Chapter Ninety-Eight: No Bragging

In the quiet mountain village, only me and Jiang Xue felt the sober air in this area, the fragrance of flowers surrounded us, and the sound of flowing water from the small spring surrounded us. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of summer. At this moment, a ladybug flew and landed on her finger. She stretched out her fingers, letting the little ladybug crawl on her white and delicate jade hand, and whispered, "I'm sorry." ”

"It's come this far, so why apologize. In fact, to put it bluntly, no one has done anything wrong, and no one has done it right. If there's any pity, it's that I've lost the person I love the most. It's really strange, every time I saw you before, I felt beautiful and moving, my heart was constantly jumping, and I couldn't wait to hear your voice all the time. But now, I can talk to you calmly. I said with emotion.

Jiang Xue hummed softly, and she suddenly asked me, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”

"Where did you meet him?"

"Come with me."

She jumped off the rock, held up the oil-paper umbrella, and I walked with her in the hills. When I crossed the river, I saw the reflection above, and realized that my face was the same as it was.

No wonder they recognize me, it seems that the temple of history is indeed very powerful.

I walked with her to the top of the mountain, where there was a grave with the words "Jiang Xue's Tomb" written on it. She stood here looking into the distance and said softly, "When he met me here, he was a little guy who didn't know anything and didn't understand anything. I'll tell you something interesting, many people can't understand you, but I'm the one who understands the most. I think...... He is also the one who understands best. Once upon a time, he was a reincarnated like you. The difference is that his Li Hongchen is the reincarnation. My identity is the same, that is, on the surface, I help him, but in fact I do things for Li Hongchen. ”

"Oh?"

I said with interest, "I didn't know that you had such a time. ”

At that time, Li Hongchen had been dead for hundreds of years, and he wanted to be resurrected, so Jiang Cheng appeared. Forget it, let's not talk about this, all in all, you can see that he has come to a very high position......" Jiang Xue smiled bitterly, "It's really funny, that little guy has always been in the mountains before, the partner who talks to him is the tree, and the wolf who fights with him." It's such a kid who can't get enough food and clothing, and when he leaves this mountain, when he becomes a Taoist priest, guess what his goal is? ”

"Become the strongest Taoist priest?"

"No ......"

Jiang Xue shook her head and muttered, "He said...... He wanted to earn more than 10,000 yuan a month by being a Taoist priest, and then buy a small house and live a simple and quiet life with me. It's a pity...... It's such a small ideal, fate is not willing to give it to him. At that time, I watched him talk like naΓ―ve, as if listening to a child telling his ideals. So naΓ―ve, so innocent. Until he destroyed his dream with his own hands, so that he had to embark on the road of becoming stronger. In fact, everyone always likes to distinguish between the former Jiang Cheng and the current Jiang Cheng, but I don't like to distinguish between him, and I don't think he likes to distinguish either. We all know very well that you are pretty much the same person. You want to live a simple little life, but fate has pushed you on. In fact, stop and rest, you can all be redeemed, but you are all for the people around you, gritting your teeth and continuing to walk, not knowing what it means to give up. ”

I didn't say a word, just quietly looked at the quiet little mountain village below. Jiang Xue felt the refreshment of the breeze, and she stretched comfortably: "He never thought that he could go so high and so far, and I believe you are the same." When you ever embarked on this path, did you ever think that you would be where you are today? You don't want to go this far, but you can't stop. Not...... Jiang Cheng, I call you Jiang Cheng, do you mind? ”

"Call it, because in my heart, I am Jiang Cheng."

"It's okay, you all deserve this name......" Jiang Xue murmured softly, "Jiang Cheng...... Jiang Cheng...... Jiang Cheng...... It's a nice name, I once said something like that to him. I said that this name can be read a thousand times, ten thousand words, no matter how many times I read it, I think it sounds good and warm. Whenever I'm bored, I whisper the name. Actually, I know very well that Dongfang Xue is like this occasionally, and I sincerely wish her because she has found you. ”

"And then?"

"No more, so be it."

I sighed, and my heart was already a mirror. And behind me, a spatial rift appeared. I knew that as long as I put my foot in it, I could go back.

I turned around, but suddenly stopped, turned back to Jiang Xue and asked, "Let me ask you a question." ”

"Huh?"

"He and I ...... Who's stronger? ”

"How do you answer......" Jiang Xue recalled the past, and then smiled at me, "You are almost all the same, but unfortunately you are not as good as him." ”

"Why?" I asked with interest.

Jiang Xue said softly: "He learned to kneel, you didn't." ”

I said coldly, "I will never kneel, I will never give in to anyone." ”

"So you're not as good as him......" Jiang Xue showed me a gentle smile and said softly, "When you get to that day, you'll almost understand." He knelt down, so he went to the top. You haven't knelt, so you never know what you're protecting. ”

I chewed Jiang Xue's words carefully, but no matter how I thought about it, I couldn't figure it out.

I sighed, and then returned to the spatial rift, appearing in the Hall of History.

"It's a pity that I didn't learn anything."

I sighed and continued to walk forward.

There are countless paths, but not every one of them is suitable for me.

When I went all the way to the end, I still didn't learn anything. I couldn't help sighing, and after Zhao Xiaopeng walked to the end, he said to me very excitedly: "How much have you enlightened?" I feel like I've learned two ways! ”

"I don't have anything to gain...... I said lightly, "go back, I'm almost going to the space battlefield." ”

Zhao Xiaopeng sighed, he comforted me and said, "It's okay, although I didn't learn anything today, I still have a chance in the future." ”

I nodded, and then contacted the guards here and sent us back to the Immortal League.

When we got back to the Sky Eater's office, he asked us, "How much have you learned?" ”

Zhao Xiaopeng hurriedly said: "I learned two ways, but Bei Youqian's luck was a little worse, and he didn't learn anything, but it's a pity, alas, ......"

The Sky Swallower frowned when he heard this: "Haven't learned anything? Forget it, Zhao Xiaopeng, you go out first, and then prepare to go to the space battlefield later. ”

"Okay, remember not to scold too fiercely......" Zhao Xiaopeng didn't forget to intercede for me, and said to the Sky Swallowing Mouse, "He didn't mean it, he has made a lot of efforts to participate in the survival of the strong." ”

The Sky Swallowing Mouse waved his hand impatiently at Zhao Xiaopeng, Zhao Xiaopeng didn't dare to speak anymore, so he had to walk out of the office. After he went out, the Sky Swallowing Mouse said to me lightly: "Say, I have learned a few ways." With your strength, to say that you have not succeeded in enlightenment is simply nonsense, and I will not believe it. ”

I said seriously, "I haven't learned anything!" ”

"Impossible...... "Sky Swallowing Rat said coldly, "don't you have anything to gain?" ”

I thought about it for a while, and then said, "If I really want to say that, I have a little impression that my main body has learned the five ways of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, but I haven't learned anything myself!" ”

Sky Swallower nodded, and said, "Let me tell you a story, there was once a man who liked to pretend to be a woman, and then run out to show others, showing off that he could pretend to be a woman, and he never tired of it. Until one day, he was finally killed by lightning. ”

I cautiously asked, "What do you mean...... Don't pretend to be forced, pretend to be struck by lightning? ”

He nodded, looking at me with impatience in his eyes: "Yes, you can get out." ”

I let out a groan and walked out of the office aggrieved.

I obviously didn't pretend to be forced, but I just learned the five ways, is there anything to brag about?
