the sake of my mental state, but I didn't know it at the time... For example, Shi Jing and Chu Chu, they worshiped me as their teacher, respected me and loved me, but I didn't try my best to teach them well... I In fact, I like them, especially Chuchu. Every time I see her, I think of her mother when she was young, but the more so, the more I want to bully her... Heh, it's like being angry with her mother. "
Gong Yu smiled softly, she seemed to be reviewing herself, but also seemed to be watching with cold eyes, telling herself what she was unwilling to admit in the past.
"I often say that the seven Goddesses of Sin Ring in the Holy Soil Hall are sick, but... I seem to have some sickness too." Gong Yu pushed him to the edge of the cliff, looked at the night like the sea of ink, and said.
"It's extremely cold at high places. Master has been at the pinnacle of the world for a long time, and it's inevitable that he will catch the wind and cold. It's harmless." Lin Shouxi said comfortingly.
"You can talk." Gong Yu rubbed his hair, and said, "You might as well say that I fell into the mortal world and was not acclimatized."
When Lin Shouxi heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
Gong Yu let go of the hand holding the handle of the wheelchair and walked in front of him. She bent her legs slightly and bent down a little. Her long eyes met Lin Shouxi's, as if she was expecting some response. After a while, she said softly, "It would be great if my master was still alive."
Lin Shouxi was startled, and vaguely caught a trace of familiarity in her eyes, but this familiarity had no reason.
He straightened his expression, and said in a serious tone: "You already know your mistakes, so why put your hope of correcting them on others? Don't tell me you know these mistakes, and you still have to complain, 'It's all because Master left early, Didn't you teach me well'? Master... Don't ask outside~IndoMTL.com~ Gong Yu's eyes flickered, she smiled and said: "Well, you are right, then... you think I should How to do it? "
"Well..." Lin Shouxi thought for a while and said, "It's very simple. You write down everything you think is wrong on paper, cross out every time you correct something, and reflect on yourself every time you make a mistake again." /
"Okay." Gong Yu nodded with a smile, his words were actually a bit cute.
The night is getting darker.
She pushed Lin Shouxi back to his original room.
Knocking on the door, Xiaohe carried him back.
After Lin Shouxi left, she faced the empty moonlight alone, and turned back into that arrogant, pure and beautiful Taoist fairy who didn't eat the fireworks of the world.
It's just that when looking at Lin Shouxi's wing, there will always be a shallow stream of light flowing through the bottom of his eyes.
Standing gracefully in the night, she smiled and said to herself, "Yes, I blame Master for leaving early and not teaching Xiaoyu well."
