Chapter 35: The Past: The Merman

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer, Mo Ran controlled his breathing, and after calming down, he turned into a magic knife in his hand and pressed against the door. Keep your ears on the door, listen to the sounds outside the door, and prepare for a big battle.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps came from the guest room not far from the next door, the Huashan monk heard the movement and quickly stabbed the sword to the "person" who fled to the door, with a terrible scream, the "person" was subdued, the sword control monk withdrew the sword to the scabbard, and the monks rushed to hear the sound.

When the footsteps were far away, Mo Ran gently opened the door and looked out, and a child about ten years old fell at the door of the inn, after being stabbed by the sword, his legs slowly changed back to the prototype, and it turned out to be a shark with a human face and a beast tail. The mermaid is covered with blue scales all over its body, and its tail is similar to that of an ordinary fish, but its face looks like a child. At this moment, the merman's face was full of despair, and blue tears fell helplessly.

The merman barely supported himself on his elbows, trying to crawl and escape, but he couldn't use his strength, and blue blood was gurgling from his abdomen.

"You demon, you still want to run!" the monk stepped forward and swung his sword with another blow, and the scales on the merman's back were cut, and a terrifying sword wound appeared.

When the tenants in the inn heard the noise, they all opened their doors to watch the excitement, but they didn't dare to get too close, so they had to gather at the door of their respective guest rooms and talk about it.

"Hey, why is his blood blue? It's scary, it's disgusting!"

"It's still a child, it looks weird and pitiful, do you have any sympathy?"

"What kind of sympathy do you want for the demons? Are you crazy? The demons killed so many people in our human race back then, and how many of them were younger children than this, and they should pay for it with blood!"

"That's right, you should kill them, none of these demons are good. ”

"These immortal cultivators are really powerful, they can be solved in three clicks and two clicks, but I don't know if they still accept disciples, I also want to try. ”

"Cut, is that you?"

......

Everyone was gossiping, and the mermaid fainted under the gaze of the people.

One of the monks wanted to stab the merman with another sword to end the merman's life, but was stopped by the leading monk, "Wait, it's better to take him back, the junior brothers and sisters always say that they have never seen the real demon, and the simulated formation of the training camp has never had a merman, let's take it back and show them." ”

So, the monks reached a consensus, took out the bundle of fairy ropes, tied up the merman, and threw it into the magic bag.

The monks successfully completed their mission to exorcise demons, and Edgeworth left the inn.

Mo Ran looked at it in a daze, even though there were many, many scenes of Terran monks killing demons like this in her mind, but after all, this was the first time she had seen it with her own eyes when she came to this world, and she couldn't help but feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, and the things hurt her.

Since Mo Ran lived in the inn, he had never heard of evil spirits in the inn or even within a radius of hundreds of miles, resulting in casualties. This merman may have just settled down in the inn to rest, but the Terrans still couldn't let him go, and he didn't even have a chance to defend himself.

Thinking of this, she seemed to be able to suddenly understand Bai Ze's ideals, most people in the world think that if they are demons, they should be killed, but if they have never done evil, and even have a good heart, why should they die?

Mo Ran's heart was full of sourness, but she couldn't bravely stand up and save the merman. She didn't dare, and she didn't have the ability and certainty that she could save him without harming herself. I could only grit my teeth and say: "What's the matter with me, I don't need to put myself in it, I'm not the savior of this world!"

After making sure that the monks were far away, Mo Ran quietly left the inn.

Along the way, she was preoccupied, walked slowly, and swayed leisurely and did not leave Lulin Town in the evening.

"This world is so sad, I must go back, I can't stand such an aggrieved world!" Mo Ran muttered to himself, holding the string on the sachet and tying it in a knot as he walked.

"He also said that he could help me, and it was like death at a critical time!"

Mo Ran hatefully grabbed the sachet, took off the sachet, and prepared to throw it away, "Hmph, what's the use of you!" But after thinking about it, he still withdrew his hand, stuffed the sachet into the baggage, and couldn't see it.

Mo Ran didn't know if he was angry that Fusang didn't help, or because he was angry that he watched his fellow clan being bullied and hurt but couldn't do anything. There seems to be a boulder blocking my heart, and my mood is heavy and depressed.

She walked slowly with her head down, until she almost bumped into someone coming at her, and she realized that she was in a trance. When I looked closely, it turned out to be Bai Ze.

Bai Ze grabbed Mo Ran's shoulder anxiously and said, "Girl, are you okay?" I heard that there are Huashan monks nearby today, are you okay?

Mo Ranqi said: "Didn't you go to Qiongzhou first, why are you still here?"

Bai Ze explained: "I was worried that the girl would not be able to cope with it alone, so I turned back, and as soon as I came back, I heard that the inn where we stayed was infested with demons and was subdued by the monks of Huashan. ”

"It's a demon who has been killed, but it's not me. Mo Ran said listlessly.

"That's good, you're fine. Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief and let go of Mo Ran, "What's wrong with you if it's okay?"

Mo Ran still said wistfully: "If a heartbreak is also an injury, then I am injured." ”

"Huh?" Bai Ze didn't understand what Mo Ran's heartache was.

"No, I'm really fine, that merman didn't die, but it was almost gone, and he was taken away by the people of Huashan. Mo Ran said the situation, some expected Bai Ze to help, with his cultivation to save the merman should not be difficult, if he goes, even if it is a thousand difficulties, she will definitely accompany her.

"Then let's go to Qiongzhou!" Bai Ze turned around and wanted to go away.

Mo Ran didn't expect Bai Ze to hear her hint, so he stopped him: "Don't you want to save the merman?" That merman looks like he is only ten years old, and he doesn't know how many sins he will suffer if he is caught, it's too pitiful. ”

"Go to Qiongzhou City first, it's important to catch the hammer, as for the shark you said, we can't save it, we can't break into the Huashan Mountain Protection Formation, besides, such things happen every day, we can't control so much. Bai Ze looked back at Mo Ran and said softly.

"You are also saying that it is my Virgin's heart that is overflowing. Mo Ran sighed, although what Bai Ze said was reasonable, she always felt that something was wrong.

Although she has not known Bai Ze for a long time, she has always thought that Bai Ze will help the weak, just like helping her who has never known her, but now she is prevaricating, and some words and deeds are inconsistent, is she really afraid of danger?

"Where did your sachet go?" Bai Ze asked when he saw that the sachet on her waist was gone.

"It's useless, I lost it!" Mo Ran replied casually.

Bai Ze shook his head, as if thinking about something, but then returned to his usual indifferent appearance.

"Let's go, I'll come to Edgeworth, I'll take you with me, you're not fit to fly alone at your current state. Bai Ze was thoughtful and said very thoughtfully.

Mo Ran happily agreed: "Okay." ”

"When we get to Qiongzhou City, I can take you around and relax. I am familiar with the city of Qiongzhou. Bai Ze controlled his sword and took off in the air and helped Mo Ran up.

Hengshan practiced fire magic, and the sword they made was different from Huashan's Xuantie sword, any monk who cultivated gold magic could use different Xuantie swords at will, and the sword body of other factions other than the gold system used swords was cast with the elements of their respective factions, and each sword must recognize the master, if it uses other people's swords, it cannot be controlled very flexibly. This is also one of the reasons why Huashan swordsmanship is unique, only because of its innate advantages.

"Oops!" Mo Ran just stood on the sword, his feet were bumpy and unstable, and he almost fell.

"Sorry, mistake, you stood firm!" Bai Ze adjusted his state, re-established his sword, stabilized this time, and set off.

Along the way, Mo Ran didn't speak, silently observing the sword under his feet, and muttered in his heart, or a sword spike with a light blue jade pendant, this sword is Bai Ze's own sword, with his many years of experience in Hengshan cultivation, why would he make such a low-level mistake.
