Chapter 398: Where Master Came
Li Xiuping didn't expect Chu Yan to break through suddenly, but it was a good thing, after all, it was always deliberately suppressed, and it was not necessarily a good thing, since she could have such an opportunity, then let it go with the flow, that is, Yang Erni wanted to break through, I am afraid that it is a little difficult.
First, because of Yang Erni's own talent, she will definitely not be able to catch up with Chu Yan in terms of cultivation; The second is that because of her previous encounters, her heart has a problem, so that the demon heart is deeply planted and sealed by Li Xiuping with sword intent, so her future cultivation can only unlock Li Xiuping's seal little by little.
Although unlocking the seals set by Li Xiuping can give Yang Erni great benefits, she can also unlock those seals. And no one can help with this, she can only rely on herself.
As the sun rose, everyone left the post house and headed in the direction of Tianchan Temple, and those men naturally followed, after all, Li Xiuping said that he would help them save that companion, and in exchange, after their companion left Tianchan Temple safely, they needed to take Li Xiuping to the ruins they found.
Tianchan Temple has always been low-key, and the mountains of Tianchan Temple are also low-key, what towering into the clouds, straight into the blue sky, has nothing to do with Tianchan Temple, it is just an ordinary mountain, and then a temple was established on the mountain, which is neither a place where spiritual energy gathers, nor a blessed land, and its location is not even as good as many second-rate sects that Li Xiuping has seen.
However, according to the topography of Tianchan Mountain, the monks of Tianchan Temple have built a large array of amazing defenses, so that Li Xiuping has just come to the foot of the mountain, and he can feel the mystery of the big array.
Along the way, Chu Yan kept asking Li Xiuping about last night, as well as some information about the Qi Refining Period, and when she heard the bell at this moment, she stopped, so that Li Xiuping could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Li Xiuping was happy to explain to her when he arrived, even if he couldn't figure out many questions about cultivation himself, he was willing to use his brain to ponder at this time, as for Chu Yan's intention to hide from Yang Erni that she had broken through, she was taught a lesson by Li Xiuping, saying that it was a breakthrough, and it was not a bad thing, what could not be said. As for Yang Erni, if she feels guilty because of this, then her senior sister will be considered for nothing.
In fact, Li Xiuping also wants to use this matter to temper Yang Erni's character, as long as Yang Erni can pass this hurdle, many problems will naturally be solved in the future, but the effect is somewhat beyond Li Xiuping's expectations.
Regarding the fact that Chu Yan had entered the Qi refining period, Yang Erni didn't seem to care, she really didn't care, she didn't pretend, which made Li Xiuping a little curious about what she thought.
When the bell stopped, Li Xiuping said: "Let's go, hike the mountain first, and persist as much as possible, it will be good for your cultivation, if you really can't hold on, just tell me." ”
Chu Yan and Yang Erni nodded at the same time, and followed Li Xiuping to start climbing.
The mountain road is rugged, there will be steps and flat ground, at the beginning, the two little girls didn't feel anything, after all, they had been practicing with Li Xiuping for so long, and it was not for nothing, but as they continued to climb, Yang Erni obviously couldn't hold on.
In the past, in a similar situation, Chu Yan usually couldn't hold on first, but now that Chu Yan has entered the Qi refining period, and the whole has been greatly improved, even if he walks to the top of the mountain like this, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Although Yang Erni was already in great pain, so that her feet began to tremble a little, she gritted her teeth and insisted, just not saying it.
This little girl's tenacity has even been praised by the Qingming monks, so Li Xiuping didn't say anything, but just slowed down a little, so that Yang Erni could continue to hold on while not being so painful, so that her body could reach the limit and be able to bear it, and only in this way could she break through her own limit.
If you are not as talented as others, you will naturally have to endure more hardships, although it is very likely that you will not get much reward for enduring hardships in this way, but if you have no talent and cannot endure hardships, let alone practice this path, it is impossible to do anything.
As Li Xiuping slowed down, they who were the first to go up the mountain were gradually chased by those pilgrims, and the originally deserted mountain road suddenly became lively.
Li Xiuping raised his eyes and glanced at the mountain road in front of him, but he had only walked about halfway.
It's really in response to the sentence "look at the mountain and run a dead horse", this day Zen Mountain doesn't look high, but it is not easy to climb to the top, Li Xiuping has a feeling, this is probably related to the great array of protecting the sect of Tianchan Temple.
If it was in its heyday, it would be possible to see the clues, but unfortunately now it looks like this, and you can only feel some subtle subtleties, so Li Xiuping continued to climb the mountain and asked: "Seniors think this road is normal?" ”
The Qingming monk smiled slightly, naturally knowing what Li Xiuping meant, and said: "This is one of the effects of the Tianchan Temple Great Array, the purpose is to allow people who go up the mountain to grind away the impetuousness in their hearts through this way of climbing, and when they reach the mountain, they will naturally only have the heart of devout Buddha." ”
Li Xiuping was stunned.
Chu Yan said at this time: "No wonder those individuals want to build the sect on a very high mountain, it turns out that it is for this." ”
She pondered: "Yes, if there is any enemy who wants to seek revenge on them, when they climb to the top of the mountain, they are all tired and half dead, where is the strength to fight?" Then this revenge will naturally not be avenged. ”
Qingming Monk and Li Xiuping glanced at each other, both showing bitter smiles.
This kind of statement, some ordinary sects are possible, but a sect like Tianchan Temple naturally does not need it, because if Tianchan Temple really has an enemy, it is also a direct sword volley flying around, naturally I don't care about this small mountain road.
However, what Chu Yan said was not entirely unreasonable, at the beginning of the establishment of any sect, the reason why he chose a mountain, in addition to the so-called aura gathering, was actually to show his own deterrence, so that those ordinary people under the mountain would look at a certain mountain when they were one.
In addition to this, it shows that they have severed their relationship with the world, and from now on they live among the mountains, far from the world......
After walking like this for a while, Li Xiuping looked up at the sun and said, "Let's rest for a while, look at this situation, and when we walk to Tianchan Temple, I'm afraid it's noon, just in time for lunch." ”
As soon as she heard this, Chu Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, not that she couldn't hold on, but that she was worried that Yang Erni wouldn't be able to hold on.
For them, Chu Yan is really unpredictable, and she is very good at talking about everything, but in the matter of cultivation, she is even stricter than the old gentleman in the school, and she will not be soft-hearted at all.
Yang Erni sat down directly on the stairs, rubbing her knees with her hands, and was already sweating profusely at the moment, gasping for breath.
Li Xiuping sat down beside her and asked with a smile, "How do you feel?" ”
Yang Erni didn't find that Li Xiuping was already sitting beside her, and when she heard Li Xiuping speak at this moment, she was startled, and she was about to get up and salute, but Li Xiuping stretched out her hand and pressed it on her shoulder, so she couldn't get up.
Li Xiuping said: "Don't care about those red tapes. ”
Yang Erni nodded, glanced back at the remaining steps, and said: "I feel that the mountains here are more difficult to walk than other places, at first I thought it was nothing, but as I climbed higher, the more difficult it became, just like ......"
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "It's like a thousand catties of weight on your body? ”
Yang Erni nodded.
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "I have encountered this situation before, and it is much more serious than this, so I let you persevere, because it will be of great benefit to your cultivation." ”
Yang Erni nodded.
She hadn't always liked to talk, so she nodded and fell silent.
Li Xiuping continued: "Your junior sister has entered the Qi refining period, don't you envy it?" ”
Yang Erni was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Envy." ”
She then said, "But I know that envy is useless, in terms of cultivation, I am not as good as my junior sister, I know this very well. ”
She looked sideways at Li Xiuping, and continued: "Actually, although the two old-timers didn't say it, I know that they are not optimistic about me, and they think that if the master accepts me, it will dishonor the reputation of the master." ”
Li Xiuping asked, "What about you, what do you think?" ”
Yang Erni fell silent, and after a while, she raised her head again, her little face was full of confidence, and her eyes were full of strange light, and said: "I'm not as good as senior sister, this is innate, no one can change it, and the master naturally can't either." But since Master has accepted me as a disciple, then I will do my best to do what Master has given me, and as for how far I can go, I have done my best. ”
Li Xiuping was a little shocked, and then he was very pleased, and the hand on her shoulder gently patted her shoulder, and said: "You can think like this, it's enough, I said, I took you, I don't want you to achieve much, I just hope that you can live better than others in the future." In my absence, of course. ”
He looked at Chu Yan in the distance and said, "Your junior sister is the same, so no matter how far you can go in the future, I hope you can help each other and remember that you are the same disciple and my Li Xiuping's disciple." ”
Yang Erni nodded and said, "The disciple has written it down." ”
Li Xiuping continued: "I'm not worried about your junior sister, because she has a kind heart and can think about others everywhere in everything. Of course, I'm not saying that you are not kind, but no matter what you do in the future, even if you are going to be the enemy of the whole world, your junior sister will definitely stand by your side without hesitation, so I hope you can treat her the same way she treats you. ”
Yang Erni nodded again, this time without speaking.
After a while, she said, "Senior sister, she ...... Very good. ”
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "You are not bad, remember, talent is not the factor that determines everything, if you can think like before, it means that your situation has basically been solved, and then you just need to practice hard, just do it, don't care what kind of gain you will have." If you can do what I said, then your cultivation will not be too far behind your junior sister. ”
Yang Erni said in a low voice: "Actually, it's okay for my junior sister to walk in front of me, but if I surpass her, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing." ”
Li Xiuping naturally heard this, so his face was incredulous.
He had never thought about it.
It turned out that in his heart, he also felt that Yang Erni was inferior to Chu Yan, and now Chu Yan is in front because Chu Yan is talented, which is a matter of course.
In other words, between Chu Yan and Yang Erni, although Yang Erni is a senior sister, Chu Yan has always played the role of a strong person, so she can naturally maintain the kindness in her heart, and she can naturally think about Yang Erni everywhere.
And Yang Erni herself has no talent, and she herself knows it very well, so it is a matter of course that she is not as good as Chu Yan, so she will envy at most, and she will still regard Chu Yan as her junior sister. But if Yang Erni suddenly walked in front of Chu Yan, could all this still be like this?
If she is really surpassed by Yang Erni, can Chu Yan really maintain her current mentality?
Li Xiuping found that he had always been worried about Yang Erni's problems, but he never thought that Chu Yan would also have problems.
Now that Yang Erni said this, Li Xiuping felt that he might want to focus on Chu Yan.
Yang Erni's talent is indeed inferior to Chu Yan, but Yang Erni also has outstanding points, and in addition to looking at talent and blessings, there are many factors in cultivation, so it is not completely impossible for Yang Erni to surpass Chu Yan.
Not to mention anything else, he Li Xiuping is the one who has no talent, because he does not have the qualifications to practice at all, which was vividly demonstrated when he was in Qingyang County, when the major sects came to him.
At that time, who would have thought that he, Li Xiuping, would be able to reach today's height? I'm afraid that even now, those who went to him at the beginning found it unbelievable.
Although this is related to a lot of things that happened to him, since those things can happen to him, why can't they happen to Yang Erni?
Especially in Yang Erni's previous situation, she left a majestic sword intent in her body, as long as Yang Erni can solve her own problems, she can directly have those sword intents, which is of great help to her cultivation.
Li Xiuping exhaled softly, looked at Yang Erni with both eyes, and asked, "If one day you surpass her, what will you do?" ”
Yang Erni was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I won't hide it, I'll tell her directly." ”
Li Xiuping nodded, got up and said: "Let's go, if you can't hold on, remember to tell me, in fact, at your current age, it's already great to be able to insist on coming here, so don't feel bad to speak, sometimes, some things, you have to say it, others will know, if you don't say it, others can only guess, since it is a guess, it is inevitable that you will guess wrong, and misunderstandings will naturally occur." ”
Yang Erni nodded.
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "In the future, when you arrive at the academy, you will definitely go to the Guanchao Tower, and you will be grateful for coming to Tianchan Temple today." ”
Yang Erni had heard of Guanchao Academy and knew that it was the place where the master practiced, similar to these cultivation sects, and their master was the junior uncle of Guanchao Academy.
In fact, Yang Erni didn't care what kind of existence Guanchao Academy was, that is, every time Master talked about Guanchao Academy, it was not the same as usual, so she also wanted to go and see what kind of place it was......
