The Venerable Swordsman

Chapter 1269 : That Sword Cultivator!

Ye Xuan and Ye Zhiming looked at the door, Ye Xuan said softly: "Did the other party let us in?"

Ye Zhiming nodded.

Ye Xuan smiled and said, "Then go in!"

After speaking, he walked towards the distance.

Ye Zhiming glanced at Ye Xuan, and then followed.

Soon, Ye Xuan and Ye Zhiming entered the door.

Inside the door, there is a hole in the sky.

After the two entered the door, they came directly to a small island, surrounded by endless sea water.

And not far in front of them, there was an old man in white sitting there, and a chessboard was placed in front of the old man in white.

Seeing Ye Xuan and Ye Zhiming, the old man in white smiled slightly, "Congratulations."

Ye Xuan gave a slight salute, "What do you mean by senior?"

The old man in white smiled and said, "You have walked out of your own path!"

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Is that gravel path made by seniors?"

The old man in white nodded, "Originally, I wanted to find an inheritor for myself, but unfortunately, after waiting for tens of thousands of years, I didn't find one. However, a good one finally came, but he went out of his own way. ..."

As he spoke, he shook his head and smiled, "God is playing with me!"

Ye Xuan hesitated, and then said: "I can also be the successor of the predecessors!"

The old man in white smiled and said, "It can't be done! Because you already have your own way, to a certain extent, you and I are in the same way."

Ye Xuan was silent.

The old man in white suddenly looked at Ye Zhiming beside Ye Xuan, "This girl is not bad, but unfortunately, she is not from our world, and her background is not simple......"

Ye Zhiming glanced at the old man in white, but said nothing.

Ye Xuandao: "Senior, do you know where she came from?"

The old man in white smiled and said, "You don't know?"

Ye Xuan shook his head, "She won't tell me!"

The old man in white smiled slightly, "Then I won't mind my own business!"

Ye Xuan: "..."

The old man in white said softly: "Sit down, let's chat!"

Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, then walked up to the old man in white and sat down.

The old man in white looked up at the sky, and said softly: "Are you here for the scripture?"

Ye Xuan nodded.

The old man in white smiled, and then he took out a black scroll and put it on the chessboard!

Seeing this black scroll, Ye Zhiming's eyes narrowed immediately.

Ye Xuan glanced at the black scroll, "Is this the Taoist scripture?"

The old man in white nodded, "The Daoist Scripture has nine pages in total, and each page is a volume. This is the third volume for me: variables."

Ye Xuan looked at the old man in white, "Variation?"

The white-clothed old man nodded, "Everything in the world is born and dies according to the changes. Therefore, not only all things have birth, old age, sickness, and death, but also the mountains, rivers and lands in the world. Evolution. There are changes in human minds such as joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and shock, and the timing of nature is even more changing in spring, summer, autumn, winter, or cold, warm, cold, and hot. That is to say , all things in time are not eternal and change from time to time, the past has gone, the future has not gone, and the present is changing, and all these changes come and go, life and death are caused by variables. "

As he said that, he looked at Ye Xuan and smiled slightly, "To put it simply, nothing in the universe is static. Since it is moving, it is a "variable."

And because of this variable, everything in the world becomes meaningful. "

Ye Xuan was silent.

Ye Zhiming on the side suddenly said: "Can the way of variables be controlled by humans?"

The old man in white glanced at Ye Zhiming, and said with a smile: "Yes! As the saying goes, man will conquer nature. Although this statement is not absolute, it is not impossible."

Ye Zhiming was silent.

The old man in white looked at Ye Xuan, "Your swordsmanship has changed, it has become a brand new swordsmanship, but you have to understand that not only the swordsmanship can be changed, life is impermanent, everything in the world has variables! enlightened a little,

That is, life is impermanent. Although we cannot change the world, we can change ourselves. After changing ourselves, we can change the world. If you don't change yourself, you will be changed by the world. And this variable, it may make your life worse, or it may make your life better, and this does not depend on the variable, but on ourselves. People who work hard often don't live too badly. "

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Senior, you should be able to see the cause of my calamity, right?"

The old man in white nodded, "Yes."

Ye Xuan looked at the old man in white, who smiled slightly, "Actually, you are already changing yourself."

Hearing this, Ye Xuan was slightly taken aback, and soon, he saluted slightly, "I understand!"

The cause of disaster!

In the past, he didn't know what the cause of disaster was, he could only be manipulated and manipulated.

But now, he has been able to change!

Just like at this moment, although he met Ye Zhiming because of the disaster, he also came to this place because of Ye Zhiming, broke through the way of the sword, and became stronger!

As this scripture says, there are no absolutes in the world, and many times, even bad things can turn into good things!

It depends on how you choose!

On the contrary, many times, good things can also turn into bad things!

This is the variable!

The variable is not in the way of heaven, but in itself.

Variables are a truth of the universe, but they are also a truth of life, and they can be controlled by people.

In front of Ye Xuan, the old man in white had a complex look in his eyes, "Young student, you are better than me back then!"

Ye Xuan hastily said: "Senior, you are overrated!"

The old man in white smiled and said: "You are indeed better than me. Back then, I was too attached to this scripture. In fact, this scripture is a road that others have walked. However, even if there is no road, we can also walk a road. Yes! Just like you!"

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Senior, someone has said this to me, junior!"

A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the old man in white, "People outside?"

Ye Xuan nodded.

The old man in white smiled slightly, "It seems that there are not many high-ranking people in the world!"

As he said, he pointed to the place in front of Ye Xuan, "Once upon a time, a swordsman came here."

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "But a swordsman in a cloud-white robe?"

A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the old man in white, "How did you know?"

Ye Xuan said with a smile: "I have his saber, and I just came here, and the sword blares, I guess its owner may have been here before!"

The old man in white smiled and said: "So that's it! After seeing this person, I suddenly understood a sentence. When we think this peak is the highest, we don't know that there are even higher peaks."

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Senior, have you ever fought against him?"

The old man in white nodded, "I have fought."

Ye Xuan asked, "Who wins and who loses?"

The old man in white smiled and said: "I lost! I

Failed to catch his sword! "

Hearing this, Ye Xuan's expression moved.

That Ye Zhiming also frowned, the strength of the white-clothed old man in front of him should have reached that level, and he didn't even catch the opponent's sword!

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Didn't you catch a single sword?"

The old man in white nodded, "Yes."

Ye Xuan asked, "Why?"

The old man in white smiled and said: "This has to return to the most basic truth, a truth that all of us will ignore."

Ye Xuan asked, "What?"

The old man in white looked at Ye Xuan, "Extreme!"

Ye Xuan was a little puzzled, "Extreme?"

The old man in white said softly: "When we do something, even if it is a very, very small thing, if we can do it to the extreme, it is very terrifying. That sword cultivator, who does not cultivate his heart, does not repair He does not cultivate the Dao, let alone the realm, he only cultivates the sword. He does not cultivate the mind, so neither good nor evil; he does not cultivate, because the sword is the principle, and the principle is the sword; he does not cultivate the Tao, because the sword is the way , Tao is his sword; he does not practice realm, so he has no realm, so he is not bound by realm."

As he said that, he picked up a chess piece on the chessboard in front of him and put it outside the chessboard, and said softly: "He is not on the chessboard, he himself is his own variable. This kind of person, to all living beings on the chessboard, he is He is invincible, because he is outside the chessboard and not bound by the rules of the chess game. And I am still inside the chessboard, so if he kills me, one sword is enough."

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice: "Am I also on the chessboard?"

Ye Zhiming glanced at Ye Xuan, she hesitated, and then said: "Don't you have any points in your heart?"

Ye Xuan: "..."

The old man in white smiled and said: "You are still on the chessboard, but you are familiar with the rules of the chessboard now, so there are very few people on the chessboard who are your opponents. But you are not invincible, understand?"

Ye Xuan nodded, "Understood!"

The old man in white hesitated for a while, and then said: "There is one more word, it's not about martial arts, nor about Taoism, it's just some of my own insights, would you like to hear it?"

Any fool knows how to choose!

Ye Xuan hurriedly said: "Senior, please tell me!"

The old man in white held a chess piece in his hand, and said softly: "I have given up too much in order to pursue the so-called Dao. Love, family, friendship... I used to have all of these, but later, But I gave up on them because of the so-called Dao in my heart."

As he said that, he looked at Ye Xuan and Ye Zhiming, "Young man, mysterious girl, it is lonely to pursue the Dao. It is extremely lonely. Don't abandon those who care about you and what you care about for the so-called Dao in your heart." People. When you reach a certain peak one day, but find that there is no one around you, that feeling is really uncomfortable, because no one will share your joy with you, and no one will accompany you to continue walking into the future At that time, invincibility was a kind of irony to you, because it was lonely invincibility..."

Ye Xuan was silent.

Ye Zhiming was silent.

Somewhere in the distant starry sky, a woman in a plain skirt stopped suddenly. She took out a small wooden figure, looked at the small wooden figure in her hand, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and then she continued to move forward.

Once, she was invincible, but very lonely!

Today, she is still invincible, but she is not alone.

 …

PS: Once, I had many monthly passes, but I was lonely.

Now, I don't have a monthly pass. I am lonelier!
