Xu is Su Huaixin felt that no one would enter this courtyard, and he did not restore the broken doors and windows, and still retained the appearance of the contract beast rushing out that day.

From the walls, to the doors and windows, to the boards. The formation is right under the house.

The group went down the stone stairs, and at the corner, the ever-bright lamp illuminated the entire basement, and Su Huaixin was holding a long sword against the iron cage in front of him.

Jiuyuan's sword came out, and the long sword in Su Huaixin's hand fell in response, making a crisp sound, and the iron cage in front of him was locked with a pitch-black demon beast.

Xu was frightened, and the demonized demon beast suddenly became several times larger, and rushed towards him.

At this moment, countless chains sprouted from the cage, binding the demon beast firmly and unable to move.

"I didn't expect you guys to come so quickly." Su Huaixin held the cage to stabilize his figure, his voice was weak, and his face was as pale as a crumpled piece of white paper.

He did not see him for a day, but he was thirty years old.

Jiu Yuan returned to the sheath, Su Yi walked up to him, and said, "Do you know the guilt of letting the contract beast hurt people?" ”

The voice was gentle and unquestionable, and seemed to carry some pity.

Pity what? For those who have been hurt like Fang Man? Or Su Huaixin? Or is this contract beast in front of you?

Su Huaixin didn't seem to hear Su Yi's voice, his dry hands clinging to the iron cage, and said to himself:

"Ah Zhao! My Ah Zhao has never hurt anyone, and he has never been contaminated with demonic energy, how could he suddenly become demonic? He has always carried that magic weapon, and he has obviously isolated all demonic energy, how can he be demonized? ”

He didn't seem to know why the contract beast had become demonic.

Seeing this, Su Yi gave up the interrogation, split the wall on the side with a sword, and broke a door on the wall to come out.

Behind the wall was a clean room, Fang Man was lying in a blood-colored wooden barrel, his left arm was short, soft and boneless, and it was clearly just grown, his face was bloodless, and his breath was almost none.

It was not much different from death.

Fang Yuan's legs weakened, he knelt down in front of the barrel, his tears couldn't stop slipping, and he shouted: "Brother! ”

When he came, he imagined how his brother had come over the years, probably cutting flesh and bloodletting, because demonized demon beasts had to eat human flesh and blood to survive.

Every time he thinks of this, he hates it, his eyes are bloodshot, he hates why there are demonic beasts in this world, why Su Huaixin didn't kill that demonic beast, why he chose his brother, why he tortured his brother so much!

But in the end, hate comes and goes, and he only hates himself.

He stood in the village every evening, looking at the barrier, hoping that his brother would return.

But my brother is obviously in front of him, in the place where he passes by every day, but he has been looking for it for seven years!

Su Yi stepped forward to probe his pulse and said, "There is still salvation." So he began to treat him.

The smell of blood passed through the broken wall and into the iron cage, and Ah Zhao, who was bound by the iron chain, began to be restless.

Saving people is not within the scope of Hua Ruxue's consideration, she took the butterfly demon out of the clean room to guard in front of the iron cage, and saw that Ah Zhao was firmly trapped, so why did the seventh-level demon beast demonize?

So she asked Su Huaixin, "Why is Ah Zhao demonized?" ”

She always felt that the demonic qi surrounding Ah Zhao was very familiar, a little like the black mist on the Hangao vines, in short, it was different from the demonic beasts she saw yesterday.

Su Huaixin turned around with difficulty, his eyes wide and cloudy, as if he was trying to distinguish who she was.

Suddenly, Su Huaixin's face changed dramatically like a madman, and he shouted hysterically: "It's all Su Huaiqian's fault!" Blame him! If it weren't for him, the longevity pill would be mine! ”

"With the Longevity Pill, you will have the opportunity to continue to cultivate and break through! It won't die! ”

"That longevity pill was supposed to be mine!"

"I'm 2,000 merit short of 50,000! With 50,000 merits, you will not be lost after death. ”

Merit is extremely important to the monk, and 50,000 merits can ensure that the soul will not be scattered after death, so that even a corpse cannot be left. And only 100,000 merits can lead to the Ascension Thunder Tribulation.

But Su Huaixin's words still did not explain the reason for Ah Zhao's demonization.

Just like what he said just now, Ah Zhao has not killed anyone, and he has always carried a magic weapon to isolate demonic energy, or a seventh-level demon beast, which does not meet the conditions for demon beast demonization at all, how can he be demonized?

"Ah Zhao, I'm sorry, I can't help it. If I die, you must also die. ”

His tone suddenly weakened, revealing a look of nostalgia and expectation, and a cloudy liquid flowed from the corner of his eye.

"Ah Zhao! Ah Zhao! Are we still as good as ever? ”

"When we left Qingyang Mountain, we lived in your favorite cave, and planted a row of green pears, your favorite green pears, crisp and sweet, do you remember?"

Su Huaixin staggered closer to the big bird called Ah Zhao, it was wrapped in demonic energy, revealing only a pair of scarlet, irrational eyes, and it could no longer see its original appearance.

It stretched its wings, trying to break free from the chains on its body, if it broke free from the chains, not to mention a few of them, even if there was no one in the entire Qingyang Mountain, no one could escape.

Hua Ruxue turned her head to look at Su Yi, Su Yi was still healing Fang Man's injuries, he didn't seem to be worried that Ah Zhao would escape at all, and Su Ye Fang Yuan stayed aside.

Su Zhi clenched his fists, his eyes were struggling, puzzled, sad and regretful, he seemed to have seen what would happen next, or he had seen it a long time ago.

The butterfly demon turned around and didn't look at Ah Zhao, but the silver snake was excited, as if this scene in front of him was a rare happy event.

Why aren't people afraid?

The next moment, there was a sound of bones being bitten and creaking not far away, and Su Huaixin was swallowed half of his body by Ah Zhao.

Closer, she could see how many teeth in Ah Zhao's mouth were as sharp as the tip of a knife, neatly polished by food, and as the flesh swallowed into her abdomen, the demonic energy on Ah Zhao's body seemed to weaken a little, but the longing in her eyes was replaced by indescribable madness.

Not surprisingly, Ah Zhao became stronger, he flapped his wings slightly, and the chains on both sides were as thin as tofu.

Hua Ruxue took a few steps back to protect Su Yi and the others behind her, perhaps under their influence, in the face of such a dangerous Ah Zhao, she was not even half afraid in her heart.

Immediately after, Ah Zhao broke free from the cage and shouted at the sky, the sharp sound stimulating her mind, almost piercing her ears.

After a breath, he withdrew his wings, closed his eyes as if he had completed his mission, and fell to the ground with a thud, his massive body shrinking into a mass.

After the demonic qi collapsed, she saw clearly that it was a colorful literary bird with a green back.

It turned out that there were only two endings of the demonization of the contract beast, one of which was killed by the contractor; Second, they will die together with the contractor.

The butterfly demon said that there is only one way to die when the demon beast is demonized, which is true. Even if there were no monks to kill them, they would have died because they had not eaten flesh for a long time.

The demonization of contract beasts is the only way to die.

Su Huaixin did not say the reason for Ah Zhao's demonization, nor did he say why he did not kill Ah Zhao. Isn't it the duty of a monk to slay demons and defend the world? But he injured many people for the demonized contract beast.

People will always be soft-hearted and kind-hearted, and these emotions will cause them to feel so conflicted that they forget their original purpose.

There is no such thing as soft-heartedness and kindness in the world of demon beasts, death is just a sparse and ordinary thing, and sacrificing a few to preserve the majority is their way of survival.

If it were her, she would definitely kill Ah Zhao without hesitation. On the one hand, he prevented his cultivation from regressing and was killed by Ah Zhao, and on the other hand, he prevented Ah Zhao from hurting others.

"Little Butterfly, do you know why Ah Zhao is demonized?" Hua Ruxue asked.

The butterfly demon flew up from her shoulder, stopped above Ah Zhao, and sprinkled a lot of golden pollen to cover him, and only after doing this did he slowly speak:

"For monks, merit is extremely important, merit can only be obtained by killing demons, killing a seventh-level demon beast can obtain two hundred merits, but killing a seventh-level demonic beast can obtain two thousand merits."

"Two hundred, two thousand. There is such a big difference between the monster and the demon beast. "Xiao Shi mentioned merit last night, she just knew about the existence of merit, but she didn't expect that demons and demons are not the same at all.

"How capable are demon beasts, demon beasts below the third level don't even have the qualifications to come out of Qingyang Mountain, and when they come out, they are also dead souls under the claws of demon beasts. Killing demon beasts below the second level doesn't even count merit, and it is precisely because of this that many monks fatten up our demon beasts and then kill them. ”

"Fatten up and then kill?" What do you mean? It won't be what she thinks!

"Well, that's what you think. Regarding the killing and retention of demon beasts, they have been divided into two factions since ancient times, one is our Qingyang Su clan, friendly demons and evil demons. One faction is the Su Shang Ying clan, and the evil is exhausted. Since the contract with the demon beast appeared, there has been another faction - the demon led by the Chang Yingyun clan has made the best use of it. ”

"Make the most of it?" Hua Ruxue was stunned in place, it turned out that in addition to the good demon friends of the Qingyang Su clan, the evil demon and the Su Shang Ying clan's evil elimination were exhausted, and there was actually a third demon to make the best use of it.

Combined with what the butterfly demon just said, "fatten up and then kill", she probably understood that this was to raise the demon beast and fatten it, and then kill it.

"That's right! Chang Yingyun's reputation in the monk world has always been extremely bad, I heard that they have a magic weapon in their hands that can temporarily store demonic energy, demonic qi is useless to people, and can only demonize demon beasts. They relied on this magic weapon to demonize their contract beasts and then kill them in order to obtain the most merit. ”

The butterfly demon said it easily, this is not a secret, it is something that all monks know, and most demon beasts also know.

"Therefore, in order to obtain two thousand merits, Su Huaixin demonized Ah Zhao through the magic weapon of the Chang Yingyun clan."

No wonder when they heard the demonization of the seventh-level demon beast at that time, Su Yi and Su Zhi were only shocked for a moment, and quickly accepted this fact.

They knew that they could demonize the seventh-level demon beast through the magic weapon of the Chang Yingyun Clan, and the news that shocked them at that time was that the elders of the Qingyang Su Clan had actually disobeyed them and thrown themselves into the Chang Yingyun Clan.

"Don't worry, the Qingyang Su clan is different from those people, and they won't do that to us! My master I know best! ”

As he spoke, the butterfly demon fluttered its wings and flew towards Su Ye, landing on the tip of his nose, and he didn't know what he whispered, causing Su Ye to snort coldly and turn around.

Hua Ruxue's gaze unconsciously stayed on Su Yi, remembering the glint in his eyes when he talked about Wuwei Sword and the ancestor of the Su family.

He should be like the patriarch. Good demons are friends, and evil demons are eliminated.
