After being forced to practice the path of ruthlessness

In the Yihe courtyard.

Yan Qi and Lian Zhaoqing were together, looking at a lamp in front of them.It is not big, it can be held up with one hand, the color is old, and some red spots on it look like plum blossoms that have been specially dyed.It looks unremarkable, no different from the gauze lanterns used at home, but it is the Jiepo lantern.

Rumored.

Rumors are rumors after all.

They all fart a lot.

If the rumors are true, the old friends of Baiwanlou can line up in a long line, and Lian Zhaoqing is one of the guests entering the curtain, and the younger brother will not get mad and lock people up in one way or another.

When Yan Qichu came back down the mountain and heard this rumor, he stayed in the tea pavilion for half a day with rare interest, drank three pots of tea, and settled a tael of silver.Then he asked the waiter who was spitting all over the place: "The Wuqing sect doesn't just have Lian Zhaoqing and Bai Wanlou, why don't you listen to other things?"

The waiter in the shop was just happy to get the silver taels, so he worked harder to brag to this customer who looked stupid and had a lot of money. "Of course there are others. I can tell you whichever you want to hear, guest officer. It's just because everyone wants to hear about Lian Damei recently, so they ask more."

inquire about--

Yan Qi said: "Could it be true for you?"

"Of course it's true. I didn't say that, have you ever seen people from the Wuqing Sect? Oh, they are all elegant and elegant, and they look like immortals. I once saw the Gentleman Yunding from a distance, tsk." Xiaoer He patted his thigh, "I will never forget it in this life."

Yan Qi smiled and said, "Do you know that he has two senior brothers?"

"I know, looking at Gao Qiang, who actually has some problems in his mind and likes to lock himself up." Xiaoer's mouth is as smooth as a melon seed skin, "There is also Master Yan, who is dedicated to courting the elder brother."

When it comes to the deep sadomasochistic relationship between I love you and you love him and he doesn't love you, Xiao Er's enthusiasm was mobilized again. "You don't know, it is said that Master Yan loves Sovereign Lian infatuatedly, but it's a pity that Sovereign Lian only has his junior brother alone. Master Yan is so depressed that he often wanders outside Lian Zhaoqing's door in his clothes alone in the middle of the night, talking to the moon. Tears, hey, it's really sad to say, and it's a pity to sigh! The word love is the most inextricable!"

Yan Qi wandering around in the middle of the night: "..."

He restrained himself and did not kill the waiter, but found a bunch of waiters and asked them to get together to gossip, and whoever said the most good words would be rewarded with one or two dollars.He also invited a storyteller to record the gossip in a book, and sent a letter to Lian Zhaoqing.

It is said that Lian took the opportunity to smash the door down that day.

Afterwards, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other for a long time.

The only one that is not affected is the Baiwan Building, where it is time to eat and sleep. If you are happy, you will demolish two buildings, and if you are unhappy, you will demolish three buildings.Free and easy is not at all like being locked up like this or that.

Therefore, gossip is a ghost if it is accurate.Just like this lamp, I am afraid that if it is thrown on the road, no one will be interested in picking it up and taking a look.Probably the Jiepo Lantern in their minds is like a golden light, which is not a vulgar thing at first sight.

Yan Qi said: "I thought it would be hard to see this lamp again."

The Qingluan knot lamp was originally kept in Cheng Yuanjun's mansion, but after Su Mu came to the Central Plains, he was at Cheng Yuanjun's house as if he was at his own home. .

The reason why Cheng Yuanjun never wanted to come back was because he had kept it in the warehouse since he got it.Because this thing is really shabby, it can neither be lit nor burned, and it can't be used for other purposes.

Since Su Mu's death, this lamp has been sealed in Yundingtai.The Wuqing Sect has two treasures, one is the Huangquan stick, which is on the top of Hanbao Pavilion, and the other is the Jiepo Lantern, which is at the Baiwan Tower of Yundingtai.When the sword intent suddenly disappeared that day, Yan Qi who was going back to Qingxi Peak turned back, wanting to find out, but it was Bai Wanlou who came out and handed the lamp to Yan Qi with his own hands.

It must be known that this lamp is almost Bai Wanlou's life, just as important as that rabbit.He handed the lamp to Yan Qi, and Yan Qi almost lost his eyes in shock.It took him a long time to find his voice: "This is not—"

Yan Qi always thought that the reason why Baiwanlou treasured this lamp was because it might belong to Su Mu.After all, whoever makes a move, Bai Wanlou will fight desperately.But Bai Wanlou said: "I don't need any more foreign things."

"They didn't always want to give it to you."

Yan Qi's eyes twitched: "Who wants it!"

Who wants it?

"Give it to whoever wants it." Bai Wanlou showed no nostalgia, threw the lamp into Yan Qi's arms and left.

Yan Qi was caught off guard: "Where are you going?"

"Chatty."

"..." Yan Qi said, "If people in the world know that the lamp they are asking for is just a piece of paper in the eyes of Bai Wanlou, I don't know how they will feel."

Lian Zhaoqing stretched out his hand to touch it: "I don't believe it's useful either."

"By the way, why are you looking for Jiang Yuan so late?"

"I want him to light this Jiepo lamp."

Yan Qi was a little surprised: "What did you say?"

Jiang Yuan was a little surprised: "What did you say?"

"I said—" Lian Zhaoqing took a breath, "How did you get in here!"

Jiang Yuan was standing at the door, looking dusty and exhausted, when he appeared, even Zhaoqing and Yan Qi didn't notice it at all!

When did Jiang Yuan come?

Soon, just enough for him to hear the last sentence.

But Jiang Yuan left Cheng Yuanjun and went all the way to Yue Renfeng. In the night, Yue Renfeng was like a sharp knife, straight into the sky.Steep and steep.The night wind blew the flesh and bones, making people's skin ache, but Jiang Yuan was at a loss in his heart.He came here out of arrogance, but he didn't know where he was going.

My hometown is far away, this is not my home.

The friend just broke up, and the sweetheart is still in the fog.

There is a Tao in the world, and there is an end to the Tao.The demon disguises his face, the demon deceives people's hearts, and the sword is too straightforward.And where did he come from, where is he going, why was he born, and what path should he belong to?

Jiang Yuan never thought about this matter, he always lived in a way before the car arrived at the boat, at this moment, his heart was anxious, Cheng Yuanjun stimulated, his thoughts went back and forth from dream to reality for a few times, he suddenly broke through the artistic conception, pondered Here comes the question.

This should have been a big problem.

If it is placed on Mei Ruyi or Huigen, it is worth them to sit down and enter the meditation. In the meditation, go to the three thousand worlds for a swim, explore the world of mortals, and jump out of reincarnation. Maybe they will gain something, and thus they will be closer to the great road.

But Jiang Yuan didn't realize that he was hovering on the edge of breaking the boundary. The ice in his dream was cold, but his heart was hot in reality.The person in the dream is a stranger, but he is never forgotten.People in reality face him day and night, but it makes him gradually forget what he should look like.

One inch less is not related to Dao, and one more inch is in the realm of magic. Jiang Yuan's current state of mind still needs to be right and right.But while his heart was burning hot, he couldn't control the mixed breath.

Jiang Yuan used to cultivate everything, even demons and demons, and he used whatever was useful.Because of his system with no taboos, he can learn everything quickly, and there is no conflict between exercises.Jiang Yuan has never been affected by demonic or demonic nature.

In the past half a year since he woke up, Xue Can said that he was not in good health, and because of Jiang Yuan's broken problem, he asked Jiang Yuan to wear a net and put Xue Can's Nether Butterfly on his body to help him heal his internal injuries.Although Jiang Yuan didn't feel that he had internal injuries, after all, Little Butterfly was his favorite, so it didn't hurt much.

Now that the snare has been untied and the little butterfly pinched, Jiang Yuan feels as if he has been liberated.His blood was rushing so violently that he had nowhere to use all his strength, but there was a stasis blocking it.It was like a rushing river was blocked by a big mountain, washing his tendons back and forth, making him unable to exert his strength, but helpless.

Just when the fierceness in his heart was gradually rising, Jiang Yuan plunged into the Yihe courtyard.An inexplicable fragrance from the room soothed his heart, and gradually calmed down his boiling heart lake.Once he calmed down, Jiang Yuan felt pain all over his body.

He glanced around casually to know where this place was.For a while, I wanted to sit outside Yunding Terrace.Even if you don't see anyone, it's good to see each other across the air.But when he thought that Baiwanlou might be in seclusion, his thoughts faded away.He broke in rashly last time, causing internal injuries to Bai Wanlou, and he really didn't want to repeat the same mistakes.

It's one thing to like it, but it's another thing to actually do it.Seeing that Lian Zhaoqing's room was brightly lit, Jiang Yuan counted the time and it happened to be Haishi, so he brushed off his clothes and wanted to open the door.

Before pushing the door, I heard Yan Qi's voice.

With two people in the middle of the night, it might not be good for him to rush in rashly.

Jiang Yuan thought for a while, and gently pushed the door a crack, but seeing the two men's clothes were neatly dressed, he heard the last sentence, 'I asked him to light this Jiepo lamp'.I don't know if it was because he was surprised by Jiepodeng Bendeng, or because Yu Lian Zhaoqing asked him to light the lamp, or because he felt that this kind of opportunity that could not be snatched was too easy to get.Surprised for a moment, he blurted out: "What did you say?"

Yan Qi glanced at Jiang Yuan strangely, thinking, why is he surprised, does he know the secret?

However, Jiang Yuan Wuguan Lian Zhaoqing frowned and stepped in.

"You want to give it to me?"

Lian Zhaoqing said: "It's strange for you?"

Jiang Yuan: "..."

Very strange!

This is something that other people can't even ask for, so you just give it to others at will, is it really good?Such a big treasure should be very expensive, the only one in the world!Ripples appeared in Jiang Yuan's heart, and his eyes fell on this lamp——

……

Jiang Yuan said: "Is this the Jiepo Lantern?"

Lian Zhaoqing: "Yes."

Jiang Yuan pondered for a while: "There is a kind of lamp in the Western Regions, which is made of wooden branches and covered with a layer of tulle. There are medicinal herbs inside. People like to light it in summer, and they will light many lamps, just like it."

Western Regions?Still a lot?

Lian Zhaoqing and Yan Qi secretly looked at each other.

This lamp was originally from the Western Regions, but few people know about it.People of Jiang Yuan's age would not know.Lian Zhaoqing suspected that Jiang Yuan had something else to say, so he took advantage of the topic and tried to say something else.With a calm expression on his face, he only said: "Oh? What is it used for, what kind of formation?"

Jiang Yuandao: "Anthelmintic."

"Expelling—" Lian Zhaoqing just wanted to agree with a sentence that was really unfathomable, then closed his eyes and swallowed the words abruptly.He really didn't want to see Jiang Yuan's face.

Sometimes it's really a pity that Lian Zhaoqing doesn't have the habit of judging who to hack, otherwise he really wants to split his head open to see what this person is thinking.

While speaking, Jiang Yuan was already very close to the lamp.The fragrance that made him inexplicably reassuring just now came from this lamp. Jiang Yuan picked it up uncontrollably, and felt comfortable all over his body, as if he had found a peaceful place.

"I heard that what the Jiepo lamp burns is the soul of the lamplighter. The person who seeks the most true and pure will burn a more pure flame. Wherever it shines, the wandering soul can follow the guidance of the Huangquan staff." , leading to rebirth. The soul that the person holding the lamp seeks will be guided by the light and return to this world."

Looking at this dilapidated lamp, Jiang Yuan felt an unusual sincerity.Probably in front of such ancient relics, even the impetuous heart can be soothed in this way.He said softly: "It's not lit at the moment, maybe I didn't ask for anything—"

Lian Zhaoqing said coolly, "That's because it doesn't have a wick."

Jiang Yuan: "..."

He said calmly: "I know."

Sure enough, he is a man of the Ruthless Sect.

You can even hate your own things.

It is customary to invite the Three Treasures to wash away the dust at the Three Flowers Festival, and then invite Buddhists and Taoists to transform the dusty heart for them.Even if the Ruthless Sect doesn't follow such secular rules, it still has to do it beautifully.And lighting the soul lamp, using it to guide the Huangquan stick, is a kind of moral, intended to lead the wandering souls who have no home in the world to enter reincarnation and return to their hometowns.

But Yan Qi was not surprised by this.

What surprised him was that Lian Zhaoqing knew that the current lamp could not be lit at all, so why did he ask Jiang Yuan to light it?

To light a lamp, a wick is necessary.

But the wick of this lamp has been gone for many years.

Everyone in the world knows that Qingluan's Soul Lantern, Wukong Huangquan Staff, and Huaijun Wangyou Pill are the incarnations of the three immortal elders of that day.With the Jiepo Lantern, one is not afraid of death.With the Yellow Spring Staff, you can go to rebirth.If you get Wangyou Pill, you can forget your past.But what the world doesn't know is that these three things are originally together.

And these things first came from Potian's hands.

After Potian traveled to the Western Regions, in addition to studying Taoism and Poyuan Formation, he also exhausted the rare and rare herbs in the Western Regions to refine a elixir.Then he took Jiao Mingkun's bones and made a lamp, put the elixir in it, and used it as a wick to light the Sanming Shenhuo.

Wangyou Pill was not originally called Wangyou Pill, it was just a medicine.It is said that if eaten raw, it can strengthen the bones and restore vitality.But if it is used as a wick, after it is ignited, the medicinal properties will be released, but it can guide the way to Huangquan, and it has become the "undead lamp" in the population of later generations.

Potian used it to light the Sanming Divine Fire, and if the divine fire was not extinguished, Yuanhao's body would not rot.He himself used the Huangquan stick to open the gate of ghosts.Breaking into the ghost gate with his own soul, trying to find Yuan Hao's soul.But no, he exhausted the heavens and the earth, but he couldn't find the Taoist companion he lost.

Overnight, Po Tian exhausted his essence and died with a sigh.But without his spiritual force, the Jiepo lamp went out very quickly.Yuan Hao and him turned into bones in an instant, and were no longer known to the world.It's a pity that the two of them were separated and resentful during life, and their bones were intertwined after death, but they seemed like a couple who had loved each other for many years.

And these three things have been handed down, and the more they are passed down, the more magical they become, and they have become the immortal magic weapon among the people.In fact, it can be regarded as a treasure of algorithms, but it is not as magical as the creation of the world.

Lian Zhaoqing and Yan Qi knew this, but it was because the master taught them well.Because their master used to light this lamp and use it as a tranquilizing lamp.To be honest, although Lian Zhaoqing used to despise this kind of practice, after enjoying the scent of the medicine several times to lull him to sleep, he still despises it with his mouth, and enjoys it honestly a few times.

Good medicine is good medicine after all.

At the beginning of Lian Zhaoqing, he still knew how to cherish it: "This medicine is life-saving. This lamp is rumored to be able to save lives. You light it every day to sleep peacefully. Wouldn't it be too wasteful?"

Su Mu pointed to a bird outside: "What is this?"

Lian Zhaoqing said: "Bird."

Su Mu pointed to Bai Wanlou who was concentrating on sword practice and asked, "What is this?"

Lian Zhaoqing said: "... Junior Brother."

Su Mu said with satisfaction: "That's right. Both the bird and your junior brother can fly and are both beautiful. Just like this wick, whether the wick is good or not, you can light it. As for the effect, whether it is used to waste things - it depends on whether it works or not." .Clean water, or dirty water, can save a person who is dying of thirst. It is good water. Big tonic pills and small tonic pills, if you eat them, if they don’t work, they are nothing. I’ll give them to you now Sleep better, has it realized its value?"

He covered his face with the scroll in surprise: "You don't want to let it lie in the ground for hundreds of years, and even the veil covered with moisture won't see the light of day, right?"

……

Those of the Ruthless Sect who were taught in this way are typical pragmatists.No matter how gaudy the outside is, a sword that can kill people is a good sword technique, and a sword that doesn't injure a hole after a beautiful turn for a long time is useless.As for people, those who treat them well are good people, and those who treat them badly are bad people.As for how to treat others, it's none of their business.

Lian Zhaoqing said: "Go and tell him that the lamp is not working, and ask him where the wick is."

Jiang Yuan doesn't move, which is actually a bit troublesome.This light quickly lowered his expectations for the secret treasure of the Heartless Sect.He lost interest: "From this point of view, the so-called Huangquan stick is probably just a worn-out stick."

Lian Zhaoqing thought for a while: "When I said him, I meant Wanlou—"

Jiang Yuan: "Simple and unpretentious is the most precious thing."

Immediately turn around and leave.

Lian Zhaoqing: "..."

After Jiang Yuan left, Yan Qifang said affectionately to Lian Zhao: "Wangyou Pill has been lost for many years, and you also know that what you are talking about now is just to fool them. How could there be a Baiwan Building? You take a lamp without a wick, What's the use of ordering?"

Lian Zhaoqing said: "That's why I let Jiang Yuan order."

Anyway Kang Won was able to fool them with a chicken and drank from his wine glass.It's not surprising that a lamp can't be lit, and it doesn't lose Lian Zhaoqing's face.The monk didn't know if it could be ordered.At that time, let me say, oh, it has been damp for a long time, they know what a fart.Lian Zhaoqing seriously suspected that the medicine had been ordered long ago.

Moreover.

The key is to look at the person who lights the lamp.

It was ordered by Su Mu in the past.

now--

"I'm just borrowing flowers to present to the Buddha. Baiwanlou has cherished it for so many years, why is it willing to give it to you now? He doesn't need it. Could it be this lamp?" I'm afraid it was only one person who threw it down together.Lian Zhao said affectionately, "How many people he treats without false words, but he only loves your disciples. Don't tell me you can't see it."

"..." Yan Qi said, "I understand what you mean."

But he sighed.

"They don't look alike either."

And Jiang Yuan, who was outside, had just walked for a short distance, and suddenly remembered that he came here not only for this matter, but also for a doubt that he didn't ask Lian Zhaoqing.Thinking of this, he turned back again.

The author has something to say: Xiaojiang: Crooked, what are you doing in vain?

Xiaobai who is in a battle with someone: I am talking about the past with someone you are particularly close to.

Xiaojiang: ... I suddenly have a headache, but I'm not here.

Send a song "Gossip Reappearance": a corner of the wall is in front of you, and a sentence of gossip crosses the sky.Whose grassland blooms late in the building.
