Chapter 404 The Real Gu Master
Last time, we talked about how Li Yi and his team found a pair of surviving siblings in Kangping City, which was slaughtered by the demon army. So how will the story develop next? Let's read on.
After dinner, Li Yi and his team set out again, traveling through a desolate landscape. Even the young and ignorant Yang brothers and sisters knew how serious the situation was when they saw the tragic conditions in the villages along the way. But Lan Ze did not give up hope of survival. Every time he passed by a village, he would look for survivors and give the two children more time to rest.
The pace was naturally very slow as they kept stopping and starting, so they stopped at a small village to rest in the evening. After making a fire and filling their stomachs, Zhang Hongchen went to practice martial arts alone. It would take her a while to digest so many demon souls.
The others were sitting around the fire in a daze. Li Yi broke the silence and said, "Yang Shuo and Yang Di, you are alive thanks to your father. To repay him, you must live well.
I heard a story before about a young couple who went out for a trip and had an accident. The car they were riding in fell off a cliff. When the rescuers arrived at the scene, they found that their two-and-a-half-year-old child had miraculously survived. Do you know how the child survived?
Lan Ze, Yu Jiu and the Yang brothers and sisters all shook their heads. Li Yi said, "It was the young couple who saved the child with their own bodies. When people arrived, they saw that the couple had lifted up the child with their hands, but they themselves were already dead. This story was written into a song called "Daybreak". Can I sing it for you?"
The children nodded. Li Yi condensed his energy into mist and turned it into a guitar. He began to pluck the strings. Lan Ze reached out and held the two children in his arms and listened together:
It was an autumn, the wind was so lingering
Reminds me of their helpless eyes
In that place with beautiful scenery
I heard a loud noise that shook the valley
That autumn, I no longer saw my father's face
He used his shoulders to hold up the starting point of my rebirth
In the darkness, tears filled my eyes
Don't leave, don't hurt
I saw my parents just walking away
leave me in this strange world
I don’t know what risks there will be in the future.
I want to hold his hand tightly
My mother told me that I hope there will be
Seeing the sun coming out, mom smiled and it was dawn.
It's a night with stars in the sky
I saw my mother in my dream
One must learn to be strong in this world
Don't leave, don't hurt
I saw my parents just walking away
Leaving me in this strange world
I would like to build a beautiful garden for him
I want to hold his hand tightly
My mother told me that I hope there will be
I saw the sun coming out and it was dawn.
I saw my parents just walking away
Leaving me in this strange world
I would like to build a beautiful garden for him
I want to hold his hand tightly
My mother told me that I hope there will be
Seeing the sun coming out, they smiled and the day dawned.
Everyone who knows this song knows this true story. Li Yi adapted it to make it easier for children to understand, but the emotion and true meaning of the song will not change.
The brother and sister cried bitterly in Lan Ze's arms. Lan Ze kept comforting the two children, but he couldn't wipe away his own tears.
Lan Ze remembered how helpless she felt when she was crying by the lake, remembered how her master took care of her, and remembered watching her master desperately trying to stop those thugs, but she kept shouting for her and Brother You to go first.
Thinking of the scene of his master being beaten to death, Lan Ze could no longer control his sadness. He hugged his two children and cried loudly, expressing his sorrow. Perhaps this is the feeling of a heart-wrenching pain.
After Li Yi finished singing, purple energy gathered, but he did not absorb this talent, but forced it into two parts and pressed it into the bodies of the Yang brothers and sisters. He took a long breath, as if he had let out the depression in his heart, and then took Yu Jiu away silently, letting the three of them cry here for a while.
Yu Jiu looked back at the three people who were crying and said, "Sir, I miss my parents. I wonder how they are doing now."
"Then go back and take a look. When we meet up with the Dongyi Guards, you can act with them. After we wipe out the monster tribe, you can go back to Nanliang with them. Go back and take a look."
Yu Jiu nodded, and then asked, "My lord, you asked me to act with the Dongyi Guards because you want to fight the Demon King and the Gu God."
"You are quite smart, boy. If you can reach the extraordinary realm, I would like to take you to see the battle of the second rank, but you are not there yet."
"Then when can I reach the extraordinary realm?"
"The last time I saw you fighting the leopard monster, the Fire Spirit True Soul is your strongest move now. Your soul is strong enough and your control is pretty good. It's time to teach you some real skills."
"Really? What real skills are you going to teach me, sir?"
Li Yi took out a bow from a sack and handed it to Yu Jiu, then said: "You have learned a lot in controlling objects. I will first teach you archery, which is an external skill. Then I will teach you an internal skill. In this way, you will be able to fight against the monsters."
"Sir, I feel like I'm not very good at dealing with illusions. Can you tell me more about it?"
"Every profession has its own specialty. Your talent is not in illusion. It is useless to talk about it. It is better to improve your mental strength. In this way, even if you are trapped by an illusion, you can use your mental strength to forcibly remove it."
"Oh, then what is the inner strength that Master wants to teach me?"
"The law of heaven and earth!"
"Is it the Acala image of the young master? Doesn't this mean that we need to cultivate Buddhism?"
“In fact, the Dharmakāya of Buddhism is just one way of using the Dharmakāya of Heaven and Earth, but Buddhism has elevated this method to a new level.
It is impossible for you to possess the Dharmakāya, but you can master the Dharmakāya of Heaven and Earth. This trick can be used when facing a huge monster clan."
After that, Li Yi began to teach Yu Jiu, and this time he taught him seriously, without any intention of fooling around...
When Li Yi came back, the Yang brothers and sisters were already asleep. Lan Ze was standing by the bed, staring at them blankly. Li Yi said softly, "They are both asleep. You should also go to bed early. You have to travel tomorrow."
He was about to leave after he finished speaking, but Lan Ze gently pulled him back, motioning for him to go out and talk. Li Yi nodded, and the two of them tiptoed out of the room, closed the door gently, and sat on the wooden bench in the courtyard, looking at the starry sky.
Lan Ze talked a lot tonight. He kept talking about his past, how he studied medicine with his master, and how he traveled around with his master and Brother You to treat illnesses. Of course, he also talked about the cause of his master's death.
Li Yi asked: "What happened to that family in the end? After you grew up and mastered your skills, did you ever think about avenging your master?"
"How could I let them go? After I found them, I put a curse on their entire family, making them suffer terribly!"
"And what happened next? Did they all die at your hands?"
Lan Ze sighed and said, "No, Brother You saved them. He not only removed the poison I planted, but also let them go."
"You must be very angry then."
"Nonsense, of course I'm angry. I had a quarrel with Brother You, and he slapped me. That was the first and only time he hit me. After scolding me, he drove me to Baidi City and asked me to learn the tea ceremony from the Chu people to cultivate my character."
"So now you understand what he means?"
Lan Ze replied, "I'm not a fool! I have already figured out what happened! The master and the family signed a life and death contract. If the doctor can't cure the patient, the patient will have to pay with his life. This is the local custom for treating wandering doctors."
Li Yi was surprised and said, "There is such a strange custom. Doctors are kind-hearted. If they risk their lives to save people, it's really not worth it."
Lan Ze explained: "They were also harmed by quack doctors and fake medicines. They were helpless."
"Oh, it seems you really understand."
Lan Ze said unhappily: "Don't think that you Confucianists are the only ones in this world who understand things!"
Li Yi shook his head and said, "You are wrong. There are many Confucianists who confuse right and wrong and only care about the word "profit". Many people are called great Confucianists, but they are deceiving the world and stealing their reputation. There are countless people who seek fame and reputation!"
"What about you? What kind of person are you?"
"Me? Hypocrite, the real villain is talking about me."
Lan Ze snorted coldly: "You have some conscience and know that you are not a good person!"
Li Yi smiled and said, "I feel like you're a little different tonight. You talk more and you're in a better mood. What's going on?"
Lan Ze blushed and turned away. She forgot that Li Yi couldn't see her face. She snorted coldly, "What do you care? I just want to talk to someone. It's such a pity that I'm surrounded by a shameless person like you!"
Li Yi nodded and smiled: "Okay, then I, a shameless person, will chat with you, a smart fool, for a while."
Lan Ze tilted her head and said, "No more chatting, I've had enough! I'm going to rest!"
"Okay, then you should go to bed early. I'm also very tired. Come on, I'll take you home." Li Yi made a gesture of invitation.
Lan Ze suddenly threw himself into his arms, hugged him tightly and said, "Don't move, I just suddenly want to find someone to hug. Brother You has never hugged me, and now I only have you by my side..."
Li Yi took over the conversation and said, "Such a shameless guy! Okay, I understand, I understand! Hug me, hug me tightly." As he spoke, Li Yi hugged Lan Ze tightly, pressed her head against his chest, and stroked her back.
Under the starry sky, in the small courtyard, there are broken walls and no one is repairing them.
In Miao territory, demons are rampant, and the plague of bees and locusts will never end.
The orphan was rescued, tears flowed, and Lan Ze felt relieved and his stubbornness was resolved.
The music is long and the song is sad, but love is the hardest word to keep.
Although it was not a beautiful day, there was no love between the man and the woman.
But at this time, when a benevolent person does good deeds, his behavior should naturally follow his heart.
Never had the fire of karma burn my body, and completely got rid of the harm of witchcraft,
How can I get the chance and destiny to reshape this spiritual insect?
The two hugged each other for a while, and Lan Ze suddenly asked, "Who! Who's there?"
Li Yi looked around and saw no one, so he asked Xiang Lanze: "What did you say? How could there be anyone else around here?"
Lan Ze also felt strange and asked in confusion: "I know that too, but why do I feel like there are so many eyes staring at me?"
Li Yi asked suspiciously, "Are you sensing a ghost?"
Lan Ze rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of ghosts? There are techniques to communicate with ghosts in witchcraft. There's nothing to be afraid of ghosts!"
Li Yi said, "Oh!" and pointed at the mouse on the wall and said, "Look what that is. Is it a ghost?"
Lan Ze screamed and threw himself into Li Yi's arms, burying his head deeply.
Li Yi smiled and stroked her back and said, "Ah, no, I was mistaken, it's a mouse. I thought it was a ghost!"
Lan Ze pinched Li Yi and cursed, "You are a despicable, shameless, filthy and lowly villain!"
Li Yi rubbed his chest with a grin and said, "This is weird. Where do all these rats come from in the middle of the night? They're not afraid of people!"
Lan Ze looked over and saw a row of rats lying on the wall, all of them raised their front legs and looked at him. Li Yi picked up a piece of soil and threw it over, scaring the rats away.
