Chapter 049: Gong Ling
Gu Yunying looked at Tan Yue in surprise: "You told me the inside story of the backstage of the Sword Sect so quickly, didn't you consider that a pure person like me would have doubts about the basic moral bottom line within the Sword Sect?" ”
To her question, Tan Yue replied very seriously: "I think you are the one who refreshes the bottom line of the Sword Sect's morality. ”
Gu Yunying: "...... You may be a little mistaken about me. ”
Tan Yue squinted at her and snorted coldly.
"No, I got the point wrong," Gu Yunying reacted at this time, "How did you kidnap the son of Taishang Sect?" ”
Qingyu is a real person, that is the sword cultivator figure second only to Shen Yipi today, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an iconic figure of Taishangzong.
Shen Yipi and Qingyu Zhenren can be called the combination of two swords in the sword cultivation world, which shows the iron of their relationship.
But the problem is that no matter how good the relationship is, there is no reason to dig up a friend's son to his own sect, shouldn't that father be in a hurry?
"It wasn't us who dug it up, it was Qingyu Zhenren who personally sent Gong Ling over." mentioned this incident, which was quite sensational back then, Tan Yue also felt very incomprehensible.
Recalling that time, he was just a young disciple who had just entered the sect, and in addition to practicing and meditating every day, he was holding a dust whisk in his hand, responsible for cleaning and sweeping the statues and tablets in the Tai'a Peak Palace.
Although he never understood, there was obviously a regular dust removal formation prohibition in the hall, why did he have to let his disciples clean it?
But he still cleaned up very honestly.
On that day, he was cleaning the statue of the Sanqing saint in the main hall of Tai'a Peak, and he was standing behind the statue of the saint.
At this moment, the head of the door walked out, stood outside the hall gate, and waited for Shen Shouzuo and Qingyu Zhenren, who had heavy faces, thinking that it was a secret conversation between the bigwigs, Tan Yue thought about leaving quietly.
When he left from the side hall path, he couldn't help his curiosity, and turned his head slightly, but he saw Gong Ling on the side of Qingyu Zhenren.
At that time, he didn't know Gong Ling's identity, but he felt that the young man standing beside Qingyu Zhenren was like a Zhilan jade tree, his eyebrows and eyes were like the gentle and elegant Yuandai Mountains, and in front of the three sword cultivators who could make the sword cultivation world tremble by stomping their feet, they were still like bamboos, neither humble nor arrogant, with a polite and detached smile on the corner of their mouths, as if they didn't care about anything.
The young man's afterglow swept over, and he also saw Tan Yue, but he smiled indifferently and didn't say anything.
It was at that glance that Tan Yue remembered this young man.
As he was leaving, he intermittently overheard the conversation behind him: "...... Suffering from a serious illness...... Time is running out...... Lingnan ......"
It turned out to be a short-lived one.
Tan Yue thought silently, and when he stepped out of the side hall, he left this matter behind.
The life, death, sorrows and joys of the world are as ephemeral as a moment.
"I thought you'd look at it for ten thousand years." Listening to Tan Yue's narration, Gu Yunying couldn't help but complain.
Tan Yue was annoyed and angry, and said impatiently: "Do you still want to listen to me?" Shut your mouth up if you want to! ”
Gu Yunying swiped her hand lightly on the side of her mouth, indicating that she would not interject again.
Tan Yue took a moment to calm down his emotions, and then continued: "I was just a little disciple sweeping the floor and dusting at that time, and I didn't know anything about the situation at all, but I only knew that it didn't take long for Shen Shouzao, Qingyu Zhenren and Gong Ling to go to Lingnan, it seems that there is a way to treat Gong Ling's stubborn illness in Lingnan. ”
Later, after a period of time, Shen Shouzuo came back, and brought back a Taoist cultivator who was covered in injuries, and it took a lot of effort to pull people back from the door of death, Shen Shouzuo wanted to accept that Taoist cultivator as his second apprentice, but the head did not agree, and he didn't know what Shen Shouzuo promised to the master, which made the head relieved...... That's right, the rescued Dao cultivator is your second senior brother's temporary cultivation. ”
Gu Yunying supported her chin with one hand, her index finger rubbed involuntarily, but she began to think about what secrets there were in this second senior brother, which made the head of the Sword Sect feel dissatisfied?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Tan Yue continued with satisfaction: "Maybe it's because of what happened in Lingnan, Gong Ling often came to visit Linxiu, and the two of them became close friends who talked about everything, their talents were also outstanding, and their qualifications were equal, we all began to speculate whether they would become the next generation of Shen Shouzuo and Qingyu Zhenren, until less than a hundred years later, Gong Ling fell ill and ......."
Speaking of this, Tan Yue's speed of speech slowed down, and there was a thoughtful look on his face, as if he himself was also considering: "Gong Ling seemed to have lost his mind and gone crazy, and suddenly began to kill demon cultivators outside, and the weight of his killing was so heavy that it was said that the blood on the sword had never dried up, and when he killed, he killed the red eye, and he killed every person, and those who were traitors and criminals, and those who were unlucky and innocent, all died under his sword, and for a while, people were panicked, and everyone could only avoid him, for fear that one would not be met by him." ”
"In the end, it was Qingyu Zhenren who killed his relatives righteously, and he personally discounted Gong Ling's hands and feet, threw him into the Sword Sect, and asked Han Xiaofeng to lock him up in case he went out to hurt people again, this is closed, Gong Ling's sanity gradually began to sober up, but his temperament changed greatly, and he became like this, and he didn't leave the Sword Sect, and refused to return to the Taishang Sect, so the head simply let him join Hanxiao Peak."
"That's all I know." Tan Yue shook his head as he spoke, and sighed deeply.
Finally waiting for Tan Yue to finish speaking, Gu Yunying hurriedly asked, "Then Qingyu Zhenren is really willing to leave his son in the Sword Sect?" Didn't the Taishang Sect come to trouble the Sword Sect? ”
"Taishangzong has been here once, but before the head of the sect has come forward, he was beaten half to death by Gong Ling and carried back by the Sword Sect."
Gu Yunying nodded in understanding and continued to ask, "Then what kind of enmity does he have with Linxiu?" ”
"I don't know, the two of them suddenly fought, and they almost died together, and then we were all guessing what happened between them," as if remembering something very interesting, Tan Yue's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Gu Yunying, "Do you know what the guess is that is ranked number one now?" ”
Gu Yunying pondered for two seconds and said: "Lin Xiu is a negative man, cheating people about money and sex, Gong Ling is infatuated, but he was scum, Gong Ling hated because of love, and was determined to take revenge." ”
"How did you guess?!"
Tan Yue stared at Gu Yunying, who said that the score was not bad, with a frightened look.
Gu Yunying recalled the look in Xia Gong Ling's eyes when he talked about the second senior brother, and said, "I smell the breath of love and hate from it. ”
Tan Yue: "......"
"Forget it, it's not too early, I should go back." Gu Yunying didn't bother to explain to him, stood up and patted the ashes on his body, "I'm almost rested, you can slowly recuperate." ”
Tan Yue hesitated, covered the wound on his chest, and waved his other hand at her, telling her to hurry up.
Gu Yunying was not injured, sat on the ground and chatted with Tan Yue for a while, then regained his strength, and walked out of the huge side hall in the dazzling midday sun.
Except for the traces left by the opening of the temple door, the outside is quiet and empty, and it seems to be a completely different world from the bloody darkness inside.
"You're finally out, are you alright?" A voice of joy sounded beside him.
Gu Yunying lowered her head slightly, and saw Cheng Jiang hiding under the steps, he had more injuries on his body than hers, but he was waving at her, with a smirk on his face.
However, she didn't think this person was really stupid.
"Let's wait a long time, let's go back together." Gu Yunying said with a smile.
Cheng Jiang looked at her in a daze, smiling with crooked eyebrows, the fine sunlight fell on her eyes, like countless stars twinkling, and her delicate face was stained with dried blood stains, but it was not hideous, but it was just like the peony of the Allure City that was dewed after the rain.
When he saw Gu Yunying for the first time, he had also sighed that this female cultivator's appearance was exquisite, but she had never been so stunning as she was today.
"You...... Is it really okay? Cheng Jiang asked uneasily, and approached her with a little caution by the way.
Gu Yunying spread his hands: "I'm not injured, the matter has been resolved, hurry back, don't worry about entering the Sword Sect, I will cover you in the future, you are my horse...... Ahem, same door, ahahaha. ”
Cheng Jiang: "......"
What a fool I was to be amazed by this woman just now.
[Gain Cheng Jiang's aggro +50.] 】
At the foot of Tai'a Peak, there was a group of scattered cultivators who had fled in the wilderness, and they were all anxiously waiting at the entrance and exit of Tai'a Peak, looking anxious and eager to leave this ghost place.
It is even more inevitable that there will be some resentment and contempt for the Sword Sect in my heart.
The dignified Sword Sect is one of the Seven Heavenly Sects, but it is mixed into it by a monk with a demon seed, which is a shame in any sect, and it will destroy the foundation of the sect.
In addition, they were also afraid of being killed by the Sword Sect.
Originally, there were people among them who could fly with a sword, but Tai'a Peak was the main peak of the Sword Sect, and it had the prohibition of forbidden air, and as soon as it flew up, it was struck by lightning, which was more terrifying than the tribulation.
In desperation, they had no choice but to find the white crane that could fly freely between the Sword Sect, but they looked around and could only look at each other.
What about the white crane? Where has the white crane gone!
I didn't see a single white crane feather?!
Sure enough, the Sword Sect wants to lock them up and kill people!
At the thought of this possibility, everyone began to tremble, and even gave birth to a tragic feeling that my life was at stake.
Only Liu Cheng stood in the middle of the crowd with a blank expression, and asked Jiang Fangyu, who was also decadent beside him, "Why are you so sure that the Sword Sect will kill us?" ”
Jiang Fangyu sighed deeply: "If this matter spreads, the position of the Sword Sect can't be kept." ”
"But hasn't the position of the Sword Sect been shaky, and I haven't seen them raise their swords to cut others." Liu Cheng whispered.
Jiang Fangyu was amused by these words, and then remembered that he was a loose cultivator with no ability, but Liu Cheng was completely different from himself, and he couldn't help but regret it: "If I knew this, I wouldn't have dragged you here to see the trial of the Sword Sect, it's nothing if I died, but you are not even fifteen, and there are still many scenery that you haven't seen...... It's me who has caused you. ”
Liu Cheng shook his head calmly: "Brother Yu, you are too worried, if the Sword Sect really wants to deal with us, the sword cultivators on this mountain can wipe us out immediately, but we escaped all the way, did you see other Sword Sect monks stopping me?" This shows that the Sword Sect doesn't care about us at all. ”
Jiang Fangyu's heart trembled when he heard this, they didn't seem to have seen a Sword Sect monk from Tai'a Feng along the way?
"Eh, what are you all doing here?"
A familiar female voice came down the stairs.
Everyone raised their heads one after another and looked at Gu Yunying and Cheng Jiang who were walking slowly with resentful eyes.
