"Why are you dazed? Go boil some water!" Ke Guanyue came to Sheng Qianmo.
Her face was expressionless, with a bit of indifference.
Sheng Qianmo looked at his feet. They were a set of women's clothes, left behind by a female disciple who came to bathe before.
And this is the first time in more than a year. I don’t know how many times.
After Sheng Qianmo settled in this place, he was responsible for boiling water every day and watched these female disciples come and then leave every day.
But Tianzihaoyuan is different.
The female disciples who entered here did not leave the way they came from, but directly climbed the stairs leading to higher places.
At first, Sheng Qianmo didn't think there was anything wrong, but as the female disciples climbed up the stairs one by one and then never appeared again, a bit of gloom emerged in his heart.
"What will happen after they go up?" Sheng Qianmo couldn't help but ask. This was not the first time he asked.
But Ke Guanyue would never answer him before.
"Dead", it was Ke Guanyue who actually answered this time.
Sheng Qianmo didn't expect Ke Guanyue to answer him, but the answer he got surprised him even more, "Dead?"
"They go up there to die."
Ke Guanyue said calmly, without any expression on his face.
"But..." Sheng Qianmo opened his mouth and frowned, "But they don't look like they are going to die at all. Instead, they feel that something glorious is about to happen, and they are full of expectations!"
Going to death with full expectation and taking death as an honor?
It is not that there are no such people in the world, but Sheng Qianmo understands that these girls are definitely not such people.
Those who have that kind of will have gone through hardships and become enlightened in their hearts.
And these female disciples are all young and innocent, they have never suffered at all, and their daily lives are relaxed and comfortable.
There seems to be only one purpose in their lives, and that is to be chosen and then climb the ladder.
That is their glory, but they themselves don't seem to know what is behind the glory.
Sheng Qianmo guessed many possibilities, but he did not expect that it would be the coldest death after all.
Sheng Qianmo's fists hidden in his sleeves tightened. Do those girls really understand what they are about to face?
"Why?" Sheng Qianmo was puzzled.
"Because some people want to continue living, then these fresh lives are the best supplement for them." Ke Guanyue continued to answer today without knowing why.
"What?" Sheng Qianmo was shocked.
These girls are all just for taking supplements?
It's just used to extend one's life.
Then their fate is so sad. The glory they were waiting for was death, and they became the nourishment of others.
What were they thinking at the moment of death?
Sheng Qianmo has always been hidden and has no interaction with these female disciples, but at this moment, his mind cannot be calm and his teeth are clenched.
He doesn't agree with taking other people's lives like this!
"Miss Ke, are you also..." Sheng Qianmo thought of something, his face suddenly turned pale, and he couldn't help but ask.
Ke Guanyue understood what Sheng Qianmo wanted to say, frowned, and shouted: "You talk a lot of nonsense as always. If you have nothing to do, go boil some water!"
"Miss Ke!" It was Sheng Qianmo, whose tone was a little more serious.
Ever since he came here, he had always obeyed Ke Guanyue's words and hardly dared to disobey him, but now, he suddenly became tough.
Ke Guanyue was startled for a moment, a little surprised. She was not someone who liked nonsense, and she didn't want to waste time. But in the end, she still said: "This is why I exist. Sooner or later, I will climb that step."
Sheng Qianmo was stunned. At this moment, Ke Guanyue was still as beautiful as usual, but he had never discovered that there was a bit of desolation hidden in this beauty.
Is Ke Guanyue also burdened with that sad fate?
She is here every day, watching each junior sister, one step ahead of her, heading towards destruction?
Sheng Qianmo felt his heart being scratched hard. No matter what, he did not want to see Ke Guanyue end his life like this.
"Miss Ke, why don't you run away?"
"That person is the Heavenly Lord, and his decree is my destiny!"
Holy Qianmo, silence.
He has been in the Taoist world for some time. Over the past year or so, he has made rapid progress, so he naturally understands the existence of Tianzun.
A single thought from the Heavenly Lord caused changes in all the heavens and worlds. How could the things he decided be changed so easily?
The mission given to the weak by the strong is the destiny of the weak!
"How long?" After a long silence, Sheng Qianmo asked, his voice already hoarse.
Ke Guanyue frowned and looked at the young man in front of her.
"You should leave. In fact, I asked you to leave a long time ago," Ke Guanyue said calmly.
Sheng Qianmo was stunned, he should have left long ago.
Boiling water here can indeed promote his growth, but his talent is too high, and this place can no longer provide him with sufficient training conditions.
His current level is obviously lagging behind.
However, Sheng Qianmo himself doesn't know why he stays here. He only knows that he is very satisfied with his current life. If no one else comes and goes, he will be more satisfied.
So he doesn't want to leave.
But now, Ke Guanyue told him that maybe soon, she would have to climb that step to embrace the fate determined by the strong but it was already her destiny.
A sudden vacancy in his heart made Sheng Qianmo understand the reason for staying here.
"No", Sheng Qianmo shook his head.
"Why?" Ke Guanyue frowned.
"I said, I will be responsible for the girl," Sheng Qianmo said.
"For some inexplicable reason, if you don't want to boil the water, then go away," Ke Guanyue said calmly, turned and left.
"Miss Ke!" Sheng Qianmo shouted, "I only believe that fate is in my own hands!"
"You are right, I should indeed leave, but before that, please answer me a question," Sheng Qianmo said.
"What?" Ke Guanyue turned around.
"If you had a choice, would you like to...leave here?" Sheng Qianmo asked, but he was too shy to say the word "and me".
"I should have said it before, that is..."
"Miss Ke, you just need to answer my questions!" Sheng Qianmo directly interrupted Ke Guanyue.
Ke Guanyue frowned. She felt a little baffled by Sheng Qianmo today, but she seriously thought about Sheng Qianmo's problem.
When you look up, you see an unchanging sky. How long have you been looking at this scene? Ten years, a hundred years or a thousand years?
Ke Guanyue herself can no longer remember.
Sheng Qianmo looked at Ke Guanyue, nervously waiting for the next step.
Ke Guanyue finally spoke, her tone softened a lot, "I heard someone say before... well, it's probably in that direction, there is a huge sea there."
"Sometimes I think it would be nice to go see the sea," Ke Guanyue said lightly.
"I will take you to see it," Sheng Qianmo said.
"Really?" Ke Guanyue didn't care.
"Yeah, so I'm leaving now."
Sheng Qianmo understood that if he continued to stay here, he would be unable to do anything.
"You should have left long ago," Ke Guanyue said.
"I will come back. Until then, wait for me!" Sheng Qianmo said with a smile.
He left directly without waiting for Ke Guanyue's answer, because with Ke Guanyue's character, he would have refused directly.
He is a very slow person, but it is obvious that Ke Guanyue is more slow than him.
Ke Guanyue watched Sheng Qianmo leave and didn't know what she was thinking. She gradually put her hand on her heart, and there were some unprecedented fluctuations there.
"baffling."
Ke Guanyue turned around and looked at the stairs and the palace shrouded in clouds above the stairs. It looked like dusk and bleak. Time was running out.
