Chapter 15: 100 Days of Cooking for the Villain Master - Day 15
Zhao Miaomiao didn’t know how to comment on this matter, but she subconsciously felt that Chi Ying was not a bad person.
If Chi Ying wanted to, he could destroy this sect in one day. Why would he wait on the mountain every day and let these disciples bother him?
After the head of Nanhua Sect finished counting 16,756 disciples, he also came.
He was very happy and said, "Yes, not a single disciple is missing.
Everyone returned safely.
In addition to the two who broke their legs, three who were accidentally blinded by their companions, six who suffered serious internal injuries, and nine who were only breathing their last breath.
Everyone else is fine.”
Sect Leader Nanhua felt that this was a good result. Every time they went to attack their master, the disciples’ performance got better and better.
But when he entered the kitchen, he saw four old men crying.
He asked, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, what's wrong with you?
Could it be that those injured disciples are all your disciples?"
The other old men shook their heads and turned away to wipe their tears.
When Zhao Miaomiao saw Sect Leader Nanhua, she remembered what Sect Leader Nanhua had told her about the forbidden area, so she asked Nanhua, "By the way, Sect Leader Nanfu Battery, you said before that a disciple went to Chiying's forbidden area and then disappeared.
How did you know about this?"
The Nanhua Sect Leader replied, “Someone saw it.
Unfortunately, someone happened to see the young disciple going to the master's forbidden area.
That disciple should have gone to the back mountain to collect herbs that day.
Then, as he was walking, he accidentally came to the master's forbidden area.
Then he disappeared.”
Zhao Miaomiao asked: "Who saw it?"
The Nanhua Sect Leader thought for a moment and said, "That landowner."
Zhao Miaomiao: "The landlord who came to you with the land deed to ask for the land?"
The Nanhua Sect Leader nodded, then sighed and said, "In fact, the immortal cultivation sect is far from being as glamorous as everyone sees.
It costs money to support our disciples, it costs money to feed them, it costs money to practice martial arts, and it costs a lot of money to forge swords.
Without money, our sect would not be able to survive.
Everyone's understanding of immortal cultivation sects generally comes from the Shushan Sect.
Wearing white clothes and holding a sword, he fights for the people, exorcise demons and monsters, and looks very majestic.
But the story does not mention the story behind the Shushan School.
Before establishing the Shushan Sect, the leader was the only son of a wealthy businessman.
One of the uncles in the Shushan Sect was a prince before joining the sect.
They also have other ways to make money.
Selling talismans, selling skills, selling abilities.
This is true for all sects of immortal cultivation.
Before finally becoming an immortal, everyone is inevitably trapped by worldly money.
So we need money, we are poor.”
Number 99 was confused and asked the Nanhua Sect Leader, "What does what you said have to do with Master?
This only proves that you are poor.”
The Nanhua Sect Leader continued, “Of course it has something to do with Master.
Because originally, our sect is in a very good location, and there is a place in the back mountain where very rare medicinal herbs grow.
One plant is worth a thousand gold coins and can cure hundreds of diseases.
But that place was designated as a forbidden area by the master, and no one can enter.
No one can pick those herbs.
As long as you go in, you will die.
Unfortunately, this precious medicinal herb was spotted by the landowner, which led to the subsequent land turmoil."
Zhao Miaomiao remembered Chi Ying saying that he had mastered some magical skills, then opened up a place, and then began to be attacked by people from the sect.
So the precious medicinal herbs may not have grown in that place originally.
It was after Chi Ying mastered his skills that the place reopened and that the medicinal herb grew and became like that.
So the relationship between the sect and Chi Ying became like this simply because of money?
But judging from Chi Ying's personality, he probably doesn't understand what money is.
Zhao Miaomiao was thinking about it when Old Man No. 4, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "It's not just because of this.
There is a secret that I have never told.
But today I must tell you.
Master... he is not only a cold-blooded and heartless person.
He even took action and killed a disciple!
I saw it with my own eyes!
Right next to the forbidden area!"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
The other three old men hurriedly asked Old Man Number Four, "Fourth Junior Brother, is what you said true?"
The Nanhua Sect Leader also stepped forward and asked, "Fourth Junior Brother, when did this happen? How did you see it? Who was killed?"
Old man No. 4 cried and said, "Do you still remember the child who was abandoned by his family because of smallpox and then brought back by us?
That's the child.
We gave him breathing aid and helped him survive the smallpox.
He took medicine all the time to take care of his body, and he finally grew to the age of seven.
He has always been well-behaved and sensible. At the age of seven, he knew how to share the burden of the sect.
In addition to practicing martial arts every day, I would take the initiative to fetch water, grow vegetables, and collect herbs.
That night, when I was checking the ward, I saw that he was not in the room, so I went to look for him.
Then, as I was walking in the back mountain, I heard the child's screams.
I quickly ran over to take a look.
I saw Master standing in front of the child and waving at him.
Then the child closed his eyes and fell down!
Just as I was about to rush out, Master disappeared.
By the time I ran to the child, he was already dead, just like that!"
Everyone was a little surprised.
After hearing this, Old Man No. 3 felt a little unsteady on his feet. He took a step back, holding onto the table and said, "I... I always thought that he was not in good health, so..."
Old Man Number Four said, “At that time we were still trying to gather money and were having a headache over the land issue.
In order not to embarrass or upset everyone, I didn’t say anything.
I just took the child back to his room and thought he was someone who committed suicide out of concern for the sect."
Old Man Number One was indignant. "One day or another, I will kill Master and avenge these innocent disciples!!"
Zhao Miaomiao and No. 99 stood aside without saying anything.
The Nanhua Sect Leader said to Zhao Miaomiao, "Do you understand now why we must kill our Master?
Our master doesn't take us or the Wanshan Sect seriously at all!
He is not worthy of us calling him Master!
What's good about fish? Disciple, are you willing to join us now?
With your help, we will definitely be able to kill Master and avenge those innocent and pitiful disciples."
