The bright moon in the sky is like a jade plate, and there are more than one, so the night in Ziguangxu is not dark.
Coupled with various luminous plants and lights everywhere, the night is as bright as day, but has a somewhat hazy aesthetic.
Under the trees in the forest, with the bright moon hanging high, it is indeed a good time to drink and talk.
Tang Zhen and the two sisters who ran the tavern had a lively chat while eating barbecue and drinking wine.
Not long after, another guest arrived. My sister went to entertain them, but she continued to drink and chat with Tang Zhen.
At the same time, he greeted his sister, asked her to close the door, and then came over to chat with her.
This is the mentality of the residents of Ziguangxu. If they are happy, what will happen if they don’t do business?
The sister looked slightly tipsy, but she held on to the wine glass and talked to Tang Zhen.
"Many monks come to Ziguang Ruins and stay for a long time, waiting for the right time to go exploring.
It can be said that every monk here is an explorer, and the same is true for the customers we entertain.
I know a monk who stayed in Ziguangxu for seventy years just to collect the elixirs needed for a set of elixirs.
Just twenty years ago, he successfully collected all the elixirs and then refined the elixir he wanted.
After paying for the elixir, his strength was improved and he reached the realm he had dreamed of.
Ordinarily, at this time, one should learn to make choices and not take risks in Ziguang Ruins.
Who would have thought that he would continue to explore the Ziguang Ruins just like before, refusing to give up no matter what."
The woman said this, drank the wine in the glass, and said to Tang Zhen blankly: "Guess what happened next?"
Tang Zhen did not hesitate and answered directly: "After he went in, he never came out again."
The woman knocked the wine glass on the table, widened her eyes and asked, "Sure enough, even you can see that there will be no good results for him!"
Although the wine of Ziguangxu is sweet and refreshing, it is too easy to get intoxicated. This woman, who originally had a soft face, now has a bold aura.
But there is a bit of sadness hidden between the eyebrows, which cannot be diluted with throat-burning liquor.
"I should say, you told me."
Tang Zhen answered with a smile, but he was secretly wary in his heart.
Although with his strength, he can be almost unafraid of any crisis, it does not mean that he is invincible.
In the spiritual world, there are countless hidden masters, and high-level god generals may not become targets of hunting.
Gods can fall, so how can I take it lightly? There is actually no harm in being cautious in everything.
"You are very smart, you guessed the result right away.
But even if you know the danger, you will still enter Ziguang Ruins, am I right?"
The woman who claimed to be her sister continued to pour wine and drank with Tang Zhen, looking like she would never get drunk after a thousand cups.
"That's right, I came here just for Purple Light Ruins, how could I not go in?
Especially since you just said that the most amazing thing about Ziguang Ruins is that you can find anything you want.
Whether it is for ordinary people or for practitioners, this is an irresistible temptation."
Tang Zhen answered with a smile, and then ordered two more bottles of wine.
The sister next to her smiled and turned around to get the wine bottle. She didn't seem to be worried that her sister would drink too much.
In fact, if you think about it, residents of the Lingji Realm don't have to worry about death, so how can they worry about harming their bodies after getting drunk.
“It is said that practitioners are free and free, and can do whatever they want without any restrictions.
But in my opinion, your life is actually more tiring, because you are always wearing a pair of shackles.
He says he has no desires, but he is always thinking about improving his own strength and desperately grabbing things that are not easy to obtain.
It's okay to say it succeeds, but if it fails, all the hard work in the past will be in vain.
What is carefree and free, what is immortality, is actually just a joke.
Being able to leave behind a piece of remains, put it in a thin-skinned coffin and leave a tombstone is already a very lucky thing.
In most cases, there are basically no bones left, and nothing is left.
It can only make the living sad and die worthless, which is simply stupid..."
The eyes of the woman who claimed to be her younger sister were blurred and changing, and the sad color became more and more intense.
Tang Zhen couldn't help but secretly guess that maybe she had an emotional experience with a certain monk that was difficult to let go of.
As a result, in the end, the lovers have no chance to get together, and may even be separated forever.
Otherwise, the woman in front of her would never be so aggrieved, as if practicing cultivation was the biggest sin in the world.
In fact, just by thinking this way, you can see the difference between monks and ordinary people.
If you are not a practitioner, you will never understand the mentality of a practitioner, let alone why you are so persistent.
Just because the way of heaven is lofty and people's hearts are confused, the higher the practitioner's strength is improved, the deeper this understanding will be.
Now that the fog has been seen through, who is willing to deceive themselves and others and continue to live in shackles and live in confusion?
Only by constantly seeking for transcendence, even if the body dies and the soul disappears, there will still be no regrets.
"Everything you say is actually your thoughts, which can also be said to be the thoughts of mortals.
Because you think with ordinary people's thinking, you will feel that practitioners are so weird and stubborn, so stupid and incredible.
If you keep thinking this way, you will never get answers to the questions that confuse you.
So if it is possible, you might as well give it a try and think about the problem as a practitioner."
Tang Zhen put down the empty wine bottle and said to the woman in front of him.
"hehe……"
The woman smiled, with a touch of sarcasm on her lips, which was obviously directed at Tang Zhen's suggestion just now.
In her heart, she clearly has a lot of disdain for practitioners, so how could she try to practice?
"Sir, are you kidding me?"
The sister looked at Tang Zhen and asked in a slightly mocking tone.
"Whatever you think, I'm just making a suggestion. If you really want to find the answer you want, why not give it a try?"
"Hehe, hahaha..."
The sister laughed unbridled, drank the last glass of wine, and then snatched a bottle of wine from her sister's hand.
"Have a good time drinking today, and you don't have to pay for your drink."
My sister said without looking back, then she held the wine bottle in her hand and walked toward the pavilion by the lake in front of her.
Looking at her back, she seemed a little lonely and desolate.
"Don't mind, sir. My sister is not like this normally. She just remembered something sad today, so she was so rude."
My sister apologized to Tang Zhen. Since we were open for business, we shouldn't be so rude to the guests.
"It doesn't matter."
Tang Zhen said with a smile, how could he care about such a thing.
But the sister sat down, filled Tang Zhen's wine, and then continued: "My sister is actually very pitiful. She fell in love with a monk, but he only wanted to seek enlightenment and didn't want to involve the love between children.
My sister didn't give up, she just waited silently for decades.
When the monk was finally moved and realized that our residents of the spiritual realm were not ordinary mortals, he finally made a promise to my sister.
When my strength reaches another level, I will marry my sister and then settle here in Ziguang Xu.
When he came back, he got his wish and finally got married to my sister as promised.
But when they were about to get married, the monk entered Ziguang Ruins again, but never came out again.
My sister has been waiting for decades, her tears are almost dry, but she has never come back..."
Tang Zhen remained silent as he listened to his sister's narration. He had actually already guessed that what his sister had told before was his own story.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is actually a good thing.
The natives of Ziguangxu who will never die can stay together with the monks and stay together for a long time.
Instead of worrying like the outside world, time will make lovers grow old and eventually die in their arms.
