Chapter 124: One day when swordsmen meet, don’t hold back
Looking at Pang Hong’s slowly leaving figure, Lin Qingyi praised: “Brother Pei is a good disciple.”
Lin Qingyi There was no compliment. He had spent a lot of time with Pang Hong during this period and knew what this young man was thinking.
He also knew that the other party had a dagger on him at all times, as if he was always on guard against using him to deal with Pei Xuanjing if he used it.
Lin Qingyi not only didn't mind this, but actually praised it in his heart.
Although he may not be able to do this for a disciple who is sensible, knows how to advance and retreat, and is willing to sacrifice, it does not prevent him from appreciating it.
Pei Xuanjing smiled. After listening to Lin Qingyi's description, he also felt that Pang Hong was good, and he was very satisfied with the other party's actions.
Although it was unintentional to give him guidance at the beginning, his cultivation of him was not false.
And after being together for so long, even kittens and puppies will inevitably develop feelings for each other, so he asked Lin Qingyi to take care of each other.
He has already been prepared. Even if the other party is afraid of what happened to him and is unwilling to leave with him, he will ask Lin Qingyi to take good care of the other party and prevent him from being involved in this turmoil.
Of course, if this is the case, just think that you have misjudged the person, and the friendship between the two parties will naturally be wiped out, and there will no longer be any involvement.
However, since he can follow decisively, this is enough to prove that Pei Xuanjing has not misjudged the person and is worthy of his continued training.
After this point, Pei Xuanjing will naturally intensify his training of Pang Hong, truly treating him as his disciple, and it may not be a bad idea to pass on his mantle one day.
The two of them sat on the stone bench of the pavilion. Lin Qingyi poured a cup of tea for them, and then said: "In the past few decades, Lin feels that the most fortunate thing is meeting you, Brother Pei. "
Pei Xuanjing smiled and shook his head: "Brother Lin is joking."
Unexpectedly, Lin Qingyi suddenly said seriously: "Brother Pei, don't think I'm joking. This is from the bottom of my heart."
"If Brother Pei hadn't taken action in the first place, Na Mi would have been arrested Lin was already dead when he taught the Dharma protector Shen Tuhan." Lin Qingyi recalled his first acquaintance with Pei Xuanjing, and he sighed: "If it weren't for Brother Pei, the grass on my grave would probably be three feet high. "
Pei Xuanjing declined: "The reason why I took action was because of my grudges with the Maitreya Cult, not..."
Lin Qingyi shook his head and interrupted: "No matter what, Brother Pei's action will save the life. There is no doubt that the names of me and my brothers were revealed.”
Even if I didn’t know it at the time, I later became aware of some of the grievances between Pei Xuanjing and the Maitreya Sect.
But so what, no matter what, there is no objection to the fact that Pei Xuanjing saved Lin Qingyi's life.
Pei Xuanjing remained silent and listened to Lin Qingyi continue: "Later, when the Yin Division stronghold was cleared and surrendered, Brother Pei saved me again."
"Actually, if we calculate it carefully, if it weren't for Brother Pei's many times Without help, I wouldn’t be where I am today,” Lin Qingyi said.
If it weren’t for Pei Xuanjing’s help many times, he would not have made meritorious deeds one after another, and would have reached the power and status he has now.
The past two years have been compared to his previous ten years of hard work.
Pei Xuanjing smiled and said: "Brother Lin is serious."
The two sat there like this, talking about many things in the past.
In fact, sometimes if you think about it carefully, a lot of things have happened in just two years.
After a long time, Lin Qingyi finally said what he wanted to say: "Brother Pei, you have helped me a lot in the past two years. Your kindness is like a sea. I should keep it in my heart."
But.
Pei Xuanjing added in his heart.
"However, today is different from the past. Although you and I are friends, we have different positions. I live in a temple, and you live in the world. You are a bandit wanted by the court, and I am an official of the court. Although there are Friendship, but there will inevitably be a day when swordsmen meet. I just hope that by then, everyone will be his own master, and I hope Brother Pei will not be weird and show no mercy." After Lin Qingyi said this, he stood up and bowed. He had received too much kindness from Pei Xuanjing, so he naturally wanted to repay it.
If Pei Xuanjing has always been on the side of the court, and the two of them are ministers in the same palace, there will naturally be opportunities to reciprocate in the future.
But now Pei Xuanjing has fallen out with the court, and their positions are on opposite sides.
As a royal guard, he can have personal affairs, but he cannot forget his duties.
Although Jin Yiwei has not yet participated in it, it will be a matter of time.
This also means that by that time, the two of them will inevitably meet with swords.
Pei Xuanjing's expression became serious when he saw Lin Qingyi being so solemn. He held Lin Qingyi up and said, "Brother Lin, don't worry. If one day, I will definitely not show mercy to fulfill your responsibilities."
At this moment, Pei Xuanjing’s understanding of Lin Qingyi changed from the past.
If before, he thought Lin Qingyi was just a bureaucrat who yearned for power. Although there was some friendship between the two parties, it was nothing more than that.
But now, these words made him look at him with admiration.
Suddenly, Pei Xuanjing understood a little bit why even though there were many forces secretly separatist in the world during the six hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, they did not dare to have the intention to rebel.
Not because of anything else, but precisely because people like Lin Qingyi exist.
We must know that the founding of the Ming Dynasty far surpassed that of the previous dynasties, and there were so many supporters like Lin Qingyi.
That's why he said these words.
This is his respect for Lin Qingyi, even if Lin Qingyi now is not his enemy in terms of strength.
The two of them dispersed and returned home.
From now on, although the two still have friendship, they are strangers because of their positions. If they meet again in the future, they will probably be at war with each other.
The next day, Pei Xuanjing hung a sword on his waist and took Pang Hong into an inn again.
After waiting for the two of them to enter the inn, it didn't take long before Qingyangzi came to the door again as if he knew they would settle here.
Pang Hong returned to his room, Qingyangzi and Pei Xuanjing sat opposite each other.
Pei Xuanjing sat there quietly, not in a hurry, and waited calmly for Qingyangzi to speak.
Seeing Pei Xuanjing sitting quietly like a mountain, unmoved at all, looking calm and relaxed, Qingyangzi couldn't help but admire the other person's state of mind.
After a long time, Qingyangzi took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Pei Xuanjing.
"You take a look at what's inside first. After reading it, if there's anything you don't understand, I'll fill it in for you."
Pei Xuanjing put down the teacup in his hand and took the letter from the other party's hand. , but he didn't open it in a hurry, but slowly opened his mouth and said a word.
"Senior, I am curious about one thing. Did the Zhenwu Sect participate in the destruction of the Shenxiao Sect?"
Hearing Pei Xuanjing's sudden words, Qingyangzi suddenly said Stunned.
