241 Oblivion
Gu Jicheng left a plausible sentence, and without waiting for him to answer, he turned around and left.
Zhen Yunrong was stunned and stood in the maple leaf forest in the back mountain for an afternoon, but was dragged back by Zhang Xinwei, who was found after hearing the news.
That night, it rained heavily on Mount Jiluo.
In the grotto of Mi Fengya, Zhang Baihua put down the last spirit stone in his hand.
She didn't come in the middle of the night, but got up early in the morning. There are traces of no one living here for too long, and many places are covered with dust. Although the floor of the cave was hard as stone, the dust that had accumulated on it was already thick...... After all, it is still dirt in nature, and it is impossible to be completely clear and clean.
When Zhen Yunrong came, she had already finished cleaning and was arranging the Spirit Gathering Array.
Yes, she knew he was coming, though he didn't say a word.
Her retreat was agreed by Qingyuan Zhenren, she and Zhen Yunrong's state is different, not so much that she is confused and overwhelmed, it should be said that she has a clear purpose and hopes to give up that feeling.
She has always been a woman who is cruel to others and even more ruthless to herself.
In a way, she and Gu Jicheng are actually two people who are very similar. They are also too cautious about their lives, and they have always calculated and refused to make the slightest mistake, once such a special person appears, they will be a thousand times more guarded...... Either break the defense or drive away, there are only two possibilities.
But Gu Ji Cheng has the capital to completely close her heart, but she can't.
She hasn't gotten to the point of being desireless and strong, and wants to get it before. It must also be paid.
It's just that even Zhang Baihua himself didn't expect that one day. She would actually give affection to someone.
Thought it was the most useless feeling.
In both her past life and in this life, she prefers relatively more definite things, such as laws, such as social order, and will abide by these rules within a limited scope. She hates everything complicated, abstract, like human feelings.
So when I was a lawyer. She can methodically exploit the loopholes of the law and use all kinds of means that can be used, but she never considers the warmth and coldness of people. Consider the victim's feelings.
Ruthless, cruel and cold-blooded.
Whenever she refuted witnesses who wanted to be moved at every turn, she would always hear someone say that to her.
But so what?
She's not ruthless, she's just too lazy to pay attention to the nothing. Sometimes it's not your business, you really don't care. And she has always felt that as long as the price paid is enough, no one can not be impressed.
As long as it is not a matter of human life, no one will really bite the bullet and hold on to it in front of sufficient interests.
The human heart is originally ugly.
Zhen Yunrong is the same, he just fell in love with the wrong person in his previous life, so he wants to choose someone who loves him in this life.
With those who travel through the novels of rebirth...... Actually, it's no different. She and he are both the same. Because I have been all over again, because I have felt the taste of pain. They will be cautious and do not give themselves easily, but they are eager for others to give sincerity.
…… And she was unfortunate that she really did what he wanted.
But...... She was still grateful for his honesty, and his words revealed so much she hadn't figured out. If she had known this a long time ago, she would probably have packed up her feelings early and would not have let them get to this point.
Although she still had a chance to regret before setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, Zhen Yunrong's search did not make her feel much turmoil. At this moment, she did not feel excited and happy, because it was an abnormal reaction that he did not come over...... In that case, there would be no need for her to deliberately close herself up.
You know, Death Pass is not just a simple name, it really represents the monk's most determined desperate bet. There are many monks who are about to reach the end of their life, but because they are not willing to die of old age like this, they choose to retreat.
…… Most people only have one chance to retreat once in their lives, because there is no turning back, and these monks will choose to give it a go at the end of their lives, because even if they lose, the end will be nothing more than a dead cave.
Either advance, prolong the limitations of longevity...... Or, die.
And once you choose to close the death, it is not a matter of coming up with it, the Spirit Gathering Array is not easy to place, in addition to being able to accelerate the speed of absorbing spiritual energy, it also has a confining function. Only by breaking through a great realm will the original Spirit Gathering Array become invalid, and she will be able to walk out from here.
She only prepared Bigu Dan for herself for 50 years.
You must know that Zhang Baihua is just an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator, although the cultivation of the seventh layer of Qi Refining is already young and promising at her age, but it is not so simple to break through and build a foundation...... If you are unlucky, you may not be able to cross the realm of Qi Refining Great Perfection in a hundred years. If she can't break through in fifty years...... Unless Venerable Yuanying forcibly breaks through the level and takes her out, she will only have one end...... Starve.
That's a lot more cruel than dying old.
Death retreat is dangerous and prone to all kinds of accidents. After all, no one knows what will happen to the place where they have been in retreat for so long, such as the collapse of a mountain and the rebirth of a dragon are common.
Therefore, it is rare for a monk to retreat at such a young age as Zhang Baihua, and if it weren't for her resoluteness, Qingyuan Zhenren would not have agreed to her doing such a dangerous thing at all. However, he rejected her offer to find a place to retreat on her own, and instead told her that it was a great place for her.
Inexplicably, Qingyuan Zhenren is very fortunate to her, even if she can't reach the level of Zhen Yunrong, she is not eighty years old to build a foundation...... Zhang Baihua is not necessarily impossible!
Zhang Baihua didn't know when Zhen Yunrong left, and after sensing his presence, she only hesitated slightly before placing the last top-grade spirit stone.
The five-color and five-element top-grade spirit stone is enough to support the spirit gathering array for fifty years, after all, the top-grade spirit stone is not a cabbage...... These few were saved for her by Qingyuan Zhenren.
Seriously, for her, the half-apprentice who got by accident, he is also benevolent and righteous.
When they first met, Zhang Baihua still felt that the family was too demonic, not like a man, but now that I think about it, the proportion of handsome men and beautiful women among the monks is very high, and the master and apprentice of Qingyuan Zhenren are just more prominent...... After all, he deliberately picked it.
She is not a sweet-mouthed person, and she couldn't say that thank you in the end.
Unbeknownst to Zhang, on the second day of her retreat, there was an extra bamboo house in the maple forest. (To be continued.) )
