The opening at the top of the cave is the exit to the top of the circular mountain range that surrounds Yujia Village, the rocks on the outside of the mountain range have been weathered all year round, forming a gentle slope of the ladder, and the inside is a straight rock face like a knife cutting and axe, the whole Yujia Village is like being surrounded by a solid arm, protected from the erosion of the wind and sand in the desert.

Chi Muyan walked to the edge of the cliff and formed a short drizzle of purification power over Yujia Village, which slowly fell.

After the purification was completed, Chi Muyan sat on the edge of the cliff, Chi Mudie also came over and sat next to him, pouting and looking at him, Chi Muyan looked at her cute appearance, smiled and touched her head, "Do you want to ask, why do the villagers treat me like that, I still have to come back every year to worship them, and quietly help them purify the filth?"

Ji Mudie's eyes widened in surprise and nodded, but Ji Muyan didn't answer immediately, but asked with a smile, "Fluttershy, then you answer me a few questions first, if I become that kind of monster, will you stand by and watch me be purified by others?"

Chi Mudie was startled at first, then lowered her head and shook her head slowly, "Of course not, I may do the same thing as them." ”

Chi Muyan nodded, and asked again: "Then if you were me three years ago, would you watch those monsters continue to hurt the villagers, or would you purify those monsters regardless of everyone's opposition?"

Chi Mudie frowned, her face was embarrassed, "If you don't purify the monsters, you will hurt more people, but purifying them is equivalent to killing the relatives of those people, this is not right if you don't purify, it's not right to purify, but it must be purified...... Ouch!

Ji Muyan looked at her troubled expression, shook her head and smiled, then looked into her eyes and said seriously, "Fluttershy, you have now become an excellent warrior who can take charge of himself, but you must not only have excellent martial arts, but also have a tough heart. ”

Chi Mudie looked at him, tilted his head and asked, "Tough heart, do you mean that you won't be tempted by the power of the water demon?" These presidents and Chu Bai have told us many times. ”

Chi Muyan shook his head, "It's not just what they said, let me ask you again, do you think that in the matter of the boss lady this time, since the boss lady has seen the flaws between you and Yuemi, why did she have a showdown with us in the end?"

Chi Mudie thought for a while, "You mean, the boss lady doesn't have a tough heart, so she can only give up in the end and have a showdown with us?"

Chi Muyan shook his head with a smile, "It's the opposite. Do you remember what the proprietress said when she asked you and Tsukimi to call us all to the Tumen Inn?"

Chi Mudie frowned and recalled, "The boss lady said at the time that she would let you show up together and solve all the things that should be solved." ”

Chi Muyan asked again: "Then what do you think the boss lady said should be solved?"

Chi Mudie scratched her head, "I thought that the proprietress was annoyed by us, and finally wanted to hand over the black stone to us! ”

Ji Muyan looked at her with a smile, "Then do you know how I first suspected the boss lady?"

Chi Mudie blinked, "Didn't you say that it was because you mentioned the black stone to her several times, but she refused to hand it over?"

Ji Muyan nodded, and shook his head again, "This is just one of the reasons that makes me doubt her, and I'll show you a memory now to see if you can find the clue in it." ”

After Chi Muyan finished speaking, he condensed the memory of the fight in the boss's room after meeting Yin Mo for Chi Mudie to see, Chi Mudie frowned after reading it and said: "I don't know if it's because I already know the relationship between the organs, how do I think the proprietress has consciously protected the bookcase with the hidden secret passage several times." ”

Chi Muyan nodded, " I didn't notice this bookcase at first, I just thought it might be that the proprietress cherished the furnishings in her house, and the words Yin Mo said before retreating also misled me, until that night, I found that after I turned off the lights, the proprietress went to the first floor to bring some water and food upstairs, I only thought she was hungry at first, and went downstairs to bring herself some snacks and so on, but the next day in my unintentional conversation with the buddy, the buddy said that the proprietress never eats after dark, at most just drinks two glasses of wine as a pastime。 So the next night, I turned off the lights early, hid behind the door, peeked out from the crack in the door, and found that the proprietress actually brought a whole roast chicken that night, at that time I suddenly thought that she and Yin Mo had been protecting with their bodies in the process of fighting, and it seemed that there was only that bookcase, so I sneaked out of the house after the proprietress entered the house, and looked inside on the crack of her door, and found that the proprietress was not in the house, and the house was pitch black, I couldn't see the specific situation of the bookcase at all, just when I wanted to sneak into the house to find out, but I found the mechanism arranged by the proprietress on the door, so I had to give up and go back to the house。 After that, I mentioned Kuroshi to her a few more times, and she deliberately avoided the topic, and then maybe I was too anxious, and I appeared in front of her too often, which made her wary of me, so I took the opportunity of my departure to let you and Tsukimi continue to sneak in. ”

Hearing his analysis here, Chi Mudie asked ignorantly: "Then how do you know that the boss lady must be a good person?"

Chi Muyan shook his head with a smile, "I wasn't sure at first, although the business travelers in the desert are rumored to be righteous and kind, and awe-inspiring and heroic, and she is a heroine among women, but after all, it may also be an illusion that she deliberately disguised, just like Yin Mo, who the Dark Guild has been sending to lurk beside Master Hong." ”

Chi Mudie nodded, "That's why you asked me to pretend to be a blind girl, on the one hand, I can hide my identity, and on the other hand, I can also test the proprietress of the person?"

Chi Muyan smiled with relief, "Hmm." But the reason why I let you sneak in with Tsukimi is, on the one hand, to test whether the proprietress is really good-natured, to see if she will lend a helping hand to you in difficulty, and the most basic purpose is to use a practical environment to test what you have learned in Lingjian Mountain in the past five years without your safety being threatened, so to speak, this is the first task you and Tsukimi have accepted together. ”

Chi Mudie lowered her head a little annoyed, "As a result, I didn't complete this task......"

Chi Muyan gently stroked her head and whispered, "Fluttershy, I'm not blaming you now, I'm not comforting you, everyone makes mistakes in their lives, but the real scary thing is not making mistakes, but obviously doing something wrong, but not daring to face it, not wanting to correct it, and making up all kinds of lies and excuses to cover it up, which will only continue to make mistakes again and again, and eventually force yourself into an abyss of pain from which you will never recover." ”

When Chi Muyan said this, he stretched out his hand and pointed to Yujia Village below, "Take the Yujia Village incident three years ago as an example, although I purified those villagers who have been demonized for the safety of more villagers, and the person who did wrong in their eyes was me, and I myself knew that I did this to kill their relatives, but I also knew that I had to do this, otherwise the demonic qi would continue to spread and erode more people, and there were people like the old village chief who could understand me and help me, right?" So I can only bury my regret and apology for them in my heart and let myself face it calmly. ”

Seeing that Chi Mudie looked at him with a slightly surprised expression and nodded, he continued with a smile: "Another example is the boss lady, in fact, her hatred for me in her heart is no less than that of those troublemaking villagers, and she has enough opportunities and means to kill us, if you want to be foolproof, you can also join forces with the Dark Guild to deal with us, but she still chose to test each other with me, and finally chose to compromise, all these decisions came from her tenacious heart." She didn't give up on her loved ones, but she couldn't bear to continue to watch that child suffer the inhumane treatment of being in a chained cage. She knew that the black stone, though it would relieve the child's pain for a while, was only a way to quench her thirst, and she knew that if we had a showdown, the child would be purified like the demonized villagers, and finally turned into a pile of powder. But she still chose to believe in us with the unyielding righteousness in her heart, and we did not disappoint her in the end, which laid the foundation of a firm trust between her and us. Such a seemingly bad thing turned into the beginning of a solid friendship. ”

After hearing this, Chi Mudie looked at him with admiration, "Brother, I think you look like a philosopher." ”

Chi Muyan pretended to be proud and rubbed his nose with his hand, "The philosopher's truth is realized by himself and told to others, and your brother and I are the truth that I realized and did for others to see." ”

After saying that, the brother and sister looked at each other and smiled, Chi Muyan reached out and touched her head lovingly, and looked at the sand sea in the distance, "Fluttershy, do you know? When my father died, I was specially told that I must raise you well, even if it is to give up the inheritance of Phantom Wing City, but I was really unwilling to watch my father being killed by adulterers at that time, and I didn't want to find them out for my father Zhaoxue, so I asked you before I decided to send you away. Do you want to stay with your brother and go to the end of the world with me, or do you want to leave for a while, go to a safe place, and wait for your brother to take care of Phantom Wing City before picking you up?' and you didn't hesitate to choose the latter, and tilted your little head to say to me, 'Phantom Wing City is our home, why should we leave together?' Fluttershy can't help her brother now, but she will definitely learn her skills and help her brother manage Phantom Wing City together. ’”

Ji Muyan sighed slightly when he said this, moved his gaze back, and looked at Chi Mudie's eyes seriously, " Fluttershy, in fact, in the first two years when I took over Phantom City, whenever night fell and I was left alone in the empty mansion, I always remembered what you said before leaving, and it was always your words that silently supported me, letting me know that no matter how much deceitful intrigue I was exposed to, I had to work hard to support myself, because behind me, there was my lovely sister waiting for me to take her home. ”

Chi Mudie's eyes were slightly red when she heard this, she slowly leaned her head on Chi Muyan's chest, and said softly: "Brother, I didn't know that you would have so hard at that time, you shouldn't have been angry with you because of Sha Xiao's good thing a few days ago, Cang Lan also said that you were worried about me, so you didn't let me compare with her." ”

Chi Muyan smiled dotingly and took her into his arms, "Although what Cang Lan said is like that, it is not complete. I also heard Lin Mumu and them say that day, you saved her in the underground palace of Huashan, but she sued you in turn, and plotted against you during the martial arts competition, so you asked to compete with her again in a moment of impulse and anger. And I guess when you were on Spirit Sword Mountain, there must have been a lot of arguments, right?"

Chi Mudie raised her head in surprise, "Brother, how do you know?"
