Chapter Seventy-Nine: Out of Control (1)
/p> turned out to be Tsing Yi. It turned out to be Tsing Yi.
Lu Qiming looked at the young man opposite, and there was no joy of reunion after a long absence, only a bland, thoughtful scrutiny. After the initial brief accident, he quickly deduced in his mind what had happened to Tsing Yi.
The last time I saw him, Tsing Yi was still a mortal with no cultivation, but the cultivation of painting the Tao is based on chance and understanding, and once he has an epiphany, he can enter the extraordinary. What's more, he is the person who was selected by Yu Wenxuan, as long as the girl wants to, even if she has no qualifications, she can pile up a strong person in the blink of an eye. As for why Tsing Yi was selected by Yu Wenxuan, talent is really secondary, and the root cause is nothing more than because he is related to Lu Qiming.
In the past, Lu Qiming didn't care about those people in the Spirit Alliance using the cause and effect on him, and he had nothing to do with him, and he could help some people, so he didn't think it was a bad thing in his heart. But this time, he suddenly felt a little tired.
In the space of knowing the sea, Cheng Yuan felt Lu Qiming's calmness, which was by no means pretended, and quickly stopped laughing from watching a good show.
"Looking at this thing, the world is impermanent," Cheng Yuan stabbed nonchalantly: "I'm still waiting for you to at least talk about some insights." ”
Lu Qiming had long been accustomed to his tone, and only asked, "What else do you know?"
Cheng Yuan laughed, "Why should I be kind enough to tell you?"
"Facing Lingmeng and Liansu," Lu Qiming asked quietly, "Aren't you on the same side as me?"
Cheng Yuan couldn't believe that this was what Lu Qiming would say.
But this is a fact that Cheng Yuan has always agreed with.
"Yu Wenxuan came to me before," after a moment of silence, Cheng Yuan said: "But she didn't dare to enter the ancient battlefield in real form, so she came briefly with the help of this person's body." ”
Lu Qiming knew after a little thought that the time must have been after he had used the god-killing technique, which also explained why Cheng Yuan left in a hurry at that time, but he didn't point it out. Lu Qiming remembered the purpose of Yuwen Jingyang finding him before, and said, "You are also here to negotiate conditions?"
"No," Cheng Yuan sneered, "they came to kill me—unlike you, they were afraid that I would die of fear, and they must have now recognized the fact that I would never help them, so they tried it at every opportunity...... It's a pity that I thought too beautifully, but I didn't have enough means. ”
Lu Qiming was noncommittal, and said, "Can she still come now?"
"What do you say?" Cheng Yuan said casually: "If I had known this person, I wouldn't have saved the strength to kill him in the first place...... Damn!" He felt the restraint of the Blood Pact Mark again!
At the same time, Ji Mu asked out loud: "Do you know anyone?"
Lu Qiming came back to his senses and said, "I knew each other before." ”
The words were full of undisguised indifference, Tsing Yi looked at him in a daze, and couldn't understand why Lu Qiming was so indifferent to himself for a while.
After learning something from Yu Wenxuan, Tsing Yi just wanted to help him as much as possible, so he came here at any cost. Could it be that he did this himself, but it made him unhappy?
No, it can't be for no reason. Tsing Yi recalled the scene he had just seen that made him extremely angry, and his heart suddenly felt cold and quiet. Looking at the boy again, the more he realized that he had lost so much weight that his originally soft eyebrows had become sharp, almost like another person. In particular, the mark on the center of his eyebrows became more and more red in the pale complexion, and Tsing Yi didn't know what it was, but instinctively felt that there was a very uncomfortable aura in his heart, almost demonic.
Tsing Yi was instilled with a lot of things that he needed to know by Yu Wenxuan before leaving, but after all, the time was too short, and it was not his own accumulation after all, and he couldn't call it immediately when he really met it. At this moment, Tsing Yi looked at Lu Qiming, only feeling anxious, but he didn't know what to do.
After the painting was shattered, Qiao Ji immediately returned to Ji Mu's side to protect him. Ji Mu thought that this would be a dangerous battle, but looking at the appearance of the young man opposite who was not in his mind just because of Lu Qiming's words, the smile on the corner of his lips couldn't help but deepen a little.
"Who is this person, and what does it have to do with you?" Ji Mu was quite interested, and said deliberately: "If I ask you to kill him, can you kill him?"
Lu Qiming's eyes lowered and said, "He has always called himself Tsing Yi, and I haven't asked him his original name." A few years ago, when he was in distress, I rescued him by chance, and we got to know him. ”
"There is the latter question," Ji Mu smiled, "Why don't you answer?"
Even if he didn't raise his eyes, Lu Qiming could feel the gazes of the other three people falling on him. He didn't pause for long, and continued as usual: "With his cultivation, I can't stop him if he wants to leave. But if he doesn't want to give up, he can give it a try. ”
Can you give it a try? Tsing Yi's body subconsciously stiffened. What to try...... Kill him?!
Ji Mu looked at Tsing Yi's increasingly pale face, and couldn't help laughing out loud. He gradually realized that this young man didn't seem to know what the inscription on Lu Qiming's eyebrows meant, so obvious blood contract mark, this person didn't even know it?
Thinking of this, Ji Mu thought about it, took out his nine-string knife from the acceptance ring, handed it to Lu Qiming with a smile, and said, "Hold it steady." ”
Lu Qiming's fingers slowly rubbed over the cold lines of the pitch-black hilt, and he couldn't see what he was thinking.
"You have saved his life, right?" Ji Mu chuckled and said, "In that case, wouldn't it be more convenient to let him return this life to you now?" ”
Lu Qiming looked up at Tsing Yi.
Tsing Yi could barely withstand his indifferent gaze, even though he knew that he could not be such a person.
"......" Tsing Yi opened his mouth, but he couldn't pronounce the boy's name, and somehow he said it was the name he called him many years ago, "...... Lu Gongzi," he said almost cautiously, "what the hell is going on? if there is a need for detoxification or ...... Yuwen, they will definitely be able to help. ”
"'Detoxification'?" Ji Mu looked at Tsing Yi in disbelief, he had never seen such a naïve cultivator, and he was about to laugh for a while, "Do you think I poisoned him?"
"Let's go. Lu Qiming suddenly spoke.
This was the first thing he took the initiative to say to Tsing Yi today.
Lu Qiming lowered the tip of his knife very slowly, and stopped the pitch-black long knife on the ground in a supportive posture; Tsing Yi was not sure if his tone had softened a little.
Lu Qiming said quietly: "If you want to help me, leave immediately now, and don't come to me again in the future." Let's assume that I never knew about it. ”
"I ......" how can I think I never know? Tsing Yi breathed a sigh of relief. But he was a person who was extremely bad at words, and he didn't know how to refute it, so he could only try his best to try to make Lu Qiming change his mind, saying: "What I said is true, no matter what it is, there will definitely be a way to solve it...... You'll go back with me first, okay?"
Lu Qiming looked at him with heavy eyes. For a moment he seemed to be about to say something, Tsing Yi waited with bated breath for his reply, but he finally quieted down and didn't say a word.
Ji Mu laughed again and said, "Poisoning, Gu, coercion and temptation, those are all unstable methods, I don't dare to use them." ”
Tsing Yi's eyelashes trembled, and her heart suddenly became cold.
"Blood Pact—you don't recognize it, but you've always heard of it. Ji Mu hooked his lips and said, "I can let him die with an order now, let alone kill someone...... Lu Qiming, kill him now!"
"Impossible!" The moment he heard that word, Tsing Yi felt as if his heart was being clutched by a hand. He was so incredulous that he almost lost his voice, and said with a trembling voice: "Are you...... He's just an ordinary person, and he's never going to make ......!"
When Lu Qiming met the extremely painful gaze, there was a trace of an almost imperceptible trance, and then frowned slightly.
This is one of the friends he met when he was young and carefree, and it will naturally remind people of the brief time when he was in the martial arts. At that time, the young man was proud, he was living a good life, and he was occasionally worried about some inconsequential things. Fortunately, Lu Qiming later knew that that kind of life was just a thin skin like a cicada's wings, and it was very empty. He didn't even know who he was then.
Now that I think about it, it's been like a lifetime away, and even if I can remember it, it's like watching another person's life. Lu Qiming's heart was not very touched, and he was vaguely a little irritable.
Lu Qiming couldn't be sure if Cheng Yuan's body was still watching nearby, and even if he wasn't there, it didn't mean that Cheng Yuan didn't have other means to see this scene. So he would rather meet the enemy than see the old man - just like the scene at this moment, Lu Qiming can not really kill Tsing Yi, but he can't expose everything he hides and cause him to lose everything.
The more important reason is......
After just a slight distraction, Lu Qiming involuntarily took a step in the direction of Tsing Yi, and immediately stopped restrainedly, and a layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.
...... Something seems to be wrong with him.
"What's wrong with you?" Cheng Yuan, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly spoke again.
In the eyes of others, it was Lu Qiming who was subject to Ji Mu, but Cheng Yuan couldn't be clearer that the blood contract had no connection with Lu Qiming at all, and Lu Qiming's strangeness was definitely for another reason.
And Lu Qiming did not answer.
Cheng Yuan pondered his silence that was different from before, and a ray of darkness suddenly flashed in his eyes.
