Chapter 30 (Two in One)
Xie Shuci made a serious face.
"Is this much blood or a minor injury?"
Xie Shuci's tone was reproachful, he grabbed Xie An's wrist, and pulled it in front of him forcefully.
Xie An tugged back, didn't do much, and finally compromised, spreading his palm in front of Xie Shuci.
There was a wound in the palm of his hand that was opened by something, and the blood flowed out, dripping down the ground along his wrist, Xie Shuci's heart throbbed when he saw it.
"Are you stupid? Why didn't you tell me earlier? What if you get infected?" Xie Shuci frowned distressedly and scolded.
Although cultivators have a strong body and better healing ability than ordinary people, but the little blind man has no spiritual power in his body, so it will be difficult to deal with wound infection.
Deng Fengming was sitting not far from the two of them. He was always vigilant towards Xie An, and his attention was always on him. He vaguely heard the conversation between the two, and Deng Fengming couldn't help looking over there. glance.
Who is Xiao Xun? A young monster with profound cultivation, dark and distorted mind, and volatile emotions to kill and prove the way, not to mention anyone who dares to offend him, even if he takes a second look, he can kill him to prove the way ! How dare a mere Pill Cultivator talk to him like that?
He clasped the long sword at his waist, thinking that if Xiao Xun was going to kill someone, he would have to find a way to save the Pill Cultivator. It's not how kind-hearted he is, but the origin of this Pill Cultivator is unknown, and he is definitely not an ordinary monk with the top-grade elixir on his body. Maybe it is a disciple of a Pill Cultivator family in Futu who went out to practice. If he is rescued from Xiao Xun He can just take the opportunity to kill Xiao Xun, and he can also accept a favor for Free & Unfettered Sect, the best of both worlds.
When he was waiting for Xiao Xun to attack, the latter lowered his head slightly, with a meek and calm appearance, his lips opened and closed, as if he had said something.
When the Pill Cultivator beside him heard this, he immediately frowned: "Nonsense! Is this still a minor injury?"
Xie Shuci glared at him, and wanted to flip the healing pill from his arms, but Xie An stopped him.
"Healing pills are not needed." Xie An lowered his eyes and glanced at Helian Jue's injured ankle, "Spiritual power is enough."
Xie Shuci breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Xie An's wound seriously, as if he was dealing with some big problem, he gently gathered the spiritual power in his palm and covered the wound, he moved very carefully, for fear that if he was not careful, he would make a wound. It hurts the little blind man.
"Does it hurt?" Xie Shuci asked with a frown.
Xie An pursed his lips, and the gentle spiritual power at the wound was entangled into his wound bit by bit, absorbing his flesh and blood. That trace of strange temperature made his body tremble unconsciously, and there was even a kind of Illusion, Xie Shuci bound his body with spiritual power, giving him an indescribable and suffocating feeling.
He suddenly felt that he had indulged Xie Shuci too much.
If it was in the past, whoever dared to approach him with spiritual power without authorization, he would definitely let the other party taste the pain.
But now, he even hoped that this spiritual power would penetrate a little deeper.
Xie An was silent for a moment, then shook his head.
Deng Fengming noticed this scene, even though he found it unbelievable, his eyes could not help turning around on Xie Shuci.
After a short break, the others discussed countermeasures.
Chu Guiyi and the two came in front of them, first glanced at Xie An, and asked, "Is he alright?"
Xie Shuci said: "I was injured a little, so there shouldn't be any problem."
"That's good." Chu Guiyi nodded.
Chu Wenfeng sat down next to Xie Shuci, glanced at He Lianzhu who was alone in the corner, sniffed, and said, "Idiot, it's easy to be controlled by others."
He Lianzhu froze and lowered his head even lower.
Because of his talent, the Helian family treats him like a star, and he has long been used to the feeling of superiority, and he doesn't look down on anyone. But how could he have thought that his own cultivation was obtained by forcibly robbing other people's fate, he was just a tool for the Patriarch to enter the Buddha Realm, a tool that could be discarded at will, and what awaited him in the future was forever perish in this world.
He is stupid! How is he not stupid!
When he was a child, the Eldest Brother was clearly the existence he looked up to. He was just the most common outer disciple among the Helian family disciples, and he didn't even have the qualifications to enter the inner sect. When the elder brother appeared by chance, he would follow behind him like other disciples, hoping that he would look at him more.
But his aptitude is so ordinary, maybe he can't enter the inner sect after practicing for a lifetime.
Just like that, one day, the Patriarch sent someone to re-evaluate their qualifications. When everyone came to the main hall where inner disciples could only enter, the senior brother competed outside the hall with a casual cultivator girl surnamed Lu.
"Helian Jue, if you beat me, I will stay for you."
Miss Lu and her elder brother met when they were training abroad, and later they returned to Luofang City together, but Miss Lu naturally likes freedom, no matter where she is, she only stays for a short time. Her cultivation level is as advanced as that of the elder brother.
At that time, He Lianzhu felt that this woman was not worthy of the elder brother.
Helian Jue is tall and straight, like a green pine, holding a Poyun gun in his hand, with a chic and unrestrained expression, "If you beat me, I will leave with you, okay?"
Miss Lu was stunned for a moment, and was speechless for a while.
"You...are you willing to leave with me? Become a casual cultivator?"
"Why not."
He Lianzhu was also stunned. The elder brother he admired doesn't want to be a fairy? He wants to leave the fairy gate with a woman?
"Eldest brother... You, you don't want us anymore?" He Lianzhu timidly stepped forward, looking at him with red eyes.
The two looked at him at the same time.
Helian Jue in his teenage years was enough to be described as magnificent. He turned around and saw that he was a young disciple from the outer sect, so he greeted Miss Lu and walked towards him holding the Poyun Spear.
He half squatted in front of He Lianzhu, rubbed the top of his head with his big hands, and explained to him seriously: "Eldest brother will not want you, no matter who I am or where I am, I will always be a disciple of the Helian family. There are infinite possibilities in your life, and you don’t have to stick to one point.”
He Lianzhu said tearfully, "What would the Helian family do without you?"
The elder brother wiped away his tears with his warm palm, and said with a smile: "Helian's family doesn't have me, but you."
That short sentence had a huge impact on He Lianzhu's heart.
In that competition, the elder brother finally lost.
He is willing to admit defeat, and decides to leave Helian's family after participating in the Xianmen general election, and become a casual cultivator, wandering the world with Miss Lu.
Perhaps the eldest brother also likes freedom, that's why he likes the free girl Lu.
But not long after the general election of Xianmen, He Lianzhu's second qualification calculation result came out - no one in ten thousand.
Later, don't know what happened, the senior brother sealed the Poyun Spear, and finally stayed, and Miss Lu also stayed in Luofang City with him.
Everyone said that the elder brother was jealous of his qualifications and was hit.
How can a person as handsome as the elder brother stick to his talent and aptitude?
But after listening to it for a long time, He Lianzhu actually believed it.
He began to despise the elder brother, began to look down on him, and even hoped that he would be expelled from the sect, so that the position of chief disciple would be his own...
He is stupid and doesn't know it...
So stupid, so presumptuous!
He buried his head in his chest, tears of regret wet the clothes on his chest.
Seeing that he was not in the right mood, Xie Shuci turned Chu Wenfeng with his hand, and signaled him not to talk too much with his eyes.
Xie Shuci now only feels that he is pitiful, he has been used by others all his life, and he is still kept in the dark.
"What are you doing? Did I say something wrong? Isn't he very arrogant? He looks down on others because he thinks he has good qualifications." Chu Wenfeng turned his head and glared at him.
He glanced at Chu Guiyi who was sitting on the wheelchair not far away, and his voice gradually weakened, "What's aptitude? What's the point of not having aptitude?"
Chu Guiyi glanced at him, "Wenfeng, stop talking."
Chu Wenfeng clenched his teeth and turned his head to the side.
Due to several cracks in the ground, it was inconvenient for the wheelchair to continue approaching, so Chu Guiyi stood up with difficulty while supporting the handrails with both hands. It wasn't that his legs were unconscious, it was just that he didn't put much effort into them.
Having been with Chu Guiyi for so many days, Xie Shuci knew that he was a very proud person like the little blind man in his bones, so he didn't step forward to help him, but when he walked this way step by step, he couldn't help thinking sweated for him.
Chu Wenfeng only took one look, then quickly lowered his head.
Helian Jue stared at him in a daze, his eyes became much more complicated.
"I'm laughing." Chu Guiyi said with a warm smile.
His temperament is too outstanding, even if he walks hard and slowly, he doesn't make people feel embarrassed.
Xie Shuci couldn't help sighing in his heart, if Chu Guiyi's legs had no problems, what a wonderful scene it would be.
Although Helian Jue was seriously injured, he had taken the soul-returning pill, and the wound on his leg was healed by Xie Shuci's spiritual power, so his body has recovered a lot of strength.
Perhaps it was because they remembered that when they met Chu Guiyi, both of them were youthful and reckless, but they never expected to see each other many years later, and they would never regain their previous appearance.
Helian Jue smiled wryly: "Guyi, the truth is unpredictable."
Chu Guiyi smiled calmly, "It's just fate."
"Thank you for speaking up for Xiao Zhu."
Chu Guiyi's expression was much more complicated, "Ajue, you shouldn't have kept it from me."
Helian Jue laughed, "This is Helian's own business, why did you get involved. What's more, even if I tell you, you won't be able to stop the Patriarch, but will harm Xiao Zhu instead."
"Eldest brother, have I killed many people?" He Lianzhu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.
Helian Jue paused for a long time without speaking.
He Lianzhu's voice was hoarse, "Anyone."
Helian Jue took a deep breath and said, "Do you still remember how long it's been since you saw that group of outer disciples who are about your age."
He Lianzhu's whole body was shocked, and Xie Shuci and others also opened their eyes wide in disbelief.
Xie An was on the left of Xie Shuci, and Chu Wenfeng was on the right. He nestled between the two of them, touching Xie An's shoulder, feeling his scalp tingling.
Xie An was silent, and gently turned his body to let him lean on half of his shoulder.
The matter has come to this point, and there is no point in hiding it any longer.
Helian Jue sighed deeply, and said: "Those forty-seven outer disciples who were similar to your age died twelve years ago. There was a little girl among them. I promised to bring her a bunch of candied haws, but When I came back, I searched the entire Luofang City, but there was no trace of her. Finally, I found out that, except for you, all the other disciples from the outer sect disappeared mysteriously. After I confronted the Patriarch, I found out the truth of the matter. "
He Lianzhu's breathing became rapid, his hands and feet were cold, his pupils were dilated, his face was pale, and the spiritual power in his body was about to move.
Several other people gasped at the same time.
Helian Jue continued: "At that time, you were young, and the method of consolidating the soul and locking luck was always too difficult for you. It would inevitably be risky to use it on outsiders, but it would be very effective if it was used on the same family who are connected by blood. After this incident, the head of the family promised me that he would not let you kill innocent people indiscriminately, and I knew that you were innocent, so I kept silent and kept secretly looking for a way to break the soul-fixing lock formation."
How ridiculous, let him no longer kill innocent people indiscriminately, but let him kill forty-seven of his fellow disciples without knowing it! How old were they? Same age as He Lianzhu at that time, seven years old!
"Beast! This kind of talent should be completely destroyed!" Xie Shuci said angrily, and he wished that a thunder would fall from the sky and directly kill that Patriarch Helian!
Even if Tiger Poison does not eat children, he actually let a seven-year-old child's hands be stained with the blood of the same family? ! It's just too damn good!
Chu Wenfeng didn't expect this person to be so vicious, so he gritted his teeth and said, "He is also worthy to be the head of the family? In order to enter the Buddha Realm, murdering one's own disciples is what should be tolerated by heaven and earth!"
Chu Guiyi sighed: "It's a pity that although the matter started because of him, it has never been handled by him. All these consequences must be borne by Mr. Helian alone."
After hearing this, He Lianzhu stared blankly at his hands, as if at a certain moment, he saw that his wound was covered with blood, the viscous liquid, with some warmth, wrapped around his fingers, Between the fingers.
Xie Shuci sighed: "Senior brother, have you found a way to crack it?"
Helian never cared about his title, and shook his head sadly, "The final result of using the body as an array must be sacrificed with the body. This is a link in the law of heaven and earth, and no one can change it."
Xie Shuci looked at He Lianzhu's devastated appearance, and couldn't bear it in his heart, "Even so, is there no way to reincarnate him?"
It is too unacceptable for a living person to be rejected by this world forever after death, exist outside of reincarnation, and disappear forever and ever.
Even in the modern world where Xie Shuci lives, at least one skeleton will be left after death, and all the tokens of his life, at least there are some traces of their existence.
Xie Shuci couldn't imagine such a cruel erasure of a person's existence.
Everyone fell silent, and Chu Guiyi was the first to speak: "There is no way. As long as you are still alive, you cannot escape the rules."
"What are the conditions for being rejected by the law of heaven and earth? It's not He Lianzhu's fault at all!" Xie Shuci said angrily.
Chu Guiyi's expression also darkened, "Shuci, the way of heaven is different from human beings, it only recognizes the result, regardless of cause and effect."
Helian Jue said: "It seems that since ancient times, there is only one type of people who have been clearly expelled by the law, and that is Dacheng's killing Taoist monks. They live by killing and become Taoists by killing. They are incomplete in nature and impoverished in emotion. One day, there will be ninety-nine and eighty-one thunderstorms from the sky, until they are smashed to ashes and wiped out."
Xie Shuci's pupils trembled after hearing Xie An's words, Xie An beside him lowered his head slightly, and the corner of his mouth raised a specious arc.
"So, Xiao Xun will also be struck to death by lightning in the future?" Xie Shuci said incredulously.
how is this possible? How could Xiao Xun have such a result?
"If he cultivates the Dao of Slaughter, he will definitely be hit by five thunderbolts and die." Chu Guiyi said.
Xie Shuci was stunned, "It's clear that in the end, both body and soul will be destroyed, why do you want to practice the way of killing?"
Chu Wenfeng pouted and said: "This kind of person is murderous, and it is impossible to speculate with normal people's thinking."
Chu Guiyi said: "Maybe there is no reason. For people like Xiao Xun, this life is the only life they live. They don't care about life and death. They only do things to please their own ambitions."
"But, what's the point?" Xie Shuci asked suspiciously.
He really couldn't understand Xiao Xun's thinking.
When he read the original book, he discovered that the protagonist's three views and his own worldview are completely different from his own. He could not approve of many of Xiao Xun's behaviors, and sometimes he could feel that the author tried to change Xiao Xun's character and motivation after hearing many criticisms, but she failed.
The character Xiao Xun has come alive from her pen. He has an independent thinking system and survival system, and his every move is no longer under control. This is actually a very scary thing.
Hearing Xie Shuci's question, Xie An paused.
The five fingers of his right hand curled up into the palm of his hand, and his fingertips stroked the wound that hadn't fully healed, and the expression between his brows was a little dark.
"Young Master Chu, we can't drag it on any longer." While they were talking, Ye Changxuan walked over.
Her face was a little pale, and her figure was as weak as a willow supporting the wind, appearing very thin and fragile.
"We are trapped here, even if we are not killed by He Lianzhu, we will die due to the exhaustion of spiritual power. The Fu Long magic weapon absorbs spiritual power too quickly." Ye Changxuan frowned, with a painful expression on his face.
Their Joyous Union Sect relies most on spiritual power, and their bodies are not as strong as other monks.
It was only then that Xie Shuci realized that the disciples of the other immortal sects had ugly faces, as if they had lost too much blood. But looking at the few people around him, not to mention that the little blind man has no spiritual power in his body, the faces of the others who have spiritual power in their bodies don't change their faces, and there is nothing unusual about them.
Ye Changxuan obviously noticed this too, she stared blankly at them, and asked suspiciously, "Do you have any discomfort?"
Chu Guiyi was stunned. After he became mad, the golden core could not gather his spiritual power. He first looked at Helian Jue, then at Xie Shuci and Chu Wenfeng.
Xie Shuci shrugged and said, "I'm not feeling sick, and I feel better and better."
Chu Wenfeng looked puzzled, "Me neither."
Helian Jue also shook his head.
Chu Wenfeng reacted, he bumped Xie Shuci's shoulder and said, "You treated Helian Jue and Xie An, how could you not feel anything at all?"
Xie Shuci said innocently: "But I really don't feel uncomfortable."
Xie Anhao leaned against the wall leisurely, with a look of indifference to other things, and his fingers slid over Xie Shuci's saber bag.
Xie Shuci thought that something in his saber had fallen into him, so he put the little saber into his arms.
Several other people looked at each other, and then turned their attention to Xie Shuci.
Xie Shuci saw that they had weird expressions, as if possessed by an evil spirit, he clutched the saber in his bosom, and shrank a little towards Xie An like a tortoise.
"What are you and you guys doing? If you have something to say, you can discuss everything..." Xie Shuci leaned his back on Xie An, and the latter opened his arms helplessly, letting him lean in.
With his back against the warm chest of the little blind man, Xie Shuci calmed down a little.
That fellow Chu Wenfeng intentionally frightened him, raised the corners of his mouth sullenly, and said in a low voice, "Since we have reached this point, whether we can get out alive is a problem, why don't we simply kill and get more money..."
Ye Changxuan followed with a meaningful smile, "Xiao Daoist, hand over the things quickly..."
Xie Shuci regardless of the consequences, quickly took off the small sass and offered it with both hands, "Beautiful fairy sister, I will give you all the treasures, please let us go."
"Pfft——" Ye Changxuan didn't know that he was so unintimidated, and his mouth was so sweet, she couldn't hold back immediately, and smiled lowly while leaning on her waist, "You are so cute. If the situation didn't allow it, I would really think……"
Xie An's eyebrows turned cold, he directly grabbed the saber from Xie Shuci's hand, and threw it to Chu Wenfeng.
Xie Shuci reacted quickly and shook his head, and said to her: "No! You don't want to!"
Seeing this, Chu Guiyi couldn't help laughing, and explained: "Don't worry, Wenfeng is mischievous, and I'm joking with you. However, you have spent so much spiritual power healing them, and you are still under the crouching dragon formation, and your body is still full of spiritual power. Something strange."
Chu Wenfeng proudly raised his eyebrows at Xie Shuci, who was so angry that Xie Shuci's teeth itch.
Chu Wenfeng opened the small saber, and a faint cyan halo appeared in the sight of several people.
Chu Wenfeng glanced at them, then carefully took out the bronze medicinal cauldron from his pouch.
The medicine cauldron was only the size of a palm, and it was covered with a cyan luster, and a steady stream of spiritual power spread outward from the bronze vessel.
After Helian made a decision, he suddenly realized: "The bronze medicinal cauldron first appeared in the Buddha's territory."
Chu Guiyi instantly understood what he meant, "It's the same as Fu Long's magic weapon, and it comes from a secret realm full of spiritual power."
Ye Changxuan was overjoyed, "The bronze medicinal cauldron can refine anything, and you can use it to temper the magic weapon of Fu Long!"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone turned their gazes to Xie Shuci again.
Xie Shuci looked at the faint excitement in their eyes, scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, blushed and muttered in a low voice: "I, I won't."
"You can't?! Then why are you carrying the bronze tripod on your back all day?!" Chu Wenfeng said angrily.
Xie Shuci pushed him away, "Don't you know that I can't!"
"I..." Chu Wenfeng was stunned for a moment, remembering that he seemed to know it, he looked a little embarrassed, and then said: "I didn't know you were so useless."
Chu Guiyi gave him a reproachful look, "Wenfeng, don't talk nonsense."
Xie Shuci lowered his head in frustration, this wave of embarrassment was great, especially in front of his beautiful sister, Xie Xiaoci's young heart was traumatized, like an ostrich, he buried his face in Xie An's shoulder.
Xie An lowered his eyes, his expression darkened under the reflection of the dim light.
Chu Wenfeng picked up the bronze tripod and looked at it, and covered the tripod with one hand, and when he was about to push it with spiritual power, Chu Guiyi stopped it.
"Don't mess around." Chu Guiyi said seriously.
Ye Changxuan said: "The bronze medicine cauldron is no better than other magic tools, if you use it rashly, you may be backlashed."
Chu Wenfeng frowned, "Then what should we do?"
At this moment, He Lianzhu, who had been silently digesting his emotions in the corner, said, "I'll come."
He stood up from the corner, probably because he had been hit too hard, and he looked colorless and haggard, but his eyes became darker, as if he had changed.
Chu Wenfeng hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chu Guiyi and the others.
Chu Guiyi couldn't make up his mind for a while. As far as the current situation is concerned, He Lianzhu is the most suitable candidate, but when he opens the spiritual vein, it is very likely that Patriarch Helian will control him again. He is not sure whether he should take this risk.
Helian Jue was also a little hesitant.
He Lianzhu seemed to know the doubts in their hearts, and walked up to Chu Wenfeng, took the bronze medicine cauldron in his hand, and said to everyone: "Don't worry, I don't need to open the spiritual vein."
Hearing this, everyone agreed.
He Lianzhu took out a magic weapon from his bosom, twisted a black pointer above it, and only heard a "click", and a ray of black spiritual power emerged from the magic weapon.
The black spiritual energy approached the bronze medicine cauldron, but at the moment when it was about to be absorbed, it was driven away by a burst of cyan light emitted by the bronze cauldron.
"No, the bronze tripod has been sealed." Chu Guiyi said solemnly.
"seal?"
Everyone was taken aback, and looked at Xie Shuci in unison.
Xie Shuci was still leaning against Xie An, and suddenly felt the surroundings quiet down. He raised his head in confusion, wanting to look back to see what happened.
But Xie An's palm rested on the back of his head, preventing him from turning around.
From everyone's point of view, the young man firmly held Xie Shuci in his arms in an extremely domineering posture, like a wild beast enclosure, safely isolating him from other people.
"Xie An?" Xie Shuci murmured puzzled.
Chu Guiyi was the first to react, shaking his head and said: "No, the spiritual power of Shuci is not proficient enough, and it is more likely to be backlashed than others."
The oppressive feeling Xie An radiated to his surroundings disappeared, and the hand resting on the back of Xie Shuci's head also began to move downward.
Slowly wandering on Xie Shuci's vest, patted comfortingly.
