For everyone in the nine peaks of Tianhan Sect’s Han Sect, five days have passed as usual. During these five days, nothing particularly big happened, just like usual.
The sun still rises and sets, the bright moon is still there at night, and the cold wind is as usual, there is no difference or change.
In terms of cultivation, even if you stay in seclusion for five days, you will not make much progress. For almost everyone, these five days are no different from other days of the year.
Tian Lanmeng, who was on the seventh peak, was sitting cross-legged on a large raised rock near the top of the mountain, with the wind blowing her green hair. To her, these five days were just one time to enter samadhi.
Ziyan and Hancangzi each had their own things to do. These five days seemed to have passed quickly without any changes.
Han Feizi on the fourth peak, immersed in her seclusion, silently hunting for Tianlan, making final preparations, especially with the help of her master, she is already close to Kaichen, maybe she can't pass
It can be achieved in a few days.
Sima Xin of the first peak, during these five days, sat in his cave as usual, and his eyes were gloomy when he woke up from time to time.
Most everyone is like this, and the same is true for the Ninth Peak. Huzi's drunken life and death were as usual during these five days, drinking wine, dreaming, snoring like a war drum, waking up happily, and going to sleep happily.
The second senior brother planted flowers and plants during the day, and wandered like a ghost at night. To him, five days passed very quickly.
For Senior Brother, five days is like the blink of an eye. In that silent retreat, if you don't pay attention, it will last for more than one five days.
However, there are still so few people who live like a year in these five days.
Zi Che was one of them. On the first day, he was very calm, but after three days, this calmness turned into hesitation. He had not seen Su Ming for three days.
The most important thing was that in his feeling, there seemed to be no breath in the cave, as if Su Ming was no longer there.
When the fourth day came, his feeling became more obvious and faint. He felt that something was not right. In the past, Su Ming rarely retreated. Even when he was meditating, he would step out from time to time and stand on the platform looking into the distance.
At the edge of the sky.
But now four days have passed and Su Ming has not appeared. This incident makes Zi Che feel a little abnormal.
Especially. During these five days, besides Zi Che, there was also... Bai Su!
She had been waiting here for several days and never left. If Zi Che had not stopped her, she would have rushed into Su Ming's cave a long time ago.
In the middle of the night on the fifth day, Zi Che frowned and sat cross-legged. His eyes occasionally fell to Su Ming's cave, and his heart was full of doubts. But he did not dare to enter without reason.
"How long are you going to stop me? I want to see Su Ming!" While Zi Che was confused, a helpless voice came to his ears.
That was Bai Su, dressed in purple, sitting on the opposite side of the car, with her wild beauty and persistence.
"Su Ming, it's been five days and you haven't seen me yet. Could it be that seeing me is such a big shock to you?"
"Even if you disappear, will you never leave the cave?"
"Unless I die, otherwise, I will never give up!"
The dark cave was as peaceful as ever, with not a single sound coming out. This kind of tranquility made Bai Su's persistence seem to become even stronger.
Zi Che was too lazy to talk to Bai Su anymore. He felt that this woman was a bit unreasonable. It would be annoying to continue to be entangled like this.
Bai Su felt bitter in her heart. She could naturally see Zi Che's expression. She also knew that being so entangled would make people disgusted, but... she had to do this.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind howled, blowing large snowflakes in the face. After the wind passed by, the surroundings were still silent, but Zi Che didn't notice it, and Bai Su didn't even notice it. In the wind, a figure walked into the cave.
Inside, inside, I sat down cross-legged.
On the top of the ninth peak, Tian Xiezi also stepped back and chose to retreat again. The color of his clothes gradually changed.
Huzi did not notice the return of Tian Xiezi and Su Ming. He was still sleeping soundly. The ghostly figure of the second senior brother was floating around. After looking up, he continued to look for his other self who represented destruction.
In the ice layer where the senior brother was in seclusion, a soft gaze flickered slightly, then closed his eyes again and disappeared without a trace.
Su Ming sat cross-legged in the cave. The dark cave at night gave him a familiar feeling of home. He took a deep breath and looked around. To others, the five days passed quickly and were dull.
Heaven, for Su Ming, was an almost earth-shaking change, an experience that ordinary people would never encounter in their lifetime, and a severe crisis of life and death.
Five days in Su Ming felt like five years had passed, or even longer...
In these five days, he saw his master's junior brother and the shocking battle between the two, but the image of this battle in his mind was already blurry and he could not remember it clearly.
Within five days, he saw the old man who made the xun playing a melody of the xun. He experienced an enlightenment in his mind. He gained an understanding of the changes in his heart and made his own decision.
In five days, he went to the land of the Witch Clan and saw the master's powerful cultivation, the spiritual medium, the weird Si Chen, and even the huge golden roc sacred beast that was a thousand feet long!
In five days, he killed one of Si Chen, but he experienced the pursuit of life and death.
In five days, he completed the first complete form of his painting and heard his own barbarian song.
In five days, he had a... transformation from the inside out!
"War, kill, forget..." Su Ming's figure in the darkness raised his head and looked outside the cave. In the soft moonlight, the figure of the woman seemed to exist.
"Three ways to deal with a change of heart... The simplest is to kill! Kill this woman directly and everything will be over. The most difficult is to forget. If Bai Ling is forgotten, Bai Su will not be able to move my heart.
As for war... it can't solve my problem." In Su Ming's ears, Bai Su's voice from outside the cave came, and the voice was very clear in this silent night.
"This is Master's method, not mine..." Su Ming looked calmly at the moonlight outside the cave.
"Changes in the heart are triggered by people or things, to kill, to fight, to forget... These three methods are all escapes... Since it already exists, then let it exist... Just let me go and face it.
Yes." Su Ming whispered to himself.
"The heart changes due to persistence, why can't it become still due to persistence?" Su Ming closed his eyes. After a moment, he slowly opened it, took out the drawing board, and turned it to the front. The front had never changed since he drew the scene.
He went to see it, and now he saw that it was blank, but in his eyes, his own figure appeared on the drawing board, and the grass was entangled on the feet that he wanted to lift up.
A smile appeared on his face, he looked at the green grass and slowly raised his head.
"Zi Che, let her come in."
Outside the cave, Zi Che was hesitating and guessing. He always felt that something was wrong with Su Ming's cave these days. When Bai Su's entangled voice was still echoing in his ears, Su Ming's words suddenly came out from the cave.
At the moment when the sound echoed, Zi Che's mind was shaken, and all the distracting thoughts in his mind immediately disappeared. He stood up and bowed to the cave, saying "yes" respectfully.
Bai Su's eyes flashed, and he walked past Zi Che in a flash, heading straight for the cave. Zi Che followed him, and the two of them walked into Su Ming's cave.
Due to the darkness outside, it was even darker inside the cave. After entering, one could only vaguely see Su Ming's figure, especially since the position where Su Ming was sitting was relatively far back, making it even more difficult to see clearly.
But despite this, when Zi Che stepped into the cave and saw Su Ming, his heart was still roaring. He saw Su Ming's eyes, which seemed to be the same as five days ago, but Zi Che was obviously kind.
He felt a strong sense of pressure. The Su Ming in front of him was completely different from five days ago!
He couldn't tell what was different, but this feeling of coercion made Zi Che feel similar to when he faced Su Ming's second senior brother, or even his master.
If Su Ming was still a little immature five days ago, then he is no longer immature, like a ferocious beast emerging from death after going through wind and rain.
Zi Che's heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head and bowed respectfully.
"Zi Che... pay homage to the master." Zi Che's breathing was a little rapid, his heart was pounding, and the feeling of pressure became more and more intense.
"What happened to him in five days..." Zi Che didn't dare to raise his head, feeling confused as his heart was shaken.
Not only Zi Che felt this way, but Bai Su felt the same way too. The moment he saw Su Ming's gaze, Bai Su's heart was shaken, and the pace that was originally rushing towards him involuntarily slowed down and finally came to a halt.
"Bai Su...bye...bye bye, Uncle Su..." Bai Su's heart beat rapidly, and Su Ming's calm gaze made her eyes wander in a trance. It seemed that the person sitting cross-legged there was not Su Ming.
It was Sima Xin, Tianlan Meng, or even neither of them, but a strong man of her father's generation.
That look seemed to be enough to make people calm down and be absorbed by the gaze, even if they were extremely angry.
Su Ming looked at Bai Su, looking at the face that looked exactly like Bai Ling, and nodded.
"Starting from tomorrow, you can come to me at any time and I will teach you how to paint...Zi Che will not stop you anymore."
There was confusion in Bai Su's mind. She raised her head and looked at Su Ming blankly, wondering why the other party suddenly changed his mind.
"However, I have a request." Su Ming said calmly.
Bai Su's breath froze, and her expression showed vigilance. Su Ming was very bad in her impression. If it weren't for Sima Xin, she would not have such contact with him.
At this moment, seeing Su Ming suddenly agree, Bai Su was already doubtful, but after hearing this request, his eyes slowly turned cold.
"Just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do it."
"When you come to see me, put on a white gown, keep your hair down, tie it with a piece of red cord grass, and turn it into two small braids next to your ears, with the rest of the black hair behind your head.
The forehead should be dotted with some shiny crystal dots, so that when the snow on the ground shakes, it will emit a dazzling brightness.
When you smile, show your little tiger teeth."
Bai Su frowned.
"If you want to transform into the figure in my memory, then dress up like this." Su Ming said slowly and closed his eyes.
Bai Su was silent for a moment, snorted coldly, and turned to leave. To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.
