Gu Qingfeng didn't expect that his words would cause such a big misunderstanding among the sects.
Gu Qingfeng didn't take it seriously when Su Hua said that all the suzerains had gone back to discuss the matter, and that they were going to bring a large team over tomorrow.
Misunderstand it.
Let's talk tomorrow.
Afterwards, Gu Qingfeng, Zhen Ting and Zhen Yang walked towards the back mountain while chatting, mostly about matters related to their mentor Zhenjue.
"Gu boy, let him go about the past, and don't blame yourself too much for the past, what does my elder brother say, he has been pursuing and studying Buddhism all his life, and he has almost become enchanted, paying too much attention to it. Cause and effect, good and evil, compassionate, always worrying about the world's worries, speaking nicely, being selfless and fearless, speaking harshly, he is eating carrots and worrying lightly."
Zhenyang Jiuxian knew that Gu Qingfeng had always been brooding over the events of the past, and tried to persuade him along the way.
"In ancient times, it was not easy for everyone to live. There is no good and evil, let alone good and evil. Who can distinguish clearly? Even the Lord Buddha, the old man may not be able to distinguish what is really good and what is really evil. My senior brother is simply looking for trouble."
Looking at the silent Gu Qingfeng, Zhenyang Jiuxian continued: "Tell you the truth, boy, there is something that you probably don't know until now."
"whats the matter?"
"Back then when you were surrounded by various sects, my senior brother saved you. Firstly, maybe my senior brother was really merciful. Secondly, he also saw that you are not bad at heart, and you are a man who can be made." , and thirdly, and most importantly, my elder brother has deduced that your life should not die."
"That's why I ignored the opposition of the world and saved you kid. The reason why I accepted you as my disciple was because I really wanted to teach you kid. I want to trap you in the Shang Qingzong, so that even if you can't be educated, at least you won't go out and harm the world."
Gu Qingfeng just smiled and didn't say anything.
At this time.
Immortal Master Zhenting who had been silent all this time said: "Sirius, don't listen to my junior brother talking nonsense."
"Why am I talking nonsense?"
Immortal Master Zhenting ignored Zhenyang Jiuxian, but said to Gu Qingfeng: "Your master's ideological realm has long been profound, and it is beyond our comprehension. It's that simple, what we think about is the present, but the big brother thinks about the future, it's also cause and effect."
Gu Qingfeng nodded in agreement.
To be honest, Gu Qingfeng originally thought that, as Zhenyang Jiuxian said, the teacher really wanted to educate himself, but the more he experienced these years, the more Gu Qingfeng discovered that the teacher really didn't mean to educate himself , not even good and evil ever said.
During the nine years of Shang Qingzong, his teacher Zhenjue only explained to him the true meaning of two words, which is humanity.
It is the true meaning of the word "humanity" that has benefited Gu Qingfeng endlessly. Whether it is waking up from madness, or freely coming and going between immortals and demons, and even later aspiring to become the incarnation of Shura, it is all thanks to the true meaning of humanity that he can find back to self.
Not only that.
Gu Qingfeng knew that the former condensing of the Taiji Golden Elixir in the Northwest, and the later conception of the Vientiane Pagoda also benefited from the influence of the true meaning of humanity.
Gu Qingfeng still can't figure out why his teacher Zhenjue should explain the true meaning of humanity to himself.
Perhaps it is true as Master Zhenting said, what we think about is the present, but what our teacher really thinks is the future, which is also the so-called cause and effect.
If cause and effect.
What is the cause and effect.
This is also the real purpose of Gu Qingfeng's visit this time.
"Sirius, the doubts in your heart can't be answered by the old man, nor can Zhenyang. Only your master can answer them in the whole world."
"My master... really entered the Shangqing Pagoda?"
Immortal Master Zhenting nodded solemnly.
"Did the old man go in voluntarily, or was it related to Ye Tianlan?"
Immortal Master Zhenting shook his head and sighed, he didn't know if he didn't know, or there was something unspeakable.
But Gu Qingfeng didn't ask any more questions.
The three of them walked and chatted like this until late at night, and left this time.
That night.
The stars are bright and the moon is bright.
Gu Qingfeng wandered around the back mountain alone.
Compared with the foot of Shangqing Zongshan Mountain, the back mountain is much deserted, even in normal times, there are not many people coming.
Because the back mountain is either a place for graves, a place for the elderly, or a place for punishment... it is unlucky.
The reason why Gu Qingfeng wandered around the back mountain was because when he was practicing in the Shang Qingzong, he lived in the old age place in the back mountain.
The so-called place for the elderly, as the name suggests, is a place for the aged.
If the disciples of the Shang Qingzong went wrong in their cultivation, or lost their cultivation due to fighting, whether it was the collapse of their primordial spirit or the failure of crossing the tribulation, as long as they lost their cultivation, they would generally be placed here for the elderly.
Gu Qingfeng was a guilty person back then, so he was also placed in a place for the aged.
Generally speaking, no matter which sect almost has a place for the elderly, but those places for the elderly, without exception, are relatively poor. You are not bad, so don't expect to be surrounded by the spirit gathering array.
Of course.
The Shangqing sect is different. The old-age place in the back mountain of the Shangqing sect is relatively good. Almost every courtyard and every house is covered by a gathering spirit array. Not only is the aura full, but the climate is also suitable. Guarantee good health and no worries about food and clothing.
The people who retire here drink tea every day, play chess, and have nothing to do with the world, but they are very comfortable.
Gu Qingfeng found the courtyard where he lived back then, looked up, the courtyard seemed to be sealed, Gu Qingfeng walked over, broke the seal with a wave of his hand, walked in directly, the moment he pushed the door open, the memory of that year, like Like a flood that broke a bank, it erupted in the depths of my mind.
This is an ordinary yard with three houses, and there is a red leaf tree in the yard that he planted by himself back then.
The red leaf tree has long grown into a fiery red tree with lush branches and leaves more than ten meters high. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or something. The red leaf tree is full of red fruits. It’s nothing else. The red leaf demon fruit that I like to eat most when wandering around Yanling.
He was an orphan, he was born without father and mother, wandering in Chiyan Ridge since he was a child, eating red leaf demon fruit to satisfy his hunger, even if he left the Great Northwest later, he would take the seeds of red leaf demon fruit with him.
Back then when he planted this red leaf tree here, Gu Qingfeng wanted to remind himself all the time that when he was young, he could survive under the Chiyan Ridge where the mountains were full of tigers and wolves, and now he can also survive in this supernatant that is comparable to a dragon pool and a tiger den. Zong Nei survived.
