928. Chapter 928 - Someone More Important Than Her
So, he's dead!
I said this sentence very slowly, and it was also extremely painful, and even the people around me could feel a chilling feeling from every word I had.
Yan Qinghan's eyes narrowed slightly.
"What do you want to say?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Are you trying to say, I killed him?"
"Of course you didn't kill him," I was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "You didn't kill him with your own hands." β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's still that reason, you have been ordained, but you are the only one who can contact him."
"Why do you say that?"
I said calmly: "My second uncle, Master Zhengjue, has been meditating in Tianmu Temple all these years, and even a monk of the age of Master Wuyi cannot see him at any time, and of course there are very few people he comes into contact with. But that's it, at the door of his Zen courtyard, the leaves of the camellia were gnawed away by the horse. β
When he heard this, his pupils narrowed.
It was originally a detail that no one would have noticed, but it was only after Dauntless entered the monastery that night, and I stood at the door, bored, that I noticed it.
I continued: "Tianmu Temple can't walk horses, of course, it is impossible for someone to openly ride a horse from the temple gate to his Zen temple, but on the contrary, his door has been tied to a horse, which means that someone once rode a horse uphill, entered through the mountain gate, and then went to his Zen temple. And there are not too many people with such qualifications and privileges. β
Yan Qinghan said: "Then why do you say it's me?" β
"Because of equestrianism." I looked into his eyes and said seriously: "With such qualifications, you also need to have such equestrian skills, the mountain is so steep, not everyone has the ability to steer the horse uphill." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I wasn't sure it was you before, until that night, Master Zhengjue passed away, and the death knell sounded in the temple, and Lord Liu Qinghan mistakenly thought that we had an accident in the temple, so he rode a horse all the way down the mountain into Tianmu Temple." Speaking of this, I subconsciously turned around, Liu Qinghan glanced at me with a complicated expression, but did not speak, and Yan Qinghan already had a sneer on his face at this moment: "So you are sure that I am the one who rode the horse up the mountain before?" How do you know that I taught him horsemanship? β
I'm sure of course.
When Liu Qinghan was in Jixiang Village, he was so poor that he could not have a horse, let alone have the opportunity to learn to ride a horse; After leaving Jiangnan, he has been on the way, and in that state of mind, it is impossible to learn to ride a horse; It wasn't until he came to Tianmu Temple and worshiped Fu Badai that he really stayed here for a while, learning equestrianism, it could only be during this time, and during this time, there was only Yan Qinghan who was close to him and had superb equestrian skills.
However, looking at Liu Qinghan's slightly frowning brows, I didn't say these words after all, but said lightly: "Sometimes, too many possibilities will become absolute." β
Yan Qinghan laughed.
Even, while laughing, he clapped his hands gently, but his bandaged hands clapped almost without any applause, and he smiled: "Light, you really deserve to be the teacher's high feet, no wonder he likes you so much." β
I curled the corners of my lips slightly.
"Still, I want to sue you that my father's death has nothing to do with me, it's his own time."
"Maybe his limit is coming, but who brought his limit?" I didn't retreat at all, and looked at him aggressively: "The second uncle, as a senior monk, has been able to retreat from the practice several times, but this time, he passed away in a state of concentration, and then I secretly asked the old monk in the temple that the cause of his death was to die of heart." β
Yan Qinghan's face slowly turned cold.
"You are his son, you must have seen him enter the meditation practice more than once, and you must also know that the person who enters the meditation is most afraid of carrying the demons in his heart, and the biggest regret in his life, his demons, is you!"
ββ¦β¦β
"If you hadn't given him some hints, if you hadn't said something that shouldn't have been said before he entered the meditation, how could a great monk like him be condemned and die in a state of meditation?"
ββ¦β¦β
Thinking back to that night at the door of the Enlightenment meditation room, I looked back at his last words, and remembered his almost withered silence in the darkness, and I only felt my heart ache.
"You didn't kill him, but who died of him?"
ββ¦β¦β
Yan Qinghan's originally cold, expressionless face, after I finished saying this, seemed to have a crack, and his gaze was finally no longer calm, but ignited a karmic fire in the cold, and looked at me viciously.
"You're right!"
ββ¦β¦β
"I am the regret of his life, I am his inner demon!"
ββ¦β¦β
"But why don't you tell me why he has this regret about me, why did he plant this demon?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Isn't he wrong? You have always said that he is a great monk, yes, he has tinkered with a lot of Buddhist scriptures and recited Zen for decades, but a person who creates evil, what qualifications does he have to be called a 'great monk'?! β
He took a step forward and forced me to take a step back, the karmic fire in his eyes almost burned me, and he said fiercely: "If he wants to cultivate Buddhism, he should have strengthened this belief from the beginning, instead of seeing my mother, his Buddha nature will disappear completely, and he will become a bully who dominates the people's daughters; As soon as my mother died, he had Buddha nature again, and I was still in my infancy and no one cared about it, so he shaved his hair and went to practice. You sue me, is he a Buddha or a demon?! β
This time, I was dumbfounded.
The cultivation of the Buddha cannot be achieved without demons.
For Ah Xian, Yan Yizhi is a demon, which is a fact that I can't refute and won't refute.
I raised my head, calmly looked directly at the karmic fire in Yan Qinghan's eyes, and said lightly: "But, these are all things between your mother and him, and they have nothing to do with what you do." He has given you life, and half of the blood that flows in your body is his, which is already the greatest kindness of heaven and earth beyond the creation of man; You inherited his surname, got the property given to you by the Yan family, and lived for so many years, but you took his life, what is this? β
Because we were so close, I could almost hear his teeth grinding, but even with that anger, he didn't say anything to retort.
And at this moment, just behind him, outside the hidden gate, a cold and resolute voice cameβ
"It's not filial piety."
The people in the Xitang were originally focusing on the confrontation between me and Yan Qinghan, but suddenly they heard a voice interjecting, and everyone was shocked, and they all raised their heads and looked out of the door.
I also looked up, only to see another long, dry sound coming from the gate, slowly pushed open by a strong hand, and the voice continued: "And you are killing your own family, which is a great unfilial piety. β
The door opened, and the sudden wind blew the red satin under the eaves into the hunt, and for a time stained our eyes red.
But it was not only the red silk that stained my sight, but also the blood in my eyes.
Those who were guarding the door, Yan Qinghan, all fell to the ground at this moment, all silent.
And the person standing in the pool of blood, holding a long sword, his handsome and dark face was stained with blood, and his body should have been stained with a lot of blood, but because he was wearing a red robe, he couldn't see it at all, he could only see him walking into the door, walking in step by step, and the footprints behind him were all blood-red.
He said word by word: "What qualifications do people like you have to tell Old Madam Yan that your surname is Yan?" β
He was finally standing in front of us, and at the sight of his face, I almost exclaimed.
"Yuanfeng?!"
What appeared in front of us was Pei Yuanfeng, who had just ridden away and chased Xue Muhua!
He's back!
I was overjoyed: "Yuanfeng, you're back?!" β
He glanced at me, his eyes and expression were quite calm, although there was even a drop of blood condensed on his eyelashes, and his eyes were full of evil, but his emotions were not out of control in the slightest, and he only nodded lightly at me.
But this has already surprised me incomparably, after all, he is the one who commands the Xichuan soldiers and horses, as soon as he comes back, everyone has the backbone, and even the old lady Yan who was standing in the crowd was subconsciously relieved at this moment.
Yan Qinghan was also a little surprised by his return, and when he turned to look at Pei Yuanfeng, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
However, when he saw the guards outside the door who fell under Pei Yuanfeng's sword, his eyes slowly turned cold, and he didn't even take another look, as if the lives of those people had nothing to do with him at all.
This man is so cold that it is frightening.
After a moment of panic, the corners of his mouth even hooked up a faint arc, and said, "Why are you back again?" Have you saved your bride? β
As soon as I heard this, I also reacted, and hurriedly looked behind Pei Yuanfeng, but it was empty, and Xue Muhua was nowhere to be seen.
Is it?
Pei Yuanfeng's face, which had always been calm, was even more gloomy at the moment.
Yan Qinghan laughed: "It seems that you didn't catch up with your bride?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Did you not catch up, or did you think there was someone more important here than your bride?"
After speaking, the corner of his eye glanced at me, intentionally or unintentionally.
My brow furrowed immediately.
Pei Yuanfeng also glanced at me, but just said lightly: "I just know what my responsibilities are and what I should do." β
The smile in Yan Qinghan's eyes was completely unconcealed, and it was possible that he deliberately showed it to Pei Yuanfeng, after all, at this time, he always knew how to take advantage of the weakness of human nature.
He smiled and said, "Aren't you worried about the bride's life or death?" β
"She's not going to die."
"Oh?"
I don't know if Pei Yuanfeng is trying to give himself a little confidence, or if he was already sure of this, he repeated firmly: "She won't be in any danger." β
"Why are you so sure?"
"Because as I was walking down the road, I thought about the whole thing again, and then I thought about one thing."
"Oh? What do you think of? β
"I thought about it, Nian Baoyuze's battle shouldn't have been so difficult to fight, and I shouldn't have fought to that point."
ββ¦β¦β
Pei Yuanfeng's eyes became sharp, and he glared at him almost with a kind of cruelty: "But there are people who make that battle difficult to fight." β
Yan Qinghan sneered: "You want to say that I made that battle difficult?" β
Pei Yuanfeng shook his head: "It's not you." β
