In the small courtyard, the atmosphere was solemn, and even the noisy insects and ants in the grass held their breath in peace. Suddenly, a bird landed on the fence, glanced at it, and flew away in fear.
Wu Gen turned to look at Luo Bing, who looked solemn, "Housemaster, how do you feel? What I said was wrong."
Luo Bing restrained some of his surging murderous intent, and relied on it to withstand Qiu Jin's weird methods. "Sure enough, he has some tricks. Unknowingly, he is close to this thief. This kind of method, Run Things are silent and weathered. If you hadn't reminded me before I came here, I might have reached the limit at this time. The master of Tiandao Sect does indeed have some tricks up his sleeve."
Qiu Jin looked slightly surprised and looked Wu Gen up and down. "My method is not harsh. What I emphasize is follow-by and subtle. Not to mention ordinary people, even cultivators are difficult to resist. I didn't expect that I would still be defeated by Your Excellency." See it.
To be honest, I am very inferior in terms of fists, feet and cultivation. Over the years, he has been able to recruit so many disciples, mostly thanks to this method. The girl behind you, don't be so nervous. Since you are on guard in your heart, you won't be fooled by it anymore. You can kill me with just one punch.
After practicing here for many years, this was the first time I met a soul master. No matter what my stance is, since I am a fellow-minded person, I would like to discuss soul skills with this little brother. how? ” After saying this, he looked expectant, and it didn’t look like he was being fake.
Wu Gen glanced at Luo Bing, who showed no objection, and then said with a smile: "It's all right, but how do we compete."
Qiu Jin made an invitation gesture and sat down in the courtyard, "You and I each enter the other's soul and test our skills. Don't worry, the girl is here. If there is anything wrong, I will kill the old man with one punch."
Wu Gen immediately sat down in front of the other party, "Waiting for your arrival."
Gently cupping his hands, Qiu Jin smiled slightly, "I'm offended."
The two men closed their eyes slightly, less than three feet apart, and began to compete on the spot. Luo Bing curled his lips and loosened his clenched fists. Looking at the situation of the two people, they actually felt a sense of sympathy for each other. Could it be that the soul masters were both madmen.
In Wu Gen's mental space, Qiu Jin's figure vaguely appeared. His body was composed of countless colorful lines, and it was full of light. From time to time, light spots flew out of his body like sparks.
Seeing Wu Gen, Qiu Jin couldn't help but be surprised and said: "No wonder it can block my means. It turns out that the soul has already transformed, interesting and ready to take the moves." As he spoke, his figure danced, and the light on his body kept flickering. After practicing for a long time, Wu Gen also realized that this was the soul's voice and it should be a curse.
Shining silk threads flew out of Qiu Jin's body, winding and dancing, trying to bind Wu Gen. This is Wu Gen's territory. As he laughed, Wu Gen's figure had disappeared from where it was and reappeared in the distance.
Qiu Jin didn't expect to hit the target with one strike. Ever since he broke into the Soul Space, he discovered that Wu Gen's attainments in the Soul Path were no less than his own. It is rare to meet such a well-matched opponent, and I am not surprised but happy.
With a slight thought, those shining silk threads no longer captured Wu Gen, but instead circled and twisted in place, entangled with each other, and finally formed the shape of a guqin. The body of the piano is simple and simple, the strings are crystal clear, and the whole body is shining, which is very eye-catching.
The strings vibrate, and a clear and low sound comes, erratic and lingering, like the flow of a spring, or like rain blowing on the sea of bamboo, with a hint of sadness and sadness in the tranquility.
There was a person in front of me, his back was bleak, he was walking alone on the small bluestone street. The soft rain fell on the trees on both sides, splashing teardrops.
There is a strong wind, a strong rain, and a cold feeling. The road ahead is bleak, with lonely shadows and pale bamboos. I can't wake up from the dream, but only one owl crows.
Alas, Wu Gen secretly sighed, what a good trick, such a scene is exactly what he thinks.
My own state of mind, to put it in one sentence, is that the journey is difficult, the road is difficult to navigate, and I am wandering in various places, just like I am not tied to a boat, and I am drifting back and forth, but I don’t know where I am going.
After comprehending it for a long time, Wu Gen returned to his original position and said, "Thank you." He saluted Qiu Jin. With a wave of his hand, stars were dotted deep in the space, and the sound of waves came. The waves came in, easily suppressing the sound of the piano, and the guqin suddenly fell apart.
This gift was sincere. Qiu Jin's faint song didn't seem to have any great power, but it could go straight into his heart. The scene just now was not an illusion, but my own
What appears in the mind is just that Qiu Jin enlarged it and made it more concrete.
After playing a song, you will understand your own state of mind. When you practice in the future, you can always alert yourself to avoid sinking into it step by step without knowing it and breeding evil thoughts.
Don't underestimate this level of mind. It is easy to recognize people, but difficult to understand them. There is a saying that there is darkness under the lamp in the world, which means that many people in the world have eyes outward, but it is difficult to reflect on themselves.
He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise. It’s just a mortal. For practitioners, if you can’t ask yourself and understand the true nature, sooner or later you will be haunted by inner demons and become dejected. In more serious cases, you may even end your path of cultivation and your body and mind will disappear.
Qiu Jin looked surprised. The sound of waves in the space easily destroyed his own method. The sound of the tide crashed into his mind again and again, and his consciousness showed signs of disintegration. Knowing something was wrong, he turned around and left. But as soon as the idea came to mind, a butterfly and a long-nosed monster appeared next to me. As soon as the two appeared, he could no longer move.
Knowing that he would inevitably die today, Qiu Jin didn't want to escape, "Could that sound of tide just now be..."
"Yes, it's the sea of consciousness." Wu Gen said calmly.
Qiu Jin suddenly became excited, "I thought that I have been practicing for decades, but I have never entered the sea of consciousness once. I didn't expect to get a glimpse of my true face today. I will die without regrets. I will die without regrets. I heard that there are successive generations, and my little brother is so young. , but you are ahead of me. With people like you, your soul will never be destroyed and your luck will still exist."
Wu Gen was silent, Xianjiang was like this, Qiu Jin was like this, soul master, it was unreasonable.
Qiu Jin raised his head and laughed, his body gradually separated, turned into a little light, and finally disappeared into nothingness.
With a long sigh, Wu Gen opened his eyes. Opposite him, Qiu Jin's head was tilted to one side, and he was already dead.
He stood up and walked to Luo Bing, but the other party took a step back unconsciously, "Boy, stay away from me. You soul masters are so treacherous that it's hard to guard against them. Tell me, did you use any tricks on me, such as letting me get away from you?" I secretly like you."
Wu Gen looked at Luo Bing, who was carrying a long sword, and sighed: "Master, I think I am a little weak, so how can I dare to climb high? I still think I can live a few more years."
"You know what's going on." Luo Bing said proudly, "It's not okay to have a secret love."
At this moment, a cry of surprise came from the distance. On the small road in the village, Feng'er hurried over with a basket of wild vegetables in hand.
Rushing into the yard and running in front of Qiu Jin, Feng'er shook her head anxiously, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Get up quickly."
Qiu Jin called for a long time, but there was no movement. Feng'er gently put Qiu Jin on the ground, bursting into tears, and slowly turned to look at Luo Bing and Wu Gen, "How did my father offend you two, and why did he do such a cruel thing." He said with an angry look at Wu Gen, "My family is poor. , I don’t have any money. If you are not greedy for money, what are you trying to do? You thief, I thought you were kind back then, but you didn’t expect that you are also a vicious person. I tell you, even if you kill me, I won’t obey you.”
Luo Bing did not answer, but looked at Wu Gen with interest.
Wu Gen shook his head and tsked, "Feng'er, don't let these little girls show off. To be honest, I already want to belong to someone, and I really can't look down on you."
Let me ask you, is Qiu Jin really your father? He has been the leader of Tiandao Sect for so long, don’t tell me that you don’t know anything about it. I see that you also have special powers. Everyone is a sensible person. Please don’t tell me that you are innocent. "
Slowly getting up, Feng'er's face was as cold as frost, and he gritted his teeth and said: "What the hell are you talking about? Yes, I am not my father's biological child, but I was raised by him since I was a child. How is it different from my biological father? From childhood to Big, we are dependent on each other. I originally wanted to marry a good family so that he could live a long life, but I didn't want to die at the hands of you two today.
I know that you, including those people a few days ago, are all of noble status, and you can plunder and do whatever you want by giving us any crime. Although Feng'er came from a humble background and was not very capable, she still had a strong character. Even if she died, she would avenge her father. "
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands flatly, and his whole body burst into flames. He slowly rose up, turned diagonally and flew into the air, turning into a firebird with long red feathers. Wherever it passed, vegetation was set on fire.
After flying in a circle, the Firebird suddenly turned sharply and rushed towards Wu Gen with the thick smoke billowing behind it.
, seems to believe that this person is the murderer of his father.
Looking at the roaring firebird, Wu Gen couldn't help but be speechless. If you want to kill him, just kill him. He talked so much before the fight. It looks good but is of no use. If you meet an experienced opponent, you may be taken down before you even take action. It seems that Feng'er is really not good at fighting. Could it be that Qiu Jin didn't tell her the real reason and carefully protected her under his wings, so he really felt like licking a baby.
Otherwise, if you still come here to provoke me with just this little skill, don't you think Luo Bing, a powerful person, is still here? Wu Gen stepped in front of Luo Bing and said, "Housemaster, you know that I never hit women. Now I have to ask you to take action to stop this little hooves."
"Who gave Su Jianyu the whip?" Luo Bing glanced at Wu Gen and saw no movement from him. He stretched out his hand to grab the fire bird, and actually strangled the fire bird's neck tightly. With a slight exertion, Fire Bird fainted immediately and transformed into Feng'er again.
Throwing him to the ground casually, Luo Bing said loudly, "Looking at the condition of this little girl, it seems that she really doesn't know Qiu Jin's identity. Now she is in trouble. The relationship has already been formed. We can't just let him go." Otherwise, what will happen if I seek revenge in the future?"
Wu Gen quietly glanced behind him and nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, even if she doesn't know, she is holding a grudge now and will take revenge in the future. If she doesn't kill the snake, she will suffer all the troubles in the future. Master, you might as well get rid of her roots and destroy her. Let the father and daughter have a companion underground."
"Okay. Let's do it." Luo Bing pursed his lips at Feng'er, who was just showing off her beauty on the ground.
"Okay." Wu Gen took out the broken knife, "Forget the head, leave her whole body." He walked in front of Feng'er, walked around in a circle, looking for the place to cut the knife.
"Hey." Wu Gen raised the knife in his hand high and was about to cut it off when a shout came from the distance, "Wait a minute." Following the voice, a man ran over with an anxious look on his face. It was because he was recovering from his injuries that he didn't come with him. The unity of this.
Qi He rushed to Luo Bing and knelt down with a plop, "Housemaster, I am willing to be a guarantee. This Feng'er must not have participated in the evil deeds of Tiandao Sect. Please let her go, Master. If you are afraid of causing trouble to her. , but she can be imprisoned in the back mountain of Shenwuyuan, under the supervision of a villain. If something goes wrong, the only one who can ask questions is the villain." As he spoke, he kowtowed several times.
Wu Gen and Luo Bing looked at each other with proud expressions on their faces. They were hiding together in the forest just now. The two of them had already noticed it, so they sang in harmony.
Luo Bing couldn't hold back her curiosity. She looked at Qi He and then at Feng'er, "Ahem, it's not impossible to spare her, but you have to make it clear about your relationship. Otherwise, the master of this hospital will only suspect you. She is the female cadre of Tiandao Sect." qδ
After hesitating for a long time, Qi He finally said: "Little man, I fell in love with her as soon as I saw her."
"love at first sight?"
"……right."
