Chapter 52: Innocent?

When the Yue Pavilion Lord heard this, he pondered for a while, and then said: "Eight hundred years ago, when the Holy Master and Taizu first held the Chengyuan Examination, someone asked, during the examination, if a disciple had an epiphany and didn't want to miss the opportunity to break through, would he be ordered to withdraw from the examination?" ”

He smiled, "That's why Master Saint has stipulated that if there is a breakthrough in the process of the examination, you are still eligible to participate, as long as you have not made a breakthrough before the examination begins." ”

Lin Lan was stunned.

"Normally, once there is an opportunity for a breakthrough, it will break through as soon as possible to avoid missed opportunities and accidents."

Speaking of this, the Yue Pavilion Lord shook his head slightly, and said: "But occasionally there are disciples who break through on the spot, or accumulate extremely strong, in order to win the championship, they deliberately wait until after the test to break through, but it is very rare." ”

Lin Lan understood what he meant.

He doesn't understand the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism, but the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism pay more attention to 'enlightenment', Taoism comprehends the integration of heaven and earth, and Buddhism is the essence of enlightenment, if there is an opportunity for breakthrough, it is naturally unlikely to deliberately let go.

And if the Human Sect wants to refine its supernatural powers, it also needs the opportunity of the perfect unity of the mind and the artistic conception and mana.

If you miss it, you don't know when you will encounter a good opportunity again, and you have to accumulate extremely strong to be able to get stuck in this realm.

"Lord Sake, please use tea."

At this time, Fan Qingyao walked in with the brewed new tea and placed the teacup on the table next to the Yue Pavilion Master.

The master of Yue Pavilion picked up the teacup and sniffed it, tasted it again, and couldn't help but admire: "June Sparrow's tongue, it's not bad." ”

Immediately, he put down the teacup and said casually: "How is the cultivation of the students recently?" ”

"Sacrificial wine, the students have just laid a foundation in recent days." Fan Qingyao replied.

"Not bad." The Yue Pavilion Lord rarely praised: "With your qualifications and piano skills, it is a little difficult to think that only the level of refining the heart, but it is not in the way, it is estimated that you can refine the prototype of supernatural powers in a year and a half, and you can be regarded as a first-class genius." ”

Fan Qingyao secretly thought, even the sacrificial wine thinks that I will take a year and a half, why does the son say that two or three months is enough?

"What's wrong?" Seeing that she was distracted, the Yue Pavilion Lord couldn't help but wonder.

"Ah...... It's nothing. ”

Fan Qingyao immediately changed the topic: "The student just thought of the demonic dream snake that killed in public a few days ago, and he was a little uneasy, and he wanted to quickly cultivate his supernatural powers, so that he could have the power to protect himself, and he didn't know if he caught the dream snake?" ”

The Yue Pavilion Lord was slightly stunned, shook his head and said: "No, cultivators from all sides searched the whole city, but they couldn't find any clues, and from the subsequent investigation, the dream snake seems to know Chonghua well, so ......"

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Lan asked, "Since no clues have been found, why do you say that the dream snake knows everything about Chonghua?" ”

The Yue Pavilion Lord did not answer, but glanced at Fan Qingyao.

Fan Qingyao immediately said sensibly: "I'll go next door to talk to Sister Yannan." ”

With that, she turned and went out.

After she left, the Yue Pavilion Lord said to Lin Lan: "It's not that she can't listen, but your little girl's cultivation is too low, and it's not a good thing to know too much." ”

"I understand." Lin Lan nodded invisibly.

Only then did the Yue Pavilion Lord continue: "The reason why it is said that the dream snake knows Chonghua well is very simple. ”

"There are a total of seventeen snake demon women captured by Faguang Temple from that Qingmu Mountain, fifteen of them were taken away by King Ning, and there are two snake demon women who were privately gifted to a certain senior member by His Royal Highness the Prince, and their whereabouts are extremely secret." He said: "But on the day of the murder, if it weren't for the fact that the Jingtiantai had arranged a back hand in advance, the two snake demon women would have almost been rescued. ”

Lin Lan was thoughtful.

When the fifteen snake demon women were taken by the qin scholar and flute sound, they also said that they were eighteen sisters, and the dream snake was the youngest sister.

"If you don't know Chonghua well, how can you investigate the whereabouts of those two snake demon women so easily?"

The Yue Pavilion Lord shook his head slowly, and said: "Now that those two snake demon women have also been imprisoned in the depths of the 'Peerless Abyss' by the Jingtiantai, even if the dream snake has great ability, it is impossible to save people, I am afraid that it has already given up, so I can't find its trace." ”

Lin Lan was thoughtful.

What he wanted to know most was what had happened to cause the Dream Snake to kill him on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month?

So, it can't be so simple.

The dream snake will inevitably have follow-up actions.

"Sacrificial wine, do you think the dream snake really gave up?" Lin Lan said softly.

"Why do you ask?" The Yue Pavilion Lord glanced at him.

Lin Lan shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing, but I think ...... The fifteen snake girls have a deep relationship with the dream snake. ”

"Those fifteen snake girls are obviously so afraid, but they are still protecting the dream snake, if it weren't for the sound of the flute, I am afraid that its existence will not be exposed, and the dream snake is also because those snake girls were bullied, so they don't care about anything, and directly kill those who are bullied."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "This kind of affection can only be found in the closest family members, right?" ”

The Yue Pavilion Lord was silent, he had naturally thought of this a long time ago.

After a long silence, the Yue Pavilion Lord said: "Mr. Lin said this, the group of evil ghosts in Jingtiantai who are best at taking advantage of people's weakness and all kinds of vicious means can naturally imagine it, they have already used those two snake demons to make an article, and they tried to lure the dream snake out a few days ago, but it was useless." ”

"Already tried?"

Lin Lan's heart moved, and he suddenly spoke: "Sacrificial wine, I think it's a little strange. ”

"How?" The Yue Pavilion Lord looked at him.

Lin Lan pondered for a moment and said:

Judging from the behavior of the dream snake these days, she shouldn't be the kind of reckless impulsive person, otherwise how could there be no movement at all these days?

"The trap and temptation set by a veteran of Jingtiantai must be carefully planned, she can see through it and hold back, which means that she should understand the means of Jingtiantai, and it can't be a very impulsive temperament."

Speaking of this, he frowned slightly and said, "However, she found out that her fifteen sisters were bullied and that they were fine, so she directly killed the fifteen people who had touched her sisters recklessly?" And at the entrance ceremony, in a grand manner, killing people in front of so many people? ”

When the Yue Pavilion Lord heard this, he was also stunned, and seemed to think of something.

Lin Lan continued:

"Even if she really wants revenge, it shouldn't be like this, right?

"The night before she killed, she found fifteen sisters through the bloodline secret technique, but it wasn't until daytime the next day that she killed in public.

"I'm calm enough to endure the night, and I can take revenge at other times, but I have to make such a big fuss?"

Speaking of this, Lin Lan shook his head and said, "Everyone can see that doing this will only force her fifteen sisters into a crisis and push them into a desperate situation, which is too unreasonable, right?" ”

The Yue Pavilion Lord also stood up suddenly and said, "That's true. ”

He paced slowly around the room, thinking carefully.

"She knows Chonghua City so well, and she is so calm these days, she has never fallen into the trap of Jingtiantai, it is impossible for her not to know the consequences of doing so, and that day at the entrance ceremony, Jingtiantai, which has always been at odds with our Academy, actually had a master present in person, which is a little strange, and now I want to ......"

"There must be something wrong with this!"

The Pavilion Master Yue stopped, turned his head to look at Lin Lan, and said, "Mr. Lin Lan really saw it thoroughly, this murder case is definitely not a simple revenge, there must be deeper treacherous things in it!" ”

Lin Lan was in a state of tranquility, his mind was clear and active, like a calm bystander.

He didn't react, but said, "But it doesn't make sense to know this for the time being, after all, these are just our guesses." ”

The Yue Pavilion Lord sighed and said, "I also understand, it's just ......"

He didn't say that sentence after all, he just shook his head and said: "I have long known that Jingtiantai will deal with many dark things for Dayu, and it will inevitably melt into the darkness, and those things that are stained with blood and dirt cannot be done less, and the hidden strength of Jingtiantai is so strong, there must be a problem." ”

But Lin Lan listened, but he was a little helpless.

He guessed that his endgame might not be too simple to dream snake killing, but he didn't expect that there would be such a shady scene hidden.

The Yue Pavilion Lord sat down again, took a sip of tea, and after calming down, he sighed lightly: "I didn't expect Mr. Lin to look at things so thoroughly, Yue Mou has lived in vain for more than a hundred years, and it is not as thoughtful as you, you are really taught." ”

Immediately, he put down the teacup, looked at Lin Lan, and said:

"Speaking of which, I have a question that I would like to ask Mr. Lin for advice.

"The Sect Master once told me that no matter whether those snake demon women were just implicated or not, since they came to the high walls of this Chonghua City, no one would care if they were innocent or not, let alone how they came here.

"Yue has always pursued the principle of the Holy Master, and some can't bear to see this cold world, even if he understands this principle, but there are still many unspeakable feelings in his heart, so he wants to ask Mr. Lin......

"Do you think those snake girls who didn't harm anyone are innocent?"

Innocent?

Lin Lan was about to answer yes when he heard this, but he fell silent again.

Because......

When he thought of the desperate appearance of the group of snake demon women trembling in the crowd, somehow, he suddenly remembered the person who turned into light and dust, suffered in the suffering of the world all his life, and finally brought him hope in despair.

Then, he also thought of himself who had fought hard against the Mandate of Heaven, had died in the endgame, and was about to die in the endgame again.

Are they innocent?

Is he innocent?

Are you innocent?

Silent, silent, Lin Lan thought for a long time, and was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"When the first generation of national teachers unified the world, they destroyed all countries, cut down mountains and destroyed temples, but no one ever said that he was guilty, and there was no mention in the history books about how many innocent people he affected, so ......"

His eyes were terrifyingly quiet, and he said word for word: "Only the weak are never innocent." ”
