Chapter 331: Self-deception
The plan went much smoother than expected.
Yuan Ziyou happily agreed to this matter, and he was not in a hurry to ask for any compensation----
"Your business is more important, as for compensation, although this thing is precious, it is not impossible to live without it. It's not too late to talk about it when it's over. ”
Yuan Ziyou said.
It doesn't matter if you can give away such a precious thing, even though you are friends, but it is quite rare to be able to do this. Jiang Ying was very grateful, and told Fuyao that he must let Liutong choose a good treasure to repay Yuan Ziyou, Fuyao was so entangled that he had no choice, and after agreeing, Jiang Ying gave up.
With Yuan Ziyou's permission, after several people discussed, they decided to let Mo Ruo stay outside and rush back to the Shadow Gate, and Tang Qinian and Jiang Ying hid in the wooden bracelet to guide them.
The reason for this decision was also a last resort. When Jiang Ying and the others were in the realm of Chengtian, Yuan Ziyou was not idle, and had been using his own power to inquire about the news within Cangyuan City.
didn't inquire, but fortunately, this inquiry found out that the Lu family was furious about Lu Chi being plundered, and almost poured out, in addition to tracking Lu Chi, they were also looking for the whereabouts of Jiang Ying and Tang Qinian.
In this case, let the two of them rush back by themselves, although they have a seamless disguise, but it is difficult to guarantee whether the Lu family's tentacles have reached into the inside of the Shadow Gate--- if this is really the case, even if they return to the Shadow Gate, Jiang Ying and Tang Qinian are not safe.
After thinking about it, I came up with such a decision.
Let Mo Ruo re-disguise himself as another member of the Mo family, the unique aura and identity of the Mo Snake clan plus the appearance, even if he is recognized, he will just think that he is just a disciple of the Mo family who came out of the Moon Fire City in the Jindan period, such an ordinary demon cultivator, if he falls into the crowd, no one will pay attention to it, just right, suitable for covering up their whereabouts.
After planning the route back to the sect, and carefully thinking about what might happen on the way, to make sure that nothing went wrong, Mo Ruo then went on the road.
"Senior Brother Tang, I saw that your face was not very good, what's wrong?"
On the way back to the sect, Jiang Ying, Tang Qinian, and Lu Chi all hid in their wooden bracelets, and when they had nothing to do, they practiced separately. Jiang Ying's cultivation was so tired that she was bored and wanted to look out, but when she opened her eyes, she saw Tang Qinian's slightly complicated expression, and couldn't help but ask softly.
"I ......" Tang Qinian paused, as if he didn't know how to speak, hesitated for a long time before letting out a long sigh, and replied: "Senior Sister Jiang, do you know, since I entered the Shadow Sect, I have always been proud of myself as a disciple of the Shadow Sect, although it is now one of the bottom of the four major sects, and it is no longer the glory of the past, but I am still very proud of this sect from the bottom of my heart. ”
"But I never thought that one day, I would have to hide and hide even when I returned to the sect, and I wouldn't be found out in the open. Tang Qinian raised his head and looked at Jiang Ying with a wry smile. "Don't you think we're really like street rats? It's not enough for everyone to shout and beat us, but it's too embarrassing. ”
"......" Jiang Ying was silent.
She didn't feel that way.
But in this situation of internal and external troubles, she couldn't say anything at all, not to mention being forced to do this, there was a big reason, because the two of them sneaked into the Lu family, saw through the Lu family's plans and conspiracy, and took Lu Chi away.
In a sense, being in such a situation is not unrelated to what they have done before.
But Jiang Ying couldn't say this to Tang Qinian.
How do you say it? Do you want to tell Tang Qinian that it was because of Lu Chi that he fell into such a situation?
I can't say.
"Although I think so too, but Senior Brother Tang, the current Shadow Gate is no longer the Shadow Gate that looks glamorous on the outside, singing and dancing and leveling, all kinds of internal and external troubles......" Jiang Ying bit her lip. "What happened to us is nothing compared to these things. ”
Tang Qinian's eyes were also dark. Although she knew that Jiang Ying was deliberately opening up the topic, what she said was indeed the truth.
"The Thousand Crane Hall will soon join other sects, and the high-level leaders in the sect must have already noticed it. Tang Qiqing said with a sigh.
"What's the use of only those high-level people knowing?Once this happens, aren't it those low-level disciples who will suffer?" Jiang Ying asked rhetorically. "But those who are able to protect themselves can more or less hear some rumors, right? In this way, they can save their lives or run away, and make all preparations. But what about those low-level disciples?"
Jiang Ying's voice was a little sad.
"What about those younger brothers who are about the same level of cultivation as me, or even lower than me......, about the same level of cultivation as me? But in the eyes of the Thousand Crane Palace, they are the most worthless kind of people. ”
"The cultivation level is very low, and there is nothing worth taking advantage of, if the big war is really imminent, I'm afraid they will be the ones who will die at the front. Jiang Ying raised her head and looked at Tang Qinian fixedly. "We have thousands of ways to save our lives or escape, but they don't. ”
Tang Qinian was even more silent.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about it, but when he thought about the beginning, he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
As Jiang Ying said, those "low-level disciples" who have the lowest cultivation and the most useless in the eyes of those people will become the first batch of victims--- those junior brothers and sisters who used to surround him and call his senior brother with a happy smile......
Tang Qinian shuddered involuntarily, he really didn't want to, and didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
"We ...... Isn't this about to go back to the sect? When you go back, you ask Elder Taishang, and I'll ask my master, and I can always ...... There's always a way, right?" Tang Qinian reluctantly hooked the corners of his mouth and said softly.
Jiang Ying didn't respond, just nodded silently.
But she and Tang Qinian knew it in their hearts.
This is nothing more than self-consolation, self-deception.
Escaping the pursuit of the Lu family's tentacles along the way, and finally reaching the realm of the Shadow Gate, Mo Ruo stopped in front of the outer ban of the Shadow Gate in the air, touched the wooden bracelet in his arms and asked softly.
"Sister, I'm in front of the ban now, if I break in so rashly, will I be discovered?"
"You don't have to worry about this, just do what I instruct. Tang Qinian stood up, a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I've reached the boundary of my own home, and it would be too embarrassing if this could be discovered. ”
