"Ruxue, can't you come out of here again? Are you going to stay in this forest forever? I tried to calm my tone as much as I could, but even a fool could hear that my voice was shaking uncontrollably.

I don't understand the message of the master too much, especially when it involves time and space, after all, it is too far away from my world and my cognition, and even what kind of opportunity the master used to enter the tomb, and when to enter the tomb (after all, the weakness of this dragon tomb array only appears once in a few hundred years), because it was destroyed and some traces were lost, I don't know very well. But I clearly saw one thing, that is, even if Ruxue enters the tomb with the blessing of the ancestor, it is still more or less dangerous, and the Dragon Tomb Array will be stable in the future, and it may not appear again in hundreds of years.

Even if I did, would I have to wait a hundred years?

Therefore, I couldn't refrain from asking this question any longer, what is the difference between such a parting from life and death?

Ruxue looked at me, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes, and then she closed her eyes, as if she remembered something, and was silent for a long time, before she suddenly said to me: "Chengyi, maybe I can still come out to see you, and you may also have the opportunity to come in and see me, everything depends on fate." ”

"Are you comforting me?" As I said this, my fists clenched so tightly that my nails pierced the flesh of my palms.

"No, Seiichi, you know I'll hide it from you, but don't deceive." Ruxue's eyes were very serious.

Or, what does Ruxue know? But I also know Ruxue, even if she knows something, it's not 100% sure of things, she doesn't want to say it, so she just tells me to follow fate, then let it be.

Life is like this, how can it be as good as it should be, but I want to be worthy of my heart, and I can't stay with each other as I wish, but I have loved her without shame.

Taking a deep breath, I finished reading the two messages full of questions from my master, and the remaining arrogant and wanton, but full of strength and thick familiar handwriting was left by my master.

It was just when I saw the first sentence that I began to feel sad.

So I remembered that year, when Master insisted on leaving for three years, and when I returned to the Beijing compound, I saw a letter from Master.

I still solemnly keep the letter, I dare not carry it, just because the letter has been yellowed, I have read it many times, the crease is already very fragile, I am afraid that one day, this letter will be broken, I don't even have a thought.

And the first sentence of the message engraved on the stone wall is exactly the same as the letter.

It turned out to be Chengyi directly!

Cheng 1:

After two years of farewell to the deserted village, I didn't expect to get Master's message here, and I also got your message.

Shi Zu left a message, calculating that future generations will encounter a catastrophe here, and asking me to work with him to resolve the catastrophe for future generations, I don't have to think that this catastrophe should be on your kid, so this is also your information, right?

It's really uneasy, boy life, why did I accept you as an apprentice?

Seeing this, I smiled, as if I could see Master standing in front of me, pointing fingers at me, blowing his beard and glaring at me, 'disliking' me, but when I was in trouble, he still did not hesitate

It's a pity that now the master has already left, let alone two years, I have spent 5 years in my thoughts and incomprehension, so only I understand how sad this smile is.

Seeing this, Brother Chengxin suddenly spoke: "Chengyi, I kind of understand a little, it turns out that Uncle Shi's 'influence' actually came from 7 years ago?" At that time, he hadn't left yet, had he? ”

"Yes, at that time, he didn't say that he was going to go out for three years, he didn't tell me what he was going to do, and after he came back, he didn't mention a word, it turned out that he had been to the Dragon Tomb at that time! Relying on an opportunity left by the ancestor, he had already been here before the Dragon Tomb formation was decided and opened. "I made my judgment, and if that were the case, everything would have been connected as normal.

Brother Chengxin pondered for a while, did not speak, but said, "Keep watching." ”

I nodded, and continued reading.

Chengyi, although you are an unconscious boy, I still care about you after all, just as I know that I will definitely leave you, let you grow up on your own, and face everything in this world by yourself.

I suppose when you found this message, I must have already left, right? I can't imagine how I would feel when I left you, just as I hadn't decided how I was going to leave you.

But I just hope you remember that no matter what kind of lifestyle you choose, Master supports you, and I only hope that you don't follow Master's old path, don't come to me, and having too deep an obsession in your heart is not necessarily a good thing.

I believe you can see this word, just like I read Master's message, I know that this calamity should be on you, in this case, you have no reason not to see it, I don't believe it, I can't save you as a kid with Master's shot, you are also lucky, the shelter left by Master should be on your kid's body.

What should I say? I found that there was no sense of parting, and there was not much to say, because in another year, I would be able to see you again, and now it is no difference.

However, when I think of one thing, I have some apprehension in my heart, if the calamity should be on you, then why are you here? Could it be that you have also embarked on my old path and started to follow in the footsteps of the previous generation?

That's it, that's it, Chengyi, in fact, I want you to live quietly, understand? Brat!

This word, in fact, is just what I want to tell you, I am like a father and son with you, aside from the inheritance, I also regard you as a son, so, in my heart, it doesn't matter whether you represent the inheritance of my Lao Li Yimai mountain lineage, what matters is just how Lao Tzu hopes that his son's life will be upside down, and Lao Tzu is afraid that he just wants his son to live a quiet and happy life, right?

I'm old, you've grown up, will you still be as obedient as you were when you were a child, I'm not sure, do your best, peace with destiny, everything is still arranged according to fate.

I've hollowed out the futon in this ashram, stinky boy, don't tell me you don't know what you mean?

That's all, by the way, Hui Jue said, if you can see it, then help him bring a sentence to Hui Gen'er, he also thinks that cakes are better than eggs, but he is a poor 'bald donkey', he doesn't have much money to buy cakes, and many times, when he buys cakes, he wants to rob Hui Gen'er.

Behind Master's writing, there is a row of crooked and not very well-engraved words, which read, sneaking back, specially explaining, my original words are about a poor monk, my eldest nephew does not know how to respect the old and love the young, I know that he will write a poor bald donkey, what I want to say is finished.

After all, Brother Chengxin had never lived with his master, so he looked at me in a cold sweat, looked at me in disbelief, and said, "Who wrote the words behind this?" Hui Ye? Master and Uncle Hui are too, right? ”

I looked at the wall with a somewhat sloppy gaze, and said with a smile on the corner of my mouth: "You haven't really lived with them, in fact, they are actually like this, this is the master I have always missed, and Uncle Hui and them." Can you see that Master is helpless to me? He was against me going to him, as he said, he wanted me to live quietly, but he felt that he might not be able to stop it, in order to try to avoid this kind of thing from happening, so, at the moment of parting, he chose such a nonsense way, so that now I want to cry as soon as I hear my sister, you boldly go forward this song, and he is still worried about me, afraid that really nothing can stop it, so he should have left me something in the hollowed out futon. ”

"You really know Uncle Shi." Brother Chengxin said with a sigh.

"Don't you know my second uncle?" I asked rhetorically.

Brother Chengxin's face suddenly became gloomy, and the whole person was a little stunned, and it took a long time before he said, "How is it possible?" That old man, if there are still a few people in the world who know him, I am definitely one of them. I miss him so much. ”

The atmosphere became a little sad, I instinctively put my hand on the left word, stroked the handwriting back and forth, and said: "Actually, I still know Uncle Hui very well, he is so, in fact, he is just expressing his thoughts about Hui Gen'er." Uncle Hui doesn't have much money, he is very hungry for Hui Gen'er's cakes, but he doesn't have money to buy them for Hui Gen'er, so Hui Gen'er eats them alone. It's just that what Uncle Hui doesn't know is that after he left, Hui Gen'er no longer eats cake. ”

"Chengyi, isn't your question back then answered in this message? Uncle Shi left like this back then, because he didn't want to leave any clues for you, and he didn't want you to embark on this old road, I would rather you hate him than want you to live a life of exile, do you still want to go to him? Brother Chengxin said quietly.

"There's no way not to look for it, even if I know the answer, I want to say, Lao Tzu is missing, his whereabouts are unknown, his safety is unknown, what reason is there for my son not to look for it? What's more, the disc "I didn't say any more, I was stunned, I always remembered that at the lake, Master's gesture, and it was definitely not a coincidence that I started repeatedly!"

"Yes, you think the same way I do." Brother Chengxin also answered.

At this point, the puzzle is roughly revealed, and a timeline is sorted out, that is, before the ancestor accepted the apprentice in his early years, he once came to the dragon tomb, took away the dragon soul, and solved a little bit of the puzzle about time and space in his heart! Many years later, for the sake of the four demon souls, we will revisit the old place, of course, there are other reasons to come here again, but the ancestor is unknown, and we can only guess that we can leave a piece of thought for Ruxue, and leave an opportunity and bless us.

Many years later, after the first battle in the deserted village, the master left me for three years, and in those three years, one of the stops was this dragon tomb, that year the dragon tomb did not show traces because of the unstable formation, and the master relied on an opportunity left by the master in the early years, entered the dragon tomb, saw the words, so as to follow the method taught by the master, sealed a spell, cooperated with the ancestor, and solved my crisis.

The fog has now dispersed, of course, it is only a layer on the surface, and there are many puzzles in the middle that have not been solved, just like what is the opportunity and shelter left by the ancestor? Why? Asylum is easy to explain, but what is the opportunity? Why do you want your descendants to enter the Dragon Tomb again? And what was the opportunity that Master got? And what hint did he get here?

It's a pity that all this is not something we can solve now, and we can only take one step at a time in the years to come, and slowly get closer to the truth.

Master, forgive me, this time, I won't listen to your words, whether it's Lao Li's fate or pain, I won't turn back after all.
