"Why is that?"
"Why? Ha! " Gu Qingfeng said with a smile, "Living in the world, every word and action, even a thought will produce different karma. How can you cut it all off, how can you cut it all off?"
"Amitabha, Layman Ancient's understanding of karma is much higher than I imagined."
"I can't say that I understand, at most I just feel a little emotional."
Yes.
Emotional.
He had never deliberately sought out any cause and effect, but ever since he woke up in this world, he had experienced many things that made Gu Qingfeng understand many things.
"Alright, let's stop here for today. Let's continue next time when we have time."
Just as Gu Qingfeng was about to leave, the old monk's voice came again.
"Layman Ancient, please wait."
Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?"
"Wudao Mountain is about to appear in this world, Layman Ancient should have heard of it?"
Gu Qingfeng nodded and said, "Yes, I heard of it."
"What plans do you have?"
"Plans? I don't have any plans. "Gu Qingfeng shook his head and said," What plans can I have? "
"Forgive me for saying, but when Wudao Mountain appears, Layman Ancient will encounter a trial of death."
"Trial of death? I can't avoid it? "
"Since it is a trial of death, how can I avoid it? I can't avoid it or avoid it. "
"So this trial of death, I have to bear it whether I want to or not?"
Even though the old monk didn't say it clearly, Gu Qingfeng could more or less guess what the trial of death was about. He said, "What about life and death?"
"I don't know."
"It's right that you don't know. If everything can be deduced and divined, then wouldn't life be too boring?"
"If I guessed correctly, Layman Ancient should have some feeling about this trial of death."
The old monk was right. Gu Qingfeng could feel a sense of impending danger, and this sense of danger was unprecedented. At least, Gu Qingfeng had cultivated for 500 years and experienced countless life and death situations, but he had never had such a feeling. This feeling was like heaven and earth were splitting apart, like the end of the world was coming.
"And then? What do you want to say?"
"Ancient Benefactor, please don't misunderstand. I don't have any other intentions. I just want to know how Ancient Benefactor is going to deal with the Wudao Mountain that is about to appear, which is also your death calamity."
"This sounds a little rare." Gu Qingfeng squinted at the misty temple on the misty mountain and said, "We've known each other for so long, but you've never cared about my life or death. This time, you suddenly care about me. I'm really not used to it. It's quite awkward."
"In the past, Old Monk really didn't care about Ancient Hermit's life and death. That was because Old Monk knew that Ancient Hermit was blessed by the heavens and could turn misfortune into fortune."
"And then? This time, the heavens didn't help a good person like me? Can't everything turn to luck? "
"This tribulation is no ordinary tribulation. It is a tribulation of death. Furthermore, it is a tribulation of death that is predestined by fate."
"Is that so …"
Although the old monk's words sounded serious, Gu Qingfeng still didn't take it to heart. He only asked, "Can I ask you a question first? If I die like this, where will the Silent Bone Jade go? And where will you, who are hiding in the Silent Bone Jade, go?"
"Old Monk doesn't know."
"Very good. Then I'll ask you another question. Do you want me to die or live?"
The old monk was silent this time.
After a long period of silence, he replied, "Old Monk also doesn't know."
"Hahahaha!"
Gu Qingfeng suddenly laughed out loud for no reason. His laughter was vigorous and especially wild. After laughing, he said, "Old Monk, old Monk, it seems that you are also confused."
The old monk asked, "What do you mean?"
"There is one thing that even though you have never admitted, I know that you should be from the Era of Daoless. The Silent Bone Jade is no exception. I don't know how you entered the Silent Bone Jade, but one thing is certain. You probably didn't expect the Silent Bone Jade to fuse with me. Similarly, you also didn't expect that I am a person of original sin, and a person of original sin who has fused with the blood of original sin."
"I'm afraid what will make you feel even more helpless is that I have fused with a rare drop of original sin blood that contains life. What's even more terrifying is that my existence was born from the blood of original sin."
"Jun Xuanji told me that someone wants me to become the Lord Daoless of your Era of Daoless, or perhaps the second Supreme Lord Daoless. This person might be the so-called karma, or the so-called fate, or the so-called original sin. In other words, no matter who it is, he might have already begun to plot, and I should be a chess piece in his hands."
"That Lord Daoless buried heaven and earth. I think you don't want me to become the second him, so you have been very worried. From the beginning, you have been persuading me not to seek karma, but you dare not persuade too much, nor do you dare to persuade too much. You are afraid that it will backfire. Perhaps it is really fate. Even if I don't want to, I have to admit that I have inexplicably stepped on this path."
Gu Qingfeng looked at the Silent Bone Jade and said, "I don't know if you can leave this Silent Bone Jade, but I think that even if you can leave, you won't leave just like that, because you can't and definitely won't let me become the second Supreme Lord Daoless."
"But you are also very helpless, because you can't stop all of this at all."
After saying that, Gu Qingfeng asked, "Am I right?"
After a long time.
The old monk sighed in the end. This sigh expressed the endless helplessness and hesitation in his heart.
"I have long known that Layman Ancient is extremely intelligent. I also know that just because Layman Ancient doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that you don't know. I know, I have always known …"
For some reason, the old monk's voice became even older and more powerless than before. He said, "Layman Ancient is right. I am indeed from the Era of Daoless. Back then, I entered this Silent Bone Jade by chance, but I didn't expect it to choose you."
"When I learned that you are a person of original sin, and a person of original sin who exists because of the blood of original sin, I was indeed very shocked and even more worried. Just as you said, I have been trying to persuade you, but I didn't dare to interfere too much. Perhaps I was really afraid that it would backfire, but more importantly, I still don't know what kind of existence you are, or what kind of karma you are involved in."
"Jun Xuanji told you that someone wants you to become Supreme Lord Daoless, or the second Supreme Lord Daoless. And that person might be fate, or karma, or even Supreme Lord Daoless himself, but …"
The old monk changed the topic and said, "It's just a possibility. Even if Layman Ancient exists because of the blood of original sin and has fused with the blood of original sin that contains life, it doesn't mean that Layman Ancient will definitely become the second Supreme Lord Daoless. As for the person behind it, whether it's fate, karma, or original sin … no one knows."
"All of this is unknown, especially Layman Ancient. Karma might be able to control the fate of all living things in the world, but it can't control your fate."
Gu Qingfeng asked, "Why?"
