Chapter 39: Death to Atone
The girl stood in the woods, dressed in a red man's clothes, her straight figure looked very thin, and Lan Zhi knelt there behind her, her forehead hit the ground, maintaining a kneeling posture, motionless.
It was the first time she had killed someone, and she had killed a traitor.
Lan Rui's wrongness, presumably the ancestor already knew, she remembered that once the ancestor came to see her in the study, and talked about it casually, Lan Zhi, this kid is a hard-working and honest person, but Lan Rui can't be idle, always running around.
But the ancestor didn't do it himself, maybe he also wanted her to solve it herself.
In this cruel world, everyone has to face such growth.
Even the Yuanying Monk knew that he would not be able to protect his little granddaughter under his wings for the rest of his life.
If you want to cultivate the path of immortality, you must first be a ruthless person.
Her hands trembled a little, and she gritted the roots of her teeth and clenched her fingers into fists with all her might.
Her fists were still shaking.
Lan Zhi quietly raised his head, saw the slightly trembling back, and suddenly lowered his head, and two tears rolled out at once.
It's that she's so useless!
There was a traitor in the master's personal guard, but she didn't know it, and she was almost killed by the traitor!
If it weren't for the eldest lady appearing, that treasure talisman would have been knocked down, and her bones would have been gone.
If you can't protect your master, you have to rely on your master's protection if your master is in danger......
What is the need for such a guard!
Lan Zhi straightened up, wiped her tears with her sleeve, knelt upright, and made a big bow to Chu Xiaoyue very solemnly.
Then she picked up the sword, and with a cross of her arms, the blade of the sword wiped towards her neck.
However, at this time, Chu Xiaoyue was facing away from her, unaware of this scene!
"Bang!"
The sound of the weapon landing suddenly came, Chu Xiaoyue turned around, and saw Lan Zhi's face full of pathos, kneeling upright, her arms were horizontal, her spiritual weapon fell at her feet, Xiao Shiyu slowly withdrew her palm, and was frowning at Lan Zhi.
"I haven't punished you yet, you want to die?" Chu Xiaoyue understood when she saw this posture, glanced at Xiao Shiyu gratefully, and said to Lan Zhi, "What, you want to escape punishment?"
Lan Zhi hurriedly pleaded guilty, his face was covered with tears, but he didn't dare to say in his mouth.
Chu Xiaoyue thought about it and spoke slowly.
"Two years ago, I was attacked on the day of my birthday party, and I knew at that time that there was a rebellion in my family, but I have been in retreat for the past two years, and I have no time to track it down, and now that I am going to the academy, there is no way to leave a future trouble, so it is necessary to find out that person. ”
Lan Zhi was ashamed in her heart, before the master was going out this time, he gave her the task, vaguely meaning that there were restless people among the guards.
She didn't believe it in her heart, and as the leader of the guards, she even vouched for the eldest lady with her life.
But I didn't expect Lan Rui to really have a problem, and the master was injured two years ago, so it was related to her!
Thinking of the eldest lady retreating alone in the back mountain in the past two years, I hated myself even more in my heart!
"The person behind the traitor must ask her to report my dynamics at all times, so that I went out of the city and told everyone that I was going to change my clothes and sneak, so that you could go to Tongtian City first, and the traitor would definitely come to me to see what I was doing. Chu Xiaoyue said, "Lan Rui not only followed me all the way, but also had a talisman from an unknown source, you also heard what she said." ”
The girl's expression was very cold, "The Chu family does not tolerate rebellion, and you are indeed negligent." ”
Lan Zhi picked up the sword and raised it with both hands, "Lan Zhi is guilty and willing to be punished." ”
"As the leader of the guards, you must be responsible for this, you listen well, go back and write a two-thousand-word review to me, what is the responsibility of the leader of the guards, why has you not found Lan Rui's abnormality, what you don't do well when you usually get along, remember, be profound!"
"Huh?"
"Also, in addition, you go back and write a management plan for the guard team, how to lead this team well, and how to lead a high-level, quality, loyal, hard-fighting, and strong style of the guards. If you don't know how to write, go to the academy to find materials and study more, this is the task for you! Remember, the plan must be specific! It must be operable!"
Lan Zhi was already stunned, and looked at her with a dull expression.
"Alright, don't hold it, pack up your things, and hurry to Babel City. She pointed to Lan Rui on the ground, although the person was dead, the spiritual weapons and storage bags on her body were all things of the Chu family.
Chu Xiaoyue didn't stay long, turned around and walked out of the woods.
Xiao Shiyu followed behind her and walked out of the forest for a long time before saying, "Are you okay?" ”
Chu Xiaoyue stopped and shook her head, "It's okay." ”
The mood is complicated, she can't tell.
She paused, then asked him, "Have you ever killed anyone?"
Xiao Shiyu turned his head slightly, his eyes looking at the mountains in the distance.
"No, but there are a lot of people who have died because of me. ”
He seemed to see that day again.
Xiao Wei's hearts were bloody, his eyes were dead, and his father's voice - get through and live......
A small hand rested on the boy's clenched fist.
He turned his head and saw the girl's slightly worried eyes.
Xiao Shiyu smiled lightly, released his fist, and held her hand in the palm of his hand.
"Silly girl, why are you still worried about me. ”
He is not afraid of killing, and even he feels that he lives for the day when he slashes Zhao Pinsheng!
He changed his words, "You are disguised just to lure out traitors?"
"Well, on the one hand. Chu Xiaoyue admitted, "There is another one, I don't want to use Chu Xiaoyue's identity to go to the academy, it's too ostentatious, but it's not interesting." ”
"That's true, but aren't you worried that Lan Rui won't be fooled?
"Then I'll play it next time, anyway, even if she doesn't come, I'll have to disguise myself." ”
Xiao Shiyu glanced at her and said with a smile, "Clever little girl." ”
Chu Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows and used her entire face to show a smug expression.
"Then Lan Rui and Lan Zhi came out together, don't you doubt Lan Zhi?" The two walked for a long time, and Xiao Shiyu suddenly asked.
Chu Xiaoyue paused, her expression was gloomy, and she said for a while, "I don't doubt it." ”
Orchid Branch......
She is the "crazy loyal dog and accomplice who fuels the troubles" by Chu Xiaoyue's side in the original text. ”
There was a paragraph in the original text, after Chu Xiaoyue's death, the Chu family was about to be taken down by the male and female protagonists, Lan Zhi dug out his spiritual roots, and summoned the mountain protection spirit beast of the Chu family at the back of the Chu family, and finally dragged the footsteps of the male protagonist and the female protagonist, and then Xiao Shiyu rushed to almost kill Yan Yu'er, Lan Zhi burned the essence blood of the whole body when he was dying, and cut off Yan Yu'er's hair bun with a sword, and then Xiao Shiyu flew forward and recaptured Chu Xiaoyue's midnight hairpin.
"She won't betray me, I'm pretty sure. ”
