The world was quiet for a few seconds, and it took Ruan Xianbei a long time to find his voice. She realized that this was the key to the plot.
"Didn't you suffer God's punishment because you saved your beloved wife?"
In fact, based on what the old monk had said before, as well as the few words in the conversation between Tiankui and Mu Huaxiao, Ruan Xianbei, who was at the center of the vortex, walked over like he was upgrading and fighting monsters and doing tasks, and he could probably guess what it was about.
She asked this now as if she was triggering an important plot.
Well, not entirely, she didn't know how much of the world she had peeked into, and she still wanted to know the whole story.
Old Man Tiankui touched his beard and said slowly, "That's only a small part of the reason."
As the old man Tiankui spoke, he dug a path beside Ruan Xianbei and leaned forward, "You should know this. We in Cangshan have a special skill called divination. Not long after my wife fell ill, I returned to Cangshan to conduct a divination. The hexagram, in addition to showing what I want, there is also an inexplicable warning."
"I was confused and curious, and I immediately forgot about my master's warning. Young people are so ambitious that they always feel that something big is waiting for them - I didn't expect that this is really a big thing. .”
Old Man Tiankui recalled that night. He watched the stars at night to find out where the warning in the hexagram came from during the day. The two stars were opposite, one was shining fiercely with red light and the other was flashing with weak white light. The star sign matched the hexagram sign. All are signs of chaos in the world.
He was shocked and went to look for his senior brother, Taoist Priest Yuan Zhen. Yuan Zhen had just inherited the position of Taoist Priest and was very busy at that time, but he had never doubted Tian Kui on such important matters. In terms of qualifications and talents, Tian Kui was better than them. Everyone needs to be taller.
Yuan Zhen followed Tian Kui to see the stars again. It was indeed what Tian Kui said, but he also made a new discovery.
There was a small star twinkling under the faint starlight. Tiankui didn't notice it at first because he was too panicked. Now that his senior brother was by his side, he made up his mind to find a way out again.
Didn't this allow him to find it.
This small star is wrapped under the big star. It flashes less frequently and its light is fainter, but its existence can be noticed.
Tian Kui looked at it carefully and said, "The demon star will be born in ten to fifteen years."
"If we can see it, others can also see it." Yuan Zhen reminded him, "The first thing is to find the source of the chaos. Remember not to spread what happened today to avoid causing disputes."
In the end, Yuan Zhen comforted him and said: "It seems that the two stars are not very obvious now. It is a good thing to find them early. Don't worry too much."
"Yes, senior brother."
"By the way, how are your siblings?"
Yuan Zhen changed the subject, and Tian Kui breathed a sigh of relief. He was relieved to have his senior brother to handle the matter.
After Yuan Zhen learned about this, he and other sect leaders warned the discussion with hexagrams, asking each sect to pay more attention to the developments in the world in the past few years. This is all a thing for the future.
Tiankui and his wife bought a house in the village at the foot of the mountain, and the two of them lived here. It felt more secure to live here with their own people.
After a few months like this, suddenly one night there was lightning and thunder. Tiankui woke up at night to check whether the doors and windows were closed properly. When the window was closed, a flash of lightning flashed in the sky. Tiankui looked over. At this moment, his consciousness I don't know where it was sucked.
When he came to his senses again, he was already covered in cold sweat, his clothes were soaked, and at the same time there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Tiankui pressed his chest to calm his breathing. The rain outside the window was loud. The rain on the summer night was heavy and fast. He told his wife who was woken up, put on some clothes and went up the mountain in the rain.
He just saw some pictures, saw the culprit who caused the turmoil in the world, and saw what he looked like.
Even though he still looks young, or rather - still young.
Tiankui was only in his early twenties at this time, and the boy looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. .
Tiankui couldn't understand how such a simple young man could be the source of chaos in the future. But the situation was serious, and he couldn't think too much about it.
Lu quickly walked to the hospital where Yuan Zhen lived.
There was a huge thunder in the night, and purple lightning almost tore half of the sky apart.
There was a young disciple patrolling the mountain gate. He heard the sound of someone going up the mountain from a distance and immediately went into alert mode. Tian Kui raised his voice and said hello. The young disciple reacted and saw that the figure had passed a few feet away.
At midnight, Yuan Zhen had already fallen asleep.
"Senior brother! Senior brother! Senior brother!"
Tiankui came in such a hurry at night, and his senior brother woke up Yuan Zhen three times like a ghost and told him what he had discovered.
After listening to what he said, Yuan Zhen frowned: "How to prove that the boy is the source of chaos? Just relying on your intuition and hexagrams is not enough. Besides, you only saw his face, how can you know where he is? His last name. Who is your name?"
"But! Now we have to kill him before he grows up——"
"Innocent."
Stifled in the cradle...
Before Tian Kui could finish his words, he was killed by Yuan Zhen's warning eyes.
"I... just feel very uneasy..."
He sighed, where can you find a young man in such a big world?
If he keeps hiding, if he doesn't show his talent, if he doesn't reveal his ambition, he will be like a drop of water hidden in the ocean.
Difficulties abound.
Ruan Xianbei: "So you've been looking for opportunities to kill Mu Huaxiao in advance?"
Old Man Tiankui: "There weren't many opportunities given to me. The hexagram predictions were just warnings. What I saw was not what I should have seen. I don't know why I saw it. I didn't know it at that time. The more I spy, the more God watches me."
"Senior brother didn't let me interfere too much, but how could I listen? So I was finally targeted by Heaven."
"On my way to pursue Mu Huaxiao, one day a thunder struck beside me in the clear sky. At first I thought it was just an accident. How could I attract thunder if I didn't break through? But this thunder chased me all the way, and I just thought it was an accident. I tried to hide in the house when I could escape. The house was demolished and the clothes on my body were torn. From day to night, I was mentally and physically exhausted. It was also because of this that I accidentally stepped into a pit, which might be a hunter's. The trap may also be a defense for the villagers, I don’t remember.”
"After I fell down, the thick leaves still covered most of the cave entrance. The cave was so narrow that there was nowhere to escape. I thought at that time how many times I could withstand thunder? Will I be able to ascend if I survive?"
"But I didn't wait for the next thunder. I suddenly thought, would I be safe underground?"
The old man Tiankui sighed, what happened decades ago is still vivid in his mind when he thinks about it.
