Of course it's a joke!
Cao Xin is not a fool, he has already defected to Pei Wuji, how could he really want to die for a Shen Du who didn't value him at all
Not to mention Shen Du, even Pei Wuji has nowhere to go!
But dare he say it
If he said it, it would be fooling Shen Du to play, and if he was unhappy, he would kill himself. So almost without thinking about it, Cao Xin chose the wrong one in the end—
"The subordinates are loyal to the Taoist master, and there is absolutely no falsehood!"
"it is good!"
Shen Du laughed, rarely admiring him.
"I didn't expect Cao Duzhu to be so loyal and courageous. It's really admirable. Look at the demons today, who is more bloody than you?"
These few words speak the truth.
For a moment, Cao Xin felt a little dazed: why didn't he question it at all, and even agreed with his own words at once
He has such weight in Shen Du's place
Do not.
No.
Decided not to!
The heartbeat stopped abruptly for a moment, and an unprecedented sense of crisis suddenly flooded into my heart.
Cao Xin couldn't hold back, and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.
"This is what my subordinates should do. The Taoist master is wise and wise, and now he has returned safely, and he will fight against those hypocrites who claim to be righteous in the future, it will definitely make them suffer a lot. I have a Taoist master in Tianya, it is true It is God who has eyes, my subordinates congratulate the Taoist, congratulations to the Taoist!"
"Congratulations, Hexi, you don't have to."
Shen Du naturally saw his terrified expression, but he didn't take it into his heart at all. That voice still had a taste of understatement, but on the top of this empty and cold top, there was a sense of dread.
"Master Cao is willing to die for this Dao Master, and I am really moved. How dare you let him down so easily?"
"Since I have returned unharmed, Master Cao should get what he wanted."
"Pei Zuo envoy, you have always been on good terms with Master Cao, so please - send him to die."
What, what? !
That light and faint voice fell into Cao Xin's ears, and it was like five thunders!
He couldn't even believe his ears: "Daoist! Taoist, I..."
He had all kinds of words to justify, but Shen Du was impatient to listen, and he finally turned his eyes to Pei Wuji with pity.
Pei Wuji knelt on the ground like the rest.
It's just that at this time, he didn't seem to have thought that Shen Du would suddenly order him, so that when he heard this, he was in a trance and didn't move.
He betrayed Shen Du.
Now Shen Du is back.
Then he commanded him nonchalantly, like any day before that, as if the betrayal in between had never happened.
But…
He said, let him send Cao Xin to die.
Now that he is at the top of the cold, who is qualified to participate in this discussion, who does not know that Cao Xincai joined him and was promoted by him more than ten days ago
But now Shen Du wants him to do something to Cao Xin!
If he really does it, from now on, how others will see it, and what kind of situation he will face, can hardly be imagined without thinking.
From the depths of his throat, there was a faint bitterness.
At this moment, even Pei Wuji, who knew Shen Du from Xu, had the illusion that he didn't understand him. Just because the look on his face is too natural.
Seems to still trust him, so let him do it.
But reason told him—
Shen Du wanted to force him to do something, to force him to cut off the henchmen he had finally cultivated, the forces he had built up, and to force him to change the order day and night, so that he would lose the credibility of everyone in this demonic way.
He wants everyone to know that Pei Wuji is just a dog he keeps.
The whole heart seemed to be smashed by a heavy hammer, the flesh was blurred, and the blood was dripping.
But Pei Wuji knew that he was not qualified for pain.
He betrayed Shen Du, and he betrayed his trust, so the difficulties and sufferings that are coming now are the retribution he deserves.
Cao Xin.
What is a Cao Xin worth
face.
What does a little face count for
Even if Shen Du wants the stars in the sky, he is willing to go to the sky to pick them up for him, as long as he is still willing to let himself stay by his side...
He still wants him.
The fingers with a thick layer of calluses clenched quietly and slowly unfolded. Pei Wuji's eyes, like Beichen in the night sky, flickered slightly.
After a moment of silence, he finally walked towards Shen Du at the top of the steps—
Fushou.
As always, accept his orders and execute his decisions.
He knocked his forehead to the ground, but there was a faint smile in his voice: "Subordinate Pei Wuji, take orders."
"no no!!!"
If Shen Du's words just made him unable to believe it, then after Pei Wuji's words were spoken, he could already smell the danger that would make him collapse!
"Daoist, Pei Zuo envoy! The subordinates are really loyal..."
Shen Du looked indifferently.
Pei Wuji just got up, picked up the woundless knife that was originally attached to his waist, and walked towards Cao Xin. Every time he took a step closer, Cao Xin had to take a step back.
The danger of life and death forced his face to twist.
"Pei Wuji!"
"You can't kill me!"
"Daoist, Daoist! He betrayed you, he was ungrateful, and he was ungrateful! He still stabbed you in the back at a critical moment! His subordinates defected today, and they were all forced by him!!!"
Before, he used to say the words of loyalty with a face full of hypocrisy, but now all the sesame seeds are shaken out, and Cao Xin roared hoarsely.
But Shen Du didn't seem to hear it.
Pei Wuji didn't mean to stop at all, only that sharp brow was dyed with a bit of murderous intent!
Do not…
Pei Wuji really wanted to kill him!
Cao Xin felt despair in his heart, he didn't even understand how this matter suddenly became like this, let alone why he had to die!
Begging for mercy is no longer useful, if you want to survive, you can only fight!
When he retreated in front of Yao Qing, seeing the moment when he could not retreat, his heart sank, and the original fear in his eyes suddenly changed!
Seriously gloomy!
Seeing that Pei Wuji had raised the knife, he patted his waist without hesitation!
"Snapped!"
There was a crisp whip in the air!
At this critical moment, Cao Xin pulled out a nine-section whip made of stainless steel from his waist and threw it directly at Pei Wuji!
Everyone was surprised!
Pei Wuji's face was even colder. He seemed to have expected that Cao Xin would jump over the wall in a hurry. There was no panic under his hand.
It's just that the knife is hard and the whip is soft, and the tip of the whip still goes around and swept across his face!
Brush and pull!
A bloodstain was pulled out immediately!
Pei Wuji is inherently ruthless, and when he does things for Shen Du, he always looks like an executioner without emotion.
It's like no pain at all.
This bloodstain only added a chilling horror to his face.
If you have the ability to become the rudder master of the Jiangyin branch, in addition to the scheming, the ability will naturally not be too bad. Even if Cao Xin's martial arts are not top-notch, he can be regarded as the number one figure in the arena.
What's more, Pei Wuji's martial arts have never been top-notch.
Everyone knows that he was taught by Shen alone, and he was able to slowly train through hard work and gritted teeth. He was by no means a genius in martial arts.
So now Cao Xin suddenly launched an attack, and actually supported him for a while under Pei Wuji's hands.
The two fought.
The people around dispersed almost immediately.
Only Yao Qing stood on the spot, vigilant and alert, his fingers quietly pressed on the hidden device bracket on his waist, and with a bit of inquiring eyes, he handed it to Shen Du, who was watching from the steps.
Shen Du gently shook his head.
When Yao Qing saw it, he hesitated a bit, but in the end, he slowly removed his fingers, suppressing the thought that he wanted to intervene in this matter, and just stood by and watched.
When people are forced into a desperate situation, their potential will always burst out.
Cao Xinben can also be regarded as a ruthless character on the road, and his attack on Pei Wuji is even more ruthless. And while fighting, he also observed the surrounding situation, looking for an opportunity to escape.
It's a pity that Pei Wuji wouldn't give him this chance.
Even if his talent is mediocre, he was raised by Shen alone.
When facing Shen Du, he may be an obedient dog who sways when he calls him; but when facing others, those humbleness and softness do not exist at all, he is a cruel, cruel and unruly solitary. Wolf.
Cao Xin was trapped and fighting, how could he escape from his palm
The vicious fight lasted only for a moment, and Pei Wuji's left palm slapped directly on his chest, causing the opponent to spit out blood immediately.
Then the neck became cold, and the whole neck was lost.
The world in front of Cao Xin was suddenly thrown up, and then he felt himself falling, and a burly body without a head appeared in his field of vision. Blood spurted out from his neck like a spring, dyeing the knife with dark red cloud and thunder pattern red.
Pei Wuji's knife.
Shen Du's knife.
"Boom" sounded.
He landed.
His eyes were wide open unwillingly, and the expression on his face gradually solidified together with the blood that began to cool.
It was so cold that you could hear the wind blowing in from outside.
Shen Du reclined on the throne covered with soft fur, and asked lightly, "Are you dead?"
Pei Wuji lifted the head, walked to the bottom of the steps, knelt down again, and placed it in front of him, under Shen Du's eyes.
"Report to Dao Master, dead."
Shen Du raised his eyebrows.
He looked down from this height and looked at Pei Wuji for a long time, but he buried his head, and he couldn't see the expression on his face at the moment.
So he got up and paced down.
When he stopped, he was right in front of Pei Wuji.
The pair of black boots fell on the second step and just entered his field of vision.
He was still kneeling, not moving.
Standing in front of him, Shen Du first glanced at Cao Xin's blood-stained head. He didn't seem to like it very much, so as soon as he lifted his foot and touched the toe of his shoe, he kicked the man's head off.
Then there were no more eyes.
He looked at Pei Wuji again, then leaned over, bent his waist a little, stretched out his hand, and pinched Pei Wuji's chin like a knife with his pointed fingers, forcing him to raise his head .
There was blood on his handsome face.
But in his eyes, there was neither unwillingness nor dissatisfaction, nor any resentment, and he seemed calm and cold. Killing a person is nothing to him, especially someone like Cao Xin.
At least on the surface, he is still a qualified and obedient knife.
Shen Du just stared at him like this for a long time.
But the thought of killing him in his mind gradually disappeared into the deep sea of consciousness and disappeared.
His fingers, which were a little hard at the beginning, slowly loosened, and finally moved away, and only used the slightly cold thumb to smear the blood-red welt on the side of Pei Wuji's face.
The wet blood immediately stained the pulp of the finger.
His touch made Pei Wuji's eyes, which were as obscure as the deep sea, finally have a faint dim light, and his figure was reflected in it.
Only his figure was reflected.
Shen Du suddenly laughed.
He withdrew his hand, stared at the blood on his fingertips for a moment, as if he was obsessed with the taste of blood, put his thumb to his lips, and tasted the cold blood.
In the eyes of others, he is undoubtedly a devil living in the world.
But sometimes...
Not only Pei Wuji, but even he himself would wonder: why do you want to keep him alive, train him, support him, let his ambitions inflate, and give birth to those ideas that shouldn't be there
Maybe it's just the look in that moment.
Shen Du blinked, but in the end he didn't say anything, he just stretched out his hand, the Buddha beads on his wrist swayed lightly, then patted Pei Wuji's head twice, and said, "Good."
