Chapter 144: My Wishful Thinking
Watching a bunch of them drag the wind down, I could only stay in place and have nothing to do, my heart was really cold, but I was helpless.
I turned my head, looked at Zilian with teary eyes, and sobbed: "Master, you know in your heart that Senior Sister Liuying is innocent, why don't you go forward and stop the master." Why, why didn't you step forward to help her? ”
Zilian glanced at me coldly and said, "What about you, why don't you come forward to help her?" ”
"I ...... I'm afraid. I lowered my head, not daring to look at Zilian's face, and whispered back to him, "I want to help her, but I am very scared in my heart." When the master led everyone to surround Qingshui Tower, I was very scared in my heart. I never imagined that one day, I would be surrounded by so many people, one by one, accusing me of wrongdoing, glaring at me with angry eyes, as if I had done some heinous sin...... I'm not a good person, I'm ......"
Speaking of the back, I myself feel more and more mean.
"Not long ago, the teacher told you that you had better stay away from the matter between your second master and the passing fireflies, and don't be too curious. At this moment, the things of the demon clan were picked up and handed over to your master, according to his principles of dealing with people in the past, if you don't capture the passing of the wind and fireflies, then the person who is captured may be you. ”
He glanced into the distance, stood in the wind, for a long time, and said, "You are an extraordinary person, and you do not belong to the fairy world, a person secretly conceals his identity and pretends to be a mortal to come to Lingyun Mountain, this matter is already against the rules of Lingyun Mountain." And you are a little girl, but you are wearing a man's clothes, although this matter does not violate the rules of Lingyun Mountain, but it violates the rules set when you accepted apprentices as a teacher. ”
Hearing Zilian talk about these mistakes I had made without waves, with a look of no anger or annoyance, without any expression, I thought about this day, I am afraid that it will come too early. Thinking that he has only been a disciple since he left the demon world and became his apprentice, it is only a season long, and this time is not enough for me to recall later, and now the day when the truth is revealed has come so quickly, this so-called retribution of kindness, I am afraid that it will also end at this time.
"Master."
I choked up and called him Master again, and said in a low voice, "Are you going to settle accounts with Xiaoyu?" ”
"Settle the ledger?" He read a sentence softly, as if he had just remembered, raised his eyes and said, "If something like this happened today, it should be time for the teacher to settle those accounts with you!" ”
After saying that, he didn't say a word, didn't look back at me again, turned around and walked in the direction of Biyun Pavilion.
I wanted to call him out loud, but I felt that I didn't have the power to call him Master again. Listening to his footsteps getting farther and farther away, I had the courage to glance at his dying figure.
If you deceive too much, you will still harm others and yourself in the end.
For a moment, tears rained down my eyes.
Now, isn't the relationship between the two of us about to end here, from now on, he is an immortal in the heavenly realm, and I will become the carefree princess of the demon realm again.
Looking at the residual red left behind when the sun went down, my heart twitched violently, it was better to go back to the past, and drink a glass of Lethe to forget him.
However, I am not reconciled, I am still unwilling, I have been looking forward to it for more than 3,000 years, and now I have the opportunity to be so close to him, how can I be willing to leave him like this.
I stood alone outside the Qingshui Building, quietly in a daze, watching the sky gradually darken, but I still didn't want to or dare to go to Biyun Pavilion to him. I still have what he said to me in my mind, it's time to settle this account with me, I don't know what he said, and including those accounts, whether I disguised myself as a man and went to Lingyun to worship him, or pretended to be a mortal and mixed up with Lingyun to worship him as a teacher.
When it was completely dark and I could no longer see the pool of blue lotus in front of me, I finally turned around and walked slowly in the direction of Biyun Pavilion. I can't hide, I can't hide, I know in my heart that there are some things that can't be solved by blindly escaping. When he rescued me from the hands of the four bamboo demons, when he found out that I was not a man, but a woman in a red suit, I should have confessed everything to him and told him the truth. At least, at that time, I didn't sink my heart as deep as I do now.
When I came to the door of Biyun Pavilion, I hesitated for a while, and finally, I raised my hand and gently knocked on the door a few times.
"Bang ......"
The knock on the door didn't really sound my heart beating at the moment, and I thought so in my heart.
After a while, there was no sound in the room, and I thought that my knock was too light, but he didn't hear it, so he raised his hand and knocked on the door a few more times.
"Come in!"
After a long time, his voice was heard in the room.
I buried my head and stared at the tips of my shoes, raised my foot over the threshold, and slowly walked towards him, "Master, Xiaoyu knows that he is wrong. ”
About ten paces away from him, I fell to my knees in front of his eyes, leaning downward, not daring to look up at his face again, for fear that I would see in his eyes the anger of being deceived, and his disappointment in me.
"Far away, come here."
After a while, he spoke.
"Yes, Master."
Slowly getting up from the ground, I took a few more steps forward, and when I was about five steps away from him, I fell to my knees in front of him again, and leaned down deeply, "Master, I know that I am wrong. If you want to be punished today, Xiaoyu will never complain. ”
"Beating and punishment, this is only for apprentices who are teachers, you?" He changed his words and said, "Say, what is your true identity, and what is the purpose of blending into Lingyun Mountain?" ”
I cried: "Master is a heavenly immortal, his identity is noble, Xiao Yu knows that his identity is low, and he can worship the heavenly immortal as a teacher, what a gift from God, Xiao Yu never thought that he would always be mixed in this mountain gate, but just wanted to stay by Master's side for a while." ”
After finishing speaking, he added: "More than a thousand years ago, a celestial immortal once happened to pass by the Baguio Pond and saw a small carp struggling in pain on the lotus leaf because of too much water, and he kindly helped it get out of the body the excess water that was accidentally swallowed in the body. This kindness, the little fish has always been in mind, since the immortal left, the little carp began to practice hard, it hopes that one day, he can break away from the original form and transform into a human form, and then find that immortal, to repay his life-saving grace. Finally, one day, more than a thousand years later, it transformed into a human form, and it was glad that a person escaped from the demon realm, and a person disguised himself as a mortal and worshiped under the door of that immortal, becoming his only disciple. ”
Hearing this, Zilian frowned slightly, reached out and picked up the wine cup on the table, and after drinking a glass, she looked at me with a puzzled gaze and said, "Does this story have any special significance?" What does it have to do with who you are? ”
He seems to have forgotten all about it. The little carp he rescued in the Baguio Pond thousands of years ago, and now he has really forgotten about it. So, in the end, has this so-called retribution really become my wishful thinking?
