55. The Path to Rebirth (Part 2)(1/2)
"You stay here and you will starve to death."
The north wind was howling, the snow fell on the ground, and the little girl wearing a cotton jacket and tied her head was handing a dry and hard steamed bun to the young man who was lying in the grass in front of her, with a pale face and a thin skin that would starve to death.
In her eyes, there was a light of pity and sorrow, she said:
"Master has visited the village. There are no living people in the village. If you continue to stay here, you will starve to death. I have told Master that you should follow us."
Chen Qiu looked at the steamed buns handed to him in front of him.
This was his first meeting with Qingqing.
No.
That's inaccurate.
It should be the first time that "Chen Qiu" and Qingqing met.
"This world attracts you, it's a bit interesting."
Chen Qiu turned into a starving boy, who was about to die of starvation, completely ignored the dissuasion from Hongchen Jun, and reached out to take the cold-cold steamed bun in front of him.
Qingqing's little face, which was red from the cold, also had a happy smile.
The picture stagnates, and the world in front of you is broken.
This scene is over.
It's time for the next scene.
In the Taihang Mountains, Lu Buji took Chen Qiu and Qingqing out of the collapsed tomb. In the dark night facing them, they were greeted by the fully armed black-clothed guards in the North.
They have set up an ambush here, which is a carefully crafted trap after being betrayed.
The white-haired and white-bearded master held two axes in his hand to block the enemy for his two disciples. While fighting to the death, he shouted that Chen Qiu and Qingqing would run away quickly.
He will die.
He knows.
But he did not hesitate and gave the opportunity to live to his disciples.
"Are you sure you want to escape?"
Hongchen Jun's voice, like a voice-over, rang in Shen Qiu's ears, and he said:
"Maybe you should stay and help him. Maybe with your help, he can survive. After all, you are no longer the weak you in the past.
Your combat experience is already extremely rich, and it is not difficult to find a way out with this weak body.
Are you sure you want to escape like a coward?"
Chen Qiu ignored it.
Just like the initial choice made by Taoist Ziwei in the world, he picked up the crying Qingqing, fled in the night, riding a horse and chasing away from this sad night.
The attack that should have been seriously injured was also easily avoided by him with his rich combat experience.
"Maybe, I can really try to save Lu Bugui?"
This thought flashed through Shen Qiu's mind.
It's like a choice in front of you.
Want to save it?
If you save yourself, your life will change its course and regrets can be filled.
This hesitation will be extinguished in the next moment.
He rode his horse and hugged Qingqing, and disappeared firmly in the dark night, leaving Lu Bugui alone in the dead night behind him.
The picture is frozen at this moment.
"You are really a strait-hearted person."
Hongchenjun said:
"But once a step-by-step re-working is impossible to solve the world's inspiration. The so-called world's inquiries, dare not face the past, and cannot transcend oneself, so we cannot find that opportunity to win.
I am used to being stubborn and unrepentant. That is the nature of all living beings. Even a thousand years ago, those real big men would still keep pace with this world.
If you think that sticking to yourself can break the illusion!
wrong.
A big mistake.
You must make a choice, Chen Qiu.
If you don’t even dare to take the first step of the world’s heart, how can you reach the end?
You have experienced so much, is it just to repeat the same mistakes?
Or do you think you really have no regrets in the life you have experienced?
Haha, I don’t believe it!
Let's wait and see."
Chen Qiu remained silent and did not respond.
The light and shadow flow, and the next scene begins, it is still in Taihang Mountains, and he wants to ask for help from the mountain ghosts.
Then there was the city of Suzhou, who picked up the seven stars to Shake the Light for the plundered Qingqing.
In Suzhou, there was a dispute between good and evil, and the wind and clouds were surging.
In the land of Qilu, the right and wrong villages competed with the northern country, and the hero died.
In the bitter and cold land of Liaodong, I entered the secret realm of the immortal family and fought to the death with Donglingjun.
Luoyang night fire protects the safety of a city, but he loses his elders and friends again.
In the decisive battle in Jinling, the Demon Sect was destroyed, and Ren Hao died in battle. He betrayed the right path and achieved a bad reputation in the world.
The ruins of Taihang are forever, and they are in love with immortals.
Walking alone for thousands of miles, walking on the left-right things, and overwhelming all living beings in the world.
Return to Qilu again, use the Yin soldiers to defeat the barbarians, come to this evil formation of all spirits, and face the Immortal Lord of the Red Dust.
At this point in life, all unforgettable stories of experience emerge in this picture, allowing Chen Qiu to come back again, as if to reveal the regrets hidden in his heart.
It's like a canvas painted in various colors, and there are always some notes that are ugly and ugly.
If you want to make everything perfect, those ugly handwritings have to be modified to get better gradually.
After one round, Chen Qiu returned to the beginning, in the Yanjiao village.
He walked in the cold north wind in a worn cotton jacket and cotton pants, and walked towards his long forgotten home.
I already have an enlightenment in my heart.
"This is a maze built by memories. Different choices will present different ways of going forward in the maze. Countless bifurcations will expand the scope of the maze infinitely.
To be stubborn in choosing a certain life is to take a clear path, go around in circles at the end, and then return to the entrance of the maze.
The so-called worldly guide.
It's a text adventure game.
Each node has several choices. Different choices will determine the different directions of the story, and then pile up the results of countless choices, which will eventually change the established destiny."
Thinking of this, the moment he raised his head, he saw Zhang Moye appearing on the roadside in front of him.
That was the first choice.
"The twenty-year period has arrived, and this immortal fate that others cannot ask for is ultimately the one who is not worthy of."
Zhang Moye handed him Jianyu.
He said the words in his memory again, but before the world was finished, he was interrupted by Chen Qiu. He stretched out his dirty hand and stuffed the sword jade handed to his palm back into Zhang Moye's hand.
He raised his head, looked at the shocked leader of the Demon Sect in front of him, and said:
"This thing is too expensive, I can't ask for it. You can take it back, I don't want it anymore."
“But it’s yours”
Zhang Moye was surprised. He wanted to continue handing Jian Yu, but Chen Qiu ignored him and continued to hold his hands and head to the village home in the cold wind. He said without looking back:
"I gave up and just wanted to live a quiet and stable life for ordinary people. Now it's yours."
Zhang Moye's expression was a bit strange.
A hint of relief appeared on his face, and it seemed to be filled with joy. He looked at Chen Qiu, who was walking in front of him, pursed his lips, chased him and said:
"Since my little brother doesn't want this, I'll compensate you for the others. Tell me, what do you want?"
Chen Qiu pursed his lips.
He glanced at Zhang Moye, thought about it again, asked for some gold and silver, and asked him to buy a large mansion for the Shen family in Yanjing City. The family was surprised and moved into the courtyard to start a new life.
Time changes rapidly, ten years later.
