Chapter 66 The Past
It's hard to say goodbye when you meet, and don't dream of Zen with a cup of floating life.
Talking and laughing about the past, reincarnation for thousands of years.
When I blurted out "Xiao Yu! At that time, the woman named Li Mengyu who was standing opposite me laughed out loud, and then nodded incessantly and said, "Xiao Hyunzi, you finally recognized me, it's really stupid." ”
After getting Xiao Yu's personal confirmation, and glancing at Xiao De beside him, he also smiled and nodded to me.
I looked at Xiao Yu in surprise, opened my mouth wide, couldn't believe my eyes, and blurted out: "Xiao Yu is really you, why didn't I know that you were a female crane!" "As soon as I said this, I knew that something was wrong, and I was leaking my mouth.
Sure enough, Xiao Yu on the other side heard me say this, gritted his teeth angrily, stepped forward and slapped me on the back of the head, "Ouch! I was wrong! I covered my head in pain, begging for mercy in my mouth, I was fighting with Xiao Yu, and I didn't have the same life when we first met.
Xiao De laughed on the side, and did not stop our frolic, because, after all, our relationship really goes back to thousands of years, we laughed for a while, or Xiao De stepped forward to stop us, and said: "Okay, you stop for a while, here is the matter, Xiao Hyunzi, it's not too early, you better go home first, this is not a place to stay for a long time, after all, this is just one' Parallel space' is just that, it's not very safe, I'll come to pick you up at home this Saturday, go to my house, I'll give you a thorough explanation, because, you must have too many things to ask me and Xiao Yu, okay! Let's get out of here first! As he spoke, Xiao De looked at Xiao Yu beside him.
Xiao Yu also nodded and said, "Xiao Hyunzi, you go back and recuperate well, and you will know the ins and outs of the matter on Saturday, so let's talk about it in detail that day." He winked at me playfully as he spoke.
Of course, I also knew that this was not a place to talk, so I nodded in agreement to leave, but before they could leave, I stopped them and said, "Xiaode, Xiaoyu, it's good to see you again!" Pick me up early on Saturday! "After saying that, I withdrew from this 'parallel space', Xiao De and Xiao Yu looked at the place where I disappeared, they also showed a sweet smile, glanced at each other, what I didn't expect was that they left hand in hand.
When I got home, it was very late, fortunately my parents had fallen asleep, otherwise I would have been shocked to see the blood stains on my body, I didn't dare to delay, immediately threw all the clothes into the washing machine, and quickly took a shower in the bathroom, and when everything was done, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I went back to my room, although my body was a little tired, and I vomited a lot of blood tonight, but as a cultivator, my physical fitness was still fine, and my vitality was not much damaged.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, I calmed my mind, thinking about all the experiences of the past two days, I really have a feeling of being separated from the world, being able to see Xiaode and Xiaoyu again, it means that the dream I had before, everything that happened in that dream is real, but what makes me really puzzled is the old man in white, even in a dream, I have never met again, what is going on? On Saturday, I asked Xiao De and Xiao Yu if they should know where the old man in white was, right? I thought about this question and went into a state of deep meditation.
The next day, when I woke up from meditation, the energy I had spent in the fight yesterday had basically been replenished, and my injuries had basically recovered.
In the next few days, I repeated the life of three o'clock and one line every day, although it was a bit boring, but I slowly got used to this rhythm of life, and soon the day of Saturday came.
On Saturday morning, I received a call from Xiaode, saying that I would go downstairs to my house in a while, I explained the situation to my parents in advance, and I didn't eat at home at noon, maybe my parents were also used to my current form of busyness, and they didn't care too much, just told me to pay attention to safety on the road, so I went downstairs to wait.
It didn't take long for an off-road vehicle to stop in front of me, and Xiao De opened the window, poked his head out, and said, "Xiao Hyunzi, get in the car, let's go!" "Okay," I happily opened the door and sat in the passenger seat.
Xiaode's car drove fast, I got in the car only to know that Xiaode's home lives in the suburbs of our city, when the car drove into his community, I found that although it is a suburb, but this is the city's latest villa area, where people live are basically the city's rich and face-leading figures.
After the car slowly drove into the villa area, it stopped in front of a villa, we just got out of the car, the door of the villa was opened from the inside, and the door was opened by no one else or Xiao Yu, I saw her wearing an apron, which should be preparing lunch.
I saw that it was Xiao Yu who opened the door, so I half-jokingly said, "What's the matter, Xiao Yu is now a housewife, and she can cook, I really didn't expect it!" Ha ha. ”
Xiao Yu scolded with a smile: "I hate it, you guys come in first, let you try my craft for a while, and see if you still say no." ”
When I entered the villa, I found that Xiaode's house was very high-end, a bit of classical Chinese style, and there were several ancient landscape paintings on the walls, which looked very elegant.
When I sat down in the living room, I saw a huge wedding photo hanging on the wall in the center, I took a closer look at it was no one else, it was Xiao De and Xiao Yu, I looked at them in surprise, they nodded with red faces, I knew that they are now husband and wife!
I sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at them with some ambiguous eyes, but instead, they stood in front of the sofa and looked at me, like children who had done something wrong, and they were a little embarrassed.
I laughed, told them to sit down, and said, "Okay, let's not mess with you, let's talk about it, what's the matter with you, it's actually two!" Don't tell me in advance, I didn't even drink the wine! This is your fault, and you have to compensate me for what you say today! ”
After Xiao De and Xiao Yu sat down, Xiao De said: "Hehe, Xiao Hyunzi, you can rest assured, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, you can try Xiao Yu's craftsmanship at noon today, and we will compensate you!" ”
I was a little smug and said, "That's pretty much it! Now tell us about your situation! ”
After Xiao De and Xiao Yu sat down, Xiao De said: "Our situation is a long story, let me tell you from the beginning." "The three of us sat on the couch, and I listened to what they had to say, and at last I understood what had happened to them.
It turned out that Xiao De was born in a small county near Yunmeng Mountain in Henan Province in this life, since he was a child, his family life was more difficult, his parents died early, only his grandfather and he depended on each other for his life, he suffered a lot of sins since he was a child, and suffered a lot, when he grew up to about five years old, he met his current master, the Taoist number is a little interesting, called "three itch real people", he is a Taoist master, so Xiao De worshiped under his door.
Xiao De's cultivation method is a Taoist method of both internal and external cultivation, that is, both martial arts and internal cultivation, every day Xiao De is similar to the situation when I first cultivated, it was his master who extracted his main consciousness out of his body, led him to a place where no one was, and taught him to practice martial arts.
In this way, Xiaode followed his master for nearly 20 years, and when Xiaode was in his twenties, he had basically mastered all kinds of fists and weapons, and the level of cultivation had also reached a fairly high level, for example, he would have a kind of kung fu called 100 steps through Yang, not what modern people think of as shooting with arrows called 100 steps through Yang, but a distance of 100 steps, a single palm, you can hit a hole in the poplar tree, in fact, this is a function.
Another example is that Xiao De said that he can also fly on land, that is, like some film and television dramas, people can fly on the ground, etc., many of these are incredible magic skills, and he basically has them all.
However, what I am most concerned about is the origin of his Zhanlu sword, because this sword has followed the Jingzhong Marshal Yue Fei, that is, my father in previous lives, so Xiao De told me in detail how he obtained this sword.
Xiaode said: "This Zhan Lu sword, according to legend, is the Spring and Autumn Period sword casting master Ou Yezi cast, it is the first of the five famous swords, Ou Yezi sword mountain, for the ancient place name mountain 'Zhan Lu Mountain', the name of the Zhan Lu sword is the Yue Wang Yun Chang named, the sword of the sword is divided into the sword of the people, the sword of the princes and the sword of the Son of Heaven. The Zhanlu Sword is a sword of princes. ”
I said: "The last time this Zhan Lu sword appeared, it was when Yue Fei, the commander of Jingzhong, resisted Jin, and after Yue Fei was killed, this sword disappeared. ”
Xiao De nodded and said: "Yes, although this Zhan Lu sword is a sword, but it is also an eye, it is all black, and the long sword without a trace makes people feel not its sharpness, but its generosity and kindness, it is like a deep-sighted black eye of the heavens, watching every move of the king, the princes and the people of the world." ”
When Xiao De said this, the Zhan Lu sword was taken out from where he didn't know where to go, and it was flat in his hand, Xiao De looked at the sword with a gentle eye, and said: "When I got this sword, my master once said, Jun has a way, the sword is on the side, the country is prosperous, Jun has no way, the sword is abandoned, the country is ruined, the hardware is the hero, the essence of the sun, out of the gods, the service is mighty, and the sword of the true benevolence is also." ”
I looked at the Zhan Lu sword in Xiao De's hand, and recalled the experience I had in a dream, when my father Yue Fei was wearing this sword, which can be said to be invincible and invincible.
My eyes were a little moist and I took this Zhan Lu sword from Xiao De's hand, and stroked this sword of benevolence and righteousness that was all black, and the ancient breath emanated from this sword, I said slowly: "Xiao De, Zhan Lu Sword has spirituality, can recognize loyal ministers and good generals, you can be recognized by Zhan Lu Sword, it can also be said that there is a great opportunity, you must cherish it and love it." ”
I handed the sword back to Xiao De, Xiao De took it, and said: "I will definitely do it, I want to be able to get its recognition back then, I am really a little lucky, it was ten years ago, I traveled with Master to Songxi County, Fujian Province, Zhan Lu Mountain is here, our master and apprentice on a whim this day, so we played in Zhan Lu Mountain, because the mountains there are high mountains, the four seasons are foggy, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, so we stayed in the mountain for a few more days, and it was these days of stay that allowed me and Master to have a huge discovery." ”
I listened carefully to Xiaode's narration, it turned out that the development of Zhanlu Mountain is not very good, there are many primeval forests in the mountain, inaccessible, Xiaode and his master in Zhanlu Mountain to play in the few days, there is a very hidden place that attracted the attention of their master and apprentice, that is, in the middle of Zhanlu Mountain, found a clear water cold pool, in the pool of water, exudes a cold air that penetrates into the bones, far away you can feel the cold meaning from the pool water, There are no plants growing within a radius of more than ten meters around, and many animals will automatically turn away when they walk here.
Their master and apprentice found that the diameter of this pool of water is not large, that is, more than one meter, they felt that there was something strange here, so they stepped forward, Xiaode's master "three itch real people" curiously put his hand into the pool water to test it, and immediately withdrew his hand in his mouth and said: "It's so cold!" It's cold! ”
Xiao De added at this time, and said with palpitations: "My master has practiced for so many years, he was shocked by the coldness of this pool, I didn't expect that there would be such a place here, in order to study, we stayed more than twenty meters away from the pool, my master also investigated with the eyes of the sky, but the chill of the pool itself actually blocked his gaze, which surprised him even more." ”
I was also surprised and said, "Is this pool of water so cold?" It must be odd that it seems! ”
Xiao De said: "Yes, it is true, in the evening, the master and I, the two of us, meditated and practiced not far from the pond, and gradually our master and apprentice have entered the concentration, I am in the concentration, that is, in a trance, my main consciousness has entered a cold space. ”
I said, "Cold space? Could it be that the other space where the waterhole is located? ”
Xiaode nodded and said: "Yes, this is what I only learned later, at first I didn't pay too much attention to it, Xiaoxun, you know, our main consciousness, sometimes in the case of complete relaxation, it is normal to enter another space, and almost all other spaces are dazzling and beautiful, but in this cold space, it is not like this, there is nothing, only a pool of water is bubbling there, but on the edge of the pool, there is a small child, he curls up, his whole body trembles, It looks like it's frozen. ”
I said, "Then there might be something wrong with this kid, otherwise he wouldn't be there." ”
Xiaode said: "Well, at first I was also a little confused, and I was afraid that something bad would be turned into, so I opened my heavenly eye and looked at the child thoroughly, and found that there was a positive energy flowing in his body, which could not be faked, so I stepped forward and helped the child up." ”
I didn't interrupt Xiao De's words, but continued to listen, it turned out that after Xiao De helped the child up, he heard the child's mouth keep saying "Help me, help me!" …”
Xiaode asked, "How can I save you?" ”
The child said weakly: "Let me drink your blood, you can save me, I have been in this pool of water for almost a thousand years!" ”
Xiao De was hesitant at first, because the blood of a cultivator can save people's lives, but it is also the most precious, but looking at this child's pitiful appearance, he immediately cut his hand and fed the blood to this child to drink.
However, what Xiaode didn't expect was that when the child's lips just touched his wound, Xiaode's blood seemed to be attracted by some suction, and it continued to flow out of the child's mouth.
Just when Xiaode was a little desperate, the little child suddenly let go, smiled at Xiaode and said: "Thank you, you are a good person, you have a benevolent heart, then I will repay you for your benevolence." With that, he disappeared in place.
Xiao De also woke up from the state of meditation, and the abnormal state on Xiao De's side also woke up his master, when their master and apprentice opened their eyes, they were shocked to find that on Xiao De's legs, there was a sword lying at some point, that is, this Zhan Lu sword.
I was amazed, "Could it be that that kid is the instrument spirit of the Zhan Lu Sword?" Is your blood confessing to the Lord when he lets him drink it? ”
Xiao De nodded and said: "Yes, I got this Zhanlu Sword dramatically in this way, but, the strange thing is that the pool water in front of us no longer has the slightest chill and chill, just like an ordinary pool of water, there is no difference." ”
After listening to Xiao De's wonderful statement, I focused my eyes on Xiao Yu, of course Xiao Yu understood what I meant, and she began to tell me about her experience.
It turned out that Xiao Yu was born in a county near Jiangyou City, Sichuan Province, very close to Qianyuan Mountain, from a good family background, parents in the local county is also a figure with a face, when she was a teenager, with a few good friends in the mountains and forests, accidentally fell off the cliff, fortunately was rescued by a passing Daogu, and then worshiped under the door of this Daogu began her cultivation.
Her master was born with red hair, so she was called "Red-haired Daogu", a Taoist hermit female master, both internal and external, and her master mainly taught her archery.
After more than ten years of hard work, now Xiao Yu's archery is full of shots, and the arrows are not missing, no matter where the person is hiding, the arrows she shoots are like having eyes, which can track others.
The bow and arrow on her body was given to her by her master back then, and told her that the bow and arrow she used was called the Houyi Bow, which was an ancient divine soldier, and when Xiao Yu asked why such a valuable item was given to her, Xiao Yu's master said that this was the meaning of the Kunlun Mountain Alliance Headquarters, and she was just executing.
Xiao Yu then knew that she was chosen by the master because there was an alliance behind her, and through so many years of practice, she also roughly knew some of her life experience and past.
After listening to Xiao Yu's statement, I looked at Xiao De and the two of them, and said, "It seems that the three of us met, it should also be the meaning of the Kunlun Mountain Alliance Headquarters?" ”
Xiao De and Xiao Yu nodded at the same time, "Yes." ”
I asked again, "As a small cultivator like me, I'm nothing, so why does the headquarters attach so much importance to me and send you here to protect me?" ”
At this time, Xiao Yu, who was sitting on the side, said: "When we received the task, I heard my master say that one is to let us protect your safety, and the other is that it seems that you have a great opportunity with that key, and we don't know the rest." ”
Xiao De interjected at this time: "Xiao Yu, you go to the kitchen to cook first, what time is it, I'll stay with Xiao Hyun for a while." So, Xiao Yu got up and went to the kitchen.
After Xiao Yu left, Xiao De approached me, put his arm around my shoulder, and whispered to me: "I heard Master say that in ancient times, there was a very ancient tribe in Kunlun Mountain, and the reason why our current Chinese civilization can continue is that it has a direct relationship with that tribe, and at the same time, our headquarters is also in Kunlun Mountain, and the news I heard is that you may have some relationship with that tribe, and even my master doesn't know what it is." ”
When I heard Xiao De say this, I couldn't help but fall into contemplation, which reminded me that the night before I met my master, it started with a dream, and the content of that dream also happened in Kunlun Mountain, and after that, a series of things happened, which also made me a cultivator, I know that what happened in that dream must be the truth of history, but my master, although he knows the content of my dream, but he doesn't know the true meaning of that dream, which is also the answer I am looking for.
The dream is real, the real is a dream, all this is a little painful in my head, Xiaode looked at me frowning in a daze, poked my waist and eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't bother with that brain, don't think about things you don't understand, look at the development of things, take a step by step and see a step, I believe that there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”
Xiaode is right, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so I just did what Xiaode said, don't cling to those things, I stood up, pulled up Xiaode, and said: "Let's go, let's go to the kitchen to help Xiaoyu, and see what delicious food she makes for us!" ”
Xiao De was somewhat reluctant, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and said: "I haven't been willing to go into the kitchen since I was a child, let her do it herself, we might as well watch TV and chat for a while." ”
I laughed and scolded: "You kid is too lazy, your daughter-in-law cooks, you don't help and talk cool things, I'll go to Xiao Yu to sue you in a while, wait!" ”
Xiaode begged for mercy: "Don't! Other! Can't I go! Really! ”
In this way, the three of us old friends who have been reunited for a long time have come together again, in the small space of the kitchen, but it has brought us a different warmth, we are more like a family, helping each other, trusting each other, and supporting each other, because we all have a future goal in our hearts, and we are all striving for that goal.
At noon, our lunch was very simple, three people fried six dishes, Xiao Yu's craftsmanship is still good, these six dishes are also colorful, flavorful, and during the banquet, we still tell the feelings of missing each other.
As lunch drew to a close, I suddenly remembered that there was something very important that I hadn't asked them, so I asked them, "Why haven't I been back there since we parted in the canyon space a thousand years ago, and why?" ”
Xiao De and Xiao Yu heard me ask about this matter, and their faces actually showed sad looks, I suddenly had a bad premonition, and immediately asked, "What's wrong with the senior in white?" Is something wrong? ”
Xiao De was already teary-eyed at this time, a little choked, and said: "We parted in the canyon space more than a thousand years ago, in fact, it was the master who did this to protect us!" ”
I became even more puzzled and anxiously asked, "Protect us?" What's going on? "I was already on my feet because of the excitement.
At this time, Xiao Yu continued, and said, "Xiao Hyunzi, don't get excited, sit down and listen to me slowly." I suppressed my panic and sat back in my seat again.
I heard Xiao Yu say: "The situation at that time was that some powerful people with ulterior motives didn't know how to probe the canyon space where we were, in fact, the real name of the canyon space is 'Sumeru space'. The significance of the existence of this 'Sumeru space' lies in the fact that Master uses this space to secretly help the 'Sage' accomplish important things, just like Master and He arrange for you to perform a different life every time, you have your mission, Master has his mission, and that's it. At the same time, his existence is hidden from being detected by some people with ulterior motives in the outside world. ”
I chimed in, "How do you know this?" I've asked you these questions before, why don't you answer me? ”
Xiao De said on the side: "Because we only learned about this matter a few years ago, after going up to Kunlun Mountain, I heard from the Great Elder of Yuanshan that it was our uncle who passed on the words. ”
I nodded and continued, "And after that? ”
Xiao Yu continued, "After that, I don't know what the reason is, the 'Sumeru space' was discovered and destroyed by a person called 'Blue Night Dao'. ”
When I heard the word damage, I stood up and asked loudly, "How is the senior?!" ”
Xiao Yu said: "Master, after he was seriously injured, he has been recuperating in a very secret place, we don't have to worry about this, but it is unknown when he will reappear when he will recuperate." ”
Xiao De sighed: "That's why we have been separated from each other for nearly a thousand years, without the existence of the 'Sumeru Space', we have nowhere to go, we can only keep reincarnating in this reincarnation, waiting for the opportunity to meet again." ”
Xiao Yu smiled at this time and said, "We can get together again, in fact, thanks to Uncle Shi's help in secret, otherwise, we would not have met in this life!" ”
I breathed a long sigh of relief, I didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns, and I secretly prayed in my heart, hoping that the senior in white would recover soon, and he would be able to meet again one day.
In the afternoon, when I left Xiaode's house, they wanted me to stay at their house for one night, but I refused, after all, they were husband and wife, and I lived here, which was a little out of place.
So, Xiaode drove me home, and when he was leaving, he told me, "The people of the Evil Heaven Alliance will not let you go easily, I have already arranged some formations near your building, school, and clinic, as long as there is a situation, I will know as soon as possible, and rush over, but you also have to be more careful, understand?" ”
I smiled and said, "Hearing you say this, I'm about to become a guinea pig, and I'm going to be kept in captivity by you, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
I watched Xiaode drive away from the community, and after seeing his car at all, I stood in place, thoughtful.
