"Is it true?"
It is said that this kind of thing cannot be known to everyone. But since many people say this, it can't be a rumor that someone faked.
There must be some factual basis.
Shi'er didn't speak, and it wasn't until Qiuqiu asked again that he whispered, "I once seemed to be ...... during a retreat I felt something. โ
"You...... Enlightened? โ
"Nope."
After a while, Shi'er said, "I only saw a light in the distance." โ
"What's over there?"
"I don't know."
Qiuqiu is so curious!
I have never heard of such a thing as attaining enlightenment and ascending to the Tao, but no one has ever described in detail what it was like to attain enlightenment, what it would see, hear, and feelโ
Because the path of enlightenment is a one-way street, all those who have attained enlightenment have gone and never returned, and of course it is impossible for another person to come back and tell everyone about their experience and experience of attaining enlightenment.
"What color is that light? Is it ahead of you? Above? How did you feel at the time? Did you hear anything? โ
Qiuqiu was so full of questions that she didn't know which one to ask first.
No, no, these are not the most important things.
Qiuqiu thought, if he had kept moving forward at that time and seized that opportunity, he would have walked into that light-
It may be a whole new world, the ultimate goal and direction of thousands of cultivators in this world.
But he didn't go over.
Although Shi'er didn't say anything, Qiuqiu could guess eight or nine points in his heart.
He could see it, which meant that he had a chance, but he let that opportunity pass by by mistake.
"Stupid."
Shi'er turned her head sideways to look at her.
"Don't miss this great opportunity next time."
Shi'er smiled: "It's my chance, it's still mine after all, why rush overnight." โ
At first glance, it sounds good, but chance is not something that can be found just by looking for it. If you miss that time, maybe your future state of mind and cultivation will never reach that kind of mysterious realm, even if you can meet the opportunity again, who knows how many years, decades?
Qiuqiu looked at the man in front of her.
Is she worth it for him to give up the opportunity to become enlightened and wait to find her?
Qiuqiu hugged his waist tightly, and buried her face tightly in his arms.
"You don't have to." Shi'er's tone was indifferent and gentle: "Don't be burdened." It was my own choice and I never regret it. โ
Qiuqiu wouldn't be fooled by his words at all.
How is it possible not to be burdened? Although it was his choice, what did he choose for? Or because of her.
"Are you willing to let me go to a strange place, and after I go, it is impossible to come back, and we may never have the opportunity to meet again."
Of course...... Of course, I can't bear it.
But it wasn't a casual place, it was the end point that all cultivators dreamed of, countless people struggled to get up and down, and there were very few lucky people who could reach the other side, but he gently put down the opportunity that was at his fingertips.
"If you have to do this, then we really have to settle the account between us." Shi'er handed her a handkerchief: "Wipe it." โ
Qiuqiu snatched the handkerchief and wiped her face hard.
Shi'er asked, "Do you know how many disciples went to the Central Plains with us back then and went to the Sealed Land to participate in that great battle?" โ
Qiuqiu shook her head honestly.
"Seventy-four, including me, were dead at that time."
Qiuqiu was stunned, pinching the handkerchief and being stunned for a while: "Seventy-four people? โ
"If it weren't for you, I would have died by then, and you saved my life." Shi'er said softly: "If you have to say who owes whom, I also owe you, you really don't owe me at all, and you don't owe these people up and down Jiufeng." โ
"You can't say that......"
"What do you mean then?" Shi'er showed a faint smile: "Do you want to tell me that these lives, even me, are not worth mentioning?" โ
Qiuqiu knew that he was not eloquent, so Shi'er said this, as if the reason was all on his side, and he couldn't refute it at all.
"But those ......" she didn't remember.
Of course, she didn't think those lives were frivolous and worthless.
She just thinks that this kind of thing, done is done, but it just happened to run into an opportunity, and it is not a great thing. If he has another accident in front of her now, of course she still has to save it.
This is what she wants, and as for the people she saved, if she says thank you, she thinks it will be enough.
How can it be said that these more than 70 people owe her a life?
This is not the algorithm.
She stumbled to tell her reason, and Shi'er smiled: "Yes." Therefore, I just passed by that opportunity, and it cannot be regarded as giving up the opportunity to ascend to the Dao. You don't even have to put the blame on yourself, don't you? โ
I still can't talk about him.
Qiuqiu glared at him.
Shi'er held her hand: "I don't want to go anywhere without you." Aren't you like that? โ
Oh, yes.
Although she still couldn't remember the past, and although they hadn't met long enough in this life, she was completely used to his presence. His voice, his breath...... It's so natural and comfortable.
Just like in that paper world just now, the first person she wanted to draw was him.
Thinking of this, Qiuqiu's heart suddenly became much more relaxed.
Yes, even if she is enlightened and can be an immortal, she is not willing to go to a place where she can't see him without him at all.
That's what he thought, too.
"Heaven and earth, I will always find you and wait for you."
Qiuqiu's eyes were hot and sour, she lowered her head and answered softly: "Okay, let's talk about it." Qiuqiu stretched out his little finger: "Pull a hook." We will never be separated again, no matter whether we go to heaven or earth, we will always be together. โ
Shi'er also stretched out her little finger, and the fingers of the two hooked together, intertwined and hooked with each other, intimate.
This kind of action is actually nothing, the two have even done more intimate things, but Qiuqiu looked at their fingers hooked together, and inexplicably felt dry mouth, her heart pounded very fast, and her face suddenly became swollen and hot.
Shi'er opened his arms and hugged her.
This hug is not the same as the last one.
Just now she was full of guilt and uneasiness, and this time...... Well, still not a little uneasy.
She thought that Shi'er must have noticed that her body temperature and heartbeat were abnormal.
But she really didn't think much about anything she shouldn't have thought about.
It is...... I just feel embarrassed.
It's really weird.
I used to think that two people were together, liked each other, and were together, it was as simple as that.
But now she felt as if she liked him more than she had been.
I like it so much that I just look at him like this, and I feel that the feelings in my heart are full and heavy, and they are about to overflow.
This affection made her a little scared.
How can you like someone like this way?
I like it so much that my heart doesn't listen to my own call.
I want to be with him all the time, and I start to miss him even if it's only a short moment when I'm apart. Even just imagining not being able to see him and being separated from him makes me feel as if I am going to be out of breath.
Yes, he's right.
She was reluctant for him to go to a strange place. We will never see each other again, we will not hear his voice, we will not see him again, and we may even never see each other.
She wants to be with him all the time, no matter when, no matter where she goes, she will never be separated.
The moonlight was like a cold veil that gently covered their bodies.
It's as if you can grab the moonlight with your hand.
Enlightenment...... What does that feel like?
After attaining enlightenment, where do people go?
Is that an end, or a new beginning?
No one can answer this question.
Qiuqiu held the ink cream around her waist.
Shang Zhen's predecessor left the ink cream to her, and he definitely didn't just want her to use the ink cream to write and draw at will.
Was there something important she was trying to convey to her?
Or is it something else?
Qiuqiu thought that maybe she also needed to retreat and take care of her mind.
She had too many doubts.
And she has met many people and many things recently, and these things have come so suddenly, she always has a feeling of being dizzy. I don't have time to think about many things, so I can only press them in my heart in a hurry. Sometimes when I look back, I always feel that there are some things that are worth thinking about and need to be understood.
But there is no time for the usual chaos and complexity.
I don't have that state of mind.
Therefore, people who are cultivators, more or less, always choose to retreat after a while.
It may be a few years, or it may be more than a decade.
"I want to retreat."
"Hmm." Qiuqiu nodded in confirmation.
Of course, she felt that her proposal might be a bit unbelievable. It is rare for young disciples like her to choose retreat. Everyone is working hard to accumulate and improve, and it is far from the depth and height of retreat.
But Shi'er groaned slightly, but nodded in affirmation of her decision: "It's okay, so have you thought of a place?" โ
"I think the seventh peak is good."
Absolutely quiet and undisturbed, and there may be some opportunities that will be encountered and triggered, such as encountering the inheritance of predecessors, or the opportunity to find and restore memories.
But Shi'er thought for a while: "Although the seventh peak is very good, there are also inappropriateness. You always need someone to protect the Dharma in your retreat, and if there are any unexpected situations, you can take care of them. If you are in retreat at the seventh peak, then who can protect the Dharma for you? โ
That's a problem, too.
Retreat is also risky, and if someone has an accident during the retreat โ in order to prevent such accidents, you need someone to be on your radar and help if something happens. Normally, when people are in retreat, they will have a fellow disciple, a teacher, or an apprentice to take up the role of protecting the Dharma.
"I'll pick a few places for you, and you can choose the last one." Shi'er said.
"It's fine."
The seventh peak can't be entered by anyone but her, and if something goes wrong with her,
