Chapter 16: Emptiness
Three days have passed since the change of Yunmengze.
For some reason, although the catastrophe has gone, Qin Chuan has always been in a bit of a trance recently.
It seems to be between the vast heaven and the earth, there are bright stars and vast smoke waves, so wonderful. A man of great sins, shedding his shackles, as if kneeling.
So religious.
"Good and evil, right and wrong, how can the gentleman judge me?"
"Good and evil are in the hearts of men. ”
"Then, the human heart, is it good? or evil?"
"There is no good or evil in the human heart. Once upon a time, when others did evil to you, you did not know that others also did good to others, and you were determined to do evil to evil, and you were also good, but you did not know that you did good to others, and you did evil to others. The cycle of good and evil eventually becomes cause and effect, and of course, good and evil are endless. ”
"If you turn good into evil, will you not let evil run rampant?"
"Good and evil will be rewarded. Because you have been inflicted on evil, you are indignant, and you are always thinking about good and evil, but in fact it is the great evil. You can understand that there is no good and no evil, and it is at ease in people's hearts, this is the righteousness of my freedom. ”
"So, is the disciple wrong?"
"Yes. You, you chose the abyss. ”
Abyss......
......
The warm lake breeze makes people forget the cold.
Qin Chuan remembered the cliff in the island where Xiao Rubai and Wen Ren were drunk and martyred, and on this day, for some reason, he suddenly wanted to come and take a look. Perhaps, to remember the people who were ruthlessly tricked by fate.
It's as if it's yourself.
Unfortunately, at this moment, I actually met someone on that cliff.
But it was an old man with gray hair, old, but his color was not decaying, he was dressed in white, and he was full of energy, if he wasn't wearing a Taoist robe, Qin Chuan mistakenly thought that he was his master Wuchenzi. He sat alone on the edge of the cliff, looking at the vast Yunmeng Daze, showing the appearance of a hidden master.
This person, Qin Chuan knows.
...... Even, I have only seen it for a short time.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan's face was slightly stunned:
"Mr. Qin Chuan thanked him for saving his life before. ”
immediately bowed, but Qin Chuan bowed down with great respect, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
On that day, if this old gentleman hadn't appeared, I am afraid that he would have either died in the hands of Sikong Lone, or he would have been devoured by the terrifying power that suddenly erupted from the Star Tribulation. His own cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and it was at that time that the true yuan under the sacrifice of disillusionment was injected into the Star Tribulation, causing great changes.
Almost, I really ended up with that empty silence.
Thankfully......
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan was still a little afraid in his heart. This is also one of the reasons why I have been in a trance in recent days, and that power is far more terrifying than the backlash of the demons!
"Can the power of the Star Tribulation be suppressed?"
The old man looked at Qin Chuan and only asked lightly.
"Thanks to Mr. Help, I am already fine. ”
Qin Chuan responded, and then asked a little presumptuously, "Dare to ask Mr. Kou's name?"
"Ziyin. ”
“?!”
Hearing this, Qin Chuan was suddenly shocked.
The self-proclaimed "Mr. Ziyin" is not the valley master of the Joyful Valley?
...... No wonder he would appear in this place where he had fallen.
According to rumors, Mr. Ziyin was a great sage of Confucianism hundreds of years ago, and he was the first person to cultivate the truth, and one of the main reasons for the prosperity of Confucianism was because of him. And after such an achievement, he suddenly gave up his cultivation, simply abandoned all his fame, left the Confucian Garden, and lived in seclusion.
Later, there was Xiaoyao Valley.
It is said that this Mr. Ziyin abolished Confucian cultivation, but created a set of practice methods by himself, the content of which is unknown to the world, but from the perspective of the general strength of the disciples who went out of Xiaoyao Valley, it can be imagined......
How profound is that set of Xiaoyao Valley cultivation methods!
Xiao Rubai is one of them.
The "Qin Demon", which was later feared by everyone in the Central Plains, is even more so.
"Goodbye Qin Chuan!"
After a long delay, Qin Chuan finally saluted very respectfully, as if speechless for a while, he could only sincerely express his admiration in his heart, "If it weren't for Mr. Zuo's action, I'm afraid Qin Chuan would have fallen into a place of no return." Mr. saves his life, Qin Chuan can't repay it. ”
"I saved you, but I also saved Sikong Lone. ”
“?”
"Back then, Sikong Lin and today's Shanyin laymen were brothers in the same sect. Sikong is long, and he is talented, and he is the successor of the king's master. Everything ...... changed."
The old man sighed, quite embarrassed, and continued:
"The master of the two of them is considered to be the master of the Confucian Garden, but unfortunately, later, because of the struggle with the Demon Dao for many years, it is inevitable that he will be infected with the Demon Barrier. In a crisis, the result of Confucian Garden's deliberations was that Sikong Lin personally killed him to resolve the safety of the world. At that time, Sikong was reluctant to do so, but finally agreed. ”
"Then he became a sinner in this world?"
Listening, Qin Chuan's heart sank, and he asked softly.
At that time, outsiders did not know about the fall of the master of the Confucian Garden, and it was impossible for the Confucian Garden to spread it at will. Sikong Lin committed such a rebellious murder of the teacher, but it was his junior brother, the Shanyin layman, who gathered the heroes of the world and suppressed it together. Sikong Lonely was unwilling to compete with the righteous path, so he fled from side to side, and as a result, he was also infected with a demonic barrier. ”
After speaking, the old man glanced at Qin Chuan meaningfully.
Qin Chuan was silent.
The old man continued: "Actually, the cause of all this is just the meaningless face of the Confucian Garden. Alas...... At that time, Sikong Lin came to my Valley and begged me to take him in, but I didn't agree. He had no choice but to leave, but he inadvertently learned an ancient secret, and a thought sprouted in his heart. ”
"Are the Eight Great Evil Weapons?"
"Not bad. ”
The old man responded, and his eyes were a little darker, "Creation makes people!" One thought, he did not hesitate to violate morality and commit the crime of killing teachers, but he used this to protect the people in the world, but he embarked on another path and chose an abyss. Confucian benevolence, in his body, has become a joke. ”
“......”
Qin Chuan was silent.
Suddenly, he glanced at his chest, the ancient secret, at this time, he also knew......
Shaking his head, Qin Chuan immediately asked:
"I wonder where Mr. went after he rescued Sikong Lone?"
"Go and finish up with Jun Moyan. ”
"Jun Demon Flame?"
Hearing this, Qin Chuan's heart sank again. It turned out that the Underworld Sect, which was at its peak for a while, was seized by A Luo Ye because of the infighting between the two masters, and was attacked by Tianxin Cliff and completely disappeared into the long stream of history. Thinking about it, Qin Chuan's eyebrows suddenly frowned, "Then, at this moment, what happened to those two?"
"I don't know what happened to those two. ”
The old man stroked his white beard, "But I know that on that day, Sikong Lin had already taken the Three-Day Soul Killing Pill. ”
“!”
Suddenly, Qin Chuan's face changed.
In the end, there was only a deathly silence.
......
After January.
The Yunmeng Revolution ended, and the Underworld Cult perished.
A major cult that has plagued the Central Plains for decades has finally been encircled and suppressed by the joint efforts of the righteous path in the world, including the Tianxin Cliff of the General Helm, and all the demon caves in various places have completely fallen, and the great rivers and mountains have finally returned to tranquility. The Holy Witch Cult, which made great contributions in this battle, was finally recognized by the Central Plains Righteous Path.
With his own strength, Linjiang Mansion avoided a catastrophe of life and death.
Aroye's prestige in the Central Plains is also growing day by day, and he is no longer the leader of the foreign witch cult in the past. Now she has a place in the Central Plains.
As for Qin Chuan......
Qin Chuan has never taken these outsiders' eyes to heart.
Those past grievances, the so-called "sins", whether they were done by themselves or by others, Qin Chuan never explained half of it. The so-called saving the world, I have never really thought about it, as long as the people around me are well, I feel that everything is satisfied.
Witnessing the killing of the remnants of the Underworld Sect by the Central Plains Righteous Path in the past month, Qin Chuan suddenly felt more and more tired. Also, I learned about the past of the empty past......
Qin Chuan, tired.
Whether it was killing or strife, they were all tired.
......
Zanmatsu view.
Facing the mountain, a green onion.
Qin Chuan watched the white figure disappear into the path, standing quietly in place, without words. Only a faint smile that always pouted at the corner of his mouth, himself, rarely so idle.
That's it, watch her fall back to Yanfeng.
"Everyone is gone, what else to see. ”
Suddenly, a familiar arm patted Qin Chuan's shoulder, and a laugh came.
"She's never walked before. ”
Qin Chuan replied softly, unconsciously touching his chest. At the end, he turned around, smiled at Ye Qiuqi, and without saying much, he lay down on the bluestone on the top of the mountain.
Ye Qiuqi also sat down cross-legged.
Afar.
The sky is clear, and the sky and the earth are vast.
"But I still remember when we were watching the clouds, we were also so bored watching the clouds. ”
"I only remember that when you and I were fighting, you were always jumping in the bamboo forest, relying on your footwork faster than me, so you always used green bamboo to beat me, and you would only have one trick too vain to come and go, and you were so annoyed that you died. ”
"So a plate today?"
"Not coming!"
Ye Qiuqi suddenly retorted, smiled, but stared at Qin Chuan again, "I see that your cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, but you are a little unhappy. What happened to you on that Yunmengze?"
"Hoo ......"
Hearing this, Qin Chuan sighed, "I'll tell you another day." ”
"Good. ”
Ye Qiuqi responded lightly, but did not ask.
Time seems to have returned to a long, long time ago, the two of them just lay idly like this, looking at the clouds on the horizon, without saying a word to each other, but always understood each other's hearts.
It's just a pot of wine.
"I won't waste my time with you. ”
After a long time, Qin Chuan suddenly sat up, as if he remembered something, and suddenly stood up again, and said to Ye Qiuqi, who was pretending to be asleep on the side, "I told Ah Luo to visit the lake today, and I almost forgot about it!"
"Haha!"
Ye Qiuqi laughed twice, raised his hand, and waved:
"Go ahead. ”
......
After Qin Chuan left, Ye Qiuqi still lay alone for a long time.
It wasn't until dusk that he patted his clothes and planned to get up and leave. Now that the major events in Jinzhou have been decided, each gate has returned to its own division one after another, and Shangguan Yao also returned to Luoyan Peak with Fuxi disciples early this morning. If Qin Chuan hadn't stayed here, Ye Qiuqi would have already returned to Anyang.
Now, it's time.
Although it is good to reminisce, what should be grasped is the present.
"Hoo ......"
Ye Qiuqi let out a long sigh of relief and set his eyes on the distant land of Zhongzhou.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, under the dim sky, a flash of light leaped out of nowhere, broke through the air, and scattered a few shimmers of light and flew down in all directions of the Central Plains. Although it is thousands of miles away, it may not be able to see it really, but as long as you deliberately peep, you can see it clearly.
In that direction, from Jingzhou.
“!”
In an instant, Ye Qiuqi's eyebrows sank, and he became extremely solemn.
That's the ...... of the Confucian Garden.
Sky Order!
