Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 524: The Agreement
While calmly looking at the blind old woman, Tang Xiu shook his head and said, "All of you, you mustn't mess around like this, Old Madam. It is not easy to cultivate for a hundred years, to begin with If you cannot break the shackles of your feelings towards the ordinary world, then you will never be able to break this thread with the human world. Once that line is involved by the dark underworld, you will also never be able to transcend worldliness. ”
The blind old woman was silent. Indeed, there was still an unfulfilled desire for him, but to realize his wish was a very difficult effort to realize. He might still not have the means to sever the connection between him and the ordinary world as Tang Xiu had said even if he lived another 100 years. As a result, he only peered at the Heavenly Secret, wanting to find the Eternal World, hoping that he could surpass that secret and hidden world.
"I can't do it!" The blind old woman was silent for a long time before she shook her head and forced a wry smile.
“One should not miss a piece of opportunity. If you cannot transcend worldliness, then you must enter the cycle of Samsara in order to reincarnate, and continue to endure the difficulties and limitations of the bitter world. Why don't you take it? "Tang Xiu said lightly.
"I have to go there. I hope you can help me, ” said the blind old woman.
Tang Xiu was silent for a moment, then he turned to Lulu and Hu Qingsong and said, "Are you two full? If you are, wait for me outside. I'll catch up with you soon. ”
Ouyang Lulu and Hu Qingsong exchanged glances with puzzled expressions. The cruel and profound theory of Taoism uttered by Tang Xiu and the blind old woman was a completely absurd subject. After hesitating for a while, the two obeyed Tang Xiu and walked out.
"Tell me about your origin and history," Tang Xiu said.
"I am of a very common origin," said the blind old woman. "I am from the northwest of Hongdong County, and my bloodline is from the Invisibility Sect. It is a pity that we have revealed too many Heavenly Secrets, so I am the last one left. I was married nine times in the first 50 years of my life, and all of my husbands had an early death because of me. After I turned 70, I traveled north and south, traveling all over the country, but there was no direction I could find, I can't catch the answer to that question either. ”
"So you can say, You no longer have anything that binds You to the world, and You are free from constraints and attachments?" Ask Tang Xiu.
The blind old woman shook her head, “No, I still have one wish. It was to find the tomb of my ancestors. It's a pity that my family's habits are only passed down to men and not to women, so they don't give it to me. The reason why I was able to learn divination was entirely based on self-study on the ancient codes and records left behind by my father's legacy. ”
Tang Xiu nodded, “Since you want me to help and give you some shelter, then let's talk about his condition. ”
"Please say!" Said the blind old woman.
"Give me your life," Tang Xiu said in seriousness.
The blind old woman replied with a smile, “Although I dare not say 'that my fate depends on myself and not the sky', but I also can't let anyone control my life. You are very special; your fate is very interesting. If you really have the ability in this aspect, then take it as you wish. ”
“I'll give you six months to consider it carefully. If you agree, I'll send someone to escort you back here, ” Tang Xiu said slowly after thinking for a moment.
"Half years?" The blind old woman said strangely. "I don't need half a year to think!"
"You might not need it, but I did," Tang Xiu said. “That place has not been rebuilt, and cannot be used for now. Therefore, come here six months later. ”
“Alright!” The blind old woman took her wand and got up from the sofa, saying, “I'll be back here half a year later. If you need anything that needs my help in these six months, you only need to burn three sticks of incense and call the Blind Old Woman three times. I'll come to you as soon as possible. ”
"Understood," Tang Xiu nodded.
After sending her away, Tang Xiu went back inside, looked at Chi Nan who was approaching and said, "Is the family already calm?"
"Yes. I used a special drug to make the whole family unconscious. They will wake up tomorrow morning, "Chi Nan nodded.
“Remember, if they wake up earlier than expected, you must not let them out of the entrance of the Eternal Feast Hall before sunrise tomorrow morning. If ... happens to be, they still insist on leaving and you can no longer stop them, feel free to let one of them out, and then send someone to secretly follow him. After half an hour, if there is no problem endangering the safety of that person, then let the rest go. ”
Chi Nan hesitated before asking, "Boss, do you really believe what that blind old lady said?"
"Yes!" Tang Xiu nodded. “He is not an ordinary person. Don't look at how easily he was beaten back then, and don't think it was because he lost sight that he couldn't see things better than people who could see with their eyes. If not for some special reason, the family would not have been able to move his fingers, let alone hit him. ”
“Special reasons? What exactly is that? "Chi Nan was confused.
“He wants to grab my attention, wants me to go forward. She ... wanted to take me to him, "tang Xiu said lightly
"Can't he look for you?" Chi Nan frowned.
Chi Nan smiled, “Bos, do you have any relationship problems with Teacher Han? He seems to have something to complain about you, but the way you treat him is also too .. ”
Tang Xiu glared at him and reprimanded, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. In short, just deal with her as little as possible as I said. ”
Therefore, Tang Xiu directly left the Eternal Feast Hall. After looking around and seeing Lulu and Hu Qingsong waiting for him outside, he said, "Lulu, I'll be back on campus for afternoon classes. You can proceed to attend to your belongings as well! I will go to Paradise Manor when I have free time. ”
There was a hint of unwillingness and aversion in Lulu's eyes, but she still nodded and said, “Then, I'll be back first. If you don't come find me, then I'll go to your college to find you. ”
"understand!" Tang Xiu nodded and gave her the keys to his car. The car was one of the luxury cars in his garage, but Tang Xiu usually did not use it because he did not want to attract the attention of others.
Midday, 1pm. Tang Xiu and Hu Qingsong had already returned to Shanghai University. After arriving at the dormitory, they did not see Yue Kai there. Tang Xiu rarely lived on campus, so he started cleaning his bed as dust fell on it, and many things were put under his desk.
Finished with the cleaning, Tang Xiu turned his gaze to Hu Qingsong, who was lying on her bed with her hands as a pillow. It is unknown what he is thinking at the moment. He smiled at her and said, "Hey, don't divulge anything about my problem to anyone!"
"Quiet, Dude! I understand! ”Hu Qingsong nodded.
Replying to a calm smile in response, Tang Xiu then patted the side of his bed and said, "Anyway, there is an hour left for class, stay here if you want! I'm going to the college library. ”
"understand!" Hu Qingsong replied, and continued to think about her own matters.
Tang Xiu was aware that Hu Qingsong was suffering from a huge impact today. Hu Qingsong might have a rough and uninhibited outer appearance, yet she was smooth on the inside and was a very intelligent individual. Maybe he didn't feel like thinking about something in the past, but now, he might start thinking about the path he was going to take.
Contemplation is a sign of maturity!
Tang Xiu was indeed worried that their relationship would deteriorate after Hu Qingsong found out about him. But now it seems that his worries are baseless and unnecessary. Instead, she has begun to learn to reflect on how she will fit into society, as well as start planning her own life for the future.
Tang Xiu picked up some books and then went to the campus library. By the time he got there, there was a strange vibe in the library, which was often quiet, but now very much alive. The students in the group of three to five whispered amongst themselves as he walked in. What puzzled him was that most of them were male students.
"Teacher, what's going on?" Surprisingly asked Tang Xiu at the library guard after returning the books.
"What else? The young men of today are all impatient to hurry up and do everything to seduce the beautiful girls. Oh, how I miss my youth .. ”Master of a middle-aged woman in her 40s sighed. He shook his head at the same time, as he seemed to fall into his memories!
A smile rang in the corner of Tang Xiu's mouth. He understood that the children were right at the peak of his teenage years. If he had not lived for 10,000 years in the Eternal World, he would be like them, and could not wait to seduce beautiful girls every time he saw them.
After returning the books, Tang Xiu walked in. He had not had time to study and read books because of the many problems that had come to him recently, so he decided to immerse himself in school life now. He was a student, and having the appearance of a student was a must; improving and sharpening his knowledge by reading, studying, and studying diligently.
As he passed through the row of bookshelves, he glanced in the direction where many students were gathered. However, when his gaze passed through the crowd, a smile immediately deciphered the corner of his mouth when he saw Jiang Feiyan, who was sitting down and reading the book quietly at the innermost corner table. Even though the person he saw was Jiang Feiyan, he was very confident that the person who could attract the attention of this many students was definitely not him, as he did not have the allure to drag them all along.
It must be Mu Wanying!
Her exquisite appearance immediately surfaced in Tang Xiu's mind as she silently shook her head. Whether it was her appearance, figure, or temperament, Mu Wanying was indeed an outstanding upper-class beautiful woman. However, the wound in his heart, did not allow him to have such a complicated emotional connection with her.
Once in the past she had deceived herself that she would find the only love of her entire life, to have a romantic life with him, marry him, and then live a happy, blessed life forever.
The period of time he spent with her in the Eternal World was the most fulfilling and happiest time he had ever had. He even hoped that such a situation would last forever, until the heavens and earth grew old, until the oceans dried up and the rocks disappeared, but their loyalty would remain unchanged, no matter what. He even made the decision that even if he finally made it across his tribulation, he would do whatever was necessary to cross the ocean, by trick or deceive, he would do whatever was necessary to cross the ocean, only to stay and accompany him in the Eternal World.
However, the result was Nanke's dream, an empty and hollow beautiful dream; for the dream was then shattered by the time he woke up, and he was then left to die and disappear, leaving behind all his pain and sorrow that consumed his entire heart.
Flinched from her daydream, Tang Xiu did not go there and simply turned around to head to the book area. After picking up some books, he planned to go straight to his dorm after registering the borrowed books.
However, even though he had gone to great lengths to disguise himself, many people were still able to recognize him, as they rushed to intercept and surround him as if he was a huge star. The situation left him helpless and also depressed. He only hoped that, as time passed, everyone would gradually forget his identity as a heavenly physician.
