Chapter 41: Hypocrisy and Wrongdoing
Shen Mutian pondered for a moment, and said lightly: "Master, this matter can't be hidden from Helian Qiqing. Senior Sister Lin's ability, I believe that they were already very clear when they were in the Heavenly Xuan Continent, Helian Qiqing is so wise that he is almost a demon, it is impossible not to see that Senior Sister has already penetrated the secret of the teleportation array. Now what we have to think about is, what do we do if he does offer a piece of the pie? Say no or say yes? If he refuses, I don't know what he will do, and it will be a hidden danger to us after all. ”
Qi Xia Yuanjun nodded and said, "What I'm most afraid of is that if he can't be coerced, we will lose the opportunity if he spreads this matter." However, in this way, everyone will not be able to get benefits, and it will be considered a defeat for both sides, and I believe that it is not what Helian Qiqing wants to see. ”
Shen Mutian frowned tightly and asked, "What is the master going to do?" ”
Qi Xia Yuanjun thought for a while and said, "You can accompany him as a guest these days." As long as he doesn't specify this matter for a day, we will all act as if we don't know what to do. ”
Shen Mutian's face sank, nodded and said, "I know the truth, and I must live up to my mission." But do you have to inform my sister about this? ”
Qi Xia Yuanjun shook his head and said, "She is concentrating on arranging the teleportation array, don't bother her for this little thing." Let's talk about it depending on the situation, and wait until we figure out Helian Qiqing's true meaning. ”
Shen Mutian couldn't ask for such a decision, and said with a slight smile: "The master is wise. ”
Qi Xia Yuanjun glanced at him and couldn't help but sigh secretly. The mind of his apprentice, can he still not see it after many years of master and apprenticeship? Although he didn't know when it happened, Shen Mutian was obviously moved by Lin Lan, if this was put on someone else, Qi Xia Yuanjun would have a headache. Fortunately, although Shen Mutian was emotional, his cultivation did not fall behind. On the contrary, because of the drive of emotion, the entry of cultivation has been accelerated a lot. The only drawback is that he thinks too much, and he almost failed when he broke through the Yuan Infant Stage, which made Qixia Yuanjun quite scruples.
He doesn't think that only being single-minded can only be called being single-minded on the road of cultivating the truth, and the so-called conforming to one's own heart naturally includes love, hatred, and hatred. If Lin Lan was still alive, he would naturally not interfere in the affairs between these two children, and would even help Shen Mutian achieve his wishes, lest this matter become a demonic obstacle in his heart. Leave endless hidden dangers.
What's more, Lin Lan's great achievements are no less than Shen Mutian's, he is also a genius of cultivation, and has repeatedly brought great contributions to the sect, such a person is fortunately a disciple of his own sect, otherwise he will have to find a way to get rid of it even if he is unscrupulous. And one of the friars' natural weaknesses is the fragility of feelings. No matter how high a woman is, she is much more emotionally fragile than a male monk. If there is no Shen Mutian. They also had to worry about whether Lin Lan would be abducted by men from other sects, so Qixia Yuanjun was very optimistic about the pair of Shen Mutian and Lin Lan, and would definitely not be stingy to help them when necessary.
Seeing Helian Qiqing this time, Qixia Yuanjun couldn't help but be more sure of this idea in his heart, and secretly rejoiced that there was also a Shen Mutian in the sect whose conditions were no less than Helian Qiqing. On appearance, on cultivation, on talent, on ability. These two men are both dragons and phoenixes among people, and they are not much different, plus Lin Lan has been adrift with Helian Qiqing for decades before, and he gets along with such a man day and night. If you are moved, it is not strange at all. If it weren't for Shen Mutian, if it weren't for Shen Mutian, who could get close to the water and get the moon first, the friendship with Lin Lan was even before Helian Qiqing, I'm afraid that now they are already having a headache How to stop Lin Lan from falling in love with Helian Qiqing.
From this point of view, it was indeed an extremely correct decision to let Shen Mutian look at Helian Qiqing. Regardless of whether Helian Qiqing had any special thoughts about Lin Lan, just looking at his conditions and the experience of suffering with Lin Lan was enough to make Shen Mutian regard him as a great threat, and he would definitely be meticulous and try his best to prevent the relationship between him and Lin Lan, and without getting along, the chance of the relationship heating up would be very slim, and it would be even more difficult for Lin Lan to have the opportunity to be abducted by Helian Qiqing.
Qi Xia Yuanjun thought of this, so he told Shen Mutian a few more words, and then disappeared and returned to Feitian Peak. Shen Mutian took a deep breath, looked at the direction of Feitian Peak with complicated eyes, turned around and walked out.
He could more or less guess Qi Xia Yuanjun's thoughts, but this idea was not harmful to him, so he was willing to cooperate. It's just that he was a little unsure what Lin Lan would think, after all, doing so could be regarded as calculating her, if she knew the truth, would she be angry because of this? He could see his mind clearly, but he couldn't see her clearly, although he didn't want anyone to snatch her, but he didn't want to bear her resentment and accusations, and he was a little hesitant for a while.
Merely......
No matter what Lin Lan thinks now, whether she wants him or not, she has to work hard to fight for him. It's artificial, he doesn't believe that his sincerity can't be exchanged for the corresponding return, no matter what, no matter what means are used, the junior sister can only be his, it will only be his, he has absolute confidence in this!
He has always been a determined man, and what he has decided has never changed. Therefore, it was just a short period of confusion, and he overcame that negative emotion, cheered himself up, and regained the strong-willed, gentle and free Yuan Chu Yuanjun.
With Qixia Yuanjun's order, Shen Mutian came over to accompany Helian Qiqing every day for the next few days, and took him around the Ethereal Immortal Sect to enjoy the scenery. There are thousands of peaks in the Ethereal Immortal Sect, each with their own different style, so they won't get bored when they look at the past one by one. Shen Mutian didn't say a word about Lin Lan and the teleportation array, as long as Helian Qiqing didn't take the initiative to talk about it, he made up his mind to pretend that he didn't know anything, pretending to be stupid, but he wanted to see who could calm down.
However, both of them are outstanding men, the wind god is handsome, dashing and dusty, not comparable to ordinary men, and they have walked around in the Ethereal Immortal Sect for such a circle, which has attracted widespread attention since the first day. Not only women, even those male disciples are all here, every day no matter where they go, they will attract a sea of people, although the female disciples are seduced and secretly promised, the male disciples are also intimidated by their demeanor, beating their chests and sighing why they don't have the same temperament as them.
But fortunately, the Ethereal Immortal Sect is one of the four major sects in the cultivation realm, and the disciples have their own demeanor, although the crowds of people come to "admire" the demeanor of the two, but they are all looking at them in a distance, and no one rushes to them without knowing each other to be embarrassed. And they are accustomed to being looked up to by everyone and become the focus of attention, and they have already had enough resistance to this kind of battle, coupled with that kind of arrogance, so that they can maintain a normal heart no matter when and where, and turn a blind eye to those who come to hear the wind, and they are very happy to go down this way.
But for some reason, Shen Mutian always felt that Helian Qiqing's expression was different, as if he always had a feeling of being different from himself, and he couldn't help but be a little more vigilant in his heart.
And this Helian Qiqing was also calm, he was taken by him to wander aimlessly in the sect for several days, but he did not show any impatience at all, but a chic and leisurely and enthusiastic appearance, and he couldn't help but frown secretly.
The stronger Helian Qiqing's endurance, the deeper the person's scheming, the more difficult it is to deal with. And what the hell is he doing here? If it was really just to visit Lin Lan, until she was in "retreat and cultivation", she should have met and left, and come back to inquire after a while, instead of wasting time and energy by living in other sects all the time, especially since this sect has always been an opponent who has not dealt with her own sect.
Shen Mutian has been on guard, and Helian Qiqing saw it in his eyes, and his gloomy mood was finally relieved. He didn't know what was wrong with him, he obviously fulfilled his wish and returned to his sect, and it seemed that everything was back to normal, but he always felt as if something was missing in his heart, empty and lost. And he always inadvertently remembered the days when he was with Lin Lan, although those days were hard and dangerous, in retrospect, he felt that the aftertaste was endless, he thought that he was really crazy, what was there to remember about those days?!
He tried his best to return his life to normal, cultivating and living without distractions like he had before he left the Tian Yuan Continent, but he found that it was too difficult. His strange appearance even attracted the attention of the Sect Master of the Ghost Xia Sect, and his father deliberately looked for him, and did not ask him what was wrong, but said something to him.
"The exercises of our Ghost Xia Sect pay attention to conforming to our hearts, and we can do what we want, and we don't have to investigate any cause and effect too much. If we talk about cause and effect in everything, these exercises of ours should not exist in the world at all, so how can we talk about cultivation? You have to remember that everything that exists in this world must have a reason for its existence, and we don't need to get to the bottom of it, we just need to hold on to it. If you can't even do this, then you won't be able to practice the exercises of this sect anymore! ”
Hearing these words, he suddenly felt enlightened, and suddenly found the crux of the matter.
Yes, since the root of his various abnormalities lies in Lin Lan, then he will come to Lin Lan to solve the problem. It just so happened that they had worked hard to reach the Tian Yuan Continent through teleportation, and he also had a share of the credit for this, and the benefits could not all be taken by the Ethereal Immortal Sect. With this high-sounding reason, he naturally came to the door openly and confidently. (To be continued......)
