Chapter 386 Xia Wei Insists on Her Own Way
Chapter 386 Xia Wei - insisting on having her own way
[Records in the Book of Life and Death:]
[In the autumn of the 639th year of the Moro Calendar, the ghosts of the Golden Wheel Palace gathered together to plot rebellion. Ren Changhong, a special ghost officer, was ordered to suppress the rebellion and quell the chaos, killing more than 20,000 evil ghosts. 】
Xie Xinyu finished writing the record report in the clerk's hall, threw down the judge's pen, put away the remaining pages, and said with her hands on her chin: "The matter is finally over. There has been so much work during this period, and there is no time to soak in the hot spring..."
Thinking of the beauty in the heart-warming and soul-nurturing spring, Xie Xinyu also showed a bit of anticipation.
Outside the clerk's hall, Yam sat on his knees on the ground, with a bit of shock still remaining in his eyes.
Beside her, Jiang also had a serious face. If he hadn't insisted on leaving his sister behind, he would have died at the hands of a special ghost like those ghosts.
"How could this happen..." Yao Yao murmured, the panicked wailing of those ghosts still lingering in his ears.
"I'm going to the Witch Temple to find Elder Wu Jin who saved me back then. Will you go with me?" Jiang asked with a sigh.
Before that, Shan Yao persuaded Jiang Jiang many times, hoping that he would stay in Jinlun Hall and work here. However, after what happened now, she could no longer say what she had said before, and finally changed her words: "...I will tell you Let’s go together.”
In the soul-raising spring, Ye Jie's arms trembled. He took out the seven-sided seamed page, and his expression changed faintly: "It's Xiaowei, she's looking for me."
In the warm pool water, Nan Linghe smiled, and his face was rosy by the warm water vapor: "This soul-nurturing spring is so warm, it is a pity that sister Xia Wei can't come... Is there any way to make sister Xia Wei Come here too?"
Ye Jie thought for a while and replied: "Ordinary people want to enter the underworld, if they don't use magic weapons and artifacts, they have to wait until they become immortals. With Xiaowei's qualifications, it should be fast..."
Thinking of Xia Wei, Ye Jie couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart.
Just when Xia Wei called him, Ye Jie planned to go to the human world to see what happened there.
When he came to the world, the autumn wind blew through Ye Jie's robe, and the withered yellow leaves floated down from his head. He raised his hand and took one of them slowly, feeling carefully that there was a bit of sadness and a bit of sadness in the fallen leaves. The coolness seems to be not far away from the winter solstice on earth.
The sound of heavy footsteps came from behind Ye Jie. Xia Wei stood still behind him. Her body was trembling, her silver teeth were clenched, and her fiery eyes were filled with unyielding anger. The source of the anger was directed towards her. Pointing to Ye Jie in front!
Feeling the evil intent that was sharper than a sharp knife, Ye Jie turned around in shock and saw Xia Wei's extremely angry look. He couldn't help but be confused: "Xiao Wei, what's wrong with you? Why do you look unhappy? ?”
"Master... people are killing each other in order to fight for life and longevity, and the world is in chaos, but it is your hand?" Xia Wei gritted her teeth hard, and there was still a bit of luck in her tone. She wished her master could tell her that what the ghost said earlier was False, these things have nothing to do with Master.
However, Ye Jie's words made Xia Wei's heart sink completely: "If you are talking about the Yangshou trade, it was indeed promoted by me. However, I did not let people kill each other. That is people's own business." choose."
Xia Wei was in agony, mixed with sadness and anger, and her tone was choked with sobs: "Master... why do you do this? Why do you want to plunge the world into despair, why do you want to turn the world into purgatory?"
Ye Jie glanced at her and sighed: "I just wanted to help them, who knew they misinterpreted my meaning."
"Help?" Xia Wei looked in disbelief. "As soon as the Yangshou trade came out, the people of the world were in dire straits and suffered terribly. It was obviously harming them, so how could we help them? What is the master's purpose? He did not hesitate to let the people of the world suffer. Promote Yangshou trade?”
On the side, Li Feimo also noticed the tense situation in the confrontation between the two. The purple butterfly on her shoulder also folded its wings and lay down. She quickly informed the sisters in the underworld and asked them to come quickly.
Ye Jie slowly raised his head and stared into the empty void:
"Do you know? Not everyone can live to the moment of death. The world is so big and vast. People die unexpectedly every moment. Some people die prematurely. Some people are bitten to death by monsters and some are beaten to death by enemies. Some people die from weapons, some die from natural disasters, and those who can live to the end of their lives need chance and luck. "
After a pause, Ye Jie continued: "Among all living beings in the world, the ones I want to help the most are those who are about to starve to death. I hope that the longevity service ghost messenger can find those hungry people and let them use their Yangshou , in exchange for a good meal for myself, this is my purpose of promoting Yangshou trade. "
Xia Wei looked in disbelief and couldn't believe what Ye Jie said: "For the sake of those who are about to starve to death, should the entire continent suffer?"
Ye Jie just replied: "All things are about the balance of yin and yang. One is ebbing and the other is increasing, one is full and the other is empty. When you decide to help a group of people, another group of people will definitely suffer because of it. There is nothing you can do about it."
Xia Wei didn't believe anything she said, and shook her head like a rattle: "I don't believe it, there must be something hidden in it! Just hungry people are not worthy of promoting Yangshou trade and causing chaos in the world. Master, what are you doing all this for?" What?"
"Just hungry people? What you said is that it really doesn't hurt to stand and talk."
Ye Jie's face darkened, with a rare seriousness on his face: "You are the reincarnation of a noble immortal, and you don't understand the feeling of hunger. I don't blame you, but I understand those hungry people, because I starved to death! I hate people who waste food the most. Sometimes I also think, what if I didn't starve to death. Maybe I could live to be sixty or seventy years old, but all this is empty talk. I starved to death at the age of fifteen, even if I was given twenty years. I am willing to live thirty years in exchange for a full meal, but unfortunately, that is just a luxury."
Xia Wei's face trembled: "Master..."
Ye Jie took a deep breath and tried to calm down. The dragon's energy came out of his body and announced to the whole world: "Now that I have become the Lord of Yama Hall, I can finally fulfill my lifelong wish! As long as those hungry people still have one hour left in their bodies." If you have a long life, you can exchange it for a full meal with the Shou Wu ghost messenger. From now on, no one in the world will starve to death, but will die at the end of his life. Years ago, 'hunger' killed me, and to this day. , I defeated 'hunger'!"
At this time, everyone who came after hearing the news also heard what Ye Jie said, and they all fell into deep thought.
Xie Xinyu said with emotion: "It turns out that Brother Jie insists on promoting Yangshou trade not just to do business with Yin merchants, but because he has such a long-cherished wish..."
Hua Xiaomei looked at Ye Jie, with some touching tears in her eyes: "Every ghost will remember it deep in his memory, and what he cannot forget no matter what, is his own death. No matter how many years have passed, he can't let it go. No wonder he is so insistent on the Yangshou trade..."
Ren Changhong pursed her thin lips and looked at Ye Jie with a little pity in her eyes: "I didn't expect that A Jie would be burdened with such a heavy long-cherished wish. After the matter is over, I have to comfort him." ”
"Master, but..."
After knowing this hidden secret, Xia Wei's voice choked up, but she still refused to give in: "Isn't it both death to die of hunger and to die for a few full meals and spend a long life? What's the difference?"
"I think... there is still a difference." Ye Jie said firmly, "It is better to go on the road after eating well than to die on an empty stomach."
"Just by doing this, you still haven't been able to help the hungry people out of their predicament!" Xia Wei argued rationally, "If you want to help the hungry people, you can use another method. You can directly ask the ghost messengers to deliver food to them. You don't need their lives. Just giving them food is not enough. You have to find a way for them to survive. You have to guide them, lead them, and find a way forward for them. How can a full meal be enough? Problem to solve?”
At the end of the sentence, Xia Wei raised her eyebrows and roared in a high voice, her words full of dissatisfaction: "You didn't help those hungry people at all, you just pushed them from one fire pit to another! Not only that, you also It has caused more people to suffer in the world!”
Ye Jie put his hand on his forehead and felt a headache: "Of course I understand what you said, but it's just not what I can do. If anything needs to be done by the Lord of Yama, then it needs a human king in the world and an immortal in the sky. What to do? Guide people, lead people. , to save the hungry people and eliminate the war, that is what they should do! You should ask, where are those noble kings and those upright immortals? All I can do is to let the hungry people die! Just have a good meal beforehand!”
"You are the Lord of Yama Hall, and you can definitely do more than this! Master, have you forgotten what you said? With great power comes greater responsibility, but what have you done now? Abolish the Yangshou trade!"
The cold air waves blew Ye Jie's robes loudly, and the only thing that came from the wind was Xia Wei's angry questioning.

Under Xia Wei's questioning, Ye Jie was speechless, and finally turned his head, not daring to look directly into her fiery gaze, and sighed:
"Do you think that without Yangshou trade, conflicts and oppression between people will be reduced, and no one will starve to death in this world? It's not like I let people cannibalize each other, that is people's own nature. The world is stupid and blind , for the head It's a life-and-death fight for small profits. I just unlocked a few administrative options, and they started killing each other. How could it be my fault? If everyone in the world stayed clean, stayed true to their hearts, and were not swayed by temptation, how could this world happen? chaos?"
At the end of the sentence, Ye Jie narrowed his eyes, and Xia Wei's thin body was reflected in his pupils: "You said I made the world turn into purgatory? I don't have that much ability. This world is already a purgatory. I can't change them, You can't change them!"
Xia Wei realized what Ye Jie said, her body trembled, but she still insisted: "There will always be a way!"
"There will be no solution." Ye Jie retorted, "If the immortals can't solve the problem, what can you do? If you still have the unparalleled cultivation in the three realms in your previous life, overwhelming all the immortals, maybe there is a solution. , but now, you can’t save this world.”
"I will!" Xia Wei roared, a roar that echoed throughout the sky, "I will save them! I will save them all!"
Ye Jie was silent, but when he saw a flash of cold light in front of him, Xia Wei raised the eighth-grade Qingfeng sword in her hand, pointing the righteous sword tip directly at Ye Jie.
"Master... Yangshou trade has caused turmoil in the world, displaced all sentient beings, and caused unspeakable suffering. All of this happened because of you. It's not too late to turn back now. I implore you to take back your life and abolish Yangshou trade, otherwise..."
Xia Wei's voice was choked with sobs, mixed with some unspeakable pain.
On one side, there was her master who she was devotedly attached to and shared life and death with, and on the other side, there was justice that she always abided by, and a heart that would never bend. When the two conflicted, Xia Wei's heart was in unbearable pain, which almost made her unable to breathe. She had to do something Make the most painful decision.
"What else?"
Ye Jie looked in disbelief: "Why do you do this to me? Am I not your family member? Why do you point a sword at your family member?"
"Master, you gave me no choice! For the sake of the righteousness of the world and the sake of the common people, please take back your life and abolish the Yangshou trade!" Xia Wei had tears in her eyes, but her tone increased and she would not give in.
Ye Jie stood with his hands behind his back, showing no intention of fighting with Xia Wei. Even if he was pointed at by a sword, he would not be moved:
"Xiaowei, the so-called justice and the so-called ideals are all false and false. The only ones that are true and true are your partners and your family. The so-called family must tolerate each other. For the sake of your family, you will never abandon others. What’s wrong with the world? I understand that you are angry, but can’t you tolerate me this time and pretend to turn a blind eye?”
Beside Ye Jie, others saw that the situation was not good, and they also tried to persuade Xia Wei.
Hua Xiaomei advised: "Sister Xia Wei, this matter is not entirely Brother Jie's idea. We all voted to agree. Don't blame him. If you want to blame, blame all of us."
Xie Xinyu also reminded: "Sister Mei is right. Besides, those who suffer are all people from Dongsheng Shenzhou. You, like us, were born in Nanzhanbuzhou, and the people here are not your same race. Fellow townspeople, what do you care about them?”
Li Feimo blinked. Hearing the argument between Xia Wei and Ye Jie, he didn't know which side to take. He had to look for help at Shen Qingge beside him, but he heard his master say: "This is The internal affairs of Yama Palace should be decided by the palace master, and no one else needs to interfere. "
Ren Changhong also advised: "Xiaowei, your knowledge and experience are not as good as everyone else's, so just leave this matter to us and leave it alone."
Everyone's repeated persuasion could not change Xia Wei's paranoid heart. Once she identified something, even nine cows could not pull her back. She was as tender as iron and insisted on going her own way:
"Maybe my knowledge is not as good as everyone else's, but I know what is right and what is wrong! Master, what you did is wrong. If you don't take back your life, for the sake of peace in the world and for the common people not to be poisoned, I have no choice. I can only eradicate you with my own hands!"
Ye Jie's pupils shrank and he froze on the spot. Xia Wei's words made him feel a twinge of pain in his heart. He never imagined that his apprentice, who he had taught himself and had shared life and death with, would actually fight for the so-called justice. break.
