Chapter 274: Asking Who is the Human Visitor with a Smile · Five
Feibai was confused and looked at Shi Zhixuan again, but saw the long sword in his hand flashing with green light, and he casually made a sword gesture. Feibai was stunned for a moment, and after careful identification, he asked hesitantly: "... Turn the world around?"
So that's it.
I heard that the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect of Chunyang Palace have been fighting for a long time, and the resentment is quite deep, and there are often disciples who are not on good terms with each other. Xiao Hao is the descendant of the Qi Sect, and most likely he has a bad relationship with this Sword Sect senior brother, so he has never mentioned him a word, and even pretended not to know him.
No wonder when he said that no one could protect Xiao Hao after Taoist Qingxu passed away, Xiao Hao replied "It's hard to say". Perhaps he knew that this Sword Sect senior brother would secretly protect him.
But didn't they say that Chunyang Palace suffered heavy losses after the battle of Chuyun Temple and it has fallen to only one successor? The disciples of the Sword Sect should have died...?
How come there is another Sword Sect disciple still alive?
Feibai couldn't figure it out for a moment, but he could see that although Xiao Hao looked unhappy, he did not have any hostility towards Shi Zhixuan. When Shan Yuru was here just now, the two of them seemed to be communicating very closely, so they must be one of us.
If they are one of us, it will be easy to deal with.
He grabbed Xiao Hao's sleeve and said solemnly: "Brother, you can't go to Wudang."
The master ordered him to pick up Xiao Hao secretly because he didn't want to attract the attention of the Demon Sect. Now that the news has leaked out and Wudang is also in danger, if he takes Xiao Hao back, wouldn't it be a waste of the efforts of the master and the senior Qingxu.
Feibai took a step back and bowed his head and said: "The mountain sect is in trouble, Feibai can't stay out of it. I will write a letter now, and you can take the letter to Cihang Jingzhai and say that the senior sister may be able to protect you."
Xiao Hao looked at him quietly and asked: "What about you?"
Feibai didn't raise his head and said seriously: "I will rush back to Wudang and lend a helping hand to the master."
Xiao Hao shook his head: "How can I stand idly by when I receive a favor from others? Fei Bai immediately stopped him and said, "
Tian Ming Sect has four masters, Jade Owl Soul Stealer, and it is already difficult to deal with Shan Yuru, the Green Sleeve Ring, let alone the other three. Although Wudang can still occupy a place in the White Path Eight Sects Alliance, when it comes to martial arts, we know our own limitations and weigh our own weight..."
He looked at Shi Zhixuan and smiled, "This senior brother His cultivation is far higher than mine. Feibai's practice is shallow. When it comes to protection, this senior brother is more suitable. I will be a burden if I follow you. With his protection, senior brother should be able to reach Cihang Jingzhai smoothly..."
Xiao Hao didn't even raise his eyebrows, and refused bluntly: "No."
Feibai was slightly stunned, and smiled bitterly: "Although Feibai is short-sighted, he can see that senior brother is a top-grade furnace cauldron that is rare in a thousand years. He is a Taoist heart. The mind is clear and bright, and the realm is perfect. Senior Qingxu tried so hard to hide you, how can you let him down and expose you? "How
can you hone your supreme swordsmanship if you hide and hide?"
The senior brother Shan Yuru mentioned should be the "Soul-stealing" talisman. One of them came to find out his bottom line, and the other went to attack Wudang secretly. I think he knew everything about Wudang coming to Chunyang to pick up people.
So he asked: "Does anyone else know that you are here to pick me up?"
Feibai wanted to persuade him not to wade into this muddy water, but this senior brother Chunyang didn't seem to listen at all. He said gloomily:
"Except for my master and the late Senior Qingxu, only my two junior brothers Xiaoban and Tiantong and I should know about this. Chunyang Palace has been...secluded for many years, and few people in the martial arts world know its name. If we were not from the same sect, and Senior Qingxu had a close relationship with my master, Wudang would not have known that Chunyang actually had two senior brothers who were masters."
"...He is really not my senior brother!" Xiao Hao said unhappily.
Feibai glanced at Shi Zhixuan, but saw that the other party had a look of being accustomed to it, as if he had expected Xiao Hao to say this. He calmly sheathed his long sword, which was obviously not an ordinary item, and stared at Xiao Hao leisurely with a smile, which seemed to be quite flattering and submissive. He immediately understood.
It turns out that this senior brother Chun Yang, who is not interested in worldly things, also has a childish and irritable side.
I just don't know what the senior brother from Jian Zong did to irritate Xiao Hao.
Fei Bai's faint sense of awe and distance in his heart dissipated a lot, and he felt a bit closer to people of the same age.
Xiao Hao turned his face away with his sleeves, and he had a vague idea in his mind, "There is a traitor in Wudang, and I already know his identity. Let's go and clean up the door."
Fei Bai was shocked when he heard this, and suddenly remembered Xiao Hao's ability to calculate the secrets of the world, and frowned.
Xiao Hao said: "If you trust me, then come with me; or, I will knock you out and then go find someone else to ask for directions to Wudang."
"..." Fei Bai sighed and said hesitantly: "Is this trip dangerous...what do you think?" It's not that he didn't want Xiao Hao and the others to help, but if he took a wrong step, it might affect the situation of both good and evil, and even the whole world.
Xiao Hao glanced at him, "What if it's a big disaster, what if it's a good fortune? For a cultivator, everything outside of the Tao is false. Seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster is the way to longevity, but it is not the way to virtue."
Fei Bai gritted his teeth and replied, "That's what my senior brother taught me! I'll take you to Wudang now!"
Xiao Hao put two fingers on his lips and whistled a long whistle. A good horse came running from afar, but it was not Xiao Hao's horse Ba Hongchen, but Li Feisha, the original mount of Dao Hao.
The snow-white horse had a silvery mane, just like its owner, and it rubbed Xiao Hao's palm gently and made a purring sound.
Xiao Hao climbed onto the horse and extended his hand to Fei Bai with an expressionless face, "Get on."
Fei Bai was stunned for a moment, "Ah?"
"It has fast feet."
Fei Bai looked at Shi Zhixuan's sharp eyes and said with sweat, "Then... what about this senior brother?"
Xiao Hao said indifferently, "He can keep up."
Fei Bai climbed onto Xiao Hao's horse with trepidation, and showed Shi Zhixuan an awkward but polite smile. Before he could say anything, Xiao Hao had already rushed out with a bite of the horse's belly, and Fei Bai was so frightened that he almost fell off.
Shi Zhixuan followed behind, knowing that Xiao Hao must still be angry about the things in the previous world, and couldn't help laughing secretly. Just as he was wondering when Xiao Hao would calm down, he noticed the sound of horse hooves behind him, and then something arched his back.
He turned around, and Master Ba Hongchen snorted angrily and pushed him forward a few steps.
Even though he had fed him royal grass, Master Ma was still as ferocious as ever.
Hmm... Ah Hao is still...
cold-faced but soft-hearted.
Shi Zhixuan chuckled a few times and got on his horse to chase them.
After galloping for a day and a night, Feibai was exhausted and had to stop to rest.
He leaned against a tree, half dead, and said, "Devil... You two are simply devils..."
Although it was extremely fast to rush like this, it was really unbearable for ordinary people. If he didn't rest now, he would probably fall down before he had a chance to fight with others when he arrived at Wudang.
Xiao Hao said with a guilty conscience, "I'm sorry."
Fei Bai waved his hands weakly, and soon closed his eyes to rest.
Shi Zhixuan finally seized the opportunity and took the initiative to ask for peace: "Are you still angry, Hao?"
Xiao Hao subconsciously wanted to answer, but when the words came to his lips, he suppressed them, closed his eyes and calmed his mind, and kept silent.
Shi Zhixuan sat down next to him and whispered, "I found six new cabinets in your little world, with a lot of new things in them."
Xiao Hao paused for a moment and stiffened a little.
"There is a round little pig with a mechanism. I don't know what mechanism it touched. It rolled around and spit out countless mechanisms from its mouth... There are strange dice, which look very delicate and can be disassembled. I saw the label is called 'Wu Mu Ming Qiong'... There is also a scroll of poetry, which says "Scroll Ear"——"
Xiao Hao's ears turned red and he scolded, "Why are you mentioning these!"
Shi Zhixuan smiled leisurely, "I am very happy."
"..." Xiao Hao endured it and acted like a pure and cold Taoist priest again.
Shi Zhixuan said seriously: "The situation was critical that day. I knew you couldn't win, and I didn't want to embarrass you."
Xiao Hao said angrily: "When the situation was critical, you chose to let me live alone? Have you ever asked me what I think?" If the life and death pigs from the East hadn't arrived in time that day, Xiao Hao didn't dare to think about the consequences.
Shi Zhixuan was silent, and apologized earnestly: "...I really didn't take your thoughts into consideration."
Xiao Hao grabbed his collar and said coldly: "This is not the first time."
Shi Zhixuan was stunned.
"You said you didn't want me to stop you, that you wanted to walk a long road with me, and that I would leave my back to you... but you just left me so easily?"
It was the same in the treasure cave, where you pinned him aside and watched him being almost blown to pieces by the thunder;
it was the same in the silence, where you made a decision on your own, and went to die without giving him a chance to react, leaving him a way to live in front of Fuxi...
You said you would live and die together, but you never gave him a chance to die together, which made people angry.
Xiao Hao didn't want to be the one left behind!
Shi Zhixuan finally realized the problem and admitted his mistake decisively: "I was wrong, there won't be a next time."
Xiao Hao was still angry, and he let go of him coldly and meditated.
Shi Zhixuan knew that he had already revealed the matter in his heart, but he would not give in for a while, so he said to the side: "You are restless, and forcing yourself to enter a state of concentration is not conducive to cultivation."
Xiao Hao was silent for a while after hearing this, then he opened his eyes and asked: "No matter what world it is, there is a cycle of cause and effect, and reincarnation, right?"
In fact, there is always a knot in his heart
that he can't let go. In the previous world, he harmed many innocent people in the lower world to achieve his goal, but because of his special body, he ran to the next world safely, not bound by the heavenly law and exempted from retribution, and he was uneasy.
This uneasy feeling was previously enlightened by Shi Zhixuan, and it was not a demon obstacle, but the sense of guilt lingered all the time.
Xiao Hao asked himself that he was not afraid of killing people. After going through so many worlds, he had long regarded life and death very lightly. But he could still kill evil people and enemies, and be stained with the blood of innocent people...
He touched his heart and said, "I know the crux of the problem. In recent days, I have been chanting prayers for them day and night, wishing them to pass away soon. But I still can't adjust my state of mind."
Shi Zhixuan looked a little gloomy, and frowned, saying, "Now that Ahao has left there, the cause and effect should have been resolved." He paused, and soon smiled and said, "And it is not difficult to solve Ahao's problem."
Xiao Hao looked at him curiously.
"Whether it is the devil or the Tao in this world, the fundamental purpose is to transcend existence and non-existence, positive and negative, life and death. It's just that the devil and the Tao have completely different ways of achieving this. For example, there is a long road with one end for life and the other for death. If you want to escape from this road, you either go to the place of life or the place of death."
"Those who seek the Tao are committed to returning to their roots, which is the way to seek 'life'; but there must be death after life, and there must be negative after positive. Those who fall into the devil are the way to seek 'death'. Therefore, those who practice Taoism do good deeds and accumulate virtue, which is beneficial to 'life'; those who practice magic harm sentient beings, which is beneficial to 'death'." [Note]
The author has something to say: Shivering Fei Xiaobai: No, no, no, immortal seal method...? ! !
Shivering Fei Xiaobai: I seem to have heard something incredible...
Demonic Taoist: We are not the only ones who are scared, so happy.
Feibai: Meh QAQ
