Chapter 471: The Past and the Present
Walk slowly, in the silence of the woods. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info can only hear the rustle of footsteps on the fallen leaves, and the occasional crisp ringing of a few ringtones.
The melodious and crisp sound of the bell seemed to be not blocked by the dense trees around it at all, and the sound continued to echo between the trees. Obviously, the delicate bell only shook a little, but it rang out endlessly.
This bell is also very strange, and it is firmly locked within a hundred zhang.
Within a hundred zhang, it is a fine bell like spring rain hitting the river. Beyond the hundreds, no sound could be heard.
Beyond the ringing of the bell, there was not a trace of wind. The trees were silent, drooping their branches and leaves, and they looked black.
And within a hundred zhang, there is a faint slight wind blowing slowly. Whether it is the leaves on the branches or the flowers and plants on the ground, they are all swaying slowly and regularly.
It's like a group of scholars who are obsessed with reading and reading. While reading a book, I slowly shook my head.
Tianli gently shook the dream bell, and his eyes occasionally lingered among the surrounding trees and flowers.
I don't know how long it lasted like this, but the flowers and plants around me that were shaking their heads gradually stopped. Tianli put away the dream bell and slowly closed his eyes.
The dark clouds in the sky, at some point, completely obscured, the white full moon. The mountains and forests, which have lost their moonlight, appear even darker.
Tianli's body was gradually swallowed up by darkness. In the surrounding woods, the cry of a nighthawk suddenly sounded. In the grass that had been quiet, there was gradually a sound of insects.
Just when it all seemed to be back to normal. In the darkness, a pair of cold and indifferent eyes suddenly flashed.
The gaze squinted at the sky, as if it could penetrate the layers of dark clouds. Falling on the bright moonlight.
The layers of dark clouds floating in the sky seemed to sense the danger in their eyes. Slowly drifting farther away, revealing the faint moonlight.
Under the moonlight, a dark red sword light flashed in the night sky.
The sword moved faster and faster, flew farther and farther, and gradually disappeared into the distance.
Tianli stood silently on top of the flying sword, his expression a little heavy. Tianli's eyes looked into the distance, and he couldn't see any emotion.
The night was still deep, so dark that it seemed to swallow everything. But in his eyes, there seemed to be something reflected.
It was a mountain, a tower, and a very simple courtyard.
The sky left Edgeworth and went straight up to the sky, without the cover of clouds. The starry sky looks exceptionally bright. Looking at the clouds and mist that seemed black because of the lack of sunlight at his feet, Tianli seemed even more silent.
Tianli casually glanced at the stars in the sky, and did not deliberately discern the direction. But he can be sure that he didn't fly wrong.
The sky above the clouds is quieter than the earth under the clouds.
On this silent night, the whole world seemed to hear not a single sound. Maybe it's the big battles that make people too tired.
Even heaven and earth want to sleep well in this quiet night. The thick clouds looked like soft pillows no matter how you looked at them. People can't help but stretch out, a strong sense of sleepiness.
It was a quiet night, and I didn't know who it was, and I didn't want to sleep. Gently fiddling with the soft pillow between heaven and earth.
Above the sky, the clouds that had been quietly floating in the sky. Suddenly, it tumbled violently. It's like someone holding an invisible huge wooden stick and stabbing it at the sky. It seems that in the next moment, a huge hole will be poked out between heaven and earth.
Just at the hole where the clouds and mist had broken through, a dark red sword light fell straight down. If it weren't for the strange color, it would have looked like a dazzling meteor.
Tianli landed on a slope in the mountains. Behind him, a pitch-black wood. There was a faint roar coming from the woods, but it was hidden in the darkness and nothing could be seen.
Below him, there are terraces lined up in layers. It's just sweet potatoes and corn in the field, scattered all over the ground. It looks like hundreds of wild boars have been visited at the same time.
Tianli raised his eyes and looked at another mountain in the dark night. The expression on his face was calm, but his body trembled slightly.
There is Shushan, and that is the place that should belong to him, but it does not belong to him.
There are enchantments around Shushan, and they have not been opened. Occasionally, you can see the disciples of Shushan who patrol the heavens and the earth. Because of the protection of Shu Mountain, those villages under Shu Mountain have not been seriously damaged.
In some of the dilapidated villages, all the villagers were asleep. Because they knew that while they were asleep, there were Shushan disciples patrolling.
So they don't worry when they're asleep. There will be monsters attacking their small village.
Tianli wrapped himself firmly with a black cloak. Then in the sky, the gap where those Shu Mountain disciples patrolled. Very easily, he sneaked into Shu Mountain.
Even though it's five years from now, everything here seems so familiar.
Tianli passed by the Shushan Hall and saw the inside of the hall. Smell that looks, tired body. Asked and sat under the statue of Sanqing with his eyes closed, and the gray hair on his temples was much more than five years ago, and he looked even older.
Because he was afraid of being asked, he didn't dare to get too close.
Tianli just watched quietly, looking at that familiar face. He didn't even know for a moment that this man was. Should he hate or be grateful?
I don't know how long it took, Tianli turned around and walked towards another place in Shushan.
Shushan's vigilance is much stricter now than before. From time to time, you can see a group of disciples from Shushan passing by.
But these are for the Tianli who has been here for sixteen years. These patrols didn't make any sense, and Tianli easily avoided them all.
While passing by a courtyard, Tianli suddenly stopped. The swift side is hidden in the dark corner.
Tianli's right hand holding the sword trembled slightly, looking a little nervous. The expression on his face is also constantly changing, and he looks a little hesitant.
Exhaling softly, Tianli calmed down and looked towards the courtyard.
A man sat in the courtyard, drinking himself at a stone table. Occasionally looking up at the sky, perhaps drunk and letting out two chuckles.
"Cultivating the Tao, what kind of Tao am I cultivating? Three Thousand Avenues, which one should I take?"
Qing Yu looked at the wine glass in his hand and took a sip. It didn't seem to be enjoyable, and he raised the flask on the table to drink it all.
In the pale ice moonlight, the figure of the drinking man looked so lonely. It seems that there is nothing in the world except the cold moonlight, and there is nothing to accompany him.
