Cherishing each other with a thousand bones

There is a large area on the mountain behind the Palace of Unrequited Love, every time she has nothing to do, Qingruo loves to wander here, finding a good place to take a rest like a treasure hunt.It can be said that Qingruo's footprints have been left in every part of the Palace of Unrequited Love, but the back mountain is where she always stays.

Back Mountain Bamboo Sea, the environment is quiet, the breeze blows, and the bamboo leaves rustle lightly, which is beautiful and pleasant, but it is overwhelmed by the sound of two silver bells in the forest.Two pretty girls in their teens came from the forest, one in front and one behind, the former in a light blue brocade robe and apricot-colored silk, with an elegant demeanor; Grateful and somewhat hesitant, these two people are Qing Ruo and Hua Qiangu.Qing Ruo heard that Hua Qiangu wanted to talk to her, and thought that the Houshan Bamboo Sea was a good place to talk, so she came with Hua Qiangu, and the palace bells worn by the two of them also swayed with their steps, crisp and melodious , also broke a piece of tranquility.

"Junior Sister, just tell me what you want to say, it's very quiet here, no one disturbs you." Qing Ruo took Hua Qiangu to the stone table deep in the bamboo forest and sat down, took out the tea set from the storage ring, He made tea and sipped tea, poured a cup for himself and Hua Qiangu each, looked at Hua Qiangu's somewhat tangled Baozi face and said with a smile, like a gentle and considerate senior sister.

"I just woke up, and I heard from Tangbao that I was poisoned by Xisui Powder, and my immortal aptitude was almost destroyed, so I couldn't become an immortal. Fortunately, my master rescued me in time, and I was able to continue cultivating after opening up the immortal veins with a hundred years of skill." Hua Qian Gu thought that when he just woke up, he was in a daze and didn't know where he was. He looked at Tang Bao in front of the bed foolishly, and only after hearing Tang Bao's narration did he realize that it was Master who saved him. Once I proved that I was wrong before, the master was not only good to my senior sister, but in fact the master was also good to me, otherwise I wouldn't have spent a hundred years of skill to help me cultivate the immortal body.

"Junior Sister, don't you just want to say these things to me? If you want to express your gratitude to Master, it would be better if you tell him yourself. I'm not in the mood to convey it to you." After hearing Hua Qiangu's words, Qing Ruo replied angrily, rolled his eyes in his heart, he was indeed a teenager, and said in front of his senior sister how his master treats him well, is it really okay?Are you sure you didn't come here to gain hatred?If she hadn't seen the slightest hint of showing off in Hua Qiangu's eyes, she would really have thought that Hua Qiangu was here to challenge her.

"Senior Sister, you misunderstood me. I came to express my thanks to you. Earlier, Tang Bao said that the Nine Flowers Jade Dew was given by you. The effect is very good. You can see that all my injuries have healed up and I can move around freely." Hua Qiangu Hearing Qingruo's tone, she knew that she had done something bad with good intentions, and she was clearly here to thank her, but she didn't make it clear, which made the senior sister misunderstand.In a panic, she said everything, stood up, and circled vigorously in front of Qingruo, showing that she was really in good health, and she really came to thank her.

"Okay, I get it, don't turn around in front of my eyes, your eyes are almost blurred by you." Qing Ruo looked at Hua Qiangu's anxious steamed bun face, there was still something she didn't believe, she didn't expect Hua Qiangu is sometimes so simple, not as ruthless as she was at the Fairy Sword Conference, but her heart is complicated, even if she sees all kinds of things in the world, she will sigh.Innocence is like a flower, like a piece of white paper, but there is also a hidden darkness in the bottom of my heart. I can risk my life for the sake of being a teacher, and I am cruel enough to myself. When necessary, how can I treat others kindly?She looked back and thought about her two lives, she and Hua Qiangu were not much different, they were just laughing at fifty steps, she was only cruel and ruthless within the scope allowed by her principles, while Hua Qiangu was in a place where she had a goal. At that time, her previous goal was to worship her as a teacher, but what about in the future?Keep a distance between yourself and her, just be a pair of teachers and sisters, there is no need to go further.

Only then did Hua Qiangu sit down slowly, opened those round eyes, and said happily: "You believe me, right? I really came to express my gratitude to you." She seemed to recall the past The matter, I became quiet all of a sudden, the smile in my eyes disappeared, and I sank into the memory, and said: "I remember when we started to stay in Changzhou, at that time I noticed my senior sister, she was as beautiful as Mantian, But they are two different people, Man Tian has a lively personality, everything is shown on his face, he looks difficult to get along with, but he has no bad intentions, and his heart is the softest, while the senior sister is on the contrary, she looks gentle and pleasant, and she will stay with her for a long time Some of the disciples are on good terms with you, but I dare not approach you, because I always feel that senior sister is like a gorgeous flower on a high mountain, elusive but elusive."

Silently listening to Hua Qiangu's memories, Qing Ruo was a little speechless, why didn't she know when she would become a flower of Gaoling, and it was still out of reach. Could it be that she didn't want to be so obvious about Hua Qiangu before?It's not right, I didn't want to talk to anyone before, but I was more polite to the other party, and wouldn't let the other party feel my own thoughts. Could it be that people with simple minds have more accurate intuition?

Hua Qiangu on the opposite side didn't stop her narration, nor did she notice the momentary entanglement in Qing Ruo's eyes, she continued: "I met Master before I went to Changliu, when Shushan was destroyed. , I met Master for the first time. Shushan was destroyed, Taoist Master Qingxu died unexpectedly, and entrusted Shushan to me when he was dying. The master said that my talent was too poor, so he didn’t want to accept me. But I really had nowhere to go, so I went to Changliu, and finally became a disciple of Changliu. In order to worship Master as a teacher, I have been working hard, practicing until late every day, And every time I see you learn so easily, I feel envious in my heart. Later, the more I compare with you, the more sad I feel, and then I think about the big difference in talent and cultivation, let alone why so many long-term disciples like you, yes You're so nice, I'm growing jealous of you."

"Actually, I'm the one who should be jealous of you." Qing Ruo interrupted Hua Qiangu's narration with a hint of sadness. Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Hua Qiangu looked at her suspiciously, Qing Ruo asked "Do you know what your cultivation level is now?" She continued without waiting for Hua Qiangu's answer, "You have reached the realm of knowledge and micro-knowledge, think about the realm of those mortals who entered Changliu with you Even if I entered the Zhiwei Realm, I have been cultivating immortals for nearly three years, and you have only cultivated immortals for one year." What Qing Ruo didn't say is that she has also worked hard in cultivation, and she does go to bed earlier than Hua Qiangu every night, but wakes up earlier , It’s just that everyone doesn’t know it, because influenced by the concept of the previous life, a woman should be elegant and calm, and her efforts are not on the bright side.

Hua Qiangu didn't know how to answer for a while, she really only saw the person running in front of her, but she forgot that the person started earlier than herself, so she kept ignoring her own efforts.In fact, I was very lucky to be able to worship my master as a teacher. Generally, a master would look at his aptitude when accepting apprentices, but the master was willing to accept himself as an apprentice, regardless of his own talent.

Qing Ruo ignored what Hua Qiangu was struggling with, and continued: "At the beginning, Master was willing to accept me as a disciple but rejected you. You may have been jealous and resentful, but I can tell you that there should be a reason for this, it's just you and me. I just don't know."

"What's the reason?" Hua Qiangu was surprised for a moment, why didn't she know there was another reason, she always thought that because of having a senior sister, the master was not willing to accept her as a disciple.After all, Dongfang, sister, and brother Lang all like me, but the master doesn't like me. I always think that it's because my sister's excellence makes me clumsy, so the master doesn't accept me as a disciple.At the beginning, she always wanted to please the master, let the master see her hard work, and sooner or later she would like herself.Later, Master gradually became willing to teach her and eat with her, so she slowly let go and thought of Master's kindness again.She didn't expect there were other reasons for this, and she was astonished in her heart.

"I don't know, you can find it yourself. I saw Master holding our three life-testing stones in a daze before in the Palace of Unrequited Love. It probably has something to do with it. I think Master is unwilling to tell the reason. Maybe it's not a good reason. So don’t tell others what you said today.” Qing Ruo said irresponsibly, she believed that with Hua Qiangu’s perseverance, she would be able to find the key by herself, and she would also be able to understand the group of people who stayed with her for a long time. thoughts.In the past, she did enter Changliu with the attitude of watching the master and apprentice fall in love and kill each other, but she didn't know when this mentality changed. She didn't want her master who had always loved her to fall into that crazy end. With his reputation ruined, she only wanted him to stand on the clouds forever as he wished, always be that cold and indifferent fairy, looking down on all living beings in the world, and protecting the common people in the six realms.

Hua Qiangu fell into silence for a moment, wondering: What is the reason why Master is not willing to accept me as an apprentice?

"Can you use the technique of microscopic observation?" Qing Ruo didn't want to bring Hua Qiangu into trouble by herself, she did this just to break the situation of the people behind the scenes, and the future is long, don't rush this moment, she believes that as long as If the operation is done properly, it will always break the game.

Hua Qiangu's attention was attracted by Qingruo's question, and she let go of the doubts in her heart. She heard that the technique of microscopic observation is powerful, so she shook her head, looked at Qingruo without blinking, and said: "Senior sister, you must know the art of microscopic observation, teach me."

"This microscopic technique is mainly performed through carriers such as mirrors and water. When you see the people and things you want to see, some people with profound Taoism don't need carriers. They only need to pinch their fingers to know things thousands of miles away. If the other party has an enchantment, you will not be able to see anything." Qing Ruo finished speaking, took out a mirror from the storage ring, handed it to Hua Qiangu, and said: "Here, take Come on, try what I say."

Hua Qiangu took the mirror, touched the exquisite pattern around the frame, and remembered that she was going to learn magic, so she couldn't help sitting upright, looked at Qingruo and said, "Senior sister, I'm ready."

"With your current cultivation level, it's not enough to observe the world. Why don't you start from the nearest place, starting from the Palace of Unrequited Love, take a look at Master, hold your breath, and use your mind to perceive where Master is, and then observe the micro, otherwise you can't take it for a long time." It takes a lot of mana to find someone aimlessly." Qing Ruo thought that they had all left the tower room for so long, and that the master and Shangxian Zixun should have finished talking, so she couldn't help suggesting that Hua Qiangu observe the master.

On the other end, after Qingruo and Hua Qiangu left, Bai Zihua took Xia Zixun to the small garden and sat opposite each other. He was still as cold as before, but his face was paler than usual, and he gently opened his thin lips and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"I went to see Tan Fan secretly a few days ago. He seems to be living a fulfilling and happy life in the world. I didn't expect that among the five immortals, he is the only one living a happy life." Xia Zixun looked at Bai Zihua, Speaking of seeing Tan Fan a few days ago, maybe Tan Fan is trying to let go of himself.

"That's natural. Among the few of us, he is the only one who obeys the heart the most." Bai Zihua thought of Wushangxian back then, senior brother Donghua disappeared, Wugou returned to Liancheng and he was not born again, and Zixun and himself were like this. There is Tanfan who can see it openly and is at ease.

"Follow your heart? What about you? Take over as head, ruthless and desireless, do you follow your heart? Let go of your past, make an exception and accept apprentices, do you follow your heart?" Xia Zixun lost control of her emotions and asked repeatedly, I followed his footsteps, but I didn't expect him to be indifferent. He only wanted to stay for a long time, only for the responsibility in his heart, and ignored his own affection.

"Zi Xun, you have to know that in my world, there is only whether you should or not, and there is no willing or not." Seeing Zi Xun like this, Bai Zihua knew that he was doomed not to be able to respond to her relationship, so he might as well not give her expectations .

"Yeah, a person who doesn't know what I want at all, how can I expect him to respond to my expectations?" Xia Zixun felt anxious when she heard her infatuated person's answer, and said, "Zihua, do you remember?" Hold on, I'd rather you be so ruthless forever."

Seeing Xia Zixun leave in disappointment, Bai Zihua kept thinking about her last words, will she be ruthless forever? I'm afraid it won't be possible now.From the moment he discovered his feelings for A Ruo, it was impossible to be ruthless.At that time in the tower room, he found that he was different from Ah Ruo. Even when he was healing Qian Gu, he was thinking about her. He thought that he might be in love with Ah Ruo, but he kept telling himself that he was not. He was just too worried. That's all.But no matter how many reasons he found at that time to convince himself that he didn't have feelings for A Ruo, it was not as good as when he stepped out of the tower room and saw A Ruo standing in front of him safe and sound, and he felt happy in his heart.He also hated his dirty thoughts, but when he really saw Ah Ruo's smile, he subconsciously forgot his troubles, as if she should have been loved by everyone.

"Who?" Bai Zihua felt the fluctuation of mana in the air, woke up from his contemplation, and asked sharply, who has such a profound cultivation level, can break through the two barriers of Changliu and Jueqingdian.
