Chapter 787 True or False, Ask Yourself
"Bring him in."
Gu An responded and An Zizai went there immediately.
He already knew who the visitor was and what his intentions were.
Almost all the people he could meet in person now were his old friends from his time at Taixuan Sect.
The old friends who are not by his side are all living their own lives, with their own hardships and happiness, and not everyone can be secretly protected by him.
About half an incense stick of time later, An Zizai came into the yard with someone.
This is a man wearing a simple Taoist robe. He has a strong body and an unkempt face, and has the temperament of a hero.
This person's face is somewhat similar to Li Ya's, but he looks more weathered.
It was Li Ya’s younger brother, Li Lingtian.
Li Lingtian once practiced in the Third Medicine Valley and had a very good relationship with Yang Jian. Now that he has lived to this day, he has already reached the realm of true immortality with divine thoughts.
Once upon a time, he had talents that surpassed Li Ya, but now, Li Ya has become someone he looks up to and a legend in their Li family.
Li Lingtian looked at Gu An's back, his whole body trembling with excitement, and his eyes even turned red.
An Zizai was hesitating whether to leave. At this time, Gu An's voice came: "Zizai, listen to this too. You will be responsible for bringing people to help him when the time comes."
Hearing this, An Zizai breathed a sigh of relief and agreed immediately.
He was very curious about the relationship between Li Lingtian and Gu An, and when he heard that he could go out for a walk, he was secretly happy.
Now that he is in charge of all matters big and small, he is bound to be tired. If he can go out for a walk, it will be a relaxation.
When Li Lingtian heard Gu An directly say that he wanted to help him, he could no longer control his emotions and fell to his knees.
"Senior, I am here for Yang Ni. You should still remember her. She offended a great cultivator of the Tianling Dao League and was imprisoned in the Tianling Dao League. She was wronged, but I can't find anyone to help me. Even my father doesn't have that much ability."
Li Lingtian gritted his teeth and said that the Yang Ni he mentioned was the younger sister of Li Ya's mother. She once joined the Epiphyllum Sect to investigate the cause of death of Li Ya's mother, and was also sent by Li Xuandao to protect Gu An.
Gu An hadn't seen her for many years, but he still remembered that heroic woman in his mind.
When Li Lingtian talked about grudges, his voice choked with sobs, and he no longer had the demeanor of the conceited young man he used to be.
Gu An turned around, looked at him calmly, and listened to his story of grudges.
Before he came, Gu An saw the whole cause and effect at a glance. It was nothing more than a struggle for interests. After Li Lingtian and Yang Ni joined the Tianling Taoist Alliance, they offended an internal force. Gu An was not very interested in this. He just wanted to make sure that Yang Ni was indeed wronged.
Although Gu An protects his old friends, he also knows how to distinguish between things. If it is his own fault, he will turn a blind eye and let his old friends suffer.
After Li Lingtian finished speaking, he looked at Gu An expectantly.
The Tianling Taoist Alliance is very powerful, and their rival is also very powerful. That is an eternal giant family with an existence beyond the Free Fairyland, but he believes that no family is good enough in front of Gu An.
Gu An smiled and helped Li Lingtian up. He said with emotion: "How old were you when you came to me? Now you can stand on your own. Things have really changed."
These words made Li Lingtian burst into tears. In his heart, Gu An had always been his elder, but he hadn't seen him for so many years, so he felt very restrained. In his mind, Gu An's face and personality had become blurred. Before coming here, he had thought of all kinds of possibilities, but he had never expected that Gu An would be so kind to him.
You know, even his father, who once loved him, now feels distant from him.
Gu An began to recall the past, and his words brought Li Lingtian back to the past.
An Zizai was also very curious about Gu An's past, he stood aside and listened carefully, and later in the conversation, Shen Zhen and Shangguan Xian'er also came out to join in the fun.
Shen Zhen still remembered Li Lingtian. Seeing how miserable this boy was now, she felt very sad.
The best thing she had ever done in her life was to follow Gu An.
At first, she just wanted to escape from her own sect, and since she and Gu An got along very well, she cut off all ties and just followed Gu An.
Unexpectedly, Gu An turned out to be the Sword Master of Fudao.
As time went by, Shen Zhen couldn't figure out why she followed Gu An back then, and occasionally she would wonder if she had devoted herself to him because she saw that Gu An had an extraordinary side.
No matter what, the ending is good. She feels that she is the luckiest person in the world, even luckier than An Xin, Tian Yaoer and others.
It was not until the evening that An Zizai took Li Lingtian away. He planned to call several Wu Shi disciples and go to Tianling Taoist Alliance in person to rescue Yang Ni.
Shangguan Xian'er also wanted to go, leaving only Gu An and Chen Zhen in the courtyard.
Shen Zhen looked at Gu An's profile and couldn't help but be lost in thought.
What kind of trouble could make this man frown?
What is the world like in his eyes? How does he view the people around him?
The appearance of Li Lingtian triggered Shen Zhen's past memories, and also caused her a lot of confusion and curiosity.
Gu An looked at the horizon and said, "Do you think a life without immortality is important?"
Shen Zhen came back to his senses and replied, "Of course it's important. Being able to walk through the world alive, no matter whether it's hard or happy, at least you've lived, right?"
"But for many people, death is worse than living."
"That was when they encountered hardships. Before the hardships, they also enjoyed being alive."
"After that person dies, what is the meaning of everything he did in his life? Just like the Taixuan Sect in the past, too many people have died, and even your and my names have been forgotten. There is no trace of them in this world."
Gu An finished speaking and tilted his head to look at Shen Zhen.
Shen Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "Why must it have meaning? People live to live, and everything they experience is their own feelings. Why must they pursue leaving something in the world?"
Gu An smiled and said, "Yes, your own feelings are the most important. Why bother about other things? Don't add to your troubles."
Hearing this, Shen Zhen was stunned. She glared at Gu An and asked, "Tell me the truth. Can you hear other people's inner thoughts?"
"I'm not that great."
"really?"
"really."
Chen Zhen smiled. After Gu An's guidance, she felt that her confusion was meaningless. As long as she lived a good and carefree life, and Gu An didn't despise her, wasn't that enough?
Gu An continued, "In fact, over the years, I often went to the mortal world and experienced different lives. I would marry and have children, and I would also be someone else's son, but I just let those wives and concubines think that something happened between us so that they would have more memories, including my parents. The relationships were all given to them by me. Of course, these identities of mine were what they wanted, and my so-called children were just created out of thin air by me. Even if the souls of these children settled in the reincarnation and became real living beings, I still have some feelings."
"From my perspective, everything is fake, but to them, I am real. Everything that happened between them and me is something they have truly experienced. They will never know that my identity is a fake existence, and they may even forget their own lives in the cycle of reincarnation."
Shen Zhen listened to his words and fell into silence.
Gu An looked at her and asked a question, "This is the difference brought about by the realm gap. I can make common people unable to distinguish between the true and the false, but do you think there is any existence that can make you and I unable to distinguish between the true and the false? Is the so-called heavenly way, the great way, really real?"
He thought Shen Zhen would think about this question for a while, but she answered without hesitation: "Whether it is true or false, we are practicing. The so-called asking is to ask ourselves, the meaning of our existence, and what we want? If you want something real, as long as you work hard, even if it is fake, you still have hope of it coming true, right?"
“Even if you tell me that everything now is fake, I will still be grateful to you, because I cherish everything now and enjoy every day of it.”
After saying that, she raised her eyes to look at Gu An, staring at him steadily.
