Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 92: Delayed task

Views:

As the blind man said, although Zhao Changhe seems to be very capable now, he is still somewhat detached in his heart, and the concept of modern college students has never faded in his subconscious.

For example, he stubbornly admitted that he and Xia Chichi were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, even though neither of them said so at the time. He just felt that was the case.

Therefore, Xia Chichi has always been his girlfriend, and he has never had any thoughts about Yue Hongling or Cui Yuanyang. Only when facing Xia Chichi, he feels relieved, thinking that this is my girlfriend, and I can kiss and touch her.

Even that one.

Zhao Changhe was so happy to realize that Xia Chichi had not forgotten their old love even though she had become a saint and had not seen them for half a year. He just wanted to hug her tightly and vent out the passion of this long-awaited reunion.

Both sides were infatuated with each other and the atmosphere gradually heated up.

With a bang, the door was pushed open, and Han Wubing rushed in holding a broken sword. "Why are there sword sounds? I'm here to help... Uh... It's okay, you guys continue."

Han Wubing stepped back step by step, but saw the witch go out through the window and fly away. Her gnashing voice could be heard in the air: "What a traitor! She even has helpers. Leave your head to me and I will take it another day!"

The voice was faint and the person was gone.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!” Many high-ranking members of the Four Symbols Sect flew over from afar: “Has the Saint suffered any loss? Do you want us to…”

"No need!" Xia Chichi's face flushed, and he looked "very angry": "This traitor's life is mine! No one is allowed to take action without permission!"

"…Yes." Everyone looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the speculation about whether the Saint Lady still had feelings for him could be stopped. They were so angry that they gnashed their teeth. The anger in their eyes did not seem to be fake.

No wonder, the saint saw him and Cui Yuanyang hugging each other, he deserved it.

But Zhao Changhe and Han Wubing are quite powerful. They are not in good condition, but they can actually force the saint to retreat together. Their strength needs to be re-evaluated...

Han Wubing carefully retreated to the door. He thought the other person's words were strange. Were you really fighting? Did you fight with your mouth? Was I too tired and my eyes were blurry

But at least one thing can be confirmed, that she was really a witch, not a man wearing women's clothes. Well, it's okay.

Han Wubing took a deep breath and said, "Well, Brother Zhao, I won't disturb you. If there's a sneak attack from a demon girl, you can call me..."

Zhao Changhe wanted to strangle him to death, and said gloomily: "It's okay... I have to thank Brother Han for scaring away the witch."

Han Wubing felt that his words were squeezed out from between his teeth, and he retreated back into the house in embarrassment.

Zhao Changhe hunched over and retreated to the edge of the bed, where he fell flat on his butt.

Although the words were said with gnashing teeth, there was actually some truth in them. In the passion, he forgot everything else, and when he calmed down, he realized that Xia Chichi's current situation was not suitable for having an affair with him. If some evil cult elder came and saw it, he would be finished.

From what Chi Chi said when she left, we can tell that she must have noticed someone coming this way. Han Wubing’s interruption was indeed helpful, and he was indeed kind-hearted... But why do I still want to beat him up...

On the day of the beginning of summer, just wait for me!

… …

"Saint, after these days of research, we have some clues on how to make the sword sacrifice."

Back at the residence reserved by the Four Elephants Sect, Xia Chichi sat at the main seat and listened to the report absentmindedly: "Well, tell me."

The elder reported: "According to the records of the Holy Church over the years, the appearance of the real ancient sword should be related to the season. After many explorations, it is locked on to the beginning of summer. Everyone has already understood this."

Xia Chichi nodded: "Yes, this is why we came this time." "Then we need to have relevant rituals to get the sword to recognize it before it can appear. But the closest time to success, the ancient sword broke free at the last moment, killed someone and escaped. It clearly recognized it before, but suddenly turned hostile. No one can understand why. If we don't understand it, we will fail many times."

Xia Chichi said: "So is there any new clue this time?"

The elder said: "We have collected information about all the sword seekers who died from sword energy, and finally found a commonality."

"oh?"

"It seemed to kill only the ungrateful and treacherous."

Xia Chichi finally got serious and sat up straight: "Is it true?"

"Yes." The elder was a little embarrassed.

The Four Symbols Sect is a demon sect. No matter how they claim to be holy and orthodox, they act in a dark style and have done a lot of evil things. In this environment, who dares to say that they are so loyal and trustworthy? Even if they think they have no other advantages and are the kind of demon disciples who value their promises, they dare not be too confident. What if the ancient sword does not recognize it? Who dares to gamble with their heads

Even Xia Chichi felt a little embarrassed. If she was to be unfaithful, she was confident that she was definitely not. She only liked one man in her life, and even if the sect did not allow it, she kept her feelings deep in her heart, and at least they hadn't changed until now. They even kissed each other just now.

But she did break her promises. It's been half a year, and as a demon cult witch, she must have cheated people... What's the difference between promises and farts for demon cult witches

At this moment, what came to Xia Chichi's mind was the scene he saw on the treetop before. Those two fools who were looking at each other and smiling, they were really loyal and trustworthy, and there was nothing wrong with them.

The embarrassing thing is, I don’t know if the one I like can be considered unfaithful or not. It seems that it makes sense to say he is, and it also makes sense to say he is not. Who knows how Gu Jian will judge... If I really let him go, I will have no way to complain if he is chopped by Gu Jian.

Oh, why did you think of this? They will never be allowed to participate in the affairs of the Four Symbols Sect, so why think about this

Another elder sighed and said, "Of course, the brothers of the Holy Church are loyal and trustworthy. But firstly, we are not sure whether Gu Jian has other hatreds, and secondly, it is not good to gamble with everyone's lives on what Gu Jian thinks. Doesn't this mean that we can't do it?"

Xia Chichi almost laughed out loud when he heard this. Very good, he is indeed shameless, worthy of being my Azure Dragon Guardian. But he said seriously, "That's right, what do you guys think?"

Someone hesitated and said, "Based on past experience, the person who performs the sacrifice does not necessarily have to meet the requirements of the ancient sword. The key is the person who finally takes the sword. I think we can do this. We still hold the sacrifice and trick another outsider to take the sword. Even if he dies, we can just come back next year. If he succeeds, we can take the sword and leave."

Everyone nodded: "Elder Qian is right."

Well, the brothers in the church are indeed trustworthy and loyal. Xia Chichi wanted to laugh more and more, and said lazily: "Then who do you think is more suitable?"

"Han Wubing. Now at the lakeside, I don't think of anyone else."

Obviously, he also felt that Zhao Changhe might not be suitable, and it was even more impossible to trick him into coming to deliver the gift, but Xia Chichi was still very unhappy after hearing this. Why did he say that he couldn't think of a second person? Isn't my Changhe good enough

She still couldn't help but ask, "Where's Zhao Changhe? He traveled thousands of miles just to keep a promise. He is a trustworthy man."

Elder Qian glanced at her and turned his head away.

That's written on his face. You're asking me? Why do you want his head? Don't you know

Xia Chichi, who was regarded as a heroine who was abandoned after being cheated on, gritted her teeth and forced a smile after a long while: "Han Wubing is not easy to fool. You guys try first. In the meantime, look for other options. Don't hang yourself on a tree."

Everyone agreed: "Yes."

"Also, it seems that the Demon Suppression Division has increased its manpower recently. Even the strongest people on the Human Ranking came to a mere brothel. I don't know why." Xia Chichi's expression became serious: "If the court wants this ancient sword, we will give up this time."

"Not really, right? If the court wanted it, why would they do it so secretly... Besides, they are not like us who have the guidance of God. If they can't find the right way, they would have taken it away long ago. Why would they allow people from Ancient Sword Lake to come and go?"

"Don't be careless, be careful and cautious. This is my first major mission, and I can't afford to make any mistakes!"
