Chapter 9: Gone
Hearing this, Xiao Jiansheng grew his mouth in a lost voice, and looked at Ning Tieshoe with a stupid look.
Ning Tieshoe chuckled: "There are some things, it should be time for you to know, if it wasn't for the second elder Shoutiannu who borrowed Ziyun to renew your breath for you, do you say that there can still be a person like you in this world?"
Although Xiao Jiansheng already knew the answer, this sentence came out of Ning Tieshoe's mouth, and it was another taste, this sentence shocked him, and the shock was beyond measure, and his mind was blank, and he couldn't come to his senses for a long time, and he was about to brush the snow-white long hair that was blown away by the night wind, and his hand hung in the air, at a loss.
After a while, he regained some of his senses and asked in a low voice, "And what happened to her?"
Ning Tieshoe said calmly: "You just need to remember that this heaven and earth cannot accommodate the Spirit Lord and the other three cultivators at the same time, as for the reason, it is not that people are incompatible, but that the will of the representatives of all parties cannot live in harmony. ”
Xiao Jiansheng asked in a low voice, "What the predecessor said is that the spiritual realm and this sky can't coexist?"
Ning Tieshoe nodded, and said: "It's this principle, it's like the principle that water and fire are incompatible, so in the end, only one side can win, this kind of mutual fighting situation has been experienced for countless years, and it is difficult to distinguish a satisfactory result in the end." ”
It seemed that the amount of information was a little large, Xiao Jiansheng frowned and looked up into the depths of the night sky, he was thinking carefully, quietly combing through the complex things in his mind, and after a while, he was surprised: "But what does this have to do with me and her?"
Ning Tieshoe chuckled: "At the beginning, the will of heaven and earth created this world, and then created the spokesperson of the spirit lord, and the spirit lord created hundreds of millions of living beings, speaking of which, you are all her heirs, which is why Shoutiannu did not suppress her, after all, you owe her, however, human nature is another thing, so, in the end, the spirit lord will disappear from this world, including the spirit realm will also be wiped out, so that the inheritance of the spirit lord can be completely cut off, do these thankless things, there will always be someone to stand up, can the kid understand?" Don't look bitter and hateful. ”
Xiao Jiansheng seemed to understand a little, but he became more and more puzzled, and wondered: "Since you can guard the sky, why don't the two elders of the heaven-guarding slave do these things personally?"
Ning Tieshoe poured a few sips of wine against the wind, and said patiently: "They are also flesh and blood like you, to put it in layman's terms, their ability is limited. ”
Xiao Jiansheng nodded in a daze, rubbed his numb face vigorously, and whispered: "So, the second elder Shoutiannu has been sheltering her from afar?"
"But there are times when I dozed off, such as the other night, she almost died, so I handed over this important task to you, in fact, it is a different way to deal with it, and it should be killed. ”
After Ning Tieshoe finished speaking, he smiled faintly at the pitch-black mountains in the distance.
It seemed that this night conversation could not be over, because Xiao Jiansheng had too many puzzles to figure out, however, there were some things he didn't know how to mention, or didn't want to touch.
I can't tell how high this mountain is, but it's definitely cold enough, and even the top of the mountain is covered with snow that has not melted for thousands of years, Xiao Jiansheng kept moving his feet, stepping on the snow and making a creaking sound, he already faintly felt the courage on his shoulders suddenly become heavier, and after a few breaths, he asked, "Senior, how is my cultivation potential?"
Ning Tieshoe glanced at him leisurely and said happily: "It's so-so." ”
Xiao Jiansheng
Asked: "Let's be more detailed, after going down, I will invite my seniors to taste wine." ”
Ning Tieshoe said: "Just compare you with Ma Fu's girl, he is in the sky, you are the underground, and then take the kid in Jianshan last night, you are not even as good as him, do you want to ask, in this case, why did the second elder Shoutiannu choose you eighteen years ago?"
"Shouldn't you ask?" Xiao Jiansheng's face was a little stiff and said: "According to what the seniors say, the juniors are not a piece of waste, but why did the second elder Shoutiannu choose the juniors? Why didn't you let that baby be completely freed in the first place?"
"Waste is reused, there is no waste in this world, even grass and trees, it can ignite a spark. ”
As soon as the words fell, Ning Tieshoe suddenly raised his hand and wiped it on the night dome, and after a moment, Xiao Jiansheng actually saw the infinite stars in the night dome along the traces, and seemed to feel something, he was surprisingly quiet, looking at these quietly, I don't know what Ning Tieshoe wanted him to see, it seemed that there was nothing but endless stars.
It was only after a few breaths that he noticed that there were five of the brightest stars above the line.
"Five-star alignment?"
"It's not surprising that when you were born, it was a nine-star alignment, and those nine stars were called the life stars of this heaven and earth, representing the rise and fall of heaven and earth, and when she was born, it was nine stars round, representing the destruction of this heaven and earth, so the two of you should have been people who fought against each other in life and death, and they couldn't intersect. ”
After a long time, Xiao Jiansheng closed his eyes and said with emotion: "It's really better to be an honest villager, the wife and children are hot on the kang, even if they eat the last meal or not, it is better than this, and the younger generation would rather not know her." ”
Ning Tieshoe patted Xiao Jiansheng on the shoulder and said, "Boy, accept your fate, you can't watch her die, in other words, you can not choose, but you must not disobey your orders." ”
Xiao Jiansheng suddenly said angrily: "Could it be that my sister's death is also fate? Or is it the arrangement of those two old guys?"
Ning Tieshoe snickered: "Boy, pay attention to your words, those two old guys have better ears than ordinary people." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said indifferently: "Since you dare to set up a situation for me, you will definitely make them look good in the future." ”
Ning Tieshoe seemed to have a dry mouth, reached out and grabbed a handful of snow, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed out the movement of gnawing bones.
The temperature on the top of the mountain was getting warmer and worse, and the two men in thin clothes finally couldn't stand the cold and walked down the mountain.
When he climbed over a cliff, Ning Tieshoe suddenly said: "She wants to cut off the delicate relationship with you, the best way is for you to get married." ”
Xiao Jiansheng hung a mountain rock with one hand, his body hovered, and looked at the bonfire under the mountain from a distance, and suddenly said with some shame: "I don't respect the old, I don't ...... big or small."
Just as Xiao Jiansheng racked his brains to think of those words that could hide his imminent mood, Ning Tieshoe had already left the cliff and headed towards the faint bonfire.
Xiao Jiansheng was the only one left in the same place, he thought about time while walking, and after going down the mountain, the sky was already slightly bright.
Ning Tieshoe and Yuanmuyu left, leaving only Meng Lingxiao and Zhao Lingxue in the carriage by the river.
Meng Lingxiao guarded the burned firewood, and when he saw Xiao Jiansheng coming, he quickly put the book into his arms, and then stared at Xiao Jiansheng's somewhat unnatural face and said, "I haven't returned overnight, I should have a lot of gains, and I am ready to chat."
Not?"
Xiao Jiansheng hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, that old guy is tight-lipped and doesn't say anything, at most he just copes with a few words." ”
Meng Lingxiao naturally didn't believe it, in fact, Ning Tieshoe explained a lot of things to him before leaving.
Just when Xiao Jiansheng was about to ask where the two had gone, Meng Lingxiao said with some emotion: "Senior Ning and Yuanmuyu are gone, the little guy waited for you all night, and finally left crying." ”
Xiao Jiansheng's heart was a little heavy, staring at the ashes turned into dry firewood in the ground with wide eyes, and said, "It's all my fault, there was some delay on the way." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, we should meet soon." ”
Meng Lingxiao rolled his eyes and said: "It's difficult, Senior Ning took the little guy back to his hometown, he doesn't belong to this world in the first place." ”
Xiao Jiansheng was a little stunned and speechless, then shook his head and walked towards the carriage, stayed in the carriage for a while, walked out with a wine jug in his hand and a gloomy face, walked to the big black cow, combed the fur for the big black cow, washed his mouth and nose with wine, and after doing all this, the sky was already bright.
The two of them were bathed in a golden light and circled along the river.
On the way, Xiao Jiansheng rarely spoke, really asked, said, most of the time was reading books, thinking about things, taking care of Zhao Lingxue, Ning Tieshoe had investigated Zhao Lingxue's injuries before leaving, and had done some effective treatments, three days later, although the person had not woken up, his face looked much better, and his breath was much more stable.
On this day, when it was almost evening, Xiao Jiansheng climbed a mountain and saw the sea from afar, and through the vast sea is the land.
During a simple dinner, the two chatted carefully while drinking, one sentence in the east, one sentence in the west, and finally talked about Ning Tieshoe, Meng Lingxiao said to Xiao Jiansheng: "There is a river in the distance, the river water is clear, wash and wash well, it is easy to do great things." ”
Xiao Jiansheng didn't dare to raise his head, he lowered his head and only cared about drinking, and soon drank until his face was flushed, his speech was slurred, and he said in a slur manner: "When Senior Ning left, didn't he leave anything like anything like cultivation?"
Meng Lingxiao said unhappily: "People don't owe you anything, why should they help you three times and twice, boy, wake up, rely on yourself for everything, and expect others to only get lazier and lazier." ”
Xiao Jiansheng smiled: "Having said that, he is indeed an iron rooster. ”
At this moment, Meng Lingxiao subconsciously touched his arms.
After eating dinner and drinking enough wine, Xiao Jiansheng read a book for a while through the bonfire, and then took advantage of Meng Lingxiao's inattention to secretly walk towards the river in the distance, the river water is unusually clear, after a whole day of sunshine, the water temperature is still mild, Xiao Jiansheng laughed at himself, and then began to undress, and then jumped into the water, Meimei washed a full stick of incense.
After going ashore, he still felt hot and dry, so he simply walked naked in the direction of the chariot, but when he arrived, he found that Meng Lingxiao was not there, and the big black cow's head was drooping in the sink and drowsy, as if he had an ominous premonition, he went straight to the carriage, however, the carriage was also empty.
