Chapter 3775 3777【Blackwood Cliff】
Xiang Nan returned to Shenjian Villa with a lot of worries.
Qingqing was waiting anxiously in the room. Seeing that he had returned safely, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. She immediately came forward to greet him and asked with concern, "Brother Peng, it's great that you are finally back. How are you? Are you okay? ?”
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
“Is that person just now Xie Xiaofeng?” Qingqing asked curiously, “Have you caught up with him?”
“Well, that’s him.” Xiang Nan nodded.
"It's really him." Qingqing said in surprise, "Did you fight each other?"
"No." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "I can feel that Senior Xie has reached the realm of immortals and Buddhas where there is no sword in his hand and no sword in his heart, which is beyond my reach."
"I don't understand." Qing Qing frowned. Although she also practiced martial arts and was very skilled in martial arts, she still couldn't quite understand what Xiang Nan said.
“This is like Zen.” Xiang Nan explained, “The Fifth Patriarch recited a Buddhist verse: ‘The body is like a bodhi tree, the mind is like a mirror stand, brush it diligently at all times so that no dust remains.’ This is already a very profound Buddhist principle.
But the Sixth Patriarch Huineng said even better: "Bodhi is not a tree, nor is a mirror a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where does the dust fall?" ’ That’s why he inherited the Zen tradition.
I still can't do without the scimitar, but Senior Xie has put down his sword. For him, everything in the world can be a sword, and sword moves are everywhere. At this level, how can I still challenge? "
Qingqing nodded, finally understanding.
…
"Have you asked about the grudge between Senior Xie and Wangyou Island?" She then asked with concern.
One of the purposes of their visit to Shenjian Villa this time was to find out whether there was any grudge or grudge between Xie Xiaofeng and Wangyou Island. After all, this is related to the safety of hundreds of villagers on Wangyou Island.
"This..." Xiang Nan hesitated for a while, not wanting Qingqing to know.
"Brother Peng, what's going on? Is there really any grudge between us?" Seeing this, Qingqing suddenly became worried, "Did our ancestors have a feud with the Xie family back then?"
"Qingqing, it's better that you don't know. If you know, you will only suffer." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "We will go back to Yuanyue Villa tomorrow and ignore the affairs in the world from now on, okay?"
“Brother Peng, just tell me what’s going on.” Qing Qing refused to give up and continued to ask.
"This..." Xiang Nan was in a dilemma for a long time, and finally said, "Senior Xie said, in fact, we are all members of the Demon Cult."
“Demon Cult?!” Qingqing was suddenly shocked.
She has lived in the Central Plains for two years, so she has naturally heard about the demon sect.
It is rumored that they are secretive, cruel, vicious, rebellious, and deviant. They have been causing trouble in the world for hundreds of years and causing serious troubles. Therefore, they are regarded as public enemies of the martial arts and are also called the "Demon Cult."
Qingqing never thought that she would be a member of the Demon Cult.
"How is this possible?" She couldn't believe it.
She has never harmed anyone, she has always been kind to others and willing to help others, so how could she be a demon?
"I don't believe it either." Xiang Nan nodded, "But thank you, senior, for letting us go to a place. He said that after we go, we will naturally understand the truth."
“Where to go?” Qingqing asked quickly.
“Okay, let’s leave tomorrow.” Xiang Nan nodded.
…
The next day, Xiang Nan left Shenjian Villa and took Qingqing to Heimu Cliff.
Heimuya is located in Yandang Mountain.
The two of them traveled under the stars and night, and on the third day they arrived at Yandang Mountain.
“Second brother, let me ask you, how to get to Heimuya?” Xiang Nan asked the waiter when he was at the hotel.
After asking this question, the bustling hotel suddenly became silent, and the expressions of everyone present became a little subtle.
The waiter was also startled and asked in surprise, "Sir, what do you ask it to do?"
“It’s okay, I just want to go for a while.” Xiang Nan explained.
“Sir, please don’t go to that place.” The waiter waved his hand quickly.
“Why?” Xiang Nan asked.
"In short, there are many places you can go in the world, but that place is absolutely not allowed. I am doing this for your own good." The waiter explained, and then turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, tell me, this ingot of silver is yours." Xiang Nan grabbed him, and then took out a twenty-tael ingot of silver from his sleeve.
The waiter struggled to get out, and seeing that there was money to be collected, he finally gave in, "Okay, actually everyone in the town knows that thirty years ago, thousands of members of the Demon Sect were killed there in one day, and they were everywhere. They were all corpses.
Later it was said that the place was haunted, so it became a forbidden place and no one dared to go there. Sir, I advise you not to take risks. Otherwise, I'm afraid something will really happen to you. "
"Don't worry, I'll be responsible for anything. Just tell me how to get there." Xiang Nan continued to ask.
"Okay." The waiter then explained the route into the mountain, and finally said, "Guest, please remember that you are going there yourself. If you really become a ghost, don't Come to me, it’s none of my business.”
"Don't worry." Xiang Nan threw the silver to him and said.
…
“Qingqing, let’s stay at the inn tonight and then go to Heimu Cliff tomorrow.” Xiang Nan said to Qingqing.
"Brother Peng, I always have a bad feeling. What if, I really am..." Qing Qing said with a sad look on his face.
She had been thinking about this incident on the road these past few days, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was probably true.
Firstly, the time when the Holy Sword was inserted into Wangyou Island was thirty years ago, which coincides very well with the time when the Demon Cult disappeared; secondly, the Full Moon Sword Technique indeed has the power to captivate people and make practitioners full of hostility; Thirdly, with Sword God Xie Xiaofeng's status in the world, there was no need to lie to them.
So she has always been worried, what if she is really a descendant of the Demon Cult? Will Xiang Nan dislike himself because of this?
After all, he is now the Taishan Beidou of the Central Plains martial arts world, respected by all sects and sects. If people knew that his wife was actually a descendant of the Demon Cult, how should he deal with it?
Should you choose fame, fortune, status, or your own wife? She was really worried.
“Don’t worry, Qingqing, even so, I still love you.” Xiang Nan held Qingqing’s hand and said, “You can’t choose your origin, but you can choose your path.
Even if you are born in a demonic sect, as long as you act righteously and walk straight, you will still be a good person. And those so-called decent people, even if they come from decent families, are still bad people if they commit crimes and bully others. "
“Brother Peng~” Seeing him say this, Qingqing was immediately moved.
