Chapter Twenty-Six: The Demon Domination Cult
Ruoxi was busy detoxifying, annoyed that this person was not interested, so he came to disturb at this time.
With one free hand, he pulled out the purple mang, and blocked the sword with his backhand.
Spit out poisonous blood, and tried the pulse again, although the residual poison is not clear, but fortunately, there is no danger to life now.
Ruoxi then freed up his efforts and looked at the person behind him.
A man and a woman, this man is dressed in a white robe, holding a sword in his hand, and his clothes are not moving in the mountain wind, obviously with deep internal strength. I'm afraid there is only one person who has appeared in this place.
The woman beside him, coarse linen clothes, with vicissitudes of life, and disordered breath, did not look like a person who practiced martial arts. With an anxious look on her face, she stared at the child, could it be the mother of the child?
As if knowing Ruoxi's suspicions, this little doll turned slowly, and sure enough, shouted at the woman.
Ignoring the man's resistance, the woman rushed over and took the child into her arms.
"This little doll has been poisoned by snakes, and the residual poison has not been cleared, so it's better not to touch him." Ruoxi kindly reminded him.
"Who are you?" The man in white asked.
"You're the leader of the Demon Domination Sect, aren't you?"
As expected, he was the leader of the Demon Control Sect, Chu Haochu.
As soon as everyone was moved to the bottom of the cliff, before they could settle down, Xiao Bao Niang hurriedly ran over and cried, saying that Xiao Bao was gone.
The two estimated that Xiaobao was playful when he came, and they were separated from them. I came the same way to find it, but I didn't want to see Ruoxi, so I shot it in a hurry.
Seeing that Chu Haochu's hand holding the sword gradually tightened, ready to strike at any time, Ruoxi took the initiative to put down the sword in his hand.
"I have no ill will. The little doll has not cleared the remaining poison, and it needs to be forced out with internal force, otherwise it will be life-threatening, if you don't want him to die, I suggest that you detoxify him first. ”
At this time, if she is in a group with those martial arts people, then he is killing himself.
Ruoxi didn't say anything, just waiting for Chu Haochu to make his own choice.
Chu Haochu didn't let Ruoxi wait long, so he sat cross-legged behind Xiaobao.
Chu Haochu has been uninhibited in his life, and he has always acted freely. Today's situation is also his own choice. If he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and let Xiaobao die in front of him, he is afraid that he will feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Moreover, he believed that Ling Ruoxi had no malicious intent.
"Okay, Aunt Wang, you take Xiaobao back first, let him sleep well and be fine."
After sending the mother and son, only Ruoxi and Haochu were left.
"I'm with the Demon Sect Leader Chu Haochu, dare to ask the girl?"
"Sect Master Chu, don't panic, I'm not from the martial arts. I just passed by here and heard that the disaster relief money was lost, so I was curious and came here to find out. ”
Not a martial arts person? But Ruoxi's sword that just defended him was profound, and it was not under him.
Sword?
Chu Haochu's gaze moved downward, and his pupils shook.
Sure enough, it was a purple mang.
Since Ling Ruoxi intended to hide his identity, Chu Haochu did not intend to reveal it.
"What does the girl want to know?"
"It's nothing, I'm very tired all the way, I don't know if I can go to your place to ask for a glass of water."
"Please."
Under this cliff, there is really a cave.
The land is flat, the houses are like houses, and most of them are old and weak, women and children; The boy is mischievous and frolicking.
"Hehe, the world has received that the Demon Control Sect is a cult. But they never imagined that this cult would be composed of a group of old and weak women and children. Seeing this, Ruoxi concluded that this batch of disaster relief funds was definitely not stolen by Chu Haochu.
With these women and children, he couldn't transport 100,000 taels of silver from the heavily guarded Zuofu.
"These people have lost their loved ones, or have been abandoned by their husbands, or have been oppressed by the government, in short, they have their own suffering, and it is difficult for them to survive. I took them back to Moye Mountain. ”
"I wanted to find a pure land to escape the world, but I didn't want to become a cult that everyone would be punished for."
Ruoxi probably understands why the outside world will rumor that the Demon Control Sect will burn, kill and loot, and the old and young women and children will not let go. These people couldn't survive in the world, so they hid in this Moye Mountain. The government and family can't find it, and this black cauldron can only be carried by the Demon Sect.
Chu Haochu's parents died when he was young.
If it weren't for the care of the villagers, Chu Haochu would have died in Huangquan long ago. Unexpectedly, there was a locust plague in my hometown that year, and there was no harvest of grains, and the villagers starved to death, and those who fled fled.
Instead of waiting for death in the village, it is better to go out and find a way to live,
In this way, Chu Haochu left his hometown. But he didn't want to be physically exhausted, so he fainted outside Yongzhou City.
It was also a coincidence that the hermit master who lived in seclusion in Moye Mountain at that time was a dustless Taoist, and when he came down the mountain, he happened to meet the unconscious Chu Haochu, so he brought him back to Moye Mountain, raised him, and taught him martial arts.
After the death of the Dustless Dao Immortal, Chu Haochu stayed in this Moye Mountain to help the poor people around. Slowly, a scale was formed. It's the so-called Demon Domination Cult.
"I was young and miserable, and if I hadn't been adopted by my master, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago."
It is precisely because of this that Chu Haochu will help these suffering people and give them a way to live.
The two walked all the way, and many villagers greeted them cordially, "Yo, Haochu, bring the guests back!" ”
"Haochu, I'll bring it home for dinner later."
It can be seen that Chu Haochu is very familiar with these villagers.
"Come in." Take people to the small bamboo hut where they live, "the conditions are simple, and the hospitality is not considerate." If it weren't for these ordinary people, it would be inconvenient, how could these martial arts righteous paths really think they could withstand me? ”
"Aren't you afraid that I'm uneasy and kind?"
"Will General Ling?" Chu Haochu looked at Ruoxi and said.
Ruoxi smiled knowingly, "When did you guess?" ”
"I don't care about the world anymore, I have heard of the prestige of Zimang, a dignified first-class sword, this way over was actually used by you to weed and open the way, if this sword has a spirit, don't be sad."
The two looked at each other and smiled, "The sword is used by people, why be sad." ”
Since Chu Haochu had already guessed his identity, Ruoxi didn't hide it, and simply opened the skylight and said something.
"I toured south with the holy driver, and I heard that you stole 100,000 taels of disaster relief silver from Zuo Zhikui. I thought something was wrong, so I came to investigate. ”
"No need." Ruoxi didn't expect that Haochu would refuse so refreshingly, "I'm used to idle clouds and wild cranes, and I don't want to have anything to do with the imperial court." ”
"General Ling, please go back."
Chu Haochu seemed to have a deep resistance to the imperial court. Ruoxi didn't want to force him.
"Okay, Sect Master Chu take care."
Since it has been determined that the disaster relief money was not stolen by Chu Haochu, then there is really something wrong with this Zuo Zhikui.
Next, it's time to check this Zuo Zhikui.
Before the two could separate, the people who Chu Haochu arranged outside broke in in a panic.
"Oh no, no, those people came in."
What the? This place is so hidden, he cut off the vines, how did they get in?
Ruoxi also felt strange, Chu Haochu didn't clean up the traces, she erased them, how could she be discovered?
In fact, as early as Ruoxi just entered Moye Mountain, he was followed.
Zuo Zhikui had already arranged for someone to watch at Moye Mountain. It's also strange that this person was lucky, and when he saw that Ruoxi was beautiful, he had evil thoughts in his heart, so he followed.
Unexpectedly, he accidentally discovered Chu Haochu's hiding place.
This little minion, although his martial arts are not in the stream, but his tracking skills are really good, Ruoxi didn't even notice it.
Now is not the time to think about why.
Chu Haochu calmly ordered.
"The formation we laid can still resist for a while, Uncle Wang, you quickly take everyone to the hole in the back to hide, no matter what happens, don't come out."
"Remember to push the stone down and cover it up. Don't come out. ”
"General Ling, you should go with you. This is a matter of martial arts, and you are afraid of falling into people's hands if you interfere. The safety of these people will be entrusted to you. ”
"Jingle Bell Jingle Bell" The eager bell rang, and someone broke through.
"Hurry up, hurry up."
"Nope." Uncle Wang broke free of Chu Haochu's hand pushing them, "Haochu, you have done enough for us, we can't drag you down any longer, let's go out and tell them the truth." ”
"Yes, if we tell them the truth, they won't embarrass us." Before, they were too selfish, and they kept thinking about cutting off contact with their old lives, and they didn't want to be known that they were here, but now they can't drag Haochu down.
"Folks!" Ruoxi fired the signal flares on his body while reassuring the people, "Folks, even if you go out to explain, they won't believe it." It's just a sacrifice in vain. ”
"That's right, you guys go quickly. I'm going to be distracted to protect you if I stay here. ”
I really didn't expect that after just meeting for a meal, the two of them would have to fight side by side.
"General Ling, it's too late to leave now."
Looking at the people who slowly surrounded him, Ruoxi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Impossible." ”
"Chu Haochu, you established a demon sect, burned, killed and looted, harmed the people, and stole disaster relief money, and your crime should be punished. The leader of this alliance led his fellow martial artists to defeat your demon sect today! ”
Chu Haochu sneered, what a well-dressed beast!
The ice cracked out of its sheath, revealing its edge.
Chu Haochu, a half-secluded person, could recognize her by Zimang, and Ruoxi simply snatched an enemy's blade to kill the enemy. The two people supported each other and cooperated with each other, and they had a very tacit understanding.
Ruoxi sent out a signal flare early. The surrounding guards on call followed the trail, and the tide of battle turned in an instant.
Zuo Zhikui and others saw that the teacher was too bad and fled.
"Humph! This Chu Haochu is really a cult leader, and those people under him are all outlaws. ”
"yes, and they make weird moves, they only attack and don't defend."
In fact, this Demon Control Sect is empty, except for Chu Haochu alone, the rest are just some old and weak women and children. Ruoxi and the secret guard helped each other, making outsiders mistakenly think that it was a group of demons, but it confirmed the name of Chu Haochu's demon sect.
"Thank you General Ling for your help today." If Chu Haochu was alone, it would be difficult to protect these people in the face of the martial arts people no matter what.
"Sect Master Chu is polite. Ruoxi still has a question, I wonder if the sect leader can answer Ruoxi's questions? ”
"This batch of disaster relief funds was not stolen by the Chu Sect Master, why did Zuo Zhikui insist that it was your sect's doing?"
