After Failing to Influence the Protagonist

Chapter 21: Ask Tiange again

Views:

Time flies in the mountains. After staying at Yinghui Peak for several months, Pei Jing still doesn't understand the world. Happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy, the seven emotions and six desires, sound simple, but it's a bit difficult to do. After all, most of the time, emotions are just on the surface and can't touch the five dusts of the soul. What's more, he is usually the only one who gets angry at others.

On the outer peak disciples’ monthly day off, Pei Jing planned to go to Tiange again.

His question has been left unanswered for so long, maybe there are other answers.

When he arrived at Wenqing Peak to meet Chen Xu, Chen Xu's face twisted when he heard the purpose of his visit and he was about to chase him away.

Pei Jing said: "Listen to me first before you chase me away. I won't bother you this time. I will go as Zhang Yiming and you can just lead me into the library."

Only cultivators at the foundation-building stage or above can enter the library. If he wants to enter as a new disciple from an outer peak, he must be guided by someone.

Chen Xu was traumatized by the trap he set him up last time.

Being locked up alone in Tiange and facing the angry Elder Lou, he still felt scared when he recalled it now. He said coldly: "No."

Pei Jing said: "Don't be like this, do you want me to be defeated miserably by Feng Jin's brother next time in the heavenly test?"

Chen Xu sneered: "Isn't it a problem for you to hit four with one hammer?"

Pei Jing said: "I went to the ghost realm a few months ago and met Ji Wuduan. He also broke through the golden elixir. People still need to have a sense of crisis and not be overconfident."

He raised an eyebrow: "If Feng Jin really defeats me once, given his personality, I don't know how many years he will brag about it. It will definitely become a shadow in my life."

Chen Xu knew Pei Jing was talking nonsense as soon as he heard it. They grew up together, but he still didn't understand him. The only person who could make Pei Yuzhi bow his head and admit defeat, besides his master, was probably the grandmaster in Jingtian Academy. But he was a good guy by nature, and after being persuaded by Pei Jing, he still agreed with a straight face. As he walked out, he retorted: "I hope someone can defeat you. You said Feng Jin needs to temper his temper, but I think you are the one who needs it the most. You ignored the grandmaster's words in Jingtian Academy?"

Pei Jing listened and thought to himself: I just want to be defeated. But he still didn't say it out loud.

He recalled what his master had said to him in Jingtian Academy. There were so many things that he couldn't figure out which one Chen Xu was referring to.

The sky is vast, and it is the time when summer and autumn meet. There is a walkway in front of the mountain, and the frost leaves are half dyed red. From a distance, it looks like a group of red clouds, scattered in the mountains and forests.

Sitting on the white crane, Chen Xu asked about Chu Junyu.

"How is that disciple in the outer peak?" He still feels heartbroken that such a talented disciple was delayed by Pei Jing.

Pei Jing grabbed the white crane's feathers, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Why do you treat everyone with a father's heart? You haven't even met a few female cultivators, and you're already thinking about being a father?"

Chen Xu: "... Get lost."

Pei Jing smiled and then slowly continued: "Chu Junyu has me by his side. He is practicing well in the outer peak. You don't need to worry about him."

Chen Xu rolled his eyes: "It's because of you that I'm worried."

Pei Jing sat up straight, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "In another three months, this group of new disciples will have been at Yinghui Peak for a full year. There will be a competition to determine their future. If Chu Junyu wins first place, and I appear in my true form and accept him as my disciple, will he be very touched?"

Chen Xu: “…”

After a moment of silence, he said with foresight: "If it were someone else, they might kneel down in gratitude, but if it were Chu Junyu, I think you would be rejected. After all, he thinks you are 'nothing'."

Pei Jing: "When did your memory become so good?"

Chen Xu rarely annoyed him, and he felt refreshed. He said, "I think what he said makes sense. He is a spiritual person. He has known your true nature without even meeting you once."

Pei Jingqi laughed: "Do you want to wake up? He is just being so arrogant because he has never seen me in person." After that, he shamelessly raised his five fingers and counted them: "In terms of cultivation, I am number one on the Heavenly Ranking and unparalleled in the world. In terms of appearance, I am the dream lover of billions of female cultivators in the world of cultivation. I dare say that if he sees me in person, he will definitely take back his words and willingly become my disciple."

Chen Xu had never expected that he would be so shameless: "Okay, wait."

Pei Jing: "Just wait."

I was just kidding... Although he didn't want to admit it, Pei Jing agreed with Chen Xu's words in his heart. He just made up the last sentence.

With Chu Junyu's personality, no matter how you think about it, he would never take someone as his master.

Arriving at Shufeng, we walked through a red maple forest, where the leaves were about to turn red, and the reeds were rustling among the half-hung and half-hidden leaves.

Pei Jing stepped into it and was stunned for a moment. He thought of the strange man in black clothes, with silver hair and bloodshot eyes, who was mysterious and unpredictable that night in Yunlan Mountains. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, who is he

Elder Lou was not a person who was particularly in charge of things on weekdays. Pei Jing walked past him without paying any attention. He went to the top floor alone. There were many rooms in the Tiange, and Pei Jing usually went to the innermost one. When he opened the door, the scene was still the same. There were thousands of books pouring down, magnificent and gorgeous. He walked to the center and found that Elder Lou had taken away all the pens and ink, leaving only a table. It was probably because he was irritated by him knocking over the ink bottle twice in a row, and his heart of pretending to be cultured was gone.

Pei Jing couldn't help laughing: "We should have withdrawn long ago."

He sat cross-legged in front of the table, stretched out his hand and drew a talisman in the air. In an instant, thousands of pieces of rice paper spun rapidly, and the one that belonged to him slowly stopped in front of him.

—How to return to nature

The last time he talked to that person, there were many more replies. Of course, most of them were nonsense.

—Return to the original state. Let me explain it to you. What it means is to remove the external decorations and restore the original simplicity. Maybe you can try streaking.

Soon he was scolded.

—What a bad idea, please don't mislead me. My master also told me that the term "return to nature" is mostly caused by the disturbance of the inner demons, and he wants you to abandon distracting thoughts.

When Pei Jing saw the second one, he curled his lips. Why did his master do the exact opposite, asking him to return to nature and create inner demons

Scrolling down, some people vaguely understood what he meant.

—According to the conversation between you and the first respondent, what you said about returning to nature and entering the world should be to experience the seven emotions and six desires and all kinds of flavors of life. In fact, it is very simple. Among the thirty-three heavens, the highest is the Heaven of Separation and Hatred. Among the four hundred and four diseases, lovesickness is the most unbearable. Daoist friend, find someone who is compatible with you and have a relationship with him. You can experience all kinds of emotions and you will definitely see through this world.

The author has something to say: "After looking at the thirty-three heavens, the Heaven of Separation and Sorrow is the highest; after suffering from the four hundred and four diseases, how can I endure the lovesickness?" - Zheng Guangzu

I... ..have exams tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so I'll keep my hair short today.

(I feel like I can't get full attendance, what's going on
