Chapter 335: Ripe Black and Ripe White
"Sure enough......" Ji Dan only glanced at Lu Chi, and understood a general idea in his heart. "The one who made the Lu family upside down, and kidnapped other people's daughters, is you and Tang Qinian, that kid. ”
"Master, you don't know how excessive the Lu family is, they ......" Hearing Ji Dan say this, Jiang Ying was angry and was about to argue, but saw Ji Dan gently wave his hand. "I already knew about the Lu family. ”
"Master, you...... You know?" Jiang Ying looked at Ji Dan in disbelief and asked tentatively. "The ones they did...... Enlightenment Selection ...... And the boys and girls who were sent to the Thousand Crane Hall......"
"Yes, I know that. Ji Dan nodded, but as soon as the words changed, a pair of eagle eyes stared at Jiang Ying, and his eyes were very sharp. "How do you know it's Chizuruden?"
"I ......" Jiang Ying was speechless for a while.
If she told the truth, Ji Dan would definitely be angry at her for acting so rashly, but in the face of her own master, Jiang Ying really couldn't lie, so she had to tell the truth from the beginning, including how to sneak into the Lu Mansion, how to mix up as a guest, and how to follow Lu Jing Chinese New Year's Eve, and finally saw the mysterious people of Jiutian and the Thousand Crane Hall, all of which were told to Ji Dan.
Sure enough, as she expected, the more she spoke, the darker Ji Dan's face became, and in the end, Ji Dan's face could almost wring out the ink.
The more Jiang Ying spoke, the quieter she became, the more she spoke, the more she lost confidence, and in the end, she simply shut up, Ji Dan stared at her tightly, and slapped her right hand hard on the table, which shook the teacup lid on the table and the tea burst out.
"It's nonsense!"
Jiang Ying was frightened by this sudden beat, but she also knew that she was at a loss, so she had to bow her head and dare not refute half a sentence.
"Do you know who that person is?" Ji Dan blew his beard and glared at him. "This kind of thing, that old slippery head will never rest assured of fake hands, let me tell you, the mysterious person of the Thousand Crane Hall that you met with Jiutian and Lu Jingnian that day is the head of the Thousand Crane Palace, Yue Xiao. ”
"Although I don't know how you used to evade his tracking, do you know that once Yuexiao's old slippery head finds you, your fate will ......" Ji Dan said this, his lips trembled a little with anger, and he stretched out his hand to cover the teacup on the table, but the more he spoke, the more angry he became, and he directly took the teacup and smashed it into powder on the table.
Jiang Ying was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything, buried her head low, and after waiting for a long time, she felt that her master's breath had gradually stabilized, so she said cautiously.
"Master, I know it's wrong, this matter is because Senior Brother Tang and I are too anxious and act rashly...... In the future, there will never be such a thing again. ”
"......" Ji Dan was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did he ask slowly. "Xiaoying, let me ask you, do you think that what the Lu family has done is too strange and weird to want to find out what they have done in the past?
"Of course. Jiang Ying raised her head, and a pair of clear eyes met Shang Ji's faint gaze. "Forcibly transforming a young man and girl who is in the prime of life into a furnace ding, and using them as a medicine guide for refining medicine, this kind of thing not only violates the way of heaven, but also violates ethics, of course, everyone will be punished!
"Now that you know that I have already known and seen through this matter, but I have not interfered, do you think it is wrong for me to do this?"
Ji Dan's tone was very calm, so calm that Jiang Ying couldn't hear his joy and anger. Raising her eyes and secretly looking at Ji Dan in front of her, seeing that there was indeed no expression on his face, Jiang Ying nodded with some hesitation. "Yes and no...... I just think those teenagers and girls who are used as furnaces or medicine are really pitiful...... But it's just that I think so, and I'm not in a position to ask anyone other than me to do anything, so I say, yes and no. ”
"In other words, if you have the ability, you will definitely save them, stop the Lu family, and stop the Thousand Crane Palace, right?"
“…… Be. Jiang Ying bit her lip and nodded vigorously. "I believe that not only will I do this, Senior Brother Tang, Senior Brother Tang will definitely think so!"
Looking at Ji Dan's almost indifferent expression, Jiang Ying asked a little anxiously, "Master, isn't it right to be benevolent?"
"It's not that it's wrong, but you have to know that there are not only black and white colors in this world. Ji Dan said very calmly. "What you think of as good and evil is only your personal good and evil, and in a larger scope, your small good may become a greater evil, while the big evil in your eyes can achieve greater good deeds. ”
"......" Jiang Ying lowered her head and thought for a long time, but still didn't understand, shook her head and said in a low voice. "Master, I don't understand. ”
"The Thousand Crane Hall instructed the Lu family to hold an annual Qiling selection, and selected young people and girls with excellent qualifications and good looks to use them as furnaces and medicines, which is indeed outrageous. But have you thought about it, the ambition of the Thousand Crane Hall will not be extinguished because of the so-called justice, even if you have a way to stop their behavior, they will find another way to strengthen their strength. ”
Ji Dan exhaled lightly, and said with a somewhat solemn expression: "Do you know what a sect will do if it wants to strengthen its strength from the front?"
“…… Annexation or plundering the resources of other smaller sects?" Jiang Ying thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Yes, that's it. Ji Dan nodded. "But you have to know that people's greed is endless, and as long as they taste a little sweetness, they want more, more...... Now that there is a channel for the selection of the Enlightenment Spirit, if I pretend not to know, they can continue to use this channel to secretly and slowly increase their strength, and the speed will not be too fast, but once this matter is broken and stopped, it is difficult to say what kind of things their ambitions will do. Once they taste the sweetness......"
"Those smaller sects are about to suffer......" Thinking of the tragic situation of the small sect being slaughtered, Jiang Ying couldn't help but shudder.
"Use these dozens of teenagers and girls every year to curb the greater ambitions of the Thousand Crane Palace, which one do you think is cost-effective?"
Jiang Ying was silent.
She actually wanted to say that neither of them was cost-effective, but if she had the ability to sit in the position of the master, I am afraid that in the face of such a situation, she would also make the same choice as the master.
There is no best ending in this world, and there will always be people who have to sacrifice.
Therefore, the difference between the happy and the unhappy is probably to see whether they are the one who is sacrificed.
