Chapter 38 (11)
Li Yijie answered: "What Master has given us is more love than our biological parents, and he can give the greatest tolerance to us ignorant naughty children. Urging us to practice martial arts must also be hoping that we will not repeat his mistakes again, all because of the lack of martial arts, we cannot protect the most important people, thus leaving a lifetime of regrets. But he never told us these ardent expectations. Yes, at that age, I just thought everything was new and interesting, and I didn't understand many of the sufferings in life at all. At that time, I was not sensible, and when I saw the gloomy cloud between Master's eyebrows and eyes, I would only complain that Master was too serious, but I never thought that Master, who was standing tall in front of us, still had so many unspeakable pains in his heart. Yes, even if he said it, he couldn't get his master back, and at the same time, he didn't want to affect our mood because of those dirty things. Now I only regret why Master didn't care about him in time when he was alive, made him angry everywhere, thought he could make decisions independently, and didn't even want to listen to Master's control. Why is it only when he dies and we take out his past again to reminisce, that we feel so painful ...... lungs?"
When the remaining disciples of Huashan heard his words, many of their eyes were moist, and the younger ones had already cried out with a "wow", while wiping their tears with their sleeves, they choked up: "Senior brother, don't say it again......! Please, don't say any more. Crying has always been contagious, Li Yijie and Nangong Xue thought of the tragic death of this Yan Shi's loving father, and since then there is no such person in the world, sadness comes from it, and they also cry.
The original owner only felt extremely unnatural, endured it for a long time, and still opened his mouth to persuade: "Yijie, Brother Meng sacrificed his life, not to earn you a few more tears, let alone let you give up on yourself for his death." The battle in the future may be even more tragic, but no matter how difficult the future is, we will have to face it. ”
Li Yijie shook his head in fear, eager to find a crack in the ground and bury himself deep to escape all these heart-wrenching facts.
Ever since he raised the banner and claimed to be hostile to Jiang Yanchen, he has always been at a disadvantage from beginning to end. But seeing Jiang Yanchen talking and laughing casually, he has already crushed everything he cares about. In this uneven battle, friends continued to sacrifice for this, leaving his side one by one, and now even the master is gone. trembling voice: "I...... I'm sorry, the original hero...... Forgive me, I'm afraid I can't help it...... If the purpose of defeating him is to make the cherished people happy, but if they are all gone, then what is the point of me doing all this......? I'm sorry. ”
When the original owner of the village heard this, he was furious and scolded with his head and face: "I really don't know how your brain was born! Don't you want to see death, you can get your wish? If you don't get rid of the Seven Evil Boys, then death will never stop, and the pain you suffer today will be repeated by people every day! How can you be so narrow-minded from a personal perspective? Killing him will certainly not bring the dead back to life, but it can make more living people live with peace of mind and live happily! That kid intends to seek revenge, and you think that if you quit the martial arts, he will let you go? When the time comes, I am afraid that it will be the end of the earth, and the pursuit will continue, and there will never be a day of peace! To be a man, we should stand up with our heads held high and face our own responsibilities! Blindly evading is the act of a turtle with a shrunken head! I saw you a year ago, and in order to save your junior sister, you did not hesitate to engage with the Seven Evil Boys in a short battle, putting life and death out of the way, and came to challenge me! At that time, you were a little more sure than you are now? I admired your fearless courage at the beginning, and I was finally moved by you before I agreed to help you. If you start crying and crying, not only will I not look at you once, but I will immediately ask someone to throw you out! Li Yijie, you show me a little momentum from the past!
After saying that, he took a few breaths and said: "Think about it carefully! As the saying goes, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the Huashan faction cannot be without an owner for a day.
Disciples, you look at me, I look at you, in the face of the original owner under the anger, they didn't dare to respond rashly. What's more, succeeding as the head of Huashan at this time is undoubtedly pushing himself to the forefront in the repeated battles, and the disciples are in great trouble, and no one wants to be in danger.
In the end, it was Nangong Xue who whispered: "In the past, when the master was alive, the most optimistic person was Senior Brother Li, and there was often a hint of teaching each other as the head of the house. In order to follow the master's wishes, and at the same time, my Huashan disciples have the highest martial arts and the most extensive knowledge, and they must be none other than the senior brother, so in my opinion, the senior brother should also be invited to take office. ”
The original owner of the village was hating himself for not being able to make steel, so he glanced at the rest of the disciples and asked, "Do you all support this unpromising kid?" The disciples didn't dare to respond, but they didn't dare to deny it, they were silent one by one, and only acquiesced. The original owner sighed: "Being a master has no longevity, teaching this group of apprentices who shrank their heads and brains! Brother Meng, you have knowledge under the spring, but I am afraid that you will be angry and come back." ”
Li Yijie woke up like a dream at this time, and exclaimed: "No, no, no, I ...... How can I be virtuous, how can I be worthy of being the head of Huashan......? In the next, I really can't do it......"
The original owner sneered: "How can you be? At least you have been the leader of the martial arts alliance for seven years, can't you still govern a small Huashan faction?" Li Yijie still waved his hands and said: "The Huashan faction has been so prosperous in recent years, it all depends on the master's life's work...... There are also the heads of the past dynasties, as well as the merits of the founding ancestors, there is nothing they can do, in case this eternal foundation is destroyed in my hands, it is really ashamed of the ancestors......"
The original owner of the village interrupted: "Slow, you said that the successor to the head of the family is due to lack of mental strength, I am afraid that it will ruin the foundation of Huashan, then let me ask you, if you knew that you could not succeed in the morning, why did you still participate in the hero conference in the first place, and still want to take the position of the leader of the alliance? Don't think that if you take advantage of it, you can easily withdraw from it! Could it be that in your eyes, the leader of the martial arts alliance is much more inferior than the head of Huashan? Then I don't know if you are too exalted by Huashan, or too much by the various sects in the small martial arts? A mouthful of spit per person alone is enough to drown you. ”
After a pause, his tone softened slightly, patted Li Yijie on the shoulder, and said, "Since you have become the leader of the alliance, let's try to do it as reluctantly as possible! This honor is not something that everyone is qualified to enjoy." Sitting in the position of the leader of the alliance, you must bear some responsibilities, even if you don't want to do anything, you can only face it strongly. Although this position is magnificent, compared to ordinary people, it is also much harder, and it is impossible to see the benefits rushing first, and if there is a slight difficulty, you have to hide at the end?"
Li Yijie smiled bitterly: "Yes, that's true, but in the martial arts, you can't rush with blood, you have to think more about the truth." Lately, I've often thought that maybe I was wrong when I started against him, and that if I provoked such an opponent, I would never have the slightest glory except to bring disaster to myself. He used to resent me so much that he had no way out...... yes, maybe I'm pushing him too hard. Think about it, at that time, the woman he loved the most was dead, and even before he died, he hated him. I forced him to kill the brother he cared about the most with his own hands, and destroyed the Shadow Worship Sect he grew up in, which has indeed driven him to a dead end, and it is not unreasonable for him to hate me so much. Isn't this the destruction of the dream on which he depends? Isn't his madness of killing everything now another manifestation of his collapse? It is precisely for this reason that once he has enough strength, he will repay the suffering he has suffered tenfold and a hundred times more to others?"
The original owner said coldly: "The positions are different, they are all fighting for themselves, so what's wrong? It's clear that that kid can't afford to lose, so he comes to mess around." His series of defeats at that time were indeed a bit harder, but they were not enough to collapse. He brought it all upon himself, and if he dreams of killing and destroying, should we also approve of him achieving it?"
Nangong Xue seconded: "Yes, the most common sentence he says is 'the winner is king', but there is no rule to say it, this sentence can only be used on him." Since he is now incompetent, and you have not made a ghost and defeated him in a dignified manner, what is the need for him to pretend to be a bitter lord to beg for justice? This person is already hopeless, could it be that his vexatious tricks of attacking the heart really have an effect on you? It is the paranoia of his own personality that has created today's madness, and no one has to be responsible for this. ”
The original owner of the village couldn't help nodding beside him, and said: "What the female baby said won my heart, Yijie, look at your dignified seven-foot man, and you have the dual titles of the leader of the martial arts alliance and the new head of the Huashan faction, how can you be less knowledgeable than a little girl?"
Li Yijie was silent, and only after a long time did he say: "When I was young, I asked Master, everyone belongs to the same line of martial arts, but why is there another distinction between good and evil? What is the fundamental sign of distinguishing between good and evil? At that time, Master replied to me that the demon sect and demons are extremely cruel and indiscriminately kill innocents, and everyone will be punished. So my heart was filled with righteous indignation, and I was determined to use the long sword in my hand to drink the blood of the demon cult demons, as if I were the messenger of justice. But as I get older and think of following Master, I have seen and heard all kinds of things, and the blood debt on our hands may not be less than that of the Demon Sect, so how should we explain this? Master replied that whether it is an orthodox religion or a cult, we will do our best to practice kung fu well, the foundation of swordsmanship, one is to defend oneself, and the other is to kill the enemy, all that is different is why we kill. Whether the other party is good or bad, you can't make a light judgment because of which side he is, the real difference is that those who kill people for themselves are evil people, and those who draw swords for the sake of the great prince of the world are chivalrous warriors who eliminate violence and peace. In my conscience, I don't want to kill people, I hope that there will be no more wars in the world, everyone can be happy together, regardless of Han people, regardless of black and white, there will be no more prejudices, and there will be no need for one side to fight for sovereignty and slaughter the opposing side. Of course...... This is just my wish, and in today's troubled times, it is simply an unrealistic fantasy. But now it's not that I refuse to do it, nor do I think of my brotherhood with him, and I can't bear to kill him...... No, from the moment I knew that he was a demon sect demon and disrespected my master in public, I had already broken off with him. But there are always some opponents who are difficult to win even if you try your best. Didn't my master hate that old thief of the Demon Sect and didn't want to kill him? He challenged again and again, but failed again and again...... What's more, you also said just now that even you can't deal with this devil, what can I do with me?"
