Chapter Fifty-Four: Killing the Evil Is a Good Thought
[Famous sayings of the old abbot of Shaolin...]
Li Wei shouted bad and sacrificed his long sword. Chen Yunsheng poured almost 30% of his spiritual energy into Qilin Slash. Red light and fire clouds instantly dyed half of the sky. A fiery Qilin spread its teeth and claws and swallowed Li Wei.
Wei. Accompanied by a scream, the yellow life-long sword shattered into pieces.
After letting out a breath of evil breath, Chen Yunsheng put away the Qilin Slash, flew into the air, and said to Han Feng and Xu Bailu who were already stunned, "Let's go, you can go back."
Han Feng dragged the absent-minded Xu Bailu and jumped onto the Chuanyun boat, and the three of them disappeared into the night at lightning speed.
…[
In the night, Chen Yunsheng stood at the head of Chuanyun Boat, with Han Feng behind him. Ever since Xu Bailu heard the bad news about her mother, she had been in a state of disbelief. She stayed alone in the cabin to practice hard and learn the way of swordsmanship.
After a long time, Han Feng asked: "Why didn't Master tell Junior Brother Xu the true cause of his mother's death? Is there really an inside story?"
With a long sigh, Chen Yunsheng said: "Sometimes knowing is more painful than not knowing. If his mother was humiliated before she died, do you think I should tell the truth? Sometimes it is easier to destroy a person than to kill him. I would rather
I don’t want him to live in pain even if I see him die.”
Han Feng nodded and stopped asking questions. The quiet moonlight shone on the master and apprentice.
After a long time, Chen Yunsheng said: "Feng'er, my teacher feels that your progress in cultivation is slow, probably because of your qualifications. Even if you advance to the golden elixir, except for poisons and other self-defense techniques, you will always be inferior to others.
One step ahead."
Han Feng felt ashamed when his master pointed out his problems. He said angrily: "My apprentice is born with poor qualifications. I have worked hard. In addition to poison, I also have Xiao Hei, that's the one."
Poison Dragon, it has become a bit bigger recently, and it can easily deal with ordinary Jindan monks."
Hearing his disciple's stubborn excuse, Chen Yunsheng felt more comfort and emotion in his heart. He slowly said: "I also planned to pass Yuanci to you, but I didn't expect you to be so pretentious, so forget it."
Han Feng has been coveting Chen Yunsheng's Yuanci method for a long time. He begged for it many times to no avail. Unexpectedly, the master intended to pass it on to him tonight. He quickly said: "No, master, let me pass it on to you. The disciple's method is very poor. Even Xiaohu
Even Xiaohu can't compare to Xiaoyun, let alone Xiaoyun. Among the four disciples of yours, I am the worst, so wouldn't it embarrass you if I go out?"
Chen Yunsheng smiled knowingly, took out a manuscript of Yuanci from Naxu Jie, threw it to Han Feng, and said: "Take it and study it, you can read these things yourself, don't pass them around to your brothers.
As the saying goes, there are specializations in the arts, and everyone has their own major direction. Don’t spread these things to everyone just because you think you are well-intentioned, but it will harm them.”
Han Feng nodded and said: "Master taught me that if you don't tell me, I will give it to Xu Bailu the next day."
Chen Yunsheng chuckled, secretly thinking that this guy was quite honest.
"Master, your attack just now was so smooth that my disciple was dumbfounded." Han Feng said without flattery.
Chen Yunsheng smiled gently and said: "If you practice Yuanci diligently, sooner or later it will happen. The way of Yuanci is unpredictable, and Master has only just scratched the surface."
Chen Yunsheng did not mean to comfort Han Feng. He felt from the bottom of his heart that Yuanci was far more profound than Xiangli, which was Taoism. Yuanci seemed to be a more basic force that ran through everything.
"It's just that my disciple has something unclear. Why do you still want to kill Li Wei even though he has begged for mercy? According to Senior Sister Minglan, killing too many people is not good for us, let alone Huang Shabao."
"Some people do evil if they don't kill them. But no matter how things develop, I regret them."
There was a long silence next. Chen Yunsheng was thinking about the future arrangements of Jiuyao City, and Han Feng was thinking about what the master just said.
"How long have you been home since?" Chen Yunsheng asked after a long time.
Han Feng pinched his fingers and said, "It's been about twenty-seven years. Since that day when I took my sword and hit the road, I haven't been back home."[
"Twenty-seven years of glory and glory, the years of mortals cannot be compared with the years of practitioners. When you are done with this matter, go home."
"I see."
…
Back at the Chen's Pharmacy, the sky was already bright, the sun was shining on the earth, and it was another sunny day. There was a solemn atmosphere inside the Chen's Pharmacy, with moon-white cloth flowers hanging in front of the hall, under the eaves, and on the two horse-mounted stones at the door. The door of the pharmacy
Close it tightly, close the door and thank guests.
Xue Li, Yu Chixue and others were also in high spirits. They moved extremely smoothly, attracting 70% of the combat cultivators, and successfully ambushed them in the Red Willow Forest, knocking those combat cultivators to pieces, and then
They split into three groups and flew away. When Huang Shabao reacted and shouted that he had been fooled, he had already chased him thousands of miles away. Originally, the three of them were in high spirits after returning, but they didn't expect that Chen Yunsheng had missed it. Xu Bailu lost
After losing my mother, even if this plan goes smoothly, it cannot be considered a success.
Putting a bunch of white irises that he had just collected on Xu Bailu's table, Ye Sihan was about to step away. However, he heard Xu Bailu, who was sitting quietly in the corner with his head buried in his arms, say softly, "Thank you."
Senior sister."
"Are you feeling better?"
"Well, there is still some pain here." Xu Bailu pointed to her heart.
He raised his bloodshot eyes and looked at Ye Sihan, who was as cold as ice.
The woman sighed softly, stood in front of her, and said: "When I heard that my parents died, I was still young and couldn't understand what death was like. That time, my uncle also collected the corpses for my parents. In addition to sadness,
, he is burdened with a lot of self-blame. So, please don’t blame Uncle Master this time, the pressure in his heart must be greater than yours."
Two lines of clear tears fell from Xu Bailu's eyes, and she said: "How could I blame Master? Without him, Bai Lu would have been dead for a long time. Even if my mother is dead, she has nothing to do with Master. For my sake, he has lost all control over me."
The chaos actually killed the Yellow Sand Leopard. I don’t know if Ji Pingnan will let it go. Hey, it’s really one wave after another.”
Ye Sihan snorted softly and said: "You don't have to worry about my uncle's affairs. You should gather your mind and practice hard. Let those who deserve to die as soon as possible, and those who died in vain can rest in peace."
"Thank you, senior sister."
The second person who came to visit Xu Bailu was Han Feng. As a senior brother, he believed that he had the obligation to comfort this junior brother's frustration. Putting a pot of wine on the table, Han Feng patted Xu Bailu's shoulder and said
: "Senior brother, let me have a drink with you."
Before Xu Bailu could say anything, the door of the house rang, and Xue Li and Yi Xiaohu also walked into the house. Xue Li said, "If you have wine, count us two."
Xu Bailu gave a bitter smile and said, "Thank you, senior brothers, Bai Lu is so virtuous and capable of making you miss me."
"A cup of turbid wine, three close friends, hey, Bai Lu is out of sight, I will have to drink with you in the future." Xue Li said casually.
The three of them sat down, and Yi Xiaohu took out a warm white jade wine jar. The walls of the jar were semi-transparent, and the liquid inside could be seen rippling.
"This is the fruit wine that Master painstakingly brewed on Wangyou Island. Dozens of wild fruits that are beneficial to cultivation are added to it, as well as Black Crescent Moon and Xiaobai's excrement."
"Are Black Yueya and Xiaobai your two pigs?" Han Feng asked with a frown.
Yi Xiaohu nodded loyally and took the lead in pouring a full cup for Han Feng, which was about to overflow.
"Adding pig manure? Whose idea was this?" Xue Li's voice raised an octave.[
"My master was in seclusion back then, and I was responsible for all the brewing." Yi Xiaohu didn't understand why Xue Li doubted him, and then poured a full cup for Xue Li.
"Are you crazy? Pig manure can also be used to make wine?" Han Feng and Xue Li sang and sang together, like a pair of living treasures.
Yi Xiaohu shook his head, poured fruit wine for Xu Bailu, and then said slowly: "When the master drank my wine, he only said one sentence, 'It tastes better than what I brewed'. From then on, I was responsible for making fruit wine.
"
After pouring it for himself, Yi Xiaohu picked up the wine cup, looked at everyone, and said: "Respect all fellow apprentices and brothers."
Xue Li and Han Feng looked at each other, frowning, as if they were holding poison instead of wine. Xu Bailu picked up his own glass of wine and drank it first. The liquid went into his throat and dissolved.
It became a ball of cool nectar, nourishing his throat and lungs, and a moist spiritual energy gently immersed into the air pockets, without the slightest bit of strongness. After drinking it, the refreshing feeling in his mouth disappeared, leaving only a trace of bitterness.
, which made him grin.
Yi Xiaohu also raised his neck and drank all the wine in the glass.
Xue Li and Han Feng looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They touched the wine cups and drank the wine. After tasting the bitter taste, everyone present had different expressions. Han Feng frowned and looked bitter.
But Xue Li enjoyed it very much, squinting his eyes and indulging in it. Yi Xiaohu's face looked as if nothing had happened.
Xu Bailu thought that her mother, who depended on her for life, was now separated from the yin and yang. Tears instantly rolled down her eyes, and she said bitterly: "I finally lost her, but I didn't expect it to be in this way."
"Since entering the world of cultivation, as a cultivator, you should have such an awareness. Even if this thing doesn't happen, time will take away their lives." Xue Li's voice was particularly vicissitudes of life.
"My parents passed away when I was ten years old. I still can't forget the snow that night. The snowflakes were as big as a palm, and the outside was silvery white. The cold wind cut our faces like knives, and it was very painful.
It hurts. My parents left the seats near the fire to my sister and me. We saved our lives by relying on the weak charcoal fire, but my parents froze to death on the coldest day of the year."
The expression on Yi Xiaohu's face seemed to be telling someone else's story.
"Why did you choose to practice?" Xu Bailu looked at the three men in front of him with tears in his eyes.
Looking at this youngest junior brother, Xue Li said seriously: "I didn't choose to practice, but practice chose me. In order to practice, I was born in this world. From the moment I was born, the flames surrounded me."
Yi Xiaohu nodded and agreed: "I started practicing Taoism in a daze. The reason may have something to do with those two pigs."
Han Feng chuckled and said with a smile: "Compared to these two ignorant guys, my goal is much clearer. That is to become a great monk who controls the way of heaven. Master is my role model."
