Chapter 120: It's All Other People's Suffering (Part 2)
I don’t know whether it was because it was too comfortable to be touched by Shanshan’s little hands, or because I faintly heard the senior brother in the courtyard saying that he would take over the old scalper’s position and pull a cart for an old man in the future. In short, the big black horse by the Wenshui River suddenly became
He stiffened up and stuck his limbs among the gravel, turning into a Trojan horse.
Ning Que didn't pay attention to the movement of the fool. He just stared at his senior brother's eyes, waiting for an answer with expectant curiosity, even if it was a guessed answer. For this Juantian, he came from Yanbei Frontier Fortress
Along the way, I have experienced many hardships and even the threat of death. It is really difficult to accept that everyone will be scattered after a random fight, and no one will mention the whereabouts of Juan Tian again.
The elder brother thought for a while and then said with a smile: "Since the great priest Tianyu said that heaven will appear in the wilderness, I think Ye Su will believe it, and Tang Ye will not doubt it. As for why everyone is staring at the iron box... probably
It's because Xiahou felt the energy in the iron box
He firmly believed that the sky was in the box. He paid such a high price and determination for this volume of sky. He would never make a mistake in such an important judgment. Therefore, Ye Su and Tang also believed that the sky was in the box. It is said that there was a moment at that time.
, I almost believed it myself.”
"What exactly did Xia Hou feel that made him regard Master Liansheng's ashes as heaven?" Ning Que frowned slightly and said, "I can guess that there is a relationship between him and Liansheng. What is the relationship?"
The senior brother said: "Xiahou is Liansheng's disciple. Now it seems that you have another adventure at the Demon Sect Mountain Gate. After thinking about it, you also know what kind of person that senior Liansheng is. Xiahou betrayed the Demon Sect. I am afraid that he will be afraid every night.
The lotus comes back to life to cause trouble for him, this is the so-called inner demon."
Ning Que was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked with emotion: "Is there anything you don't know, senior brother?"
"Of course there are many more. Even the Master admits that there are still many things that he has not yet fully understood, let alone those of us who are disciples? Junior brother, you must know that there are no people in the world who are born with knowledge."
Speaking of this section, the senior brother was suddenly startled, looked at his face and laughed.
Ning Que didn't notice the information contained in his senior brother's expression, and said distressedly: "Senior brother, why do I feel that the topic seems to have been diverted to the South China Sea by you? Can you please tell me where the Juantian might be without interrupting?"
…
…
Beside the warm fire in the bitter cold wasteland, the senior brother and the junior brother in the academy had their first long conversation with each other. In Ning Que's future memories, this long conversation was warm and calm, without any sense of strangeness like the first meeting.
, it went very smoothly, but in fact it was very unsatisfactory. Because the senior brother's rhythm was too slow, it seemed that he had to think for a long time before speaking out, making sure that there were no mistakes or misunderstandings before he said it, and
This hypnotic rhythm is wonderfully easy to divert the topic to other places.
Ning Que asked about the whereabouts of Tianming's scroll, but within a short time, he was reporting to his senior brother his whereabouts after leaving Chang'an and coming to the wasteland. From the college students in the Bishui Camp to the girl from the River Country by the Wen River
, from the attack of horse thieves controlled by Xiahou
He used his power to bully others with his generosity in the royal court, from killing Lin Ling, the master of the northeastern frontier army at night, to sniping Prince Longqing with an arrow, and then having a bloody battle with Dao Chi, until he entered the Demon Sect Mountain Gate and met the remains of his junior uncle.
The mottled sword marks and the ghost-like old monk among the bones and corpses.
During the previous narration process, the senior brother always maintained a calm expression. Even when he heard about the awe-inspiring sword intention left by his junior uncle in the world, he just sighed with emotion. He only heard that Ning Que met the living person in the Demon Sect Mountain Gate.
Master Liansheng, his expression changed slightly.
The senior brother looked at Ning Que and said sincerely: "So the cage formation created by my junior uncle with sword intent is so powerful? Even the teacher doesn't know that senior Liansheng is still alive. If I know this, I absolutely dare not let him
You entered the mountain gate alone. I wanted you to practice hard, but I didn't expect that you would encounter so many dangers. Junior brother, I'm really sorry."
Until this moment, Ning Que finally confirmed that this trip to the wasteland was arranged by the hospital. As expected, the master and senior brother had been paying attention to him secretly, but it was obvious that the unmasked teacher who seemed to be omnipotent and omniscient and the unmasked teacher
The eldest brother who was so powerful by the fire that no one dared to challenge him didn't really know everything. At least they didn't know that there was a Master Liansheng hidden in the Demon Sect's mountain gate who could turn into ashes and bring out the demons in Xiahou's heart.
Thinking of the dangerous encounter beside the mountain of corpses, and thinking of the ghostly old monk who lowered his head to gnaw the girl's flesh and blood, Ning Que couldn't help but burst into tears, and said with a mixture of grief and anger: "Elder brother, you are so irresponsible.
"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was just picking up those things in the snow peak. I really didn't expect it."
The senior brother lowered his head in shame, took out four dark iron arrows from nowhere in his right hand and handed them over.
Ning Que took the four iron arrows, stroked the fine and complicated runes with his fingers, and took a breath of shock.
After attaining enlightenment and breakthrough at the Daming Lake, in order to kill Prince Longqing and deal with the Taoist idiot Ye Hongyu, he shot a total of four Yuanshisan arrows. The four arrows may have penetrated Prince Longqing's chest and abdomen and then penetrated deep into the snow cliff rock mass.
, or brushed against Ye Hongyu's shoulder and disappeared into the clouds. He originally thought that he would never be able to find them again in this life. Thinking of the hard work of the brothers and sisters in the back of the courtyard, he felt very regretful. Unexpectedly, now they are all back in his hands!
Senior brother...how on earth did he determine where these four talisman arrows landed, and how did he pick them up?
"This arrow is good. How many junior brothers in the back mountain contributed?" the senior brother asked, looking at the talisman arrow in his hand.
"All the senior brothers and sisters have contributed." Ning Que thought that the guys who played the piano, played chess and watched flowers also came to the lakeside to cheer for him. Is this considered a contribution?
The elder brother felt a little regretful and said: "It's a pity that I wasn't there at the time, or maybe the arrow could be better."
Ning Que, who always beat snakes and followed them with sticks, moved his position next to his senior brother, with a sincere expression on his face, and said seriously: "Then let's try again after we return to Chang'an?"
The senior brother was stunned for a moment, and then said honestly: "Okay."
Ning Que knew that his elder brother must have noticed his intentions, but he did not expose it, or even tease him, so he accepted it like this. Faced with such a sincere attitude, he unexpectedly felt a little shy.
"Speaking of which, that crazy little girl is really nice to you."
"Elder brother, why are you talking about this?"
"You have to thank the person."
"knew."
The senior brother used a branch to dig out a few sweet potatoes from the ashes under the fire and said, "Eat them, they are very fragrant. Leave these two for the crazy little girl and your big black horse. Don't touch them."
Ning Que reached out to touch the sweet potatoes and almost got burned. He was a little angry and said, "It's okay to leave one for Shanshan. How can that stupid beast like the big black horse have the right to eat it?"
The eldest brother was a little uncomfortable with what he said. He thought whether it was the big ox raised by the master or the big white goose raised by Jun Mo, they usually ate with everyone, but why couldn't the big black horse raised by the younger brother do the same?
He shook his head and said: "Speaking of which, when I first entered the mountains as a child, I refused to eat meat because I always felt that everything had spirits. Later, I was beaten by the teacher with a stick and saw scalpers eating meat, so I was twisted...
…”
Ning Que was listening to his senior brother's rambling memories while fighting with the hot sweet potato. He suddenly came back to his senses, raised his head and yelled angrily: "Senior brother, why did you change the topic again?"
The senior brother looked at him blankly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"If Xiahou mistakenly thought that the iron box was the sky because of Liansheng, what about Tang and Ye Su?"
"Tang didn't come here for heaven. He wanted to kill Xiahou and clear the door for the Demon Sect."
"Where's the one named Ye Su?" Ning Que asked.
The eldest brother scratched his head and said tentatively with some uncertainty: "He seems to be here for me?"
Ning Que was silent for a moment and then shook his head and said: "This matter is not that simple. The Great Priest Tianyu said that the scroll will appear at the gate of Mozong Mountain, on the north bank of Hulan Sea. Since these outsiders are here, they will inevitably
If he believes in the words of the God of Heaven, what good will it do to him and the temple if the great priest of Heaven makes such an untrue oracle?"
He looked up at his senior brother and said, "Then where is Juan Tian?
The senior brother looked at him in silence for a long time, and then asked: "Do you really want to know?"
Ning Que said: "Everyone in the world wants to know."
The senior brother said: "But even if you know it, what help will it be to you?"
Ning Que stared and said seriously: "Brother, do you know curiosity can kill a cat?"
The senior brother shook his head and said seriously: "I really don't know about this."
Then he looked up at the gray winter wasteland sky and said curiously: "Actually, I have never understood why the Oracle of Heaven issued that oracle. Now that I think about it, could it be that the addition of a curious junior brother is some kind of chance?"
After saying this, he took out the old roll from his waist and handed it to Ning Que.
Ning Que took the old scroll in a daze, vaguely understanding something, but completely unable to believe his own judgment.
He looked down at the old, unremarkable cover in his hand. After being silent for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to turn the first page. His fingers, trembling with nervousness and excitement, turned the page.
It is very similar to the sound of water that once sounded by the pool on the mountainside of Xuefeng Mountain.
The world doesn't know much about Senior Brother.
They only know that the student wearing an old coat and worn shoes, no matter how much dust is stained on his body, always makes people feel extremely clean. They only know that the student is calm and happy, loves to hang out by the mountains, streams and pools, and always has a water ladle tied around his waist.
When he is thirsty, he drinks a ladle of water. He always holds a scroll in his hand and reads it often.
No one knows that the scroll in the student's hand is the sky.
The Tianming scroll has been lost in the wilderness for countless years and has never appeared.
…
…
It was quiet for a long time by the fire.
In fact, Ning Que didn't dare to read the old volume seriously at all, because he didn't know what would happen after reading it.
After a long time, he raised his head with difficulty and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Have you always had this scroll in your hand?"
The eldest brother admitted honestly: "After Guanyun broke through the realm at the end of that year, the teacher gave it to me to keep for safekeeping."
Ning Que took a breath of cold air, and then found that the number of times he had taken a breath of cold air today seemed to be more than the past ten years combined. He couldn't help but sigh and said: "No wonder senior brother lamented Xiahou's suffering earlier.
"
The seven clear scrolls in the sky have always been in the hands of the senior brother in the academy, but no one in the world knows about it. Countless people have greed and hatred for it, fighting for it to the death, and even giving up everything in the first half of their lives like Xia Hou.
Why does this really happen?
Life is so hard.
Fortunately, Ning Que is now the junior fellow student in the courtyard.
For Yuan, all the misfortunes in life are usually the misfortunes of others.
