Chapter 554: Life Is Unbearable......
"I will learn to get used to these stone beads as beautiful ornaments, not as heavenly monuments. ”
Xu Yourong looked at him and said calmly: "Then, I was a little hungry at this time. ”
Xunmei's thatched hut has been uninhabited for a long time, and there is a lot of dust, but all kinds of utensils are still complete.
Chen Changsheng went to the garden to pick two handfuls of green vegetables, pinched more than a dozen sharp peppers, cut half a square of bacon, sliced it, spread honey and steamed it, and served it with white rice.
Xu Yourong was very satisfied with the food, and was a little embarrassed.
Next, they discussed the Great Dynasty Examination and next year's Boiling Stone Conference, as well as how to leave the Tianshu Tomb.
In order to avoid being seen and guessing something, and then making the rumors in Kyoto even more boiling, the two discussed and left separately, Xu Yourong left first, and Chen Changsheng would stay in the Tianshu Mausoleum for one more day, but he didn't expect that this was completely trying to cover up, where could he hide it.
In other words, this is called covering your ears and stealing the bell.
However, before Xu Yourong could leave, the courtyard ushered in an uninvited guest.
The person who came was Ji Jin, the stele servant who was born in Huaiyuan, I don't know if he recognized Xu Yourong's identity, or guessed something, he stood on the other side of the fence, his expression was a little lonely, his face was a little pale, and the resentment in his eyes was gone, it was very complicated, but he couldn't explain it.
Chen Changsheng was about to say something, but Xu Yourong motioned for him to wait.
Her sleeves fluttered lightly, walked to the fence, looked at Ji Jin and said indifferently: "I will ask for the cancellation of your qualification as a stele attendant and expel you from the Heavenly Book Mausoleum." ”
The light of heaven leaked through the branches of the plum trees in the orange grove and fell on her face.
That extremely beautiful face suddenly added a sense of divine solemnity.
Because at the time of saying this, she was a high Southern saint.
It is an extremely difficult thing to become a Heavenly Book Mausoleum Attendant, and it is necessary to make a very extreme blood oath that there is really some kind of Heavenly Dao power in the dark.
Once you make a blood oath and become a stele attendant, you have the freedom that cultivators dream of getting along with the Tianshu Tomb, and at the same time, you also lose the freedom to leave the Tianshu Tomb, and you can only study the Tianshu Tablet in the tomb for the rest of your life, and you can not leave the Tianshu Tomb.
Countless years have passed since the state religion set this rule, and there is only one exception - that is, Su Li broke into the Tianshu Mausoleum, and scolded the two stele attendants from the Lishan Sword Sect with blood, and then forcibly brought them back to Lishan.
Those two stele attendants were the two elders of the Lishan Precept Hall later, and they were also one of the main causes of the civil strife in Lishan.
The temptation of the Heavenly Book Tomb for cultivators is too great, like a sweet dream that cannot be ended.
The more profound the Dao Fa, the longer the study of the Heavenly Book Tablet, the more reluctant to leave here.
Even a cultivator with extraordinary talent like Xun Mei took decades to wake up.
To cancel the blood oath of a stele and expel him from the Tianshu Mausoleum, only the Pope and the Holy Maiden are eligible to do so, and the stele squire will be subject to the blood oath, which is very painful.
Listening to Xu Yourong's words, looking at Ji Jin, whose face turned pale in an instant and his body trembled, Chen Changsheng was vigilant.
In his mind, Ji Jin would inevitably be extremely angry when he was humiliated like this and punished so much, and he might even go crazy and make a move on Xu Yourong.
However, Ji Jin did not make a move in anger, and after a while, he gradually calmed down and bowed to Xu Yourong across the fence.
He stretched out his head to the ground, looking extremely respectful.
His voice was a little trembling, very excited, and slightly confused.
"Thank you for the mercy of the saint, Ji Jin is grateful, and he will repay him with death. ”
Looking at Ji Jin's figure gradually disappearing into the woods, Chen Changsheng was a little puzzled.
"Why?"
"Because he wants to get out. ”
"I heard...... The backlash of the Blood Oath is terrifying. ”
"After all, it's worse than not being free. ”
"But didn't they become the stele attendants of their own free will?"
"People's minds, over time, tend to change things that they couldn't have imagined at the beginning. ”
Xu Yourong walked up to him and said, "For many cultivators, the Heavenly Book Tomb is the most beautiful dream and the longest seclusion. ”
Chen Changsheng vaguely remembered that he had heard a similar statement at the beginning.
She continued: "Actually, I had an idea early on, and I was ready to persuade the uncles in the Zhai to discuss with the palace to change this rule. ”
Chen Changsheng looked at her beautiful eyebrows and eyes, felt that she was looking more and more, and said from the bottom of his heart: "You are a good person. ”
Then he said: "If the palace does not agree to Nanxi Zhai's request, when I become the pope in the future, I will also strive to abolish this rule." ”
Xu Yourong said softly: "You are also a good person. ”
......
......
The next day, Chen Changsheng left the Tianshu Mausoleum and returned to the National Religious College under the escort of several cardinals.
At that time, the morning light was faint, the west sky was like night, and the time was still very early, he was about to go to the newly repaired stove room on the other side of the lake to find Xuanyuan Po to ask for some food, but suddenly saw a person on the big banyan tree who he didn't expect at all, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Except for a few special circumstances, Tang Thirty-six would never get up so early, but at this time, he stood on the arm of the big banyan tree and looked into the distance, and he didn't know if he hadn't slept all night, or what was going on, he didn't look at Chen Changsheng, he still looked into the distance, and asked indifferently: "Do you know what the most painful thing in the world is?"
Chen Changsheng shook his head.
Tang Thirty-six sneered and said: "The most painful thing in the world is that when we are tired like pigs and dogs, some people still have the leisure to go on a date, and you still have to keep a secret for someone, okay...... actually had a tryst in the Heavenly Book Mausoleum. ”
After the recruitment of new students to the National Education Academy, the first test faced by the freshmen was the Great Imperial Examination, for the upcoming Great Imperial Examination, both Tang Thirty-six and Su Moyu were extremely busy, and even folded their sleeves would occasionally give lessons to the students, telling them what was the real battle with pain and blood.
However, Chen Changsheng, as the dean of the National Education College, completely ignored the matter.
Tang Thirty-six's real pain still has to talk about the four words of keeping secrets.
Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong had known each other in Zhou Yuan, had affection for each other, and often met in private, this secret is now only known to him in Kyoto.
The so-called secret, once it is known, people with secrets tend to relax a lot, just like Chen Changsheng and Xu Yourong these days.
But the one who knew the secret, but couldn't tell it, inherited their pain and pressure, and it was even greater.
Rumors spread all over Kyoto, everyone was saying that Chen Changsheng was in love with Xu Yourong but couldn't help it, Tang Thirty-six couldn't wait to spray the spit stars on the faces of those people, and he couldn't wait to reopen Chenghu Tower, and then stand on the roof of the building to tell this story to thousands of people, and tell the secret of those two people to the world.
But he couldn't do that, so he was miserable and even a little angry.
Chen Changsheng looked at him and said with some incomprehension: "You said that I would endure it. ”
Tang Thirty-six looked at it and said, "But I'm about to lose it anymore." ”R1148
