Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Past
Xiaoyu said strangely, "Sister, what are you talking about?"
Tang Xin smiled slightly, "It's nothing, do you remember that my sister promised Sister Mingyue to help them do something?"
Xiaoyu nodded.
Tang Xin smiled lightly, "This 'letter' is your second brother who came to inform my sister, and I will go to help in a few days." ”
Xiaoyu let out an "oh", and didn't ask why someone was following Ye Xiaoer.
"When will my sister come back?"
"If it goes well, I'll be back in one day. ”
"Well, okay, I'll wait here for my sister to come back. Xiao Yu said with a smile.
"Oh, yes. Tang Xin rubbed Xiaoyu's head dotingly and replied with a smile.
......
Putting his eyes on a few hours ago, Ye Xiaoer handed over the information to Xiaoyu and wandered around Tanglin City for an hour before returning to the inn.
"How's that, did the information go? As soon as Ye Xiaoer entered the door, Mingyue stepped forward and asked.
Ye Xiaoer nodded, walked to the wooden table, picked up the teapot and drank it to his mouth.
"Whew, I'm tired. Putting down the teapot, Ye Xiaoer wiped the water stains on his mouth, and exhaled a long breath.
"The information has been handed over to Xiaoyu, and I hide it very well, and the guys in the Tsing Yi Gang can't see it. Ye Xiaoer recalled the scene at that time, and said, "Fortunately, Xiaoyu is smart and witty, and she cooperates well with me." ”
After speaking, Ye Xiaoer's gaze moved to the stack of thick paper in Mingyue's hand.
"This thing is ......"
Mingyue raised a yellowish piece of paper full of small characters in her hand and said, "This is a copy of the file of the Wind Patrol Division, not long after you left, Yue Lingtian came back and handed over these things to me." ”
Hearing this, Ye Xiaoer couldn't help but be a little curious, he took two steps forward and took a piece of paper from Mingyue's hand and looked down.
I saw a large text neatly written on the paper, which began:
"Tsing Yi Gang two masters Bai Jianghai people sent the nickname of the river ape is a first-class master of the year, although the martial arts he learned are not very profound, but he also lives up to the name of broken gold and jade. Compared with the kung fu in hand, the light skills he has learned are enough to be called the light skills of the world. Although he himself did not say what kind of mastery the light skill he cultivated, according to the investigation of the Wind Patrol Division, it is very likely that the light skill that Bai Jianghai learned is very likely to be the secret of the Manna Gang that has been destroyed by the White Lotus Sect many years ago - crossing the sea. ”
"Bai Jianghai became famous twenty years ago, when he and Nalan Heng uprooted the Black Tiger Village in Dongling, including the three first-class masters, more than 80 bandits in the whole village fell to the hands of the two of them......"
Putting the paper back in Mingyue's hand, Ye Xiaoer sighed in surprise, "I didn't expect these two to be good people who punished evil and promoted good?"
Mingyue put down a stack of thick paper, and after hearing Ye Xiaoer's words, she sneered and said, "It's right to punish evil, but it may not be for good." ”
When Ye Xiaoer heard this, he became interested again, "Oh?
Mingyue wanted to pour herself a glass of water, but as soon as she lifted the teapot, she found that it had been drunk by Ye Xiaoer's previous cow drink.
Shaking the empty teapot, Mingyue glanced at Ye Xiaoer obliquely.
Ye Xiaoer shrugged, so he had to go downstairs to ask the shopkeeper for another pot of tea.
Pouring a cup of tea for Mingyue, Ye Xiaoer said, "Let's talk about it now." ”
Mingyue took a sip of tea with satisfaction, and then continued: "You continue to look at that dossier and see what Nalan Heng and Bai Jianghai did after destroying the Black Tiger Village. ”
Ye Xiaoer had to retrieve the file that he had thrown before and continue to read it: "In the seventeenth year of the early Yuan Dynasty (the era name used by the previous emperor), Bai Jianghai killed the evil master 'Ghost Slaughter' who was wandering in Tanglin under his palm, and the two fought at that time...... In the eighteenth year of the early Yuan Dynasty, Nalan Heng and the Wind Patrol Division teamed up to arrest the remnants of the White Lotus Sect...... In the nineteenth year of the early Yuan Dynasty, Bai Jianghai and Nalan Heng swore a ...... In September of the same year, the two joined forces to lead everyone to defeat the three major bandit villages of Tanglin...... In the early 20th year of the Yuan Dynasty, Nalan Heng and Bai Jianghai established the Tsing Yi Gang. ”
At first, Ye Xiaoer's brows were slightly furrowed, but after reading it, he was already relaxed.
Looking at Ye Xiaoer's appearance, Mingyue smiled lightly, "How is it, do you see something." ”
Ye Xiaoer replied, "Since the establishment of the Tsing Yi Gang, they have not done anything to punish evil and promote good, at least it is recorded in this dossier. ”
Mingyue nodded, while drinking tea, and praised, "Yes, you're not stupid." What else can you think of besides what you see. ”
Ye Xiaoer stroked his chin lightly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "They used to punish evil and promote goodness just to improve their prestige, and promoting goodness is not their purpose at all, and punishing evil is only incidental to improving their prestige." After reaching a certain height of prestige, they chose to form a gang and formed the current Tsing Yi Gang. After becoming the leader of the Tsing Yi Gang and the second gang leader, they no longer need to work hard to improve their reputation. ”
Perhaps the original intention of Nalan Heng and Bai Jianghai to establish the Tsing Yi Gang was just to find a place for themselves, and the style of the Tsing Yi Gang at the beginning of its establishment was also praised by local residents. But today, many years later, this gang has long been quietly corroded, and it is not the evil sect that corrodes it, but the so-called human nature, or the seven emotions and six desires of people.
Most people in power will inevitably be consumed by their own desires after they have power, some people are lustful, some people are greedy, and some people will have appetite. After being gradually swallowed up by desires, no matter how great and gentlemanly these rulers used to be, they are now just people who are dominated by desires. The gentleman of the year is long gone, leaving a shell filled with desire.
Mingyue didn't comment on Ye Xiaoer's judgment, she put her left hand on her cheek and said to herself, "Punishing evil and promoting good, good conduct can be called 'chivalry', these two people may have really punished evil and promoted good, but now I only see two martial arts scum who assassinated sworn brothers and colluded with pirates." ”
After speaking, Mingyue suddenly changed her words and asked Ye Xiaoer, "Xiao Er, if one day, a hero who was famous all over the world many years ago was discovered, and now he is colluding with the Demon Sect, mutilating the righteous path of martial arts, and cultivating demon skills, what will you do?" ”
Ye Xiaoer was stunned by Mingyue's sudden question, he laughed dryly and said, "This...... I don't know how to answer when you suddenly ask me. ”
Mingyue nodded silently, and then asked, "Then if the descendant of a demon who was killed by righteous people wants to avenge his father, do you think it is right or wrong?" ”
Ye Xiaoer touched his nose and muttered for a moment, "I think it is natural to avenge my father, even if it is the child of the devil, I will take revenge if it were me." Ye Xiaoer said these words very seriously.
Mingyue nodded and smiled lightly, "I see, I know." ”
Ye Xiaoer always felt that it was strange when he looked at her, but he couldn't say what was strange.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and the eyes of the two subconsciously looked towards the door.
I saw Yue Lingtian standing at the door panting, looking tired.
