Chapter 166 • Responsibility
The cage of sword qi gradually trapped Zhang Xue'er inside, and as it shrank, she could already feel the majestic power of these sword qi, if they slashed at herself, Zhang Xue'er had no doubt that she would be immediately cut into pieces by these sword qi.
"Childe is slow, can you listen to me, after listening, if Childe still insists on killing me, I will immediately cut myself off, no need for Childe to do anything." Zhang Xue'er's urgent voice sounded, shouting towards the void in front of her, because she knew that if it was a little later, even if the other party intended to spare her life, there would be no chance.
Seeing that the countless sword qi was still coldly slashing towards her, a trace of reluctance and sadness flashed in Zhang Xue'er's eyes, and she closed her eyes helplessly, waiting for the moment when the sword qi came.
However, after waiting for a long time, she didn't feel the sword qi cutting through her body, Zhang Xue'er opened her eyes blankly, and the cold and powerful sword qi around her was gone, replaced by the young man, standing in front of him with a light face, still holding the beautiful purple long sword in his hand, but exuding a powerful extremely martial aura, but compared to before, the murderous aura surging on it was much less.
"Whew..." Zhang Xue'er breathed a sigh of relief, there was a feeling of the rest of her life after the catastrophe, in order to show that she had no intention of doing it again, she took the lead in putting away the silver dragon spear in her hand, and the silver armor around her body also took away the dazzling glow, and returned to the same as before.
"Thank you for the grace of the son not to kill, the son cultivated in order to win, and the slave family admitted defeat." Zhang Xue'er hugged her fists and thanked her, until now, she is still Zhang Xue'er's outfit in the story, which makes Jinhong quite curious, he really can't understand what kind of origin this "person" in front of him is, and he has such a magical ability to make the illusory story the same as the real world.
Jin Hong also put away the long sword in his hand, and faded away the extremely martial aura surging all over his body, just such a move, the coercion that had been suppressing Zhang Xue'er, dissipated instantly with his movements, which can be regarded as Jinhong expressing his sincerity.
"So, you can remove these illusory things." Jin Hong glanced at the surrounding scene and spoke.
However, Zhang Xue'er did not respond, but asked very apologetically: "Childe, please forgive me, this illusion cannot be withdrawn now, if it is withdrawn, then the slave family will no longer be able to talk directly with Childe like this." ”
"Oh?" Jin Hong looked at the other party suspiciously, a look of vigilance in his eyes flashed unabashedly, Zhang Xue'er obviously saw the other party's reaction, and hurriedly explained: "Son's forgiveness, and please listen to the slave's explanation." ”
Jinhong didn't answer, just stared at the other party, meaning "I'm waiting for your explanation".
Zhang Xue'er breathed a sigh of relief again, then spoke, slowly starting from her own origin, and said without reservation: "As Gongzi said, the slave family does not belong to this world, I and a few partners under the bewitchment of a black shadow, taking advantage of the soul of this world to hit the gate of heaven, causing the gate of heaven to fluctuate violently, forcibly passed through, but through the gate of heaven, although it is only a few words to say, but to do, it is very dangerous, a few of our friends, and finally succeeded in passing through, only two, The others either missed the opportunity, or the time was not grasped well, and was cut in half by the Heavenly Gate along with the soul. ”
Saying that, Zhang Xue'er paused, glanced at Jinhong, seemed to be waiting for the other party to digest what she said before, and after knowing that the other party nodded, she continued: "I was also cut and destroyed by Tianmen when I was passing through the Heavenly Gate, but fortunately, I was compared at the beginning."
More decisively, the soul is separated from the body, which avoids the end of the soul being scattered, but after that, I actually did not have a good life, the soul without the body, in fact, just like the snail without a shell in this world, there is a possibility of dissipation anytime and anywhere, until I met my father, that is, the old man you saw in the temple. ”
"So, he invited me to watch a shadow puppet show and pulled me into your illusion, and you taught him that?" Jin Hong asked casually, and suddenly there was a fear in his heart, he was enthusiastic about the old man before, but he was not the slightest bit guarded.
Zhang Xue'er shook her head vigorously, "Childe, don't blame Daddy, in fact, Daddy doesn't know about my existence, so let alone me asking him to design to harm you, he plays shadow puppets for you, completely out of his love for shadow puppetry, and his hospitable character." ”
"He doesn't know you exist?" Jin Hong looked at each other with some surprise, this is called someone else's father, and others don't know that she is a daughter.
Zhang Xue'er nodded again, "That's true, because I'm afraid that I will scare him by appearing in front of him so suddenly, after all, there are few people in this world who know about our kind of existence like you, and I only occasionally wait for him to appear by his side when he is asleep, so that he thinks that he is in a dream and sees his daughter who died early." ”
"No wonder the old man cherishes his shadow puppet so much." Jin Hong couldn't help but mutter.
Zhang Xue'er obviously heard Jinhong's words, a little shy, and said with a happy look: "That's it, his love for his daughter is from the bottom of his heart, if there is anything in this world that is most worthy of my nostalgia, it is probably my father's feelings, so seeing that my father is usually lonely, I also want him to live happily." ”
"In the Hidden Cloud Snow Region, aren't there any such feelings or the like?" Jin Hong was a little curious.
And the other party's answer is also very straightforward, "No, that world, although there are also fathers and mothers, but it is only an explanation of their own lineage, basically after we are born, they no longer take care of it, life and death depend on the destiny of heaven, that place, some are just ruthless and ruthless the weak and the strong." ”
Jin Hong knew in his heart, no wonder there would be the existence of such a perverted realm as Da Wutian hidden in the snow region, completely abandoning the seven emotions and six desires, it seemed to be a rather cruel thing in this world, but in the hidden cloud and snow region, it was not a big deal.
Thinking of this, Jin Hong suddenly realized, could it be that the reason why there are shackles of heaven and earth in this world is because of the existence of these feelings? As the inheritor of the way of benevolence, what does it mean that he can ignore the restrictions of the shackles of heaven and earth? Thinking of this, Jin Hong's heart suddenly became a little scared, because if one day, when he treats all the people he has cared about with a cold and resolute attitude, what kind of misery and despair will be in their hearts, Yan Changfeng, Li Siniang, or Li Yu.
Shaking his head, Jin Hong put aside such thoughts for a while, and after pondering for a long time, he looked at Zhang Xue'er's eyes and said, "I don't know if it's right to leave you, but I know that it is definitely not right to forcibly tear off this life-dependent bond between you and your father." ”
When Zhang Xueer heard Jinhong say this, she instantly felt happy in her heart, although she was still a female general, she knelt on her knees like a little daughter's family, and thanked Jinhong for her great kindness.
Jin Hong smiled a little embarrassedly, and quickly let the other party stand up, after all, he really didn't give any favors to say goodbye
People feel ashamed of receiving such a great gift from others, but he still said with a straight face on the surface: "Although I let you go, it doesn't mean that I will condone you in the future, if you have any misdeeds in the future, I will never spare you." ”
Zhang Xue'er nodded and said to herself: "Originally, I didn't do anything hurtful, it was nothing more than when my father performed a shadow puppet show for the officials, I used the illusion to fool them into giving my father a few more copper plates." ”
"In that case, I won't say more, let's say, where is it hidden?" Jin Hong's voice became a little serious, after all, hundreds of thousands of silver, it was gone overnight, and it happened under his nose, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face.
"Huh? What's where? Zhang Xue'er asked a little puzzled.
Jin Hong hated the other party, the latter was like a frightened rabbit, shrunk back a few steps, seeing this Jin Hong felt a burst of amusement in his heart, it seems that whether it is a woman in this world, or a female creature in other worlds, as long as it is a female, selling cute and pitiful is just like their racial talent, there is no no.
"Silver! Don't tell me, you have already handed over the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to your father to spend it. "If it's this kind of nonsense, I don't think the ghosts will believe it.
"Oh, no, no, it's all there, I don't know why, I can't use it now." Zhang Xueer hurriedly responded.
Now this is in chaos, those things are in the hands of ordinary people, they are not as good as two nests, and it is strange to use them, and only when they live in a peaceful society, these things will seem more important than life.
"Where?" Jin Hong asked.
"Just under the Buddha statue, my partner also wanted to get these things, but I did it first, in order to hide the silver and my breath, I lied to my father in a dream that his daughter had been guided by the Buddha in the temple and had gone to the Western Bliss, and asked him to wipe the Buddha statues one by one with artemisia grass to repay the kindness of the Buddha master." Zhang Xue'er said a little proudly, obviously she thought that this hand was a sign of extreme wit.
When Jin Hong heard this, his focus was obviously not the same as Zhang Xue'er's, what he wanted to know more was who the so-called companion in Zhang Xue'er's mouth was? Over there?
"Put the money here first, and you must return it to its original place by noon in three days' time." Now through Zhang Xueer, Jinhong knows that there is more than one family that covets this batch of silver taels, so for the sake of safety, he has no plans to move the silver taels back for the time being.
Seeing Zhang Xue'er nodding, Jin Hong asked the question he was more concerned about: "Is that partner of yours still in contact now?" Do you know where he is? ”
When Zhang Xue'er heard this, how could she not understand the meaning of Jinhong's words, and suddenly became a little embarrassed, not that she didn't want to be a second or fifth boy, but she felt that Jinhong was actually a good person, and she didn't want him to take risks, after all, those guys were different from her, they were all murderous and bloodthirsty demons.
"If the son can trust the slave family, then listen to the slave family's persuasion, although the son cultivates to get it, but after all, there are five of them, and the two fists are hard to beat the four hands, especially the guy among them who calls himself the emperor demon, his cultivation is slightly better than the son, if you can not provoke, it is best not to provoke." Zhang Xue'er persuaded Jin Hong with a solemn expression.
On the contrary, Jin Hong smiled indifferently, and said a little righteously: "Although I, the guardian, am a little weaker, sometimes I can't retreat because of my own ability. ”
