Chapter 152 Snap, Snap, Snap
Lin Wanyi was slightly startled and wondered why this sounded so strange?
After hesitating for a moment, she stopped on the stone steps covered with light snow, raised her head slightly, and looked at the familiar figure from more than ten feet away, with a bit of doubt in her eyes.
Because she really didn't understand this sentence, but she felt that this sentence was deeply related to herself, and she really wanted to ask why.
Gu Zhuo understood the look in her eyes and thought to himself, this is the only thing he really can't tell you.
——Your mother has an inseparable relationship with the former leader of the Tianming Sect.
Thinking of this, he turned and walked towards Lin Wanyi, but unfortunately the smile on his face was still bitter.
Lin Wanyi just stood there, waiting quietly.
Not long after, the two met again.
"What did you mean by that?"
"Can I lie to you?"
"What do you think?"
"Then let's talk about it another day."
Lin Wanyi frowned and looked at him strangely, but finally did not ask.
Gu Zhuo turned and asked, "Let's go together?"
"it is good……"
Lin Wanyi looked at him, still unable to stop worrying, and said seriously: "If there is anything I can help with, you must tell me."
Gu Zhuo said: "Okay."
When he said this, he still had a smile on his face, and he thought it would be better not to go to that step.
This matter was more complicated than he had expected.
The lady who was about to become the queen could not be the ghost. The reason was very simple. Lu Mingcheng used the word "old friend" in that conversation.
Judging from the simplest age, the Queen does not fit these two words at all and is not qualified to be Lu Mingcheng's old friend, which means that the ghost is someone else.
The situation now is the worst, even worse than what Gu Zhuo and Pei Jinge had originally deduced.
It now seems that the Summer Festival was most likely not initiated by one person, but was the result of a joint effort between the Queen Mother and the ghost.
Otherwise, why would Pei Jinge personally return to the Divine Capital to conduct a secret investigation only to find nothing?
"You seem to have something very heavy on your mind."
Lin Wanyi's voice was very soft, like the evening breeze blowing against the lotus flowers, so gentle that it made people feel pity.
Gu Zhuo sighed and said, "Yeah, it's really annoying."
Lin Wanyi pursed her lips, looked at the still long mountain road, and suddenly said: "In fact, giving up is also a kind of courage. If there are some things that are inconvenient for you to say, you might as well ask someone to convey them for you... like me."
Gu Zhuo thought about it and said, "Yes."
Lin Wanyi turned her head and looked at his profile. When she was about to continue speaking, she suddenly saw a smile that was no longer haggard and bitter.
"but……"
Gu Zhuo chuckled and said, "At least we don't have to give up today."
Lin Wanyi understood what he meant, and at that moment her heart was at ease. She didn't blame him for asking what he meant by his previous words, and said with a smile: "Then let's separate now."
Gu Zhuo was a little puzzled and asked, "Why?"
Lin Wanyi smiled and said cheerfully, "Because I'm standing too close, it's hard for me to see you clearly~"
It’s better to let you enjoy the beautiful moments like this all by yourself.
She didn't say this aloud, but her meaning was clear.
She quickly walked forward a few steps, then slowly turned around and looked back at Gu Zhuo.
The skirt dances gracefully with the wind and snow.
Lin Wanyi said goodbye.
"see you later."
Gu Zhuo looked at the girl's receding back and thought, how nice it would be if you could always be like this?
……
……
At some point, the snow between heaven and earth became heavier and heavier.
If the people on the top of the mountain were not practitioners, they would have probably caught a cold by now, after all, no one was wearing thick clothes.
Being healthy and free from disasters does not mean that you can be happy. Just like no matter how beautiful the scenery is, you need the corresponding mood to discover its beauty.
At some point, there was a commotion among the crowd.
That was because people discovered Lin Wanyi's arrival.
But soon, the commotion began to die down because something happened.
On the mountain path, someone was walking towards this side.
People's eyes gathered on him from top to bottom like a wave, with extremely intense scrutiny and obvious dissatisfaction.
The sound then rang out, incessantly.
"Finally I've come here."
"I heard that he was also the last one to come to the summer festival this year?"
"It's fine during the summer festival, the Sky Patrol gave him first place, but why did they make us wait so long for him today?"
"Haha, you ask even though you already know the answer."
"It's hard to say anything else, but this guy's level of pretentiousness is really extraordinary. No wonder he could do such a thing during the summer festival."
There were more and more discussions in front of the hall, but because of the restraint, it was not noisy.
Until one moment, someone discovered something in surprise.
——Gu Zhuo seems to still be stuck in the realm of Dong Zhen, unable to break through.
Soon, more and more people noticed this fact, and the area in front of the hall suddenly became noisy.
Xie Yinglian never looked back because he was sad.
She sighed and thought, you really put a lot of thought into not marrying me.
Wang Momo didn't care.
Yes, when he watched Gu Zhuo win the championship this summer, he admitted that he was not as good as Yu Sheng in the battle between the latter and Yu Sheng.
But that was back then, not this year.
Regardless of whether Gu Zhuo has broken through or not, he poses no threat to him.
……
……
For some reason, the voices in front of the hall suddenly became silent at a certain moment. It had nothing to do with the teachers of various sects standing in the hall, but because many people suddenly thought of a question.
Since Gu Zhuo hasn't made a breakthrough, why does he come in such a high-profile manner? Has it really become a habit?
Or does he not care about being embarrassed, and is not afraid of being ridiculed, thinking that no one dares to laugh at him in front of him?
Or is this his way of telling everyone that no matter what I do, you still can't do anything to me?
Almost no one in front of the palace thought so, because Gu Zhuo was now very famous, and he had never been so arrogant and domineering in the past.
So why on earth did he do this?
Could it be that he was going to let lotus bloom with every step and break through on the spot?
……
……
In countless sights.
Gu Zhuo came to the front of the hall, walked up to the monk Kuzhou, and said, "Greetings, Master."
The monk Kuzhou smiled at him and said, "You have come just in time. The Dharma Assembly is about to begin."
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the room almost burst into an uproar, thinking that this was too shameless.
So much time has passed, can this be called just right?
Are all monks so thick-skinned?
If I hadn't been in Cihang Temple, I think someone would have spoken up by now.
Gu Zhuo smiled and said self-deprecatingly: "It seems that I am being too sentimental."
The bitter boat monk asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Gu Zhuo said honestly: "I heard that the Dharma Assembly has not started yet because everyone is waiting for me."
As soon as these words were spoken, the place suddenly fell silent.
People looked at him with surprise and horror in their eyes, wondering if this was something they could say openly.
Even the teachers and leaders of various sects standing in the hall could not help but frown at this time, thinking that this sentence did not make sense.
The bitter boat monk remained expressionless, shook his head and said, "Of course not."
"That's good."
Gu Zhuo seemed to be relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
Everyone thought, if you really believe it, then you are shameless or an idiot?
The next moment, a sentence rang out that no one expected.
"I'm leaving."
Gu Zhuo smiled and nodded to the Kuzhou monk, then turned around without hesitation and walked forward along the way he came.
There was an uproar.
No one could understand what Gu Zhuo was doing, just as few people could continue to suppress their emotions and remain silent at this moment.
Because what Gu Zhuo is doing now is...disrespecting Cihang Temple.
To put it more directly, many people felt that they heard a "pop" that was particularly loud.
Cihang Temple delayed the ceremony until now for you, and you forced them to admit in front of everyone that it had nothing to do with you, and now you turn around and leave?
Even the second-best person in the world and the best Zen master is sitting here waiting for you today, and you dare not even give him face?
Wang Mo was really silent.
Xie Yinglian opened his eyes wide and thought to himself, so you are the one who is really mentally ill.
The Immaculate Monk lowered his head, slapped his forehead hard, and thought to himself, I knew something was going to happen.
Bai Nanming's idea is the simplest.
——So this is why you asked me to come here from afar.
……
……
"Are you leaving now?"
A voice with a hint of regret sounded in the wind and snow.
When people heard this, their attention once again focused on Gu Zhuo.
Unlike before, this time no one was aloof, no matter if it was Xie Yinglian or Wang Mo who once won the first place in the summer festival, or the teachers of various sects who stood aloof from the crowd in the hall.
Everyone was waiting for Gu Zhuo's answer.
The next moment, someone woke up in shock and looked towards the source of the sound.
It was a huge Buddha statue, and in front of it sat a young monk named Daoxiu.
This is what he said.
Gu Zhuo didn't look back and said, "Yes."
Dao Xiu did not stand up, and there was a hint of smile in his voice. He was very gentle and persuasive.
"Wouldn't you like to listen for a moment?"
Everyone knows that this sentence means that he will personally preach in the near future and guide the practitioners here.
Many people are puzzled at this point, thinking that Cihang Temple has put up such a posture just for your sake, and you haven't made a breakthrough yet, and Master Daoxiu will surely clear the clouds for you later, so why do you turn around and leave now?
Doing this will not only offend Zen Buddhism, but will also make your breakthrough even more distant. It is completely harmful to both others and yourself. What's the point?
Gu Zhuo shook his head and said, "That's not necessary."
It's the truth, the real truth.
Dao Xiu smiled and said no more.
The monks of Cihang Temple had already focused their attention on Gu Zhuo, and at this moment he was about to leave the platform in front of the temple and return to the mountain path.
The emotions in those eyes were finally no longer calm and indifferent, but anger.
Everything that happened before can be regarded as unintentional remarks of the younger generation, but this sentence cannot be regarded as such because it concerns Master Daoxiu.
In an instant, the sky was filled with snow and the weather became suddenly colder and more intense.
Someone suddenly asked: "Why is it not necessary?"
Gu Zhuo did not stop and spoke casually, which was rare.
“I guess many people are wondering, why am I so arrogantly and nonchalantly saying that it’s not necessary? Is it because I can break through at any time, but I’m just deliberately not taking that step forward, waiting for someone to ask such a question, and then naturally break through in front of everyone.”
When he said this, he was smiling just like Daoxiu.
The man asked, "Is that so?"
Gu Zhuo raised his hand and began to applaud, praising: "You really guessed it right."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped onto the mountain path, and his aura changed.
The wind and snow in the sky suddenly stopped.
I fainted yesterday. I'm sorry.
