Chapter 037: Why is she
Cheng Jiang's story is simple to tell and easy to understand.
At the beginning of the story, it is very similar to the revenge upgrade hot-blooded male frequency article that Gu Yunying has seen.
This world is divided into the immortal realm, the cultivation realm, and the mundane world, the three realms are separated by gaps and do not interfere with each other, and the people in the mundane world are all mortals, and most of them are unable to practice.
Cheng Jiang is also a mortal in the mortal world, his father died early, his mother made a living by weaving, although the life of orphans and widows was difficult, but it was also passable, plus Cheng Jiang was smart since childhood, and was said to be promising by the teacher of the private school in the countryside, and later became a child in the imperial examination, known as a genius.
If you continue to live according to the original trajectory, you may rely on the imperial examination to enter the official career, be favored by the people in the court, and finally become a corrupt official...... Phew!
But everything was broken by a demon cultivator who suddenly appeared.
The demon cultivator suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the ridges of the fields full of rice, alarming the entire village.
Because of the magic power of demon cultivation, the villagers thought that it was a god descending to earth, and they knelt down and kowtowed one after another, obeying the dispatch, but Cheng Jiang was the only stunned young man who scoffed, feeling that it was a strange force and was extremely resistant.
It didn't take long for the demon cultivator to say that in order to repay the villagers for saving their lives, he gave them an elixir that could increase their lifespan, and Cheng Jiang's mother also asked for one for him, but Cheng Jiang didn't want to accept it, and he didn't eat this inexplicable thing when he was killed.
At that time, Cheng Jiang was young and vigorous, and he couldn't stand the fact that the people in the village were fooled by this demon cultivator and didn't know it, so he simply ran away from home and went to a friend's house in the town to spend a few days, preparing to collect evidence, write a lawsuit, and report it directly to the yamen to arrest the demon cultivator who was tricky.
But on the very second day, the news came, that the whole village had been killed, and that blood had stained the entire ridge red.
Only Cheng Jiang, who ran away in negative anger, escaped.
Just when Cheng Jiang was grieving, the county magistrate couldn't find the demon cultivator he was talking about, and in order to settle the matter as soon as possible, he imprisoned him as a suspect.
Cheng Jiang couldn't bear such a big grievance, escaped from prison, and returned to the place where the demon cultivator first appeared, and finally saw the demon cultivator who had disappeared for a long time, and saw that he wanted to go to heaven, he ran over and hugged the demon cultivator like crazy, and in the whirlwind of the world, he actually came to the cultivation realm.
“…… At that time, I thought I was going to the place where the gods lived, but later I learned that everyone here has magical powers, I was adopted by a casual cultivator who was about to live a long time, he taught me a lot of things, and later when he was about to die, he told me that there are people in the Sword Sect who are very similar to me, and if you don't know how to take revenge, go to the Sword Sect. ”
As he spoke, Cheng Jiang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: "I heard that the first seat of Za Wangfeng is also a person who is jealous of demon cultivation, and he also came from the mortal world to take revenge on demon cultivation, so I thought if I could worship under his door......"
"You can't worship it." Gu Yunying told him this fact very happily.
Before Cheng Jiang could take back the tears hanging in the corners of his eyes, he was choked by Gu Yunying's categorical words, and pointed at her tremblingly for a long time: "You are ruthless, you are ruthless!" ”
"You're being vexatious." Gu Yunying squinted at him, and without waiting for Cheng Jiang to continue speaking, she glanced at the demon cultivator who was grinning beside her, "Don't grind, if you want to enter the Sword Sect, bring this demon cultivator back, maybe it will give you an extra reward." ”
Cheng Jiang looked at the demon cultivator who was tied up by five flowers, and then at Gu Yunying, who looked indifferent, and hesitated: "What about you?" ”
Gu Yunying pondered for two seconds: "The sun is shining in the sky, the flowers are smiling at me, and the little bird said, early, why are you carrying a small schoolbag?" ”
Cheng Jiang looked at her in surprise, why did she still sing!?
"I said, mind your own business, it's all about you."
[Gain Chengjiang's aggro +100.] 】
Cheng Jiang was so angry that he couldn't say anything, so he turned his back directly, not bothering to care where Gu Yunying went.
However, when he came back to his senses, he found that something was wrong, and he lowered his head and asked the tightly bound demon cultivator, "What are your intentions in infiltrating the Sword Sect?" ”
The demon cultivator was gagged by a stinky, dirty rag, his eyes closed, and there was no reaction.
Cheng Jiang was angry again, he couldn't deal with Gu Yunying, who could kill people, couldn't he deal with the demon cultivator of this turtle in the urn.
Just when he wanted to extract a confession, the world suddenly turned around, and the scene around him quickly changed, bursting like a bubble phantom, until the most real scene was revealed.
After looking around clearly, Cheng Jiang was so frightened that he forgot to breathe.
The huge loquat trees are thriving, and it is midday, and the harsh sunlight casts a swaying shade through the layers of leaves, blocking out the scorching heat.
But Chengjiang stood in the shade of this dark tree, but he felt a burst of shade from the outside in, and even involuntarily got goosebumps.
All around them stood straight and looked like a walking corpse.
He looked around and noticed that he was extremely abrupt.
I see——!
It dawned on him that no one had ever stepped out of this courtyard from the beginning!
The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, and the dense crowd of people stood in the courtyard, motionless, their eyes glazed, except for the sound of the leaves of the loquat trees being blown by the wind.
"Grunt." He clearly heard himself swallowing saliva, and from the bottom of his heart he felt terrible.
And the demon cultivator also showed a look of horror on his face, as if he didn't expect that the perfect disguise they thought they thought was actually under the nose of the Sword Sect, and it was clearly seen.
"This Taoist friend, the family teacher is invited."
Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind him.
Cheng Jiang turned his head to look, and saw the Sword Sect disciple named Pingling looking behind him with a smile and making a gesture of invitation to him.
Immediately, other Sword Sect disciples walked in silently, but they were dressed in red and black clothes, and they all looked angry, and they made people retreat.
"That's all the fellow disciples of Cold Sky Peak." Pingling explained to the frightened Cheng Jiang with a smile.
While leading the way for Cheng Jiang, he explained to him: "The family teacher likes to study the formation, and he is good at illusion, so the magic array of Jinghua Peak is all from the hand of his own teacher. ”
"From the moment you moved into this courtyard, you have been in the phantom array of the family teacher, and the ribbon you got by drawing lots is the key to fully entering the phantom array."
Cheng Jiang completely understood, he looked back, and saw that the shadow cast by the loquat tree happened to envelop all the trialists, I am afraid that the loquat tree is where the eye of the phantom array is.
But all the eyes of the phantom array, the people who set up the array are eager to hide as deep as possible, but the phantom array of the Sword Sect does the opposite, and it is placed in front of them in a grand manner, which makes people have no doubt.
Could it be that this is the so-called Heavenly Sect?
Even the Sword Sect, which was at the bottom of the ranking, was unpredictable and beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Cheng Jiang wiped a cold sweat.
Everyone in the world is Dao Sword Sect's luck is withering, and this Nima is all fart.
"It is said that Jing Huafeng has already pulled out several demon cultivators." Jiang Qiubai held a small notebook and stood in the gloomy cell, reporting the latest progress to Wen Dongting, who was still in the cage.
Wen Dongting closed his eyes, hummed a little tune, and lay on the bed gracefully, as if he didn't listen to Jiang Qiubai's words, but nodded from time to time to show that he had heard.
Jiang Qiubai closed the notebook and sighed helplessly: "As you wish, we hid from the master and let the little junior sister enter the phantom array without noticing. ”
"Well done." Hearing this, Wen Dongting nodded with satisfaction.
"Senior brother, I don't ask you to tell the truth, but you have a little bit of insight with me and my senior sister, what are you suspicious of for my junior sister?" Jiang Qiubai frowned and asked.
Considering the danger of demon cultivation, according to the plan discussed between the head of the sect and Wen Dongting, it should have been Lu An who sent all the trialists into the phantom array unknowingly, so that their words and deeds would be undoubtedly revealed, and the latent demon cultivators could be found out as quickly as possible.
And as a closed disciple who had already been condemned by Shen Yipi, Gu Yunying should also be informed about the phantom array, so that the inside and the outside could be combined, so that the demon cultivator could show his feet faster.
But Wen Dongting suddenly summoned Jiang Qiubai and Su Xuan, asking them to hide from Shen Yipi, so that Gu Yunying also entered the phantom array, as if he was also observing Gu Yunying's words and deeds.
Su Juan is a fairly direct character, and he chooses to trust the second junior brother who has been with him for hundreds of years, and he doesn't ask the reason.
But Jiang Qiubai knew the importance of Gu Yunying, a closed disciple, to his master, and in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he personally ran to the cell and asked the doubts in his heart straight to the point-
Gu Yunying, what is there to doubt?
"Third child, your problem of breaking the casserole should be changed." Wen Dongting shook his head and said casually.
Jiang Qiubai stared at him silently.
"This is a person, you can't be too persistent, if you are obsessed with one thing, you will only find trouble."
Jiang Qiubai was still staring at him silently.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." Wen Dongting couldn't stand this gaze and sat up from the bed.
He stretched out his left hand and pointed to several other cells, and said, "Do you know how many monks are held in this Sword Sect's cell? ”
Jiang Qiubai replied without hesitation: "Judging from the records of the prison, there are a total of 3,125 people, of which 109 have died of life, 347 have committed suicide, 896 have died of torture, and 99 have been released after completing their sentences. ”
If the sect next to it heard this number, it would probably gasp.
It is inconceivable that the Sword Sect, which has never had any sense of existence, would detain so many monks.
You must know that in the prison cell of Xuantian Sect, there are only three hundred people in total.
Wen Dongting had long known this number, and asked, "Then do you know how many of them have destroyed their foundations because of their torture?" ”
Jiang Qiubai hesitated and replied, "Except for you, all the foundations are destroyed. ”
Wen Dongting then asked, "Then do you know how many monks here have restored their foundations, even if only a little bit of recovery?" ”
Jiang Qiubai stood in place and was silent for a long time: "No, not one." ”
Wen Dongting stood up, spread his hands, and looked at the entire huge cell, the rows of cells were like an underground city that did not see the light of day.
"Then tell me again, most of the monks here are gifted and talented, either for natural desires, or for love, hatred and hatred, they have been locked in this cage for hundreds of years, thousands of years, in terms of qualifications, family background, and opportunities, each of them is favored by the Heavenly Dao than Gu Yunying, why can't they create miracles and restore their foundation?"
"Looking at the cultivation realm in the past 10,000 years, who can still reshape the meridians after the foundation is destroyed, which one is not the pride of the heavens with monstrous luck, leaving countless historical biographies."
"It's just an abandoned girl from the Gu family, and she hasn't even touched a sword before, how can she restore her foundation!"
