Chapter 22: The Vicissitudes of the Floating World
Lin Luotian waved his hand, the sunset dissipated, the sky suddenly turned to day and night, the stars were bright, twinkling, and in the distance, meteors crossed the sky.
Duan Hongxue looked at the meteors streaked across the sky, and said silently: "Although the sunset is good, it is almost dusk; Heaven and earth are endless, and the starry sky is changing, after all, it is just a scene!"
Lin Luotian sighed silently, and with a wave of his hand, the sky suddenly brightened, and it was still the sky where the scorching sun was in full bloom.
"Come with me somewhere. ”
"Where are you going?"
"A place to go back to...... Lin Luotian stepped out and was already in the middle of a mountain. He looked strange, 100,000 mountains were all in one thought, but this place was completely different from what he remembered.
"How can this be ......" Lin Luotian muttered, although he had woken up from the mirror of seven emotions and six desires, but he hadn't walked out yet, this was still his illusion, it was his dream, but for the first time there was something he hadn't dreamed of.
He dreamed of the Sect Master of the White Cloud Sect that he had never seen before, he dreamed of Gongsun Yunhuo, he dreamed of turning into a god and an old monster, he dreamed of an unprecedented immortal realm tribulation, and he dreamed of heaven and earth enlightenment. But the mountains in his memory did not appear, the home in his memory did not appear, and the people in his memory did not appear.
"What's wrong?" Duan Hongxue held Lin Luotian's hand tightly.
"It's nothing, let's go back. Lin Luotian shook his head, maybe he was waking up, so there was a fault here. Perhaps he was cut off by the Heavenly Tribulation, and this is the place where he was born, so this place has dissipated.
At this time, at the foot of Mount Mochizuki, a woman in white, about twenty years old, was rushing to the mountain, and when she was in mid-air, the sky rippled and she saw a man and a woman hugging each other and walking out of nothingness.
Mu Xinhui immediately stopped, and Ying Ying bowed: "I've seen my predecessors...... Did the seniors pass by, or did they live here?" In Mu Xinhui's memory, this is a place for martial artists, and there are no cultivators.
Lin Luotian laughed: "I live here now?little girl, are you looking for someone?"
Mu Xinhui was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Lin Luotian's divine sense had already probed Mochizuki, he shook his head and said, "There is no one on Mochizuki Mountain, could it be that the person you are looking for is in the hidden Mochizuki Palace?"
As soon as Mu Xinhui heard this, she immediately showed a strange look, she grew up in Mochizuki Mountain since she was a child, and she had never heard that there was a Mochizuki Palace on Mochizuki Mountain, and how could this senior say that there was no one here......?
Lin Luotian looked at Mu Xinhui's strange expression, suddenly remembered the scene in the 100,000 mountains before, thoughtfully asked, "What's your name?"
Mu Xinhui was cautious and kind, and she didn't have any scheming, she immediately said: "Junior Mu Xinhui." ”
As soon as these words came out, Lin Luotian's body shook suddenly, and his memory was incompatible with his dream. At this moment, his body was more and more repelled by heaven and earth. He looked at Mu Xinhui again, and at this moment Mu Xinhui's body slowly blurred, and then completely dissipated into heaven and earth, dissipating in his dream.
Lin Luotian looked at Duan Hongxue, Duan Hongxue's body began to gradually dissipate, and everything around him began to blur. He suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction of the White Cloud Sect, and looked at the colorful mirror in front of the Phantom Star Cave.
"It's not time to wake up yet! You tried everything possible to make me sink, but now you can't wait to wake me up, is what you say? You are just a mirror, when you wake up, it's up to me to decide, now, it's not time to wake up!" Lin Luotian waved his hand, and the heavens, earth, mountains and rivers reappeared, Duan Hongxue was still leaning on his side, seeing that her face was dazed, obviously not knowing what had happened before.
"Now, no one bothers us anymore. ”
"So, what should we do first?" Duan Hongxue asked coquettishly.
"First of all, we need a home!"
Lin Luotian was about to use his supernatural powers to build a house, Duan Hongxue puffed out his cheeks and said angrily: "Don't use supernatural powers to transform again, let's build it ourselves." I'm going to set up this place the same as our cave, but you first have to go back to the sect and move everything in our cave, that's what I've worked so hard to arrange, and it would be best if I could move the whole cave here. ”
Lin Luotian blinked: "This, is it pulled back by a carriage?"
Duan Hongxue was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that this was what she said before, turned her head and hummed: "If you want, you can carry it back alone." ”
The early bird is eaten by the worm, and the early worm is naturally eaten by the bird. A small emerald bird jumped happily from branch to branch, as if it had spotted a delicious bug.
At this moment, a netnet fell from the sky, covering the emerald bird, and the bird fluttered and struggled in the net, and could not escape with all its strength, so it could only lie quietly in the net, waiting for the arrival of the hunter.
Lin Luotian came out of the grass humming a little song, holding a birdcage in his hand, looking at the little bird, revealing his recollection: "Don't worry, you are so small and don't have much meat, I won't eat you, just let you change to a new home." It's just that the little bird couldn't understand Lin Luotian's words, and kept chirping. "Okay, don't scream, I'll let you out right away. Lin Luotian put the bird in a cage and hung it on a tree with a crooked neck, then walked into the forest and climbed a tree.
There was a honeycomb on the tree, and a few bees were guarding outside the honeycomb, and at this moment, they sensed movement and flew around the forest. Lin Luotian hit a few times, and after a few breaths, a large group of bees poured out of the nest and flew along Lin Luotian's position. Lin Luotian did not panic, plucked the honeycomb, jumped off the tree, and then put the birdcage in front of him.
When the bees flew to Lin Luotian's side, they suddenly turned around and scurried up and down, as if this little bird was the source of fear for them. Lin Luotian laughed, patted the birdcage, and the bird flew out, regardless of whether Lin Luotian had caught it, flapped his wings twice, and flew towards the group of bees.
"Brother Bird, you eat slowly, I'll bring the honey back first. At this moment, several bees suddenly flew out of the honeycomb, and one of them stabbed Lin Luotian's hand.
Although this action can be regarded as revenge on Lin Luotian, his life is gradually disappearing.
Time is quiet, at this time, it is the Lantern Festival at the foot of Mochizuki Mountain, Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue will walk around a few laps on this night every year, and this year is already the tenth year.
Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue rented a small boat, the boat rippled on the lake, Duan Hongxue picked up a lantern, and then read: "The knife is downstream of the grass, and the people are next to the soil and stones." ”
Lin Luotian raised his eyebrows: "What's so difficult? Stone is also soil, soil and stone is double soil, people next to the soil and stone, it is a good word, the knife is in the downstream of the grass, naturally it is the word festival, and it is the word festival." ”
Lin Luotian looked at Duan Hongxue with a smile, and was about to wait for her praise, when suddenly, the wind and rain were blowing, and a huge whirlpool appeared on the surface of the lake, and a huge and hideous monster rushed out of the lake. The monster looked at the boats on the lake, almost all of them red, and suddenly lost his appetite, and suddenly his eyes glanced at a small boat, and the two people on board were looking at it with a light smile.
Nian was taken aback, and ran away, and at the same time shouted aggrievedly in his heart: "Why do you run into these two people when you come out every year, I only come out once a year, and I don't let me eat, and I came out so late for so many days this year, and I can still meet it, it's not unlucky!" It naturally didn't know that Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue were deliberately waiting for it.
Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue came to Nian's body in an instant, driving Nian to the bottom of the lake. When Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue first came here for Chinese New Year's Eve, they met the year that appeared every year and then broke it up. But in the second year, the year still appeared, Lin Luotian clearly understood the changes in heaven and earth, and naturally knew that the year was the condensation of countless mortal spirits, as long as mortals wanted to celebrate the New Year, the year would appear and never disappear.
However, this year is still a little smart, every time after being broken up by Lin Luotian, the next year, the days of the year are not fixed, but the result is still the same, or Lin Luotian is scattered.
Twenty years have passed, and at the foot of Mochizuki Mountain, a group of people carry a sedan chair up the mountain. In the past few decades, the mortals at the foot of Mochizuki Mountain have known that there is a pair of immortals living on the mountain, and they have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, save the dead and help the wounded, solve dangers, and solve problems, and they are all responsive.
Lin Luotian's heart moved, knowing the situation under the mountain, and instructed Duan Hongxue to boil a pot of tea, and waited for those people to come up the mountain in front of the door.
Thirty years have passed, Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue have lived here for sixty years, Lin Luotian looked at the group of people under the mountain, over the years, they have built a fairy shrine on the mountainside, and enshrined the statues of Lin Luotian and Duan Hongxue day and night.
"Birth, old age, sickness and death, birth, old age, sickness and death, how short the life of a mortal is. Lin Luotian turned his head and glanced at Duan Hongxue, sixty years have passed, her face is no longer beautiful, her hair is gray, and her face is wrinkled.
"Cultivating the truth, cultivating the truth, it is impossible to escape the reincarnation of the destiny of heaven. ”
"It was my choice and I never regretted it. Duan Hongxue came from behind, hugged Lin Luotian, and quietly leaned on his back. In the past sixty years, she has hardly used her cultivation, and she has never cultivated, her realm has long since dropped to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, and sixty years have passed, and she has not long left in her lifespan.
When the hundredth year came, Duan Hongxue sat on the bed as old, leaning on Lin Luotian's arms as before, and quietly listening to Lin Luotian tell interesting things up and down the mountain.
"Today, I saw a fox, it was in the grass, and when I looked, there was a little white rabbit eating grass leisurely not far away, and it turned out that the fox wanted to catch the rabbit. The fox is cunning and deceitful by nature, even in the face of a rabbit, it has been lurking for a long time, perhaps impatient, the fox pounced, but guess what? The fox was still in mid-air, it was burned by a small cluster of sparks, and the hair of both paws was scorched, and then the little white rabbit did not look at the fox, and continued to eat grass leisurely. It turned out that it was not an ordinary rabbit, but a demon beast with a spiritual mind. ”
Another ten years have passed, when the sun sets in the west mountains and the moon rises in the cold sky, Duan Hongxue's eyes are hazy, and tears are crisscrossing in the wrinkles. She used all her strength before she stretched out a hand and rubbed Lin Luotian's face tremblingly, and her legs had begun to turn into crystal light and slowly dissipate.
"Actually...... I've always had a question...... Want to ask you, if in reality...... There's really an e-me and we're ...... Will they still fall in love?" Duan Hongxue said very weakly, and her outstretched hand began to dissipate into crystal light.
Probably there is no answer to this question. When Lin Luotian came back to his senses, Duan Hongxue had already dissipated in his dream.
A cultivation of truth, a reincarnation, this dream, it's time to wake up......
Lin Luotian waved his hand, the thatched house had disappeared, he sat on the edge of the cliff, looking at the bright round and big moon in the sky, it seemed to be in front of him, but Lin Luotian stretched out his hand and grabbed it, but he didn't catch anything.
"Looking at the moon, looking at the moon, it's just looking at the moon, just like the flower in the mirror, the moon in the water, everything is just an illusionary thing......" Lin Luotian got up, stepped out of the cliff, and when he fell, he had come to the outside of the Phantom Star Cave. Lin Luotian looked at it, the Phantom Star Cave was the same as it had been for a hundred years, but it didn't have the colorful mirror of seven emotions and six desires.
"Transfiguration is an external thing, only the true is in the heart. Lin Luotian said calmly and walked forward, there was still no mirror of seven emotions and six desires here, but in Lin Luotian's eyes, the mirror had already appeared.
At the moment of entering the mirror of seven emotions and six desires, Lin Luotian looked back at the world in his dreams, this fantasy world. Suddenly, his eyes froze, and at the end of his gaze, he vaguely saw that he was holding a woman dressed in red, with white hair and a twilight face, looking up to the sky and roaring bitterly, and behind him was a group of monks who did not dare to move forward.
The red dress burned his eyes, and the sorrow in his eyes could not be exhausted even if he complained to heaven......
The inside of the mirror has come to an end for the time being, and most of the next content will revolve around the outside of the mirror, which is not to be missed. Newcomers and new books, seeking clicks, recommends, collections, to be continued
