Chapter 420: Past and Present Lives

It was like a figure.

And it was a very familiar but unfamiliar figure.

The figure stood there silently. The thin face is tough and green, the closed eyes hide calm and profundity, and the long-sleeved white clothes accompanied by three thousand green silk are automatically windless and fluttering behind them. He put one hand behind his waist and the other hand in front of his abdomen, standing quietly in the boundless darkness, like a bright moon in the silent night sky, his gentle and elegant breath revealing a trace of supreme majesty. His appearance was exactly the same as Xia Xun's, or more precisely the same as the blood shadow. It's just a change of white clothes, but it's just more calm than Xia Xun after the vicissitudes of time.

When he saw this figure, Xia Xun finally stopped running.

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

Xia Xun asked, the green silk fluttered, the white-clothed Xia Xun was motionless, and in the chaos, there was a voice exactly the same as Xia Xun, and the same three words echoed like a hollow valley, echoing in Xia Xun's ears over and over again. But he knew that this was not an echo, but a voice in white in front of him.

"I'm Xia Xun. Xia Xun said.

"Then I'm Xia Xun. Chaos resounded again.

"You're not. ”

"I am. ”

Xia Xun said yes, and the echo of chaos was also certain. Two identical voices were intertwined in the darkness, making it almost impossible to tell who was talking, or if it was Xia Xun talking to himself from beginning to end.

Hallucinations?

Really?

But Xia Xun knew for sure that this was the human soul in his body.

He searched for secrets for more than ten years...

"You're Li Changkang, the former crown prince, right?"

"Wrong. ”

“...”

Xia Xun didn't think much about it when he heard this, and then asked in a ruthless tone: "Then who are you!"

"Huh. ”

In the chaos, there was a faint laughter that did not eat the fireworks of the world, there was a hint of playfulness and helplessness, and more of it showed loneliness in the boundless darkness.

"What are you laughing at?"

The Voice of Chaos replied, "I laughed at you for not even knowing who you were, and asked me who I was." ”

"How could I not know who I am?"

"How do you know who you are?"

"I'm human, you're not. ”

"You are human, I am human. ”

Xia Xun paused, as if savoring the meaning of this sentence, and then resolutely retorted: "I definitely know who I am, so I am sure that you are not me." ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sha..."

Chaos echoed, and the body of the white-clothed Xia Xun suddenly fell into a trance. Like a drop of water on the surface of a lake, rippling in the dark chaos. Immediately afterwards, Erdao's figure that was exactly the same as the white-clothed Xia Xun came out of his body. The three white-clothed figures opened their lips slightly at the same time and said flatly: "Dao is born one, one life is two, two is three..."

"Sha..."

When the sound of the three characters fell, the whole space was like a downpour, and countless ripples rippled out of thin air one after another. The bodies of the three white-clothed figures were in a trance again, and then the six figures came out of it, and the six figures were in a trance again... In this way, in a few breaths, thousands of white-clothed figures identical to Xia Xun overlapped to form a snow-colored ocean, enveloping him in nothingness. Thousands of figures closed their eyes, and at the same time opened and closed their lips slightly, and then said flatly: "Two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things, all things are negative yin and hold yang, and they are impulsive and think they are harmonious." How can you be sure that I'm not you, you're not me?"

“......”

Seeing thousands of figures exactly like himself surrounding him, Xia Xun couldn't show a trace of panic for some reason, and some were just confused.

Maybe he really can't tell whether he is in a dream or in reality. Everything in front of me is so real, but it is so ethereal, imaginative, and incredible. Xia Xun didn't say anything more, his messy thoughts were entangled in endless broken memories, and he didn't know what to say next. And the thousands of figures didn't say anything more, they all closed their eyes slightly, like thousands of clay statues set out of the mold, standing there quietly.

Time flies like flowing water, and thoughts don't stop flying...

In the boundless darkness, Xia could not find the fulcrum to record time, and could only feel the long silence with the most primitive senses. There is no sound, no four seasons, no cycle of flowers blooming and sunset, only an extremely long wait. It feels like years have passed. Xia Xuncai opened his mouth slightly, and asked an extremely tongue-twisting question again: "Since you are me, why don't I know that you are me?"

"Sha..."

The long sleeves were gently caressed at the back waist, and thousands of figures opened their lips slightly at the same time, and said lightly: "I am your previous life, you are my present life, I am inside, you are outside, I am behind, you are in front." You certainly don't know who I am. ”

Chaos echoed, and the words were also tongue-twisting, but Xia Xun knew the meaning of these words very well. In the past and present lives, we are talking about people, inside and outside are talking about covering the sky, and before and after we are talking about behavior. In other words, he is in Xia Xun's body, of course, he can know Xia Xun but Xia Xun doesn't know him. Derived from this, Xia Xun can be sure that this is really not a dream...

Xia Xun said again in a deep voice: "In that case, why don't you come out and walk ahead? I think grandpa needs you more." ”

"Sha..."

The white clothes are sleeved, and the hands are on the back of the waist.

Thousands of figures opened their mouths slightly at the same time, and said in deep thought: "Don't use the hidden dragon, the gentleman is dry all day long, and the dragon has regrets." I am for the past life, you are for this life, the past life is gone, the road of this life should be taken by you, I cannot replace it. ”

"Don't use the hidden dragon, do you have regrets?"

Xia Xun was surprised when he heard this, and his thoughts were suddenly stunned, like an ethereal bell suddenly sounding in the ancient temple of Kongshan. He was not unfamiliar with this passage, and he was so familiar with it that he could even recite the full text as he could. Hidden dragon, don't use it, see the dragon in the field, see the adult, the gentleman is dry all day long, the evening is timid, strong, no blame, or jump into the abyss, no blame.

This is a hexagram that comes from the first chapter, verse 1 of the first volume of the Supreme Tao Sutra. And the self in front of him is also using this to warn Xia Xun that his road in this life is difficult, Tianxingjian, a gentleman with self-improvement, diligence and perseverance. At the same time, it is also invisibly passing on a big secret to Xia Xun.

At the moment when the bell rang in the Kongshan Ancient Temple, Xia Xun seemed to see a real light, and the source of that light was the truth that he had been searching for for many years but could not understand. Now he finally understood. He finally understood why he was hiding himself in his body. understands why his grandfather wants to seal the sky under his flesh and blood for more than ten years. Ask the old man in Tianshan why he told him the mystery of returning to Tibet. Why did Gu Fan say that he was not surnamed Xia. Why did Lu Suifeng always respect him...

He finally understood.

It's all because of the man in front of you!

Xia Xun understood very calmly, and there was not much joy or sorrow.

It's plain, it seems to understand and understand...

"Taixuan Daozang. ”

Shen Shen four words, as if he had a weight of 10,000 catties, spit out of Xia Xun's mouth word by word, and smashed into the void chaos.

The incarnated figure seemed to be able to see through Xia Xun's heart, and gently raised a faint smile and said, "You are very smart." ”

"But I'm always in your hands. ”

"It's us, not you. Thousands of people said.

"Nope. ”

"Nope. ”

"You are who you are. ”

"I am you. ”

"You're wrong. ”

In an instant, Xia Xun's heart seemed to be freed from a heavy shackle and became much more ethereal. He knows what the other person means, just as the other person knows what he means, not contradictory but also contradictory.

Xia Xun shook his head and said, "You are you, even if you say that you are my previous life, you are still you, and you have your own memories." And I am me, although I am your life, but the road under my feet is the mark of my step by step. So, you're not me. I am who I am. ”

"Is that so?"

"That's it. ”

“......”

Xia Xun answered in the affirmative this time, and the thousands of white-clothed figures smiled softly and didn't say any more.

Xia Xun then asked again: "Do you want to borrow a corpse to return the soul?"

Thousands of people pondered for a moment, and then replied lightly: "I don't need to borrow or repay, and I don't have what you think." When you get to that point, everything returns to the source, I am you, you are me. ”

"No, that's not me anymore. ”

"It's not you, who is that?"

"That's just you. ”

"That's you, too. ”

The conversation seems to have evolved into an extremely boring argument.

Xia Xun shook his head again, he knew which step the figure was talking about, but he didn't say anything about it. Because he knew that he was naked in front of these thousands of figures, and all his inner thoughts could be completely seen. So he has nothing to hide...

"If I'm not mistaken, Shoushan is the first time we've met, right?

"It should be. ”

"That's right. I wondered why I had so much mess in my head. When I first saw you, your memories had already begun to take root in my consciousness. If all things return to the source, I think I will only become your soil. Even if you are the soil and I am the stems and leaves, the flowers that bloom still have your veins, and I can't accept either of these results. ”

"You seem to be worried about that. ”

"It's not worry, it's fear. ”

"Are you afraid I'm with you?"

"Yes. ”

Xia Xun did not shy away from answering.

Thousands of white-clothed figures seemed puzzled: "Do you not understand clearly?" Fusion is a quantitative change, not a qualitative change. All things return to the source, you will still remember who you are, and your memories will not be annihilated by my existence, but you will get what you have always dreamed of because of me. ”

"Nope. ”

Xia Xun still spit out a word before he spoke.

Although he knew very well what he was thinking at the moment, he still cleared his thoughts a little before he said: "Quantitative change is qualitative change, although I will remember everything I have experienced, I will also feel your unforgettable, earth-shattering achievements." Add a glass of water to a jar of ink, ink is still ink, and water will become ink. Your years are longer and more wonderful than mine, and everything I have experienced is like dust and mustard in front of you, dry and monotonous. If I am with you, even if I am in this life, I will become insignificant and even ridiculous. While you can indeed give me what I have always dreamed of, what I have ever dreamed of will never be as good as what I am cherishing now. I'm a very scared person, and I don't know how long I stayed in this world of eternal light before you appeared. I was afraid that I would stay here forever, and I was terrified of the loneliness and nothingness here. So I don't want to be you. ”

At the end of the words, the voice became more and more passionate and sonorous.

As some people think, Xia Xun really doesn't look like a schemer.

He can see through the true meaning hidden in the fog at a glance with a delicate heart, and distinguish the importance of things, but he often gives people unexpected choices, and sticks to the so-called bottom line that he thinks is important. Now that is the case, he knows very well who this self is in front of him, and what an earth-shattering power he has. He also knew a lot of things that he didn't know before, such as the thing that his grandfather really wanted to do. It's like a road, when he follows the road to the step that his grandfather has paved for decades, the so-called return of all things to the source is the restart of the killing game, and he can get the power he dreamed of and enough to be proud of the world, but he resolutely chose to refuse. It's just that his memory can't be diluted, even if it is his own memory of his past life that is diluted, it won't work.

Xia Xun's resistance seemed to be beyond the expectations of the white-clothed Xia Xun, even though he could see through all the thoughts in Xia Xun's heart, he still couldn't understand the original intention and reason for Xia Xun's resistance. It's like a lonely beggar passing by a mountain full of treasures, gold and silver, but he snorts at it, bites on the cold, stinky steamed bun, and leaves without thinking about it. Incredible is the source of the extreme contradiction, and it is impossible for anyone to make a choice like Xia Xun, which is simply a joke.

Very funny joke...

Darkness is boundless, chaos is disorderly.

Time flows in silence.

Thousands of transfiguration figures and Xia Xun are like rocks sinking to the bottom of the river, letting the river wash over their bodies, sinking and speechless, and becoming stiff. Time cannot be quantified, it is a thousand years in the dark, and it is as if a thousand years have passed. For thousands of years, the two had no more words. Only chaotic time and space are eternally frozen in darkness.

Thousands of years have made Xia Xun silently think about many things, and weigh many things.

Although he always resisted the self in front of him, he had to accept a certain fact...

After a long time, Xia Xun slowly re-said, "I think I will go to the step you arranged. ”

"Why?"

Thousands of figures didn't speak again, and it was the most primitive white clothes who spoke: "Since you know that this is not your original intention, why do you want to go that far?"

Xia Xun said: "Because, this is the road you have not finished, and it is also the hard work of my grandfather for half his life." Filial piety and benevolence should not be wasted because of my own selfishness. That's what I should do for my children and grandchildren. ”

Bai Yi Xia thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, you can have everything I have." ”

"Nope. ”

Xia Xun didn't think about it, and decisively vetoed: "I don't need anything from you." The gentleman works all day long, and he is not to blame, and I will finish the road of your previous life for you in this life. But after walking, you are you and I am me, and we no longer owe each other. Even if Grandpa doesn't agree, I'll do everything I can to separate you from my body, even destroy you. ”

"Without me, you will be reduced to a mustard. ”

"Grass mustard can also overturn the wilderness. ”

"Is it worth it for you to do this?" asked the white-clothed Xia Xun.

"There is no such thing as a value that is not worth it, only whether it should or should not be. If you and I merge and return to our origins, I am not me, and you are no longer you. This is torture and blasphemy for me and for you. I can die another death, and I don't want my mind to fall in love with the one you love, and suffer from you. I don't want you to violate my feelings, to love my loved ones, and to hurt my loved ones. That's what I'm trying to do. ”

“......”

In this chaotic space, Xia Xun's thinking seemed to become extremely clear.

The words are always so sure and strong, and there is no pause.

The white-clothed Xia Xun was surprised when he heard this, although his eyes were closed, it was not difficult to feel the shock that Xia Xun's words brought him. Invisibly, Xia Xun could faintly feel that a wisp of shame and unbearable feelings slowly spread in the heart of the white-clothed Xia Xun, like a small grass that quickly took root and sprouted and then spread seeds, gradually growing into the darkness of nothingness. This is love, the true love of the world. This is the most real thing that Xia Xun let him see. He always thought that the past and present lives were just reincarnation, and that he was always himself, but this was not the case. In the past life, there were inseparable emotions in the previous life, and in this life, there is also the unyielding love for death in this life, although the two have the same root but are completely different. Xia Xun didn't allow him to be contaminated, how could he ever allow Xia Xun to be violated?

The love of a gentleman is more important than life and death.

This past and present life is the core of the contradiction.

It is also the point that Xia Xun refused without hesitation...

The white-clothed Xia Xun thought about it and came back to his senses, and suddenly said slowly and meaningfully: "The chastity of the horse, the gentleman has a future." Friends in the southwest, mourning friends in the northeast, An Zhenji. Frost, ice to. With the chapter can be chaste, or from the king's affairs, there is no end. Including the bag, no blame and no reputation, Huang Xiang Yuanji. The dragon fights in the wild, and its blood is yellow. Lee Yong-jeong. ”

It's hard to understand, this passage is also a hexagram from the supreme Taoist treasure, and the deep meaning is even more mysterious compared to this, he seems to be telling Xia Xun a way to solve the situation. Xia Xunzhi could vaguely understand the meaning when he heard it, and in the darkness and chaos, he couldn't see his limbs, but he also bowed with his hands and fists: "Thank you." ”

"No thanks, helping you is helping me. ”

"But thank you. ”

The white-clothed Xia Xun shook his head heavily: "Whatever you want, but remember, this is the only way you can stop me from returning." Your body is different and has something I can't explain. It is far beyond the means of the saints, even the immortals are difficult to do, and you must explore it with confidence. When you go to that point arranged by your grandfather, I will help you settle all the love debts you owe in your previous life, and whether you can continue to go down depends on your creation in this life. Now that my previous life has awakened, my evil thoughts are deep, and my good thoughts are slight, and I can't control them. What has taken possession of your body before is the evil of your past life. If the sky is damaged again, he will be able to devour good thoughts and complete himself. At that time, he will not show mercy to your subordinates, and you will have to merge if you don't merge..."

"Sha..."

After speaking, the end became quieter, and at the same time as the white-clothed Xia Xun spoke, the thousands of figures that had been transformed in the boundless darkness slowly disintegrated like dust and sand. When the words were finished, thousands of pure white rays of light suddenly bloomed, like thousands of suns illuminating the boundless darkness in an instant, and the vast expanse was snow-white.

Wink.

Xia Xun, who was sleeping on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

"He woke up. ”

“......”
