Chapter 124: Xiao Lian's decision

When Fang Wuwei and his party met the two brothers who were looking for the Congxin Sect, a major incident occurred in Jinzhen, the town closest to the Congxin Sect of a Saint Immortal Mountain.

A day ago, the cultivators of the Congxin Sect suddenly appeared at the west gate of the Barbarian Golden Town covered in blood, as if they had experienced a great battle, and asked the people in the town for help.

The reputation of the Congxin faction has always been very good in the wilderness continent, so the people of Jinzhen naturally took care of the cultivators of the Congxin faction in every way, and directly vacated a good inn for the cultivators of the Congxin faction to recuperate.

Although the people in Jin Zhen were silent about this matter on the surface, they were still talking about it secretly, speculating about what had happened to the Congxin Sect and whether the situation in the Savage Continent was about to change dramatically.

Golden Town Inn.

"Master! The apprentice petitions to return to the mountain gate! Even if you die, the disciples will also die on the top of the One Holy Peak of the Congxin Sect! ”

Shen Chen's left arm was wrapped around a circle of white gauze, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed vigorously to Xiao Lian, who was sitting on top of the house.

"Master! The disciples petition to return to the mountain gate! ”

As soon as Shen Chen finished kowtowing to Xiao Lian, dozens of disciples of the Congxin Sect who were kneeling behind Shen Chen also kowtowed together and shouted loudly. Every disciple here was covered in gauze, and some even had an arm missing, and blood was faintly oozing from the white gauze.

On the night when the Congxin Sect was stained red with blood, every disciple of the Congxin Sect tried their best and resisted stubbornly. However, the monster's ability not to be afraid of true qi was too powerful, and in the end, the disciples of the Congxin Sect were killed by the monster for nearly eighty percent, leaving only more than thirty people. At the last moment, Xiao Lian, the master of the Congxin Sect, made the decision to abandon the mountain gate and escaped from the First Holy Peak with the only remaining thirty people. Like a lost dog, he ran into the mountains and forests to avoid monsters, and finally crossed the mountains and forests to the golden town.

Xiao Lian was covered with white gauze, sat on the main seat of the house with a stunned expression, sighed slightly, and said tiredly:

"We'll talk about that later. Shen Chen. How is Ah Cheng's body? ”

Shen Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned, raised his head and looked at Xiao Lian, unable to understand why the master, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, was unwilling to return to Yisheng Peak. However, Shen Chen still gritted his teeth and replied on his knees:

"Master, Ah Cheng is fine. Listening to Elder Yun, Ah Cheng only needs to rest for half a month before he can go to the ground. ”

Xiao Lian nodded, sighed slightly, and kept thinking of the picture of the master being dragged away from the Congxin faction that night.

That night. He was surrounded by monsters and suffered many injuries. When he waited for his master Fang Wuwei to make a move, his master was slapped away by the monster's tail, and then he was dragged away from the Congxin faction by the other two immortals and disappeared.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lian lowered his head gloomily and muttered sadly:

"Why...... Master doesn't save the Congxin faction......"

Shen Chen, who was kneeling in the house, saw Xiao Lian's expression lonely again, and couldn't help but shout in a low voice:

"Master......"

Hearing Shen Chen's words. Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was in the house. There were so many disciples watching him down there.

Immediately, Xiao Lian sighed again, waved his hand to the disciples kneeling below, and said:

"Go and rest first...... Let the teacher be quiet. ”

Shen Chen's expression changed as he looked at Xiao Lian, who was sitting in the main seat of the house, then clenched his fists, suddenly kowtowed, and shouted loudly:

"Master! Think again! The disciples all want to return to the mountain gate just like the disciples! The disciple had already sworn that he was born from the heart. Death is a ghost from the heart! I beg you, Master, to fulfill your wishes! ”

As soon as Shen Chen shouted this, the thirty or so disciples of the Congxin Sect kneeling behind him also kowtowed, and shouted in unison:

"Master! Please fulfill the wishes of the disciples! The disciples are willing to live and die with the mountain gate! ”

Xiao Lian looked at the disciples of the Congxin Sect below, and his heart was entangled. The reason why he made the decision to retreat that night was to preserve the fire of the Congxin faction. Now these are the heartfelt hopes for the future. But one by one, they will go back and die. Xiao Lian only felt as if his heart had been cut by a knife, and he was extremely uncomfortable.

"The teacher said that I just talked about it, and I will talk about this later, so go back and rest."

Xiao Lian still shook his head and said slowly.

The entanglement and anguish filled Xiao Lian's heart at the moment, as well as the distress of the other party Wu Wei leaving the Congxin faction, which made Xiao Lian question the decision he made, and also question whether what he did was really right.

"Master! If you don't agree, you won't get up! ”

When Shen Chen heard Xiao Lian's words, he gritted his teeth fiercely, knocked his head hard, blood overflowed on his forehead, and shouted loudly.

Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen Chen, who was kneeling on the ground and his forehead was bleeding. In Xiao Lian's impression, Shen Chen would never go against his words, why was Shen Chen so rebellious this time? Of course, I also want to return to Yisheng Peak, but if those monsters are still there, won't everyone go back to die? Why didn't Shen Chen understand what he was thinking?

From sadness to anger in just an instant, Xiao Lian slapped the table beside him, with a hint of anger on his face, and asked Shen Chen:

"Shen Chen, you don't even listen to Master's words?"

Shen Chen gritted his teeth, opened his eyes wide, and looked directly at Xiao Lian sitting on the main seat, tears slowly overflowing from the corners of his eyes.

In Shen Chen's heart, Master Xiaolian is the sky, his second father. Since following the master, Shen Chen has never disobeyed the master, nor has he ever been scolded by the master like this.

This time, however, it was different.

Shen Chen gritted his teeth, tears crossed the corners of his eyes, kowtowed hard again, and then knocked hard, kept knocking, letting the blood on his forehead stain the floor red, and then cried and shouted:

"Master! It's a disciple who is not filial, but the disciple just wants to return to the mountain gate, that's the disciple's home, that's ...... That's where the brothers died! ”

Shen Chen cried like this, kept kowtowing, and then choked up and cried again:

"Master...... Even if he dies, he wants to die by his brother's side...... If you die, you want to die at home! Master......"

The disciples of the Congxin Sect behind Shen Chen couldn't help crying one by one, thinking of those brothers who had lived together. I thought of my brothers who had the same fate as me, who were displaced and both parents died.

Xiao Lian looked at the disciples of the Congxin Sect below tremblingly, and suddenly stood up suddenly, and slapped the table next to him hard, smashing the Eight Immortals Table made of mahogany into pieces. suppressed the pain in his heart, gritted his teeth and scolded loudly:

"Get out! Get out of here! Don't mention this matter again, and those who mention it again will be expelled from the Heart Sect! ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Lian gathered his true qi with difficulty, and with a wave of his hand, he blew out all the disciples who were kneeling on the ground, and the wooden door broke in response. The disciples of the Congxin Sect, who were blown out of the door, slowly got up from the ground and knelt outside the door again. Towards Xiao Lian in the house, he kept kowtowing and crying and shouting:

"Master...... I beg your consent...... The apprentices want to go back......"

Xiao Lian gritted his teeth, the green tendons on his head bulged out, and he glared fiercely at the disciples kneeling outside the door, completely angry! Shouted loudly:

"Get out!"

This roar containing true qi shook the entire hall with layers of qi waves, and instantly crashed into the disciples kneeling outside the door.

Shen Chen bore the brunt of being touched by Xiao Lian's eruption of true qi. In an instant, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. But Shen Chen forcibly swallowed back the blood in his throat, and then continued to kneel outside the door and shouted:

"Master! The apprentice was beaten to death by the master. It's also better than leaving the mountain gate and being exiled! ”

Xiao Lian glared angrily at the disciples outside the door, trembling with anger, and then waved his hand vigorously, snorted coldly, and walked out of the back door of the house.

Xiao Lian walked quickly into the bedroom, the anger on his face slowly subsided. Then he sighed, and sat down weakly against the wall, coughing lightly, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

That night, Xiaolian was surrounded by monsters, whose tongues were sharper than the swords of the world. Xiao Lian's body has already been pierced to almost a thousand holes. And the blood of monsters is still violently corrosive, and even a person with such a strong body can't withstand the corrosion of so many monsters. The true qi that Xiao Lian lifted with all his strength just now was already the limit of Xiao Lian.

"Master......"

Xiao Lian sat on the ground against the wall, and his eyes appeared in front of him when Fang Wuwei first taught him the mental method, thinking of the master's high-spirited appearance, and thinking of the scene in Jinzhen, where the master cut through the void and appeared in the sky and scolded the soldiers of the Shangguan family.

"Master...... Teach the disciples what to do...... Master......"

Xiao Lian was angry at his disciples just now, but he was actually just angry at his powerlessness, but he was angry at why he couldn't fulfill his apprentice's wishes. When all this calmed down, this anger turned into a rolling wave of sadness, which kept rising and falling in Xiao Lian's heart.

"Master...... Why did you leave...... Why...... In vain...... I don't understand......"

Tears couldn't help but blur Xiao Lian's vision, making Xiao Lian cover his face helplessly. Tears slowly ran through his fingers and fell to the ground, splashing with little droplets.

Xiao Lian was like a big child, shouting for Master in his mouth, sobbing incessantly, extremely helpless.

At this time, a handkerchief with a fragrance was gently stuffed into Xiao Lian's hand covering his face.

"Xiao Fool ......"

Shangguan Rou's hands were tied with white gauze, and she slowly squatted down, hugged Xiao Lian into her arms, and whispered:

"Xiao fool, you're almost a hundred years old, don't cry."

Xiao Lian sobbed and gently hugged Shangguan Rou, but leaning on Shangguan Rou's arms, he cried louder and louder, and asked in a choked voice:

"Little Rou...... Am I doing something wrong? I...... Isn't it too useless? ”

Shangguan Rou hugged Xiao Lian, sighed softly, gently touched Xiao Lian's black hair, and whispered:

"Xiao fool, you've done a great job. If you want to blame your master, ask him to help you, and he will run away! The next time I see him, I'm sure I'll make him a pate! ”

Xiao Lian cried and leaned on Shangguan Rou's arms, shook his head, and said in a choked voice:

"Don't blame Master...... Master must have had to do it......"

Shangguan Rou sighed helplessly, continued to gently stroke Xiao Lian's black hair, and said slowly:

"Xiao fool...... Actually, you know it yourself, right? Your master is actually not that strong. ”

Xiao Lian, who was held in Shangguan Rou's arms, suddenly froze, then shook his head desperately, and said with a sob:

"No, it's not! It's me who didn't do it well! Master saved me when I was little! He's strong! Really strong! Xiaorou, I didn't lie to you! He is very strong...... Master really ...... Really strong ......"

Xiao Lian sobbed and spoke, but his voice slowly became quieter.

When I was in Golden Town. Xiao Lian has already realized the skill of "looking at color", that is, judging the enemy's next move through the enemy's subtle movements, as well as judging the enemy's inner attack thoughts. With the ability to see colors, how could he not detect Fang Wuwei's small flaws. Xiao Lian just questioned all this and suppressed it in the depths of his mind. I don't want to think about it, and I don't want to think about it.

Shangguan Rou gently patted Xiao Lian's back and said gently:

"Fool Xiao, I know that your master is very strong, and I have heard you talk about it countless times. However, I think that where your master is strong, it is definitely not what you call invincible. ”

Xiao Lian sobbed, raised his head from Shangguan Rou's arms and looked at the woman he loved the most, with a puzzled expression.

Shangguan Rou's white fingers. Gently wiped away the tears on Xiao Lian's face, then recalled the past, looked at Xiao Lian's eyes, and said slowly:

"Xiao fool, your master is very strong, he is so strong that he can make you trust him so much."

"Because Master saved me......"

Xiao Lian gently broke free from Shangguan Rou's arms, sat on the ground, and wiped his tears with the back of his hand. The tears slowly stopped falling.

Shangguan Rou gently looked at Xiao Lian who was sitting in front of him, and continued:

"Nope. It's not because your master saved you. That's why you trust him so much.

It's because of you, Master, who loves you like a relative from the bottom of my heart. Otherwise, even if he saves you ten times, you will definitely not trust him so much. He is strong enough to love you like your father. ”

Xiao Lian was stunned, and suddenly remembered that in the broken temple, the master was still a demon (ghost). He lay on the ground and fell asleep, but the master woke him up. He cursed himself and told himself to lie down on the haystack and sleep.

It was also in the ruined temple that the master stood on the roof and told himself many stories of the fairy world, which fascinated him for a long time.

Afterward. When he was growing up, as soon as the master crossed the void and came to the wilderness, he scolded the officers and soldiers who bullied him in the sky, and the phrase "Crouching Nimen Mabi" still remains in the depths of his mind.

It was also on that occasion that Master entrusted himself to Mr. Yun. If it weren't for Master's entrustment, Mr. Yun wouldn't have taken care of himself so wholeheartedly and helped him through many difficulties.

Even when he went to the fairy world, the master cooked for himself, made food for himself in the fairy world, and thought about himself wholeheartedly.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment, his mind full of what his master had done for him.

Shangguan Rou gently stroked Xiao Lian's cheek, with an unconcealable tenderness in her eyes, and continued:

"Fool Xiao, your master is strong in his understanding of magic barriers. Strong in that nerve that can accept anything. is also strong in his ability to bluff others. But, do you know what your master's strongest point is? ”

Xiao Lian was stunned, shook his head, and asked suspiciously:

"What is Master's strongest point?"

Shangguan Rou looked at Xiao Lian's eyes gently, and then gently held Xiao Lian's handsome face with her own soft little hand, and whispered:

"The strongest thing about your master is that he has taught apprentices like you. That's what he's the most! Most! The strongest place. Do you understand the fool? ”

Xiao Lian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly recalled the appearance when the master praised him as a "good apprentice".

At that time, the Master's face was a sincere satisfaction, with a strong pride, with a strong pride, as if his child had become outstanding, as a parent for the sake of the child's heartfelt pride expression!

The tears in Xiao Lian's eyes poured out inexplicably, drop after drop, and slowly turned into an endless stream of small tears.

Shangguan Rou looked at Xiao Lian gently, laughed softly, and then wiped away Xiao Lian's tears with her hands, and whispered:

"Fool, do you understand what you have to do? You shouldn't be distressed here, and you shouldn't question yourself or your Master here. Instead, we should be as bold as before and sweep away all the difficulties in front of us. This is you, and this is the good disciple who was taught by your master. Right? ”

Shangguan Rou's gentle smile seems to be able to heal all people's hearts, slowly shining in the sun.

Xiao Lian gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, nodded vigorously, and then, as if he had made up his mind, stood up, bathed in the sunlight shining through the window, looked at the sun outside the wooden window, and muttered:

"Xiaorou, thank you."

After saying that, Xiao Lian walked back to the house like a rising lion.

In the middle of the house, the disciples of the Congxin Sect were still kneeling outside the door, waiting for their master to agree to the wish to return to the Congxin Sect Mountain Gate together.

Xiao Lian's chest and arms were covered with white bandages, and he strode to the broken wooden door, and stood in the sunlight, his face resolute, looking into the distance and shouting:

"The third sentence of the heart-to-heart teachings!"

The disciples kneeling outside the door were suddenly stunned, and looked stupidly at the master who was standing in the door like a lion.

Xiao Lian's resolute gaze went straight into the distance, as if he wanted to see through the sun on the horizon, and then roared:

"Don't back down even if you fail!"

Shen Chen, who was kneeling at the front, was the first to react, this was the teachings of the Congxin Sect that every disciple had to recite when he joined the sect!

Shen Chen immediately followed Xiao Lian excitedly and shouted:

"Everyone loses, but they must win with everyone!"

The corners of Xiao Lian's mouth raised a slight arc, smiled with satisfaction, and then became serious again, and shouted loudly:

"Thirty-four disciples from the heart are obedient!"

The disciples who were kneeling on the ground looked excited, kowtowed their heads vigorously, lowered their heads and shouted loudly.

"In! Command, please be the doorman! ”

"From now on, the whole faction from the heart will attack the Wantang Gate! Run out of blood! It is bound to eradicate Wantang Gate in the wilderness! ”

Xiao Lian's face was resolute, and he shouted loudly, and then he roared:

"Remember the teachings of the Heart! Everyone says they lose, but they want to win with everyone! ”

"Everyone loses, but they must win with everyone!"

The earth-shattering roar from the disciples of the Heart Sect came out of the inn and spread throughout the entire Golden Town, drifting far away and enduring!

Fang Wuwei, who was still in the mountains and forests, seemed to be aware of the cry located in Jin Zhenzhong. couldn't help frowning, looked at the sun in the distance, and muttered to himself:

"Xiao Lian ......" (To be continued.) )
