Chapter 159 She Was Sixteen
Although it was agreed that the five of them would climb the mountain together to enjoy the scenery, Lingrong and the others were fast on their feet, and she couldn't slow down, so she pulled Wanqing along and walked to the front unconsciously.
An Luofu originally wanted to accompany Zhuo Qingtan in the back, but Zhuo Qingtan smiled and waved him away, asking him to go to the front to play with Wanqing Lingrong without restraint.
Although An Luofu didn't want to, he could tell that his senior sister sent him away deliberately, and she probably had something to say to Xie Yuci.
So, he was silent for a moment, then obediently walked forward to follow Wan Qing and Lingrong.
In this way, the five of them gradually turned into Wanqing, Lingrong, and An Luofu walking in front, while Xie Yuci accompanied Zhuo Qingtan and walked slowly behind.
In fact, both Xie Yuci and Zhuo Qingtan had been to Nanshan Wu.
It's just that at that time, one of them was called "Jun Bie" and the other was called "Yu Lan".
Nearly ten thousand years have passed, and although the mountains of Nanshanwu have not undergone any huge changes in general, the landscape has undergone earth-shaking changes during this period.
Some individual plants and trees in the mountains have now become extinct and have disappeared, but some new vegetation species have been transplanted by nearby people over thousands of years.
As time goes by, some things are gradually replaced, but some things remain new and always exist.
He looked around and saw that among the high mountains, there was heavy mist and smoke, and everything seemed so strange.
The same was true for Taiyin Youying in the past. Rewards and punishments were clear, and even among the demon clan, they were generous in their kindness.
She is just ignorant and ignorant. She didn't know that she would frighten mortals like this, but she didn't mean to do evil. Now that I have found out the reason, I will not hurt her."
"So, did she play tricks on these mortals? What happened next? Did you accept her? I heard that there is a demon locking tower in the Zhangjie Hall of Duanxu Palace, where many evil demons are imprisoned."
A few days ago, when I was in Wuxia Town, Wanzhou Prefecture, I heard that when she was fifteen years old, she had been named the head of Duanxu Palace.
Maybe he is very energetic, maybe there is a hint of girlishness in his cheeks.
I think she was in her prime at the age of sixteen, and she should have a face as white as jade.
Will she be more lively and active than she is now?
She said she had been here five years ago.
Five years ago. She must have been only sixteen years old at that time, right?
Perhaps because of her physical injuries, Xie Yuci's face has always been unhealthy and pale since the first time he saw her.
The color of gray and defeat.
This hasn't changed at all.
Xie Yuci suddenly felt as if he had lost his way: "Actually, I have been to this mountain range before."
So, what will she look like at the age of sixteen?
Zhuo Qingtan smiled lightly, recalled it thoughtfully, and then replied: "My master often retreats and likes to travel around the world to understand the way of heaven.
She smiled and shook her head: "But where has her moral deeds come from? She doesn't look like a human being at all, so how can a mortal think she looks like a human being? Naturally, she tried to get the title again and again, but every time she failed."
Zhuo Qingtan tilted his head and smiled, his eyes were cold, but there was a hint of warmth in his eyes.
Zhuo Qingtan smiled: "She won't do it anymore. I have solemnly warned her that she should not focus on the shortcuts to get the title, and I also explained to her the truth. I think she will definitely not continue to do this in the future.
"
"But she is not a demon."
Xie Yuci did not speak when he heard the words, but nodded slightly in silence.
Xie Yuci raised his eyebrows: "Why is this? Isn't Zhuozhanggong always jealous of evil?"
However, given Zhuo Qingtan's character and being constrained by Duanxu Palace's strict etiquette and rules when she was growing up, her temperament should not be much different from her current temperament when she was fifteen or sixteen years old.
After the banquet, on the way back to Yunzhou, I heard that there was a mountain spirit here that was disturbing the people, so I came to the mountain to investigate. However, it was not the mountain spirit that disturbed the people, but a naughty white ghost that could not yet transform.
Fairy."
Xie Yuci turned his head to look at her in surprise: "Oh? When did you come here?"
She sighed softly: "If you want to achieve immortality among monsters and beasts, there is no other shortcut other than concentrating on cultivation and doing good deeds. The little hedgehog is simple and kind. I think she will have a chance to achieve enlightenment sooner or later."
Xie Yuci subconsciously looked at the fair and thin face of the person next to him.
Zhuo Qingtan smiled lightly and nodded, with a look of reminiscence on his face.
Will she have baby fat on her cheeks at that time?
She explained in a low voice: "The Demon Locking Tower only locks evil demons and never harms innocent people. The little hedgehog just likes to stop lone mortals from asking for a seal. Even if the request fails, she has never hurt the lives of the villagers.
Although Xie Yuci was revisiting his old place, he had seen it before and the traces of his journey had long been erased by time and could never be traced again.
Xie Yuci raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Baixian? What Baixian?"
She heard from an old demon who lived in seclusion in the mountains that if she could find a destined person and succeed in seeking the title, she would be able to attain the Tao as soon as possible and become a human being. So, she went to the mountains to look for lonely mortals every day and asked them about herself.
Does it look like a human being?"
"It's a very small little hedgehog. It looks like it has just developed some Taoism.
Speaking of which, they had known each other for tens of thousands of years, but he had never seen her as a child.
The next moment, he suddenly nodded: "Is it the hedgehog spirit?"
Xie Yuci said calmly: "Then what if she continues to look for people like this in the future?"
Five years ago, it was a great occasion for An Shishu to know his destiny. It happened that the family master was traveling abroad and could not be found. Therefore, I came to Jiusheng Mountain on behalf of Duanxu Palace to attend the 50th birthday banquet of An Shishu.
The fame of the Holy Emperor in the past was even more powerful and famous all over the world than that of the Holy Emperor in the Nine Heavens who rarely descended to the mortal world.
Zhuo Qingtan shook his head gently and said with a faint smile: "I let her go."
Zhuo Qingtan was quiet for a moment and replied calmly: "Changchun City is the most scenic place in the three states of the North. It is not surprising that you have been here. I have also been here before."
Xie Yuci nodded thoughtfully.
But thinking about it, probably not
Although he had never seen Taiyin Youying when she was young in her previous life, he didn't know what Taiyin Youying looked like when she was young.
Presumably she must have been a calm and decent person at that time, with the utmost restraint and propriety, right?
Therefore, her master, Master Duanxu Palace, was so satisfied that he even handed her the head token representing the master of Duanxu Palace in advance.
Xie Yuci suddenly smiled and said sadly: "Actually, when I came here to travel and experience, I was about the same age as you when you came here."
At that time, "he" was still called "Jun Farewell". He was really innocent and didn't know what it was like to be sad.
