Seeing Qingyang hesitated, old Taoist Songhe was dissatisfied and said, "you are the only disciple to be a teacher. Who can Xiping temple be passed on to if you don't pass it on to you? In fact, there are no other requirements for being a teacher. I just hope you can accompany me well in the last few years of your life. When I die, it doesn't matter whether you want to go or stay at Xiping temple. It doesn't matter to me anymore."
Facing the simple request of Songhe Taoist priest, Qingyang really couldn't bear to refuse, but he vaguely felt that he shouldn't agree, but if he didn't agree, Songhe Taoist priest would be very angry, sad and disappointed. He was in a dilemma for a time and didn't know how to speak.
Sure enough, seeing the disciple's hesitation, old Taoist Songhe was completely disappointed and said painfully: "Why? You can't promise me such a simple request? Unexpectedly, I raised you for so many years, but I raised a white eyed wolf. Seeing that master I'm old and useless, I want to get rid of me as a burden, don't you? In that case, go and think I don't have this apprentice..."
The Songhe Taoist priest was distressed, and Qingyang was more distressed than him. Even if everything here was fake, he didn't want to see master like this and didn't want to make him sad and disappointed. Qingyang opened his mouth and really wanted to promise the Songhe Taoist priest's conditions, but reason told him he couldn't do so.
I don't know how long it took, Qingyang finally made up his mind, raised his head and said, "master, disciple has decided to take the road of cultivating immortality in the future. This road of cultivating immortality is a thorn. I must have no chance to spend the rest of my life with master. Please take care of yourself."
Old Taoist Songhe didn't seem to expect Qingyang to say such an answer. For a moment, he was stunned and said, "the road of cultivating immortals is ethereal. Is it something that ordinary people can touch?"
Qingyang's eyes were very firm and said, "no matter how difficult the road of cultivating immortality is, disciple will always go on. Master is so kind to disciple that he will support disciple's decision?"
Qingyang said so. Old Taoist Songhe could only give him a disappointed look and said, "in that case, there's nothing to say about being a teacher. You'd better fix your fairy."
After that, there was a sudden trance around. The Taoist temple didn't know where to go, and the hill disappeared. Qingyang appeared by a white lake. The lake was small, only more than ten miles around. The lake was white sand and pebbles, reflecting the whole lake white.
The lake Qingyang still has some impressions. It seems to be called Baishou lake. Qingyang met Yu Mengmiao here at the beginning. Later, he also formed a golden pill here. It is also because of his marriage. Once Yu Mengmiao became white headed, they have been almost separated by Yin and Yang since then.
Baishou lake is the place where the two people fall in love and cause permanent regret. Therefore, this place has been deeply imprinted in Qingyang's heart. If time can come again, Qingyang will definitely prevent Yu Mengmiao from doing so and will never hurt Yu Mengmiao for his own sake.
Just now, the disappointed expression of Songhe Laodao makes Qingyang heartache. So far, Qingyang has not come out of the lost emotion. Now he sees the Baishou lake that makes him remember deeply, and thinks of all kinds of regret scenes. The emotion in Qingyang's heart is more complex and unspeakable.
Qingyang wandered along the edge of Baishou lake. For a time, he was confused. He didn't know how to relieve the feeling of guilt, pain and loss.
Unknowingly, Qingyang came to the other side of Baishou lake. Through a small forest, a woman appeared in front. The man turned his back to Qingyang and sat on the edge of Baishou lake. His back was slim. Looking at his clothes, he looked very similar to the man in his memory. He seemed to feel the approach of Qingyang. The back suddenly turned his head and smiled like a flower and said, "brother Qingyang, are you coming?"
This woman's appearance can be called stunning. She is beautiful but not beautiful, proud but not powerful, clear but not cold. She is almost beautiful to the top. Who else can such an amazing woman except Yu Mengmiao? Since she sacrificed herself for Qingyang jiedan more than 100 years ago, Yu Mengmiao never woke up. Unexpectedly, Qingyang saw her here today and didn't know what to say for a while.
After a long time, Qingyang murmured, "Miaomiao, is that you?"
Yu Mengmiao said with a smile, "it's me, brother Qingyang. Don't you recognize me?"
"Miaomiao, are you all right now?" said Qingyang.
Yu Mengmiao was puzzled by Qingyang's question and said, "brother Qingyang, what's the matter with you today? Why did you suddenly ask such a strange question? Since you broke through the golden elixir realm, Shifu agreed to our marriage. We have lived together and flown together these years and made a pair of immortal couples by the Baishou lake. How happy are you? Of course I'm doing well?"
Yu Mengmiao's words reminded Qingyang of some past events. In Jiuxian City, Yu Mengmiao's master duanqing fairy had no objection to their relationship. As a result, because Qingyang failed to tie the pill, the duanqing fairy changed her mind, forcibly took Yu Mengmiao away, and even killed the elder martial sister who complained for them. Only then did a series of things happen. If Qingyang tied the pill at the beginning There is no failure, but the success of the advanced golden elixir. I'm afraid the later outcome is the same as what Yu Mengmiao said now. They live together and fly together in Baishou lake to be a couple of gods and immortals.
If it was in the past, Qingyang would be very satisfied with such a life. At that time, he didn't know the relationship between Yuan Ying and the five elements, and didn't feel that he had the opportunity to spy on Yuan Ying. The golden elixir might be the end. In that case, why not live a happy life according to his heart?
Now it's different. Qingyang has become a monk Yuanying. It doesn't seem too difficult for him to break through the God. More importantly, he understands the outside world and knows that there is a higher realm and higher pursuit above the God. Of course, he doesn't want to waste his life.
Thinking of this, Qingyang said, "Miao Miao, I'm afraid I can't be here with you."
Hearing Qingyang's words, Yu Mengmiao couldn't help trembling in his heart and said, "brother Qingyang, don't you like living such a life? Are you leaving me?"
Qingyang said, "yes, if we don't advance, we will retreat. We can't indulge in this gentle village. The farther we go, the higher we can stand. We should all pursue higher."
Qingyang's words didn't move Yu Mengmiao. She shook her head, and there was a trace of tears in her eyes. She said, "the road of cultivating immortality has no end. If you cut off seven emotions and six desires, what can you do further? What can you do if you stand higher? Brother Qingyang, I always thought I was the most important in your mind, but I didn't expect that what you value more is your own road of cultivating immortality."
