Volume 1 The Buddhas and Dragons Chapter 3 Reminiscences
After staying away from Chunli Garden, Gao Yao looked around and said cautiously: "Brother Jing, what happened just now is very strange, after Lin Miao'er appeared, my head was blank, as if I couldn't speak, I just stared at her. When Yu Jingzhi heard this, he secretly recalled: "I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now I hear you say this, it's really strange, with your temperament that you are not afraid of the earth and the earth, you shouldn't say nothing, don't you fall in love with that girl?"
"Brother Jing, don't laugh, look at her dress, she is definitely not a serious woman, besides, she looks older than me, I don't like young cows to eat old grass. Gao Yao said in disgust.
Yu Jingzhi was also amused by Gao Yao: "You are really a little ghost, what a tender cow, who taught you these nonsense words, it's just that, you go back quickly, so as not to cause another incident, I also have to go home immediately to ask Grandpa Tianxin for clarification." ”
Speaking of the name Tianxin, Gao Yao immediately thought of the white-haired and white-bearded old man who had been living in the depths of Yufu since he could remember, he liked to wear white clothes, his skin was like snow, because he did not have contact with the outside world all year round, he did not look like a living person, Gao Yao still remembers that he sneaked into Yufu at night when he was a child, and he was so scared that he peed his pants at a glance from a distance, and since then there has been a shadow in his heart, and he no longer dares to go to Yu Jingzhi in the dark, and when he thinks of this, he can't help but shudder. Yu Jingzhi didn't care about Gao Yao's careful thoughts, patted him on the shoulder, and rode back home.
As soon as he got home, Yu Jingzhi turned over and dismounted, didn't bother with the porter's invitation, rushed back to the backyard, pushed open the door of the old man's house in Tianxin, and shouted: "Grandpa Tianxin, Jingzhi has something to ask, where are you?" At this time, the old man Tianxin was standing behind the desk, leaning over to paint, seeing Yu Jingzhi so reckless, he frowned slightly, put the brush aside, and asked, "What is so flustered?" ”
Yu Jingzhi took a deep breath: "Grandpa, have you ever heard of the fairy fox cave, the sycamore falls?"
The old man of Tianxin stretched out two fingers and twisted his beard and asked, "Where did you hear that?"
Yu Jingzhi saw that the old man's expression changed, and he didn't say much, just stared at him in a daze.
The old man Tianxin couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, he knew Yu Jingzhi's temperament, if he didn't want to say it, he wouldn't say it, he beckoned, motioned for the latter to sit down, and poured a cup of tea: "In this way, since grandpa's interest in painting has been disturbed by you, then you might as well tell you a few stories." The old man closed his eyes and thought for a while, as if reminiscing about the past, and said slowly: "Do you know that in addition to ordinary ordinary people in the world, there are also people who cultivate the truth, these strange people and strange people, bent on seeking the Tao, some people are causing harm to the world, and there are also people who do the right way for the heavens, the former is called the Demon Sect, and the latter is called the right way. ”
Yu Jingzhi couldn't help but interrupt: "Then grandpa, do you have such skills?"
The old man Tianxin waved his hand: "The old man's slight ability is tantamount to a three-year-old child in their eyes, not enough to worry about, you don't have to interrupt, listen carefully, these stories of these people, if you have a chance in the future, you will see it." More than 100 years ago, the Demon Dao giant Blood Demon Ancestor reappeared in the world, making waves, and causing disaster to the world, at that time, everyone was in danger, the people were not living, and they were living a precarious life, headed by the Blood Demon Sect founded by the old monster, the four major factions of the Demon Sect were raised, and the Fairy Fox Cave you just mentioned was one of them, the Demon Sect was rampant, and the righteous people rose up to resist, and the four major sects that competed with it came into being, namely Jinguang Temple, Sword God Valley, Cuiyun Mountain and Wutong Luo. At that time, the Sword God Valley produced a once-in-a-century monk wizard Zuo Xianfan, swordsmanship, the Blood Demon Ancestor and he made an appointment to fight on the top of Mount Tai, that battle of the righteous demon finally killed the Blood Demon Ancestor at the cost of Zuo Xianfan's serious injury, after which the world returned to peace, and the Demon Sect disappeared for a hundred years, so you have never heard of it, I also learned from the ancestors that at this time, for Zuo Xianfan's predecessors, it is a pity that the talent is mediocre, and he can only be an ordinary person with a little ability, and he knows nothing about cultivation. By the way, where did you learn about these two sects?" he said and stood up and helped Yu Jingzhi prepare tea.
When Yu Jingzhi heard this, he was even more shocked, according to the old man Tianxin, the Demon Sect has been dormant for nearly a hundred years, I don't know why Lin Miao'er appeared here, if the merchant bottle is really a disciple of Wutongluo, then why did she appear? When he heard Lin Miao'er in the Fairy Fox Cave, he staggered and sat on a chair, his eyes were empty, and he muttered to himself: "It's all calamity, it's all calamity..." Yu Jingzhi was also taken aback, since he was a child, the old man Tianxin has always been wandering outside things, no matter what happens, he doesn't see any waves, let alone such a gaffe, and he has no idea for a while: "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" But the old man Tianxin didn't know at all, and just repeated the sentence to himself.
A moment later, just when Yu Jingzhi was at a loss, the old man Tianxin regained his calm, but his eyes were no longer as calm as usual, but as indifferent as seeing through life and death, Yu Jingzhi didn't know what he said to make the old man so desperate, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
The two of them were silent for a while, and the old man Tianxin slowly spoke: "Everything is a catastrophe, the old man thought that you could live a carefree life, even if you are idle all day long, and you don't want to bear some unacceptable facts, I never expected that your father and mother tried their best to do everything for you, even at the expense of sacrificing themselves to protect you, but it was still a hundred secrets." That Lin Miao'er is a disciple of Hu Baili, the master of the Fairy Fox Cave, and he appeared in Yangzhou, proving that the Demon Sect has begun to rise again, Hu Baili may have known about your existence, the ins and outs of the whole thing, you better go and ask your father to understand, he will tell you everything in person. The old man has lived long enough, and the peace of these decades has earned enough, but you are still young, and the old man really can't bear to see you suffer this catastrophe, but he can't do it to protect you. After saying that, he waved his hand, gave the order to evict the guest, turned around and entered the bedroom, and said no more.
Yu Jingzhi was like falling into an ice cellar at this time, feeling that everything around her was very unfamiliar, it seemed that she was in a great secret, the death of her mother had been very strange, it turned out that she was paying for her life to protect herself, the more she thought about it, the more chaotic she became, she had no clue, she gritted her teeth, tried her best to calm down, and ran towards her father's study in a hurry.
In the study, Yu Qingsong noticed that Aiko's panic was breath and footsteps, and knew that something was wrong, so he sat down and waited quietly for Aiko's arrival. Yu Jingzhi pushed open the door of his father's room and roared like crazy: "Dad, tell me, how did my mother die? What secrets have you kept hiding from me?"
The matter has come to this, Yu Qingsong knows that everything can't be hidden, all the things he did with his wife in the past have become in vain, he guessed that there would be such a day, but the quiet and peaceful days have passed for a long time, and he inevitably hopes that this day will not come, or that it will not come so early, he stood up and walked in front of Yu Jingzhi, reached out and touched his son's head, and said distressedly: "Jingzhi, you calm down first, Dad will tell you the ins and outs of the matter." After speaking, he snapped his fingers and said to the dark place: "Eleven, go and get two pots of spirits, and tell the housekeeper to close the door and thank you, when I talk with the young master, no one else will disturb me." ”
A heavy male voice came from the darkness, and replied, "Yes!" After a while, two pots of wine were placed on the table, Yu Jingzhi only felt a breeze on his face, and did not see a figure, he rubbed his eyes, only felt that his father in front of him had become very strange.
