The next morning, due to the night rain, it was humid all around, but the air smelled very refreshing.

The teacher asked me to go and see her master, and she seemed to have something to say to me.

Her master is the first True Fruit Heavenly Master of the Third Peak, Luojia Mountain. Responsible for the security and protection of the perimeter of the Water God Palace. and the Pure Wisdom Heavenly Master of the Second Peak, one inner and one outer guardian of the Water God Palace.

The True Fruit Celestial Master lives on a large rock. In the gap between the stones, there is a thousand-year-old locust tree, which is shaped like a "welcome pine". The True Fruit Celestial Master sat on it.

I'm thinking, these masters are boring enough, they don't stay on the ground, but they have to climb there. I'm not afraid of falling down, is it because the terrain of the Water God Palace is not high enough?

I counted them, and there were five stones in total, in the shape of a "snail shell", rising and standing. The True Fruit Heavenly Master is a big bald head. The complexion is very fair, and the eyebrows are very light, almost invisible. As a result, the whole face appears bare. She has a spherical chin, like a tumor, but this kind of cultivation should not have tumors on her body, it should be a physical characteristic. She was dressed in a gray and white cloth robe, and there was a white jade arm on her left hand side, which was probably left-handed.

She sat quietly on the futon, and when she saw me coming, her eyes opened slightly.

"Hello Heavenly Master," I stood in front of her.

She took a futon from behind her: "You just sit in front of me."

"Okay," I replied and sat down.

"I heard the painting poem say, you also have a bloody weapon, can you show it to the poor monk?"

"It was handed down by my grandfather," I said, handing her the Willow Leaf Sword.

The True Fruit Heavenly Master held the hilt of the sword in his left hand, put his fingers together with his right hand, and gently wiped it on the body of the sword. frowned and said: "This sword is extremely angry, I'm afraid it is not a mascot." Does it have a name?"

"It's called Willow Leaf Sword," I said.

"But the swordsman who killed Hammo with one man and one sword forty years ago?"

"I heard my father talk about it, and it should be it. ”

"That year, I was still a little girl, and I went to the first Water Moon Heavenly Master of the previous Three Peaks. I still remember the events of that year, but I felt that as soon as the willow wind passed, Elder Xuanyuan Huixin's beard was cut off in half. The heroes of the audience were all shocked by their swordsmanship. It's a pity that my master, Shuiyue Heavenly Master, didn't want to get involved too much in national disputes, so he only went for a day, and then came back early, and he didn't have the opportunity to see the heroic style. ”

She returned the sword to me and asked softly, "The hero is all right now." ”

"My grandfather died very young"

"Ah, alas. Why did you die?"

"I heard from my grandmother that it was probably because of the backlash of this sword. I said.

The True Fruit Heavenly Master fell into a long silence, looking at the white clouds in the sky like cotton wool. The lush leaves of the old locust tree cast mottled shadows on her face.

"But every thing that is sacrificed in blood hurts three points and destroys seven points. ”

"I heard the painting poem say, Heavenly Master, you also have a weapon of blood sacrifice. ”

"My blood sacrifice is not the same as ordinary people," the Celestial Master smiled slightly.

I thought to myself that blood sacrifice weapons, don't they all use their own blood to train weapons? Could there be other blood sacrifices?

True Fruit Heavenly Master said, "When I was in my mother's body, I also had a younger sister. My mother was ten months pregnant, and perhaps because she was not well nourished, my sister and I devoured each other's bodies in her to fight for the right to live. I think it was probably the cruelest thing in the world, and then my baby won out and swallowed her sister into her body. On the day she was born, she had a body that was part more than anyone else's. ”

When the True Fruit Heavenly Master spoke, his swollen chin went up and down, like the cheeks of a frog chirping. Unconsciously, my eyes were drawn to me.

"You probably saw my jaw too, and my sister was in it. ”

I was surprised, but I didn't know how to answer, so I chose to remain silent again.

"My Blood Sacrifice Is My Sister"

I thought to myself, as a Heavenly Master of the Water God Palace, how could you do such a cruel thing. Probably when I had this thought in my heart, my expression also changed, and I was all seen by the True Fruit Heavenly Master.

She didn't blame me, but smiled: "You must think that I am cruel and treat my sister as a blood sacrifice." It's hard to say, but it's very understandable. My sister's body has been one with me since I was born, and although I devoured her as a baby, I did not kill her. She was still alive after I was born. Still fighting every day, I already felt pain at this point, and she was just a wriggling piece of meat. I was tortured in every way for this, and life was worse than death. When my mother saw that she couldn't support me, she threw me to the disciples of the Water God Palace who came to the mainland to take in disciples. Then I bowed to the Water Moon Heavenly Master. In order to cure my strange illness, Master searched for people from all over the world for me, but they all said that they would kill my parasitic sister in order to save my life. My master has always been very opposed to killing, so with the consent of the Shoufeng Qingyan Heavenly Master, he began to let me practice blood sacrifices. With my sister's dantian as the vein of blood sacrifice. Nourish it with my blood. ”

I interjected, "I thought the Heavenly Master's blood sacrifice was the whisk of dust beside me. ”

The True Fruit Heavenly Master still smiled slightly, very gently: "That's why I said that my blood sacrifice is different from ordinary people. ”

"Isn't it taboo that the Heavenly Master practices blood sacrifices, and the Water God Palace is the first sect in the world?"

"People in the world say that blood sacrifices evil, not how it harms others and itself. It's just that it's weird to practice. I take my sister's dantian as the vein of blood sacrifice, although it is a blood sacrifice, in fact, it is a symbiosis between the two. My sister and I started fighting when my mother was pregnant, and the blood sacrifice was able to resolve the fight, so that the two of us could continue to cultivate for the sake of the same body, so I was much more convenient than ordinary people in terms of cultivation. ”

"What the Celestial Master said is reasonable, it's like everyone is standing and walking, and suddenly one day a person walks upside down, and everyone thinks he is very strange and looks at him as an anomaly. In fact, even if he walks away from him, he will not harm anyone. I think that as long as you don't hurt others in the world, you should be respected in everything you do. ”

"Well said, well said," she smiled, revealing her snow-white teeth.

"Heavenly Master, I have a little doubt, blood sacrifices have always hurt oneself. How did the Celestial Master resist the backlash of the Blood Sacrifice?"

"There are many things that can resist the backlash of blood sacrifices, that is, there are exercises and pills, and the elixir divine water is an excellent thing to suppress, and even some proprietary artifacts are OK, such as the ghost side mountain forest has a thousand-year-old ice bed, which can also inhibit the backlash in a short time. But there is one way to resist the best way to resist backlash. Titled: Mahayana Prajna Sutra. You've probably never heard the name. It is the highest cultivation method in the world, and it is called the supreme three methods in the world together with the Wuwei Sword Technique of the Bottomless Cliff Wine Sword Immortal, the Confucian Heaven and Earth and the Sutra. It's a pity that only Confucianism is still circulating in the world among these three major methods, and the Wuwei swordsmanship has long been lost, and there are only two descendants of the Mahayana Prajna Sutra so far, one is a half-edge Zen master, who is now the head of the five elders of the Republic, and the other is a Zen master in the middle of the mountain, which is said to have long been retired, and no one knows where he is going. Because the Shoufeng Qingyan Heavenly Master and the Banyuan Zen Master still have some friendship, he begged the Banyuan Zen Master to give me some fur from the Mahayana Prajna Sutra, so that I can use the divine water to suppress the backlash of the blood sacrifice. So far, he is in good health. I don't know how you suppressed the backlash of the blood sacrifice in your body, little brother?"

I didn't think she would ask this question all of a sudden, and I didn't like to be public, or because I had always been very self-defensive, so my first thought at the time was that I couldn't tell her that I was a disciple of the Zen master in the middle of the mountain, so I joked: "What is there to suppress, my grandfather died before sixty, and my father died before fifty, I don't think I can pass the forty level." Die early and die late, you have to die in life, why be afraid"

True Fruit Heavenly Master said angrily: "How can you say that, at a young age, you can learn to look down on life and death, that is something that only seventy or eighty people think." I still have five heavenly fragrant fruits, you take them first, and eat one when you have a backlash attack, which can help you relieve the pain. If you don't dislike me that this place is full of girls, stay here for a few more days, and I'll teach you some Mahayana Prajna sutras. It is also good to suppress the backlash of blood sacrifices. ”

I think Zhang Miao has always been tired of me, although it is not all because I ate one of her Tianxiang fruits, but I feel a little guilty about her, and I am still a little jealous. If she brought this heavenly fragrant fruit to her, she would say that her master was grateful to them for their merit in going down the mountain (although she didn't know what merit), and that she would give them one as a reward for each of them, and I could keep one for Zijun to eat at that time. I don't think Zhang Miao will be so tired of me, and Concubine Qin, painting poems, and teachers treat me very well, and I should give a little gift. So I took the fragrant fruit of the day. Who knew that he was put on a stand by the True Fruit Heavenly Master.

"But I asked you to come up for one thing. ”

"Heavenly Master, say it" I was really soft-mouthed and short-handed. I must have been very inadequate.

"I heard that you and the daughter of the Holy Maiden, Zijun are good friends. ”

"Well, I think something is wrong.

"It is rumored that Zijun is a rare pure yin physique, and he wants to run for the new saintess. However, I personally think that Zijun is not a disciple of the Water God Palace, if she becomes a saint, the disciples of the Water God Palace will definitely not want to, and they will definitely make things difficult in every possible way in the future. Moreover, most outsiders are not used to living in the Water God Palace, not to mention that Zijun is still studying outside. Once this saint is a virgin, it will take ten years to retire. At this time, the youth is long gone. ”

"Yes," I said, appreciating the True Fruit Heavenly Master's ability to see things so thoroughly.

"And I heard from the teacher, you don't want her to be elected as a saint?"

"Yes, she doesn't want to, and I don't want her to be a saint. ”

"I have a solution that can help you, and it's easy. ”

I saw the hope that I could save Zijun, so I asked, "Heavenly Master, you said." ”

"Since the creation of the Water God Palace, all the saints have not been married. It hasn't changed for dozens of generations, but as far as the Qingying Heavenly Master, she has a daughter. Although most of the sect are women, there is no rule that children cannot be born. In addition, the mother of the Qingying Heavenly Master, Yi Yan Gui, is the hero of my Water God Palace, and she once blocked the attack of the evil dragon with her own strength and protected the lives of hundreds of lives in the Water God Palace. So he didn't care about the fact that she was a saint but fell into the red dust. But the position of the Holy Maiden is the most important position in the Water God Palace. As soon as people enter the red dust, they can't help themselves, and they are bound by love and hatred. It is inevitable to do things that are not conducive to the Water God Palace. So now we have added a rule to the selected saints, you must break off love. If you want Zijun not to be a saint, the method comes from this. If you don't have the saint to come, if you do, you just need to tell her about your relationship with her when she performs the holy ceremony. Zijun will not be able to be selected as a saint."

"Heavenly Master, if I do this, won't I make Zijun lose face in front of everyone's eyes"

"You can rest assured that only the Seven Peaks Heavenly Master and the Holy Maiden of the previous generation will be present during the Holy Ceremony, and no one else will be present. ”

"If Zijun can't be elected as a saint because of this, will he be punished? ”

"In the name of my Heavenly Master, I assure you that she will be safe. And I'm going to get you off Antarctica. ”

This was too tempting for me, so I agreed to it. Take five heavenly fragrant fruits to find them to draw poems.

The scenery of the water shrine is very beautiful, my way down the mountain is a stone step, on both sides of the growth of patches of pale pink weeds, knee-length and long, spikes like a horsetail, can not be named, under the touch of the breeze, waves waves. In the distance, the sea of clouds locks the green mountains, and the ancient trees are blue and blue. The sky is as blue as a mirror, covering the four wilds, which is extraordinarily moving.

I watched it for a while, and suddenly thought that Zijun's mother wanted her daughter to be elected as a saint, and if I ruined her good deeds, I don't know how she would hate me. When the True Fruit Heavenly Master met me for the first time, could you believe what she promised me? If Zijun becomes a saint and she repents, what will she do? At that time, he couldn't save Zijun, but put his life into it. It really shouldn't. I thought about it and thought, I have to go and meet Zijun and think about it in the long run.
