Chapter 31: Enlightenment

Xie Lingyun was squatting in front of the stump with a depressed face, he looked at the axe in his hand, and then looked at the wood standing on the stump, and couldn't help but sigh in frustration. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"I said that I want to realize it myself, but I don't know what I have to do, how can I realize it! You have to come to your senses within three days, or you'll get me out!" Alas! I chose this job myself, and I thought it would be an easy job for me, but I didn't expect it to be like this! Wouldn't it be a shame to be kicked out? Alas! Xie Lingyun sighed.

Xie Lingyun heard the sound of chopping wood from the young man's side, so he turned his head.

Xie Lingyun looked at Xingchen's appearance of chopping wood, and his heart moved, maybe he could learn something by watching Senior Brother Xingchen chopping wood!

What he thought in his heart could be turned into action, Xie Lingyun's eyes widened, and he looked at the action of Xingchen chopping wood seriously.

Xingchen felt Xie Lingyun's gaze and grinned, boy, if you can realize just by looking at my action of chopping wood, wouldn't 'that' thing be too cheap? Forget it, anyway, the old man said, don't let me teach him this, let him understand by himself, then I will ignore him, anyway, it will have no effect.

What Xingchen thought about in his mind was only for a moment, and then he began to concentrate on chopping wood.

After looking at it for a while, Xie Lingyun rubbed his somewhat sour eyes and sighed again.

"It's so hard! Watching Senior Brother Xingchen chopping wood, I didn't learn anything at all! Didn't the teacher say that I had a good understanding? What's so good? Xie Lingyun lowered his head and began to sigh again.

Xingchen really couldn't stand it anymore, so he straightened up, turned his head and shouted at Xie Lingyun, "Senior brother! You can't realize that! You're going to chop wood! Only in chopping wood can you realize 'that' thing! Otherwise, you will never be able to realize it! ”

Xie Lingyun raised his head after hearing Xingchen's voice, and his body shook after hearing Xingchen's words, right! Chop wood to realize! I didn't think of this just now!

Xie Lingyun also stood up and said happily to Xingchen: "Senior brother, I know!" Thank you! ”

After speaking, he turned around with full of vitality, picked up the axe, and slashed it hard.

Xingchen frowned when he saw Xie Lingyun's appearance, this was not his original intention, to realize 'that' thing not only has to keep chopping firewood, but also needs to use his brain, like Xie Lingyun is now, he can't realize it, it seems that this junior brother is destined to be driven out.

Xingchen couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this, this junior brother is diligent and lacks understanding, and he finally looked forward to someone who could help him, but it turned out to be such a result, really!

Xingchen shook his head, shook the thoughts out of his head, and began to chop wood in earnest.

Xie Lingyun was very excited at first, feeling as if he had grasped a little idea, and as long as he continued to practice, he could realize it, but then his axe became slower and slower, and finally stopped.

Xie Lingyun stopped, he frowned and pondered.

This is not right, if it is something that can be realized so easily, why did Senior Brother Xingchen also take a few days to realize it in the first place? I must have been wrong, but if this method is wrong, then how can I realize it?

Xingchen couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Xie Lingyun stop chopping wood and start pondering.

He smiled heartily, it seemed that this junior brother still had some hope, and it would be great if he could realize it.

Xingchen then continued his wood-chopping work, but this time he had already focused half of his attention on Xie Lingyun, and he wanted to see if this new junior disciple could realize 'that' thing.

Xie Lingyun looked at the wood in front of him and had some thoughts in his heart, but then he was interrupted by something.

It's not right, it's not right, it's not right.

How do you realize it? In other words, what is it that you want to realize? Why do you want to realize this thing? And...

Seeing that Xie Lingyun had become a lost soul, and he was also absent-minded during the meal, Xingchen was a little worried in his heart.

After dinner, it was time to rest, and Xingchen got up to ask the old man what was going on.

Xingchen stood in front of the old man's door and knocked on the door.

The old man's hoarse voice came from inside the room: "Xingchen, come in!" ”

Xingchen pushed the door open when he got permission, and as soon as he entered the house, he confronted the old man and asked, "What do you mean, old man?" Why don't you let me teach him? You know what he looks like now, right? How pitiful! ”

The old man silently picked up the cigarette stick in his hand, took a deep breath of the cigarette, and then spit it out before he said slowly: "O stars! He's different! If it were anyone else, I could have asked you to teach them, but this kid is different! If you teach him, his life will be ruined! ”

Hearing what the old man said, the anger on Xingchen's face slowly subsided, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and then asked, "Why?" Why is he different? ”

The old man shook his head, took a cigarette in his hand, and did not answer Xingchen's question again.

Xingchen frowned at the old man's appearance, it seemed that the old man was not going to answer him again.

As soon as Xingchen turned around, he left the old man's room.

After a long time, a sigh came from the old man's room: "He is different!" Only he is different! ”

After that, there was no sound in the courtyard, only the moon in the night sky...

The next morning, Xingchen got up, only to see that Xie Lingyun had already gotten up.

Xie Lingyun was still like this, at this time his face was haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair was unkempt, and he knew at a glance that he hadn't slept well last night.

Xingchen frowned, then sighed again.

The next day passed like this, and Xie Lingyun needed the stars to call when he was eating, otherwise he would forget to eat.

When Xingchen went back to sleep, Xie Lingyun was still sitting in the courtyard.

He said to Xie Lingyun, "It's time to go back to the room and sleep!" Xie Lingyun answered but still sat there.

He shook his head and went back to his room.

On the third day, Xingchen got up and saw that Xie Lingyun was still sitting where he had sat last night.

He looked at the dew in Xie Lingyun's hair and knew that Xie Lingyun had been sitting here all night last night.

Xie Lingyun's eyes were bloodshot at this time, and his whole temperament became decadent.

In just three days, a lively child has become like this, and Xingchen's face is full of anger, and he wants to quarrel with the old man.

But after only taking two steps, he saw Xie Lingyun standing up.

However, his legs, which had been sitting all night last night, were already numb, and he was almost unconscious, and he could still stand up there, and his body immediately fell forward.

Seeing this, Xingchen wanted to take a few steps forward to support Xie Lingyun, but he was stopped by a hand after only taking two steps.

Xingchen turned his head and saw that the old man was looking at Xie Lingyun with a straight face, and he didn't even take a puff of the cigarette in his hand.

Xingchen's face was full of anger and he wanted to question the old man, but he was restrained by the old man's wave of his hand.

At this time, he couldn't speak, his hands couldn't move, and he could only watch Xie Lingyun suffer.

After Xie Lingyun fell, he didn't give up, but supported his body with his hands and slowly crawled towards the corner, where there were stumps, wood, and the axe.

Xingchen looked at Xie Lingyun's figure crawling forward, leaving tears, and he kept blaming himself in his heart, why didn't he stop him earlier, if he had stopped him earlier, he wouldn't have to suffer this kind of sin.

Now he can only watch.

Xie Lingyun climbed in front of the stump, stood up tremblingly, picked up the axe tremblingly, stared at the wood on the stump with bloodshot eyes, slowly raised the axe, and a trace of black gas slowly appeared on the surface of his body, and then the stars only saw a flash of black light, not only the wood and the stump, but even the ground behind the stump was hardly split out of a "ravine".

Xingchen's face was full of shock, and he couldn't believe that this was caused by a mortal child who had not yet entered the path.

Xie Lingyun stared blankly at the thing in front of him, and then he slowly grinned and laughed in a hoarse voice.

He looked up to the sky and laughed three times, "Hahaha! I realized! I realized! ”

Then the sound stopped, and the whole person fell backwards.

Xingchen felt his body fall earlier, and then he came back to his senses and quickly stood up.

He glared at the old man, and then the man disappeared in place.

Xingchen picked up Xie Lingyun and ran towards Xie Lingyun's room quickly.
