Wang Yu, who had been expelled from his school, had finally recovered some strength.
"On weekdays, I don't have such a hard time as today!" Wang Yu got up and wiped the dirt from his face. Looking at the familiar environment in front of him, it reminded him of the senior sister who thought about everything for him and delivered meals many times. Su Xin sighed: "I didn't expect that things and people have already changed!"
He looked at this familiar place, memories came to his mind, and he couldn't stop crying. He once again looked lovingly at the house where Xuanzhenmen Yuxu lived. He knelt down heavily.
"Once a teacher, always a father! In the past ten years, the master has given his apprentice a new life! The apprentice has nothing to repay! Now, the apprentice is far away, but he can no longer always be with the master. I hope the master will take care of him!" After saying that, he kowtowed three times, but reluctantly raised his head.
After a long time, he raised his head that was close to the ground. For a moment, I didn't know where to go.
"This world is so big, I don't know where I can fit in?" I couldn't help but sigh, feeling desolate in my heart.
Due to the ban on Jade Market, no one who wanted to see Wang Yu off could do so. Among them, Yang Xingwang has the most intense temperament. But how could Yuxu go as he wished.
Looking at the figure leaving in front of the mountain gate, Yuxu finally couldn't bear to look up at the sky, closed his eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye. He said in his heart: "I hope you can understand the painstaking efforts of the master and study martial arts with good intentions in order to eliminate harm to the people as soon as possible."
But inadvertently, he fell down with some difficulty, which made Yuxu also feel a little strange. But he didn't pay too much attention to it. Maybe it was due to being overworked these past few days, so he didn't take it to heart. Turn around and walk towards the house.
Wang Yu stood up staggeringly and walked towards Liangshan where his senior sister was buried.
It sounds fast, but it has been a few days since Su Xin left. After several twists and turns, Wang Yu finally arrived at Liangliang Mountain.
Although it had been several days, the grave was covered with all kinds of flowers, which surprised Wang Yu. The flowers are colorful and full of fragrance.
"Senior Sister! Is it you?" Wang Yu, filled with tears, looked at the blood-red words and said, "Now that I have been framed, I have been expelled from the school by my master. Although the world is big, I don't know where to go."
Humans are a very strange species. How is it possible to say that they are not nostalgic? He still misses the past and misses every bit of the past. He leaned his head against the stone tablet, gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep.
For some reason, mist rose from the ground in the distance and headed towards where Wang Yu was.
All I saw was an old man walking out of the white mist.
Wearing a white robe, it flows in the wind. His appearance is old, his beard and hair are all white, his eyebrows are as white as snow, but he is energetic. With his Taoist crown tied into a bun, he suddenly looks like an immortal from the Nine Heavens has arrived. His eyes are bright, like the ethereal sky, which is unattainable and awe-inspiring, and like the vast earth, pure and gentle, which is admirable.
"The world is impermanent! It's unpredictable! Everything is fixed, and you don't need to blame yourself!" He walked toward him with a whisk in hand and a gentle expression on his face. Looking at the bright red word "Su Xin" on the stone tablet in front of him, the old man smiled and said to Wang Yu: "True and false, false and true! True and false, false and true!"
Wang Yu was surprised by the old man's words and didn't understand what he meant, so he stood up and asked: "Dare I ask the old god, do you mean the truth or falsehood of what you just said..."
"Hahaha..." The old man smiled, stroked his beard, and said mysteriously: "When the time comes, you will naturally understand."
"The world is like a chess game, and it has been plunged into flames. And you are the one who can turn things around! Only by breaking this chess game can we save all living beings in the world." The old man looked back at Wang Yu and asked, "I wonder if you can Are you willing to play this game?"
The old man's words reminded him of his lost relatives and what his master said to him, and even reminded him of the ancient secret letter.
"If you use me as the white chess piece, if you can win the health of the world and the people live and work in peace and contentment, then why not! Please give instructions to the old god!" Wang Yu immediately knelt down to the old man and asked him.
"That's good!" After the old man finished speaking, he held the Buddha dust and swung it towards Wang Yu's waist, and a wine gourd appeared on his waist.
"This is……"
"This is Drunk Immortal Wine. With it, you will be clear-minded and everything in the world will be clear to you. Of course, this is closely related to your profound skill."
"Thank you to the old god for the treasure!" Wang Yu kowtowed and thanked him, but when he raised his head again, he saw that the old god had long disappeared.
"call--"
A gust of cold wind passed by, and Wang Yu opened his eyes, only to realize that everything just now was a dream. When he stood up, he found that there was a wine gourd on his waist.
"Could everything that happened just now be true?" This made Wang Yu feel a little curious. He simply picked up the wine gourd, opened the lid, and took a sip.
Suddenly, a light flashed through his mind, and all the things he couldn't figure out were cleared up at this moment. He put the wine gourd back on his waist and looked at the word Su Xin in front of him.
"Senior Sister, I already know where I should go." Wang Yu looked at the surrounding mountains, turned back to Senior Sister Su Xin's grave and said: "From now on, I am no longer Wang Yu, but Zhao Yunxi. I, Zhao Yunxi, will uphold your righteousness and will never go back on my word even if the tide is gone. When I have the opportunity in the future, I will come to visit my senior sister again!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked down the mountain with a determined look.
After Zhao Yunxi left, there was another figure at the stone monument. It was none other than the mysterious Mr. Park who came and went without a trace.
"He finally cheered up! I hope our efforts were not in vain!" Mr. Park withdrew his gaze, looked at the colorful flowers on the grave, and said meaningfully: "Based on the time, you must have almost recovered! Continue. Come down, it’s time for us to show up!”
In the valley, in the pavilion.
"thump--"
A broken crow landed on Feng Xiyue's wrist.
I saw him take off the letter paper from the leg of the broken crow, open it, and write on it: The imperial power is in control, the dragon war is urgent!
"Hahaha——!" Feng Xiyue chuckled, and then said: "Cao Yanqing! Cao Yanqing! Do you think I am a fool!"
Feng Xiyue turned around and looked at the chess game on the stone table.
While squinting his eyes, the black chess piece in the center of the stone table was suddenly hit by an inconspicuous white chess piece in the corner, crushing it instantly.
Looking at the white chess piece in the center and the crushed black chess piece, Feng Xiyue felt faint. He then looked at White's original foothold, which made him feel scared.
"The white chess rises, and the black chess is broken! It's interesting to rise from a nobody and become a god at this moment!" Feng Xiyue held up the white chess, looked at the broken black chess, and had an idea in his mind.
"Wow——"
Feng Xiyue swept his hand over the black broken chess pieces, and saw that the black broken chess pieces instantly overlapped in his hand, with just a few more cracks. Then, the ghost mother threw it beside her, took out a black chess piece from the jar, placed it in the missing space, and said meaningfully: "The old chess piece is broken, replace it with a new one!"
"I obey!" The ghost mother realized the mystery, took the broken chess piece in her hand, and left.
"Hmph! Want to escape from my grasp and compete with me? How can I let you succeed!" Looking at the white chess piece in his hand, Feng Xiyue's eyes flashed fiercely, and he placed it at that inconspicuous place. .
"The world is big, and I am the only one who can look up to it! No one can escape from the palm of my hand. It is simply a fool's dream for a mere mortal to think of fighting with me! In this world, I can do whatever I want! It's not up to you. !" Looking at the inconspicuous white chess piece, it seemed that everything was under his control.
The chess game on the table could not be said to be subtle, but no one could see the secret behind it. The white chess pieces are all surrounded by black chess pieces. Although there are a few gaps left, who knows whether they are cash? Everything in the market is like the general trend of the world, all under his control.
At this time, on the road leading to the border. The army moved forward in a mighty manner, heading towards the border.
"General, I wonder what the emperor was talking about yesterday when he urgently ordered you to enter the palace?" Yu Tuo looked at Long Zhan with a puzzled look on his face.
"There is an emergency at the border. They say that there are barbarian tribes harassing the border. Let me lead troops to clear them out." Long Zhan said with a suspicious look on his face.
"What a coincidence! As soon as the general returned, Na Qu Changqing disappeared for no reason. Then you were rushed into the palace and told the general to report the emergency?" Yu Tuo doubted again: "In that case, why doesn't the emperor directly serve as a general? Why is it so unnecessary to issue an edict?"
"Actually, the emperor didn't receive it originally." After thinking for a moment, Long Zhan said suspiciously: "If my guess is correct, there must be someone behind this controlling everything. And this person is most likely Cao Yanqing!"
"Why?"
"Because I reported it to the emperor! So, he took the initiative and put all the blame on Qu Changqing, who committed suicide by taking poison and has been dead for a long time."
"What, Qu Changqing committed suicide by taking poison?"
"Exactly! Not only did he commit suicide by taking poison, but he also died not far from the capital. This is such a coincidence!"
"It turns out that the letter that the disciples of the Xuanzhen Sect sent to General Yu that day was actually evidence that Qu Changqing and the others were corrupt and perverted the law!" Yu Tuo finally remembered.
"That's right! Without that letter, we might not have been able to find the dozen boxes of gold and silver treasures hidden behind Qu Changqing's secret door!" Long Zhan sighed and continued: "Fortunately, we captured them in time. Come out. If it is used by those traitors, the consequences may be disastrous."
"Where did he, a dignified prefect and county magistrate, get so much money? Is there someone else behind this?"
"I'm afraid the people behind him are not just Cao Yanqing, but there may be even greater forces." As he spoke, Long Zhan fell into deep thought and asked for a long time, "Could it be them again?"
"General, who are they?"
"Oh! It's nothing!" Long Zhan looked around carefully to prevent thieves from getting in, and said with a smile.
Towards evening, Zhao Yunxi finally bid farewell to his parents' spiritual places and came to the immortal altar.
Here, the sea of clouds rolls, the morning glow turns half the sky red, and most of the cliffs turn red.
As the light dimmed, two words were displayed on the stone wall at the cliff - Immortal Altar
That’s right, it’s the Immortal Altar.
"Is this the place where the old immortal lives?" Zhao Yunxi looked around and saw a stone cave behind several canes. When Zhao Yunxi entered the cave, he saw mist rising and clear spring water flowing endlessly.
There is a throne on the stone platform. The golden light is shining and very brilliant.
"Although this place is good, it is not the place for me! I can wander around in the world, but where is the place that is not my fairy altar?" Seeing this, Zhao Yunxi sighed: "It seems to be drunk but not drunk, and it seems to be awake but not awake. . I don’t think the old gentleman wants to stay here forever!”
So, Zhao Yunxi looked at the entire cave, then looked at the throne on the high platform, knelt down to it, and said: "Yunxi appreciates the great love of the old gods. But Yunxi has his ambitions in the world and wants to live a little more freely. Gods can make it happen!"
After Zhao Yunxi kowtowed three times, a sound came from the stone wall behind him. He looked back and saw a poem written on the stone door:
The sweet rain falls at night and you are close to death; the blood drops on your eyebrows are hard to find;
After ten years of practicing martial arts, there is no hope. It is easy to find Longquan but hard to understand.
A confidante will never be forgotten, and there is no strong soul under the Longquan sword;
Falling flowers and running water are a thing of the past, and the world will be at peace.
"After ten years of practicing martial arts, there is no hope! Doesn't this describe myself?" After reading this poem, Zhao Yunxi seemed to feel that this poem had a lot of meaning, so he wrote it down.
In order to decipher the meaning of the poem, Zhao Yunxi waited until the next day to go down the mountain to find Ruoshui and decipher it for him.
[Question: 1. Who is the old god in Zhao Yunxi’s dream? Why does the wine gourd given to him in the dream exist in reality? What does his appearance mean?
2. What does Mr. Park’s words mean? Who could the white chess piece in Feng Xiyue's mouth refer to? Why? 】
