"The title of stargazer sounds good, but it is far from that glamorous. You and Ye Boy are just getting started, and they don't understand the hardships yet. Ye boy has a good temperament, and it's easy to say, but you have a good temperament...... To be honest, what you want me to say is really inappropriate. Ge Tongshan glanced at Lin Yufei, "Your teacher should have also said that stargazers are very unpopular in China, and now there are only stargazers left in the world, I don't know if I can count more than twenty." The reason why most capable people are reluctant to choose this path is mostly not because of concepts, but more because they can't stick to it. ”

"Persistence?"

"The capable people are all from ordinary people, who doesn't have seven emotions and six desires? Who doesn't have an important person? They don't want to treat ordinary people as their kind, not because they don't have an object of attention, but just because they can't persevere. Ge Tongshan sneered, "I obviously want to protect, but I have to succumb to the eyes of others, and I have good thoughts, but I have to compromise with the desires in my heart." For them, the great power becomes an excuse for them to succumb to their desires, and in order to gain the approval of their so-called kind, they prefer to keep what they value deep in their hearts and never think about it again for the rest of their lives. This is the society of the able, who reject stargazers not out of disgust, but simply out of fear. ”

"That's why your teacher will have such a high status, even though he never thought about it. The old guy's cultivation is not ranked in the front among the capable people, and even in the domestic Daomen, although most of the capable people do not agree with him, but they will never lose respect. After all, there are only a few people who can persist in being stargazers for 2,000 years in the world. ”

"It turns out that the teacher is so famous. Lin Yufei said, "But does this have anything to do with my problem?"

That's it. Ge Tongshan made a gesture of calmness, "The reason why I say this is just to tell you that to be a stargazer, there must always be a trade-off. Your teacher has lived for 2,000 years, do you think he doesn't have seven emotions and six desires? Although I don't know very well, I also know that your teacher also had a family before he cultivated. I don't know why he's alone now, but don't you want to guess?"

Lin Yufei was stunned. Yes, how could it be that he didn't give it up, could it be that the teacher also gave up his own family back then? Because he had done it, could he justifiably arrange for others to do the same? What about the senior brother? What about the senior sister?

He just thought so blankly that he forgot to speak. Ge Tongshan watched from the side, watching the expression on Lin Yufei's face keep changing, but it did not develop in a relaxed direction, he was annoyed in his heart, and secretly sighed, thinking that he was really not suitable for comforting people. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but get anxious, "Boy, don't you want to fight with me again! If you fight, even if you can't figure it out, your heart will be much more comfortable, right?"

"Fight?" Lin Yufei was suddenly interrupted from his thoughts, but he was a little dazed when he heard this. I thought to myself, what kind of god turn is this? Didn't he come to extricate himself? Did he just want to come and fight with himself? Before he could think of how to respond, Yun Huan's voice suddenly came from the darkness: "Ge Tongshan, what else can you do besides fighting? Are you here to add fuel to the fire?"

Both of them got up in shock, Ge Tongshan scratched his head, and his face was somewhat embarrassed: "I knew you were coming, what is Lao Tzu coming for!"

"Stinky boy, it will cause chaos to people!" Yun also looked at the direction in which Ge Tongshan disappeared and snorted angrily, and turned his head to look at Lin Yufei: "There are a lot of dissatisfaction with me, right?

"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't figured it out yet. Lin Yufei bowed to Yun Huan, then straightened up, but his eyes refused to look at Yun Huan, but swept to the side. Looking at him like this, Yun still sighed secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the twelve-year-old child when he left fifteen years ago, obviously disappointed, obviously wanting to keep it, but he refused to say half a word, only hiding all his emotions in his heart, thinking that others could not see it.

"Sit down. Yun also took the lead in sitting down and patted the empty space beside him, "The teacher is also a little anxious during this time. I basically heard what Ge Xiaozi said just now, and what he said was roughly right, so I won't repeat it. It's up to you to decide what to do. ”

"Yes, teacher. Lin Yufei replied in a low voice.

The clouds haven't spoken yet. He reached into his arms, touched it a few times, took out a palm-sized sandalwood box, and threw it to Lin Yufei: "This is the elixir that your master left me back then." Each one can last for ten years. However, since entering the Jindan realm, the teacher has not used it again, because after entering the Jindan realm, the lifespan can reach a very long time, and these life-sustaining pills will not be used for the time being. ”

"Is there really a medicine that can prolong life?" Lin Yufei was stunned. These words shocked him a little, so much so that the things that had just been troubled were put aside. The box opened, and inside were six rows of soybean-sized grooves, ten in each row, only the top row was still full, and there were two more in the second row, which were blue-green, soybean-sized pills.

"These pills should be taken by the junior disciple to analyze the ingredients. Lin Yufei picked up a pill and looked at it over and over again, muttering quietly in his mouth. "He's tried it a long time ago, but it didn't work. Yun also said, "In the past two thousand years, the teacher has taken the initiative to find it, and others have borrowed it for research, no less than dozens of people, even including Ge Xiaozi's ancestor Ge Xuanzhen, but none of them have succeeded. The material made of the pill is just an ordinary herb that solidifies the essence of Peiyuan, which is the consensus of everyone. What really works is the power of the concept contained in the pill, which transcends the rules. ”

"The power of concepts?"

"Your master ancestor himself is a person who has the ability to hold the power of growth, and the scale of his fragments is not below Jing Hong, and the life continuation pill contains the growth power that he infused, so it will have the effect of growth. Yun returned the word, "Within the rules, there is nothing that can surpass the rules." ”

"That's right. Lin Yufei agreed, covered the box, and handed it back, but was pushed back by Yunhuan: "You keep it, the teacher doesn't need these things anymore." ”

"No, teacher, aren't you about to end your life? There are still twelve in this box, which can prolong your life for one hundred and twenty years, and maybe you can break through the Yuan Infant Realm." Lin Yufei was puzzled, "Teacher, you need these things more, right?"

"Two reasons. Yun Huan smiled on his face and raised two fingers: "First, the time it takes to break through to the Yuanying Realm is not at all comparable to the impact of the Jindan Realm, the teacher has been working hard for 1,400 years, not to mention another 120 years, there will be no results for another 300 years; Jing Hong has the ability to grow, don't say that his qualifications are far superior to mine, and he is not even inferior to you, even if he has such qualifications as me, he has enough longevity to cultivate to a higher realm, as long as he can often use his ability. However, because of the existence of the power of destruction, even if you no longer use it, the power of destruction will gradually erode your body, causing your lifespan to be shortened, and even your cultivation will be affected. So these twelve pills can be regarded as some compensation from the teacher, although if it really comes to that point, it will be useless. Speaking of this, Yun Huan's face turned positive: "This incident is extraordinary, it is not handled properly, and the destruction of two or three cities is light." So if necessary, your destructive power, the teacher will inevitably ask you to use it. And what the teacher said to you in the afternoon, although I knew that it would make you uncomfortable, but to be honest, the teacher didn't mean to give up that idea until now. I don't know if you have anything in mind, and you don't have to say it. We have chosen this path, and we must have the consciousness to go on, at least your brother and I have not changed our minds. And your path needs to be chosen by yourself. ”

Lin Yufei's heart sank. Because the emotion brought by the life-sustaining pill gradually faded again, the uncomfortable feeling from before came back to the surface. Without waiting for him to react, Yun continued: "Actually, if we really guess correctly, it is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

Lin Yufei was stunned. Yun Huan's words brought him a glimmer of hope, and suddenly remembered what Yun Huan had said a few days ago, and his heart was a little excited, because another possibility was finally like the sunshine piercing the clouds, and the haze in his heart was dispelled a little. Sure enough, Yun continued: "If it's really someone close to you, wouldn't it be more convenient for us to convince him to come to our side? In that case, it would be a great good thing, both for you and for the group of stargazers. ”

Lin Yufei didn't speak immediately, but the expression on his face that gradually relaxed already spoke for itself. Seeing his happy appearance, Yun Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Of course he knew what Lin Yufei was thinking, after all, two thousand years of life experience were there. That's why I stopped my cultivation and ran out in the middle of the night to find a way to appease this troubled disciple. Now that the goal has been achieved, he is naturally determined: "Okay, since you have figured it out, then go back and rest, you will be busy tomorrow." ”

"Teacher, aren't you going back?"

"The air is good tonight, and the teacher plans to practice here. You go back first. ”

Lin Yufei agreed, turned around and left the gymnasium. Yun was still standing in place, quietly watching the disciple's back disappear, and the smile on his face also retracted: "Come out." ”

Zhang Zhongjian's figure appeared behind him, but he didn't salute, but stood beside Yun Huan, looking at the direction where Lin Yufei disappeared: "Is it really okay to give him a painting cake like this?"

"What do you mean?" Yun asked faintly.

"Teacher, you are asking knowingly. Zhang Zhongjian sighed, "Judging from the situation during this time, the scale of that holder's creation fragment is surprisingly large, and it is obvious that he has begun to lose control, and it is only a matter of time before he completely loses control." At that time, all we can do is to wipe out with all our might, and there is no possibility of persuasion at all. Didn't you give him a big pie?"

"As long as this incident can be resolved, even if he wants to kill me later, it's up to him. The power of destruction is in the body, even if it is a life-sustaining pill, it is actually useless. Wouldn't it be the best if this event ended up being what we envisioned?" Yun also said lightly, "Heir, we still have Jing Hong. ”

Zhang Zhongjian fell silent and stopped talking. Tonight was cloudy, starless and moonless, with a breeze in the darkness and the rustling of grass leaves, and nothing else.

"Teacher," Zhang Zhongjian broke the silence in a low voice, "what are people like us?"

"Don't say such stupid things. Yun also said lightly, "From the day we made our choice, there was no way back." There is only one road ahead of us, and even if we abandon everything, we must go on. Otherwise, what's the point of stargazers?"

"Yes. ”

The wind stopped, and there was no sound in the endless darkness.
