Siheyuan: Tathagata's Palm suppresses the entire courtyard!

He stepped into the courtyard, and the scene around him made him slightly stunned. Although the courtyard looked a little shabby, the plants and trees in the courtyard still maintained their former appearance. In the middle of the courtyard was a green lawn, surrounded by tall locust trees and jujube trees. The wind carried a little fragrance of jujube flowers, which seemed particularly fresh, but this tranquility could not cover up the storm in Xu Mingjie's heart.

Today, he came here to find the person who made him hate him - Banggeng. This name was like a thorn in Xu Mingjie's heart. Banggeng was once his friend and his opponent, the one who betrayed him when he needed help the most. For many years, Xu Mingjie had been patient, until recently, when he finally decided to face this hidden pain in the past.

Xu Mingjie walked into the courtyard, his steps slow and steady. Everything in the courtyard seemed to be waiting for him, quietly waiting for his reunion with the past. His eyes swept across every corner of the courtyard, and the memories that surged in his heart made him stop involuntarily.

With a "clatter", the wooden door in the yard was pushed open. Xu Mingjie saw a thin middle-aged man coming out. That was Bang Geng. He was not tall, but he gave people a calm feeling. He was wearing simple clothes and had a hint of indifference in his expression, as if he had already gotten used to everything in front of him. Seeing Xu Mingjie coming, Bang Geng was slightly stunned, but soon regained his composure.

"Mingjie, I didn't expect to see you here." Banggeng's voice was calm, as if he was not surprised by this sudden reunion. His eyes stayed on Xu Mingjie's face for a moment, as if he was trying to find out what he was thinking.

"Great," Xu Mingjie said in a low but firm voice, "I'm here to settle accounts with you."

Banggeng's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something. He raised his head, his eyes were as quiet as a deep pool, but that quietness contained deep contempt and indifference. "Settle the score? Mingjie, I don't know what you are talking about."

Xu Mingjie's face darkened instantly, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes as he looked at Banggeng. "Have you really forgotten all those things? You betrayed me and destroyed my family!"

Bang Geng smiled bitterly, and his expression became more and more indifferent. "That happened a long time ago. Are you still dwelling on it?" He shook his head slightly, as if he was helpless about Xu Mingjie's anger.

"A long time ago? Do you know what I paid for this?" Xu Mingjie's voice was filled with accusations. "I lost my family, my career, and even I was almost destroyed. Do you think this can just be forgotten?"

A hint of complex emotions flashed across Bang Geng's eyes, but he quickly concealed them. His tone became even colder and more distant: "The past cannot be changed. How can you let it go?"

Xu Mingjie clenched his fists so tightly that the knuckles on his fingers turned white. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. Even so, his voice was still full of emotion: "I am not here to discuss the past, but to face it. You will pay the price for what you have done."

Bang Geng's eyes became even colder, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile: "Ming Jie, do you think you can change anything? Over the years, your anger may only bring you short-term pleasure, but it can't really solve the problem."

Xu Mingjie felt powerless, but he quickly adjusted his mood. He knew that facing Bang Geng, he needed more than just anger, but also calm thinking and careful planning. He slowly stepped forward, his eyes piercing Bang Geng like a sword: "You are right, my anger may not solve all problems, but at least I can make you feel some real consequences."

Bang Geng was slightly startled, as if he was surprised by what Xu Mingjie said. His face became solemn, and he obviously realized the seriousness of the matter. He was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Mingjie, what do you want to do?"

Xu Mingjie's mouth curled up into a cold smile, and he already had a clear plan in his mind. Facing Bang Geng, he was not only seeking revenge, but also freeing himself from the shackles in his heart through this process. He took a deep breath, and said in a firm and resolute tone: "I will make you pay the price, and let you understand how heavy the price of betrayal is."

Deep inside the courtyard, the confrontation between Xu Mingjie and Bang Geng became increasingly tense. The tranquility of the courtyard was broken, and everything around seemed to be witnessing this fateful confrontation. Xu Mingjie's heart was filled with complex emotions, which were resentment for the past and expectations for the future.

He knew that this confrontation would not only be a trial for Banggeng, but also a relief for his own heart. He hoped that through this confrontation, he could find his inner peace and also hope to find a little justice for the mistakes of the past.

Bang Geng's expression became more solemn, and his eyes revealed a hint of indescribable complex emotions. Obviously, he felt a little afraid of Xu Mingjie's determination, and also felt the seriousness of the matter. His face became paler and paler, as if a storm had been set off deep in his heart.

Xu Mingjie stood there, but his heart was already surging. He knew that the determination at this moment would change the fate of him and Banggeng, and would also change everything between them. His eyes were firm and cold, as if he was declaring an unshakable determination.

"I will make you understand," Xu Mingjie said with a hint of cold determination, "Every betrayed soul must pay the price for their choice."

Bang Geng's face became paler and his lips trembled slightly, as if he was thinking about how to deal with the situation. A complex emotion surged in his heart, and he obviously realized the seriousness of the situation.

The atmosphere in the courtyard became more and more solemn. The confrontation between Xu Mingjie and Bang Geng seemed to cast a heavy shadow over the whole world. Their eyes met in the air, as if they were engaged in a silent contest. In this silent contest, Xu Mingjie's heart was already filled with determination and strength.

He knew that this confrontation was not only for revenge, but also for finding inner peace. He hoped that through this confrontation, he could completely get rid of the shadow of the past and find a new direction for his life.
