My name is Teng Zhao. Before I was seven years old, I had been living in a lonely world. I didn’t like to be in contact with others, and I was even less willing to answer them, because I saw that everyone was wearing layers of masks, and their faces seemed to be covered with masks. There were several faces that I couldn't see through, and I didn't want to look at them. The more evil-hearted the people, the more ferocious their faces were, like the evil ghosts recorded in the unofficial histories.
I like reading, writing and playing chess. Doing these things can make me feel at peace. Before I was seven years old, Mr. Du was the one who accompanied me most. He was very good, but when I looked at him, he was still covered with a mask, and I could not see clearly the most real things. one side.
I know that many people say that I am a freak. My family dislikes my left-wing and independent temperament, and thinks that I am cold. They say that I was born a stone person and cannot keep warm.
I admit that I really don’t have the love for everyone they say, and I can’t dress up in colorful clothes and play with relatives like other children of the same age in the family. Looking at their cheerful faces, I feel like I’m watching an actor.
They kept a distance from me and said behind my back that I was a poor person. I didn't care, but felt comfortable. I preferred to be alone.
I thought I would always be alone like this until the most important person in my life appeared.
She is only a few years older than me, and her eyes are very smart. When she looked at me and smiled, my eyes were a little sore, and I felt like I hadn’t seen her for a long time.
I saw her really clearly. There was no other mask, but the truest side.
I think she and I must have met in my previous life, otherwise how could my heart be so excited?
Now, she appears by my side again.
She took me away.
She became my master. Her real name is Qin Liuxi. She is a Taoist priest who is not willing to make progress but has great kindness and righteousness in his heart.
Since then, my heart has felt warm, and it feels like I have landed in a real place, no longer a floating void.
Master’s teaching is very casual and focuses on self-cultivation. In her words, the master leads me in. Cultivation depends on oneself, so I learn by myself.
Having said that, she has not fallen behind at all when it comes to teaching.
The master is very powerful and very defensive. She has no standard for right and wrong, but she always pays attention to cause and effect. Among the righteous paths that only punish evil, she is even a little evil and crooked, because she will make people Evil controls evil, even if the opponent is a resentful ghost.
I like Master better than being upright. I always have the feeling that everything she does is right.
Later, Millennium Little Ginseng told me, is that called blind worship and master control?
I don’t quite understand, but I only know that what Master said is right.
She often told me to be more diligent and learn faster. She was just a lazy person. When she was young, she relied on her master to support her. When she had an apprentice, she relied on her apprentice to support her. But in fact, my master, me, and Qingpingguan all relied on me. Keep her.
I feel sorry for Master, but I don’t want to disappoint her even more, because I feel a sense of urgency and crisis, as if if I are lazy, I will not be able to catch up with her, and I will always be the one looking up to and waiting for her, so I worked hard to learn.
Later I learned that this urgency is called fighting side by side, and there was always a strong panic in my heart.
I'm afraid that one day she will really leave me completely!
This kind of panic has become a reality.
I have great skills, but I was never of much help in the battle to kill the gods. It was the master who demonstrated the Tao with his own body and protected the people of this world, while she fell into nothingness forever.
I’m so angry!
She actually left us all behind, she was so cruel. I knelt in the Land of the Fallen Angels for three days and three nights, and searched there for a whole month, but I couldn't find even a trace of soul.
That's right, that Si Luo is so powerful that even the two sects of Buddhism and Taoism we have today can't stop him. The master probably expected that this would be an insurmountable life-and-death barrier, so she used her body formation to kill him.
Master, she is no longer here.
This knowledge made me scared, painful, and unbelievable.
How come such a powerful master is no longer around?
I worship her statue day and night, and pray to the sky day and night. She just went on a journey, and I look forward to her early return.
Day after day, year after year, I am not lazy at all. I practice day and night, and I have perfected my skills. I have even become the youngest foundation-building master in the world. I want to tell her that you can come back. I have grown up. It can be raised and raised, you can go wherever you want and play however you want.
I kept waiting and waiting, but I never saw her suddenly appear, touch my head and call me "good disciple," and I was already middle-aged.
At the age of thirty-five, it has been twenty years since Master left. Emperor Kangping Qi Qian, whom she supported, has come to the end of his life. I went to see him off and took away the one that Master calculated for me. Destined disciple.
Qi Qian built a memorial temple for the Master for believers to visit. He said that the Master deserved to be remembered. He also said that even though she had been away for many years, he did not want anyone to forget her.
how can that be possible?
In addition to me and him, there are many people who remember Master, including the Qin family, Yu Changkong, many Taoist friends from the Buddhist and Taoist sects, Master's best friend Si Lengyue, etc. Everyone is waiting for her return.
After Qi Qian died, I said hello to Black and White Wuchang and personally led him to Huangquan Road. I didn't expect that he would be so persistent that he would not die after entering Huangquan, but insisted on waiting below.
He said that death is not terrible. What is terrible is that she will never see her return.
She shouldn’t be in nothingness.
Looking at his sad look, I couldn't say anything to persuade him. If I wanted to wait, just wait. He is a nail-biter in the underworld, and no one dares to say anything even if he is a human emperor.
I took him to the Karma Fire Hell and told him that if one day the fire here rekindles the Karma Fire, it would be her return.
Later, I went to see the Hell of Karma every year when Master left. Qi Qian was always there, staring at the endless Hell of Karma with no other bright colors except black.
I feel gratified for Master. Her efforts are not without reward. Some people always remember her and firmly believe that she will come back.
This is true for Qi Qian, and so is the fox who has been guarding the tombstone in the Land of Fallen Angels.
I thought that this belief only supported us to survive, but I didn’t expect that the reason why belief is belief is because we always believe in hope and miracles.
Regarding Master’s miracle, I took my new stupid little disciple to kowtow to her and tell her that I had found a successor for Qingpingguan, whose Taoist name was Changdu. I hoped that he would be like Master, and that he would pass the When people cross ghosts, they cross themselves.
Who would have thought that that ordinary little fat man, who just slept in front of the tombstone, could detect the soul of his master and say that he saw his master.
She said that Changdu means a long life.
what does that mean?
means that what they are waiting for is not just in vain. One day, the old friend will return! (End of chapter)
