Chapter 17 The Old Man of Yingge 2
He looked at me, and seemed to be looking at another person in his eyes, and finally sighed, and said lightly: "That's it, if the teacher teaches you like your master taught you as a teacher back then, I'm afraid that what you teach is not yourself, but another abyss." ”
I saw that there was some retrospective meaning in his eyes, and I couldn't help but ask, "What is another Linyuan, what does Master mean by this?" ”
He paused for a moment, as if he was caught in the whirlpool of the past, and said slowly: "I didn't expect that more than a thousand years have passed, and the changes in the world are really like a blink of an eye...... At that time, the teacher was as big as you, or not much older than you, and as soon as he entered Zhongtian, he worshiped under the Shangshen Gate of Zhongtian Qingyang.
The master taught him strictly, and in order for this seat to inherit his mantle, he asked him to learn the tone of his speech and his daily small actions, and slowly move closer to him. When he was nineteen years old, the master no longer let the seat see outsiders, and locked the seat in this nine-storied pagoda, and one lock was ten years.
It can be said that this seat is the prototype of the god of Qingyang. Later, standing side by side with the master, even the seat itself couldn't tell who was who. Master also knew in his heart that this seat would one day replace him. At that time, I felt resentment in my heart, but who did I resent? Is it forced to separate from the outside world, or is it the Master who has poured all his heart and soul into this seat? There are so many things missing from this seat's life, affection, friendship, love, and freedom......
Later, Master was 9,000 years old when he passed away, and he was still in the prime of his life. On his deathbed, he told him, 'You can walk out of this tower, and from today you will be in the abyss.' ’
The word Linyuan is not so much a name as an official position of Zhongtian, and this seat has the responsibility to pass it on. At first, he lived unscrupulously for several years like a wild horse freed from his shackles, but slowly, he suddenly felt that the things that were missing in the past were no longer needed because they could not be obtained for a long time. And that year, it was the founding of Jiuxiao City, the blood clan invaded, the world was in chaos, there were many people waiting for the protection of this seat and there were many things waiting for me to adjudicate, just like that, this seat re-entered the nine-storied tower, but that time it was willing......"
I looked at him in a daze, and suddenly felt sad in my heart, "So, so, has Master never thought of leaving the Taishang Divine Palace and leaving this nine-fold white pagoda for more than a thousand years?" ”
The national teacher thought seriously for a while before he said, "No." As a teacher, he wants to protect Zhongtian and dispatch the Six Realms, which is related to the countries of the four seas and thousands of generations, how can he still come with his own selfish desires? ”
Hearing this, my heart was inexplicably sour. For the sake of the Six Realms and for the common people, can a person really put himself in a cage after grinding his unruly temperament, and become a well-behaved rabbit when he is released? Although Master is not as difficult to get close to as it seems on the surface, his charm lies in the fact that he retains a kind and tolerant heart no matter how old he is, which is really rare. Like Sula, it always walks with its neck held high, always trying very hard to maintain its demeanor, but always inadvertently revealing all its true nature.
"Amo, as a teacher, I tell you these things today, to remind you, there is nothing really satisfactory in this world, and gains and losses are the normal state of life. Now that you are a disciple of cultivating immortals, you are also a disciple of your teacher, and in the future, you must always think about Zhongtian, the Six Realms, and the common people in the world. Whatever has happened in the past, no matter what, you have to let it pass, there will come and go, so that you can be at ease. Of course, being a teacher will not force you to inherit the mantle of being a teacher in the future, and live like a teacher with heavy responsibilities, and it depends on fate. ”
I knew that he was telling me to make me forget what happened with Wei Wuji in my previous life, so after thinking for a while, I finally nodded and said, "Ah Mo knows, Ah Mo will know Master's words, cultivate hard, and keep the world in mind." ”
He looked at me and smiled with satisfaction.
To be honest, I actually wish to go back to Xiliang where I used to live with Master, and then live with the people I value, but I don't know if such a vision will become a reality one day?
I leaned down on the low table next to the couch and leaned over to him and asked, "Does Master like the Western Regions?" ”
He thought about it and said, "It's too hot, I don't like it." ”
"But there are wines, and huqin, qiangdi, and mirages. In fact, I am used to seeing the mountains and rivers of Jiuxiao City, and it is also good to go to the Western Regions. I smiled implicitly, "Ah Mo can make a big umbrella for Master to ensure that Master will not be exposed to the sun." Has Master ever ridden a camel? Ah Mo can lead the camel for the master and watch the sunset over the long river together, what does the master think? ”
"Why do you want to go to the Western Regions as a teacher?"
I sighed and said with a smile: "Because Master invited Ah Mo to enter the Zhongtian and Taishang Divine Palace, and it is not rude to come, Ah Mo naturally wants to invite Master to go to Ah Mo's hometown to have a look." ”
After being coaxed by me, the national teacher's attitude seemed to be relaxed, and he turned his head to look out the window and said lightly, "The teacher knows that you are still thinking about your Xiliang." As long as you like it, in the future, when your soul is stable, there is nothing wrong with going back to Dunhuang to live occasionally, and you can accompany you as a teacher. ”
"Hmm!" I suddenly felt overjoyed, fantasizing in my heart, but I became more and more eager to go back to Xiliang, but I can't make a mistake yet, I need to stabilize the national teacher first, so I said: "By the way, Master must be tired these days, and he should have a good rest." Ah Mo is blindly verbose here, and you can't be at peace, so let's go back to my dormitory first, Master, go and rest, Ah Mo will retire after making the bed. ”
He held me down and said in a harmonious voice, "Don't be in a hurry, wait until you finish your care today, and go back tomorrow." ”
I smiled and said, "Yes, Master." ”
