The waterside pavilion is quiet and elegant. The sixteen-year-old Su Miaoyin returned to the Youtan Jingzong. She stood in front of a courtyard and let the morning breeze carry the hazy water vapor to blow against her face, washing away the dust and dust from her body.

What still cannot be washed away is the dry, cold and cold weather brought from the Kunlun Mountains.

"I need to get some sunshine." Su Miaoyin thought.

At this time, a clear voice came to my ears. "Junior Sister Su, are you back?"

A young girl of the same age as her jumped over. This girl had a round face and big eyes. She was her senior sister Zhou Miaojie, who studied in the same school as her. Zhou Miaojie took her hand and said affectionately: "When did you come here?"

You missed me so much that I almost got sick from boredom while you were in Kunlun."

Su Miaoyin said: "I just came here and am waiting for the master to summon me."

"Master studied medical books very late last night and just fell asleep. He probably won't wake up for a while. Please tell me first, what fun things are there in this trip to the Vientiane Heavenly Palace?" Zhou Miaojie lowered her voice, but still couldn't suppress it.

There was excitement in his words, and his big, smart eyes were full of curiosity.

At this time, I heard a soft yet majestic voice coming from the room in the courtyard, "Morning bells and evening drums, morning and evening classes, we practitioners must not forget them in one day, Miaojie, where are you? The morning classes are about to begin, and we have to

Are you having fun here?"

Zhou Miaojie immediately fell silent, stuck out her tongue, whispered "I'll see you later", then shrunk and walked away quickly.

"Miaoyin, come in." The voice said again.

When Su Miaoyin entered the house according to the sound, he felt his whole body warm, and the coldness accumulated in his bones melted away like melting snow.

She saw her sun.

Inside the room, there was a woman with her hair pulled up. Although she looked a little tired, her appearance was extremely beautiful. But anyone who saw her would not be able to help but ignore the beauty on the outside and be deeply attracted by her otherworldly temperament.

Friendly, warm, peaceful and tranquil, like an elder sister, like a loving mother, and like the rising sun. It warms all things and illuminates all living beings.

The woman has a name that matches her temperament - Tiannu Xi.

She is a contemporary goddess, the master of Su Miaoyin, and the sun in her heart.

The goddess Xi tied up her hair and bent down to make the bed, just like a housewife, doing it herself, and said: "This time I teach you to visit the Wanxiang Celestial Palace and get to know people of the same age. What is the result? Look at who among the next generation in the Wanxiang Celestial Palace.

Can you be the person who carries the cauldron?"

Su Miaoyin was not surprised by Tiannu Xi's behavior, so she only said: "Kunlun Mountain deserves to be the source of Taoism. The disciples of Wanxiang Tiangong are all outstanding, especially Li Wuqi, who has profound cultivation, is calm and capable, and can be regarded as a pillar of the future generations. If nothing unexpected happens,

, the next palace master of the Vientiane Heavenly Palace will fall on him."

"If there is no accident?" Tiannv Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, sensing the implication, "Then do you think there will be an accident?"

Su Miaoyin carefully considered her words, and then said slowly: "I made a new disciple in the Wanxiang Palace. In the eyes of other people in the Wanxiang Palace, he does not practice Taoism. He watches the wind and clouds all day long. He behaves weirdly and has whimsical ideas. Everyone says he is

He is a fool who has a good skin..."

"Then what do you think?"

Su Miaoyin shook her head gently, "The disciple can't see through it, and maybe no one in the world can see through him, but the disciple feels that sometimes no one can understand a person, and the world can't tolerate it, maybe it's just because of the person - unparalleled in the world.

!”

Tiannu Xi chuckled lightly and praised, "Wushuang in the world, ha, this evaluation is worthy of the title of Wei Wushuang."

"Master, do you know his name?" Su Miaoyin was slightly surprised. She didn't directly mention Wei Wushuang's name just now.

"Soon everyone in the world will know his name." Tiannv Xi explained: "You came back too late and did not receive the latest news from Kunlun Mountain. In the sect competition, Wei Wushuang, who has only been in the industry for more than half a year, has defeated Li Wuqi.

, occupying the top spot in the Heavenly Palace of Vientiane."

Su Miaoyin was stunned. She was surprised, but not as surprised as she thought. It seemed that in her subconscious mind, she felt that it was only natural that the young man could do this. But no matter what, she still felt sincerely for the new friend she made.

of joy.

But soon, this joy was dissipated. I heard the goddess Xi said: "The eye is as bright as a torch, and you can identify people and talents. You can have such knowledge. I am very pleased to be my teacher, and I can leave with peace of mind."

"Leave? I just came back and the master is leaving again?" Su Miaoyin blurted out, losing the calmness of her eloquent conversation just now.

Xi, the goddess of heaven, nodded lightly and said: "As a goddess of heaven, I should also help the world. There is nothing important in the sect right now. It's time for me to join the world and walk. I will do good deeds and medicine along the way, rectify the injustices in the world, and save the people in the world who need to be saved.

.”

Su Miaoyin asked: "When will you leave?"

The goddess Xi said: "Now, after finishing the morning lessons, we are going to set off."

"In such a hurry, I still want to talk to you more. You only love the common people in the world, but you don't love your disciples?" Su Miaoyin pursed her lips, feeling unhappy. Only then did Tiannv Xi remember that no matter what,

Precocious and wise, Su Miaoyin is still only a sixteen-year-old girl after all.

Tiannu Xi was so angry and funny that she wanted to slap her on the head and said, "You are heartless. Master, doesn't he always love you?"

"Can't you love me more? More love than you have for all the people in the world..." Su Miaoyin drew her neck back, trying to avoid Tiannu Xi's "brain collapse", but she still insisted on fighting unwillingly.

"No way." The goddess Xi put her smooth finger on Su Miaoyin's forehead, but she just gently flexed her finger and scratched the bridge of her nose, "Buddha said that all living beings are equal."

After saying that, Tiannu Xi picked up the medical box and left through the door. From the corner of her eye, Su Miaoyin's eyes were sparkling, as if she was lowering her head and weeping.

But she didn't stop. Parting was a necessity for growth. She believed that Su Miaoyin was a smart child and could always adapt.

But what she didn't expect was that in the time to come, Su Miaoyin would grow far beyond her imagination.

-=

"Buddha was wrong, all living beings are never equal." Seventeen-year-old Su Miaoyin stood in front of the goddess Xi. She stood as dignified as a crane without flinching.

This is another farewell. There is a grand ceremony in the Utanjing Sect, which requires the participation of Tiannu Xi, so Tiannu Xi returns. After the ceremony, Tiannu Xi only stays for half a month before leaving again.

Only this time, Su Miaoyin blocked her way and refused to let her leave.

"Oh?" After hearing Su Miaoyin's slanderous words about the Buddha, Tiannv Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for her follow-up.

Su Miaoyin said: "Master saves thousands of people and saves the world. Every time he saves one person, he bears the weight of another person's life. Accumulated in the past life, he has already carried the lives of ten thousand people. One person is related to the safety of the world. How can it be called equality? Master has accepted this

Mountains are so important that it is appropriate to sit in the Utanjing Sect and consolidate people's hearts. If you act alone, it will be like throwing mountains into rivers and lakes. There are no waves in the rivers and lakes, but there will be an uproar because of you."

Tiannu Xi shook her head and said: "That's because the responsibilities are different, it doesn't mean there is a difference between high and low. You can regard me as more important than others because of the difference between closeness and distance, but I can't consider myself superior to others. Moreover, the weight of mountains is made of accumulated sand. Save

The fate of all peoples also starts from saving the one person in front of me. If I have a contemptuous heart and cannot treat each other as equals, how can you and I be the masters and disciples we are today?"

Su Miaoyin was silent. In fact, few people knew that she was originally a beggar girl who was displaced due to the flooding of the Yellow River. If the goddess Xi had not brought her back to the Utanjing Sect to be raised, then being reduced to a clay kiln might have been her best destination.

.

Tiannu Xi is her sun, but the sun is never exclusive to her, but spreads its light to all things without discrimination. She was saved because of Tiannu Xi’s equality. How can we stop her from imposing this equality on others?

?

But Su Miaoyin still said stubbornly: "Then at least make an agreement. Outside the sect, there are thousands of people waiting for your salvation. Within the sect, there are also thousands of disciples waiting for your teachings. Counting from the time when the master saved me, you can save me."

After reaching ten thousand people, we can return to our sect with peace of mind to teach us. Otherwise, if we don’t teach, we will only save half of the people.”

Tiannu Xi laughed because of her almost deceitful logic, but she still had some sense in the rogue, so she nodded and said: "That's okay, but why do we start counting from the time I saved you?"

"Because I want to be the first person saved by the master." Su Miaoyin defended her last persistence, and then watched Tiannu Xi leave again.

Her eyes were firm and clear. No one expected that in a short time, those bright eyes would turn into a dark abyss that even the brilliance of the goddess Xi could not shine into.

"Dong dong dong!" In the dark of the night, there was a knock on the door, and it was the goddess Xi who returned again calling the door softly.

"Miaoyin, we just came back, and I heard that you locked yourself in a dark room for more than ten days. Did something happen?" Tiannu Xi received no response, and said softly: "Are you asleep?"

After a while, a faint voice came, "I'm not asleep, master, please come in."

When Tiannu Xi pushed the door open, she saw that there were no lights inside, it was pitch black, and nothing could be seen. However, Tiannu Xi still recognized the location of Su Miaoyin at once.

Because Su Miaoyin's eyes are darker than black.

She sat in the corner holding her knees, her face was tired and haggard, but her eyes were like black holes, bottomless, with unpredictable joys and sorrows, swallowing up the darkness around her.

Tiannu Xi was secretly startled and said: "Miaoyin, have you been sitting like this without lighting a lamp?"

Su Miaoyin raised her eyes and said: "I'm fine, I just want to adapt to the darkness... When did the master come back? And when do you plan to leave?"

"I just came back and will be leaving in seven days. This time I have been delayed for a long time. Baihe Village in northern Shaanxi suffered a disaster the year before last. The local big families took the opportunity to invade and annex the land. The people had no work, so they went up to the mountains to become bandits. It happened that the big family got sick. I

I applied medicine to him, bought grain seeds, and reclaimed a piece of wasteland with the people. If I live a tight life this year, there should be a good harvest next year." The goddess stretched out her hand to caress Su Miaoyin, and her originally smooth palms were already wet.

A feeling of roughness due to clearing wasteland and cultivating fields. "But I have not forgotten the agreement I made with you. There are 305 people in the whole village, and only 233 people survived the winter. Even if I saved two people this time,

One hundred and thirty-three."

"How many people are there in that big family?" Su Miaoyin asked.

"There are seventeen people in total, including the servants and servants, forty-three people," said the goddess Xi.

"Add these forty-three people. If the people become bandits, the first people to be attacked will be the whole family of the big family. They will kill the big family and steal the grain, but they will lose their good health and dare not farm. They will either sit back and eat nothing, or they will go to work."

Loot more villages, no matter what, being annihilated by the officers and soldiers is the final outcome, and everyone will die in the end. It was you who saved these people from death." Su Miaoyin said calmly, her eyes were dull, and even her voice seemed hollow.

"But this is not a way to save more people. Master, why don't you kill seventeen members of a large family, scatter their wealth, and divide their real estate, so that the people can go back to farming without having to reclaim the wasteland, and there will be no one, because

He died without surviving the winter of food shortage."

The goddess Xi was horrified and said: "Miaoyin, what did you go through when the master was away?"

"I went to Shenzhou Pavilion and saw the history of the sect that was shrouded in darkness and never saw the light of day. I also learned, master, what you, as a goddess, have to bear..." Su Miaoyin looked at Xi, a goddess, and said with a sad smile:
