Chapter 105 Resentment? I blew up the earth!
Cheng Mai kept looking at Shang Xingjian and seemed to see a hint of his conscience.
Shang Xingjian finally put down the cup, stood up and walked to Cheng Mai's side, "You don't have much magic power now, so it's normal for you not to ring."
Cheng Mai breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly glared at Shang Xingjian, "You did it on purpose, you made me nervous on purpose!"
Why is this person so evil?
"Return the broken bell to you." Cheng Mai became angrier as he thought about it, and slapped the evil bell directly on Shang Xingjian's body.
But as soon as she turned around and left, the bell automatically returned to her hand.
Cheng Mai: "..."
"It has nothing to do with me, I didn't do anything." Shang Xingjian raised his hand and swore, walked to Cheng Mai, lowered his eyes and looked at the bell that fell in her hand, "hold it first, it will be useful."
< br>
After Shang Jian finished speaking, he turned back to look at the abbot, "Thank you, abbot. Let's put the grudges here to rest."
"Amitabha." The abbot clasped his hands and sent the person away, then continued to meditate and chant sutras.
After Cheng Mai and Shang Xingjian left, Cheng Mai looked back at the closed door, "Who is this abbot? No, you said he lived for a thousand years?"
"He is just a human being. How can he live for a thousand years? It's just a grudge in the mortal world." Shang Xingjian continued to walk back with Cheng Mai, "Hanshan Temple a thousand years ago was still an abandoned temple without incense. If it weren't for the golden dragon here, Unfortunately, I didn’t know there was a temple here.”
Shang Xingjian explained to Cheng Mai as they walked, "I calculated that the real dragon would be in trouble. When I arrived, he had already been decapitated. I had no choice but to take it into my side first. However, it was an accident that I encountered the evil bell."< br>
Cheng Mai listened carefully. This was the first time that Shang Jian took the initiative to tell her about the past.
"Back then, after the battle of the Void Mirror Crack, the gods were extinguished. Apart from part of their spiritual consciousness, their spiritual weapons were also scattered in the world. The true gods were not there. In fact, the spiritual weapons were just decorations and had no use. It happened that a poor wanderer passed by at this time. Old monk, I decided to give Hanshan Temple to him at the cost of guarding the evil bell until I come back to get it.”
"Then the monk agreed to you? Are you going to stop traveling on a budget?"
"That's not true. That monk has an unfinished fate. He was the lord of a country and was considered a wise king. He created a peaceful and prosperous age for decades. He had an official who was known as Mr. Xiyue. This man was so intelligent that he was close to a demon. The monks are also like-minded and share the same goals.”
The more Cheng Mai listened, the more he felt something was wrong. This relationship...
"That monk never married, which was not a wrong thing at all. However, he was the king of a country. Suddenly, Young Master Xiyue became the target of public criticism. After all, he did not escape the verbal quarrels and committed suicide in court."
< br>
Cheng Mai was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"That monk is also a cruel man. He became a monk on the spot and never cared about the affairs of the court."
Cheng Mai: "..." She didn't know how much pressure these two people were under at that time, so there was no way to judge whether what this person did was right or wrong.
"The peaceful and prosperous era collapsed overnight, and the infant nephew was pushed to the throne. Soon the world was in trouble, and the debt was placed on Master Xiyue."
"Why?" Cheng Mai was shocked. Wasn't Master Xiyue forced to death?
"It was because of his death that the old monk chose to give up his position as the king of a country, which led to the people's deprivation of life. This is the reason." Shang Xingjian stopped and looked at Cheng Mai, "In these decades when the people were in dire straits, There was a general who slaughtered the city.”
Cheng Mai suddenly looked at Shang Xingjian. "The people are in dire straits, the country is in ruins, the barbarians are invading, killing and bullying the people of the Central Plains. All the invaded cities will become hell on earth, and the imperial court has long since lost the power to resist. There is a general who guarded the city gate for dozens of days. When it was about to be broken, he ordered the whole city to be massacred, but he stood on the city wall and was pierced by thousands of arrows and died."
"If Master Xiyue had not died, none of this would have happened." Shang Xingjian told her why, "If Master Xiyue had not died, tens of millions of people in the Central Plains would not have died, let alone those soldiers who desperately defended the territory. Death, that’s why.”
"It was the secular world, it was public opinion, it was the quarreling courtiers who drove him to death, but God will not condemn the secular world or public opinion. There is never any reason for the way of heaven. To seek political power in one's position is to Principle, no matter when and where you are, you must remember to do your best according to your position. ”
Cheng Mai was slightly dazed, and even felt a little cold. She looked straight at Shang Xingjian, listening to Shang Xingjian talking to her so seriously for the first time.
It's not a casual teasing, nor a careless perfunctory, nor a casual indifference to everything.
"Shang Xingjian, are you..." Are you really hiding something important from her?
Shang Xingjian suddenly laughed, raised his hand and landed on Cheng Mai's head, "I was just telling a story, why are you so scared?"
Cheng Mai: "..." Thank you, I can't laugh at all at this moment.
Shang Xingjian continued to move forward after comforting him, "So the old monk can't wait for the reincarnation of Mr. Xiyue, because the possibility of Mr. Xiyue's reincarnation has long been gone, and as punishment, the old monk can only bear the merits of the prosperous life and live forever. , and Mr. Xiyue will always be separated by yin and yang.”
Cheng Mai followed slowly, but was very worried.
"You helped him later?" Cheng Mai asked.
"So be it. I took away his eternal life and found a glimmer of life for Mr. Xiyue. The price is to guard Hanshan Temple for generations until I come back again."
Cheng Mai was shocked by Shang Xingjian's ability. There seemed to be nothing he couldn't do in the world.
"Aren't you afraid of violating the law of heaven?" The novel says that the law of heaven is the most powerful existence.
"A bug like me is invincible in the world." Shang Xingjian said proudly.
Cheng Mai was used to his shamelessness, "So where is Mr. Xiyue now?"
"Let me ask you a question, if you were Mr. Xiyue, would you feel resentful? You have done so many things that benefit the country and the people, but in the end you only got a bad ending, and you even had to bear so many worldly things. The crime he was charged with.”
"Resentment?" Cheng Mai sneered, "I will blow up this earth."
If it were her, then everyone should stop living.
Merchant Jane laughed out loud, it was indeed something she could do.
"Yes, so who can ask him to be a good person." Shang Xingjian said regretfully, "The world has always owed him, but he has never really owed the world anything."
Cheng Mai always felt that this was a bit strange, but after listening carefully, it felt reasonable.
"Have I seen that person?" It seemed to be a question, but Cheng Mai was very sure of her own thoughts. She must have seen that person.
A man related to Hanshan Temple.
Cheng Mai could vaguely catch a shadow, but he was not sure who it was.
