Blood Moon Hunters - Chapter 309
When Zhuge Liang finished, he no longer looked at Leng Yueyan and Ning Zhe. Instead, he turned his eyes to Feng Tianming and Misawa Chihiro, and looked at them carefully.
“Senior Marquis Wu, please tell me my shortcomings,” Feng Tianming said with a holding fist salute.
“Wow! Haha…”
Misawa Chihiro just ran back from afar and directly jumped on the back of her Mr. Doraemon. She put her hands around his neck, and then leaned out her head, finding that Zhuge Liang was smiling at her.
Her face immediately turned red. She loosened her hands and said, “Marquis Wu… uh no, Senior Prime Minister, I’m sorry! Your formation is so amazing. I can’t help but…”
Her eyes drifted when she spoke to secretly glance at Zhuge Liang from time to time, afraid of being blamed by him.
But how could he blame such a pure person? Instead, he was a little bit gratified. Such a person would certainly not take many detours if she stepped on the cultivation road.
And that was because her heart was pure and it was easy for her to cultivate a sincere heart. However, for most cultivators, the most difficult thing was to preserve such a pure and sincere heart, the so-called Taoist heart, which was even harder than achieving the unity of man and nature.
After all, people’s hearts were always controlled by seven emotions and six desires. The same was even true for Zhuge Liang. There was a kind of cultivation realm, which was called Being Unruffled by Emotion. It emphasized the pure heart, few desires, and the devotion to Taoism.
Cultivators could hold onto emotion, but it should only be the love to pay attention to the world. Their heart could only contain Taoism, without other distractions. To reach this realm, one had to have a pure and sincere heart.
Zhuge Liang rarely saw such innocent people in the world. After carefully examining her heart, he found that there were only three thoughts in her mind.
First, to be with Mr. Doraemon forever; second, to be with all the members of Blood Moon Hunters; third, to be able to eat her fill every day.
Misawa Chihiro had experienced so much darkness from childhood and countless times of slaughter after growing up, but she was not affected by these negative factors.
She forgot all the unpleasant memories, and only cared about everything present in front of her. She wanted nothing but to be with these family members. She wanted nothing but to eat and sleep well every day.
When she saw someone in need, she would go to help. When she saw someone who should be killed by her, she would do it as a task. Regardless of the fickleness of human nature, she just wanted to spend every day with her family.
“So rare to see such a person like you. I hope you can keep this heart forever.”
Zhuge Liang sighed, and then looked at Feng Tianming, saying seriously, “You must protect the world’s most beautiful swordswoman from Japan with the Scarlet Heaven Sword in your hand.”
“Uh…” Feng Tianming was a little puzzled.
Zhuge Liang turned his back to them and said, “I’ve learned your future. But the heavenly secret can’t be revealed. So I can only remind you that she is your destined one, but also your destined disaster.
“How to survive this disaster depends on the fate of you two. Love… It is the strongest Taoism in the world, also the most difficult Taoism to reach its peak.”
Then, he turned around and frowned. “You are now missing a complete Sword Core. When it is found, you will reach the Big Achievement Realm.”
“Wow! What you said is so profound, Senior. I can’t understand. But I also want to become as strong as he is. What should I do?” Misawa Chihiro pointed at Tianming and asked.
“Hehe… That goes the same for you, Chihiro. When your Sword Core is complete, you can be as strong as he is.” Zhuge Liang smiled lightly.
“I got it! Thank you, Senior. I’m going to find it now.” Chihiro nodded vigorously.
She then ran to sit in the middle of the flower sea in the distance, using the method that Feng Tianming taught her to perceive the Sword Core and Taoism.
Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan in his hand, stared at Misawa Chihiro, and whispered, “She might be the only foreigner who left a good impression on me in this thousand years.
“Unlike Meng Huo, she has no ambitions for Hua Xia. It can also be said that she has no ambitions for this world. It’s just that she likes Hua Xia more.
“Because she came to Hua Xia, she met her teacher. Because he taught her, she met all of you. Because of you, her heart turned more innocent and is hardly stained with dust.”
After that, he turned to Feng Tianming, who had a blank face, and sighed, “As for Kendo, I can only give you opinions on Sword Core. But how to find it is up to you.
“You must figure out whom you draw the sword for and what you want in your heart. Only in this way can you be able to cut everything with your sword.”
When he finished, he turned away, leaving Feng Tianming stunned in place.
“My Sword Core…”
Feng Tianming looked at his palm, touched his heart, and then began to meditate. He had never delved into this issue. This time, since it was mentioned by Zhuge Liang, it was worth pondering.
“Oh—!”
Lyu Bu slowly stretched himself, patted Zhao Yun’s shoulder, and said, “I’m tired after coming out for so long. Chan has been waiting for me for a long time. I’m going to come back.”
“You did exert a lot of effort this time. Have a good rest. See you.” Zhao Yun laughed.
Lyu Bu nodded slowly and then walked in the direction of Lyu Hao. But he was stopped by Zhuge Liang on the way. Lyu Bu frowned. “Are you also going to give advice to such a bully as me, Mr. Reclining Dragon?”
“General Lyu is so brave and strong. How can I advise you? I just have something to ask you. Would you mind giving me some time?” Zhuge Liang shook his head.
“No, go ahead, please. I’m now different from when I was alive. I’ve learned to listen to people who are smarter than me, especially wise counselors like you.” Lyu Bu laughed.
“General Lyu, do you know if there are other heroic souls in this world like Yunchang?” Zhuge Liang asked slowly.
Hearing that, Lyu Bu began to recall carefully and then answered, “After I died, my primordial spirit has slept in the double-bladed halberd for a long time. During this period, I only felt some weak movements. I’m not sure if there are other heroic souls.”
With disappointment, Zhuge Liang slowly withdrew his eyes and then looked at Zhao Yun.
“In these ages, I have felt the breath of Elder Brother Yunchang. But it’s very weak and I’m not sure where it is,” Zhao Yun said.
“That’s good! Even a faint breath is also a kind of hope. We can no longer see the lord. I just want to see Yunchang again.” Zhuge Liang’s eyes suddenly burst into light.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave,” Lyu Bu said again.
Zhuge Liang nodded and replied, “See you, General Lyu. Spend more time with Diao Chan these days. I can’t disclose more to you. I believe you also have the sense of propriety and foreboding.”
Lyu Bu was slightly shocked when he heard those words. But he immediately put away his uneasy heart, waved goodbye to the two, and turned away.
“Prime Minister, did you spy on the heavenly secret again and see our futures?” Zhao Yun stepped over to Zhuge Liang.
“Yes. It doesn’t have to be calculated. We have made up our minds on the day we chose to stay, haven’t we?”
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan gently and said, “I just want to see my old friend more in the last moments. And Fengxian… in fact, he is also a poor man.
“In order to change his life, he also gave up cultivation and went out to make a living. However, heroes always fall due to beauties. He met Diao Chan, and was used by her from the beginning.
“In the end, when both of them were hurt, they found that they were deeply in love, and neither of them could live without the other. But it was too late, and this love had to come to an end. Now they meet again after a thousand years, but they have to face this crisis.
“Alas…”
Zhao Yun could understand the meaning of these words, saying, “This is love. A month is worth a thousand years of waiting.”
“Actually, I felt that Lyu Bu was very good when I was alive. At least he was upright. Even if he wanted to kill someone, he wouldn’t be scheming. He would act honestly.”
“Moreover, he was also a spoony. Like him, I also spent my whole life in the army, and failed to live up to the youth of my love. If I were given another chance, I would wonder if I should make atonement.”
“But you can’t let go of the mortals, General. You can’t see Hua Xia suffering from the flames of war. You would certainly go out of the mountain with your spear again if given another chance.”
This remark was to the point. Zhao Yun smiled bitterly and replied, “Yes, if you let me choose between big love and small love, maybe I would still choose Hua Xia.
“After all, I am a cultivator and a soldier. I was born to protect the country. From beginning to end, national affairs should come first. So, I can only let her down.”
Zhuge Liang nodded and said, “I understand you, General Zhao. I’m in the same situation as you. I failed to live up to Yueying for the sake of the world.”
Zhao Yun opened his eyes wide when he heard that. He knew Zhuge Liang’s wife. They got married in Longzhong. It was said that she was very ugly. But Zhuge Liang didn’t look down on and avoid her.
Instead, he readily accepted her. No one knew what happened after their marriage. When Zhao Yun saw Zhuge Liang, Huang Yueying didn’t follow him, but stayed in Longzhong and waited for him to come back.
Both of them were people who had lost their wives. With the same experience, they naturally had the same sympathetic feeling.
“I have never heard you mention your wife before, Prime Minister. Would you mind talking about her with me to resolve the doubt in my heart?” Zhao Yun asked with a holding fist salute.
This matter was such a mystery throughout the entire Kingdom of Shu. Since he had such a good relationship with Zhuge Liang, he naturally wanted to find out the secret.
