Xianjun has a disaster

Chapter 120

Mortal——

Ji Xueting's nose was a little itchy, and he wanted to sneeze a little.

"Well, who is talking about me behind my back?"

He muttered habitually, and as soon as he finished speaking, the pitiful and sad face of a certain white-haired fairy naturally appeared in his mind.

Ji Xueting: "..."

Thinking of Tianqu, Ji Xueting wanted to sigh for some inexplicable reason - in this big world, Tianqu was the only person who would keep talking about him day and night.

If it was still 3000 years ago, Ji Xueting would have fainted from laughing if he had heard others tell him that the cold-hearted young master of the Yan family would one day turn into such a crazy resentful woman.After all, Yan Gui was so cold and ruthless back then, maintaining his composure, as if nothing could enter his heart.

Of course, if that person told Ji Xueting that Ji Xueting would become as indifferent and ruthless as he is now in 3000 years, I'm afraid he wouldn't believe it.

3000...

In the eyes of heaven and man, it is really not a very long time, but for him, for Tianqu, it seems to be too long, so long that things are different and people are different, and it is hard to find the past.

"Xue Ting, you just—"

At this moment, Ji Xueting suddenly heard the hesitant voice of his senior from the side.

"what happened?"

Ji Xueting's expression remained unchanged, he turned his head to meet Jin Ganduo's gaze calmly, and asked indifferently.

Jin Ganduo's eyes flickered slightly, he paused for a moment, and then smiled and said: "These two times I saw you, I think you are very different from the past. But after the ascension, do you have another adventure?"

It should be said that he is worthy of being the head of the school, Jin Ganduo's words are very well grasped, it sounds seven parts serious and three parts jokes, just like normal casual chatter between brothers and sisters.

Only Jin Ganduo knew that when he saw Ji Xueting's current appearance, his heart felt as if a heavy stone had weighed on him.

Ji Xueting has indeed changed these days, he has become more agile, more emotionally changeable, and more like a living human being.If this is a good thing for other monster races who are practicing Taoism, after all, the more they are like this, the more successful they are in their cultivation.

But for a cultivator who practices the Ruthless Way, this can only show that...

"Brother, don't worry about me."

Ji Xueting suddenly said in a soft voice without beginning or end. Obviously, Jin Ganduo's skill of whitewashing the peace and avoiding the most important things is still not up to the mark in front of his little brother.He didn't express his worry, but Ji Xueting knew it clearly in his heart.

"I know it well. My way has never changed from the beginning to the end."

Ji Xueting patted Jin Ganduo on the shoulder, as if to comfort him.

It's just that it's okay if he doesn't speak, but when he did, Jin Ganduo's expression turned gloomy.

"It's this sentence again, you said you know what's in your heart, but I don't look like it." Jin Ganduo said, "Xue Ting, you have too much involvement with 'that' fairy in the sky, and it is not good for you to arouse emotions and desires like this. It’s not a good thing.”

The last sentence Jin Ganduo said was serious, but when he glanced away, he saw Ji Xueting's expression, and the senior brother Jin Ganduo's demeanor suddenly collapsed again.

"Hey, look at you... that's all, you can discuss this matter with Master."

He shook his head and sighed.

Master?

I heard my senior brother mention the old man Zixu.

A gleam flashed in Ji Xueting's eyes.

"Well, I do have a lot of things I want to ask Master for advice."

Ji Xueting said with a smile.

If he hadn't thought about it too much, he would probably feel that his descent to the world went so smoothly that day, like a dream.

As I said before, the old man Zixu has been missing for a long time in the world.Only on this day, Ji Xueting went down to earth and wanted to meet the old man Zixu, and it was such a "coincidence" that the old man returned to Jieyun Mountain suddenly.

The first thing Jin Ganduo said after seeing Ji Xueting who came down to earth was: "Master told you to go back to see him earlier, he has a lot to say to you."

At that time, Ji Xueting had a strange feeling that the old man Zixu seemed to have already figured out all the difficulties he encountered, so he came back specially to explain his doubts.

It's just that the old man Zixu, who is a mortal, can so easily figure out the actions and thoughts of an immortal official who has ascended to immortality?

Regarding his master, Ji Xueting originally had a lot of unclear things in his heart, and now he is full of doubts.

That is to say, Jin Gan is on the side, Ji Xueting really can't reveal anything, so he can only pretend that everything is as usual.

He and Jin Ganduo are now walking quickly on the ridge of Jieyun Mountain, and they have arrived in the Yun Palace not long after.

In fact, when Jun Muqing exposed his identity and fought with Ji Xueting and the others, that simple courtyard was almost destroyed.But looking at it now, not only the thatched hut has been restored to its original state, but even the small vegetable field next to it has been restored to its usual state under the influence of magic.

Ji Xueting paused in front of the courtyard gate, and Jin Ganduo bumped into his shoulder, and muttered to him angrily: "Why didn't you go in? Afraid that Master will scold you?"

"I'm not afraid of being scolded by Master—that's all, brother, don't worry."

Seeing Jin Ganduo's expression, Ji Xueting sighed and replied helplessly.

Then he raised his hand, pushed the door open and walked in.

The courtyard door opened, and the first thing Ji Xueting saw was a thin and short figure with gray hair.

The old man Zixu is standing in the cabbage field now, hunched over, holding a ladle in one hand and a bucket in the other, watering the cabbage with the ladle tremblingly.

If you only look at the back view, that person is nothing more than an ordinary mountain farmer.

But Ji Xueting only saw the back of the man, and a sense of closeness and peace of mind naturally appeared in the body of the puppet made by him.

"Master, you are finally back."

Ji Xueting yelled.

The old man turned his head, revealing an ordinary face.

It was a very ordinary, very ordinary face of an old man.

A face full of wrinkles, the traces of the years are fine and dense, like a fishing net covering the face covered with age spots.Because of his old age, his eyelids had drooped, covering his eyes that looked cloudy.

The old man didn't seem to have a mysterious temperament, he really didn't look like a mysterious and mysterious outsider, let alone a fairy official and the master of the head of Jieyun Mountain.

However, after seeing Ji Xueting, the first sentence said by the old man Zixu broke this "ordinary".

"If I were you, I would never think of exploring the sea of ​​nothingness."

"Master?"

Ji Xueting's expression changed.

Tianqu is probably the only person in the world who knows about his coming down to explore the sea of ​​nothingness this time, not even Lu Ren, who had been looking up the classics for him before, had no way of knowing.

But the old man Zixu knows so clearly, as if what Ji Xueting knows and thinks is like a mirror, he can see it at a glance.

The old man Zixu smiled, temporarily ignoring Ji Xueting's confusion at this time, but turned his head to look at Jin Ganduo.He waved his hand, and Jin Ganduo immediately understood that this was what the old man Zixu wanted him to avoid.Master Jie Yunshan's eyes turned between his junior brother and the mysterious master, seeming to be a little vacillating, even if one side is his respected master, and the other side is his junior who has already ascended to immortality, how can Jin Gan do this? Sometimes there is always a wonderful feeling of uneasiness.

"Agan, you child is too thoughtful, so you have been wasting in the mortal world and have not been able to soar." The old man Zixu's face remained unchanged, and he sighed at Jin Ganduo with a trace of intimacy, "Don't worry, you first Avoid it, I have some private things to say with your junior brother."

His tone was still very gentle, but Jin Ganduo couldn't help but shivered.

"Yes, Master."

He gave Ji Xueting a worried look for the last time, and said silently to Ji Xueting with his mouth: "If you want to admit your mistake, you should admit it quickly, don't be stubborn."

After speaking, he bowed his body and left the small courtyard backwards.

"This child, really, makes me seem to be able to eat you."

Seeing Jin Ganduo's figure disappearing outside the gate of the small courtyard, the old man Zixu sighed and smiled wryly.

"Master, how do you know that I—"

Ji Xueting didn't answer, but hesitantly uttered the question in his heart, but before he finished speaking, the old man Zixu interrupted him.

"Oh, I felt something in my heart a few days ago, and I just calculated these little things."

The old man Zixu made a haha, and said with a smile.

While talking, he looked at Ji Xueting carefully from top to bottom with loving eyes.I don't know what he saw, but a trace of pity slowly appeared on his wrinkled face.

"Hey, I knew that once you ascended, you might encounter that grievance again. You and that immortal lord have not had a relationship before, and if you continue your relationship now, it will only increase your resentment. I saw you practice the ruthless way before. , I thought you could escape this catastrophe, but I didn't expect that what should come will come anyway, and what can't be avoided will naturally not be able to escape."

As if he didn't notice Ji Xueting's growing suspicion at this moment, the old man Zixu sighed and said again.

In fact, as early as many years ago, the old man Zixu always had such a godlike appearance.

But just now when he opened his mouth, he pointed out that Ji Xueting was investigating the sea of ​​nothingness, and he had already shown his supernatural powers.Now hearing him talk about the little incident between him and Tianqu, Ji Xueting's heart sank slightly.

"Master, the fact that Tianqu and I are not worth mentioning. Since you have discovered the Sea of ​​Nothingness, you should also know that the Sea of ​​Nothingness is a matter of the safety and survival of this world. If you really know the Sea of ​​Nothingness I hope Master will tell me exactly where it is!"

"No rush, no rush."

The old man Zixu raised his hand and said with a smile.

Ji Xueting's eyes froze, and he found that with the raising of the old man Zixu's hand, a strict restriction that he had never seen before was slowly unfolding like this.The originally bright and sunny sky in Jieyun Mountain darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye—no, it should be said that the restraint of the old man Zixu completely isolated this small courtyard from the outside world so easily.

Ji Xueting's complexion did not change, but secretly performed the calculation of the fairy method, and found that with the completion of the restriction, he, the old man Zixu, and even the whole courtyard were no longer within the five elements and six paths.

Even though he knew that the old man Zixu did this so that the conversation between the two would not be spied on in any way, but Ji Xueting felt more and more heavy in his heart. He did not want to have any doubts about the old man Zixu anyway, but after going through many things before After that, looking at the old man Zixu again, Ji Xueting became more and more suspicious even if he didn't want to.

The old man Zixu didn't pay attention to Ji Xueting's complicated mood after showing his hands. He looked at the sky, then bent down, and continued to water the cabbage that he hadn't finished watering before, and then snapped his fingers.

A table and two chairs suddenly appeared in the dilapidated small courtyard. There was coarse tea on the ordinary bamboo table. Behind the bowl, he took a fixed look at Ji Xueting.

"Xue Ting, why don't you sit down? It can't be that the tea prepared by the teacher is not good, haha."

He even thought about joking.

Ji Xueting stood there for a moment, and then sat down opposite the old man Zixu with a blank expression.

Old man Zixu tapped the table with his knuckles regularly.

"I know you're in a hurry, but there are some things that I really can't tell you before the time comes." The old man looked at Ji Xueting kindly, his eyes tender and compassionate, "It's not a good world these days, sometimes things are like this, the more you If you want to make things right, but if you act rashly before the time comes, this world will only get worse."

A gleam flashed in Ji Xueting's eyes.

The old man Zixu said again at this time: "Besides, when the time is up, the things you want to ask now, you don't need me to talk about them endlessly, you will understand. Of course, if you want to know about the sea of ​​nothingness It's nothing serious, I'll just tell you..."

Then the old man Zixu had a detailed talk with Ji Xueting.

It's just that after talking about the sea of ​​nothingness, Ji Xueting mentioned other things, but the old man Zixu just kept going around in circles, and refused to reveal more anyway.Of course, Ji Xueting didn't ask too many questions, he was already aware of something in his heart at this moment.

He looked at the old man Zixu and suddenly asked again: "I don't have much time to stay in this world, so I should go back soon. But I still have one thing that puzzles me, so I just ask Master to clear it up for me—you saved me back then, really Did you just do it randomly? You picked up a stone by the river at random. It is the colorful stone left by Jinmu Butian. And this colorful stone is related to the seal of Daxu. Master, I only ask you Don't lie to me about this matter, you saved me, did you do it on purpose?"

This question was bold and straightforward, but the old man Zixu just looked at Ji Xueting and said helplessly, "I saved you just because I wanted to. That was definitely not intentional, it was God's will."

He raised his hand, and pressed his thin, slightly cold fingers against Ji Xueting's forehead.

"Today's cause bears tomorrow's fruit. Everything in this world is born of the word 'cause and effect'." The old man Zixu pointed down and tapped Ji Xueting's chest, "It is God's will for you to practice the ruthless way , now that your ruthless way has loosened, it's time to worry that kid Jin Ganduo, but..."

The old man Zixu pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "However, it is a good thing even if the Wuqing Dao is loose. You can get rid of the last bit of injustice against Immortal Tong Tianqu as soon as possible. At that time, you will naturally be able to achieve consummation." .”

Consummation?Injustice?

Ji Xueting didn't understand why the old man Zixu appeared frank and straightforward in the sea of ​​nothingness that related to countless conspiracies and schemes and the safety of the world this time, and he didn't hide anything, but when it came to the involvement between Ji Xueting and Tianqu, he was always like this It's like rambling, not exhaustive.

Moreover, if Ji Xueting's guess is correct, the old man Zixu seems to be reminding himself of something?

Ji Xueting thought about it secretly, but still felt his head was full of confusion.He raised his head and wanted to ask again, but when he raised his eyes, where was the shadow of the old man Zixu?

On the side of the bamboo table, the rough tea is still warm, but the old man Zixu has long since disappeared.

"Master..."

Ji Xueting stood still and did not chase after him.

After inquiring about the news about the sea of ​​nothingness, and seeing that the old man Zixu avoided deliberately, Ji Xueting naturally didn't need to stay in the mortal world any longer.

After saying goodbye to his senior brother, Ji Xueting left in a hurry.

Seeing the figure of the fairy in white gradually disappearing into the sky, Master Jieyunshan looked up at the blue sky, and couldn't help but look gloomy.

"You child, if you can't get rid of this problem of thinking too much, you will still suffer in your practice."

Behind him came the voice of the old man Zixu who should have disappeared.

Jin Ganduo was startled, turned his head, and looked at his master. His expression was calm, and he didn't show any surprise at the old man Zixu's return.

He smiled bleakly, and said bitterly: "Xue Ting is my junior brother, how could I not care about him, not love him, just thinking of—"

Before he finished speaking, his throat suddenly choked, and he couldn't make any sound anymore.

The old man Zixu took the bucket of water from before, and slowly poured water down the path beside the cabbage field.

Under the irrigation of that bucket of clear water, the cabbage on the ground grew out of the soil, turned from seedlings to lush greenery, and then quickly turned yellow and withered, turning into a pool of mud.

This kind of scene goes round and round, and the cycle is endless.

"After the little brother has completed the ruthless way, can the common people really be saved?" Looking at the cabbage under the master's water ladle, Jin Ganduo asked in confusion, as if talking to himself.

And the old man Zixu glanced at him, and said softly: "Wrong, how many times have I told you that it was never your brother who saved the common people after he cultivated the way of ruthlessness, but the moment he cultivated the way of ruthlessness, that is When the common people are saved."

After finishing speaking, the old man Zixu also raised his head and glanced at the sky with a calm expression.

"However, his ruthless way has long been loosened. Tian Qu's status is extraordinary, and he is entangled with him. In case, if Xue Ting's ruthless way is revealed, everything in this world will be turned into nothingness."

Jin Ganduo muttered anxiously.

"...It depends on how he chooses. It's not bad if he can't cultivate the ruthless way, and this predestined calamity can also be ended."

The old man Zixu replied calmly with no expression on his face.
