Traveling Through the Heavens Starting From the Prequel of Lotus Lantern

Chapter 156 The Weight of Fate

In a daze, Bai Suzhen pulled Yang Jiao to a place densely covered with stars.

There was also a small melon-skin boat standing not far from them.

As soon as the two landed on the boat, Bai Suzhen motioned to Yang Jiao to enter the cabin.

When Yang Jiao stepped into the cabin, he saw a pot of fine wine and several steaming side dishes.

After a while, the two sat looking at each other.

"Sir, come here." Bai Suzhen first poured a full glass of wine for Yang Jiao, then peeled off the lotus pods and handed it to him.

Yang Jiao took the lotus seeds from Bai Suzhen's hand, and her heart began to beat uncontrollably.

After a while, he slowly said:

"Miss Bai, what do you mean?"

"Guard skin boat, a pot of wine, a few side dishes, and this sky full of stars."

"Is it possible that you regard Xu Xian as your former friend?"

Bai Suzhen's eyes flashed slightly, so she sincerely begged:

"Sir, you are so similar to my friend. Since we are friends, can you satisfy my only wish?"

After Yang Jiao took a deep look at Bai Suzhen, he reached out and picked up the jug to pour her a glass of wine.

"please."

In an instant, Bai Suzhen's brows relaxed and her eyes smiled.

Half an hour later.

The two of them sat on the bow of the boat together, immersed in the starry sky and saying nothing for a long time.

Suddenly, Bai Suzhen asked:

"Sir, do you still remember the umbrella we shared?"

"Never forgotten."

However, when she heard this, she lowered her head slightly sadly and said softly:

"Never. But I just forgot."

After Yang Jiao heard it with sharp ears, he understood that the umbrella Bai Suzhen was talking about was the umbrella that the two of them had experienced wind and rain together for more than half a step.

"Miss Bai, it seems that your friend is both your destiny and your calamity."

"You are going through a love crisis."

Bai Suzhen was startled, recalling all the previous events and her current state of mind. Only then did she realize that she had met the person in front of her by accident.

Her thousand-year-old state of mind, where the clouds were calm and the wind was gentle, and her heart was as calm as water, and she stayed out of things no longer existed.

"Xu Xian hopes that after tonight, Miss Bai, you will no longer be trapped by love, and can always remain clear and calm enough to be firm in your original purpose."

Yang Jiao said in a deep voice:

"So don't be entangled or hesitant, stick to your heart, be resolute and decisive, and devote yourself to what you want to do."

Bai Suzhen raised her eyes and looked at Yang Jiao with an emotional expression, and heard him suddenly ask:

"Do you know why I suddenly woke up and wanted to practice Taoism?"

Bai Suzhen shook her head gently.

"As I was approaching Qiantang County, I suddenly woke up one day, as if I had been given a slap in the face."

"In a daze, I walked to the Qiantang River, looked back on my life, and completely woke up."

"In an instant, there was a feeling of a tide coming from the Qiantang River. Today I know that I am my enlightenment."

"So, the desire to seek immortality and Taoism came into being."

Bai Suzhen thought that the wake-up call Yang Jiao mentioned was the ruthless mallet, but she did not expect that this mallet could not only cause amnesia, but also have the ability to achieve enlightenment.

"On the Broken Bridge, why did you and Miss Xiaoqing say that I had read a few books? It was because my sister sent me to private school."

"Although I have the heart to study diligently, I am not a good scholar after all. After a few years, I will achieve nothing."

Yang Jiao looked up at the stars in the sky and said sadly:

"On the tide of the Qiantang River, I realized clearly that I was deeply afraid that I was not a beautiful jade, so I didn't dare to think hard about it, but I half-believed that I was a beautiful jade, so I didn't want to live in mediocrity and mix with the rubble. Together."

"So I couldn't study well, so I studied medical books, and I also liked to meddle in some nosy things that I couldn't manage. Finally, my brother-in-law arranged to be an apprentice at Baozhitang."

"Son."

Bai Suzhen was shocked by Yang Jiao's true feelings and didn't know how to comfort her.

"In this world, there are thousands of creatures, no matter who they are, they either work hard enough to be outstanding, or they are too lazy to accept their destiny."

"What I fear most is that my knowledge is broadened, but my hard work fails to keep up. As a result, my heart is extremely noble and my character is extremely weak."

When Yang Jiao said this, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Bai Suzhen:

"Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as gullible dogs. The saints are unkind and regard the common people as gullible dogs."

"What is a cud dog?" he asked himself and answered:

"Straw sacrifice."

"So, I plan to enter Taoism and no longer live in confusion between heaven and earth."

"No wonder I was still practicing hard until late at night." Bai Suzhen had some realization.

"I practice hard not to prove how hardworking and good I am."

"But when unexpected and uncontrollable factors come, my growing state of cultivation can become my confidence to resist all wind and rain."

"The reason why sentient beings in the world want to practice cultivation and embark on the immortal path is to control their destiny as much as possible."

"In fact, the true meaning of practice lies in two words, choice."

Bai Suzhen looked at Yang Jiao half-understanding, then listened to him continue:

"The world is never static for a moment, and the sum of personal changes is the change of the entire world."

"But there are differences in the extent to which personal changes affect changes in the world."

"Some people work hard all day long, but they can't make any waves."

"Some people turn the world upside down just because of a single thought."

"Such is the weight of fate."

Yang Jiao said with sonorous force:

"But a weak person, facing a fate as thick and broad as the sky, has no power to resist and can only wait for the trial without restraint."

"Only become a truly strong man, then when fate whispers to the strong, you cannot withstand the storm."

"After a strong person easily overturns this so-called fate, he can sneer and whisper back, I am the storm."

Finally, Yang Jiao asked continuously from the bottom of his heart:

"Miss Bai, these are the main reasons for my practice. I hope you can understand what you want after listening to them."

"After all, it is a fleeting love."

"It's still the right to choose."

At this time, Bai Suzhen looked stunned, as if she was deep in thought. She was first moved by Yang Jiao's self-analysis.

When he mentioned the word fate again, I felt the same feeling.

As a monster who has been burdened with sin since she was born, she is unwilling to give in to her own destiny, so she devotes herself to cultivation, be kind to others, and does not get involved in all kinds of right and wrong.

Not to mention collaborating with the people in the demonic path, sucking in the yang energy and soul of mortals to quickly increase their cultivation and mana.

The reason is that one day, she can achieve righteousness and grasp her fate of being slaughtered and shouted at.

Bai Suzhen thought about this, and her Taoist heart became firmer unknowingly.

Seeing this, Yang Jiao finally relaxed calmly. After a lot of talking, he finally achieved some results.

In this way, there should not be so many nonsense things in the original plot.
