Buddhism

Qing Mo did not find Chi Tong, and waited for several days on the top of Yunshan Mountain, and found no trace of Chi Tong after searching for several days.For thousands of years, he has been staying with Chitong at the top of Yunshan Mountain, so he doesn't know where Chitong can go, and where else he will go.

He understood that if Chitong insisted on leaving, he might not return to the top of Yunshan Mountain, but he just came back with a glimmer of hope.That dim hope was still in vain.Really couldn't wait and couldn't find Chi Tong, so Qing Mo had no choice but to go back to the Demon Realm unhappily.

It was expected that he failed to bring good news when he returned to the Demon Realm.Chitong actually wanted to avoid them, so naturally he would not be easily found by them.

When Qing Mo came back, it was Nan Ming who picked him up, and he asked Nan Ming how Kong Qing was doing.Nan Ming shook his head and said, "Slept quietly for several days without asking where Chitong went."

"How is his recovery?" Qing Mo asked with a slight frown.

"Eat on time without making noise, and your body is gradually recovering. Except for not asking about red pupils and a little depression, everything else is fine." Nan Ming replied.

Qing Mo's brows were frowned, and he was thinking: he doesn't care why Chi Tong left, and he doesn't ask about Chi Tong's return.Kong Qing seemed to know exactly why Chitong left, so he was silent, except for being depressed, he almost went about his day as usual.

"Chitong has guarded Kongqing for so long, but he left without saying a word. He also said that he would not see each other again, and each is well. Now that Kongqing looks like this, what's wrong with them?" Although Qing Mo There is speculation, but no certainty.

Nan Ming was silent for a moment and said: "We are monsters, and we practice Buddhism in Kong Qing, so there should be some insurmountable places."

Qing Mo said disapprovingly: "What is insurmountable! I am a demon, and You Fang is a human being. We are not together yet."

Nan Ming shook his head, smiled weakly and said: "Chi Tong is not as willful as you, he always has his own scruples. Kong Qing is not as devoted as Mu Youfang, he also has his persistence and perseverance." concern."

Qing Mo pursed his lips and sighed, still unable to understand: "If you like each other, then you are together. Why do you want to build an insurmountable gap for yourself. When two people look at each other, they can't do it in the end."

Nan Ming actually didn't quite understand it, he thought it might be that Chi Tong loves too deeply, but Kong Qing loves too vaguely.Otherwise, Kong Qing would not be able to fully wake up after Chitong left.

Both of them have their own scruples and persistence, so one chooses to leave and never see each other again.And the other chose to accept it silently, even if he missed it without showing the slightest trace.

Both Kong Qing and Mu Youfang were seriously ill. As humans, they are not suitable for living in the Demon Realm. When they both recovered, Qing Mo was going to take them back to Lin Zhongyuan to recuperate.

After experiencing these things, Nan Ming was full of thoughts.He didn't have a strong desire for the supreme being of the demon world, and now he doesn't have much desire to dominate the demon world.

Nan Ming told King Jiang Gu of his thoughts, and King Jiang Gu knew that Nan Ming followed him to the Demon Realm, and he was probably forced to do so.At this time, he can better understand Nan Ming's thoughts. Now that the crisis is lifted, he doesn't like power and position, and it is natural for him to want freedom.

Although King Jiang Gu understood him, it didn't mean he would condone him.Immediately, he was silent, neither rejected nor supported his idea.

A few days later, after careful consideration, King Jianggu found him by himself.He said to Nan Ming: "You are the only inheritance of your father's blood, and you are also recognized as the young master by thousands of demons in the demon world. Therefore, you must be the demon master in the demon world. This cannot change the fact."

Nanming understands Jiang Guwang's loyalty and persistence, but he really doesn't want to be trapped in the demon world and be a demon king.So he proposed to abdicate to King Jiang Gu, and let the wise and steady King Jiang Gu, who has lived in the demon world for a long time, succeed the demon king.It couldn't be more suitable than this absent-minded, young and arrogant young man.

King Jiang Gu looked at Nan Ming quietly with deep eyes.The certainty and seriousness in Nan Ming's eyes are not fake at all, he really doesn't want to be trapped in a high position and take charge of the demon world.This is not the life he wants, nor is it what he is after.So he really wants to get rid of these shackles, want to be free, and live every day casually.

After careful consideration, King Jianggu knew that he could not push Nan Ming too hard.If Nan Ming felt disgusted, he would definitely leave.He was silent for a moment before saying: "If you really don't want to be bound in the Demon Realm to be the Supreme Demon Realm, you can also leave the Demon Realm and do what you want. As a minister, I can also help you take care of the Demon Realm. But the premise Yes, you have to participate in the succession ceremony, and you can only leave the demon world after you become the real Supreme Demon Realm."

King Jiang Gu persevered for thousands of years in the lonely years before he came to Nanming.After going through one storm after another, it was only by taking the risk that he was able to save the day.All these hard work and persistence are only for Nan Ming to ascend to the position of Demon Venerable smoothly. Now that the position of Demon Venerable is within easy reach, but Nan Ming wants to hand it over to others, how can he not feel sad and bewildered.

In his heart, except Nan Yougong's bloodline Nan Ming, no one is qualified to sit on the throne of the Demon Lord, including himself.

It was beyond Nan Ming's expectation that King Jiang Gu could do this for him.Unexpectedly, King Jiang Gu has already done this for him, if he insists on refusing, it will hurt King Jiang Gu's painstaking efforts.Therefore, he retained Qing Mo and the others, and after attending his succession ceremony with him, they went back to the human world together.

Qing Mo didn't understand why Nan Ming had to go back to the human world with them when he was about to become the Supreme Lord of the Demon Realm.After getting Nan Ming's explanation, he was relieved.Because for Qing Mo, the only goal in life is to be happy.If being a demon king doesn't make Nan Ming happy, then he can understand and support Nan Ming's free and easy departure.

Qing Mo readily agreed, and Mu Youfang and Zhizi also had no objections.As for Kong Qing, since Chitong left, he seems to have grown up in an instant.Although I love to smile more than before, my smile is not as thorough as before.Although it is as gentle and jade-like as before, the feeling is always different.

His deep eyes always have a kind of sadness that seems to be absent, but he keeps silent.Kong Qing intentionally did not ask anything about Chi Tong, and Qing Mo and others stopped mentioning it in front of him.Because they all knew that Chitong's departure was irreversible.

To mention it again and again is just to increase troubles in vain.Chi Tong made his own decision, and Kong Qing accepted it silently. As outsiders, they could only accompany them silently.

. . . . . . . .

Although Nanming has the title of Lord of the Demon Realm, he disdains the power and position of the Demon Realm.Therefore, at the succession ceremony, he appointed King Jiang Gu as the Demon Lord, second only to the Demon Lord, with a high position and authority to represent anything in the Demon World.It is the real power under one person and over ten thousand people, and the only devil lord in the devil world since then.In order to give an explanation to the thousands of demons, he himself found an excuse and retired.

King Jiang Gu was originally an all-powerful figure in the demon world, if there was no Nanming, in the hearts of all the demons, King Jiang Gu would be the best candidate for the supremacy of the demon world.Whether it is strength or strategy, he can compare with the previous demon masters.And Nan Ming just took advantage of the blood inheritance of a direct relative, let alone.Therefore, Nanming appointed King Jiang Gu as the only devil lord to act as the agent of the government affairs of the devil world, which they are quite happy to hear.

After all, under the management of King Jiang Gu, Nanyue City was prosperous, thriving and prosperous.And compared to the management methods of the other demon masters, King Jiang Gu is much more tolerant.And he is very sympathetic to them, and has never exploited them at will, these low-level demons, and will not overindulge those high-level demons to oppress them.

Nanming's retreat, they not only did not accuse King Jianggu of monopolizing power, but secretly celebrated it. With the stone from Nanyue City, they believed that under the rule of King Jianggu, their demon world would definitely be able to survive. Once again, the prosperity and prosperity of the year will be reproduced, and the rising sun is just around the corner.

Such a result is really happy for everyone, Nan Ming also heaved a sigh of relief, and walked quite freely.Of course, if there is any major event in the devil world, he still needs to participate.And Jiang Guwang said that if he gets tired of playing, he is welcome to come back one day, and the rights he gave can be given with both hands immediately.

For such a loyal, persistent and unrepentant King Jiang Gu.Qing Mo and others were deeply impressed and amazed.

In this way, they stayed in the Demon Realm for more than a month. After participating in Nanming's grand and grand succession ceremony, a group of five people set off to return to the Human Realm, and returned to Lin Zhongyuan on the top of Yunshan Mountain.

There was no longer that crimson figure who was busy for them in Lin Zhongyuan, and there was no longer the familiar fragrance of food.Sitting on the stone table in the courtyard, Kong Qing stared at the wooden door of the kitchen in a daze.He didn't ask about Chitong's news because he knew that Chitong made such a decision, and he also contributed to it.

If he was desperately looking for Chitong in a hysterical way, then he would have failed Chitong's concession and fulfillment to him.After the heart-wrenching pain, great enlightenment followed.

After thinking about it, he realized that short-term pain is worse than long-term pain.He is just an ordinary human being, and he can't live more than a hundred years at most.And Chitong is a demon, he has endless years to spend.

After a person dies, drinking Mengpo soup and entering the six realms of reincarnation is a brand new beginning.Unknowingly, he began to taste the flavors of the world again.Chitong is a demon, and his life is different from his, which is so fragile and short-lived, so he can't compare it.

In Chitong's long years, he was just a short-lived passerby.Why bother to be so persistent, love each other but can't stay together for life, it will only increase sadness.

Kong Qing thought, Chitong's departure might be the best result.In this way, after his death, Chitong would not be immersed in grief, and could still cultivate his own way with peace of mind.And he died more peacefully and neatly.If this goes on, Chitong will probably be able to become a fairy in another thousand years, which is the best ending for them.

Kong Qing sat for the whole afternoon without anyone bothering him.It wasn't until night fell that Zhizi moved to call him that it was time for dinner.Kong Qing came back to his senses, smiled at Zhizi and said, "I plan to leave here and go to another place. Zhizi, is there any place you want to go?"

Zhizi sat down next to Kong Qing, rubbed his fingers, looked at Kong Qing anxiously and said, "Wherever you go, I will go with you." Kong Qing has not been in a high mood recently, he was a little afraid that Kong Qing would give up He goes.

After Chi Tong left, Kong Qing's mind suddenly changed.He began to miss Kongqing when Chitong was there, his smile was bright and bright, reaching his eyes, and he still had a childlike heart.

But now Kong Qing is taciturn, smiling without speaking, talking less and less, and his smile is not as bright as before.There is always a faint sorrow lingering between his brows, he doesn't want to come out, and others can't get in.

This kind of emptiness left Zhizi at a loss. He always had a feeling that he couldn't bear to disturb him, he shouldn't disturb him, and he didn't know how to care about him.

"Okay, let's set off tomorrow morning." Kong Qing readily agreed.Zhizi is still young, and he rescued him again.So before Zhizi was a minor, Kong Qing would not abandon him for no reason.

Kong Qing left because he knew that he couldn't stay here for long, and if he stayed for a long time, it would disturb his mind.Instead of seeing things and thinking about people, it is better to leave as soon as possible, live another life, and let time dilute all this.

The dinner was prepared by Mu Youfang and Qing Mo together, and the dinner didn't begin until everyone was present.He still sat in the same position as before, and Chi Tong was originally sitting next to Kong Qing. Although Chi Tong was not there at this time, the seat was still vacant for him.

Kong Qing looked at the empty seat next to him, his eyes slightly lowered.Then he smiled again, and announced his decision indulgently: "I will leave early tomorrow morning, Zhizi will be with me."

The movements of everyone's hands stopped, except Zhizi who knew about it first, everyone looked at Kong Qing quietly.Kong Qing smiled at them with connivance in his eyes.

Qing Mo asked: "Why are you leaving? Where are you going?"

Kong Qing put down the bowl in his hand, and said unhurriedly, "Go back to Qing'an Temple."

Qing Mo froze and looked at Kong Qing deeply.He is the only one who knows that Qing'an Temple is where Kong Qing came from before he was brought back to the top of Yunshan Mountain by Chi Tong. "After so many years, are you sure you can go back?"

Kong Qing smiled lightly: "We went back to see it last time, and there are still monks inside. So it's okay to go back."

Qing Mo lowered his eyes: "That's it." Chi Tong left, and Kong Qing was leaving too, this Yunzhongyuan was already going to be empty.Qing Mo was unhappy and depressed.

Mu Youfang saw Qing Mo's sadness, and he calmly held Qing Mo's palm on his lap as a gesture of comfort.Chao Kongqing asked, "Is it far?"

"It's quite far." Kong Qing replied.

Nan Ming said: "It's okay to be idle, I'll take you back."

Kong Qing shook his head: "You don't need to bother, we can go back by ourselves if we are familiar with the road."

Nan Ming insisted: "Then I have to find the way. What if I want to visit you someday but can't find the way?"

"That's right, let's go see you off. Also know the way." Mu Youfang echoed.

Although Qing Mo had heard Chitong and Kong Qing talk about going to Qing'an Temple, he had never been there, so he also agreed to send Kong Qing off together.

Seeing their worried faces, Kong Qing smiled.Under their insistence, Kongqing had no choice but to agree.

After the matter was settled, they began to eat in silence, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit heavy.They all felt that Kong Qing was more kind and kind-eyed than before, smiling peacefully.But it is the kind of plain peace that is so deep that they can't touch it.

He seemed to have sealed up his true nature, and only showed his most kind, kind, and benevolent side.It's completely neither sad nor happy, kind-hearted, kind, generous, and the years are peaceful.

Kong Qing was so calm and indifferent, even if they tried to persuade and comfort them, they couldn't do anything.Everyone has no choice but to accompany silently. If they do it deliberately, it will be self-defeating.Therefore, they all chose to let the matter fade away gradually.

Chi Tong is a demon, much stronger than Kong Qing.Although they were worried about Chi Tong, they were not as worried as Kong Qing.The red pupils have been empty for a long time but have not, so in recent years, they all tend to empty more.Kong Qing's lifespan is only more than a hundred years, they get along day and night, and their relationship is more than that of relatives, so they must cherish this limited time.

As for Chitong, he is already a half-immortal, as long as he cultivates quietly, naturally nothing will go wrong, and ordinary people can't hurt him.They think that time can heal everything, so after a hundred years, he may be relieved, and then they will be able to meet him again.

In the middle of the night, Kongqing was packing up his things in his room. He didn't have many things. The books were bought for him by Chitong, and the clothes were also bought by Chitong.He has always been a frugal person, so there are only these books and two clothes.After tidying up these things, I picked out a few books I often read and brought them with me, which just filled a bag.

After packing up his things, he lay back on the bed to rest.Tossing and turning, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.He simply took off the rosary, sat cross-legged on the bed and silently recited Buddhist scriptures, trying to calm himself down.

He has distracting thoughts and can't calm down.With his eyes closed, he counted the rosary beads unconsciously. As he counted, he found that one of his rosary beads seemed to be missing.Kong Qing was shocked, why did he lose one of his rosary beads?He opened his eyes suddenly and counted again seriously, and it was true that one was missing.

He carefully inspected each of the beads in his entire string. There were no scratches, cracks, or redundant gaps. It was obvious that they were removed by someone with a heart.

Kong Qing let out a faint sigh, knowing without thinking, Chi Tong is the only person who cares about this.He looked at the string of rosary beads missing one, and his heavy heart became even more depressed.This rosary was made for him by Chitong himself, it was his first birthday present on the top of Yunshan Mountain, and it has been with him for many years.Chitong took one of them out, the meaning is self-evident.

After a while of melancholy, Kong Qing couldn't stay in his room any longer, so he went for a walk in the courtyard under the moonlight.After walking around for several times, he came to Chitong's door unknowingly. He saw the darkness inside Chitong's closed door.With a sigh, there was a long silence before pushing the door open and entering.

He came to the lamp oil with ease, blew on the torch, and lit the lamp.The lights came on, and the dark room gradually brightened up.

Kong Qing looked around the room that belonged to Chitong, the room was filled with familiar furnishings and layout.It's just that the familiar figure is no longer there.He lowered his eyes and felt even more lost, lonely and sad.

He suddenly felt a sense of frustration and disappointment that his life was like a dream, and his dream turned into nothingness.Depressed, very desolate.
