Chapter 2376 The avenue is a companion, regardless of the vicissitudes of life! (3)
Su Xuan has been in Ninth City for a year.
This year, he gave up his practice, ignored the ups and downs of Donghuang, and briefly suppressed his stubborn past.
He was like an old man with half his foot in the coffin, quietly waiting for death.
If you want to understand the way of life and death, you must experience life and death.
Su Xuan has experienced ups and downs over the years, and has experienced many lives and deaths.
Regarding the understanding of life and death, there are probably not many people in the Eastern Wilderness who can compare with him.
But Su Xuan always felt that something was missing.
later.
Su Xuan knew.
What he lacks is true aging.
It seems that he has never experienced that kind of twilight, that kind of powerlessness, that kind of loneliness, that kind of feeling that the world is about to abandon him and take away his life.
then.
Su Xuan came to this city of civilians and began to practice Taoism in this mortal world.
The Six Paths of Heavenly Dragons, Feng Lei, and Blizzard are the easiest to cultivate, and they only require the accumulation of time.
The world of life and death comes second, after all, Su Xuan himself has a strong understanding.
Qiankun is heaven and earth.
Su Xuan has the understanding of the sword of mountains and rivers, and naturally he leads to the same goal through different paths.
As for space and curses, they really don't know anything about it. Su Xuan needs to return to the True Dragon Realm to start practicing.
Therefore, Su Xuan focused his main energy on the two realms of life and death, heaven and earth.
During the year on the ninth floor, Su Xuan really gave up everything, occasionally doing some work in exchange for drinking money, occasionally playing with children, occasionally playing chess with the elderly nearby, and sometimes even getting red-faced because of the bad chess.
No one knows that this shameless bastard old man is a famous Daxiu in the Eastern Wasteland today.
This day.
Su Xuan drank a few ounces of wine, bought some side dishes, and returned to his hut happily.
He had drunk the strongest bitter cold wine and also the fairy wine, but at this moment, Su Xuan only loved the sake from the small wine shop.
Maybe...this drink is ordinary life.
Su Xuan shook his head and laughed inexplicably.
Even though I am living an ordinary life at this moment, it is still just a mirror, which can be shattered in a pinch.
"My practice is not enough.
If you are deeply immersed in this ordinary life, you will probably be able to practice the Tao of Life and Death for a year..." Su Xuan shook his head and arrived at his cabin.
But soon, Su Xuan was startled.
Outside the hut.
Yu Qingsi, dressed in a white shirt, stood quietly.
Compared with the low, dirty and cluttered huts surrounding him, Yu Qingsi seemed a little out of place, but he also exuded an unspeakable naturalness.
Seeing Su Xuan, a smile appeared on Yu Qingsi's face: "Old man, we meet again. Are you going to get a drink?"
"Why are you here?"
Su Xuan was surprised.
"What you said a few days ago made me feel deeply.
Thinking of you, I decided to come and meet you."
Yu Qingsi said solemnly.
She knows the suffering in the world and is determined to save lives and heal the wounded.
For this reason, Yu Qingsi practiced practice and enlightenment every day without daring to slack off.
But Su Xuan's words that day gave her a sense of awakening.
No matter how much you practice, no matter how good you are, no matter how nice you talk, no matter how much you practice, it is still not as good as practicing it.
Giving charity is no longer big or small, let alone sequential.
In the past, Yu Qingsi always felt that he was not good at cultivating the Tao and was not good enough to fulfill his own awe-inspiring Tao.
But now it seems that he is confused.
As Su Xuan said before, you don't have to do good deeds when you see them, but you should think about doing good deeds in your heart.
"Why did you come to me?"
Su Xuan is funny.
"You taught me before that I should take the initiative to do good deeds. The more I think about it, the more reasonable it becomes, so I want to come and visit you.
By the way, in the past few days, I have been working with City Lord Xu to improve the lives of the people in the city. Although it cannot cure the root cause, I think it will be much better."
The smile on Yu Qingsi's face was a little bright, as if it was shining. This was something Su Xuan would never have.
"Also, the area where your elderly family lives will also be renovated.
The houses in this area are too old.”
Su Xuan glanced at her and said: "It's better to go too far than it is to go too far. Take it easy. You won't stay in the Ninth City forever."
Yu Qing thought for a moment, then stood in awe and bowed with his hands: "What the old man said is that I was hasty. The old man is indeed a man of great wisdom.
Not only is he knowledgeable about the world, but he also has a good heart and will patiently remind me."
From the very beginning, Yu Qingsi could tell that Su Xuan was impatient with her.
Su Xuan: "..." Can he tell the girl in front of him that he is the evil lord of Donghuang who does all kinds of evil?
Su Xuan shook his head, put away his bad humor, and walked back to the hut.
"Dare you ask the old man his name?"
Yu Qingsi followed Su Xuan respectfully.
"My surname is Su."
"It turns out to be Mr. Su."
"What are you following me for?"
"Mr. Su has great wisdom. I think I can learn a lot from following Mr. Su."
A trace of embarrassment flashed in Yu Qingsi's eyes, but she still said sincerely.
"You are a monk.
And you’re not too young, right?”
"Those who are wise come first, and monks like us have longer life spans. Compared to Mr. Su, I am still a child, so naturally I want to listen to your teachings."
Yu Qingsi had a serious look on her face and stood up straight, like a junior disciple being disciplined by an elder.
Su Xuan: "..." What else could he say? She said everything he could.
"I want to drink, eat, and then sleep. Don't bother me too much."
"I'll pour you some wine."
Yu Qingsi said immediately.
People who don't know, think he is a flatterer.
Not far away, the city lord and several bookstore disciples watched silently.
The city lord said dryly: "Uncle Master Yu...was this the case before?
Or am I blind and didn’t see the old man’s inner self?”
Several bookstore disciples smiled bitterly.
Yu Qingsi is good at everything, but is too single-minded.
As long as Yu Qingsi thinks that someone is worthy of learning, even if it is a child, she will respect it very much and lower her attitude.
In the past, because of Yu Qingsi's character, many people in the bookstore were in panic, thinking that they had offended this senior and scary uncle, and that he was here to ridicule them... It was obvious that Su Xuan was attracted by Yu Qingsi.
the next few months.
Yu Qingsi often came to see Su Xuan and was extremely respectful.
And with the continuous exchanges, Yu Qingsi was also shocked by Su Xuan.
Although some of Su Xuan's words seemed extreme, Yu Qingsi benefited a lot from his knowledge and understanding of the world.
For a while, Yu Qingsi was regarded as a good teacher and helpful friend.
This day.
Yu Qingsi walked over to look for Su Xuan with a somewhat gloomy expression.
"Mr. Su, I have something to ask you."
She said softly.
"Tell me about it?"
Su Xuan said casually, and he was used to Yu Qingsi coming to see him from time to time. After all, apart from his brain being a little abnormal, he was still very obedient overall.
Occasionally, they would help him get drinks... "I came to the Ninth City this time to catch the murderer who killed innocent people indiscriminately in the Ninth City.
I caught someone a few days ago, and he was a child.
He was controlled by the evil people behind him and killed many people.
But he himself is ignorant of life.
I feel that the fault is not with him, but with the people who taught him the wrong things behind his back."
Yu Qingsi thought aloud, with anguish: "But he really killed many people and was cruel. This is a serious crime.
Please ask Mr. Su, how should I deal with him?"
"Kill him, or make him change his ways.
You can only do these two things."
"I think so too, but I can't make up my mind."
Su Xuan looked at her deeply and said, "What was your first thought when you first heard about this?"
Yu Qingsi was silent.
"It seems you want to kill the child."
Su Xuan smiled.
A trace of pain flashed in Yu Qingsi's eyes: "The family members killed by that child are suffering every day. I hope the criminal will get the punishment he deserves.
Looking at them, I feel uneasy."
"Then kill him."
Su Xuan said directly.
"But..." Yu Qingsi stopped talking.
"You want to say that the child is not guilty?"
"Yes..." "Do you think you will regret and feel uneasy if you kill the child?"
Do you think the child can change his ways and should be given a chance?"
"Also..." "Then do people you want to die have the opportunity to choose life and death?"
Su Xuan just said.
Yu Qing was paused in thought.
"Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done. No one can escape, whether they are manipulated or innocent."
Su Xuan said, with an unexplainable meaning flashing in his eyes.
Yu Qingsi sighed deeply: "Mr. Su, I don't know if what you said is correct, but it seems that I can only do this."
"This is the human world."
Su Xuan waved his hand, not wanting to talk to this silly girl about these fucking things.
"By the way, I have been in the Ninth City for several months, but I have never been able to catch the culprit behind it. I am really distressed, and I am also afraid that they will come out and cause trouble.
Mr. Su, do you have any good ideas?"
Yu Qingsi asked again.
"If they don't come out, you won't lead them out?
The9 is not small, but how big can it be?
I've been looking for it one by one, but I still can't find it?"
"But I just can't find it."
Yu Qingsi said in distress.
"Stupid, they are hiding because they are afraid of you, you won't pretend to go back?
And do you think everyone is helping you? Have you ever thought that someone in the City Lord's Mansion is being bribed to monitor your whereabouts?"
Su Xuan was so angry that he laughed.
Yu Qingsi's eyes lit up, then turned cold: "These people are really terrible.
Don't worry, Mr. Su, I will definitely find them all and bring peace to the Ninth City."
Su Xuan: "..." I never worry about it! Su Xuan waved his hand with a look of giving up.
Yu Qingsi left happily.
One month later.
At night, there was great turmoil in the Ninth City. It took most of the night to calm down.
The next day.
Yu Qingsi, who had disappeared for a month, came to Su Xuan excitedly.
"Mr. Su is really good at knowing things. They are indeed colluding with the city lord's palace. I lured the snake out of the hole and pretended to leave, so I lured them all out."
Yu Qingsi looked impressed.
Su Xuan waved his hand feebly, too lazy to offend her.
Yu Qingsi was stunned, looking anxiously at Su Xuan's energy.
"Mr. Su, you don't have long to live..." Yu Qingsi's eyes were full of worry, and he took out another pill as he spoke.
"No need, I have no attachment to the world.
You save me, but you are harming me."
Su Xuan coughed and hurriedly stopped Yu Qingsi.
"Mr. Su..." Yu Qingsi's eyes were sad.
Su Xuan's mouth twitched: "This is my life."
I'm finally going to die, don't make trouble, you bastard! Su Xuan's head is buzzing.
"Mr. Su, why are you doing this?
With your wisdom, even if you start practicing now, you will achieve great success.
I have benefited a lot from being here with you during this period, better than the elderly people in my family."
Yu Qingsi sighed deeply.
"I'm just a bad old man..." "No, Mr. Su, you don't have to be humble.
In my eyes, you definitely have great wisdom and a unique understanding of this world.
According to the words of our monks, great wisdom is like the Tao, and thoughts are the great road! If you practice, you will surpass me in not many years. Then you and I will save the common people, why not be happy..." Su Xuan: "..." He
My little heart trembled, and I was a little afraid of this girl.
"You don't need to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind.
If you save me, it will only make me suffer more."
Su Xuan immediately said in a deep voice.
"It seems that you have been hurt a lot in the past. It is a shame that in this world, such a good person like you is harmed..." As he spoke, Yu Qingsi's eyes turned red.
Su Xuan: "..." What a terrible misunderstanding this is.
Su Xuan closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.
Less than half a year later.
Accompanied by Yu Qingsi's pain, Su Xuan 'suddenly passed away'.
Su Xuan was afraid that this stubborn girl would set him on fire, so he told Yu Qingsi that he was born by the sea, and hoped to be buried at sea and return to the sea... However.
Yu Qing thought about it again and again, and decided not to bury Su Xuanhai.
"Mr. Su, you must have felt that you have no descendants and no one to worship you in the future, so you chose to be buried at sea.
But don’t worry, in the future Qingming Festival, I will always come to worship you and buy you a pot of sake from Katsura Sake House, so you can go with peace of mind.”
