Broken mirror to practice Taoism

Chapter 7

"Feel sorry."

The two looked at each other for a long time, but Xue Yuandao took the lead to look away.It wasn't until Xue Yuandao turned around that Ergou exhaled slowly.He didn't know why, every time Xue Yuandao looked at him like this, he felt uncomfortable.

It seemed to be tightly trapped by a rope, and I couldn't break free no matter how hard I tried.

"Master, why do you always look at me like this?" Ergou asked Xue Yuandao after hesitating for a moment.

"Huh?" Xue Yuandao turned his head slightly, but avoided Ergou's gaze, "You always remind Master of someone."

"Who?" Ergou followed Xue Yuandao with a smile, "Master, did you accept me as a disciple because I resembled that person?"

"No." Xue Yuandao answered briefly.

Er Gou was a little surprised by Xue Yuandao's answer, Xue Yuandao didn't like to lie, since Xue Yuandao said no, then it wasn't.But since it wasn't, why did Xue Yuandao always look at him like this?

"And you are not like him." Xue Yuandao continued.

"Is that so..."

After Ergou heard it, he was a little puzzled. He always felt that there were too many stories about Xue Yuandao, and it would probably take a year or so to finish listening.Er Gou, who didn't care much about the surrounding things, would not ask Xue Yuandao about his past at this moment.

The two masters and apprentices walked all the way. Although Ergou didn't care much about anything, he had a characteristic of being talkative.There were not many strange things along the way, but Ergou talked a lot.Xue Yuandao, the master, can be regarded as conscientious and conscientious. Although he doesn't like to talk very much, he will always respond to Ergou's nonsense.

Until Er Gou talked a little dry, Xue Yuandao in front finally stopped.

What appeared in front of them was a huge vortex, but it was not a vortex formed by river water.This vortex is in the middle of the road paved with jade, black and red are mixed.

"Master, what is this?"

Xue Yuandao was silent for a moment before slowly answering: "Qiangwei."

Ergou was stunned, he had lived for so many years, he really didn't know many things, but he was lucky enough to meet this Qiangwei once by chance.It's just that he didn't expect that this vortex had the same name as that flower, and more importantly, before Xue Yuandao opened his mouth, these two words also appeared in his mind.

"I don't have a name, so let's call it that." Xue Yuandao explained, "We're going to jump down."

"Okay." Ergou was about to jump down after hearing Xue Yuandao's words, but Xue Yuandao grabbed the lapel of his clothes.

"what are you doing!"

Xue Yuandao's voice trembled a little. This sentence was not a question but an exclamation.It was the first time Ergou saw Xue Yuandao so excited, he was a little taken aback.

"Master... didn't you let me jump off?"

"I mean we are going to jump down, not that you just jump down like this!" Xue Yuandao frowned for some reason.

During the short time with Xue Yuandao, Ergou saw Xue Yuandao like this for the first time.Are you afraid?What are you afraid of?

"Hey... I didn't expect that, master, don't be angry, calm down..." Er Gou scratched the back of his head regretfully, and said to Xue Yuandao, while stepping on the ground with both feet, he stood obediently behind Xue Yuandao.

Looking at Ergou's appearance, Xue Yuandao just sighed heavily, turned around and lowered his head slightly, and said, "Ergou..."

"Master, tell me."

"As a teacher, I hope you can change..."

Ergou looked puzzled, what should I change?

Xue Yuandao clenched his hands slightly, "There will be someone... who wants you to live."

"Master..." Ergou said earnestly, "I still cherish my life, don't worry, I still want to eat delicacies from all over the world. I heard that the peaches in the sky are delicious. When I complete my cultivation, I will try it too! "

"Really?" Xue Yuandao asked softly, which made Ergou a little confused who he was asking, "If you like it, I will take you all over the world as a teacher."

——If you like it, I will take you all over the world.

Ergou shook his head, then said with a smile: "Then I will follow in the footsteps of the master from now on, and I will go wherever the master goes!"

After hearing Ergou's words, Xue Yuandao smiled slightly.Ergou has seen Xue Yuandao laugh, but the object has never been him.

"You remember this sentence." Xue Yuandao said to Ergou with a hint of jokes in a rare good mood, and then stretched out his hand in front of Ergou, "Hurry up and be a teacher."

Ergou immediately grabbed Xue Yuandao's hand obediently with both hands, and Xue Yuandao simply hugged Ergou in his arms like when he entered the water, and then jumped off the edge of "Rose" with Ergou.

When he jumped down, Ergou could only feel the strong wind howling around him, Xue Yuandao protected him very well, he just heard the sound of the wind, but didn't feel it at all.But because the speed of the descent was getting faster and faster, Er Gou, who had not entered the concentration period, couldn't stop the speed, and finally couldn't hold on, and fainted directly.

When Ergou opened his eyes again, there was a flame jumping in front of him.

It was pitch black all around, and Xue Yuandao didn't know where he went.All he could see was the flame in front of him.

"Where am I..."

Ergou looked around, there was nothing here, only endless darkness.He took a step forward, and the flame behind him moved forward with him.

"Hey, can you still move by yourself?"

Ergou looked at the cluster of flames in front of him with some surprise, and he approached the flames, and the flames took a step towards him as if they understood his thoughts.Standing in front of the flames, Ergou didn't feel any burning sensation. He couldn't help but stretched out his right hand and touched the flames.

The moment his hand touched the flame, the flame suddenly jumped in all directions.The surrounding darkness was all lit up, and the place where Ergou was located was a grassland, and the breeze was blowing gently at this moment, which was very pleasant.

Where the hell is this...

"It's your state of mind."

There was a voice coming from the depths of his mind, Ergou stayed for a moment, and then said in his heart: "Who are you?"

"I am the master here."

"Where is this place?"

"It's the state of mind."

"My state of mind? What is that?"

"Simply put, it is the world in your heart."

Hearing the voice in his head say this, Ergou couldn't help but started to walk in the grassland.In this grassland, there is nothing, but it is a place where there is nothing, so that Ergou can really feel comfortable.He doesn't like too much noise, and occasionally he has to ignore messy things selectively.

"It's awesome here."

"Do you like it?"

"I like it very much. It would be even better if there is something to eat."

"Why not?"

The voice said so, and then Ergou saw a table of good dishes appearing in front of him.Er Gou immediately sat down in front of a table of dishes. The grass was soft and comfortable, no worse than Ling Yueshan's chairs at all.

"Do you want to stay?"

Ergou was eating happily, when a voice in his head suddenly asked.

"No more."

"Why?" The voice in my head was anxious, "This place is so good, why don't you stay here."

Ergou thought for a while and replied, "You will get tired of staying here for a long time."

"I'll conjure up whatever you like. You won't get bored. You can stay with me, okay?"

"I don't even know what I like..."

"Then what are you going out for? You can't find anything you like when you go out, so why not stay with me."

"But I'm not related to you, why should I accompany you?"

"I can give you what you want, whatever it is, I can give it to you."

"But I don't have what I want." Ergou said helplessly.

Suddenly a girl popped out in front of her. The girl was wearing a pink dress and her cheeks were slightly bulging. She said to Ergou, "Aren't you a Taoist priest? You don't want to practice? Don't you want to break through the Nascent Soul and become a fairy?"

"It doesn't matter..." Ergou replied, "Let it take its course."

"You...you!" The girl pointed at Ergou, shaking with anger, and couldn't think of a good adjective.

"By the way, have you seen my master?" Er Gou completely ignored the girl, looked around and asked.

"No!" the girl said angrily.

"How do I get out of here?"

"I won't let you go out." The girl stared at Ergou, "I want you to stay here with me."

Ergou turned his head and looked at the girl in front of him. The girl was shorter than him, and she looked less than ten years old. She had a pink and cute face, and there were a few pink petals on the right side of her head. Ergou didn't know each other, but thought it was beautiful.

"Why do you want me to accompany you?"

"Because I'm the only one here!"

"Then... shall we go out together?"

The girl froze for a moment, then said in a low voice, "I can't get out..."

"why?"

"My father trapped me here, I can't get out..." The girl lowered her head, tears fell from her eyes, "My father doesn't like me, nor my mother, he only likes my sister... "

"Don't cry." Ergou looked at the girl and comforted him softly, "You can live on your own, you don't need others to need you, and you don't live for others."

The girl couldn't listen to Ergou's comfort at all, and the more she cried, the more sad she became. Ergou had no choice but to listen to the girl crying beside him.The sky where the sun was shining was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and then it began to rain heavily. Ergou didn't even think about hiding, so he simply sat down beside the girl.

The girl cried for a long time, until she was tired from crying, she slowly stopped.

"Have you cried enough?"

"Ugh..."

"You continue." Ergou said, and continued to sit beside him.

"Ugh...you...what do you want to say?"

"You finish crying first."

"I won't cry anymore..." The girl stopped crying slightly, "You... woo... What do you want to ask?"

"I just want to ask how to get out, but after thinking about it, you may not know."

"Woo... my father said... said... that I must be able to lure a... woo... a Taoist priest at the alchemy stage... only then... can I go out."

"The alchemy period?" Ergou was stunned, "I haven't reached the concentration period yet."

The girl looked at Ergou, her eyes widened, "I can help you..."

"Honestly, I'm really not in a rush..."

"Otherwise we won't be able to get out."

"Okay." Ergou resigned, "How to start?"

The girl smiled, and Ergou looked at the girl's smile in front of him, and what suddenly flashed in his mind was the girl's body covered in blood, and she died with regret.He shook his head again. These messy pictures have always been released recently, but in all likelihood, it will never happen.

Forget it, forget it, practice.
