Time was pressing, and I didn't have time to look at the crumpled fruit, what was the great thing that was worth grabbing frantically by many forces, so I subconsciously stuffed this in my arms and ran along the same road.

Step by step, we escaped from this terrifying plant manor, ran to the back mountain, and came to the retreat route designed before, Chen Xuanyi let go of the hand that was holding Zhao Xu's arm, slumped on a stone, and gasped for breath.

I was also tired enough, so I quickly stopped and rested back to back with Chen Xuanyi.

The sky was dark, the moon was thick with clouds, and the atmosphere was still jammed.

I waited until I had enough breath before I looked up at Zhao Xu beside me, and saw him sitting motionless, his body was covered with blood, and he didn't bother to wipe it, and there was also a bruise on his chest, which was estimated to have broken several ribs, but his face was very numb, and he didn't show pain at all.

How much trauma has a man's heart suffered to be numb to such an extent?

I sighed and said to Zhao Xu, "The deceased is gone, I believe that when your family looks at you from the sky, they don't want to see you so decadent, I know you are very bitter in your heart, but you have to mourn." ”

I'm a very stupid person, and I don't know how to comfort someone in this situation, but I really can't bear to see Zhao Xu so decadent.

Listening to my words, Zhao Xu raised his head a little, looked at me, and said "um", his expression was like a stone, and it was very uncomfortable to see me.

Chen Xuanyi pulled my arm, shook his head lightly, and motioned me not to remind Zhao Xu to recall these things, my face was full of helplessness, and I was about to nod, but I caught a glimpse of a black shadow sitting on a big stone less than a hundred meters away from us.

Who is it?

All at once the muscles of my body jumped up, and I stood up suddenly, my eyes widened, and I looked at the man in great horror, like this black shadow sitting cross-legged on a stone, a chilling tiger!

When did this guy come, and why didn't Chen Xuanyi and I notice his footsteps.

Or, he has been sitting there, but it was too dark for Chen Xuanyi and I to find out.

I immediately put on a vigilant posture and looked at this black shadow with fierce eyes, Chen Xuanyi was also stunned by the appearance of the black shadow, got up and said to the man, "Poor Chen Xuanyi, the teacher came out of the Laojun Pavilion of Qingcheng Mountain, and I have seen my predecessors. ”

The figure in the darkness did not speak, just coughed lightly, then took out a walking stick in the shape of a dragon's head, supported it and stood up, and as he walked, he fixed his bright eyes on us, and sighed slightly, "I haven't asked about the world for decades, and I hid in Hong Kong Island just to avoid disaster, but I never thought that disaster would come to the door......"

He sighed, shook his head, and then pointed at Chen Xuanyi, saying that you are actually a disciple of Laojun Pavilion, and your roots are not bad, but Laojun Pavilion is thousands of miles away from Hong Kong Island, why do you, a little Taoist, want to cross thousands of miles and go against our Li family?

The Li family?

The person who came to report his identity immediately made me and Chen Xuan secretly stunned, glanced at each other, and said cautiously, "Senior Mingjian, we didn't intend to go against the Li family from beginning to end, but your people are too unparticular about doing things, and they actually ......."

The man waved his hand, interrupted the two of us, and continued to walk slowly, and under the night, a rickety figure was revealed, wearing a pale yellow Tang costume, with sparse hair, gray-white, and some dark yellow old age spots on his face.

At first glance, Chen Xuanyi's hearts and I were occupied by countless horrors, this old man just stood there, just like a kind of Mount Tai overpower, the monstrous power of the flooding of the Yellow River, under the pressure, it made us all feel breathless.

This man is strong...... I'm afraid it's two levels higher than the previous Pu Zan, and in my impression, only the mad knife Pu Zhenshan who killed Qingcheng Mountain that day can be compared to it.

Oh my...... Is there such a terrible character on Hong Kong Island?

Chen Xuan and I were not calm, swallowed saliva, and secretly watched on guard, but the old man didn't seem to see it, he didn't care at all, but turned his gaze to Zhao Xu, sighed and said, "I've heard everything about here, what happened to your wife and daughter surprised me, and it's also because I don't control it strictly, so I will let these people do nonsense and tear a good family to pieces, alas, it's really a sin......"

Chen Xuan took a step forward and said stubbornly, "Seniors said it easily, a family was ruined by your people like this, it's not something that you can offset by a few sighs and a few words of repentance here." ”

The old man took out a handkerchief, covered the corners of his mouth and coughed lightly, then nodded and said, "But what else, young man, if you had not drawn him into this trouble, how could this little friend's wife and daughter have suffered such misfortune?"

Chen Xuan was speechless when he said this, and he was silent for a long time.

The old man continued to shake his head and said, "That's it, things in the world have always been like this, no matter what the cause and effect, let him go, although my people have done something wrong and hurt a family, but you have also made the botanical garden I worked so hard to build a mess, and even a few of my subordinates died tragically, so it's better to stop and shake hands between the two sides, okay?"

Chen Xuanyi didn't say anything, but I took a step forward and said, "So, the seniors came here this time to propose reconciliation?"

The old man nodded silently, said yes, and then pointed to the soul rejuvenation grass fruit in my hand, saying that this thing was cultivated by the old man for more than ten years, in order to wait for it to mature, I don't know how much effort it took to wait, and even did not hesitate to invite Master Puzan from Southeast Asia to manage this thing for me.

"You return this thing, and the old man lets you go, this is the condition of reconciliation. ”

I finally understood that the old man did not show up when there was such a big disturbance in the botanical garden before, but only after Chen Xuanyi and I fled, he came in person, not to embarrass us, but to recover what belongs to him.

Secondly, I finally understood why Pu Zan went to Hong Kong Island, it turned out that this guy did not come to take revenge on Huang Guowei, but was invited by the Li family to cultivate the fruit of the Soul Restoration Grass for them.

After figuring out these circumstances, my heart was relieved.

This old man is a master, we don't have to try, just from the momentum he showed when he stood there, we could feel it. If you really start to do it, I'm afraid that Chen Xuanyi and I together will not be enough for people to pinch each finger.

Anyway, it's useless for me to take this thing, so it's better to hand it over in exchange for freedom.

"Okay, is it okay if we just give it to you, and what if you regret it?" I said, thinking in my heart, wondering if there would be any deception in this.

If he turns his face immediately after taking something, what will happen to me and Chen Xuanyi?

The old man laughed, revealing two incomplete front teeth, "I, Li Miao, have not asked about the world for decades, and I have long left me for a long time on the rivers and lakes, how can I have the heart to play such a trick with a few hairy young men?"

Hearing this, I didn't react, but Chen Xuanyi suddenly opened his eyes wide, revealing a face full of surprise, and said in a trembling voice, "You are Li ...... The former commander of the Restoration Society, the Heavenly Demon Hand who is one of the elders of the Demon Sect, Senior Li?"

What the?

Chen Xuanyi's words almost scared me out of the pee, God...... Another Demon Cult Elder.
