Chapter 37: Can the Dust Stop Me?
There is nothing in the world, and mediocrity disturbs itself. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 There is some truth to this statement.
At least Yechen now finds that as long as he doesn't deliberately think about the danger on both sides of the road, there seems to be no difference between the Qingyun Road in the clouds and the Qingyun Road in the mountains.
Climbing up the stairs, Yechen's mood gradually became quieter, even if the surrounding environment was very dangerous, but as long as he stayed for a long time, he would eventually develop some immunity.
Immersed in climbing, not thinking about the dangerous light on the side of the road, after a long time, Yechen finally stopped moving forward.
It wasn't because he was physically tired, nor because the road was at the end, the reason why Yechen stopped was because he saw a small line of handwriting on the bluestone staircase.
The surface of each bluestone staircase in the cloud is smooth, and there is no trace of scratching, so although the handwriting engraved in the center of the bluestone is small, it still successfully meets the eyes of the night dust.
'Ten years of detainment, nothing to gain. ’
The number of words is very small, only a short eight characters, but through these eight words, Yechen seems to see how lonely the predecessor was when he carved the words.
Do I have such a predecessor in Qingyun Dongtian? The night dust is stunned, detained for ten years, no portal, still wandering outside the fairy gate, what kind of loneliness and persistence is this?
The years are long, and I don't know how many years this line has been engraved here, and the handwriting seems a little blurred. Presumably, the predecessors of this word at that moment have long been buried in the ground. But I don't know if he succeeded in the end?
Standing in front of the handwriting and contemplating for a moment, Yechen continued to embark on the journey, he had a hunch that he might find the handwriting left by this Qingyun Cave Senior!
The road to heaven was long, and after a long time, Yechen finally found the second line of handwriting on the bluestone slab.
'Twenty years of detention, it is difficult to see the doorway. ’
Looking at this line of handwriting, Yechen was silent, he didn't expect this to be the end. Isn't 20 years enough? If you are yourself, how many years can you persevere?
Continuing to step forward, Ye Chen couldn't care about anything else at this moment, he just wanted to know what the final outcome of this senior who was engraved here.
By late evening, the third line of handwriting finally appeared.
'Thirty years of detention. ’
This time, the handwriting was very short, only five words, and although it did not say what the ending was, judging by the slightly messy nicks and unfinished words, Yechen knew that the result must have been disappointing.
If it is difficult to enter the immortal gate in this life, thirty years will be almost worth half the life of ordinary people. has been deducting for half his life, but in the end he has gained nothing, will this senior continue to persevere?
Yechen's mood was entangled, he wanted to continue to climb and see the traces left by this senior in front of him, but he was afraid that this senior would choose to give up after half his life was worthless, in that case, where this line of handwriting was, it would be the end of the road that this senior had taken.
As the sky gets late, the afterglow shines on the bluestone slab, rendering it a magnificent pale gold. Looking at the line of handwriting, Ye Chen's heart moved, just under the light of the afterglow, he found that there seemed to be other traces behind the handwriting.
Leaning down, Night Dust looked carefully next to the notch, and found that there were really faint traces remaining. The traces are very faint, if you don't look closely, it's hard to see, after years of washing, this faint trace is almost blurred, and the night dust struggles to distinguish for a long time, and finally sees what the trace represents.
Those were also two words, but the meaning of these two words made Yechen a little stunned.
'Stupid. ’
These two words are obviously not engraved by this senior who has not been allowed to enter the portal for 30 years, it seems that it looks like a naughty girl, who is angry and carved it at will.
In just seven or eight words, I don't know what kind of story was hidden back then?
Fingertips crossed the marks, feeling the shallow marks engraved on the bluestone slab, and Yechen's mood calmed down a little unconsciously. No matter what the outcome of this senior is, he has been detained for 30 years, and he has no help but cold and summer. I've only been deducted for a while, so why complain?
After taking out the dry food in the package and chewing it carefully, Yechen sat quietly for a while, and then continued to climb up in the faint night.
He had a hunch that the road was coming to an end.
Although the sight is not very good at night, it is okay to climb, as long as you are careful, you can still move forward. Only when he was sleepy, Yechen closed his eyes and rested for an hour, but now he didn't have much fear, and naturally fell asleep.
There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart. When the faint light gradually appeared, Yechen finally brought this Qingyun Road to the end.
There is no road at the end of the stairs, only a stone platform about three or four zhang wide, and there is a small stone tablet in the center of the stone platform.
With the last bit of strength, Yechen climbed to the stone platform, sat in front of the stone tablet, took a deep breath, looked at the handwriting on the stone tablet, and laughed heartily.
I want to climb high and look far away, but how can the dust stop me?
The handwriting is wild and unbridled, full of unruly meaning. This handwriting must still be left by the predecessor who has been detained for 30 years. It's just that there is no longer the confusion and loneliness of before.
After more than 30 years of hard work, I have finally come to express my grievances in my heart, hurry, hurry!
This line of pride made Yechen's heart stir, but the two small words behind this line of handwriting made Yechen feel uneasy.
It's still the word 'stupid', but behind the two words of Qingxiu, Yechen only felt how 'she' was happy and happy for this senior back then.
"I am a mortal, but my heart is also to the sky. This Qingyun Road has been built in my heart, even if I detain my life, I will die without regrets. ”
Night Dust's eyes were bright and he whispered to himself. Then he knelt down respectfully in front of the stone tablet and paused three times.
After kowtowing, Yechen wanted to turn around and leave, and came to the end of this Qingyun Road, although he did not raise his eyes to look around, but he had already seen the most beautiful scenery.
Just as Yechen was about to return along Qingyun Road, his footsteps suddenly paused, his eyes slowly closed, and Yechen muttered with a smile: "I saw it." ”
"He actually succeeded?"
The Great Elder's hand stroking his beard paused, and he said with a slight shock.
"As long as you see through it, you will naturally succeed. Judging by his state at this time, it is only a matter of time before he succeeds, and it is normal to break through now. ”
The old man took a sip of tea and laughed heartily.
"Has Senior Brother Night successfully enlightened the Divine Wheel?"
Seeing what the two old men said, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but ask.
It turned out that since the Great Elder came out of the customs last night, he and the Old Ancestor had been maintaining this posture of looking at the sky, and only half a day later, the disciples in the cave knew that Ye Chen was climbing the Qingyun Road, and the Great Elder and the Old Ancestor were paying close attention to him.
It happened that Liu Ruyan's cultivation had encountered a bottleneck in the past two days, so she simply stopped cultivating, but accompanied the Great Elder and the Old Ancestor, wanting to learn the news related to Yechen as soon as possible.
Liu Ruyan has always had a good impression of Yechen, and she also wants Yechen to be able to step into the world of cultivation, instead of working hard but not being able to enter the door. As the Great Elder said, a person's path to heaven is too lonely. It's best to have one or two acquaintances with you all the way.
