Chapter 24(31)
Dark Night said: "What you see in your eyes may not be true. It is precisely because of the deep inferiority complex that some people have to pretend to be arrogant, so that no one can see their true side, and they will not look down on him. Some people are born proud...... I used to know a friend, she is very similar to you, the same decent woman full of benevolence and morality, and then ...... (*For details, please refer to the side chapter "Mo Qianyan") Okay, this is not the point. I'm also a top master in the sect, if it weren't for Jiang Yanchen, I would ...... In the past, I was very indifferent to Meng Lin, but it was just because I didn't dare to offend her more, and I wanted to make some achievements in martial arts practice, so that the sect leader would be impressed, and I could marry Meng Lin to me. But I didn't want her to think that I was boring and didn't want to play with me anymore, so I gradually became estranged. I had the same idea as you, and I felt that if I did it all over again, I would no longer regard martial arts training as a top priority, and I would do my best to meet her requests. But it's hard to say, if my martial arts are really a mess, how can the sect leader take me in? I'm afraid that he will kick me out of the helm with a kick as soon as I am a worthless waste, let alone recruit me as a son-in-law. But later, I learned that the sect leader was in love with Jiang Yanchen in the morning, and not only wanted Meng Lin to marry him, but even planned to pass on his position to him sooner or later, so no matter how hard I tried, it was useless. When I understand this, I really don't know whether to be happy or sad. I helped Meng Lin escape and sabotage their marriage, partly because I felt sorry for her, and partly because I didn't want to see Jiang Yanchen marry her as he wished, and I couldn't bear their affection and love in my eyes. Now you understand, I'm not a lover saint, I'm just as selfish. ”
Nangong Xue gently pressed her chin against her knees, and said, "No one asked us to be love saints, right? You have to understand Meng Lin, maybe she doesn't have you in her heart, if she doesn't obey her parents' orders and let her choose voluntarily, maybe she is willing to marry you." ”
Dark Night died and smiled bitterly: "Don't comfort me, choose voluntarily? Isn't she still in love with the prince of the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Where is my position? I have been fighting with Jiang Yanchen for so many years, and in the end we all lost, is this result fair?"
Nangong Xue said: "Menglin, she...... It's a good girl, if she can figure it out afterwards and understand that the open and secret battles of officialdom are not for her, maybe she will come back to you. We are all separated from our loved ones, the difference is that you still have some hope, but I have no hope at all. ”
The dark night suddenly changed color, stood up suddenly, strode to the side, and said viciously: "There will be no such day! There will never be such a day!" He moved so violently when he got up that even the flames that had been burning smoothly were shaken by the wind, and they jumped up half a foot high. Nangong Xue was taken aback, and said with some grievances: "I'm just saying, if you don't have it, it's not good, why are you having such a big temper? I don't think you can be happy?"
Died in the dark night: "You say, mourning is greater than parting from life, but I think it is death that is more devastating." Monlin: She ...... She's dead. ”
Nangong Xue was taken aback and said, "It's dead, where did you get the news? Is it possible, it's just a rumor? That demon cult demon girl who kills people everywhere...... Isn't she?"
When she first got acquainted with Chu Menglin, she admired her boldness and righteousness very much, and she was unrestrained, which was the realization of her desire on behalf of herself. Even if he later learned her true identity and was indignant for a while, he just broke off his friendship with her, but he didn't follow the master's teachings and killed the demon sect demon with a sword. After another period of time, she regained her sisterly affection for Meng Lin, and no matter what, she hoped that she could live well. Suddenly hearing the bad news, the only thought was: "No, no, it must be a mistake." ”
Dark Night said: "This is what Shen Shiyun told me personally, she said that even the body has been salvaged ashore, so I can't believe it." This is all because someone is not greedy enough and beats the brain of the Afterimage Sword, so he poisoned her...... That man is now beautiful, but I must pay for his life, even if it is the same death, I will not hesitate to do it!"
Nangong Xue said: "Meng Lin's martial arts are not weak, and she is very clever, how can she ...... How could she be easily victimized? Could it be that the murderer was someone she knew very well? Or was his martial arts much higher?"
The dark night died's eyes were blood-red, and the hatred in his eyes was like flames, almost burning his whole person into ashes from the inside out. After a moment of silence, he suddenly punched the trunk of the tree fiercely, and said, "Unfortunately, he happened to have all of these two." That vile bastard...... I'll fuck the devil Jiang Yanchen with a human face and a beast's heart! Even if he dies a thousand times, it's not enough to atone for his sins!"
Nangong Xue was frightened and frightened, although she was usually rude when she spoke in the dark, but it was the first time she was as rude as today, and she said cautiously: "That...... It's not good to scold him like this, right? Between you and Sect Leader Jiang...... Could there be some misunderstanding?"
Dark Night said angrily: "What is the misunderstanding? When Meng Lin escaped from the helm, she took the Remnant Sword with her, but now she killed someone, and the Remnant Sword returned to the hands of the Shadow Sacrifice Sect, what does this mean? Even an idiot can guess it! Shen Shiyun said that he wanted to destroy what he couldn't get, this is one of the reasons, and there is another key, I can think it through. The Afterimage Sword is the treasure of martial arts, and he has long intended to keep it for himself, but the sword is enshrined in the sacrificial sword hall, although he can see it every day, it is not his after all, how difficult is that? So he pretended to be a good person, and when Menglin left, he deliberately connived at her to take away the Afterimage Sword, and then killed her in the future to regain the sword. This trap, he even deceived me into it. This devil still values his reputation very much. ”
Nangong Xue was speechless, she had never even thought of these conspiracies, if the facts were as the dark night said, then Jiang Yanchen's scheming was really deep and terrifying. But judging from getting along in previous years, I always felt that his love for Meng Lin was no shallower than that of the dark night, and it was very possible to be cruel to others, but I didn't believe that he would treat Meng Lin like this, so he whispered for a long time: "But you ...... Isn't it your best friend? You shouldn't trust him a little more? Okay...... Give him a chance to explain as well. ”
Dark Night snorted coldly: "What chance do you want? Give him a chance to lie and quibble? Who is his friend! The biggest mistake in my life is to be friends with this wolf-hearted thing! I am inseparable from him! Meng Lin will not die in vain, if I don't kill him, I will not be a man!"
Nangong Xue still had one ten-thousandth hope in her heart, and said: "Since those words are all what Shen Shiyun said to you, they are just her words, how long have you known her, why do you believe in her words?"
The night should not have died, waiting for her to continue. Seeing that he was willing to listen to himself, Nangong Xue could always take a turn for the better, and persuaded even harder: "Meng Lin died tragically, I am as sad as you." But don't ignore that Shen Shiyun is a very scheming person, and it is difficult to distinguish which sentence is true and which sentence is false for her words. Sect Leader Jiang and Chu ...... Meng Lin is the enemy who killed her whole family, and she has a grudge in her heart, so she uses this poisonous trick to provoke you to avenge her, let you kill each other within the Shadow Sacrifice Sect, and finally pick her again. If you think about it, is that possible?"
After hearing her words, a strange smile suddenly appeared on her face, nodded slowly, turned around and approached her step by step, leaned down, and got closer and closer to Nangong Xue, and the faces of the two were about to touch together. Nangong Xue was flustered in her heart and said, "You...... You...... What's going on?"
Dark Night Death sneered: "Clever, the scene is beautiful enough." Are you trying to trick me into killing Shen Shiyun and solving this rival for you, and there will be no more obstacles between you and Li Yijie, right?"
Nangong Xue was furious when she heard this, she had never looked down on discord the most, not to mention that she was also seriously analyzed, but she was suspicious of him for no reason, she raised her hand and threw it out without thinking about it, and slapped him hard, and even the silence of the night was instantly broken with a "snap", and reprimanded: "Who do you think of me?
Dark Night Death was close to her at the time, and she didn't have time to avoid it, she was slapped to the side, her face clearly showed five finger prints, but her expression was blank, her pale lips trembled slightly, her eyes stared at the ground fiercely, and her eyes were cold enough to freeze anything into ice.
Nangong Xue looked at his hand in disbelief, it was really impulsive just now, thinking that he was enduring a huge torment in his heart, what he should do was to comfort him, not to make it worse. With his character, good words may be useful, but they will never be woken up. He said with difficulty: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to...... Otherwise, you can beat me back......" When she said this, she was really nervous, afraid that he would be furious and really slap herself back, but she was a little resentful of the blind hero just now.
Dark Night didn't answer her, and still maintained her inherent posture for a long time before she said in a hoarse voice: "You are a woman, I won't worry about you for the time being." It won't be so cheap next time. Nangong Xue was mixed with fear, gratitude, and pity in her heart, tears flowed all over her face, and she cried: "I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"
There was no afterword for the night. On the second day, the two got up early and hurried, here is very close to Huashan, and after a short time of road, they have reached the foot of the mountain, and the two did not say a word on the way. When she arrived at the gate of Deshan, Nangong Xue felt that the atmosphere in Huashan today was a little unusual, and there was a sense of alienation and strangeness. Although she hadn't been to the mountain gate for six years, she was sure that the strange feeling was definitely not born from this.
There was a faint smell of blood wafting in the wind, revealing the aura of slaughter, which was difficult to tell whether it was born from what she thought, and the disciples who were originally distributed on the mountain to guard the door did not know where to go, which showed that the situation was different, and they were so anxious that they rushed to the mountain.
Dark Night suddenly grabbed her sleeve and said, "Can't you run so quickly to die?" This was the first thing he said to her since last night, Nangong Xue was only worried about the safety of the master, and she didn't have time to be moved, so she paused and said: "The situation has changed, can't I see it? I only covet my own pleasure on the road, if this really causes accidents to the master, then I will be a sinner in Huashan! I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life! My master and brother, they are still on the mountain, life and death are uncertain, I have to go and see it quickly! Hey, why are you not in a hurry at all?"
Dark Night said coldly: "Why should I be in a hurry? Anyway, they can't die, that's it." ”
Nangong Xue said angrily: "You...... Okay, it's not your business, of course you don't care about it! I won't tell you! It's death, and I'll die with Master!" Nangong Xue suddenly felt comforted in her heart, and said with a forced smile: "We Huashan, but it's Xiyue, you ......."
Dark Night said, "Aren't you worried? Saying that, Nangong Xue was stunned for a moment, and nodded hurriedly: "Ahh Traveling all the way, Nangong Xue observed slightly, and some traces of slashing and axes could be seen between the stone slabs on the road, and the higher the mountain, there were even a few blades thrown on the ground, and some blood was sprinkled on the side, Nangong Xue was shocked, and she was only worried about which of her classmates was injured.
