Chapter 261: Ghost Paradise 2
Xiao Baitang looked at the seventh water blue in horror: "Ghost King, what did you say?" β
"Nothing. Let's go! "The seventh water blue took the lead in crossing the Fengling River. After we also walked across the other side, I couldn't help but look back, there was an extra man with a great figure beside Xue Ling'er-Zhan Qing!
Xue Ling'er used the illusion of the ghost domain to create a battle secretary?
Perhaps, that Zhan Qing is a real existence for her, right?
Xue Ling'er took Zhan Qing's arm, leaned on his shoulder and waved at us.
Little White Sugar's tears couldn't stop flowing.
But my heart felt like a stone had been crushed, and I couldn't breathe. It wasn't until I saw Xue Ling'er and Zhan Qing walking hand in hand towards the depths of the ghost domain that I pulled the crying little white sugar and walked outside the ghost domain.
When I reached the top of the mountain, the vast fog that shrouded the outside of the ghost domain had disappeared, and the ghost domain revealed its true face for the first time. As the camel said, the real ghost domain is nothing more than a small country in the Western Regions buried underground, or rather, just a small ancient city.
I hadn't seen the ghost realm in the past, and now it was half a city hidden under a sinkhole.
I stared at the ghost domain and said, "Why is the original illusion gone?" β
Seventh Shui Lan said in a low voice: "Either the Heavenly Dao Jade Bi is shattered, and the Ghost Domain Phantom Array has lost its support; Either Lin Jingyuan shattered a corner of the phantom array when he left. Looking at it now, the ghost domain can't be hidden. β
Just as I was about to speak, Seventh Shui Lan suddenly turned around and said, "Wu Zhao, have you really entered the fate trajectory of Zhan Qing?" β
"Indeed." I nodded, "I've seen almost all of Zhanqing's life." It's just that I didn't see Zhan Qing being captured for any mistake. The last thing I saw was that I was tied up in a cell. β
"What a fight!" Seventh Shui Lan sneered, "I didn't expect him to find another successor for himself in this way." β
Seventh Shui Lan turned his head to look at me and said, "You are now considered to be the descendant of the two bloodlines of humans and ghosts. β
I couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and immediately understood the meaning of the seventh water blue. Zhan Qing followed his grandfather Zhan Liren to learn art for ten years, and I didn't miss it at all, so isn't that equivalent to ten years of learning art myself? I've almost inherited the secret method of networking.
Although most of the secret methods of the Zhan family have been lost, they are no longer the same compared to the Wu family. As far as the Zhanjia Sword Technique is concerned, although it is not as magical as the Nine Swords of Calamity, when it comes to ruthlessness and ferocity, it has already surpassed the Wu family's inheritance countless times. With this set of sword techniques alone, I am enough to compete with most martial arts masters.
According to the seventh water blue, Zhan Wuxiang should have deliberately let me get the inheritance. But what purpose did he do so?
As I pondered, Seventh Shui Lan said in a deep voice, "Remember, you can't tell anyone what you see, especially not to the people of the Hanging Mirror Division. As far as I know, the Feng family, who founded the Hanging Mirror Division, has a bitter enmity with each other. If you're just a half-life descendant, maybe they won't be able to do their best against you. However, once the secret of your connections is revealed, the Hanging Mirror Division will do its best to hunt you down, and the pursuit will be endless. β
I looked up and said, "What kind of enmity did the Hanging Mirror Division have with Zhan Wuxiang?" Zhan Wuxiang has been dead for hundreds of years, and they still can't let go of this hatred? β
"I don't know." Seventh Shui Lan shook his head and said, "I only know that the Hanging Mirror Division has spared no effort to hunt down the descendants of the Zhan family several times, and even the distant relatives of the Zhan family have never let go. You have to be careful yourself. β
"I understand!" As soon as I finished speaking, I heard an angry roar from the hillside: "I see which of you dares to do it!" β
Monk?
The voice in the castle on the top of the mountain is clearly Monk Shi.
Ye Ember and I looked at each other, and at the same time lunged in the direction of the castle. When the two of us climbed to the top of the city, the first thing we saw was Monk Shi who was confronting the judge from the north of the Hell Gate.
The brigade brought by the northern judge set up dozens of mortars used by the Japanese army, and the muzzles of the guns pointed directly at the ghost area under the mountain.
I wouldn't be surprised that the Hell Gate had taken down the Japanese army's underground fortifications, and that they were able to capture a large number of munitions, even if they came out with field guns. But what makes me wonder is, how could Monk Shi single-handedly stop in front of the gates of hell?
The northern judge led by the Hell Gate said in a cold voice: "Shi Bucong, you have seen it yourself, the ghost domain under the mountain was born, if you don't blow up the ghost domain with a heavy fist now, when the evil spirit is born as a disaster, can you Shi Bucong afford this responsibility?" β
Monk Shi roared angrily: "Why don't you tell Lao Tzu those big truths, Lao Tzu doesn't understand!" I knew my brother was in it! Whoever dares to do it, I will kill him! β
Judge Bei said coldly: "Shi Bucong, don't think that this official is afraid of you by giving you a few colors." If it weren't for the Ninefold Order in your hand, you would have been in a different place. β
"Lao Tzu just uses the nine-fold order to press you, how about it?" Monk Shi didn't mean to be fooled, "If you have the ability, you can kill me, and then bombard the ghost domain." I'd like to see if the Hell Gate will go to war with the Nine Pavilions for you! β
"You ......," Judge North said with a deep breath, "Good, good!" Nangong Ling, you still come out to persuade Shi Bu to obey! I'll give you five minutes, and when the five minutes are up, I'll kill him here, regardless of whether he has the Nine Orders in his hand or not. Before the Great Righteousness, I didn't believe that the Nine Pavilions would be the enemy of Shudao. β
I didn't come out all the time, but I found Nangong Ling standing at the hell gate. Now it seems that it is indeed Nangong Ling who stands on the opposite side of the monk.
Ye Yan was about to speak when I stopped him back: "Let the monk choose for himself." β
Nangong Ling is a choice for Monk Shi, but why not for us?
If Monk Shi chooses to back down, the righteous anger between me and him will not be severed, but it will not be the same as before.
From the bottom of my heart, I can understand this choice.
However, it also means that the monk is about to embark on a different life - it is time for him to wash his hands.
There is a difference between the rivers and lakes and the outside of the rivers and lakes, and we will no longer drag Monk Shi to die with us.
Nangong Ling walked towards Monk Shi and said in a low voice: "Brother Shi, you ......"
Monk Shi said in a deep voice: "Nangong Ling, I only ask you one question. If the person down below is your father, will you let me go? β
Nangong Ling exclaimed: "How can it be the same? Wu summoned them ......"
Monk Shi said in a deep voice: "It's no different. They have no blood relationship with me, but they went deep into Miao Xinjiang for me and died for me. At that time, they were just missing a woman who was around to persuade them to stop. β
Monk Shi looked at Nangong Ling and said, "I'll say it again in the end, either you leave now, or we end up here." β
I can hear that Monk Shi doesn't ask Nangong Ling to advance and retreat with him, he just wants Nangong Ling to leave safely.
Nangong Ling was silent for a long time, and stood behind Monk Shi without saying a word. Monk Shi's body couldn't help but tremble slightly. I could see that he wanted to turn around and hug Nangong Ling and cheer loudly, but he just forcibly suppressed his urge to cheer.
Ye Yan slapped his thigh: "Let's ......"
Ye Yan's face changed before he finished speakingβwe saw Nangong Ling raise her hand and point at herself.
Monk Shi turned his back to Nangong Ling, and we couldn't see her movements, but we could see it clearly, Nangong Ling was hinting that the northern judge was putting pressure on the monk with himself.
Judge Bei sneered: "Shi Bucong, I admire your righteousness, but it's a pity that you used it in the wrong place." For the sake of justice, even if I kill a thousand by mistake, I can't let the evil spirit come out. β
"Shi Bu, I warn you one last time! Do you want to take your woman to die in this barren mountain for the sake of righteousness? β
This sentence of the northern judge happened to hit the monk's soft underbelly.
If this choice had been placed in ancient times, it might not have been true at all. In ancient times, it was not uncommon for men to kill their wives for righteousness, or even to kill the nine tribes for the sake of righteousness. In ancient times, women were also proud of the righteousness of their husbands and were willing to die.
But this is not antiquity!
Monk Shi would not frown even if he was cut by a thousand knives, but he was reluctant to Nangong Ling. Nangong Ling is the flesh of his heart, it is impossible for him to watch Nangong Ling die in front of his eyes, let alone take Nangong Ling away with his own hands.
As for Nangong Ling, I can understand it too. She can do anything for Monk Shi, but Ye Shen and I don't have the kind of friendship with her that allows her to be born and die together. In her opinion, Monk Shi is the most important person, and if she can sacrifice us to protect Monk Shi, she will not hesitate to choose the latter. There's nothing wrong with that!
I don't know why, I always feel that Nangong Ling seems to be forcing Monk Shi to choose between love and righteousness, and she seems to have been verifying her weight in Monk Shi's heart.
Ye Yan gritted his teeth next to me and whispered, "Damn, what is Nangong Ling doing, trying to force the monk to death?" Let's get out! β
I don't know how I could have said, "Wait! β
As soon as I spoke, I saw Monk Shi holding the copper stick in his hand tightly, and his body with his back to Nangong Ling was trembling slightly.
The northern judge hit the railway while it was hot: "History is not followed, there are not many women in this world who can still stand behind you at the moment of life and death." Do you think that giving up the woman you love for the sake of righteousness is something worthy of respect from others? You're wrong! People who can easily give up even their own women, why should they say the word 'love and righteousness'? β
I couldn't see the monk's expression, but I could see the copper rod in his hand slowly seeping into the ground.
I can't understand Monk Shi's inner struggle, but I can see that Monk Shi's emotions have begun to gradually get out of control. I said in a deep voice: "Ye Yan, don't wait, I'm afraid this kind of thing won't have any results." I believe ......"
Before I finished my words, I saw Monk Shi suddenly raise his head and say in a hoarse voice, "Can you let Nangong Ling go?" β
Judge North said, "That depends on how you choose." β
