"I fulfilled our agreement. Now, it's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Lord Shuangyue looked at Ye Xuici's serious eyes. There was only determination in her eyes, and although her tone was not that strong, it was not difficult for Lord Shuangyue to feel her irreversible attitude.
"I will not break my promise. But please give me the amber first."
"You won't break your promise. Is it possible that you are afraid that I will break my promise?" Ye Xuici suddenly sneered, "You are a very capricious person. How could I, a little person, dare to play such a trick? What's more, if you didn't lie to me, Lin Tian The teacher must be nearby. If that's the case, then you shouldn't be nervous."
Lord Shuangyue looked at her and blinked twice slowly. Then she pointed to the door of the cabin behind her.
"Master Lintian is waiting for you here. Although you are not a small person, but what you said is that I shouldn't seem to be oppressing you. You can give me the amber at the end, but at least let me see One glance and I’m sure it’s in your hands.”
That's not necessary.
This woman's thoughts flowed directly into Lord Shuangyue's mind. She opened her mouth slightly in surprise, then nodded, opened the door behind her, and stepped aside. she says:
"I won't hear the conversation between you, please don't worry about this. I have other things to deal with nearby. When you leave, please hand the amber directly to Master Lintian, and he will transfer it to Me. But if you want to play any tricks, I will rush back as soon as possible. Although, I don’t think you will be Lintian Master’s opponent based on your strength.”
So confident, teaming up to bully a little girl. There shouldn't be any traps in this room.
We are not as cowardly as you, the Shadow Pavilion.
Lord Shuangyue frowned in displeasure, without even looking at her, and looked forward with empty eyes. Even in his heart, Ye Xuici was teasing her silently, and Lord Shuangyue responded unceremoniously. The two of them didn't quarrel on the surface, but they were whispering in their hearts. However, Ye Xuici did not read the flavor of conspiracy from her open thoughts, not to mention, they really didn't have the need. She slowly passed by Mr. Shuangyue's sword-like gaze, and Mr. Shuangyue slammed the door.
Then, she looked a little sad.
I hope this woman will not do anything more outrageous after learning the truth. The decision itself was risky enough... It was really bizarre that Shanhai would allow her to do such a thing.
Maybe not so bizarre either…that’s just who he is. He believed equally that all people had the right to know the truth. He is very powerful, both body and soul, and he even has the ability to interfere with the reaction of the party who knows the truth. If there were more saints like him in the world, the world would be much more peaceful. But why should such a saint carry so much alone? That's too unfair. Lord Shuangyue suddenly thought that maybe this is the reason why not all of the six impermanent people are so-called "good people".
That adult never targeted him, because they all knew that he would always implement his principles even if they did not impose any restrictions on him. Although there are some places that are contrary to that adult's philosophy.
But the world needs more spontaneous "good people".
Ye Xuici walked into the house, and when the door behind him slammed shut, everything became brighter. There were no lights in the room, but the charms on the walls were emitting a warm, soft light. She saw a large magic circle in the center of the empty room. A young man with an awe-inspiring celestial spirit was sitting at one end, his eyes tightly closed.
Is he the Lintian Master?
Ye Xuici slowly took a few steps forward, and the man spoke.
"Originally, when entering samadhi, one should choose a clean place outdoors to be close to the sun and moon. A heavy rain is coming tonight, and it will be difficult to get through the sunshine. Furthermore, considering that Miss Ye is a demon after all, it is necessary to set up charms and auxiliary spells on the four walls. The formation is difficult to achieve in an open-air environment. Don't be offended. I am not hostile to you, but there are many differences between humans and monsters, which are more dangerous. I have to restrict the environment in order to protect the souls of both parties. of stability.”
"Oh, it's okay." Ye Xuici looked around, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Without further ado, please start quickly."
"Girl, please take a seat."
Following Master Lintian's instructions, she sat in one place, followed the other person's example and crossed her legs, holding her breath and concentrating. The neat talismans on the wall were stuck neatly, and the runes written with unknown ink on them flickered on and off. But before the official start, Master Lintian was still ready to say something more.
"Some things may have nothing to do with entering samadhi, but since the time has not come yet, can you please listen to what I have to say?"
"It doesn't matter if you say so."
Ye Xuici always maintained a distanced respect for him. As a person who knows the secrets of the world and works in a place where the secrets of the world are known, of course she knows him and understands him - otherwise she would not ask him through Lord Shuangyue. If Lin Shanhai had something important to say, she would be willing to listen to it.
"You know so many secrets in the world, and you must have heard about your past life and Lord Jiyue from other people."
"Yes." Ye Xuici admitted generously, "I already know that one of my previous lives was his disciple. Their relationship should be good, so Lord Jiyue would save my life when I was a child. I think it was Nian On this level of affection.”
Lin Shanhai sighed slightly: "Hundreds of years ago, when I was still young, he once said this to me because of a small matter. He said: 'Repaying a favor is like taking revenge. You can't stop it even if you want to. He believed that I had been kind to him in my previous life, so he took advantage of the privileges of his status to protect me in all my life. Although he did not do everything in detail, he did protect me through many critical moments. Those principles, he He understands it better than anyone else, and sometimes even advises others not to worry too much about the season outside this life. However, that is also because those people are not capable. People like Jiyue Lord, if time and strength allow, will continue to do so. …He is actually a persistent and stubborn person.”
After listening for a long time, Ye Xuici felt that he understood what Lintian Master meant, but he didn't fully understand it. Perhaps the best time has not come yet, Master Lintian is not ready to perform this ceremony yet. So she asked further:
"So? Are you trying to say that I was kind to him in my previous life? Isn't she... his apprentice?"
"No, this is a little different. If I just tell you the specific things like this, you will definitely not be able to empathize with me. Your previous life was named Yun Qingzhan." Master Lintian said, "I will always remember that child, and I will always remember him. Her sister is called Yun Qingxian."
"I know that one of them is mute and the other is deaf. At first, they were all coerced by the Zuojin Sect to do things, and even went against you, Lintian Master. Later, it was Lord Jiyue who rescued them and took them under his sect, and they regained their freedom. "
Master Lintian was a little surprised: "You know quite a lot."
"But that's all I know. If you have something else to say, I'm all ears."
"Well... In this way, it seems that I don't have anything extra to say. The rest can only be left to meditation."
"So when can we start?"
"It's already started."
As soon as Master Lintian finished speaking, Ye Xuici was shocked to realize that he was in a completely different environment. She was originally in a wooden house, and the strong wind slapped the windows, showing the signs of a shower. But at some point, their ears suddenly became very quiet, and they were no longer in a dark room. Just like a dream, the owner of the dream finally realized a problem.
How on earth did I get here?
In this way, you can be sure that you are dreaming.
"I spent a lot of time entering this samadhi." Master Lintian stood next to her, "I don't want you to completely assume the identity of your previous life. I'm afraid it's easy for people like you to combine two different people. People got mixed up together, and in the end I couldn’t figure out who I really was. This was also a problem for Mr. Jiyue, so I changed my approach.”
"Being a bystander requires more preparation," Ye Xuici frowned, "but you don't have to do this."
"I am not only doing this for you, but also for Mr. Jiyue. I want some of your hair as a souvenir of him, and I also asked for many rare materials. I hope you can understand that this time I entered samadhi in the presence of many people. It was completed with joint efforts, I hope you will cherish it and appreciate our good intentions."
"oh."
Ye Xuici dealt with it calmly on the surface, but felt inexplicably nervous. She felt an unspeakable pressure. This kind of pressure is indeed given by Master Lintian, but she should not be worried about her being so "heartless". Are they really doing it for themselves? Not necessarily, maybe he just wants Lord Jiyue to get rid of himself as a burden. After all, Lord Jiyue is so gentle and kind, and he will not be cruel even if he fights against him.
She knew very well what was terrifying about Lord Jiyue: the dead bones under those sleeves had buried countless lost souls.
But those are evil ghosts after all, just poor people who hurt others for nothing and cannot be transcended. When no one can save them, destruction also becomes salvation. Whether Mr. Jiyue has any psychological burden or not, you have to ask him to know. Maybe, even he himself is not willing to explain it clearly to you. That's who he is.
"Where is this?" Ye Xuici looked around and judged that he was on a wide street in a town.
"It is a place built using Yun Qingzhan's memory. This place does exist, but it is slightly different from the current world. However, after so many years, I'm afraid this difference is no longer worth mentioning."
"Next to us is...a theater?"
"Yes. You are quite perceptive."
"Why is there no one here?" Ye Xuici looked around, "There's no one on the street, and there's no one in the building either."
"Yeah, but it happened soon. It takes time to reconstruct the memory." Master Lin Tian pointed at the two-story theater building and said, "In this memory, she was over thirty, but she was still young and beautiful. ——The bodies of those who practice martial arts age more slowly. After she and Qingxian were accepted into Jiyuejun's sect, they no longer dominated the world, but only occasionally did trivial tasks for their master. Jiyuejun was proficient in music theory and had a great sense of music. Qiang, what he taught them was not the martial arts necessary for being a killer, but... the etiquette and music that a literati should know."
"..."
"He wanted them to live a peaceful life." Lin Shanhai said, "It's only ten years. To Liudao Impermanence, it's just a blink of an eye. But to Qingzhan, she spent the happiest and most productive life in her life. Ten years of meaning. During this long period of time, she met a man by chance. He was not greedy for Qingzhan's beauty, nor did he mind her silence. He simply fell in love with that gentle and stern person. The sound of the pipa moves your face."
"Her music has murderous intent?"
"She is a killer after all. Although Mr. Jiyue has tried his best over the years to help the two of them eliminate the hostility in Leli, but with little success - they have suffered like that. It is better to say that compared to Qingxian, Qingzhan Even better.”
As the scenery became clearer and more real, Ye Xuici's heart beat faster and faster.
