Taiping Inn

Chapter 72 Past and Present

After a great battle, the county government was completely destroyed, and the "Divine Refining Formation" was naturally broken. The black clouds shrouded over Beimang County began to dissipate.

Li Xuandu looked at Mrs. Lu and asked, "When can the people in the city return to normal?"

Mrs. Lu replied, "It will take about twelve hours."

Li Xuandu let out a long breath of turbid air and said, "Then let's stay here, so everyone can adjust their breathing."

In fact, no one else was injured. At most, he had consumed some energy. Even Mrs. Lu was still an old injury from the past and had nothing to do with today's battle. Li Xuandu was the one who was really seriously injured.

Everyone had no objection and looked for the place to sit.

Originally, a lively county town, after such disturbances from Zaoge Sect, was like an empty city.

In this way, there is no need to worry about anyone disturbing him. Li Xuan went straight to the stone lion where the little Taoist boy was just now, sat cross-legged with his back against the stone lion, and took out the spring of Changsheng that Su Yunba gave him, like drinking, Drink slowly with your eyes.

After a while, Su Yunjiao poked his head and came to him.

Li Xuan raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then closed his eyes again.

Su Yunjiao whispered, "Senior Brother Li... I heard that you got a treasure just now."

"Yes." Li Xuan said with his eyes closed.

"Can I open my eyes if I take it out?" Su Yunjiao discussed and said pitifully: "I have never seen a magic weapon except this 'Xuanshui'."

Li Xuandu opened his eyes and smiled and said, "Will there be no treasure on the dignified Fairy Su Xiao? Whoever believes whoever goes?"

Su Yunjiao said angrily: "No, there is nothing. Is there any such thing as lying? Apart from a Sumeru treasure, it is this 'Xuanshui'. If you don't believe it, you can just search it."

As she said that, she opened her hands, looking like you were searching.

Li Xuan didn't even take action, and didn't even turn his eyes. He just looked at her face and joked, "Will I become a disciple? Your sister will kill me with one sword."

Su Yunjiao snorted: "My sister won't turn against you for me. She is full of righteousness and the world's trend, so she doesn't bother with me."

Li Xuandu slowly restrained the smile on his face and said seriously: "Junior Sister Su, you don't have the word "express" yet. I am older, so I will call you Yunjiao. When I saw you at Taiping Inn, I couldn't Tell you all this. Now it is a shared hardship, which shows that we are still able to make plans, so it doesn’t matter if we have a simple and profound conversation. Yunjiao, you can use this mind to save others, but you cannot use this mind to save your sister. You can not miss the people of the world, or you can not miss the righteousness of the world, but you must never miss the elder sister who brought you up since childhood."

Seeing that Li Xuandu looked solemn, Su Yunjiao also restrained her expression and focused her head.

Li Xuan smiled and said, "As long as good as flow, and a bad as breaking. You are willing to listen to others and listen to advice. This is your strength. You are most afraid of those who don't listen to advice. If you have a good word, it's hard to persuade you. Damn the ghost, some people are pushing themselves into desperate situations, and that is to commit crimes and never survive."

Su Yunjiao asked, "Who is this 'some people'? Is it your junior sister?"

Li Xuan was thrusting his hands and trying to hit him.

Su Yunjiao hurriedly took a step back and said, "Seeing that you are injured, I will not take advantage of you. After your injury is healed, we will fight for another 300 rounds."

Li Xuandu's face looked strange, and he coughed lightly, scolding, "Daughter's family should not keep such 'vulgar words' on his lips."

Su Yunjiao said with a puzzled look on her face: "What vulgar words?"

Li Xuandu was facing a pair of curious eyes and felt more and more embarrassed, so he could only say vaguely: "You will naturally understand this kind of thing after you get married."

Su Yunjiao didn't understand anymore. After hearing the word "marriage", she also sucked some smell. Her cheeks turned red and she spat, "Dengtu."

Li Xuan said helplessly: "Just pretend I didn't say anything. Cihang Sect is a pure Buddhist land. It's understandable that you don't know."

Su Yunjiao stopped talking, and Li Xuandu was now full of pain. Just talking would affect his trachea and lungs, and he would not say much. After drinking half of the gourd and Changsheng Spring, he looked at his own rippling bones. The palm of your hand is about to start entering into meditation.

Su Yunjiao also saw that the white bone palm, which was destroyed by the sword energy, suddenly turned red in his eyes.

This really hurts.

Li Xuan looked at her: "Walking in the world, is this injury still called injury? Heroes and heroes have a saying, "The big scar in your head is gone." You didn't see the Tibetan old man just now. I cut off the flesh and blood of my palm for more than ten times, and I didn't even move my eyebrows. That was the true style of a master. I'm afraid you won't be a master in this life."

Su Yunjiao was stunned.

Li Xuandu laughed. Although it hurts very much, he feels no longer hurts.

When I was practicing swordsmanship, the senior brother often said this, "What a great master is like, you can't become a great master."

Now he is only two steps away from the Grand Master, but the eldest brother is no longer there.

When Su Yunjiao saw Li Xuandu smiling on her face, her mood calmed down, and sat cross-legged and asked, "Doesn't it hurt?"

Li Xuan didn't say anything, but just bounced out a sword energy and stabbed into Su Yunjiao's body.

Su Yunjiao jumped up as if she was stabbed by a needle, her eyebrows were tangled together, and she glared at Li Xuan and said, "Are you sick?"

Li Xuandu smiled softly and said, "The first time I was injured, it hurt so much that I felt like I was dying. When it didn't hurt anymore, I felt like I was in bliss. But the second time I was injured, it didn't hurt that much. Later, I got hurt so much that I became numb and didn't care whether it hurt or not. You don't feel it clearly now. I'll probably give you another twenty or so swords and you won't feel the pain anymore."

Su Yunjiao saw that Li Xuandu was about to snap his fingers again, so she stepped back a few steps and shook her hand, saying, "No need, no need."

Li Xuandu retracted his fingers and sighed softly, "If you suffer too much now, it won't be so painful in the future. If you live too smoothly when you are young, you will easily fall into despair once you encounter setbacks when you are old. You are still too young now and don't know that the so-called opportunities have actually been marked with prices in the dark. Take it today and return it tomorrow."

This is Li Xuandu's personal experience.

When he was Su Yunjiao's age, he was full of vigor and ambition, and had a promising future. Everyone thought he was a child of destiny, but what happened later also proved a saying that the higher you climb, the harder you fall. Li Xuandu almost didn't get up again, and he almost fell to death.

So, these words were all from his feelings. When he was young, he was treated well by the world, so he had to bear all the injustices in his old age. Similarly, if he suffered too many setbacks in his early years, it was natural for him to be happy in his old age.

There may be exceptions, but most people are like this.

Su Yunjiao didn't have Li Xuandu's experience, so it was naturally difficult for her to understand Li Xuandu's current state of mind and words. She rolled her eyes in disapproval and didn't say anything.

Li Xuandu didn't force it, he smiled lightly, closed his eyes, and began to practice.

A long silence.

The black clouds in the sky dissipated, revealing a blue sky.

The late autumn sunshine seems a little pale and weak, like a person standing far away and indifferent, almost indifferent, far from the gentleness of spring, the warmth of summer, and the tranquility of winter, making people feel little warmth.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Yunjiao suddenly said, "Brother Li, why does your junior sister hate you?"

Li Xuandu opened his eyes: "Because of preaching."

Su Yunjiao asked in confusion: "Why don't I feel that?"

Li Xuandu asked: "When we first met, I was explaining things to you. What did you say? You asked me if I was worthy."

Su Yunjiao was stunned and hesitated: "No, no? Even if there was, it's not my fault. It's for no reason. How can I explain things to you right away? Shouldn't I say it after the fight?"

Li Xuandu sighed: "Let's talk about it now. If I'm not the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal? I don't have the current realm and cultivation. I'm just an ordinary Jianghu wanderer. Would you still listen to me say these things?"

Su Yunjiao was stunned: "Should...right?"

Li Xuandu smiled: "My junior sister, when I was a Purple Mansion guest, was also willing to listen to my flashy and unrealistic principles, but after the change in the Imperial Capital, she was not willing to listen to my nagging."
