Chapter Seventy-Two: The Grim Reaper's Declaration

"General Cao?" Li Wenyuan took a few steps back in fear, but he had to put on a flattering smile on his face, "Are you here to see Master when you go up the mountain at this time?" ”

"To be her apprentice, you are also worthy?" Cao Xiu said sharply, "Take it away!" ”

Li Wenyuan saw that things were not good, so he hurriedly ran back. Cao Xiu also immediately led people to catch up, and Li Wenyuan took the trail all the way back to Qingxuguan and hid in the firewood room without being noticed.

As soon as he stopped at the firewood room, Cao Xiu's men and horses also chased after him.

Seeing this, Qing Xiu and other real people hurriedly led the disciples out from the room to greet Cao Xiu.

"I don't know what is the important matter for General Cao to come here overnight?" An elder monk stepped forward and flattered.

Qing Xiu looked coldly at the nobility of these so-called cultivators, but they were arrogant in front of people, and they still bowed their heads in front of power.

Cao Xiu naturally knew this, he ignored the words of the elders, and directly turned his gaze to Qing Xiu, and asked, "Have you seen Li Wenyuan?" ”

Qing Xiu shook his head and said, "He went up the mountain to look for me before you came, but I didn't keep him, and after that, he disappeared." ”

"Well," Cao Xiu nodded, "I saw him when I went up the mountain, did he come back here later?" ”

"Nope." Qing Xiu shook his head and said.

"Well, I believe you." Cao Xiu smiled lightly at her, and then led the people away.

After everyone dispersed, Qing Xiu quietly went around to the firewood room in the backyard and saw Li Wenyuan, who was shivering in the cold wind.

"They're gone." Qing Xiu's voice was extremely cold, but for Li Wenyuan, it was already extremely warm.

"Thank you...... Master Xie. Li Wenyuan bowed guilty to Qing Xiu.

"What are you going to do next?" Qing Xiu asked.

"I don't know, if you can escape, run away, it's a big deal to be incognito and have a dull life." Li Wenyuan sighed.

"If only you had done this earlier." Qing Xiu shook his head and said, "For the sake of you and my master and apprentice, I'll help you this time, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on, do you understand?" ”

"Yes!" Li Wenyuan kowtowed with tears, then stood up, and was about to turn around to leave, when he was bumped into by the little Taoist priest who got up at night. The little Taoist priest was a disciple of the elder cultivator just now, and when he saw Li Wenyuan and Qing Xiu standing together, he was naturally shocked.

"You...... You ......" The little Taoist priest pointed at Li Wenyuan, speechless.

Li Wenyuan was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he hurriedly stepped forward to cover the little Taoist's mouth and threatened: "If you dare to speak out, I will kill you." ”

The little Taoist priest was so frightened that he nodded again and again, and Qing Xiu behind him shouted again: "Why don't you leave quickly, what kind of prestige are you playing here?" ”

Li Wenyuan glanced back, and then left in a hurry.

Qing Xiu said to the little Taoist: "Today's events should not be passed on. ”

"But Uncle Shi, then Li Wenyuan is a wanted person." The little Taoist priest said uneasily.

"I know that he has now stepped out of this door, and from now on, he will no longer be a pure person, if he dares to come back, you can only report to the official." Qing Xiu said.

"Yes, Uncle Shi." The little Taoist priest nodded, and then went back to his room to rest.

However, the next day, the news of Li Wenyuan's return to Qingxuguan at night spread throughout Qingxuguan, and the little Taoist priest didn't say anything, and his master seemed to have already known.

"Bold Qing Xiu, dare to hide murderous scum privately, and don't recruit them quickly!" The patriarchs of Qingxuguan looked righteous and awe-inspiring, called Qing Xiu to the house, and was about to torture her, but when they saw that she refused to kneel, they were dissatisfied again, "Don't kneel yet." ”

"I never kneel in Qingxiu." Qing Xiu still looked indifferent, but his eyes were like knives, and the knife cut his heart.

The patriarchs hated her the most, so they hurriedly shouted: "It seems that we really want us to hand you over to the government." ”

"Didn't you already call it?" Qing Xiu glanced coldly at the officials behind him.

The patriarchs sneered, "Then don't blame us for being ruthless." ”

"When have you ever been in love?"

"You!" The patriarchs couldn't get used to Qing Xiu for a long time, so they hurriedly said, "Trouble the officials, take this Qingxu rebel away!" ”

When Qing Xiu was taken away, all the 100 disciples under her knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Master has been tolerant and fair in this life, and has never bent the law for personal gain, I hope you will be aware of all uncles and uncles!"

"Humph! Don't be fooled by her sanctimonious looks! Take away, take away! ”

After being escorted down the mountain, Qing Xiu was tortured again, but she really didn't know where Li Wenyuan went, but fortunately, the prefect saw that she was really beautiful, and for the sake of Cao Xiu's face, he couldn't bear to abuse her too much, so she had to be locked in a cell and waited.

The scarred Qing Xiu lay weakly on the grass in the cell, the cold environment made her gradually unbearable, she took off the sandalwood hairpin on her head, held it tightly in her hand, and the blood dripped along the hairpin and dripped on the jade jue in her arms little by little, and the pure white jade was gradually dyed with blood.

"General, this woman is the one who shields the traitors of the court."

Qing Xiu got up slightly and looked in the direction of the voice, at this time, she and Cao Xiu looked at each other, and both of them were stunned.

"Qing Xiu, you ......" Cao Xiu saw that she was covered in blood, and knew that someone had tortured her, so he said angrily, "Who hurt her?" ”

Seeing that the general was so angry, the subordinate hurriedly knelt down and said: "It was requested by the Taoist masters of Qingxuguan, saying that she knew Li Wenyuan's whereabouts, but how we tortured her, she just didn't say." ”

"Open the door!" Cao Xiu almost didn't kick anyone.

"Yes, yes, yes."

After the cell door opened, he hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Qing Xiu, but he didn't dare to make too much of a move, so he had to hold her with one hand and ask, "Do you really have a secret secret to protect Li Wenyuan?" ”

Qing Xiu chuckled and said: "He came to Qingxuguan, and I also let him go, but I never dared to hide it privately." ”

"Then why didn't you say it that night?"

Qing Xiu replied: "Even if he is not in every way, after all, he is still my favorite apprentice in the past, I remembered the love of master and apprentice, let him go, and then he went, I really don't know." ”

After Cao Xiu heard this, he was silent for a long time, after all, this cover-up crime, Qing Xiu really can't get rid of it.

Don't you know how to tell a lie for yourself?

Cao Xiu thought secretly in his heart.

At this time, a small soldier stumbled in and said, "General, it's not good, Li Wenyuan knows that the patriarchs of Qingxuguan have sent Qingxiu Zhenren to the official mansion, saying that they want to get back the master, and they have already made trouble there!" ”

"What?!" Cao Xiu and Qing Xiu were shocked at the same time. Subsequently, Cao Xiu took Qingxiu to Qingxuguan to stop Li Wenyuan.

After getting out of the carriage, Qing Xiu, with the support of Cao Xiu, looked at the Qingxuan Guan who was bleeding in front of him, and was a little dumbfounded, Li Wenyuan saw her coming, and hurriedly put down the knife in his hand, and ran to ask, "Master, are you okay?" ”

"I'm not your master!" Qing Xiu was so angry that he gasped a few times and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, "These are the senior brothers who have been in trouble with you, see for yourself what you have done!" ”

Li Wenyuan was about to reply, when several patriarchs who had isolated all their disciples outside the house in order to save their lives walked out tremblingly, and after crying and grabbing the ground for a while, they pointed at Qing Xiu angrily and scolded: "You scourge! Look at what kind of apprentices you've taught! Causing all my disciples to be destroyed by this rebel, you are so damned! ”

"What did you say?" Li Wenyuan has been dissatisfied with these old bones for a long time, "When your apprentices were desperate just now, why didn't you come out to protect Ichigo?" ”

"Enough!" Qing Xiu trembled, pointed at Li Wenyuan and shouted, "I don't have you as a disciple!" You...... You'll disappear for me right away! ”

Li Wenyuan's eyes were red, he threw off the knife in his hand and knelt on the ground.

Qing Xiu had completely lost her strength at this time, she broke free of Cao Xiu's hand and fell in front of the Qingxuguan Gate.

The patriarchs inside said coldly: "I was the daughter of a rebel minister, and I was a scourge from the beginning, and now I connive at the rebel brother to slaughter my disciples, there is no teacher morality and Taoism at all, and heaven and earth will not tolerate it!" ”

"Li Wenyuan, you also heard it," Qing Xiu still smiled calmly, "In this world, what you take for granted, others may not be able to accept, those who violate the taboo of the world, those who cause public anger, will be eliminated, regardless of the truth, regardless of joy and sorrow." Whether it is an immortal cultivator or an ordinary person, this is the case on this kind of issue. ”

"Master......" Li Wenyuan looked at her blankly.

Cao Xiu also received a secret order to kill without mercy at this time, and at this time, his heart was like a knife, but he had to obey the order. With his saber in hand, he slowly moved forward and stopped as he walked in front of Qing Xiu.

"Kill her! General, the scourge must not be left behind! The patriarchs said one after another.

The people who watched the excitement around also cheered.

"Shut up!" Cao Xiu looked at them coldly, so shocked that those old bones could no longer speak.

Qing Xiu said with a smile: "You and I have no chance in this life, I hope that I can always accompany you in the next life, and the sandalwood hairpin will be returned to you, and I will only leave Yu Jue by my side." It is said that people can be reincarnated in seven lives, my heart is clear, this is my first life, and in each subsequent life I will attach a wisp of soul in the jade, this life is subjugated to the world, if the world bears me again, I will no longer forgive. ”

After speaking, Cao Xiu raised the knife with red eyes, and after pausing in the air for a few seconds, he stabbed the knife straight into his body, Qing Xiu smiled and held the knife, and with a little more force, he pierced himself.

Cao Xiu didn't dare to face her pure smile, turned around and cried bitterly. Li Wenyuan was also stunned.

At this time, black clouds gradually gathered in the sky, mixed with blue-purple lightning, like a whirlpool rotating directly above the Qingxuguan, and then, a thunderbolt fell, and with a bang, the entire Qingxuguan was immediately blown to the ground, all the disciples were left with bones, the patriarchs were killed in this thunderstorm, and Qingxiu and her Yujue also disappeared out of thin air.

"Oh my God! It's really a demon girl! Everyone began to talk about it, and Li Wenyuan took advantage of this to sneak away, but he remembered the words of Qing Xiu that day.

"What kind of ...... is this" Cao Xiu turned his head and was stunned again.

The first life, the end.

Everyone was stunned, and Xuankong immediately explained: "What you saw just now is the thunder falling from the sky, which represents the announcement of the soul of death." ”

"Soul of the Grim Reaper?" Zhu Ming's eyes widened, "So in that life, Qing Ke was already a god of death?" ”

"Yes." Xuankong looked at Lu Qingke, at this time she was already slowly recovering her emotions, but this life is just a transition, and the real pain is still to come.

Lu Qingke's eyes were slightly red, she took a deep breath and continued to look back.
