Chapter 8: Night Talk
At the foot of Shane Mountain, Tianlai County
The morning light shone for the first time, and the snow-covered Horn Mountain, like a shy girl hiding behind the misty clouds, loomed.
The flat streets of Tianlai County are crowded, pedestrians wearing thick leather jackets and cotton jackets are bustling, and on the roadside stalls, the vendors are shouting, and the prosperity is not lively.
In a guest room, Hu Tianyao and Liu Qingcheng were sleeping soundly on a large bed.
In the next room, the atmosphere was very cold, Situ frowned for the three of us, his face was gloomy, and he just sat there silently, without speaking.
Situ, who was sitting close to the door, looked next door with deep apologies, felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and sighed softly: "Alas, the world is unpredictable, we have done our best, and the matter has come to this point, no one can reverse anything, and it is useless to say anything more now." All we can make up for is to raise these two children to adulthood, teach them a skill, and make a generation of outstanding people. ”
Shui Ningxue's face was gloomy, and her injuries had not recovered a few points, after listening to what Situ Wei said, she said weakly: "Situ Gu Master doesn't have to blame himself too much, no one wants to hurt the innocent, the will of heaven is hard to disobey, but the demon Dao escaped with the qi of creation, but it is extremely hateful." ”
Jing Hao on the side first glanced coldly at Shui Ningxue, and then said: "Second Senior Brother will never do anything that hurts heaven and reason, and the 'Qi of Creation' may not be a bad thing in his hands, at least it will not fall into the hands of great evildoers." ”
He turned his head to look at the next door, a trace of sadness appeared on his face, and he said helplessly: "It's just that how should these two children be placed now?"
Situ was silent for me for a moment, and seemed to have a plan in his heart, and said: "I can't hide it, in fact, I have already met Liu Qingcheng's child qualifications, and the old man's disciples have not yet added an apprentice, although my son and daughter are talented, but they are not motivated, the old man's intention is to accept him as a personal disciple, I don't know what the two of them want?"
Jing Hao was stunned for a moment at first, but he didn't expect that Situ would be like him to accept apprentices. But seeing that he had spoken beforehand, it was not good to say more.
He put away his helplessness for a while, forced a smile, and said: "That's okay, the kid named Liu Qingcheng has really good qualifications and talents, and it is his blessing to be able to worship under the master of Situ Valley, as for ...... little girl?"
Shui Ningxue has been lonely since she was a child, but she can't see Hu Tianyao's current situation.
"There are many men in the two sects, and if this girl arrives in the two sects, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient. In addition, the two of them belong to the same village, and seeing each other every day will inevitably have more problems, so let her go back to the Extreme Emperor Sect with me!"
Seeing that the fate of the two children had been decided, the three of them were greatly relieved.
Jing Hao suddenly thought of something, his eyes were slightly uneasy, and he turned his head to look at Situ Wei and asked, "If these two children ask about Xueen in the future, how should they answer?"
Situ frowned for me, he didn't think of this, he gently stroked his beard with his right hand, and said, "These two children are still young, if they know the truth, I don't know what impact it will have on them." I don't want to tell them about this yet, and don't make a noise when I go back, and I can hide it for as long as I can. ”
"Is this okay? If they know the truth, how should we deal with it?" Jing Hao was still a little worried.
Shui Ningxue seemed to be a little unable to sit still, and said: "If this blood debt is to be repaid, it should also be repaid by the Demon Dao, if it weren't for him to use the power of the 'Qi of Creation', how could it cause such a consequence today? In my opinion, if there really is a day, I will tell them everything that happened thoroughly, and tell them how the Xuan Dao is harmful......
"Stop!" Shui Ningxue's words didn't fall, and I heard Situ shout angrily for me: "You and I are among the avalanche disasters in Xueen Mountain, if we don't have no worries about fighting methods, how can we cause the avalanche disaster? Besides, if it weren't for the last moment when Xuan Dao used the 'Qi of Creation' to ban the avalanche for a moment, do you think we would still be standing here talking like we are now?
He slowly stood up and walked to the window, looked out of the window and didn't know what he was thinking, but heard him sigh softly: "Alas, the old man has never owed anyone else in his life, but this time he owes two debts that cannot be repaid!"
He stood with his hands behind his back, turned around slowly, and a few wrinkles appeared on his steely face at some point, with a little vicissitudes and exhaustion in his voice, and said: "The matter of chasing the 'Qi of Creation', I will no longer participate in the future after sealing the Situ family of the Demon Valley." Besides, Xuan Dao is afraid that he will not be lightly injured this time, so let him fend for himself! As for the 'Qi of Creation', the old man will no longer peep at it, this treasure has nothing to do with our company, but the old man does not want to force the person who is destined! Providence creates, all those who are destined to live in it, let it be!"
As soon as I heard that Situ Wei didn't want to participate in the 'Qi of Creation' anymore, Shui Ningxue hurriedly said: "Does Lord Situ Gu really want to let Xuan Dao do whatever he wants?" The 'Qi of Creation' contains the morality of heaven and is related to the luck of the world, if you get into the hands of that demon Dao, you don't know what disasters will arise, can you really sit back and watch the safety of the world and ignore it?"
Situ saw that Shui Ningxue was against the army, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, and glared at her with a trace of momentum and said solemnly: "The old man has already said very clearly, do you want me to repeat it for you again?"
Shui Ningxue saw that she seemed to have annoyed the other party, but she still couldn't resist the temptation of the 'Qi of Creation', and she couldn't bear the uneasiness in her heart, and she still wanted to persuade again, when she saw Situ gently wave her right hand for me, and said, "I don't have to say anything, I will leave here tomorrow and go back to the Magic Valley to retreat and heal." ”
And Jing Hao on the side glanced at Shui Ningxue, and said coldly: "I still believe that my second senior brother will not do anything that hurts the heavens and reason, and today I make a promise on behalf of the Qingsang faction, and I will not interfere in the matter of 'Creation Qi' in the future." Tomorrow, I will walk with Brother Situ, and it is time to go back to the mountain gate to repay my life to the senior brother in charge. ”
Shui Ningxue's face, which was already pale due to internal injuries, was now bloodless, so she snorted coldly and said, "Since this is the case, the Tao is not the same, then I wish the two of you a smooth journey tomorrow." With that, he turned and walked out the door.
The rest of Situ looked at each other a few times for me, and each sighed.
Jing Hao thought of Xuan Dao's last words, and asked puzzledly: "Brother Situ, is it really as the second senior brother said, can the qi of creation really live the flesh and bones of the dead?"
Situ smiled for me and said, "People can't be resurrected after death, after all, they can't go against the sky, and I don't know who told Xuan Dao to talk such nonsense!"
Jing Hao shook his head and sighed softly: "The second senior brother has been lonely all his life, and he misses it so much, he actually believes such nonsense, and I don't know what the purpose of the deceived person is!"
Situ fell into deep thought for me, and thought to himself, 'There are many strange things in this matter, and it seems that someone is deliberately provoking and instigating it. ’
"I hope I'm thinking too much!" I didn't have a clue for a while, Situ could only sigh for me and stop thinking about it.
