I am pretending to be a villain in the world of cultivating immortals
Chapter 23 [Subline 1] Chivalry and Kindness
Walking out of the light group, Liang Chi looked at the way he had come from a little lonely.
He found that the thatched hut, which was the starting point of his memories, shrunk into a small black spot in his sight, which seemed so far away.
Life is just a few decades, counting from the beginning, it is just a few nodes that are deeply remembered.
If you choose the right one, the joy may not last long, but if you choose the wrong one, the regret will last so long.
And the saddest thing is that few people in this world can have the luck of starting over.
The bystanders sighed, but the person in the story showed a very happy expression on the face.
An Ren's soul has been waiting outside the light group, hoping that Liang Chu can bring him good news.
Time passed by, even though he had made countless assumptions in his mind, when the door of the fifth floor opened, he was still so excited that he couldn't believe it.
Liang Ce noticed the open door, he took a deep breath, and tried to contact Yu Huaiyin with the two friends, but he couldn't get any response after prodding for a long time.
Vaguely, he could feel that there must be some unknown and terrifying existence hidden in this tower.
It seemed that from the moment he noticed the chill spreading around him, the thing that made him feel uncomfortable was staring at him.
Calm down, Liang Chi tried to wake up An Ren who was still in shock, "Doctor An?"
"Oh--"
An Ren suddenly came back to his senses, and only then remembered what he had promised Liang Chi before, "I wonder if the young master found out my identity before, did he want to ask me why I lived in Anshun's lantern?"
When Liang Chi heard him talk about something serious, he cupped his hands, "Please tell Dr. An."
An Ren recalled for a moment, what the young man with the orchid lantern said roughly repeated: "I remember that man said after giving the lantern to me and Anshun..."
"The Yin Yang Pagoda has seven floors, and each floor has a different meaning."
In my mind, the scene of that day involuntarily emerged.
An Ren remembered that the young man was wearing a wide black cloak, with a pitch-black sword on his back.
He couldn't see the face hidden under the black robe, he could only hear the young man's words lingering in his ears, lingering in his ears, which is still fresh in his memory to this day.
"The first floor is called the Lantern. There are two defenders, one Yin and one Yang, guarding the formation. They will select souls with strong obsessions and go to the tower to break the formation."
As the young man spoke, he waved his wide sleeves, and two paper figurines, one old and one young, stood in front of a huge screen, holding golden scissors, waiting for the lonely soul coming from afar.
"The second floor is called Wenxin. If you want to get out of this tower, you need to understand what you think in your heart, so that you can condense the path under your feet."
In the darkness, the young man stood in front of a desk, torturing passers-by who were obsessed with each other.
"The third layer is called Guidance. The souls who came to break the formation must retrace the path of the past and find their past memories."
The young man watched his soul climb the steps on the fourth floor, recalling all the things in his life.
"The fourth layer is called reappearance. Everything you have experienced in this life is in front of you. Whether you choose to leave or sink."
The young man saw those dead souls who came to break the formation, howling in pain, but he turned a deaf ear to them.
"The fifth layer is called choice. If you were given another chance, what would you choose to change, and whether your choice follows your inner answer."
The young man sighed, he saw the soul of the dead in a fantasy, trying to change the ending over and over again, but failed every time.
In the face of great joy and pain, they have long forgotten what they said and vowed on the second floor.
It can only collapse and go crazy in the constant selection.
"The sixth layer is called wish fulfillment. When the obsession is broken, those who break the formation can break the shackles of heaven and earth and find their own way."
The orchid lantern in the young man's hand was shining brightly. It was the souls of the dead who had opened the door to life. Their faces were full of joy, and they were no longer in pain.
An Ren told Liang Chu the information about the Yin Yang Pagoda verbatim.
Suddenly, many pictures appeared in front of Liang Ce.
It felt like the black-robed young man demonstrated the operation process of the entire formation for him through An Ren's mouth.
Go through the information you get quickly in your head.
Liang Chi realized that Anren's words had missed a very important link, and hurriedly asked: "What about the last floor, didn't you say that this tower has seven floors? Did that person say anything about the seventh floor?" ?”
An Ren frowned, and seemed to have noticed this problem.
He recalled it carefully, and shook his head after making sure that he was absolutely correct in his memory, "No, he only said that this tower is called Yin Yang, and the rules in it are like the shackles that heaven and earth place on the world, and they want to break it." The shackles will go against the sky."
At the end, An Ren sighed, "Maybe the seventh floor is the price of going against the sky."
A word awakened the dreamer, Liang Chi heard this word, only felt the blood in his chest was hot.
He wants to break the formation in the tower, go to the upper realm to practice immortality, and let all beings in the three realms know his name.
Which one of the things he wants to do is against the sky!
"I understand." Liang Chu weighed the pros and cons, knowing that what was before him was a road of no return.
He saw the expectation in An Ren's eyes, and said solemnly: "Liang Ce is willing to give it a try."
An Ren was taken aback, he didn't expect him to agree so happily, what he just said clearly explained the danger of breaking into the tower one by one.
But the young man in front of him, who is not related to him, is still willing to take the risk.
Thinking of how biased his previous estimate of Liang Chu was, An Ren couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and bowed to pay respects, "The old man thanked you for your kindness in rebuilding!"
Liang Ce didn't dare to accept this great gift, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Doctor An doesn't need to do this, I chose to break the formation mostly for myself."
He paused, and said again: "You should tell me about the lantern first."
With the hope of reincarnation burning in his heart, An Ren excitedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Young master, after passing through the four floors of the tower, you must have understood what I just said. It takes deep perseverance to climb this tower. But you just saw it in your memory. Although my little apprentice did something stupid , but mostly for me and his late mother.”
Speaking of this, An Ren smiled helplessly, "So after he fell off the cliff, the obsession he formed was not deep, and he should have dissipated into nothingness like the other souls in Qixing Town. I insisted on keeping him in the world, so I did it." the wick in his lantern."
Liang Chi was shocked, because when he was deeply involved in the past, he also felt the resentment and unwillingness in An Ren's heart.
The pain was almost the same as when he was exterminated and his soul was taken away.
But even though he hated it, An Ren still chose to protect that child with all his might, both in life and after death.
He lamented Anren's righteousness, and understood why the memories behind him are so complete, because they don't belong to just one person, but a lifelong bond between a master and an apprentice.
"So I will make a choice for you and Anshun on the fifth floor." Liang Ce asked, ready to go to the next floor.
"Young master is right, but it's a pity that according to the rules in this tower, the road ahead has been passed, and the past has been seen. This lantern does not have my name on it, so I cannot accompany you to the next floor. Besides, even if there is, I will definitely be punished." Influenced by the resentment in the pagoda, I was immersed in the past and lost my sanity. In this way, my master and apprentice have worked hard, sir."
An Ren bowed to the end with the unfinished bow.
Liang Book didn't stop him any more, he saw the old man's soul turned into a stream of light and returned to the lantern.
The flame danced, illuminating more roads around.
Liang Ce gripped the lantern pole tightly and stepped up the stairs leading to the fifth floor.
On the other side, Yu Huaiyin chased the half piece of paper money that was blowing with the wind all the way back to Qixing Town.
Walking on the empty street, he looked around, the city in front of him was completely different from what he had seen before, full of desolation and death everywhere.
Coffins and straw mats are parked in front of almost every household.
And the half piece of paper money has not stopped yet, like a butterfly with broken wings, guiding Yu Huaiyin to move on.
"Anshun, come back!"
An urgent cry suddenly sounded from the bottom of my heart, and it turned out that the two acquaintances who had been disconnected for a long time had regained contact.
When Yu Huaiyin heard the shout, he could feel the tension of Liang Ce, but he couldn't know the situation in the tower.
But at the moment when the sound of the good book sounded, the half piece of paper money that had been wandering for a long time finally stopped and fell down...
At this moment, on the fifth floor of the Yin Yang Pagoda, there are countless memory light beads floating.
One by one, exuding extremely dazzling light, like a brilliant galaxy, lingering in the good books.
A large number of memories flooded into his mind, flashing like a revolving lantern. He saw that there were regrets and sweetness everywhere in his life.
"Where are you from?"
"..."
"What else do you want to take away?"
The questioning of the man in black still rings in his ears.
"I would like to leave behind the grudges of the past."
"Take away my heart."
This is his answer, so what is the original heart of Anren's master and apprentice?
In an instant, Liang Ce saw the brightest one among thousands of stars.
On the top of the mountain, a small figure was reaching out to pick the flower that bloomed in the heavy snow.
"Anshun, come back!" Liang Chi shouted, he rushed forward, and caught the child who was about to fall off the cliff before Anshun stepped on the air.
"Great, you're not dead, there's still a chance for everything." He happily rubbed the top of Anshun's head, only to find that the boy with empty eyes was staring blankly at the bottom of the cliff.
"You're wrong... you're wrong..."
Anshun repeated this sentence meaninglessly.
"what?"
Liang Chi heard his murmur clearly, and asked a little puzzled.
Then, as if he realized something, he also turned his head to look deep into the cliff.
A familiar figure is falling rapidly!
"How could this be?"
Liang Ce turns around in panic, trying to make sure that the person standing in front of him is Anshun.
But there was nothing in front of him, and he lowered his head in disbelief, only to see that what was tightly held in his right hand was not a person's clothes, but a bell tied with a red string.
The snow under his feet suddenly collapsed and turned into a bloody mouth, swallowing him.
"what--"
Liang Chi let out a loud cry, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave, where there was darkness, and the cold was eroding his remaining consciousness little by little.
"Good book?"
Someone whispered his name in his ear, and it was the young man in the snow-white ginkgo suit who stretched out his hand to him.
"Ayin."
Liang Book opened his eyes, he held the young man's hand, but he forgot that the person in front of him had already died under his knife, and he said in a dazed way: "I just had a nightmare, dreaming that I fell from the cliff Falling up and down, the bottom of the cliff is very cold, I can't move at all, but it's so strange, as soon as you call me, I wake up."
He found that the thatched hut, which was the starting point of his memories, shrunk into a small black spot in his sight, which seemed so far away.
Life is just a few decades, counting from the beginning, it is just a few nodes that are deeply remembered.
If you choose the right one, the joy may not last long, but if you choose the wrong one, the regret will last so long.
