Chapter 15

Views:

It's really outrageous that things have developed to this point.

The Jiao Yao was known for playing tricks on people's hearts, so Qi Shu didn't believe his words that much. let alone in a cave

At that time, in such a life-and-death situation, it was the most reasonable method for the other party to lie to disturb his mind and take the opportunity to escape.

... If his master hadn't run away because of a guilty conscience.

What is the difference between attitude and acquiescence

Qi Shu was helpless.

Judging from Jiao Yao's words and Master's attitude, what happened that night must be between him and Master. But what happened, the master even sealed his memory even at the expense of driving him down the mountain the next day.

It can't be that he continues to drink and give people to...

Qi Shu glanced at the master who was walking ahead, who was almost out of sight. He was so frightened by his guess that his legs went limp, and he almost tripped over a gravel on the side of the road.

"Be careful!" Lu Chengyuan hurriedly supported him, "You can fall while walking on a flat bottom, are you injured?"

"No..." Qi Shu shook off his hand, "Go to your side."

Most of the few women who are still alive have just been taken away and have not yet been drained of essence. Gu Hanjiang gave them a simple diagnosis and treatment. Although they were frightened, they were not seriously injured, and they were able to support each other down the mountain.

As for the dead ones, after Lu Chengyuan helped them collect the corpses, he cast a spell to make them float behind them.

"I'm worried that you can't make it..." Lu Chengyuan muttered, then turned around to help the women.

Qi Shu thought for a while, then tilted his head: "Hey, I want to ask you something."

Lu Chengyuan didn't want to talk to him: "Say."

Qi Shu looked in front of his eyes and saw that the master had gone far, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Did the master pass the test after I went down the mountain?"

"Of course not." Lu Chengyuan said, "Immortal Ling Xiao will not come out of seclusion for five years, don't you know?"

"Then..." Qi Shu weighed his words and asked cryptically, "Is he feeling unwell, and has he invited the master or a medical immortal to visit him?"

Lu Chengyuan gave him a look of "Are you sick?"

"Immortal Lingxiao has long been out of the mortal womb, and he can recuperate on his own even if he has occasional physical discomfort. What's more, what serious injuries can be closed in retreat, so how can we need a medical fairy?" Lu Chengyuan said, "Did that monster tell you What? I've heard that this monster is the most deceptive, so don't believe anything."

"No, just go about your business."

He was too lazy to talk to Lu Chengyuan any more, so he shook him off after a while.

After tossing and going back and forth in Wuying Mountain, when we reached the foot of the mountain, it was almost dawn.

As soon as the group appeared at the end of the mountain road, a group of government servants surrounded them.

Lu Chengyuan had contacted people from the government before he set off, but the situation in Wuying Mountain was complicated, and the officials sent by the prefect only waited in the market town and did not enter the mountain.

Lu Chengyuan was in charge of informing the government of the ins and outs of the matter, Qi Shu listened absent-mindedly, and couldn't help but glance at Gu Hanjiang who was standing beside him several times from the corner of his eye.

He was really curious about what happened that night, but on the way down the mountain, he didn't even touch a piece of his master's clothes. Now that he finally got close, there were a lot of people in the way around him.

I can't even ask.

He was distracted and didn't pay attention to what everyone was saying, until he was poked by Lu Chengyuan: "It's time to go, why are you in a daze."

Qi Shu suddenly came back to his senses: "Go? Where are you going?"

"Go to Lingyang City." Lu Chengyuan looked him up and down, "You won't be caught by that monster's sorcery, right? Why have you been absent-minded all morning?"

"What nonsense, the beast is dead, and any sorcery should be ineffective."

"That's right." Lu Chengyuan nodded suspiciously, "Let's go, the magistrate invited us to Lingyang City for a gathering, and said he would reward us."

"This..." Qi Shu frowned and swept around, feeling that everyone present was an eyesore and resisted a little, "It's our duty to go down the mountain to eliminate demons, why should we reward... right, Master?"

Qi Shu now just wants to drive away those people who are in the way, and find a chance to be alone, so that he can have a chat with his master.

His master doesn't like many people, especially he doesn't want to deal with people from the government, so he definitely won't agree—

"The magistrate is also kind." Gu Hanjiang said calmly.

That's what it means to go.

The yamen servant naturally knew the status of Ling Xiao Xianzun, and when he heard Xianzun speak, he immediately took advantage of the situation and warmly welcomed them into the carriage.

And Gu Hanjiang didn't refuse, and walked up without thinking.

Qi Shu: "..."

This is to avoid him on purpose, right

It was more than an hour's journey from the market town to the city. The carriage sent by the magistrate was luxurious and comfortable. The three of them sat in the carriage and walked most of the way without speaking.

Lu Chengyuan looked at Immortal Ling Xiao on the opposite side, and then at Qi Shu beside him. He was really uncomfortable, so he sent a voice transmission to Qi Shu with his spiritual sense: "Say something, I beg you."

Qi Shu propped one hand on the window, looking at the mountains outside the window, without turning his head: "What's the matter?"

"Don't you think you're panicking?" Lu Chengyuan didn't show it on his face, but his tone in the sound transmission was broken, "You usually get along with Ling Xiao Xianzun like this?"

Qi Shu quietly glanced at his master from the corner of his eye.

Immortal Ling Xiao sat in the car, closed his eyes and meditated since getting in the car, as if strangers should not enter.

If it had been left as usual, Qi Shu would probably pick a topic to pester his master.

But today...

He really didn't know what to say to Master.

If he really did something stupid that day, he doesn't know how to face Master in the future.

Qi Shu looked out of the window again, and heaved a long sigh.

So difficult.

It's hard to chase people.

Those folk tales are all fake, right

Lu Chengyuan didn't know what Qi Shu was worrying about, and he was still chattering: "What are you sighing, can you talk to me, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have been taught to be like a boring gourd."

"..."

Qi Shu turned his head and looked at him silently.

Lu Chengyuan: "What, what's wrong?"

Qi Shu said calmly: "With Master's cultivation, we can hear the sound transmission of our spiritual consciousness. You are too noisy, shut up."

Lu Chengyuan: "..."

Before noon, the group finally arrived at Lingyang City.

The magistrate had obviously spread the news about Qi Shu and his party's success in killing the evil spirits in advance. When the carriage entered the city, it was welcomed by the people.

In front of the government yamen, hundreds of people have already surrounded it.

The magistrate came out to greet them in person, and beamed and said a few words to the onlookers, most of them were the disciples of the Kunlun Sword Sect who had made great achievements in eliminating demons, and then boasted a few words about the decisive decision of the government, which successfully rescued the people.

The words made the people cheer and their blood boiled.

Aside from the bustle, but no one cared, several yamen servants carried the corpse covered in white cloth into the side entrance of the government yamen.

Qi Shu noticed and quietly followed.

As soon as he stepped through the door, he heard some low sobbing.

In the yard, more than a dozen corpses covered in white cloth were laid out one by one. The rescued woman was also here, embracing her parents and weeping with joy. The rest of the families who haven't found their daughter support each other and lift the white cloth one by one to identify them.

It seemed out of place with the festive enthusiasm outside.

Suddenly there was an exclamation in the courtyard, a woman was so sad that she fainted on the spot.

Qi Shu hurried forward.

He knelt down on one knee, condensed a little spiritual power, and entered through the woman's vest. A female corpse stopped beside the woman. Qi Shu glanced at it, but stopped.

It happened to be the girl he met in the woods that day.

After a while, the woman groaned and finally woke up slowly.

"The Sri Lankan has passed away, please take care of your health, and let your condolences pass." Qi Shu comforted.

The woman was stunned for a moment before she saw his clothes clearly: "You... are you the fairy head invited by the magistrate?"

Qi Shu responded in a low voice: "It's sort of."

Someone beside him came to help the woman up, and the latter was much calmer than before. She wiped the tears from her face, and saluted Qi Shu: "Thank you, Immortal Elder."

"You don't need to thank me." Qi Shu closed his eyes, "I'm sorry I didn't save Ling Ai."

In the final analysis, the turmoil this time was due to his failure to eliminate the demon back then, so that the dragon monster had an opportunity to take advantage of it.

If only he had been more careful then...

But the woman shook her head: "If it weren't for the immortal elder to come to rescue, I don't know how many people would have died here. What's more, the woman is already grateful for bringing this child's body back."

This woman was only in her thirties, she looked very young, she had a bookish look on her body, and she spoke calmly and decently.

It was clear that she should be the saddest person.

Qi Shu said in a low voice, "I met Ling'ai."

The woman was taken aback.

"I went into the mountain the day before yesterday... and I met her." Qi Shu considered for a moment, but did not tell the story of the woman's body being possessed by an evil spirit, "But I arrived too late, she had already passed away by then, leaving only a wisp of consciousness It hasn't dissipated."

"She said she wanted me to take her home."

The woman burst into tears again.

Her figure was shaky, and she managed to stand still by borrowing strength from the person who supported her. She nodded with a sob: "Okay... I'm going home... I'll take her home..."

The burials of these dozens of women still need to be taken care of, and they didn't stay for long, and quickly collected the corpses and left.

The magistrate finally finished his lengthy speech and sent away the people surrounding the yamen. He didn't come over in person, but sent the yamen servants to come several times, and wanted to invite the immortal elders to the front hall for a talk. But Qi Shu ignored him and stayed in the courtyard until the last family member was sent away.

The people in the courtyard left completely, Qi Shu sighed softly, turned around, but saw his master standing under the corridor.

I don't know how long I stood there.

Qi Shu walked over and forced a smile on his face: "Why is Master here? The disciple just helped the people of Lingyang City to collect the corpses, and there was a delay, so I-"

"I don't blame you for this matter." Gu Hanjiang interrupted him.

Qi Shu fell silent.

It was dusk at this time, the yard was quiet, and the setting sun was shining golden around the two of them.

Gu Hanjiang said: "Life and death are destiny. You have practiced Taoism for many years, so you shouldn't disturb your mind because of these things."

Qi Shu still didn't answer.

Of course he understands this.

In the past few years, he traveled down the mountain and encountered many demons and disasters, among which there were many casualties.

But only this time, he could have avoided it.

"Ashu, you don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself." Gu Hanjiang looked down at him, "Back then, all the great immortal sects had spent a lot of effort to kill that dragon monster, but you were the only one who did it."

"You think you can avoid this disaster as long as you are more careful, but you never thought, if you do it again, can you really do it?"

Qi Shu was taken aback.

If he does it again, will he be able to completely kill the Jiao Yao in the cold pool

Qi Shu wasn't sure.

At that time, he fought fiercely with the Jiao Yao for three days and three nights, and his physical and spiritual strength were already exhausted.

If it continues to consume, it is really uncertain who will win and who will win.

Not to mention that even until now, he didn't know how the dragon monster escaped from the golden cicada under his sword.

"You can't force anything, just do your best, that's enough."

"The obsession is too deep, and you can't get what you want. On the contrary, you will easily develop demons and cause irreversible consequences." Gu Hanjiang whispered, "Ashu, as a teacher, I don't want to see you..."

His voice stopped abruptly.

Qi Shu was puzzled: "What did Master say?"

Gu Hanjiang shook his head: "Nothing."

Normally, Qi Shu would probably be able to realize something from his hesitating to speak, but now he is still in a mess and doesn't care about these things.

Qi Shu said: "Master's words, disciples will remember them in their hearts."

"It's good that you understand."

Gu Hanjiang took a step forward, took out the little fox jade pendant that Qi Shu gave him earlier from his bosom, and hung it on his waist with his own hands.

The distance between the two suddenly became very close.

Qi Shu looked up, his master lowered his head slightly, his beautiful eyes were lowered, they were full of tenderness and concentration.

At this distance, he could even feel Master's steady and cool breathing.

Qi Shu's heart twitched slightly.

"Master is afraid that the disciple will be sad, so he came to coax me on purpose?"

Gu Hanjiang paused.

Qi Shu: "You're still avoiding me tomorrow morning."

Gu Hanjiang: "..."

"I didn't hide from you." Gu Hanjiang tied the jade pendant for him, straightened up, his tone sounded a little stiff, "The magistrate is still waiting in the front hall, it's almost time for meal, let's go."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, but Qi Shu grabbed his sleeve.

"Didn't hide from me...but it's always true that you came here to coax me, right?" Qi Shu took another step diagonally forward. Behind Gu Hanjiang is the hole in the corridor, Qi Shu took this step, leaving almost no retreat for his master.

He grabbed Gu Hanjiang's sleeve and looked up at him: "Master has been hiding from me all morning, how can you coax me back with just a few fluffy words?"

He is no different from making trouble for no reason.

"I said I didn't..." Gu Hanjiang turned his head, the two people's eyes suddenly collided, and their voices stopped.

Qi Shu stared into those eyes, and whispered: "At least you should... give me a hug?"

The author has something to say: In Qi Shu's fantasy: It's another day of hard work!

In Gu Hanjiang's eyes: Acting like a baby.
