Lord Tianshi, please take your seat

Luo Sheng took Le Zhen to the iron cage on the mountain and locked him up.

"You despicable celestial masters, you are so dignified! You don't want to use me to blackmail sister Chuyu!"

As soon as the seal was released, Le Zhen burst out angrily. As soon as he put his hands on the iron cage, a huge electric current knocked him to the ground.

Luo Sheng glanced at Le Zhen who was curled up on the ground in pain because of being electrocuted: "This cage has been under a barrier, I suggest you don't touch it randomly."

Le Zhen didn't answer Luo Sheng, the electric current on the cage contained powerful spiritual power, how could he, a little resentful spirit, withstand the impact, he seemed to be on the verge of dying at this moment.

Looking at Le Zhen lying half dead in the middle of the cage, Luo Sheng frowned and struggled for a long time, raising and lowering his right hand.

Le Zhen seemed to be extremely uncomfortable, humming on the spot.But his mouth was still unforgiving: "Don't even think about hurting sister Chuyu..."

Pursing his lips, Luo Sheng looked around, making sure that there was no one there, so he quietly injected his own yang energy into Le Zhen's body.

Feeling a bit of coolness, Le Zhen stopped moaning in pain, her eyelids felt a little heavy, and Le Zhen fell asleep.

At this time, the disciple came to report: "Senior Brother Luo, Senior Sister is back."

As if caught, she hurriedly put away her hands, and patted the non-existing dust on the robe, Luo Sheng responded, "Well, let's go."

……

In the hall, Zhong Wanning was kneeling in the middle, while Zhong Dangu sitting upright, motionless.And Ye Zhinan beside him looked at Zhong Wanning with a worried expression on his face.

Zhong Dan didn't have the blood after the killing, so Zhong Dan knew that Zhong Wanning didn't kill Xia Chuyu.

"Wan Ning, you have let Wei father down so much. Is this the result of your handling?"

"Father, although Xia Chuyu is an evil spirit, she did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. The child is willing to ask father to let her go."

Hitting his head heavily on the ground was shocking.

But these words made Zhong Dangu furious: "Do you know what I'm talking about? As a celestial master, how did your father teach you, and now you come to disobey your father because of an evil spirit?"

"Father, my child has never forgotten my father's teachings, but as celestial masters, all we do is to maintain fairness and justice in the world. If we just blindly favor others, it will be biased."

With a snap, Zhong Dangu's hand slapped heavily on the armrest of the seat: "You are teaching yourself a lesson in reverse."

"Let me ask you, is this Xia Chuyu killing people, or not?"

Undeniable, Zhong Wanning nodded: "Yes."

"Those who kill people are evil spirits, punish them; those who stay in the world and do not leave, punish them; those who suck the yang energy of mortals and cause harm to the world, punish them." Kill her?"

When it comes to this.Luo Sheng rushed over, seeing the confrontation in the hall, Luo Sheng wisely did not speak, bowed silently, and stood beside Ye Zhinan.

"I'm asking you for my father, do you have to protect that evil spirit today?"

"Yes." Zhong Wanning replied without hesitation.

"Senior Sister..." Ye Zhinan wanted to step forward, but was held back by Luo Sheng who was beside him.

With Zhong Dangu's temper, pleading for mercy will only make Zhong Wanning suffer a heavier punishment.

"If you persist in your obsession, today, as the head of No. 40 of the Zhong family, I will expel you from the sect in front of all the ancestors!"

"Master, don't want it!" Ye Zhinan rushed up to kneel with Zhong Wanning: "Senior sister... Senior sister is just confused for a while, master, don't take it seriously."

Hearing this, Luo Sheng was also very shocked. Even though he was calm on weekdays, he also knelt in front of him and begged for mercy: "Master, this matter is not trivial, please take it back!"

Zhong Dan waved his sleeves, ignoring the two pleadings: "Come here, take the road of thorns!"

"master!"

"master!"

Luo Sheng and Ye Zhinan both spoke at the same time, both of them could not believe it.

Those who make mistakes and shame the family will be expelled from the master.Those who are expelled from the teacher need to walk barefoot on the road of thorns.

The so-called road of thorns is a road paved with red-hot coals and sharp thorns. If you step on the thorns, you will be punctured, and the scarlet coals will burn you, which is cruel and terrifying.

It is said that the punishment of the Road of Thorns was established by the first celestial master of the Zhong family.No one has successfully walked this road. The charcoal fire burned the skin on the feet, and the thorns pierced the fresh tender flesh. The double pain caused people who walked this road to choose to commit suicide on the spot.

……

The celestial masters of the Zhong family and the disciples were all present. Zhong Wanning has always been a faith-like existence in their hearts. They expect and believe that Zhong Wanning will lead them to fulfill the duties of the celestial masters and carry forward the righteous way in their hearts in the future. leader.

But now, this leader began to defend the evil spirits and began to overthrow the beliefs in the hearts of the celestial masters.Such a deviant way is bound to be a wrong road of no return, everyone thinks so.

Everyone is afraid of this thorny road. In other words, they may be afraid of pain and hopelessness. No one is willing to give up a bright future to overthrow the road paved by the ancestors.

They are used to walking on the smooth road, no one dares to step on the thorns...

The charcoal fire on the ground is very hot, even standing by can feel the residual heat.The charcoal fire was burning red, and the air above it seemed to be melting and blurred. The thorns with spiritual power could not be burned by the fire, and the sharp thorns were facing upwards, as if expecting to be poured with blood.

[My Wife Xie Wanyun], on the red-painted stone and wood, is a square font written with a golden brush.

Zhong Wanning hugged her mother's tablet to her chest, and walked barefoot to the road of thorns.

"Sister!"

Ye Zhinan was crying heart-rendingly, if Luo Sheng was not stopping him, he might have rushed up.

Zhong Wanning looked around at the crowd, Zhong Dangu was still so majestic but expressionless.The Taoists and inner disciples present were puzzled, fearful, and dismissive...

Zhong Wanning hugged the memorial tablet in her arms silently, sighed, but the expression she was expecting did not appear in the end.

Looking at the thorny road in front of him, Zhong Wanning stepped on it without hesitation.

The sizzling sound made people uncomfortable, and the pain made Zhong Wanning frown and grunt in pain.

"Mother, after today, Wan Ning will find her way..."

It was really painful, Zhong Wanning's voice trembled a little, but she still held the tablet with all her strength to prevent it from falling.

"As a celestial master, it is my responsibility to maintain the balance of yin and yang in the world, fairness and justice in the world. Over the years, countless ghosts have died under my money sword. But Wan Ning never knew why they died, and why I wanted to kill them."

The road of thorns is still going on, and blood has long been soaked in this road.The blood doused part of the charcoal fire, making some small stinging sounds, and sweat flowed down his cheeks.

"Those who are evil spirits should be punished. All celestial masters are regarded as the standard, and children are also the same. But I met one person, and she reprimanded this truth every word. I can't be a killer..."

The thorns pierced the soles of the feet, and the pain in the feet was so severe that Zhong Wanning staggered and almost failed to stand still.

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Wanning continued walking: "I've never doubted the truth in this book before, grievances, resentment, and obsession are all the wishes of others. As a celestial master, it seems that we only need to kill them. But if this is the case, wouldn't this run counter to our morality of becoming a celestial master?"

"I want to see the outside world, to see the voices of the souls that exist in this world." Panting heavily, the teeth could not stop shaking: "Mother... If you are still here, will you be so happy?" Like a father, I think my idea is ridiculous..."

Zhong Wanning touched the words on the plaque, looked at the road that was about to come to an end, and Yu Zhuo showed a rare smile on his face: "Mother, I want to take you to meet someone... No, it's not alone... "

The words were ambiguous, as if she was amused by herself, Zhong Wanning shook her head: "I just want to tell her that there are really people in this world who are willing to look at it carefully, and there are really people who want to put her on the top of their hearts..."

I want to tell her my heart, I want to face the injustice in this world with her...

Lost all the glory in the world, still have the original heart to take care of the old...

Taking the last step, she seemed to see Ye Zhinan running towards her with tears in her eyes.

Smiling one last time, Zhong Wanning held the tablet and lost consciousness...

"Mom, I miss you so much..."
