Chapter 7: How to Have a Clear Conscience
The mountain range where the Fuyao Sect is located is very steep and steep, and the peaks are extremely high, so most of the places in the sect are in the clouds.
Xu Huaigu crossed two mountains in this mist before arriving at Changyue Peak, where the Patriarch Hall was located.
It is said that this Changyue Peak is the central area of the Fuyao Sect, because the mountain peak is very high, but there is a natural arc, if the clouds and mist disperse on a sunny day, from a distance, it looks like a crescent moon, so it is called the Changyue Peak. And the mountain peak is so high that standing on it at night, it seems that you can touch the bright moon in the sky, and it also responds to the name of the peak of Changyue Peak.
The location of the ancestral hall is easy to find, and there is a place faintly lit near the mountain peak, that is, the light of the natal soul lamp in the ancestral hall that keeps going day and night.
The Fuyao Sect is not like the New Rain Sect, only that natal soul lamp. The large sect naturally has the courage and means of the great sect, and hundreds of soul lamps gather together, but it is a rather vast scene.
Each Natal Soul Lantern burns a hundred large beads a year, which is not a small amount. And the soul lamp is closely related to people, if the soul lamp goes wrong, that person will also be hit hard, so the soul lamp has disadvantages and advantages, and it needs to be carefully weighed before it can be used.
Xu Huaigu walked to the door of the Patriarch Hall of the Fuyao Sect, but saw an elder with sword eyebrows and angry eyes guarding the main gate, and everyone who entered and exited the Patriarch Hall had to be closely interrogated by him.
However, one thing that made Xu Huaigu a little strange was that despite the wealth of the Fuyao Sect, the Ancestor Hall still only had one floor. It seems that this is the consensus of all the sects in the world, and the ancestral hall has only one floor to highlight its majesty and solemnity.
When the elder guarding the door saw that Xu Huaigu was a living person, he immediately raised his vigilance, pulled a pair of sword eyebrows, and stared at him deadly. Xu Huaigu was not annoyed, so he sat cross-legged next to a stone path next to the ancestral hall and looked into the depths of the path.
He doesn't do anything illegal, so what can the elder do about him?
Sure enough, as Yin Zishi said, this is the road to go to the back of the mountain to take a bath, all of them are women, and there is not a single man.
At this time, it was already night, and there were not many women who came to the mountains, most of them returned from bathing in the mountains. Even if it was a sword cultivator, the woman did not wear a sword when she bathed. So Xu Huaigu saw groups of women wearing loose bathrobes walking in front of him, bringing an endless stream of fragrant winds.
Xu Huaigu smiled lightly, this is really the right place. With such a beautiful scenery in the world, there is no one in the Fuyao Sect who knows the goods, and it is monopolized by himself, which is really a happy life. If he hadn't been too light, he would have taken the wine and drank it.
How did he know that if the men of the ordinary Fuyao Sect had come to this road and sat so blatantly, they would have been raised by this group of women a long time ago. But when they saw that Xu Huaigu was a fresh face, and he was extraordinarily handsome, their hearts were full of spring, and they intended to show off a little, so they didn't care that he was sitting here.
Xu Huaigu must know that they all have such thoughts in their hearts, and they must praise the word "Lingxiu". In his eyes, being so cute and cute is feminine, if this woman is as arrogant and unkind as An Xiaoyu and Fan Xuan, or as ignorant as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, Xu Huaigu will be disappointed.
Some women couldn't hold back their loneliness in their hearts, and they were encouraged by the sisters around them, or threw a few flattering glances at Xu Huaigu from afar, or thought about going to talk to them. But Xu Huaigu admired and appreciated it, and also said a few faint words, but he didn't even say his name, which couldn't help but make those women a little annoyed and disappointed.
Xu Huaigu doesn't care about the eyes of the people around him
Gu Zi looked into the depths of the path, but he was anxiously thinking in his heart, "What about Yu Qin, why hasn't Yu Qin come out yet?"
Suddenly, he heard what seemed to be the voice of a woman screaming angrily not far away, breaking the quiet and ambiguous atmosphere. She shouted angrily, "You go away, don't stop me, I must ask the Fuyao Sect for an explanation today!"
The woman's voice trembled, and she was obviously angry with the sound of hurried footsteps.
Xu Huaigu only felt that this woman's voice was familiar, and then glanced at the figure running in the night, like a swift leopard, and after a few steps, he went to the ancestral hall, and went straight to the door angrily.
Everyone around was startled by the woman's demeanor and looked at the place. I saw that the woman was menacing, and she didn't take the ancestral hall at all
The elder at the door was in the eye and was about to break in.
Xu Huaigu was amazed in his heart, this person was really bold, with the guilt of trespassing on the Patriarch's Hall, if the doorkeeper was ruthless, it would not be wrong to kill her directly on the spot. After all, there are hundreds of natal soul lamps that can protect there, and if something goes wrong, the Fuyao Sect will have to lose most of its combat power.
Look at the appearance of the elder guarding the door, he is upright, jealous and hateful. Seeing that this woman was arrogant and unreasonable, he was about to break into the ancestral hall, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and the long sword in the sheath popped out quickly like a snake attacking, and he went down with a sword against her, without the slightest mercy.
The elder's actions also frightened Xu Huaigu, and he wanted to kill him without even asking, Xu Huaigu asserted that he definitely didn't have the courage.
The woman didn't seem to expect anyone to dare to stop her, let alone an elder who was going to kill her with a sword, and suddenly her body stopped in fright, and she froze in place, watching the sword slash at her with a frightened face.
At the moment when everyone in the audience was trembling, a golden light talisman flew out of the woods behind the woman, met the blade of the sword, and stopped the fatal sword for the woman.
Then, a white-robed old Taoist priest frowned, walked out of the woods angrily, and scolded the elder who drew his sword, "Do you know who is in front of you to dare to kill you? If something happens to her, you'll look good!"
The elder who took out the sword was upright and awe-inspiring, and said with a clear eye: "Trespassing into the ancestral hall of the sect, according to the rules, is death, and the old man is not at fault for taking out the sword, even if it is Her Royal Highness the princess today."
The old Taoist was so angry that he shook the dust, pointed at his nose and scolded, "You still know that this is Her Royal Highness the Princess!" Wouldn't it be nice to stop her, what do you insist on killing people!"
The elder still didn't back down, and said, "According to the rules of the sect, she wants to die, if I stop her and don't kill her, then next time if a disciple violates this rule, how can the Fa be able to convince the public?"
The old Taoist priest looked at him fiercely, his teeth chattered, and said, "Your Highness, I tried all kinds of good words to persuade you not to listen, you insisted on going to other people's ancestral halls, and there were no rules at all. It's a good joke now!"
Chu Xiuyang grew up in the palace since she was a child, and everyone had to be polite to her, so she developed her pampered temper. Who knew that on this night, someone would dare to kill her with such a sword.
She was only nineteen years old, and when she walked around the ghost gate, she was so frightened that her soul was gone, and she couldn't say a word with a white face.
The old Taoist priest stepped forward angrily and grabbed her cuffs and said, "Let's go!"
Chu Xiuyang was so aggrieved that he cried out all of a sudden, standing in place and refusing to leave, complaining and crying, "Did I make a big mistake, and someone wants to kill me? Woo
Whining...... I just saw that woman's pity, and I wanted to find an explanation for her, you Fuyao Sect will kill me, what a big sect that covers the sky with one hand! Woo woo woo ...... "
Xu Huaigu and the women who had returned from the bath all stopped and watched. Although Xu Huaigu felt that the elder was too ruthless, he also thought that he was reasonable, and the women around him were also chattering, some people said that the elder was too harsh, and some people said that Chu Xiuyang deserved it.
Chu Xiuyang was crying, tears blurred his eyes, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the crowd of watchers, quickly wiped away his tears, saw that it was Xu Huaigu, and cried and begged: "Brother Yu, you come to judge, the woman who knelt under the plaque today for a day is not pitiful, should Fuyao Sect give an explanation!"
At this moment, the eyes of the audience were focused on him again.
Xu Huaigu scratched his head, this guy just dragged him into the water? even called him Brother Yu affectionately, if this reaches other people's ears and is heard by Yu Qin, then it will be worth it?
Xu Huaigu was blessed to the heart, he smiled, and said with a hippie smile, "This girl, do we know each other? You shouldn't recognize the wrong person, not to mention that my surname is Xu, not Yu, or you can ask Yin Zishi, he will know that my surname is Xu."
It was very dark, she had just cried again, her eyes were still vague, Chu Xiuyang really thought that she had admitted her mistake, so she ran to him, looked at it carefully, and cried even more with a "wow", and said, "What is Yin Yin, what is real, it is obviously you!"
I'm still with you this morning, and now you don't know me, dead liar!"
She cried and made trouble and hanged herself, and she didn't care about anything, she simply raised her fist and hit him.
The little girl was crying softly, her fists couldn't be used, she knocked several times, it didn't hurt at all, and in the eyes of others, it seemed to be flirting with Xu Huaigu, and suddenly the people around looked at them with smiles.
Chu Xiuyang would think that he recognized the wrong person, the old Taoist priest in a white robe would not, he could see at a glance that it was Xu Huaigu, and at this time, he saw Chu Xiuyang rolling on him, it was really a loss of royal majesty, so he strode forward and persuaded: "Please Your Highness must respect yourself, and go back with me quickly!"
Chu Xiuyang turned back to the old Taoist priest and shouted, "What is self-respecting, I am crying like this, and you are still helping outsiders to speak!" Woowoo...... I'm going to tell my father about your case when I go back!"
The old Taoist priest shook his head with a bitter face, very helpless.
She suddenly turned her head to look at Xu Huaigu, choked back tears, and said solemnly, "Let me tell you, that person named Jiang Linyang is a stubborn man, and he gave the woman money, and he wanted to send her back. If you don't have any thoughts in your heart, what's the use of asking for that money? No one from the Fuyao Sect came forward for her, she is now on the cliff, and she is going to find a way to die!"
Chu Xiuyang turned around suddenly, angrily pointed at the crowd around him, and scolded while pointing, "If that woman dies, you, you, and you!" All of them were the ones who killed her! Won't your conscience be pained?"
"Can you have a clear conscience by standing by and watching? You immortal cultivators can do it, but I Chu Xiuyang can't do it!"
Xu Huaigu looked at her in amazement.
How can I have a clear conscience.
After she finished scolding, she flicked her sleeves angrily, turned around and walked down the mountain, and said, "Go!"
Chu Xiuyang followed the old Taoist priest and hurriedly left the Changyue Peak where the Ancestral Hall was located, and hid in the night.
