Qin Chang'an nodded. He was not sure about persuading this guy, but no matter what, he didn't want to enter the Divine Palace City at this time.
Although it seems that Jingu City can guarantee its own safety on the surface, his identity threatens too many people, and not all of them are outsiders.
Zhao Ziling next to him secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zong Yuquan's words. Finally he no longer had to follow this troublesome guy. This guy would cause trouble wherever he went. He simply didn't take his life seriously.
Zong Yuquan took the two of them to Yingling Mountain again, and felt the black mountain in front of them up close. Qin Changan and Zhao Ziling both felt the sad aura rushing towards their faces.
It was as if we were in a battlefield, with countless soldiers holding long swords all around us, with determined expressions on their faces, and they were rushing towards the battlefield one after another.
Even though I know that going forward will lead to a dead end.
A quarter of an hour later, they followed the mountain stairs to the square on the mountainside. Han Mo Mo was still kneeling on the spot with his head lowered, as if he was a fossil.
Qin Changan and Zong Yuquan looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then walked over.
In front of Han Momo is a huge stone statue, and under the stone statue is a bronze cauldron. Lingxi incense is burning inside the cauldron, and wisps of green smoke are floating out of the cauldron.
He was not in a hurry to talk to Han Momo, but took three sticks of Lingxi incense from the desk beside him, lit a wisp of flame with his right index finger, lit the incense, raised the incense with solemn expression and bowed to the stone statue.
Then he inserted the incense into the bronze tripod and stood next to Han Mo Mo.
"Senior Brother Han, I know you can hear me. I am not here to persuade you on behalf of the palace. I just heard about your deeds, so I want to say a few words to you."
Han Momo didn't give any response, as if he was not a living person.
"I don't know what happened back then, but by kneeling here and making atonement for three years, you are not only sinking yourself into sin and unable to escape, but you are also trapping them in the sin of the past and unable to escape."
"It seems like you are atoning for your sins, but in fact you are dragging them to suffer with you. Do you think you can repay the sins of the past by kneeling here all the time? Do you think you can make them forgive you by kneeling here?
?”
Han Momo's body, which had not moved for three years, shook slightly at this moment, almost imperceptibly, as if it was an illusion and then returned to calm in the blink of an eye.
There's drama!
Qin Changan's eyes indeed lit up, and he had been looking at him intently. Although this action was still very slight, it at least showed that it had an effect, and he was not completely unable to listen.
"You are kneeling here just because you want to tell them that you were wrong back then, you want to make it up to them, you want to admit your mistake to them, but have you ever thought that you are kneeling here, which is really different for them?
A kind of torture?”
"Some mistakes, once committed, will last a lifetime. No matter what you do, you cannot make up for it. Even if you spend your whole life trying to make up for it, you still can't repay the original sin."
"Why don't you think about why you are alive just because you are strong enough? Are you lucky enough?"
"Have you ever thought that maybe they gave up their own hope in exchange for the possibility of you living? They want you to live with their hope."
"But what are you doing now? What are you doing? Are you using the hope they gave you to guard their graves? You are seeking your own psychological comfort, but you are abandoning their hope and leaving them in trouble and regret.
.”
"Do you know how much their wives and children have suffered in the past three years? Do you know how their family's situation has changed because of their sacrifice? Do the people they care about know the news of their sacrifice? Are they still there?
Waiting for their return?"
"Do you know these situations? You don't know. You just selfishly thought that you were sorry for them and that you were guilty, so you knelt on the Yingling Mountain and in front of them to atone for your sins."
"But is your behavior really atonement? You are just easing your own pain, but they have been trapped in the day when the disaster strikes and cannot get out."
"Senior Brother Han, wake up! You are not atonement by doing this, you are just selfishly evading responsibility."
"It's been three years, stand up. You need to give an explanation for the training you received from the Shrine and their relatives on the Heroic Spirit Mountain. What you should do is face all this, instead of hiding behind everyone.
Let them take on responsibilities that they shouldn't have to take on."
Qin Changan spoke very slowly, and would stop to look at Han Momo's reaction after every sentence. He knew that what he said today might be a bit harsh, but for a person who had sealed off his heart for three years,
Ordinary persuasion has no effect at all.
Special methods must be used at special times. He must break the self-blame in Han Momo's heart and make him realize that doing so has no effect except torturing himself.
Even his tone at the end was filled with condemnation, as if Han Momo was kneeling here not to atone for his sins, but to escape from the outside world.
Qin Changan stopped, because at this moment, a black spiritual power was emerging from Han Momo's body, as if a terrifying beast was gradually awakening.
And now the beast's eyes were staring with blood-red eyes, baring its teeth, as if it was about to pounce on him at any moment, and the surrounding atmosphere was also changing.
Qin Changan felt this breath and swallowed. The expression on his face did not change at all, but his heart beat faster unconsciously. However, he still suppressed his fear and spoke again.
"My words may be ugly, but they are the truth. Senior Brother Han, you have not only failed them in the past three years, but you have also failed to live up to the expectations of the entire palace."
"I admire you very much for being able to kneel here for three years to atone for your sins, but I don't think this is what you should do."
"You have already made a wrong choice once, so they are lying here. Are you going to make another mistake this time?"
"I joined the Shrine for only a few days, but because of my reasons, dozens of disciples in the Shrine were captured and taken to the Warhammer Ground. The Gate of Life and Death threatened to execute them in a month."
"The second elder told me to ignore this matter and go to the Holy Palace City to hide. But they were arrested because of me. How could I just stand by and watch? I want to go to the Warhammer Ground. They won't allow it because of my bloodline."
"I came to persuade you because I want you to accompany me. This is also the condition they gave. As long as I can convince you to accompany me, I can go to Warhammer."
"Senior Brother Han, think about what I said, think about what they said to you back then. There are many things you should do, but they definitely do not include continuing to kneel here to atone for your sins."
"Let yourself go and let them go. It's been three years and it's time for them to leave."
Qin Changan did not hide his purpose. A new disciple of his would not come here to persuade him for no reason. The more he tried to conceal something, the less effective it would be, so he simply spoke out.
Han Momo still didn't move, but there was a stream of spiritual power surrounding his body, which at least showed that these words were not completely ineffective on him.
Qin Changan took a deep look at the hunched back, sighed slightly, then turned around and walked out of the square without any hesitation.
But after he walked a certain distance, he stopped because a hoarse whisper suddenly came from behind him. The tone was weak and hoarse. If you didn't listen carefully, you wouldn't be able to hear it at all.
"It's been three years...I can't believe it's been so long..."
