I didn't expect, it is no exaggeration to say that I never dreamed that Zhong Bai would appear at this critical time, and would help me, you must know that Zhong Bai has always wanted to kill me, this idea has not changed from the beginning, but what is going on now, Zhong Bai's actions make me incomprehensible, and the machine spirit is also unable to figure it out.

Zhong Bai strode over, although the speed was not fast, but the surging aura exuded from the whole body was terrifying, the bare skin was shining with gold, the divine luster made my eyes widen in surprise, and the machine spirit was even more shocked in my mind, and four words appeared at the same time in the two of us in a moment:

Haoran righteousness!

I have felt the familiar breath on Liu Rou's body, and left a particularly deep impression, when it appears again, of course I will notice it for the first time, but Haoran righteousness actually appeared on Zhong Bai's body, it is so incredible for me and the machine spirit, if it appears on another person's body, we may not be so surprised, but Zhong Bai's body is absolutely impossible, but it appeared, what is going on, is it an illusion?

"Machine spirit, did I see an illusion, everything is an illusion?" I said in a daze, as if the machine spirit was also immersed in shock and couldn't extricate itself, and said dumbly, "This is also what I want to ask, did we both see hallucinations at the same time?" ”

The next moment, Zhong Bai came to my side, and suddenly said coldly, "Boy, don't think nonsense, I really want to kill you, but you are my Zhong Kuimen after all, as a descendant of Zhong Kui, I have the right and obligation to protect any Zhong Kuimen, even if I save you today, it does not mean that I will give up the heart of killing you, the Demon Bagua Mirror can only be owned by Zhong Kui's descendants, and anyone who wants to get involved only dies." ”

Cold words, threatening content, I actually heard a trace of warmth, at this time Zhong Bai is really like a master elder, when he sees his disciples being hurt, he will always stand up without hesitation, I looked at Zhong Bai with confused eyes, Zhong Bai just now and Zhong Bai now are like two people who are completely different, I can't believe that the current Zhong Bai is still the Zhong Bai who did all the evil just now, is he a kind elder or a demon who does no evil?

Suddenly, I found that I couldn't see what Zhong Bai was, as if he had a dual personality, and the changes in a short moment were simply very different. Ji Ling suddenly sighed, and said in a sad tone, "Yan, I suddenly recalled a hidden secret in Zhong Kuimen, every time the new head is in charge of everything in the sect, the most powerful person in Zhong Kui's descendants will always disappear mysteriously, at that time I guessed that he may have been killed in order to compete for the position of the leader, and now I finally understand, we misunderstood Zhong Bai, what he is doing now is for the future of Zhong Kuimen, is really great, damn, we misunderstood him." ”

The machine spirit's words made me even more confused, and I secretly thought in my heart, could it be that Zhong Bai's sudden help moved the machine spirit, so at this time, the machine spirit will casually find a reason to defend Zhong Bai? Who knew that my thought had just risen before it was interrupted by the angry voice of the machine spirit, "Bastard, we are not qualified to doubt Zhong Kui's descendants' love for Zhong Kuimen, I believe that Zhong Bai must have some kind of hardship, otherwise how could he do something that would damage Zhong Kuimen's reputation." ”

"But if he wants to kill me, am I going to stand and let him kill me for the sake of your uncertain guess?" I smiled bitterly, no matter what Zhong Bai's hardships and intentions are, for a person who has always wanted to kill himself, the reaction of a normal person is definitely to fight back, of course I will not be an exception, although I will be like when I shoot, but I will definitely fight back, because I don't want to die, and I can't die, the truth of the master's death, the mysterious disappearance of the village, a series of things are waiting for me to solve, and now dying is equivalent to giving up, how can I see the dead master under Jiuquan.

At this time, I took a deep breath, glanced at Zhong Bai deeply, and said lightly, "You did save my life, I owe you a favor, I will consider mercy when the two of us encounter it in the future, but don't expect me to return my life." ”

Hearing my words, Zhong Bai smiled strangely and said, "Lu Dayou has accepted a good apprentice, smart enough, bold enough, no wonder the Demon Bagua Mirror will choose you as the master, but it's a pity that you are a short-lived ghost, by the way, I will also not show mercy to my subordinates in the future, and only by killing you can I repay the sins committed by Lu Dayou's master and apprentice back then." In the end, Zhong Bai's face was extremely hideous, and the hatred in his eyes was like substance, which made people suddenly feel a chill all over his body.

Terrible people, terrible breath, this moment Zhong Bai has returned to murderous tyranny, this seems to be the real Zhong Bai, just now it was just a flash in the pan, maybe never see the second time. At this time, for some reason, my heart turned out to be a wave of loss, as if I had lost something important.

"Zhong Kui's descendants, the mission that has lasted for thousands of years Originally, I thought it had already ended, no one would abide by this oath, but I didn't expect that I was wrong, today I saw the real Zhong Kui's descendants, and I perfectly continued the spirit of Zhong Kui's descendants." The tone of the machine spirit is very sad, at this time, I faintly understood the meaning of the machine spirit's words, the Zhong Bai I saw was only one side, the real front may be buried forever, maybe only until the moment of death Zhong Bai can be himself, back to a real person.

Looking at Zhong Bai's back, he suddenly found that this middle-aged man's waist seemed to be slightly bent, even if he tried to straighten his waist, it seemed that too much burden made him overwhelmed, heavy steps, slightly inclined body between walking, maybe there were too many secrets hidden in this middle-aged man's body.

"Senior Spirit, I don't understand why Zhong Bai wants to kill me, Zhong Kuimen is now only the two of us, and there is no deep hatred between the two of us, it seems that we haven't reached the point of life and death, so I don't understand, and I can't figure it out, what is Zhong Bai's reason for killing me?"

The true element in the body is recovering quickly, but because it is depleted, it is absolutely impossible to completely recover in a short period of time, at this time, I finally couldn't help but ask the biggest question in my heart, hoping to get a reasonable answer to the body of the machine spirit.

"Alas!" Ji Ling sighed heavily, was silent for a while, seemed to be recalling the past, and after a while, he said sadly, "Zhong Kuimen, since the death of Zhong Kui's old ancestor, the whole Zhong Kui has been messed up, conspiracy, assassination, in order to compete for the position of the head of Zhong Kuimen, Zhong Kuimen does not know how many people have died, the most ridiculous thing is that the person who finally succeeded in becoming the head of the house does not know that he has embarked on a dead end, three years later, the new head of the house died, and the strange thing lasted three times, Zhong Kui's descendants finally understood that something was wrong, and when the new head took office, he quietly sent a master to investigate the cause of the death of the previous heads.

Alas, at first they suspected that Zhong Kuimen's hostile forces sent people to assassinate them, so the key investigation targets were also these people, but what they didn't expect was that three years later, when the new head died, he left an important message, and it was also at this time that the Yin Ghost finally showed his feet, when he heard the news of the birth of the Yin Soul, Zhong Kui was in a panic, Zhong Kui's terrifying strength paid the price of death and died with the Yin Soul, who didn't expect the Yin Soul to be alive.

At this time, it was the darkest period in the history of Zhong Kuimen, and the masters in the faction lost a lot because of the internal friction in the struggle for the head of the sect, and the combat power lost by Zhong Kui and the underworld in the first battle was only one-tenth, which was much worse than at the beginning. If it is placed in other sects in the face of the threat of ghosts, they may choose to retreat, but Zhong Kuimen can't, the purpose of Zhong Kuimen's establishment is to fight against the underworld, against all ghosts, even if the ghost has an entity, but after all, he still belongs to the category of ghosts, Zhong Kuimen has always claimed to be the nemesis of ghosts, in the face of a powerful almost impossible to defeat the ghosts, Zhong Kui's descendants chose to fight, but the sad thing is that the rest of Zhong Kuimen did not have such courage, in just a few days Zhong Kuimen people were less than 3,000 people, They were not dead, but scared, retreated, and the belief in co-living and dying with Zhong Kuimen was completely left behind.

There are only dozens of Zhong Kui's descendants left, of course, there is no lack of loyal people in Zhong Kuimen, they left the foundation of Zhong Kuimen under the leadership of a Zhong Kui descendant, left the home where they lived for most of their lives, and hid in a hidden place, and the dozens of Zhong Kui descendants and the yin soul who stayed behind fought a life-and-death battle in a desperate valley, and the final result was very miserable, only three of the dozens of Zhong Kui's descendants survived, although the Yin soul was severely damaged, but unfortunately for the people who survived, this duel still failed, Paying a terrible price but not completely destroying the Yin Soul is too heavy for even those who are accustomed to seeing life and death to bear. ”

couldn't stop sighing, as if recalling the bloody scene, the blood of Zhong Kui's descendants stained the valley red, they used blood to render their own beliefs, although they died, but they were thousands of times stronger than the 3,000 deserters.

"And then, where did the people who left go?" I asked heavily.

Ji Ling shook his head, confused and said, "Later, the three surviving Zhong Kuimen people used hundreds of years of time to finally restore a trace of Zhong Kuimen's vitality, whenever they trust the head of the sect to take office, they will always send the most powerful young master among Zhong Kui's descendants, as for where to go, I don't know, maybe looking for those who left, after all, the crisis of Zhong Kuimen has passed, and it is time to return to the sect and return home." ”

Hearing such an answer, I frowned, the departure of those people was under the leadership of Zhong Kui's descendants, where to go The three people who are alive are absolutely very clear, after the crisis, it stands to reason that these three people should pass on the news to let all the departed people come back, but they did not do this, but kept sending masters, it is too strange, it seems unreasonable to do so.

Why exactly?

Speculations appeared in my mind, I kept shaking my head, negating one guess after another, and in the end, I couldn't figure out whether it was because the machine spirit's narrative was too simple, and the machine spirit overlooked any details when recalling just now, maybe things were not as complicated as I imagined, but close to ordinary ordinary. However, I always feel that something is wrong, and I can't calm down in my heart, the more I think about it, the more chaotic it becomes, and the whole person seems to have fallen into a dead end.
