Chen Senran: The blind man they were going to see was called Li Qing.

is a monk.

Li Qing is a person who likes to be quiet, so he lives in a deserted temple.

If it weren't for Irelia, who happened to be stationed nearby, ordinary people might have had to walk for many days to get there.

And even if they were very close at this moment, Chen Senran and Irelia had to ride horses for half a day to reach the deserted temple.

That temple is on the hill.

The mountain wasn't particularly high, but it was extremely difficult to walk.

The mountain was so steep that the only way up the mountain was almost perpendicular to the ground.

If ordinary people are not careful, it is easy to roll down the mountain, and they will have to fall to pieces.

And Li Qing lives on it.

Judging from this uphill road alone, Li Qing seems to be an interesting person.

Because he seems to like to make things difficult for others.

"Is this a test? What is the necessary etiquette before meeting the master? Although Chen Senran couldn't see it, his unique spiritual scan could still clearly perceive the mountain road in front of him.

"Maybe." Irelia's face was also a little more respectful at the moment, and she looked at the mountain path, "It is said that only those who have overcome themselves can walk up the mountain once and without hindrance. ”

Conquer yourself?

"Let's go." Chen Senran took a slight breath and took the first step towards the mountain.

His sense of balance is good, and the lockdown of the spiritual world realm allows him to make subtle adjustments at any time.

He walked steadily twenty steps.

Irelia followed closely beside him.

Twenty-one time.

"Bang-" Chen Senran stepped into the air.

His body staggered and began to fall backwards.

Irelia quickly stretched out a hand to help him.

"Don't help me." Chen Senran calmly refused and calmly rolled down the mountain road.

This is the first time.

Chen Senran stood up from the ground as if nothing was wrong. Keep going up.

This time he walked thirty steps.

Irelia had also walked thirty steps, she was a martial artist, and it might be difficult for others to maintain balance on such a mountain path. But for her it was easy.

Chen Senran continued to fall, and the fall was miserable.

This is the second time.

He began to break a little bit of skin.

But he kept going.

The third time, he had taken sixty steps, which sounded like a huge number, but in fact, there were more than a thousand steps here, and he had walked only an extremely small distance.

And this is also an important reason why the temple on this hill is not worshiped by the world. Because everybody is afraid of death.

It's fine at first, but if you fall halfway through, you'll die. It's dead.

Fortunately, Chen Senran is not an ordinary person, otherwise he would constantly take two hundred steps, four hundred steps, and six hundred steps. A thousand steps down. He's already a mess of meat.

It wasn't until the last step that he vomited blood three times, and his whole body was covered in blood.

"You ......" Irelia was a little distressed, this man, is he masochistic in this way?

"I'm fine, I'm overcoming the fear in my heart." Chen Senran took the last step and stepped steadily on the steps.

When the pilgrimage site arrived, that Master Li Qing was waiting for him inside.

"Let's go." Chen Senran suddenly turned around and prepared to go down.

He went through so much pain. I climbed the mountain, but in the end I chose to leave.

"You ......" Irelia couldn't understand at all. This man, he ......

"I've been here for a good time, and now I'm happy, so it's time to go back." Chen Senran replied.

"There's a guest coming from afar, why don't you come in and talk about it?" At this moment, a calm voice suddenly came from the ancient temple, with an indescribable taste of years of immersion.

"Now?" Irelia was a little confused about what to do.

"Since the master has invited me, let's go in and talk about it." Chen Senran turned his head again and strode inside.

This temple is not very large, and you reach the center of the temple, a large hall, through the front courtyard.

Chen Senran could clearly feel that a living body was sitting in it, neither happy nor angry, not sad or mournful, like a Buddha.

"Please be seated." The Buddha whispered.

Chen Senran sat peacefully in front of him, as if all the injuries on his body did not exist, and he was also neither happy nor angry, nor sad nor sad.

"You may be seated too." The Buddha said to Irelia again.

Irelia nodded at him and sat down.

But as she sat down, she kept looking at the man in front of her who was in the dimly lit temple, illuminated only by a glimmer of light from the zenith.

He was still naked, covering his blind eyes with a red cloth, and the black carvings on his strong upper body were still clearly visible.

But Irelia vaguely felt that he had changed.

Irelia hadn't seen him in two years.

If when I saw him two years ago, he was like a knife that had not completely lost its edge, then he is now a knife that has no edge at all, or a knife that has been unsheathed.

You can't feel his murderous aura, his depth, or even everything about him.

"Master, diligent." Irelia sighed.

"It's not that I've improved, it's just that I've realized it." The blind monk in the light and darkness shook his head and said lightly, "Master once told me that the essence of this world is to see through. ”

His master saw through it many years ago, and died peacefully under the blade of the Noxians.

"See through?" Chen Senran repeated in a low voice, "But you're blind, how can you see through it?" ”

"You have fallen down eighteen times, one more than I did back then, and you have a shackle in your heart that is heavier than mine." The blind monk suddenly looked at Chen Senran in front of him, yes, yes, with his blind eyes that were heavily wrapped in thick cloth, at that moment, Irelia suddenly felt that his eyes were extremely dazzling.

"What's that?" He said, "What is that?"

What is that?

"I don't know what to do." Chen Senran replied word by word.

"You don't know what to do?" Li Qing persecuted word by word.

"I don't know what to do." Chen Senran nodded.

"Still don't want to know the way?" Li Qing was still looking at Chen Senran, "It's not terrible to be blind, because you still have the heart to see through everything, but if the heart is also blind, you will lose your direction." ”

"Master." Chen Senran suddenly stood up, "I admit that what you said makes a lot of sense, but I'm afraid you won't be able to untie my shackles, let's go." ”

With that, he began to walk back.

"I didn't untie your shackles, the shackles were broken by myself, remember......" Li Qing yelled in vain, "break it!! (To be continued......)

PS: Second update.

Maybe this chapter is a portrayal of my own current state of mind, I am at a loss, I don't know what to do.

Break it.

I said to myself.
