Chapter 13: Running to the Moon
The after-effects of this battle are very serious. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Zhuo Yue was in a coma for three whole days, and then rested for a whole month before he could cultivate. During this period, I was born to see her often, and I saw that Zhuo Yue couldn't even speak from the beginning, and slowly was able to walk, and I was happy for her from the bottom of my heart. As for Xuanyuan Yao's situation, hehe, I wish she had some kind of illness to be happy!
Another thing worth being happy is that as the champion of this big competition, Zhuo Yue has officially become an inner disciple, and her residence has also changed. From the original humble hut to a spacious, clean and bright room, Jianmen also specially sent a disciple to take care of the weak Zhuo Yue during this time.
Such conditions make the heart a little unbalanced, you say that I am a personal disciple of the head of the family, I sleep in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion every day, there is nothing but a bed, I feel congested when I think about it.
Tonight, for some reason, the moon is exceptionally bright and round. Like a huge jade plate, hanging high in the air, the clear light sprinkled on the world, as if a layer of white jade was spread on the ground, and the whole world has a clear beauty. It's intoxicating, it's confusing.
Above the roof, two small figures were sitting upright, wearing stars and moons. From time to time, the sound of insects chirping can be heard around, as if a performer in this dark night, playing a moonlit night song.
The two sat quietly like this, silent for a long time without speaking.
After a long time, Tiansheng slowly opened his mouth: "After today, I'm afraid I won't come to see you." ā
"Why?" Zhuo Yue asked, tilting her head a little puzzled and a little sad.
"This year, I've lost too much time. I want to work harder, meet the master's requirements as soon as possible, and start cultivating as soon as possible. Tiansheng gritted his teeth and said, this sentence seemed to be said to Zhuo Yue, and it seemed to be making up his mind for himself.
"Then can I go to you?" Zhuo Yue knew that it was because of himself that he wasted so much time, but he still hoped that he could have the opportunity to see him, after all, he only had such a friend who was really good to him.
"It's better not to use it, you have to bury yourself deep in the soil before it will bear fruit. During this time, I want to be alone and insist on doing what I should do. Saying that, he looked at Zhuo Yue next to him and said, "You too, you have finally entered the inner door, so you should work harder." As the saying goes, sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. This is true for reading, and even more so for spiritual practice. ā
"Well, I will. Zhuo Yue nodded seriously.
After speaking, the two fell silent again. Seeing that the atmosphere was so deep, he was naturally extremely unaccustomed to it, and half-jokingly: "You have to cultivate hard, and I will rely on you to protect me when the time comes, so you must work extremely hard." ā
"Hmm. Zhuo Yue nodded again. Although he didn't say much, he imprinted every promise of his own in his heart, even if it was a natural half-joke.
"Look, the moon is so beautiful today. Tiansheng suddenly changed the topic and pointed to the moon in the sky.
Zhuo Yue looked up, it was indeed much more beautiful than before, brighter and moving, but there was always a poignancy in the beauty.
"You know, it was said a long, long time ago. There is a woman in the mortal world, her name is Chang'e, Chang'e is extremely beautiful, just like the characters in the painting, but she is kind-hearted. One day, a vision was born, and ten suns appeared in the sky. The Queen Mother of the West sent the descendants of the great gods to the world to save the people from fire and water. Hou Yi came to the world, pulled out the arrow, and shot it for nine days before the world was able to regain its vitality. Hou Yi, who had completed his mission, was supposed to return to the Divine Realm......"
"But you're in love with Chang'e, right?" Zhuo Yue suddenly interjected.
"How do you know?" was a little surprised, this was a story he had seen in a book, and it stands to reason that Zhuo Yue should not know.
"Normal people will know when they hear it, okay?" Zhuo Yue said, rolling her eyes.
"Yes, Hou Yi and Chang'e did fall in love, but there are still stories you don't know later. ā
"What happened next?" Zhuo Yue wondered.
Tiansheng continued: "The descendants of love and Chang'e live very happily, but as time goes by, a fatal problem gradually becomes apparent. Descendants are gods, Chang'e is a human, and after decades, Chang'e begins to grow old, her voice is no longer as sweet as it was at the beginning, her smooth skin begins to be full of wrinkles, and her body begins to be rickety. Chang'e began to fear that Hou Yi, who was still young and handsome, would no longer love herself and would dislike herself who was no longer beautiful. Although Hou Yi is as good to Chang'e as ever, women are like this, once they start to doubt, there will be no end. So one day, Chang'e broke out, and she asked her descendants if they still loved her, although Houyi kept assuring her, Chang'e never believed it. In the end, Hou Yi said to Chang'e that it would only take three days, and after three days, Chang'e would be restored to her former beauty, so Hou Yi walked out of the house. Three days later, a stranger knocked on Chang'e's door and gave her a purple glowing elixir. After Chang'e ate it, she really regained her former beauty and became young and moving. But since then, she has waited day after day, year after year, but she has never seen Hou Yi again. ā
"Where did Hou Yi go, why didn't he go to see Chang'e?" Hearing this, Zhuo Yue felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she could already predict that this was a sad story.
"Hou Yi went to see the Queen Mother of the West and asked for an elixir that can rejuvenate people and become immortals. But because people and gods are not allowed to fall in love, Hou Yi has been forbidden to take half a step out of the divine realm since then, so he can't return to the mortal world to see Chang'e again. ā
"Why can't people and gods fall in love?" Zhuo Yue felt puzzled, and even more sad, why can't people who love each other be happy together?
"I don't know. And can you let me finish the story?" Seeing the tears in Zhuo Yue's eyes, he didn't expect that a casually told story would move such a strong Zhuo Yue.
"This story isn't over yet, is it?" asked Zhuo Yue, stretching her neck happily, hoping that the story would have a happy ending.
Tiansheng glared at Zhuo Yue fiercely, and Zhuo Yue immediately shrank his neck.
Tiansheng continued to speak: "Chang'e didn't know about the situation of the descendants, and after waiting for a long time, the flowers bloomed, and the dynasty changed. But Hou Yi still didn't come back after all. Finally one day, Chang'e understood that it was because of her own unreasonable trouble, and Hou Yi would never come back. In order to punish herself, Chang'e flew to the lonely and cold moon, and never left the moon for half a step, bearing the loneliness of eternal life. ā
"It's so pitiful, people who love each other can't stay together in the end. Is Chang'e still on the moon?"
"I don't know, I only know from books, I don't even know if this legend is true or not. Tiansheng shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
"I really want to know, is Chang'e on the moon, did she meet her descendants at the end?" Zhuo Yue was completely caught up in the story at this time, and wanted to urgently confirm this poignant story.
"You will cultivate to the Immortal Realm in the future, can you go and see it?" said Tiansheng with a smile.
"Well, I will. Zhuo Yue nodded seriously.
I didn't know it by nature, because of a joke of my own, Zhuo Yue worked hard for many years. I wouldn't have thought that one day, Zhuo Yue would really stand on the moon, what kind of mood would it be? Of course, this is all for later.
"Therefore, people have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, so let's meet again in ten years. Tiansheng suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand, and said heroically.
Zhuo Yue seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, and also stretched out her hand to hold her natural hand, and agreed: "Born, see you again in ten years." ā
"Ahh......h ā
Zhuo Yue, who looked helpless, jumped down from the roof and hugged him with one hand before he landed on the ground.
"Thankfully, fortunately. Tiansheng, who was in Zhuo Yue's arms, sneered, glad that he didn't fall directly to the ground.
At this time, the moon in the sky still glows white, and the whole world is quiet and beautiful. In the moonlight, a girl hugs a boy, and the whole scene is like a painting, and it freezes.
