Chapter 38, The Incompetent
No matter how reluctant he was, Ah Bao had to face the fact that Shu Shu was leaving.
At this time, Xiao Mengbao grabbed the placket on Shu Shu's chest and cried sadly in her arms.
"Shushu, don't go. Don't leave Po behind. ”
Shu Shu kept comforting the injured baby: "Ah Bao, when Xue Ya comes back, you will be able to see me again~"
"Woo wow wow~ Xue Ya is gone, he is a bad person. ”
"Yes, yes, he's a bad person, I'll teach him a lesson for you when he comes back. ”
Ah Bao cried, did he teach Xue Ya a lesson? But he was so good to me......
"Forget it, Po is a kind baby. Ah Bao came out of Shu Shu's arms, and his nose twitched.
"That's it...... Forgive him this time. If so, if there is a next time, hit him. The little fists were clenched, and it looked like they were going to hit someone.
His happy appearance washed away some of the gloom in Shu Shu's heart. She squeezed his little fist amusefully.
"Well, Po is a kind little baby. ”
If there is really anyone in this world who can't give up, Shu Shu thinks, it's this little baby.
Three days later, the Feather Gate.
All the disciples and elders of the Flying Feather Sect gathered and stood on the square waiting for the head of the sect to speak.
The crowd was noisy and shouting, all talking about the head of his house that had disappeared for months and suddenly appeared.
"The boss is here. I don't know who shouted, and the crowd that was still noisy just now instantly fell silent.
I saw a man in Tsing Yi walking slowly at the corner on the right, and immediately attracted the attention of the audience, and it was Xue Ya.
Xue Ya walked to the top of the steps and stood still, turned around, and glanced at all the disciples of the Flying Feather Sect.
"I haven't been in the door for the last few months, and I don't know how broken the feather gate has been. "The first sentence, if nothing else, is to talk about the current situation of the Flying Feather Gate.
"How I admired you in the past, I am disappointed in you today. ”
In just two sentences, the disciples below had already bowed their heads in shame. However, there are always two thorns.
Ah Yu, yes, that's right, it's still the disciple who escaped from the clutches of the Li Sa Sect who was protected by his senior brother all the way, and he spoke out unconvinced.
"Why are you disappointed in us, the current situation is clearly caused by you. ”
Xue Ya's gaze shifted to him: "Then you can tell me how I caused all this?"
The disciple's eyes were sad and joyless at Shang Xue Ya, and he suddenly felt a little weak, but he was right, yes, yes.
"Master, the disciple dares to ask you, did you kill the four elders of the Li Sa Sect?"
"Yes. ”
"Did the Li Sa Sect wantonly kill my disciples because of this?"
"Yes. ”
"Were you not there when you were in trouble?"
"Yes. ”
"And how are you not to blame for it all?"
After listening to these questions, Xue Ya couldn't help laughing.
"Then let me ask you a few words, and all the Flying Feather Sect disciples present. ”
"I, Xue Ya, am I the head of the Flying Feather Sect?"
The disciples looked at each other, not understanding why he asked such a question. saw Xue Ya's eyes sharp, and he shouted.
"Isn't it?"
All the disciples reflexively replied in unison, "Yes." ”
"Are you under the protection of your boss?"
"Yes. ”
"Then why don't you protect the boss?"
Everyone was silent, they were all protected parties, and they never thought about how to give back.
Xue Ya didn't wait for them to answer, and then asked.
"Have you ever killed anyone?"
"Yes. ”
"Are you being sought for revenge?"
"Yes. ”
"Then why are you standing here in such a dignified manner? Did you cultivate so well that you killed the enemy? Or did you kneel down and beg for mercy and won the enemy's forgiveness?"
"No, you are standing here dignifiedly, but because you are the disciples of the Feiyu Sect, but because you are the people who are protected by my Xue Ya. ”
For more than 100 years, he Xue Ya has protected the disciples of the Flying Feather Sect everywhere, and he has done it himself, just to raise them into waste.
As early as when he Xue Ya became the first person to correct the Dao, he knew that Feiyumen, without him, was nothing.
"Then why do you enjoy my protection, but do not face the storm I bring? ”
"In this world, you have always come and gone. Enjoy the comfort I bring, and be ready to be pulled into the vortex by me. ”
"I mourn in silence for the disciples who died, who died in the whirlpool. Also for ...... like you."
He looked at Ah Yu with a calm gaze, but forced Ah Yu not to look directly: "I also feel sorry for a disciple who is as incompetent and ruthless as you." ”
"Tell me again, why did you come back alive among the senior brothers?"
"I ...... I...... It was my brother who protected me. He replied, and his steps couldn't stop backing.
"In this way, you only survived because of the protection of others. Then why, didn't you cut off and protect them back?"
His eyes were red, and he tried to argue: "No, no, I ......" He tried to tell the reason, but found that all explanations were pale.
Why did he come back alive? Obviously, he was the one who was injured, and Mingming was the one with a better chance of escaping.
Everything, just because, he, is used to being "protected".
Xue Ya didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned his head and continued.
"The first faction of the Flying Feather Sect is cultivated, and without me Xue Ya, this is what it looks like?"
"I can't keep the door of my house, blame me alone? Feiyumen has raised you for so many years, and you can't even guard the door of your house, what kind of face do you have to question me?"
"At least I, Xue Ya, have guarded the Flying Feather Gate for more than a hundred years, and I have a clear conscience!!"
"I would like to ask, have you never been faced with a sword, and why do you keep flinching in the face of the sharp blade of the Li Sa Sect?"
He didn't wait for them to answer, and gave the answer directly: "It's just because I, Xue Ya, am not here." ”
The disciples drank like a stick, and they were terrified when they thought about it.
Indeed, Xue Ya's absence, the news that Xue Ya might suffer, bit by bit, eroded their confidence, and they had been repeatedly retreating because of uneasiness in the confrontation with the Li Sa Sect.
It turned out that the irritability and restlessness in the past few months were really just because the head was not there.
Looking at the thoughtful expressions of many disciples, Xue Ya knew that the effect he wanted had been achieved.
But it wasn't enough, he needed to stir up their guilt.
"I have protected you for more than a hundred years. And you ......"
"Where were you when I was hunted down?"
"Where are you when my life hangs by a thread?"
"It's my ability to come back alive. ”
Xue Ya chuckled lightly, looking down at the group of disciples, full of disdain and ridicule.
"You live hard, it's your incompetence. ”
There was silence in the audience, and no one said anything more.
Their lives are too comfortable, and the long-term comfort makes them forget that the place they are in is the cultivation realm. The cultivation realm where killing people and grabbing treasures is really common, and losing their lives for no reason is as common as drinking water, and the cultivation realm where people will die anytime and anywhere, and there are dangers all the time.
They were wrong, they lost the fighting spirit that a monk should have.
Not only the disciples, but also all the elders suddenly opened their minds like an initiation.
They are of the same generation as Xue Ya, and they have experienced much more hardships than the current disciples of the Flying Feather Sect. Where do you not understand what Xue Ya means.
can think about why it ended up like this, the key is still in Xue Ya.
Xue Ya, it's too good for them. In the face of the wind and rain, he protected all the disciples under his wings, so that they did not get enough experience.
But they can't say that Xue Ya is wrong, it was they who chose a more comfortable life, do they want to blame Xue Ya for providing you with a very good environment? He can't do it on purpose.
Sorry, but on purpose.
From the moment he was forced to succeed as the head of the house, Xue Ya was playing a big game of chess.
"Xue Ya, you are the most capable and outstanding disciple in this sect. Only when you inherit the position of the head of the sect, can the Flying Feather Gate go further and be more brilliant. ”
Master's explanation was still lingering in his ears, and Xue Ya couldn't, so he took over this big burden under Master's pleas and coercion. At that time, he was thinking about the smiling woman day and night, was she still waiting for him to go back?
has been waiting, but only waiting for the news of the succession of head Xue, she must be very disappointed.
Okay, didn't I mean that I was the only one who could lead the Flying Feather Gate to a more glorious step? He Xue Ya had spent more than a hundred years doing it.
From then on, Xue Ya is the representative and benchmark of the human cultivation world, as long as he is in one day, Feiyumen can ensure one day of prosperity.
But he never said he would always be here.
Raising the Flying Feather Gate is his greatest revenge. The entire Flying Feather Gate is a frog he boiled in warm water, and it will fall to the point where it is today, but sooner or later.
It's just that this day came a little early.
The depth of Xue Ya's hearts is something that no one expected, and they can't see through it for the rest of their lives.
After saying such sarcastic reprimands, Xue Ya's tone suddenly slowed down again.
"Admittedly, it's my responsibility to fall into such a situation. I also have a responsibility to regain the prestige of the Flying Feather Gate. ”
Yes, even if he plans to leave the scene, he has to set up a good persona. Xue Ya will never allow his reputation to be damaged. (smiles)
"I'm giving you a chance to prove to me that you're not waste. ”
"A month later, here, a great competition of the whole realm sects will be held. In my name, I send invitations to all sects. The top ten winners will be qualified for one year of cultivation in Yushuge. The top three will be divided into upper, middle and lower grade treasures and one upper, middle and lower grade of heaven-level exercises. ”
"I hope you don't let me down. ”
The Jade Book Pavilion is a place where only the elite disciples of the Flying Feather Sect can enter the Flying Feather Sect every year. There is an extremely powerful spirit gathering formation laid by the ancestor of the Flying Feather Gate inside, and cultivating in it is an extraordinary help to the monks.
Not to mention that the treasure weapon is the same as the Heavenly Rank Exercise, and a random release of one can attract a large number of red-eyed monks, how can the disciples in the Flying Feather Sect not be moved.
They were noisy and noisy and became a pot of porridge.
The elders were also dumbfounded, they didn't expect Xue Ya to be willing to give such a big courtesy.
Such a heavy bounty will definitely attract hundreds of sect disciples of all sizes to participate, and at that time, if the disciples of the Flying Feather Sect perform well in the big competition, and Xue Ya, the source of the rumors, has returned, the Flying Feather Sect will naturally be able to sweep away the negative news of the past and regain its leading position.
If you lose......
I have to say that Xue Ya's move is both an opportunity and a challenge.
