Chapter Thirty-six Those who should be lonely are lonely everywhere(1/2)
Why do people feel sad?
Sadness is sadness.
The spring breeze is sad in the white city, and the hero is sad in the beauty.
The love barrier is sad, and the life and death barrier is even more sad.
Jing Jiu was sad not because of cowardice, nor because he saw that person and thought of many past events, at least not completely.
That person is indeed special to him, but after all, it is that person himself. If he can kill with one sword, he will naturally kill him.
"We will eventually lose all our connection with the world, leaving only loneliness itself."
Jing Jiu touched the cat in his arms, looked at the stars in the night sky, felt the coldness of the universe, and said to Zhao Layue.
Zhao Layue didn't say anything because she was very sad at this time. Just like when she was at Meihui, she always felt that he was slowly leaving the world.
When you live in the world, you will always encounter various changes, change your mind, and finally you will be unable to escape death.
Even practitioners can live forever, or even eternal life, they will not be able to change it. This will only allow them to see all separation more clearly.
The Great Way must be ruthless, otherwise anyone will eventually go crazy.
Even if Jing Jiu had already crossed this pass, loneliness would still emerge from time to time in the process of pursuing the avenue.
All sadness, sadness, weakness and anger come from this.
This is not a bad thing.
Just as the wax overflowing from cut bark will become the most precious gem, loneliness can help the monks find peace again and the Taoist heart will be calm again.
Many practitioners will deliberately seek such experiences to seek insights. This is what the descendants of Guocheng Temple say.
Of course, this requires you to have the ability to overcome it and absorb it, which often takes a lot of pain at the cost and takes a long time.
"That's all."
Jing Jiu said.
The sky is full of stars.
The world remains.
He is still.
After decades of returning, he showed some ordinary emotions tonight for the first time, and then it ended here.
Zhao Layue looked at him with an admiration in her eyes.
Ada looked at him with a look of awe in his eyes.
He was able to let go in such a short time because he had higher goals.
He knew very well that loneliness was the price he had to bear.
...
...
Regardless of whether you have the heart or luggage, whether you have weight or not, Jing Jiu said that putting it down is really put down.
He no longer thought about the word loneliness, no longer felt sad, no longer angry, and began to deduce and calculate calmly.
——Just as Ada said, he was not such a person before, so why did he be so persistent over the years? He went to so many places and thought of so many ways to find peace? This may be influenced by the spiritual consciousness left by the closest people of heaven and earth, but in fact, there is a simpler reason, that is, he needs an answer.
I read so many books in Shiyuefeng and Jingzong last year, and concluded that there were problems at the beginning, which meant that the man didn't want him to ascend from the beginning.
So he needed that answer even more.
More than 300 years ago, the previous God Emperor was seriously injured by Taiping Zhenren and died after only a few years. The old monk with the highest seniority and highest realm in the temple died on the spot and was forced to be reincarnated as the son of the mountain demon.
Then he brought Liu Ci and Yuan Qijing to launch the rebellion.
If that's the case, the man had a good reason to harm him, but why did he do this before?
And if that person wants to re-rule Chaotian Continent and practice that crazy and evil idea, wouldn’t it be the best thing for him to ascend and leave by himself?
Yes, the question that Jing Jiu wanted to ask was that simple.
Why do you do this?
This question sounds like a common question in third-rate, just like another classic question, why don’t you love it?
Of course, it’s not because you have become ugly, but just because you are tired of you, so you are getting uglier and uglier in your eyes.
But the rules of everything have its own operation are not as unreasonable as men and women love each other. If there is a result, there must be a cause. Everything must have a reason.
This question is also suitable for the ancestors of the Zhongzhou School of Shibian. No matter what ambitions the Zhongzhou School has, Jing Yang's ascension and departure should be what they most want to see. Why did Shibian attack him, which brought so many variables?
This question has always troubled Jing Jiu. It was not until he heard the three last words of Huiyuan Monk in Pinggu Temple that he vaguely understood something.
Now that man has begun to evolve, die, or become another existence. It is difficult for him to ask the answer again, so he can only search for it by himself.
How can I find the answer? He needs a stone from another mountain or a mirror that can reflect himself.
Successfully ascended but being knocked out of dust, such an experience is extremely rare in the history of the world of practice.
There are indeed many exiled immortals in the legends of Chaotian Continent, but most of them are just spreading rumors, and only one person may be true.
After Nanji was expelled from Qingshan, it is said that he encountered the former Sword Immortal Cave on an island on the sea, obtained the inheritance and achieved the reputation of the Kirishima Ancestor.
That sea is the West Sea. What’s very interesting is that the island is called the Flying Fairy Island.
...
...
Five years ago, Liu Ci seriously injured the West Sea Sword God with one sword and killed Nan Qi.
Wherever the sword light reached, disciples of the Xihai Sword Sect were killed and injured, and the divine beast Flying Whale in the sect also turned into countless huge balls of flesh and settled to the deep seabed.
The flying whales are too large. Even after so long, they are still not gnawed by the small fish at the bottom of the sea. The carrion exudes an unpleasant smell, and they come to the sea with the slight bubbles and fill the air.
The smells were really pungent and even dazzling, and they could not be completely dispelled by using the formation. The disciples of Bihu Peak stationed in the West Sea Islands were a little miserable.
Bihu Peak Master Cheng Youtian participated in the sect leader meeting, and last year's Lengshan Battle, and now he has returned to the West Sea. He is very clear about the feelings of the elders and disciples. Although the sea in front of him is magnificent, the taste is far worse than that of Bihu Peak. Moreover, although the spiritual veins here are good, how can you reach the green mountains?
He sighed, wondering when will the young master call back people?
Just as he was thinking about this, a bright red sword light suddenly appeared in the sky. He was slightly stunned and quickly took his disciples out to greet him.
What he didn't expect was that the young leader actually came.
"Let Shi Yuefeng come here for you in four years."
Before Cheng Youtian could speak, Jing Jiu said directly.
Four years are not too long for practitioners, so Cheng Youtian is not good enough to ask for anything else.
...
...
According to Jing Jiu's request, Cheng Youtian left.
Zhao Layue glanced at him and asked, "Why is it four years?"
This period cannot be said casually by Jing Jiu, and it must have profound meaning.
Jing Jiu did not explain and said to Ada: "Look for it."
Nanji was expelled from Qingshan and the former immortal sword cave he met was said to be on this island.
After Qingshan Sect obtained the West Sea, it had already searched carefully many times, but no discoveries were found.
The legendary Sword Immortal secret book should have been taken away by the West Sea Sword God, but why is there no other trace here?
What Jing Jiu was looking for was not that secret book, but something else.
Not long after, a white light returned to the stone window like a huge painting.
Ada shook his head, not finding anything.
Even a guard in Tongtian Realm could not find any trace. Is the legend just a legend? The story of the previous sword immortal is fake?
Zhao Layue said: "If you are looking for some ordinary traces, maybe it's in an ordinary place."
They went to Shaoming Island.
The first half of this island was cut off by the Sword God of the West Sea. Those tunnels and array eyes, as dense as spider webs, were like an unruly combination of points and lines, exposed in people's sight.
Looking at the picture in front of him, Jing Jiu naturally remembered the heavenly tribulation caused by the immortal talisman, remembered Liu Ci, and was silent for a while and then remembered the childish face.
Tongyan has not come back in the underworld, and I don’t know what happened.
A strong wind broke out in the library, and all the books were suspended in the air, rustling by the wind, as if they were flipping by countless invisible hands.
Jing Jiu stood in this sea of books, read for a while, and reached out to take down one.
That is a very ordinary record of Sword Immortals, which talk about the imagination and yearning of mortals for the world of cultivation. They are basically ridiculous words and are not worth mentioning.
But on a page of that book, someone left a sentence.
"I am both immortal and crazy."
