"Okay! Then let me ask you, is the legendary sword 'Ganjiang' you have at hand?"
Duan Jiuzhou's expression became a little serious at this time, and a hint of intimidating power was revealed unconsciously. At this moment, it seemed that even the chirping of the birds and beasts in the mountains was much quieter.
"Exactly."
Bu Xiaotian felt a little confused when Duan Jiuzhou suddenly asked such a question, but he still answered truthfully.
"Then do you know how many creatures have been buried under this so-called 'divine sword' over the past thousands of years?" Duan Jiuzhou asked again after receiving an affirmative answer.
"I don't know." Bu Xiaotian was forced by Jiuzhou's momentum and felt a little numb in his heart, so he answered honestly.
"Okay, then let me tell you, as far as I know, five thousand years ago there was a great battle between good and evil. At that time, a man held this sword and killed countless people. The bodies of those who died under this sword in that battle can be piled up. Like a mountain, their blood can merge into a sea of blood.
The killing power of this sword is far greater than the so-called evil thing in your mouth, so what is it? "
"This..." Bu Xiaotian was immediately speechless when he was asked this question.
"Also, let's talk about the ancestor's divine sword 'Zhu Mo' that everyone in Yuxu Sect worships. When Master Yuxu came out of the mountain, he killed so many creatures with this sword. I don't need to say more, right?" Seeing Bu Xiaotian, he said nothing. , Duan Jiuzhou did not stop there.
"This is different. The people killed by the Patriarch were all members of the Demon Sect." Bu Xiaotian retorted.
"A member of the demon sect?" Duan Jiuzhou snorted coldly when he heard this and said, "Little brother, are all the disciples of the righteous demon sect you call human beings? Are they all born to their mothers in ten months of pregnancy?"
"Of course, yes." Bu Xiaotian wanted to deny it, but he couldn't.
"Since they are all human beings, why can't the disciples of the demon sect kill while the disciples of the righteous way can't? Killing the disciples of the demon sect is not considered killing? Why are the lives of the disciples of the demon sect inferior to those of the righteous disciples? What do you mean by the equality of all living beings? Is it just talk, or is it true that all living beings are equal?" Duan Jiuzhou spoke one sentence after another, without even a moment's pause in between.
Bu Xiaotian was shocked by this questioning, like a big yellow bell ringing in his heart. For a moment, he was stunned on the spot without saying a word.
Seeing that Bu Xiaotian was in turmoil, Duan Jiuzhou stopped talking and closed his eyes again to heal his injuries.
Bu Xiaotian's heart was filled with huge waves. Ever since he went up the mountain to practice, several senior brothers had told him that the people of the Demon Sect were extremely vicious and would kill anyone he encountered.
Influenced by several senior brothers, Bu Xiaotian has always believed that people from the Demon Sect deserved their death, but he has never considered what Duan Jiuzhou said. At this time, Duan Jiuzhou's words almost overturned a certain feeling in his heart. Something that I have always believed in.
Bu Xiaotian stood there and thought for a long time, what is righteousness, what is devil, and are all living beings really equal?
Although the people of the Demon Sect are extremely vicious, are their lives really that lowly?
Are those magic weapons and artifacts that have destroyed the lives of countless demon sect disciples and are regarded as sacred objects by countless righteous people, are they really more evil than the iron fans in front of them?
But even though the magic weapons are so powerful, is this their original intention to destroy countless living beings?
No matter how powerful the magic weapon is, if no one controls it, can it really cause countless murders out of thin air?
If it kills many people, does it make it an evil thing?
It seemed like a long time passed, and it seemed like only a moment passed.
"I understand! I understand!" Bu Xiaotian, who had been bowing his head in deep thought, suddenly raised his head, with a hint of enlightenment on his face, and more of the joy of having figured out the doubts tangled in his heart.
"Oh? I wonder what little brother has figured out?"
On the other side, Duan Jiuzhou, who was doing exercises to heal his injuries, heard Bu Xiaotian's somewhat excited voice, opened his eyes, and looked at Bu Xiaotian with a look of surprise.
Through a brief contact, Duan Jiuzhou has concluded that although Bu Xiaotian is quite advanced, he is really just a fledgling boy with almost no experience. He is really surprised that he can figure out the question he just raised so quickly.
It took Bu Xiaotian a while to calm down. He did not immediately answer Duan Jiuzhou's question, but squatted down and took the hematite fan on the ground in his hand.
This is like answering Duan Jiuzhou's question, but also like talking to himself.
"No matter how powerful the magic weapon is, no matter how strong the spirituality is, you can still decide for yourself whether it is good or evil. Therefore, there is no distinction between good and evil magic weapons.
It is human beings who truly have the distinction between good and evil.
Not just magic weapons, but any thing, its function is determined by the person who uses it. Those who use it will be righteous, and those who use it will be evil.
If it falls into the hands of a righteous person, its spirituality will be affected by its owner, and no evil will arise even if it kills too many people.
If it falls into the hands of someone with evil intentions, it will be infiltrated by evil spirits and turn into a vicious thing. "
Duan Jiuzhou was secretly shocked when he heard Bu Xiaotian's words. This boy's understanding is really extraordinary. It is not surprising that such an opinion is given to others. People in the world have seen, heard and experienced a lot, and most of them can come to this conclusion. Whether it is the words and deeds of others, the teachings of teachers, or even what is recorded in books, these high-sounding things There are so many truths that I can’t even count them.
But the young man in front of him seemed to have a very simple mind. He was just focused on practicing in the mountains, and no one taught him such things. It was really not easy for him to realize such a truth in a short period of time.
"Haha, did you know that there are some naturally evil things? These things are born from evil spirits and are born with an evil and violent spirit. They can even affect the mind of the person who uses them, making a normal person become violent and murderous. .
What can I say about this? "
Duan Jiuzhou didn't seem to want to let Bu Xiaotian off easily, and immediately asked this seemingly unanswerable question.
Unexpectedly, this time Bu Xiaotian only pondered for a moment before speaking again.
"Well, although these natural evil things are born from evil aura, where do these evil auras come from?"
Without interrupting Jiuzhou's answer, he continued.
"Second senior brother said that these evil spirits naturally do not arise out of thin air, but are transformed from the resentment and hatred of the human heart. Therefore, if we trace the source, these evil things are still created by the evil thoughts of the human heart."
Looking at Bu Xiaotian, Duan Jiuzhou's eyes flashed with deep meaning, and he spoke again: "Then let me ask my little brother, since treasures are not divided into good and evil, why should people be divided into good and evil?"
"Of course it's because of people's hearts." Bu Xiaotian replied.
"People's hearts?" After hearing such a reply, Duan Jiuzhou suddenly became interested and asked.
"Those with a righteous heart have good thoughts, have the world in mind, uphold justice, and insist on the equality of all living beings. What they do is a chivalrous act of hoeing the strong and supporting the weak, and being kind and charitable; those with an evil heart are selfish, benefiting themselves at the expense of others, thinking that they are the only one, and that they are superior to others. They regard ordinary people as ants, and the things they do are all extremely evil and harmful to the world."
This set of principles was what the senior brothers had told him before, and Bu Xiaotian didn't understand it very well at the time.
"That's good. I wonder, little brother, have you ever heard of "The Art of Holy Heaven"?"
When Duan Jiuzhou saw Bu Xiaotian, he immediately answered this time. He knew that this must be what others taught him. He only praised it and then changed the subject and asked about the supreme holy book of the Demon Sect, "Sheng Tian Jue".
""The Art of the Holy Heaven"? What you are talking about is the "Art of the Holy Heaven" which has been passed down by the Demon Sect since ancient times and is regarded as a holy book by demons of the Demon Sect?"
When Bu Xiaotian heard the words "Shengtian Jue", he immediately looked at Duan Jiuzhou in surprise, wondering why he suddenly asked about this.
"Exactly."
When Duan Jiuzhou heard Bu Xiaotian repeatedly mention the words "Demon Cult Monster", the expression in his eyes changed slightly, but he did not let Bu Xiaotian notice it, nor did he have any other reaction, he just answered lightly.
"Of course I have heard of the name of the Holy Heaven Art. It is said that Qiu Tianren, the leader of the Demon Cult, cultivated this demon skill to an extremely high level. At that time, no one in the world could master it.
Qiu Tianren even unified the Demon Sect with this unpredictable magic skill, and destroyed several major sects of the current righteous path, almost dominating the world!
In the end, the three great patriarchs of Yuxumen, Yaowang Valley, and Jade Buddha Temple came out, and the combined power of the three of them was enough to kill them. It is said that the battle was earth-shattering, the sky was dark, and even the Holy Land of the Demon Sect was The 'holy mountains' are all interrupted from the mountainside.
In the end, although the three patriarchs lost the battle, they were defeated miserably. All three of them were seriously injured. I, the founder of the Yuxu Sect, Master Yunxu, was the most seriously injured. A few years later, he sat on the top of the Wuji Peak, the main peak of the Yuxu Sect. "
When it comes to the legendary battle, Bu Xiaotian's eyes are full of reverence.
"Haha, it seems that little brother really knows this "Sheng Tian Jue", so I wonder what little brother thinks of this technique?" Duan Jiuzhou saw Bu Xiaotian's look, just chuckled, and asked again.
"Since this technique has been passed down by the Demon Sect since ancient times, it is naturally a real demon skill. Of course the person who practices it is a demon from the Demon Sect. How else should we treat it?"
When Bu Xiaotian mentioned "Sheng Tian Jue", a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.
"Okay, just think of it as a 'magic skill'. Let me ask you again, if someone practices this so-called 'magic skill' but does what you call a 'chivalrous thing', then what exactly does he do? Is it a righteous path or a demonic path?"
Duan Jiuzhou didn't seem to notice Bu Xiaotian's disgust and continued to ask calmly.
"How is this possible?" When Bu Xiaotian heard this question, he immediately showed a look of disbelief, "The Secret Code of the Demon Sect must only be practiced by masters of the Demon Sect. According to you, since what that person did is Chivalrous things must be done by righteous disciples, so how can righteous disciples learn the secret scriptures of the devil's sect?"
"Since I can ask this question, it is certainly not groundless.
Two hundred years ago, there was a righteous disciple who accidentally entered a secret realm and learned an unknown skill. His cultivation level immediately increased greatly. This man was open-minded and heroic. He did many good deeds. He was usually very low-key and seldom did anything. Reveal your cultivation.
It would be fine if it had always been like this, but things are unpredictable. One hundred and fifty years ago, the good and the evil fought in Moyun Cliff. This man joined the battle with his master and finally showed his amazing cultivation. It should be a gratifying thing. However, the master of the Demon Cult recognized that he was using the method in "The Art of the Holy Heaven".
This moment can be said to have shocked people from both walks of life. The righteous ones were surprised at how a righteous disciple could learn the magic skills of the demon sect, so they thought he was a spy of the demon sect. The demon sect members were surprised by how the supreme secret code of the sect ended up in the world. What this person holds is a hypocrite who thinks it is the right way and covets the magical power, so he sends people to learn it secretly.
So this person was punished by the right way, but he insisted on the so-called morality in his heart, insisting that his master would definitely believe him and make decisions for him, but he didn't expect that the elders of his master who he believed in would ultimately decide to take his life, just because He possesses "magic power" and wants to give an explanation to the righteous people in the world.
In the end, he was unwilling to succumb to this unfair decision and escaped. Since then, he has been hunted by both good and evil. He finally disappeared more than ten years ago. It is said that he was killed in the bottomless abyss, and no bones were left.
This is what you call the righteous way. To be so indiscriminate and to take the life of a disciple just because of a single skill is really unparalleled chivalry! "
At the end of the sentence, Duan Jiuzhou's tone actually contained a hint of ridicule.
"The Renshi sect must have some other reason for wanting to kill him. It can't be so indiscriminate! Hasn't the devil been chasing him?" Bu Xiaotian heard Duan Jiuzhou's somewhat disdainful words and hurriedly retorted. road.
"If someone steals my own secret scriptures for no reason, shouldn't I hunt down and kill those who steal my secret scriptures? Can the few true secrets of your sect be passed on to others casually?"
When Duan Jiuzhou heard Bu Xiaotian's words, he looked at him like he was an idiot.
