Chapter 666: Why We Are Here (Page 1/1)

"Nangong Chi has seen Master Haitong!"

Hearing what the other party said, Nangong Chi turned his eyes to Haitong on the opposite side, hugged his fists, and asked with a puzzled expression:

"My Nangongmen and Wuxiang Temple have never had any grudges, and they don't have much interaction on weekdays, I don't know why Master Haitong initiated today's move?"

"Amitabha!" After closing his eyes and reciting the Zen language, he saw Haitong reply expressionlessly:

"What Nangong Shizhu said is true, over the years, you and I have indeed had no grudges. But there's one thing, your pie...... It's a bit too much. ”

"What's the matter? ”

"I don't know if the Nangong donor still remembers...... Peaks?"

Hearing these two words, Nangong Chi's face immediately showed displeasure. Although many years have passed, he still resents what Shanfeng did back then, and snorted coldly:

"Hmph! Of course I remember, I'm a traitor to Nangong Gate, how could I not remember? Could it be that the master is here for this person?"

"Well, it does have something to do with this person!" Haitong nodded back.

Hearing that the other party was really coming from the mountain peak, Nangong Chi was angry in his heart on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was also full of doubts, unable to figure out how the old things of twenty or thirty years ago could cause this trouble in front of him.

After looking at the four palace masters behind him, and seeing that the four of them shook their heads one after another to express their uncertainty, Nangong Chi had to speak again:

"Master Haitong, I know that Shan Feng was originally a disciple of your Wuxiang Temple, and when he defected to my Nangong Gate more than thirty years ago, you were reluctant. But this matter is his personal behavior, and he was definitely not instigated by my Nangong Gate, and finally got your consent, why do you want to bring up the old matter again now?"

Nangong Chi's words are indeed true, Shanfeng grew up in Wuxiang Temple since he was a child, and was accepted as an apprentice by Master Haiyin, that is, the Master of Forgetting Rings that Shanhe met in Jinsha Town, and has always been a disciple of Wuxiang Temple.

But when the mountain peak grew to the age of twenty-five or sixteen, that is, thirty years ago, for some reasons, he suddenly decided to leave the Wuxiang Temple and join the Nangong Gate.

As soon as this incident came out, of course, the people of Wuxiang Temple were very angry.

But as Nangong Chi said, this job-hopping incident was completely Shanfeng's own decision, not Nangongmen's design to seduce, so they can't be blamed.

Moreover, after the incident, Shanfeng also made a special trip back to Wuxiang Temple and explained to Haitong, Haiyin and others, and at that time it was regarded as the "understanding" of Wuxiang Temple.

So in Nangong Chi's view, this matter has long passed, but it is really incomprehensible for the other party to mention it again today.

After listening to Nangong Chi's words, Haitong did not refute, but nodded and said:

"That's right! This matter is Shanfeng's own decision, although the old man regrets it, but he has no intention of blaming it, please rest assured that the Nangong donor is here. ”

As soon as he heard that the other party was not here for this matter, Nangong frowned, obviously even more puzzled.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Jin Shuo, the palace master of the Autumn Palace behind him, remind in a low voice:

"Master, is that because of the previous pursuit?"

Hearing the word "pursuit", Nangong Chi understood what Jin Shuo meant after a little pondering, and looked at Haitong while nodding:

"Oh, I see, it turns out that the master is here to avenge Shanfeng? However, I want to remind the master first, this matter is Shanfeng's mistake first, as the so-called state has national laws and family rules, shouldn't the sect punish and investigate the disciple's mistakes?"

Speaking of this, seeing that Haitong was not in a hurry to talk, Nangong Chi let out a light sigh and continued:

"Originally, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but since it has been said here, the old man has nothing to hide. After Shanfeng joined my Nangong Gate, I treated him like my own brother, and never regarded him as an outsider, not only did I recognize him as a junior brother, but I also let him learn all kinds of techniques in the faction. But in the end, this son was ungrateful, and when he joined the sect for three years, he didn't even say hello, and went down the mountain without permission! What is even more hateful is that he not only stole the treasure bracelet and sword of my Nangong Gate, but also me, me, and me...... The colleagues I sent were also captured by him! How could I, Nangongmen, be patient with such a wolf-hearted thief? After more than 20 years of investigation, I finally found this person in the suburbs of Qingsong and corrected him on the spot! Am I wrong in doing so? Shouldn't this son pay for the heinous crime he committed against my Nangongmen?

Although twenty or thirty years have passed since this incident, Nangong Chi was still quite excited when he talked about it.

After hearing this, Haitong, who was standing opposite, also showed a look of regret for the first time, accompanied by a long sigh, and folded his hands together:

"Amitabha, the Nangong donor has misunderstood. What Shanfeng did back then was the cause, and it was the fruit that died outside the city of Qingsong twenty years later. Although the old man has mercy, he still knows right from wrong, and he is to blame for Shanfeng's death, and we ...... Not for revenge. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Nangong Chi was stunned, but even the four palace masters and many elders behind him were also stunned.

Because as far as the mountain peak is concerned, apart from the betrayal and revenge of the year, they really can't think of any reason worthy of the other party's rebellion, and they fell into contemplation for a while.

After seeing the expressions of everyone in Nangong, Haitong also noticed that the other party was really unknown, so after a secret sigh, he said:

"Forget it, since you can't think of it, then let my senior brother Haiyin tell you about it. ”

Haiyin, who had been enduring for a long time, saw that the abbot's junior brother finally allowed him to speak, so he stepped forward to the battle, and shouted with a sense of resentment:

"Nangong Chi, as the abbot said, whether the mountain peak defected or was killed, I Wuxiang Temple would not pursue it. Because after all, it was his own choice, and we would not interfere! But what was the crime of his two disciples? Why did you refuse to let go of your two children?"

Perhaps it has become a habit after years of hard work, even when he attended today's "grand event", Haiyin still wore the brown cloth robe with a lot of patches, and the sparse silver hair, which was almost exactly the same as when he encountered mountains and rivers five years ago.

"Two apprentices, what apprentices?" After hearing Haiyin's words, Nangong Chi asked with a confused face, as if he didn't understand what the other party meant.

Seeing that the other party was pretending to be confused with him, Haiyin said with full anger:

"Hmph! I don't remember, do I, okay, the old monk will tell you what to understand! Twenty-five years ago, Shanfeng was killed by you, but he left behind two children. The big apprentice is called Shanxue, and the little apprentice is called Shanhe, and the old monk had seen one of them five or six years ago. Alas! When Shanfeng passed away, the eldest of these two children was less than ten years old, and it was not easy for them to survive by relying on each other! But who would have thought that in the end, they still could not escape the clutches of your Nangong Gate, and they were killed and caught...... Nangong Chi, I really want to ask you, it's true that these two children are disciples of Shanfeng, but what are their crimes? Why don't you even let them go?"
