Tianwei Chapter 312: New Life (4)
Dust and smoke rolled in the wilderness.
Countless human voices, animal sounds, drum sounds, and instrument sounds mixed together.
Towering ancient trees swayed in the wind, and countless bonfires as high as mountains illuminated the night as bright as day. In the wilderness, there was a sea of people worshipping.
They whispered prayers and told stories.
In front of them was a high mountain.
On the top of the mountain, there are several figures standing vaguely.
In the mountains and forests, the collision of leaves, the calls of birds and animals, mixed with human voices, came into my ears.
For a moment, it seemed as if countless things flooded into my mind, and the splitting headache was really unbearable.
I couldn't help but scream and suddenly opened my eyes. There was no wilderness at all, only an empty room in front of me.
Although the phantom-like image disappeared, I still felt like something was constantly pouring into my mind. I felt vaguely like I understood something, but I didn't quite understand it.
This feeling is so wonderful, just like the eight divine ropes, it is unpredictable.
I sat on the bed, savoring that special feeling.
That woman used to be my mother, but now, she is my enemy. And she is the most powerful one.
This sense of imminent, life-or-death crisis forced me to work harder than before.
The inheritance of the Five Classics is my greatest help now. My mother wants to use the Five Classics to break through obstacles, and this will also be my opportunity. Good fortune and disaster are interdependent, and no one can predict what the outcome will be.
For several days, I was immersed in thinking about the Five Classics.
The essence of the Eight Ropeway Method is that “wishes come true.”
The effect of practicing the Five Classics in this way was amazing. I could feel that more and more information was pouring into my brain, but the swelling and pain was becoming less and less.
Although I don’t understand much about this information yet, by the time I truly understand it, it may be the moment when I have achieved success in my practice.
Although she didn't go out these few days, the meals were delivered by Fanran. There were a lot of fish and meat, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.
The newly awakened Jiao Ye seemed a little shy, and when he was with me, he was not as clingy as before. This made me feel a little disappointed, but I also felt like my daughter had grown up.
Overall, it's pretty good.
Why don't you go out for a walk? You've been staying in your room for several days. After putting down the food, Hanran persuaded.
I looked out the window. The sun was shining brightly and it was a nice day.
Well, let's go for a walk. I took the food and ate it while walking out.
Fanran followed me and reminded me from time to time: "Eat slowly, hold the bowl steady. Look, the food has spilled on the ground again!"
I know, I know. I answered, stuffing the food into my mouth faster, and then stuffed the empty bowl into her hand: Go, wash the dishes.
Unexpectedly, Fanran just snorted and actually took the bowl to the kitchen.
At this moment, I felt the hem of my clothes tighten, and when I looked back, it was Jiao Ye holding me with her pink little hand. She looked at me timidly, wanting to speak but not daring to.
I smiled and touched her extremely soft golden hair, took her hand and said: Let's go out and bask in the sun with daddy.
She raised her head and blinked at me. Her face blushed slightly, but she nodded gently and let me hold her hand and walk out.
When I walked out of the Taoist temple, I noticed that the old Taoist was sitting cross-legged on the platform at the top of the mountain, motionless.
I led Jiao Ye over and looked at him. The old man had his eyes closed and was breathing steadily. I didn't know what he was doing.
Just as I was about to ask, I heard him say: It's out.
I hummed and asked: What are you doing? Practicing?
Thinking, he replied.
Think? What?
The old Taoist did not answer immediately, his eyes remained closed. After a while, he said: What do you think I should do?
Huh? I was confused: What are you asking?
The Five Classics and the Five Elements… The old Taoist opened his eyes. His originally straight body hunched a little after he opened his eyes. His eyes, which still had spirit, looked at the mountains in the distance. His voice was full of vicissitudes: The Five Elements Pulse has lasted for thousands of years, and now it is finally coming to an end. What will happen to the last five elements?
This question is really difficult to answer. I understand what he means, but I can't give him the answer he wants.
Actually... I still say that there is no need to be so persistent. As long as people are around, everything is the same. I said.
The Five Elements Method and the Five Classics Method are different, the old Taoist shook his head.
Then let’s pass it on together, I said.
Together? The old Taoist frowned slightly, he looked up at me and asked: How come together?
Uh, it's about the Five Classics passing on the Five Classics, the Five Elements passing on the Five Elements, they don't interfere with each other, they become allies, the Three Heroes of Peach Garden, one peach kills three warriors, and so on... I just made it up.
The Taoist priest's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked me: Is this okay?
Why not? I asked in surprise.
Because the emergence of the Five Classics means that the Five Elements have failed. We are of the same origin, just like streams and rivers, and we must eventually converge into the same ocean. The old Taoist said.
So that's what you think... I laughed and said, "But now I am the one who inherits the Five Classics, and you are the one who inherits the Five Elements. Don't we have the final say on this matter?" People's hearts are the most important. At least in my opinion, the Five Elements Meridian did not fail, but was very successful.
Really? asked the old Taoist priest.
Really! I nodded heavily.
The old Taoist looked at me for a long time, then nodded and sighed, saying: I didn’t expect that the Five Elements would be recognized by the Five Classics under such circumstances…
He shook his head, not knowing whether he was happy or not. I didn't care and said directly: No matter what, what should exist will continue to exist. The Five Classics should exist, and the Five Elements should not disappear.
The old Taoist nodded lightly, stood up, patted the dirt off his body twice, and then asked me: What have you been doing these past few days without coming out?
Understand the Five Classics.
Oh? The old Taoist looked at me in surprise: It's not like you to practice so diligently.
This is so hurtful...
Phew... Mr. Jiao laughed softly behind him.
I also laughed and said: The early bird catches the worm, and you have to be diligent to succeed.
It's the best if you can think this way, the old Taoist said with great satisfaction.
Seeing the spirited old Taoist, I really wanted to tell him everything about the underworld, including what I saw in the Three Lives Stone. However, I didn't know how to start, and I didn't know how to face him after I told him.
Decades ago, we were brothers in the same school, and decades later, we became brothers in the same school again.
But decades ago, I stole his most beloved woman.
And decades later, I cut off his relationship with the woman he loved most in his next life.
From this point of view, the Taoist priest was extremely unlucky to meet me.
At this time, Mr. Jiao suddenly tugged at my clothes from behind and reminded me: Someone is coming.
Oh? I turned around in astonishment, but saw nothing: Where is the person?
She pointed timidly down the mountain and said: We're coming up.
Can you see that far?
She nodded and said "hmm". I couldn't help but feel surprised. Although it was half dragon and half human, its body was really different from that of an ordinary person. At least the old Taoist priest and I didn't notice that there was someone at the foot of the mountain.
Can you see who it is? I asked.
Mr. Jiao nodded again, but his face wrinkled: It was that annoying woman.
Woman? Is it her? Unlikely... If it was really her, she wouldn't have walked up step by step.
And the old man who was with her, Jiao Ye added.
When she said that, I immediately understood that it must be Old Liao and Liao Xianer who came up. I didn't expect that they couldn't wait for a few days. Looking at the old Taoist, I thought about it and decided not to let him avoid it. Anyway, they wanted to trick the Liao family, so there was no need to let their own people suffer.
At the same time, the thought carried the information and directly found Gamu.
I told him the news that Mr. Liao was coming. Before I could respond, I heard the old Taoist snort: They really dare to come.
I looked up and saw Mr. Liao and Liao Xian'er walking up the mountain slowly, one in front and one behind.
When they saw the Taoist priest standing next to me, they were immediately surprised. Liao Xian'er was better, and her surprise subsided in an instant, but Liao Lao kept this expression until he walked in front of us.
Are you...alive? he asked.
The old Taoist looked up at the sky, too lazy to pay attention to him. If they had not agreed on it before, he would have probably taken action right away.
You guys came pretty fast, I said with a smile.
Old Liao nodded. He looked at the Taoist priest a few more times, then frowned and asked: Have you found that thing?
I glanced at Liao Xian'er. Master Jiao was behind me, trembling slightly. In Kunlun Mountain, she was severely injured by Liao Xian'er. If Grandpa Shi hadn't arrived in time, she might have died at that time. So she must have a special hatred for Liao Xian'er.
I patted her hand that was holding my clothes, and then said: I found it, but now that the Taoist priest has resurrected, there is nothing you can do to help me.
The meaning of this statement couldn't be more obvious. Old Liao frowned even more tightly, glancing at the Taoist from time to time. Obviously, no matter how smart he was, he couldn't have figured out that I could bring back the Taoist's body from Wu Dian.
It is absolutely true that sometimes experience makes people err.
Looking at his depressed look, I couldn't help but feel happy.
Mr. Liao stood there and thought for a long time before asking: How can you give me that thing?
This question made me a little stunned. Although I decided to trick him, I still haven't come up with a complete plan. When he asked this, I was immediately choked up.
Hmm... I thought about it and said: You guys wait a minute, there is still one person who hasn't arrived yet.
Who else? Mr. Liao glanced around.
The guy you met before, I said.
He said "oh", nodded, and then looked in the direction of the Taoist temple. Liao Xian'er's body moved slightly, but immediately stopped.
Sister Liao...you...Hanran's voice came from behind. At first she was surprised, but later she became extremely angry: How dare you come here!
I noticed that after Fanran's voice sounded, Liao Xian'er's brows also slightly frowned. She opened her red lips slightly and said: Fanran, OK...
She said only three words and stopped talking, her expression returning to calm again.
