Chapter 688 What will happen in the future, no one can tell
Chapter 688 No one can tell what will happen in the future
Hearing the master's question, Luo Wenzhou's eyes flashed with confusion and some shame.
In fact, many times he would envy his two senior brothers, thinking that they had clear goals and devoted all their efforts towards them.
But this will also make him feel like he is always standing still, as if he has done something and yet as if he has done nothing.
At the beginning, he wanted to help everyone who was in difficulty.
So no matter how dangerous it is, as long as there is a place where he is needed, he will travel thousands of miles to go.
But after getting to know Master, he realized that his little efforts alone could not change the world.
The vast majority of people still live in endless darkness.
Even if he reaches out and pulls them out this time, it won't take long before darkness will cover them again.
This made him gradually lose his direction and felt that everything he did was in vain.
Of course, he did not stop this behavior because of this. Whenever he heard that there was danger, he would still rush to the scene as soon as possible.
But after rescuing a crisis, he always felt empty in his heart, because this "victory" was insignificant, and he knew that everything he did was treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
Later, he also tried to change himself and find his own way.
For example, his senior brother told him that he had a very high talent in elixirs, so he worked hard to study alchemy.
But he is not a "hard worker" like his senior brother. Sitting in front of the cauldron all day long will only make him feel bored.
Although he has been ashamed of his "impetuousness" more than once, people are different and forcing himself will only be counterproductive.
So Luo Wenzhou gave up this life of sitting in front of the cauldron all day long and started looking for something different.
Later he was "assigned".
The master asked him to walk around and look around. Luo Wenzhou knew that this was because the master wanted him to look around and maybe gain new insights.
And during this long journey, he did gain a lot of insights.
As the saying goes, "all living beings suffer", it is hopelessly difficult to really free everyone from suffering. At least he doesn't know where to start.
But he knew that Master could definitely do it.
So he had a new goal. As long as he firmly followed Master and completed all the tasks assigned by Master, he would be able to lead all sentient beings out of the sea of suffering.
But when he was executing it, he fell into confusion again. As the forces that the master came into contact with became more and more powerful, he found that his ability was not enough at all.
Not to mention this time in Yuancheng, even when he was in Tan Kingdom before, he could only help Senior Brother Gu.
This made Luo Wenzhou realize once again that this was not going to work. He had to work hard, find his chosen direction and start running wildly.
"I..." Luo Wenzhou looked up at Master and sighed: "I'm sorry, Master, I still don't know what I want to do..."
"Then tell me what you are doing every day."
"After I get up every day, I will practice Kung Fu with Senior Brother Wu for an hour, then go to the elixir shop to study for two hours. In the afternoon, I will attend some banquets for senior officials of the Tan Kingdom."
"Banquet?" Jiang Beiran interrupted.
"Well, it was Senior Brother Gu who asked me to go there. He said that it was easiest to get important information by hanging out there, and at the same time, I could get to know more high-level figures in the Tan Kingdom."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran continued: "So you are now familiar with the high-level circles of Tan State?"
"I can't say I'm familiar with them, but I do know a lot of people."
As soon as Luo Wenzhou finished speaking, Gu Qinghuan on the side raised his hands and said, "Senior brother, what Junior Brother Luo said is too modest. As of now, many large sects and families in Tan have been infiltrated by his people."
"His people?"
"Yes." Gu Qinghuan nodded, then looked at Luo Wenzhou and said, "Junior brother Luo should tell you this himself."
"Senior Brother Gu is so complimentary." Luo Wenzhou first bowed his hands to Gu Qinghuan, then looked at Jiang Beiran and replied: "Actually, they are just confidante. They are very kind. As long as it is something innocuous, they are willing to help me."
‘emmmmmmm…’
After hearing this answer, Jiang Beiran wanted to pat Luo Wenzhou on the shoulder and tell him that the most suitable route for him was to be a cowherd. No, to be precise, he should be called a male publicist.
Suppressing the urge to complain, Jiang Beiran asked: "What do you think you enjoy most when doing it?"
"They are all very happy, but they are all just very happy."
'Um?'
Wu Qingce was stunned when he heard this. He thought that Junior Brother Luo practiced with him on time every day because he also liked practicing, but now it seems that this is not the case.
'No wonder he doesn't want to practice his legs every time I ask him to...'
"Then have you ever thought that maybe this is your best state?"
Luo Wenzhou was stunned after hearing this, and looked at the master with some confusion, not understanding what it meant.
"As I told you before, people are different. If you always live in the shadow of others and always compare your own shortcomings with other people's strengths, then your impetuousness will always be with you.
around."
Luo Wenzhou fell into deep thought after listening. He seemed to understand what the master said, but he didn't seem to understand it.
"Follow your desires. You can only love others if you love yourself first." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he glanced at Wu Qingce who was standing aside, "You are the same in this regard."
Although Wu Qingce, who was inexplicably lying on the gun, did not quite understand the meaning of this sentence, he immediately nodded and said: "Yes, senior brother, I understand."
"boom!"
At this time, Jiang Beiran suddenly slapped Luo Wenzhou on the back, "Don't be anxious, make yourself happy first. The answer you want will eventually appear by itself."
"Thank you, Master, for your teaching. I have learned from it."
"Um."
Luo Wenzhou is a smart man, and Jiang Beiran believes that even if he doesn't understand what he is saying for a while, he will definitely understand it if he goes back and thinks about it a few times.
"Okay, let's go find Yangze. It's been a long time since we last met."
"Yes." The three of them raised their hands together and walked towards Qu Yangze, who had been looking here in the yard.
Seeing the four disciples gathering together and chatting enthusiastically, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but smile knowingly. He had been worried about their safety when the miasma struck before.
Now that I know that none of them suffered much, I feel much more at ease.
"Hey, you guys!"
Just when Wu Qingce and the three of them were reminiscing with Qu Yangze, Shi Fenglan suddenly ran over and shouted to them.
"Master Shi." Several people saluted Shi Fenglan.
"What's the point of chatting just to reminisce about the past?" After saying that, she took out the simulated immortal cultivator from the Qiankun Ring, "How can we not miss this to enhance our relationship? We haven't played together for a long time."
"Okay." The four of them agreed.
They would never refuse Shi Fenglan's request, because even her senior brother would not refuse her many times, let alone them.
"Xiao Bei..." Shi Fenglan looked at Jiang Beiran and waved, but she took it back halfway because she knew Xiao Beiran still had many important things to do.
Seeing Shi Fenglan swallowing her words back, Jiang Beiran stepped forward and took out a box from the Qiankun Ring and handed it to her and said: "These are the event cards and character cards I made newly, go ahead and play with them."
For Jiang Beiran, making these gadgets is a way to take a break from busy work, just like when he wants to make a delicious meal from time to time.
Just like what he said to several disciples before, one cannot push oneself too hard, otherwise it will be like a spring. The harder one presses, the more unstoppable it will be when it rebounds.
The suppressed negative emotions will not disappear out of thin air, they are just accumulated there, and the best way to get rid of them in a timely manner is.
“Hey!” Shi Fenglan’s eyes widened as she took the box, “Can I play now!?”
"certainly."
"Great!"
With a cheer, Shi Fenglan opened the box and found that inside there were not only cards with the same exquisite painting style, but also many ingenious weapons and equipment, each one of which she couldn't put down.
"Go and play."
"Yes." Nodding vigorously, Shi Fenglan picked up the box and ran to the long table, calling for everyone to come and play.
Jiang Beiran changed his outfit and prepared to go find Luo Jingtian.
Although he didn't have anything to talk to Luo Jingtian, now that he's here, local cowards always want to meet him. This is a matter of etiquette.
"Are you going to find Luo Da'er?" At this time, Venerable Wuxiang suddenly came to him and asked.
Hearing the words "Luo Daer", Jiang Beiran couldn't help but recall Luo Jingtian's appearance. Those ears... were indeed not small.
"Yeah." Jiang Beiran nodded, then he glanced at Shi Fenglan and said, "Why don't you go play together?"
"Don't worry, I have something to tell you."
"What words?"
Just when Jiang Beiran thought that Venerable Wu Xiang was chatting with him about Tan or Ji, he saw her leaning into his ear and whispering: "You were so handsome when you were teaching your disciples just now. I liked it so much."
"Is this what you want to say?"
Listening to Jiang Beiran's reasonable and unexpected answer, Venerable Wuxiang sighed, changed the subject and said: "You just said that sooner or later you will really want to plan the world. This sentence is true.
Of?"
"Fake."
‘?’
Venerable Wuxiang, who had a question mark slowly appearing on his head, was stunned. She had thought that Jiang Beiran would give various answers, but she never thought that it would be this one.
After holding it in for a while, Venerable Wuxiang said again: "You said before that you would count me among your subordinates, so why can't you tell me the truth?"
"I didn't lie to you."
"..."
"Then you plan to stand behind the scenes and balance the entire continent?"
"Maybe, no one can say clearly what will happen in the future."
After hearing this, Venerable Wuxiang blinked twice, stared straight at Jiang Beiran and asked, "Then... what's the future for us two?"
"Of course I can't tell."
Although it was not a word of love at all, Venerable Wuxiang felt an inexplicable sweetness after listening to it, and he could even feel his pretty face getting a little hot.
Without continuing to break the casserole and ask the question, Venerable Wuxiang waved his hand towards Jiang Beiran and said: "Then you go quickly, I will wait for you at home."
Hearing the word "home", Jiang Beiran couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.
'Home... is such a familiar yet unfamiliar word.'
Seeing Jiang Beiran's slightly sentimental smile, Lord Wuxiang felt that his pretty face was getting even hotter.
Before this, she thought she had long since escaped the vulgar taste of looking at faces.
She also firmly believes that a person's inner being is the key, and the face is just a skin. What does she want that she can't have?
But Jiang Beiran made her realize that it was too early to make a conclusion. Maybe the face was just skinny, but temperament and charm really couldn't be imitated.
She didn't know why, but Jiang Beiran's every move was so perfect in her eyes, and every little movement he made touched her heart.
And at this moment, this smile that she had never seen before was like a sledgehammer hammering on her heart, making her feel like her breathing was a little short.
"Okay, wait until I come back." Jiang Beiran nodded towards Venerable Wuxiang, then turned and left Fei Mansion.
"call……"
As Jiang Beiran left, Lord Wuxiang slumped down on a chair nearby, his mind filled with Jiang Beiran's words "Of course I can't explain" and "Wait until I come back."
"What's wrong with you?" Mi Wanwen, who had just walked out of the machine room, came to Lord Wuxiang and asked.
"It's nothing, just leave me alone for a while."
Seeing the happy expression on Lord Wuxiang's face, Mi Wanwen shrugged and walked towards Shi Fenglan.
It wasn't because they were having a great time, but the ingenious carvings on the table attracted her attention.
"Wanwen, do you want to play together?" Seeing Mi Wanwen coming, Shi Fenglan raised her hand and greeted her.
Mi Wanwen smiled slightly and replied, "I'll take a look first."
"Okay." After agreeing, Shi Fenglan took the dice on the table and said, "It's my turn!"
After saying that, she threw the dice on the table and it stopped on five.
"One, two...five, event card."
Shi Fenglan said, drawing one card from the event card pile, and said: "Environmental card, rain from the sky, the damage of water-type moves will be increased by one for five rounds."
"Okay." With a cheer, Shi Fenglan put the rain card into the special environment card slot on the chessboard.
Then I saw a cloud of rain gathering above the long table, and in Mi Wanwen's surprised eyes, it started to rain, and even a rainbow appeared in the middle.
Surprised, Mi Wanwen stretched out her hand to test the "rain" and found that it was completely an illusion, but the illusion was so realistic.
Seeing Mi Wanwen's surprised look, Shi Fenglan suddenly became proud and said proudly: "Awesome, Xiao Beiran did this. Everyone had the same expression as you when they first met."
"It's indeed very impressive." Mi Wanwen nodded and asked, "When you finish playing, can you let me see this chessboard?"
"This..." Shi Fenglan thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "You have to ask Xiao Beiran about this, I can't make the decision."
"Okay, then I'll sit on the side and take a look."
"Let's play together. There are many interesting things."
"But I can't."
"It's okay, I'll teach you." Shi Fenglan said to the others: "This game doesn't count. Let Wanwen come in and play together."
At this time, Gu Qinghuan, who had already got two magic weapons in his hand, smiled slightly, put down the cards and said, "Of course."
