“......”

The middle-aged man who was called Senior Brother was silent for a while, and then slowly tightened his fingers, Lu Tao's sweat came down, and sure enough, his unlucky life would always be unlucky to the end.

Lu Tao's bad luck is probably a very cliché and passionless story.

This small two-story apartment was left to him by Lu Tao's parents, who died in an accident when he was very young, and Lu Tao couldn't even remember what his parents looked like, the only impression was the heavy depression at the funeral, and the white flowers with a disgusting fragrance.

For as long as he can remember, Lu Tao has lived with his grandmother, and in the early years, there were many migrant workers living nearby, and Lu Tao's grandmother rented out other rooms to them to earn money for food and clothing and Lu Tao's schooling. Lu Tao dropped out of high school until his sophomore year of high school, because his grandmother was sick, very seriously ill, and needed to be taken care of all the time.

In fact, at school, Lu Tao has no happy memories, children without parents will always be discriminated against in one way or another, the only thing that can make Lu Tao happy is that every time the results are announced, Lu Tao's grades are very good, he can use his scores to despise those who looked down on him before, although it is a pity, but since his grandmother was sick, Lu Tao has never thought about going to school.

A year ago, Lu Tao's grandmother also passed away, and after the funeral with his uncle and aunt, who had no contact, Lu Tao really became a loner.

Now, it seems, it's your turn.

Thinking of this, Lu Tao slowly calmed down, there seems to be nothing worth nostalgia in this world. So, if you die like this, probably you won't have any regrets?

Maybe tomorrow there will be a news item in the newspaper: "Shocked! A man died in his home! What is the cruelty of the murderer?"

Thinking of this, Lu Tao couldn't help but smile in his heart, he could still make jokes when he died, and probably he didn't complain about his death. Hearing that the memories from birth before death will be repeated, Lu Tao thought, can he remember his parents?

"Senior brother, why don't you do it yet? Let me contract this demon cat earlier, and we can go back sooner. ”

"No! The Monks League has a branch here, and I'm afraid that if we kill this ordinary person, they will come to the door. They have a special way of discerning whether it is a monk who has made a move, and our rank cannot hide it from them. ”

Lu Tao felt that it seemed to be a long time since the middle-aged man tightened his fingers, but in fact, only half a minute had passed, and he rolled his eyes, and he could only see the blue sky outside from the open door. Is this the only way to escape?

Lu Tao is not stupid, it is better to say that he can maintain good grades in such an unfriendly school, Lu Tao is a very smart person. Whether it was the fact that they called the black cat a demon cat, or the miracle that a middle-aged man could make himself unable to move with a single look, coupled with the word Monk Alliance, all the facts pointed to a world that Lu Tao had never been in contact with.

Xiuzhen, does it really exist?

Lu Tao listened quietly, and the conversation between the two was continuing.

"Senior brother, even if there is a branch of the Monk Alliance here, as long as we do it secretively, they may not be able to find out that in such a big city, and this place is so far away from the city, how many people in the Monk Alliance can spread it?"

After a pause, as if sensing that Senior Brother was not persuaded by himself, the short-haired young man continued: "Master has told me a long time ago that Senior Brother, your character is too indecisive, so your cultivation progress will be so much slower than Senior Brother. ”

Lu Tao felt that the fingers on his head suddenly tightened, as if he was caught by an iron tong, all his thoughts were shattered, and Lu Tao thought he was dead at that moment. Fortunately, the short-haired young man didn't finish his words, he paused again, and continued to speak, Lu Tao felt that he must have done it on purpose, deliberately stimulating the middle-aged man, if he could put himself to death at once.

"If Senior Brother, you think it's inappropriate to kill him here, then why don't we just change places?" I remember that there is a contact point on the Desperate Island nearby, and we will kill him when we get there, and if anyone asks, it will be said that it is a new disciple accepted by our Nine Palaces, because the exercises have gone wrong and gone mad, the Monk Alliance will not even care about any disciples we accept, right?"

As soon as the pressure on his head was relaxed, Lu Tao suddenly had a feeling that he was alive, but if he was taken to the contact point of the desperate island, he would probably still be too dead to die anymore.

Think about it! Is there any way!

Lu Tao felt that his clothes were tight, and he was already carried in his hands by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man threw it lightly, Lu Tao came to the door from the living room, his body hit the ground hard, half of his body was crispy, Lu Tao rubbed his arm that was pretending to be in pain, and suddenly found that he could move.

"Get up and walk on your own!" You should understand where you are, so don't do anything superfluous!"

Lu Tao stood up and patted the dust on his body, but he was impatiently grabbed by the short-haired young man, and then was sandwiched between two people and began to walk in the direction of the west, and the black cat that was mummified by Lu Tao was held in the arms of the short-haired young man.

Running is definitely not going to be able to run, Lu Tao observed the surroundings, looking for possible opportunities.

At this time on weekday afternoons, there were no people on the road at all, and the farther west they went, the more desolate they became, and the residential buildings and convenience stores that had originally been five or six floors slowly turned into rugged car repair shops. Occasionally, passers-by saw the two people walking with Lu Tao from a distance, so they avoided it from a distance, and there was no chance to get close at all.

Besides, even if you ask these ordinary people for help, it probably doesn't make any sense.

Turning left and right, a tea shop appeared on a slightly bustling street, Lu Tao was still thinking, will anyone really come to open a tea shop here? The middle-aged man stopped, he opened the door of the tea shop, and said to Lu Tao: "It's here, go in!"

Lu Tao hesitated, and without waiting for the short-haired young man to push him, he raised his feet and walked inside, he didn't expect to arrive so soon, but unfortunately there was no chance on the way.

The bell on the door made a pleasant sound with the action of opening the door, and the fragrance of tea in the room made Lu Tao feel refreshed, this is really a tea shop.

Tea leaves of different colors were piled up on the left and right, lined up all the way, there was a pleasing feeling, but Lu Tao was not in the mood to appreciate it, he just stared at the bespectacled tea shop owner behind the counter, expecting the plans of the two people behind him to fall through.

The middle-aged man called Senior Brother took out a wooden sign and gave it to the tea shop owner and said, "Someone from the Nine Palaces is here, we need a room." ”

Under Lu Tao's expectant gaze, the owner of the tea shop just glanced at him curiously, and then responded to the middle-aged man's request.

"Okay, please come with me. ”

Lu Tao sighed, followed behind, passed through a door, and came to a courtyard, the yard is very large, and it is very strange to put it together with the previous tea shop, directly in front of it is a two-story building that I don't know what to do, surrounded by a circle of houses with the same specifications arranged neatly, although it is not carved beams and paintings, but it also has some exquisite ancient architectural styles.

The middle-aged man, led by the owner of the tea shop, walked to one of the rooms, and halfway through, two people suddenly came out of the two-story building in front of him.

The one in front is also a middle-aged man, dressed in white clothes, with long hair tied behind his head with a rope, if ordinary people are dressed like this, Lu Tao will definitely muttered a word of neuropathy, but this person's appearance does not have any sense of disobedience. The people who came out from behind were a little rich, and when Lu Tao saw him, he inexplicably thought of the word "outside".

Lu Tao's eyes lit up, this should be his last chance.

The rich "outsider" spoke, and the object was the tea shop owner who was leading the way at the front: "Lao Liang, who are these people?"

Sure enough, this is a person who can speak, Lu Tao's heart moved, and he was about to open his mouth to call for help, when the middle-aged man behind him suddenly stepped in front of him and glared at Lu Tao fiercely.

Lu Tao became unable to speak and move again, and only his eyeballs could move slightly.

"Elder Li, these are the people of the Nine Palaces who want to use our room. ”

Lu Tao struggled to move his eyeballs, hoping to attract the attention of the other party, this feeling was like someone had smeared a layer of glue on his eyes, and Lu Tao's eyes were about to cramp.

"Oh, that's no problem, go ahead. ”

"Yes, Elder Li. ”

Seeing that the last chance to escape was gone, Lu Tao was extremely desperate, and the next moment, Lu Tao's body moved on its own, although it was a little stiff, but it was still moving forward step by step, Lu Tao wanted to stop but couldn't control himself at all.

"Wait a minute!"

The door of the room was already close in front of him, but because of these words, it was the middle-aged man with long hair and white clothes who spoke, and Lu Tao could even feel the anxiety and uneasiness coming from behind him.

The middle-aged man in white continued to speak: "People from the Nine Palaces, what are you doing with an ordinary person?"

"Senior, he is not an ordinary person, he is a new disciple of our Nine Palaces, and he is going to rest here for one night before going back. ”

The one who made the explanation was the middle-aged man who was called a senior brother by the short-haired youth, Lu Tao didn't know who the names of these two people were, and he didn't plan to know, he took this opportunity and began to move his eyes hard, even for a moment, as long as the questioner was suspicious!

"Hmph! Two juniors in the Qi refining stage! Lying in front of me?!"

The middle-aged man in white snorted angrily, stretched out his hand, and the two people who controlled Lu Tao along the way and made him unable to move flew out with a muffled snort, and then smashed on the ground more than ten meters away, and as soon as the sense of oppression on Lu Tao's body was relaxed, he was able to move again.
