Too Reckless

Vol 11 Chapter 37: The past is like a cloud of rain

The latest website: Sha Sha Sha—

In the evening, the tourists in Meishan had already dispersed, fine raindrops sprinkled on the bluestone floor tiles, and the occasional sound of muffled thunder made the mountains appear more empty and lonely.

A tall woman in a long dress with golden dragon scales walked alone on the stone path and came to a stone monument in the woods that had long been indistinct.

The stone tablet made of marble is very old, the patterns and edges and corners have been eroded by wind and rain, and half of it is buried in the soil, and its original appearance has long been lost.

The woman in front of the stele did not leave any traces of time on her face. Compared with the stone stele, it was like people and things from two eras; I am afraid no one could imagine that this stone stele that has experienced wind and rain is actually a woman who once erected a stone stele. down.

Shangguan Yutang can't remember when he last came here, but he still remembers it fresh when he came here for the first time.

That was a long time ago, when there were no Nine Sects and Sword Imperial City in the world.

Shangguan Yutang walked out of the mountain alone, without relatives, carrying a small snake and a wooden stick, crawling and rolling in the wild and chaotic world, almost running all over the land of Kyushu.

As for the purpose, as I said before, it is nothing more than wanting to bring back all the people in the village.

Letting people who have escaped into reincarnation come back to life, it is not humane to go against the Tao of Heaven. After Shangguan Yutang saw it a lot, he slowly gave up this naive idea, and his goal turned to be the **** of mortals, and let the mortals at the bottom level. , someone to ask for in times of despair, instead of calling Tian Tian not like she used to.

Once you have a goal, you naturally need to accomplish it.

After some searching, Shangguan Yutang came to the southern part of Yuyaozhou, which was the most densely populated at that time.

As a foreign cultivator, Taoism is not very high, and it is obviously not easy to come over to be the boss in the south of Yuyao Continent.

Shangguan Yutang grew up alone in the wilderness, and he has a sense in his heart, but the way of doing things is the standard law of the jungle - I will be the boss if my fist is hard.

Yuyaozhou was full of experts at that time, and this style of behavior naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the local monks, especially the cultivator Nangongshan, the ancestors, the old, the middle and the young, who were beaten to the ground and begged for mercy. After being in the same hall, the immortals in the south directly fry the pot, and many immortals say that they want to suppress the arrogance of this foreign reckless husband.

Shangguan Yutang's life has been "advance and no retreat", and naturally he will not be soft, and whoever refuses to be beaten will still be beaten until he meets Mei Jinshui.

At that time, Mei Jinshui's status was no less than that of today's Eight Great Lords. After meeting her, he did not clean up her, but told her something that he still remembers:

"Everyone makes mistakes, so right and wrong cannot be held in the hands of one person; you have to learn to accept others, not just rely on a pair of fists to beat the world into what you want..."

Shangguan Yutang doesn't have any relatives in this world. Since childhood, she has developed the habit of only believing in herself. At that time, she really wanted to subdue everyone and listen to her, and then the world will change for the better.

After listening to Mei Jinshui's words, Shangguan Yutang suddenly realized that she was wrong. She is only a person, and she may make mistakes because of her emotions. She should not judge all good and evil by her preferences.

If you want the world to truly improve and the mortals at the bottom no longer die like a mustard, the correct way should be to establish a rule that overrides everyone, and even she is under control, so as to completely ensure that the mortals at the bottom can live like personal.

This rule was later known as the 'Nine Sects Covenant'.

Of course, at that time, Shangguan Yutang only had a rough idea. He was just a loose cultivator who occupied the top of the mountain and took in a few younger brothers. It was not easy to practice his own ideas.

Mei Jinshui admired her very much, and after leaving, she said something to the outside, which meant "this person is covered by me, Mei Jinshui. If you want to move her, first measure your own way."

After these words came out, Shangguan Yutang was completely accepted by the monks in the south, and he could open a sect and participate in the activities of the major immortals in a serious manner, and was no longer regarded as an outsider.

Although Shangguan Yutang can do this with his own strength, Mei Jinshui's appreciation has indeed saved a lot of unnecessary trouble.

In order to thank Mei Jinshui, Shangguan Yutang came to Meishan outside Xiangyang City to pay a visit.

It was also at that time that Shangguan Yutang met the person she felt 'the most untidy' in her life.

In the eyes of outsiders, Shangguan Yutang is ruthless, has no friends, and has no emotions. He abides by the right way and kills everyone without discrimination; but careful people will find that Shangguan Yutang calls everyone by his first name when he encounters them, and only gives it to two people. nickname.

One is Tang Jingxing, Shangguan Yutang was too worn out, and after a long time in love, he slowly returned to scold the other party as a 'dead mother-in-law'.

Before Tang Jingxuan, Shangguan Yutang would only use the down-to-earth title of 'old witch' when referring to a person.

'Old witch' is not a good nickname, but the different names represent the position of the other party in the heart, which is different from everyone else.

This name originated from Shangguan Yutang's first visit to Meishan.

Mei Jinshui has a great reputation and never shows up easily. Cultivators who want to be enlightened by experts or want to be famous will write poems about Mei outside Meishan. If they write well, Mei Jinshui may come out.

Shangguan Yutang went to Sunlight to practice martial arts. He even taught himself how to read and write. When he came to Meishan, he wanted to let the disciples outside the mountain inform him.

As a result, Mei Jinshui didn't come out. What came out was a little fairy carrying a peach blossom branch. her eyes.

Shangguan Yutang didn't know the specific situation, so he came to visit the masters, and naturally followed the local customs, called 'Senior Cui', and followed Cui Yingying inside.

Cui Yingying took her around Meishan for a long time, talking in an old-fashioned way, and she was a bit of an expert. Finally, she brought her to this stone monument and asked her to write something, saying that the rules cannot be broken. .

Shangguan Yutang knew that Meishan had this rule, so he thought about it for a moment and wrote a few words casually.

Unexpectedly, an unknown formation was arranged near the stone monument in advance. She turned around after writing, and Cui Yingying had disappeared. The scenery between the mountains and the fields changed, trapping her in the mountains, and she could hear the voices outside:

"Little friend Shangguan, everyone says you're amazing outside, I think you're just wary; if you can't get out, just say hello, and my sister will let you out..."

Shangguan Yutang had a very good impression of Mei Jinshui. He didn't take precautions after entering the mountain gate. He was naturally dissatisfied when he was overcast. After breaking the formation, it was a meal to catch Cui Yingying.

Afterwards, Shangguan Yutang learned that Cui Yingying trapped her because Mei Jinshui appreciated her very much. She often said in front of Cui Yingying how powerful she was.

But Mei Jinshui didn't want Cui Yingying, who was still young, to come into contact with the disputes in the Immortal Sect. She only taught her medical formations. pause.

Cui Yingying grew up being held by Mei Jinshui in the palm of her hand. It was the first time in her life that she was beaten, and the feeling can be imagined.

Since then, Cui Yingying has been in a relationship with her. She will come to trouble her if she has something to do. If she can't fight, she will start from other places. .

Shangguan Yutang has been wandering outside since she was a child, and being beautiful is not a good thing for her. She has always dressed up as a man, and has a tough and decisive personality.

During the time I stayed in Meishan, I was ridiculed by Cui Yingying every day, and I couldn't beat Cui Yingying anymore. Shangguan Yutang was very annoying, and gradually he would say something like 'crazy' and 'embroidered pillow', and finally he dressed up and gestured. 'I'm taller than you, my legs are longer than you, my chest is bigger than you, what are you squeamish about? ’.

After a long time, the two became acquainted naturally.

Although they don't like each other, I have to say that during this time, Shangguan Yutang had few memories of 'fighting with friends'.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

Shangguan Yutang is not ruthless, but because of the circumstances since childhood, she did not have the opportunity to contact him.

If you can, who doesn't want to have parents who love them, teachers and teachers who care about them, brothers and sisters who are fighting, and the other half who are tender and sweet.

It is precisely because there is none that Shangguan Yutang cherishes every emotion.

But Shangguan Yutang's ambitions since childhood were there. She successfully sat in the position of 'God', so she must hide these emotions and hide them in a position that no one knows about.

How could Shangguan Yutang have no feelings for Mei Jinshui, that was the first elder she met, the first elder who could be completely trusted and treated her as her own.

Today, Mei Jinshui left, Shangguan Yutang was not able to kill this old friend, so why was he secretly relieved.

But this blessing cannot be known by outsiders. Her current position is destined for her to meet Mei Jinshui 10,000 times again, and she will kill 10,000 times without frowning once.

How can I feel guilty? If she doesn't do this kind of thing, who else can do it?

Under the twilight rain, Shangguan Yutang looked at the terrace halfway up the mountain in the distance, knowing that Cui Yingying was still angry, waiting there to settle accounts with her.

But Shangguan Yutang never went to apologize, or coaxed Cui Yingying to give her a step up.

Because one day, Shangguan Yutang will kill Mei Jinshui, or die under Mei Jinshui's sailor.

They are different from each other, and this kind of thing cannot be avoided. Once it is done, Cui Yingying and Cui Yingying will be ruthless.

Since it will be a stranger in the end, the deeper the relationship at this time, the more painful it will be in the future; just like this, they don't like each other, and the relationship is not far or near, isn't it better?

When the day comes when they become strangers, Cui Yingying will probably feel less tangled...

Standing in the rain, Shangguan Yutang raised his hand and touched the old stone tablet. After a moment of silence, he bowed his hands to the place where Mei Jinshui once lived.

After the ceremony, Shangguan Yutang turned around and walked into the night, just like in the past thousand years, the wind and the rain, forever alone...

-----

rustling —

The fine raindrops sprinkled on the cornices outside the terrace, forming a rain curtain, blocking the mountains and rivers outside, only Xiangyang City outside the mountains could be seen, shining a little light.

Zuo Lingquan stood on the edge of the terrace, and his standing position has changed a lot. At this time, he gently rubbed his fingers and looked at Venerable Peach Blossom behind him.

The dark red piano table is placed in the middle of the terrace, and there is a brown carpet below.

Venerable Peach Blossom, dressed in a spring shirt, no longer maintains the posture of asking for guilt. He leaned his left hand on his face, leaned on the piano platform, and spun the glass wine glass with his fingertips. Even more so when it first came.

Half a day is more than enough for Shangguan ancestors to go back and forth to Huajunzhou.

Since they haven't come over yet, it can only show one problem - the ancestors didn't care about them at all!

Zuo Lingquan knew that in one practice, he had to rely on himself for everything, and he didn't want to bother the ancestors of Shangguan.

But this is the ancestor's business, and it has nothing to do with him. What can he do here?

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the whole world was quiet, and there was a chill behind him from time to time. Zuo Lingquan felt more and more embarrassed. After being silent for a long time, he turned around and tried his best to be calm and authentic:

"Hehe... um... I don't have a deep relationship with the ancestors of Shangguan, just knowing each other, it's not important enough to let the ancestors of Shangguan come over in person to ask for someone..."

"She thinks that the deity does not dare to deal ruthlessly with you!"

"No, no, how could it be... eh?!"

Zuo Lingquan secretly thought that something was wrong, and just as he was about to ease the atmosphere, he rushed forward, came to the piano stage, and put his hand on the stage.

Although Venerable Peach Blossom's face was expressionless, her eyes were filled with anger. She held Zuo Lingquan's wrist, took out a beautifully crafted tea knife from her sleeve, and chopped Zuo Lingquan's fingers with her backhand.

This time it was quick and ruthless, and it seemed to be angry.

Zuo Lingquan's face changed suddenly, and his heart directly mentioned his throat:

"Peach…"

chap—

The hand raised the knife and fell, and the sound of piercing the piano platform came.

Zuo Lingquan broke out in a cold sweat, but felt no pain. Looking down, he saw the sharp tea knife deflected when it fell, rubbing the gap between his fingers.

Scared me…

Zuo Lingquan breathed a sigh of relief, and before he could speak, he found that Venerable Peach Blossom was even more angry, and raised his tea knife again:

"This stinky mother-in-law, do you really think I dare not?"

Saying that, he slashed again, this time it seemed to be real.

!

Zuo Lingquan raised his throat again.

chap—

The knife fell from his hand, and the same as last time, it still stabbed in the wrong direction.

"Okay, you have eaten the deity thoroughly, haven't you? You forced me!"

Venerable Peach Blossom was furious, and once again raised his sword and dropped it.

? ?

No matter how big Zuo Lingquan's heart is, how can he resist this kind of intimidation!

He waited for the tea knife to fail again, and hurriedly said:

"Stop, stop! Senior Peach Blossom, you want to settle accounts with the ancestors. Tell her, why have you been scaring me?"

Venerable Peach Blossom was for the ancestors of Shangguan, so she didn't believe that Shangguan Yutang would not care about Zuo Lingquan, and said angrily:

"She's sure that the deity won't touch you, right? Don't blame the deity, blame her!"

Saying that, he picked up the knife and dropped it again.

Zuo Lingquan took a deep breath, but after the knife, his hand was still fine.

It is said that Ni Bodhisattva also has a three-point fire. Zuo Lingquan was frightened by tossing and turning, and he was also annoyed, so he stopped drawing his hands:

"Chop it, chop it, you might as well just chop my finger off. If it goes on like this, no one will have trouble with my hand."

Venerable Peach Blossom couldn't really use a knife on Zuo Lingquan. After going back and forth a few times, she saw that Shangguan Yutang had not been cheated out, but Zuo Lingquan's face turned pale with fright. The last shot made a crisp sound of 'pop':

"Have you seen it? She doesn't even care about your life or death, and you still treat her as an elder? If the deity hadn't chopped you off for the sake of having some friendship with you, she wouldn't care about you at all..."

Zuo Lingquan knew that she had been in a one-man show for a long time, and he was very angry, but what could he do?

Zuo Lingquan's left hand was still pressed on the table, and he understood that he couldn't reason with the angry woman, so he could only slightly spread his right hand:

"Senior is right, the ancestors of Shangguan don't care about me at all, it doesn't make sense for you to detain me here..."

"It's impossible for her to ignore you, she just knows that I won't do anything to you!"

"…"

What can Zuo Lingquan say? I can't always say that you really chop me up and try.

Venerable Taohua's anger was hard to dissipate, but Shangguan's ancestor ignored her, she really had nothing to do, she couldn't keep taking Zuo Lingquan to vent her anger.

The two sat on opposite sides of the piano platform, silent for a moment, then Venerable Master Taohua slowly suppressed his anger and let go of Zuo Lingquan's wrist:

"This is a matter of this deity and her. I don't care about you, but don't let this deity suffer. In today's situation, if this deity gives you peaches again, what kind of person will this deity be?"

Zuo Lingquan hurriedly retracted his hand:

"Junior understands that if the senior feels that it is not good to give it, then put it with the senior first, and then give it to me when the opportunity is suitable later, I am not in a hurry."

The more you think about it, the more you get angry—this is not a question of urgency, but a question of Shangguan Yutang being too bullying. Shangguan Yutang is not convinced, how could she give things to Zuo Lingquan?

After a moment of deliberation, Venerable Peach Blossom shook his head, took out the big green peach, and placed it on the table:

"Since Shangguan Yutang doesn't come today, she will definitely not bow her head to the deity in the future. If she doesn't bow her head, the deity can't be stuck with your chance all the time. That would be the deity's fault; Taozi can be given to you now, but you have to promise the deity a condition. ."

Zuo Lingquan was so contrived that he just wanted to go home early, but the great opportunity given by Qinglong couldn't be ignored. He sat upright and said seriously:

"Senior, please tell me, even if it's pulling a side frame..."

"She doesn't even come, why are you arguing? It's beautiful to think about."

"…"

Zuo Lingquan's mind was seen through and he had nothing to say.

Venerable Master Taohua looked at Xiantao on the piano platform and said solemnly:

"You remember, although this fairy peach was bestowed by the Lord Mengzhang, it grows on the tree of the deity. It was given to you by the deity. It has nothing to do with Shangguan Yutang.

"That's natural, the senior is willing to give up his love, and this love is naturally recorded on the senior."

"Just memorizing is useless. I can't give things to people in Shangguan Yutang. You must promise that in the future, you will treat the deity and Shangguan Yutang the same. No matter how high your morality is, you can't be ungrateful.

Zuo Lingquan heard Venerable Peach Blossom mention this, he wondered:

"It's not that the younger generation doesn't want to agree, but the relationship between people..."

"The deity doesn't care, you can figure it out yourself."

"It's not that I shirk it, it's just because I treat each other with sincerity, it's not easy to agree. For example, Ling Ye and I are lovers. Even if the ancestor is half a mother-in-law, no matter how I treat each other equally, I will definitely rely on the ancestor. …”

Venerable Peach Blossom blinked, pondered, shook his head and said:

"I don't care about anyone else, just me and her. For example, if I fell into the water with her, you can either save both or neither. You can save me or not her, but you can't treat me as an outsider. , save her or not me, understand?"

?

Zuo Lingquan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Why are you so stupid? It's just to keep you neutral and treat me and her as elders. I'll help you find the fairy sword and give you the fairy peach. I didn't ask you for anything. Isn't this a fake?"

"No, senior is really kind to me."

"That's right. You are not from her Shangguan Yutang, you are Zuo Lingquan, you have an incense relationship with the deity, and she also has an incense relationship; when faced with a decision in the future, no one can treat you badly, and you can't feel that you are her person. , so you can lean towards her with peace of mind."

"It's natural..."

"You can't promise it with your mouth, you have to think so sincerely, otherwise I always think that you are her person, and come to ask me for peaches, the more I think about it, the more I lose."

Zuo Lingquan didn't mean to prostitute the Peach Blossom Lord for nothing. He came to the Peach Blossom Lake and benefited so much. Remembering the favor of the Peach Blossom Lord is the right thing to do. He nodded and said:

"I, Zuo Lingquan, swear by the heart of the sword. Senior Peach Blossom gave Xiantao to guide him to find the grace of the sword. The younger generation will keep it in his heart. If he is ungrateful in the future, he will definitely be entangled in the road and cut off, and it will be difficult for him to get close again in his life."

As a practitioner, oaths are related to the heart of Tao, and no one dares to swear indiscriminately, but Zuo Lingquan is not an ungrateful person, so he naturally speaks frankly.

Venerable Master Taohua had a general understanding of Zuo Lingquan's character, and when he heard him make such a heavy oath, he felt that he was a little embarrassed, and his face softened:

"You don't need to swear, I'm just reminding you. But since I said it, I'll add, 'You must treat me and Shangguan Yutang equally, not favor one over the other; whatever relationship you have with her, you have to have something to do with me'."

Zuo Lingquan's eyes are a little weird:

"Senior is sure? This is not a child's play. If the ancestors of Shangguan and I become brothers of the opposite sex, and the senior is not happy, then I will not break my oath..."

"I don't like it, so it has nothing to do with you. What oath did you break? Besides, she can swoop in Shangguan Yutang, but why can't the deity? If you don't say sworn sworn, even if she recognizes you as a foster father, the deity dares to follow her. What Shangguan Yutang dares to do, why can't the deity do it?"

"…"

Zuo Lingquan still felt that something was not right. UU read www.uukanshu.com but the Master Taohua had already said this, so he didn't say any more, and continued:

"In the future, whatever relationship I have with the ancestors of Shangguan will be the relationship with my predecessors, and I will never favor one over the other."

Venerable Peach Blossom nodded slightly, and there was no point in tossing it any further. She pushed the peach on the table in front of Zuo Lingquan:

"Okay, take it. Shangguan Yutang doesn't come. The deity's skills are no worse than hers. Just this opportunity to help you refine your life."

Refining and refining one's life requires surviving the thunder tribulation. It is a great favor to help protect the Dao, Zuo Lingquan said with a smile:

"Senior is so kind, I can't repay it, I'm really ashamed..."

"It's good to be ashamed, I won't let you pay back your favor, just remember to remember. If you encounter something in your travels in the future, remember to contact the deity. If you have nothing to do, just call Shangguan Yutang. You see today, she doesn't care whether you live or die..."
