The twenty-fourth episode, the first chapter, has no regrets
.
Gui Li was so anxious that he swept away with all his strength. He walked on the current path. In an instant, all the flowers, plants and trees on both sides of the road fell to him, like a gap in the sea water. The wind that was facing him blew his face because he was going too fast.
There was a dull pain, but he didn't care at all.
At this moment, in his heart, there was only the figure of Suru in the bamboo forest behind the mountain.
Dahuang's barking was still in his ears, extremely manic. Gui Li's figure suddenly rose into the sky from the stone steps at the foot of the mountain, making a sharp sound that broke through the air, and rushed up the stone steps. The person was still in the air, Gui Li's heart
But he got a sudden chill, could hardly control himself, and almost fell off.
On the ground, there were two caves that were more than one person long and wide. There were two piles of soil beside them. Seeing that the soil was moist, it must have been dug by Suru just now. When I thought of these two caves,
Gui Li's face turned pale and his scalp was numb. However, Tian Buyi's body was still lying quietly in the same place and did not move. But at this moment, Suru, whom Gui Li was most worried about, threw herself on Tian Buyi's chest, motionless.
.
Next to him, Da Huang was barking loudly and loudly at Suru.
Gui Li's heart sank. Looking at the slender figure that was in front of him not long ago, he felt timid that he didn't dare to face it or get close. At this time, on the stone steps behind him, he slowly appeared.
Lu Xueqi, who looked pale, stood there from a distance, silently staring at all this.
Gui Li suppressed his frantic heartbeat and called out softly: "Master's Wife?"
Suru's body remained motionless, without any response.
Gui Li moved forward slowly, each step seemed very strenuous, and the barking of Dahuang was still heard. Finally, he got close to Suru's body and whispered in a low voice: "Master's wife... don't be scared.
I……"
A slightly trembling hand touched Suru's shoulder. Gui Li gritted his teeth and used force to turn Suru's body over: an unexpected face with a slight smile appeared in front of his eyes.
Suru smiled, and there seemed to be a trace of relief at the corner of her mouth, maybe she was with her husband. Zhu Xian Mi Wo Zhu Xian Xiaoying's hand was still warm from hitting her body, and her expression was still quiet and dignified, but she was no longer angry.
Rhubarb's bark is still barking wildly, but his voice has gradually become hoarse!
Gui Li's legs softened and he sat on the ground. For a moment, his mind went blank.
"Master's wife has also gone..."
This was the only cry in his mind, echoing endlessly in his heart.
The next day, the other branches of the Qingyun Sect received the bad news from the Dazhu Peak branch. The leader Tian Buyi and his wife Suru both passed away.
Tian Buyi and his wife had a very important position in the Qingyun Sect and were always respected by people. This bad news shocked everyone in the Qingyun Sect in an instant. Countless fellow sect members came to Dazhu Peak to pay their respects. Tian Linger, who hurried back from Longshou Peak, cried in front of his parents.
He became a tearful person. When the other elders of various sects thought about their old friendship, although they were all accomplished monks, many of them shed tears, especially Master Shuiyue, the first of Xiaozhu Peak, who had always been the best with Suru.
sad.
In this solemn and sad atmosphere, there are still some abnormal clues. Due to the high status of Tian Buyi and his wife, all the other people are present, except in Changmen Tongtian Peak, although the elders of the previous generation are here.
Quite a few, but the master of one sect, Master Qingyun, Master Daoxuan, was nowhere to be seen. This inevitably showed that Tongtian Peak looked down upon the Dazhu Peak lineage.
Song Daren and other Dazhufeng disciples all wore filial piety and had sad faces. They were all respectful when picking up and dropping off their fellow disciples. However, when they saw Xiao Yicai and other eldest disciples, their faces were angry and their words were much colder.
Xiao Yicai and others felt guilty and couldn't say anything. Apart from smiling bitterly, they had no choice but to stand aside and keep silent.
The incense is lingering and the cries are endless. This sadness, which is probably the sadness for the passing of the old friend, lingers on the top of the originally beautiful and quiet Dazhu Peak. People live for a lifetime, but they don’t know whether they really have souls after death. If so,
If this is the case, then my old friend is watching all this in the dark, and I wonder what he would think?
But I guess Na Tian Buyi won’t look sad!
A figure floated down from the direction of Qingyun Mountain, looking a little dazed. At noon, he entered Heyang City alone.
People are coming and going on the street. Although it is not as lively as in the past, it can be seen that the city is slowly regaining its vitality. Some people have died in the catastrophe, some have survived, and new children have grown up. Generation after generation,
Everlasting life.
Gui Li stood on the street, silently looking at the crowds on the street. Strange people passed by him, like a never-ending wave. He was in a sea of people, and everyone around him was exactly the same as him.
They are born, old, sick, and die, living quietly in reincarnation.
But why do people want to live?
Gui Li suddenly thought this.
Both his master and his wife passed away, in front of him. After the pain in his heart and lungs, all he had left was numbness and exhaustion.
In this life, he seemed to feel that he was walking on a road that was much longer than others, and there was no end in sight for this road.
He walked numbly, and there were sounds coming from outside, such as hawking and shouting. Even if he wanted to, he could hear clearly the voice of a woman teaching a child across the street.
All of this, he felt so far away from himself. In a daze, he felt that he was no longer like this human being.
Unknowingly, he came to a place, looked up, and saw the familiar restaurant sign. Deep in his heart, something suddenly moved, and he couldn't help but walk in.
There were very few customers in the restaurant, and it was obvious that the business here had not yet recovered from the catastrophe. The waiter came over and asked with a smile: "Sir, do you want to eat or drink?"
Gui Li was silent for a moment, but was speechless for a moment. After coming down from Qingyun Mountain, he was in a daze and seemed to be unable to concentrate on anything. The feeling, with a bit of despair, was just like what he had witnessed ten years ago.
Baguio blocked the sword for him. However, ten years later, he seemed to be less crazy and more tired.
"My guest, my guest?"
The waiter's slightly raised voice woke up Gui Li. He shook his head numbly and walked to a secluded spot to sit down.
The waiter came over, still smiling, and said, "Sir, what do you want to eat?"
"Here..." he said slowly, and suddenly something flashed from somewhere deep in his memory, "Do you have any 'Steamed Sleeping Fish' here?"
The waiter was startled for a moment, then laughed and said: "Sir, could it be that you were a regular customer of our Shanhaiyuan before? This steamed fish was our original signature dish, but you can't eat it now."
Gui Li was startled for a moment and said, "Why is this?"
The waiter shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's not the beast monsters that killed Thousand Swords that were to blame. When those beast monsters occupied this place, everyone within a radius of hundreds of miles suffered. Even the fish in the river outside the city...
It was also emptied out in one roll. To this day, it is rare to see even a fish fry, not to mention a fish that can be used for cooking."
Gui Liruo felt lost, and his face became a little gloomier for some reason. The waiter sighed for a long time before he remembered the business and asked quickly: "Sir, why don't you order some other dishes?"
Gui Li looked away blankly and said casually: "Forget it, let's get some food and drinks."
The waiter nodded, turned and left. Halfway through, three more people came in at the door. The waiter was surprised, wondering if the business had improved today, and hurriedly went to greet them. Unexpectedly, the three people were just there.
After looking around the store, he suddenly saw Gui Li, and one of them called out, with a hint of surprise in his voice.
Gui Li heard a strange voice, and the voice sounded somewhat familiar. He turned around and was startled. It is said that we would never meet again at the end of the world. The three people standing over there were none other than Zhou Xian, Xiao Huan and Wild Dog.
Of the three, the one who shouted was Zhou Xian.
Somehow, seeing these three people, Gui Li suddenly felt a sense of intimacy in his heart for no reason. Although they were not close friends, his state of mind at the moment was really light-hearted.
I saw the stunned look on Immortal Yiyi's face disappear in an instant, and then he walked over quickly with a smile on his face. The "Immortal Guidance" curtain hanging on a bamboo pole in his hand fluttered in the wind, and he came to Gui Li and laughed.
: "It's really unexpected that we meet here again."
A faint smile appeared on Gui Li's lips. Although it disappeared in an instant, he still said: "Senior, please sit down."
Zhou Yixian nodded and sat down politely. The waiter stood aside and asked with a smile: "Are you all together?"
Zhou Yixian rolled his eyes at him and said, "Nonsense, can we sit together if we are not together?"
The waiter nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, please take a seat. I'll prepare the food and drinks. I'll be back soon."
Zhou Yixian couldn't stop laughing, but he pulled the waiter over and casually ordered seven or eight more dishes and three or four bottles of fine wine. The waiter nodded without hesitation and hurriedly went to prepare the dishes.
Xiaohuan's face on the side was not as happy as her grandfather's. On the contrary, her face looked dark and ugly. Especially when she saw Zhou Yixian later asking the waiter to order food and ask for wine, she looked even more...
She was gloomy and wanted to speak several times, but she still endured it. After the waiter left, she couldn't help but sneered and said: "Grandpa, you ordered so many dishes. Could it be that you saw your savior here and wanted to treat him well?"
Do you want to repay others with a treat?"
Zhou Yixian's face darkened and he said angrily: "Xiaohuan, what nonsense are you talking about? What kind of friendship do we have with this brother Gui Li? How can we compare it with these drinks and food?" As he said that, he turned back to Gui Li.
He smiled sharply, then sighed, shook his head and said: "Look at this Heyang City. After the catastrophe, people's hearts are not as old as before, and no one is willing to read fortune tellers. The world is so difficult..."
Xiao Huan's expression changed, she glanced at Gui Li, and then gave Zhou Xian a hard look, her face turned slightly red. Gui Li didn't seem to feel anything, and just said lightly: "Yeah, don't worry, I was blinded back then.
You have taken care of me for many days, and this time I am asking you to thank me." Zhuxian Miwo Zhuxian Xiaoying's face immediately turned red when she made a small ring with her hands, but Yiyixian was greatly pleased, nodded and smiled and said: "Not bad, not bad, little boy!
teach!"
Wild Dog Taoist looked at Xiao Huan and then at Gui Li, but stopped talking.
At this time, the waiter brought several plates of cold dishes and two jugs of wine. Zhou Yixian took the wine jug politely and filled it up for everyone present. He raised his glass and said, "We are all wandering people.
It is a rare fate to meet here, so I drank this."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, and then shook his head slightly. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with the taste of the wine. Gui Li looked at him and moved the corners of his mouth. He didn't know if he was smiling, but on his face
His muscles looked so stiff that even if he smiled, he wouldn't be able to show it. He slowly picked up the wine glass and put it to his lips. Just a moment later, he suddenly sighed, with a bit of helplessness and pain, as if he was holding something in his hand.
It turned out to be the most bitter thing, and I couldn't drink it, so I slowly put it back on the table.
At this time, Xiaohuan, who was sitting next to Yiyi Xian, couldn't help it anymore and stabbed Yiyi Xian and said: "It's a rare fate. I don't know who saw someone else's figure from a distance on the street and yelled.
I caught up and planned to eat for free!"
Zhou Xian's face did not change color, he only rolled his eyes at Xiao Huan and said: "Tong Yan Wu Ji, Tong Yan Wu Ji!"
Gui Li didn't seem to take Xiao Huan's words to heart. He looked as if he had been absent-minded and thinking about something. Xiao Huan had known him for many years, but this was the first time he saw Gui Li look like this. He didn't feel a little worried.
He got up and couldn't help but ask Gui Li: "What's wrong with you? What's the matter?"
Gui Li was silent for a moment, but did not answer Xiao Huan. Instead, he said to Zhou Yixian: "Senior."
Zhou Yixian had just poured himself another glass of wine, and when he heard this he smiled and said, "What's the matter?"
Gui Li's eyes were slightly hollow, and he whispered: "I remember ten years ago, when I was a young boy who had just come down from Qingyun Mountain, in Heyang City, you once told my fortune, right?"
Zhou Yi Xian and Xiao Huan were both stunned, while Taoist Wild Dog was baffled. Naturally, he knew nothing about those old events. Zhou Yi Xian frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Well, I still remember a few times.
Look, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly asking about what happened back then?"
At this point, a mysterious look suddenly appeared on his face, and he lowered his voice and said to the ghost: "Are you going to say that our fortune-telling money was not good at the beginning after these ten years and want to get back the fortune-telling money?"
"Zhu Xian Miwo Zhu Xian Xiaoying said, "Grandpa!" Xiao Huan scolded Yi Yi Xian. It seemed that he couldn't bear it anymore. He pushed Yi Yi Xian aside and said to Gui Li, "Brother Gui Li, what's on your mind?
Maybe...you can talk to me."
Gui Li glanced at Xiao Huan. There was a rare warmth in the tiredness in his eyes, but he still gently shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I just want to ask the old gentleman a few words."
Zhou Yixian tidied up his clothes and coughed. Immediately, the ancient Taoist immortal style came out. For a moment, the small restaurant hall was like a dazzling flower, and he was the only one to dominate.
"Go ahead." He said calmly, "With our friendship, we can talk about anything, but we still have to give you life money." At the end of the sentence, he ignored Xiao Huan's blushing face and said to him
Zhu Guili blinked his eyes.
Gui Li smiled faintly, and patted Xiao Huan with some comfort, who was about to have a seizure because he felt so embarrassed. Then he turned to Zhou Xian, with a look of confusion on his face, and said: "Senior, you are playing in the world, and you have no knowledge."
Feifan, I have something that makes me confused. I would like to ask, senior, why do you think we are here for the rest of our lives?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Huan and Wild Dog were startled, looking at Gui Li with a puzzled look. But Zhou Xian frowned, the joking color on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression became serious. He did not believe it.
He didn't answer with his mouth, but after pondering for a long time, he slowly said: "You look abnormal, not as usual, but have you encountered any unsatisfactory things again?"
Gui Li was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "My mentor, Master Niang, passed away a few days ago." Zhu Xian Xiaoying said, "Ah!" Xiao Huan and Wild Dog Taoist were both startled and cried out. Zhou Xian frowned.
, sighed and whispered: "Did Tian Buyi go too? What a pity."
Gui Li was indifferent, Zhou Xian closed his eyes slightly, and then looked as usual and said: "No wonder you have a sad look on your face. It's just that separation between life and death is human nature and no one can avoid it. You are an extraordinary person, so why should you indulge in it?
?”
The look of pain on Gui Li's face became even heavier, and he said, "But the death of the two of them is actually closely related to me!"
Zhou Yixian said calmly: "In this case, when your master and master passed away, did you feel any resentment towards you?"
Gui Li lowered his head slowly, and after a while he said slowly: "No, my mentor and my wife were so kind to me. Even before their death, they still cared about me and took me, an unfilial and unfilial disciple, into their sect..." The words came later.
, already slightly choked with sobs.
Xiao Huan next to her looked at Gui Li's appearance, and her eyes turned red without realizing it.
Zhou Xian smiled slightly, with a faint light flowing in his eyes, as if he had jumped out of the mundane world and seen through the world, and said: "Then let me ask you again, when your master and master passed away, did you feel any regrets?"
Gui Li hesitated for a moment and slowly shook his head.
Zhou Yixian smiled and said: "That's it. You should be happy for them. Isn't it the best outcome for them to die without regrets?"
Gui Li raised his head and looked at Zhou Xian, his lips moved slightly and his expression was confused.
