The time and people are urging each other, and the winter solstice is coming again. (Note)

The winter solstice is approaching again, and this year's snow disaster is much less than in previous years.

Shen Cangqiong stood by the windowsill and looked at the moon wheel in the sky.

"Your Majesty, the eldest prince has returned to the palace. ”

Chief Qin had just received the summons from the secret guards and immediately came to report it.

Shen Cangqiong sighed.

"Qin Banban, how long have you been with Gu?"

Shen Cangqiong asked suddenly.

After hearing this, Manager Qin thought for a while and said, "It's been eighty years. ”

"Eighty years, so fast. ”

"yes. ”

Shen Cangqiong asked again: "Qin Banban, you said, if the world-destroying catastrophe really comes, this world..."

Manager Qin sighed with emotion: "I'm afraid that I will have to suffer and starve all over the world." ”

"After that incident, that seed has been quietly planted in everyone's hearts. ”

Shen Cangqiong couldn't help but be a little worried.

No one has thought about a question,

If one day, all the cultivators become ordinary people,

If the spiritual power is exhausted, what will become of this world?

No one dares to imagine it, and no one thinks about it.

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest. ”

Chief Manager Qin opened his mouth and interrupted Shen Cangqiong's train of thought.

Shen Cangqiong let out a long breath and walked out of the door.

"You've got such a big heart. ”

A man's voice came from the doorway.

After hearing this, Shen Cangqiong looked to the side and found that Sang Biluo was standing in the shadows.

"Xinghe almost lost his life this time, I really don't know what you're thinking. ”

Listening to Sang Biluo's accusation, Shen Cangqiong didn't speak, just listened quietly.

Sang Biluo said a lot, and Shen Cangqiong also listened a lot.

When he was tired, Sang Biluo suddenly said: "After the New Year, it will be the Demon Extermination Meeting." ”

Shen Cangqiong said: "Yes, it's time after the New Year." ”

Sang Biluo walked up to Shen Cangqiong and said, "It's all ordered?"

Shen Cangqiong sighed.

Sang Biluo didn't say anything else, and left alone.

。。。

The New Year is being welcomed everywhere in the world, and the sound of firecrackers and congratulations can be heard everywhere you go.

The world should be so beautiful.

Sang Huaqing came to the restaurant again, because it was the New Year, so Bei Zang did not sit there with a startling wood to deduce the plot of the novel, but sat by the window and watched the children frolicking around.

"Old Island Master, have you ever had such a day?"

Bei Zang asked suddenly.

Faced with Beizang's question, Sang Huaqing said: "Maybe there is, but I can't remember it clearly." ”

Bei Zang took a sip of the burning knife and said, "I remember that when I had not yet set foot on this path of cultivation, I would go crazy every time I said goodbye to the old and welcomed the new year, and I still remember that every evening, my mother would call my name in the village. ”

Bei Zang smiled and said: "Old island owner, you may not know, my name is not Bei Zang, my original name is actually very low, and it is easy to remember, called Goudaner." But I don't hate the name, after all, it's easy to feed yourself. ”

Sang Huaqing didn't answer, and looked at Bei Zang calmly.

"A lot of times I ask myself, if I could go back to that time, would I still think about practicing? Actually, I envy them, for us, their lives are very short, just over 60 years, they just need to think about whether they are well fed and clothed, whether they have a place to shelter from the wind and rain. ”

"You know what? When my mother died, I stood quietly and watched, and I didn't shed a single tear. Because before that, I was used to seeing joys and sorrows and separation, and I was also used to seeing life and death. ”

Bei Zang took another sip of burning knives, but this time he was choked and kept coughing.

Sang Huaqing said: "For cultivators, getting used to this thing is very common, and at the same time, it is the most terrifying. ”

Bei Zang slowly smacked his lips and said, "Yes, it's really scary to get used to this thing." ”

Today, the amount of wine in Beizang is surprisingly good, and one jar of burning knives drank half of the jar alone.

In this way, in the window of the restaurant, an old man cried and laughed for a while and told about his ordinary life, and an old man sat quietly opposite as a very qualified listener.

A jar of burning knives has been drunk, and Bei Zang has already snored on the table.

Sang Huaqing waved his hand towards Da Liu,

After Da Liu came over, Sang Huaqing said, "Please also take the trouble to send my old friend to the guest room." ”

Da Liu nodded and said, "You're welcome, old man." ”

Saying that, Da Liu carried Bei Zang behind him and went to the guest room.

When I returned to Penglai, it was already evening,

Sang Huaqing walked unhurriedly on the thousand-story ladder.

There are several reasons why he left the island today.

One is because his four apprentices have been here during the day, and the other is because if you want to experience that kind of New Year's flavor, you have to be in the world to experience it.

Penglai is quite harmonious compared to other sects, and all festivals in the world can be spent on Penglai.

It's just that everyone's festival is more Qingming, and as for the New Year or the moon worship festival, there are actually not many people who have it.

Because of the practice, people live a much longer life than ordinary people, so much so that when they come home, either their parents are not there, or their brothers and friends are not there.

No one wants to experience this kind of feeling, it will break their state of mind, and even more seriously, it will cause their own demons.

Most of the people who went home to save their relatives today were those new disciples, so Penglai was still quite lively.

Under the leadership of Wanyan Duoduo, the owner of the Daguan Building, red lanterns were hung in each house and couplets were pasted.

Compared with the world, for the disciples who have been here for many years, Penglai is more like a home.

On the way, there are constantly disciples who salute Sang Huaqing and congratulate the New Year.

Sang Huaqing also handed over red envelopes one by one.

Inside the red envelope is a voucher that says that you can go to the inner house to exchange for the elixir.

There are more and less, and each one is different.

。。。

In the Shaking Light Pavilion, Sang Wenjing lay on the side of the bed and looked at the snow outside.

I heard that this year's Exorcism will be held, and it seems that many people will participate in it.

I don't know if my cultivation is enough.

I heard my mother-in-law say that there are many cultivation geniuses outside,

Some people have just practiced for only half a year and have succeeded in summoning the Yuan, and some people even have waking up from a dream to know the realm.

I don't know how these people practice, and the realm has improved so quickly.

Immediately, the girl was looking forward to it.

I seem to be going on behalf of Penglai this time,

I don't know what ranking I'll get.

Although the landlords, mother-in-law and grandfather all said that the ranking is not important, just don't get hurt, but if you get a bad ranking, you will definitely be ridiculed by many people.

"The path of cultivation is so difficult. ”

The girl said with her hands on her pillow.

Granny Shi stood behind her and said, "Is it that difficult?"

Hearing the voice behind her, the girl happily turned around and pounced on Granny Shi.

"Ouch, little ancestor, your mother-in-law almost can't stand on her feet. ”

Granny Shi said with a smile.

The girl said, "What's the matter, my mother-in-law is obviously standing very steadily." ”

One old and one young frolicked for a long time.

"Wen Jing'er, every time a demon extraction meeting is held, each sect will choose a protector and a realm protector. Which brother or sister on the island would you like to go with you?"

Granny Shi asked as she sat on a chair.

The girl asked, "Is there a difference between a protector and a protector?"

The mother-in-law replied, "The protector is the one who goes in with you, and the protector is the one who comes out to save you when you are in trouble." ”

The girl sighed and nodded.

"But I didn't expect it. ”

The girl stuck out her tongue.

The mother-in-law said, "I was thinking that when the boy came back, he would let him be your protector, but he didn't seem to have the intention of coming back. ”

Hearing the name Sang Biluo, the girl asked, "Is it Grandpa's son?"

As she spoke, the girl was counting her generations.

The mother-in-law touched the girl's head and said, "It's your uncle." ”

"Ah, I thought I was going to call my father. ”

"It's okay, it depends on whether Biluo is willing or not. ”

"No, I don't. ”

After laughing, the mother-in-law said, "The candidate for the protector has been found, and this protector will have to be seen again." “

The girl said, "Okay, it's all up to my mother-in-law." ”

In the Lost Light Building, Zhao Ke sat cross-legged on the couch.

The scenery outside the small window is very beautiful.

Phantom Sibo really had a heart, and the best place in the entire Miguang Building was given to Zhao Keqingxiu.

Knock knock.

There was a knock at the door.

After opening the door, Phantom Sibo said to Zhao Ke, "Come have a drink?"

Zhao Ke stood up and walked out.

It's still the wine table, it's still the jug of wine.

A smoot outside the window went straight into the sky,

"Do you want to go out and see it?"

Phantom Sibo said.

Zhao Ke shook his head and took a sip of wine.

"Hehe, the first glass is still wine?"

Zhao Ke nodded and said, "Maybe the realm hasn't reached yet." ”

Phantom Sibo took the cup of snow in front of him and drank it all.

Looking at Phantom Sibo's movements, Zhao Ke said strangely, "Drink so fast again?"

After hearing this, Phantom Sibo paused and said with a smile: "Haha, that's right, drink slowly." ”

Looking at the fireworks outside the window, Zhao Ke said, "It's so beautiful." ”

"yes. ”

Zhao Ke thought about it, and then put down the wine glass and told Phantom Sibo a story of his own.

Twenty years ago, I still dreamed of becoming a chivalrous man every day. A chivalrous man who saves the lives of the world and saves the people from fire and water.

But before he walked out of Zhao's mansion, he woke up from his dream.

The world is one, and the life of the people of Dazheng is getting better and better.

Apart from the occasional drought or snowstorm, there are few grievances.

Even if there is a drought or snow disaster, the Eighth Prince's disaster relief speed is faster than his own family.

That winter, he had nothing else to do except dream of being a chivalrous man, and for this reason, his father often reprimanded him for eating and waiting for death.

In fact, I also thought about it, after making so much money at home, if I don't eat and wait for death, who will wait for me to eat and wait for death?

It was also on that snowy day that my father finally understood himself and invited the teachers of the Kokushoin Temple to teach him.

From that day on, the boy seemed to see the picture of him becoming a generation of heroes.

However, the flame of enthusiasm of young people is always extinguished quickly, and it doesn't take long for them to be lazy all day long.

Later, Jiao Xi was angry with himself, but his father could think about it, and he didn't force himself to practice.

Now that I think about it, maybe my father already knew that his enthusiasm for martial arts was only temporary, after all, that kind of life was too boring and boring.

But after the incident that night, although Zhao Ke survived, he was actually dead.

He died that night, in that snowy day, in that fire.

From that night on, the place that had been longing to escape but could not be separated was completely gone.

It was also from that night that I fell in love with boring exercises.

The motivation to live is to find out the truth of the matter,

Finally, I found my eyebrows in the Wind and Snow City, and then I took revenge very smoothly.

Although he met the old immortal master later, he was still very confused.

At the beginning, the motivation for his survival was to find out the real culprit, and now that his family revenge has been avenged, where should he go?

After saying this, Zhao Ke looked out the window;

At this time, the fireworks outside the window have already sunk into the dome,

Snowflakes slowly drifted in the sky.

Looking at the snowflakes outside the window, Zhao Ke suddenly had a feeling,

It seems like the snow has been falling for 20 years, and it has never stopped......

Listening to Zhao Ke's words, Phantom Sibo took a sip of the wine in his cup and said: "Sometimes, people live for themselves, and sometimes, people live for others. ”

Zhao Ke sighed: "Yes, I have been living for myself. ”

Phantom Sibo raised his glass and said to Zhao Ke, "Then why don't you live for others, for the people on this mountain, for the people of the world?"

After toasting with Phantom Sibo, Zhao Ke drank the thousand mountains and snow in the cup.

It's still so strong, it's still so hard to swallow.

After swallowing quickly, Zhao Ke said, "No, that's too tiring." ”

Phantom Sibo sighed.

Zhao Ke continued: "Actually, I am very selfish, and I have been very selfish since I was a child. It's really tiring to live for others. ”

Phantom Sibo smiled.

"After the early spring, it's time to pull out the demons, go and see?"

Hearing this, Zhao Ke looked at Phantom Sibo suspiciously.

Zhao Ke said: "Isn't the candidate the granddaughter of the old immortal master?"

After hearing this, Phantom Sibo took out a jade pendant and put it on the table,

"Each candidate can bring a Protector and a Protector, as you should know. ”

Zhao Ke picked up the jade pendant, looked at it and said, "Realm protector?"

Phantom Siber nodded.

"It's not that it can't. ”

After speaking, the jade pendant was carefully put into his arms.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and drank the wine in their glasses.

As soon as he finished drinking, Phantom Sibo pointed at Zhao Ke and said, "Good boy." ”

Suddenly, Phantom Sibo fell on the table.

Looking at Phantom Sibo who fell on the table, Zhao Ke smiled and said, "I finally counted it once." ”

After saying that, the two little boys walked in from the outside, and carried Phantom Sibo in one after the other.

Zhao Ke sat on the chair and looked at it and said, "It turns out that this is the feeling." ”

Then the whole person also lay on the table, only to see that his third cup of Qianshan Snow had also been drunk.

I've never been so happy, I've been so tired of living for so many years,

Living in nightmares every day, even after the revenge of the family, I will have nightmares from time to time,

will dream that the people in the house will say to him, why don't you come down to accompany them, why don't you come down, there is a big young master in the house.

This is also the reason why Zhao Ke has never slept a peaceful sleep over the years, except when he is drunk.
