"Can't I kill someone who is domineering and causing harm to the village? Do you know what kind of extortion compensation will be imposed on the village woman when you stopped me just now?"
As Qiongqi asked, a broken mirror floating around stopped in front of Qingya. In the mirror, the noble lady was instructing her servants to wipe out the already poor families, while the village woman was kneeling aside with her head lowered and said nothing. The old yellow dog bared his teeth and barked at the people who were snatching things away, but was hit by them with a stick and lay on the ground twitching.
Although Qingya knew that the scenes in front of him were just illusions created by Qiongqi, he still couldn't help but turn his head to one side.
"Do you think you can escape it?"
Another broken mirror flew in front of Qingya. In the mirror, the victims who had been robbed of food could only live in the dilapidated old temple. The cold wind at night made them shiver. Although they huddled together to get a little warmth, some of them still fell asleep forever. On a cold night.
"Have you closed your eyes? Will you just escape blindly? Then do you know that the culprit of all this is precisely yourself."
From the beginning to the end, Qiongqi never showed up, but its voice always surrounded Qingya's ears like a devil's whisper.
"If you hadn't stopped me from killing those hypocritical and evil people, all kinds of tragedies would not have happened. Human beings are always deceived by appearances, thinking that they are doing good and accumulating virtue, but they are actually helping the evil. It is in vain that you have such a high talent for cultivation, but you also But you are just a mortal who cannot distinguish between right and wrong. Is the cultivation you possess used to prevent evil people from being judged?"
Seeing Qingya's silence, Qiongqi appeared. This time, it was no longer a fake. Its snow-white and red-yellow wings converged at its sides, and its distinct black and yellow stripes were majestic. At this moment, it was like a tiger waiting for its prey to take the bait, surrounding Qingya with eager eyes.
Getting closer and closer, seeing that Qingya seemed to have fallen into the abyss of confusion, Qiongqi also showed its sharp claws at this moment.
Clang, the blade of the sword passed through Qiongqi's sharp claws, making a sound of gold and iron. Qiongqi jumped back subconsciously, watching Qingya regain his consciousness, holding the sword in his chest, using a slight Look at it with contempt.
"You are just a remnant soul of Qiongqi, without the strength to fight, so you want to use mind-attacking techniques to achieve the goal of defeating others without fighting. It's a pity that you have lived for endless years, but you still believe that I don’t know how great the wisdom of the human race is.
If I let you kill the noble lady, then tell me who will be considered the murderer. The peasant woman will face permanent imprisonment, or even her own life. If you really kill the squire, the victims will be charged with murder. In a troubled world, human lives are so worthless that there is no need for any procedures to execute them. Do you really think you see better than humans? "
Qingya calmly explained to Qiongqi, seemingly calm, but inevitably a little panicked in his heart.
Qiongqi's real body possesses the extraordinary ability to tell right from wrong and confuse right and wrong. Fortunately, what he is facing is just a remnant soul and he can only show off some small tricks, otherwise he would really fall into it.
"Do you humans just sit back and ignore hypocritical people?" Qiongqi was still unwilling.
"No, as early as more than a thousand years ago, Confucius, the master of all ages, told the true meaning of repaying evil with justice and repaying kindness with kindness. Human beings are very emotional creatures. The rewards of kindness will last for thousands of years, and a gentleman will take revenge for ten years. It’s not too late, and it can’t be summed up by the simple words good and evil.”
"Then let me ask you, if it were you, what would you do?"
Qiongqi keeps retreating, and the world it has built is facing collapse.
"Haha, Qiongqi, Qiongqi, I won't bother you to worry about the things in this world. After you have gathered your complete soul, come and sit down with me and discuss things."
Facing the gradually collapsing realm, Qingya waved his long sword, and the whole world collapsed like a broken mirror. The bright moonlight from the outside world once again shone on Qingya's face.
But Qingya knew that even though he had broken through Qiongqi's mental tricks, he could not shake the solid Nascent Soul Mountain outside. However, his goal had been achieved, so he could leave it to Qiu Chiyu.
Turning around, Qingya nodded to Qiu Chiyu who was not far away. After understanding the other party's intention, Qiu Chiyu shot out a dragon fist. The red dragon swung its tail of flames and plunged into Qiongqi's huge body with a roar. in the body.
Like a mountain being struck by divine thunder, a violent roar erupted, and Qiongqi's body was instantly destroyed to pieces by the dragon's flames. The ferocious beast weapon that the other party wanted to send to kill many monks in Chang'an City could not withstand the power of Qiu Chiyu's punch.
Like fireworks blooming all over the night sky, the colorful flames illuminated the night sky brightly. The residents of Chang'an City walked out one after another. They never thought that in addition to the bright moon tonight, there would also be grand fireworks, adding to this Mid-Autumn Festival night. A rich and colorful stroke.
Among the numerous fireworks, a small spherical object, reflecting the colorful firelight, fell from the sky. With quick eyes and quick hands, Qingya quickly lowered his height and grabbed it.
"Huhu."
As soon as he got this thing, Qingya kept throwing it back and forth between his hands because it was really too hot. The residual heat carried by the violent explosion still remains on it. Although it has cooled down a lot, the strong burning sensation still makes Qingya feel very hot.
In this way, Qing Ya threw the object in his hand back and forth more than ten times like an acrobatic, and then he held it firmly in his hand.
This object is a round ball made of some unknown metal. It does not bend under such a violent explosion and does not burn red at such a high temperature. Such a material must be extraordinary.
As if he felt something was wrong with the weight, Qingya put the ball to his ear and shook it a few times. He heard the sound of liquid sloshing back and forth inside. It seemed that the thing inside was the key to driving this huge beast.
But how can I open it? The outer metal has withstood such an explosion unharmed. I cannot open it with brute force alone. Moreover, a delicate device like this usually has a self-destruction function. If you are not careful, it will be a life-and-death situation. Therefore, if you want to open it, you can only find a way to crack it.
Seeing that it couldn't be solved for a while, Qingya could only put it into the star field and make plans in the future.
The crisis was over and everyone dispersed. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, even though there was a small incident, everyone still remained in their previous mood and continued to return to the flower moon, drinking and admiring the moon.
Osmanthus flowers and floating jade fill the streets in the first month of the year, and the night is as cool as a wash.
The ice cubes in the ice bucket containing the osmanthus wine had melted, so Qiu Chiyu went to the ice cellar to get some more ice cubes.
Hua Qing'er took the cold dishes back to the kitchen to heat them up. Qing Ya teased her whether she would turn the original delicious food into a dark dish, so Hua Qing'er hummed and served it unconvinced. Cai strode towards the kitchen. Yunxiu didn't know what Hua Qing'er's cooking skills were, so she went to help.
Under the bright moon, Qingya raised his wine glass, only his shadow drank with him. Suddenly I remembered that my shadow had been accompanying me for so many years, enduring hunger and training with me, but I always ignored his company. I felt a little guilty.
Before Qiongqi arrived, Qingya was already slightly tipsy. He had lost all the alcohol during the duel. Now he relaxed, and this hazy feeling crept up Qingya's body again.
Maybe his consciousness was a little confused. Qingya picked up a glass of wine and poured it towards his shadow, splashing a little water on the ground.
"Brother Shadow, please give me your advice in the future."
The wine on the ground flowed along the terrain. I don't know if it was a coincidence or I was mistaken. The wine seemed to slowly flow to the shadow's mouth, and then all seeped into the ground in a whoosh.
Rather than seeping into the ground, it's more like being drunk by the shadow?
The drunken Qing Ya did not notice this subtle change, and still held the wine glass, thoughtfully.
In Chang'an City, the flowers are becoming more and more charming. In this prosperous city, everyone can get what they want.
Recalling that before going down the mountain, Hua Qing'er said that she wanted to come to Chang'an to find her biological parents. Although she didn't take the matter of finding her parents seriously, who in the world could truly break up love without mercy?
Who doesn’t hope that his parents will care about him when he travels far away? Even though I have never seen them, even though they are just mortals and cannot accompany me for a long time, I still long to find them in my heart.
But there are tens of millions of people in the world, and I don’t wear any tokens on my body. In the vast sea of people, where is my hometown?
However, Qingya no longer feels sad at this moment. Because, today, someone will care about you from afar, and someone will walk with you by your side. After everything happened today, Qingya was very grateful to God for his mercy.
Youyou Cangtian, if you can no longer give me more, then I will be satisfied. Just please, don’t take away what I have now, and don’t let me wake up one morning and find that those people have left me.
It is said that the moon is the brightness of my hometown. No matter how prosperous the city of Chang'an is, it is not my place to live. When will I be able to resolve the many mysteries of Chang'an and return to the mist-shrouded and snow-covered Shaking Light Peak? Get along with the sun and the moon, be with the elves, and be a carefree little disciple of the mountain sect. I just want to lean against the blue sky with my sword and lean on the tower, watch the clouds and cranes, and in my spare time, sweep the fallen flowers from the ground with the immortals.
When Qiu Chiyu returned to the table with ice cubes, Hua Qing'er and Yun Xiu carried dishes, they found that Qingya had fallen asleep leaning on the table, leaning on his arms at some point.
