Chapter 365: Sending You Off
"Once this trip is gone, I don't know when I will return."
In the corner of the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm, Lin Chen stood out of thin air, looking at the endless snow-capped mountains in front of him, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.
After the snow-capped mountain, it is the place where he used to spread the Inner Dan Law - the Daqian Dynasty.
Although the war between the two sects in Lingnan has spread widely, the main scope of influence is the Lingnan land in the monk's mouth, that is, the Lingnan immortal cultivation world where there are spiritual veins.
Other than that, in the Spiritless Land, except for the area close to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, which was close to shattering due to the aftermath of the collapse, the rest was intact, and naturally included the Great Qian Dynasty.
And Lin Chen came here this time, in addition to staying here for more than 20 years, in addition to wanting to revisit the old place before leaving, he also had a vague plan for the future.
"The way of the qi, the method of illusion, the dream of the human brain, the spiritual seal, the sanctification of the body...... Although these can't embark on the path of cultivating immortals after all, it is a pity to abandon them based on the imagination and creativity born from the Inner Dan Method......" Lin Chen's eyes moved slightly.
Maybe when he has gained a firm foothold in Middle-earth and created a successful [Eating the Regency Feather Molt Sutra], he can return and guide him.
After thinking about this clearly, Lin Chen looked at this place again for a long time, and then came to the sky above the mountain range where the laboratory where he had been in the past for more than twenty years, and finally turned around and left.
Flying in the sky above Lingnan, the original barren dead land, in which the yin qi death qi evil qi and other filthy power have been completely wiped out by the earth-shattering sword light, and it has turned into pure aura, and under the spiritual snow floating out of the Guanghan Palace, it has initially recovered its vitality and seen a little green.
He came to the sky above the former Jiangcheng, the original city of Nuoda has disappeared, and only a wasteland where a little weeds are born remains, which looks desolate.
Lin Chen looked at this scene and was silent for a long time.
Before he awakened the memories of his past life, he also lived here for more than ten years, although he didn't have much deep feelings, but he also left some memories.
But the world is like this, vicissitudes.
When you want to recall the past, you will find that you are not even qualified to touch the scene, because the people or things in the past, as well as the places that have left countless traces of time, have passed away in the long river of time with that memory.
And when you have experienced endless years, all the past events, people or things, feelings or scenes, will be buried together in the distant past, at that time, what will become the driving force to support you and keep going?
"It's no wonder that the more high-level monks are, the heavier the obsession in their hearts, because when a person has experienced a long time, and countless people or things he cares about have left one after another, the only thing that can support him to go on is probably the Tao in his heart......"
I don't know how long it took, but his figure still disappeared in the sky above Jiang Cheng.
……
Qingyun Sect.
In the place where his laboratory used to be, the bright night pearl still exudes a soft light, and the concrete floor that can be fired by magic has been covered with cobwebs, and even overgrown with weeds in some places.
Once he summed up the three laws of Reiki here, and conducted countless experiments, which brought him to this day in one fell swoop.
Lin Chen rearranged the place, turning the desolate state into a new one, but he took away or dismantled various experimental devices, and used magic to remove the remaining resentment curse here.
Then, he hesitated, but he still artificially arranged a spiritual land, and through echoes and other methods, he left some secret methods, which were enough to make the cultivators proud of their peers, and they didn't know which latecomer would be cheaper in the future.
Eventually, he walked through the place, turned away, and never looked back.
……
From Daqian Snow Mountain, to the old site of Jiangcheng, then to the Qingyun Ruins, and finally, it is the cave mansion where he has lived for more than ten years.
The scenery of the courtyard is still the same, the willows in early spring give birth to tender buds, fluttering outside the wall with the wind, I don't know how many years of spring have been experienced.
Lin Chen casually closed the vermilion door and glanced at the courtyard where he had lived for more than ten years, with an inexplicable expression.
Then, as if sensing something, he walked along a path and kept moving forward.
At this time, it is early spring, the thick snow has melted, and there are countless grasses and flowers blooming on both sides, which looks very lively.
Soon, he followed the path to the top of a mountain.
At this moment, the sun is getting westward, the vast sunset is floating between the peaks, and the dusk sunset is sprinkled, sprinkling every step into a piece of gold, which seems to be vast.
And there is also a pavilion on the top of the mountain, there is a furnace in the pavilion, there is a pot on the stove, a person holds a cup, falls down lightly, faintly, there is a faint aroma of wine.
A beautiful figure, wearing a plain white robe, black hair like a waterfall flying in the wind, slender figure, in the spring breeze, there is an indescribable gentleness and moving.
At this moment, the figure on the pavilion seemed to be aware of it, turned around, looked at Lin Chen with a smile, raised his wine glass, raised his glass to him, and said loudly:
"And try the new tea with new fire, and take advantage of the new wine."
"Senior brother, this is the poem you told me in the past, and today is a good year, why don't you come and have a drink?"
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he smiled to himself, walked into the pavilion, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all.
"This farewell, I don't know if we can meet again in the future, I hope that my junior brother will not be restrained tonight, let us leave a good memory, if there is hope for immortality in the future, I don't want my senior sister!"
Xu Mengyun looked at Lin Chen's drinking, smiled inexplicably, smiled very happily, smiled very openly, at this moment, her smile was more bright and moving than the spring breeze.
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, as if questioning and affirming: "You know everything?" ”
"Naturally, Senior Sister, I'm not a fool, if there is no help from the people of Middle-earth, how can you win that final battle?" Xu Mengyun put away her smile, and her face showed a look of sway.
"And you know I'm leaving?" Lin Chen asked.
"I don't know about the others, but I know you, you will definitely leave, junior brother, you have never been a person who is willing to accept the status quo!" Xu Mengyun looked at the mountain peaks in the distance that were warmly colored by the setting sun, and seemed to sigh with emotion.
Lin Chen was silent for a moment, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I haven't told you, I just haven't thought about how to say it." Actually, you can come with me. ”
"Hahaha!" Hearing this, Xu Mengyun was stunned for a moment, and then a bright smile appeared on her face again, and the stars seemed to be reflected in her pupils, "Senior brother, a rational person like you would also ask this kind of question?" With my strength, isn't it a drag to go out on adventures with you? ”
"I think I'm sane." Lin Chen's tone seemed to be a little stubborn, and he retorted, "You can help me collect resources and manage forces, while I can protect you and provide spiritual objects for you to cultivate......"
"Flutter!" Xu Mengyun covered her mouth and smiled, with a look of banter on her face, and even reached out to pinch Lin Chen's face, and said with a smile, "Senior brother, you are really cute now." ”
Lin Chen rarely did not resist, let her pinch it, and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
"Forget it." Facing Lin Chen's sincere gaze, Xu Mengyun smiled, and finally shook her head, "I'm still staying in this place, I don't want to leave." ”
"Why?" Lin Chen couldn't help frowning deeply and asked.
"Because not everyone has the courage to go out on adventures like you, junior brother, I can't bear the hardships and loneliness." Speaking of this, the smile on her face was put away, and she looked into the distance, as if she was emotional, but also melancholy.
"Besides, my parents are here, my friends are here, and a lot of people I care about are here, so I can't abandon them and go to a completely strange place."
"After all, I'm not a seeker, I like the world, but I prefer those who care. Let me be as high as the way of heaven, watching all the people who care about me and me leave me, and in the end only I am left to drift alone in the years, I really, can't do it. ”
"I can accompany you." Lin Chen said.
"I don't need you with me." Xu Mengyun turned her head, her eyes seemed to reflect a pool of spring water, with infinite expectations for the future, "Senior brother, you should explore the boundless world and see the wonders of heaven and earth, instead of staying by my side and taking care of that little bit of children's affection." ”
"And, junior brother, it's really not everyone like you who can have an immortal heart."
"Then you stay here all the time, don't you feel tired?" Lin Chen's expression darkened slightly.
"I've been like this all my life, and I don't think there's anything wrong with living a plain life with people I like, people I care about, and friends and relatives." Between the words, Xu Mengyun looked around.
In the days when the war did not happen, she was in the small world of Qingyun Sect, competing with business opponents who seemed to be friends and enemies, gathering with her mortal parents who were slowly aging, and talking and laughing with her maid friends.
She has lived here for decades, and there are so many emotions and memories that she really doesn't want to go.
"Senior brother, I am different from you, I don't care about the excitement and prosperity of the world, I just want to be happy in time." Xu Mengyun smiled to herself, with a hint of apology in her expression, "I'm sorry, junior brother, I may not be able to accompany you and go down together." ”
"I know......" Lin Chen was silent for a while, and there was a rare trace of indescribable sadness in his tone, "The Tao is different, and it will not be a conspiracy in the end." ”
One wants to go outside to see a broader world, and the other just wants to grow old with the relatives and friends around him.
It's just that for some reason, Lin Chen's heart inexplicably swelled with sadness, decades of tacit understanding, and the old relationship, he couldn't tell whether it was friendship or love between them.
After all, the world has changed, the vicissitudes of life, hundreds of thousands of years later, I am afraid it is really a life and a death.
But in the face of Lin Chen's silence, Xu Mengyun laughed out loud, put one hand on Lin Chen's shoulder, and a smile appeared on her face:
"Why do you have to act like this, isn't it a kind of luck that we can meet at this time? Now even if fate is over, it is a time of enough memories in life! ”
"Besides, people like you should fit into the wider world, that's your real sky!"
Then, she looked at the mountains after sunset, the mountains were verdant like Dai Mei, and the spring level was like a bronze mirror, and she couldn't help but whisper:
"The floating world is a dream, and the world is humiliated and frightened. I only want to live my life, drink the clouds and dew, and the purple mansion is the heart of the Tao. Remember the windy and snowy night of this mountain, and be affectionate to the fire. Ask who is thousands of miles with you, the evening mountain eyebrows are auspicious, and the spring water is as bright as a mirror. ”
Between the words, Xu Mengyun raised the wine glass with a plain white and blue bottom in her hand, and her beautiful face was full of solemnity:
"Senior brother, hold this glass of wine and send you a thousand miles away! May all the good luck in the future be favored by you, and may no matter how long the years are, you can't wear away your original intention, and we will say goodbye. ”
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but smile, raised his wine glass, and showed a smile on his face: "Senior sister said too well, when you float a big white!" ”
Bang!
The two glasses clashed together, making a crisp sound, and suddenly chirping in the evening breeze.
In the mountain scenery under the pavilion, the lake is bright and the spring color is just right.
