Chapter 685 Reincarnation Resurrection
"Are you ready to face the hardships of life? You will meet a lot of people, make enemies, and maybe fall in love with someone, but in the end it will be difficult to get what you want. Even so, you still have to go out?"
An Xin looked at An Zizai and asked in a gloomy tone.
When An Zizai heard this, he was immediately surprised because his master finally gave in.
"Gains and losses are all my destiny. I just want to take a look. I don't have to get anything." An Zizai looked up at his master and answered seriously.
Seeing his expression, An Xin sighed. She took out her own Taoist Six Paths Mirror, handed it to An Zizai, and said, "This is my magic weapon. I'll lend it to you. Go visit Junior Brother Chen Chuan and take out this mirror. He will meet you. Just tell him that I want you to practice swordsmanship with him."
An Zizai took the Six Paths Mirror and was about to say something when An Xin handed him a jade pendant, saying that it could guide him in the right direction.
"You should leave now, or I will regret it." An Xin said indifferently.
Gu An turned around to look at An Zizai and said with a smile: "Look how angry you made your master. This is really treasonous!"
An Zizai was originally grateful to him for his previous words, but after hearing these words, the gratitude in his heart disappeared.
"Master, I will be back!"
An Zizai quickly knelt down and kowtowed to An Xin, then stood up, glared at Gu An, and turned away.
An Xin watched An Zizai disappear into the horizon, then bowed to Gu An and left silently.
Gu An did not comfort An Xin, but instead had a playful mood as if he was watching a show.
“People always yearn for freedom. The more difficult the situation, the stronger their desire for freedom becomes.”
Gu An said slowly, he had accepted many disciples and understood this point too well.
However, everything has to be experienced once. If An Xin wants to accept a disciple, he has to face his disciple's thoughts. After all, the disciple is a human being and has his own thoughts.
At this time, the fishing rod trembled, and finally a fish was hooked.
Gu An immediately gripped the fishing rod tightly with both hands and began to battle wits and courage with the fish in the lake.
The water splashed and sprinkled on the leaves. The sunlight illuminated the water droplets, making them crystal clear, as if they contained small worlds.
An Zizai's departure made Wu Shi Dao Chang deserted again, and other disciples also began to practice in seclusion one after another.
For Gu An, whether the dojo is lively or not is not the most important thing. In his eyes, time will only pass faster and faster.
Eight hundred years later.
Gu An came to this place to fish again. While waiting for the fish to bite, he held a book in his other hand.
The sun was shining brightly, making the lake sparkle, and a gentle breeze blew past, ruffling his hair.
A figure walked out of the woods behind him. It was a man dressed in knight's cloth, with disheveled hair, a weathered face, a circle of stubble around his mouth, and sadness in his eyes.
It was An Zizai.
Compared with eight hundred years ago, he is like a completely different person. He no longer has the spirit he once had, and his temperament seems decadent.
An Zizai looked at Gu An's back, a little dazed, and his eyes changed slightly.
He suddenly thought of the scene when he left. At that time, his master was also fishing here with his back to him. His back didn't seem to have changed at all, giving him a feeling of traveling through time and space.
"Disciple pays homage to Grandmaster!"
An Zizai came behind Gu An, bowed and saluted, his tone revealing loneliness.
"I'm glad you're back."
Gu An responded without turning back to look at An Zizai.
He already knew what An Zi had experienced over the years. Eight hundred years seemed like just one day to him, but for many people, it was a long time.
An Zizai had experienced a lot in these eight hundred years. He had witnessed the tragic deaths of his brothers and loved ones, and had failed to protect those who trusted him. Too many blows had caused him to lose his former sharpness.
If it weren't for the protection of An Xin's Six Paths Mirror, he would have died countless times.
An Zizai raised his eyes and looked at Gu An. He took a deep breath and asked, "Grandmaster, is there really justice and fairness in this world? Why do some people do so many evil things but still enjoy the love of the world? Even if their sect knows about their crimes, they still cover them up?"
The person he was talking about was a great monk called Dao Zang Zizaixian, who came from Beidou Sect, one of the hundred religions in the world.
The disciples of that great monk worked for him, arresting mortals among the people, and even some immortal cultivators were captured by him. He was capable of all kinds of evil. An Zizai and his friends stood up for justice and thus offended the disciples of the great monk, which in turn triggered a series of hatreds.
An Zizai had been hunted for hundreds of years and had also been dormant for a hundred years. He finally killed that disciple, but only then did he come into contact with the truth. Faced with the suppression of Daozang Zizaixian, he was helpless and could only watch the people he cared about die.
The Beidou Sect even wanted to hunt him down. If he had not escaped to Chen Chuan's Sword Sect in time, he would probably have died.
The Sword Sect is far inferior to the Beidou Sect, but the legend of Wu Shi is still in the world, so the Beidou Sect is afraid of it.
"The path to immortality is not a matter of days and nights. What you have seen is only a fragment of the vast world. When you look back many years later, the things that puzzle you will surely have answers. Those evil and seemingly powerful ones will also be annihilated. As for right and wrong, future generations will judge for themselves."
Gu An answered nonchalantly that he would only protect the lives of any disciple who went out, but would not help them with revenge, so he would not interfere with An Zizai's hatred. If he wanted revenge, he should practice hard and rely on himself.
An Zizai's expression became complicated, and he continued to ask: "Master, you must have lived a long life. In your opinion, is justice supreme in this world, or is it the law of the jungle?"
"Looking back, no matter who has the last laugh, in the face of history, we must always hold high the banner of justice. This shows that at least in this world, justice is what all living beings hope for, and no one can shake it."
This was the time Gu An was most patient with An Zizai. He did not tease or ridicule him, but answered every one of his questions seriously.
After hearing this, An Zizai fell into silence.
A thought also flashed through his mind.
That is to kneel down and beg the master to avenge him. The Beidou Sect can stand up for its disciples, so the master might do the same.
But this thought came and went quickly.
After all, his hatred for Beidou Sect was such that even if Beidou Sect was unjust, he was the one who took the initiative to interfere.
Moreover, his master and his grandfather did not want him to go out, but he insisted on going out to gain experience. Sometimes, he would wonder if he had not gone out, would those people have escaped? The more An Zizai thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he almost couldn't breathe.
"I can go to the reincarnation to find all the people you care about and revive them, but you have to consider one thing. They may have a better life in their next life. After they are resurrected, they may also experience more suffering. You cannot predict anything."
Gu An's voice floated over, causing An Zizai's face to change drastically, with an expression of disbelief in his eyes.
Reincarnation? Resurrection?
An Zizai knew that his master was very powerful, but he had no idea how powerful he was. But when he heard his master's words today, he was shocked, and the whole world in front of him seemed to brighten up all of a sudden.
