Chapter 13: In front of the stage
Life in the world, maybe only when Wow Wow falls to the ground is the purest, there are no worldly fetters, and I don't know greed, hatred, hatred, and hatred.
Cultivation and cultivation are originally pursued without restraint, but with the improvement of cultivation, the past has been washed away, but more distracting thoughts have also been ushered in.
The sage said, 'The avenue is merciless. "Taoism also has a saying: 'Too forgetful.' ’
Having said that, for countless years in the vast Shenzhou, how many people are there who are really 'too forgetful'? Even those who have escaped from the world will inevitably have one or two acquaintances, not to mention these immortal cultivation sects that have long been decayed by the years.
People, after all, are social things.
Zhou Bai was not surprised by Su Ru's arrival, whether it was the original work he knew or his personal experience in the past few years, he could feel the heavy shackles that Tian Buyi was carrying.
The strength of each vein determines its status in the entire sect, and this status is definitely not something that can be determined by the cultivation of the first seat. The Seven Veins Martial Arts is about to begin, and for this reason, Da Zhufeng urgently needs someone who can stand up and show his potential to other disciples, which is what Tian Buyi and Su Ru expect from Zhou Bai.
Zhou Bai sent Su Ru all the way away, and after seeing her back disappear, he smiled wryly and turned back to the room.
The familiar indifferent aroma swept through his nose, and Zhou Bai pushed open the door to see a woman in red standing in the flickering candle flame, with a face like a hibiscus and a peach and plum.
"I heard Daddy say that you had a tie with that Lin Jingyu during the day?" Tian Ling'er circled around Zhou Bai, looking up and down at this seemingly thin little junior brother. "He is a disciple of the fourth layer of Xuanqing Dao, and he has the Qingyun Divine Soldier Dragon Slaying Sword, how did you do it?" The crystal eyes seemed to be immersed in a clear spring, making Zhou Bai's heart can't help but ripple.
Zhang Xiaofan's heart moved, but Zhou Bai did not.
Zhou Bai smiled, "It's just a surprise to Yu Xiang, he heard that I have only entered the first layer of Xuanqing Dao in three years, so he just helped me build momentum." The indifferent gaze was an understatement, which made Tian Ling'er stunned when she heard it, she stared at Zhou Bai's face, and suddenly felt that the little junior brother in front of her was so strange, the two of them could be regarded as childhood sweethearts, but she had never understood the ordinary-looking little junior brother in front of her.
Not... Senior Brother Qi Hao is still more handsome, and his cultivation is also higher, and his speech is as soft and warm as reading poetry, Tian Ling'er murmured in his heart.
"It's raining. Zhou Bai suddenly said loudly, walked to the window, pushed open the window, and a cold mountain breeze suddenly blew in, carrying cold rain, brushing his face, refreshing people's hearts.
In the silence and darkness of the night, it was raining in the sky. The whole world was dark and dreary, and as far as the eye could see, there was only a vague shadow of easy bamboo cultivation in the small courtyard outside the house.
"It's raining. Tian Ling'er suddenly said faintly.
Tian Ling'er stared at the night for a while, slowly turned around, returned to the table, and said in a low voice: "Xiaofan, close the window, it's a little cold." ”
Zhou Bai smiled indifferently, closed the window, and when he turned around, he saw Tian Ling'er sitting at the table with some absent-mindedness, taking out a small box from his arms and opening it, and looking at it carefully.
The candle flame was reflected in her charming and bright eyes, like two gentle but fiery flames.
"You say, is this cool pearl beautiful?" Tian Ling'er's eyes stayed on the small bead with a soft luster, as if even her voice sounded fluctuating, she seemed to ask Zhou Bai, more like asking herself.
Zhou Bai suppressed Zhang Xiaofan's restless heart, and did not answer Tian Ling'er's question, but said flatly, "It's late at night, and before the rain rises, the little senior sister should go back." ”
Tian Ling'er was also full of thoughts in her heart, and stood up and said, "Yes, then I'll go first." ”
As soon as she took two steps, Tian Ling'er suddenly stopped, as if she had suddenly thought of something, turned around and smiled and took out a piece of tissue paper from her arms, with small characters densely written on it, and handed it to Zhou Bai.
"Look at my memory, I forgot what I wanted to do tonight. ”
Zhou Bai took the paper suspiciously, glanced at it a few times, and couldn't help frowning, "Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao Method? Little Senior Sister, this..."
Tian Ling'er said coquettishly: "Why are you so serious." Take this trick and practice it secretly, you can have a tie with that stinky Lin Jingyu today, and the next time you see him, you can teach him a hard lesson. But no matter how much you practice, you can't compare to Senior Brother Qi Hao, so don't think about it. ”
Speaking of this, she waved her hand and advised: "Keep it secret." With that, he walked out of the room and quickly disappeared into the darkness. She knew she shouldn't have said the last word, but she said it anyway, and the rain began to fall.
Tian Ling'er's heart has been drenched by the autumn rain and cold wind.
Zhou Bai couldn't help but shake his head, was he considered to have been issued a good person card? casually threw the paper full of Taoist scriptures into the fire and candle and lit it, Zhou Bai tidied up the room as always, closed the doors and windows, closed his eyes and practiced until the second half of the night, and slept in clothes.
Zhang Xiaofan is only fourteen now, and he is in his youth, and Zhou Bai has been established for several generations, and he deeply believes that the law of the highest death penalty starts in three years. Well... That's it.
At noon the next day, the people of Dazhufeng were sitting in the dining room, Tian Buyi walked in at the latest, sat in his position, raised his eyes to look at the disciples, when his eyes fell on Zhou Bai, he paused, Zhou Bai lowered his head, and Tian Buyi immediately looked away.
"You all know what happened yesterday?" Tian Buyi said lightly.
Everyone looked at each other. The little junior brother is so powerful, why is the master full of displeasure? Song Daren smiled and said, "Xiao Fan defeated Lin Jingyu on the fourth floor of Xuanqing Dao, it is really happy. ”
"Fart!" Tian Buyi suddenly shouted, the sound shook the audience, everyone was silent, only to hear Tian Buyi say angrily: "Yesterday's incident, you should see that it is the profound cultivation of the brothers of the other veins, not to mention that Qi Hao, even the little guy who has just started for three years actually surpassed most of you, and ran to Dazhu Peak to spread wild provocations." Did you know?"
Everyone was silent, and Tian Buyi said coldly: "The Seven Veins Martial Arts is coming in a blink of an eye, you guys who don't make it will all retreat from today onwards, and if you don't cultivate to the same appearance, see if I don't peel your skin!"
Everyone had a bitter look on their faces, but they didn't dare to say a word, Tian Ling'er asked cautiously, "Then I'll ....."
"You too!" Tian Buyi said flatly.
The corners of Tian Ling'er's mouth twitched, and she was about to speak, but she was secretly pulled by her mother. She turned her head to look at Su Ru's eyes, and the words that had come to her mouth shrank back.
"In the future, except for Lao Qi, who is responsible for eating, in the past year and a half, you are not allowed to go out and practice in retreat, do you know?" Tian Buyi glanced at Zhou Bai with a complicated expression, turned his head to Song Daren and said, "How many Taiji Xuanqing Dao Sect Elder Qi has?"
Tian Ling'er was stunned for a moment, bowed her head and didn't dare to say anything.
Song Daren smiled and said, "I was planning to pass on the second layer of the mental method to him today. ”
Tian Buyi's face was indifferent, and he interrupted Song Daren's words: "Just pass on the first four layers of mental methods to him." Tian Buyi looked around, and said with a stiff face, "From now on, you will take turns to practice martial arts with Lao Qi every day, and you must not cheat." ”
"Yes," everyone bowed.
Zhou Bai raised his head to meet Ueda's unscorching gaze and nodded yes.
