The mountain forest is lush and the terrain is steep. Returning to the waterfall that we passed earlier, Taotie led Ji Qing and the ghost to rest here. During this period, Taotie checked Ji Qing's body several times and only cautiously relaxed after confirming that he was fine. Take a breath.
The essence and blood in the body was squeezed out by the blood pool heaven. Especially since this formation was originally intended to target the Di people, Ji Qing was deeply involved. Although he was rescued by Bei Mingpeng in time, some of the injuries he suffered should not be underestimated. Good It was in Beimingpeng that Ji Qing got rid of her remaining problems, which allowed her to wake up quickly.
The water of the waterfall flows straight down, and the water mist curls up, forming a seven-color rainbow in the pool water on the ground, like a dream, like a fairyland.
Yinhun stopped and stood on a rock. He first looked at the two people who were not far away. He saw Taotie and Jiqing sitting at the edge of the pool. The two women rolled up their trousers and their smooth white legs were soaked in the water. They were talking to each other. There is a smile, just like that fairy descending to earth, so beautiful that nothing can be found.
Soon, it looked away and looked at the palm of its left hand. For some reason, after leaving the prison, all the tangled curves on the wrist disappeared without a trace.
Bei Mingpeng went to a place where the prison law was deeper. He asked him to follow Ji Qing out of the abyss, saying that she would have a better chance to help him retrieve his memory. However, although Ji Qing was innocent and cute, his cultivation was worrying, and besides, Even though the mountains and seas are vast, how could Ji Qing know where to find his memory?
With so many thoughts, Yinhun had a headache. Thinking about it, it was all too complicated. The original impulse to sign a master-servant contract with Jiqing underground was now a bit tricky. Being restrained by this, it was getting in the way.
Just when it was in a trance, it saw a splash of water coming quickly. Yinhun looked on with cold eyes, and then smashed it into pieces with five fingers like hooks.
The vision disappeared, and Yinhun was stunned. He looked to the other side with a bit of confusion in his eyes, wondering why the good Taotie would take action against him.
"Since you have signed a master-servant contract with Ji Qing, you should know your responsibilities. She is your master and your servant. Within ten steps, you must guard her behind her. Do you still need me to teach you this? ?" Taotie said coldly.
Just when Ji Qing was about to explain something, her sister, who had been chatting and laughing with her earlier, immediately gave her a hard look. She was so frightened that Ji Qing quickly covered her mouth and did not dare to speak.
Yinhun frowned slightly, but his body slowly floated over and said truthfully, "Can I hear what you are whispering?"
Taotie sneered and said, "You're so close that you won't be able to claim your own ears?"
Yinhun laughed dumbly and did not open his mouth to answer. He just stood aside. For a moment, he placed his eyes on Ji Qing, his eyes as calm as water, and he still didn't say anything.
Ji Qing looked around, and after waiting for a while, he plucked up the courage to carefully pull the corner of Taotie's clothes, and said with a smile, "Oh, this is my first time too. Sister Taotie, just say it carefully. I believe it will remember it." of."
Taotie ignored it, and after confronting Yinhun for a while, he said directly, "Ling Jiuquan and I briefly talked about your deeds earlier. Since you signed this master-servant contract willingly, you must do your part well." What you should do. Now Ling Jiuquan has gone to the depths of the Prison Law to help Ji Qing find the traces of her clan members. From now on, Ji Qing’s safety will be entirely handed over to you. The master will be harmed and the servant will die. This truth couldn’t be simpler. You You must keep it in mind, otherwise it will be a long journey and you may die on the way before you can achieve what you want. Wouldn’t it be worth the loss?”
Yin Hun was slightly startled and nodded silently.
A trace of panic flashed across Ji Qing's face. He ignored the ghost's posture and said hurriedly, "Sister Taotie, are you saying that the master will not come back? We can wait for the master here."
Taotie sighed helplessly, pinched Ji Qing's cheek hard, and said, "Silly girl, it's not like you haven't been to the prison method before. Not to mention the twists and turns in it, even the blood pool heaven under the black wood cloth is mysterious. You Now that Master has found Xuanmu's aura, I think this journey won't be that simple for a while. Even if we wait here, we can't spend time here without a definite time, right?"
Ji Qing was still puzzled and said, "Why not? The prison law is unfathomable. Even if the master is very powerful, I am still worried about his safety. You refused to let him go down before. Now you can't wait for the master here. Where do you want me to go?"
Taotie's face changed slightly, and then he said righteously, "Ji Qing, you are not very experienced in the world and there are some things that you don't understand. I don't blame you, but you must not despise anything in this world. If you just rely on your passion, If you act recklessly, one day you will suffer a big loss. In the past, you were protected by your grandma, and then you met your master and me. Have you ever thought about it, if one day we are no longer by your side, if you encounter danger? How should we face it?"
"Sister Taotie, how could I not understand what you are saying? But if I am powerless or indifferent to the people I care about because of my own weakness, I would rather die than remain indifferent." Ji Qing said stubbornly.
As soon as these words came out, Taotie was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She didn't know how to talk about big principles, she just wanted to tell Ji Qing some concise and concise rules of survival, but when it came to Ji Qing's ears, the words seemed to have changed.
"I'm too lazy to tell you. Your master gave me a letter before. If I guessed correctly, there should be something he wants to say to you in the letter. Read it yourself." After saying that, Taotie's palms lit up, and a pink The letter appeared out of thin air.
Looking at the white envelope that came into view, the seal was a strand of Bei Mingpeng's pink hair, which looked extremely delicate and beautiful.
Ji Qing took the letter from Taotie, rubbed it gently with his fingertips a few times, then opened the seal and placed the letter in front of his eyes to observe it.
Taotie didn't want to linger here, and after winking at Yinghun, the two of them walked aside, while Ji Qing was still immersed in it.
The handwriting is delicate and simple, but it is densely filled with Bei Mingpeng's care and advice.
"Qing'er, when you see this letter, I am probably no longer with you. Don't worry. When I wrote this letter earlier, my original intention was for you to leave Jiuchonghai alone. It's just that people are not as good as you. God knows, some things have changed far beyond my imagination. The arrival of Hongmengshan and his party has disrupted all of my plans. Since there is no way to avoid it, let nature take its course. Naturally, I can't break my promise to you. .”
Somehow, just after reading the first line, Ji Qing's eyes were already slightly red. She knew that the master was busy with many things. Although he always acted like it had nothing to do with him, in his heart, he was filled with all kinds of things. This time he came here. There was no trace of grandma and her clan members. According to Master's promise, he must have put aside his own affairs to help him.
"Concentration is important in thinking, and there is no room for dabbling in it; learning is deep, and there is no room for impetuous dabbling. You have read this sentence in a book, and I believe you also understand the truth. This time I take the opportunity to say goodbye to you. As my teacher, I hope that you can experience the mountains and seas alone. The young eagle will eventually spread its wings and fly. You are no exception. During the period when my teacher is away, I hope that you can strictly discipline yourself, walk around the world with the principles in the book, and apply what you have learned. This is the Mahayana."
"You must be crying again when you see this. Just wait a moment. You must know that you are a disciple of Bei Ming Peng. I, Bei Ming Peng, have never accepted a disciple since ancient times. Since Qing'er is a disciple Master’s founding disciple, do you think you should be strong and brave? Besides, even if you want to cry, you must cry in front of Master, otherwise who will wipe you clean with clothes.”
Ji Qing smiled through tears, sniffed hard, nodded heavily, and said silently in his heart, "Master is not here, so you can't cry."
"Roads are carved out of thorny places. Stepping out of places where there are no roads leads to countless broad avenues in later generations. This path is not only the path you take, but also the path you want to pursue during your spiritual practice. , that is your direction, your destination. Teacher, preaching, imparting knowledge and solving doubts. These six words are all-encompassing. Even the teacher’s experience cannot be said to be able to answer you, so this requires you to experience and explore in person. , when you have a certain amount of experience, you will actually understand many truths without the need for a master to tell you, it will come naturally and naturally."
"Letting you sign a contract with the ghost under the prison law is the teacher's care for you. I know that you are innocent in nature. With it, you can always take your time. Its predecessor was a demon outside, but it doesn't know why it ended up here. The memory of The lack makes it eager to find its past self. This is an opportunity for the two of you. Everything depends on the chance of creation. I can't predict too much, but it is destined. I hope you can understand it. Each of us cherishes our thoughts and protects each other."
"At the end of autumn, it is the opening moment of the Emperor's treasure house. Taking this opportunity, if Qing'er is interested, you may wish to
If you go and take a look, your beloved brother Guyuan, who you have longed for, might also come. In this case, your wish will be fulfilled. If you are lucky enough to get the colorful stone leading to the Mountain and Sea Ranking in the end, my master will be very happy. At least I prove that your master's vision is still very good. You bring glory to the master. If you say this, you must not brag about it for the rest of your life. "
Ji Qing pursed his lips tightly. For a proud and arrogant person like Bei Mingpeng, when writing a letter to him, you can imagine how gentle and loving he was at that time.
"Learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. There are millions of words in the book that still require you to forge ahead and temper yourself before you can empathize with others. I hope that the next time we meet, it will not only open my eyes." , as well as your brother Guyuan, your grandma and your tribe, they must also hope that Qing'er will be better than before when he grows up."
"I have told you a lot about the truth before, my teacher. Talking to you is nothing more than my teacher's sustenance and longing for you. Whatever you choose is up to you, and I can understand it. Spring goes and autumn comes, and the cycle begins again and again. All things reincarnate, birth, old age, illness and death are normal in the world. If you only live one life, why not live a more exciting and joyful life. I believe you have been waiting for this day for a long time, and this time is the path you want to take, Qing'er. Waiting for you ahead, see you there or not."
"Remember, the sky will always be bright and the sky will be clear. Even if you miss the sunset and the stars in the sky, although Qing'er is a woman, she can still compete with men in terms of strength and bravery."
"The happiest thing in life is not to follow others and lose yourself, but to put all your strength and efforts into living more like yourself after experiencing everything. This is my teacher's way, and this is my teacher's entrustment to you. May you be clear Have a safe journey, son."
Ji Qing held the letter in her hand tightly, tears still falling for no reason, but she was clearly smiling from the corners of her eyes.
