The world was finally quiet, and Bai Yang felt that the sunshine seemed to be much brighter. In fact, no matter who it was, if there was always a talkative person around him who kept beeping like a machine gun, he would probably go crazy.
Speaking of sunshine, Bai Yang realized that time had passed unknowingly and it was almost evening, but the so-called third test of Tianyin Sect had not yet arrived.
Although it is almost evening, a day in this world is very long. Even in winter, there are still a few hours before dark.
Seeing the quiet mountains surrounded by clouds and fog, Bai Yang really couldn't figure out what the Tianyin Sect was doing.
He came to borrow the Tianyin Bell and went through the so-called assessment inexplicably. At this time, Bai Yang felt as if he had entered the wrong set. He wanted to directly visit the Tianyin Sect's senior officials, but he had to have others take care of him.
"No, it seems that I have overlooked something..."
A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, but Bai Yang didn't catch it. He frowned and pondered. He always felt that if he caught the key point in his mind, he might be able to easily solve the problem of borrowing the Tianyin Bell.
But I can't remember it.
This situation will happen to many people. It is clear that a certain issue is very important and they know it, but they just can't remember it. It can make people anxious to death. At this time, Bai Yang has this situation.
Bai Yang couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time, so he simply stopped thinking about it, maybe he would think of it inadvertently.
Inexplicably, Bai Yang felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He looked up and looked around. Yugi was shocked. He found that there seemed to be something wrong with several people around him.
For example, the Ninth Prince who was in the pavilion was holding a wine bottle and had forgotten to drink. His eyes were a little dazed, and his thoughts were wandering to nowhere.
Another example is the guy standing on the water, who is completely out of state, his eyelashes are closed and his eyelashes are trembling, and he doesn't even know one of his feet is in the water. Another example is the guy who was playing with the leaves, and now he is frowning.
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing each of them looking distracted, Bai Yang was a little confused about the situation. Could it be that something happened that he didn't know about when he was thinking about the problem before
"The chicken came first. That must be the case. The chicken can lay eggs. But that's not right. Chickens come out of eggs. Without eggs, there is no chicken. But where do eggs come from? Chickens lay eggs..."
The green-robed young man muttered, gesticulating with the ten fingers of his hands, and his eyes were distracted, as if he was trapped in a demon.
Seeing the young man in green robe like this, Bai Yang probably understood that something was wrong with Mao Mao.
Damn it, all the promising young people are struggling with the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg. Are you going to be so boring
Bai Yang was a little dumbfounded, and thought to himself, these guys should not get carried away because of this unanswered question, otherwise they would be guilty of a big crime.
In this weird atmosphere, someone came down from the quiet mountain.
What came down was a woman in fluttering white clothes, who came through the air, her face covered with white gauze, and she had a great master level cultivation.
When she came here, she also noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but she did not hesitate. After taking a strange look, she took out a piece of white paper and threw it lightly into the pavilion, floating in the air.
After throwing out the white paper, she said: "Gentlemen, this is the third level. If anyone can understand its meaning, you can go up the mountain. If you really don't understand, just leave by yourself."
After saying that, she looked here strangely again, turned around and left, disappearing deep into the clouds on the mountain.
It was not until this moment that the few young people who were entangled around them reacted belatedly. They were completely out of state and subconsciously looked at the white paper floating in the pavilion.
The white paper is very ordinary. It must be able to float in the air because of some kind of means. This is not the point. The key point is the content on the white paper.
There is only one word on it, and it is obviously written by a woman's hand. It is delicate and graceful. There is a saying among literati that seeing words is like seeing people. Just from the word on the white paper, you can tell that the person who wrote it must be a Huizhi. Lan Xin's woman.
That word was written in the Tianyuan Empire script, the universal language of this world, with the word 'water' in the middle.
There is nothing else and no hints.
"The word water? Is this the third level created by the Tianyin Sect? You want to understand its meaning before going up the mountain without any prerequisites. Isn't this deceiving? You don't know what it means without any hints. , it’s not you who has the final say on what exactly it means?”
Seeing the blank paper, Bai Yang murmured in his heart, this is just like the unscrupulous company on the other side of the earth saying, "The final right of interpretation belongs to us." That's the same.
"The word water? It's interesting. Is Tianyin Sect playing word games?" The young man in white who was playing with leaves stopped and his eyes flickered in thought.
However, looking at the word "water", his eyes seemed to be in a trance, and he seemed to be out of state, and his thoughts were wandering to nowhere.
The others were the same as him. Although they were paying attention to the word "water", they were obviously a little absent-minded.
"Water, what else can it mean? It nourishes all living things? Or does water flow to lower places? Or is water so soft that it can accommodate all things? Water, which came first, the water or the chicken? No, it's the existing one The chicken still has the egg first, and then the water... "
The young man in green robe looked at the piece of paper and muttered, but it was all messed up.
Bai Yang was very melancholy. He felt that these young people were probably hopeless. You were so entangled in the chicken-and-egg problem that you didn't even focus on the assessment
In the end, don't blame me if you fail to pass the assessment...
Somewhat speechless, Bai Yang did not study the egg problem boringly and carefully thought about the meaning of the word.
"What else can water mean? Water is water. There are countless things and phenomena that water can mean. How can we guess the other party's intention in asking the question?"
Bai Yang had no clue when thinking about this word.
At the same time, Bai Yang also thought a lot, such as water can nourish all things, such as water can wash away dirt, such as water can moisturize things silently when it is soft, but destroy everything when it is violent.
However, I believe you are evil. The devil knows what your Tianyin Sect means.
Glancing around, those guys were completely out of shape. They were probably still wrestling with the chicken-and-egg problem and couldn't get any inspiration from them.
Yes, you have to figure it out yourself.
"In short, water is water, but water has three forms, gas, liquid and solid. However, is this related to the meaning of the Tianyin Sect's question?"
After thinking for a long time, Bai Yang couldn't figure it out. Bai Yang felt that he must have fallen into some misunderstanding. He shook his head to put away the distracting thoughts in his mind. He began to look at the piece of paper seriously again.
The white paper is ordinary, and the words on it are definitely written by a girl, so where should we start from this aspect
In this way, Bai Yang thought a lot, why did the woman who wrote this character write this character when there were so many other characters in the world
"The word water, the word water, water..."
Bai Yang pondered in his mind, and gradually, Bai Yang felt a little confused when he looked at that word.
"Something's wrong. I seem to have seen this word somewhere. It's not the word, but the handwriting used to write it..."
This idea suddenly popped into his mind. Bai Yang was confused for a moment, and then a smile gradually appeared on his face. It turned out to be this, that's what it meant.
Bai Yang has seen this word before, it should be said that it is the handwriting used to write this word. The difference is that the word now is more ethereal than when he saw it before, as if it is about to fly out of the paper and turn into a cloud and fly away with the wind.
"It turns out it's you. Just like what I said when we parted, all separation in the world is a reunion after a long separation. It's really wonderful to meet you here unexpectedly. Destinations come and go, and fate comes and goes. The fate of the world is really wonderful."
Looking up at the mountain peaks shrouded in clouds and mist, Bai Yang thought to himself.
He already knew who wrote this word, but he didn't know why the other person traveled across thousands of mountains and rivers to come to Tianyin Sect and became a close disciple of the head of Tianyin Sect.
Now that we know who wrote the word, it is not difficult at all to guess the other person's intention from the word.
"It seems that you have not really let go of the past. Maybe the word "water" is a word you wrote casually, but water can wash away all the filth in the world, because you still care about those things subconsciously, but what you want to express at this time But it’s not because water can wash away dirt…”
Talking to himself, Bai Yang looked at the word "water" again and fully understood what it meant.
At this moment, an idea flashed through Bai Yang's head, and he caught the fleeting thought that had appeared in his mind before. He patted his forehead and Bai Yang smiled bitterly.
Bai Yun is from the Tianyin Sect. When Bai Yun was in the forbidden area of the Blood Lotus Sect, didn't she say that she was from the Tianyin Sect? No wonder she said that she could destroy the Blood Lotus Sect at any time, but now it seems , considering the strength of the Tianyin Sect, the Blood Lotus Sect is really not that powerful.
Bai Yang still remembered that when the Blood Lotus Sect was wiped out and they were separated, Bai Yun said that she would treat Bai Yang well when he came to the Tianyin Sect as a guest.
"In that case, the familiar figure who helped the kittens and the others before should be Bai Yun. I'm just saying how can such a good thing happen? That's it!"
After understanding this, many doubts in Bai Yang's mind were easily solved.
The person who helped Mao Mao and the others was Bai Yun in the forbidden area of the Blood Lotus Sect. She had returned to the Tianyin Sect and had a close relationship with the senior figures in the Tianyin Sect. And it was because of herself that she was able to escape from the Blood Lotus Sect. She will help Mao Mao and the others, so maybe it’s because of her that the painting outside Tianyin Sect’s mountain gate caused thunder and lightning, and that’s why the higher-ups of Tianyin Sect will help her!
I figured it out, but Bai Yang was stuck in a dilemma.
Should I visit Bai Yun first to discuss whether I can borrow the Tianyin Bell, or should I go see an old friend
"Let's go see our old friend first. It's rare to have a close friend in life. Although she is now a close disciple of the head of Tianyin Sect, it can be seen from that word that she is not happy. Maybe she should be happy to see her old friend..."
With a calculation in his mind, Bai Yang jumped up and flew towards the mountains.
"Which came first, the water or the chicken? No, why did that person get up there? Oh, we were fooled. He deliberately used a difficult problem to numb our thoughts. This person is so bad. I have to figure out the meaning of water first. Go up and question him, you can't be like this as a human being, well, water comes first... No, the meaning of water... "
After Bai Yang left, the young man in green robe was dumbfounded, feeling that he and others had been tricked by Bai Yang...
