Chapter 22: The Grace of Not Killing
Inside the Qingyun Gate, the eaves of the medicine house are not too high, but they can also make the twilight mountain scenery lie on it leisurely, and he rests his hands behind his head and lies on the eaves.
A huge bright moon hung high in the air, clear, bright and cold.
I didn't seem to have seen such a scenery when I was in the imperial city before, and I didn't have the heart to look up at this bright moon.
"Jade Prince?" Yu Yu's soft voice came from under the medicine house, and she looked down at the sound of the twilight mountain view, and saw Yu Wu wearing her cloak, simply curling her hair with a plain hairpin, and was standing at the door of the medicine house looking up at her.
"Why did you come out so late?" Twilight Mountain View jumped from the eaves and stood firmly in front of her.
"I can't sleep when I wake up, and I don't sleep when I come out to see that you haven't slept either." Yu Yu gathered the cloak on her body, her thin body could not support the heavy cloak, and she had to close the collar with her hands.
Twilight Shanjing subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to help her, but her wrist was just raised but retracted with restraint, and she turned her head to look at the moon and diverted the topic, "The moon is clear tonight, very good." ”
"Well," Yu Yu replied lightly, but instead of looking at the moon in the sky, she looked at the moon in the water, "When I was at home before, my favorite thing was the moon." ”
The wind at night was a little cool, but the quiet atmosphere between the two was like a trickle of spring warming.
"Yo, you two admire the moon." Ye Su's voice sounded, and she leaned her head between the two of them, and her body was sideways between the two.
"Night girl," Yu Yu took a step to the side to make way for her, thinking of the sword that had been shattered by the demonic qi, her face looked apologetic, "Your sword..."
"It's okay, I can't blame you for such a big thing. And fortunately, my sword doesn't have a sword spirit, so it's good to send it to the Holy Forge Division for repair. Ye Su waved his hand, turned his head and looked at the two of them left and right, "But I have a better look here than the moon, can you come with me?" She beckoned and headed northwest.
Hearing this, Yu Wu looked at Du Shanjing and raised her eyebrows, Du Shan crossed her hands around her chest, and when she received Yu Yu's signal, she turned her head and turned her body, and followed with Yu Shan.
Ye Su took them out of the medicine house and entered the teleportation array inside the door, and after going out, Yu Wu found that there were hexagonal lanterns floating in the air outside, and they were spontaneously wandering around, like some kind of formation.
"Don't let them go, it's a lot of trouble." Ye Su lowered her voice, "Come on, come and eat this." She gave each of them an invisibility elixir to eat, and sneakily went around, and finally came to a large hall completely carved from the cold stones of the Tianshan Mountains.
"Come this way." Ye Su obviously didn't plan to let them go through the main entrance, she skillfully walked into a path and climbed the rockery, waving to them.
Yu Yu looked at the rockery that was not high or not, and began to climb up, and the twilight mountain view followed her, her hand raised slightly, ready to support her at any time.
When they all went up, the twilight mountain view followed, so the three heads hid behind the rockery and looked inside by the moonlight.
In the torture hall, Li Jinnian knelt in the center of the beast face is engraved, she lowered her head, but she could still see that her face was ruined, and her cheeks were covered with black lines from left to right.
The four elders each stood on one side, and the second elder stood in front of Li Jinnian, his expression solemn and majestic, just like the king of the clay sculpture in the temple in the mortal world.
"I, I really didn't mean to." Li Jinnian was trembling all over, he had already cried hard, and his voice became hoarse, "I was running and running, and I fell into a cave, and that thing entangled me." ”
"So you killed them all?" The second elder's voice was not angry and arrogant, which frightened Li Jinnian and hurriedly denied it.
"I didn't, I didn't kill it, it killed it, how could I kill them?"
At this time, Qing Que said lightly: "That group of people did a lot of evil, they were the ones who made the first move, and it was just a matter of killing them." ”
They didn't care about these either, she said a lot of words to clear their names, and the only thing that was useful to them was to know where that demonic qi was formed, not far from the forbidden land of Luo Yu Sect.
Today's five major sects, Qingyunmen, Cangmingguan, Chongming Sect, Qiyin Sect, and Cangling Sect.
Luo Yuzong is a little-known small sect in front of the five major sects, the mountain is small, and there are even few demons nearby, I didn't expect the demonic qi to appear there.
Now what they wanted to know was what they had done in Lingqiu Mountain, and where the Pivotal Mirror was.
"What did you do in the Demon Qi Enchantment?" The Fourth Elder asked.
"I, I don't know," Li Jinnian covered her head with tears in her eyes, even if it was now, she still insisted that Yu Yu would not let go, she cried and said: "I wanted to go in to help her, but who knew that as soon as I went in, she stabbed me, and then I didn't know anything." ”
Because she hadn't seen Yu Wan since she woke up, nor had she seen the twilight mountain view, and she had seen the powerful power of the Demon Dao, not to mention absorbing the power of mortals and scattered cultivators along the way, she was sure that they would not survive in the hands of the Demon Dao.
There was silence in the torture hall, and the four elders looked at her with pitiful eyes, and shook their heads slightly, "When will you regret it?" ”
"I didn't, I'm telling the truth." Li Jinnian cried and argued, and kept wiping his tears.
Haosang looked at her with half-lowered eyes, and without raising his eyelids, he said, "Since you're here, come in and confront her face to face." ”
As soon as the three people hiding outside heard this, they retracted their heads behind the rockery with a brush, Ye Su covered his mouth, suppressed his voice to the lowest, and whispered: "It's over, it's over." ”
She was about to slip away, when Qing Que's helpless voice sounded, "Don't hide, you three, come in through the main entrance." ”
Yu Wu and Du Shanjing looked at Ye Su with inquiring eyes, only to see Ye Su's eyes closed, looking heroic and righteous, she slapped her thigh and stood up, and read a sentence loudly: "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold!" "Take a big step forward.
Ye Su walked in the front, Yu Wu and Du Shanjing obediently followed behind her, only to see Ye Su laugh dryly, and salute them one by one, "Master, Master, acting head, second elder, fourth elder." ”
"Hmph." The second elder shook his sleeves loudly, "In the middle of the night, the third watch doesn't sleep or practice, and runs around avoiding my patrol array, where is there half a rule." He said and glared at Qingque.
Qing Que didn't pick up the words of the second elder, looked straight at Yu Yu and asked, "You also heard it just now, is what she said true?" ”
Hearing this, Ye Su immediately took a step back and retreated behind Yu Wu, closing her mouth and saying nothing.
And the moment Li Jinnian saw Yu Wu and the twilight mountain scene, his face suddenly turned pale, and he forgot to cry, and looked at them with wide eyes.
How is that possible, how can they still be alive?!
Li Jinnian sat on the ground and couldn't say a word for a long time.
"I stabbed her with a sword, but she did it first and wanted to kill me," Yu said calmly, and there was no fluctuation in her tone, "And I think, since you know me, I'm afraid you have a sense of God." ”
When he saw her appear, Li Jinnian was already flustered.
Once a lie is exposed, it will take countless lies to fulfill, and in the current situation, Li Jinnian obviously can't find more lies.
She panicked, trembling all over, crawled forward with her hands and feet, pulled the corners of her clothes and begged for mercy in a trembling voice, "I really didn't mean to, I'm ready to go home, it's my ghost, it's me who doesn't know what to do, just let me go, please, please open the net, please let them not kill me, don't kill me, I didn't fall into the devil." ”
Yu Yu looked at her silently, took a step back, and pulled the hem of her skirt out of her hand.
From beginning to end, no one said that they would kill her, and no one said that she had entered the demonic path.
Yu Yu never said that she was going to kill her, and she panicked like this, it was nothing more than that the 'ghost' in her heart was too big, and knowing that the mistakes she made were enough for Yu Yu to take her life.
"Please, you spare my life, and I will repay you in every way in the future." Li Jinnian lay on the ground and cried and went to grab Yu Wu's skirt again, Yu Wu simply walked behind Ye Su, she raised her eyelids and looked at the people present, the four elders did not speak, as if waiting for her to make a final decision.
"I won't kill you," Yu Wu finally spoke, her eyes lowered, her voice soft and indifferent, "But the crime of your collusion with the Demon Dao must be condemned by Qingyunmen." ”
