Farewell to Zhi Tianxuan, Wu Yi and Yue Liuli held hands, rode on the auspicious clouds, and enjoyed their time together. It's not that they couldn't summon ghost soldiers to protect them, but it would inevitably ruin the atmosphere.
More than a thousand miles away from Xishan, the sacred mountain behind is still towering, but with eyesight alone, it is difficult to see clearly the face of Zhi Tianxuan, unless the other party leaks emotions such as murderous intent, hatred, and leads to spiritual pursuit.
Above the sky, Wu Yi looked down at the vast land of the Western Land. Over the past few decades, as Zhi Tianxuan, the divine king of the Western Mountains, came to the throne, the Western Land had regained some vitality. There were more and more people flowing there, and small villages were dotted like oases in the desert.
In a vast and sparsely populated place, it is easy for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. However, it is impossible to become rich and powerful. Generally speaking, in this kind of place, there is neither a wealthy family nor the risk of being cold and exhausted.
Immortalism will not do this kind of thing. The number of people is small. There is no basis for the birth of humanity. Only Shinto will work hard to do it because it affects their believers. The more difficult the believers in places, the stronger their faith. Shinto has this motivation to do it.
This is their fundamental interest.
People were bustling and living peacefully, it was a peaceful scene. Wu Yi said to Yue Liuli in his arms: "Do you envy the life of ordinary people?"
Yue Liuli also lowered her gaze, looking at the living creatures living there, and replied: "I am envious, but I am not envious either!"
Wu Yi smiled and waited for Yue Liuli's explanation later.
"I envy the ordinary things they can enjoy, but I also know that their tolerance for risks is extremely low. A slight disturbance from the outside world can separate their wives and families." Yue Liuli was born in a noble family, but for many years he has been at the bottom of the class.
There is not much we know about the underlying things.
"So, do you want to be more ordinary? Or do you want to be more extraordinary?" Wu Yi continued his question.
Yue Liuli hesitated for a moment, and Wu Yi suddenly asked this, feeling that there seemed to be a deep meaning behind it, but no matter what, she didn't think clearly about what Wu Yi wanted to say behind the scenes, so she answered in a decent manner: "If you really have to choose, it must be something extraordinary.
This way you will feel less restrained.”
Yue Liuli is walking on the extraordinary road now, so there is no way she can be allowed to say words that go against her will! The only thing that people cannot betray is their own past.
You have no choice but to face it squarely. Even if you are a saint, you can wipe away the memories of all sentient beings, but you cannot wipe away your own memory. Why should you deceive yourself and others?
Wu Yi smiled and said: "To me, ordinary people have clear emotions, anger, sorrow and joy, unlike us, where the seven emotions and six desires have become the shackles of spiritual practice, and the expressions on their faces are all pretending to be seen by others. Even so,
Calculations still exist all the time, even among people who are close to you."
Yue Liuli listened to the first half with a smile. After listening to the second half, Yue Liuli's pupils became larger and her breathing almost stagnated. She felt that even the wind around her had stopped, the clouds had stopped, and everything was gone.
If they are stagnated together, they cannot be dissolved.
Wu Yi caressed Yue Liuli's smooth back, stretching her nerves that collapsed due to nervousness. He put his nose in Yue Liuli's hair and savored the fragrance.
"Do you want to say that Master and I are "plotting" about your affairs?" After a while, Yue Liuli came back to her senses and said calmly.
"During those few days when I was sleeping, Master must have met you!" Wu Yi asked, blowing hot air into Yue Liuli's ear.
"Yes! Do you want to know what we talked about?" Yue Liuli felt extremely bitter and extremely disappointed in her heart. Even now, does he still not believe in himself? Tears of grievance could not stop falling, and he
Is the choice really right?
"No need, Master is doing it for my own good, I know that." She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Yue Liuli's eyes with her sleeves, "And I also know your feelings for me! Some insignificant means can be used.
It’s okay.”
After waking up, Yue Liuli deliberately distanced herself, using retreat to advance. Yue Liuli had been following Wu Yi for so long and had never used this method. It was obviously not something she came up with on her own. If she really wanted to gain enlightenment, she would not do it at this time.
This is the first doubt.
And when he saw Zhi Tianxuan later, his weird look in his eyes made it easy to think that it might have something to do with his mistress, which made Wu Yi want to share his worries. However, he didn’t know what happened to his mistress, so where could he find a solution?
Master is a little happier.
When he left, he suddenly stopped. Thinking of his previous proposal to persuade Wu Yi to buy loose leaves, it is not difficult to think, what did Zhi Tianxuan mean?
Wu Yi is willing to break the shackles in his heart. An entry point is that Wu Yi actually wants to make Zhi Tianxuan happy and relieve the troubles on his eyebrows. No matter how the water is boiled, it will never exceed one hundred degrees, which is its boiling point.
But adding a drop of oil makes it different.
The only difference between Wu Yi and Yue Liuli is a drop of oil. So from this perspective, Wu Yi does not hate Zhi Tianxuan.
Including during the subsequent banquet, Zhi Tianxuan presented his past embarrassing story to Yue Liuli, which actually enhanced the understanding between the two. Zhi Tianxuan had good intentions, so Wu Yi knew it, but did not say it at the banquet.
"Then -" Yue Liuli wanted to ask Wu Yi why he was bothering with it. You know everything yourself, so what else are you asking? Isn't it okay for Taoists to maintain good-faith concealment? It's just words on the lips, but
Lost his voice.
"I have been lonely since I was a child. At the age of ten, I left my motherland and went to a foreign country. I escaped numerous soldiers and thousands of city gates. The journey was difficult and dangerous. What kept me alive was not kindness and honesty, but suspicion and concealment."
Yue Liuli was speechless. Was he recalling his childhood? Yue Liuli had heard of this part a little bit, but because Wu Yi's subsequent demeanor was too dazzling, this part became a footnote to his continuous self-improvement and his courage to climb to the top.
"Even for a person like Master, I can only tell him 50% of the secret at most, but for you, I want to tell you more." Wu Yi said as he stroked Yue Liuli's slightly messy hair with his palm.
.
When you know the secret, you also have the obligation to keep it secret. Trust between people is often corrupted by so-called white lies. If this continues, it will only make people think that you are stupid.
, so confusing.
"I know." Yue Liuli started crying like a child who had done something wrong, muttering in a low voice. This time, maybe it really scared her.
Gently patting Yue Liuli's back, Wu Yi looked straight into the distance. Instead of causing unpleasantness in the future, it was better to be prepared from the beginning.
