Don't fall in love with a pig killer!

Xue Lingjing didn't respond.

There was no movement on his back except for a light and heavy breathing. Shi Shi tentatively took a step forward, went up to the top of the hill, and leaned over to look, only to see flowers blooming all over the mountains, surrounded by clouds and mist, and the fragrance of the canyon. The sound of frolicking, yellow hair and hanging hair in the peach blossom garden are all enjoying themselves, and Wuling disciples are also at ease.

He saw Fu Qingfeng drunk in front of the wine altar. Cen Qihe and Yu Dailan, who shouldn't be in the mountain at this time, were competing with swords and betting on wine. Fishing by the stream, the stone pondered for a while, and in retrospect it was Yu Suqing.

"Is this an illusion? Xue Lingjing?" Shito asked blankly, his eyes wandering, and suddenly he saw an immortal sleeping on a flower tree deep in the red cloud. Bai's wrist hangs down, a long string of jasper beads is wrapped around his wrist, and a gorgeous gold-plated folding fan is pinched between his fingers.

His eyes hurt for no reason, and he looked away immediately.

"It's a labyrinth." Xue Lingjing said slowly, "This is the formation I laid down to capture Song Zhiyu... Taoyuan Labyrinth, there is no way out, unless the caster dies, the formation will not be broken."

Stone stopped abruptly.

"What you just... said was wrong." Xue Lingjing's breath was as thin as a gossamer, and his voice was like a spider web torn by the wind, "I don't want to escape."

Stone said hoarsely, "Why is that? I don't understand."

Xue Lingjing smiled, and suddenly said: "When my master Yu Suqing was in danger, I tried to protect him with the Zhuxian formation, but in the end the formation failed, and the master died...Since then, the evil in my heart has taken root .”

Stone listened quietly, his eyes fell on the petals on the ground, he took a step forward, and with a rustling sound, the petals were stepped into the mud.

"Niesha is in my heart, like a long knot. I am so afraid of it. I often tie my hands and feet, thinking that if the Zhuxian Formation was completed back then, and I died for Master, everything would be better." Xue Lingjing suddenly After a pause, he said with a helpless smile, "Every time this kind of thought arises... the knot becomes more and more entangled, and the guilt on my body becomes heavier and heavier. The more I want to untie it, the deeper I get stuck in it. It twists and turns, like falling into a maze, and there is no return."

Shi Shi said, "I don't understand."

Xue Lingjing said to himself: "This time I encountered a catastrophe, I met you, and I also went through life and death, but I gradually recalled... Back then, the vow to become an immortal was not because of the appreciation of the immortal, nor was it because I was accused of being an immortal. The head of the sect, but because I want to live two more years... I want to guard my acre of Taoyuan, guard my teachers, apprentices and neighbors, and blame myself, fear and worry for them when they are in pain and when they die Disturbance, I never practiced Taoism to get rid of these, but to face these... I no longer want to untie my evil, I want to walk along it, when I plan to walk all the way along the knot of evil Only then did I realize that it is not complicated, it is just a straight path in front of me."

Stone shook his head vigorously.

"Immortal journey is not my way, and evil is not my calamity." Xue Lingjing said softly, "So I didn't die by evil, do you understand?"

Shi Shi was stunned, choked his throat and forced a smile: "You are still thinking about that bet at this moment! Let me tell you first, I won't help you take care of those disciples of yours..."

Before he finished speaking, a chill came from the back of his neck, he stretched out his hand to touch the stone, and something was passed into his hand, and when he took it to his eyes, it was a white jade finger ring.

"I will pass on the position of head of Wuling to you." Xue Lingjing said without a word, "My request is that you take over this finger."

Shitou opened his mouth wide: "Xue Lingjing?"

Xue Lingjing forced a smile: "You don't dare?"

"I'm not joking with you anymore." Shitou said angrily, "I'm a mortal, I have no cultivation and no celestial karma, I have always been free and easy, I can scold whoever I like, beat whoever I like, and your disciples and grandchildren, Each one is..."

"Don't you dare?" Xue Lingjing interrupted him.

As soon as Shito stomped his foot, he put the finger on his index finger, and when he was halfway through it, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Xue Lingjing, if I put it on, will you die?"

Xue Lingjing laughed lightly.

The jade ring finger was finally pushed to the root of the finger little by little. Shi Shi stared blankly at his palm, listened to the subtle breathing in his ear, and asked softly, "Are you still alive? Xue Lingjing?"

Xue Lingjing: "Yes."

"Are you still alive?" He confirmed again and again.

"...Well, stop making noise." Master Xue's voice was so fragmented by the wind that it was almost unrecognizable.

Shi Shi became quiet, and it took a long time for Wei Hua's contemptuous voice to float into his ears again: "By the way... I've never asked you... What's your name?"

Shitou said, "My name is Xie Qiushi."

The breathing on the shoulders suddenly stagnated, and it was as quiet as if there was no sound.

Shitou hurriedly called: "Xue Lingjing, are you still alive?"

"……thanks……"

"What's there to be thankful for? Are you on fire?" Shitou reached out to touch his forehead, but only felt a piece of ice cold, "Xue Lingjing?"

Xue Lingjing didn't answer this time, and there was no light breath on his neck.

The movement of the stone froze, and the raised arm slowly dropped, resting weakly on his side.

He turned his head and saw the forest wind swirling in the mountains suddenly, blowing away the grand scenery of the peach garden, blowing away the people coming and going, the noise of playing and playing faded away, leaving only the empty valley silent, rustling and insects walking, and the deer returning to the slope is still there. On the desolate and desolate Luhuipo, there is no grass and jagged rocks.

"Xue Lingjing..."

Shi Shi stood quietly, his arms loosened, and the body behind him fell heavily to the ground. He looked back and saw Master Xue curled up on the ground, his eyes closed tightly, and his complexion was snow-white, as if he had fallen asleep.

Under the large robe, only half of the bone remains covered with gnawing marks.

The stone burned the insects and ants with a fire, and walked unsteadily to Wuling.

Only Fu Qingfeng was waiting in front of the back mountain, but he could hear the whispers of thousands of disciples among the cliffs:

"Has the master master ascended?"

"The head master didn't use the guardian, I'm worried..."

"What are you afraid of? Just now Luhuipo's magnificent view of the Taoyuan, isn't it the auspicious omen of the rumored immortal's ascension?"

"The matter of eating brocade insects..."

Shi Shi listened with his neck stiff, covered his mouth and yelled muffled a few times, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Sect Master Xue succeeded in crossing the catastrophe and ascended to immortality. Song Zhiyu and Shi Jinchong all I have been put to death, and Wuling turned catastrophe into joy, and ordered to rest for three days, and hold a banquet at Xianyuntai to celebrate!"

There was a silence in the mountain, and then there was thunderous cheering, the stone jumped up, turned over and climbed onto the boulder that was used for self-criticism a few days ago, and shouted again: "Master Xue has successfully overcome the calamity, ascended to immortality, and the wicked will be punished, and the calamity will be turned into joy!" , take a rest for three days, hold a banquet to celebrate—"

There were echoes in the canyon, he shouted several times, suddenly his legs and feet became weak, he slid down from the boulder, hid behind the shadow of the stone, and sat against the back of the stone, staring blankly at the fingers between his fingers.

A figure walked around in front of him, and when he looked up, it was Fu Qingfeng.

"How is Master?" Fu Qingfeng asked tremblingly, "Did you really ascend?"

Shi Shi didn't speak for a long time, and nodded after a long time.

Fu Qingfeng looked at his red eyes, and followed his line of sight to see the white jade wrench finger. He staggered, and there was a sharp pain in front of his eyes. He knelt down and grabbed the stone's left hand, and asked, "Then what is the stain on your body?" whose blood?"

Only then did Shi Shi look at Fu Qingfeng, and opened his fingers one by one.

Fu Qingfeng said angrily: "Speak!"

"He has ascended." Shito said word by word, "So he won't become evil in any of you, understand?"

Fu Qingfeng froze.

After a long time, he suddenly smashed the jug in his hand with all his strength, and fell to his knees heavily on the ground amidst the cheers and celebrations, and burst into tears.
