That night, Kaifeng informed Xue Qi about the rebellion against the beast tide, but Xue Qi also said that he had never heard of it.

"The matter of going against the tide of beasts should be a high secret on the island, and its related texts may be hidden in the Secret Pavilion, and I don't know about it. ”

The expression on Xue Qi's face condensed slightly, "But your intuition is not without reason, there is indeed something suspicious about this matter." ”

"I can't say exactly what the suspicion is. ”

Kai Feng held his chin in his hand and closed his beautiful eyes.

"How can no one know about such a big thing in eight hundred years?"

"Since it is such a major matter related to the life and death of Qiyuan Island, why don't you immediately inform all the islanders and mobilize the combat strength of the whole island?

"Maybe I don't want to cause panic, the mortals on the island are the majority after all. ”

Xue Qi thought for a moment and gave an explanation.

Kaifeng didn't answer again, and this reason was barely explained.

Sha Li lay on the bed, staring at the bright moon outside the screen window.

Although there are two suns in the daytime, the bright moon at night is larger than the two suns combined. If it is a few points bigger, ordinary people may not dare to look up at the moon, and there will be an invisible sense of oppression that goes straight to the soul.

Tonight is the full moon, and the bright moon is surrounded by a brilliant wind circle, and the whole night sky becomes beautiful.

"Shali, are you sleeping?"

The familiar sounds of heaven sounded outside the window.

"Kaifeng, come in, what's the matter?"

Sari quickly put on his cheongsam.

"Can you ...... Can you come out for a moment?"

"Oh, I'll do it right away. ”

"Crunch!"

The door opened, and a stunning scene that Sha Li would never forget in his life came into view.

Ice blue hair, light blue gauze skirt, white jade-like delicate snow skin, and a slender and delicate body of the beginning scale. On the delicate white jade feet, the delicate toes bloom like snow lotus. Bathed in the bright moonlight, the girl in front of her was flowing with a faint blue glow from her hair to her delicate body.

The black and white eyes are as if there are thousands of morning stars shining. The moon gave her a mysterious light, but she overshadowed the moonlight.

At this time, Sha Li seemed to sink into an eternal dream, and a name appeared in his heart, Moon Palace Fairy. That's right, it must be a dream.

"Let's go and admire the moon. ”

The corners of the mouth are gently raised, and the shallow pear vortex is even more gentle and mysterious under the moonlight. Sha Li didn't hear what the girl was saying, and the slippery soft wattle was already attached to the back of his hand.

"Good. ”

The arc-shaped promenade is full of green grapes, and long vines hang down like a waterfall. On a hanging chair woven of long rattan, a pair of boys and girls sat next to each other, raising their heads to the moon, speechless for a long time.

Triumph

"Huh?"

"You're like that wind ring, gentle and dazzling. ”

Sha Li turned his head and stared into Kaifeng's eyes.

"...... Return"

"What else?"

Kaifeng asked with a smile.

"You're still careful, protecting me. ”

Kaifeng stared at Sha Li, and after a long time, turned his face sideways.

"Silly melon!"

Kaifeng's red lips curled slightly, as if he said lightly.

"Triumphant!"

"Huh?"

"From now on, I want to protect you. If you are the moon, I am the wind circle. ”

Kaifeng stared deeply at the dark pupils of the man in front of him. There, she saw only herself, and a determination she had never seen before.

"I'm going to be an island guard, I'm going to be strong. You said that you like Qiyuan Island, where you grew up, very much, and you want to guard it. And I just want to guard you. ”

Kaifeng stared at Sha Li, silent for a long time, and the two just looked at each other. I don't know how long it took, but it was Kaifeng who broke the silence first.

"What a dumbfounder. ”

Kaifeng stood up, his back to Sha Li.

"Tomorrow at three o'clock, you go to the practice room to find me. ”

With that, her blue back disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Sha Li was stunned at first. When he came back to his senses, there was no trace of Kaifeng.

He stretched out his palm, stared at it carefully, and then clenched his fists tightly.

It's the only thing he's really wanted to do since he woke up other than to retrieve his memories.

Retrieving his memories may always be a delusional thought, but Kaifeng is really by his side.

Yes, he wants to be stronger, he wants to protect her, he wants to take care of her, just like she did to herself at that time.

"I see, Kaifeng. ”

Sha Li seemed to respond to the direction where Kaifeng was leaving, as if he was talking to himself.

At the corner of the corridor, a girl with short ice blue hair leaned against the pillar and smiled.

At the end of the day, Yang Qi rises, Yin Qi sinks, and Heaven and Earth intersect, making it the best time of the day to meditate and practice.

According to Kaifeng's words, Yin Zheng had already appeared in the practice room at three moments.

He saw Kai Feng sitting on the futon, his upper body straight, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was sleeping. The backs of a pair of jade hands rested on their knees, and their fingers seemed to be pinched at random.

Sha Li rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had not yet come out of his sleep. He clearly saw that there was a faint layer of light on Kaifeng's blue shirt.

At first, he mistakenly thought it was because of the moonlight, but now the moonlight didn't pour directly on her.

But after a few breaths, the light vanished again, as if it had never existed. After a few breaths, it reappears, faintly, if there is nothing.

Sha Li's eyes were always fixed on Kai Feng, and he didn't want to miss half a point.

Gradually, he found that he didn't seem to feel Kaifeng's existence, but it seemed to be everywhere, but she kept sitting there in his sight.

After about a quarter of an hour, he noticed that Kai Feng's hands were gently flipped, palms pressed against his knees, and his straight upper body felt a lot more relaxed.

Then, Kaifeng slowly opened his eyes. Unlike the morning star shining on weekdays, her eyes at this moment were more ethereal than Sha Li had ever seen.

Her eyes focused on Sha Li, and her starry eyes returned to their usual brilliance.

"You're here. ”

"You let me come, can I be disobedient?"

After Sha Li said this, he seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he had to laugh innocently.

"Silly melon!"

"By the way, Kaifeng, why are you looking for me? Also, you...... What is this doing?"

Sha Li wanted to get out of this somewhat strange atmosphere of dialogue.

"I'm meditating, you can call it meditation, it's the most common way for us to practice. ”

"Cultivation, cultivation what?"

This term came to Sha Li's mind, and the interpretation of this word in the "Spring and Autumn Rites" is the cultivation of personal morality, which is obviously inconsistent with the current situation.

"Shali, have you ever wondered what this world is like, and how did it come about?"

"I, thought about it. ”

Of course, he thought that when he woke up, all his memories would be lost, but it was also when his consciousness was at its purest.

He desperately wanted to know who he was, where he came from, why he was here, what kind of world it was, and why he existed in this world.

When a person loses all his memories, everything seems to have returned to the original point and become closer to the world in which he lives.

"This world is composed of the five elements of water, earth, fire, wood, and metal.

"These five elements of the five elements are not specific things, but the things you see and touch in your daily life, and their basic composition can be classified into these five elements or derived from the five elements. ”

"Then, the sound we hear but can't see, the moonlight we see but can't touch, are they all the five elements?"

Sha Li expressed doubt.

"Yes. You can't see it, you can't touch it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it's because they exist in a way that you can't perceive right now. ”

"As I said, the five elements don't refer to concrete things. For example, elemental fire, which is both the bonfire, the firewood, that you see, but it is not the bonfire, the firewood. ”

"Everything that exists in this world has some commonalities and characteristics. ”

"Commonality is the key to the existence being being in relation to other beings, but identity is the key to its own identity. ”

"But no matter what the characteristics of an existence are, as long as it exists in this world, it can be attributed to the five elements. ”

Sha Li seems to understand whether he understands or not, but he seems to really understand. But in my heart, I was thinking, does this have anything to do with cultivation?

"However, the world made up of the five elements is not a complete world. ”

"Because the world is simply composed of the five elements, there is no change, and it can be called a static world. ”

"In a static world, you can't see the ebb and flow of the tide, the stars shifting, and the flowers blooming and falling. The reason you see this is because the world is changing. ”

"Change?"

Sha Li remembered all the things he had seen, heard, touched, and smelled in the days he had awakened, and these things were indeed changing.

It's just that after he got used to all this, he took it for granted that the world was like this.

"What leads to this change is the two qi of yin and yang. ”

"All beings in this world have two sides, feminine and masculine, and you yourself are no exception. ”

"The essence of yin and yang is actually two very different types of qi. Together, they are changing the world. ”

"You've only been awake for a short time, and you haven't seen a lot of things. ”

"Soon you will see the evolution of the seasons. The birth of all things in spring and the cold of winter are the result of the intersection of yin and yang. ”

"Yin and Yang should maintain a consistent trend in general, and any unexpected Yin and Yang or Yang and Yin will destroy the original balance, thus causing unimaginable changes. ”

"Hmm!"

Sha Li was thinking, it sounds really interesting, but what does this have to do with the cultivation you are talking about, Kai Feng.

"However, the world composed of the five elements and the two qi of yin and yang is still not the whole of this world. ”

Sha Li: "It's not over yet......

"Do you know why you are alive and not lifeless like that stone, like rotten wood?"

Kaifeng's expression suddenly became solemn.

Sha Li was stunned for a moment, yes, why is he alive.

"It's because there's something in your body, but it's not a thing. It seems to exist, but no one really knows what it is, but it really exists. ”

"If one day it disappears, you, too, will die. ”

"What the hell?"

For the first time, Shali was eager to know.

Triumphant Wind stared into the void with his eyes.

"Aether. ”
