Chapter 62: Flowing Water as a String
Ji Xiao thought about it, a sharp sword light fell outside, and the courtyard was immediately shrouded in cold, so frightened that the little white fox hurriedly hid in the corner. When the little white fox looked at it, it was relieved to find that it was the Suqiu girl.
It patted its chest, and felt that it was a little timid, so it turned its head, embarrassed to continue looking at Su Qiu, but when it looked sideways, a white bone skeleton came into view, and the white fox jumped up and hit the wall.
Ji Xiao saw this scene and couldn't help but wonder. But Su Qiu's next sentence made Ji Xiao smile.
"We're gone. ”
Ji Xiao was slightly startled and said, "What's the matter?"
Su Qiu said: "I was meditating and practicing qi, and suddenly I heard a strange sound in Wei Rui's room, so I went to investigate, and found that Wei Rui's room was empty, I thought she was probably in an accident, so I looked for her everywhere, but I didn't find any trace at all, so I came back." ”
Ji Xiao groaned: "I'll go to her room to have a look." ”
He shook his body, let out the breeze, and in an instant he arrived at the girl's room, and saw that the furnishings in it were not messy at all, and there were no traces of a fight.
Ji Xiao lifted the Void Sky Eye, a divine light appeared in his eyes, and he shot into the room, and saw a very shallow trace extending outside along the window lattice.
There was a little strange in his heart, this trace was a faint demonic aura, it was the girl's, but there was no other breath, it should have been her own departure, which was a little strange.
After this meeting, Su Qiu also came to the girl's room, and she said, "What did you find?"
Ji Yu said: "I'll look for it, you stay here first, and wait for me to come back." ”
After he finished speaking, he took a step, turned into a breeze and followed the faint demonic aura to trace the past, and in a short time he left the city, and finally arrived at a river.
Ji Xiao saw the girl's back, but did not show joy, because there was something wrong with the breath.
The girl turned around, her eyes were full of agility and liveliness, like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, she smiled at Ji Xiao and said, "Long time no see." ”
This look, this tone, this look.
Ji Xiao blurted out: "It's you, Zhao Xiyi." ”
"Girl" Ying Ying smiled and said, "I thought you didn't recognize me." ”
Ji Xiao said: "How can you not recognize it, but how did you appear in such a way?"
The "girl" seemed to understand his worries, and said leisurely: "I will leave soon, and I will not do anything to her." ”
Her eyes were immersed in the flowing river, and she continued: "At the beginning, because of your help, I broke the love barrier, and finally became the first monk in the history of Taiqing Dao to completely complete the immortal realm seven hundred years ago, but after practicing to that point, I realized that there is indeed no road ahead, to be precise, in the human world, my cultivation has reached the end, and there is no way to advance."
But I still held on to the hope of what happened, and I was determined to enter the world again, trying to find a way to break through, but decades passed, and I still found nothing, until later the sect master Ji Sheng of the Lingfei Sect wrote me a letter. ”
Ji Xiao's heart couldn't help but fluctuate.
He didn't interject and waited quietly for Zhao Xiyi to continue.
Zhao Xiyi paused for a moment, as if paying attention to his expression, and then she smiled and said, "It seems that in your heart, she is indeed more important than me." ”
Ji Xiao is not easy to pick up this topic, Zhao Xiyi does have some inexplicable feelings with him, but how can he be as good as Wei Rui, let alone his daughter.
Zhao Xiyi didn't seem to care, she continued: "It turns out that Sect Master Ji Sheng, like me, has come to that point, she is indeed an unborn genius, and she actually put forward two ideas to solve our problems. The first idea is that I will have a life-and-death duel with her, in the horror of life and death, stimulate my own potential, so as to break through the barrier and enter the Heavenly Dao, and at the same time, she gave the examples of Tianxuanzi and Bodhidora of Taixuanzong, indicating that this method is highly feasible. ”
After finishing speaking, she looked at Ji Xiao and said, "Do you think I did this with her?"
Ji Xiao said: "No matter what, I don't want you to do this. ”
Zhao Xiyi smiled and said, "Even if you answer this, you still have a little conscience." She teased Ji Yu for a while, and then continued: "Sect Master Ji Sheng also said that she can't be ruthless to me, so this idea can't be realized." She said the second plan, which was to enter the demon world.
It's as vast as the human world, but compared to the demon world, it's actually like a small pond. The pond water can't raise a dragon, and she decided that it was because we were in the human world that we couldn't go further, and if we reached the demon world, we might be able to achieve higher achievements. But the demon world is extremely dangerous, and she entered the demon world alone, and I was afraid that there would be more than one luck, so she invited me to explore the demon world together.
To be honest, I was touched by her vision, and the cultivation method in the human world originally came from the Demon Realm, and our exploration of the Demon Realm was really a measure to trace back to the roots. So I gladly agreed, and went to meet her at Four Seasons Villa. Why she's in Four Seasons Villa, I don't need to explain this to you. ”
Ji Xiao nodded and said, "You continue." ”
"After arriving at the Four Seasons Villa, I saw Sect Master Ji Sheng, to be honest, since the Demon Slayer War, I saw her for the first time, compared to the invincible and heroic appearance she showed in the Demon Slayer War, she looked gentle and virtuous in the Four Seasons Villa, and was taking care of this bauhinia.
Our Taiqing Dao exercises are the most in line with the Heavenly Dao, and the sense of the underworld is stronger than that of others, and when I see this Bauhinia, I have a strong premonition in my heart, and I foresee that it will intersect with you.
At that time, I was also surprised, because I was sure that you were dead, but the hunch in my heart forced me to take this matter seriously.
So I took this opportunity to preach to it for a few days to stimulate its spirituality, and by the way, I turned a wisp of my love for you into an obsession and left it on it, if my premonition came true, this obsession would naturally appear. In fact, when you first meet it, 'I' awakens. ”
Ji Xiao said: "Why didn't you show up at that time, and how did you recognize me?"
Zhao Xiyi smiled faintly and said: "'I' is a wisp of love for you, isn't it normal to recognize you, and when I broke through the love barrier, it was actually not completely broken, otherwise I wouldn't have to cultivate to the extreme of the world three hundred years after your death, but it was a hundred years behind Sect Master Ji Sheng." As for why I didn't show up, the reason is very simple, because I exist because of you, it doesn't matter if I see it or not, I can be with you with the redbuds. ”
She said plainly, but she revealed a touching temperament.
Ji Xiao sighed in his heart, he understood, this was not Zhao Xiyi, but the idea she left. In this red dust, this thought existed only for him.
It's just that he has this affection for Miss Zhao, but he has nothing to do.
Zhao Xiyi continued: "But I have to come out to see you now, because the real me is in some kind of danger, and at the same time, there is a force that is coming along the line of cause and effect, and I will be irresistible at that time." Therefore, I hope that at the moment of parting, I can play a song for you with flowing water as a string, which is what the real 'me' has always expected. ”
Her fingertips flicked and flicked into the water. The flowing water was agitated, and the sound of the palace merchant was issued.
