After sending Chen Yi and the two back to the mountain, Chen Chao did not stay in the Shanshui Sect for a long time, but quickly went down the mountain and walked from New Liuzhou towards Shendu.
A pair of master and apprentice were walking among the high mountains.
He Liang was worried all the way, and Chen Chao didn't even ask, just patiently accompanying his disciple as he walked slowly.
After walking a few steps, he saw a wild fruit tree on one side. Chen Chao picked two of them, wiped them with his sleeves, and took a bite. They were sour and sweet, not bad.
Throwing one to He Liang, the latter almost didn't react, but luckily he caught it later. After thanking his master, he took a bite and stared at the wild fruit tree, thinking about something.
Chen Chao finished his wild fruit in a few seconds, threw it aside, and sat down bored. He used his spiritual consciousness to explore the surroundings. A few years ago, there would have been monsters hoarding in the surrounding mountains and forests. He could probably kill a few monsters without any problems.
After a lot of exploration this time, only a low-level monster was found in a very far place. Chen Chao walked towards it and did not take the initiative to remind He Liang anything.
When he got close to the monster, Chen Chao suddenly released a hint of coercion. The monster was frightened and suddenly appeared from its hiding place and rushed towards He Liang to kill him.
Chen Chao took a look and saw that it was a monster with blue fur and an appearance similar to that of an ordinary wild wolf. It had not yet transformed, but had a pair of eyes that revealed something strange.
He Liang was suddenly startled. He was wandering in a daze, but after suddenly coming back to his senses, he subconsciously punched the monster and killed the monster on the spot.
Chen Chao clicked his tongue and smiled.
Although He Liang knew that this was his master's intention, he did not complain, but looked at the dead wolf demon curiously.
He had heard about monsters so many times, and this was the first time he had fought against them, and the first time he had killed them. He Liang couldn't help but look at them a few more times.
Chen Chao pointed at the corpse of the wolf demon and said, "There will be demon beads inside this demon, but the demon beads of this wolf demon are very common, so they shouldn't be sold for much."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Liang took out the dagger from his arms and went over there to break open the wolf demon's body and take out the demon bead.
He Liang, who came from a small place, knows very well that every step is hard-earned.
Chen Chao narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "Now the medicinal materials you use to keep your body strong are all spent by the teacher, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation are all paid for by the teacher. Xiaohe, you don't have to kill monsters and exchange monster beads for money.
.So how about I make a little agreement with you?"
He Liang raised his head and looked at Chen Chao seriously, "Master, please tell me."
"In the future, before you break through each realm, you must kill fifty monsters in the same realm and use the monster beads as evidence. However, after you reach the realm of forgetfulness, you no longer need to follow this rule."
He Liang scratched his head
, although he had a lot of doubts, he quickly nodded in agreement.
Chen Chao smiled happily and did not tell He Liang the reason. The boy did not ask himself. In fact, it was very good. What Chen Chao was worried about was that He Liang was not as talented as Yu Qingfeng and would lose his mind after seeing Yu Qingfeng walk faster.
The mind then blindly wants to catch up with Qingfeng's realm. This will lead to a result, that is, his foundation will become less and less solid, and his realm will become lighter and lighter.
For martial arts, it was definitely a big mistake at that time.
In fact, according to Chen Chao, Yu Qingfeng will definitely be much higher than He Liang in the future for a long time. However, martial arts is not a one-time success. When He Liang reaches a certain level one day, he will reach a certain level.
If Li catches up with Qingfeng, then the two people's realms will become very close at first, and then He Liang will definitely surpass Qingfeng.
Among his three disciples, in the long run, He Liang is the one most likely to inherit his martial arts style. Chen Chao is not worried about the gains and losses in the past few decades.
After Chen Chao opened his mouth, He Liang seemed to finally muster up the courage to ask, "Master, did the sword immortal say something to you at the end?"
Chen Chao looked at He Liang, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "What do you think it is?"
He Liang thought for a while and decided to ask directly, "It should be the sword immortal begging for mercy, right?"
Chen Chao nodded.
Then He Liang was speechless.
Chen Chao had no choice but to finish the question for him, "You want to say that since the sword immortal begged for mercy, he might be prepared to pay a price, but why would the master not let him go and insist on killing him?"
He Liang nodded, that's right.
Chen Chao said calmly, "Master, I can tell you that the Sword Immortal named Lu Chu has actually not done anything bad in these years. He is just practicing hard and wants to become a great sword Immortal one day."
"There seems to be no damn reason, but Master just can't let him go."
Chen Chao looked at He Liang and said, "Do you know why?"
He Liang shook his head, it was because he didn't know that he wanted to ask.
Chen Chao pointed out this matter, "Master is not afraid that he will become a great swordsman and seek revenge from Master, because even if that day comes, Master will not waste any effort to kill him. The problem is that after today, Master will let him go.
Due to his temper and forbearance, plus being a swordsman, he will definitely be picked up by other sects and given training resources, and then they will secretly plot against the court. This process
It would be too troublesome, so this is why we must kill him."
"Another point is that this person has provoked Daliang before, including the entire Ziye Cave. Over the years, Master has killed many people and destroyed many sects. Why he shows little mercy is because he wants to understand
Tell the whole world, stop trying to test Daliang’s bottom line, if you offend Daliang you will have to pay the price.”
Chen Chao looked at He Liang and said, "They destroyed Liuli Temple because they did not regard the people of Daliang as human beings. They destroyed Sanxi Mansion because they calculated the national destiny of Daliang. They climbed Taixuan Mountain because they were arrogant that no one had ever entered the palace.
Ghost. That’s why these people have to die so that those who come after you can weigh things before they take action.”
"But there must be some people here who died in vain. Master admits this. But as a guardian, Master has to consider the people of Daliang. Between the people of Daliang and the monks outside, Master can only consider the people of Daliang first.
."
Chen Chao said calmly, "A lot of times, many decisions are made from different standpoints. In fact, it's hard to say right or wrong. It just depends on what kind of heart the person doing it has. It's like if there is a strong person outside the country at this moment."
He is so strong that the master has no power to resist. He may kill the master with one punch. The master may feel unwilling to do so, but he will never ask him why. Because he has countless reasons to kill the master, and those reasons, in
There must be nothing wrong with him from his standpoint."
He Liang listened to so many things at once, and his mind felt a little dizzy. Chen Chao noticed He Liang's confusion, stretched out his hand to rub his head, and said warmly, "A master is not only teaching his disciples how to practice boxing, but how
Kill people. You also need to teach your disciples how to behave. Of course, not everything the master says is right. Just like what the master said when he first accepted you as a disciple, if one day you feel that the master is wrong, just feel free to do so.
Put it forward, and if we really can't reach an agreement in the end, just go separate ways."
He Liang shook his head and said softly, "Master, there is no such thing as that day."
Chen Chao didn't know why, but suddenly thought of Yu Qingfeng, and wanted to say something uncertain, but finally gave up.
After that, the master and apprentice left the mountain forest and walked slowly along the official road in the direction of Shendu. They soon passed by a county where the rain had stopped.
He Liang stood in front of the city gate, looked at the three words "Yuting County", blinked his eyes, and thought the name sounded very nice.
Chen Chao waited patiently for He Liang to finish reading before leading him into the county town.
When he entered the city, it was already dusk. A pair of masters and apprentices, one big and one small, walked slowly along the long street with not many people. He Liang kept looking at the houses on both sides and found that most of the houses had "
A wooden sign hangs with the name and date on it.
It’s just that some are written in red pen, and some are
Ink pen, and there is a date on the wooden sign written with ink pen.
Different lengths.
He Liang looked a little gloomy.
A long time ago, there was a wooden sign written in red pen in front of my house, but one day it was replaced with ink pen. At first, it was hung in front of the door. Later, because the neighbors would laugh at my mother about it,
One day he quietly took off the wooden sign and burned it.
Later, when his mother found out, she became furious and made him kneel all night.
Only later did he learn that the wooden sign written on it was the time when his father joined the army and died in battle, and the local government would use the wooden sign to determine the monthly pension. The wooden sign was destroyed, and his mother went to the county government to explain the situation.
The county magistrate therefore suppressed the pension from the court.
In fact, it went into the pocket of the county magistrate.
However, my mother was not very disappointed, and still relied on herself to raise He Liang with difficulty.
He Liang never told his master about this incident.
In fact, even now, when He Liang thinks about this incident occasionally, He Liang feels very sorry for his mother.
Looking at those ink pens, Chen Chao laughed at himself, "I joined the army at the age of fifteen and returned home at the age of eighty. Now it seems that I am lucky to have returned."
I don’t know how many people have walked to the northern city in this life and never returned.
He Liang suddenly said, "Master, if the demon clan is gone, then we won't have any more deaths?"
Chen Chao looked at He Liang, nodded and said, "That's the truth, but before that, many people will definitely die."
He Liang nodded and said seriously, "Master, I know why you did what you did."
Chen Chao smiled happily and said nothing.
There are some truths that you don’t need to say, you just have to see and feel them yourself, and you will naturally know them. Saying it yourself, even if you say ten thousand words, may not have such an effect.
After walking for a while, He Liang suddenly raised his head, looked at his master, and asked seriously, "Master must be very tired these years, right?"
Chen Chao was startled for a moment, then looked at He Liang with complicated eyes and said nothing.
He Liang nodded to himself and said, "Yes, Master has to think about so many things and do so many things. All the things in the world are on Master's shoulders. So many people's hopes are on Master. Of course Master will be very tired."
."
After saying this, He Liang looked at his master again and said seriously, "Master, thank you for your hard work."
Chen Chao smiled, but still didn't say anything. He just reached out and rubbed the little guy's head.
