Chapter 13: Between Life and Death
In the night, ushered in the first spring rain to wash the earth, the sky will flash a red light from time to time, with the roar accompanied by bursts of resounding in the night sky, just after the roar has passed, a high-pitched scream resounded through the valley at the Nanshan Hot Spring in the Mixed Yuan Mountains.
"Oh no, something happened?" Several female disciples who were patrolling outside the valley heard the screams and hurriedly ran towards the valley.
The senior brothers who patrolled with Xia Mingfeng, after the lightning and thunder, found no trace of Xia Mingfeng on the top of the mountain, and hurriedly shouted and searched: "Senior Brother Xia"
"It's not going to fall down the mountain, is it?"
"No, then," before one of the junior disciples could finish speaking, he heard a scream from the hot spring valley in the mountain, which resounded in the night sky. Several senior brothers looked at each other and said that it was not good, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the hot spring valley.
At this time, in the hot spring, Senior Sister Li hurriedly got dressed, and at some point there was an extra long sword in her hand glaring at Xia Mingfeng who jumped out of the hot spring, slashing towards his location, hurriedly rolled on the spot to avoid the thrilling sword, and then hurriedly rolled up.
was three meters away from Senior Sister Li, and explained with a bitter face: "Senior Sister Li, this is really a misunderstanding. However, his eyes widened, the whites of his eyes showed a trace of blood, his face was angry, and the long sword in his hand was held even tighter, as if he could hear the squeak coming from the hilt of the sword.
"Misunderstanding?hehe, the first time you just came to the sect and don't know the way, what about this time?" Senior Sister Li stared at Xia Mingfeng with a hint of a smile in her words, but as her voice said coldly, the long sword in her hand finally flashed with a strong light, and as soon as the words fell, I saw Senior Sister Li holding the long sword and rushing forward quickly, and the long sword slashed quickly towards Xia Mingfeng from top to bottom.
Xia Mingfeng stared at the sword in the woman's hand at this time, his heart was full of fear, the speed was too fast, the distance was close, and he saw that there was no way to retreat, Xia Mingfeng quickly urged the demonic qi in his body to help each other and resist with his whole body strength.
I saw a strong light flashing, Xia Mingfeng blocked the long sword above his head with both arms, and blood dripped down the long sword to the ground, but Senior Sister Li was not satisfied, seeing that she did not cut off her arms, she violently raised a kick and kicked Xia Mingfeng in the chest, and a figure flew backwards, flew four or five meters and hit the valley wall and fell to the ground, motionless, Li Qi was about to raise his sword and walk towards Xia Mingfeng. At this moment, voices came one after another.
"What's wrong with Senior Sister Li Qi? What happened just now" Li Qi looked at the person who came and found that it was his senior sister, his eyes suddenly turned red again, and he was about to explain what had just happened to his senior sister with a slightly crying voice.
A few more male voices came: "What just happened?"
"What's going on?" before the man finished speaking, he saw Xia Mingfeng lying on the ground, and several male and female disciples who had arrived before were looking around vigilantly, while the senior sisters looked at Li Qi, as if asking what happened to Li Qi, and Li Qi's face was angry, and at the same time, his face became even more red.
Several senior brothers who were patrolling saw blood constantly coming out of Xia Mingfeng's body, and a figure with a high cultivation came to his side in a flash, squatting down to check Xia Mingfeng's injuries.
"There was still salvation, just fainted. The senior brother pressed one hand on Xia Mingfeng's body and said, finding that the bones in his chest were shattered, and his arms were cut with sharp weapons, hurting the bones. Then he hurriedly took out the hemostatic pill to stop the blood that kept coming out of the wound.
Li Qi found that Xia Mingfeng was not dead and alive, so he rushed forward with his sword and slashed at Xia Mingfeng who was lying on the ground.
When all the senior brothers and sisters were stunned, the senior brother who was squatting next to Xia Mingfeng looked at this scene and quickly squatted up and grabbed Li Qi's arm and lifted it up, and then twisted his arm outward, causing Li Qi's arm to hurt the long sword in his hand and fell to the ground, and the rest of the senior brothers also reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to take away the long sword, and the senior brother who grabbed Li Qi's arm also let go of his hands and asked Li Qi. Senior Sister Li, Senior Brother Xia fell from the mountain, and he didn't break in on purpose, does the specific situation of the incident that slashed him need to be explained?"
Under the interrogation of the eyes of several senior brothers, Li Qi's expression became even more angry, and his hands were clenched into fists, without explaining anything at all. Several senior sisters looked at Li Qi and didn't answer, and looked at the messy clothes they were wearing, and took out a jade pendant and passed it on to their master Wang Jing, explaining the situation here.
The rest of the senior brothers, seeing that Xia Mingfeng was seriously injured on the ground, covered in blood, hurriedly walked out of the valley and ran towards the cave on the top of the main mountain to find Uncle Liu Chan.
Looking at Li Qi in the face of his senior brother's inquiry, he glanced at more and more people around him, his original anger turned into an iron-blue color, and he didn't answer, staring coldly at Xia Mingfeng lying on the ground, if his eyes could kill Xia Mingfeng, he would have died a hundred times.
"Senior Sister Li, what the hell is going on, you are going to kill Senior Brother Xia" The senior brothers asked again, and the senior brothers who came over were in an uproar.
Hearing Senior Brother ask again, Li Qi's face became deeper and deeper, and he made a cold voice that turned people's hearts coldly: "Because he deserves to die"
"Senior Sister Li, Senior Brother Xia just fell from the mountain, and he didn't mean to offend, and he shouldn't have been so cruel to Senior Brother Xia. A senior brother scolded Li Qi with a look of justice.
Li Qi's voice became angry: "I said he deserves to die, he deserves to die, trespassing in the hot spring valley, how should you do it, sisters?" ”
As soon as the words fell, all the senior sisters and sisters present immediately began to respond: "Abolish Xiuwei and expel the sect", "Abolish Xiuwei is too cheap for him, and he should be executed to make an example." In the midst of all the female disciples' discussions, the male disciple with a righteous face just now looked embarrassed.
When the male disciples present saw this scene, some of them said angrily: "There is a law enforcement hall in the sect, it should be tied to the law enforcement hall for disposal, how can a private torture hall be set up, and the sect rules that disciples are not allowed to compete in private, and they will be abolished for cultivation" The female disciple who was still discussing it hotly just now gradually quieted down, and all eyes were focused on Li Qi.
Everyone fell silent, and when several senior brothers were about to carry Xia Mingfeng away to treat his injuries, Li Qi, who saw this scene, suddenly used a spell to shoot towards Xia Mingfeng, but a few fireballs were greeted by a few water columns, and after the fireballs were neutralized, several senior brothers said sharply: "Senior Sister Li, are you planning to be abolished by the sect to expel the sect?"
Another senior brother sighed and said, "Senior Sister Li, otherwise, let's forget about today's matter, and we will act as if we haven't seen anything." Everyone takes a step back. ”
"Take a step back, take a step back, what do you think if I'm going to kill him today?" suddenly floated down a faint sentence in the sky.
The crowd looked up as they spoke, and saw a woman between the ages of twenty and thirty standing in the air, and they all bowed down and saluted. And Li Qi looked at the woman in the sky, his eyes were red, and his eyes instantly moistened: "Master"
Wang Jing floated down from the air, looked at Li Qi, and then hugged Li Qi and said gently: "Silly child, you have been wronged, cry if you want to cry" Listening to what the master said, tears involuntarily slipped down his face, and he cried even louder, just like a wronged child who saw his mother telling about his grievances.
Wang Jing looked at her apprentice's painful appearance, her heart twitched, and she looked coldly at Xia Mingfeng, who was being carried by several people, and the disciple who had just said it, and said coldly: "Who said just now that everyone took a step back?" I saw that the surroundings were extremely silent, and no one answered, and then Wang Jing patted Li Qi in her arms with a smile, and said with a smile: "Disciple, do you want to take revenge? Take your sword." ”
Li Qi raised his head, his crying face showed a determined look, nodded, and walked towards Xia Mingfeng's location step by step with a long sword in his hand.
Several disciples looked at Li Qi who was coming, and hurriedly opened their mouths to Uncle Wang Jing and said, "Uncle is not like this, isn't it okay?" Before he finished speaking, he met a pair of cold eyes and swallowed his saliva.
Li Qi walked in front of Xia Mingfeng, and suddenly swung his sword to cut it from top to bottom, the surrounding brothers and sisters saw that Xia Mingfeng was about to be split in half and did not dare to stop it, most of them couldn't bear to close their eyes, suddenly heard a bang, heard the impact and hurriedly stared in the direction of Xia Fengming, only to see a middle-aged man, a pair of fingers with a long sword between them, and the disciples saluted one after another: "I have seen Uncle Liu Chan"
And Liu Chan ignored everyone, looked at Wang Jing in front of him and said in a bitter tone: "Senior sister, forget it?"
"Forget it, how can I forget my innocence?" Wang Jing said with an atmosphere as she looked at Liu Chan in front of her.
Liu Chan put one hand on Xia Mingfeng's shoulder and shone slightly, and said to Wang Jing: "Mingfeng won't do such a thing, I believe there must be some misunderstanding." ”
After listening to what Liu Chan said, a sneer appeared on his face, and then said in a mocking tone: "Then Senior Brother Liu, do you mean that my apprentice is the one who did this kind of thing?"
"Senior sister, I didn't say that, junior sister, let me wake up Mingfeng first, and listen to what he has to say, right?" Then he flicked the long sword in his hand, put his hands on Xia Mingfeng's two shoulders, and used the demonic energy to drive the demonic blood in Xia Mingfeng's body, and after a while, Xia Mingfeng came to his senses, and a sound of blood was coughed up in his mouth.
Xia Mingfeng looked at the senior brothers around him in a daze, and the master in front of him, and shouted: "Master" and there was a slight grievance in his tone.
Liu Chan touched Xia Mingfeng's head and said softly: "Mingfeng, the master who is okay is here, you can tell your Uncle Wang Jing in detail about the situation." ”
"Cough well, I know the master" Xia Mingfeng endured the pain, shook his head slightly to keep himself awake, and then with Xia Mingfeng's narration, he looked at the big hole in the hot spring shed, and everyone understood in their hearts that it was a misunderstanding. And Wang Jing didn't buy it, she still stared at Liu Chan with an angry face and asked, "I don't care about this, you have to give me an explanation."
"Senior sister, forget it," Liu Chan looked at Wang Jing in front of him and said helplessly.
"Forget it, I can't count it, Senior Brother Liu, I can't beat you, let's take a look at the sect competition in half a year, don't forget that there may be any accidents above the big competition." Hmph, Qi'er, let's go!" After speaking, Wang Jing glared at Xia Mingfeng with an angry face, and left with her disciple. With a cold snort, he left the hot spring valley.
Liu Chan looked at the back walking in front of him, and a helpless sigh came out of his mouth, and Xia Mingfeng could no longer support the injury in his body and fainted again.
In the early morning of the next day, Xia Mingfeng lay on a stone bed, slowly woke up, stared at the stone wall above, turned his head and saw the master meditating beside him, just wanted to get up and salute, the pain swept over, Liu Chan closed his eyes and said: "The injury is not healed, don't move." ”
"Master" sounded with the voice of grievance
