Nightfall Chapter 177: Goodbye Suzaku


Volume One Early Morning Empire Chapter 177 Goodbye Suzaku

The small courtyard was quiet. After a long time, Senior Sister Seven suddenly let out a sneer. After the laughter, she did not speak. Instead, she picked pine nuts, peeled and blown off the handkerchief, and sorted them out. Pass it to the third sister next to the couch.

The second brother frowned slightly, looked at her and asked, "Little sister, what are you laughing at?"

Senior Sister Seven threw the pine nuts into her lips, chewed slowly for a moment, and patted her hands at will. She raised her eyebrows slightly and met his gaze without fear, and said: "Second brother really can't lie? That night at Ya Ya Who is the one who cheated Prince Longqing?"

After being silent for a moment, the second brother replied slowly: "Is cheating... and lying?"

"I said pull it down."

Chen Pippi looked at Senior Sister Seven and said with anger, "Who doesn’t know the disposition of Senior Brother Second? He said that he can’t lie, but he can’t lie. I asked him for help that night, and his words didn’t count. False, you didn’t see how nervous the second brother was at the time, his facial expression was quite calm, but the hard rocks under the tree were all crushed into powder by him."

"Looking on the second brother to increase Ning Que's confidence? That thief and thief can see through at a glance!"

Four senior brothers said: "The so-called confidence is always too cryptic. He can't practice the Haoran sword. We should start with specific methods. The flying sword's operating curve is easy to calculate, and the air resistance is between the flying sword speed. Although the relationship between Ningque and Mathematics is more complicated, it is not impossible to figure it out. Ningque Mathematics is so good, so he should be better understood by teaching him."

"No matter how you count, teach, or do, there is no way to solve the most fundamental problem of the little junior brother. That is, he has only ten orifices in the snow-capped mountains, and the power of the world that can be controlled is too weak. If you can't solve this The problem is that even if the teacher and the big brother go home, it does not make sense to use magical means to help the younger junior brother to reach the realm of mindfulness, because he will be the weakest mindfulness in the world."

The second brother was silent for a while and looked at the fourth brother who had spoken earlier, and said: "You and the sixth brother first fix those weird things for him. If you don't work, you have to pay more attention to the help of foreign objects."

Senior Brother Jiu suddenly shook his head and said, "I said that I should let the younger brother follow me and Simon to learn to play flute and piano, so that I might have a way of making a living after I leave the college."

Senior Brother Eleven smiled slightly, and said quietly: "Little Junior Brother has often asked me about the knowledge of things. In my opinion, let him learn from me. This will help his mood."

Senior Sister Seven grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the window sill, lowered her head and picked up the fullest melon seeds, and said with a slight mockery: "Eleventh Junior Brother, follow you to learn these useless things. What if the younger Junior Brother starves to death in the future? "

Senior Brother Eleven looked at her and explained earnestly: "Little Sister, my family is a rich man in the south. In the future, I will inherit a large family business. Even if the younger brother is a useless person, I will have no problem raising him for the rest of my life." /

At this time, the meeting to help the younger brother Ning Que started, the topic gradually did not know which direction it was going. Everyone in the room was chattering, making suggestions, enthusiastic discussions, intense debates, and deeply concerned about the future livelihood issues of the younger brothers. Said that he could be responsible for the life of the younger brothers, and the fellowship of fist and fist made them all moved.

"Brothers and sisters, do you think too much?" Chen Pipi looked at the people in the house eating melon seeds and drinking tea and having a tea party, rubbed the back of his head, and said with anguish: "What kind of person is Ning Que? , I know better than you. Although he is a little idiot in practice, he is definitely not a real idiot. Didn’t it happen to you, since he entered the back mountain, all of us have been around him? People like this, Why do we need to worry so much for him? I dare say that everyone in the world is dead, including all of us in the house, and he won't die, let alone starve to death?"

Listening to this, everyone on the second floor of the college was stunned. Thinking of the experience these days, the expressions on their faces became extremely exciting. Beigong Weiyang frowned and said, "That's true. When I want to listen to the song, I went into the woods and played a song with the two of us. When I didn't want to listen, I resolutely refused to listen. How do I feel about myself? Become a singer in front of him?"

The fifth brother patted his thigh, shook his head and said with emotion: "He said that he would play chess. It was obvious that the eighth brother and I had just entered the middle of the game, so he dared to intervene, and we had to suppress our temper, otherwise he I really dared to throw away the chess pieces, in front of the younger brother...We are just inexperienced Othello teachers from two rural chess clubs."

Six brothers looked at the thoughtful people and said with a simple smile: "Ning Que treats me well. Although he often has some inexplicable ideas, he often helps me strike iron and carry water, which saves me a lot of things."

The second brother looked at the brothers who were complaining about the history of blood and tears, and raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Ning Que is the youngest brother, you guys take care of him for granted, what is there to say about these things?"

Listening to the second brother's admonition, looking at him with a serious expression, everyone in the room was horrified at the same time, and they bowed their heads in response. Even the Seventh Sister, who had been acting casually and loosely before, put the melon seeds back on the windowsill.

"Although I look down on Yan Se's mentality in the game world, I must admit that, as the South Gate of Haotian, he is indeed the world's superb or even the most powerful runemaster, better than the world imagined. Be strong."

The second brother's eyes drooped slightly, looking somewhere in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he continued to say in a deep voice: "Since the younger brother is so talented, he is only suitable for the path of Talisman, let him learn more from Yan Se in the future. Right."

The house is quiet.

Senior Sister Seven raised her head, frowning her eyebrows slightly and said: "But Junior Brother is a second-floor person in my college after all. Now he is regarded as a closed disciple of the teacher. As a result, all his cultivation bases were taught by outsiders. Why is this spread out? Even if we are not afraid of gossip in the world, will teachers and big brothers come back, will they be disappointed with us?"

……

……

I don’t know that the Master took the big disciple to end the tour and returned to the academy, and found that he was more inexplicably a closed disciple who only had the realm of no confusion and had extremely poor aptitude for cultivation, and the only skill this disciple could learn from Haotian Dao After Fudao means, will you feel deeply disappointed? Anyway, Ning Que didn’t feel disappointed. Although Haoran Sword was still practicing like snow masking dog shit, his mentality had been adjusted extremely well, and these days, apart from studying in the back mountains of the academy, he would do it every few days. Traveling around Chang'an City with Master Yan Se, approaching Rune Avenue in a relaxed and interesting way, the journey is very fulfilling.

In those days in the late spring and early summer of the fourteenth year of the Apocalypse, residents of Chang'an City often saw an extremely dirty old Taoist wandering around with a simple but extremely clean boy.

Old Taoists and young people walk through the streets and alleys, to see the old and ruined buildings that have been passed down for hundreds of years, to drink in various taverns, occasionally to the cheapest open-door prostitutes, and more often to see those A must-visit scenery for tourists.

Walking through the renovated block of Chunfeng Pavilion, Yan Se was full of emotion and said: "New is new, but all the original meanings are lost. Fortunately, there is still this pavilion, you see Isn’t the pavilion curvy?"

Ning Que walked through the streets where he had been fighting for a night, looking at the old spring breeze pavilion on the corner of the street, a little lost, he woke up after hearing the master's words, and looked at the four lines slightly protruding above the pavilion. After a long time of taste, he asked in confusion: "I can't tell what beauty is, I just think it looks very coordinated. The intersection of Uva sinks slightly and then rises, very smooth."

"That's the rain line." Master Yan Se pointed to the eaves line and said: "The rain falls on the Uwa and flows downwards along the overlap of the tiles. It does not pass the rain line, but the rain line. The shape of the elbow, but it is dark and slippery, so you will feel smooth."

"Master, what does the rain line on the eaves of the pavilion show?" Ning Que asked, "This pavilion should have been repaired many years ago. Those craftsmen can't be Talismans if they think about it. Can they also understand the laws of the vitality of heaven and earth? ?"

"What is the law? The law is the certain rule of the operation of things. The craftsmen who built the Chunfeng Pavilion may not have mastered the law of the vitality of the heavens and the earth, but the knowledge of building rain eaves has been passed down through countless generations, and there is indeed a certain wisdom hidden in it."

Master Yan Se took him to the pavilion and said, "How would you walk when the rain fell? Why would you walk like this? The craftsmen who built the pavilion didn’t know, maybe their ancestors only knew the answer to the first question. , I don’t know the answer to the second question, but what does it matter? The first step for human beings to learn from heaven and earth is always imitating. "If you imitate too much, it will be like this rain canopy. Practice the simplest principle, which is the undulating shape of the line. "

Walking under the Spring Breeze Pavilion, Master Yan Se turned around and looked at Ning Que and said, "The first step in practicing Talisman is to imitate. I will show you the rune books left by the former sage. I will let you A careful understanding of the nuances between the vitality of the world and the earth is very similar to the architectural experience accumulated by the craftsmen over the years, but they are subconsciously done, and it takes several generations of time, but you have to take the initiative to master the experience, and this The less time the better."

After watching the Chunfeng Pavilion, the master and apprentice left the streets and walked far away along the gray wall next to the compound.

Stepping on the slightly protruding bluestone road and watching the gurgling water not far from his feet, Ning Que naturally remembered that rainy night. The water ditch was once stained red with blood, and these bluestone slabs The road was full of mutilated bodies.

Behind the gray wall, it was convenient to face Xiaoshu’s mansion. Ning Que looked up and saw that the green trees in the courtyard were hidden, and there were occasional voices. I wondered if Chao Xiaoshu’s family still lives here. , And where did he go?

As if guessing what he was thinking, Master Yan Se, who was walking in front of his sleeves, smiled and asked: "Looking at Pinghu from the tree and knowing fate, this kind of savvy opportunity is really rare. The talent of the tree, if it were not forcibly pressed by your Majesty in the dark mud of Chang'an City for many years, it would be impossible to burst out such a brilliant brilliance at once."

This is the first time Ning Que knows that Chao Xiaoshu is a major practitioner in the realm of life-consciousness. He thought about the scene of a **** fight with the middle-aged man behind him that rainy night, his eyebrows raised slowly, and his heart There is an indescribable feeling of pride and grandeur.

"You should have seen Chao Xiaoshu's swordsmanship."

"Yes, master."

"What do you think is special?"

"Soon, like lightning."

Ning Que thought of the crooked and crooked wooden sword at the back of the college, feeling very ashamed.

Master Yan Se smiled at him and said, "Anything else?"

Ning Que remembered one thing, but he licked his lips and did not say it, because although Yan Se was his master on the rune, it was most likely a life-saving ability to press against the bottom of the small tree. Such things should not be said to anyone.

"I don't see that you are still a man of love and righteousness." Master Yan Se gave him a surprised look.

Ning Que smiled and replied: "Brother Chao treated me well. After leaving Chang'an City, he still thinks about my livelihood. He saves me a lot of money every month, even if the love is not heavy, the money is piled up. Together is heavy enough."

Yan Se laughed and said, "A sword turned into five swords at the little tree. I don’t need you to tell me about this matter. I mentioned this matter just to tell you that when those five sword pieces are like shooting stars. When he was walking around the streets, have you ever wondered, if it is his natal sword, why can he still listen to his commands after being divided into five parts?"

Ning Que really didn’t think about this question. After the **** battle last spring, he didn’t think about it because he didn’t understand what practice is at that time. The reason why he didn’t think about it later was because he didn’t think about it at all. The problem. Until this time, he turned away from Chunfeng Pavilion and walked towards the street, and suddenly heard the master's question, he suddenly fell into thought.

Master Yan Se is not a teacher who likes to use all kinds of problems to make his students difficult, and then gains a sense of superiority, vanity and sadistic pleasure from them. He glanced at Ning Que frowned and thought hard, and directly Explained: "The Chao Xiaoshu’s natal sword is divided into five small swords. The connection and interaction between these five small swords rely on a kind of formation... and I told you before, but all formations are actually It can be seen as a deformed talisman, a big talisman that is more dependent on materials."

Then he continued: "Taoist swordsmanship is a talisman, and Buddhist mudra is also a talisman, and these two types of talisman are infinitive. As for the decorations on the armor of the general’s hundred wars, although they are mostly fragments, they are also talisman. This kind of symbol is a fixed form."

Ning Que glanced at him and couldn't help but smile and said: "Master, I know you are the most powerful rune master in the world. I know that every rune master should have the deepest and sincere heart for Fu Dao. His feelings and love are just... If you say it like this, wouldn’t all the practices in the world be attributed to the talisman? This kind of argument is really...too much, right?"

Master Yan Se stopped, turned around and asked in confusion: "What is too much? What is too much?"

After Ning Que hesitated for a while, he lowered his voice and said, "Too narcissistic."

Master Yan Se laughed loudly, attracting the attention of pedestrians in the streets.

The laughter subsided. He watched Ning Que stay silent for a moment and said seriously: "The first focus of practice is to dare to think and recognize. The long road is long. If you don't believe that you can go to the end, how can you walk the path of practice? Those difficult and strange peaks? The more excellent the practitioners, the more confident they are, and the best practitioners are bound to be confident to an extremely exaggerated state, which is probably what you call narcissism."

Ning Que opened her mouth slightly, unable to speak for a long time. He wanted to slander the master. The words said were perverted. But after careful consideration, they found these words to be very reasonable, especially when they thought of the second brother of the college and Chen Pipi. These two extremely narcissistic and proud guys.

……

……

Leaving the Spring Breeze Pavilion, passing through Shan Mo Fang from the East City, the two masters and apprentices came to a wide open road. Not far away, the Yulin Army was patrolling on horses. There were a lot less pedestrians on the street, and the green trees beside the clear river , The environment is quiet. The majestic imperial city not far away is clearly visible to the naked eye, and it even seems to be able to see the slight traces washed out by wind and rain on the Zhu Wall.

Master Yan Se was completely unaffected by the solemn and solemn atmosphere of this place. He still wandered slowly in the street with his sleeves and old shoes, and didn't care about the vigilant and disgusting gazes cast by the Yulin Army knights.

Ning Que followed him with a strong smile, and suddenly remembered the part about armor engraving in the previous conversation, and also wanted some introduction of the old man Lu Qingchen during the trip last year. His eyes suddenly brightened. Walking to the side of Master Yan Se, he said in a very respectful and gentle tone: "Master, I want to ask you for a charm."

Yan Se turned her head and asked: "Qiufu? What happened to your house? I saw something dirty, and I was pressed into the bed?"

Ning Que opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer, feeling very weak.

Master Yan Se's triangular eyes narrowed wretchedly, and said, "Just kidding."

Ning Que sighed and said seriously: "I want to carve a talisman on my knife."

Master Yan Se thought for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Some runes can indeed be used alone without the talisman, such as handing down books such as armors and weapons. This kind of engraving method is not uncommon, but after all, it is only the last word. , Is not pure enough, and the power is not too great. The so-called own is the best. If it is your personal weapon, it is better for you to keep yourself in the future."

Ning Que said with a wry smile: "Then I don't know in which month and year will I get what I want."

Master Yan Se patted him on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "I firmly believe in your talent on the rune. Now it's just that you haven't been able to see through the window paper. Slowly understand, you will find hope. Always in front."

"Look over there carefully."

"What's over there?"

"Watch for yourself."

"Master, I only saw a lot of trees."

"What is behind the tree?"

"Behind the tree is the sky."

"I don't want you to see these things!"

"Master, you don't want me to say that I saw hope, right?"

"I really can't say such a sour thing."

"Master, why don’t you speak anymore? Actually, in my opinion, you are looking at the world of pink powder as a bone but you want to touch two of them. It’s really inappropriate to play the role of spiritual teacher. ."

"Ning Que."

"Yes, Master."

"If you go on, I will use cursive characters to make you invisible for a lifetime."

There is no hope in front of the master and apprentice, only a Taoist temple in the green forest at the foot of the imperial city.

Master Yan Se did not bring Ning Que into the South Gate View, because the two are personal mentors and apprentices. After all, Ning Que is an academy student and walks too close to Haotian Road. From any angle, it is very inappropriate. Things.

"What I showed you is the cornice of the South Gate Tourism Ming Palace."

Because of the previous conversation, Master Yan Se's face was ugly and his tone was very blunt.

Ning Que looked up and saw behind the gray walls and green trees, and the cornice of the main hall of the Taoist temple stretched out into the blue sky.

"Master, why do you want to look at this cornice? Once again, realize the laws subconsciously summed up by the artisans of the past dynasties from the trend of rain? It is enough to look at the Chunfeng Pavilion, should we watch it forever? We are in Chang'an these days I have seen many ancient temples, Taoist temples, old pavilions, small bridges, and flowing water houses, and then I am worried that Chang'an Prefecture will suspect that we are a duo of young and old snipers.

"Grass characters..."

"Master, I was wrong."

Master Yan Se suppressed his anger after a long while, pointing to the cornice deep in the Taoist temple, his face was pale and said: "This time, you are not looking at the cornice, but the cornice beasts squatting on the cornice, you Release your mind to feel and see what is there."

Ning Que's expression suddenly became serious, and after a moment of silence, she slowly released her thought power, and touched the stone eaves beasts half-squatting on the cornices. The existence of the eaves beasts was fed back into the mind through the vitality of heaven and earth. In the sea of ​​consciousness, it seemed very clear, but in the next moment, those eaves beasts seemed to come to life, and he could even see their eyes!

His heartbeat began to speed up gradually, his breathing became heavier and heavier, while the eaves beasts in the sea of ​​knowledge and sight became clearer and clearer, and the pressure coming from him became heavier and heavier. His face became pale, and his body was extremely stiff.

Master Yan Se stood beside him, watching his reaction not worrying, but feeling calm and slightly happy. Ning Que was so sensitive to Yan Beast's reaction that it slightly diminished some of the irritation after being ridiculed.

Ning Que shook his head, got rid of the previous state, raised his hands and rubbed his eyes, looked at Master Yan Se and said, "Master, I feel it, and I understand it."

Master Yan Se frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect Ning Que to be able to get rid of the pressure of the eaves beast on his own.

Ning Que glanced at the eaves beasts that had become smaller in the distance, and said, "Master, do you want to tell me that these stone eaves beasts are also amulets, and they are given power and almost formidable by the **** rune masters. The pressure of life?"

Master Yan Se said: "Yes. What I am more puzzled now is why you did not panic when you first came into contact with the eaves beast."

Ning Que looked at him and answered honestly after a moment of silence: "I have been in contact with the eaves beast before."

Master Yan Se raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: "When? Where?"

Ning Que said: "Last spring, in the palace. When the carriage passed the laundry bureau, I don't know why. I saw the eaves beasts on the eaves of the palace and suddenly felt that they were coming back to life. I was particularly uncomfortable at the time. "

Master Yan Se was silent for a long time, and suddenly reached out and touched his head, his eyes filled with gentle appreciation.

"Listen to what you say and see what you do. I always think that your little guy's temperament and mood are really not suitable for practicing Talismans. I even thought that I was misled by your memo pad, and I read something wrong."

As a superb rune master in the world, the old Taoist knows very well that a young man who has never been in contact with practice can actually feel the pressure of the eaves beast. This represents what kind of talent he has in the rune.

"I am so gratified that you have proven your qualifications and abilities again."

Ning Que said with a smile: "Master, aptitude and ability are in the body, there is no need to prove that they have always existed."

"Today you said a lot of nonsense, this sentence is reasonable." Master Yan Se laughed, and then continued to ask with concern: "The last time you were in the Imperial City Laundry, it was the first time you felt The coercion of the eaves beast?"

Ning Que fell into a long silence because of this question.

He remembered that on that day last spring, he and Sangsang were standing on a straight and spacious street with a **** umbrella, standing in the drizzle, and then being suppressed by the painted red bird carved in the middle of the street. The past into two statues.

After a long time, he raised his head, looked at Master Yan Se, and said: "Actually... earlier on Suzaku Street, the stone sculpture of the Suzaku also gave me the same feeling, but I don’t know what the Suzaku portrait is."

Master Yan Se listened to his answer, his eyes narrowed into two slits, and suddenly he said, "Do you want to see that Suzaku again?"

……

……

Ning Que, of course, didn’t want to look at it. This has nothing to do with the fact that the Suzaku carved in the stone has no charm and is purely fake. He just subconsciously resisted and feared the painting of the Suzaku on the stone path-maybe he was last year On a spring rain day, he was too scared by the ancient killing of the Suzaku in the middle of the avenue. Perhaps he subconsciously remembered the near-death experience after fleeing to the street on a boring summer night last year. In short, there was a shadow in his heart. The richness can't be added.

However, as an excellent student, he knows that every time the teacher asks the student what he wants to do, he actually needs to make an attitude that respects your wishes. In fact, the teacher will never want to hear you Any answer except yes, so when Master Yan Se spoke, he honestly answered that he wanted to go.

The two masters and apprentices walked south from the foot of the imperial city along the spacious and straight Suzaku Avenue, as if stepping on a gray-brown ribbon embroidered with green lace, walking from the head of the giant in Chang'an to the chest. .

Looking at the Suzaku statue carved on the stone slab in the middle of the avenue, Ning Que felt that his mouth was a little dry, and his hands were subconsciously retracted into the cuffs, and his body felt a little stiff.

The painted portrait of Suzaku is as solemn and beautiful as usual. The wings are not fully extended. It is just when it is not shaken. The two eyes that are not angry and majestic are very well carved. No matter which angle you look at, you will feel it Staring at you. This is a must-see spot for the citizens of Datang counties after they come to Chang'an City, and the eyes of the Suzaku statue are also a wonderful place that all tourists talk about.

Standing among the people with different clothes and ornaments, looking at the Suzaku portrait in the middle, perhaps because of the noisy surroundings and the popularity of the relationship, Ning Que's sense of alertness and fear faded slightly.

However, his body is still stiff, his hands and feet are still cold, because he always feels that these eyes have been staring at him indifferently. This has nothing to do with the craftsmanship of the engravers. These eyes seem to tell him that they have gone through thousands of years of wind and rain. The Suzaku...is alive.
