Chapter 182 [The Conscience Is Finally Over, But No One Can Bear It]
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head helplessly, and said: "At the beginning, in the Tiance Mansion, this person was also a fierce general, if it was according to his merits, at least three generations of heirs could be guaranteed, but unfortunately, it was a pity that after the first big profit, I didn't know how to be sober about myself, we have survived the days of competing for great profits, and the next thing is to be an official for the benefit of the people." How to benefit the people? First of all, we must value the people in our hearts. If you have harmed the people and do not regret it, it is difficult for such a mind to stay in the court for a long time. ”
Someone came to the side of the eldest grandson Wuji and said in a low voice: "These levels set up by Gu Tianya are not so much a conscience as a screening. For him, it is to screen out people who can be repaired, and for our Highness, it is to screen out ministers who can be relied on, such a miracle strategy of killing two birds with one stone, but he doesn't need to implement it himself, he only needs to send a few apprentices, and all the goals have been achieved......"
Eldest Sun Wuji nodded, and said with envy: "Right now, he only accepts a few disciples. ”
……
At this time, Tan Xiao had already finished singing the song, and the girl stood quietly under the moon and looked at it from afar, and suddenly smiled, her demeanor was indescribably elegant, and she said crisply: "Gu's disciples, I have seen you, and the song under the moon before is counted as a gift of meeting." I was an unpopular apprentice in the sect, and my master had always been on guard against me as a villain. He refused to teach me knowledge, so I didn't have too much confusion, so I didn't ask everyone like Cheng Chumo and Li Chongyi. ”
The girl paused as she spoke, and then said, "But I have a little junior brother who is too young to ask you for a gift for the time being, so I only use a small song as a gift for my little junior brother?" ”
Everyone was slightly stunned, and their eyes subconsciously looked at the child kneeling on the side of the road.
Most people were thinking about what this child's problem would be, but some people noticed Tan Xiao's tone just now, these people were all shrewd, and they couldn't help but glance at each other, and said in a low voice: "Did you hear it, there is something unusual between this woman's words." When she called Cheng Chumo and Li Chongyi just now, she didn't call her senior brother respectfully. This woman doesn't look like a person who doesn't know etiquette, so why does she call her by her name? ”
Everyone looked at each other again, and they all saw the meaning in each other's eyes, and when they looked at Tan Xiao again, there was already a little more attention in their eyes.
This girl cannot be regarded as an ordinary disciple.
When she mentioned Gu Tianya just now, it was in a relaxed and complaining tone.
Why dare to use that tone, smart people can figure out a thing or two.
Li Shimin glanced at Tan Xiao twice, and had a faint realization in his heart, he suddenly beckoned to Tan Xiao, and said with a vigilant voice: "You remember, Princess Pingyang is Lone's sister." ”
This is quite profound, and it sounds like the elder brother is standing on the platform for his sister. Tan Xiao curtsied and said leisurely: "It turns out that you are the new prince of the Tang Dynasty, and my master said that you will be a good emperor." ”
This was not the answer to the question, but all the smart people present heard the charm, and it was obvious that this woman was revealing her identity, and she was clearly talking as a peer.
As a disciple of the Gu family, it is said that she is not qualified to do so, but once the truth is bizarre, there must be a reason.
Everyone has confirmed their guesses.
Li Shimin looked at Tan Xiao deeply, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "You stand aside, you are not guarding the checkpoint tonight." If Lone's guess is correct, your little junior brother is the real one who asks the heart, right? ”
Sure enough, Tan Xiao nodded, and said calmly: "I'm afraid that he will be bullied by you when he is young." ”
This is the performance of a calf guard.
Li Shimin didn't want to fight with a girl, so he led everyone directly to the child, and when he got to him, he found that the child was still holding something in his hand.
Everyone's faces were stunned, and then they felt a chill in their hearts, just because the child was only eight or nine years old, but he was holding a skull without fear, at this time the night was deep, the bright moon in the sky shone on countless graves, and a child was holding a skull, how to look at this scene and feel weird.
But I saw that the child slowly raised his head, staring at everyone with a pair of eyes as pure as water, and suddenly raised the skull in his hand, and said softly to everyone: "This is my mother." ”
Everyone's hearts twitched.
Then he saw the child stretch out his hand and point to the mound, and said again: "The one hundred and ninety-two people buried here are all my elders and uncles, and they died under the indiscriminate sword, but my master ordered them to be killed." After their deaths, they were specially buried on the side of the road, and a large monument was deliberately erected to deter the displaced people from committing crimes with their deaths. ”
Everyone subconsciously looked at the mound, and there was a vague realization in their hearts.
This is Gu Tianya's third level, and it is also the most heart-wrenching level.
I saw the child kneeling on the ground, his eyes were full of clarity, he looked up at everyone, and said again: "I am a disciple of the Gu family, and I can't figure out some confusion in my heart, but I can't ask the master about these confusions, so I want to take the opportunity to ask you." I just don't know, who wants to give me an answer......"
Everyone glanced at each other, and the eldest grandson Wuji stepped out of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "You ask." ”
The child slowly stood up from the ground, staring at everyone with clear and refreshing eyes, and said, "My master killed my relatives, should I hate him or respect him?" ”
This is not an easy question to answer.
If everyone answered that they should hate Gu Tianya, but this child was left by Gu Tianya to teach, if everyone answered that they should respect Gu Tianya, but the child's relatives all died under Gu Tianya's order.
Everyone pondered for a long time, and finally the eldest grandson Wuji was responsible for answering, and said slowly: "There are two sides to the matter, and they have to be separated, first of all, we have to know why your master killed your relatives......
The child smiled innocently, looked at him as if he was very curious, and said, "You should know, my relatives have committed the crime of cannibalism." When we left our hometown and were driven all the way to Hebei Province, our relatives couldn't stand the hunger, so we exchanged children for food. ”
This is extremely innocent, like a child talking about an ordinary past, but everyone present has a numb scalp, and everyone knows that this is the most heart-wrenching pass.
Cannibalism!
Mobs eat people.
Everyone remembered that Gu Tianya had cried twice, and the second of them was because he killed some mobs.
And where did the mob come from?
Everyone knew it was their sin.
But seeing the child holding the skull in both hands, he didn't seem to wait for everyone to give him an answer, and suddenly he raised the skull to everyone again, and asked: "This is my mother's head, she was cooked and eaten by my uncle, but although the uncles ate my mother, they still wanted to spare my life at the last moment." So I also want to ask you whether my cannibalistic uncles are good or bad......"
This is a question that the crowd feels unable to answer.
This third level should be the end of Gu Tianya's conscience, but no one can bear the end of this conscience.
They couldn't stand the child's eyes as pure as water.
Someone looked up at the big monument in front of the mound, and looked at the line of big characters written on it, under the moonlight, it was clear: "Gu Tianya cried and beheaded the mob on this monument." ”
Everyone spoke bitterly, looked at each other, and said in a difficult tone: "At the beginning, he beheaded the mob here, but tonight he asked his heart here, this is not a conscience at all, this is to kill us here." ”
It is not to kill them, but to kill their hearts.
Murder and punishment of the heart, only those who survive can go.
