Behind the tall city gate, an inch-long crack was left on the long street three zhang wide, and the crack spread from the west of the city all the way to the inner city gate. On both sides of the long street, the once prosperous pavilions are left with only a few huge stone pillars struggling to support the crumbling snow-white roof.

When Hua Ruxue returned to Guanyun City again, she saw this desolate scene.

There was still heavy snow falling like goose feathers in the city, Su Yi was dressed in a plain white robe, and the ice-blue spiritual power slowly spread out in his palm, and several ice sculptures in front of him faded away the cold ice that imprisoned them, and fell to the ground on their backs.

Feng Helan and He Yuan picked up the people who fell to the ground one after the other, and walked towards the gate of the inner city, and the corners of their clothes were stained with blue and red. Thinking about it, in order to make those monks who were controlled by Sanshenghua lose their ability to act, Su Yi and the others also experienced a fierce battle.

Hua Ruxue dragged her body that had not fully recovered, and hid not far away and secretly followed Su Yi. She is like a little fox who has made a mistake and is afraid of punishment, while sincerely reflecting on her mistakes, she can't help but have the idea of daring next time in her heart.

She took advantage of the fact that the powerhouses in the Forest of No Return said goodbye to each other and no one cared about her, so she opened the teleportation array and sneaked back to Guanyun City. Since these cultivators at the top level have not pursued the matter of the "secret medicine", why not run away at this time?

If you wait for other uninformed people to bring up the topic of "why Warcraft runs to the Forest of No Return", it will be too late to slip away.

Hua Ruxue Yuan came to say goodbye to Su Yi with the intention of leaving Guanyun City. Ever since she knew that Su Zhi used her as a container for the remnants of the First Demon, she knew that she was an experimental subject in the eyes of the strong, and there were many dangers around her, and continuing to stay by Su Yi's side would only bring him unpredictable dangers.

The moment I saw Su Yi from afar, I couldn't remember the set of rhetoric I had prepared. She thought she had made up a good lie, and Su Yi could see through it at a glance.

In the past, no matter what she said, Su Yi would believe it, even if her honesty was not obvious, Su Yi would not break it. Now, do you want to continue to deceive him?

For some reason, her fox heart suddenly trembled and she felt guilty for a moment.

What she is doing now is inconsistent with her consistent honesty and trustworthiness. In the Qingyu Pavilion, she is a fox that the master looks at differently, and the master always starts a new stove for her, and teaches her in private to be a kind and honest demon beast, and teaches her not to hurt others.

Su Yi also taught her a lot, but he only told him not to kill people and not to kill other demon beasts, because he hated killing.

Being at the center of the killing, he has killed countless demonic beasts every year, and he has thousands of merits, but he has a heart that longs for peace in the world and no more killing. This sounds ridiculous and funny, if there is no killing, where will the merit of the monk soar? But if the person who said this was Su Yi, she would definitely believe it.

Merit in his eyes is nothing but a string of meaningless words.

Hua Ruxue hesitated, and a familiar call suddenly sounded above her head: "Little fox? ”

Without waiting for the flowers to turn around like snow, the surrounding scene suddenly changed from a snow-heavy ruins to a sea of spring milk vetch flowers.

This sea of flowers was somewhat familiar, very similar to the sea of milk vetch flowers she had dreamed of, but she remembered that there was a tree in the sea of flowers in her dream, but there was no one here.

Milk vetch is the most common flower and plant in the field, and it looks purple red in patches, and it is normal for them to be familiar.

After briefly observing the situation in front of her, the moment she found that there was no spiritual power fluctuation around her, Hua Ruxue blurted out two words: "Su Zhi!" ”

No matter how top-level the teleportation runes and exercises are, they will also produce slight spiritual power fluctuations when they are used. Among the people she knew, Su Zhi was the only one who could quietly take her to other places.

"Clever." Su Zhi was dressed in a black robe, the smile on his face gradually increased, and he was grateful without hesitation: "I promised someone to keep Guanyun City, thank you for your help this time." ”

His facial features are naturally handsome, and his smile should be bright. But the black-haired ink robe made his body gloomy, and there was a playful smile in his eyes at this time, which added a bit of evil.

At first glance, he is not a good person!

"Help?" Rao is Hua Ruxue is sluggish, and she understands that she has been calculated again! She was frightened and mixed into the beast tide, thinking about the front and back for fear that her identity would be exposed, but in the end, it was all the calculation of the person in front of her!

It's all up to her! Even if she doesn't do anything, Su Zhi will do her best to protect Guanyun City!

From the time he deliberately mentioned the cause of An Muxuan's death many times and guided her to pay attention to An Muxuan, he had calculated it!

An Muxuan, An Muyun, Ghost Refining Array, An Xiaoer, and Worry-free Wine, all of them are in his calculations. He just moved his lips and willingly pulled her, an outsider, into the game.

What a calculation!

Su Zhi saw that she looked angry, and hurriedly said, "My family wants to make a deal with you." As a token of gratitude, I can answer your three questions before you arrive. ”

Regarding the transaction in Su Zhi's mouth, Hua Ruxue did not care. In her opinion, the transaction in the mouth of the strong is no different from the errand.

"Three?" Hua Ruxue raised three fingers, which seemed to be different from what she said before, "You said earlier that you would tell me why the underworld was sealed and why the demon beasts were demonized, and these are not counted?" ”

Su Zhi glanced at the purple milk vetch under his feet, chose an open place to sit on his knees, and said slowly: "Those questions, adults will tell you." ”

Hua Ruxue lowered her head and thought about it when she heard this, there were many things that confused her, but she knew that there were some things that she should know as a fox.

For example, who is Su Zhi? Who is the adult in his mouth? Why did they choose her as the vessel for the remnants of the First Demon? What's so special about her?

After thinking about it, Hua Ruxue said: "There is one thing, I think about it, and I feel that I have to say it." ”

"What?" Su Zhi tilted his head slightly, and saw Hua Ruxue's particularly serious little face. If he ignored the glint in her eyes, he would probably praise her for being well-behaved and lovable.

He wondered what kind of questions the little fox would ask, and what else was in her head besides the mutilated stone.

"According to An Xiaoer, it is you who suggested that the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming and the Sansheng Flower Demon come to Guanyun City. You have reached a cooperation on the matter of 'bringing the Hades Lord Chu Tang back to the world'. Letting the Hades Lord Chu Tang turn into a ghost clan again is the goal of the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming to achieve everything he can, even if there is no you, he will do it. Therefore, there is another reason for your participation. ”

"As your reward for helping Ghost Monarch Chu Ming, you got a unique thing from him. With the particularity of this thing, Ghost Monarch Chu Ming is sure that you will continue to help him. He gives you the utmost trust until the last moment of your life. ”

Speaking of this, Hua Ruxue's face was slightly gloomy, the reason why she mentioned Ghost Monarch Chu Ming was because she didn't want to be teased like Ghost Monarch Chu Ming.

If her guess is true, with Su Zhi's two-faced and three-faced, it is really difficult to guard against.

Su Zhi nodded slightly, and the smile in his eyes was more real, "I got a fresh thing from him." ”

"If I'm guessing correctly, you got the puppet technique from him, a puppet technique that only a natural ghost clan can fully master."

There are two things that can support this speculation.

First, the Thousand Change Stone, an indispensable material for refining top-level puppets, was stolen, and the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming, who was the best at puppetry, had only made one top-level puppet in Guanyun City for a thousand years. The person who stole the Thousand Change Stone was either higher in cultivation than Ghost Monarch Chu Ming, or he was Ghost Monarch Chu Ming.

The former pointed out that the person who stole the Thousand Change Stone was Su Zhi, and the latter was sure that the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming handed over the Thousand Change Stone to Su Zhi along with the puppet technique.

Second, the puppet technique can only be fully mastered by the natural ghost clan. Thinking about it from the perspective of Ghost Monarch Chu Ming, based on this alone, he was extremely sure that Su Zhi would definitely help him complete the Ghost Refining Great Array.

Su Zhi's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this, as if he didn't expect that the little fox in front of him could guess that he had obtained the puppet technique from the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming.

Hua Ruxue confirmed her guess from his eyes, but she was not moved by the slightest happiness in her heart because her reasoning was correct, on the contrary, her heart was even heavier.

Because the truth of the matter is much more than that.

"And that's not all." Su Zhi squinted slightly, and motioned to Hua Ruxue with interest to continue. He was sure that this little fox would bring him an even bigger surprise.

"On the fifteenth day of October, the night when the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming opened the Ghost Refining Array, you secretly intervened to stop the actions of others to ensure the success of the Ghost Refining Array, which means that you also want the Hades Lord Chu Tang to reappear in the world. The death of the snake vulture and the seriously injured soul body of Sister Ning represent that the ghost refining array has been completed, and the Hades Lord Chu Tang has re-transformed into a ghost clan. ”

"Li Qizhi is a cover for you to cover up the success of the ghost refining array, and the death of the ghost monarch Chu Ming can also be regarded as killing people and destroying their mouths. But combined with the fact that you got the puppet technique, the death of the ghost monarch Chu Ming is not reasonable. With your strength that night, saving the Ghost Monarch Chu Ming was just a matter of stretching out his fingers, and the others would only be amazed by the means of the Ghost Clan's life, and they didn't think much about it. ”

"At first, I thought An Xiaoer had learned puppetry, but then I was told that only a natural ghost clan could fully master puppetry. There are not many people born with ghosts in this world, only the Hades Lord and the Blue Feather Ghost King. Why don't you let Chu Ming, the ghost monarch who has completely mastered the puppet technique, not save him? ”

This sounds like Hua Ruxue is asking Su Zhi, but in fact, she is asking herself, what is the reason why the ghost monarch Chu Ming lost Su Zhi, a life-saving straw?

There is only one answer: Ghost Monarch Chu Ming is no longer unique.

"You've found a second ghost clan who has fully mastered puppetry, and you've got a better collaborator." Hua Ruxue said with a complicated expression, what she was most afraid of was that once Su Zhi had a better partner to work with, she would be abandoned, like the ghost monarch Chu Ming.

"I heard that the previous lord of the underworld had a total of six sons, one mother and one sibling, and they were like siblings, and they would never do such a thing that mutilated their siblings and lost their conscience. You are cooperating with the remnants of the Blue Feather Ghost King's lineage, and your ultimate goal is the opposite of Ghost Monarch Chu Ming. ”

"Why isn't it the same?" Su Zhi wondered, he saw defensiveness and distrust in the little fox's eyes. If the purpose is the same, wouldn't it be more in line with his impression of unloading the grind and killing the donkey in the little fox's heart?

Hua Ruxue replied with a decent and kind smile, "The underworld is sealed, and the ghost clan is already scarce, especially the natural ghost clan. If the purpose is the same, keeping it will naturally outweigh the disadvantages and will become a help. "On the other hand, if you stay, it will only add an additional element of instability to the camp.

"Well, that's right." Su Zhi nodded in agreement with her statement, and he said in a relaxed tone: "He wants Chu Tang to live, but I want him to die." ”

Su Zhi took a deep look at Hua Ruxue and did not tell her that Chu Tang in Yanmiao Village was the reincarnation of the Hades Lord Chu Tang.

Hua Ruxue did not connect Chu Tang in Yanmiao Village with Chu Tang, the Lord of the Underworld, after all, the two only have the same name, and those with the same name and surname in the world do not know geometry.

Hearing the rare sincere words from Su Zhi's mouth, Hua Ruxue smoothed the chaotic heartbeat in her chest, she couldn't understand why Su Zhi was so bent on letting the Hades Lord Chu Tang reappear in the world, and then let him die. How much hatred is this? Turn people into ghosts, and then kill them completely!

She mentioned this just to tell Su Zhi that she knew the fate of Ghost Monarch Chu Ming and would take this as a warning. Until she's strong enough, she'll be on his side.

She wanted to be taken seriously, even as a pawn.

Perhaps in Su Zhi's eyes, her words and the metaphors in her words are very funny. But for her, it's about her life. This is what she decided to say after careful consideration.

"So, what do you want to know?" Su Zhi raised his head and looked at the gray sky through the enchantment, and his voice was mixed with unprecedented pleasure.

Hua Ruxue shook her head, what she should know, Su Zhi would naturally say. What she shouldn't know, it's useless for her to ask.

Su Zhi chuckled, hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a satisfied arc, as if to say: You know each other.

"Before the adults come, I will give you three pieces of advice one last time."

Hua Ruxue put on a look of listening attentively, only to hear Su Zhi say with an extremely serious expression: "First, don't enter the Sword Sect before the Mahayana period. Second, don't put too much faith in the stone. Third, be careful of the Chang Yingyun clan. ”

She has heard the words not to enter the Sword Sect before the Mahayana period, she has heard it many times, and she has no obsession with the Sword Sect, so she can go or not.

But what made her 200% vigilant was the "stone" in Su Zhi's mouth. Is he talking about the reincarnation stone? He also knows the reincarnation stone?

Without waiting for Hua Ruxue to ask the doubts in her heart, she saw Su Zhi take out a sharp dagger with a smile and said to herself:

"Do you guess if you will die if this knife goes down?"

"Why don't we take a gamble?"

The moment the dagger pierced into the heart, a sharp pain swept over, Hua Ruxue couldn't help but clench Su Zhi's hand holding the dagger, and there was only one thought in her heart: I must kill him!

In a trance, she felt that she was lying in a pool of blood, her vision was slowly shrouded in black mist, and a thin figure slowly walked out of the end of the black mist.

Su Zhi bowed his head to the man and shouted respectfully, "My lord." ”
