Chapter 225: Guarding the Heart (7)

Today's events really make it difficult for me.

Not to mention that I already have a heart of regret for Zheng Hongwen, I feel that his cultivation is not easy, because of a moment of evil thoughts, he fell into the devil's way, ruined half of his life's practice, and even lost his life, just the current situation of the Hongwen Pavilion is already very tricky, as I said before, if you let the people of the court know that this night walk of the hundred ghosts is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, and the Hongwen Pavilion is afraid that it will not be able to save it.

After Lord Xue left, Xiao Zhuo handed over the Hongwen Pavilion to me, not only did I lead these colleagues to share his worries, but also provoked a lot of right and wrong to make him embarrassed, before the senior sister killed the people in the Hongwen Pavilion, and now there is another Zheng Hongwen, to be honest, I don't even know how to report this matter to Xiao Zhuo now.

In this accident, there were no casualties, which is a great luck, but I am afraid that someone with a heart will seize the handle and put Zheng Hongwen's fault on the Hongwen Pavilion and even Xiao Zhuo, and use the topic to play, which is not good for Xiao Zhuo.

Liu Bozhou's words make some sense, and they are also the best solution to solve this matter, but I still can't get over the hurdle in my heart.

Right is right, wrong is wrong, is it because you want to protect Xiao Zhuo and Hongwen Pavilion, do you have to cover up those sins and ugliness for personal gain?

Because I had something in my heart and was afraid that Lin Suwen would see it, after returning from the hall, I didn't go back to my room immediately, stood in the courtyard, and walked back and forth for a long time, but I became more and more upset.

Thinking about Lin Suwen's injury, he could only go back for the time being, at that time, due to serious injuries and poor spirits, he was sleeping deeply.

I tiptoed to the edge of the bed, sat next to it and looked at Lin Suwen's sleeping face, if it was him, how should I choose?

At this time, I remembered Shen Yinchen.

The person who has been very close to him since he was a child.

When he found out about Shen Yinchen's murder, he did not run away, let alone help cover it up, but truthfully reported the matter to the imperial court.

Although what Shen Yinchen killed was a vicious tomb robber.

Although he knew that the Shen family would be dissatisfied and complain about him because of this, the people of the Lin family did not necessarily support him in doing so.

But he did it anyway.

Have a clear conscience and be open.

In fact, Senior Brother is right, Lin Suwen is a square, elegant, innocent and frank person.

In his eyes, there is only Haiqing Heyan, the reason is clear, and he can't tolerate selfish desires and reluctance, and because of this, he will not be burdened by personal feelings.

After sitting for a while, seeing that he was not awake, I was upset about Zheng Hongwen's affairs again, and when I wanted to get up, he grabbed me.

I looked down at him and smiled, "You're awake." ”

After a pause, he said: "I haven't eaten for a day, you should be hungry, what do you want to eat, I will ask the kitchen to prepare it for you." ”

He shook his head.

I asked, "Did I take the medicine I gave you?" ”

He bowed his head silently and asked, "What are they looking for you?" ”

I was weak for a while, and I didn't dare to tell him that he wanted me to exorcise the demons on his body for Zheng Hongwen, Zheng Hongwen's situation was different from the previous Jiang Caiping, Jiang Caiping was half of himself and became a monster, so the demon nature was difficult to get rid of, and Zheng Hongwen just lent his body and coexisted with the demons, so if he used a powerful spell, it was possible to drive away the demons in his body.

But I've just used the Heavenly Arrow Array, and I'm already very reluctant, if I line up again at this time to get rid of the evil for him, not to mention that the spell is easy to fail, I'm afraid that even I will be counterattacked.

Kindness is never about sacrificing oneself for others, but doing what one can do, and trying to help others on the premise of protecting oneself.

I'm not so stupid to risk a backlash to save a sinner who almost killed the whole city.

Lin Su said: "Father will definitely see the clues of the night walk of the hundred ghosts, you have to be careful." ”

I snorted, I actually expected in my heart that if Shengjing's enchantment was complete at the beginning, with the distribution of enchantments at that time, it would be impossible for the demonic energy in the city to skyrocket so fast, and the only explanation was that the enchantment had been tampered with, and what Lin Suwen and I could guess, Lin Yiqiu couldn't have seen it.

Moreover, when the people of the Lin family followed Lin Suwen to investigate the situation before, they had also seen that the barrier near Beibi Mountain was broken.

This matter cannot be hidden.

"Master Gu, please save him."

Qi Huanzhi's voice came from outside the door, I was startled, and when I looked at Lin Suwen again, his eyes had become meaningful.

I was afraid that he would be angry and think I was lying to him, so I hurriedly said: "They caught Zheng Hongwen and asked me to help drive away the evil in him, but didn't I agree?" ”

Lin Suwen sighed: "It's good that you know." ”

"Not to mention that you have just used the Heavenly Arrow Array, and the magic to expel the demonic nature is very easy to repulse, just the soul spell on your body......"

At this point, he paused: "Be careful. ”

I snorted, and felt that Qi Huanzhi was really annoying to death crying wolves outside the door, so I got up and said, "I'm going to drive him away, chirp crookedly, and don't let people sleep in the middle of the night?" ”

As soon as I stood up, Lin Suwen grabbed me again, looked at me with his eyes, and confirmed again: "You won't save him, will you?" ”

"Of course."

I brushed his hand down and complained, "Why are you like a senior brother, nagging, like an old mother?" ”

He turned his face to the side, fell silent for a moment, and ignored me.

"With your temperament, you always feel soft-hearted......"

Hearing this, I glared at him even more dissatisfied: "You can heal your injuries first, big brother, am I not stupid?" ”

Walking out of the room, Qi Huanzhi knelt outside the door, and when he saw me, he hurriedly said, "My lord, please save him." ”

Maybe he was afraid that I would refuse, and said: "With the cultivation of adults, the use of exorcism techniques to help him is just a gesture, and the lower officials know that he is deeply guilty, and the adults are very disappointed in him, but ......"

Before he finished speaking, I squatted down and was speechless to him: "I said you, I used to quarrel with him all day long, how can you help him so much now, quarrel and quarrel with feelings?" ”

Qi Huanzhi was very embarrassed, and hurriedly bowed his head and said: "It's not like that, just because Xiaguan's courtyard is very close to Lord Zheng, Xiaguan has already found that something is wrong with him, but he hasn't helped him anything, Xiaguan knows that it is not easy for a warlock to practice, if because of a thought, decades of practice will be ruined, it's a pity, not to mention, Lord Zheng, he is not completely helpless......"

He showed me a bronze mirror, which was the one I gave to Zheng Hongwen before, and on the turbid mirror, the demonic flow in his body could be vaguely seen, but there was still a trace of human affection to compete with it.

I took the bronze mirror in my hand, stood up, looked it up and down, and asked, "Do you know that he committed such a great crime, even if we saved him, he would not escape death." ”

After Qi Huanzhi hesitated for a while, he said: "This demon mutiny has not caused casualties, this matter can be big or small, if the adult is willing to raise his noble hand, it will be regarded as not discovering the matter of Lord Zheng......"

I said, "Even if I am willing to let him go, can I hide it from the world as if I didn't find out about his betrayal?" How can the Lin family explain what we can think of, how can they not know? ”

"This ......"

Qi Huanzhi frowned, and said tentatively: "The adult has a very close personal relationship with Lin Gongzi, maybe it ......."

"You're wrong."

I interrupted him coldly and said, "What kind of person Lin Suwen is, you know very well, I would rather take the blame myself than ask him to violate his principles and original intention for me." ”

Seeing his gloomy expression, I finally relented, reached out to help him up, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "You want to save Lord Zheng, I understand, but this matter has to be considered in the long run." ”

"What do you mean by ......"

Seeing that things were still turning around, Qi Huanzhi was very happy.

"I wonder, why are you so obsessed with saving him?"

Qi Huanzhi replied: "Everyone is a warlock in the Red Smell Pavilion, and they have worked together for many days, and they are the following official ......."

I said, "This kind of high-sounding reason, or the province, are all warlocks from one place, is it so important to Lord Laoqi?" If you want me to save people, you have to tell the truth to persuade me. ”

Qi Huanzhi was silent for a moment and said, "Haven't you been sad and worried about our situation?" ”

"Xiaguan has practiced since childhood, in order to kill demons and maintain the righteous path of the world, this is faith, and it is also the ambition of Xiaguan to pursue all his life, but some people ...... It's not wrong to be stupid and ignorant, but if you kill those who are really doing practical things because of your own ignorance, anyone will be angry, saying that they are cultivators who don't care about the world's eyes, but in the end they will still be unwilling, Zheng Daren's anger is not wrong, what is wrong is that he took the wrong path, so the lower officials can't bear to see him fall to today's result. ”

I continued: "Lord Qi has always been jealous and hateful, and he has doubts today, as I said before, for the good wants to be known, this is hypocrisy, we cultivators, the same is practice, but there are high and low cultivation, just like the world, the same people, the pattern is deep and shallow, this matter is inevitable, why because of the selfishness and shallowness of some people, just anger and think that everyone is wrong? ”

"When I was in southern Xinjiang before, I met a girl, that girl is a doctor, when practicing medicine is the same as us, will be misunderstood and slandered, but she still disregards the previous suspicions for people to diagnose and treat, at first I don't understand, I don't understand why she wants to be like this, and then she told me, because she is a doctor, the doctor's duty is to cure the disease and save people, if because of the fault of others, she will go against the original intention, forget her duty, this is more unbearable for her than being misunderstood, the so-called gentleman's way, look up to the sky, bow down to people, keep the original intention, just do your own thing. ”

Qi Huanzhi arched his hand and said: "The teachings of adults should be remembered in my heart. ”

I looked at him, sighed, and said: "Zheng Hongwen deliberately destroyed the enchantment, so that the matter of the hundred ghosts walking at night, I have no way to hide it for him, if His Highness asks in the future, I, as the person in charge of the Hongwen Pavilion, will have to report it truthfully, and when the time comes, whether His Highness will kill him or leave him behind, it all depends on his own creation, and you must also have a number in your hearts, but ......"

glanced back at the door, making sure that Lin Suwen would not hear it, so he deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Don't you just want him to be decent, I can exorcise the demon for him, but the premise is that you have to make him wake up and reflect on his mistakes." ”

This kind of exorcism of demonic nature has a great relationship with the emotions of the body, if the body has changed its past, deeply aware of its mistakes, and completely awakened, then the process of expelling the demonic nature will be easier, and the caster's backlash will be much smaller, on the contrary, if the body is obsessed, and even when casting the spell, vainly trying to resist, then it is very dangerous for the caster.

I'm not stupid enough to risk myself for him.

Qi Huanzhi hurriedly said: "Yes." ”

He bowed to me again, "Thank you, sir." ”

I held his hand, motioned him to get up, and said angrily: "Thank you, let's say it first, I don't want to save him, I just think that his crazy appearance is just a shame for me and Hongwenguan when he is seen, besides, if you can't make him reflect on his mistakes and wake up to his mistakes, I won't save him." ”

Qi Huanzhi said yes again.

I was a little weak-hearted, after all, I agreed to this matter behind Lin Suwen's back, looked at the direction behind me, and explained: "Don't let Lin Suwen know about this matter, and besides, he is recuperating from his injuries recently, you don't have anything to do here to disturb him, what's the matter, send someone to call me, understand?" ”

Qi Huanzhi also looked at Lin Suwen's door, and immediately understood, and gave me a salute.
