Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 572: Saint or Demon?

Mu Jianli did not stay in the palace for long. She had already said goodbye to Xue Mu early in the morning, and was just escorting Xue Mu into the palace to see Ji Wuyou. Seeing that the situation was stable and there was no point in staying in the palace for a long time, he really said goodbye: "Jianli is going to Tianji Icefield. I will pay close attention to what you said. If I find anything, I will find someone to tell you immediately."

Xue Mu accompanied her out of the side door of the inner palace and said: "As for the way of killing love, you can tell the whole sect that there is no need to spend time looking for it. It is clear that they are hidden by the emperor and cannot be found. At a certain time, they will all play their due role. We only need to keep an eye on the emperor's movements. It will not be too late to take action at that time. Secondly, it is time for your master to come out of seclusion. Whether he has returned to his peak or not, he will have his own revenge. Proposal. You can focus more on the development of the sect. Tianji Icefield is one thing, and the other is the tunnel."

"Yeah." Mu Jianli smiled and said, "I also want to tell you about this. Jianzhou has to open rail lines, and Qixuan Valley cannot be allowed to be more beautiful than before. If the transportation department is established, the next step will be for Jianzhou, But you can’t give it to others first.”

Xue Mu smiled and said: "At this time, you look like a sect leader, and you have the intention of competing with other families."

Mu Jianli stopped and whispered: "In front of you, the Queen Mother is no longer the Queen Mother, how can the Sect Master be the Sect Master? If not for parting soon, I don't want to talk more about the sect. Sometimes I feel that there is a dispute between one family and one faction. , it’s really not interesting...Xue Mu, you know..."

"Um?"

"You and I once talked about Taoism, and I said that you had the ambition to bring peace to the world. It had not yet appeared at that time, but now that we have met, it becomes clearer to us. The matter of transportation was said to be to resist the emperor, but it was actually a long-lasting contribution. And when the emperor still While you are trying your best to seize power and respect, you are secretly worried about evil and chaos in the world. Ji Wuyou said that heroes are rivals, but in Jianli's view, those who avoid the world and seek truth, those who care about breakthroughs, and those who are greedy for power and profit will immediately Even if you are on top of the world, you cannot be called a hero. In today's world, the only person who can be called a hero is you."

Xue Mu was so thick-skinned that his face turned red when he heard this: "I'm really not that great...many things happen by the way..."

"It's just that you always feel that you are just greedy and lustful, and you don't realize that you are actually great." Mu Jianli smiled slightly: "There are no perfect people in this world, so just be greedy. I should say you are lucky to be like this. Otherwise, how could Jianli be by your side?"

Xue Mu laughed and said, "In order to live up to Jianli's expectations, it seems I have to work harder."

Mu Jianli said seriously: "If this day comes, Jianli is willing to be the sword in your hand to cleanse the world for you."

Mu Jianli walked alone with his sword behind his back, his upright figure disappearing all the way out of the palace and straight out of the capital. Xue Mu watched her back silently, feeling reluctant to leave, but he did not stop her journey to the ice field.

Xue Mu has always been very self-aware. He knows that it is not him who is great. He must say that there is a great person, it is better to say that it is Mu Jianli himself.

The so-called red when close to vermilion, black when close to ink, the mutual influence between people is very obvious. Mu Jianli was led by Xue Mu to the point where she no longer cared about his lustful nature. On the contrary, she felt that this shortcoming made him more alive, so much so that when he bullied the Queen Mother in front of her, Mu Jianli even smiled slightly and felt confused. Take it seriously.

The same is true in reverse. Mu Jianli's bravery and chivalrous spirit must have had a great influence on Xue Mu. In other words, not only Mu Jianli, but also the women and friends around him had some influence on his temperament. Their shining points made him like them, and he unknowingly drew closer to them.

Modern people have too much knowledge and do not have very firm ideals. It is difficult to decide whether to go left or right. They only have one thought and are very influenced by the environment. For their happiness and anger, what Xue Mu does will naturally be more positive and positive that makes them happy. If he were surrounded by Shadow Wing Xujing Xia Wenxuan for a long time, Xue Mu was not sure what he would look like to this day. It was not impossible that he might become a vicious and perverted demon who took pleasure in harming others.

He affects the world, and the environment also affects him, like snowflakes falling into a pond.

…

When he returned to Cining Palace, Xue Mu was still in a trance. Liu Wanxi sat pitifully and looked at him for a long time, thinking that he was looking down on her, and she felt aggrieved... You have such bad thoughts, do you still want everyone not to be angry?

"Just keep a straight face." Liu Wanxi sniffed: "You and Chan'er are in love, and you didn't tell her earlier. What will you do now..."

"Huh?" Xue Mu came to his senses and said hurriedly: "No, no, of course this is my problem. It's normal for you to lose your temper."

"Then what's wrong with you?" Liu Wanxi asked curiously, "Are you reluctant to let go of Mu Jianli? Do you like her so much?"

"Jianli is a free and easy swordsman. She is not entangled in the entanglement of men and women. She can be tender and affectionate, and she can also travel thousands of miles with her sword. This is her unique charm. Although I am reluctant to let her travel around the world, I also hope that her swordsmanship will be better. Go further and live up to your natural sword bones."

"Then what are you doing?"

"I'm thinking that whether it's Jianli, Xiahou or Xue Xin, it seems that their expectations for me are a bit too high." I feel like I can’t afford it.”

"That's it..." Liu Wanxi suddenly smiled: "In the eyes of their gentlemen, you have the world in mind, and in the eyes of our demon sect, you are omnipotent. According to the way you wrote the story, this kind of character is indeed ridiculously big."

Xue Mu said helplessly: "So, it is very tiring to maintain this character... The world and the people are omnipotent. The proposition is so big... What will happen if the character collapses one day?"

Liu Wanxi said contemptuously: "Are you still afraid of collapse? In fact, you are just a monster who secretly thinks about mother and daughter, but you want to turn yourself into a perfect person, and the Hehuan Sect laughs."

Xue Mu sighed: "I really misjudged it at that time. Your situation went too far beyond common sense..."

Liu Wanxi was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "Forget it, I was the one who hooked up with you first, so it makes no sense to blame you. Ordinarily, I should thank you. You could have concealed the situation for your own thoughts, and waited until We can't do anything to you when we show our cards after the raw rice is cooked... But you didn't, so you should let Chan'er come and get to know me first. For this reason alone, I can't blame you."

"That's what it should be..."

I said that, but the two of them looked at me, each feeling a little embarrassed.

This is supposed to be the relationship between mother-in-law and son-in-law. It has reached the point where they have even played with grape trellises. They have gone through every road...

"Xue Mu..." Liu Wanxi said, "If you are really good with Chan'er, then let's break it off."

Xue Mu didn't answer, just looked at her without speaking.

This time Liu Wanxi didn't dare to raise her head, she lowered her head and said nothing.

"So I, Xue Mu, turned out to be just Mr. Jiajiao of the Queen Mother?"

"No, it's not like that, Xue Mu..." Liu Wanxi was a little panicked: "It's not like that..."

"From the moment I knew it, I never thought about giving up on anyone." Xue Mu whispered: "You are right, I, Xue Mu, am not a saint or a perfect person, but a demon... To put it bluntly, everything I have done has nothing to do with it. Good things and bad things are just to get different people...I want to get everything I haven't got, and how can I lose what I have got?"
