Chapter 360 The Difference Between Correctness and Justice
Bai Song suspected that the Holy Lotus Sect was behind everything.
Although Bai Song's suspicion was well founded, and Bai Song himself believed it deeply.
As long as the imperial court sends troops to attack Qingfeng Village, Qingfeng Village will definitely be unable to resist. A group of people may be killed and arrested, but more bandits will hide in the mountains.
When the officers and soldiers retreated, the remaining bandits could no longer organize a stronghold, but they were very likely to be directly absorbed by the Holy Lotus Sect. This would undoubtedly increase the strength of the Holy Lotus Sect.
This is what Bai Song is worried about, but it is not what the old general is worried about.
As a general, your main responsibility is to act according to orders.
The military order asked him to destroy Qingfeng Village, and he could not change it just because of Bai Song's words.
Shi Liang smiled and said: "Mr. Bai, this matter is of great importance, and it cannot be changed by just a few words or a little doubt from you."
Bai Song frowned. He was not surprised to receive such an answer. It's just that Bai Song didn't want things to develop in a direction he didn't want to see. Now that he couldn't change the military's opinion, he could only change the bandits' opinion first.
"Old General, I know things are embarrassing for you, but can you give me a day to go back to Qingfeng Village and talk to their leader. Maybe I can get to the bottom of the murder."
"Mr. Bai, why are you so enthusiastic about some bandits?"
"Some people stand in a gray area. If someone pushes them, they will be in the light. If someone pulls them, they will fall into darkness... In this case, why can't they save people if they can kill people? These scholars can still not care about their personal safety in times of crisis and risk their lives.
Risking his life to go back and save more people. As a general, there are many things that the general cannot help himself, but sometimes should he also consider the difference between right and justice?"
“What is the difference between right and justice?”
The old general's body was trembling slightly, but one word was like a thousand pounds of weight.
He had never looked down on these weak scholars, but when he heard that several scholars at the rear resolutely returned to save people after learning that bandits were killing people, he felt a lot of admiration in his heart.
And this Bai Song fought for opportunities for a group of bandits who were not completely corrupted. If a righteous person hears it, why bother to care about the reason?
Shi Liang took a deep breath and looked at Bai Song seriously: "You should know that even if the matter is found out and I have the general's command, I will not leave these bandits alone."
"Then I would advise them to leave and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, never to appear in the court's sight."
"Okay! I will make an exception today and give Mr. Bai one day. If the bandits in Qingfeng Village are really what Mr. Bai said, they were wronged. After that day, I will attack Qingfeng Village, and everyone in Qingfeng Village will
If there is no one in Qingfeng Stronghold, I will lead my troops to evacuate and report the truth to my superiors."
Bai Song hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, General."
After saying that, Bai Song turned and left.
The four scholars were still sitting there, dumbfounded and didn't know what to do. They just heard Bai Song mentioned the four people earlier and saw the admiring eyes of the old general. Now everyone's blood is boiling, and they feel that Beier has face.
"General, we..."
Cui Xing tried to ask.
Shi Liang waved his hand: "You all please step aside. You can leave on your own after you have rested."
The four of them were ordered to go out, find Bai Song again, and thank him repeatedly.
"Thank you Mr. Bai for giving me some kind words in front of the general. I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be both a just and generous person! Compared to me, we only brag about our achievements in front of others, but don't say much about Mr. Bai's talents.
It was the key to saving everyone."
"That's right, Mr. Bai is such a person, and we are all ashamed of him! Mr. Bai, just wait, we will tell the truth of the matter right now, so that everyone knows what kind of person Mr. Bai is!"
Bai Song smiled: "No, I still have things to do. You can leave after you have rested. We are destined to meet in the capital."
"Mr. Bai, I heard the conversation between you and the old general earlier. Do you still want to go back to Qingfeng Village? That is too dangerous! You must not do it!"
"Don't worry, everyone, I have my own sense of discretion. I will definitely see you again in the future."
After saying that, Bai Song bowed his hands to the four of them to say goodbye.
Seeing that Bai Song had made up his mind, the four of them had no choice but to salute Bai Song, and then everyone dispersed.
At the foot of Qingfeng Hill, Mo Zhu and Jian Shisan arrived at Bai Song's side.
"My boss, is it time to leave now? When I came here, I had already signed a military order with Qing. I took the young master to the capital within seven days. Now three days have passed, and there is not enough time."
"The situation has changed, we have to return to Qingfeng Village."
"Ha?" Mo Zhu glared with bright eyes, "You want to go back? What are you doing? Is it possible that you really want to take the village owner back to be your little wife? How can she be as good-looking as my young lady from the Mo family? It would be better to marry Ji Qing than marry her.
I think this will work! Little Thirteen, do you think so?"
I don’t know what Jian Shisan has to do with Mo Zhu. He is a big boss, but he was called Xiao Shisan by a girl, but Jian Shisan didn’t say anything and pretended not to hear.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Bai Song interrupted and recounted his conversation with General Shi Liang and his worries. The focus was on the worry that Qingfeng Village would be used by the Holy Lotus Sect.
Bai Song was determined to return to Qingfeng Village because he wanted to help Wang Dali. He could see that this woman was just a little crazy. She lacked some discipline when she was a child and was not a real bad person.
What's more, the Bai Song Dynasty did not allow the Holy Lotus Sect to become stronger under his nose, absorbing and poisoning more followers.
In Bai Song's heart, the Holy Lotus Sect is his number one threat. The stronger the Holy Lotus Sect means that he becomes more dangerous. How can a person like Bai Song, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, let this matter go?
The purpose of the Bai Song Dynasty was to kill all the Holy Lotus Sect, killing everyone on sight without leaving any future troubles!
After learning about this, Mo Zhu knew that he could not leave, so he said dejectedly: "It's over, I will definitely have my wages deducted when I go back this time. Boss, you have to make up for it for Zhu Zi."
Bai Song was not very familiar with Mo Zhu. Judging from her usual behavior, she could be summed up in just two words - village girl.
At a young age, her temperament is like that of a farm aunt. Sometimes she is arrogant, otherworldly, and has an unearthly look. Sometimes she is a money-crazy, very philistine. She likes to make money and is very interested in being a bank manager.
You can say whatever comes to mind, you can be cute or silly, but a set of Kung Fu that relies on bamboo is very powerful.
She is Ji Qing's cousin, a side branch of the Mo family. She did not follow Mr. Mo's instructions to join the Holy Lotus Sect, but instead followed Mo Ji Qing's instructions to join Mo Bai Qianzhuang.
The same goes for Sword Thirteen.
Jian Shisan did not join the Holy Lotus Sect, and Mo Jiqing did not allow them to join the Holy Lotus Sect. But like Mo Zhu, he chose to join Mo Bai Qianzhuang.
Many people in the Mo family made the same choice. They were unwilling to join the Holy Lotus Sect, but were willing to join the Mobai Money Bank.
This point troubled Bai Song a little at first, until he got the answer from Qing'er.
Because the people of the Mohist family do not want revenge, they only want to revive.
The Mobai Bank of the Bai Song Dynasty weaved a beautiful dream for the people of the Mo family. Even if the Bai Song Dynasty did not make too many promises, the descendants of the Mo family were willing to believe that everything was true.
Qing'er also said that the establishment of Mo Bai Qianzhuang is of great significance. Bai Song has given hope to the descendants of the Mo family, and this hope must be continued. If one day, the people of the Mo family discover that Bai Song's promise is just to take advantage of the Mo family.
Strength, then Bai Song will definitely have the greatest backlash against his conduct.
Jian Shisan said very few words because he had doubts in his heart and did not fully trust Bai Song. Now he was just doing something within his power to see if what the young man did next was in line with the Mo family's expectations.
During this period of time, Jian Shisan was willing to surrender his identity and recognize him as his master, and was willing to become the sword in Bai Song's hand.
…
With only one day left, Bai Song accelerated his journey.
After having internal strength, without using Qinggong, Bai Song can be as good as Jian Shisan in terms of leg strength alone.
After walking for a while, Mo Zhu started shouting and couldn't walk anymore.
Mo Zhusheng had special moves in kung fu, but his internal strength was not his strong point. Moreover, the three of them walked too fast. The whole day's journey only took one stick of incense. In the blink of an eye, not only did the three of them enter the mountain col, but the creek in front of them was also covered.
You can see it.
Mo Zhu wiped his sweat and waved his hands: "Xiao Shisan, give me water quickly! I'm exhausted! You will leave later, and I will follow you with Qinggong. I didn't expect that you are also a monster, my boss. I can't walk away, Xiao Shisan."
How come you can’t even walk away?”
Before Bai Song could answer, Jian Shisan, who had always been taciturn, suddenly spoke: "He has seventy years of Xu Hua's internal energy in his body. His internal energy cultivation is the best in the world, and he has reached the first level in the ages. He just doesn't know how to use it now."
."
Bai Song and Mo Zhu were both shocked!
Bai Song didn't expect that his secret would be seen through by Jian Shisan at a glance!
Mo Zhu was a little confused: "What did you say? He has seventy years of skill in his body? Who is Xu Hua? Why does this name sound so familiar?"
Jian Shisan said nothing more.
But Mo Zhu suddenly thought of something, and his eyes almost popped out of his head. He suddenly threw himself on Bai Song, pushed Bai Song to the ground, and sat directly on Bai Song's waist, as if he was trying to do something to an animal.
Mo Zhu didn't take off Bai Song's clothes, but pinched Bai Song's palm. After a little trial, he was suddenly covered in cold sweat. He took a few steps back and said in horror: "The legendary great master... put...
I passed on all my inner strength to you! Why? Why is God so unfair!"
Mo Zhu was so startled that he almost went crazy. His envious eyes made him want to eat Bai Song.
"Boss! You... what kind of chosen son are you? It would be great if the skills of these seventy years were given to Zhuzi. Zhuzi would be the best in the world... not the best master in the ages! When did you meet the great master?
Huh? Why is there no news at all?"
"Do you still remember the old monk in the Baifu Zen Room?" Bai Song asked casually.
"Ah? That old monk is the great master Xu Hua who disappeared for fifteen years?"
Bai Song didn't say anything more, and Mo Zhu regretfully said that he would have gone to apprentice every day if he had known.
"Let's go, it's all personal opportunity, you can't force it." Jian Shisan added.
"Little Thirteen!" Mo Zhu puffed up his cheeks angrily, "You have known this for a long time, right? Why are you so calm? Isn't the Guiyi realm a realm that you have always been beyond your reach? Why are you not jealous at all?"
"Why be jealous?"
"Look at me! Look at you! Even a great master would give up seventy years of skills. When will you pass on your inner skills to me!"
"Wait until I'm about to die."
"No one in this world can kill you. How long will I wait?"
The three of them arrived at Qingfeng Village chattering and noisily, but inside the village they felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
