Fang Xuanzong was shocked. When they followed Elder Feng to this teleportation gate, they didn't see any courtyard.
After hesitating for a moment, Fang Xuanzong strode towards the courtyard.
This is an almost abandoned courtyard. The courtyard is small, but very neat and clean.
In the courtyard, most of the area is occupied by flower beds. In the flower beds, there are various flowers and plants growing, some are elegant, some are gorgeous, some are high-profile, some are mediocre... Various flowers and plants of different styles grow in the small flower beds, but they are not beautiful.
It seems messy, but it feels just right and integrated.
Fang Xuanzong's eyes passed over these flowers and plants, and fell on a man in green in the flower garden.
The man in green had gentle eyes and an elegant expression. He was holding a bucket in one hand and a spoon in the other. He was watering and fertilizing the flowers in a leisurely manner, looking very leisurely and contented.
Even though Fang Xuanzong had been anxious and full of doubts before, the moment he saw the man in green, he couldn't help but feel much calmer.
The man in green didn't seem to care about Fang Xuanzong's arrival. He still focused on waving the wooden spoon gently to water his flowerbed.
In Fang Xuanzong's perception, the man in green didn't have any internal energy fluctuations at all. He felt like a weak scholar in the human world, inconspicuous.
However, the more this happened, the more frightened Fang Xuanzong became.
Fang Xuanzong is completely sure that the reason why he appears here is most likely caused by this man in green. With such means, this man in blue cannot be an ordinary scholar, but he can't sense anything.
.
There is only one explanation for this. The cultivation level of the man in green in front of him has far surpassed his own, reaching an unfathomable level.
"Senior, I wonder if you summoned this junior to come here for something?"
After pondering for a moment, Fang Xuanzong bowed and took the initiative to break the silence.
However, the man in green didn't seem to hear it and continued what he was doing.
Being left alone by the man in green, Fang Xuanzong was a little at a loss. But soon, Fang Xuanzong turned his eyes and saw another wooden bucket and a small wooden spoon placed in the corner, so he also took the initiative to fill up the water.
, imitating the man in green, he began to water the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
Fang Xuanzong was not good at gardening, but he did it well by imitating the actions of the man in green.
Seeing this scene, the man in green had a strange look in his eyes. He turned to look at Fang Xuanzong, but soon returned to normal and continued watering.
About a quarter of an hour later, with the efforts of the two people, the flowerbed was finally watered.
Fang Xuanzong put down the small wooden bucket and stopped being impatient. He stood quietly in the courtyard and looked at the man in green silently.
Finally, the man in green turned his head, his eyes fell on Fang Xuanzong, and he spoke.
"Your name is Fang Xuanzong?"
The man in green clothes spoke, his voice was like clear water in the mountains, fresh and clean, refreshing and refreshing.
"yes."
Fang Xuanzong nodded and said, the man in green is very capable and can summon him, so it is not surprising to know his name:
“I don’t know your senior’s surname?”
"I'm just an unknown person, and you don't need to call me senior. I'm here to ask you something this time, and I hope you can answer it truthfully."
The man in green said slowly.
"Senior, please ask."
"I have lived in seclusion here for several years, enjoying the clouds and wild cranes. I don't care about worldly affairs and have no other hobbies. I only like to play with flowers and plants. I am a person who loves flowers as much as my life. I have devoted myself to watering and cultivating every plant and flower here. I have witnessed that
From seed to germination and growth, they even gave each flower and plant a name. They are like my children."
The voice of the man in green rang out in the courtyard. As he spoke, he gently leaned down, touched a spiritual grass in the flower bed with his hand, and continued:
"You said, if one day someone breaks into my courtyard and breaks my favorite flowers, do you think I should be angry and argue with that person?"
"This... is naturally what it should be."
Although Fang Xuanzong felt a little confused, he still said seriously.
"Well, I think it should be."
After receiving Fang Xuanzong's reply, the man in green also nodded, then took out a broken and withered small yellow flower from his arms, and continued:
"Fang Xuanzong, do you know what this flower is called?"
"The younger generation is less talented and less knowledgeable, and does not know much about flowers, insects, plants, and trees. I still hope that the seniors can teach me."
Fang Xuanzong frowned and cupped his hands.
"The name of this flower is Little Golden Chrysanthemum. It is a seed that I got from the human world by chance. I use it to make tea. It has the effects of dispelling wind and clearing heat, calming the liver and improving eyesight, relieving heat and troubles, clearing the heart and detoxifying."
The man in green looked at the withered little golden chrysanthemum in his hand, with a look of memories in his eyes:
"This little golden chrysanthemum has only been planted in my courtyard for more than ten years. It is the weakest one. It has not yet grown up, but it has a strong personality and is quite high-profile. If you want to be strong and eager to go out and explore, it is the most inconvenient one for me.
I know his character, he is impulsive and irritable, and he is easy to break if he goes too far, which will definitely lead to trouble. Sure enough, three days ago, he was beheaded in the South China Sea and died."
Fang Xuanzong had been confused before, but when he heard the word "South China Sea", he felt like he had been pricked by a needle, and his whole body was suddenly startled.
Didn’t I just come back from the South China Sea?
The man in green was talking about flowers, but upon closer inspection, it seemed more like he was describing a person.
After all, how can a flower have a strong personality? Where can a small golden chrysanthemum grow for more than ten years?
Moreover, he also killed some people in the South China Sea, including the Three True Essence Monsters, Shi Yan, one of the Ten Great Serpents, the previous newcomer to the outer sect, Wang Jinmulei, and Jia Qing, who had the power of the Dragon Elephant... Could it be that these
Does Renzhong have anything to do with the man in green in front of me?
"Junior did fight with people in the South China Sea before and defeated some opponents. I wonder which one the senior is talking about?"
Fang Xuanzong said in a deep voice and simply asked directly.
"His name is Jin Mulei."
The man in green said every word.
"boom!"
"It's him?!"
Fang Xuanzong's pupils shrank, and he was filled with surprise. He never expected that there was such a terrifying backer behind Jin Mulei.
Moreover, if Jin Mulei is just the softest little golden chrysanthemum in the courtyard of the man in Tsing Yi, then what do the other flowers in the garden in the courtyard represent?
And just when Fang Xuanzong was thinking, the elegant voice of the man in green came into his ears again:
"He may have made some mistakes, but no matter what, he walked out of my courtyard after all. I have cultivated him for so many years. I can't just watch him wither and wither in vain, right?"
The man in green clothes held a small wooden spoon in his hand, looked at Fang Xuanzong, and smiled lightly.
His expression was still calm and indifferent, and he looked gentle and elegant, but at this moment, when Fang Xuanzong looked in his eyes, he could only feel his heart pounding.
"So, senior is looking for me to avenge Jin Mulei?"
Fang Xuanzong said solemnly.
"Killing for life is a matter of course."
The man in green said.
With just one sentence, the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became extremely tense.
Fang Xuanzong's heart sank to the bottom of the water. The man in green in front of him did not show off his appearance, but he gave Fang Xuanzong an extremely terrifying feeling. Especially when he said the words "kill someone to pay for your life", his eyes became even more intense.
A strong murderous intent burst out.
Fang Xuanzong had no doubt that he definitely had the strength to kill him.
Moreover, in front of such a master, running away is of no use.
"Senior wants to kill me to avenge Jin Mulei. I can understand your feelings, but before that, I have a question for you."
Fang Xuanzong took a deep breath, looked at the man in green, and said:
"As the saying goes, the biggest thing in the world is the word 'reason'. The senior has an elegant manner and a graceful demeanor. He must be a person who understands the righteousness and is reasonable, right?"
"nature."
The man in green nodded.
"very good."
Fang Xuanzong's eyes flashed, and the man in green's answer hit him right, and he continued:
"Senior, I have no enmity with that Jin Mulei. He provoked me first and killed me. I was forced to resist and then killed him. Now that he is dead, come and kill me and help him.
Revenge; but if I was killed by Jin Mulei in the previous battle, how should you deal with Jin Mulei?"
"In addition, as far as I know, Jin Mulei has killed many people before. Why didn't senior say that killing people should be punished with life, but now that he was killed, you said it? Senior, do you think this is really reasonable?
?”
After saying the last sentence, Fang Xuanzong's eyes were extremely sharp.
It is true that he killed Jin Mulei, but Jin Mulei was by no means a good person.
According to Luo Jingtian, Jin Mulei was able to become the number one person in the outer sect because his hands were stained with blood, and many of his disciples were killed and injured by him.
If according to what the man in Tsing Yi said, Jin Mulei had committed murder before and he should have "killed someone to pay for his life". However, he has been living well all these years. Obviously, the man in Tsing Yi did not punish Jin Mulei for this.
Now the man in Tsing Yi uses this rhetoric as a reason to kill himself. This is a typical case of favoring one over another.
According to Xianhe, it is "double standards"!
Fang Xuanzong also grasped this point and praised the man in Tsing Yi before, asking him to admit that he was a "reasonable" person and fall into his own rhythm.
——No matter how the man in Tsing Yi answers now, it will go against what he said before, and he will become an "unreasonable" person.
Sure enough, on the other side, the man in Tsing Yi, who had always been elegant and calm, suddenly stopped smiling, and for the first time he showed a solemn and serious expression.
His black and white eyes turned and he looked at Fang Xuanzong carefully, as if he was getting to know him again.
"I underestimated you. You are smarter than I thought."
After a moment of silence, the man in Tsing Yi spoke again:
"To be reasonable, I shouldn't kill you now, but... you should know that in the current fairy world, sometimes it is unreasonable."
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly changed, and the man in green took action instantly.
"What?!"
Almost at the same time, Fang Xuanzong's expression changed drastically.
He had said so much before that he was sure that the man in Tsing Yi was a reasonable person, and he hoped to use the word "reason" to restrain the man in Tsing Yi and win a chance for himself. In fact, he did it and made the man in Tsing Yi fall into the trap.
in his rhythm.
But what Fang Xuanzong never expected was that in the end, the man in Tsing Yi couldn't defeat him, so he immediately broke his skin and started to be "unreasonable".
"This guy is so polite, but he can get angry when he is embarrassed. What a mistake. Run!"
Fang Xuanzong looked ugly and cursed secretly in his heart.
But he would not sit still and wait for death. Boom, all his strength burst out, he turned around and ran away.
However, before he could take two steps, a clear voice came into his ears:
"return."
Just two words, but they seemed to have some kind of special magic power. Fang Xuanzong, who had been running away at high speed, immediately staggered, stopped, and turned around in the direction of the man in green as if out of control.
.
"!!!"
Seeing this scene, Fang Xuanzong was stunned, and his heart was filled with waves.
Follow your words!
Once spoken, all laws follow. This is the ability of Confucianism and Taoism in the human world. It can modify the rules of heaven and earth in an area. It is extremely powerful.
Could it be said that the man in green clothes in front of me is a Confucian and Taoist?
