Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Truth
There are three houses in this small courtyard, which have been reserved for many years by the meditation master, and even if the master is not there, there will be a special person who will be responsible for cleaning and taking care of it.
There are many flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, the outermost one is a small living room, the middle one is the practice room, and the innermost one is the teacher's bedroom.
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui entered all the way from the courtyard, whether it was the living room outside or the practice room inside, the door was wide open, and there seemed to be no one.
The two came to the door of Master Jing's bedroom, knocked lightly three times, and Yu Yulan said, "Master, disciples Yulan and Xiaohui have something to ask Master about, I wonder if they can come in?"
There was silence in the bedroom, no one seemed to be there, Yu Yulan said again, still no one answered, she and Xiaohui were a little disappointed, and when they were about to turn around and leave, there was a soft sigh from inside, and then they heard Jingxin Shitai say: "Yulan and Xiaohui, come in." β
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui were overjoyed and hurriedly pushed the door in.
The meditation master was sitting alone at the table, as if thinking about something, and there was a package on the table, which seemed to mean that he was going to travel far away.
After Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui came in and saluted, they asked, "Master has packed the package, are you going back to Shuiyue Nunnery?"
Master Jing looked at Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui and asked, "What if you don't go back, can Shiziling allow me to stay here?"
Yu Yulan was taken aback, and said with some puzzlement: "Why did Master say this, did Master have some misunderstanding when he was treating Gongzi just now?"
Jingxin Master Tai smiled faintly and said, "Misunderstanding?Yulan, if I heard correctly, three people came to my courtyard just now, and the one who stayed outside the courtyard and didn't come in should be Shi Ziling, did he wait outside to have a good fight with me?"
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui were shocked when they heard this, and Xiao Hui said: "Master, why did your old man get into such a trouble with Gongzi? There must be some misunderstanding, Gongzi stayed outside just ...... I'm just a little worried about us, and I definitely don't want to fight with you!"
Master Jingxin sneered: "Oh, yes, what is Shi Ziling worried about you? Are you afraid that being a teacher will embarrass you two? Are you still not clear about the person who is a teacher, although Yulan is only my registered disciple, she has always been deeply loved by me, how can I embarrass you two?".
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui glanced at each other, both knelt down in front of the meditation master, Yu Yulan said sadly: "The disciple has been cared for by the master since he was a child, and his respect for the master has never changed, no matter what grievances there are between the son and the master, the disciple believes that the master will never embarrass the disciple." β
The meditation master was silent for a long time, and finally sighed softly and said, "Get up." Yulan, you are gifted and intelligent, and you are very clever, and judging by your expression, I know that Shiziling should have discovered my secret. β
"Hmph, this Shi Ziling was still pretending to be with me just now, and in a blink of an eye, he brought the two of you to my courtyard, didn't he come to ask me about the guilt? Although his strength was beyond my expectations, he may not be able to win me, if he thinks that he alone can catch me and go to the government to receive a reward, then it is too much to underestimate me. β
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui were both pale faces, and when they heard Master Jing say this, it seemed that Shi Ziling's speculation was true.
Yu Yulan said: "Master, Gongzi didn't come to ask Master Xingshi for guilt, let alone arrest you on behalf of the government, but Gongzi had some guesses about Master's identity, and the disciple and Xiaohui couldn't believe it, so they came to ask Master for verification." Childe was just worried about the two of us and came with us. β
Master Jing said, "Yes, so what did he guess was the identity of the teacher?"
Yu Yulan shook her head and didn't speak, Xiao Hui couldn't help but say, "Mrs. Shi, Mr. Gongzi said that Mrs. Shi is ...... It's the Dark Sect Master of the Dark Way, Childe must be mistaken, right?"
Master Jingxin smiled and said, "Yulan, what do you say, do you think that the Master will be the sect leader of the 'Dark Path'?"
Yu Yulan looked at Mrs. Jingxin, tears couldn't help but flow from her eyes, and said: "Master, no matter what kind of identity the master is, he is always Yulan's master, and in Yulan's heart, Master will always be the teacher who loves Yulan." β
Master Jingxin nodded and sighed: "Yulan, your root bone Qingqi is talented and intelligent, and you were originally the best candidate to take over my mantle, but unfortunately your father didn't want you to go back to Shuiyue Nunnery with me, and I couldn't let go of you as a good seedling, so I accepted you as my registered disciple." β
"If you can do my best to pass on the true inheritance of my own sect, this time and now ** should also be one of the best masters among the young generation in the world, although it is not as good as that Shiziling, but compared to Ye Zhenzhen, Li Xiaoyao and Xiahou Feiyang and others, it will definitely not be inferior. β
Ye Zhenzhen, Li Xiaoyao, and Xiahou Feiyang are all the top famous masters among the contemporary young generation, and when Master Jingjing said this, it was tantamount to admitting that he was the Dark Sect Master. If it weren't for the true inheritance of the Dark Sect Master, how could it be compared to the above elites of the younger generation.
Although Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui were mentally prepared, they couldn't help but change color on their faces when they heard the meditation master say this.
Master Jingxin said: "After I made a move with Shi Ziling just now, I originally wanted to leave, but I know your character very well Yulan, if you can't get things to the bottom of it, you will have trouble sleeping." I hesitated, but I stayed, just to give you an explanation. β
Yu Yulan couldn't stop her tears like rain, and cried: "Master......"
Master Jingxin helped Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui up, and sighed: "Yes, as a teacher, he is the Dark Sect Master of the 'Dark Path', and the 'Wuchen' you have seen is one of the three 'Dark Emissaries' under my seat, and she is also my disciple, and she is one of the few people who have seen my true face. β
"Each of our 'Dark Path' official killers has a disguised identity, I grew up in the 'Dark Path' sect since I was a child, and it was not until I was eighteen years old that I joined the Huangshan Shuiyue Nunnery to study medicine, and thirty years have passed, I have not only taken over as the leader of the 'Dark Path', but also learned the exquisite medical skills of Shuiyue Nunnery, and became a famous doctor who saves the world. β
"Alas, creation makes people! Although our 'Dark Way' has killed countless people, I, the owner of Suigetsu Nunnery, have also saved a lot of sick and injured people, and sometimes even I can't figure out whether I am a good person or a bad person, Ha Lu Ha ......"
Speaking of which, the expression on Master Meditation's face looked somewhat strange.
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui quietly looked at Jing Xin Shi Tai and listened to her tell her story, although Jing Jing Shi confessed that she was the leader of the Dark Dao, but Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui had no ill feelings towards this master, both of them felt that Shi Tai was still the same Shi Tai, but she just had an extra identity.
Master Jing looked at Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui, and said with a smile: "Now that you know that I am the Dark Sect Master who kills people without blinking, are you a little afraid? Don't worry, although Master is not a good person, he will not embarrass his disciple, Master only has a grudge against that Shi Ziling, and will not be angry with you." β
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui hurriedly shook their heads, and Yu Yulan said: "After Gongzi guessed the identity of the master, he was worried that the master would embarrass the two of us, but the disciple knows that the master is a person, no matter what kind of identity the master is, the master's love for the disciple is true, so the disciple ignored the dissuasion of the master and came to see the master to ask what happened." β
Xiao Hui also said: "Mrs. Shi, Childe has already said that you are just opponents competing for the nine-yuan customs clearance diagram, not to mention that there are many grievances, and Childe does not regard Mrs. Shi as his enemy." β
The meditation master snorted too coldly and said, "Shi Ziling snatched two copies of the nine-yuan customs clearance diagram from Wuchen's hands, and now he wants to sell it when he gets cheap? Even if he doesn't treat me as an enemy, I will never let him go! I dare to rob the things we have in our 'Dark Dao', this Shiziling is really hateful!"
"Just now, I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to treat him and abolish his skills and force him to hand over the Nine Yuan Customs Clearance Diagram, but I didn't expect that his strength was still above my expectations, and he actually cultivated the 'True Yuan Blade'. Hmph, it turns out that the masked man who rescued Chen Zhongping and snatched the copper kettle from us two nights ago was Shi Ziling, and I knew that it was him, so I should have poisoned him directly. β
Yu Yulan was shocked, and hurriedly persuaded: "Master, Childe's 'Evil Night Gate' and Master's 'Dark Path' are both in the same vein as the Demon Gate, and now Childe is my and Xiaohui's fiancΓ©, no matter how everyone says it, they are all their own people, so why fight to the death? It's better for everyone to sit down and discuss it and think about how to cooperate together." β
The meditation master said disapprerovingly: "Cooperation? How to cooperate? Will Shi Zilingken return his two copies of the Nine Yuan Clearance Diagram to me? What if everyone goes out of the Demon Gate together? The Demon Sect was destroyed together with the Three Qing Sect hundreds of years ago. β
"Since I took over the position of the sect leader of the 'Dark Path', what I want to do most is to collect all the diagrams of the Nine Yuan customs clearance and become the strongest martial artist in the past and present. At that time, I will definitely erect the banner of the Demon Gate again, and merge the 'Dead Night Gate' and the 'Shura Mansion' into my 'Dark Path', and create the glory of our Demon Gate again." β
Yu Yulan and Xiao Hui looked at the inquisitive teacher's impassioned appearance, and suddenly felt that the teacher in front of them seemed to have become a complete stranger, and the original benevolent and kind elder suddenly became a high-spirited and ambitious hero.
The two of them couldn't help but wonder which one was the real meditation master.
