Everyone already knew the contents of the jade sword, and their expressions were a little ugly.
Bu Xiaotian fell into the hands of the people from Holy Soul Mountain, but the door asked them to go to the Jade Buddha Temple for rescue.
It is undoubtedly a dilemma for them whether to take risks to save people or to follow the orders from inside the door and leave here for the Temple of the Emerald Buddha.
After a long silence, Cheng Yunliang looked up at everyone and saw that they were all looking at him, obviously waiting for his decision.
"What do you think?"
Cheng Yunliang did not decide immediately whether to leave or stay, but asked everyone first.
No one answered, and they obviously didn't know what to do.
After a while, a female disciple from Yuzhu Peak said:
"Senior Brother Cheng, do we really have to give up saving Junior Brother Bu?"
Chu Yungong suddenly asked confusedly:
"Second Senior Brother, do you think Master's attitude is a little strange?"
Cheng Yunliang was suddenly asked this question. He was a little confused and asked:
"What's wrong with Master's attitude?"
Seeing that Cheng Yunliang didn't understand what he meant, Chu Yungong continued:
"You and I both know Master's temperament? If we knew that our junior brother was in the hands of Holy Soul Mountain, we would have come there in person no matter what happened. Just like that day when we knew that junior brother had been in trouble, we would have come to Holy Soul Mountain in person.
But on the day we went down the mountain, although Master didn't say much, did you notice that there was no worry in his expression that day?
Moreover, this jade sword was also sent by the master. After knowing that the junior brother was in the Holy Soul Mountain, he still asked us to go to the Jade Buddha Temple, and even specifically said that the junior brother was fine..."
Chu Yungong felt that he had said enough, so he did not continue.
Following Chu Yungong's words, Cheng Yunliang carefully recalled the previous situation and found that he was right. He looked at Chu Yungong and asked:
"You mean master knows that my junior brother will be fine even if he falls into the hands of people from Holy Soul Mountain? But why did he come directly to Holy Soul Mountain that day after knowing that junior brother was in trouble?"
"this......"
Hearing Cheng Yunliang's question, Chu Yungong was also a little confused.
If Xiao Tianxiong had known for a long time that Bu Xiaotian would not be in danger even if he fell into the hands of people from Holy Soul Mountain, then why did he rush to Holy Soul Mountain alone after learning that his junior brother had fought with Fan Wushe?
There is clearly a contradiction in this!
After pondering for a while, Chu Yungong's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Unless something happened or did something to Master after coming to Holy Soul Mountain, I can guarantee that my junior brother will not be in danger even if he falls into the hands of someone from Holy Soul Mountain!"
Situ Xue was originally worried about her son's safety, but when she saw the two people making endless speculations here, she finally couldn't help it anymore and said directly:
"Stop guessing, just ask him directly!"
After saying that, he took the jade sword from Cheng Yunliang's hand, erased the original content, re-wrote a few words, and let it go.
This surprised the Yuzhu Peak disciples who were watching. The Jade Sword of Communication is a unique magical weapon of Yuxu Sect. It is engraved with special runes. It can record information and actively fly back to the place where it was left. In the hands of someone who has lost his breath.
However, because it is not easy to make, except for Zilei Peak, which has only six or seven disciples, only a handful of disciples in other peaks will be given this jade sword when they go out.
However, Situ Xue was obviously not from Yuxu Sect, but he could use the Jade Sword of Communication, which inevitably made them doubtful.
But when they saw that Cheng Yunliang and other Purple Thunder Peak disciples didn't have the slightest look of surprise on their faces, they seemed to understand something and stopped caring about this detail.
Yun Ying has been staying with Situ Xue these days. Perhaps Bu Xiaotian's accident has stimulated him too much. She seems to have grown up a lot these days. Not only is she no longer willful, but she even talks a lot less.
Many times when everyone was discussing things together, she would just stand aside and listen quietly, rarely expressing any opinions.
Although Situ Xue spent more than three years recuperating after being rescued by Bu Xiaotian, after all, she had been imprisoned for more than ten years before, and her body's shortcomings had not been fully made up.
After several days of traveling day and night and the worries in her heart, if Yun Ying hadn't been taking care of her, she would have been unable to hold on long ago.
After Situ Xue sent out the message jade sword, everyone said nothing and quietly waited for Xiao Tianxiong's reply.
This time, he didn't have to wait too long like last time. An hour later, Xiao Tianxiong's jade sword of messenger fell into Cheng Yunliang's hands again.
Cheng Yunliang took the jade sword in his hand and examined it. The expression on his face did not change much, and he handed it to Situ Xue's hand.
Situ Xue took the jade sword and saw only two sentences in it:
Cutting off Jiuzhou will not hurt Lao Liu's life, Qinglin has gone to Holy Soul Mountain.
After reading the words in Jade Sword, Situ Xue's worried look did not weaken much.
Soon, everyone knew the contents of the jade sword.
Cheng Yunliang waited for everyone to finish reading Jade Sword before he said:
"Since Uncle Gu is here, he should be able to rescue my junior brother."
After a pause, he continued:
"With Uncle Ancient Master's cultivation, we won't be able to help much even if we stay here. My opinion is to follow the master's order and go to the Jade Buddha Temple to provide support. What about you?"
This time Chu Yungong did not refute again. Although Gu Qinglin had not been born for a long time, they had already seen his cultivation in the battle of Surabaya City three years ago. A man who could condense the avatar thousands of miles away and drive away the monsters of the Demon Cult. Masters are indeed not comparable to them.
After a long time, seeing that no one objected, Cheng Yunliang was about to speak when Situ Xue suddenly said:
"You go ahead, I want to stay here."
There was no special expression on her face, but the determination in her tone showed that she would not change her decision easily.
Cheng Yunliang glanced at Situ Xue but did not persuade him.
He could not think of any reason for a mother to leave her only child and go with them to the Temple of the Emerald Buddha thousands of miles away.
After Situ Xue finished speaking, Yun Ying also said:
"I will also stay here with my aunt."
It would be nice to have someone take care of Situ Xue to avoid any accidents.
Cheng Yunliang thought this and nodded to Yun Ying in agreement.
What everyone didn't expect was that Lan Yunxin, who was silent on the other side, also walked out and said calmly:
"I'll stay too."
"Junior sister Yun Xin?"
Some Yuzhu Peak disciples looked at Lan Yunxin in confusion, wondering why she also chose to stay.
Lan Yunxin explained:
"Junior Brother Bu was caught by the people from Holy Soul Mountain because of Senior Sister Yunzhu. We can't just sit back and watch. Senior sisters will go to the Jade Buddha Temple first. I'll wait for Junior Brother Bu to get out of trouble before going there."
Lan Yunxin's words were well founded, and none of the disciples at Yuzhu Peak could think of any reason to refute them.
After a while, the leading disciple from Yuzhu Peak said:
"Okay then, Junior Sister Yun Xin, be careful and don't do anything stupid!"
Lan Yunxin nodded and said:
"Ok, I know."
Now that they had decided, everyone no longer delayed, left the mountain forest with their swords, and disappeared into the western sky.
Situ Xue, Lan Yunxin and Yun Ying stayed near Holy Soul Mountain and continued to wait, hoping that Gu Qinglin could successfully rescue Bu Xiaotian.
But they waited and waited for several days, but there was no movement in Holy Soul Mountain.
The longer he waited, the more worried the look on Situ Xue's face became, and even Yun Ying and Lan Yunxin began to worry.
On this day, Situ Xue finally couldn't wait any longer. She stood up without saying a word and was about to leave in the direction of Holy Soul Mountain.
Yun Ying noticed her movement and quickly stood up to stop her and asked:
"Auntie, what do you want to do?"
Situ Xue looked at the heavily guarded Holy Soul Mountain in the distance and said:
"I'm going to save Tian'er!"
Although Yun Ying was also worried about Bu Xiaotian's situation, he still retained his rationality and persuaded:
"Auntie, it's impossible for you to rescue brother Xiaotian by yourself. Didn't the uncle say that the master is already here? Maybe he can rescue brother Xiaotian if we wait a little longer! Sister Yun Xin, you Hurry up and persuade aunt!"
Lan Yunxin had also stood up. Seeing that she heard his request for help, Yun Ying approached the two of them, thinking that she would help him persuade Situ Xue, with a look of hope on his face.
But unexpectedly, Lan Yunxin directly offered the sword and said:
"I am coming too!"
The black donkey that had been lying on the ground now stood beside Lan Yunxin and Situ Xue. Although it couldn't speak, the three of them knew that it planned to follow them.
Back then, the black donkey almost exhausted its vitality in order to take Miao Yunzhu back to Purple Thunder Peak. These days, the disciples took it along the roadside to nurse it back to health. Although it is still skinny, its energy is still high. Much better.
Yun Ying was a little confused immediately. Lan Yunxin had always been calm and calm. Yun Ying always thought she was calm, but he didn't expect her to be so impulsive.
Seeing that he could not persuade them both by himself, Yun Ying simply raised his sword and said angrily:
"Okay, then I'll go with you, or we'll be arrested together at worst!"
At this moment, a man's voice suddenly said:
"Where are you going?"
Upon hearing this voice, Yun Ying's face immediately showed a look of surprise, and he shouted in the direction from which the voice came:
"Master!"
Situ Xue also looked in the direction of the sound, but her face was a little complicated, and she couldn't tell whether it was happiness or something else.
Sure enough, soon the three of them saw a tall figure coming out from behind the woods.
The moment he saw the man, Yun Ying put away his long knife, rushed towards him, and asked:
"Master, if you don't come, we will really rush over!"
Gu Qinglin stretched out his hand to block Yun Ying's flying figure, touched her head and said with a smile:
"Be more careful. We are all grown up girls, and we are not yet in shape!"
Situ Xue looked at Gu Qinglin and said with a somewhat nostalgic tone:
"Qinglin, long time no see."
Hearing this, Gu Qinglin stopped smiling, looked at Situ Xue, and said:
"Yes, it should be more than a hundred years ago."
Situ Xue quickly got rid of the past and asked:
"Since you have been here a long time ago, why do you show up now?"
From the moment Gu Qinglin appeared, Situ Xue knew that he was already nearby, otherwise he would never have just stopped them.
Gu Qinglin looked at Situ Xue for a moment and then looked away. He didn't answer her words and said to himself:
"Sister Xue, that child will be fine. He saved Duan Jiuzhou's life four years ago. Duan Jiuzhou will never hurt him."
Situ Xue had a look of surprise on her face after hearing Gu Qinglin's words. Bu Xiaotian had never told her about this.
But she was only surprised for a short while, and soon seemed to think of something again, and asked:
"So you came here with no intention of saving my child?"
Gu Qinglin nodded and admitted:
"Well, I'm here mainly to protect you."
When he received the news that Bu Xiaotian was taken to Holy Soul Mountain, Gu Qinglin rushed here, but he was not here to save Bu Xiaotian.
He has long known what happened between Bu Xiaotian and Duan Jiuzhou. As long as Duan Jiuzhou knows about Bu Xiaotian, then he will never harm Bu Xiaotian's life.
The reason why Xiao Tianxiong came in a hurry before was just because he was worried that something might happen to him if the people in Holy Soul Mountain didn't know Bu Xiaotian's identity.
After all the trouble he made before, even if Duan Jiuzhou didn't know about Bu Xiaotian before, he would investigate it after Xiao Tianxiong left.
He had no intention of showing up from the beginning, nor did he intend to interfere with everyone's decision. This incident could be regarded as a kind of experience for them.
As long as Gu Qinglin protects them secretly, everything will be fine.
Unexpectedly, the Jade Buddha Temple was besieged by the Demon Cult, and all the disciples rushed to Lingzhou, leaving only three people and one donkey here.
When he secretly saw the three people preparing to make a desperate move, Gu Qinglin knew that it would be impossible if he didn't show up, so he had no choice but to stop them.
Situ Xue stopped talking after Gu Qinglin answered her question, and just looked at him with complicated eyes.
After a while, Gu Qinglin felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't help but break the silence:
"Sister Xue, you also know Duan Jiuzhou, you should know that I didn't lie to you."
At this time, most of the worry on Situ Xue's face dissipated. After listening to Gu Qinglin's words, she suddenly seemed to remember something and asked:
"Does he know Tian'er's life experience?"
Gu Qinglin nodded, shook his head again, and said:
"You should know. You can almost tell from the child's appearance. He looks very similar to his father, and since senior brother came here in person last time, he should be able to guess it."
After listening to Gu Qinglin's words, Situ Xue's face showed a hint of memories.
There was another moment of silence.
"Were you also on Purple Thunder Peak that day?"
Gu Qinglin nodded and said:
"Well, I have been accompanying Master and senior brothers in the back mountain these years."
Situ Xue asked again:
"Then why didn't you come out to see me?"
After hearing these words, Gu Qinglin's calm face finally showed a trace of guilt:
"Sister Xue, I'm most sorry for what happened back then. How can I still have the nerve to see you again?"
Situ Xue shook her head and said:
"You still don't understand? That thing is not your fault at all. Even if you didn't do it, someone would have done it. Just for that sentence, you have locked yourself in Purple Thunder Peak for more than a hundred years. The past is over Let it go, you know I don't blame you."
"Sister Xue..."
Gu Qinglin was choked with sobs. It took him a while to regain his composure and said:
"Come back to Purple Thunder Peak with me. You have always protected me in the past. From now on, let me and my senior brother protect you!"
Situ Xue smiled and looked in the direction of Holy Soul Mountain, shaking her head and rejecting him:
"No, my identity is not suitable for me to be with you after all, and my child has grown up and he will protect me."
Gu Qinglin wanted to persuade again, and Situ Xue continued:
"Stop talking, we have a good life there. My father, eldest brother, younger brother and younger sisters are all there. I want to spend more time with them. I have to wait here for my children to come out. Over there at the Jade Buddha Temple The situation must be very bad, why don’t you go over?”
Gu Qinglin shook his head and said:
"Forget it, I don't care about that for a long time. There is no shortage of me. I will stay here with you."
...
Forbidden Heart Cave.
Bu Xiaotian has been here for many days. Since he was imprisoned here, except for some meals brought in every day, no one has disturbed him, and no one has talked to him. It seems that everyone has forgotten him. .
Mom would be worried if she knew he was caught, right?
It's quiet here, almost maddeningly quiet.
Bu Xiaotian could tolerate the loneliness here for the first two days, but starting from the third day, he began to become anxious and even manic.
Later, hallucinations began to appear in front of his eyes. Everything he had experienced since childhood and the people he had met began to appear in front of his eyes.
He seemed to be abandoned by the whole world.
He knew that he would definitely go crazy if he continued like this, so he tried to calm down his inner anxiety and began to understand Taoism in his heart. This was the only way he could prevent himself from going crazy.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
It was time to deliver food again. Bu Xiaotian woke up from his trance and picked up the food delivered through the gap in the fence at the entrance of the corridor.
He is not worried about the poison in the food. Now that he is a prisoner, if these people want to kill him, they only need to kill him with a casual blow or a sword, and there is no need to use poison at all.
After finishing the meal, he put the bowls and chopsticks back to their original places, then returned to the stone bed and sat cross-legged.
This time he did not fall into trance, as if he was waiting for something.
Not long after, bursts of noise came from nowhere, like crying, laughing, roaring, begging, and countless other sounds mixed together. The sound was not loud, but it was disturbing one after another.
This sound seems to have some kind of magic power, and even a determined practitioner will become crazy if he keeps listening to these sounds.
But Bu Xiaotian was not panicked. He had heard these sounds since the day he was imprisoned, and they would last for two hours every day.
Relying on the Pure Heart Mantra in the "Tian Jing", he can be completely unaffected.
At the same time as this sound sounded, Bu Xiaotian began to recite the Qingxin Mantra silently in his heart.
Although the noisy sounds continued, Bu Xiaotian's expression did not change at all.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
He seemed to hear someone reciting something in these voices!
"...It lies in heaven, which is called destiny, and it lies in human beings, which is called nature...Heart, nature, and destiny are all one..."
The reciting sound was intermittent and incomplete, but Bu Xiaotian could tell from the fragments that this was definitely an extremely profound practice method, and its mystery was not even under the "Dao Xuan Jing"!
