Chapter Seventy-Five: Killing Stops Killing
The fox demon died, and was burned to a fine pulp of ashes by a fire.
Tao Yao took out a snow pigment pa, which was given to her by the immortal and treasured by her. Then, slowly, she picked up the ashes of the fox demon little by little in Supari and wrapped them in her sleeves. When she gets out, she wants to bury the little fox demon under a peach tree full of peach blossoms.
After a while, Lu Li knocked on the door and came in: "Senior Sister Tao, where is the fox demon?" β
"Dead."
"Huh?" Lu was shocked.
Tao Yao lazily hooked the corners of her mouth, and asked with a smile: "What are you surprised about?" She's a demon, and death is her only place to be, isn't it? β
"......" Lu Li was embarrassed and looked away at a loss, and then he saw the little junior brother of the Tao family who was still fainting on the ground, "Senior Sister Tao, what should you do with him?" β
Killing intent swept across her eyes, she didn't want to let go of the Peach family, none of them.
Killing people is just a nod of skill, and if he goes down with a knife, he may not feel the pain yet, he has already died, such a light punishment is too shallow for the white demon bones who died in the peach family.
"Senior Brother Lu, do you have a transformation charm in your hand? It's the kind of spell that turns one person into another. β
"......" Lu Li was shocked, glaring at Tao Yao in disbelief, and involuntarily took two steps back in horror, blocking in front of the little junior brother of the Tao family, "Senior Sister Tao, should you turn him into a fox demon and lock him up here?!" β
That's what she thought.
Only by treating others in the way of others can the perpetrator know the despair that the victim has tasted, and only such punishment can comfort the demon beast who died in vain.
However, she thought so, but Lu Li didn't want to, not only did he not want to, he would stop her.
Lu Li shook his head in horror: "Senior Sister Tao, you are crazy!" β
"I may have been crazy, but not now. I've become the new me, and I've never been more awake than I am at this moment, knowing what I'm going to do. β
If there is injustice in the sky, if everyone is a bystander, and only if the injustice is the snow on the eaves of others, and no one is willing to sweep it, then this injustice is not injustice, but justice.
After a long time, no one will even remember that this duke was once unfair.
She doesn't want to be a savior, but it's not that she can't be a savior.
Tao Yao hooked the corners of her mouth, revealing a calm and calm smile: "Lu Li, don't forget, the master said before leaving, let you listen to me in everything." β
Lu Li shook his head resolutely: "No." Senior Sister Tao, I can listen to you for anything, but I can't harm people. β
The calmness on Tao Yao's face turned cold, but the curvature of the corners of her mouth rose higher, because her mood was too complicated, if she didn't laugh, she might lose control: "It's not okay to harm people, but it's okay to kill demons?" β
Lu Li was stunned, as if he didn't understand Tao Yao's meaning for a while: "What? β
"Under the Heavenly Dao, cultivators will be killed if they encounter it, what is the reason?"
"Naturally, it's because demons are inherently evil."
Lu Li's answer made the corners of Tao Yao's lips curl higher and higher: "You saw it?" If so, then tell me about the evil deeds that you have seen with your own eyes, those demons have committed. β
"Huh......?" Lu Li's eyes flashed quickly, wanting to say one or two, but he opened his mouth slightly, and he couldn't for a long time. Lu Li, who couldn't answer, was so anxious that his face turned red.
Tao Yao was not in a hurry, she looked at Lu Li intently, waiting for him to answer.
Lu Li, who was being watched by Tao Yao, finally couldn't stand the condensation at this moment, and stumbled open: "It's all like this...... Said ......"
"Both?" Tao Yao really smiled, "It's human?" Is it an immortal? Is it God? Or is it the way of heaven? β
"I ......" Lu Li, who couldn't answer Tao Yao's question again, hastily removed the eyes that looked at Tao Yao.
But Tao Yao didn't, she still stared at Lu Li with all her attention: "You have never seen a demon commit a great evil, but you believe that I don't know who passed it down, and you don't hesitate to follow the rules of killing if you encounter a demon." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Just now, you told me that it is evil for people to cultivate demon beasts as Ding Furnace to improve their cultivation, but you turn a blind eye to the evil you witnessed in front of you, just because the target of the murder is a demon. Lu Li, how biased is your heart?! β
With that, Tao Yao took half a step forward, approaching Lu Li, and the approaching Lu Li could not bear the urgency of the solemnity, he retreated uncontrollably, step by step to the wall, retreated to the bloodstained mountain wall full of torture demons.
There is no way to retreat.
"What is good and what is evil, Lu Li, do you still discern it? If so, why don't you admit that the Tao family has committed a heinous evil? If not, then you are also evil. β
Lu Li's whole person was stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning: "No, it's not......"
"You are."
ββ¦β¦β
Tao Yao took another step, step by step towards Lu Li, who had no way to retreat, Lu Li still wanted to retreat, but behind him was a cold and hard mountain wall, and he couldn't retreat, so he half-squatted down.
When he was still two steps away from Lu Li, Tao Yao stopped.
She lowered her eyes and looked condescendingly at Lu Li, who was trying to escape: "Have you ever smelled the smell of blood on the torture instrument, layer upon layer, I don't know how many demons are stained with the rich smell of blood?"
Do you know what the dead fox demon said? She said that she, as well as every monster beast held here, would be tormented until the last moment, and be skinned alive.
The Tao family would sell the blood-stained fur to the dignitaries of Jimo City, and then burn their remaining flesh and bones into a pot of soup and feed it to the demon beasts in the Great Lake. β
Lu Li, who was half-squatting, couldn't help but tremble, and he looked up at Tao Yao's eyes, in disbelief.
"But even if the fox demon suffered, he still said that this is the deserve of the demon clan, because they are born evil." Speaking of this, Tao Yao paused slightly, and also half-squatted down.
Her eyes were level with Lu Li's: "Lu Li, if you are born evil, you will be a demon, so what is the cruel and ruthless Peach family?" More demons among demons? The worst of evil? β
"......" Lu Li couldn't even be, he didn't dare to face Tao Yao, he wanted to turn his head away, but Tao Yao didn't allow him to escape, she reached out and pinched Lu Li's chin.
Lu Li furrowed his eyebrows painfully, but Tao Yao didn't let go of his hand.
She even hooked the corners of her lips and raised a smile: "Senior Brother Xiao Lu'er, let's make a bet, how about it?" β
Lu Li's face fell into a strange distortion, and he probably couldn't accept why a person could change his face several times in such a short period of time.
Confused, he opened his mouth slightly and asked, "Whatβwhat are you betting?" β
"Transformation talisman grades, there are those that are difficult to break, and there are those that can be easily broken, if Senior Brother Lu is reluctant to let the disciples of the Tao family suffer, why don't you use the one with a very poor effect, give it a try?"
The confusion in Lu Li's eyes was even greater: "Try ...... What? β
What a naΓ―ve and stupid child.
Also because Lu Li at this moment is too much like a stupid dog, she reached out and touched Lu Li's head, like touching a stupid dog: "Although I want you to turn the little junior brother of the Tao family into a fox demon, as long as your transformation charm is extremely ineffective and breaks at the first touch, then he won't suffer too much, right?" β
Lu Li nodded incomprehensibly: "Right?" β
Tao Yao let go of Lu Li, then got up, slowly retreated, and only stopped when she retreated to the little junior brother of the Tao family.
She opened her mouth at the dazed and ignorant Lu Li, and then raised her foot vigorously and stepped on the fingers of the little junior brother of the Tao family: "I want to bet with Senior Brother Lu, even if the transformation talisman is broken at the touch of a touch, the Tao family will still torture the people under my feet to death." β
ββ¦β¦β
"Bet?"
Lu Li's face turned pale suddenly, and he couldn't speak at all.
No matter how miserable the demon is, he deserves it, so what about people? When Lu Li saw with his own eyes that the Tao family humiliated a living person to death like a demon, could he still stop her in front of him and block her murderous heart?
"Senior Brother Lu, it's time for you to turn him into a fox demon."
ββ¦β¦β
"Remember to strip him naked and burn his clothes."
ββ¦β¦β
"And the chains, don't forget to put them on."
ββ¦β¦β
"By the way, by the way, he will whip a dozen more whips, his skin is too smooth, so he used the transformation talisman, and it was all flawed."
ββ¦β¦β
"Oh, by the way, I remember that Senior Brother Lu is a Jin Dan cultivator?"
Tao Yao, who had been talking to herself for a long time, seemed to notice Lu Li's shock, she slowly walked back to the mountain wall, and stretched out her hand to Lu Li: "Why haven't you gotten up yet?" β
"......" Lu Li was about to cry in fright.
"Giggles...... Tao Yao laughed, reached out to touch Lu Li's head, and comforted, "Little Lu'er's junior brother is not afraid, as long as the junior brother is obedient, the senior sister can still be very gentle." β
A tear dripped from the corner of Lu Li's eyes, he silently pulled out a talisman from his sleeve, and then flicked it with his fingertips, and the rune paper flew down to the little junior brother of the Tao family, and in an instant, he became the appearance of a fox demon.
Tao Yao turned around and nodded, "The rest will be handed over to Senior Brother Lu." β
After speaking, Tao Yao walked to the door: "It's late at night, I'm very tired, go back to sleep first, junior brother, please come on~"
"Senior Sister Peach!" Lu Li hurriedly shouted to Tao Yao, "He has become a fox demon, but who will replace him and go back with those peach families?" β
Tao Yao turned her head and smiled coquettishly: "You." β
ββ¦β¦β
"With Senior Brother Lu's cultivation in the later stage of Jin Dan, it shouldn't be a problem to hide from a few little disciples of the Tao family. It just so happened that Senior Brother Lu had illusions about the Tao family, so he would stay with the illusions for a while, so as not to have no way to remember when the illusion was shattered. β
After speaking, Tao Yao walked out of the room without looking back.
She was tired, but she wasn't ready to leave the forbidden land and go back to sleep in Taoranju, she was just using this as an excuse to do another very important thing.
When you go out of the room, you will find the way back to the circular basement on the left, and you will not know where to go on the right. Tao Yao stretched out his hand, tore off an isolation charm on the road, stuck it on his body, and then walked towards the right side where he didn't know where to go.
"Phoenix girl, are you sure there is a big demon here?"
"Hmm......" the Phoenix Girl replied weakly.
It is full of isolation charms, and the effect of the spell is very strong, but the weak Phoenix Girl can still sense the breath of the big demon, so how strong is the big demon that is imprisoned by the peach family?
Hope is a powerful demon, otherwise, how can you destroy the peach family?
A quarter of an hour later, Tao Yao paused, because there was no light further on, she pulled out a change lamp, carried the lamp silently and walked for a while, and then, she came to a dead end.
There is no road ahead, but there is a long and narrow staircase below. Without hesitation, she raised her feet up the steps and continued down the stairs.
The staircase was very long, and with the help of the lamp in her hand, she saw that the mountain walls were covered with more isolation charms, so many that many of them fell from the walls.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of chains tugging in the darkness, dull, shocking, and chilling in the back molars. In addition, there seems to be a voice of someone talking, but the voice is too thin, and Tao Yao is not sure if it is her illusion.
