Chen Jin was exhausted both physically and mentally, so he bent over his desk on the altar and fell asleep.
I don't know how much time has passed since I slept, but it was already dark in the side hall.
Suddenly, someone came in. He was thin and wearing a slovenly Daoist robe that had not been washed for an unknown period of time.
"Master Qin?"
Chen Jin suddenly woke up and asked hurriedly, "How come you are here, but the elders have results?"
Qin Jianyuan said in a deep voice, "Chen Jin, the Great Elder and others have unanimously decided to Heart Questioning you.
"Heart Questioning?"
Chen Jin was startled.
As a disciple of Lower Court, he naturally knows the power of this method. It is said that as long as you start Heart Questioning and ask and answer questions, any secrets in your heart will be revealed and all will be asked out.
Qin Jianyuan looked at him with burning eyes. "Chen Jin, I know that you are hiding something in your heart when you return to the mountain this time, and it is related to that Yan Hui, isn't it?"
Chen Jin replied, "I did have some entanglements with her in the past, but it has all passed."
"Because you have already killed her? So you came back just to kill her and break the emotional crisis in your heart!"
"No, Master Qin, I went back to the mountain to practice better."
Qin Jianyuan stretched out his hand and touched the sparse beard on his chin, and chin slightly. "It's good not to forget your original intention - but before you formally accept Heart Questioning, I ask you again, is there anything you want to hide from me? If so, just tell me, and I will make the decision for you and get justice."
Facing this familiar face, Chen Jin was deeply moved in her heart and wanted to tell her heart to heart, pouring out all the grievances she had suffered in the past in order to gain comfort.
Because in his mind: Master Qin is a respectable elder and a person who can be trusted.
Chen Jin Just when he was about to speak, he saw a ray of moonlight shining in, making the side hall bright.
He suddenly noticed that there was no shadow behind Master Qin.
In an instant, a question arose in his mind: With Master Qin Dao Emulates Own Inherent Spontaneity's temper, he would never ask himself the same question over and over again----
"Hey!"
With a sigh, Qin Jianyuan's eyes suddenly changed, as if they turned into two whirlpools, and he said word by word, "Chen Jin, do you know that you did something wrong."
Chen Jin's expression became sluggish, and his conscious thoughts seemed to be sucked into the vortex, spinning repeatedly, then being shattered, and then reassembled.
In this process, the whole person feels like traveling through time and space, returning to a certain node in the past.
This is when the memory is looking back. When looking back, Chen Jin can once again review the various decisions and choices he has made before.
When a person begins to recall the past, he or she will often have some thoughts of regret.
In other words, would you reflect on whether the outcome would have been different if you had chosen to do this instead of that?
Would it be better?
For example, in the matter of killing Yan Hui.
At that time, Chen Jin might have returned home instead of returning to the mountain gate; or he might have chosen to hide somewhere else and concentrate on practicing.
In his situation, he possesses the top-notch Daoist dharma. As long as he practices diligently and diligently for five years or even three years, he can quickly improve his cultivation level.
Wouldn't it be much smoother to kill Yan Hui at that time?
Isn't it right? Revenge is the obsession. If we don't get rid of this thought, how can we achieve it?
Moreover, three years is too long and can easily lead to changes. If the other party is successfully promoted to Upper Court, it will be a legacy of raising a tiger.
This road is blocked.
Therefore, returning to the mountain is an inevitable choice.
But if you shouldn't take action on Sword Competition, you can choose a more sensible approach.
For example, if you lure a snake out of its hole and go down the mountain, Yan Hui will naturally take the bait and follow you. When you get outside, you can assassinate it without anyone noticing, and you'll be done with it.
This approach is safe and secretive, and will not leave any trace behind, nor will it arouse the suspicion of the elders, leading to the current situation.
So, did I do something wrong?
Chen Jin pondered.
Doubts from others outside are like cold wind and frost, but as long as the heart is strong, it can withstand it; however, when self-doubt arises in the heart, it is like a sharp thorn piercing the heart, causing heartache, tossing and turning, and no peace——
"Chen Jin, you shouldn't do this, you really did something wrong."
The voice of Qin Jianyuan was ringing and echoing in my ears, each word was like a bug, burrowing into my ears and trying to get into my heart.
Chen Jin suddenly felt itchy and unbearable, and could not help but feel regretful:
Maybe, I really didn't do a good job and made a mess, which not only brought huge trouble to myself, but also made Master Qin worried.
How would the elders think of killing a fellow junior sister in public?
What would other fellow disciples think?
Chen Jin was caught in a struggle. The moonlight that previously shone into the side hall became dim and dim. The inside of the hall was as dark as the bottom of the water, making people breathless.
Qin Jianyuan strode forward and stood in front of Chen Jin. His figure improved in vain, and his face changed, suddenly transforming into the majestic appearance of the founder Orthodox God.
The founder stared at Chen Jin condescendingly and shouted loudly, "Chen Jin, just admit your mistakes, and then you can turn around and make peace!"
The momentum exploded, like a mountain.
Chen Jin's body trembled, and in an instant, the spiritual platform that had become confused returned to clarity:
No, that's not the case.
The reason why I chose to take revenge on Sword Competition is because I have experienced the peak of Sword Competition. I was once high-spirited, then started to fall, fell to the bottom, and finally stood up----
This is a process of living toward death.
When you do things as a human being, you should have a beginning and an end.
Therefore, it starts from Sword Competition and ends with Sword Competition.
Only in this way can this thought feel happy.
"I Heart Questioning have no guilt, what does it have to do with others?"
With this thought, Chen Jin faced the Patriarch without fear. "I am not wrong!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the sun rose to the east and shone brightly.
Under the sunlight, the tall and majestic image of the Patriarch was reduced to ashes.
It's dawn.
The warm sunlight passed through the window lattice and door, shone into the side hall, and shone on the altar. The incense in the copper furnace on the altar had been burned out.
Where is the Qin Jianyuan? Where is the ancestor?
Only one blue-robed disciple fell asleep at his desk and still didn't wake up.
Bang!
There was a crisp sound, and fragments scattered in all directions, some fell to the ground, and some shot onto the wall. Each piece shone brightly, emitting extraordinary material brilliance.
It can be seen from this that they were originally a good treasure, but now they have been broken and become waste.
"This, this is?"
Yao Wuya, who had always been dignified and steady, showed a rare look of shock and cried out.
Sun Yiming Ma Long and others looked at each other with different expressions.
Xue Hongmei's face quickly dimmed, because she knew that Heart Questioning had failed, and Chen Jin's assassination of Yan Hui had come to an end, and there was no way to investigate and hold accountable.
Qin Jianyuan had a strange look on his face and muttered, "Fortunately, I didn't accept him as my disciple----"
