Chapter 229: Sarcasm
Chu Xinglan sighed, stopped and turned around.
With his arms crossed, he looked at Yizhen with disdain: "You are really different from Fuwawa. If he were here, I'm afraid he wouldn't care at all."
Yizhen chuckled. He didn't even need to think about the lucky doll Chu Xinglan mentioned, he knew he was talking about Yiqing.
However, Chu Xinglan's words hit the nail on the head. He knew very well what kind of personality his junior brother had. That was why his master was so worried about him.
However, looking at this guy in front of me who said he was not worthy but acted righteously, who said he was not worthy but still couldn't bear to be cruel, I didn't expose him.
"Please understand me. If I do nothing today and let him die in front of me, I'm afraid he will be drowned in front of Hanshan Temple tomorrow."
Chu Xinglan was choked by his words. He glared at him, then stuck the sword into the snow mountain again and sat on it himself.
The mountain is quite steep, especially since it looks like the monk wants to have a chat with someone, so it would be more comfortable to sit down.
But in the end he didn't refute anything, but still didn't look over here. He took out his jade slip and started fiddling with it.
My master still hasn't replied to the message. It seems that this secret realm has cut off all means of communication.
Now he couldn't go up the mountain, and he didn't have the heart to meditate here, so he took out a storybook from the bell and read it out of boredom.
On the other hand, thanks to the elixir, Chen Rui has gotten much better.
After he expressed his gratitude to Yizhen, he couldn't help but glance at Chu Xinglan. Afraid of being discovered by him, he took a sneak peek and quickly retracted his gaze. Seeing that the other party didn't notice, he took another sneak peek.
After examining his body, Yizhen found some strange things and wanted to ask about them, but when he looked up, he saw Chen Rui acting sneakily.
The look of wanting to talk to Chu Xinglan but not daring to do so really made him feel a little amused.
What's more, what surprised Yizhen was that Chen Rui looked at Chu Xinglan with a look of admiration.
Yizhen didn't understand and was greatly shocked. A rare sense of absurdity appeared in his heart.
He asked with some amusement: "That guy is about to leave you here to die, and you still think he is a good person?"
Chen Rui then realized that his behavior had been discovered, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.
But when he saw from the corner of his eye that Chu Xinglan seemed to have heard nothing at all, he felt a little disappointed.
After calming down, he said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, but I will always remember your kindness and will repay you generously in the future."
Before Yizhen could say anything, Chu Xinglan snorted coldly and spoke, but he still didn't look at Chen Rui.
"You are a guy who wants nothing, what can you do to repay the Buddhist disciples of Hanshan Temple, the future abbot of Hanshan Temple?"
"I'm afraid that if you give up your life, you will be seen as a burden by others."
As soon as he said this, Chen Rui's eyes, which had been bright because of his words, instantly became dim again.
Yizhen glared at Chu Xinglan helplessly. It was the first time he knew Chu Xinglan had such a temper. In his opinion, he just had a childish temper. He was just like his own junior brother. No wonder these two could play together.
Just thinking about Yiqing going back and bragging to him about how great Chu Xinglan was, Yizhen's mouth twitched unconsciously.
He was just about to say a few words to comfort Chen Rui when Chu Xinglan closed the notebook in his hand and looked at Chen Rui expressionlessly.
"Why, do you think I was wrong?"
Chen Rui glanced at him, and when he saw the indifference in those red eyes, he looked away in panic.
"No...no."
Chu Xinglan sneered: "You are a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, but at such a young age, you have reached a realm that many people dream of, and even a realm that many people find difficult to reach."
"Others can live for another fifty years, but you can even live for a hundred or two hundred years."
"You have obtained something that many people dream of, so why would you be dissatisfied? Why would you give up your life so easily just because of a few words from others?"
Yizhen looked at Chen Rui, who seemed to want to bury him, and wanted to speak to ease the atmosphere.
But when he met Chu Xinglan's calm eyes, he still closed his mouth.
He couldn't say that Chu Xinglan was wrong. Although he saved people, it didn't mean that he thought Chen Rui had no problems.
In the world of cultivation, there are too many people with tragic life stories. Even in their Hanshan Temple, most of the fellow disciples were abandoned babies.
There are many examples of people whose entire families were murdered when they were young, those who narrowly escaped death from natural disasters or man-made calamities, and those who had their blood sucked by their parents or siblings.
Nine out of ten people in this world have their own misfortunes, and the key lies in how you walk your own path.
He also noticed that Chen Rui had some character problems. He seemed to see an old and corrupt soul in him.
Timid, cowardly, not daring to resist, allowing oneself to go further and further into the darkness until eventually shattered and dissipated.
Chu Xinglan couldn't help but feel even angrier when he saw that Chen Rui was still mute despite his harsh words.
He jumped down, walked in front of Chen Rui, raised his hand and pinched Chen Rui's chin, forcing him to look up at him.
When Chu Xinglan saw the tear marks on his face, her eyes flashed, but she quickly covered them up and looked at him with a sneer.
"Why, you're a man, and you're crying?"
"Are you going to make me cry to death or drown me?"
"All the skills you have learned and cultivated over the years, are they just for show?"
Seeing that Chen Rui still said nothing, Chu Xinglan let go of his chin and said with disgust.
"No wonder no one likes you. Even if you want to protect others, they don't appreciate it. Instead, they think you are meddling in their affairs."
"I really stepped on dog shit today, and I ran into someone as unlucky as you. Remember, don't show up in front of me next time."
After saying that, Chu Xinglan turned and left. This time he showed no mercy at all. After a few jumps, he disappeared from Chen Rui's sight.
Yizhen wanted to say something, but looking at Chen Rui's expression, he shook his head, left him a few bottles of pills, and stood up to chase in the direction Chu Xinglan left.
Chen Rui tightly clenched his palms, the back of his hands, and his neck. Veins bulged on his forehead and his eyes turned red uncontrollably.
He stared at the direction where Chu Xinglan and the other two were going, his heart filled with violent emotions, and he murmured softly: "No, it's not like that."
The sound became louder and louder, and finally he collapsed and shouted in the direction where the two people left: "No!"
After shouting, Chen Rui was suddenly stunned. He felt that the violent and out-of-control feeling in his chest suddenly improved a lot.
He raised his hand and touched his chest in disbelief, the echo of his own words still ringing in his ears.
It rings in my ears over and over again.
