After listening to Li Rui's question, Cen Lanjing did not rush to answer, but asked rhetorically: "Please forgive me, but you have to answer the old man first, you were sent by the source Zhenren?" ”

Li Rui didn't hesitate, and directly took out the token.

Seeing the jade plate shining with the brilliance of divine thunder, Cen Lanjing didn't need to be verified, and he knew that this was true.

"Ah, in that case, I'm overthinking." He arched his hand again in apology.

Li Rui asked, "Dare to ask the old man, what would happen if we weren't sent by the real people, or if we weren't good people?" ”

"Then you will accompany the old man to reincarnate in this illusion until he decays."

Cen Lan Jingyun said lightly, "Little brother, are you still talking about business?" ”

Li Rui felt a chill on his back, and said with a dry smile: "Say, let's talk." ”

Cen Lanjing began to explain his experience: "About a year ago, I surveyed the evil qi in Devil's Crying Ridge to prevent it from backing up. The decay you see of the old days is the result of that outpouring of evil decades ago. ”

"At that time, suddenly a little girl asked for directions for help, although I already felt that she seemed abnormal, after all, how could a normal person appear on Devil's Cry Mountain."

"But the old man observed, and didn't find any traces of the trick, so he still stepped forward to help, who knew that the little girl was a person from the hidden sect, and I was afraid that there was an arrangement of Zuo Qiutian, and I didn't lose unjustly."

He was clearly talking about murderous and dangerous things, but he didn't have any special tone, as if he was just talking about the daily past, and he was obviously defeated, but he didn't seem to care.

Or rather, he felt like he deserved to lose.

"That little girl's kung fu is good, she is proficient in the art of assassination, and I was attacked again, so I was hit hard, and I had to use the escape technique to escape."

"Fortunately, the school palace is not far from the Devil's Crying Ridge, so I was fortunate to escape, who knew that the girl came here, not for the old man's life, but on the top of the Demon Tower, a golden seal to suppress evil spirits."

"This seal is very strange, back then, we used it as an eye, separating the inside and outside of the Demon Tower, and it was a treasure of the pattern space."

"That little girl stole the golden seal while I was seriously injured and many people in the palace didn't care about the Fu Demon Tower. Naturally, I couldn't let her get her wish, so I blocked the way with a serious injury, but hey, the hidden sect is now more powerful than before, and the little girl actually resorted to the means of drunkenness. ”

Li Rui blinked: "So you're defeated again?" ”

"You have to say it!" The old man was in a hurry.

Li Rui was a little strange, just now he said that he was obviously nothing when he lost, why was he in a hurry at this time.

But soon he grasped the key point, the loss he didn't care about before was lost to Zuo Qiutian, and now he lost to the little girl.

Cen Lanjing said: "Although I was defeated, the old man did have a little side way, because the place of the battle was not far from the Demon Suppression Tower, so I immediately came out of the shell with the remnant soul and escaped into the Demon Tower, taking the place of the golden seal." ”

He concluded with a smile: "In this way, I can save my mind on the top of the tower, and I can continue to suppress the evil demons in the tower, killing two birds with one stone." ”

"Isn't it just dead and hiding in the tower, it's quite proud." Cheng Mingyue beeped quietly.

"Say it again!" The old man was anxious again.

Li Rui smiled dryly: "Old man, so, what's the matter with you stopping me here?" ”

Cen Lanjing smacked his lips: "It doesn't mean much, I just feel that the heaven and the earth are reversed, and I don't know what's going on, so I'll isolate you first for the sake of safety." ”

He said: "However, since it was sent to you by the real person of the source, I guess, the situation outside is not good now, right?" Did the Hidden Sect do it? Are you all open? What about Zuo Qiutian? He's succeeding. ”

Li Rui was a little impressed, this old man was in the Demon Tower, and he could guess out of thin air.

"Mr. Dacai, it's true, now Zuo Qiutian has opened the wall outside the realm, intending to open the sky."

“.”

Cen Lanjing was not surprised when he heard this, but lowered his eyebrows, looking a little sad.

After waiting for a while, he asked about the identities of Li Rui and the others, as well as some other details, such as the Five Thunder Law and other things.

"I see. The mines are indeed on Devil's Cry Ridge, but they are not easy to obtain. After you go out, you will look for my disciple Yuan Qing in the Academy Palace, and he will help. ”

"Now, since you have come, I will take you to see something, and come with me."

Mr. Cen Da led the way in front, and the three of them glanced at each other, and then followed.

A few people walked through the huge school palace, and a heavy palace building flew by.

This is not an exaggeration, it is really flying, all kinds of light and shadow are constantly flying by, plants and trees grow and wither, and the cycle repeats.

Finally, when a few people stopped, the dilapidated school palace had gradually become vibrant, and the tower behind it was half up.

There were a few scholars in front of me who were talking, and it looked like they were debating, and it was quite intense.

Li Rui turned his head to look at the side and found that Cen Lanjing had disappeared at some point.

"Senior Brother He! You repeat, don't you really know? ”

A young man who was only about ten years old pointed to the tall man opposite him with straight eyebrows and eyes, and beside the two of them, there was an honest man with a square face who was visibly overwhelmed.

"That's Mr. Cen Da." Cheng Mingyue whispered, she was referring to the honest man who was at a loss.

Li Rui and Guan Gui nodded.

"Ah Liang, why are you so naïve?"

Senior Brother He stared at the young man questioning him, his gaze was impartial, but he could see that he wanted to dodge.

"Childish? I care about the lives of hundreds of people in a village, you call this naïve? ”

Ah Liang's voice was almost choked, but you can imagine the anger in his heart.

"Yes, but how do you choose between the lives of hundreds of people and the lives of tens of millions?" Senior Brother He's tone gradually calmed down.

"Is human life chosen?" Ah Liang was even more angry.

"If you don't choose, don't you need to die?"

Senior Brother He looked at him with a look of pity, but he didn't know who he was pitying.

"Mr. went, I am the head of the Xue Palace, I want to take care of the people who are thousands of miles below the Ghost Crying Ridge, who do you think I want to die?"

"Ah Liang, your life is very simple."

Senior Brother He turned his back and looked at the black and oppressive giant ridge not far away, "You just care about the demons and monsters on the mountain, do you think you can protect all the people if you guard it well?" ”

"But this has never been the case in the world, do you know that there are demons in people's hearts?! If the demons on the mountain don't come down, the people below won't fight? ”

"They always have to fight to the death, what can I do? If I had to choose between a hundred and a million people, could I not choose? Do you think that if you don't choose, you can solve all problems? ”

"If you don't choose, it's just to escape the torment in your heart, they will still beat you to the death, but you choose not to see it, and your heart is not worried."

Ah Liang's angry look froze on his face, staring at the other party for a long time, and finally left lonely.

Senior Brother He watched him walk away, and his face was also angry: "Xiao Cen, did I do something wrong?" ”

The young Cen Lanjing shook his head and said, "Senior brother, I think you did the right thing. ”

Senior Brother He obviously felt a lot better after hearing this, what he cared about was not right or wrong, but support.

But Cen Lanjing said: "But when Ah Liang went to Xiaoxi Village before, he met a girl, and you also know that this child has no father or mother since he was a child, and it is difficult to unguard others, so."

Senior Brother He covered his face with both hands.

"I don't want to choose either." (End of chapter)
