Chapter Twenty-Three: The Predecessors Have Taken My Look, and I Have Followed the Latter

And the little girl was like ashes, looking at Bai Yujing coldly, without saying a word.

Pei Santian leaned back in his chair and said, "Do you know them?" ”

Bai Yujing said: "Know." ”

Pei Santian beckoned and motioned for the little girl to come over, the little girl lowered her head, looked at the blood stains all over her body, and still didn't say a word.

Pei Santian said: "Her name is Sun Chenglan, she is the daughter of the previous head of the Hanging Mountain, Yu Xuzi, she is nine years old this year, and when I found her, she was outside the Hanging Mountain Absolute Room." And inside there is the secret of the Hanging Mountain, called the Corpse Slave Seal, and there is another person inside, named Xue Can. ”

Bai Yujing clenched his fists and looked at him in disbelief.

Pei Santian continued: "You may not believe that a nine-year-old girl burned down the Hanging Mountain in order to take revenge. ”

"Is Xue Can dead?" Bai Yujing immediately asked.

Pei Santian didn't answer, but looked at Sun Chenglan and asked, "Have you taken revenge?" ”

Sun Chenglan nodded, "Report." ”

Pei Santian pointed at Bai Yujing and said, "Why don't you kill him?" ”

Sun Chenglan glanced at Bai Yujing and said: "He punished my father's mistakes, my father is wrong, naturally someone must punish him, he is a red-clothed envoy, and he has the right to punish in his hands, I believe him." ”

Bai Yujing felt that his throat was choked, and this suffocating feeling actually came from a nine-year-old girl.

He stared into those sincere eyes, and there was not the slightest hint of dodging in them, and the words seemed to be her heartfelt thoughts.

Pei Santian waved his hand and motioned for Sun Chenglan to leave, and the little girl was also very obedient and turned her head to leave.

At this point, there were only three people left on it.

Pei Sandian was inhumane: "She will be my goddaughter in the future." ”

Bai Yujing was apprehensive in her heart, but her face was calm, "Do you think she really thinks so?" It's just your threat, isn't it? ”

Pei Santian shook his head: "Threats are always the last resort, only those who have reached the peak of power or strength can use it effectively, and I am not qualified for this." I just want to tell you that there are many things in this world that people can testify to, such as the apprentice of the Hanging Mountain, and the daughter of Yu Xuzi, they can all prove that what I said is true and what you say is false. ”

Bai Yujing said: "No one cares about the truth? ”

Pei Santian said: "Of course some people care, so we have to find out the truth, but to make other people, such as the people, believe that this is the truth is a complicated and lengthy process, in this case, why not save some effort and let them believe in an illusion, this illusion is enough for those who don't care." ”

Bai Yujing leaned back in his chair and was silent.

Pei Santian said: "Sun Chenglan put a fire in the hiding room, but that fire did not burn her enemy to death, and when I went, Xue Can was no longer there." ”

Bai Yujing said: "She doesn't know? ”

Pei Santian smiled: "Of course she must know, not only to know, but also to understand that Xue Can will come to take her life at any time, only in this way can she have the motivation to continue to live and the motivation to take revenge." ”

He continued: "And this Miss Lin also has the motivation to live, she just escaped from death, if it weren't for the elixir that the master gave her to renew her life when she was dying, she would have become Xue Can's soul under the knife at this time." ”

Bai Yujing said: "Why are you telling me about this? ”

Pei Santian stretched out his hand and said: "I want you to understand what power is, what power is, you want to become a sword immortal, that is absolute power, and I have absolute power in my hands, do you understand what power is, what power is?" ”

Bai Yujing didn't answer, he might be able to say one, two, three, but he understood that his perception would never be as deep as the prefect in front of him.

Pei Santian said: "Your strength can kill Yu Xuzi, and you can also kill Xue Can and a series of people who make you unhappy." ”

He smiled slightly: "But my power can allow any of them to continue to live." ”

Bai Yujing said: "Why do you want them to live? ”

Pei Santian said: "Because they live, the people can live, and if the people live, I can live better and continue to enjoy my supreme power." ”

Bai Yujing said: "They have the blood of hundreds of people in their hands!" ”

Pei Santian said: "Yes, but behind them, there is still the hope of hundreds of people, if one day, you have enough power, can give them the strength to fight against everything, you can do anything without weighing the pros and cons, do not have to give up some lives in exchange for others." ”

Bai Yujing stared at him and said slowly, "I always feel that something is wrong. ”

Pei Santian said: "What's wrong?" ”

Bai Yujing said: "Since I picked up this sword, there are always many people who want to teach me some truths in a short period of time, the elder of the Hanging Mountain, even if my sword has pierced his chest, he still wants to teach me something." ”

Pei Santian said: "Isn't it? ”

Bai Yujing said: "Why? ”

Pei Santian said: "You don't understand? ”

Bai Yujing said: "What's special is this sword, right?" ”

Pei Santian stood up and looked out of the house, his gaze was fixed in one direction, as if that direction was important to him, this time, his voice was solemn and respectful enough, "A hundred generations are chivalrous, born from a young guest." My predecessor was like me, and I was like the latecomer. ”

He turned around and walked out, looked back and smiled: "When you walk out of Fenyang City, don't mention everything that happened here, if there is anything you don't understand in the future, it will be up to you." ”

Bai Yujing stood up and said in a loud voice: "I don't understand why you are like this, whose favor have I received?" Who has given you favor, and what does it have to do with me? Why are you like that? Could it be true of what you say? The predecessors took a picture of you, and you took a picture of me? Can...... Why me? ”

Pei Santian did not answer, but clenched the lion's head in his hand, closed his eyes, and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Bai Yujing's question was unanswered, and his gaze fell on Lin Xiyue's face.

Lin Xiyue walked over, stood beside him, bowed her head and said, "Hanging Mountain, it will be mine in the future." ”

This matter actually had nothing to do with Bai Yujing, and he didn't understand why Lin Xiyue came to talk to him about it.

Lin Xiyue said: "I'm sorry. ”

Bai Yujing said: "You don't have anything to be sorry for me, what you do has nothing to do with me." ”

Lin Xiyue's face was much more restrained, and she took a deep breath and said, "I may be able to help you answer your doubts." ”

Bai Yujing did not speak.

Lin Xiyue said: "You and I both grew up around Fenyang City, let me ask you one thing, have you ever worshiped the Buddha?" ”

Bai Yujing said with a smile: "There is no temple in Fenyang City, what Buddha do you worship?" ”

Lin Xiyue said: "Then have you worshiped God?" ”

Bai Yujing was puzzled: "There are no statues of gods in Fenyang City, there are no Buddha statues, even what you worship in the Hanging Mountain is only a sword, this matter is well known to the people of the city, and everyone only worships the sword immortal." ”

Lin Xiyue said: "Ten years ago, Pei Sanye had the opportunity to enter the court and be promoted to Lin'an Kyoto City, but why did he stay for another ten years? ”

She was still saying: "Even if there is no immortal temple in other cities, there should be a tablet of the God of Wealth, but in Fenyang City, why is there only one Sword Immortal Temple?" ”

Bai Yujing was stunned.

At this moment, he figured it out, but he couldn't.

The sword in the sword fairy's hand, why did he give it to him?

I don't know how long it took, but he was the only one left in this room.

The moonlight shone obliquely through the room, with a slight shimmer and breeze.

Bai Yujing felt some itching next to his collar, and when he came back from his daze, he saw the dragon beard grass with nine leaves, nine flowers and nine whiskers standing on his shoulder.

It was top-heavy, and it was difficult for him to stand firm with flowers and plants, but the fleshy "face" at the root below was very dignified, and two very sloppy arms were caressing the part of his jaw or belly, thinking about something.

Bai Yujing asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Long Xucao said: "Because I feel that you are going to leave the Hanging Mountain, I will lie on your body and walk with you." ”

Bai Yujing exclaimed: "You want to go with me?" ”

Long Whisker Grass nodded: "Yes, otherwise?" ”

Bai Yujing said: "You...... Can you live if you are not in the land? ”

"So you have to find a piece of soil for me to burrow into, so that I can not only survive, but also continue to grow more dragon's beard grass." ”

Bai Yujing looked at it blankly, "How can you be sure that I must take you?" ”

The dragon beard grass put his hands on his cheeks or waist, in short, it was his only face, and he said solemnly: "The dragon beard grass I bred can break the pulse and continue to live, I am so smart that I can give you advice, and you can still eat me to fake my death at a critical moment, and then pull me out and everything will be fine, I can be reused, it is simply beneficial and harmless, why don't you take me with you?" Could it be that my hanging hero is a fool? ”

Bai Yujing said: "I'm not a stupid person. ”

Long Xucao said: "Isn't that the end?" Let's go find some dirt, I'm going to suffocate!" ”

Sure enough, the big round head was already suffocated red.

Bai Yujing went downstairs at this time, took the embroidered handkerchief next, grabbed a handful of soil, and then let the dragon beard grass get into it, wrapped it and put it in his arms.

It was not early, no one was waiting for him outside the door, maybe the embroidered envoys had returned to Huayue Tower, so he set off immediately, but his destination was not Huayue Tower, but the Sword Immortal Temple.

Since you are leaving, you have to say your final goodbye.

The incense of the Sword Immortal Temple has always been very good, even at night, there are special people to clean it here, and there are also people here to pray for incense.

Bai Yujing is most familiar with this ancestral hall, he has been here countless times, he has come to pray in front of this tablet, and when his mother was sick, he also came to ask for a lot.

Everyone knows that coming to the Sword Immortal Temple to pray is the most effective, and people from all over the country will also come here to offer incense and kneel down.

Bai Yujing respectfully took three sticks of incense, kowtowed and bowed.

The words of Bai Hanshan at that time sounded in his ears.

"Don't be me, surpass me, be poor and strong, and don't fall into the clouds."

Bai Yujing closed his eyes.

I will.
