Silence sometimes means multiple things. It can mean acquiescence or opposition. But these two completely opposite attitudes can be easily distinguished. The best way to distinguish them is to look at a person's watch.

If you can't tell from the other person's face, you can try to analyze it from his normal words and deeds.

The world can change overnight, let alone human beings? Yes, people will change, and they will change completely. But no matter how they change, some people can never change their original nature. Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue are close to Tang Xiaotian respectively

After ten years and several years of contact, the two found that Tang Xiaotian had not changed much. In other words, Tang Xiaotian had changed, but the most sincere essence that they were familiar with had not changed. Tang Xiaotian looked the same in front of others, but he still looked the same in front of them.

That guy who is carefree and playful.

This time when talking about the situation in Baiyun Village, Tang Xiaotian was surprisingly hesitant and tempted. Whether it was hesitation or temptation, these should not be what Tang Xiaotian should have. Although Tang Xiaotian didn't show anything on his face, the two had already combined.

There are inferences in his words and deeds.

The changes in Feng Shui in Baiyun Village are not developing in a good direction!

The two looked at each other and didn't ask Tang Xiaotian any more questions. Because Baiyun Village can be seen not far away, it doesn't make much sense to ask now. The so-called "near town" means that it is getting closer and closer to Baiyun Village.

, Xu Chenglin and Chen Luoxue couldn't help but feel nervous. In their minds, the old scene of Baiyun Village could not help but reappear.

A small mountain village on the edge of Qin State. The village is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces water on one side. White clouds often float in the mountains, so the small mountain village is named Baiyun Village. Baiyun Village faces Yueping in the west and the golden beach of Weishui River in the east. The mountains and waters are as beautiful as a fairyland. The villagers take pictures from the mountains.

Building houses with bamboos, drinking from the Weishui River in the east, burning withered trees in the forest, and eating food grown in the fields, it is a natural, peaceful and indescribable beauty...

After turning around the foot of the mountain, the two thought they would see floating white clouds, surrounded by golden water, green forests, and return to the neat Baiyun Village. But what they actually saw was somewhat beyond their expectations. Baiyun Village became more beautiful than before.

It is more neat, but the neat houses have less naturalness and more vulgar craftsmanship. The golden beach no longer exists, replaced by a somewhat noisy forest farm. Wangyue Ping has long been destroyed, and on it

The beautiful forest trees have been damaged, and one tree has fallen here and there. Seeing that people are still dragging the trees in the west to the forest farm in the east for processing, and then dragging them back to the village for use, the two of them also understand why Wangyue Ping

It will be destroyed like this. As for the white clouds that often float in the mountains that made Baiyun Village famous, they have long since disappeared.

"Isn't it just that the feng shui has changed? Why has it become like this now?"

Xu Chenglin didn't know how to describe the changes in Baiyun Village. After thinking for a while, he could only summarize it this way.

Tang Xiaotian did not answer Xu Chenglin immediately. He looked at Baiyun Village and suddenly felt a little strange. The last time he came here, he saw that Baiyun Village only had more people, more roads, and fewer trees on the mountains. The village gave people a sense of natural harmony.

A few points missing

, but other than that, there were not many changes. But he did not expect that Baiyun Village would undergo such a big change just a short time later.

"What was Baiyun Village like when I came here last time?"

After looking at Tang Xiaotian who was a little stunned, Chen Luoxue asked.

"Last time?"

Tang Xiaotian raised his eyes and looked into the sky, where the white clouds of Baiyun Village used to float.

After a long silence, Tang Xiaotian sighed. He shook his head and spoke slowly.

"He was not like this when I came last time. Although there were fewer white clouds over Baiyun Village at that time, at least they were still there. There were more people in the village, more roads, more houses, and more trees on the mountains.

It’s gone, and the sense of intimacy is gone. But at least the village back then can still be seen as it was back then. But now, this place doesn’t have even the slightest trace of what it was like back then.”

"Yeah, it's not even the same as before!"

Listening to Tang Xiaotian's words, Chen Luoxue also sighed with emotion.

"Let's go and have a look. No matter what, it's still Baiyun Village. The appearance has changed. I wonder what happened to the people back then..."

At the end, Xu Chenglin gradually fell silent. Tang Xiaotian's essence has not changed in ten years, because he is a practitioner. And can the people in the village really withstand the test of time?

Shaking his head slightly, Xu Chenglin continued to walk forward. Tang Xiaotian and Chen Luoxue behind him looked at each other and followed.

Three strange-looking people came to the village before, but they didn't attract anyone's attention. Thinking about it, the village must be like a place where outsiders often come. People in the village don't look at outsiders at all.

Pay attention, this is not unreasonable.

"Tell me the truth, how many acquaintances do you have in the village?"

At this time, Xu Chenglin had already come to some realizations. Tang Xiaotian said a while ago that Baiyun Village had not changed much, but there were many lies in it.

"I don't know! Everyone has changed so much that I can't tell them apart. I could only recognize the master because he heard someone calling him."

Tang Xiaotian did not hide it anymore and directly told the two of them the truth.

"Sure enough! I said something was wrong with you at that time. We were a little excited at the time, but we didn't find anything wrong. Now that I think about it, you still had traces of your lies at that time. How could such a careless guy be so careful?

Tell us about your memories. It was your style to just skip the topic at that time."

While Chen Luoxue was talking, the three of them walked into the village.

Looking around, Chen Luoxue didn't find any building that she was familiar with. She frowned slightly, and then looked at the people near the entrance of the village. However, with this glance, Chen Luoxue didn't see even a single familiar person.

There was no trace of the familiar shadow in the past.

"Sure enough, he has changed. He doesn't even have any acquaintances."

Shaking her head, Chen Luoxue walked towards a fat woman.

"May I ask this sister-in-law, is this Baiyun Village?"

Although she knew that this was the former Baiyun Village, Chen Luoxue still asked symbolically.

.

"Hey! Where did this little lady come from? She looks so handsome! Would you like me to tell you about my family?"

The obese woman's eyes lit up when she saw Chen Luoxue, as if she had seen a fishy cat. She did not answer Chen Luoxue's question, but was interested in matchmaking.

Chen Luoxue frowned, with a bit of displeasure on her face. She pursed her lips and asked again.

"I dare to ask this sister-in-law, does she know if the husband in the village still lives far away?"

"Hey! Little lady, you don't care about your own fate, but you care about what this old man does! What else do you want to do to a guy who can't live for more than a few months!"

The fat woman still didn't really answer Chen Luoxue, but Chen Luoxue heard something.

"What do you mean? You can't live for more than a few months? Tell me clearly what's going on!"

Chen Luoxue's tone was a little urgent, and she looked at the fat woman with a serious face.

"Oh, you are so anxious. I am curious, who is he to you? Could it be..."

The obese woman rolled her eyes and a malicious smile appeared on her face.

"Sister-in-law! You've gone too far!"

Chen Luoxue's face was dark, and her tone was even more angry.

"Hey! Did I tell you right? Can't you keep it on your face?"

Seeing the angry look on Chen Luoxue's face, the woman couldn't help but put on a smug smile.

"Sister-in-law, your words are too harsh!"

Tang Xiaotian couldn't stand it anymore and finally scolded him angrily.

"Who are you? My concubine?"

Glancing at Tang Xiaotian, the fat woman was full of ridicule.

"you……"

Tang Xiaotian gritted his teeth so hard that it showed how hard it was to endure the anger in his heart.

Chen Luoxue didn't speak because she was so angry that she couldn't speak. She didn't know when she clenched her hands tightly, and a faint spiritual light appeared in the center of her fists.

"You two come back, what's the point of competing with an ordinary person?"

Shaking his head, Xu Chenglin looked at the two of them helplessly.

"Ordinary people? What a loud tone? Who do you think you are? Are you the immortals in the village? Haha, hahaha..."

Listening to Xu Chenglin's words, the fat woman was stunned. But then, she pointed at Xu Chenglin mockingly and laughed wildly.

Looking at the fat woman who was still laughing wildly, Xu Chenglin felt angry, but he still endured it. When the woman said that there were immortals in the village, Xu Chenglin couldn't help but become curious.

"Immortal? Are there immortals in the village? Don't we look like immortals?"

"Of course there are immortals in the village! To tell you the truth, that old immortal master only offended the immortals and became more human than ghost. As for you saying that you are like immortals, please stop making trouble! Look at you guys

, one has an ordinary appearance, the other is careless, and the other is beautiful but ordinary, where does the immortal look come from!"

As the fat woman spoke, she pointed at the three of them and said that they were useless.

"Let's go! Ignore this person, let's go to the village and have a look."

Ignoring the woman again, Xu Chenglin walked deeper into the village.

When Tang Xiaotian and Chen Luoxue saw this, they quickly followed.

"Eh? Why did I get it right! Didn't you run away..."

When the woman saw Xu Chenglin leaving, she started talking to herself again. However, no matter how harsh her words were, Xu Chenglin ignored her.

The ordinary-looking Xu Chenglin, the carefree Tang Xiaotian, and the handsome but unremarkable Chen Luoxue. In terms of Shan Cong's appearance, these three people are indeed not very outstanding. Some practitioners care about appearance, and some don't, as long as they can look past it.

That's good. Obviously, these three people are the latter. Furthermore, practitioners have different temperaments, and no one can tell them apart if they don't understand them carefully.

What looks gorgeous on the outside may not necessarily look good on the inside. Don’t you know that there is a saying in the world that there is a silver-like pewter spear tip? How can ordinary people recognize true monks by just looking at their appearance?

Walking all the way to the depths of the village, the three finally saw a familiar place. The village had changed, but the school was still there. Different from what they remembered, this school was much older than before.
