Chapter 244: Old Things (1)
Rain Bamboo Pavilion, drizzle, in the swamp near the west, the war spirit was ignited by a force, boiling, and wandering around this deserted bamboo pavilion from time to time, making this place bewitching and gloomy.
It was late at night, but there was still a light in the house, and as a door opened, the light spread, illuminating the courtyard very brightly.
"Master, will he really come?" At the stone table, dressed in black, carrying a pot of spirits, asked while pouring wine for his own master, Tuke, at the table.
"Heart!" Tuk said patiently as he tasted the spirits, which he seemed to enjoy more than a sip, "You've been with me for ten years!"
"Yes!" Jing Xin nodded respectfully, "Master's kindness to the disciple, even if the disciple is broken, he can't repay it!"
"What's the point of being shattered?" Tuke sighed, looked at the wandering souls outside the courtyard, with a trace of dazedness in his eyes, and said lightly, "At the moment, this catastrophe may kill many people! Even I dare not say that it is an exception! To be honest, it is indeed difficult for you for me to let you follow him!"
"Master!" Meditation seemed to muster up his courage and asked, "The disciple has something that I don't know, what does that fate have to do with you?
"He!" Tuke smiled and asked rhetorically, "He is the head of Qingcheng Mountain, and I am the elder of Qingcheng Mountain, what do you think should be the relationship?"
Meditation looked at the master, was silent for a moment, and said silently, "Ten years have passed, and the disciple and you can get along day and night, but I have never heard you mention his name, if it is just the head of the family, why don't you say anything!"
"Knowing too much won't do you any good!" Tuke sighed and said, "Maybe one day, he'll take the initiative to tell you!"
"Uncle Beichen once mentioned that you had a disciple before me, could it be ......" Eager to know the truth, he couldn't help but say the guess in his heart, but he was greeted by Tuke's cold gaze, and his words were forcibly swallowed back.
The cold wind was blowing, in the biting and cold, it looked so gloomy, and the master's posture was something that a man had never seen before, which also made him more determined in his thoughts.
In the void, a ball of blue light flickered, and the surrounding souls quickly avoided it, allowing the blue light to fall into the courtyard, transforming in front of Tuke, forming a slender figure.
"You're still here!" Tuke's voice was a little erratic, as he sat on the stone bench, leaning against the stone table, slowly savoring the glass of spirits.
"Yes, I'm here!" the man's voice was also very faint, and his starry eyes glanced at the meditation heart, and he didn't say much.
"His name is Meditation, and he's my disciple!" Tuke was still sipping the wine, as if telling a very ordinary thing, and he didn't even look at the person in front of him.
"The Meditation Heart has seen the Venerable!" Although the Meditation Heart was not surprised, he did not want to lose his manners in front of the master, so he still bowed to the extinction of the fate.
Yuan Xuan's eyes were slightly touched, and he looked at the heart deeply, and after a long time, he silently praised: "Excellent qualifications, really a talent, much stronger than the prodigal kid back then, your vision is good!"
"Wandering is not necessarily bad, in troubled times, if you don't break through the rules, how can you do something!" Tuke turned around and said to Meditation, "You go back first! Wait for me at the altar tomorrow!"
"Yes, disciple retire!" He was helpless, he knew very well in his heart that no matter how much he wanted to stay, the master would not agree. I had to walk out the door.
"Thank you for the cold land!" Before he left, the voice of fate came from his ears, and he turned his head with a coldness in his eyes, and responded, "You're welcome!"
The witch light flickered, and the figure of the Soul Heart disappeared into the distance.
"Actually, you don't have to thank him!" said Tuke, gesturing to a stone bench across from him, "Sit down!"
Yuan Xuan did not sit down, but respectfully shouted, "Master!"
"I haven't called it that before, so I don't have to call it in the future!" Tuke poured a glass of wine, pushed it to the table of Yuan Xuan, raised his head, and took away a sharpness in his eyes, "Now that you are the Supreme of the Central Plains and the head of Qingcheng Mountain, I should also listen to you." !”
"Is Master serious?" Yuan Xuan shook his head, "A teacher for one day, a teacher for life, no matter what you think, in the hearts of your disciples, you will always be my master!"
"At least here, I'm not!" Tuke asked, not dwelling too much on the subject, "You turn back, but you've figured it out?"
"I still can't make up my mind!" Yuan Xuan's face was joyless and carefree, and he said lightly: "One wrong step, one wrong step, the slightest carelessness, I will definitely lose the whole game!"
"It's normal for you to have concerns!" said Tuke, "but if you make it back, the benefits will be enormous!
What!"
"I don't trust Simon!" said bluntly, "What he said was ostensibly for the sake of righteousness, and it seemed reasonable, but in my heart I told myself that this person had hidden his purpose very deeply, and what he wanted to do behind this catastrophe was very unsettling!"
"Actually, I don't trust him either!" Tuke drank another glass of wine and said slowly, "For many years, I have not let me see this person clearly, and now working together is a catastrophe, but it is also a last resort! Just like you, it is clear that it is doomed, but you have to seek a determination!"
"Master really saw everything very thoroughly!" Yuan Xuan smiled, sat down, and poured a full cup for Tuke himself.
"Don't you drink?" Tuke asked with a frown, seeing that he didn't have any intention of drinking with him.
"Since I was a child living in the Central Plains, I really can't get used to drinking this wild spirit!" Yuan Xuan picked up his wine glass, stared at Tuke and said, "But if the master wants to drink, the apprentice will definitely sacrifice his life to accompany him!"
Tuke and Yuan Xuan looked at each other for a long time, then suddenly laughed, pointed at Yuan Xuan and said: "Stinky boy, the calculation is on my head, it's not because I taught it!"
"Do you recognize me as an apprentice again?" Yuan Xuan also smiled, touched a glass with Tuke, and said, "It's a pity, my apprentice has no blessings, and in the end I can't inherit your mantle!"
"What, are you blaming me again?" Tuke's face had a dark smile on his face, and he said slowly, "Actually, you had a good chance back then! It's only that the Central Plains was too comfortable at that time, and there were thousands of greens in Qingcheng Mountain, so there would be no crisis, and everything I learned in my life was all for killing, if it is really passed on to you, it will inevitably affect your heart, and I am afraid that it will not be you who appear here at this time!"
"Master, you're laughing! I don't mean that! I will accept any decision you make unconditionally!" Yuan Xuan nodded, and said, "Senior Brother Mingxin, with outstanding talents, no one can match, coupled with his arrogant personality, he is indeed the best candidate to inherit you!"
"You're wrong!" Tuke was a little helpless, "It's arrogant, but it's actually extreme, this kind of character is easy to generate obsessions, and it is taken advantage of by demons, if he makes a big mistake because of this, I'm afraid it's harder to turn back than to ascend to the sky!"
"Then what can Master do?" asked Yuan Xuan.
Tuke raised his head, his old face turned bright, and he said faintly: "I want him to follow you into the Witch God Tomb together!"
"Master!" Yuan Xuan sighed, "As far as I know, the Witch God Tomb is a mortal situation, you have accepted these two disciples in your life, is it possible that you want these two disciples to be damaged in it?"
"If the catastrophe is not broken, the mountains and rivers are destroyed, how can we talk about survival?" Tuke was very depressed, took another drink, and said, "The current calm is just the moment before the storm, you must have sensed it when you cultivate to such a realm, this Wushan, no one can get out now!"
"I can feel it, but I can't understand it!" "With my strength, I can even protect myself, but I really want to ask, why?
"I don't know!" Tuke shook his head at first, then put down his glass, looked at the west, and responded, "There is a saying that a long time ago, the witch god and Tongyou were hostile to each other, and the reason is no longer important, but the result is that Tongyou won, so there is the current Wushan!"
"The existence of Wushan is to guard the tomb of the witch god, for thousands of years, it has always been like this!" Tuke frowned, and said slowly, "It is rumored that the soul of the witch god is hidden in the tomb of the witch god, and he is unwilling, and every hundred years, he uses the wild flag to launch a beast robbery to retaliate!"
"Do you believe this kind of rumor, Master?" Yuan Xuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the west, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tuke's gaze looked away at the fate of the extinction, and after a moment, he said word by word: "Half believe, half doubt!"
"The history of the victor often adds some falsehoods to confuse the people, and I only believe half of it!" "Yuan Xuan nodded first, and then shook his head, "Just now I fought with the beasts, and I can clearly feel a hatred that seeps into the bone marrow, maybe it is this power that supports them!"
"Your experience just now is just the tip of the iceberg, and the situation inside the tomb is completely different, not only are there more terrifying existences in it, but there are also various types of mechanisms!" Tuke sighed, "Actually, in the past ten years, I have only been guarding the periphery, and I have never really entered the ancient tomb! If you want to know more, you can ask Hun Tuo! He is the only person who walked out of there alive!"
"Ghost eyes, this person!" Yuan Xuan shook his head, "It's not a good type, if you want him to help me sincerely, I'm afraid I will have to pay a big price!"
"They are all poor people! Such a person, who has experienced life and death, is detached from life and death, and will inevitably act in an extreme way!" Tuke's eyes were bright, staring at Yuan Xuan and said, "You want him to help you, go to Simon! Maybe you can give it a try!"
Yuan Xuan frowned, and always felt that under the master's gaze, his inner thoughts seemed to be pierced.
"Master knows what I want to do?" asked Yuan Shu rhetorically.
"Hehe!" Simon smiled, patted Yuan Xuan's shoulder, and said faintly in his ear, "Disciple Mo Ruoshi, although you are smart, you can't think of others too stupidly!
Yuan Xuan's face changed greatly, and in this cold weather, a layer of cold sweat still broke out, and he stood in place for a long time before he said: "Master teaches, disciples must remember!"
"On the altar of tomorrow's sacrifice, there are some things that you may not want to see!" Tuke turned his back to Yuan Xuan, and his voice was extremely cold, "I hope you can be cautious! After all, this is not Qingcheng Mountain!"
There was no response, Tuke was already gone, and he was left alone in the huge pavilion, and after a moment of silence, he picked up the pot of liquor and drank it violently.
"What a Heavenly Machine!" "Yuan Xuan slammed the wine jug to the ground, his eyes flashing with angry flames, "Heavenly Machine, hehe, deduce the Heavenly Machine, omniscient, omniscient, hehe.. Heavenly Machine...!"
