Chapter 403: Meeting is fate, parting is also fate
The boat floated steadily in the river, and as the old man rowed, it slowly drifted towards the other side.
Although it is a river, it is calm and peaceful.
Long Qi couldn't help but feel curious, so he reached his hand into the river. The feeling on his hand didn't feel like water, but he couldn't tell what it was. If he had to describe it, it felt like a few strands of something indescribable.
Is this the source of the weak water?
"Young man, it's better not to touch the things in the river." The old man advised while paddling the boat, but his eyes were still fixed on the other side, without wavering at all.
Long Qi was puzzled: "Senior, why do you say that?"
“Things in the river are destined to flow to the mortal world.”
"Fate?" Long Qi looked at the river water in his hand, his eyes full of confusion.
"Things in the underworld were all transformed by Hou Tu. Everything is in the cycle of reincarnation, and so is fate." The old man propped up the oar. "Be it love or resentment, all things are connected by fate. We endure the sufferings of life after life in order to cultivate our bond."
"Now you hold the fate of others in your hands, disrupting their destiny. I wonder how many lifetimes it will take before we can be together again."
The old man sighed and said, "As the saying goes, 'A hundred times we pass each other, we glance back; a thousand times we glance back, we sleep together'. Meeting is fate, and parting is also fate."
Upon hearing this, Long Qi quickly poured the river water in his hand back, but the old man started laughing again.
"Since I have already gotten involved in other people's fate, it's too late to let go now. I will have to pay it back sooner or later."
Long Qi frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said seriously: "Since I was the one who made the mistake first, if someone comes to find me in the future, I will definitely not refuse."
“Okay, okay!”
The old man stroked his long beard and said "good" three times in a row, but did not say what was good about it. Then he took a sip of wine, rowed the boat by himself, and did not speak again.
But Long Qi was lost in thought again: Is it fate? Is it the same between Lingxiang and him?
Meeting is fate, separation is also fate...
After hearing this, the people around also fell into deep thought.
If it were a few years ago, Zhao Wuyang would definitely not be able to understand this sentence, but the many things he experienced in the past few years, the death of his mother, the changes in the sect, any of which made him feel deeply emotional when he recalled them.
And Ajin.
When he was a child, Ajin had always been between him and his mother. Although he didn't remember many things, those golden eyes were deeply engraved in his heart. No matter how he played, as long as those eyes were there, he would feel at ease.
I don’t know where the fate of meeting Ajin came from, but separation seemed inevitable. It was thanks to Elder Fu Cang’s secret guidance that Ajin was able to escape from the sea of suffering.
Elder Fu Cang...
Zhao Wuyang sighed lightly, his mature look was quite funny. Under normal circumstances, Xinyi would have rubbed his hair lovingly, but now Xinyi was scrutinizing the current situation.
Long Qi is a straightforward person, and Zhao Wuyang is simple-minded. The two of them may not think of this, but other people are different. They will definitely hear one or two things.
The old man's words seem inconspicuous, but they are actually very meaningful.
Xinyi glanced at Liu Xia, who was sitting at the stern of the boat, propping up his chin and staring at the upper reaches of the river in a daze.
The meeting between Long Qi and Liu Xia is also a kind of fate.
At the beginning, Xinyi was ordered by Bai Wuchang to keep an eye on Lingxiang. She had met Liu Xia before and secretly guided him to the whereabouts of the eldest daughter of the Liu family. Unexpectedly, she ran into Long Qi and Chi Yanzi who were going to rescue Lingxiang in the demon cave. What she didn't expect was that Chi Yanzi had already dealt with the Liu family.
Chi Yanzi was teasing Adao, and there was also Cheng Qi who was joining in, as well as Zhan Li who was also very interested. These four people seemed to have no reaction, but based on Xinyi's understanding of Chi Yanzi and Cheng Qi, these two people were just hiding their feelings, but they must have felt something in their hearts.
Besides, these four people have more or less relationship with Lingxiang
This is simply a web. Rather than saying that it is a wonderful fate, it is better to say that everyone is caught in it, and the one who threaded the needle is none other than the Fairy Tumi.
Whether it was the destruction of the three tribes or the turmoil in the world, it seemed that they were all inseparable from the Fairy Tumi. However, Xinyi could not figure out why the legendary Fairy Tumi would make such a plan.
"What are you thinking about?"
Sang Mu suddenly spoke, interrupting Xin Yi's thoughts. He glanced at Sang Mu calmly and said, "Nothing."
As for Sang Mu, Xinyi had only heard of him when she was young in the demon army camp. The rumored wolf-head was ruthless and strict in his rule, but no one knew what kind of person he was.
At that time, she only knew that Sang Mu was a human, but he was not ostracized like Xinyi. Xinyi was puzzled at the time. How could the demons use a mortal? After all, the demons always regarded mortals as ants.
etc……
He is a witch, could it be...
Xinyi glanced at Sang Mu again, but his face was covered by a hood and could not be seen.
Just as I was about to ask a few more questions, the old man suddenly spoke.
"We're here, time to get off the boat."
Looking at the narrow river, it was somewhat unbelievable that it took half an incense stick of time to cross the bank.
The group got off the boat and were thanking the old man when a lot of people suddenly jumped out from behind them. Upon closer inspection, they found that they were demons!
Several people were shocked when they saw this. Long Qi drew his sword and prepared to fight, but Xinyi stretched out her hand to block him.
"What are you doing?"
Long Qi was puzzled and asked Xinyi. Xinyi did not answer, but just shook her head, indicating that everyone should not be nervous.
At this time, Sang Mu stepped forward and saluted the demons. The demons all retreated to both sides, and a man walked out of the crowd.
The man was covered in a black robe and was tall. Long Qi felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him. Moreover, there was a scar on his face from the top of his skull to his neck, which was very eye-catching and ruined his otherwise handsome face. If he had seen such a person before, there was no reason for him not to have an impression of him.
Long Qi racked his brains and thought hard, when suddenly a figure appeared in his mind.
"Ah! It's you!"
It was the demon who took away Lingxiang that day!
That’s right, the person who came was Wu Minjun, but Wu Minjun was not wearing the ghost mask at the moment, so Long Qi did not recognize him for a while.
Wu Minjun didn't say much, he walked straight past the crowd and went towards the old man. But when he passed by Chi Yanzi, he glanced at him inadvertently, but did not stop.
"Senior Bo Gao." Wu Minjun bowed solemnly, and the other demons did the same.
This situation made everyone even more confused.
What is this doing?
Paco?
Who is Bo Gao?
At this time, Zhao Wuyang fell into deep thought.
Although Zhao Wuyang was also surprised, he was more curious about the name "Bo Gao". He always felt as if he had seen it somewhere, as if it came out of his mouth, but he could not remember it.
Paco...
Paco...
Paco!
Zhao Wuyang suddenly remembered: "East of Huashan Qingshui, there is a mountain called Zhaoshan. There is a man named Baigao. Baigao rises and falls on this mountain, reaching up to the sky."
It was the immortal mentioned in "Records of Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas"! Rumor has it that this book was written by this person!
Bai Zigao is an immortal!
