Chapter 686: Change
The old man pointed at Luo Jia, his tone full of appreciation and recognition, and a calm smile on his face.
Although it looked so inconspicuous, what he said was impossible to ignore, the smile on Bai Qingqiu's face froze instantly, she didn't expect to get such an answer, and felt a little inexplicably sad
Not only did Bai Qingqiu not expect it, but everyone here didn't expect that Bai Qingqiu's words sounded like just a joke, but this old man's words, his movements and expressions, no matter what, made people feel that there was a joke.
He's serious!
Xia Wushuang and Bai Qiying invariably turned their heads to look at Luo Jia, their eyes were different, some were shocked and surprised, some were complicated and unwilling to accept it, Luo Jia was also frightened by this sudden evaluation, and some did not react.
She knew that this old man had a strange temperament, but she didn't expect him to say such things at will, especially in front of her juniors.
Rarely, Luo Jia's face began to flush, and he could not bear the gaze around him, and slowly lowered his head.
Jiang An looked at the old man with a stunned face, he really didn't understand what the other party meant, and soon, the old man gave an explanation: "There is courage and no strategy, there is courage and strategy, a good leader needs a good military advisor, and even more needs an excellent guide, you are not good, you are more than smart, but you can't calm down in your heart, and your eyes naturally can't be long-term, you are not suitable to assist him-"
These words made Bai Qingqiu breathe a sigh of relief, and Xia Wushuang's gasp was also heard from behind, Luo Jia still lowered his head, and seemed to sigh slightly, but it didn't seem to be.
"Grandpa, who asked you this? I hate it to death! Bai Qingqiu complained coquettishly, and it could be seen that she was really scared just now, but now that the scar was healed, she forgot the pain, and continued to ask: "Then can I marry him?" Grandpa, what do you think of him? ”
The old man rubbed his hands like withered hands, his little eyes opened, his eyes were not cloudy, but clear and terrifying, except for young and ignorant children, it was rare to see such clear and pure eyes in adults, without any confusion and hindrance.
Under the gaze of this kind of gaze, Jiang An felt very uneasy, as if he didn't have any secrets in front of this person, and the whole person was let him see through and see through from the inside out, and even he could see places he didn't understand.
Unconsciously, sweat began to flow down the forehead of the river bank, and the other party's aura was very strong, sitting there, not moving, sometimes like an inconspicuous small dirt slope, sometimes like a tall giant mountain that could not be seen, making people in a trance, and not even having the courage to act.
It seems that the other party has detected all your lines of action, and he can see whether you want to raise your hand or move forward and backward, and at the same time, Jiang An also clearly knows that the other party does have such an ability.
Because, he is not an ordinary old man, he is an old monster that has survived for nearly a thousand years, a legendary figure like a living fossil - Master Turtle!
Bai Qiying once told himself about the mysterious past of his family, which mentioned this mysterious turtle master, he is an absolute powerhouse, but what is really terrifying is not his strength, but his strange talent for divining the world.
As long as he wants to know, then no one can hide from him, his eyes seem to contain the past and the future, and he can see through everything.
Master Turtle, this is an extremely powerful character, the corpse demon and the demon lord are quite jealous of him, and at the same time want to get his strength, with the help of this kind of person, then it is equivalent to having a military advisor comparable to Zhuge Liang around him.
Luo Jia had seen this master before, but the situation at that time seemed to be a little strange, listening to Bai Qiying's statement, Luo Jia seemed to have asked about marriage!
This kind of thing sounds a bit absurd, it's like going to the temple fair to ask for a sign, there is no basis, it can only give people psychological comfort, Jiang An doesn't believe in this kind of thing, but if the person who unsigns the sign is replaced by Master Turtle, he has reason to believe it.
At the same time, he also knew that he might be able to get answers to what he was asking for today.
"Not bad, yes, he has strength, he has a mind, he has courage, but he is not mature and can't see through his heart, it doesn't matter, he should be like this, but he is a little stronger than Qiying, and he is a manufacturable material!" The old man said with a smile, this is a more pertinent evaluation.
"Humph!" Bai Qiying's voice came from behind, quite dissatisfied.
Bai Qingqiu didn't care about his brother's mood at all, he looked very excited, like a painter whose work had been praised, his face was full of happiness, and asked: "Can you marry me, if this person is a person, you can match me!" ”
Jiang An had a headache again, what is going on with this vixen? It's clear that you've just come of age, how can you feel like an older leftover girl, are you still worried that you won't be able to get married? No kidding.
The old man glanced at her and said with a smile: "You, you know that it is enough to embarrass me, but well, you have to ask him about this matter, I can't make the decision for you!" ”
The ambiguous answer resolved the crisis on the riverbank, and also relieved the remaining two.
Bai Qingqiu pouted reluctantly, but he didn't say anything, sat by the fire to help Jiang An warm his hands, stretched out his hand, and immediately took a small kumquat from the table next to him, peeled it off happily, and then fed it to Jiang An's mouth.
The rest of the people also sat down, surrounded by the stove, quietly looking at the old man, and did not take the initiative to ask questions.
The scene seems a little strange, in this wide and clean courtyard, the huge stove burns vigorously, and from time to time there are bright flames rushing up from the mouth of the stove, as if unwilling to accept the cold weather, by the fire, several young men and women sit quietly, with a straight posture and a serious expression, while looking at the old man who has been in an ancient state on the opposite side.
The old man quietly rummaged through the stove for a long, long time, and said, "Are you so anxious to get an answer?" The old man just wants to sit here and bake the fire, and let you stare at it like this, where is the mood? Chase them all away! ”
Bai Qingqiu hurriedly said: "Grandpa, don't be angry, let's tell them quickly, you see that he has become like this, I feel distressed when I look at it, and you don't know how to help me?" ”
The old man sighed, put down the tongs, turned his head to look at Luo Jia, and said, "Little girl, this is the second time we have met, after a year, do you think there are any changes around you?" ”
Luo Jia thought for a moment and said seriously: "There are naturally changes, as long as I live, then changes exist all the time, but I can't understand the laws and can't detect what I want to know, so I will fall into a predicament and sit still!" ”
"What about you? What do you think about these changes? The old man asked.
Everyone looked at each other, changed, for everyone present, the biggest change was in the past six months, everyone's life trajectory has been deflected, leaving the channel they once envisioned, but they don't understand, what is the connection between this and the current situation?
Jiang An came to ask about how to solve Qing Nan's case, he is now exhausted in donkey skills, and he can't think of a way, but there is a situation in front of him that is enough to burn, and all he can think of is this old man.
"It seems that your hearts are full of confusion, and you can't even see yourself, how can you see others clearly?" Seeing that no one was talking, the old man spoke.
"I understand your current problem, but do you really need me to point it out? The problem is not the best to solve it as soon as possible, many times, keep it, wait for the time to come, you can discover the mystery, this is far better than simply solving it, I can help you for a while, can I help you for a lifetime"
Everyone fell silent, the old man seemed to have the idea of refusal, did he really want to sharpen everyone, or did he really not want to help?
No one can guess this, the old man is right, they don't even see themselves, they don't know what kind of value and power they have in their hearts, and they don't know what they want to pay for it, how can people who can't even understand themselves understand others?
"We live between this heaven and earth, we must abide by the laws of this heaven and earth, and we cannot cross it, otherwise, we may find the scourge of killing, all we can do is to keep groping in the dark, you are like this, I am also like this, I am not as magical as you think, it's just that I can see myself clearly, so I can also see others clearly!"
The scene fell silent, Jiang An suddenly said: "Master, I also hope to be able to see myself clearly, I know it's difficult, the stories around us are constantly changing, we ourselves are constantly changing, if you want to see yourself clearly, you need a lot of things to sharpen, let the body be transparent, let the spirit bloom, I am working hard, but I am very confused now, I need to light the fire of light, I need direction and strength." ”
"I don't really know what I really want, I just know that I am willing to work hard for this perseverance, no matter how much hardship and pain I go through, I am willing to work hard, so, Master, please show me the way, I need a guide like you."
Everyone looked at Jiang An, and at the same time at the same time, they also looked at Master Turtle, and at some point, there were three more strangely shaped copper coins in his hand.
The copper coin is blackened all over, it doesn't look perfect, there are a lot of strange edges and corners on the edges, it looks more like something that has been polished at random, but those thin lines on it make people have to care, through those lines, it seems that you can see an illusory giant net.
This web encloses everyone and everything, connects with each other, allows people to see the infinite end from a distant beginning, and at the same time, can also see the many details of this journey, and all the past events will be revealed.
Master Turtle looked at Jiang An quietly and said, "Are you sure again, do you really want to understand everything and train yourself?" ”
"I'm sure!"
"Then I can't leave you empty-handed, direction, guide you-"
