Upon arriving here, the two could find a small wooden cabin located in the center of Black Dragon Pool.
The wooden house looked very ordinary, but it was situated above the Black Dragon Pool, which looked quite strange.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi smiled and said:
“Master, that person is right here. Now, we need your help.”
Yideng: "I wonder what kind of service you need from this humble monk?"
Lin Pingzhi: "It's very simple. We just need to call out that person. As for the rest, leave it to me."
Upon hearing this, Yideng nodded, then immediately circulated his internal energy and said:
“Ying Gu, an old friend has come here. Please come out and see me.”
Upon hearing this, a scream suddenly erupted from inside, followed by a shrill and frantic voice saying:
"It's you! How dare you come looking for me? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi curled his lip and said:
"Heh, you think you can kill Master Yideng? How arrogant!"
As soon as these words were spoken, a figure suddenly flew out from the opposite gate and rushed towards this side at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi sneered, and then a sword flew out.
Instantly, a long sword appeared at the neck of the white-haired woman.
Chapter 638 Shouldn't you be hating yourself?
"Please, don't kill!"
Lin Pingzhi: "Relax, Master, since I said before, I won't kill anyone!"
At that moment, Ying Gu was startled by the sword and stopped for a moment. Then, Lin Pingzhi directly struck her pressure points.
Upon seeing this, Ying Gu, realizing what was happening, immediately began to hurl insults, and the insults she used were extremely vulgar.
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi pursed his lips and said:
"Heh, you woman, you're so unreasonable! No wonder you've become like this! You deserve it!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Gu instantly flew into a rage, her gaze towards Lin Pingzhi seeming as if she wanted to devour him.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi chuckled and said:
"Hehe, what, am I wrong? Tell me, what does this have to do with Master Yideng?"
Why did you try to assassinate Master Yideng, and even blame everything on him?
Upon hearing this, Ying Gu immediately spoke up:
"It's all his fault for not saving my son! If it weren't for him, my son wouldn't have died. It's all because he stood by and watched my son die!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Pingzhi laughed, a laugh filled with sarcasm.
"Hehe, you woman, what you're saying makes no sense!"
You say all of this is because of Master Yideng? Well then, I have a few questions I'd like to ask you.
Since you say that all of this is because of Master Yideng, then what did Master Yideng do?
Yinggu: "He stood by and watched someone die!"
Lin Pingzhi: "Oh... to stand by and watch someone die, hehe, interesting. Is there a problem with that?"
Upon hearing this, Ying Gu paused for a moment, then said, "He just stood by and watched someone die!"
Lin Pingzhi nodded and said, "I know, but what I want to ask is, what does this have to do with your assassination of Master Yideng?"
Is there anything wrong with people standing by and not helping those in distress?
Why would they save you? Just because of you? What is your relationship with Master Yideng? What is the relationship between your son and Master Yideng?
Why would he save you and someone else's son?
Upon hearing this, not only Ying Gu but also Yi Deng were stunned. At that moment, the same question popped into their minds: Yes, why?
At this moment, Lin Pingzhi continued:
“Master Yideng, although I do not practice Buddhism, I do know that Buddhism emphasizes cause and effect.”
And what is your connection to this matter?
Upon hearing this, Yideng opened his mouth, then said:
"I neglected her back then!"
Lin Pingzhi chuckled and shook his head, saying:
"Hehe! No! This is not cause and effect. What does this have to do with cause and effect?"
I don't understand, Master Yideng, and you, why do you both think it's the fault of that Southern Emperor from back then?
Back then, the Southern Emperor loved martial arts and devoted himself to practicing them, so he neglected his concubine from that time.
And isn't this kind of thing a frequent occurrence in this palace?
That emperor didn't have a large number of wives and concubines; even if the number wasn't large, he still had more than a dozen.
But there is only one emperor, so isn't it normal for some of his men to be neglected?
However, even so, I have never seen any of the emperor's concubines have an affair with someone else because of such a thing.
And that wasn't all; after it was discovered, the emperor was incredibly generous and offered the concubine to that person.
Honestly, this emperor has done enough. To put it bluntly, even if he had just executed that concubine on the spot...
The others were speechless; in fact, they might even have to say that His Majesty the Emperor was right.
However, did the emperor do so? No, he wanted to grant the two their wish.
But what did that man do? He just ran away, abandoning everything and fleeing.
They even forgot everything and put everything behind them. What kind of behavior is that?
This emperor has done enough. Do you expect him to bring the people back and grant their wish?
Woman, do you think this emperor hasn't done a good enough job?
Upon hearing this, Ying Gu fell silent, sitting motionless, as if she were caught in a battle between heaven and man.
Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi continued:
"Later, this concubine became pregnant with that man's child, or to put it bluntly, she became pregnant with the child of her lover."
As a result, the emperor did nothing after witnessing this scene.
They were simply housed in a palace, where they were provided with everything they needed, from food and clothing to daily necessities.
To put it bluntly, even an ordinary woman, a farmer, would be upset after learning about such a thing.
What he would do is kill the woman, and then kill the child too. That's the normal thing to do.
However, that emperor had done more than enough.
At this point, Lin Pingzhi turned his gaze to Master Yideng and said:
"Honestly, Master, the fact that you didn't kill them is the death of your greatest mercy!"
This kind of thing, if it happened to an ordinary person, would be something that would infuriate them to the point of murder.
But for an emperor, the extermination of nine generations of his family would be normal.
After all, this involves the dignity of an emperor, and the dignity of an emperor is equivalent to the dignity of a country.
"You've done more than enough."
Upon hearing this, Master Yideng closed his eyes and chanted:
"Amitabha Buddha, excellent! Excellent!"
Lin Pingzhi: "Woman, do you admit it or not? He's done enough, hasn't he?"
After listening, Ying Gu remained silent for a moment, then said:
“I know that what he did at that time was something that no one else could have done, but my son is innocent!”
Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi nodded and said:
"Yes, the child is indeed innocent, but even if he dies, so what?"
What does this have to do with Master Yideng?
That child has no connection with Master Yideng, and you have no connection with Master Yideng either, right?
Even if there is such a thing, it should only be an irreconcilable feud, and Master Yideng has already done enough by letting you live.
As for the later part, that person's palm strike was meant to deplete Master Yideng's internal energy.
This, in turn, ensures the outcome of the competition.
At this point, Lin Pingzhi looked directly at Ying Gu and said:
"I believe that Master Yideng did not do anything wrong in this matter."
What you did back then was absurd enough, and since Master Yideng has let you go, then his choice of martial arts is not wrong.
During that period, Master Yideng did not err in choosing not to treat someone who had no connection to the person who had woken up.
But you, because of this matter, harbor resentment towards Master Yideng.
Do you think you did the right thing?
Shouldn't you hate the murderer who did this?
Shouldn't you hate Zhou Botong for abandoning you?
Shouldn't you hate yourself for doing that kind of thing for your own selfish desires?
You're blaming Master Yideng for all the mistakes. What kind of logic is that?
In my opinion, if you had been killed back then, none of this mess would have happened!
Upon hearing this, Ying Gu sat there, tears streaming down her face.
