Volume 1: The Fisherman's Lang Chapter 54: The Hall of Young Eagles
Duanmu Lengyue returned to her room, her mind couldn't calm down for a long time, and she didn't know why her aunt's look when she mentioned that name always lingered in her mind, and that gentleness was heartwarming.
The second is my aunt's decision this time, there may be a lot of people who will die, and a lot of their relatives will die, and the old faces in the hall today are the real backbone of the gods and religions that have not fallen down for so many years, and when they return to the moon platform, I don't know how many people they can see again.
So she really can't let go of it.
"Yue'er. β
"Auntie!"
Duanmu Lengyue hurriedly opened the door and welcomed Duanmu Katsuo into the house.
"I know you have a lot of questions for me, and you are also a good and filial boy, and you must not want to leave at this time, so I came to talk to you. β
Duanmu Leng Yue said with a guilty face:
"Let my aunt worry about it, Yue'er is really useless. β
"Actually, it's nothing, I was younger than you when I took over the Divine Cult, although I was very naughty when I was a child, I never liked female red, and I preferred to play crazy with a few boys in the hall today, but in fact, I know that I don't have a lot of courage, and I remember that the rabbit raised at home died I remember being sad for a long time, and at that time those boys were also let me, I naively thought that my courage had become very big, until one day I sat in your position today, and there was a friend when I was a child, who made an unforgivable mistake, and he actually secretly passed on the internal skills of the Mochizuki Treasure Book to a foreign friend of his, and my mother, that is, the previous sect leader, asked me to kill him with the Guilty Moon Knife with my own hands. β
Duanmu Lengyue nodded and said: "I heard the old man in the sect say that the person who made the mistake is called Duanmu Nan, and he has a very good relationship with your aunt, and he is talented and smart, and he learns everything quickly, even Grandpa Li, the Dragon King, is ashamed of himself." β
Duanmu Katsuo let out a long breath and sighed, "Yes! He is indeed too good, if it weren't for the canons there, I myself think he is more suitable to be the sect leader, and even many esoteric exercises in the Mochizuki Treasure Book can draw inferences, my aunt will naturally think of asking him when there is a problem with cultivation at that time, he is still a little good, he is naturally playful, and he does not have any utilitarian heart, and he never interferes in the affairs of the church, so he helps me every time without concealment, usually up and down the mountain and down the river, only he takes care of me as a girl and I will not be angry, such a person, actually asked me to kill with my own hands, so I found out at that time that I was actually very scared and afraidγ β
When she said this, Duanmu Lengyue found that her uncle, who had been unruly all her life, her hands were trembling slightly, and she hurriedly squatted down and held it gently, but she felt that her hands were so cold.
After a slight pause, Duanmu Katsuo took a sip of water before continuing in a quiet tone: "People's hearts are actually born soft, but if you choose to embark on a path to become a strong man, and choose to carry the hopes and even lives of countless people on your shoulders, you must make your heart hard!"
"At that time, I knelt on the ground and begged my mother, every time I said a word, I was slapped by my mother, in fact, I was not afraid at the time, and even a little happy, as long as my mother was not angry, could I let go of Brother Nan?"
"However, until my face was swollen and I couldn't see my mother's appearance clearly, my mother still refused to let go, then Brother Nan suddenly held my shoulder and said to me, sister, you have to remember, if you do something wrong, no matter who you are, you should be punished, you are the leader of the sect, so you should not intercede for me, and he does not regret it, that friend is worthy of him to do that, he is still in the mood to smile at me, and even sang the song of the five unique reeds, I just shook my head desperately, who knew that at this time my mother came to me and told me that there is a punishment in the sect that can make life worse than death, if I don't do it, your brother Nan can only go to receive another punishmentοΌβ
Duanmu Lengyue covered her mouth and exclaimed: "A hundred swords and a hundred Gu?"
As the name suggests, this is a vicious punishment invented in the Slanting Moon Sect to punish the unforgivable sins of the cultists, piercing one hundred and eight important acupuncture points on the body, and putting a kind of bone devouring Gu, they will slowly gnaw away the bones of the whole body of the person who was treated within ten days, so that the tortured person is worse than death, and the pain is not to live.
"When Brother Nan heard this punishment, I saw fear on his face for the first time! He begged me to give him a knife, but I couldn't do anything, so Brother Nan was executed with a hundred knives and a hundred Gu, and I hid in the room for two days without going out, and my ears were full of Brother Nan's miserable screams. β
"On the third day, my mother asked me to go to the altar of the moon worship platform, I had to go over, and I saw Brother Nan kneeling in front of the moon god with his head hanging down from a distance, only two days, his hair has fallen out, all his teeth are broken, the whole person has shrunk a circle compared to the original, and the bone devouring Gu can be clearly seen drilling around under the skin, but he is still awake and alive, and he tried to open his mouth after seeing me, but he couldn't make a sound!"
When Duanmu Lengyue heard this, she suddenly felt that the cold sweat on her back kept coming out, and her aunt's voice suddenly became erratic.
"But I understand what Brother Nan said! He was begging me to help him and stop him from being tortured anymore! At that moment, I was suddenly not afraid, I picked up his Shame Moon Knife and stabbed him in the chest nine times in a row, until he didn't move at all, after that incident, I no longer had any hesitation in all matters in the sect, and sometimes I even felt that our canons were too lenient. β
Speaking of this, Duanmu Katsunan stopped, looked at Duanmu Lengyue expressionlessly, and suddenly asked, "If someone really threatens Yu'er's life one day, do you think you will still be merciful?"
Duanmu Lengyue was shocked in her heart.
"Although your grandfather listened to your orders and took the opportunity of visiting Shenyue Ling to take Yu'er away from the whirlpool of right and wrong very early, but do you think the enemy will not know about your weaknesses?
Duanmu Lengyue was suddenly quiet, and after a while, he smiled with a somewhat reluctant smile:
"Auntie, you're right, I understand what to do in the future. Thank you for your teachings. β
Duanmu Shengnan touched Leng Yue's head lovingly, and said kindly: "You are not an ordinary woman, you can be kind, but you can't be merciful, the Han people have a saying that Ci is not in charge of the soldiers, it is very good, it is very good, in the past few years, after you took over the Oblique Moon Sect, most of the things that your aunt has done are satisfied, so you can rest assured that you will leave this kind of thing to your aunt to do, originally this nail was buried by my aunt herself." β
Duanmu Lengyue wanted to say something, but when she saw her aunt's eyes, the words that came to her mouth were still not spoken.
"The King of Qi and several princes have formed an alliance to trap Luoyang, and the new Mu King Li Xiubai is just Chen Bing Beijiang, do you know why Luoyang can hold out for so long?"
"The problem is within the allied princes?"
Duanmu Shengnan patted the back of Leng Yue's hand and said with a smile: "This is the reason why you can take over the Divine Sect, many people think that Luoyang is not broken because of the Shepherd King, in fact, whether it is the temples in the world, the rivers and lakes, they are all for a good word, including our Divine Sect, isn't it the same reason? They also want to get greater benefits in the Divine Sect, and even fantasize about breaking their wrists with the King of Qi after the unification of the Divine Cult, but they can hurt the foundation of our Duanmu family by unscrupulous means in order to achieve their goals, which is very undeserved, so they must die this time!"
Duanmu Lengyue nodded and said: "He also ignored a problem, the Duanmu family and the Leaning Moon Sect are not only the bloodline of Duanmu's family, the Li family, the Lu family, the Qin family, the Yang family, and the Dongfang family, which has been in obscurity for so many years, are all princes who originally dominated one side in the 100,000 mountains, what we have to do is to balance everyone's interests, and unite to make the King of Qi jealous of us, and even afraid of us, because the Han people's words that are not of our race must have different hearts, and we also believe it." β
Duanmu Katsunan nodded and praised: "You can say this, my aunt can be regarded as completely relieved, go down the mountain early tomorrow morning, remember, the Eagle Hall of the Moon Worship Platform must be firmly held in your hand, this is the foundation of the Future God Sect, and it is also the best place you have done in the past few years." β
The Eagle Hall of the Moon Worship Platform, a place where the young eagles spread their wings and flew out, has always been only qualified to enter by the best and most loyal children of the major families, and all the advanced martial arts recorded in the Mochizuki Treasure Book can be learned there.
"This time down the mountain, you can travel more in the rivers and lakes, you can have about two to three years, as much as possible to accumulate some experience in the rivers and lakes, the Han people have a lot of things worth learning and thinking about, the things in the sect are supported by me and a bunch of old bones, there is no big mess, and when you come back, I will definitely hand you a clean new God Sect!"
"In addition, after finding the young man named Lu Yi in Grandpa's mouth, remember to ask the place where the bones of the two envoys on the left and right are buried, and let them return to their hometowns, they are all good men of the Duanmu family!
Duanmu Leng Yue nodded and wrote it down.
"You go down the mountain, I have only one request!"
Duanmu Katsuo's face suddenly turned cold.
"You are the most emotional at your age, don't easily give your true feelings to the people you meet, you have to remember that you are the future backbone of the Duanmu family, and you are also the leader of the Divine Sect!"
Seeing Duanmu Shengnan who was about to go out, Duanmu Lengyue had a question in his mind that suddenly popped up, and blurted out a question: "Auntie, can you tell me about that Mu Ge?"
Duanmu Katsunan, who had just pushed open the door, was slightly stunned, groaned for a moment and turned around to sit down again, his face was a little dazed.
"That was a long, long time ago! Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you, because when you go down the mountain this time, you will definitely meet all kinds of men in the rivers and lakes, such as Lu Yi, who your grandfather is full of, and I hope you will not repeat the mistakes of your aunt. β
"Maybe few people remember now that the Mu family was actually a not weak tribe in the 100,000 mountains. β
Duanmu Katsuo's first sentence surprised Leng Yue.
At this moment, Duanmu Fang's cough came from outside the door.
Duanmu Katsuo was not surprised at all, and ordered:
"You came just in time, you can go and call Brother Li and them again, maybe he still remembers some of the past. β
"Girl, we're here. β
Duanmu Fang, Li Kangtian, Lu Tong, Qin Chong, and Yang Pu walked in.
"I know you're not going to be sent away so easily, so sit down. β
Duanmu Shengnan had a smile on his face, and quipped in a dark and gentle voice: "The eight demon kings who gave the Taishang Dharma Protector a headache in the Eagle Hall back then, there is one less Tiger King and Dongfang Qiang. β
Several old people in the room showed a trace of remembrance and smiles.
Qin Chong opened his mouth and said, "There is one less who is the most tough and one who is the most honest. β
Duanmu Shengnan nodded and said: "Yes, the Tiger King is the strongest, otherwise he would not have exchanged palms with Pu Er knowing that his skills are invincible, in order to prove that the Moon Gazing Treasure Book in the clan is not weaker than the Wuxiang Brahma Decision, and Dongfang Qiang is the most honest, so after the Eagle Hall went out, he went back to the 100,000 Mountains to guard his tribe with peace of mind." β
Yang Pu smiled and said, "If Elder Taishang is still alive, I don't know if he will be so angry that the sect leader will blow his beard!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
Li Kangtian asked: "Sister just said that the original Mu family, is it the Mu family that was exterminated more than sixty years ago?"
Duanmu Katsuo nodded.
"Mu Ge's parents happened to be running errands in Lingnan when that incident happened, so they escaped the catastrophe, and Mu Ge should be the only surviving bloodline of the Mu family now. β
Li Kangtian sighed and said, "No wonder he is deliberately approaching you." β
Duanmu Katsuo said faintly: "I prefer to believe that it was really just a chance encounter. β
