True or False?
For most people, it's the only criterion they have in mind when it comes to doing things. The full-text and ad-free novels are all biquge.info on Aishang Novel Network
However, people who do things with "right" and "wrong" as the standard will inevitably end up with mediocre or old-fashioned evaluations.
Because there is no absolute "right" and "wrong" in this world. The right and wrong of the act is only based on the parties.
And the heroes, such as the Soul Transformation Sect's leader Hualing Zhenjun three thousand years ago, such as the Demon Emperor Demon Emperor who once ravaged the entire immortal cultivation world, or the Demon Ancestor who forced the immortal cultivators into a desperate situation ten thousand years ago, their standard of doing things is different.
That's what I want to do, and what I don't want to do.
So much for.
Do what you want, have no scruples, and are at ease but inevitably cholera.
So they became heroes.
As for the so-called "heroes", they have a different standard of doing things.
What I should do, and what I shouldn't do.
It's as simple as that.
However, heroes and heroes, they are sometimes just separated by a line.
Seeing that after the black clouds and mist separated, Zhou Huahai, the Taishang Protector of Jiuhua Gate, appeared, and these Jiuhua Mountain monks who had just rushed back from Zhan Tai were all greatly surprised, and they made a burst of noise for a while, and their voices were full of incredulity.
Zhou Huahai, wasn't he left on Zhan Tai by Zhang Hualing as a hostage? Why did he appear here again at this time?
And what is going on with the mountain protection array of Jiuhua Mountain? Why did he and the others fall into a vast black fog?
Jiuhua Mountain. What the hell is going on?
Faintly, these Jiuhua disciples and elders had a hint of foreboding in their hearts in a daze.
But Zhang Hualing didn't seem surprised by Zhou Huahai's appearance, but just glanced at Zhou Huahai deeply, and Zhou Huahai looked at Zhang Hualing without showing weakness.
As the two looked at each other, the monks couldn't help but gradually put away their voices of surprise and discussion. also quietly looked at the two of them.
Time seems to have begun to stand still in the eye to eye.
Or after a moment, or after a long time, Zhou Huahai seemed to think of something. His eyes flickered slightly, and then he looked away first in the eye with Zhang Hualing.
"You're finally here. Zhou Huahai looked at the black fog around him and said slowly.
Hearing Zhou Huahai's words, even the most sluggish disciple discovered that something was wrong at this time.
In the past. Zhou Huahai, as the protector of Jiuhua Mountain, is in charge of the rewards and punishments of Jiuhua Mountain and the cultivation of all low-level disciples, and can be said to be the second person in Jiuhua Mountain in addition to Zhang Hualing, but although he is usually in a high position, and he is usually quite majestic and old-fashioned, Zhou Huahai has always been respectful to Zhang Hualing, the head of Jiuhua, not only every time he meets Zhang Hualing, he will bow and salute, respectfully and respectfully call him "senior brother in charge", and he also pays great attention to a respectful and humble section on weekdays. For those who behaved irreverently towards Zhang Hualing. He was even angrier than Zhang Hualing himself, and the punishment was very severe.
Therefore, how respectful and loyal Zhou Huahai is to Zhang Hualing, not only in Jiuhua Mountain, but also in the entire immortal cultivation world, some malicious people even jokingly call Zhou Huahai "Zhang Hualing's loyal dog".
But at this time, this "Zhang Hualing's loyal dog" not only did not show the slightest respect when he spoke to Zhang Hualing, did not bow down, but also commensurate with "you", and his tone was faintly revealing a domineering taste.
So it's no wonder that the monks of Jiuhua Mountain feel that something is wrong.
But Zhang Hualing was not the slightest angry at Zhou Huahai's disrespect. As if he didn't show the slightest surprise at Zhou Huahai's sudden appearance, he just nodded lightly, and then said, "Yes, I'm here, this day." Have you been waiting for a long time?"
looked at Zhang Hualing's face that was still ancient and modern. Zhou Huahai suddenly felt a burst of anger in his heart. It's like the anger of a screenwriter who has worked hard to write a script, only to find out that the actors didn't perform the way they envisioned it on the day the script was performed. But Zhou Huahai quickly suppressed the anger in his heart. The look of anger flashed in his eyes, and then he regained his composure, and replied softly, "Yes, I have been waiting for a long time, three hundred and ninety-one years and two hundred and twenty days. ”
Hearing Zhou Huahai's words, Zhang Hualing's face finally showed a surprised expression, and he said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be dissatisfied on the first day I became the head of Jiuhua, and I didn't expect that the dissatisfaction in your heart would be so deep. ”
Three hundred and ninety-one years and two hundred and twenty days, Zhou Huahai actually remembered the time so clearly, so you can imagine how deep the resentment in his heart is.
After seeing the look of surprise flashing on Zhang Hualing's face, Zhou Huahai should have been happy, but after hearing Zhang Hualing's words, the anger that Zhou Huahai had managed to hold back just now finally broke out because it was blazing again. Lin Lei
"Yes, from the time the master announced that you were the new head of Jiuhua Mountain, I was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied, and even angry!!" After slowly saying this, Zhou Huahai's voice suddenly became louder: "I entered the master with you, why are you the senior brother and I am the junior brother? Later, after you and I began to cultivate immortals, my skills are deeper than yours, and my prestige among the senior brothers is higher than yours, why do the elders value you more? What is there that I am not in charge of? Everything that the master has given me, which of them has not been done perfectly? Why is it that at the end of the day, you have become the master, and I have to be subservient to you? Just because you can usually express some strange opinions to please the master? In this way, after you become the master, where can I be satisfied? Where can I be convinced? You say!!"
When Zhou Huahai said these words, he became extremely excited. The voice couldn't help but get louder and louder, and in the end, under his roar, the endless black clouds and mist in the "Nine Extremes Array" were also stirred and fluctuated, and the majestic expression on weekdays seemed extremely distorted and hideous at this time.
It seems that there are more than three hundred and ninety years of grudges. It's going to be all vented in this roar.
After roaring, Zhou Huahai's feelings finally calmed down again, as if he had been persuaded by what he had just said, and his eyes finally met Zhang Hualing's eyes again. And said word by word: "It's been almost four hundred years, and I've endured it long enough." Now, I want to take back those qiē that originally belonged to me. ”
When he said this. His expression was calm and his tone was cold, but the resentment contained in it was far stronger than the roar before, which made all the monks of Jiuhua Mountain who were listening to him feel a chill in their hearts.
On the other side, Zhang Hualing was just silently listening to Zhou Huahai's roar, without refuting or getting angry, but a trace of sadness and sadness quickly flashed in his eyes.
And those Jiuhua elders and elite disciples of Jiuhua Mountain behind him. All of them were horrified, even more frightened than after they knew about the change in Huandao before, and even when Zhou Huahai roared just now, he was unaware of the earthquake pain in his chest and abdomen caused by the power.
Zhou Huahai, a figure known as "Zhang Hualing's loyal dog," is now going so far as to compete with Zhang Hualing for the position of head of the family? For the monks of Jiuhua Mountain, who are accustomed to Zhou Huahai's incomparable support for Zhang Hualing, this is simply the most impossible thing.
But now, the most unlikely thing has finally happened.
Or in this world, nothing is impossible. Something, even if it seems impossible, is simply because the possibility of its occurrence is very hidden. Just like Zhou Huahai's resentment against Zhang Hualing for four hundred years.
And some of the elders behind Zhang Hualing showed anger on their faces after hearing Zhou Huahai's words, and they just wanted to reprimand Zhou Huahai, but after seeing Zhou Huahai's gloomy and crazy eyes, they couldn't help but swallow the words that had come to their mouths.
And Zhang Hualing was silent for a while. Finally spoke again.
"I always thought you would betray me. It's because you are tough by nature, you can't get used to my forbearance policy in charge of Jiuhua Mountain for hundreds of years, but you didn't expect it to be because of this. Zhang Hualing sighed. "Now. I just want to ask you three things. ”
A hint of smugness flashed on Zhou Huahai's face, and he said, "You want to ask me, I was obviously left on Zhan Tai by you, why do I appear here now?"
Zhang Hualing shook his head and said lightly: "No, that Zhou Huahai on Zhan Tai is just a stand-in, I have long known about this, and the reason for leaving them in Zhan Tai is to prevent them from suddenly killing and injuring innocent disciples at this time." ”
Hearing Zhang Hualing's words, although Zhou Huahai's face was still calm, he couldn't help but stir up stormy waves in his heart, and suddenly there was a feeling in his heart that things were no longer under his control, and the original self-confidence in his heart was also shaken, he didn't like this feeling.
But thinking of his arrangements these days, Zhou Huahai's mood regained his calmness again, and he just asked solemnly: "You already knew that the person on Zhan Tai was my stand-in, and you already knew that I was going to betray you?"
Zhang Hualing nodded slightly, and said softly: "Not only that, but I have even guessed how those things happened on Huan Island, you are cooperating with that person, right? Only that person can shape the stand-in so realistically, I can't even notice it, I think after so many years, his research has also made a great breakthrough, right? But aren't you afraid of setting yourself on fire when you do this?"
Zhou Huahai endured the horror in his heart and asked slowly, "How do you know that I am cooperating with that person?"
Zhang Hualing sighed: "Every time you and that person's representative discuss cooperation strategies in Yangling Mountain outside Jiuhua Mountain, I hide from the side and watch, and I naturally know these things." ”
A hint of shock flashed in Zhou Huahai's eyes, and he asked incredulously: "You know everything, then why haven't you stopped me all these years?"
Zhang Hualing said softly: "It was my mistake, at that time I felt that although you wanted to overthrow me, it was just because you couldn't get used to the various strategies I had implemented in Jiuhua Mountain over the years, so although you would betray me." But it will never endanger the entire Jiuhua Mountain. And you and I have cooperated in the management of Jiuhua Mountain for so many years, so I can't bear to deal with you. Coupled with the fact that I knew you were working with that person, but I didn't know the specific plan, it would be better to keep the danger under control than to dispose of you before and let that person carry out other plans that I didn't know about. That's why I haven't touched you for decades. ”
Zhang Hualing paused, and then continued: "But it turns out that I did something wrong in this matter, because I made a mistake in judgment and tolerated you. Now it has caused so much damage to Jiuhua Mountain. Speaking of this, a trace of sadness flashed on Zhang Hualing's face, and he said, "Senior Brother Zhou, I advise you." You also know how dangerous that person is. You're using him, and he's using you. Cooperating with him is no different from seeking skin with a tiger, and in the end, he is likely to be accused by him, and he will never be able to turn over. ”
When Zhang Hualing spoke, Zhou Huahai's eyes kept fluctuating, and he seemed to show a trace of remorse in a trance, but in the end, he said slowly: "It's useless to say anything now." Jiuhua Mountain, I'm going to decide. And I don't have to worry about that person, I already thought about how to deal with it when I was working with him. ”
Then, Zhou Huahai stared at Zhang Hualing's eyes again and continued: "Originally, I was going to trap you in the Nine Extremes Array like this, but thinking that you and I have known each other for so many years, I shouldn't let you die so unclear, so in the end, I couldn't help but come out to see you." But I didn't expect you to understand a qiē. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Huahai looked away again and said, "Just now you said that you have three questions, you can ask them now." I will leave after I answer, if you can survive this Nine Extremes Array, I will wait for you in the Hualing Palace. ”
After Zhang Hualing heard Zhou Huahai's words, he just nodded silently, but did not persuade anything. It seems that hope has been abandoned. Just ask, "First question, you do it." Even if you succeed, you can only get a discredited Jiuhua Mountain, and the position of the Holy Land is not guaranteed, have you considered this price?"
Zhou Huahai chuckled lightly and replied lightly: "Why does everyone ignore my wisdom so much? Can you think of these things? Don't you know? Soon after you left Zhan Tai, my double will push all the things that happened on Huan Dao on you, and now I have rushed to Jiuhua Mountain with all the monks on Zhan Tai. ”
"And when they arrived, they thought you were dead, but it didn't matter, that person had already made a double for you. Then in front of the monks of the world, my stand-in will kill your stand-in, and play a good show of righteous annihilation, when I can not only become the new head of Jiuhua Mountain as a matter of course, but also block the mouth of the people of the world, so that the reputation of Jiuhua Mountain will not be damaged, and the location of the holy land will naturally not be lost. ”
"As for the problem of the great loss of strength you mentioned, you also know that that person's research has made great breakthroughs over the years, and he has given me a way to make a low-level cultivator greatly increase his strength in a short period of time. At that time, the strength of my Jiuhua Mountain will not only not have any loss, but will also be greatly enhanced. And I will not only become the head of the Holy Land, but also the head of the first sect in the world. ”
Seeing Zhou Huahai's voice speak, there was a faint hint of madness on his face, Zhang Hualing sighed again, but did not refute anything, but continued to ask: "Second question, what happened to those elders who stayed on Jiuhua Mountain before? The corpse of Senior Brother Ma on Huandao, but really? Also, I know that Senior Brother Hou will never lie to me, why did he do that just now?"
Zhou Huahai said lightly: "Those who follow me prosper, and those who go against me die." Haven't you heard this sentence? Those old guys who stayed in Jiuhua Mountain, all of them who supported me are alive and well, and their strength has greatly increased. And those diehards of yours, I have let them all fall into reincarnation. Ma Huaguang, that old guy, not only didn't agree with me being the new leader, but also went to Zhan Tai to complain to you, so I let him go, and I don't know if he finally complained to you. As for Senior Brother Hou, he is indeed loyal to you, but as an elder who protects the mountain, the Nine Extremes Array is unable to do without him in a short period of time, so I have no choice but to use the Regent Technique to control him. ”
Hearing Zhou Huahai's words, Zhang Hualing's eyes finally couldn't help but flash a trace of anger, because he knew those elders who stayed on Jiuhua Mountain. At this time, there must have been heavy casualties, and Jiuhua Mountain had finally recovered its vitality in the past four hundred years, and it was seriously injured again. Thinking of this, Zhang Hualing's mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to reprimand. In the end, he held back. Because he knows that at this time, reprimand can no longer solve the problem.
Zhang Hualing, Zhou Huahai. This pair of Jiuhuashan's former golden partners, but from today onwards, they can only leave one.
"Last question, if you can successfully kill me this time, then what are you going to do with them?" Zhang Hualing's tone at this time had become extremely indifferent. He asked, pointing to those elders and elite disciples behind him.
After Zhou Huahai heard Zhang Hualing's question, he was slightly stunned and said, "If you don't say it, I'll forget about them." ”
Saying that, Zhou Huahai moved his eyes to the Jiuhua elders and elite disciples behind Zhang Hualing, and said slowly: "I can tell you very clearly, from today onwards, I am the new head of Jiuhua Mountain, and Zhang Hualing is certain to die today." Because I have now mastered the Nine Extremes Array. And you also know how powerful the Nine Extremes Array is, with your strength, it is absolutely impossible to survive in the Nine Extremes Array, now you have to think carefully, do you follow me to make a name for yourself in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm in the future, or follow this Hualing to die without a place to be buried?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Huahai smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves, and a bunch of black pills appeared in his hand, and then he said, "If you plan to follow me, come to me to take a Heavenly Spirit Pill and swallow it." After that, I'll make you more powerful. And if you plan to follow Zhang Hualing, then you will stay where you are, quietly waiting for the Nine Extremes Array to launch. I'm going to give you ten breaths of time to think about it now. ”
After Zhou Huahai said these words, everyone woke up from the shock in the conversation between Zhou Huahai and Zhang Hualing just now. Looking at Zhou Huahai's cold eyes when he looked at himself and the others, the monks didn't believe that Jiuhua Mountain would really undergo such a change.
Although immortal cultivators don't dream. But the monks felt as if they were in a dream. A qiē is so unreal.
Especially Zhou Huahai's apprentices, Li Yuhan and Sheng Yushan. At this time, the disbelief in my heart was even worse than others, looking at Zhou Huahai and Zhang Hualing, his expression was hesitant.
But Zhou Huahai didn't give everyone time to hesitate, and began to count coldly: "Ten people don't move, and everyone is still in shock at this time."
"Nine!!"
Still no one moved.
The monks finally reacted, and there was a slight commotion in the crowd, but no one moved. It's just like Sheng Yushan and Li Yuhan, looking at Zhou Huahai for a while, and Zhang Hualing for a while, with a hesitant look.
At the same time, Xu Qingfan in the crowd was also thinking about his whereabouts.
As a mountain protection array that has guarded Jiuhua Mountain for thousands of years, the power of the "Nine Pole Array" is undoubted, and even if he is in it, even if he is taken care of by Zhang Hualing and other elders, the hope of surviving is extremely slim.
Not to mention Zhou Huahai's ruthless character who doesn't care about the life or death of others, Xu Qingfan doesn't even despise it, and he doesn't know when he will be abandoned by him. Moreover, Xu Qingfan didn't believe that the "Heavenly Spirit Pill" in his hand was used to increase the strength of the monks, thinking that it should be a kind of poison, and Zhou Huahai would use this to control the immortal cultivators of Jiuhua Mountain in the future.
In this way, once he takes refuge in Zhou Huahai, he is equal to a puppet in his hands, and he must be controlled by him to do something that he was not willing to do, so how is it different from death?
And staying by Zhang Hualing's side, with Zhang Hualing's strength and mind, there is still a chance of survival.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingfan's eyes became firm, and feeling the inquiring glances that Jin Qinghan and Lu Qingshang threw at him, Xu Qingfan slowly shook his head.
Still no one moved.
"Three!!" At this time, Zhou Huahai's voice already contained a trace of anger.
And at this time, someone finally flew towards Zhou Huahai quickly, flew to his side, picked up the black pill in Zhou Huahai's hand and swallowed it in his mouth, and then stood behind Zhou Huahai with his head down, not daring to look at Zhang Hualing at all.
And this person's actions also seemed to trigger a chain reaction, more and more people quickly flew towards Zhou Huahai, and stood behind Zhou Huahai after swallowing the black pill. This is true even for some elders who are usually highly respected.
Suddenly, the disciples and elders behind Zhang Hualing suddenly decreased by half. But the disciples who stayed behind were all firm supporters of Zhang Hualing.
And Zhang Hualing didn't stop him in the slightest, but his figure couldn't help but become a little lonely.
When Zhou Huahai spit out this word, an elder who usually had a high reputation in Jiuhua Mountain slowly walked out from behind Zhang Hualing and walked towards Zhou Huahai.
Seeing this elder's movements, Zhou Huahai's face showed a hint of a smile, but Zhang Hualing's body couldn't help but shake, which showed the weight of this elder.
But when the elder walked three steps away from Zhou Huahai, a change protruded.
"Traitor to death!!" The elder suddenly glowed with a powerful and dazzling golden light, and a golden short sword quickly stabbed towards Zhou Huahai under his control!!
