Chapter 167: A Mountain, a River, and a Journey
Peacock Feather.
Such a scene, Su Xiaoqi
It's all too familiar, this is a beautiful scene that can only be seen when the peacock feather is activated.
But many times, what appears with beauty is often accompanied by death, especially the peacock feather, a divine weapon, once opened, it will doom someone to die, because under that beautiful light, no one can escape.
Today, however, there is an exception.
The swarthy boy who seems to be just in his early stages escaped from heaven under the peacock feather, which may be the first time that the peacock feather has reappeared after thousands of years.
He seemed to have been aware of the horror of this Peacock Feather for a long time, so at the moment when the Peacock Feather was just activated, he quickly withdrew from this alley, although he was still injured and fled in embarrassment, but at least he saved his life.
For this guy to escape, although Su Xiaoqi was seriously injured, he was full of shock, and the little sparrow didn't seem to care about this, and fell beside Su Xiaoqi at once, and asked worriedly: "Master, are you okay?"
Su Xiaoqi shook his head, looked at the peacock feather that had been put away in the little sparrow's hand, frowned slightly, wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said, "Don't take it out again in the future." β
The little sparrow was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Su Xiaoqi had said before that he couldn't take out the peacock feather in front of others, so he hurriedly put the peacock feather away, and his head was like a chicken pecking rice, "I was in a hurry and forgot the master's instructions." β
Su Xiaoqi was stunned, and said heavily: "It's not that I really don't let you use it, it's just that this thing is easy to cause trouble, some enemies, if you can avoid it, of course, when it is really a last resort, you should use it." β
The little sparrow tilted his head and asked, "What is the last resort?"
"It's like when the enemy is too strong and threatens your life. β
The little sparrow nodded, and then asked, "What if someone endangers your master?"
Su Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Of course it can also be used." β
He reached out and patted the little sparrow's head, "It's not just me, Bai Qing, Fang Xinrui, and Huang Cheng are the same." β
Little Sparrow nodded, "I made a note of it." β
One big and one small, just walked out of the alley, along the street, and walked back slowly.
On a hill to the west of the town, a swarthy young man with a spear in his hand, covered in blood, still has lingering palpitations until this moment.
After he stopped, he glanced back at the town in the night, and saw that there was no movement, so he sat on the ground, escaped from a jade bottle in his arms, poured out a large handful of pills, swallowed them, and then muttered to himself.
"It's not good to be out of the school, as soon as I went out to fight for the first time, I bumped into the peacock feather that the master reminded me repeatedly, but fortunately, the running ability that the master has practiced since childhood has not been lost. β
"It's so dangerous, it seems that if you want to become famous, you can only find someone else. β
"Master, what do you say you have to drive me down the mountain, how dangerous it is down the mountain. β
β......β
He just sat on the hill and talked to himself about a lot, nonsense, nonsense.
After he finished reading it in pieces, he looked at the town and exclaimed: "Oh, I forgot to tell this seventh prince my name, and there are also rules for walking the rivers and lakes, I Liang Ping kills people, only once, so this seventh prince is afraid that he will guard against me like a thief in the future, hey, it's not easy to walk the rivers and lakes......"
As he spoke, he began to think about it again.
When Su Xiaoqi returned to the house, Bai Qing and the others were still waiting for him in the house, their faces were full of anxiety, and after Su Xiaoqi said that he was fine, he asked everyone to go back to rest, and he walked into the house and began to breathe.
In this battle, Su Xiaoqi was really injured, but fortunately, the realm was not affected, and it was said that it was only three things, if he fell back to the Zhaoshen realm, Su Xiaoqi would probably not be depressed.
Early the next morning, Su Xiaoqi took everyone to leave directly, and did not mention a word to the old man about what happened last night, and Su Xiaoqi didn't pay much attention to last night's battle, more than thinking about what the man in black said.
It's about good and evil, about good and bad.
The man in black came to take revenge thirty years later because he was persecuted by the people of the town, which seemed reasonable and not wrong, but Su Xiaoqi just felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
In that alley, Su Xiaoqi could actually make a knife faster, and it was impossible for him to be unaware of the swarthy boy, precisely because of the influence of this.
Facing the man in black, Su Xiaoqi used the sentence "Do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself", which is actually very far-fetched.
After everyone left the town, they continued to go north, and at noon, they stopped on a mountain road and buried the pot to make rice, Fang Xinrui hesitated for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage, walked to Su Xiaoqi's side, and asked, "Master, was that person last night, really a bad person?"
Su Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, stopped what he was doing, then reached out to brush off the snow on a stone, sat down, and asked Fang Xinrui to sit down as well.
He thought about it very seriously, and then sorted out what the man in black said last night before he spoke: "Whether it's good or bad, Master can't give you a clear answer for a while, but we can discuss it together." β
Fang Xinrui was stunned, and then nodded.
After Kang Wenshuang, who was holding dry firewood, heard this, he stopped and stood quietly in place, waiting for Su Xiaoqi's next words.
She felt that Su Xiaoqi was really different from many people, and the first time she saw the master give the disciple the first lesson, she asked the disciple to learn to question herself first, and now that the disciple raised a question, she was able to say so frankly that she didn't know, and she could discuss it with the disciple, such a person, whether there was her in other places Kang Wenshuang didn't know, but in Dixuanmen, she had never seen it.
Those elder immortal masters have always been high, and they will always be all the truths in the world, so that the younger generations cannot question or dare to question.
After thinking about it carefully, Su Xiaoqi said: "Let's talk about the incident thirty years ago, their mother and son were persecuted, even if they were not good people at that time, they would never be bad people, this is certain. β
Fang Xinrui nodded, he had some thoughts, but because of his personality, he didn't say it, and continued to wait for the master to speak.
Su Xiaoqi continued: "If a child survives in such a situation, he must have resentment, and the reason why he has been able to live alone until now and become a cultivator is probably supported by hatred. β
Fang Xinrui nodded thoughtfully, but still did not express his opinion.
Su Xiaoqi continued: "We don't know what happened thirty years ago, whether it was true or not, it's just his one-sided words, and we still believe that what he said is true." Then let's talk about what he is doing now, a child with hatred, after a lot of hardships, finally became a strong man who can decide the life and death of others, looking forward to thirty years of revenge, and he is about to get revenge, but when he comes back, he finds that the original enemy, walking, dying, seeing that thirty years of hard work and dedication have been in vain, in this case, there will naturally be some radical thoughts, so he will vent the hatred in his heart to the person who was related to him. β
Speaking of this, Su Xiaoqi paused and looked at Fang Xinrui.
Fang Xinrui was looked at by his own master, and was shocked, and nodded hurriedly.
Su Xiaoqi smiled and asked, "If it were you, what choice would you make?"
Fang Xinrui sighed, thought about it seriously for a long time, and shook his head weakly: "I don't know." β
It seemed that the master would not be satisfied with this answer, and hurriedly said, "Disciple......
Su Xiaoqi was not dissatisfied with Fang Xinrui's answer, and said with a smile: "Yes, if you haven't experienced something like him, it's difficult for anyone to put themselves in their shoes, so we can't say that he must be wrong." β
Fang Xinrui frowned.
Su Xiaoqi seemed to know the incomprehension in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's not wrong, but it doesn't mean that it's right, put aside him, let's talk about the other people in the town, those who died in his hands, what did these people do wrong, they just watched coldly at the beginning, and they didn't lend help and only accepted, it was wrong?"
Fang Xinrui suddenly said: "Of course not. β
Su Xiaoqi nodded, "Since these people are right, they died in his hands, but they have to pay the price for what happened at the beginning, there is no such reason in the world." β
Fang Xinrui nodded and said, "Disciple understands. β
Su Xiaoqi smiled and asked, "What do you understand?"
Fang Xinrui was stunned for a moment, obviously he seemed to have understood, but he couldn't speak, and couldn't help blushing a little.
Su Xiaoqi smiled and said, "I know you understand, but you can't say it yet, because Master is actually the same as you." β
Fang Xinrui scratched his head and smiled.
Su Xiaoqi continued: "You must know that there are no inherently wicked people in this world, and there are no inherently good people, and the main factor that determines whether people become good or bad people is not the bad environment they are in, but what they think in their hearts, once a person has evil thoughts, it is easy to be affected by the environment and manipulated by fate, on the contrary, if a person has always had good thoughts, no matter how bad the environment he is in, no matter how bad the world is, they can also stick to their hearts." β
Su Xiaoqi stood up and said slowly: "The reason why wicked people exist, in the final analysis, is because they have been persecuted by wicked people, thinking about it, this world is indeed not too good, but the quality of the world has nothing to do with whether you become a good person or a bad person." β
Su Xiaoqi pointed to his feet, "Life is actually just like walking, a mountain, a river and a journey, no matter how far you go, only by sticking to your heart can you not forget your original intention, and so is your practice." β
Fang Xinrui also stood up and bowed to Su Xiaoqi.
This pair of masters and apprentices is not like a cultivator, but more like a Confucian protΓ©gΓ© who came out of a certain academy.
Kang Wenshuang looked at the master and apprentice, stunned.
The people had lunch and continued their journey north, all the way without incident.
At the end of winter, the group finally passed through the land of Yanyun and entered the realm collectively known as the Nine Prefectures of the Divine Capital, the so-called Nine Mansions of the Divine Capital, which refers to actually nine cities, among these nine cities, there is a mansion of the famous empire, and it is rumored that the geographical location of none of the mansions corresponds to the respective locations of the Kyushu continent, so there is another saying that the Nine Mansions of the Divine Capital is a reduced continental territory.
The nine cities are Huangcheng Shendu, Beihan City, Baoyin City, Chuyang City, Xiangxi City, Picklamp City, Jinwu City, Shuntian City, Longshan City, among which Xiangxi City is also called Yangguan City.
The nine mansions corresponding to the nine cities are the Emperor's Tower, most of which are called the Xue Palace, the Zhenbei Building, the Baoyin Mansion, the Northwest Building, the Tianlantern Mansion, the Shenque Building, the Shuntian Mansion, and the Longshan Building.
And the location where Su Xiaoqi and the others are now is one of the affiliated cities of Longshan City, and if you want to see Longshan Tower, you have to walk northeast for about five days.
After entering the realm of the Nine Prefectures of the Divine Capital, it is equivalent to the capital of the Li Empire is not far away, and according to the current distance of everyone, they should be able to reach the Divine Capital in early spring.
And after entering the Nine Mansions of the Divine Capital, what I heard the most was about the opening of the Spring Ceremony of the Divine Capital Academy, which I had actually heard about when Yan Yun was a time, but I didn't expect that after entering the realm of the Nine Mansions of the Divine Capital, this matter would become a hot topic that people should talk about after dinner.
In fact, not only the Shendu Mansion, but also the opening of the Spring Festival of the School Palace, it is a rare event for the entire Chinese Empire.
The empire has always been based on cultivation, so for scholars, such a grand event is naturally more worth cherishing, because this is one of the few things that scholars can be proud of.
In fact, when he was in Yanyun Sanjin, Su Xiaoqi was like inviting Guo Baoyi to go to Shendu together to participate in the grand event of readers that only comes once in five years, but after thinking about it, Guo Baoyi couldn't have known about this grand event of readers, since he didn't mention it, maybe there was something unknown and hidden in it, so there was no need for him to say anything.
Kang Wenshuang asked as he walked forward: "I heard that there is an ancient evil dragon suppressed under the Longshan Tower, I don't know if it's true?"
Su Xiaoqi turned around and said, "Miss Kang, is this asking me?"
Kang Wenshuang said coldly: "Could it be that besides you, there is anyone else here who knows?"
Su Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Miss Kang, this is the right person, because I don't know either." β
Kang Wenshuang's eyes were cold, and he could kill people.
Bai Qing rolled her eyes, just like the master, I am afraid that the dreams of many masters in the future will not come true.
Fang Xinrui and Huang Cheng looked at each other and smiled, but the little sparrow said: "This is true, I and the owner have seen that little loach with our own eyes, it looks very cute, but after so many years, I don't know if it's still there." β
Su Xiaoqi looked at the little sparrow and asked, "Is there really one?"
The little sparrow nodded, "Although you have forgotten it, the little sparrow still remembers it very clearly, the person who suppressed it at the beginning was originally going to kill it directly, and it was the master who passed by and saved it, and then it was suppressed under Longshan Tower, and Longshan Tower came from this." β
Bai Qing is a master who likes to join in the fun, and said, "Master, why don't we go and have a look?" β
Su Xiaoqi looked at the others, whether it was Huang Cheng, Fang Xinrui, or even Kang Wenshuang, everyone looked at Su Xiaoqi with expectation.
Su Xiaoqi said: "Then go and see?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
