67|People up for people down for people 2
by Jessie@AFNCCXie Ren looked up sharply and said, “No.”
He repeated again with finality, “Absolutely not.”
The State Master nodded, saying, “I also expected you to answer like this. Therefore, what we are focusing on is the second method.”
Xie Ren said solemnly, “Please speak.”
The State Master said, “The second way is for you, Your Highness, to repent before the people of Xianle and ask for forgiveness from the heavens, and then face the wall for a month.”
Xie Ren said calmly, “No.”
The state master was stunned, said: “not really want you to face the wall to contemplate and so on, as long as the meaning of …… cough.” He suddenly remembered that this is still in front of the statue of Shen Wu Da Di, quickly changed his words, said: “As long as there is enough sincerity on it.”
Xie Ren still said, “No.”
The State Master said, “Reason?”
Xie Ren said, “State Master, I went down the mountain today, do you know what I saw? The people of the Imperial City, instead of blaming the accident at the Heavenly Sacrifice Tour, were very complimentary. It shows that our nation feels that it was the right thing to do to save that child.
“And if, as you say, a right thing is punished as a wrong, what will they think? Is this not telling everyone that saving a life is not better than building a seven-floor pagoda, but that they will have to bear their own sins? How should they think and act from now on?”
The State Master said, “Whether this matter is right or wrong is not really important. Now it is you who must choose one of the two paths. There are no two ways in the world. Either that child carries it, or you carry it.”
Xie Ren said, “Right or wrong is very important. If I have to choose, I’ll choose the third way.”
The State Master rubbed his brow and said, ”This well …… Crown Prince, with all due respect, why do you care what they think and how they think? They think this way today, they will think that way tomorrow. You don’t need to obsess about such small details, believe me, what to do after this matter is still doing, will not be touched by you, and will not take you as an example. Let’s just be careful and serve the higher-ups.”
After a moment of silence, Xie Ren said, “State Master, in fact, since I have been worshipping my master and joining the Imperial Extremity View, the more I have cultivated, the longer I have thought about it, and I have always had an idea that I have not yet dared to explicitly state.”
The State Master said, “What’s the idea?”
Xie Ren said, “Is it really right for us to worship God in this way?”
The State Master was speechless for a moment and said, “If they don’t worship God, do we drink the northwest wind? Can it be that you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, think that the thousands and thousands of believers who have believed in the Magi over the millennia are still wrong?”
Xie Ren shook his head, pondered for a moment, and said, “It is naturally correct to believe. It’s just that disciple thought that one shouldn’t kneel and worship.”
He raised his head and pointed at the golden, tall and shining statue of Shen Wu Da Di, saying, “Man ascends and becomes a god. The gods to man are forefathers, mentors, and bright lights, but not masters. In this regard, one should be thankful, and one can also appreciate, but never worship. As in the case of the Shangyuan Heavenly Sacrifice Tour, I thought that the correct attitude should also be to give thanks and to rejoice with them, not to be terrified, to curry favor, to tremble with fear, or even to place oneself in the position of a slave.”
The State Master stood upright without saying anything, but the three Vice State Masters were somewhat unable to sit still and turned back.
Xie Ren continued, “There is no excuse for an accident. I would like to offer a thousand lamps to shine through the long night, and even if a moth flies to the flame, I am fearless. But I am unwilling to bow my head because I did the right thing. Face to face? What faults have I made? What faults do the others have? This is like Chi Yung being evil, but Feng Xin, who punishes those who are evil, is to be punished. If the heavens had eyes, they would surely not have sentenced me for this.”
The State Master looked elsewhere and said, “Then, Your Highness the Crown Prince, let me ask you, what if it’s just a real smiting? At that time, will you apologize or not?”
Xie Ren said, “If that’s true, then it’s Heaven that’s wrong and I’m right. I will fight against Heaven, to the end.”
Upon hearing this, the State Master’s complexion changed slightly and laughed, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, you are quite courageous to say this.”
The three Vice State Masters then looked at him in unison, wanting to speak. At this very moment, there was suddenly a loud alarm outside the hall, and it seemed that there were many bells ringing at the same time. Now, the four State Masters couldn’t sit still and grabbed out at the same time, running towards the back of the hall.
Xie Ren also followed closely behind them, following them through the several buildings behind the Divine Martial Hall and arriving in front of a pitch-black octagonal hall. Only to see that the door of the black hall was wide open, and countless grayish smoke swished out from the door.
The State Master screamed miserably and said, “Where is Zhu An? Dead where has it gone! What’s going on here?!”
Several guardian Daoists ran over, the leader of which was that Master Zhu, saying, “State Master!!! I’m here! I don’t know what’s going on, this door was locked properly, and it suddenly opened just now!”
The State Master pulled his hair and said, “Fetch the new Soul Sealing Jar!”
Xie Ren directly rushed up. This black hall is hit with sandalwood lattice of different sizes and staggered on all sides, and on the lattice are placed all kinds of various colors and styles of ceramic pots, porcelain bottles, jade boxes, originally every container was placed properly, red plugs stuffed tightly, bottle mouth sealed with Zhu Zi yellow talisman, but at this time, it smashed a good number of them, and still keep automatically falling down from the shelves, and the ones that didn’t fall are also swaying around.
Each of these soul-sealing containers contains a demon or devil that has caused a disturbance. Such black halls are found behind every shrine on Mt. Tai Cang, and the turnstiles use the Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit to suppress them. I don’t know what happened, but it was a sudden riot|movement, all ran out!
Xie Ren said, “It’s too late!”
After he finished, he kicked the door shut. The iron lock on the door was broken by the spirits that broke through the door, he pulled out his sword, the tip of the sword wrote a few words in the air, and casually plunged it into the ground. He brought more than two hundred to the mountain, almost every day to change a wear on the body, each is the world’s unrivaled famous sword. The sword is inserted diagonally into the ground, the door really can no longer open, can only hear a group of spirits in the black temple banging the angry sound.
And withdrawing from the black temple, looking up, black clouds leaped up from the various mountain peaks, from the black temples behind the different shrines, and all those resentful spirits rushed up into the sky, converging in a certain direction with thick smoke. Zhu An said, “Where is that? Why are they all flying there?”
The State Master scolded, “You’ve lost your head, that’s the Palace of Immortal Music!”
The group was like stepping on a flowing wind, and in an instant, they arrived at Immortal Bliss Peak. And on the Tai Cang Mountain, black smoke drifted out from behind the countless divine halls on the countless peaks, rolling towards that side, forming a huge swirling cloud formation above the Immortal Bliss Palace. The State Master said, “What’s going on in your Immortal Music Palace? The demons and devils sealed in the black halls are all attracted there, what have you put in there?!”
Xie Ren was also stunned and said, “Nothing! Only ……”
Only what? Xie Ren snapped to attention: the kid!
At this time, Senior Wish said, “It’s no good State Master! There’s a fire on His Highness the Crown Prince’s side!”
Sure enough, a corner of the immortal music palace has burned up, fire light in the sky, reflecting the black clouds above are vaguely red. However, under the Tai Cang Mountain, far away in the imperial city at this time has not yet slept in the people saw this scene, do not know the big bad, but also excitedly pulling people to see the strange: “Wow! The gods on the Immortal Mountain are doing magic, it’s so beautiful!”
In the blink of an eye, the group had already arrived at the Immortal Music Palace. Xie Ren did not leave too many servants here, dozens of Taoists who came from elsewhere are struggling to get well water to fight the fire. Xie Ren didn’t see the two attendants and rushed straight in. The resentful spirits from the various black halls on the entire Tai Cang Mountain were all gathered here, and the Immortal Music Palace was almost pitch black, unable to reach out and see anything. Xie Ren vaguely saw two figures in the center of the hall and shouted, “Feng Xin! Mu Xin!”
The duo was guarding a protective formation to keep the evil spirits from invading and struggling to hold on. Sure enough, Feng Xin’s voice rang out, “Your Highness, don’t come in! There’s something odd about this kid, all those things are coming for him!”
Only then did Xie Ren notice that after those two figures, there was another small black shadow that seemed to be kneeling on the ground with its head in its hands, saying, “It’s not me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
After observing for a moment, Xie Ren said, “Don’t hold up, you guys, let go!”
Mu love said: “Can’t let go! If you let go, these things are going to go crazy, wait for me to find the most …… inside them. “Xie Ren, however, drank: “Not afraid. Release! Now!”
Mu Qi clenched her teeth and withdrew her hands at the same time as Feng Xin. Sure enough, the spirits lost their hold and all of them screamed, going berserk!
However, in the next moment, Xie Ren reached out and pinched a wisp of black smoke like lightning.
When he really didn’t even look at it, he directly pinched a wisp of black smoke with his bare hands and held it firmly in his palm. And after he grabbed this one grudge spirit, the grudge spirits that were madly running around in the entire Immortal Music Palace all slowed down.
Outside the Immortal Music Palace, the crowd all secretly nodded their heads.
When many spiteful spirits are still in a chaotic state, all roaming in the same place, they will instinctively follow the strongest of them.
As long as that one was captured, the rest would lose their direction without their leader. At this moment, Xie Ren saw through which one was the strongest at a glance, and pinched it without giving it any chance, and with a slight force, this one grudge spirit flew into ashes in his palm.
Immediately afterward, the four state masters raised their sleeves and called out, “Come back, all of you!”
That group of grievous spirits that had lost their leader wandered around the Immortal Music Palace as if they were headless flies for a while, and were finally hopelessly recognized, reluctantly returning to the Qiankun of the sleeves of several state masters. Dozens of Taoists were extinguishing the remaining embers in all directions, the thick black smoke in the palace gradually dissipated, and only then did Xie Ren get a good look at those three people.
Feng Xin and Mu Yi were half-kneeling on the ground, stunned. And behind them, the child was still holding his head, not saying a word. A few state masters then walked in, and at a glance, asked, ”Where did this child come from? Feng Xin just said that all the resentful spirits are coming at him? What’s going on?”
Xie Ren said, “This is the child who fell off the city wall during the Shangyuan Sacrificial Heavenly Tour.”
The state masters were startled. The State Master said, “How did you bring him up?”
Xie Ren shook his head, not bothering to explain, and asked Feng Xin, “What did he do to lure all the resentful spirits from the Black Temple?”
Feng Xin, still hanging by an arm, stood up and said: “I don’t know what he did! But as soon as he went up the mountain, not long after he entered the Immortal Music Palace, suddenly this pile of black stuff flew over from the other mountains, all leaping towards the palace, leaping around him, gathering more and more, unable to get out.”
Xie Ren looked around at the Xianle Palace, which was burnt to a crisp, with pillars being pillars and walls being walls, and said, “Then what’s with this fire?”
Mu Qi’s face was covered in black ash and said, “We couldn’t get out, so we had to draw a formation to guard it. This group of resentful spirits then drew a candle flame and burned the veil, trying to force us to move out of the formation.”
Feng Xin said, “Fortunately, Your Highness, you arrived quickly, and grabbed them in the vitals as soon as you could, or else it would burn for a while longer, and even the formation with the people would be burned away.”
At those words, Mu Qi closed her eyes and slightly lowered her head. And over there, several state masters had already surrounded that young child, scrutinizing it.
Xie Ren said, “State Master, this child, is there anything wrong?”
If there was something wrong, for example, being bent over by a demon or devil, Xie Ren should be able to see it at a glance. After several years of cultivation in the Imperial Extreme View, he had specialized in refining his eyesight, and few things could be hidden from him. However, he didn’t see anything wrong with the child, the State Master shook his head, he shouldn’t be able to see it either, and asked the young child, “What are your birth characters?”
Honghong’er seemed wary and hostile to everyone, just looking at him and not speaking. Xie Ren said in a warm voice, “Go ahead, the State Master is going to read your fortune for you, for your own good.”
As soon as he gave the word, Hong Hong’er whispered her birth date. The State Master furrowed his brows, pinching his fingers and starting to count. Several people watched him for a while, discussing in low voices for a while, their expressions growing more and more grave. Looking at Xie Ren also grew more and more grave.
Although the State Master is a smooth young man who looks like he is only in his early thirties, Xie Ren is most aware of how much skill his master has to be able to sit in the Royal Jiguan. Mei Nianqing, the Chief State Master of Immortal Music, was famous for his “counting” skills. Xie Ren with a few masters of the state to learn the sword, but not to the main master of the state to learn to read the fortune-telling, only because the master of the state said that this is the art of the jianghu, he is the prince of the body of the thousand gold, do not need to learn this, coupled with his own is not interested in, have not dabbled in, but as long as the master of the state out of the hand, will certainly be no difference.
In the middle of the day, counting, the State Master’s forehead is getting more and more cold sweat, murmuring, “No wonder …… no wonder …… no wonder the Sacrificial Heavenly Tour has been destroyed for him, the Yin Spirit of the Black Temple is excited when it smells him, and the Palace of Immortal Bliss has been burned down, which …… this …… this is really ……”
Xie Ren said, “Really how?”
The state master wiped a cold sweat, suddenly all of a sudden backed away eight feet away, said, “Your Royal Highness, you’ve really picked up an unimaginable thing on the mountain! This child, poisonous, he is a Heavenly Fury Lone Star extinction of life, the kind of Yin evil things like the most, who dip who unlucky, who pro who lose their lives ah!”
Before the words left his mouth, he only heard a yell as Hong Hong’er leapt up and slammed headlong towards the State Master.
Although his voice is tender, this burst of shouting is full of anger, as if full of endless pain and despair, listening to the hearts of several people present all trembled. This young child is clearly covered with injuries, but even tearing and beating, simply like a red-eyed mad dog, really ferocious to the extreme. A few deputy state masters stopped Hong Hong Er, the state master backed up repeatedly, saying as he backed up: ”Quickly let him go down the mountain, quickly let him go down the mountain! Don’t even touch him, I mean it, this life is too poisonous, don’t even touch it!”
Several vice state masters hurriedly avoided with him, Mu Yi and Feng Xin didn’t know whether to move or not. Seeing the others avoiding him like a snake, that child was stunned, and immediately fought even more fiercely, biting and hissing, “I am not! I am not! I am not !!!!”
Suddenly, a pair of hands stopped him at the waist and circled his body. A voice said above his head, “You’re not. I know you’re not. Okay, don’t cry. I know you’re not.”
The young child pursed his lips tightly, dead grabbed the waist of these hands of snow-white sleeves, stubbornly endure for a long time, finally still can not hold back, that one open round black eyes suddenly rolled down a line of tears, bawling up.
Xie Ren wrapped her arms around him from behind and said affirmatively, “It’s not you. It’s not your fault.”
