Chapter 158: Farewell
The mountain demon can be in the temple in a grand manner, one relies on his magic weapon, the second is the loose management of the underworld, and the third is the weakness of the righteous people in the world, Xue Chen believes that there are still many cases like the mountain demon, if it weren't for that oath, Xue Chen may not care, but even if there is the persecution of the oath, Xue Chen still feels that it is not important to destroy these ghosts, the important thing is the clarity of the world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The world is turbid, and even if you destroy hundreds of thousands of ghosts, you can't eradicate these evils.
Xiao Heyu's human skin was discovered by the servants of the Xiao Mansion in the early morning of the next day, and the entire city of Hangzhou was shaken, and Nie Shusheng, who had a direct conflict with Xiao Heyu, was naturally invited to the prison.
Helpless, Xue Chen had to reappear and go to Jinling to use some spells, so that Xiao Fu believed that Xiao Heyu was indeed killed by demons and had nothing to do with Nie Shusheng, and only after releasing Nie Shusheng.
After more than ten days in prison, Nie Shusheng's whole person seems to have lost his soul, whether this matter has anything to do with him, his future is ruined, the imperial examination is hopeless, there is no way to learn, what else can he do in this life?
"A little prison took away your soul?" Xue Chen appeared silently beside Nie Shusheng on the riverside and spoke.
Nie Shusheng was stunned for a moment, and then found out that it was the voice of his senior, and his originally somewhat annoyed expression also fell, and he said in a low voice: "The scholar is still grateful for the help of his seniors, but the scholar is inspirational, but now because of this obstruction, I am afraid that it is hopeless." ”
"The so-called frustration in the workplace, the triumph in love, and the interdependence of blessings and misfortunes, may not be as bad as you think." Xue Chen laughed.
Nie Shusheng didn't know what the workplace was, but he still roughly judged that it should be related to the imperial examination, and he understood the love field, but how was the love field proud? Now there are rumors in Hangzhou that Miss Xiaowan has been ransomed, if it weren't for Miss Xiaowan's will, then there would be nothing to be happy about.
"What the predecessors said may be true, but for scholars, the people who care about them are gone." Nie Shusheng said with a tone that saw through Hongchen, if Master Baiyun appeared in front of him at this time, Xue Chen had no doubt that this kid would escape into the Buddha Gate.
"Since the person you care about is gone, then I won't return this person to you." Xue Chen smiled mysteriously and left without looking back.
Nie Shusheng turned around to look, there was no figure of any seniors, but there was a shadow standing by the lake, staring at him playfully.
"Miss Wan? Aren't you redeemed? Nie Shusheng said weakly.
"It was my predecessor who helped me redeem myself, and he said it was what you meant." Miss Xiaowan blushed and said shyly.
Does Xiao Wan like Nie Shusheng?
The answer is absolutely yes, otherwise, with Nie Shusheng's previous state, how could he get Xiaowan's gift of paintings among thousands of talents, but she is a woman from Xianglou, and Nie Shusheng is poor, the two have no possibility of being together at all, and it is also for Nie Shusheng's good, so this affection has always been buried in my heart.
And what about Nie Shusheng? Naturally, he also likes Xiaowan, otherwise he wouldn't always pull down his face and go to the luxurious Xianglou to eat and drink.
"Scholar, don't say that your predecessors didn't take care of you, under your bed, there are 100 taels of gold, 1,000 taels of silver, and there is a method of making wonderful paper, you and Miss Xiaowan live well, I treat you like this, and I am worthy of your ancestor Ning Caichen."
Xue Chen's voice gradually drifted away, Nie Shusheng and Xiao Wan heard the prestige, and the surroundings were vast, but there was no Xue Chen's figure, the two of them bowed respectfully and kowtowed three times to thank Xue Chen for his kindness.
After seeing the old man, Xue Chen returned to Kunlun, the world of A Chinese Ghost Story has already traveled by himself, there is nothing worth seeing, Kunlun's aura is abundant, and his cultivation is much stronger than outside, and Xue Chen is also afraid of delaying the vaccination of Yan Chixia and Shifang, so it is always right to prepare early.
While Xue Chen was waiting while cultivating, Yan Chixia and Shifang returned to Kunlun as promised a year and a half later.
Compared with the two years strong, Yan Chixia has not changed much, but Shifang is different, not only has her complexion changed from white and tender to dark, her body is also stronger, and her face is more mature, not as dull and silly as before.
"Master, I haven't seen you for more than a year, but your demeanor is still the same." Yan Chixia laughed, ran to Xue Chen and said.
"How much?" Xue Chen sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and asked.
This question stopped Yan Chixia, he really hadn't counted how many demons and monsters he had descended, he made one up by himself, and he was afraid of bad things in Shifang, but fortunately, Shifang was more serious, not only recorded the demons and monsters that fell truthfully on a piece of paper, but also marked the difficulty level of ghosts, this Xue Chen didn't teach him, it seems that following Xue Chen these days, Shifang has learned a lot.
"Sixteen? Well, not bad, not bad. ”
Xue Chen nodded with satisfaction, sixteen is definitely not much, but all the records of the ten parties are ghosts and monsters with some ability, like those who can be solved with a single demon slaying talisman, they are embarrassed to write up.
"In the next few days, stay in Kunlun for the time being, continue to exercise, and I will tell you something when the time comes."
At this time, there was still some time before Xue Chen left, Xue Chen did not rush to inject the two of them, but polished their bodies as before, especially Shifang, there must be no mistakes in the process of injecting vaccines, otherwise the death will be extremely ugly.
The two also understood that there must be a reason why Xue Chen repeatedly asked them to exercise their physique, and they had already felt the benefits of being physically strong in the process of subduing demons and subduing demons, but they thought that what Xue Chen asked for was obviously not these, and they were also very desperate, and they also wanted to see what the reason why Xue Chen had been letting them exercise.
The hard work of the two coupled with the identity of the proud son of the sky has finally reaped the rewards.
A year later, Yan Chixia's physical fitness has reached six times, fully meeting the standard of injection, and Shifang's has also reached five times, basically meeting the requirements, Xue Chen also informed them of the purpose of exercising their physical bodies in their puzzled eyes.
"Yan Chixia, tell me, what is the purpose of cultivation?" Once upon a time, Xuyi Zhenren also asked Xue Chen the same question, and now, he wanted to throw this question to Yan Chixia.
"Naturally, it's to subdue demons and eliminate demons." Yan Chixia said without hesitation.
Cultivation here can't be immortal, so the good thing is naturally to subdue demons and eliminate demons.
"It's too fake, the master wants to listen to the true answer in your heart." Xue Chen shook his head, this was definitely not the true answer in Yan Chixia's heart.
"I want to hear it, master." Yan Chixia raoed her head, looked at Xue Chen, and then looked at Shifang, and said ashamedly: "Master, now that the world is so chaotic, cultivation is naturally to save your life, and you can make a little money by the way." ”
It's a vulgar answer, but it's very much in line with Yan Chixia's true thoughts in her heart, and it's also what most people think.
"What about yours? Fong. Xue Chen turned his head and asked Shifang.
"Cultivation is naturally to seek the true meaning." Shifang made a dumb riddle and said.
What is the true meaning? What is the true meaning of seeking?
Shifang didn't say it, Xue Chen also understood that Shifang had a goal in his heart and was reliable.
"Then the teacher is asking you, Yan Chixia, how can you cultivate the Great Dao?"
Xue Chen smiled slightly, such a smile seemed to Yan Chixia, he understood, he felt that as long as he answered this question, then the answer would be the answer to the physical body.
"The Great Dao is so easy to cultivate, even the head master of the Freedom Sect who has reached the Ziyuan Realm can't transcend life and death, let alone us! But if you want me to say, as long as there is enough time, then the road can be done. Yan Chixia thought about it and said her answer.
Xue Chen didn't ask Shifang this question, but continued Yan Chixia's words and said: "Yes, the Great Dao is far away, but it is not unreachable, after all, it is that mortals have a short lifespan and can't touch the edge of it, you always ask why the teacher has been helping you cultivate the physical body, and today the teacher will tell you the answer." ”
"There is a bottle of immortal blood in the hand of the teacher, which can increase the longevity of three or four hundred years in vain, so do you think the Great Dao can be achieved?" Xue Chen directly threw out this temptation and stared at the two of them intently.
Sure enough, when Yan Chixia heard that she could increase her lifespan by three or four hundred years, her eyes widened, and her mouth couldn't close in surprise or surprise, even Shifang, who was a lot more mature and more calm.
"But the immortal bloodline is very strong, and when you take it, you will die immediately, and only if the physical body reaches four times or more than that of ordinary people, it is possible to take it successfully, and this is also the reason why the teacher has always let you cultivate the physical body." Xue Chen said slowly.
"Senior, but why did you choose the two of us?" Shifang's brain is already smart, he used to be stupid and stupid just because he lacked earthly experience, and after more than a year of earthly demon subjugation and demon eradication, he has seen a lot of people's warmth and coldness, and his intelligence immediately showed the difference with Yan Chixia.
"Because the teacher once swore to the immortals that he was bound to pacify the demons, but now the righteous path is declining, the evil way is prosperous, and the teacher's mental strength is insufficient, so he can only choose someone who is destined to help, and the two of you, the teacher believes, you will not live up to the teacher." Xue Chen stared at Shifang's eyes and said sincerely.
When Shifang heard this, he was stunned, and then bowed his head and bowed: "Master, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”
Xue Chen smiled heartily, for so many years, Shifang refused to worship him as a teacher, and he didn't expect to include him in the door when he left, Xue Chen was really happy, after all, people have feelings, for the two of them, Xue Chen really invested a lot, and even gave up cultivation for this.
"Haha, Shifang, you worship me as a teacher, presumably Master Baiyun will not agree, but I am reluctant to let you go, you and I will treat each other as a master and apprentice, but on the Buddhist side, you can't forget."
"Master, how can I listen to the tone of your voice, I feel that you are going to leave us." Yan Chixia is not stupid, he sees that the master is really happy from the bottom of his heart, but there is a sadness in the words he says, there must be something.
"Yes, the teacher is leaving, going to a far place, and this place will be handed over to you." Xue Chen said.
The two of them were not much surprised, and Xue Chen's series of words just now made them feel a little different.
Could it be that this is the parting of the disciple Yichengshi?
"Don't be sad, you two have a lot of skills, it only takes a while, presumably the achievements will definitely exceed those of the teacher, the teacher will come back, the teacher hopes that the day he comes back, he can see a bright and bright world, can you agree to be a teacher?"
The two nodded in unison, without rhetoric, everything was silent.
The injection of the booster vaccine was very simple, and the whole process was surprisingly smooth, and after talking to the two for a few hours, Xue Chen planned to leave after feeling that there was nothing abnormal in their bodies.
"Two apprentices, who have known each other for several years, must finally say goodbye, don't worry, we will meet in the future."
"There are 10,000 taels of gold and countless jade artifacts buried in the backyard of the Dharma Weapon Sect for the teacher, which is enough for you to spend several lifetimes, but the teacher still hopes that the two of you will not use these yellow and white things for yourself one day."
After speaking, under the gaze of Yan Chixia and Shifang, it slowly dissipated and disappeared between heaven and earth.
