"Why did you come out so late? And picked such an ugly sword? ”

When Lin Shouxi pushed the door out, Xiao He held the sword against the wooden pillar, with a small face, looking at the brown wooden sheath in his arms, the simple and unpretentious long sword, and said unhappily.

"I think it's pretty good." Lin Shouxi said.

"What a bad vision." Xiao He pursed his lips.

"My sister is also good-looking." Lin Shouxi said again.

"What do you mean by that now?" Xiao He puffed out his little face.

"Nothing, let's go eat."

"Hmph, if you talk nonsense again, I'm going to betray the teacher."

“……”

Lin Shouxi and Xiao He left the Scripture Pavilion and walked towards the courtyard, Xiao He threw a wooden sign to him, which was the door number of the new room given to them by the old woman.

"Why two wooden cards?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Could it be one? Who wants to live with you! Xiao He said angrily: "Senior brother, I believe more and more that you are from the Hehuan Sect!" ”

Lin Shouxi was stunned, and said helplessly: "I mean, what about the key?" ”

"......" Xiao He was silent for a moment: "The key will be taken to get the wooden card." ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao He was still a little annoyed: "Senior brother, can't you make it clear in the future?" ”

"It's you who think too much."

"What's the ...... I think you did it on purpose. ”

"I didn't."

"It must be deliberate, Senior Brother looks cold on the surface, but in fact, Yan'er is bad." Xiao He snorted lightly, and made a conclusion on Lin Shouxi's morality, and she said: "But it's good to have bad points, it's convenient to revitalize our sect." ”

"Hmm...... My sister is really ......."

"What is it?"

"Deeply aware of the righteousness."

“……”

After the two of them disappeared, at the door of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, Deputy Yuan Sun and Yun Zhenren appeared like three-dimensional shadows.

"Is that sword for a woman?" Yun Zhenren asked.

"Well, that young man named Lin Shouxi said it." Vice President Sun replied.

Yun Zhenren fell silent.

"Is the real person suspicious of that little girl named Xiao He?" Deputy Sun asked.

"Nope." Yun Zhenren said: "The sword that kills people is not a ritual weapon, and the difference between men and women is never considered when casting the sword, where did he see it?" ”

"Maybe they have this custom in their hometown, maybe it's just his one-sided nonsense." Deputy Yuan Sun pondered.

"Hmm." Yun Zhenren said again: "But listening to him, this sword is beautiful and restrained, and it does look like a woman's sword." ”

"And he...... Is there any suspicion? ”

"If he really has something to do with the man behind the killing of the gods, then there's a good chance he's a pawn."

Yun Zhenren guessed: "It was inconvenient for the person behind the scenes to take action directly, so he was inserted into the Wu family in an attempt to steal the power of the god of guarding. ”

"This ...... Is it possible? ”

"He's special." Yun Zhenren said, "I have probed his body, but I have not found any trace of Qi Pill. ”

"No air pills? Is it not condensed yet? ”

"If he hadn't condensed the pill yet, there should have been a white spot in his body, but the center of his spiritual vein was pitch black, and there was nothing."

"How is this possible......"

Deputy Yuan Sun's expression was solemn, and he also began to believe that this young man named Lin Shouxi really had some unknown existence hidden behind him.

"If he's a pawn, do you want to kill him?" Deputy Sun made a motion to wipe his neck.

"Not necessarily." Yun Zhenren said lightly: "If my conjecture is true, then the cause and effect to kill him is too heavy, even if it is me, I don't want to take risks." ”

Deputy Yuan Sun suddenly understood that Yun Zhenren's stay in the Wu family was just to repay the kindness of the old family master, but how could the life and death of the Wu family compare to his avenue? He was reluctant to take real risks.

"Is the real person going to leave soon?" Deputy Sun asked.

"One year later, it will be the deadline I agreed with my old master." Yun Zhenren said: "I have been guarding the Wu family for a hundred years, and it is time for me to be free." ”

"After Yun Zhenren leaves, where should the Wu family go?" Vice President Sun sighed.

"There is still a great son in the Wu family, he is the reincarnation of a true immortal, his previous life is unfathomable, although the son is still young now, he will definitely be able to go much farther than me in the future." Yun Zhenren said firmly.

Vice President Sun thought of the eldest son, and his heart also fell.

The eldest prince was born with colored beads, born with a pure body, unique style, is the reincarnation of a true immortal, and the future is immeasurable. And he seems to have spent all his luck when he gave birth, so that the second son and the third lady behind him are mediocre in appearance and have a bad temper.

Deputy Sun pointed to the direction of Lin Shouxi and Xiao He, and finally confirmed:

"Shall we just let it go?"

"Let Ah Yue try them." Yun Zhenren said.

……

Ah Yue is the number one young master on the demon killing list.

He is extremely fast with his sword, and he can always seal his throat with a sword.

At the same time, he is also a close attendant of the eldest prince, and the eldest prince trusts him very much.

Ah Yue wore a sword at his waist and sat on a rockery, he rubbed the secret letter given to him by Sun Deputy Yuan, threw it into his mouth, swallowed it in his abdomen, and looked down.

In the hall, Lin Shouxi and Xiao He held a lamp and sat on a bench to eat noodles.

In his eyes, the pair of teenagers and girls were as thin and weak as chicks, and he didn't understand why the vice president wanted to give this task to himself, and he was so solemn.

The strangest thing is that the vice president is only allowed to kill one himself, and he can kill anyone.

Such a task was by no means difficult for him, he was not the slightest nervous, on the contrary, he looked at the warm scene of the two people who were about to die, and the pleasure stirred in his heart.

He hadn't tasted human blood for a long time since he actually became a teacher.

Inside the house, Lin Shouxi and Xiao He finished receiving the key and were eating noodles.

"This demon killing courtyard is not big." Xiao He said suddenly.

"How do you know?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, so I walked around when I had nothing to do, and I finished shopping quickly." Xiao He said.

"Do you have any insights?" Lin Shouxi inquired.

"It's nothing special, I just saw that next to the Demon Killing Courtyard is a place called Xiangye Pavilion, which is said to be a place to send sinners, and I heard a few screams when I passed by, which was strange and scary." Xiao He said.

"If I am imprisoned there, will my sister come and save me?" Lin Shouxi asked casually.

"Of course not." Xiao He swore and said: "Senior sister does not stand under the dangerous wall. ”

"Senior sister really has no conscience." Lin Shouxi complained, and then asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Xiao He tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "By the way, I also met Deputy Courtyard Sun." ”

"Vice President Sun? When? Lin Shouxi became alert.

"Just when you were about to come out, he told me about the origin of those locked ghosts, and after that, he disappeared all at once." Xiao He recalled.

“……”

Lin Shouxi was puzzled again, he originally thought that Deputy Yuan Sun had been watching him secretly, so as soon as he touched the sword, this dwarf old man appeared behind him like a ghost.

But he wasn't in the pavilion, but talked to Xiao He outside.

By what means did he observe himself? Is it some kind of supernatural spell in this world?

"What is the origin of those demons?" Lin Shouxi asked.

Xiao He stopped her chopsticks, she approached Lin Shouxi, and said mysteriously: "They, they are the demons that have manifested their true nature." ”

"Demons? What is that? ”

"Inner demons are monsters that breed in our bodies."

Xiao He explained: "Before the demon was conceived, it was an invisible and ubiquitous monster, and you can understand it as an invisible seed. The human body is like soil, which will be sown with demon seeds before we know it, and the demon seed will grow with us, and if it is not cut off from our body, it can even replace our body! ”

"Is there no one who can avoid the erosion of demons?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"Any cultivator has the potential to become a medium for demonic growth." Xiao He sighed and said, "My aunt said that cultivation is a gift from the gods, but it is also a curse from the demons. ”

"Can we see our own demons?" Lin Shouxi asked again.

"Before the heart demon is pulled out, only the host can see it, and after it is really pulled out, everyone can see it." Xiao He relayed the knowledge that her aunt taught her.

"Where did the demons come from?"

"How do I know?"

"Then why are these demons imprisoned, can't they be killed?" Lin Shouxi frowned and asked.

"Generally speaking, they can't be killed, and they will only die if the host dies." Xiao He replied.

“……”

Lin Shouxi didn't ask again, because he suddenly figured out the question just now - where Vice President Sun was staring at him.

It's the demon in the Sword Pavilion!

That was the demon in Vice President Sun's heart.

What means should he have to hook up the consciousness of some of the demons in his heart and make it his third eye, peeking into everything that happened in the Sword Pavilion.

"What are you thinking?" Xiao He noticed his wandering.

"I'm thinking, since the demons can't be killed, then in this world, the number of demons should be extremely huge, why are the evil spirits and dragon corpses our biggest enemies, and the demons that can't be killed shouldn't be more terrifying?" Lin Shouxi asked the doubts in his heart.

"The reason is very simple, because really powerful cultivators can control the inner demon and make it their own helper, and those people can't wait for the demon seed to invade. Of course, it would be a very powerful cultivator. Xiao He said.

"Senior sister knows a lot." Lin Shouxi praised.

"Of course, our sect can't all be stupid." Xiao He said helplessly.

The two of them had eaten and went out with their swords.

They were the chosen ones, so the Wu family did not have too many restrictions on them, and after the meal, they went around the Wu family together. The Wu family is very big, and they will be dizzy after walking a few laps.

Before they knew it, they had come to the door of the main hall of the witch family.

There was a huge mural at the door, depicting a pale dragon soaring through the sky, its huge wings outstretching to obscure the stars, and in its shadow the people bowed their heads and closed their eyes.

Lin Shouxi wanted to ask Xiao He about the story of the mural, but found that Xiao He was standing somewhere in a daze.

He came to her side.

In front of her were a pair of tombstones next to each other.

This pair of tombstones stands in front of the door of the Wujia Hall, and it should commemorate a very important person.

"Do you want to worship?"

Out of pity for the dead, Lin Shouxi asked.

"What is there to worship, and I don't know it."

"What does it matter if you don't know?"

"Hey, it's easy to be haunted by ghosts when you visit a tomb you don't know, so don't meddle with it......"

Xiao He frightened him, then pulled his sleeve and pulled him back to the Demon Killing Courtyard, telling him to go to bed early and get up early to rest.

Teenagers and girls are separated in the courtyard.

The night in the Demon Killing Courtyard is cool.

The white walls in the distance are like a high mountain, and the lanterns under the corridor are like blood-stained heads, and their backs are sandwiched in the middle, like night dew that is about to be blown away by the wind at any time, showing ominous loneliness.
