Chapter 40: Verbal Sword
Who? Who are you?
In the boundless darkness, Mu Shan suddenly saw a bright light in front of him, gently sprinkled on the two figures, vague and distant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A familiar and warm feeling, with the appearance of those two figures, gradually rippled in Mu Shan's heart. It's like when I was a child, I used to lie comfortably in Qin Mei's arms, basking in the sun comfortably, enjoying the laziness and calm at noon.
The flames, little by little in the darkness, gradually spread, gradually burning the entire space into a sea of blazing fire.
And in the center of the sea of fire, the man still hugged the woman in his arms tightly, holding a baby in his hand, his expression was calm, without the slightest panic and fear, as if those flames were just some insignificant existence.
"Dad, mother......" Mu Shan naturally shouted, as if from the bottom of his heart, as if he was instinctive from the bottom of his heart, and rushed towards the two figures.
It's just that the distance that is obviously close at hand, why does it seem like an endless misdirection, no matter how Mu Shan runs desperately and shouts hoarsely, it is always out of reach!
The vision gradually blurred, as if what was seen in front of me was nothing more than a dreamlike cloud of smoke.
"Dad, mother......" Mu Shan sat up from the bed suddenly, his face was dripping with sweat, his chest was rising and falling violently, and he was panting heavily.
Qin Mei grabbed Mu Shan's big hand, patted his back gently, and comforted him in a low voice: "Mu Shan, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my mother is here!" It's all gone, it's all right, ah! ”
Mu Shan followed the prestige, only to see that under the faint light, the wrinkles on Qin Mei's face seemed to have become more numerous and deep, and the eye sockets were slightly red, and traces of crying could be faintly seen.
Mu Shan felt guilty in his heart, and said with a choked voice: "Mother...... The child is tired again, and you are scared......"
"Don't say it, my mother knows. The great sages and good teachers have told my mother. Qin Mei's voice was filled with a bit of approval and relief, and said: "Mu Shan, it's good, you really haven't lost the face of our Mu family, my mother is proud of you!" ”
Jia Xu took a step forward, stared at the bandages on Mu Shan's body with slightly squinted eyes, and asked with a kind and caring face, "Little brother, how do you feel?" The wound is nothing serious, right? ”
Mu Shan turned his head and looked at Jia Xu, who was a little gloomy in the dark, and a trace of vigilance flashed inexplicably in his heart.
Mu Shan shook his head, shook off the ridiculous thought, looked around, and saw Xiuniang, Zhang Jiao, Lian Duxue, and Jia Xu all surrounding him, making the small room a little crowded.
Mu Shan moved his hands and upper body, only felt a slight pain, and grinned: "Thank you for your concern, a small skin injury, it's not a big deal." ”
Zhang Jiao handed over the ancient sword to Mu Shan, glanced at Jia Xu meaningfully, and said, "Little brother, take your sword with you, don't lend it to irrelevant people easily." You must know that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, sinister and unknowable, and the heart of defense is indispensable! ”
When Jia Xu heard this, his face was slightly angry, and he said: "If the great sage and good teacher have something to say, you might as well say it directly, such insinuations and hidden arrows hurt people, it will only make Wen He look down on you!" ”
Lian Duxue stroked the fur of the little fox in her arms back and forth, and said coldly: "You are not a good person, I can clearly sense this." The depth of the evil thoughts in your heart, the weight of the darkness, is something I have never encountered in all these years. ”
Mu Shan glanced at Lian Duxue in displeasure, and raised his voice: "Brother Jia is Mu Shan's benefactor, please speak with respect, don't spew blood for no reason!" ”
"Little brother, do you know, Dusk Snow Daoyou and I have been friends for five years, his five senses are stronger than anyone else, he is born to sense the hostility and evil thoughts in the hearts of others, and he has never looked at the wrong person!"
Zhang Jiao's eyes stared at Jia Xu deeply, as if he wanted to pass through his skin and see through his heart: "And this person is from an evil cultivator in the cultivation realm, the little brother may not know what an evil cultivation is, let me give you an example." For example, in order to refine some powerful magic weapons, they will use the blood of countless children as an introduction, and then search for hundreds of innocent people, kill them, extract their souls, and confin them in magic weapons, its viciousness and cruelty are simply madness! ”
Zhang Jiao's words were loud, and Mu Shan and the others were secretly frightened, only to feel that the night seemed to have become longer and colder, and even the light emitted by the lone lamp in the house was a little white.
"One side of the story, not to be believed!" Jia Xu angrily ridiculed: "What is good, what is evil!" It's just a conflict of interests, and if you define our sect as an evil cultivator, it's just because we touch your interests, and our strength is weak, that's all! ”
"In the eyes of those of you who claim to be righteous, we evil cultivators are people who have sinned so badly that they will not be able to die. However, in our eyes, you are not sanctimonious on the surface, but secretly wolf-hearted! The Qing Yingwu you are talking about is indeed a loss of conscience, is it because he is a sect that all evil cultivators are like this! So according to you, as long as there is a bad person in the world, then all the living people should be killed, deserve to die, right? ”
Jia Xu agitated his lips and swords, and in a few words, Zhang Jiao was blocked without anything to say, but Jia Xu did not mean to stop there, but walked to Mu Shan's couch with a disgruntled face, pointed to the evil spirit in his hand and asked: "Little brother, from ancient times to the present, how many people have died under these sharp blades, do you say that the sword is an evil weapon?" ”
"This ......" Mu Shan was speechless, he had never considered this question, how could he possibly answer it.
"The same sword, in your hands, I believe he will be a sharp weapon to slay demons and uphold justice. And if it falls into the hands of some villains with ill intentions and honey-bellied swords, I am afraid that it will be a murder weapon that will destroy the souls of life. This is true not only for weapons, but also for martial arts. The key is to see what kind of motivation and heart the person who uses him has. No matter how evil the martial arts method is, if it is used to do chivalrous deeds and save the common people, then it will no longer be evil. ”
At the end, Jia Xu smiled and kindly asked Mu Shan's opinion, "Little brother, what do you think?" ”
Mu Shan nodded in agreement and said, "What Engong said is reasonable, and a teaching will make the pimple in Mu Shan's heart dissolve and disintegrate." ”
Zhang Jiao saw that Mu Shan was obedient to Jia Xu's words, and through this debate, the relationship between the two seemed to be a little closer, and he couldn't help but remind anxiously: "Little brother, if you think about it carefully, this person appeared near the ruined temple the night before, and ran out when we repelled the snake demon. To say that it is a coincidence, it is too much. ”
"That's no coincidence!" Jia Xu didn't refute it, the light in his eyes was more dazzling than the dim light in this dark night: "Little brother, after I separated from you that day, I left Tianyin Village, and I was sleeping in the wilderness, thinking about making do with it for the night, and then rushing when it was dawn." But in the middle of the night, I suddenly saw the fire in the back mountain of your Tianyin Village, roaring like thunder, and I vaguely felt that something big might have happened, so I rushed to you with all my might. When I hurried to the scene, I saw the scene of the snake demon escaping. ”
Speaking of this, Jia Xu paused for a while, sighed, and said with a look of grievance: "To say something that doesn't matter, at that time, you were unconscious on the ground, the snake demon escaped, and the great sage and the good teacher and that, uh, that Taoist friend were also exhausted of spiritual power, if I had bad intentions, how could you live until now?" ”
"You ......" Zhang Jiao only felt a suffocation in his chest, and secretly said that the sharpness of this person's words in front of him was by no means comparable to his own, and he could only snort angrily at the moment, and said: "Little brother, listen to my advice, you must be careful to beware of this person!" ”
