That night, Lin Yan was lying alone on the square where his master had taught his exercises, staring at the stars in a daze.

"People, you can't always guess what you will encounter. ”

With a sigh, Lin Yan sighed, took out a photo of his mother from his arms, and then in the moonlight, Lin Yan could vaguely see her face.

"Mom, my son is more productive than before, are you pleased?"

The corners of the mother's mouth in the photo were slightly raised, looking a little happy, because on the day of the photo, Lin Yan won the first place in the school, and she was proud of her son.

"I think you must be very concerned about your son's grades, and you will definitely tell me not to be proud, to be humble; although you are not by my side now, I remember everything you have said, Mom, don't worry, I will not embarrass our Lin family, nor will I embarrass you." ”

Lin Yan was lying down, the tears from the corners of his eyes slid down his face and into his ears, but he didn't even have the mood to wipe them, his eyes were locked on his mother's photo.

Danyun had been on the side for a long time, but he never came, quietly clubbing there, he could feel the sadness in Lin Yan's heart at this time, it was a kind of sadness that others could not understand and could not resolve, he didn't know what Lin Yan had experienced, but he knew that that kind of sadness could only be slowly resolved by Lin Yan himself.

"Master......" Lin Yan sat up and shouted softly, he also saw Danyun.

"Well, why are you homesick again?" Danyun stepped forward and asked.

Lin Yan smiled slightly and nodded.

"Well, I don't know what happened to you before, and I don't know why you left home, but now you have to know that you are the eldest disciple of Shangyun Sect, my disciple of Danyun, and naturally this Shangyun Sect is also your home. ”

Hearing the master's words, Lin Yan nodded to show that he understood, and he also knew that this was the master comforting himself in a different direction.

"Master, rest assured, I will never forget my identity as a disciple of the Cloud Sect, nor will I forget my identity as a master's apprentice. ”

"Yan'er, I can see that you are a very filial child, which is why I insisted on taking you as an apprentice in the first place. ”

"Thank you for your kindness. ”

Danyun also sat down on the ground and told him to sit down as well, and when he saw him sit down, he said:

"Yan'er, why are you lying in the main hall?"

"Lying?" Lin Yan looked at the master, and seeing his stern expression, Lin Yan knew that he couldn't hide it.

"Master, I don't have a deep grudge against Xuan Mo, I don't think it's necessary to let you know what he said in the Cloud Gathering Array, after all, he is not the only one who has that kind of thought. ”

Hearing Lin Yan's explanation, Dan Yun kept shaking his head and said:

"Yan'er, you said before that people can throw away a lot of things, even souls, for the sake of profit, why, do you think Xuanmo won't be like this?"

"Probably not, I don't know much about him, and besides, isn't there Elder Xuanyun teaching him!"

"People are unpredictable, who knows. ”

Seeing that his master's opinion of Xuanmo was very serious, Lin Yan was strange, and asked:

"Master, why do you seem to hate Xuanmo so much?"

Dan Yun glanced at him and asked, "Want to know the reason?"

"Yes. ”

"Because I suspect he's the one behind the killing. ”

"He?" Lin Yan couldn't sit still, cheered up, and asked, "Is this why you didn't let us investigate in the first place?"

"Well, I guessed it might be him at that time. ”

"What reason does the master have?"

"I have seen Zhao Yang's corpse, and I know the reason for his death. ”

"Oh, the master has seen Zhao Yang's corpse, what did he get?" Lin Yan asked, this matter has never disappeared in his heart, he must know who is thinking about him.

"Zhao Yang did not commit suicide, he died of poisoning, and I also found that there was still unconsumed Guji Dan Dan power in his body, although Guji Dan was not a precious pill in the Inner Sect, it was not what he should have as a person from the Outer Sect, the pills in the Outer Sect all had a specific time and a specific quantity, and when Zhao Yang died, it was not the time to send the pill. ”

"Is it possible that he was before?"

"It's even more impossible, in order to prevent the pill from leaking, the Shangyun Sect made people watch them take it, so it can't be the previous one; ”

"So master, you suspect it's Xuanmo!"

Dan Yun shook his head, he naturally wouldn't doubt him so easily, Dan Yun continued:

"If this is the case alone, then the disciples of the Inner Sect are all suspicious, but you have not been in the Shangyun Sect for a long time, and you don't know many people, let alone anyone who has an enmity with you; ”

"Are you saying that Xuanmo likes Xiaohan?" Lin Yan said with a smile.

Danyun nodded, indicating that it was right.

"So master, do you mean that Xuanmo saw me and Xiaohan getting closer, and he was jealous and wanted to get rid of me?"

"Yes. Danyun nodded again.

"No, is his qi so small?" Lin Yan didn't believe it.

"When you first entered the sect, you naturally don't know that Xuan Mo has always been arrogant and arrogant as a disciple of Elder Xuanyun, and he doesn't take any disciple in his eyes;

"If that's the case, I won't be afraid of anyone, and hopefully, it won't be what the master said. ”

Although Lin Yan's words were not loud, they were a little more resolute.

Danyun also smiled with relief: "It's very gratifying that you can think so much about being a teacher, although you and I both doubt that Xuan Mo can be a teacher, and I hope you don't question him." ”

"Don't worry, I won't, I can forget what happened before, I just hope that he can stop here, otherwise, I will let him know that I, Lin Yan, am not so easy to mess with. ”

The more Lin Yan's words came to the end, the clearer the words became, obviously, he was not just talking.

"I hope so, after all, cannibalism is not such a glorious thing, I just hope he can stop it. ”

Danyun and Lin Yan both decided to bury the previous incident, but would Xuanmo really stop there? No one could tell.

The stars were still there, neither the master nor the apprentice left, and Lin Yan lay on the ground, falling silent.

"Yan'er, what are your plans for the future?"

"Down the mountain!"

"En!" Dan Yun was puzzled, thinking that he had misheard, but Lin Yan's expression didn't seem to be.

"You want to go down?"

"Yes, down the mountain. ”

"Ridiculous!" Dan Yun was actually angry, which surprised Lin Yan.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"You said, you only went up the mountain for a few days and then thought about going down the mountain, if you have such an attitude, how can you talk about cultivating the truth and seeking the Tao. ”

Lin Yan knew that his master had misunderstood what he meant, and hurriedly explained:

"Master, I didn't say I wanted to give up, I just wanted to go down the mountain to practice. ”

Although Danyun's complexion was relieved a lot after hearing this, he still said resolutely:

"There are so many disturbances and temptations that if you go down the mountain, you may forget what to do. ”

"If you can't even refuse the temptation of Hongchen, is it useful to cultivate the truth and seek the Tao?"

Danyun didn't expect Lin Yan's rhetorical question to stop him, and after thinking for a while, he continued:

"Why don't you want to cultivate on the mountain, but go down the mountain to practice?"

"Qing Xiu?" Somehow, Lin Yan actually laughed, as if he sneered at the word Qing Xiu.

"Master, what do you say the purpose of cultivating the true enlightenment?"

"Attain the Great Path, fade away from the mortal body, in order to seek positive results. ”

"Is this the idea of our sect?" Lin Yan was curious.

"It's not just us, that's not what the person who cultivates the true enlightenment should be. ”

"Hahaha......" Lin Yan smiled again, but this smile felt heroic at all, but it was a little more lonely.

"Master, if that's the case, I don't need to repair it, and it's useless to ask for it. ”

"Well, what do you mean?" Dan Yun was angered by Lin Yan's words, but he felt that he should have something to say, so he didn't get angry.

"Seeking truth and enlightenment, just for yourself, what's the use?"

Lin Yan stood up, looked at the starry sky, and said in a low voice: "Master, do you know, I have had a dream since I was a child. ”

Danyun didn't ask, he waited for Lin Yan to continue.

"I dream that one day I can fight with a sword and Lingyun, with the sword in my hand, to keep a peaceful party, to slay demons and demons, and to eliminate the injustices in the world, so that I can live up to my own cultivation. ”

"If you meddle in the affairs of the mortal world, where will you put the cultivation path?"

"Master, the apprentice dares to ask you. ”

"What, you say. Danyun was patient, because he felt that his apprentice might not be able to surprise him.

"How many people do you know who have become immortals?"

"This ......" Danyun shook his head and said frustratedly: "Not one." ”

"There are legends about becoming immortals, but there are very few of them, and we are mostly obsessed with the nothingness, not reality!"

"Hahaha...... Hahaha......"

This time it was Danyun who laughed loudly and presumptuously.

"Master, you ......"

"Yan'er, that's right, it's right to be a teacher, it was really a very correct decision to take you as an apprentice in the first place. ”

"What?" Lin Yan was puzzled.

Danyun stood up, looked at Lin Yan and said, "You're right, Cheng Xian's question is indeed a near-nothingness thing, but you can't deny it;

"Xia!"

"Xia, that's it?"

"Well, one word is enough!"

"Xia!" Danyun lowered his head and pondered for a long time, before shaking his head and sighing: "Maybe this is your way, you want to go down the mountain, the master is ready." ”

"Really?" Lin Yan said excitedly.

"Of course, but only if you absorb all the remaining Dan power in your body. ”

"Okay, deal. Lin Yan thought for a moment and replied, he still didn't know how difficult it was to absorb the Dan Force.

Danyun turned to leave, but his gaze became confused.

Where is his word?
