Chapter 161: Temptation
The disciples of the earth hall had gone away, and silence had returned to the mountains and forests, and I leaned against the tree, and the doubts in my heart were dense. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
According to what the two disciples of the Earth Hall said, the Eastern Barrier is garrisoned by the elites of the Shaolin Sect, but the three major sects have received orders from the hall master to rush to the East, so it means that the East may have another change, but what is the change this time?
Recently, the hall master has frequently summoned Tuoba Yi and other elders and disciples of the Sanqing Palace, and the content of the discussion should have been abdication, but there should have been other things, such as about me.
Since I joined the Sanqing Palace, whether it is the Great Elder or the Second Elder, they have never deliberately avoided me to talk about things in front of me, except this time, even if I inquired about it, they were all perfunctory, Yu'er usually can't keep secrets, but yesterday in addition to being more depressed, she still restrained herself, just because she was drunk and said a confused word: No matter what happens next, you have to live well...... This sentence seemed to remind me that what happened next would be bad for me.
On the other hand, the expressions of Tuoba Yi, the Great Elder and the others all looked worried, it seemed that this matter should be extremely tricky, they didn't want to tell me about it, they were afraid that I would think too much, they were afraid that I would worry, so they planned to solve it alone.
I rubbed my temples and guessed that it was about eight or nine to ten, but after all, it was not confirmed, and I didn't dare to jump to conclusions, and after thinking about it, if I wanted to find out these things, I had to ask the iceberg man.
Although the iceberg man did not participate in the secret meeting of the hall master like me, I just had a strong premonition that he must know the cause and effect. He privately asked the hall master to help me improve the steel cable, and he may have privately asked the hall master before. So. This series of events asked him to be right.
Having made up my mind, I straightened up and tightened my grip on the tightrope. Looking at the sky, I started exercising again.
Tightrope is my best skill for escaping. Especially now that the Three Realms Continent has faintly begun to be turbulent, the earth demon sealed at the foot of Sanqing Mountain is also a great hidden danger, and he will definitely not be so sealed in peace. Therefore, only by fully mastering the tightrope and increasing your speed may be able to save your life in a dangerous time.
For a whole day, I shuttled within the barrier of Sanqing Mountain, flying from the Human Hall to the Earth Temple, and from the Earth Hall to the Heavenly Temple, bypassing the meditation pool. After crossing the river, there was not much progress in a day's cultivation, but I was almost familiar with the improved steel cable.
As the sun slowly fell, I returned to the top of the temple again, and after waiting for a while, I saw the iceberg man walking over with light steps on his back and the tide.
He didn't talk nonsense as soon as he came up, and asked directly: "How are you practicing?" "There was a cold expression on his face as usual.
I turned around and said a word of Mo Xuan silently. The steel cable was torn and aimed at the big tree five hundred meters away, and when I stepped a little, the person swung over in an instant, only a few flickering. I was already close to the tree, and I kicked it back, and I kicked it on the tree. The body turned ninety degrees and the feet were on the tree again, at the same time. The steel cable on the right was quickly pulled out and flew towards the top of the mountain where the iceberg man was standing.
The steel cable on the other side shot straight into the bare hill. I silently recited the command again, and an iron ring immediately appeared out of thin air in the air, and the steel cable was firmly stuck on the iron ring, and at this time I had already turned around and swung towards the mountain again.
His feet touched the ground steadily, landing in front of the iceberg man, and the steel cables on both sides were also torn and retracted at the same time, and the whole back and forth took less than twenty seconds.
He nodded slightly, unable to see whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied, paused, and said bluntly: "Wait for you to practice for a few more days, and I will come to assess you." ”
I was stunned by his words, and cautiously asked: "How to assess" He is a well-known strict teacher, who has suffered a lot behind him in the past, and he didn't say that he wanted to assess me at that time, and this time he actually had to assess!
He touched Canglan with his backhand and looked at me with lowered eyes: "With Canglan, you just need to run as much as you can, don't be shot by my Canglan, even if you pass!" ”
My eyes widened in disbelief: "You're not mistaken? "What is the level of the iceberg man's archery? 100 shots! Arrows on fire! What's more, this bow and arrow is still vicissitudes, and it has an absolute tacit understanding, and since the battle on the Jiuyi battlefield, the iceberg man can send eight arrows between his minds, with such a terrifying record, if I am not shot to death, I will at least be disabled.
He looked at me lightly, with a serious expression of "I'm not mistaken".
I was about to retort with a sad face, but he gently bowed his head and muttered, "We are running out of time." ”
It was this sentence that made me swallow the idea of letting his subordinates show mercy, I stepped forward, bumped his arm, and asked in a soft tone, "Did something happen?" Why do you say there is not much time? ”
He blinked, returned to normal, glanced at me, turned sideways and said lightly, "It's nothing." ”
I turned to him and said eloquently: "It's nothing, we've been friends for so many years, don't think I don't know what you're thinking!" You're hiding something from me, aren't you? ”
He wanted to turn around again, don't look away from me, but I pulled him hard, and he couldn't turn around, so he had to give up and patiently stared at me.
The iceberg man is a person who can't lie, and he knows that if he lies, I will definitely see through it, so he chooses not to say anything.
Although I have excellent patience, once his stubborn temper comes up, I can't solve it anyway, so I have to use coercion and temptation, but fortunately, I have already figured out how to get out of the words of the iceberg man in the morning. I paused and said, "If you don't want to say it, you can go and ask the hall master." ”
He finally had a reaction: "The hall master won't tell you." ”
This sentence fully shows that everyone really has something to hide from me, and it has something to do with me.
I looked at him unwillingly, and made a resolute expression: "If the hall master doesn't tell me, then I will harm myself in front of him!" I think the hall master should be reluctant to let me get hurt. ”
As soon as I said a word, his face immediately changed, he stared at me for a long time, feeling that I didn't look like a lie, and only then did he hesitate to ask, "You know?" ”
A little anger slowly grew in his heart, the iceberg man really knew that the hall master actually liked me, he probably knew everything, and he knew it a long time ago, but he just hid it from me. Tell me nothing.
I turned away from him, and my tone was a little angry: "Yes. I see, if I didn't know it all along. You're going to keep it a secret from me? ”
He took two steps closer to me, stopped behind me, and the cold breath lingered around me, obviously it was so cold, but after so long time together, the cold has gradually become a good way to resolve difficulties in my heart.
He sighed lightly and said bluntly, "Yes, if you don't find out yourself, I will never tell you." The Lord of the Temple will not tell you, and no one will tell you. Seeing that I still didn't turn his head, he continued: "Actually, many people know the hall master's intentions for you, but they haven't said it, and you don't want to believe it all along. Do you remember the Three Thousand Kills Technique? You have always thought that it was a coincidence that the hall master and you could have a spiritual connection, and thought that Xia Momo was in your body, which allowed you to borrow the hall master's exercises, in fact, the reason why you can use the hall master's spiritual power. It is because you love him and he loves you. ”
He paused, and said helplessly: "Do you remember the mantra of three thousand kills?" My heart, for your heart. Back then, when you silently recited this sentence. The hall master had a strong reaction, and you didn't think so at the time, but for the hall master. It's like a bolt from the blue, that's at that time. He has loved you, and the lord of the temple has loved you much earlier than you think. ”
I turned my head in shock. But the iceberg man's appearance was so serious that he couldn't be more serious, recalling the Yi Mu at that time, it was indeed as the iceberg man said, when the hall master left in a panic, the great elder, the second elder looked at me with that kind of eyes, and Tuoba Yi's temptation, the disciples privately pondered their thoughts, and now when I think about it again, I find that I have ignored so much.
I was a little incredulous, and forced him: "Since you already knew, why did you persuade me to choose Tuoba Yi, you know my mind?" "I told him personally that I like the hall master, more than once or twice, but he always persuaded me that I would find a better person, a more suitable person than the hall master, and Tuoba Yi is a person who is suitable for me. He clearly knows my thoughts, and he knows that the hall master likes me, but he just doesn't say it, and everyone doesn't say it.
In the face of my questioning, he glanced over, and a trace of hesitation flashed on his face: "The hall master has his identity, status, and his responsibilities and responsibilities, maybe he loves you the most, but he is not the most suitable for you." ”
When the iceberg man said this, his eyes flashed with panic, he didn't dare to look at me, so he turned his head to the side, my heart moved, looked at him, and said tentatively: "The reason why you don't want me to choose the hall master is because you know that the hall master intends to sacrifice himself to save the catastrophe of the Three Realms Continent, right?" ”
His eyes immediately changed color, and he turned away again when he saw that I was staring at him, not daring to look at me.
"If you don't speak, you are acquiescing, you really know everything, what did you start to know? What else do you know? "Looking at his eyes, I know that his private friendship with the hall master must be not shallow, and he must know more than me, I plan to finish asking in one go today, and I must reveal all his secrets today.
He turned his back on, and when he saw me stalking and turning to him, he simply closed his eyes, out of sight.
I took a deep breath and thought of a bold plan.
Yu'er hinted to me that I would have a problem next, and that I might be able to use this to get out of his words.
I typed the draft in my heart, and then said solemnly: "I know that you have always been for my good, you don't tell me that the real intention of the hall master is that I am afraid that I will be impulsive and will go to the road of self-destruction with the hall master, but you should know very well what kind of person I am, the hall master has paid too much for me, I can't watch him take risks alone, in the end, the hall master is also a person, he has lost too much, but what he has gained is more responsibilities and burdens, why should he bear the catastrophe of the Three Realms Continent alone?" He has been lonely for too long, he has not even tasted the most ordinary family affection in the world, and he does not even have the right to love others, don't you think this is too unfair to the hall master? Lonely people actually need warmth more! ”
Although he still didn't turn his head, his stiff back trembled. I knew he listened to me.
My tone softened again, and I said slowly: "I have also asked myself before, whether I want to firmly grasp the Tuoba Yi in front of me and respect him like a guest for a stable life, or do I want to share the weal and woe with the hall master regardless of everything, even if it is destroyed, I am willing to do it." I didn't know how to choose, but now I have made a choice. I paused deliberately, and he turned to look at me, waiting for my next step. I said, "I choose to be with the hall master, in the same boat, and share weal and woe." ”
He didn't seem surprised, only raised an eyebrow and stopped talking.
I stared at him firmly and said word by word: "There is another reason why I will do this, I am a dying person, and accompanying the hall master on the last journey is the greatest reward for me!" ”
He opened his eyes in an instant, his eyes were full of surprise, I clenched my fists, and finally waited for his next words: "You ......"
The next words stuck in his throat, but his expression had betrayed him, and sure enough, there was a catastrophe coming! (To be continued.) )
