The ground in the snowy forest trembled violently, causing the snow on the ancient trees to fall uncontrollably. The demons looked around, extremely frightened.

The eyes under the Demon Lord's mask sank, and a black shadow flashed. With a "whew", he flew into the sky. Immediately after that, another red light flashed, and the demon king next to the tree disappeared abruptly.

The silver-haired man looked at the two shadows flying into the air, his brows furrowed, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

In the distance, the cold valley filled with cold smoke.

The mountain wall cracked open, and the place where it collapsed was rapidly sinking inward.

The sky is covered with white clouds.

The demon king looked down in shock and exclaimed, "What's the matter?"

The Demon Lord glanced down lightly. The bright eyes, the streamer flashed slightly, and the body disappeared. When the demon king saw the disappeared demon lord, he snorted disdainfully, and also flew down into the sky.

"The cold valley in the distance has collapsed inexplicably, and the ground of the snow forest has now shaken violently. Everyone left quickly, and it will soon sink to the bottom of the lake. The Demon Lord swept away the countless demons in front of him and ordered.

After hearing this, the demons dared to stay longer, and they all fled in all directions in a hurry.

The Demon Lord suddenly turned his head again and looked at the silver-haired man in a strange way, and the black shadow flickered and disappeared in an instant.

The demon king looked at the little demon fleeing in all directions and the disappearing black shadow, and his face was warm. This demon lord is becoming more and more arrogant, and he even gives orders to his little demon. The red light flew, and the demon king, who was about to leave, saw the silver-haired man behind him, smiled evilly, and pretended to be surprised: "Chen Xuan, this snowy forest is about to be destroyed, why don't you leave?

The silver-haired man glanced at the mocking demon king and ignored it.

The demon king is self-consciously boring. "Then you just wait slowly! This king will not be accompanied!" After saying happily, he turned around and disappeared in front of him.

-----

On a collapsed mountain wall, a young man and a girl are lying at this moment.

The young man has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and is dressed in plain clothes. The girl is dressed in pink and skirt, and her appearance is unparalleled.

But when they saw them covered in dust and bruises, their hands were tightly intertwined. It's like a couple who will never die.

I don't know how long it took, the girl's eyebrows furrowed slightly, moved, and slowly opened her eyes.

As far as the eye can see, the sky is clear and blue. White clouds quietly floated in front of you.

Shuying was in pain all over her body and forced herself to stand up. In a trance, she remembered that in the darkness of falling snow and sand, a hand firmly grasped her. The left hand is unintentionally pulling a pull. A bony right hand hits a man's eye. She immediately looked with joy at its owner, the unconscious boy lying below the mountain wall.

The young man's sword eyebrows were deeply locked, his eyes were closed, and his thick eyelashes were quietly stretched on them. Under the straight bridge of the nose, the lips are pursed.

Shuying looked at the boy tenderly, reached out to stroke the boy's frowning brow, and tried to smooth him.

Hazy and hazy.

There was a pair of hands that gently caressed his face, warm and comfortable. The moment the warmth receded from his face, he instinctively grabbed it tightly and opened his eyes.

"Why are you?" looked at the pink-clothed girl who burst into front of her, and it was He Yu's cold voice.

Shuying looked at He Yu's clenched left hand and his indifferent tone, feeling bitter in her heart. But he snorted coldly: "It's not me, who could it be?" and said with a sarcastic smile: "We fell to the bottom of the valley along the snow and sand together, and woke up and came here, haven't you forgotten it all?"

He Yu instantly remembered in his mind that when he was stuck in the snow sand, he instinctively grabbed her hand and fell into the darkness with her.

He looked at his right hand almost at the same moment, and almost at the same moment, he caught a glimpse of himself grabbing Shuying's right hand, and he didn't know if it was out of instinct or something else, he coldly shook off her hand, held back the pain all over his body, turned around and stubbornly and slowly got up. Only the wave that rushed into his eyes slightly revealed his heart at the moment.

At this moment, what Shu Ying's eyes saw was only He Yu's indifferent expression and coldness, and it could even be said that he looked at the right hand that grabbed her, and for a moment it was full of disgust.

She was full of sadness and smiled coldly: "Why? Hold my hand, so disgusted? Because I'm a demon? Then why did you hold on so tightly to the snow when you fell into it?"

He Yu's back stiffened, but he didn't dare to look at her again. Because of that, he would be afraid, afraid that the indifference and coldness that he had managed to hold on to would collapse in an instant. "Since ancient times, demons and Taoists have always been opposites, so we don't want to see each other again in the future. After saying it with difficulty, He Yu drove his fingers and flew on the silver sword.

A bitter pain welled up in Shuying's heart. She smiled coquettishly and said angrily, "Okay! In the future, you cross your single-plank bridge, and I will take my sunny path." We should have never known each other, and even if we did, please don't show mercy to you!!"

He Yu turned his back to Shuying, half loudly, and nodded stiffly. The silver sword moved sharply, and the moment he flew out, he suddenly turned his head again and opened his mouth, "Actually, I don't hate you. It's just that we are opposites after all. But he didn't say that. He just said lightly, "Okay! goodbye." ”

Tears rolled down her cheeks. Shu Ying stared at He Yu's departing figure in a daze until it completely disappeared.

-----

The sky above the Cold Valley.

The silver sword shining with blue light, He Yu stood quietly on it, looking at the shadow on the collapsed mountain wall somewhere, and his heart was tightly entangled. He clutched his chest hard, trying to suppress the clear pain in his heart. However, the pain was more intense.

Turning his head lonely, a beautiful handsome face behind him came into view. He looked at the man in front of him in shock, and his face gradually turned indifferent.

The silver-haired man smiled slightly, and said, "You know everything." ”

"Yes. The faint answer was mixed with a thick resentment.

"Are you complaining about Uncle Shi?"

"Heyu, don't dare. While finishing speaking, He Yu looked around the white clouds with evasive eyes.

The silver-haired man laughed loudly, "Do you still say no?" Actually, Uncle Shi didn't mean to deceive you, but after you know the truth from being hostile to monsters since you were a child, you will never agree to Uncle Shi's request." ”

He Yu was furious, looked at the silver-haired man, and said loudly: "Even then, Uncle Shi shouldn't lie to He Yu." He Yu's temperament, Uncle Shi understands best. ”

The silver-haired man sighed slightly and said gently: "He Yu, there are too many disturbances in the world, and sometimes lying doesn't mean anything. These you will understand from you. It's okay if you hate Uncle Shi, or if you complain about Uncle Shi, but Uncle Shi will ask you to do me one last favor, is that okay?"

Facing the low tone that Uncle Shi had never had before, He Yu suddenly felt uneasy in his heart. Suddenly forgot the resentment in his heart before, raised his head, and said anxiously and worriedly: "Uncle Shi, did something happen to you?" ”

The silver-haired man smiled bitterly: "You should have heard about everything that happened to Uncle Shi before!"

"Yes. Could it be—" exclaimed Heyu.

The silver-haired man nodded, and there was a kind of shaking yearning on his peerless face. "She is Shuying's sister. ”

"What?" As if guessing something, He Yu couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Uncle Shi, she is a demon, how can you..."

"Haha! What kind of demon is and what kind of person should be? Compared with those who have a kind and evil face, those demons who have never harmed people don't know how many times better? And as a demon, what is wrong with her?"

This passage undoubtedly deeply shocked He Yu's heart. But the philosophy that has been ingrained for years still makes it unacceptable to him. It's just that somehow that pretty face appeared in his heart again - Shuying.

He was shocked in his heart, shook his head, and said firmly: "Uncle Shi, even if it is as you said, it is a very small number. Since the beginning of the world, monsters have brought disaster to the world and harmed countless mortals. This is an ironclad and unchanging fact. Since we have miraculous abilities and are higher than ordinary mortals in the earthly world, we should eliminate demons and take it as our responsibility to maintain the peace of the world. What's more, my Ye Jian sect is still at the top of the four major sects of the righteous path, and his behavior should bear the brunt of it, so as not to fall behind. ”

When He Yu said this, his face was filled with a cheerful smile of pride. It can be seen that his door is admired in the world and his lofty status in his heart.

"So Uncle Shi, why do you have to argue for the monster? Today's words, He Yu should not have heard them at all, okay. ”

Back then, it was precisely because Uncle Shi fell in love with Shuying's sister Hua Demon that he uttered these deviant words that he was driven out of the sect by his ancestor under serious injuries, cut off his family name, and was not allowed to step close to Ye Jianmen for half a minute. Although, after a hundred years, it has faded away in the door. But in front of the heads of the four major sects, it was a humiliation and shame that Shi Er was rementioned and could not erase. Because of this, he learned more or less about it from his uncle. Now, seeing Uncle Shi and listening to Uncle Shi's words, He Yu had a lot of confusion in his heart, and he didn't know whether those words should be said by his junior, so he couldn't help but say them all for a while.

"Hehe! I can't see that I haven't seen him for a few years, He Yu has really grown up, and he will also teach his uncle. The silver-haired man looked at the young man in front of him with a gentle gaze and smiled faintly.

"No, no. When He Yu heard Uncle Shi say this, he felt a little anxious in his heart: "How dare He Yu." It's just that since the death of the ancestor of the master, every time He Yu looks at the head of the house and mentions his uncle, he is that kind of regret and sigh, knowing that the head of the family has always hoped that Uncle Shi can let go of that sin as soon as possible, and "perceived" The word "evil fate" seems to be inappropriate, He Yu immediately changed his words and said: "That relationship that should not exist can return to my door as soon as possible." The right talent, that's the way, that said those words that transcended the seniority. I hope Uncle Shi forgives, don't blame He Yu. ”

Uncle Shi has always been mild-mannered, and he is also the one who loves him the most among all the elders. He was not worried about whether his uncle would punish him or be angry with him. Just looking at Uncle Shi's unchanged expression, he suddenly realized a very serious problem for him - this Uncle may never let go of the day. Even if it's 100 years later. Therefore, he felt a great sadness in his heart, a pain that could not be explained and could not be poured, and even helplessness.

The silver-haired man still had a faint smile on his face, but he didn't answer and asked: "He Yu, you said that between heaven and earth, the demon should be killed, and the demon should be eliminated." There is no need to ask why, because they should all be killed. The uncle asked you, do you know that all spirits are born with all kinds of monsters, and there are so many monsters that exist with people in this world, but you have killed them all. ”

When He Yu heard the silver-haired man suddenly ask, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "With my strength alone, I can't kill it all, and I can't get rid of it." But I believe that the world is so big, in addition to my Ye Jian sect, plus the other three major decent sects, there are many, innumerable, like me, my peers of the same clan are working hard to kill demons and eliminate demons... As long as everyone is united, persistent, and persevering, one day, we will be able to eliminate all the monsters in the world. ”

The silver-haired man smiled faintly again and asked, "Then what is the difference between your behavior and the bloodthirsty and ruthless monster in your mouth?"

"This—" Heyuden was stunned by the question. He was almost speechless about a question he had never thought about. It's just that I think the monster should be killed, which is a natural thing. However, when he looked up at the silver-haired man with a smile in front of him, he opened his mouth, but for a moment he couldn't find any suitable words to distinguish it.

I only heard the silver-haired man smile faintly and said again: "Then look at that girl again, it is also the flower demon in your mouth." He pointed to the white clouds, where a beautiful figure could be seen on the collapsed mountain wall below, and said, "She is also known to you, have you ever thought she is hateful and should be killed?"

He Yu was stunned again, and looked at the finger according to his words... The gaze was stunned. The silver-haired man's voice continued: "You said that you swore to the death to get rid of all the monsters in the world... So, if Uncle Shi wants you to kill her immediately in order to prove your persistence and belief in your heart, can you do it without the slightest hesitation as you did at the beginning?"

He Yu was even more stunned. At this moment, almost all his thoughts followed the silver-haired man's words. He seemed to be holding his breath, and could only look at the man in a daze, unable to say a word.

The silver-haired man got the answer he wanted from his face, without exception. "It is precisely because you know her that you have been in trouble all the way, you have to see her desperate behavior to save your sister, and you feel in your heart, even after knowing that she is a flower demon, you are still willing to help. Isn't it because you think she's kind?"

'Isn't it because you think she's kind?' these words hit his heart like a hammer word by word. “... I, I—" He Yu's eyes widened, and he almost felt that every breath became extremely difficult and rapid.

"You have been with her for so short a time, and you feel that she is kind-hearted and can't bear to get rid of her. How can you generalize and believe that under this world, the monsters are all hateful and cold-blooded, and they should be ruthless and kill them quickly. ”

He Yu froze there. There is a subtle change in my heart. He couldn't say what these changes were, but he felt a kind of fear and fear that they were saying. A terrible thought arose faintly, and he couldn't tell if it was a subversion of faith and a challenge to his beliefs, or something else. But for him, who is not deeply involved in the world and is only seventeen years old, he is already a little at a loss.

After a long while, he calmed down and said: "Uncle Shi, you tell He Yu that there are not a few good things among demons in the whole world, so He Yu should not generalize and kill them all." But do you know that monsters have always been bloodthirsty and cruel, and they did not hesitate to take human lives and suck up human blood in an instant. If every time you encounter such a situation, I am afraid that before you can get along with it, it will already take your life, how can you have such good thoughts as you, and how can you have time to detect the difference between good and bad..."

At the beginning, he saw the cruelty of the monster with his own eyes, and the fact that he washed a village in blood, and was caught and killed by all the senior brothers in the rear. At that time, the land was crimson, and an entire village was killed, not a single baby was spared. Even after many years, looking back on it now, it feels terrifying!

After a pause, He Yu continued: "Such facts and evidence, for generations, are not uncommon, and they are not a problem... Moreover, Uncle Shi, please forgive Heyu's shallow qualifications, dullness, and inability to understand and understand... Because in He Yu's opinion, if, according to what Uncle Shi said, then my Ye Jian Sect has been created by the ancestor of the Founding Sect and passed down from generation to generation, wouldn't the belief and justice that I abide by be wrong?"

When He Yu said these words, he didn't have any disrespect for his uncle, but he still couldn't understand why his uncle still didn't change, and almost made him lose his beliefs. He thought in his heart, thinking that the belief that was almost shaken at that moment just now was only because these words were only spoken by his favorite uncle, and they had such a short-term persuasive power, and they almost confused him... That's it.

The silver-haired man knew these words, and now that he said them, the young man in front of him might not understand and understand. It's just that his eyes swept somewhere, and he saw a pink shadow standing up, wanting to leave. He raised his head and smiled, his smile was still gentle, and said, "He Yu, what Uncle Shi said, you may not be able to understand it at all now, and even think in your heart that Uncle Shi is hopeless, right!"

"No, it's not like that, uncle..."

The silver-haired man stopped him from continuing, shook his head, and smiled softly, "It's okay. It's normal for you to think like that... But Uncle Shi believes that one day, you will understand. I don't want to say more about the other uncles. You handed this letter to the head of the house for me, and said on my behalf, that the junior brother was sorry for him and failed to live up to his expectations. The silver-haired man waved his hand, and a letter floated silently in front of the young man.

He Yu took the letter and looked at the silver-haired man's face with a bright smile as beautiful as a blooming flower bud, and for some reason, he had the illusion that he might never see him again.

"He Yu, you will encounter many hardships in the future, but you have to remember Uncle Shi's words, everything has a cause and effect, and everything should not be too forced. This Tairuo Heart Sutra was originally given to me by a high-ranking monk, and now it is useless for my uncle to keep it. If you take it and study it well, it will be of great help to you in the future. As the silver-haired man spoke, a book with a sallow cover stood in front of He Yu.

He Yu nodded, and a wave of sadness swelled up inexplicably in his heart. His eyes were red, and he couldn't help but say sadly, "Uncle Shi, where are you going?"

"Uncle, I'm going to pay off my debts. The gentle voice carried an indescribable relief and joy.

"Uncle Shi..."

But the handsome figure had disappeared from sight. He Yu stared at it in a daze, for a long time, lowered his head and clenched the book in his hand sadly. With a flick of his fingers, a blue light streaked across the sky and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
