Jiangyin is located in the south, east of the Han River, west of the peaks, green mountains and green water around its periphery, and because of the perennial rain, the spirit of the grass and trees is more prosperous, so over time it has raised a moist and mild Qingming weather, even in winter here is as warm as spring, not to mention like the overnight wind and snow howling in other places, even the ice slag has never knotted a little over the years, it is really a blessed land. But at this moment, the black-clothed man who had rushed back from outside the city overnight was sitting on the head of the city, but he was a little stunned, because it was such a famous and plastered city, and now it was covered with a layer of light, as if the inexplicable night fog last night did not dissipate in the morning light, but turned into condensation, fell on the roof pavement, and formed frost.

Will there be frost in Jiangyin? The man in black twisted up a few frost flowers, and the frost felt the warmth of his palm, which melted into water in an instant, and dripped down his fingers on the intact frost chips on the ground, blurring a puddle of water, and then quickly condensed into ice, and occasionally the wind blew, and the thin ice that had just formed was not very hard was cracked again, making a slight clicking sound, and in the blink of an eye, it became a grain of frost residue again. He gently brushed away the water marks on his hands, raised his head and looked down at everything in the city, as if he wanted to see something else through the frost all over the city with his own eyes, but when he looked up, it was all white, and he really couldn't see anything.

"Sell cooking cakes...... Cooker ......"

At the gate of the city, there was a fifty or sixty-year-old man who set up a stall and sold it, and there was no one on the street in the early morning, and the roadside shops had not yet opened, and there was a quiet and depressed image all around, only the old man's flat shoulder was steaming white, bringing a new day's fireworks to the whole city. The man in black turned his head and glanced at Lao Suo lightly, no longer looked at the city, and fell from the city with a slight turn, and the city was still empty when Lao Suo turned his head to look at this side.

"Alas, this damn weather, I'm afraid that something bad is going to happen, a bad omen that will fall in advance, right?" The old man looked up at the sky with his hands, and there was a faint light in his cloudy eyes, but it was blurred because he was too old, and he didn't know what he muttered to himself, and finally sighed and went to his own business.

After the man in black landed, he calmly turned into an alley next to him, took off his black clothes silently, and the light blue robe he wore in it was revealed, and half of the black hair wrapped in the turban was instantly scattered, meticulously hanging on his shoulders and back, and his delicate face did not have the fatigue and dust of running around all night, but was calm like the water surface that did not fluctuate, and the man in black who was still full of cold air just now seemed to have become a scholar again. The scholar patted the placket, flattened the folds on the sleeves and hem, and the handsome eyebrows only bent slightly to give people a smile with a slight smile, a sense of stability, he slowly raised his eyes, and in order to take a look at the black clothes he had withdrawn, he walked outside with a scholarly style, but as soon as one foot stepped out, he was startled by a sudden rush to drink.

"Go, go, go, what are you squeezing here, you skinny boy, don't you see the uncle here?

The blue-clothed scholar was stunned for a moment, then stopped and followed the prestige, only to see a group of monks dressed in Fuyun flowing robes standing in front of a simple medical hall not far from the city gate. At this time, one of the most imposing leaders was brandishing the snow sword in his hand, scolding and scolding while smashing his head, and in the circle of six or seven fox friends and dog friends behind him, a thin and thin figure was standing weakly, and the scholar looked at it, and saw through the crowd that although the figure was not very strong and tough, but the figure was tall, coupled with the already thin, even more weak, to say that it was simply thin like a hemp pole, as if a gust of wind could blow him off at the waist. The man was still wearing a snow-white fox fur, now it was the season when the flowers were full of flowers, even if there was a vision in the city and frost, but it was not cold to the point of withering grass and trees, even the willows on the side of the road were still green, but this man had already put on a fox fur, the wide fur collar tightly covered his neck, the big hood that could hold two heads was buckled on his head, and only half of his face was exposed on the whole body, at first glance it didn't look like he was wearing a fox fur, but more like he was put into a fox fur. His face is unusually pale, almost blending with the fox fur, the two strands of long hair hanging down the side of his face fall from the hood, and they are also as white as snow, the whole person is all white except for the eyes, white ** and solemn, just like the frost in the city, pure and beautiful, it even makes people feel that they are born noble and unclean, it seems to be the only one in heaven and earth to abandon the dirty, itself is completely pure and a kind of beauty, no reason, no reason, it can give people this feeling, very magical, right? But this is the case, the scholar felt this way when he saw the snow-white man for the first time, and he was a little discouraged for no reason, because he was afraid that any touch of his own might tarnish this holiness, and as for why he had such a subtle feeling in such an ordinary passerby, he himself did not know, it seemed that it was just a knee-jerk reaction.

The snow-white man staggered to stand firm, put his right hand into a fist and coughed lightly twice, then raised his head slightly, and said in a dumb voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't see you, or there was a collision, if that's the case, Xiao Ke is here to apologize, but this position is ...... It is indeed Xiao Ke who can be in line first, and please return the position, cough cough, let Xiao Ke go in to see a doctor. ”

As soon as he looked up, everyone saw his face again, only to see that his cheeks were very thin, his two cheekbones protruded there like two hills, the whole face seemed to have only a layer of skin wrapped in bones, his eyes were dull, the hand that hid his lips was like a dry branch, the bones were layered and sharp, and there was always a thick phlegm stuck in his throat. This is undoubtedly a terminally ill dying man!

The disciple of the Qin clan who had threatened him before was startled at first when he saw this, and only after coming back to his senses did he purse his lips and said with a smile: "If you are still cured like this? Who can cure you well? If you want me to say that you are sick like this, just go home and wait for death, and come out to toss something, anyway, it will not be cured, it will be a drag on the family in vain, and it will delay the treatment of others, it is better to give us the position, and you will accumulate some yin virtue! If you can make it convenient for the masters, you can be regarded as a well-deserved death! Hahaha......

The fox friends around him looked at each other and laughed after hearing this, obviously only taking this half-dead sick seedling as a joke, and didn't take it to heart at all, pointing at the snow-white man, laughing and whispering to each other, all of them looked gloating.

The snow-white man was not angry, but pursed his lips slightly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Xiao Ke's illness is indeed not light, but no matter how serious the illness is, it can be treated. ”

Seeing that he still dared to fight back, the blue-clothed monk's face also changed, and he was a little annoyed: "Yo he! Why do you still reason with my uncle, what does this mean? Okay, let you go, you won't go, since you don't listen to Jin Yu's good words, then don't blame the uncle, I will teach you what it means to know the current affairs!"

The monk rolled up his sleeves, and it was a punch, but the snow-white man didn't have time to dodge, he stood in place and was punched, and fell on the spot on a stall next to him, and the smashed things were spilled on the ground, and the man was lying on the ground and grabbed his collar and coughed violently, and struggled several times without getting up.

Seeing this, the monk smiled proudly, as if he was extremely satisfied with the effect in front of him, and walked slowly in front of the snow-white man, stepped on the man's white sleeve, squatted down and patted the man's face, and said with oblique eyes: "How about it?

The snow-white man did not know whether he was afraid of the monk's fierce face, or because of the violent cough that made him unable to turn his head, he did not look directly at the monk, but while trying to stabilize the cough, he glanced at the monk with his residual eyes, and finally said a few words intermittently, the monk was really uncomfortable to see him look like he was going to die, and now he finally spoke, and he was also excited, and hurried to listen to it, thinking that this time he could always hear the answer that satisfied him, right? But who knew that in the end he heard these words.

"Xiao Ke...... Really...... Can't let it. ”

The monk was immediately stunned, he really didn't expect that this weak sick seedling like a chicken in front of him was still quite tough, and he could still say this kind of thing after this, he had only heard that he was not afraid of death, but he didn't expect to see one today, the monk glared, and drank angrily: "I don't know what is dead or alive!" After speaking, he raised his foot that stepped on the man's sleeve, turned to the man's hand, and was about to step on it!

The onlookers on the street had already gathered, but no one came out to stop the scene in front of them, and there were many people who were full of anger or sympathy or hatred or helplessness in their eyes, but they were only secretly angry for a while, after all, the group of people in front of them looked like the disciples of the Great Sect of the Immortal Sect, where could these ordinary people afford to provoke them? If it caused trouble, the family would not think about it. The world is like this, when it is not about oneself, everyone has a three-point bodhisattva heart, drawing a sword to help each other and doing a righteous and righteous manner, but once the disaster is in trouble, who cares about the fucking sympathy, and it is the right thing to protect oneself.

It is because of the current crowds of people that have gathered one after another, and the street has long been dark, and the snow-white man is actually a person who can count on the central complaint, and he may not be able to find it, perhaps he himself knows that there is no hope, so he has not looked up from beginning to end, but has kept his head down, calmly surprising.

The monk's feet had already stepped down, and the man was still lying quietly on the ground, not even dodging, as if he had not even thought of hiding. A lamb to the slaughter who gave up his resistance - so thought to everyone. But when the foot was about to fall into the man's hand, everyone felt a flower in front of them, and when they opened their eyes again, the man was no longer in the circle.

"As an immortal cultivator, he actually bullied the unarmed people, and he was ashamed. Suddenly, someone whispered coldly in his ear.

The monks turned back in surprise, only to see a blue-clothed scholar holding a snow-white man about two feet away from the crowd, looking at them indifferently.

There are so many people who don't even see how he came and went just now.

The people who watched the excitement were often very sensitive to smell, and they did not dare to linger anymore when they had already sensed the dangerous atmosphere, and instantly dispersed as quickly as possible, and fled from this place of right and wrong.

Seeing this, the blue-clothed monk, who couldn't strike a blow, felt that he couldn't hold his face, and he was furious, twisted his eyebrows and shouted: "What kind of person is nosy!"

The blue-clothed scholar moved like a wind when he made his hand, but after he put it away, he was as quiet as a virgin, his left hand was behind the man's back, and his right hand was slightly bent in front of him, although his expression was cold when he looked at them, but he maintained a habit when he spoke, first smiled gently, and then bowed his head and saluted: "I am just a passer-by, and I saw that this friend was in a difficult situation, so I came to the rescue." ”

"Come to the rescue? What a big breath! There are not many heroes who dare to take care of our Fengling Qin clan's idle affairs these days, if you have the courage, report your name, and let me see where it is sacred!"

When he said the word "hero", there was unspeakable sarcasm in his tone.

The blue-clothed scholar lowered his eyes slightly, and said humbly: "The hero doesn't dare to be, it's just a casual cultivation under the fence, and his name is not worth mentioning." ”

Hearing that this person was just a casual cultivator, the blue-clothed monk became even more proud, since he was a casual cultivator, he didn't even have a family sect, how could he be compared with them, you must know that the Qin family was one of the five great families!

With his shout, a dozen or so scoundrels rushed up, drawing their swords viciously and slashing violently, but their swords were only halfway out and they were shocked to find that they couldn't pull them out, and the sword that was usually retracted freely now seemed to grow in the scabbard, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't pull it out a bit, and what made them even more alarmed was that not only could not pull out the sword, but they couldn't even insert it back. Just when they were in doubt, the blue-clothed scholar who had been standing in place without moving had his thin lips slightly hooked, and gently took a step forward, only this step instantly shuttled between the monks, only to see his hands waving quickly in the air, countless afterimages blurred layer by layer, and he couldn't see what he was beating, but there was one thing that was particularly amazing, that is, such a gaffe action was made on him and was particularly elegant and good-looking, like a frightening dance, not only tactful and coordinated, but also not lacking in rigidity and violence, the balance between rigidity and softness was just right, and every bit was not leaked。

After a few simple moves, he suddenly stopped, and by this time he had six or seven more thick iron swords in his hand, and when he looked at them, the owners of these swords were lying on the ground, babbling and wailing over their arms and legs. The scoundrels who were suddenly shocked seemed to finally realize that this was a hard stubble that was not easy to mess with, and when they saw that even the weapons had been snatched, they all looked at each other, couldn't say a word, and were stunned for a long time, and finally did not hit the swollen face and became fat, and immediately ran away with a crawl, and disappeared at the end of the long street in the blink of an eye.

The blue-clothed scholar didn't seem to expect them to run so fast, his always indifferent expression froze for a moment, he looked down at the sword in his hand, raised it slightly and handed it to him, and muttered a little: "Your sword...... Haven't taken it yet. ”

Seeing that the person had run away, the scholar pursed his lips and didn't chase after him, but turned around and walked slowly towards the snow-white man, helped him, and asked softly, "Is Mr. okay?"

The blue-clothed scholar rescued the man at the time of the crisis just now, and grabbed the clothes, so he didn't feel anything, but now his hand was really on the man's arm, and he felt a piercing chill climb up his arm just by touching it, piercing the bone marrow, and the whole person instantly fell into an ice cave, and couldn't help but shiver, which made the scholar feel shocked. Just touching it can send out such a strong cold, even a strong body like him can't help but say cold, this person as the source of this cold, I don't know how many times stronger the cold in the body, so he can still live, it's really a miracle.

The snow-white man just coughed a few times without pain, bowed slightly, and pulled out his hand without a trace while smiling lightly: "It's okay, ** I'm sick, I'll be fine in a while, but it's troublesome for the son to relieve me, I'm really embarrassed." ”

The blue-clothed scholar didn't care much, and said indifferently: "It's just a gesture, Mr. doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

The snow-white man raised his head and glanced at the blue-clothed scholar carefully, as if he was a little hesitant, and after hesitating for a moment, he still asked tentatively: "Looking at Gongzi's skills just now, he must also be from the Xianmen, so why do you want to offend my fellow Daoists for someone I don't know?" If they take revenge...... Childe, aren't you going to be able to escape?" he seemed to be meeting such a person who took the initiative to help others unconditionally for the first time in his life, and his face was full of incomprehension, as if this was something that could not happen at all.

The blue-clothed scholar smiled and said: "Although I am indeed a member of the Xianmen, I am not from the same sect as them, so it doesn't matter if I am offended, not to mention that this matter is their fault, and it is still necessary to distinguish between right and wrong, if they really want to retaliate, they can come to me, so it is extremely appropriate." ”

Hearing this, the snow-white man was a little more amazed on his face: "The son is very upright." ”

The blue-clothed scholar smiled more briskly: "Didn't Mr. just say it himself? Human life is not valuable or cheap, and everyone has the right to live." This sentence is quite meaningful, but I am not the only one who is downright. ”

The snow-white man was suddenly stunned after hearing this, a strange brilliance flashed in his eyes, he looked at the scholar for a long time, as if he was thinking about something, after a long silence, he laughed "heh": "A casual sentence made the son laugh." ”

The blue-clothed scholar shook his head very seriously, his gaze went over the man, and fell on the bustling pedestrians on the street. All beings are equal, there is no distinction between high and low human life, everyone has the right to live well, whether it is a mayfly who dies in the twilight of life or a human race who lives for a hundred years, these are dogs for the vast world, and there is no difference, so our life is not more noble than other creatures in this world, and there is naturally no reason between people who should be bullied by nature, and bullying should not be, let alone life and death. People in the world are confined to the three poisons of greed, hatred, and ignorance, and they are always unable to get rid of the poison of fame, fortune and status, so that they give up their original pure state of mind and fall into this muddy world quagmire that is falling deeper and deeper, so they have to disturb themselves in vain. He sighed, "What a pity." ”

The snow-white man didn't seem to expect that the scholar in front of him would have such a deep feeling for what he said casually, and unexpectedly, there was a little more exploration in his eyes, and his expression changed after listening to it, and he lowered his head for a moment, and suddenly laughed: "This explanation is very interesting." ”

The blue-clothed scholar suddenly came back to his senses, and suddenly realized that he had just said too much, and hurriedly smiled apologetically: "Just now because of Mr.'s words, I suddenly felt a sudden feeling, and I unconsciously lost my temper. ”

The snow-white man's expression was a little strange when he looked at him, the corners of his mouth had an arc that seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were also deep and flickering, I didn't know what he was thinking, stared at him for a long time, and suddenly said for no reason: "Childe's heart is pure and kind, it is really different, but I don't know if this heart can bring good luck to Childe in this turbid world." He said this in a rather subtle tone, not appreciative, but a little disapproving and sarcastic.

The blue-clothed scholar heard the completely different attitude in the man's tone from before, and was immediately stunned, not knowing what the man meant, so he had to ask tentatively: "Don't you think that good people will be rewarded in the end?"

The strange look in the snow-white man's eyes had turned into a smile when he looked up, and his attitude changed abruptly in his words: "I think so, of course I think so, cough cough cough ......"

I don't know if he laughed too quickly, he suddenly coughed, this cough seemed to be unstoppable, his shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and his body swayed in the breeze, making people can't help but feel that he was about to be blown down by this breeze.

The blue-clothed scholar became more and more confused and even more stunned.

"Is it okay, sir?"

The snow-white man coughed for a long time before he got a little better, and he was finally able to speak in one breath, he waved his hand lightly, and said weakly: "I've been sick for many years, I'm used to it, speaking of which, I'm afraid that my illness seems to outsiders to think that I don't have a few days to live, but only I know that this disease is actually just looking serious, and I can't die for a while, so it's okay, don't worry." The man's words were open-minded, and he didn't seem to be worried about his illness at all, as if it was just an ordinary wind and cold, and there was a detachment that saw through life and death in his bearing.

He pulled his arm out of the scholar's hand again, nodded slightly, and said, "Ahem...... I have to go in to see a doctor in the next place, and I really can't stand the pain of this wind and frost for too long, I'm afraid I have to leave first, and I hope that the son will not blame. Today's relief is recorded below, and he will repay it if he has a fate. ”

The blue-clothed scholar naturally didn't expect the person in front of him to repay him in the future, just meeting in Pingshui, the sea of people is vast, how can there be a chance to see him again in the future? The so-called goodbye is just a politeness at the time of separation. He turned his head and glanced at the medical hall, he wanted to ask what kind of disease he had, even his appearance would have such a big impact, he also grew up in the Xuanmen sect since he was a child, although he didn't dare to say how knowledgeable he was, but he thought he was knowledgeable, but he had never seen such a serious illness, to be honest, he was also very curious about it, and wanted to ask about it carefully, but after thinking about it, it is always not good to reveal people's privacy, not to mention the disease, if you ask about the taboos of others, isn't it rude? Besides, they don't know each other, just strangers they met by chance on the street, and they have been delaying people for a long time before, so they should not trespass again, so they covered their minds and only bowed their heads and said: "It's a lot of words, Mr. take care of your body, and you have something to do next, so I say goodbye." ”

The snow-white man made a wave, turned to leave, and when he stepped on the steps, a breeze rushed to his face, blowing his silver hair scattered on the sideburns, he suddenly stopped, paused for a while, turned around and said: "Childe thinks that the way of life lies in purity, which is the purest character that ordinary people can hardly reach, it is very rare, it should be respected and respected, and even proud, but I have a question: If you and I change places, under the circumstances just now, what will Childe think?" The snow-white man stood on the steps and looked at the scholar lightly, as if he only asked this sentence for himself, and didn't care about the scholar's answer, he only smiled, and before the scholar could respond, he turned around and continued to walk the steps, and there seemed to be a slight sigh in the ethereal wind: "Now in this world, I haven't met such a person for a long time." This sentence seems to be happy but not happy, it seems to be ridiculed but not ridiculed, and it seems to be indignant.

The scholar stood silently in place, chewing on the taste, the snow-white man's question did not contain any feelings, just simply asked him what he would think in that situation, but the more he did not have a tone to guide, the more people hesitated, as if he did not have the confidence to say any answer. As for the deep meaning of this question, whether it is a mockery of the declining world and the unancient people's hearts, and still insisting on compassion for the common people is just adding irony, or whether it is like-minded with scholars and raising a theory, who knows.

The blue-clothed scholar stood silently facing the door of the medical hall for a long time, suddenly smiled, said nothing, turned around and left. The two tacitly parted ways, and the two had no argument.

This walk, until the market disappeared, stopped leisurely in front of a quaint and simple inn on the corner of the street. The inn is located in a remote location, the door is dilapidated, and even the signboard hanging on the door frame has been blurred, obviously it is a small inn that can only be used by poor people with weak backgrounds, and the store has no profit, so it is difficult to renovate and renovate, so it has to barely make a living, so it is neither conspicuous nor invited.

Stepping in, the inn was silent, those who sat in the lobby in the past and shouted noisy guests did not have one today, the upstairs guest room is also surprisingly quiet, it seems that no one lives on it at all, if there are no guests, it is reasonable to say that the inn is in poor condition, but how can even Xiao Er not wait for guests at the counter, even the boss does not seem to be there, the whole lobby is empty, the silence is weird.

But the blue-clothed scholar didn't seem to care at all, calmly walked through the lobby, and entered the inner hall that the boss and his friends could enter, and when he entered, he heard a long-lost noise, but why did he sound so strange about this noise?

He continued to walk inside, and it was not until he lifted the curtain and looked inside that he finally realized why it was strange, and he stayed where he was, a little crying and laughing.

I saw a two-meter-square mahogany table in the center of the inner hall, and a few benches that could be seen at a glance were dragged in from the outside and were crooked and horizontal next to the table, and five or six tall and mighty men were lying on the table staring at something intently, and there were words in their mouths, and they didn't even notice that someone came in。

"Four points! Big! I won! Give money, give money!"

At this time, he was slamming the table excitedly, jumping up and down to collect cashiers, and the person who was grinning like a fool was naturally Shangguan Yu's personal little follower Chi Zhan.

In the melee in Cangshan the day before yesterday, in order to allow the major sects to retreat safely, Shangguan Yu broke off alone, dragging Huang Quan and Yi Lin, but because of this, he didn't have time to escape before the explosion, and no one saw him come out until the moment of the explosion, and now he doesn't know if he has been blown up and his bones are gone, and this person who has the closest relationship with Shangguan Yu should be the most anxious person, but he is ...... at this moment Gambling?!

The blue-clothed scholar sighed helplessly, shook his head and walked in, and said with a headache: "On this day and night, you shouldn't be betting on dice, right?"

Chi Zhan heard the voice of the blue-clothed scholar, and finally took the time to lift his head off the gambling table, seeing that he was coming, he hurriedly greeted him, but the smile on the corner of his mouth and the action of collecting money did not stop at all: "Jin Yuan, are you back?" Hurry up, sit down and rest and rest, hard work, hard work." As he spoke, he kicked away his playmate next to him, dragged the stool that fell to the ground, and handed it to Jin Yuan, "It's only been a short gamble, it's just a short while, really." ”

Chi Zhan replied weakly while accompanying the smiling face, the flattering smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more embarrassing, and finally he seemed to feel that he couldn't even speak, so he had to quickly change the topic: "You entered the city early in the morning, why did you arrive at this time?" My people saw you at the city gate, and he came back at the same time as you, and he gambled with me...... After drinking a cup of tea, you are too slow. ”

Jin Yuan glanced at the table that was covered with a layer of dice, broken silver and various personal belongings used as collateral by Chi Zhan, helped his forehead, silently walked to a clean table next to him, and poured himself a cup of tea: "I encountered an injustice on the way, so I helped out, so it was late." ”

After hearing this, Chi Zhan smiled: "Well, it turns out that I was upset again, who is the person I saved this time? The beggar on the side of the road or the flower girl? Alas, you are willing to take care of this kind of trivial matter, if it were me, I didn't even bother to look at it, and I couldn't even be busy with my own affairs, who still had the heart to care about them? You, you are too nosy, and I don't know where you are a big man, where do you come from so many women's kindness, and you are not afraid of trouble." ”

Jin Yuan didn't care about Chi Zhan's teasing, and didn't even bother to argue with him about the meaning of the word "woman's benevolence", just drank tea and said to himself: "Yes, it is because of the kindness of my woman that I can make your peak master, who is still unknown to life, have some news, now that I think about it, he is not my peak master, why am I in a hurry? It's really too much nosy, come and come, I'll also play, but I have to relax." As he spoke, he went to grab the dice in the hands of the five or six big men, and squeezed a seat to sit down, looking at this posture, he really planned to have a few good plays.

As soon as Chi Zhan heard the news that he had Shangguan Yu, he immediately perked up, rushed forward in two steps and snatched the dice out of Jin Yuan's hand, his eyes lit up and said, "You said that you found out the news of the peak master?

He asked what the situation was, not whether it was life or death.

Jin Yuan just saw Chi Zhan's attitude and joked, so he followed his words and joked, and now seeing that he asked seriously, and he also knew the importance of the situation, he didn't dare to sell it anymore, and told him what he heard and saw last night straightforwardly.

Ji Zhan fell silent after hearing this, and did not speak for a long time.

Jin Yuan's expression became serious: "If you want to find Shangguan, following those 100,000 evil ghosts is the best opportunity, listening to the conversation between the remnants, Shangguan is seriously injured at this time, and he doesn't even have the strength to get out of Cangshan, if he really encounters those 100,000 evil ghosts, I'm afraid it will be more than lucky, and if he misses this opportunity, he may ......."

Chi Zhan still didn't speak, his fingers tapped on the window lattice, his eyes stared at the frost eaves outside without focus, it seemed to be hollow but there seemed to be a faint light flickering, and he couldn't distinguish the depth, and after a while, he exhaled softly: "It's a little troublesome." ”

Jin Yuan paused: "What's the matter? You can't solve those 100,000 evil ghosts?"

Chi Zhan turned his head and opened his mouth, as if he had something to say, but he still didn't say it after all, he pondered for a moment and nodded: "Sort of." ”

This time Jin Yuan was really puzzled, although 100,000 evil ghosts sounded quite terrifying, but that was only for ordinary immortal sects, Qingmiao Peak really shouldn't be able to solve it, it was the head of the immortal sect ranked among the three peaks of the four islands! Even if one person kills ten, then those people under him are enough, and this is to save their peak master, it stands to reason that the combat power should be increased, why do you say that it can't be solved?

"Is 100,000 evil ghosts tricky?

Chi Zhan raised his eyebrows: "Of course you can, what kind of bullshit 100,000 evil ghosts, the name is bluffing, in fact, the number is more headache, it is indeed terrifying to fight alone, put me cold, but when it comes to collective combat, our Qingmiao Peak doesn't take it seriously at all!

Jin Yuan said blankly: "Then why do you still say trouble?"

When Chi Zhan heard this, he suddenly choked on his chest with a breath raised high, and he couldn't go up or down, and struggled for a long time with his cheeks puffed out, as if he wanted to justify something, but in the end he seemed to find that he really had nothing to justify, so he had to cough dryly, silently turned his head away from Jin Yuan's gaze, swallowed and salivaed: "Because, they are no longer here now." ”

Jin Yuan thought he had misheard: "What did you say?

Chi Zhan repeated it very seriously: "I said, Qingmiao Peak has all withdrawn now, and I sent them all back to Yanlan last night, and now there are only a few of us left here." ”

“！！！”

Jin Yuan was really stunned this time, and then he knew why his people didn't stop him when Huang Quan left last night, and he was still thinking that it might be because Chi Zhan also knew that there were people with afterimages in the city, and even if he stopped him, he might not be able to stop it, so he simply didn't move and didn't consume in vain, but now it seems that he thinks too much about himself, and people don't stop because there is no one to send at all! He was just about to open his mouth to ask Chi Zhan why he removed people at this juncture, which was completely unreasonable! Chi Zhan seemed to have expected him to ask such a question, and preemptively explained: "I know what you want to ask, I can only say that it is not me who bets, and the chips are naturally not where I want to put them, don't think that I have more rights, even if I can dispatch more people, Qing Miao Feng will only obey that one master in the end." ”

Jin Yuan immediately heard the sound of these words, and said in amazement: "What do you mean......"

Chi Zhan smiled and shook his head at him: "The peak master must be saved, but not now, now none of us can save him." ”

Jin Yuan: "Why?"

Chi Zhan said lightly: "Because now the inside of Cangshan is the same as the outside, but the inside is not covered with frost, but a layer of green mang, which is also highly poisonous." There were also many people from the hundred families of Xianmen who read the grace of the peak lord and helped them go in to find the peak master, but all the people who went in were poisoned, and they couldn't be saved, and even the people of the Shangguan family were forced to withdraw, and now they are still wandering at the foot of the mountain, and they can't get in. Naturally, I can't get in. I have a weak heart. ”

After hearing this, Jin Yuan unexpectedly did not panic at all, but was extremely calm, perhaps because compared to the news that Chi Zhan himself had evacuated the people just now, the current news is really normal, at this moment, there was a loud noise outside the curtain, as if something had been thrown in from outside, everyone was shocked, and they didn't have time to continue talking, they looked at each other and hurriedly rushed out.

When I went out, I saw five monks wearing Fuyun flowing robes lying on the ground in the center of the hall, all of whom were lying on the ground motionless face down, and the door that had been closed by Jin Yuan was open at this time, and a few light winds blew, rolling in a lot of frost.

Jin Yuan stepped forward and opened the few people, but his eyes lit up after seeing their faces clearly, these people were clearly the Qin monks who were embarrassed by the sick and weak gentleman on the street just now, one of them was counted as one, and they were all lying here, and none of them were gone. He immediately probed their necks, and found that they were exhausted, and their bodies were still warm, and they must have just died. They were just fine, but why did they die in the blink of an eye? Who killed them? And why did you throw them here?

Jin Yuan carefully examined them again, and did not find any traces of external injuries and shocks by spiritual power, everything was normal, but their people were indeed dead, how did they die?

Jin Yuan rubbed his chin with one hand, he was really puzzled, and stared at their bodies several times, but when his eyes moved to their hearts again, a strange color suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he tentatively stretched out his hand to their hearts, wanting to peel off his clothes and probe in, but at the last moment he was stopped by Chi Zhan, who was watching coldly.

Ji Zhan clenched Jin Yuan's wrist, his expression was faint from the beginning, obviously not interested in these corpses, but for some reason, he suddenly became cautious at this time, and he reminded softly: "Don't move yet." ”

He saw that Jin Yuan really didn't move, so he let go of his right hand holding Jin Yuan, and then his wrist shook slightly, and a dark gold trimmed willow leaf dart in his sleeve slid down like a spiritual snake close to his forearm, and when he slid to the palm of his hand, he was gently twisted between his fingers by the bent two fingers of the food, and the two fingers were straightened, Jin Yuan only saw a faint arc of light flashing, and when he fixed his eyes, Chi Zhan's fingertips had steadily stood a two-inch-long Xueliang blade, and the action was done in one go, as if this willow leaf dart was also a part of his body. Chi Zhan lightly clamped the willow leaf dart between his fingers, picked open the placket of a monk's clothes, and aimed the blade of the dart at the collarbone, and the gesture was about to go down in a straight line. Jin Yuan was shocked when he saw this, hurriedly grabbed him, and asked urgently, "What are you doing here?"

Chi Zhan said as a matter of course: "Disemboweled." ”

"He's dead, and you're going to open his chamber?"

"How do you know how he died without disemboweling?"

"That'...... You should try something else first, and then you can disembowel it...... It's also too inhumane. ”

"Death is dead, and he doesn't care who is inhumane, he can't feel it anyway. Chi Zhan was not moved at all, but felt that Jin Yuan's mother-in-law and mother didn't know where his worries came from, pursed his lips, no longer looked at him, and before Jin Yuan could say the next sentence, his subordinates neatly drew a blood line, and then pulled his belly to both sides, and the internal organs inside were instantly revealed.

Jin Yuan originally felt that it was too cruel, and twisted his head to the side the moment Chi Zhan opened his stomach, but he suddenly heard Chi Zhan exclaim a "huh", so he couldn't help but turn his head curiously, and when he turned his head, both of them froze. I saw that the whole stomach, which should have been bleeding like a lot, did not flow a few drops of blood at this time, but only the wound was stained with a little red, and it quickly coagulated, and it turned into a blood clot without even leaving the belly, and the inside was even cleaner and outrageous, and there was no filth overflowing, just because this person's internal organs were all frozen!

The heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and intestines are all wrapped in a layer of cold ice, through which you can even see the organs clearly. The different shades of muscles, the different shapes of the outlines, the vertical and horizontal skeletons, and the blood red that seems to be still alive, they are like sealed in a mirror, vivid but untouchable, like a beautiful work of art, without flaws.

Chi Zhan was staring at this breathtaking spectacle in a daze, but suddenly felt a chill quickly spreading on his hands, he felt strange in his heart, and when he looked down, there was a thin layer of ice spreading upwards from the tip of the willow leaf dart at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, a layer of ice ballast was condensed on his fingertips. He hurriedly threw away the willow leaf dart in his hand, and the blackiron dart that was frozen all over the body was accompanied by a soft sound when it landed, and it shattered instantly, leaving only a piece of debris.

Jin Yuanden broke out in a cold sweat, and said in fear: "It's so dangerous!"

"The entrails are all frozen, but the flesh is still warm, what a clever murder method. Chi Zhan looked at his hand with a gloomy expression, "It seems that someone has come back with you." ”

Although Jin Yuan was confident that he didn't find anyone following him along the way, it was no coincidence that as soon as he entered the door with his front foot, someone gave such a big gift on his back foot, so he didn't argue, covered the body with clothes, and said in a deep voice: "They are already testing you." ”

Chi Zhan naturally understood what Jin Yuan meant, in the explosion of Cangshan, Immortal Dao, Qianqiu Pavilion, Drift Fire Island, and Ghost Domain fled together, both friends and foes were affected by the violent retreat of Guixu Naling, even if they escaped, everyone had their own losses, and no one was much better than the other. Now the hundred families of the Xianmen have been injured by the evil rain, and the little half of the disciples have temporarily lost their spiritual power, so they can only defend their own homes; the grass on the wall of Drifting Fire Island must have sensed the thoughts of the ghost domain, and as soon as he came out, he disappeared from the traces, but whether he fled for his life, or hid in the shadows and planned to wait for the opportunity to come back and forth, this is not easy to say, after all, Ye Che will never suffer a loss; the ghost domain has gone to a yellow spring, although it is a good thing, but who knows that there is another afterimage, as soon as this reserve force comes up, the ghost domain should be regarded as the most powerful party now; but the most reassuring thing for Chi Zhan is the Qianqiu Pavilion, after all, no matter what the ghost domain and the Drifting Fire Island are, there are traces to follow, But this Qianqiu Pavilion is really completely out of news, it is really worrying, now there are no people from Qingmiao Peak in this Liangwan City, they are taking risks, if Qianqiu Pavilion comes out to make trouble at a critical moment, no matter how many lives he has, he will have to lose all his lives here!

100,000 evil ghosts, poisonous mangs all over the mountains, and the complex situation in this city, the slightest flaw here will make people suspicious, and the other party will inevitably attack in groups, so these corpses are used by the ghost domain to test him, not only a temptation, but also a provocation, if he avoids it, at most it will be a day and a night, and the afterimage will definitely see the clues, and I am afraid that I will not be able to hide anything at that time.

And all this is not because the coach is not there, if it is Shangguan Yu who is in charge now, the afterimage still dares to play like this?

Jin Yuan lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, he wanted to speak for a while, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Who are these people? Their killing methods are ruthless and cruel, and they are full of tricks, it is not the style of Qianqiu Pavilion at all, they seem to be more capable of killing people than Qianqiu Pavilion." There is obviously a powerful force, but it still has to use the Qianqiu Pavilion as a cover, refusing to show its true identity, if such a force is not discovered, it is afraid that it will be a more terrifying potential danger than the Qianqiu Pavilion. And...... They seem to have a deep relationship with Shangguan, what the hell are you doing?"

"You can see it a long time ago, right?" Chi Zhan looked at him with a light smile, did not hide anything, and said frankly, "They are indeed not from Qianqiu Pavilion, but I can't say their true identity, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but Qingmiao Peak's mouth has a tongue, and what the peak master hasn't instructed has nothing to do with us." If you really want to know, why don't you just ask the peak master?

Hearing this, Jin Yuan naturally understood that this was the limit of their door rules, and now he knew it in his heart, and no longer asked, but said: "Since you have known it for a long time, why do you still let them grow up to this day?

Chi Zhan smiled slightly: "There are many things in this world that we can't solve, rather than breaking it and losing both, it's better to confront each other to find a balance, and you can also keep it stable for a few years." Don't worry, as long as the peak master is still in the day, they won't tear their faces with the immortal path for a day, and they will delay it, the peak master is only seventeen years old this year, at least there will be no problem in the next few decades. ”

Jin Yuan nodded: "I understand." ”

Chi Zhan squinted and stared at the corpse on the ground for a while, but he had no intention of deploying, walked straight back to the table, made a cup of tea, and sipped it thoughtfully.

After a while, he suddenly got up and said to his subordinates behind him, "You all go back to Yanlan." After speaking, he looked at Jin Yuan, "I have to entrust you with one more thing." ”

Jin Yuan stretched out his hand to pick up the residual tea that he had just brewed and was still steaming, and he didn't care that it was left over from him, so he sent it directly to his mouth: "Qianqiu Pavilion has been tossed in Cangshan, and its vitality has been greatly injured, although it is nowhere to be found now, it will definitely not go too far, I will find them." After speaking, he added, "Your tea-making is the same as your gambling skills, it's too bad!"

Ji Zhan threw him a big roll of the eyes and walked away. Jin Yuan put down the teacup, caught a glimpse of his back out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly said, "Set a time limit, you didn't come back to catch you." ”

"You better take care of yourself, the people who got off the horse have been sent to the doorstep, if you don't have to use your proud tea-making skills, I'm afraid you won't even be able to get out of the city, where can you find Yi Lin?"

Jin Yuan laughed: "Each other, each other." ”

When he went out, Chi Zhan glanced in the direction of Cangshan: "If you have to let me send everyone away, no one will be left, now it's okay, provoke a group of evil ghosts to come to the door, and you deserve to die!" He stretched out his hand to catch a frost flower in the wind, "Kindness is cold, people's hearts are cold, it is for the frost on the heart." After so long, I still firmly believe that people's hearts are cold, and it seems that no one in this world can let him melt the ice in his heart. ”
