Chapter 197: A Difficult Choice
Originally, with the resources of the Plum Blossom Sect, it was not difficult for Gu Ruoxi to break through to the third layer of Qi training.
But after the Gu family perished, she clearly felt that the entire sect, including her master, had become very cold to her.
She understood what was going on, in the past, the Gu family provided various worldly resources in the back, and she was naturally taken care of by the Gu family.
However, the Gu family has been destroyed, and the Plum Blossom Sect will not be able to get any benefits from the Gu family, so naturally, she will have little value.
The road ahead can only be walked by herself.
People go to tea and cool, this sentence Gu Ruoxi has a deep understanding at this time. The master doesn't want to see her anymore, and the Gu family is gone, so she Gu Ruoxi is a lonely ghost at this time.
At this time, Gu Ruoxi stopped.
She pulled out a map and looked at it carefully.
If Ye Cheng was here, he would definitely be very shocked, because the map in Gu Ruoxi's hand showed that it was the location of the ancient tomb.
When she got this map, she heard that there was a thousand-year-old spirit ginseng in it, which also made her even more eager for the ancient tomb, but it was impossible to tell others about this kind of thing, plus she wanted to find a place to break through with peace of mind, so she simply brought something and prepared to find the ancient tomb while cultivating.
The only thing that made her wonder, or make her uneasy, was that she had passed out in the cemetery that day, who had rescued her, and even taken her to a cave in the ground?
She knew that she had been attacked by her soul in the cemetery that day.
But when she woke up, she found that there was a warm and comfortable feeling in her body, not at all the feeling of being attacked by filthy qi and having a cold body.
After walking a little further, Gu Ruoxi came to a river.
This river is the birthplace of the Tianling River in the Tianling Mountains, and although the temperature here is already minus twenty or thirty degrees, the water of the river will never freeze.
Also, the river is surrounded by snow-white snow, but at first glance the water has some red, like blood.
The river is not wide, but the water is very fast, and the river is full of huge rocks of various shapes, winding into the distance, and it looks quite majestic.
At this time, Gu Ruoxi was standing by the river, staring at the river with his eyes.
She was thinking about how happy it would be if she didn't have a deep hatred and could come here with a loved one to enjoy the rivers and mountains.
"Nice and beautiful place. Gu Ruoxi muttered to herself, then put down the backpack on her back, she decided to spend the night by this river tonight and continue to set off tomorrow.
Although she spent the night alone in the wilderness, Gu Ruoxi believed that with her cultivation at the peak of the second layer of Qi cultivation, there would be no problem with her safety.
Gu Ruoxi set up a simple tent by the river and walked to the river to wash his face.
But when she walked to the river, she was startled, she had been standing here with nothing just now, but now suddenly there was a corpse, a person who had thrown herself on the river, to be exact.
Is this man alive or dead?
Gu Ruoxi dragged the man who was rushing by the river up, only to find that his body was full of sword scars. It's just that the scars are white from the water.
Gu Ruoxi is not an ordinary person, a person has suffered so many sword injuries on his body, and there are residual spiritual power fluctuations on it, which means that this person is also a monk.
She glanced at the man, and did not find any life fluctuations in him, and if he was injured like this, it was estimated that he would have died a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Gu Ruoxi picked up a branch and turned over the man who was on the ground.
In an instant, Gu Ruoxi was like being struck by lightning.
She took out her mobile phone and pulled up a photo, and the person in the photo was Ye Cheng.
"Ye Cheng!" Gu Ruoxi was stunned, she couldn't have imagined that the person she was trying to kill by all means would appear in front of him like this, and it seemed to be dead.
So, the revenge has been avenged?
But at this moment, Ye Cheng groaned, spit out a few mouthfuls of ice water, and his heart, which had not been beating just now, actually began to beat again.
Not dead!
Gu Ruoxi gritted her teeth, could it be that there must be a providence in the underworld? God sent him to his own hands and let him kill him to take revenge? Gu Ruoxi couldn't calm down in her heart at this moment, and she drew out the magic sword without hesitation.
And at this moment, Ye Cheng coughed, opened his eyes, and began to gasp for breath.
He saw Gu Ruoxi, and soon knew that she was the female cultivator who was saved by him on Cloud Breaking Mountain.
Ye Cheng's spirit was still a little trance, and he didn't realize that Gu Ruoxi wanted to kill him.
On the contrary, the moment he saw her, he breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, good people still have good rewards, he saved her once, and now it is her turn to save herself once.
Thinking of this, Ye Cheng held back the pain in his body and dantian and smiled reluctantly, and said with a cracked mouth: "It seems that I have good luck today......"
Immediately, Ye Cheng sat up cross-legged, took out a silver needle and pricked a few needles on his body, and then began to reluctantly mobilize the remaining spiritual power to repair.
Gu Ruoxi was like being struck by lightning at this time, and took two steps back with his magic sword.
Isn't this voice, this tone, the same as the man who saved her that day?
Although she passed out in the tomb at the time, she still had some residual consciousness.
She felt that she was being carried out, and there was that sentence: You are lucky, I am in a good mood today, so I will save your life.
At this time, she realized that the person who saved her would be Ye Cheng.
Gu Ruoxi was stunned, she couldn't imagine that the person she wanted to kill, or her enemy, turned out to be her savior.
The grace of saving lives!
How so?
Gu Ruoxi's hand holding the dagger trembled a little, she didn't know if she should kill Ye Cheng immediately.
What should she do? Gu Ruoxi fell into a situation where she couldn't make a choice for a while.
Ye Cheng hurried to recover, and that Park Youtian slapped his palm on his back, and his bones and internal organs were severely damaged.
If you don't recover in time, you are afraid that it will leave irreversible sequelae.
Looking at Ye Cheng, who was cultivating cross-legged, Gu Ruoxi struggled in his heart for a long time, and then knelt by the river and prayed: "Grandpa, Ye Cheng is the enemy of my Gu family, but he saved me again." I wish I could kill him now, but I really can't kill someone who saved me once. Grandpa, what should I do? What should I do......"
Gu Ruoxi cried helplessly by the river.
Although Ye Cheng was healing, he always maintained a little vigilance, and part of his consciousness had been monitoring the movements outside.
Naturally, Gu Ruoxi's words were heard clearly.
It turned out that she was a member of the Gu family, Ye Cheng's heart suddenly felt cold, and his spiritual power almost diverted the meridians. It's just that he quickly calmed down, but his heart gradually became cold, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
Now the only thing he can do is to pray that Gu Ruoxi can't bear to kill him, his current situation is completely powerless, and the dantian is still damaged.
Gu Ruoxi really wanted to kill him, then he really had nothing to do.
By the way, Xiaoqing......
Sister, Xiaoqing went out in the river to find the source of the true dragon's qi, otherwise, Gu Ruoxi really wanted to kill him, and it was not necessarily who would kill him.
Gu Ruoxi's eyes were red from crying, and she picked up the magic sword and walked in front of Ye Cheng.
Ye Cheng's heart contracted suddenly, could he still not escape?
"Ye Cheng, I have a clear grudge against me, you saved me once, I won't kill you today, you just took me out of the cemetery at the beginning, and today I also pulled you out of the glacier. Whether you live or die is your own business, and from then on we have nothing to do with each other. But my Gu family was wiped out by you, and the next time I meet you, I will kill you to avenge your blood hatred. Gu Ruoxi almost cried and said this, after finishing speaking, she packed up her things, but turned around and left without looking back.
Maybe deep down in her heart, she hoped that Ye Cheng would lie here, be eaten by a passing beast, or be seriously injured and die.
Ye Cheng felt that Gu Ruoxi was far away, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
It is indeed dangerous in this snowy mountain, and if you can't resume operations as soon as possible, it will be a dead end, but it is better than being killed in front of your eyes.
Although Ye Cheng knew that what Gu Ruoxi said was not realistic, that is, when he rescued her last time, he cleared the yin and evil aura in her body and helped her find a place to live, and she just dragged him up and left it alone, which obviously cannot be equal.
But Ye Cheng thought that Gu Ruoxi was a member of the Gu family, and he didn't expect her to do anything else, so it was already the best thing not to kill him.
