098. Alone (Part 2) (4/4)
"If you don't make it clear today, no matter how high your cultivation level is, don't blame me for being disrespectful to you." Lu Xueqi said to He Xu with a fierce look.
What a mess? I'm not your boyfriend, what's the point of explaining to you...
He Xu felt so slandered in his heart. He even regretted why he had to bring this girl with him, and even more regret why he was bored and wanted to talk nonsense with this stubborn woman.
In fact, he was acting alone with Lu Xueqi at this moment, not because of his position, and wanted to get close to the beauty. He just considered that he had some quarrels with her before, although he thought there was nothing wrong with him, but after all, considering that Lu Da Beauty would be the first person in Xiaozhu Peak in the future. Even though his cultivation was not as good as his, his identity was not even worse. Therefore, he took the opportunity to ease his relationship with her.
But even he didn't expect that this serious woman would have such a "out of line". She felt like the nerds who read stupidly in her previous life. Therefore, she couldn't help but be amused.
But since he was talking so hard, he could only continue to say, "Actually, I never considered things like 'Seeing the Way of Heaven'." He said, letting go of Lu Xueqi's hand. It was only then that Lu Xueqi realized that she couldn't help but turn red again. However, He Xu had turned around and missed her rare charming expression.
He only heard him say, "I remember that from the time when I practiced the truth, my biggest dream was to fly by myself. Back then, I saw my master's wife flying over my head, so I didn't even want to take the exam. I just wanted to follow my master's wife to practice the truth." He turned his head and smiled at Lu Xueqi, "You probably don't know. I was a scholar when I was very young. The gentleman who taught me to study also said that I will definitely be a juren in the future. Haha, so if I didn't enter the Qingyun Sect, I might be an official now... Well, it's not right. I may have been buried now. I am over 80, you can't tell."
Lu Xueqi couldn't help feeling strange when she listened to He Xu's words. But even she couldn't deny that when the man was talking in such a homely tone, her mood actually felt a different kind of relaxation, and it was rare to have a thought to listen to him before talking.
So her face calmed down and she said softly unconsciously: "Senior Brother He has a profound Taoist practice. Even if he has hundreds of years, his appearance may not change. Besides, we are a cultivator, and our age is just a number. Only the depth of cultivation is the most important foundation."
"What you said is right, not all." He Xu smiled without objection, "Do you know why I asked you what the 'Heaven' looks like before?"
Lu Xueqi shook her head.
"Because I don't know either."
Lu Xueqi was stunned.
"Don't be surprised." He Xu looked at it for granted, "No one knew the answer before asking the question. On the contrary, if you still ask if you know, then it is not called "question", it should be called "test".
He smiled at Lu Xueqi again: "I always felt that cultivating truth and qi is not necessarily for the purpose of 'heaven'. What is the way of heaven? If as you said, when Master Zhenyu was dying, he said that he had "great enlightenment" by himself, he was "enlightened to enlightenment". Then I tell you that you don't need to cultivate truth at all. Just find a temple to become a monk, or read more classics about 'reincarnation' and 'transcendence' at home, and you will have the chance to achieve great enlightenment. And you definitely don't need to be as hard as you are now. So when I heard you say that Master Zhenyu's "great enlightenment", I thought to myself: 80% of you did not realize the 'heaven', but most of you have realized the liberation of 'life and death'."
When Lu Xueqi heard this, she couldn't help but interrogate: "Then what is the 'how of heaven'?"
"Didn't I just said. 'I don't know'." He Xu shrugged, but still said, "But although I don't understand the 'the way of heaven', if I want me to live as tired as you for the 'the way of heaven', I will definitely not do it. In fact, you might as well take the mood a little more relaxed and don't take the 'the way of heaven' too seriously. Otherwise, the Qingye Patriarch is powerful enough, right? Over the past thousand years, even the people of the Demon Cult dare not insult him. But isn't he the same 'eternal'? You have such a good qualification, but do you dare to say that you are more powerful than Qingye Patriarch? You definitely don't dare. I don't dare either. So there is no need to force yourself so tightly. You have to practice cultivation, and life must be lived? You can't really become immortal one day, and when you look back, you think... Oh, why do I have to do nothing except cultivation in my life?"
Lu Xueqi was amused by He Xu. This laughter was so beautiful that it shone brightly; this beauty seemed to contain the power of "dawnbreak". Even in such a chaos before dawn, it had already bloomed proudly, and nothing could stop it. So much so that He Xu also felt a little dazed at this moment: this little girl is so beautiful.
When Lu Xueqi smiled, she might have felt that she had let go a lot, and asked in a rare relaxed tone: "Then, according to what you said, why are we still practicing? It's not that good to be like a mortal."
"That's different." He Xu shook his head, "It's still very good to cultivate the truth. You think we couldn't fly, but now we can fly by ourselves. It's so easy to save trouble. We could only live for a few decades, but now we can not only live for hundreds of years, but also know a little about maintaining the beauty. Maybe we still look young until we are in the middle of the feather. Just say you, if you are so beautiful, if you don't cultivate the truth, you will probably become Old Lady Lu in a few decades, which would be a big pity."
Lu Xueqi couldn't help but spat and said angrily: "What are Senior Brother He saying?"
He Xu felt very embarrassed.
He didn't expect that he would speak quickly and pick up the way he used to tease girls in his previous life. However, such words could certainly be regarded as politeness or even a necessary social skill at that time. But here, especially when he said it in front of Lu Xueqi, who was not very familiar with him, it would be a bit frivolous.
Fortunately, He Daxia was very thick-skinned. He was stunned and immediately did not know what to do, saying, "So, cultivation is cultivation, life is life. Why do you say that... Yes, 'Get both hands, both hands must be hard'. Hi, don't laugh. I'm talking serious."
Lu Xueqi was so funny by He Xu. In fact, what she didn't expect was that she would be so funny by this guy who had always made her "rent" her.
After a while, she finally smiled enough, but the frost on her face could no longer be piled up.
It was also at this time that He Xu said, "Actually, I intend to arrange for Junior Sister Lu to accompany me. First, I want to rely on the power of my junior sister's magic sword. Second, I want to sue my junior sister." He said, bowing, "Brother Yu had been very strict with his junior sister in his words. But first, he was straightforward, and second, he was not against others. So I hope my junior sister can forgive me." After saying that, he bowed.
Lu Xueqi was stunned and quickly returned the courtesy: "Senior Brother He is so serious. My younger sister has been practicing since childhood, and she is inevitably quite inappropriate in human relationships. If she offended her, I hope that her senior brother will forgive her."
In fact, both of them were a little disliked each other before. But after some communication, their impression of each other changed a little. He Xu didn't know how Lu Xueqi looked at him, but at least he now felt that this little girl was not looking at people from the bottom of her eyes, well, it would be better to be with a little expression.
