Even though Fifth Shanhe knew that Gu Qingyang had entered the ruthless path early on, when he saw that Gu Qingyang was so ruthless, he still had a hard time accepting it.
His mood was extremely sad, but at the same time, he also felt a deep sense of helplessness.
As someone who has accompanied Gu Qingyang on his travels to this moment, he still knows Gu Qingyang very well. He knew that Gu Qingyang understood all the truth.
What is love, what is love.
What is Tao, what is destiny.
…
Regarding these aspects of knowledge, Gu Qingyang far surpassed him. So he firmly believed that Gu Qingyang's choice was absolutely right.
He knew that Gu Qingyang made this choice just to stay alive and to become stronger.
But now this scene is still too cruel.
Chu Xiuwei's soul had been destroyed once by Gu Qingyang, and now, forced by the situation, Gu Qingyang actually destroyed it for the second time.
There was silence and contemplation for a long time.
After a long, long time, Wu Shanhe turned his head and no longer stared at Gu Qingyang. He looked at Shijia, with a bitter smile on his lips.
"well……"
After all, Wu Shanhe still hesitated to speak. He obviously had a lot to say, but finally chose to remain silent.
He thinks it's because he sees reality.
Reality... this thing seems to have never disappeared from his life. It was there throughout, affecting him in an invisible way.
He didn't have any particularly deep feelings before, but now, Wu Shanhe really just wants to curse and point his finger at the sky angrily!
Is this fair?
What did Chu Xiuwei do wrong?
Why does that ordinary girl do everything wrong? Her birth was wrong, her desire for revenge was wrong, everything was wrong!
Why? Fifth Shanhe just wanted to ask why. To be fair, this is what he wants most right now. But he can't seem to get it.
And Gu Qingyang... If it weren't for him entering the ruthless avenue in advance, he should be firmly bound by the shackles of his origin now, right?
I wanted to save one person, but in the end I could only destroy one person with my own hands.
This kind of thing is such a huge blow to people that no one can easily bear the pain.
What's more, for Gu Qingyang, this is the second time he has experienced such a thing. When it comes to heartache, Gu Qingyang should be the one suffering the most, right?
…
Fifth Shanhe chose to remain silent also because of Gu Qingyang. What is the current situation? Anyway, he couldn't see clearly at all.
Since he couldn't see clearly, he might as well just move aside. He believed in Gu Qingyang, and he believed that Gu Qingyang would be able to create a perfect result.
And before this happens, he will do his best to stand firmly by Gu Qingyang's side and do what he should do.
"Emperor, what are you—"
Sure enough, after the fifth mountain river sighed. Not long after, Shijia finally stopped being in a daze and spoke resolutely.
At the same moment, Wu Shanhe and Gu Qingyang both looked at Shijia. Fifth Shanhe stared at the young monk in front of him.
As for Gu Qingyang, his eyes were calm.
Comparing the two of them, the former gives the impression that he wants to kill people, and he still wants to kill many, many people.
The latter... is Gu Qingyang. Gu Qingyang gives people not only a feeling of peace, but also an indescribable depth.
"Do you think that I am still the me you saw when I was in Zhongzhou? Maybe the me you see now is the real me."
"It's just a woman who has nothing to do with me. I saved her because I didn't let go of the other self in my heart."
"It's a matter of love to save her."
"It's your duty not to save him."
"I am a person who wants to realize the ultimate ideal of freedom. Anyone who stands in the way is destined to die. No one can stand in my way."
"When I treat the world with gentleness, the world had better respond with gentleness to me. Otherwise, I will have other choices."
…
Gu Qingyang said in a calm tone. At this moment, you can't see any emotional fluctuations just through his reaction.
Because of this, Shijia couldn't help but frown. He originally wanted to use Chu Xiuwei to awaken the goodness deep in Gu Qingyang's heart.
But now it seems that he was indeed wrong.
And he seems to be extremely wrong.
He completely failed to see what he wanted to see in Gu Qingyang. The Gu Qingyang he saw was truly cold-blooded to the extreme.
However, such cold and biting words came out of Gu Qingyang's mouth, but they were so harmonious and so natural.
After hearing such words, Wu Shanhe's expression also changed a bit.
But after some thought, Wu Shanhe chose to remain silent.
He still wanted to believe in Gu Qingyang. Through his understanding of Gu Qingyang, he could confirm that what Gu Qingyang wanted to do must be something very profound.
So...it would be too early to draw a conclusion just because things have developed to this point.
Moreover, Gu Qingyang's methods could always surpass his knowledge, and he also felt that Gu Qingyang must be preparing some other methods.
Maybe...he meant maybe, maybe Gu Qingyang only refined Chu Xiuwei's soul on the surface.
"Can we only have one battle?"
Finally, Shijia couldn't bear it anymore.
He looked at Gu Qingyang coldly. His eyes lacked a lot of warmth and jade, but instead had a bit of coldness.
Shijia opened his mouth and asked only one sentence. After asking, he smiled at Gu Qingyang, a smile full of integrity.
It was obviously a very upright smile, but for some reason, the moment he saw this smile, Wushanhe just felt weird.
But he never thought that Gu Qingyang would laugh at himself:
"Actually, there is no need for you to waste your efforts anymore. What's the use of killing me?"
"Do you really think that killing Gu Qingyang will end it once and for all?"
"Innocent."
"Let me tell you, I have been to a place. The name of that place is Hades. That place is related to the reincarnation of all living beings in the world."
"I did a good thing and a bad thing there. The good thing was that I helped all sentient beings bear the sins that they could not bear."
"The bad thing is to tell them the truth."
"right--"
"It's the truth that you can obviously guess, but still don't want to believe. I turn it into a seed and give it to every soul in reincarnation."
"you--"
Hearing what Gu Qingyang said, Shi Jia finally lost his temper. He suddenly stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Gu Qingyang's collar and lifted Gu Qingyang up.
At this moment, Shijia no longer had the temperament of a Buddhist cultivator. He looked more like an ordinary orthodox cultivator who was frustrated.
Seeing him like this, Gu Qingyang started to laugh. He showed a very wild and happy smile.
However, before Shijia could scold him, Gu Qingyang suppressed his smile, and then murmured to himself with a serious face:
"In your eyes, I must be a lunatic for doing such crazy things. You will definitely believe that I have committed an unforgivable crime."
"You will think...to use the most terrible punishment in the world to deal with me. You will try every means to make me disappear and let me die completely."
Having said this, a smile appeared on Gu Qingyang's face again, but his smile was a ruthless and unintentional smile. It's heartbreaking to watch.
"Humans, wild beasts, and other creatures in this vast wilderness, do you think they are all part of all living beings?"
"Of course they are, right?"
"But why is it that not all living beings are born equal, but that there are those who eat the weak and those who eat the strong, and some who eat plants and trees and eat minced meat?"
"that is because--"
"There are completely different things between living beings! Of course you can't deny that every living being is unique."
"Of course you can't deny that some creatures just like to keep climbing up, while some creatures like to maintain the status quo, or even fall down."
"Do you think your Buddha can save all sentient beings? I have seen the Buddha."
"Perhaps in a few years, you will still be able to see Buddhist cultivators infected with demonic intentions."
"This world seems complicated, but to me it is not that complicated. If we really regard all living beings as equals, it is normal for the weak to eat the strong."
"If you really want to reach the ultimate realm of Tao as quickly as possible, the ruthless path is naturally the best choice. I don't want to choose ruthlessness, but I have no choice."
…
Shi Jia was completely stunned by Gu Qingyang's words. Until Gu Qingyang finished speaking everything, Shijia was still standing there, unable to recover.
At first, Shijia listened to Gu Qingyang's words and listened to Gu Qingyang's succinct explanations. He still had the desire to continue listening.
But soon, Shijia discovered that the more he listened to Gu Qingyang's words, the more something was wrong.
Especially when Gu Qingyang spoke to the last moment, he was completely speechless.
What does "he doesn't want to choose ruthlessness either?"
What does "He actually has no choice?"
Shijia completely disagrees with this statement. In Shijia's view, Gu Qingyang's words like this were a bit meaningless.
The right to choose is obviously always in your hands, Gu Qingyang, okay? As long as you, Gu Qingyang, are willing, what's the difficulty in doing good deeds?
free.
Although he had never heard Gu Qingyang mention these two words, he could hear that Gu Qingyang's words revealed his desire for freedom.
But Gu Qingyang's so-called freedom, in his opinion, is just a way to vent his "own desires", and it's no big deal.
Therefore, after being silently dazed for a period of time, when he looked at Gu Qingyang again, his eyes were much colder than before.
However, Gu Qingyang was still leisurely and contented.
No matter how Shijia viewed him, he always looked unmoved. It seems like there is something deep inside to rely on.
However, it is worth mentioning that although Shijia had only a partial understanding of Gu Qingyang's thoughts. But Gu Qingyang has completely seen through Shijia.
As early as the moment he said those words, Gu Qingyang already knew what kind of person Shijia was. Because he really saw it.
In a sense, Shijia's thoughts are actually very similar to those of the old men in Tianji Shen Pavilion.
Although Shijia cultivated the Buddha's Way, the old men in the Tianji Shen Pavilion cultivated the Tianji Avenue.
But they do all have a heart to save the world and save people, and they all want to maintain this peaceful and prosperous age.
Just talking about this point alone, Gu Qingyang actually admired people like them quite a lot.
After all, such people are always rare. Throughout the ages, most people have only cared about seeking great benefits for themselves after becoming bone cultivators.
In contrast, the life and death of others has always been something that most bone cultivators never care about. This was the case endless years ago.
To this day, it is still the case.
But Gu Qingyang also knew that the peace that Shijia and the old men of Tianji Shen Pavilion wanted to maintain was nothing more than the current world.
Compared with tradition, their ideals are great and beautiful. People like them can bless many people.
But no matter how many people they can benefit, they can only save a limited number of people. They cannot save everyone.
Because their abilities are limited.
Although Sakya possesses great compassion. But Gu Qingyang knew that if Shijia really insisted on following that path, the result would be like that.
Maybe Shijia still doesn't understand this, but as a real person, Gu Qingyang understands all the principles.
It's a pity... Because of the influence of Wu Qingyang, Gu Qingyang didn't want to speak out. All the while, he was just thinking about other things.
"Isn't a plain, peaceful and healthy life what you want?"
"As long as you are dedicated to good, no one will be your enemy, and you can be at ease."
"Why do you have to kill for your own ambition? Why do you kill so much?"
"This is all cause and effect, Qingyang Donor, in the words of our Buddhist cultivators, you are completely obsessed now."
…
After thinking for a moment, Shijia spoke again and began to try to persuade Gu Qingyang, hoping that Gu Qingyang would put down the so-called "butcher's knife."
he does not know.
If... the person he persuaded was Gu Qingyang, who carried his sister around to seek medical advice in his previous life, then he would definitely succeed.
It's a pity that it's now, and Gu Qingyang has already lived his second life. But he still wanted to use the original set of things to restrain Gu Qingyang.
How could something like this possibly succeed?
Sure enough, after he finished speaking these words, golden Buddha light immediately appeared from his body.
Immediately afterwards, this warm Buddha's light shone on Gu Qingyang's body, seeming to be an attempt to change the latter in this way.
"Hehehehehehahahahaha——"
"Shijia, you are a Buddhist cultivator in vain."
"Do you really think this world is as simple as you see? You want to save the world, let me ask you, can you do it?"
"If I tell you that I can save, I can use my method to save everyone in the world, and even all sentient beings, would you believe it?"
Gu Qingyang suddenly spoke and said something that sounded extremely ridiculous to Shi Jia. But Shijia's expression soon changed.
Because he thought of what Gu Qingyang said before.
Underworld, guilt, seeds... He thought of what Gu Qingyang just said. Although he didn't want to believe the truth of this matter.
But when he realized that the person who did this kind of thing was Gu Qingyang, he thought that all of this might actually happen.
So... what exactly is the seed matter that Gu Qingyang mentioned before?
Strong uneasiness filled Shijia's inner space. This was the first time in his life that he felt so panicked.
If this were the case in the past, if someone had told him that someone was willing to bear the sins of all living beings, he would definitely respect that person as a true god.
If someone else tells him that there are people who change the lives of all living beings for their own selfish desires, then he will definitely think of conquering this deceiving demon.
And now——
Gods, demons...but these two are the same person. The person who did these two things is actually the same person! What a thing.
Shijia was really silent this time.
His face turned pale and he stared at Gu Qingyang in front of him. At this moment, he was no longer sure what the future wilderness world would be like.
He just felt that the young man in front of him, who still had a youthful appearance, was much scarier and scarier than when he first met him.
When we first met, Gu Qingyang was a man of Shinto and demonic power.
At first glance, Gu Qingyang at that time can give people a feeling of shocking the past and the present. Let others think that he is truly a genius.
Now when I look at it again, the divine and demonic paths on the young man's shoulders seem to be no longer as clear and clear as before.
They seem to have become much blurry.
Then...are they still purely the two great ways of gods and demons? Shijia was thinking, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't get the final answer.
When they parted ways, he had felt that even if they met again in the future, he would definitely be able to see through Gu Qingyang's ways.
Now that they really reunited...he realized how wrong he was back then.
However, it is obviously too late to regret it now. Things that should happen and things that shouldn't happen have all happened.
"Walk."
While Shi Jia was still silent and in a daze, Wu Shanhe walked straight forward and patted Gu Qingyang on the shoulder, indicating that it was time to leave.
But they never thought that just when Gu Qingyang turned around and prepared to leave, the golden Buddha's light actually became extremely bright and suppressed them.
At the same time, a Buddha image appeared.
When Gu Qingyang and Wu Shanhe took a quick look, they saw that the Buddha's shadow was majestic and majestic. Just one glance was enough to make people feel awe and make them feel endless majesty.
At this time, the shadow of this giant Buddha was obviously coming to kill Gu Qingyang. Obviously, Shijia had made up his mind.
Gu Qingyang knew that Shijia did this just to keep him here. It doesn't matter whether it's life or death, as long as I can stay.
"Donor Qingyang, you can't leave."
…
