Song of Time – Dusk Awakening Verse

The top of the sacred tower seems to always be so peaceful and tranquil, far away from the mundane harassment.

Just after noon, the sun was looming in the purple bamboo forest. Jie Haiduan sat on the stone platform for practice, folded his hands on his chest, frowned, thinking about the "borrowing power" exercises he had just done. After one day of training yesterday, he is already familiar with how to find those shining stars like supernatural power points. As long as he closes his eyes, he can quickly enter the state without much thinking. However, whenever he tried to follow his husband's guidance and turn the countless black lights, a vast and boundless black tide of evil thoughts would suddenly appear, smashing his fragile mental power, without exception.

Such repeated trials and failures made him a little frustrated. Just now, the gentleman who did not want to give his name probably saw his frustration, and lazily mocked a few words: "Less give me a frown. Are you still annoyed...Speaking of relaxation and concentration, how many times have you been able to do it? It's really unlucky to meet you with such an incapable elm bump..."

Jie Hai has heard his sarcasm many times, and feels that he is almost immune. Fortunately, this gentleman is still dedicated to teaching sincerely. However, he has no idea about the supernatural power of divine power. He just obeys the command bluntly, and does not know the reason. This kind of groundless practice is not so simple... Of course, I only dare to say this in his heart. I thought to myself that I couldn't talk about it.

He sat quietly for a long time, thinking about it without gaining anything, then turned sideways and glanced secretly. Not far away in the dense shade of the forest, Yun Xuan, wearing a purple water-print robe, lay reclining on a chair with his eyes closed, and was enjoying afternoon tea leisurely. His expression of carefreeness was in sharp contrast to him.

"Sir..." Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, Jie Hai hesitated and greeted him. He wanted to take the opportunity to ask more details about the control method. The priest suddenly opened his eyes, and slowly got up with his hand, and looked at him. He ordered: "Think about it here, and wait for me to come back." He didn't wait for Jie Hai to react, the divine light in his pupils flickered, immediately turned into a ball of white light, and flew out of the bamboo forest in the blink of an eye.

"Sir! When are you coming back?" Jie Hai ran a few steps in the direction where he disappeared, and shouted anxiously, but he didn't receive any reply, and I don't know if the priest heard him.

He is the only one left in the bamboo forest, accompanied by the cool breeze, the warm sunshine, and the fragrant vegetation, which is a good place to relax in the afternoon. It's just that the doubts and boredom he is full of now is nowhere to be resolved, how can he have such thoughts... he irritatedly curled his eyebrows and scratched his head, then looked around again, and his eyes were all thin bamboos dancing in the wind, and there was no sound. There was no bird song, so he could only sigh helplessly and lay on his back on the stage, and continued to meditate with closed eyes.

Yun Xuan, in the form of white light, flew out of the bamboo forest, bypassed the tower, and entered the lower room through a membrane-shaped light wall. This is a small living room that seems to be quite old. The bright and clean wooden floor has a dark yellow color. Several sets of mahogany chairs are arranged in two rows. There is a small table next to each other with tea sets on the wall. The yellowed scrolls of calligraphy and paintings, of different lengths, look a little messy.

The priest stopped at the door to disperse the white light, and raised his eyes to see a middle-aged monk wearing a white embroidered gold-rimmed robe standing by the seat, bowing slightly to salute him. This man seems to be over forty years old, with a gentle face and a smile, and he seems to be particularly easy to get close to. His pupils are a rare light gray. Although his hair is covered by a hood, it is undoubtedly light gray from the two long sideburns hanging down to his chest.

"A Ning?" Yun Xuan was a little surprised when he saw this person. He had just noticed that someone downstairs was using a divine summoning at the top of the tower, but he did not expect that he would be a half-way apprentice he hadn't seen for many years.

Thirty years ago, Emperor Xinchu ascended the throne. As usual, he accepted the three most promising powers among the three contemporary royal families of Xin, Ning and Yuling to study with him. He said it was learning, but it was actually just a little explanation and guidance. After all, he had to travel around, and only dialed a few words when he had free time. He had been teaching on and off for more than two years.

The emperor and the Jade King were entangled in chores, relying on their talents, and spent limited time in practice. On the contrary, it is Ning, who is quiet and peaceful by nature, and does not like the world. He is quite acquainted with his mind. In addition to the divine power attribute is the light line, he is accepted as a half apprentice, and occasionally supervises the practice. , Is closer than the other two.

It's just that after the three of them have practiced and become a teacher, the priests rarely return to the capital, and even if they come back, they never meet, for fear of getting involved with them. The three people also had their own consideration of the teacher's thoughts, and they did not dare to come to disturb them rashly, so since then, the number of meetings can be counted with one hand.

Unexpectedly today, Yun Xuan was somewhat happy in his heart, raised his hand to him and said "Sit", then strode forward to the main seat and watched him sit on the wooden chair with a smile. , Jokingly said: "I thought you were closed again, but I knew I was back to Beijing..."

The white-clothed monk nodded but didn't reply, he lowered his eyes and looked to the floor, as if he was pondering. When the priest saw that the disciple was silent, he knew that the other party would have something to do with him, but he didn't care about it. In his opinion, this disciple rarely went out of the tower and didn't like to be nosy. The bottleneck in practice came to him for advice. He leaned back on the chair with a smile, and took out his pipe indifferently and tapped it on the table. While stuffing the tobacco, he asked leisurely: "Why, what are the difficulties in the practice? Say, let me. Help you think about it."

"Not at all..." Ning shook his head and no longer hesitated. He turned to look at the priest and asked, "Teacher, someone has come to tell me today. There is a rumor outside... the apocalypse ceremony eight years ago was very shady. What's more, when it comes to teachers, there are many offensive words... I don't know, have you heard?

Apocalypse is shady? What do you mean? Yun Xuan slowly filled his pipe and was about to light it. He was taken aback when he heard it. He looked up and stared at him in surprise and asked, "Why would anyone say this? Where did you hear it?"

"I didn't believe it, but from what that person said, now the city can be heard everywhere... It is said that yesterday, the ominous daughter who was wanted for eight years but has not been whereabouts appeared again in the capital... she There was your sacred bird by your side, and there were many people I saw at the time, so these rumors came out..."

How could Miyou be recognized? What stupid the **** fat bird did... the priest twitched the corners of his mouth insignificantly, holding his pipe and cursing in his heart: I told him that he was not allowed to go to the capital at will. Now it’s okay to cause this kind of thing. Up! It has no scruples, and if something goes wrong, it will not be counted on itself!

He was annoyed in his heart, but the matter involved the reputation of the royal family and the holy tower, which must not be admitted. Therefore, he did not show the slightest expression on his face. He only stared at him and asked in surprise: "There is this thing? Wrong? Miyou has been missing for eight years, how can he appear in the capital for no reason? What's more, my fat bird stays at home all day, and no one has seen it before, so where can I identify it? Will it have something to do with Mi You? 80% of them are looking away and misrepresenting it..."

Although the monk also sneered at the rumors, but Miyou’s presence was confirmed. He saw that the teacher refused to believe it and explained: "Teacher...it is said that Yuling was also on the scene at the time, and he had some disputes with them. Can't be wrong..."

Well, it's all about being seen by others, and it just happened that Yuling was caught righteously... You must know that the wanted order was made by this person. Isn't it a big deal now? Yun Xuan was so angry that he took a few puffs of his pipe without smoking. He turned his head and found that he was distracted and forgot to start the light. He squinted his eyes and took down the pipe and put it on the table, coughing lightly, pretending to be surprised, and said nonsense: "There is such a thing? I don't know that... You know, I have been busy running around in recent years. , I don’t even have time to go home. How can I know that this will happen? To be honest, I almost forget what Miyou looks like..."

He spread his hand to the monk innocently, picked up his pipe and wiped the light, took a breath of smoke, shook his head and sighed with a smile, "Besides, you know what the fat bird is, but I can’t control it. ...By the way, I really don't know how it can find Miyou, and it can be regarded as its ability..."

Ning always knew that there was something in the teacher's mind and he would never say it clearly. He didn't come to question, but thought that the matter was quite relevant. If he told the teacher as soon as possible, he would have some preparations, so he hurried to visit. What's more, the teacher has always acted fairly, without concern for the world, and absolutely no reason for favoritism. At this moment, I saw that the other party told me that he didn't know the reason. Although he couldn't understand the reason, he just nodded and added: "The teacher is right...I knew that the day Kai Nei / Muzhi was a fiction."

"The apocalypse ceremony is the result of the arrival of the will of the Supreme God into the mortal world. How could it be done falsely!" The priest rebuked with a stern face, and taught in a serious manner.

"Since you said that, I'm relieved..." The monk was reprimanded, but he stretched his brows and smiled. After he was worried, he talked to the priest again, "How long do you plan to stay in the tower this time?"

"Can't live long... It's too much trouble to clean up."

"I heard that the teacher also brought back a younger brother? I wonder if I can meet him?"

"What a junior, I can confiscate his entry... It's just that he is supported by the power of Saint Profound, so as not to cause trouble."

"That's it... I just heard about it, and thought that the teacher was planning to stay in Beijing again, and I was overjoyed. It turned out that I was thinking too much." He smiled and sighed. Although his thoughts fell through, he seemed to be in the mood. It's completely unimpeded, "I'm afraid that the power of the Holy Profound cannot be controlled in a short time. If the teacher is too busy to teach him, the students can also do a little bit of his power, but they have a life, and they can show you..."

"It's rare that you have this heart..." Yun Xuan nodded without comment, but closed his eyes and smoked without saying a word.

Seeing this, the monk knew that the teacher was a little tired and didn't stay any longer. He got up and bowed again. He smiled and walked to the door. The white light flashed out of the light wall.

The priest slightly opened his eyelids and frowned when he left. He knocked the pipe on the table and poured out the residue, retracted it into the cloth bag, and closed his eyes on the wooden chair to figure it out: If Miyou was discovered , It’s really not a big deal, there are some ways to get it done, after all, after eight years, isn’t it the emperor’s will to cancel the wanted order? It's just that the stupid bird was caught righteously with her, and he was involved in it, and it even involved the apocalypse, and the disaster was countless times bigger in an instant. Now that rumors are everywhere, it is inevitable that someone will use this matter to make a fuss...

In fact, it is very simple to resolve this matter. All you need to do is to elaborate on the various events that occurred during the apocalypse ceremony, and then present the evidence, naturally no one will object. It's just that the apocalypse, as the top secret secret of the royal family's destiny, can be made public?

Forget it, let them make the noise... As long as you don't speak clearly, these rumors are unfounded, and after a few more days, it will be difficult to maintain. If someone wants to make a fuss deliberately, the emperor will take care of it, so don't bother yourself. Anyway, as long as there is that stupid bird by his side, Mi You must be extremely safe. When the storm is settled, I will pick her back quietly...

The priest's thoughts turned sharply, and he decided to put aside the burden and not to interfere with the matter. He stood up and flicked his sleeves as he was about to leave. On the light wall at the door of the room flashed black rays of light, and then, a black satin palace robe embroidered with gold patterns His Majesty the Emperor appeared in the living room.

The emperor still wore an iron mask to cover most of his face, and he couldn't see the expression. As soon as he stood still, he noticed Yun Xuan standing indifferently in front of him, and was shocked to disperse the divine power mask and bow to salute. Next, I haven’t seen you for many years, you are always well."
