Chapter 22 A Word of Heart Business
A noise came from the other side of the lake, and a sound floated into Xueyan's ears. "Strange, where can I run?"
Everyone looked out the window and saw the Taoist priest I met that day.
Strangely, the little demons nearby live in the deep forests and rarely come to places where humans gather. Who would be chased by this Taoist priest?
Xueyan thought of Xiaoqi, it could not be her? She stood up and looked around, and was shocked. It was indeed her! Xiaoqi was blocked on the corner of the street and was trembling, and there was no way out.
Xueyan did not hesitate, picked up the Poxue sword on the table, stepped on the corner of the table, and jumped out the window along the open window. It was passing through this lake. If it was around, it would be too late, but there were people watching the fun.
Xueyan couldn't care about so much, so she secretly used her spiritual skills, flew quickly and quickly. She tapped the lake with her toes. There were ripples on the lake surface, and she stepped on the stacked waves and headed towards the opposite bank. Before the white gauze could be touched, Xueyan blocked the Taoist priest.
Xiaoqi had never left Bihua Mountain before, and had never seen such a scene. She was obviously frightened. Seeing Xueyan coming, she quickly jumped up and jumped onto the roof and ran towards Xueyan. The Taoist priest chased after her and blocked her. Xiaoqi panicked and fell on the roof. Xueyan also rushed over and jumped up. The roof was very high, and many people gathered below to look at the roof.
"She is just a low-level demon. She has not been able to do anything bad. Please be kind and let her have a way out." Xueyan said calmly to the Taoist priest.
"Isn't it a climate? Haven't done anything bad?" The Taoist sneered. "She has endangered the world, how can I let her go?"
"We devoted ourselves to practicing and never harmed others. I'm afraid there will be any misunderstandings in the middle." Xueyan replied that with Xiaoqi's magic, he could only make pranks at most, and would not hurt people's lives.
"Several families have died in the town, but you still want to argue? Even if it is not yours, it will be inseparable from you monsters." The Taoist said coldly. "In my opinion, monsters are the same! Since you are born as monsters, what's the use of keeping them? It's just a matter of time to endanger the world, why be merciful?"
"If a demon is dedicated to goodness, he will become an immortal. He will be born in heaven and earth. It is because he will repay his kindness in this life and repay his debts. All things in heaven and earth are living beings and have their own destiny. As a practitioner, Taoist master should pay attention to saving sentient beings. Since he is sentient beings, why should he be obsessed with beings or demons?" Xueyan's words made the Taoist priest speech for a while, and Xueyan continued. "The Taoist master's wise eyes should be able to see that her magic tricks cannot kill people. I hope the Taoist master will be compassionate and let me wait for a way out of life. We will be grateful in our hearts, and we will help others in the future, and do good and accumulate blessings."
"Talents are the spirits of all things, and demons are monsters. You are wild and hard to tame. People and gods kill each other. Why should I be merciful?"
"Since we talk about compassion, the so-called sea embraces all rivers, and tolerance is great." Xueyan's eyes flashed with a hint of awe. "The Taoist Master can tolerate people, which is the Taoist Master's kindness. If he can tolerate sentient beings, that is the Taoist Master's compassion! In all things, the Taoist Master should distinguish between good and evil. Although we are born into monsters, we are determined to become immortals. Naturally, we know that there is no way to do anything contrary to the heavenly way. We also hope that the Taoist Master will be compassionate and wait for a path of life."
When the Taoist heard this, he lowered his head and pondered. Such righteous words would actually come from the mouth of a demon. He almost believed it. The Taoist looked at Xueyan. Xueyan looked at him fearlessly. Her eyes were clear and there was no false disguise. The Taoist brows slightly spread, and he was a little moved. Although Xueyan was a monster, she was different from other monsters he had seen. Xueyan had no murderous aura, but a clear and dusty temperament. "The demons originated from the demon world and are all despicable things. How can they be compared with others!"
"Although the monster is a beast, a flower, a flower, a tree, but all things in the world have life. Although such a life is not as precious as the human body, it can only be achieved after hundreds of years or even thousands of years of hard practice. We are determined to become an immortal, but have never harmed people in the world. The Taoist priest is also a cultivator. We should be compassionate. We will only do good in the future. If the Taoist priest meets us for evil deeds, it will not be too late to eliminate it."
The Taoist priest was slightly stunned and asked, "I am born as a monster, and my nature is hard to change. How can I do good? What a joke!"
"Although the six realms of reincarnation are born into monsters and their bodies are different from others, their nature is also divided into good and bad. Since there are people who do many evil deeds, there will be monsters who do good and accumulate virtue. All things are the mind. The same is life, but the difference is just the heart. Taoist priest, do you think so?" Before her death, Qianhu Grandma entrusted Xiaoqi to Xueyan, but she could not break her promise.
Seeing that the Taoist priest was considering what she said, Xueyan continued, "I know I am not a rival to the Taoist priest, but if the Taoist priest struggled, I will fight hard and protect her. Then another evil monster appears, the Taoist priest still has the strength to clean up?" Xueyan used both soft and hard work. The Taoist priest seemed to be moved by her. He looked up at Xueyan, his solemn face slightly relieved, and he put away the whisk and asked Xueyan. "It can be seen that although you are a monster, you have wisdom. Today I will let you go. I hope you can do it yourself and don't make any trouble."
"Let me remember, thank you Taoist priest." Xueyan bowed and thanked him. This Taoist priest was full of fairy spirit, had a high moral character, and was reasonable. Xueyan was very grateful.
Seeing that Xueyan was different from other monsters, the Taoist priest looked at her carefully: "Although the girl is a demon, she has a clear and most kind aura. If she can always maintain her original heart, she will surely be able to ascend to become an immortal in the future. I hope you stick to the good thoughts in your heart and finally achieve the right result."
The ultimate good spirit? That is a very far away from her. She is now a demon and has no chance of being with the ultimate good spirit. Xueyan sighed, but did not care about the Taoist priest's words, but also bowed and thanked her. "Thank you for your guidance."
"Yeah, not bad, not bad." The Taoist priest rubbed his beard and gradually moved away.
"Are you okay?" Seeing that the Taoist priest had already walked away, Xueyan turned around and helped Xiaoqi up.
Xiao Qi was still shocked, and his expression was still a little dull. After a while, he calmed down. "Sister, I'm sorry, I wanted to give Meizhu to those who wanted to capture you and let them go back and report, so that they won't come to hurt you again. But as soon as I walked halfway, Meizhu was snatched away by the snake demon, so I came here to find you, but I didn't expect to meet this Taoist priest again."
"The crowds gather here, you and I are all aliens, so I can't stay for a long time. You go back to the mountain first. Several families have died in the town. Since the people here say they are killed by monsters, we can't ignore this matter anymore. I'll find out who is at work, find out the real murderer, and give the innocence of our demons in Bihua Mountain, so as not to cause trouble for us in the future!"
"Since the people in the town have invited that Taoist priest to subdue demons and eliminate demons, sister, don't wade into this muddy water, let alone the people in the town don't like us at all." Xiaoqi curled her lips. Xueyan was a monster after all. After leaving the protection of the mountains and forests, everyone would want to kill her.
"It is precisely because of this that we cannot be wronged for nothing! The Taoist priest is not a person from Yao Town, so he is naturally not familiar with the personnel and affairs here. It is related to human life. He cannot ignore it. If the real murderer is found earlier, fewer innocent people will be harmed. Besides, I have to figure out who have been on the Bihua Mountain recently." Xueyan knew that she was afraid that she would be in danger and smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will be careful. I may stay in the town for a few days. Tell Liu'er and the others not to worry about me."
"Okay." Xiaoqi knew that she could not resist Xueyan, and Xueyan was also for the peace of Bihua Mountain. Only Xueyan could do this in the entire Bihua Mountain. "Then sister must be careful."
"Yeah." Xueyan nodded. "You go back quickly, so that Liu'er and the others won't worry."
Xiaoqi nodded, jumped off the roof and ran quickly towards Bihua Mountain.
Seeing that Xiaoqi had already walked away, Xueyan also jumped off the roof and walked to Hua Ruoxi.
"Junior sister, I didn't expect you to have so many friends in the world." Hua Ruoxi watched Xiao Qi walk away and said with some contempt: "The world is different from the heaven. They do not have superb magic, so they can only rely on the maintenance of fragile feelings to help each other and seek survival."
"Not just that, their company is extremely precious to me." Xueyan looked at Xiaoqi's back with a smile in her eyes.
"Senior brother Ye Feng has also come to this Yao Town. Don't you go and see him?" Hua Ruoxi asked.
Xueyan raised her head. "Senior sister has seen him."
"Well, I saw it at King Ji Xian's birthday party. Although he was ordering the lower realm to investigate the conspiracy of the ghost clan, everyone knows that he actually came to find you when he ventured to the lower realm." Hua Ruoxi looked at Xueyan. "Since he has a previous relationship, he has also come to you. Junior sister, why don't you live a leisurely life with him in this world?"
"His immortal power is used to seal the fire and glaze. Now he is just an ordinary person. I am a demon and he is a human. I can't harm him." Xueyan shook her head. The human demon had a different path and had already harmed him to be a human being in the world. He could no longer make him unable to be peaceful even as a human being.
"What's the matter? Just practice to become an adult."
Practicing as an adult? For Ye Feng? She didn't know whether her feelings for Ye Feng were love. Ye Feng was like a towering mountain in her heart, resisting the wind and rain for her, and giving her caring comfort when she was helpless. Xueyan still clearly remembered that that year, the heroic young man in green clothes came to the world alone under the imperial edict of the Emperor of Heaven, wiped out hundreds of remnants of the ghost tribe and ensured peace on earth.
Ye Feng completed the task outstandingly, making his reputation in heaven as high as the sky. The Emperor of Heaven was very happy and personally praised the people of the Holy Spirit Mountain, praising the famous masters of the Holy Spirit Taoist to be a high disciple. The Holy Spirit Taoist stroked his long beard and smiled happily on his face. The immortals repeatedly praised him for being terrifying. At that time, he was just a child, but he made many extraordinary achievements.
The past is vivid in my mind. Whenever my senior brother is surrounded by the halo of glory, Xueyan can only hide in the corner and bless him from afar.
He is the pride of Holy Spirit Mountain, and she is a flaw in the eyes of everyone, an alien, a loser who has not even completed a small task.
Ye Feng was also an unattainable dream for her. For such a perfect man, Xueyan could only look up to her and could not get close to her. Xueyan came back to her senses and sighed softly.
Hua Ruoxi wanted to say something, Xueyan hurriedly said, "Senior Sister, I have something to do, so I will say goodbye first."
"Junior sister, where are you living now? How can I find you?" Hua Ruoxi asked hurriedly. "If you meet your senior brother, I can let him find you."
Xueyan took off one of her clothes. "With it, you can find me with fairy art."
Hua Ruoxi nodded, Xueyan stood up and left as if she ran away. She was afraid that Hua Ruoxi would ask her who she loved, and she didn't even know the answer to this question.
Xueyan knew that her identity was embarrassing and she could not have a future with anyone. She admired Hua Ruoxi's courage and dared to let go of everything and love her. However, she is different from Hua Ruoxi. Xian can give up her identity and pursue her, but she is a demon and will only bring disaster to others.
The sky was getting darker, and the pedestrians on the road rushed home in a hurry. When night fell, Xueyan walked aimlessly on the empty street.
The gentle and gentle wind blew gently, carrying the remaining warmth of the day on his face, very comfortable. Xueyan sat alone on the stone steps on the lake shore, admiring the unique dusk sunset in the world and the moon on the branches.
Needless to mention Hua Ruoxi, even Xueyan has a bit of unforgettable attachment to this world. If she can really grow old with her beloved and wait for the spring flowers to bloom every season, even if this life is short, it will be enjoyable.
Is this the day she expected? Han Tian's figure appeared in her mind. Xueyan was shocked. Why did she remember the person who was destined to be incompatible when she was born?
Thinking of this, Xueyan shook her head quickly and warned herself not to think about it anymore. She is a demon, how could she long for love in the world? For her, it was a dream destined to be a tragic dream with no end.
