Bend that ghost

Wen Zhijiang is a taciturn person, and he is withdrawn by nature. Under Cui Jue's embarrassing situation, Wen Zhangjiao finally became a little autistic.

It's just that he didn't have the heart to talk to Cui Jue very soon, because this road brought him a very familiar feeling, just like those memories that were dormant in the depths of his mind but could never be recalled.

Teacher Wen was sure that he had walked this road before, and his heart sank slowly.

There are probably only two people who have walked this road, one is Wen Jiusi, the patriarch of Yinshan Mountain, but he has been wiped out now, and the other is the ghost king.

Thinking of Wen Jiusi, Wen Zhijiang narrowed his eyes and asked: "Master Cui, you said that the patriarch was wiped out, is there a reason?"

Cui Jue was stunned, and then spread his hands: "Sealing the ghost king is not that simple, and the key of life and death must be a monk to play its role. Although Wen Jiusi did not sacrifice his life, it is not the same. Both the primordial spirit and the physical body were severely damaged, and it is already a miracle to be able to leave the underworld alive."

"But why did he do that?" Wen Zhijiang hooked his fingers inexplicably, and frowned in confusion, "He entered Fengdu and sealed the ghost king. He should have the determination to die, why did he leave the underworld again?"

Aren't these great heroes generally disregarding life and death?His ancestor dragged his seriously injured body away, and took away the key of life and death, why?

"Determination to die?" Cui Jue couldn't help laughing, as if hearing something extremely funny, he glanced at Wen Zhijiang with a smile, and asked, "If you are asked to sacrifice yourself to save the world, would you be willing?"

Wen Zhijiang paused slightly, then shook his head.

He is not stingy about saving people, but the premise is to protect himself and the important people. If he can't even protect himself, what else can he do to save others?

When he took the first physiology class, his teacher said: "When necessary, you can only give up the patient. Because you don't owe anyone. Practicing medicine to save lives can be a duty and an ideal. You can sacrifice, but it depends on the patient. Is it worth it? The premise of the sacrifice is worth it. But if a doctor can save countless patients, if he sacrifices for one patient, is it really worth it?"

That's what it means to die well.

Cui Jue was not surprised, and said with a sneer, "You see, all people are like this. In other words, the same is true for gods. In such a huge underworld, no one would be willing to sacrifice themselves to save the world. Wen Jiusi is also a human being, so of course he will. He chose to take action not out of pity for the common people, but because he had to do so."

"What do you mean?" Wen Zhijiang was a little surprised, he thought Wen Jiusi did it voluntarily.

Is there any reason for this?

"No one wants to die, no matter how painful life is, as long as they are not really desperate to the point where they must die, no one will seek death." Cui Jue said frankly, it is human nature, and it is also a fact. He walked slowly and said: "Wen Jiusi did this because he wanted to protect his people. At that time, the ghost king caused a bloodbath, and many sects and families disappeared. Their lives were exhausted, and the gods had no choice. And at that time, it was not only those who were killed There is another family of sects that have been destroyed, and there is another—Wen's family."

"So...he sealed the ghost king and saved the Wen family?" Wen Zhijiang's throat was sore, if it was said that everything the ancestors did was to save the Wen family, it would make sense.

He doesn't care about the common people, but to keep the Wen family, his people.

Cui Jue nodded, and praised with emotion: "I have never seen such a determined person, and it is not that no one has tried to walk this road. It is a pity that those monks have not been able to go back. Their bodies are here. Turned into dust. Only Wen Jiusi found the key of life and death in Fengdu, which was completely controlled by the ghost king."

Wen Zhijiang was silent. To be praised by Cui Pan, he can probably imagine how good his ancestors were back then, and then said: "Master Cui admires the ancestors very much?"

"Naturally." Cui Jue responded, glanced at him with a half-smile, and said again: "It's just for admiration. After all, such an amazing talent is rare in the world. I have never seen a person like that for many years. He His love is not great, it is selfish and narrow, it is only for the tribe. But it is firm, you can understand? Not everyone has the courage to sacrifice for the tribe. It is just why he left Hades again, probably I still don’t want to die. And take away the key of life and death, so that the underworld will not dare to do anything to Wen’s Yinshan. Before he left, he made a deal with the underworld.”

"What deal?" Wen Zhijiang asked.

"The underworld must not embarrass Yinshan, and Yinshan has become the eyeliner of the underworld in the yang world, or... an existence that coexists with punishment and redemption." Cui Jue chuckled, and he also noticed that he talked a lot today, probably Because of Wen Zhijiang.

He is too similar to Wen Jiusi.

The two of them have no great love, but they are kind and benevolent, and they have done many things that a decent person who keeps saying that the people of the world will not do it in this life.

Not only Cui Jue thinks so, but even Wen Zhijiang himself thinks that this patriarch is very suitable for him.

Who is born willing to sacrifice themselves?Unless you have to, or it's worth it.

From Cui Jue's mouth, Wen Zhijiang could vaguely guess what kind of person this patriarch who surprised Cui Pan was.

A patriarch who devoted himself to the sake of the Wen family and sacrificed himself, even when he left Hades, he never forgot to negotiate conditions with the underworld for the benefit of the family. The most helpless thing is that this person really has the qualifications to negotiate conditions. There is no way.

How can they be harsh on a hero who has contributed to the common people of the world and the underworld?Can reprimand?It's a shame to spread the news to the underworld.

Although Wen Zhijiang felt that he had to rely on a monk to save the world, the faces of the gods in the underworld probably would have been lost for a long time.

"Steady your mind." Cui Pan's dignified voice suddenly came from next to his ear, and he reminded: "Although this place is no longer within the control of the ghost king, there are countless evil thoughts and resentments gathered after all, so we must be careful."

Wen Zhijiang nodded, but he didn't feel anything wrong and was not affected.

Cui Jue couldn't help being surprised when he saw Wen Zhijiang's clear expression, and then looked away clearly.

Wen Zhijiang's mind is clear and clear, because he is like Wen Jiusi, with clear goals in his heart and no confusion at all. He is indeed the best Yinshan head teacher he has ever seen.

It's just that if he knew that Wen Zhijiang's sobriety was only because of Lu Li's words, and he was unwavering, he would probably have a headache.

Along the way, the two chatted casually, although Cui Jue was the one talking most of the time, Wen Zhijiang remained silent.

Until Cui Jue stopped, said in a deep voice, "Here we are."

Wen Zhijiang looked up and saw that he was standing in front of the towering pure black city wall. On the high hanging plaque were three large characters in pure black relief - Fengdu City.
