Chapter 124: The Eight-Year Covenant

"What's the use of you telling me this?" Yu Xia was puzzled, "In what capacity are you telling me this?" What is your purpose? ”

Zhou Sixteen pursed his lips, "My origin, it's inconvenient to tell you clearly, I can only say that I have my mission, and everything I do is for the stability of this world, not for personal desires." ”

Yu Xia didn't say a word, and listened intently to what he said.

"I'm looking for you because Jianghu Xuanmen actually doesn't have much ambition, Jianghu Xuanmen, most of them are from ordinary people, I need to find someone who can lead the future of Jianghu Xuanmen, and work with me to get everything back on track."

Yu Xia smiled, blinked his eyes and asked him, "Are you sure that I am the one who can lead the future of the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes?" If I'm not mistaken, you should be a follower of Miss Nan, right? ”

Zhou Sixteen shook his head, "I just have a pure appreciation for Miss Nan for an excellent woman, and she doesn't seem to have any intention of joining any forces, since I have no intention of doing this, then I can only find someone else." ”

"Then why do you think I'm willing to get involved in these things? I'm just a country girl who has just entered the Xuanmen, what is the general trend of the world, it is too far away for me. ”

"Because of the number of lives."

Zhou Sixteen said, "You are destined to take this road in the future." ”

Zhou Sixteen's words were very firm, not like a joke, Yu Xia was stunned when he heard it, and said puzzledly, "My life?" ”

"Do you think that why Miss Nan and Mo Daochang and others are inexplicably interested in you?"

Zhou Sixteen sighed, "That's because your fate is different." ”

Is there a difference in fate?

"Why am I so different?" Yu Xia was a little puzzled, fortune telling is not self-counting, she doesn't know much about what her life is, she can't understand, her birth date has not been revealed, why do others conclude that her life is different?

"Actually, I don't know very well," Zhou Sixteen shook his head, stared at Yu Xia for another moment, and frowned slightly, "Do you know that your face is different?" ”

Yu Xia nodded.

Zhou Sixteen was silent for a moment, but did not continue, and turned to other topics.

"Not to mention the question of your fate, that night I saw you go out to deliver winter clothes for the wandering spirits, and I knew that you were a compassionate person with the people in mind, so in fact, what you and I wanted coincided."

Yu Xia looked directly at him, knowing that he should have something else to say, so he waited in silence.

"I also heard about the evil land of the dragon in Jintan County before." Zhou Sixteen said, "Although others are rumoring that this is the merit of the Qing Palace in the Nine Heavens, I know that the person who discovered the secret of the evil land of the resentful dragon is a half-grown peasant girl. ”

"When you reported yourself to your home and said that you were from Jintan, I knew your identity."

Yu Xia was slightly surprised, the role she played in the matter of resenting the dragon and evil land, it stands to reason that only the people in the Yazhong of Jintan County and Baili Yexi and others know, and these people don't look like they will have anything to do with Zhou Sixteen.

This week's sixteenth is not simple.

"Although you are young, you have a benevolent heart, and you do not seek fame and fortune, but only seek the well-being of the people. Coupled with his high talent and rapid cultivation progress, he is a rare Xuanshi with both benevolence and strength. And you're just starting out, and you haven't joined any of the forces yet, so I think you're the right person. ”

"The forces of the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes are chaotic, and they need a leader with high enough strength and prestige to integrate them, so that the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes has the capital to compete with the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism. I believe that such a situation is also what the people in the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes are eager to see. ”

Yu Xia smiled, "Now I'm only a second-grade person, first of all, my strength can't meet the requirements, there are many people who meet such conditions in the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes, why do you bother to find me." ”

Without waiting for Zhou Sixteen to reply, Yu Xia said again, "I want to help the world and save the people, but I just want to conform to my heart, your position makes you think that what you are doing is for the people of Li to conform to the way of heaven, but do you know that other forces don't think so?" ”

"Right or wrong, there is no conclusion, it can only be said that the way sought is different."

Zhou Sixteen didn't expect that Yu Xia, who was only an eight-year-old peasant girl, could see it so clearly, and was not a little shaken by his words.

With such a firm heart to seek the truth, why should such a person not go far?

Zhou Sixteen's gaze at Yu Xia brightened up more and more.

"What do you think of Dao Yuan Tang?" Sixteen changed the subject.

Yu Xia didn't know why Zhou Sixteen suddenly talked about Daoyuan Hall, a little inexplicable, but he still thought about it and replied:

"Daoyuan Hall has made great contributions to maintaining the order of Xuanmen and ensuring the stability of the people's lives. Without Daoyuantang, I don't know what the world will be like. ”

Zhou Sixteen snorted coldly, "That's just the appearance, the essence of Daoyuan Hall is just the product of the game between the imperial court and the Daomen." ”

"So, why did Daoyuantang meddle in the affairs of the Xuanmen and Buddhism? Think of yourself as the judge of the Xuanmen? ”

Yu Xia had a different opinion, "Daoyuan Hall has restrained the behavior of the Xuan Master, executed the evil cultivators who made trouble, no matter which force it is, let the world be stable, isn't it beneficial to the people?" ”

"You said earlier that everything you do is for the stability of the world, not for personal desires, but aren't you still starting from the interests of the forces behind you?"

Zhou Sixteen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly laughed, "What you said is not wrong, I keep saying that I have no selfish desires, but in fact, I still speak from my standpoint." But in this world, where is there no one who has selfish desires? It is only when there is selfish desire that there will be strife. ”

"What you said is very reasonable, but it is too idealistic, where there are so many pure things in the world, where there are so many pure people, it is impossible for Datong society to exist. What we can do is to make many orders as reasonable as possible in this world where everyone has selfish desires, so that the people of the world can truly enjoy the blessings of God. ”

In the end, Zhou Sixteen showed a longing look on his face, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to be a little more real and amiable.

"You're not actually from the Xuanmen of the rivers and lakes, are you?" Yu Xia suddenly asked.

Zhou Sixteen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "Yes and no." Where I came from, I don't know much about my origins. ”

"It's too early for you to say that." Yu Xia groaned, "I've just stepped into the Xuanmen now, my vision is still very small, and my strength is still very low, but if in the future, your original intention has not changed, and there is a place where I am needed, I will definitely not refuse." ”

This can be regarded as a promise to Zhou Sixteen.

Zhou Sixteen smiled, "Since that's the case, then let's make an agreement." ”

"Eight years later, as long as you and I are still in Xuanmen, if something major happens that concerns the people of the world, how about you help me on the premise of conforming to your own heart?"
