Why do people feel sad?
To be sad is to be sad.The spring breeze saddens Baicheng, and the hero saddens the beauty.The relationship is difficult, and the relationship between life and death is even more difficult.Jing Jiu was naturally sad not because of cowardice, nor because he saw that person and thought of a lot of past events, at least not entirely.That person is indeed special to him, but after all, it is the person himself, if he can kill with a sword, he will naturally kill him."
We will eventually lose all contact with the world, and we will be left with loneliness itself."
Jing Jiu touched the cat in his arms, looked at the stars in the night sky, felt the coldness of the cosmic front, and said to Zhao Layue.Zhao Layue didn't speak, because she was very sad at this time, just like when she was in Meihui, she always felt that he was slowly leaving this world.Living in the world, there will always be all kinds of accidents, changes of mind, and finally death that cannot be escaped.Even if a cultivator can live forever, or even immortality, it can't change it, but it can only make them see all parting more clearly.The avenue must be ruthless, or anyone will eventually go crazy.Even if Jing Jiu had already crossed this pass, in the process of pursuing the Great Dao, loneliness would still emerge from time to time.This is where all the sadness, the sadness, the weakness and the anger come from.That's not a bad thing.Just as the wax from the bark of a cut tree becomes the most precious gem, solitude can help the practitioner find peace again, and the heart of the Dao can be at peace again.Many cultivators will deliberately seek such an experience in order to gain realization, and this is what the descendants of Guocheng Temple mean by the descendants of the red dust.Of course, this requires you to have the ability to overcome it, to absorb it, which often takes a lot of pain at the cost and takes a long time."
That's it."
Jing Jiu said.The sky is still full of stars.Heaven and earth remain.He still is.Decades back, tonight for the first time he showed some ordinary emotion, and that was it.Zhao Layue looked at him, her eyes full of admiration.Ah Da looked at him with a look of awe in his eyes.He was able to let go in such a short period of time because he had a higher goal.He knew very well that loneliness was the price he had to bear.………… It doesn't matter if you are the heart or the luggage, whether you have weight or not, Jing Jiu said that putting it down is really putting it down.He stopped thinking about the word loneliness, stopped being sad, stopped being angry, and calmly began to deduce calculations.- Just like Ah Da said, he was not such a person before, so why is he so persistent all these years, he has traveled to so many places, and thought of so many ways to find peace?
It may have been influenced by the wisp of divine consciousness left behind by the Heavenly Neighbor, but there was a simpler reason, and that was that he needed an answer.In the late spring and early summer of last year, after reading so many books in Shiyue Peak and the Mirror Sect, I came to the conclusion that there was a problem with the Vanishing Array from the beginning, which meant that the person didn't want him to ascend from the beginning.So he needed that answer even more.More than 300 years ago, the Guocheng Temple Incident, the previous generation of the god emperor was seriously injured by the Taiping Zhenren, only lived for a few years before dying, the highest level of the temple The old monk was killed on the spot, and was forced to be reincarnated as the son of the mountain demon.Then he took Liu Ci and Yuan Qi Whale to launch that rebellion.If so, there was a good reason for the man to harm him, but why did he do it before?
And if that person wanted to rule the Chaotian Continent again and practice that crazy and evil idea, wouldn't it be the best thing to fly away by himself?
Yes, the question that Jing Jiu wanted to ask was that simple.Why are you doing this?
This question really sounds like a common question in the third rate, like another very classic question, why not love?
Naturally, it's not because you've become ugly, it's just that you're tired of you, so you're getting uglier and uglier in your eyes.But the rules of the operation of all things are not as unreasonable as the love of men and women, there must be a cause for a result, and there must be a reason for everything.This question is also suitable for the white-edged ancestors of the Zhongzhou faction.No matter what kind of ambition the Zhongzhou faction had, Jingyang Feisheng and leaving should be the thing they were most willing to see, why would the White Blade sneak attack him, thus bringing so many variables?
This question has been bothering Jing Jiu, and it was not until he heard the three last words of the monk in Pinggu Temple that he vaguely understood something.Now that the man had begun to feather, or die, or become another being, it was difficult for him to ask for an answer, so he had to look for it himself.How can I find out?
He needed a rock from his mountain or a mirror in which he could see himself.The experience of being successfully ascensed and then being knocked into the dust is extremely rare in the history of the spiritual world.There are indeed many immortals in the legends and stories of Chaotian Continent, but most of them are only false, and only one person may be true.After Nan Tending was expelled from Aoyama, it is said that he met the former Kensen Cave Mansion on an island in the sea, and obtained the inheritance, achieving the prestige of the ancestor of Kirishima.That sea is the West Sea, and interestingly, that island is called Falling Immortal Island.………… Five years ago, Liu Ci seriously injured the Sword God of the West Sea with a sword and killed Nan Chao.Wherever the sword light reached, the disciples of the Western Sea Sword Sect suffered heavy casualties, and the Flying Whale, a divine beast of the Zhen Sect, also turned into countless huge lumps of flesh and sank to the deep bottom of the sea.The flying whales are so large that even after such a long time, they are still not eaten clean by the small fish on the bottom of the sea, and the rotting flesh emits an unpleasant smell, and with those tiny bubbles come to the surface of the sea, filling the air.Those smells were really a little pungent, even harsh, and they couldn't be completely dispelled by using the formation, and the Bihu Peak disciples stationed in the West Sea Islands were a little miserable.Cheng Youtian, the lord of Bihu Peak, participated in the head meeting, as well as last year's Battle of Lengshan, and now he has returned to the West Sea.He knew very well the feelings of the elders and disciples, although the sea in front of him was magnificent, the taste was far worse than the lake of Bihu Peak, and although the spiritual veins here were good, where could they reach the green mountains?
He sighed, wondering when the young man was going to summon his people back.Just as he was thinking about this, a bright red sword light suddenly appeared in the sky, he was slightly stunned, and hurriedly led his disciples out to greet him.What he didn't expect was that the young head of the real person actually came."
In four years, let Shiyue Peak come over for you."
Without waiting for Cheng Yutian to speak, Jing Jiu said directly.Four years is not too long for a cultivator, and it is not good to ask for anything more.………… According to Jing Jiu's request, Cheng Youtian left.Zhao Layue glanced at him and asked, "Why four years?"
”This period of time cannot be said casually by Jing Jiu, it must have a deep meaning.Jing Jiu didn't explain, and said to Ah Da, "Look for it." ”Nan Chao was expelled from Qingshan, and the former Xianjian Cave Mansion he met was said to be on this island.After the Qingshan Sect obtained the West Sea, it had already searched carefully many times, but found nothing.The legendary Sword Immortal Secret Book should have been taken away by the Sword God of the West Sea, but why is there no other trace here?
Jing Jiu was not looking for that secret book, but something else.It didn't take long for a white light to return to the stone window like a giant painting.Ah Da shook his head, and found nothing.I couldn't even find any trace of a Tongtian Realm town guard, could it be that the legend was just a legend, and the story of that previous generation of sword immortals was fake?
Zhao Layue said: "If you are looking for some ordinary traces, maybe they are in ordinary places. ”They went to Shaoming Island.The first half of this island was cut off by the Sword God of the West Sea, and those tunnels and array eyes that were as dense as spider webs were like irregular combinations of dots and lines, exposed in people's sight.Looking at the picture in front of him, Jing Jiu naturally remembered the heavenly tribulation caused by the immortal urn, remembered Liu Ci, and was silent for a while, and then remembered Tong Yan.Tong Yan still hasn't come back in the underworld, and he doesn't know what happened.There was a strong wind in the library, and all the books were suspended in the air, and they were rattled by the wind, as if they were being turned by countless invisible hands.Jing Jiu stood in this sea of books, and after reading it for a moment, he reached out and took down the other.It was a very ordinary Sword Immortal Record, which was all about the imagination and yearning of mortals for the cultivation world, and it was basically some absurd words, not worth mentioning.But on one page of that book, someone left a sentence."
I'm also immortal, I'm crazy."
From those sword-like strokes and breath, Jing Jiu judged that it should be Nan Chao's handwriting.Zhao Layue glanced at him and said, "Are you looking for a book?"
”Jing Jiu said: "Find all the old books in Haizhou City." ”Haizhou has been established for more than 10,000 years, whether it is the state school or the family and the rich businessman's house, there are a lot of books, only the state chronicles do not know how many.It is impossible to collect all these books in a short period of time.But Xihai is already Qingshan's territory, and they can't say three impossible words to the head of Qingshan.It only took three days for Cheng Youtian to take the elders and disciples of Bihu Peak back to Shaoming Island with a whole book of swords, and stopped on the section that was as smooth as cutting a cake.No matter how well those old books were kept, they didn't taste very good, mixed with the smell of carrion overflowing from the bottom of the sea, which made Ah Da sneeze several times in a row.Jing Jiu didn't care about this, he stretched out his hand to bring the breeze, turned the pages, and began to read these tens of thousands of books at the same time.It didn't take long for him to find the person he was looking for in the county chronicles of a certain Haizhou county and a miscellaneous exam.More than 3,000 years ago, a middle-aged madman suddenly appeared in that county seat.The middle-aged madman would wake up every day and run to the beach, saying that his clothes were a little ill-fitting, that he wanted to be thinner, and that he wanted to be stronger, so that he would not suffer when he quarreled with others.When he was out of breath and sweating profusely, he would go to a tavern on the edge of the county seat to have a drink.The middle-aged madman's favorite food is tuna, and he drinks the rice wine of Penglai Island, and the amount of raw wine is very poor, and a few glasses are too much.Then he would drunkenly repeat the same sentence."
Don't go out.""
Don't go out!"
………… If this is the case, this middle-aged madman is definitely not eligible to be recorded in the county records.The problem was that one day he drank a little too much and said a few more words.That day, he grabbed the shopkeeper's hand, his eyes were red, and he kept chattering: "It's on fire outside, don't go out!"
”The shopkeeper was familiar with him, and said with a smile: "In that case, why don't you go out and put out the fire quickly?"
”The middle-aged madman said, "How can the fire be extinguished?
If we stay here, we will live. ”The shopkeeper said, "What if the fire burns down the house?"
”The middle-aged madman looked at the sky, with a look of joy in his eyes, and said, "Fortunately, the walls of our house are made of iron, which is thick enough, and the fire can't burn in." ”The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Is there an iron wall in the sky?"
”The middle-aged madman said seriously: "This sky is an iron cover." ”Hearing this, the diners in the tavern all laughed, and the smell of joy filled the air.The middle-aged madman was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Since you have leaked the secret, let's do something." ”With that, he walked to the end of the long street in one step, and then jumped into the sky, never seen in the small county again.The people in the tavern were shocked to see this scene with their own eyes, and they were speechless.That same night, the largest cultivation sect in Haizhou City was wiped out.Not a single one died, but the cultivation of all the disciples of that sect was abolished, and the cultivation exercises were burned to the ground.A few days later, a small sect in the West Sea suffered the same fate.A few days later, the national teacher of the Jiaoren Kingdom, who was most likely to see through the way of the Heavenly Demon, was suddenly found dead on a shoal.The diners in the tavern that day still remembered the picture of the middle-aged madman walking to the other side of the long street and jumping into the sky, and the ridiculous things he said, naturally associated these things with him.The question is, where would anyone believe the words of these people?
It's just that as some gossip, it left a small mark on the county chronicle.............
"I have an impression of these things. ”Ah Da walked slowly to Jing Jiu's side, jumped onto his shoulder, looked at the county chronicle, and was silent for a while, "At that time, there were many tragedies in the West Sea, and the real person in charge was going to see where the evil demon was so arrogant, but the person suddenly disappeared, and the real person in charge thought that it was an excuse for those strong sects in the north to slaughter the small faction, so he didn't dig deeper. ”Now it seems that the middle-aged madman should be the rumored former generation of sword immortals, who somehow played in the world.Suddenly, he thought about destroying the sect, but he stopped inexplicably.He later lived in seclusion on the island of Falling Immortals, and never appeared again, leaving only a book of kendo secrets, which created the scenery of Nan Trend and Kirishima in the same vein.Jing Jiu opened the Sword Immortal Record again, and this time those seemingly absurd words took on other meanings.There are two sentences on the page where Nan Chao left his handwriting, which should be the self-evaluation of the middle-aged madman."
Alone in heaven, I am alone.""
I am alone in the world."………… (I only remembered when I saw the smiling circle of friends, ten years ago today, the story of the guest appeared in this world.)I don't think it's been long, it's been ten years.Ten years of life and death, I didn't understand it before, but now I probably understand.Looking back at the presumptuous, youthful and vigorous ten years ago, and then thinking about the chapter that I stayed up late last night to write, I really have mixed feelings.As a human being, you don't have to feel sorry, but I'm really sorry for many people, including myself, and everyone wants a better life in the future. ）()
