Chapter Ninety-Five: Only She Is an Exception
Xie Guhan felt that his body had gradually lost its temperature at this time, and his fingers were also red and swollen from the cold, but he was punishing himself like a ruthless one.
In the game in the door, he lost to his opponent because of his carelessness, which made him feel very guilty, and his mother was even more angry with him after learning about it, and he never let his mother down, so he punished himself like this.
After all, he is strict with himself as the successor of the sect all the time, and he does not allow himself to make a trace of omissions and mistakes.
And this time, because of the loss of the game, he felt very guilty and regretful.
He lost to a senior brother who practiced swords ten years earlier than him in this competition, but he was proud to think that he was the best of the younger generation, and he was the future sect master heir of the Sword Sect and should not lose to anyone, but he lost to the senior brother who was ten years more experienced than him in this sect competition, which made him feel very indignant in his heart.
Although his excellent performance seems to be very good in the eyes of others, because he has high expectations for himself, coupled with his mother's strict advice to him day and night, he is more and more pursuit of perfection and more competitive.
So he was young but not happy for a day, the only obsession in his heart was to keep practicing the sword, and always become the master of the Sword Sect like his father.
White snowflakes fluttered all over the sky, and a bitter cold wind blew out from all directions.
Xie Guhan seemed to be tireless, repeating the same move over and over again, until he was exhausted and his fingers were so frozen that he couldn't bend and stretch, he knelt on the snow weakly, looked up at the vast sky, and countless snowflakes fell from the sky on his face and blurred his vision.
He suddenly felt very lost, he didn't know what was the meaning of practicing the sword like this every day and night, he only knew that he wanted to fulfill his mother's expectations, but the more he continued to practice like this, the more confused he felt, what was the meaning of pursuing the so-called seeing for him?
But since he had this idea, he felt very guilty in his heart, but his mother pinned all her hopes on him, how could he have doubts about the way of the sword he was cultivating? But he couldn't control the doubts he had in his heart, and he would think about it every day during his breaks.
What is the point of practicing swords on your own?
He kept thinking about this question, but he couldn't find an answer, and he could only think about these things when he was constantly practicing the sword and cultivating.
Later, as he grew older, at the age of sixteen, he could take over the tasks assigned by the Sword Sect every day, some of which were to be carried out on the mainland.
So he enthusiastically signed up, but even if he wanted to sign up, he was immediately stopped by his mother.
He didn't understand why his mother didn't let him go to the main road, but left him on this isolated island in the sea, and kept practicing his sword.
The female relatives still said something bitter about him in a tone that everything was for his good, and when she saw that he seemed to be unrepentant, she put on a serious look on weekdays, and reprimanded him fiercely.
Whenever Xie Guhan saw his mother say this, he felt very helpless, he had no way to refuse any request made by his mother, since his desire to go to the mainland to carry out a mission could not be realized, and it would make his mother sad, then it was better to stay here and practice swords.
Xie Guhan compromised again, but the growing dissatisfaction with his mother in his heart continued to grow with each refusal.
He really wanted to see what the outside world was like, he wanted to know how prosperous things were on land that he had never seen before, even if he lived like a starry moon in this sword sect, but his heart still longed for freedom, hoping that his mother would not kidnap him in the name of loving him again, and he didn't want to practice swords every day and night.
Even so, Xie Guhan was still used to suppressing his innermost thoughts, but when he practiced the sword, he condensed all the resentment and dissatisfaction on the tip of the sword, swung it hard, and released his long-suppressed emotions in the sword moves.
The last snowflakes finally fell, and the white snow covered every part of the Sword Sect on the sea.
Even the original turquoise bricks and tiles were covered in snow, turning into crystal clear rubble.
Just then, he heard a clear footstep slowly approaching him.
"Why do you always have to suppress yourself like that? You've worked hard enough, and sometimes you probably shouldn't punish yourself like this, it's not your fault, why push yourself so hard? ”
The woman's beautiful voice sounded behind itself. Xie Guhan turned around and was a little nervous, because he had just withdrawn the spiritual power of his whole body, and he didn't even notice that someone was actually approaching him at this time.
Xie Guhan subconsciously thought that it was a woman who was infatuated with him and took the opportunity to disturb him when he was practicing swords, and took the opportunity to confess to him, so he said impatiently, "Get out, I didn't order that no one should be disturbed while I was practicing swords!" What are you doing in here?! Beware that my sword doesn't have eyes, and I will cut off your head directly! ”
Xie Guhan was already dissatisfied, and he was very annoyed when he was being disturbed when he was quiet. There was a thick anger in the tone.
But just as he saw the face of the woman behind him, his eyes suddenly changed for a moment.
He said with some surprise, "It's you!" I seem to have seen you somewhere, I always remember you. ”
Xie Guhan saw Ye Pinru's familiar and pure and moving face, and his eyes immediately straightened, the woman in front of him was white and beautiful, her body was soft, and her crystal clear skin was very fair, and she looked more and more snow-white against the background of the snow, and her cherry-like mouth made people want to bully it when they looked at it.
Ye Pinru smiled lightly when he saw him, "The young master didn't recognize the wrong person, I just care about the young master being so tired and punishing himself so much, why should I make myself so hard in the end?" ”
"Most things in this world can't go as expected, why do you have such high requirements to demand yourself all the time, you and I are both monks, if you can't soar, you will be just a speck of dust in this world, why let yourself live so painfully? As for what other people expect from you, it is just what others think, and the young master should find the path that he wants to pursue in his heart, so that it can be easier. ”
The words that came out of the mouth of the woman in front of her were pleasant to the ear, and they spoke straight to Xie Guhan's heart.
The woman in front of him looked so similar to the girl he remembered who helped him retrieve the lost treasure, but why didn't he even know the other party's name?
But what she said made him feel so warm, no one had ever cared about him like her, and no one cared about his feelings, everyone either respected him or was afraid of him as the young master of the Sword Sect and the future heir. He is always viewed by others with a filter in his eyes, not as a real person.
But the girl in front of him is different from everyone else, she will comfort herself like a friend, and she will care about herself, unlike other people who either make demands on him or have expectations in their eyes, which makes him feel a lot of pressure.
She is the only exception.
He is also very tired sometimes, but he just wants to be a real person who is no different from other people, why do other children have to practice swords alone in this lonely person when they are young and playing, and one practice is ten hours.
In the eyes of others, all the people who saw him glamorous, and even called him a genius, were all exchanged for his hard work and sweat by practicing swords day and night.
Why can someone else's genius summarize all their efforts and dedication, no one sees their silent efforts behind their backs, all their efforts and sadness, only others see the brilliance they showed in front of them at that time.
He didn't understand why everyone was so superficial, only seeing the talents that others showed at that time, but not caring about the efforts made by others over and over again in those days when no one cared about them?
And he not only did not have a friend around him because of his sword practice, but also because of his mother's restrictions on himself, which led to his childhood and his sword practice on this snow-capped mountain for more than ten years, he felt that it was too boring to live like this, he did not have a happy childhood like other children, nor did he have a confidant who understood himself like other young people.
When everyone approached him, they were either in awe or jealous, and he had long been accustomed to seeing these people in the wind, so he felt very disgusted with the people around him who deliberately approached him.
But the girl who suddenly appeared in front of him not only did not make him feel disgusted, but also made him feel a trace of warmth, this kind of warmth that he had never experienced in the past ten years of life, this kind of warmth made him feel that he was a real living person, not a puppet who could only practice swords.
Xie Guhan finally felt that he was so tired, and he also wanted to take a rest.
So he reactivated the spiritual power of his whole body, and the frostbite on his hands was cured in an instant, and the heavy snow around him melted and dissolved at that moment in an instant.
He looked at the girl who was smiling at him, looked at him, a pair of crystal clear eyes, and couldn't help asking, "I take the liberty of asking the girl's name, I wonder if the girl can tell me?" ”
Ye Pinru saw that he asked his name again, smiled lightly, and then changed into a disappearing snowflake and drifted away with the wind.
After all, only every time he fell into crisis and difficulty, he would come out and say a few words of comfort to him, or help him do something, that he would be impressed, as long as he remembered himself, and when Xie Guhan woke up from the magic realm in his heart, he would be unforgettable.
As soon as the picture turned, Xie Guhan had grown into a twenty-year-old youth.
Today is the day he is crowned as the successor of the Sword Sect.
Countless white cranes hovered around the island, shuttling between the misty clouds, and from time to time let out a few high-pitched and clear crane chirps.
Many monks of the Sword Sect came to the main hall of the Sword Sect to watch the ceremony.
And Xie Guhan was standing in the center of the main hall at this time, in the middle of the round platform, and opposite him was the current Sword Sect Master, that is, Xie Guhan's father.
Xie Guhan still remembers that he was not impressed by his father since he was a child, and even when he was twenty years old, he had seen his father only a handful of times.
And this time, the father, who had always been serious, seemed to have a faint smile on his face, but this smile was very faint and fleeting.
He watched his father slowly walk in front of him, then pulled out a spike from his saber and handed it to Xie Guhan.
"From today onwards, you will officially be the heir of my Sword Sect, and after that, you will be involved in the management of this large and small affairs, if there are any tasks in the Sword Sect, you must also actively participate, and you must not be closed all day long like the previous twenty years, just practicing swords. The Father expects high from you. Don't let your father down again. ”
After the Sword Sect Sect Master finished explaining these words, he immediately turned around and left, not even wanting to stay here for a second.
Xie Guhan didn't understand why his father was so cold to him and his mother, but now that he has grown up and seen his father again, Xie Guhan saw his father's disgust in his eyes from his father's eyes.
But Xie Guhan knew that his father's disgust for him for no reason was not because of his own reasons, but because his mother used to be with his father. An unspeakable incident took place, and since then the relationship between father and mother has become cold, and the mother has become more and more paranoid and extreme.
This is also the reason why, even after Xie Guhan became an adult, his mother always tried her best to control Xie Guhan's every move.
It's just that Xie Guhan, who is now an adult, finally has the ability to choose what she wants to do, even if it is her mother, she doesn't necessarily have to follow his instructions, after all, most of her mother's instructions, in Xie Guhan's opinion, are mostly out of her own selfishness.
And this time, he finally had the opportunity to go to the mainland to see how the immortal cultivators on the land cultivated.
There is also a chance to go to the land to find your own swordsmanship, after all, although the Sea Sword Sect specializes in swordsmanship, the inheritance comes from the mainland after all, so the source of everything must also be found on land.
Although her mother was extremely reluctant to leave the Sword Sect by herself and go to the land to find a suitable inheritance of exercises, she couldn't interfere with Xie Guhan's decision after all, so she revealed to Xie Guhan what happened before she left, and told Gu Han that she must find Xie Wuya's mother and son and kill them to prevent future troubles.
As soon as Xie Guhan heard that the crux of his mother's troubles for so many years was here, he made up his mind that he must get rid of the mother and son, after all, he never wanted to repeat the monotonous and boring life he had lived before.
As soon as the picture turned, the girl's figure appeared in front again.
At this time, she was dressed in an aqua blue robe, and greeted him on the shore with a smile.
"Brother Guhan, have you finally come to me?"
The girl in front of her spoke warmly, her eyes were clever, and her posture was slender and charming. The breeze blows up her sleeves, adding to the charm.
But in the next moment, a sharp sword shining with cold light pierced the chest of the girl in front of her.
