Chapter 469: Parting Ways
"The two of you came to my hometown, I don't know what to see?"
The plum blossom fairy couldn't figure out the details of Yan and Ming, and moved the jade step slightly to block the Qiao sisters behind them, revealing a look of vigilance.
"Don't dare. Yan smiled softly and tentatively: "The fairy knows that the Heavenly Bird Master has an apprentice, and now he is a red man in front of the elephant lord, claiming to destroy the Pharaoh Ancestor, there are many disciples, and he is indispensable, and the whereabouts of the Nine Dragons are leaked by him to the Wandering Soul Palace. Unexpectedly, this thing is not in the hands of the fairy, it is all Gu Changhong's secret deceit and harboring evil intentions. So that the two of us will not bother. β
The plum blossom fairy was stunned, but she didn't expect Yan Qingwu to be so reasonable, and said, "The two of you, please take care of yourself." β
The two said goodbye to the plum blossom fairy and the others, walked out of the plum forest, and looked back, the forest was deep and empty.
"Senior sister, are we going back?" Ming Qin saw that Yan Qingwu did not ask the Plum Blossom Fairy in detail, and wondered if she had other plans.
"What if you don't go back, what if you don't go back?
Ming Qin knew what she meant, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, Yan Qingwu was extremely smart, but he liked to eat some flying vinegar, which was really difficult to deal with. His mind turned, and he pretended not to know: "The scenery here is really good, if there is a beautiful woman like my sister who escapes the world together, it is a good thing." β
"Really?" Yan Qingwu's beautiful eyes lit up, he grabbed his arm happily, leaned his head slightly on Ming Qin's shoulder, and sighed lightly: "As long as we can see each other from time to time, no matter where we are." I'm so happy. β
Ming Qin coughed dryly, not daring to speak easily. At this time, it doesn't matter what you say or do. didn't even say or do anything, and the relationship between the two had obviously crossed the boundary between the senior sister and brother unconsciously.
The two wandered around the woods for a long time. I realized that I was not familiar with the path, and when I came, Gu Changhong led the way, and it was difficult to get out. I have no choice but to wait for the light of day to dawn and then look for it slowly. But in the past few hours, I don't know what kind of changes have happened to Jiugao Temple, if the golden swallow falls into the hands of the Wandering Spirit Palace, it will be a big blow to the plan of the two.
"Since we can't find the path, why don't we find a place to rest for a while?"
Ming Qin learned the Tao since he was a child, and he has developed a temperament that is easy to meet, no matter how bad the situation is. It's not overly restless.
Yan Qingwu hummed in a low voice and said with a smile: "I knew that it would be better to stay in Meilin, at least Meiying over there is sparse, and it is very watchable." It's eerie and weird here. β
Ming Qin smiled, he didn't mind walking back, but if he brought it up, Yan Qingwu would definitely want to bring the plum blossom fairy out to make fun of it.
"Why don't we go back to Merlin?"
Yan Qingwu let go of her thoughts, and the girl's attitude was undoubtedly revealed. Thinking of the poetry and picturesqueness in the plum forest, it is naturally more suitable to step on the moon hand in hand. It's as gloomy as this old tree, and it's too bad for the scenery.
Mingqin nodded slightly in agreement. Yan smiled lightly, enjoying a rare time alone. The footsteps can't help but be light.
The two of them didn't walk a few steps, and suddenly heard the sound of their clothes breaking through the wind, and it seemed that there was a master fighting. Eyes like. When they landed, they had the same heart, and they jumped onto a banyan tree with lush leaves.
Just hid your body. I saw three figures galloping towards me, and in front of me was a tall and fat Taoist. Behind him, two masked monks were in hot pursuit.
Ming Qin peeked at it, and the three of them were still old acquaintances. It was Gu Changhong who fled to destroy the Pharaoh Dao, and it was the young palace master of the Wandering Soul Palace and the copper-faced man in green clothes who were chased.
This young palace master and the man in Tsing Yi have extremely high cultivation, and they are still on the southern soul envoys such as male and pit vipers. The young palace master has another golden bowl, which is so powerful that even the plum blossom fairy can't dodge.
Gu Changhong is one enemy and two, and he is naturally dwarfed. Tsing Yi's personal method is secretive, and he is ruthless, invading Gu Changhong's side for a strong attack, and the move is directly to the point. The young palace master responded from the side, so that Gu Changhong had to be distracted, and if he didn't count, he would be in danger and miserable.
"Gu Changhong, your master is not my opponent, with your little trick, do you dare to resist?"
The man in Tsing Yi screamed angrily, his palms were opened, and a Yin Qi of Mo Kepei Yu roared out, changing and overturning, like a spirit beast and a ghost, faintly with the sound of a ghost crying.
Gu Changhong changed color in shock, he had no way to dodge, and was quickly swept away by the yin wind and ghostly energy, a gloomy and depressing feeling penetrated his body, and the whole person was like a nightmare, and he seemed to be pounced on and bitten by countless evil ghosts in a trance, and he couldn't help but feel cold all over his body, and his heart was broken.
Seeing Gu Changhong's blank eyes, the man in Tsing Yi trembled, snorted coldly, and hit him in the chest with a flick of his sleeve. Gu Changhongdun flew up like a fallen leaf in the wind, and slammed into the banyan tree where Ming and Yan were hiding, and the branches and leaves of the tree shook off.
Ming Qin's heart rose to his throat for a while, and he didn't know if the people in Tsing Yi had discovered their hiding.
Gu Changhong ate this bump, but instead he was agitated and sobered up. After trying to get rid of the soreness and weakness of the four bodies, he knew that he had suffered from the Tao of the people in Tsing Yi, and said dejectedly: "Gu Mou and your Wandering Soul Palace have no grudges and no hatred, why do you have to get along with me?"
"No more nonsense. The man in Tsing Yi said menacingly: "Where is that old bastard hiding in the sky? If you say it obediently, I will spare your dog's life." Otherwise, the deity will make your life worse than death. β
Rao is Gu Changhong is accustomed to wind and waves, and he couldn't help but shudder when he heard the threat of the Tsing Yi people, this person is ruthless, and he has to peel off his skin if he doesn't die. Gu Changhong also wanted to get the Nine Dragons Cup, and he knew a lot about the style of the Wandering Soul Palace, and he didn't suspect that he was making a false threat, and hurriedly said: "Two venerable envoys, didn't my master, the Venerable Heavenly Bird, let you die many years ago? You should know this matter better than me, even if you kill me, Gu Mou doesn't have the ability to bring the family teacher back to life." β
"Bastard. The man in Tsing Yi scolded: "The birds and dogs are not seen in life, and there are no corpses in death." It's clearly looking for a place to hide. His sudden appearance tonight confirmed my suspicions. You are his protΓ©gΓ©, and you can be trusted by the Lord. Wouldn't it be very easy for him to find a place to cultivate? And if you attract the silver fox and the male to this place, you must have a ghost in your heart?"
Gu Changhong's face changed several times. shouted wronged, "I have an appointment with the two soul envoys of Fox and Yu. Now that they have been guided to find the plum blossom fairy, they should retire after success. Other than that. The envoy just said that he had seen the family teacher, so why didn't you take him on the spot? I only know that the family teacher has been dead for many years, and I really don't know his whereabouts. β
"You still dare to quibble. If you don't suffer a little, you won't be recruited. β
The figure of the Tsing Yi man swayed slightly, and instantly swept in front of Gu Changhong, the black qi in his palm surged, and pressed towards his top door.
Gu Changhong opened his mouth and stammered, only to feel that his eyes were worried, and his body was heavy and abnormal. Countless silkworm-like dead souls overflowed from the black qi. Wrapped around Gu Changhong's body and squeaked and gnawed. His white and delicate skin suddenly became black, and he screamed loudly and shrunk into a ball.
Ming Qin felt a slight sense of compassion, when he first saw Gu Changhong in the Heavenly Bird Garden, what a graceful bearing, talking and laughing, how could he have thought that once he fell into the hands of the Wandering Soul Palace, he was tortured so miserably.
"Auntie, I don't think Gu Changhong is lying. Let's find another way. β
The young palace lord watched coldly. Seeing that Gu Changhong was already dying, he slowly stepped forward.
The man in Tsing Yi snorted coldly and disagreed, "The surname Gu is full of deceit. He instigated the silver fox and the male to make trouble in his hometown, and you didn't see it. How do you know he's not lying?"
The young palace master was slightly silent, and then said, "I think the top priority at the moment is to rush to Kim Yong City to discuss the plan to revive the demon kingdom. We searched for the Nine Dragons in vain. On the contrary, it is easy to alarm the people in the Daomen. β
The man in Tsing Yi said angrily: "The Nine Dragons are the magic weapon of the palace, how can you glorify the main gate if you don't find it." Why are you so confused. β
"Auntie. I advise you not to be emotional. Although the man in black was strong in Taoism, we didn't have any evidence to prove that he was the Heavenly Fowl Master. It's been so long. You'd better take a look. β
The young palace master knew that the Tsing Yi people and the Heavenly Bird Master had a relationship entanglement, and he was also quite responsible for the loss of the Nine Dragon Bowls. But as the heir of the Wandering Soul Palace, he has a wide range of aspects to consider, and he can't make too many enemies because of the Nine Dragons. No matter how powerful a sect is, it is not wise to make enemies everywhere.
There is usually a distinction between good and evil sects in the world. Good and evil refer to the way of doing things, not the purpose of the founding of the sect. A denomination is founded with a motive. There are very few people who are completely evil in this motive, and very few people do evil for the sake of doing evil. Wealth and glory are liked by the world, but when everyone pursues these things, some use righteous means and some evil ways.
The values of the demon race and human beings are not much different, especially those who follow the cultivation methods of human beings to become immortals, and what they pursue is nothing more than wealth, glory and fortune.
As the first sect of the demon clan, the Wandering Soul Palace has always been committed to the revival of the demon kingdom. It can also be said to be a grand vow. But there is obviously a difference in position with human beings, and what is considered an honorable cause in his eyes may be an evil deed in the eyes of human beings.
In fact, there are also high and low in evil, and the lowest is to make oneself infamous and notorious, like a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouts and beats it. The first-class is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, full of male thieves and female prostitutes, once the conspiracy is exposed, it is inevitable that he will be ruined, hateful and pitiful. Such people are innumerable throughout the ages, especially after the prevalence of Taoism, false Taoism and hypocrites are simply endless.
Many people even think that hypocrites are more hateful than real villains, which is a bit exaggerated. The real villain is a bottomless rough embryonic material, and the hypocrite is transferred with the social atmosphere. If the atmosphere changes, the hypocrite may change and become a true gentleman, such as Shusun Tong, Yu Wenshi and others, and when they meet Ming masters like Han Gaozu and Tang Taizong, they can also make a difference, which shows the importance of the environment.
In addition, when the atmosphere is weak, some loyal and honest people will be ridiculed as hypocrites. The so-called 'listen to his words, watch his deeds'. Judging a person's character should not only be based on false reputation, but also whether he can practice it, and it needs to be consistent.
The ancients accused Wang Mang of being a hypocrite, he had an excellent reputation before usurping the Han Dynasty, he was very frugal, and his wife wore coarse cloth clothes. If he still maintains this frugality after becoming an emperor, at least it is not false in this regard. On the contrary, in order to seize the position of the crown prince, Emperor Yang of Sui was very frugal to win the favor of Emperor Wen of Sui and Empress Dugu, and waited until he became the emperor who was poor and extravagant, and his true nature was exposed. Whether or not there is a real element of previous frugality, it will be attributed to falsehood.
Bai Juyi's poem, "Duke Zhou is afraid of rumors, Wang Mang is humble and not usurped, if he dies at that time, who knows the merits of the ages." The so-called 'those who start well are really complicated, and those who end are widowed'. Many people can't be consistent, and they can't afford to end up in the evening, even if they do well before, they will inevitably lose their previous efforts, which is really regrettable.
The most successful evil is a thief who steals the country, and he is clearly a treacherous villain, but he can rank in the ninety-fifth and be worshipped. But 'justice is in the hearts of the people', even if you are a traitor to the country, you can't escape the mouth of the world. The merits and demerits and the coffin will be decided, and sooner or later there will be a fair evaluation.
In the same way, there are several levels of goodness, which will be discussed in detail later.
............
The man in Tsing Yi was scarred by the young palace master, and he was immediately annoyed and angry, and said angrily: "If you want to go to Kim Yong City, you can go by yourself, and I will not rest if I don't get the Nine Dragon Bowl." β
The young palace master hesitated: "If you refuse to listen to my kind words and persuasion, it is up to you." But I have to take a few souls with me, and you may not be able to do it alone. β
"If you want to go, you can go. You don't have to worry about my business. The man in Tsing Yi snorted coldly and said mercilessly.
"Okay, be careful. β
The young palace master was angry, said indifferently, and walked away.
The man in Tsing Yi looked at the figure of the young palace master and was stunned for a long time, and suddenly shouted: "Who is sneakily hiding in a tree, roll down for me." β
He is highly Taoist and has a natural sharp sense, as long as he has the heart to investigate, it is difficult for Ming and Yan to escape his perception.
Ming Qin heard the young palace master call him an aunt, and he was supposed to be a girl, but he wore a strange bronze mask, and his voice was cold and stone-like, making it almost impossible to distinguish between men and women. Wearing a cyan cloth robe, wide clothes and large sleeves, except for the tall figure, there is nothing unusual to see.
Ming Qin saw that the man in Tsing Yi was very cultivated, for fear that he would hurt people violently, so he grabbed Yan Qingwu's jade hand and fell down lightly, and arched his hand: "We are just passing by, there are many disturbances, no strange, no strange." β
"Passing by?" the man in Tsing Yi sneered, "What kind of place is this, why did you pass by here?"
Yan Qingwu said lightly: "Everyone meets in Pingshui, why bother to get to the bottom of it." In short, it has nothing to do with each other, please take care of yourself, we are not accompanied. β
"Stop. β
The man in Tsing Yi stopped sideways and said unrelentingly: "If you don't make it clear today, no one will want to leave." β
Yan Qingwu smiled dumbly, and said slightly: "You are really annoying, do you think that we are really afraid of you? I don't care if you do anything wrong and abuse lynching, but you ask me if I am here." (To be continued.) )
