Chapter 031: Returning home

"Senior brother, what should we do now?" Lin Zichen looked at the main road blocked by the separation belt in front of him and said to Qin Yue. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The plan that had been planned was completely disrupted at this moment, Qin Yue was quite worried about the plague in front of him, but he also relieved some doubts in his heart from time to time.

"Hey, it looks like we were calculated from the beginning." Qin Yue gritted her teeth.

"Yes, it's just that the people who are being calculated seem to be far more than us." Lin Zichen returned.

"According to the current situation, the plague is raging, and our previous plan to go to the Phoenix Forest has failed, but we must not sit still, what I am most worried about now is Chunchan, I don't know if she will come out with Tian Ning, it is better to do this, Xitou, you immediately return to the Immortal Peak, ask for support here, I have to go in and have a look, in case Chunchan is inside, I can't leave her."

As soon as Qin Yue's words fell, Lin Zichen categorically disagreed.

"Senior brother, you are trying to break me away, I must not let you in, the plague is raging inside, once infected, your life is in danger, not only can you not save others, but you will also get in, not to mention that you and I don't know if Chunchan is really inside, in case she has come out, you are not in vain."

Lin Zichen's words woke up Qin Yue, but how to confirm whether Chunchan came out made Qin Yue quite anxious.

In an instant, a white-clothed disciple came not far away, and the leader had just met Qin Yue and Lin Zichen, and both of them stood up respectfully.

"Meet the second uncle."

Lifan gestured to excuse him, his face was happy, and said: "It's good for you two to come out, I and the master of the door are still anxious that you are trapped inside, and the plague is raging ahead, how to rescue you." ”

"The disciple has worried the teachers and uncles." Qin Yue greeted.

"Don't say this, just come out, it seems that only a large number of people and horses from the Demon Burning Hall are trapped inside, if you want to find a way to rescue them, the road ahead is afraid that it will not work, you can only lower the rope from the peaks on both sides, from the cliffs, send people to grope down, find them, bring them up, and rescue them." Lifan patted Qin Yue on the shoulder, and then looked at the public and said.

"Second Master, I'm afraid it's not just the people from the Demon Burning Hall, we also saw people from Luoshui Pavilion in it before." Qin Yue hurriedly said.

"I know this, don't be impatient first, you must know that it is Luoshui Pavilion disciple Chunchan who took a disciple of the Burning Demon Hall Tian Ning to the Immortal Peak to send a letter, telling me that there was a plague here, and I was ordered to go down the mountain to build an isolation belt here to control the epidemic, and find the right time to prepare to save people." After hearing this, Li Fan was not surprised, but expected, and said to Qin Yue.

"So they're out." Qin Yue was down-to-earth in her heart and muttered to herself.

"Uncle Junior, have the two senior brothers, Liu Ruqing and Yuyan, come out?" Lin Zichen asked.

"They have all come out, I only thought that you two were trapped inside, and they were ready to try their best to save you, but now I am comforted to see that you are safe, and now I only have the duty of saving the members of the League."

As soon as the words fell, I saw a fast horse galloping out from the side mountain peak not far away, approaching in front of him, jumping down the horse, and quickly advancing to make a statement.

"Disciple Cao Wuxian visited his uncle, and the disciple probed the Demon Burning Hall and his party under the leadership of its head Murong Tian have broken through from the West Mountain, and are now rushing back to the Demon Burning Hall."

Fan Wangcao was unharmed, and read: "I have already broken out of the encirclement, I still wanted to save them, but I didn't expect them to save themselves, in this case, I will withdraw to the Immortal Peak first and tell the peak." ”

"Second uncle, the disciple has one more thing to tell." Qin Yue felt that since there was no one in the Phoenix Forest, the best choice at present was indeed to go back to the Immortal Peak first, but the real ghost-faced scholar who was caught on the road before was still in that farmer's house, so it was better to take advantage of this time to bring back to the Immortal Peak and hand it over to the door master to deal with, and the task of killing the ghost-faced scholar explained by the door master could also be regarded as an explanation.

"What?"

"Uncle Shi, as far as I know, the massacre of this village was done by someone pretending to be a ghost-faced scholar, and his real ghost-faced scholar has been captured by us, and his limbs and veins have been broken, and he was placed in a farmer's house by us." Qin Yue said.

"If this is the case, this matter must be greasy, since this person is caught, and whether he is true or not, this person is extremely evil, you lead the way in front of the two, and first bring it back to the Immortal Peak and hand it over to the door master." After listening, ponder and make a decision.

The entourage disciples immediately brought a few horses, led the way by Qin Yue, and the group galloped on the road.

Walk through the village and into the mottled paths of the mountains.

"It's just not far ahead." Lin Zichen pointed ahead.

Qin Yue took the lead in holding the horse rope and jumped off the horse, and the people who followed dismounted one after another, and Fan Fan stepped forward and asked Qin Yue: "Is this the room?" ”

"Yes." Qin Yue nodded.

The door of this farmhouse was open, which made Fan's heart feel a little strange.

Qin Yue and Lin Zichen led the way into the house, and the blood stains on the ground were clear.

"It's murderous."

Qin Yue stopped suddenly, clenched Qingtian, and fell in a pool of blood not far away, it was the head of the farmer's family, the one who was in a hurry.

"Not good." Lin Zichen was anxious, so he simply rushed into the house, and one person, the old woman, died of death.

But I didn't find the ghost face scholar, why is this?

After Qin Yue confirmed that it was safe, he touched the throat of the deceased with two fingers, and there was still residual warmth, obviously he had just died, and the wound on his neck was cut very evenly, obviously it was injured by a sharp blade, although the person died, the blood was still overflowing between the neck, and the murderous aura was still there, it was obvious that the murderer was one step ahead of us, and he had just left.

"Where's the ghost-faced scholar?" Li Fan looked at Qin Yue.

"It looks like someone rescued or killed." Qin Yue was entangled in her heart and replied.

"It stands to reason that no one should know about it except for the two of you who know that the Ghost Face Scholar is settled here, how can this happen?" Fan is disappointed, bluntly speaking.

What he said was actually Qin Yue's doubts in his heart, and he settled the ghost-faced scholar in a farmer's house, only he and Lin Zichen knew about this matter, and it was impossible for others to know, could it be that there were still people following him at that time, and he didn't notice it, but if he thought about it carefully, it was absolutely impossible, you must know that the two of them came up from the underground palace of the Burning Demon Hall, and their whereabouts were hidden, how could someone follow them.

This time, it can be said that he lost his wife and his soldiers, the ghost-faced scholar was nowhere to be found, and even the two old men of the peasant family were killed, and Qin Yue planned to set up a tombstone for him personally.

As for Fan's question, Qin Yue didn't know how to answer, and bowed her head in embarrassment.

"Regardless of the ghost-faced scholar in advance, even if the death of the two old men in front of me was not killed by you, it has nothing to do with you, and the two of you go up the mountain to give the door master an explanation, hum." With a grim face, he brushed his sleeves and left.

"You ・・・・・・." Lin Zichen just wanted to scold, but was dragged by Qin Yue and signaled him not to speak.

Lifan took the lead in riding a white horse and leading a group of disciples to gallop and go first.

Seeing the figure move away, Lin Zichen was quite angry and said, "Senior brother, he doesn't believe us at all, he is indiscriminate, and he thinks we lied to him." ”

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that it's hard to believe when I encounter this situation." Qin Yue pondered.

"But what we say is true." Lin Zichen was helpless.

"It's our carelessness, I didn't expect this to be the case, before we told the uncle that the ghost face scholar had been caught, hidden in a farmer's house, very safe, and the ghost face scholar hands and feet were broken, but as a result, the ghost face scholar was not there, and two people died, this situation is equivalent to shooting ourselves in the foot, I have to let others suspect that we are using this matter to clear our suspicion that we did not complete the task, he did not say that these two old men were killed by us, this is a farce that I acted and directed by the two of us, and it has already given us face." Qin Yue pondered.

"Well, what do we do now?" Lin Zichen asked.

"What else, this time I went down the mountain, not only did the task not be completed, but I was also framed, and now there is a scene that is difficult to justify, I can only go back to the Immortal Peak and wait for the fate." Qin Yue was entangled in her heart.

After finishing speaking, Qin Yue and Lin Zichen buried the two elders, then stepped on the horse and returned to the Immortal Peak.

Dismounted at the foot of the Immortal Peak and prepared to go up the mountain, the two walked in a hurry, and it didn't take much time to reach the North Pole Gate, and the two of them just arrived at the North Pole Gate, only to see a few guard disciples to support the two of them to go to the North Pole Hall.

When Qin Yue heard this, she already had seven or eight points in her heart, looked at Lin Zichen, and said, "Xitou, don't mention the matter of the two of me entering the underground forest of the Phoenix Forest." ”

After Lin Zichen heard this, he nodded with confidence in his heart.

Bypassing a stone-paved path, the two slowly walked into the Arctic Hall, only to see a person sitting on the chair in the middle of the Arctic Hall, speechless.

Next to him stood Fan, and under him stood Liu Ruqing and Yuyan.

"The disciple meets the two masters." Qin Yue and Lin Zichen stepped forward to salute the two of them.

Wordless waved his hand to excuse him, looked at the four of them, and said: "I have heard about you, and it is indeed a bit hasty to send a few of you down the mountain to kill the ghost-faced scholar this time, after all, you are still young and inexperienced, and the ghost-faced scholar is cunning by nature, and it is understandable that you failed to kill him." ”

"It's the disciple who is not doing well, and I hope that the master of the sect will punish him." Liu Ruqing stepped forward to take the initiative to admit the guilt, which gave Wuyan a good step.

Qin Yue looked at himself in his eyes, and he wanted to take this matter on himself, meaning that he chose someone improperly, which led to the failure of the task, but now Liu Ruqing said this, it can be said that there is something in the words, which means to take the responsibility on himself, so that he knows that the fault is not in the master of the sect and in the disciple's disadvantage, or take the initiative to admit that such a double eagle can not only give the silent step, but also win high marks in front of him.

But Qin Yue also understands that people who often take the initiative to admit their mistakes are generally not the ones who make mistakes, and they will not be punished, which is exactly what Wuxian thinks.

Liu Ru Qingming killed the ghost-faced scholar with a sword, whether it was true or not, it was considered to have completed the task, but he just said that he had not completed it, and Qin Yue knew that he must not have told Wuzhi about the underground forest of the Phoenix Forest.

Before Qin Yue could speak, the four of them were sent down without a word and rested first, but Li Fan stood up and forced Qin Yue and Lin Zichen to stay, which made the two of them a little uneasy.

"You two explain the ins and outs of the matter." Lifan confronted him without saying a word and spoke bluntly to the two of them.

Qin Yue knew what she was talking about, her heart was entangled, and her thoughts were slow.

"The two of us tracked down a ghost-faced scholar, and lost it in the jungle, so they hurriedly searched, and accidentally found that there was a person with broken limbs and veins not far from a mountain villa who was about to lose his life.

"I weighed it again and again, and planned to rush back to the Immortal Peak to report this matter first, who knew that on the way I met with Uncle Fan, and when I talked about it, I took someone to arrest it, who knew that I went to the farmer's house and the ghost face scholar was gone, and the head of the household had no life, and this matter was also too reckless for us, and I regretted it in my heart."

"Wait, let me ask you, where and where did the man with severed limbs and veins find him, what evidence does he have to prove that he is a real ghost-faced scholar and what is the reason for you to believe it, and the place of settlement is only known to you, how this result will happen, whether you noticed that someone was following you before, these are not clear, you need to be detailed." If you look at the bottom of the matter, you will not let go.

Qin Yue was shocked in her heart, she would definitely be exposed if she continued to say this.

"That's enough, you two step back first!" wordlessly gestured to Qin Yue and Lin Zichen.

Li Fan turned his eyes and looked speechless, puzzled in his heart, this matter was full of doubts, and he asked him to retreat before he could find out, why is this? (To be continued.) )
