Chapter 181: Into the Lost Swamp
Su Wen killed Zisang, killed lightly, and killed without scruples, which was not the same as when he let Lou Zhi go.
Although Lou Zhi was the top of the Cangzhou Mansion at the time of the state examination, for Su Wen, Lou Zhi was not much of a threat, even if he survived, he would not be able to cause any trouble to himself, and there was a college teaching supervisor at that time, so it was impossible for him to really kill him.
But for Zisang, the moment Su Wen made a move, she was actually doomed to death.
Compared to Lou Zhi, Zisang, whether in terms of strength or the status of Tianlan Academy, is enough to bring endless trouble to Su Wen in the future, since this is the case, she will definitely not be left behind!
And the most important thing is that there is no teaching in Tianlan Academy here.
Su Wen has long known this.
Because he already knew that the reason why Mu Xi, Zisang, and Ouyang Ke gathered here was to find the relics of the demon clan, how could they let the academy teach to follow such an important matter?
Didn't you see Mu Xi's side and the other three students of Ningle Academy?
Therefore, Su Wen concluded that the three of them must have escaped the sight of the professors or academicians of their respective academies in some way, but they didn't want to, this move made Su Wen's killing intent towards Zisang even more unscrupulous!
After a long time, Mu Xi finally spoke slowly: "You are always beyond my expectations." ”
Su Wen smiled, stood up, and slowly walked back, while Ouyang Ke also sighed softly: "I really don't know whether to say that Su Gongzi is reckless or resolute, and he really dares to kill someone." ”
Su Wen looked back at Ouyang Ke and said with a smile: "I didn't kill her." Because I obviously saw that it was Ouyang Gongzi who had a conflict with Zisang in order to swallow the demon clan relics alone. As a result, I broke out and killed people, everyone knows that I just have a talent for poetry, I can't do this kind of thing, and the other party is an immortal genius of Tianlan Academy. ”
After saying that, the solemn color in Mu Xi's eyes finally faded a little, and a light smile opened from the corner of her mouth.
And Ouyang Ke. But his face tightened, and he said coldly: "What does Su Gongzi mean by this?"
Su Wen shook his head: "It's not interesting, just to prevent someone from splashing me with dirty water in the future." I can refute it, Ouyang Gongzi doesn't have to take it to heart. ”
Su Wen knew very well that the only people who knew that he had killed Zisang were the few people present. So. That's where it gets interesting.
Mu Xi aside, at least Su Wen was sure that Ouyang Ke would never reveal this news, because doing so would only cause trouble for himself, and would not cause the slightest harm to Su Wen!
With the four of them present at the same time, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have believed that Zisang had died at the hands of Su Wen?
In comparison, Ouyang Ke and Mu Xi's suspicions are obviously heavier!
So. The reason why Su Wen dared to make a move against Zisang was by no means a reckless move. But after careful consideration, he had already thought of his way out before he even made a move, and the only uncertain factor was whether he could kill Zisang with one blow.
Thankfully, he did.
When Ouyang Ke heard this, he finally understood what Su Wen meant, and a strong sense of jealousy suddenly appeared in his heart, he finally understood why Mu Xi respected this person so much, and he also knew that what Su Wen said earlier that he killed Midsummer was by no means untargeted!
Before Ouyang Ke could come back to his senses, Su Wen smiled again: "Now that the trouble has been solved, I think we can set off to find the demon relics." ”
Ouyang Ke took a deep breath, but after all, he came from a holy dao family, and his experience and knowledge were by no means very comparable, so he quickly accepted this reality, and just said lightly: "As Su Gongzi said, Zisang's greatest value is that she knows the location of the demon clan's relics, and now that this matter is no longer a secret, then, we can naturally set off." ”
Su Wen nodded, and then looked at Mu Xi again.
Mu Xi's answer was more concise, she just smiled lightly: "Of course." ”
For Zisang's death, Mu Xi is the most indifferent one, this time Zisang and Ouyang Ke came to the door, it is nothing more than the auxiliary power of her piano path, however, this is precisely the reason why Mu Xi is most at ease.
After all, the two of them joined forces, once they wanted to cook rabbits and dead dogs after discovering the relics of the demon clan, Mu Xi had no chance of winning at all, but now it was different.
She has Su Wen by her side, and the other party has lost Zisang, and the situation has been greatly reversed!
Now it's Ouyang Ke's turn to have a headache.
Ouyang Ke was indeed depressed in his heart, he didn't expect that Su Wen's strength was so strong, he could almost kill Zisang in an instant, although he had a strategy for dealing with this person's methods, but if he added a Mu Xi, it would be completely different.
But in a hurry, he couldn't find a partner who could replace Zisang, and if he didn't go with Su Wen and Mu Xi, it would be even more impossible to find the demon relics, so the three of them became the only choice.
At this moment, Ouyang Ke even faintly regretted that he should not have hesitated before, and did nothing about Zisang's death.
Unfortunately, his regret was always too late.
Now that the three of them reached a consensus, Su Wen finally breathed a sigh of relief, he recited lightly, and completely buried Zisang's body in the mud, completely destroying the corpse.
It's a pity that the most precious thing on Zisang's body, the jade leaf, can no longer be used, and most of the treasures on his body can only be used by people with flowers.
After finishing the aftermath, the three of them finally began to march towards the depths of the Lost Swamp, perhaps for Su Wen, the challenge of this trial had just begun.
"Why did the anger on your body suddenly become so heavy?" Mu Xi walked beside Su Wen, her voice full of doubts.
Just because of a few words of ridicule, he brazenly shot and killed the other party, in Mu Xi's impression, Su Wen was not such a person, and even when Su Wen pierced Zisang's heart with a short sword, even she felt a little chill, but she didn't know what the root cause of Su Wen's change was.
In this regard, Su Wen was also slightly stunned, and said that the bystanders were clear, at this moment, Su Wen finally became vigilant, but not to Mu Xi, but to himself.
But he didn't show this vigilance, but smiled indifferently: "Maybe it's because of the reason why I've been fighting with demon beasts in the past few days." ”
Mu Xi frowned, and did not pursue the question, but instead said: "Although you may feel that it is okay to use such means against the enemy, but in many cases, there is no need to be so impulsive. ”
After a pause, Mu Xi continued: "Just like this time, there are many ways to make Zisang soft, you don't have to choose the one with the least way back, if you don't kill her, this trip will be easier, after all, you have also seen the jade leaf in her hand, if you encounter a demon beast that you can't deal with, it will be our last hole card to save our lives." ”
Su Wen was silent, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "Before you started, I didn't know that you were going to find the Demon Clan's relics, of course you wouldn't have any scruples. ”
Mu Xi shook his head: "If you say so, then what you are doing will seem even more reckless, because you don't even know what we are going to do, and you made such a hasty decision based on your own judgment." ”
"Temporary patience is not about dignity, but about the greater good, and even after we find the Demon Legion, it is wiser for you to settle a personal grudge with her than if you kill her directly. ”
"If it had been placed in the past, with the Su Wen I knew, I would never have done this, so I always felt that there must have been some changes in you that you didn't even notice about yourself. ”
Mu Xi's analysis was very objective and unique, and it made Su Wen irrefutable for a while, so he was completely silent, and then frowned, thinking about Mu Xi's words.
It is undeniable that Su Wen's actions this time were a little hasty, as Mu Xi said, this is not in line with his previous temperament, but why is this?
Was it because of what happened to him in the beast mound? Or because of Liang Shan's disappearance? Or because of the attack in the middle of summer, or because of the despair that the fat man was about to die?
Su Wen couldn't find an answer, or rather, every possibility he could think of was very far-fetched, so what went wrong?
Shaking his head, Su Wen pressed this trace of doubt into his heart, and slowly said: "I don't know, when I return to the academy, I'll ask the teacher, now we still focus on the present." ”
Mu Xi nodded, then cast a trace of his gaze to the side and back, and said softly: "The biggest trouble in front of me is this Ouyang Ke." ”
Without Mu Xi's reminder, Su Wen could also sense that Ouyang Ke had a strong sense of distrust towards the two of them, which was of course thanks to Su Wen's previous methods, but the two of them had to rely on Ouyang Ke's ability, otherwise it would be difficult for the two of them to go deep into the Lost Swamp.
"It seems that I was a little reckless before. Su Wen sighed secretly, and was about to say something, but suddenly found a white shadow flashing lightly in front of him.
"Who!"
In such a sensitive period, the estrangement between the three of them has not been completely eliminated, and the sudden encounter with someone else in the forest immediately made the nerves of the three of them tense.
The next moment, a middle-aged man who seemed to be a little lazy flashed out, the feather fan in his hand swayed gently, looked at Su Wen, and said with a slight smile: "I think, you still owe me a favor." ”
Su Wen's expression was slightly awe-inspiring, wasn't this the white-clothed stall owner he met in the Wen Market that day!
