Chapter 194: Three thousand avenues, only picking longevity(1/2)
Xuyun's words were like lightning strikes.
Falling in the heart lake.
Ning Yi's expression became dazed. It took him a long time to realize... what the master said.
A long time ago, Pei Min came to Lingshan and deduced the future with Xuyun here.
The descendants of the General's Mansion were cursed, so the moment the girl was born, she was destined to be a "dead man". In order to avoid the fate of disasters, she was taken to Xiling.
So……
Pei Yatou’s encounter with herself was not an accident, but a “destined”?
A sword-holder is a taboo that cannot be used to fortune-telling.
Even Xuyun was no exception, so he didn't know what the image of the "Sword Holder" who came to Lingshan many years later... but he found the lifeline of the girl.
That's why he shouted the name "Pei Lingsu" so accurately.
A very light sound rang in the quiet room.
"Destiny...catastrophe..."
Ning Yi's lips were gently pulled, and the hairpin broke when he was confronting Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. His long hair spread out and fell scattered in front of his cheeks, covering his eyes.
The young man kneeling on the floor of the quiet room had a murderous aura.
He asked in a joking voice, saying word by word: "Is there really such an illusory thing in this world... there is really a 'destiny disaster'?"
Too ridiculous.
But Ning Yi actually already knew the answer.
On this trip to the east, he had already seen the "wish power" that Dongtu was not believed by outsiders.
Those illusory things actually exist.
The calamity of fate...of course.
...
...
A long sigh.
Xuyun's figure slowly fell down, came to the young man and stretched out a hand.
Ning Yi didn't go to pick him up.
He supported the ground with both hands, slowly stood up, then pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand, supported his arm, and slapped his body with Xiaoxue. The injuries after the battle had not fully recovered because of the vitality of the new word scroll, so there were still bursts of pain in the depths of the spine.
Ning Yi's body, the deepest part of his bones and flesh, kept trembling "slight" trembling, like an electric current, passing through his limbs and bones and passing onto the cortex.
But all these pains were suppressed by his willpower.
"So you knew the existence of 'me' a long time ago."
He kept his head down slightly, his messy hair still covered his eyes.
The voice was hoarse.
No direct look at the old man.
Xuyun sighed lightly: "I know there is such a person in the world, but I don't know what he looks like and where he grows."
Master Xuyun's tone was obviously filled with some guilt.
He should indeed be ashamed of this. When the two met out of some kind of "calculation", would the original pure feelings change because of this? He is a Buddhist practitioner, and monks should not lie. When the cause and effect are settled today, he chose to confess to Ning Yi and expose all the "layout" of that year.
really.
Xuyun's eyes fell on Ning Yi's body, and the young man's whole body was trembling, especially his hands. The palm of the sword was no longer stable, while the other hand was tightly clenched together, wishing to break the skin of the palm.
The master's expression was a bit complicated.
He could probably guess what Ning Yi was thinking at the moment.
It must be memories of the past...and the contradiction after knowing the truth.
Xuyun wanted to comfort him, but as soon as he opened his lips, Ning Yi's voice interrupted him.
“So…if not
With me, the girl has died once, has she?"
Xuyun was stunned.
He saw Ning Yi's raised head.
The breeze blew up the hair that covered the eyes, and a pair of slightly wet eyes revealed. Ning Yi's expression was three points of pain, seven points of relief, and he laughed tremblingly: "It's so good... at least I saved her once."
The old man, who was already in a soul state, had his eyes trembled after hearing this sentence.
Completely lost,
He never expected that the young man would react like this...
He thought of General Pei Min leaving Buddhism, after some search, he passed it to Lingshan, and what he passed it to him.
"That little guy from Xiling is very good, very good."
"My daughter can be entrusted to him with peace of mind."
Xuyun looked at Ning Yi's eyebrows and he fell into a trance again.
It seems like I'm back five hundred years ago.
I saw the familiar "black robe".
The "sword holder" who seems cold but has a passionate heart and is very humane.
The last time I met... it happened a long time ago...
There is no time to think deeply.
Ning Yi's voice interrupted his thoughts again.
"Master Xuyun, I want to save the girl... Please tell me what I should do."
The old man suddenly woke up.
Ning Yi stood on Xixue, and there was no trace of wavering in his eyes, "Since I am the 'sword holder', it is an exception to this world... I can save the girl once, and I can save her a second time."
Too familiar.
This sentence...
Xuyun looked at the young man, he pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "The blood in the general's mansion is stained with an irresistible 'life disaster'. If this power is not wrong, it comes from the 'dark creatures' outside the world."
Ning Yi's pupils contracted.
"Pei Min came to Lingshan... not just to discuss how to crack his daughter's 'life disaster'."
The old man told a huge secret.
"As the original deity of the 'source of the life disaster', Pei Min himself...he hasn't lived for long."
Sixteen years ago, Pei Min secretly came to Lingshan and asked Xuyun for an explanation.
And then, the Tiandu Incident.
Pei Min died in the showdown with Taizong.
All of this seems so reasonable in the torrent of history, but if Xuyun hadn't spoken, who would have known that General Pei Min would not have had more life span?
Ning Yi was shocked and murmured: "So... Mr. Pei Min proposed to go to the world of the demon clan and kill Baidi... because he can't live for how long?"
Xuyun nodded calmly.
"Yes... the general's life is not long, but this matter cannot be told to outsiders. If it is reported, a turmoil will surely be caused by the city of northern border."
The old man was silent for a long time.
"Pei Min's plan to assassinate the 'Baidi' was suppressed by His Majesty. This matter was severely opposed by His Majesty." Xu Yun smiled and said, "The matter about the 'life disaster'... actually Taizong knew about it."
The second thunder.
Ning Yi's mind was blank.
"The Pei family's 'life disaster' cannot be solved at all. Even if the state of cultivation reaches the highest point of Nirvana, there is no hope for the answer. Therefore, Pei Min thought of challenging the White Emperor, killing the White Emperor if he succeeds, and even defeating the Life disaster. And... using this battle to seek his own 'breakthrough'."
Xuyun looked at Ning Yi, and his expression became solemn and serious, saying: "I deduced a life in Lingshan back then.
.”
"About breaking the vitality of 'life disaster'..."
The master lowered his voice, "Or, become immortal."
"Or...break Nirvana."
Ning Yi was confused when he heard this.
"Is there any difference between breaking Nirvana and becoming immortal...?"
