Chapter 97: Conspiracy (2)
Jiang Yu happened to see the scene just now, heard Zhu Changqin's roar, and hurriedly ran back.
The Zhufeng disciples quickly chased after him, and Li Qingyuan jumped and immediately blocked in front of Jiang Yu. When he saw that it was Jiang Yu, he was stunned and said, "It's you!"
Jiang Yu did not panic, and saluted respectfully: "Senior brother, Jiang Yu is just passing by, disturbing the senior brother to get rid of the demon is really a crime and deserves death, Jiang Yu will leave by himself." β
Only then did Li Qingyuan react, and hurriedly blocked Jiang Yu's way: "Did you hear everything?"
Jiang Yu denied: "What did Senior Brother say, I didn't hear anything!"
Zhu Changqin didn't know that it was Jiang Yu, and he was already standing in place and yelling impatiently: "Li Qingyuan, what are you still rubbing, don't bring him over." β
"Oh, right away. β
Li Qingyuan answered, and then dragged Jiang Yu towards Zhu Changqin, reminding as he walked: "Senior Brother Jiang, are you just passing by, or are you plotting against you, Senior Brother will know by himself, let's go!"
Jiang Yu did not resist, and let Li Qingyuan drag him, and the light in his eyes appeared.
"It's you. Zhu Changqin was also very surprised that Jiang Yu was able to find this place in such a short period of time.
Jiang Yu returned to his original state, and said respectfully: "Senior brother, Jiang Yu didn't hear anything, didn't see anything, please let me go!"
His words were clearly three hundred taels of silver here, and the killing intent in Zhu Changqin's eyes was prominent, so he didn't say anything, and directly drew his sword and hit Jiang Yu's heart. Even if it wasn't for killing people, he would have wanted to kill him a long time ago, and it was the right time to do it at this time.
Jiang Yu hurriedly flashed to the side, and fell to his knees with a 'poof': "Senior brother, please spare me!" Jiang Yu promised that what he saw today would never be known by anyone other than a few of us. β
Zhu Changqin was stunned again, just now he obviously tried his best to strike, but he easily dodged, Jiang Yu is not a simple person! Looking at Jiang Yu kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, his doubts were slowly dispelled, maybe he thought too much!
"Only the dead can keep secrets, and if you see things you shouldn't see, and listen to things you shouldn't hear, you can't complain about me. β
Zhu Changqin's face showed a fierce light, and he raised his sword again.
Li Qingyuan had a flash of inspiration, and immediately grabbed Zhu Changqin's sword-holding hand and began to whisper in his ear.
Zhu Changqin nodded again and again, smiling very cunningly, he turned around with his sword, and began to walk towards the barbarian phoenix who had already fainted, and a sword hit the man's chest directly, and a demon pill that flashed bright red light was gouged out.
The wild phoenix trembled, and its body gradually became blurred until it disappeared.
Zhu Changqin took the demon pill and walked towards Jiang Yu step by step, although he was smiling, the smile made people feel like a man's back, and he couldn't live in peace for a moment.
Jiang Yu began to retreat nervously, and Zhu Changqin stuffed the demon pill into Jiang Yu's mouth: "Jiang Yu, your senior brother, I have great mercy, and I will let you go this time, but well, from now on, you have to obey me, otherwise the demon pill of this tiger demon will ferment in your body, and when the time comes, you will become inhuman, and it will not be good if you are not a demon." β
The demon pill can be refined by a cultivator and turned into an elixir to improve cultivation, but once someone directly takes the unrefined demon pill, then this person will become a non-human and non-demon. Such a demon will only be tolerated by people and demons, and his fate can be imagined, either he will be killed by the people in the fairy gate, or he will be hunted by demons.
Jiang Yu rolled on the ground in pain, and slowly, the demon pill began to fuse blood, his face was flushed, and his body exuded red light. He hurriedly knelt at the feet of Zhu Changqin, crying and pleading: "Senior brother, please spare me!
Zhu Changqin snorted coldly, his smug expression was overjoyed, and he took out a pill: "This is the Demon Refining Pill, which I have obtained from refining demons for many years, it can ensure that you return to your original state, and others will never notice your identity as a half-human and half-demon, but the effect of the medicine is only three days, if you want to continue to take it, then you have to listen to my orders, do you understand?"
Jiang Yu hurriedly took the Demon Refining Pill, and after taking it, his complexion gradually returned to normal, and the red light around his body disappeared, and he said respectfully: "Senior brother, what do you need me to do?"
"You kid is quite good, I want you to ......", Zhu Changqin smiled and approached Jiang Yu's ear, muttering in a low voice.
Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment, then replied respectfully: "Yes, senior brother, Jiang Yu will definitely complete the task." β
"Forget the dust, as if over there. β
Just as Zhu Changqin was triumphant about the success of his conspiracy, Ji Nuan's voice came into his ears, and several people looked at each other. Zhu Changqin glanced at the crescent moon who didn't know whether it was dead or alive, and ordered: "Go, don't let them find out." β
Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment and left with them.
Ji Nuan saw the crescent moon lying on the ground motionless, all the previous anger and blame disappeared at once, she quickly stepped forward and hugged her to her knees, and said eagerly: "Crescent moon, what's wrong with you, wake up." β
Yue'er slowly opened her eyes, looked around with difficulty, and saw that her mother was gone, and her tears couldn't be stopped anymore: "Sister, I'm sorry, I ......"
Ji Nuan couldn't bear it, and his eyes instantly became hazy: "Crescent Yue'er, don't talk, I don't blame you." β
The crescent moon was already in a state of dying, Song Wangchen hurriedly injected spiritual power for her, and she opened her eyes again, choked up: "Sister, your things, I, put them over there, that tree, down, yes, no......"
"Crescent moon, are you alright? β
Yue'er closed her eyes again, Ji Nuan touched her little face that still had a trace of warmth, her face was incredulous, who was it? Why didn't she even let go of a child, the warmth under her hands gradually disappeared, and Yue'er's whole person disappeared without a trace.
A small pink demon pill hovered on the back of Ji Nuan's hand, she spread out her hand, and the demon pill fell into her palm by itself. Ji Nuan squeezed the demon pill tightly, she couldn't hold it anymore, and her tears began to flood.
Song Wangchen took her into his arms and comforted: "Xiao Nuan, don't be sad, Yue'er didn't betray you in the end, she kept her nature, you should be proud of her." β
"Forget the dust, who killed her, she's still a child!"
"No matter who it is, he's definitely coming for us, the crescent moon is just a pawn, he'll definitely make another move. Next time, I'm going to catch him myself. β
Ji Nuan nodded, wiped away her tears, took the crescent moon demon pill into her arms, and when she got up again, there was more ruthlessness in her eyes: "Go, get my things back." β
There weren't many trees in the mountains, so the two looked around and finally stopped at a small banyan tree, where there was a loose piece of soil with obvious claw marks.
Ji Nuan dug open the soil, and sure enough, there was her Qiankun bag hidden in it, she hurriedly opened it, and there was no one missing in it, but there was an extra letter.
The letter reads: Sister, I'm sorry, I lied to you, they arrested my mother, forced me to steal your things, and you still have spies around you. But you are so good to me, how can I bear to lie to you, if I still live, you will definitely be able to see this letter and retrieve your things. Even if I die, your stuff won't fall into their hands, hehe!
After Ji Nuan finished reading it, tears welled up in her eyes again, she squeezed the letter paper tightly, threw herself into Song Wangchen's arms and cried. For the first time, she had the evil thought: 'That mastermind, if I catch you, I will cut you to pieces.' β
When he returned to the inn, Jiang Yu was like a nobody, and still smiled respectfully: "Senior Brother Song, Miss Ji, you can find the whereabouts of Yue'er." β
Ji Nuan didn't say a word, handed the letter to Jiang Yu, and then went upstairs in despair.
Xia Lian was walking downstairs with two female disciples talking and laughing. It's good that I can't see this, as soon as I saw Xia Lian, Ji Nuan immediately thought of the spy that Yue'er said, and instantly blocked Xia Lian's way.
Xia Lian was originally angry, but when she saw Song Wangchen behind Ji Nuan, she still smiled and said, "Senior Sister Ji, what does this mean?"
"Say, did you give someone a message and kill the crescent moon? β
Xia Lian was taken aback when she heard this, and then sneered: "Senior Sister Ji, I know that there is some misunderstanding between you and me, but you can't just wronged a good person! You took the tiger demon with you privately, we have been helping you hide it, not only do you not know gratitude, but now you have to come to wronged me, I am really dumb and eat Coptis chinensis, I can't say anything about my suffering!"
"Do we know best if we misunderstand each other, I won't embarrass you because of the Twilight Creek precepts, but you'd better not let me get caught, otherwise, don't blame me for ignoring my friendship. β
Although Ji Nuan is unwilling, she also knows that everything must be based on conclusive evidence, otherwise, she will only be truthful and harm others and herself.
Although Song Wangchen said what he said, the coldness and ruthlessness in his eyes still made Xia Lian shudder.
As soon as Ji Nuan returned to the room, he sat at the table angrily, pounding the table with his fists. She hated herself for being useless, she didn't find out about the crescent moon earlier, and she hated herself even more for knowing that Xia Lian was the accomplice who killed the crescent moon, but there was no way at all.
Song Wangchen immediately grabbed her jade hand, which was already slightly reddened, put it to her mouth and blew it gently, and said distressedly: "Xiao Nuan, it's not your fault, I don't allow you to torture yourself like this." β
Ji Nuan lost control of her emotions again, threw herself into Song Wangchen's arms and cried: "Wuchen, why are you so stupid when you say Crescent Yue'er, don't they just want my Qiankun bag? β
Song Wangchen stroked her long hair: "Xiao Nuan, you are too naΓ―ve to think about it, even if the crescent moon gives them your things, I am afraid that they will not let her go." β
"Did you guess who it was, it's Zhu Changqin, right?"
"Just doubt, don't talk about it. β
"You said that their purpose is us, and who knows your whereabouts and knows my character well, who else can there be besides Zhu Changqin?"
Song Wangchen suddenly fell silent, suspecting that this kind of thing, once planted, would be like a fish in the throat, and it must be removed in order to be happy. When he was in Mofu, Zhu Changqin killed his best friend with his own hands, and he comforted himself by saying that Mo Yun colluded with the snake demon, and Zhu Changqin was not wrong.
But if Zhu Changqin dares to mistreat Ji Nuan, no matter what is right or wrong, he will never be soft. What if you hurt your fellow disciples, what if you violate the precepts, even if you are abolished from your cultivation and become the laughing stock of the world, as long as you can protect the peace of Ji Nuan, what if you die!
Song Wangchen's hand unconsciously exerted force, and his face was already full of anger.
Ji Nuan's hands hurt, she knew that Song Wuchen was really angry, and hurriedly called: "Forget Chen, don't be impulsive, one day, I will definitely find evidence and expose Zhu Changqin's conspiracy in front of everyone, and when the time comes, let him taste the taste of being abolished and becoming a laughing stock." β
This was Ji Nuan's angry words, they never thought that this sentence would soon become a reality.
