Chapter 13: A Little Regret
The stars hang down the sky and the river, as far as the eye can see.
Momozhi silently followed behind Si Ming Xingjun.
It's not that she's suddenly well-behaved, but she thinks everything is too new, and her mind is full of:
"Wow, the water is flowing in the sky!"
"Will there be fish in the heavenly river, will the fish have wings?"
"The stars are like the sea! I don't know where the end is?"
"Hey, since when has there been only stars and water here?"
Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask, Si Ming Xingjun's voice as light as water resounded under the empty starry curtain: "This is the stargazing platform. β
It is said to be a stargazing platform, but in fact it is just a pen, ink, paper, inkstone and a stone tableβit looks like a desk.
"Mortals always look at the stars at night to get a glimpse of the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao, and for the immortals, what they see is nothing more than fate and variables. β
Si Ming Xingjun thought for a while, and added: "Especially as the position of Si Ming, you often have to watch here for a long time, here is eternal night, the stars will never disappear, and if you stay here for a long time, you can even forget time." β
The meaning of Si Ming Xingjun is that the premise of being Si Ming is to endure the boundless loneliness of this vast starry sky.
However, Tao Zhizhi didn't understand, as if she had seen the stars in her eyes, her eyes rolled, and she asked with a smile: "Why are some stars brighter?"
"Each star here corresponds to the life of each mortal, and the more light there is, the more powerful it is. Si Ming Xingjun took the topic back and continued: "If you see a change in the number of mortal lives here, you must record it and immediately go back to revise the Book of Heaven. β
Tao Zhizhi didn't digress this time, and asked, "Since it is written in the Book of Heaven, why is there still a change in the number of mortal lives?"
Si Ming Xingjun was stunned when he heard this, a trace of emotion appeared on his face that was like frost for ten thousand years, looking at the same childish eyes, he seemed to see the still young Luohe.
That's what he asked himself.
Seeing that Si Ming didn't answer himself, Tao Zhizhi called softly: "Master......"
It was this "Master" that brought him back to his senses, he turned his face away, and no longer looked at Tao Zhizhi: "Didn't I tell you? Let you come to Tianfu Palace to relieve you for the time being, don't call me Master again, I didn't promise to accept you as an apprentice." β
"Yes, Master. β
β......β
"When it comes to the Book of Heaven, come with me. β
Si Ming left the stargazing platform with peach branches, surrounded by stars, as if he had walked for 10,000 years, but in fact it was only a moment.
Returning to Tianfu Palace, walking through the many pavilions and pavilions and the main hall and small hall, Tao Zhizhi finally stopped looking forward to Si Ming.
Tao Zhizhi sat down, curiosity was more tired and tenacious, she walked all the way, she didn't see the plaques hanging on the doors of each hall, and these palaces looked similar, wouldn't the people who lived in them get lost?!
Si Ming said: "Hang a plaque to tell people with bad intentions, which hall can you enter to succeed in one blow?"
Tao Zhizhi was shocked: "There are also bad people in the Nine Heavens?!"
β...... It's not just bad people who do bad things. β
At this time, Momozhizhi didn't understand this truth, but she understood it soon after, and she not only let herself understand, but also let others understand.
At this time, she followed Si Ming into the hall, only to see books with golden light floating all over the room, they were windless and automatic, as if they were being flipped.
And in the middle of the room is a rotating stone!
"What stone? This is the natal chart!"
Seeing that the peach branches were to be touched, the priest ordered him to strictly order: "Don't touch it! The life chart is precious and cannot be lost." β
Tao Zhizhi was confused, his left hand pinched his right hand, Si Ming ignored her, stretched out his right hand, and a pen gradually grew in his palm, he said: "This is the Mandate of Heaven pen, write down the mortal life on the paper, put it in the life chart, the book of heaven will give birth to a page of this person's life, if there is a change, the book of heaven will also appear, the difference is that the stars look at the trend of the whole world, but the book of heaven looks at the changes of individuals." β
"The reincarnation of the natal chart, the reincarnation of mortals in previous lives, the two complement each other, and once something goes wrong, it is not only the human world that is endangered. β
Hearing this, Momozhizhi hurriedly moved away from the large rotating plate.
"And what if it doesn't move on its own?"
When Si Ming heard this question, he actually smiled at Tao Zhizhi: "If there was a time, you and I would have already perished, so what do you care about after death." β
In fact, the "you and me" in Si Ming's mouth did not refer to anyone alone, he was talking about the whole world, but Tao Zhizhi didn't understand, but only understood that if this thing didn't turn, whether it was broken by herself or not, she would die!
So what can she do, she just made an appointment with Tao Su to go to the world to have a good time!
It was Taozhizhi who opened his mouth in surprise, and stammered for a long time: "Then, then you have to take care of it!"
Si Ming looked at her timid appearance, shook his head, but did not continue to say the fortune chart, and saw that Tao Zhizhi put his eyes on the Heavenly Destiny Pen, and the gilded pen was half floating in the sky above Si Ming's palm, reflecting that Tao Zhizhi's face was also glowing with golden light.
"You are too weak to hold a pen. β
Momozhizhi showed deep regret in his eyes, and pouted, but it was a pity, it looked very funny.
In silence, Tao Zhizhi looked at the Book of Heaven for a while, looked at the Mandate of Heaven pen for a while, and finally re-looked at the destiny chart, and suddenly had a sense of crisis: "Master, I think the things here are very dangerous, why don't you see anyone protecting them?"
"Who said no?" Si Ming was not Gu Yuan, he didn't bother to correct the other party's inappropriate words, he took back the Mandate of Heaven pen in his hand, and casually said something that Tao Zhizhi couldn't understand: "If you don't see it, it doesn't necessarily don't exist." β
In this regard, Momozhizhi had no desire to learn, just looked at the natal chart, and there was some pity in her eyes that she didn't understand.
Si Ming saw the trace of mercy and thought to herself, if she could understand compassion after knowing the suffering, she could also cultivate it.
So he couldn't help but say a few more words: "The one who guards this place, not to mention the twelve ancient magic weapons, the twenty-four war generals, the thirty-six illusions, etc., is the drop of divine blood left by the creation god, once it is threatened and summoned, it is not the god of war but also the emperor, you don't have to worry about it." Speaking of this, he paused again, and then said: "If you don't become the successor, it is inconvenient for me to talk to you about all the organs of Tianfu Palace, besides," Speaking of this, he looked at Tao Zhizhi, who immediately put down his heart and looked around: "Even if I say it, you may not be able to understand." β
"Look at what you said," Tao Zhizhi crossed his hands on his hips and replied confidently, "I don't understand it, and it doesn't prevent me from thinking it's very powerful!"
β...... You better follow me, if you accidentally step on the wrong step, with your cultivation, you will be injured if you don't die. β
Hearing this, Tao Zhizhi hurriedly followed Si Ming's back: "Master, where are we going?"
"Listening to the Prayer Gallery. β
I don't know how long I walked, Si Ming stopped, Tao Zhizhi didn't stop his foot, and hit his head on his back, Si Ming sighed: "Don't follow so closely, there is no magic circle here." β
"Then I can do whatever I want?!"
Si Ming looked at Tao Zhizhi's elated face, and took the initiative to mention Gu Yuan for the first time: "I heard that you are the head of the Hundred Immortals Academy who personally assessed the teacher?"
"Yes!" Speaking of the assessment, there was a serious expression on her little face: "That time, Xinyue and I didn't speak for a long time!"
β...... That's all?"
"It's not easy to say but not easy to do! Our assessment was completed in the small illusion in the big illusion, if we don't pass this test about silence is golden, we won't be able to get out of the illusion!"
Si Ming Xingjun naturally knew that Taozhizhi's so-called Great Illusion Realm was specially made by the teachers of the Hundred Immortal Academy, and as for the Little Illusion, it was probably just bad luck to encounter it, but he couldn't believe that such an old-fashioned and stern person as the God of the Old Yuan would have a trace of accommodation, so he asked: "There shouldn't be nothing else in the illusion, right?"
"It's really not, it's empty inside," Taozhizhi's eyes widened, and she tried to explain to Si Ming that she really didn't lie: "It's not just me, Xinyue also said that I didn't see anything, it's just that the god of the ancient yuan doesn't know why, he has been practicing martial arts, we both woke up from sleep, and he was still fighting, and he looked a little tired when he came out of the illusion." β
β...... I kind of regret it. β
Si Ming finally understood why the god of the old yuan begged people to place her everywhere, but he didn't even let go of the toilet god!
He decided not to continue the topic, and quickly walked through the corridor with the peach branches, and entered a pavilion, the right side of the pavilion was still a corridor, and there were some wind chimes hanging on the left, but the wind blew but did not move, and as soon as people approached, they happily "jingle bells" sounded.
Si ordered the seal to cast a spell, and a swirling purple mist immediately gushed out in front of the empty object, slowly opening up, as if it was going to suck people in.
Tao Zhizhi followed Si Ming and stepped in without saying a word, only to see a long corridor appear in front of him, what stunned Tao Zhizhi was not this endless corridor, but this corridor was empty, only countless light spots like fireflies floating in it!
Walking in this bright green point of light makes people feel like falling into a fantasy like a dream.
It was a woman's voice that brought Tao Zhizhi back to his senses: "I wish to win the heart of one person, and the white head will not be separated." β
She looked back, but saw that Si Ming crushed one of the green points of light again, the light points dissipated, and a voice flowed out: "May my husband return safely." β
Before she could ask, Si Ming said: "These are the 'wishes' of the world." β
Tao Zhizhi followed Si Ming to walk in these "wishes", and heard him continue: "The green vision can be ignored, because most of these can be achieved by their own efforts; the yellow vision shows that it can only be achieved through external forces, and it can be reasonable when you see it, as long as it does not violate the laws of heaven and earth; the red vision is the obsession of mortals, and when you see it, you must find a way to resolve it as soon as you see it, otherwise this person will inevitably fall into the devil's path." β
Speaking of this, Si Ming was silent for a long time before continuing: "I have taken you to these three places, now you should understand that Si Ming's position is only three points and one line, and ten thousand years will only be this monotonous and repetitive life, how do you feel?"
Tao Zhizhi looked at Si Ming's face in the green light, and suddenly felt that the usually ice-carved face, the frost-painted eyebrows, including the indifference and meaninglessness in the eyes were like the snow water that bloomed in spring after winter, it was a wet, indescribable appearance.
But at that moment, she suddenly felt that he was good-looking.
In fact, the current vision is far less than the fluorescent magic made by the flower demon on the day of the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother of the West, and the listening gallery is not empty, unable to shine into the fun, giving people the beauty of the quiet years and the good days of the beloved, but the peach branch has never seen such a grand scene, and naturally has not seen the softened Buxiao, compared to the distant boy on the boulder, the face that is naturally close at hand is more moving.
Peach Branch, who has always only thought trees are good-looking, has to admit that this is the second human she thinks can be called good-looking.
"I felt a little depressed, a little scared, and a little lonely. β
Momozhizhi heard that his voice was a little thin, so he tried to show a warm smile and said loudly, "But if you have someone with you, you can bear it." β
Si Ming was stunned, and looked at the smiling face of Tao Zhizhi fixedly, as if he saw another person from this pretty face.
Luo He was like this at that time, he thought about it with a little face, and then burst out with a little innocent and a little sly smile: "Master, you deliberately said that these things make me afraid, right?"
"Alas, the position of Si Ming is indeed too lonely, fortunately, Master has me now, we are together, whether it is Tianhe Xingtu or the Wishing Corridor, the two of them will not feel too far together, just stay like this for thousands of years, and they don't seem to feel afraid!"
