Chapter 430: Meeting
The further you go up the mountain, the stronger the mountain wind.
Lan Ting had too many cracks in the immortal Buddha seal in his body, which caused his body to be weak, and he was sweating slightly on his forehead against the mountain wind. However, he still gritted his teeth and followed behind Qi Chu, not letting everyone stop to rest.
The boy is so stubborn, he is unwilling to bow his head, even when his life is in danger.
The four of them finally reached the halfway point of the mountain, where caves were everywhere as far as the eye could see.
Tianyin Shenxuan turned around and said, "You wait here, I'll go over to see Master first." ”
Qi Chu said: "Senior, I'll go with you." ”
Tianyin God understood what he meant, but still said, "No, I'll just go alone." ”
After speaking, he walked towards the cave, the entrance to the cave was dark, and when the fire in the distance gradually became bigger and brighter, Tianyin Shenshu heard the voice of the Venerable Cunxin.
"Stinky boy, why is it here again?"
Although it is a questioning tone, it is full of care.
Standing outside the cave, Tianyin replied respectfully, "Master, I brought that child. ”
There was no sound in the cave for a while, and the Tianyin God waited patiently. He understood that the unmasked junior disciple fourteen years ago was going to be hunted down by the Divine Court because he used the Immortal Buddha Seal to seal the innate demon veins in Lan Ting's body, and the master took the initiative to confess his guilt and was sealed the meridians.
For fourteen years, Master was trapped alone in Longque Mountain, and he was afraid that he would spend his days in the cave all day long.
Now the baby who was rescued by the junior brother has grown up and is now not far away. Master's feelings must be complicated.
Tianyin God guessed well, and Venerable Cunxin's mood was indeed very complicated. But why it was complicated was not what he thought.
The crickets in the mountains never stop chirping at night, and the stronger the wind, the louder the call. It seems that the crickets have a good temper and have to compete with this strong wind.
After a long time, a figure moved in the light of the fire in the cave.
Tianyin God can see clearly, and the master is walking this way.
"Go and bring him here. Leaning against the stone wall of the cave, Venerable Cunxin gently brushed the ravine-filled rocks with his hand, and the convex rocks cut his palms like sharp blades.
Because of the perennial invasion of dampness and cold, the palm of the hand has become rough, and the palm has cracked a lot. His meridians were sealed fourteen years ago, otherwise with his cultivation, how could he be infected by the years?
The brothers who shouted that they would punish him severely, perhaps they just wanted the knife of the years to cut his body little by little, just like Ling Chi, until he was dying, and then died with hatred.
Fourteen years have passed, and Venerable Cunxin's body is about to run out of oil. However, half of those brothers had already passed away before him.
Sometimes Venerable Cunxin sat on the stone bed and thought, who will win between himself and those who are jealous of him?
Later, he slowly understood that they had all lost.
They themselves lost to God, and those people lost to narrow-mindedness.
A beam of moonlight falls at the mouth of the cave, and there are two crickets fighting on the ground. One of them was so big that he bit the other and didn't let go. In the end, the small cricket was bitten to death by the big one, and the big cricket who won was very angry.
But at that moment, a stone was swept off the rock wall by a strong wind, and happened to hit the large cricket.
Killed on the spot, the big cricket was smashed flat. Filled with the joy of victory, it didn't understand what was happening, and when it reacted, its head had been smashed, its tentacles were moving, and the thorns on its thighs stood up.
Venerable Cunxin saw all of this in his eyes, until the big cricket died and had one foot on it.
Now both crickets have been trampled into the soil, they are enemies when they are born, and they are in the same hole when they die, how ironic.
Lan Ting stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the old man in the cave, and felt inexplicably sad.
The old man's hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, and the clothes he wore were dirty and torn, but there was a blazing fire in his eyes.
"Hello, Master. ”
This title was just thought of by Lan Ting, and he thought it was quite appropriate.
When Venerable Cunxin heard this, the corners of his eyes jumped, and he smiled, "Child, why do you call me that?"
Lan Ting felt that the old man was very kind, so he replied: "Tianyin God is a senior, and your old man is his master, so I will call it so." ”
"Tianyin Divine Calculation?" Venerable Cunxin didn't know the name of his apprentice in the rivers and lakes, and this was the first time he had heard the four words Tianyin Divine Calculation. "God's count, what a big breath. ”
Venerable Cunxin was not at all unhappy, and beckoned to Lan Ting, "Child, come in and sit." ”
Maybe it's because Chen Ju saved Lan Ting fourteen years ago, and now the young man has a good impression of the master who saved his life.
Lan Ting walked into the cave, and the firelight stretched his shadow very long, and sat politely on the stone bench.
Venerable Cunxin sat on the stone bed and said, "Child, you must already know the cause and effect of this incident, right?"
Lan Ting nodded and said, "The god calculation senior has already told me, just now. But I really can't believe it, this is like a rumor in the mouth of the rivers and lakes. ”
Venerable Cunxin sat forward, and the two of them came closer. He looked at Lan Ting carefully, and after a while, he said, "Yes, I'm sorry for you." ”
"Don't be embarrassed, at least I'll live for fourteen more years. The young man didn't understand the deep meaning of Venerable Cunxin's words, and said, "It's almost the New Year, if only I can survive until the New Year." ”
At this time, Lan Ting thought in his heart that after the New Year, he would cook more food for his son, or if he died later, there would be no one to cook for his son.
Venerable Cunxin listened to his words, and his heart was quite sad, "Child, my disciple was able to save you back then, which means that you are destined. Now that you have met me again, this is also fate. ”
Lan Ting was very grateful to the benefactor who sealed his demon vein back then, otherwise he would have died in the hands of the Divine Court. How can I follow my father for 14 years, taste my father's craftsmanship, and learn a lot of delicious methods.
If you die at that time, you won't see your son.
"But I saw you as if I saw my disciples. Venerable Cunxin reached out and stroked Lan Ting's cheek.
The boy felt the warmth between the rough palms, and he could feel the hand trembling.
"Thank you, old man. Lan Ting stood up and bowed.
"Sit down, you don't have to thank me, it's all providential. ”
After Venerable Cunxin said the word Providence, his body was shocked, and his heart was shocked, didn't he want to fight with Heaven? Why did he start believing in Providence again?
But now, he doesn't want to care so much.
After living in the world for so many years, in retrospect, it seems that most of them were acting recklessly, and although they did a lot of good things, they did not have a good result.
"Son, how about a drink with me?"
