Chapter 23: Identifying Identity

"Stop!" Just when Zhen Ma was stunned by Xiao Zhao's actions, Zhang Mei's voice came from her ears.

"Senior sister?" Zhen Ma looked at the ugly fairy girl in confusion.

"Taoyan ......" Zhang Mei ignored her, just looked down at the two small seals on the handle of the short knife in her hand, frowning and pondering.

After a long time, the ugly fairy girl finally spoke again.

"You can't kill him!"

"That'...... Are we going to escort this thief back to the mansion?" Zhen Ma secretly breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, she was just embarrassed just now, impulsively, and after calming down, she also didn't want to kill in front of a young girl.

Bai Ya always thought that after Zhen Marriage caught up, he could only break the net.

In fact, in order to abide by the law, these two Legalists even had to stop the bloody knife man from assassinating Lu Yuan, the county guard, how could they have to kill him. At most, he will be arrested and handed over to the government for processing.

Zhen Ma injured him with a sword before, but in fact, it was also to rescue Xiao Zhao who was held hostage. Bai Ya used himself to deal with others, so he made the situation like this, and the sword wounds on his body could only be regarded as self-inflicted.

"Arresting criminals is a matter of quick arrest, and it has nothing to do with us. Zhang Mei shook her head lightly.

"Huh?!" Zhen Ma was a little dumbfounded, and asked with a fuss, "But...... Didn't Senior Sister say before that she must stop the Blood Knife Warrior from killing people and refining their hearts and disrupting the law and order?"

"Well, that's good!" The ugly fairy girl looked back at Zhen Ma, with a hint of a smile in her eyes, "Senior sister, let me ask you, what is the most taboo for our Fa family's protégés?"

"Knowing the law and breaking the law, enforcing the law unfairly......"

"You remember very well!" Zhang Mei said loudly, "I have Li disciples all over the courts, the kings rely on us, the officials fear us, the people respect us, the bandits see us like rats and cats, even fellow sects are afraid of us, why?"

"Just because good and evil, good and evil know that there can be no kings and no kings in this world, there can be no immortals and no Buddhas, but there can be no disorder!" Zhang Meifeng's eyes were bright and she said calmly.

"The Hou Li Men who cultivated the text was born as an official, and he was the correct code for the nations and maintained the secular norms. And the martial arts disciples who practice martial arts practice in seclusion, guarding the invisible boundary between the mundane and the immortal martial sect!"

"Senior sister is talking about the immortal oath?" Zhen Ma asked in surprise, "Can ...... What does this have to do with the thief in front of you?"

"It's the Immortal Oath again......" Bai Ya, who was lying not far away, moved in his heart, although he couldn't move, he didn't lose consciousness, and immediately listened attentively.

The word Immortal Oath, he had heard it in Wang Peng's mouth several times. It's just that every time the Blood Knife Man mentions it, he gently reveals it, only saying that he will understand it when he joins the Holy Sword Sect in the future, so he is helpless.

"Naturally, it has something to do with it, I stopped the Dao Lang before, not to save a filthy county guard. Just reminded that person to abide by the immortal oath and not to cross the line. Zhang Mei said indifferently, "The Immortal Fan Oath is binding on the Blood Sword Sect and even on the martial arts disciples of the Academy Palace, and he and I must abide by it." ”

"It's normal for fellow sects to fight each other, and even lose their lives. It's just that once you join the sect limited by the oath, you can no longer interfere in the affairs of the court. Zhang Mei continued, "And the disciples of Li Wutang after me must not only uphold the immortal oath, but also abide by the laws of the world. If you kill this young man, you know the law and break the law. ”

"Hey, didn't Senior Sister just say that fellow sects of the sect fought each other, and it was normal for them to lose their lives and fall?...... What's the matter?" Zhen Ma's eyes widened and she asked puzzled.

"But what if this young man is not a martial artist of the sect?" Zhang Mei asked with a light smile.

"Isn't he ......a sect martial artist? Is the knife washing Lang together?" Zhen Ma couldn't help blinking and looked at the white cliff on the ground.

The Ugly Fairy Gu didn't continue to explain, slowly walked to Bai Ya's side, and Wen Yan asked, "Little girl, maybe my sister will say a few words to your little brother?"

Xiao Zhao hesitated to get out of the way, although she was young, she was very smart, and she knew that this masked woman had no intention of harming Bai Ya.

"Young man, your surname is Bai and you are from Liangzhou?" Zhang Mei looked at the short knife in her hand and asked softly.

Bai Ya's eyes flashed, and he understood, I am afraid that this ugly fairy girl has seen through his identity like the blood knife master a few days ago.

This woman just said a reason, not only to educate the junior sister, but also to tell him. It's just that he doesn't like to listen to it, and he doesn't want to talk nonsense with her, so he simply closes his eyes and ignores it.

"Surnamed Bai, from Liangzhou?" Zhen Zhen frowned, thought about it carefully, and suddenly thought of something, and suddenly stared at a pair of bright eyes, "Senior sister, you said that this little thief is Shiyangji, that, that, that ......"

"Nine times out of ten!" Seeing that Bai Ya ignored him, Zhang Mei was not angry, and raised her hand to throw the short knife to Zhen Yu, "Look at the words on the handle of the knife, the knife caster in Shiyangji is called Tao Yan, if you look at the age of this young man and what he did tonight, it should be right!"

"Even if it's him, but he follows the Knife Washer, or he has already entered the Blood Knife Gate......" Zhen Ma became quieter and quieter the more he spoke.

She knew in her heart that this possibility was very small, but all the disciples of the sect who were born and experienced should at least reach the qi realm, otherwise it would be too dangerous to walk the rivers and lakes. Not to mention the brutes and demons and monsters in the wilderness, even the bandits and horse thieves everywhere may kill them.

And the young man in front of him obviously didn't even reach the foundation, even if he had a knife wash by his side, it was impossible for the Blood Knife Gate to be lax enough to let him out to practice.

"We can't kill him, can't we arrest him and go to the government, he killed the county guard with lynching, at least it's a crime!" Zhen Yu thought about it, but she was still a little angry, she was almost bitten to death by Bai Ya just now, as a martial artist of the Qi Realm, it can be said that she was embarrassed to her grandmother's house.

"Yes, you can, but don't forget that this young man is not a martial artist of the sect, he can only be regarded as a ranger. Zhang Mei said with a chuckle.

"He killed Lu Yuan, which is not a murderous heart, and it is a righteous act in the eyes of the world. It is natural for officials to arrest him, and others can't say anything. But if we catch him...... Aren't you afraid of being drowned by the spittle star when you go out in the future?"

"But I'm just not angry...... Senior sister, why don't you let me smoke a few of his big-eared deaf sons, okay?" Zhen Ma rolled her eyes and asked cautiously.

When Bai Ya, who was lying on the ground, heard this, he was immediately half angry, and silently recited in his heart, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise."

"Don't make a fuss, you go back to the city first, I'll come over later!" Zhang Mei waved her hand lightly, motioning for her to go first.

Zhen Ma was helpless, so she had to stomp her feet, drop the short knife in her hand, and turn away.

The ugly fairy girl turned to look at Bai Ya, and then at Xiao Zhao who was standing aside. Suddenly, he made a lightning move, stunned the little girl, and held her in his arms.

"You ......" Bai Ya was in a hurry, his eyes breathed fire, and he struggled to get up, but his limbs were weak, and he finally fell to the ground.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt this woman. Zhang Mei said softly, "You and I don't agree with each other, I won't kill you, but this girl can't follow you anymore, otherwise you will one day affect her." I will find her a good family and let her grow up safely. ”

"Maybe it's better for Xiao Zhao!" Bai Ya was relieved when he heard this, no longer struggling, and looked at the sky calmly.

"Mountains and rivers meet, I hope you cherish it!"

Zhang Mei glanced up at the dirt slope in the distance with a little deep meaning, and floated away with Xiao Zhao in her arms.

Bai Ya breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, seeing Zhang Mei and Zhen Marriage leaving, it was finally dark in front of him and he fainted.

......

When he woke up again, he suddenly felt sore all over his body and hungry.

"Little brother, you're awake!" a hoarse voice rang in his ears.

Bai Ya was startled, turned over and sat up, and found an old beggar with an unkempt head and a black face standing in front of him. The old beggar was tall, wearing a hundred clothes, carrying a big gourd on his back, and holding an iron rod, which made Bai Ya look very familiar.

"Aren't you hunchbacked?" Bai Ya's heart moved, and he blurted out.

"Hehe!" the old beggar smiled, and there was a crackling sound all over his body, and his tall figure suddenly became shorter, and his back was raised high, and he really became the old camel that Bai Ya had seen last night.

"The carving insect is a little skillful, just to hide people's eyes!" the old beggar said with a smile, "The old man just helped you with your wounds, how does the little brother feel now?"

Bai Ya looked down, and sure enough, he found that the place where his left shoulder was pierced by the sword qi had been bandaged, and other injuries on his body were also plastered.

"Don't get in the way, thank you seniors, I don't know how long the kid has been in a coma......" Bai Ya moved his arm, feeling that the pain seemed to have subsided a lot.

"About half an hour!" replied the old beggar with a smile.

"It's okay!" Bai Ya breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively, "What should I call the old-timers?"

"Lao Yu is the outer deacon of the Falling Lotus Hall, you can just call Lao Tong!"

"Senior Tong is following that...... Is the ugly fairy girl here?" Bai Ya asked thoughtfully, "Since you all appeared here, how is Brother Wang now?"

"Well, the old man didn't want to see the two girls just now, and he kept hiding behind the dirt slope. Brother Wang in your mouth, but what you said about Wang Peng, the knife washer?" The old beggar shook his head and smiled, "That kid's knife skills are okay, but his body skills are too bad, and he was entangled by that official ruffian Ni Cheng, but do you need the old man to help you send a message?"

"No, don't look for him!" Bai Ya hurriedly waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Since Senior Tong was here just now, he should know that I am not a disciple of the Blood Sword Sect!"

"Are you unwilling to join the Blood Knife Sect?" the old beggar's eyes flashed, and he smiled, "The old man doesn't want to gossip behind his back, but the Blood Knife Sect is uneven, but it is recognized by the Liangzhou Sect, and your choice is not wrong!"

Bai Ya smiled bitterly, he could hear from Wang Peng's mouth that the Blood Knife Sect was not treated by his peers, and now it seems that this is indeed the case. This old camel fought side by side with Wang Peng last night, but he also didn't look down on the Blood Knife Gate.

However, he has received a lot of care from Wang Peng, and he feels that the blood knife is not bad, so he is reluctant to speak ill of him.

"The little brother doesn't want to join the Blood Knife Sect, so would he like to go to the Falling Lotus Hall with the old man?" the old beggar asked tentatively.

"Lotus Hall...... Is it a gang of beggars?" asked Bai Ya hesitantly.

"Beggar Gang?" the old beggar was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "It's also close, Luolian Hall does have a lot of beggars, and it's not wrong to call it a beggar gang!"

"I don't want to be a beggar!" Bai Ya was silent for a while, but still chose to tell the truth.

"The little brother is sincere, no matter what, the fate is determined by heaven, and it cannot be forced. The old beggar waved his hand indifferently, "So...... Where is the little brother going now? It's better to let the old decay give you a ride, now the realm of Di Dao City is already a tiger's den in Longtan for you, and you can't stay for a long time. ”

"It's okay, I have Brother Wang's patrol bronze medal on me, you can leave with the teleportation talisman array!" Bai Ya took out Wang Peng's bronze medal from the mustard seed bag and shook it in front of the old beggar's eyes.

"Haha, little brother, your bronze medal is useless!" the old beggar laughed, shook his finger and said, "Have you forgotten? Last night in the county government, you killed Lu Yuan and left the name of the knife washer." If it weren't for that, then how could Ni Cheng be pestering Wang Peng, the knife washer......"

"Huh?" Bai Ya was dumbfounded, he didn't expect a joke to trick Wang Peng.

"Let's go, old decay will give you a ride. When you get out of the boundaries of Di Dao City, you'll be fine!" the old beggar smiled and pulled up the white cliff.
