The moment he left the city, looking at the familiar Bodhi Mountain, Luo Changfeng suddenly remembered the scene when he went up the mountain to take the entrance exam for the academy ten years ago.

The lively Bodhi Mountain, the new but old academy can be faintly seen on the mountain, the stalls on both sides of the foot of the mountain, and the ten sons and comrades around him.

Everything is so familiar.

It's like yesterday.

Even the renovated hiking trail has achieved the same appearance as it used to be, and it is hard to imagine how much effort the senior brother spent to recreate the world for the academy.

......

Ying Tian led Luo Changfeng and the others to the gate of the academy, and entered the courtyard under the curious eyes of those young students and their families.

Naturally, they are somewhat conspicuous.

Especially after being recognized as Luo Changfeng's identity, there was an uproar in front of the academy.

As early as when the academy was widely recruited all over the world, some people began to speculate whether Luo Changfeng, the city lord of Fengxue Silver City, would return to the academy to teach.

In the past ten years, the cultivation of the sword of Luo Changfeng, who is famous in Yincheng, has long been the consensus of the world.

Half a year ago, the consummation of the Sword Club also proved his influence and appeal to the world. If he can return to teaching at the college, it will definitely be a blessing for the younger generation in the world.

Now, in front of the academy, they saw Luo Changfeng and his ten sons all returning, which made them even more determined to enter the academy to practice.

......

After entering the academy, Ying Tian took Li Xingyun, Jiang Manlou and the others and walked straight towards the six-character gate assessment place in the outer courtyard. An Hongdou and Yuzhongtang were still in the Tianxiang Pavilion and had never climbed the mountain, leaving Luo Changfeng alone along the silent path and finding the purple bamboo forest according to the appearance in his memory.

There are rafts by the lake.

Brand new bamboo raft.

Luo Changfeng skillfully untied the knot, took a raft across a line of sky, and then the wind and snow blew on his face.

In the wind and snow that gradually became charming, he saw two figures on the top of the snow-capped mountain behind the courtyard from a distance. One of them is undoubtedly a senior brother, while the other looks a little old.

At first, he wasn't sure who the man was. But as it approached, he could feel the faint knife intent mixed in the wind and snow of the Forgetful River, and Luo Changfeng knew that it was the predecessor of the Heavenly Sword Cutting a Thousand Tribulations.

I couldn't help but be curious.

At the beginning, after the wind and snow silver city parted, it is reported that the heavenly sword retreated to the saint and did not ask about the world. Not long ago, I heard that this sword dao senior would be invited to serve as the guest secretary of the academy's Xingzi Gate, Luo Changfeng hesitated, thinking to himself, could it be that the heavenly sword predecessor had entered the divine realm?

Otherwise, why would you leave the border without permission?

Take things as they come.

Luo Changfeng put his distracting thoughts behind him and went up the snowy mountain.

There are four tombstones on the snow roof, all of which were erected by Luo Changfeng himself. There was a layer of crystal ice on the tombstone, and it looked like it should have been cleaned by the senior brother not long ago.

Luo Changfeng stood behind Huang Fuyi and the Heavenly Dao, thought for a while, and gave a salute to the seniors of the Broken Thousand Tribulations: "Seniors." ”

Then there was an interval of four breaths, and he used the time of these four breaths to convince himself, so he said, "Senior brother." ”

There are many immutable facts in the world.

When Luo Changfeng was dying, it was a fact that the senior brother took the thirty-six character lotus life recipe from him and fell into the well.

But before the academy collapsed, it was also a fact that the senior brother lifted the courtyard knife for him to shelter him from the wind and rain.

After Luo Changfeng recast his state of mind and woke up, he thought about the scene when he faced his senior brother countless times, even now, he still didn't know what to do right.

Should I hold a grudge against my brother?

Compared to the favor he owes, even if the senior brother really cut off the head on his neck with a knife, he can't pay off that debt, how dare he hold a grudge?

But he is not a saint after all.

Kindness and resentment are never something that can cancel each other out.

For him, Senior Brother is special after all.

He can accept that a wicked person he has never met is bent on killing him, but he can't accept the slightest reproach from his senior brother who respects him like a father, let alone betrayal.

This is his affection for his senior brother.

He hoped that the knowledge that his senior brother had left to him would be perfect and without any flaws. Once a crack appears, it will never be erased and healed.

So he's ambivalent.

Before we think clearly about how to deal with this contradiction, we can only do as we please.

......

The gaze of the Heavenly Sword Breaking a Thousand Tribulations was withdrawn from the tombstone of the old Dao Kui in the library building, and he sighed in his heart.

originally thought that after Fengxue Yincheng had seen the butcher's knife with his own eyes, he could stop his heart and shut himself up. But when he actually went into retreat, he realized that the knot in his heart that had been bothering him was not here.

He has never been able to let go of a piece of the past, about the past of smokers.

It can be said that no one in the world knows the smoker better than him, and no one knows him better than the smoker. However, the fate of the Heavenly Sword and the Sword Boss of the Broken Family in the past dynasties made him feel ashamed all the time, and he couldn't let go of the guilt of the Broken Smoker.

Perhaps this is the real reason why the Heavenly Sword of the Broken Family has not been able to enter the Holy Order.

He thought of the two children who had entered the forbidden land of Daoshan before leaving the broken house, and he felt a pang of regret in his heart.

He turned around and went down the snowy mountain, walked out of the Forgetful River and walked towards the library.

From now on, the Heavenly Sword Breaking a Thousand Tribulations will be an ordinary gentleman in the library of the academy, just like the old sword thief before his death.

......

There are only two left, Luo Changfeng and his senior brother.

The two stood on the top of the snowy mountain behind the courtyard, one after the other, and did not speak for a long time, and even the unscrupulous wind and snow could not break the frozen atmosphere.

Luo Changfeng looked at the back of his senior brother, to be precise, it should be the back of Liaoyuan Sword Willow Burning Sky, he was very confused, he didn't know what he was thinking, let alone what his senior brother was thinking.

They stood straight, and after a long time, the wind and snow were falling.

Huang Fu Yi, who was standing with his hands in his hands, looked at the tombstone of the Wuxiang Dao Sect, and finally spoke: "The teacher once told me a past story about how he took the butcher knife from the ancestor and how he completely controlled it without being controlled by the demonic nature. ”

As soon as Huangfu Yi opened his mouth, it made Luo Changfeng's heart ripple.

He looked at his brother in surprise.

As if he had guessed some possibility, he frowned slightly, and then there were tears in those eyes.

He heard a story.

A teacher talks about his brother, and the brother tells a story about himself.

That story is a long, long time ago, and when Luo Changfeng heard it, it was as if it happened yesterday, and it was an immersive experience.

Because this story made him completely understand the two ways to get rid of the demonic nature of the butcher knife.

The first is to practice Buddhism.

Cultivate the Dharma that is as powerful as the demonic nature of the butcher's knife, and then learn from the foot monk who became a Buddha on the spot, and use the Buddha nature to overcome the demonic nature.

The second is to recast the state of mind.

Find the weakness of your own state of mind that is easy to be controlled by the demonic nature of the butcher's knife, and strive to break your heart, break and stand up, in order to truly become the master of the butcher's knife.

Compared with the two, the teacher thinks that it is not realistic to go to Lingshan to cultivate Buddhism.

After all, the butcher's knife is extremely demonic, and if you want to cultivate the same Dharma, how can it take thousands of years? The most important point is that the teacher can't be a monk with the four major emptiness, so he chooses the second way.

Recast the state of mind.

Just like what Luo Changfeng has experienced in half a year.
