Broken Soul Cliff, snow falling, silent and solemn.

Chang Lin was disheveled, his hair was disheveled, and his whole body was scarred, and he and dozens of prisoners lined up in a row, kneeling neatly in front of the cliff, facing the bright sun, looking like a stone carving.

Perhaps knowing that death was imminent, their hearts were desperate, their minds were blank, there was neither fear nor panic, they just knelt there quietly, motionless, as if this body no longer belonged to them.

In the distance, the morning sun is rising, shining brightly, this is the most beautiful time of the day.

However, this is also the moment of their lives that will come to an end.

Chang Lin's eyes were dull and he looked into the distance, and his heart, which had been frightened for several days in prison, finally calmed down at the moment of death.

Behind the prisoners, stood a row of law enforcement monks in white robes with indifferent faces, their faces stiff and their eyes seemed to have no emotion.

After a while, a group of monks with sad faces, both men and women, hurried over and gathered at the cold Broken Soul Cliff.

Among those prisoners, there were their friends, or relatives, or Taoist companions, and now that these people were about to be executed, they naturally had to come and see them off for the last time.

"Deacon Ruan, it's not too early, hasn't your friend come yet?"

Behind the law enforcement monk, there was a middle-aged man in a white robe, his name was Tang Ju, who was the law enforcement captain who was responsible for executing the prisoner this time, and the person standing next to him was Ruan Ming, a friend of the owner of the Snow Orchard.

Although Ruan Ming is a deacon of the law enforcement team, this time. It's not his responsibility, he knows that Yang Que is going to come to see a friend for the last time, so he asks Tang Opera for a favor. Hopefully, he will be sentenced later.

Originally, before the prisoner died, no one was allowed to come close to speak, so he could only watch from a short distance and sigh silently, just like the crowd over there.

But since he is Ruan Ming's friend, Tang Opera naturally wants to give some face, and at this time he sees that the time for execution is approaching. I had to urge Ruan Ming.

"Captain Tang, wait, he should be coming soon. Ruan Ming was a little anxious in his heart. I kept looking at the mountain road behind.

Fortunately, he didn't wait long, Mu Yiqing hurried over with Yang Que and Zhang Jian.

"Captain Tang, I'm sorry for you. This is Senior Brother Yang. Today he was going to meet a friend. Mu Yiqing, as the owner of the snow orchard, naturally knew Tang Opera, and as soon as he came over, he introduced him.

"Junior Yang Que, thank you Tang senior. Yang Que hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, his attitude was very respectful.

Tang Ju glanced at him indifferently and said, "Since you are a friend of Deacon Ruan and the owner of the wood garden, then you don't have to be polite." Hurry up, long story short. ”

Yang Que nodded. took Zhang Jian and walked towards Chang Lin, who was kneeling on the edge of the cliff.

Those monks who were not far away suddenly became a little indignant when they saw this scene, but the people who looked at Yang Que and the law enforcement team seemed to be very familiar, and they could only sigh in their hearts.

"Chang Lin, Senior Brother Yang and I have come to see you. Zhang Jian hurriedly ran to Chang Lin's side, patted his shoulder, and choked up a little.

Chang Lin turned his head, glanced at the two of them blankly, didn't seem to know each other, and said mechanically: "Oh." Then he turned his head away from them.

"Chang Lin, what's wrong with you? I'm Zhang Jian, I'm your friend from childhood to adulthood!"

Zhang Jian looked at his sluggish expression, his heart ached, and he held his hand and said urgently.

Chang Lin looked straight at the sun in the sky, and he didn't feel dazzling, he was silent for a while, and said, "Friend, what is a friend? Friend, can he help me?"

When Zhang Jian heard this, his face was full of guilt, and he bowed his head and said: "Chang Lin, I'm sorry for you, I'm useless, I can't help you, and I also know that you were wronged this time." ”

The corners of Chang Lin's mouth twitched, revealing a touch of sarcasm, shook his head, and said, "No, I'm not wronged." Something happened where I looked, and even if they killed me, they should have done it. ”

"Chang Lin, you ......" Zhang Jian looked at him like a puppet and sighed: "I also know that things are irreversible, today Senior Brother Yang and I are here to see you for the last time and talk to you, can you not do this?"

Yang Que frowned slightly, reached out and opened his collar, and the hideous scars on his body were immediately exposed, some of them had scabbed, some of them were blurred, and there was still blood, which looked shocking.

Zhang Jian's whole body trembled, his eyes were full of anger, and he said in a trembling voice: "They ...... How can they do this? Why should they beat you up even if it's not your business, even if you're sentenced to death?"

Chang Lin's eyes were glazed, still looking into the distance, and he didn't answer.

Yang Que sighed slightly, and said, "There are so many fruit trees dead in that area, and he happened to be guarding it that night, and the people of the law enforcement team must want to get some information from him." If they can't get it, they are naturally dissatisfied in their hearts, and their actions are even more cruel, although they may also know about this matter, and it has nothing to do with Senior Brother Chang. ”

"They insisted that it had something to do with me. After listening to Yang Que's words, Chang Lin suddenly spoke, but the expression on his face was unusually calm, without any anger or grievances.

"Also, that incident is too weird, since they can't find out, they naturally have to find a scapegoat. Yang Que smiled bitterly.

Zhang Jian's face was full of anger, and he was about to curse a few words in a low voice, but he heard a row of law enforcement monks behind him suddenly raise the spirit sword in his hand, and Tang Ju's indifferent voice sounded: "The time has come, prepare for execution!"

"Senior Brother Yang, come back quickly. Mu Yiqing hurriedly shouted at Yang Que not far away.

"Chang Lin......" Zhang Jian heard that he was about to be executed, holding Chang Lin's hand tightly, his face full of pain: "I'm useless, I can't save you, I hope you don't blame me......"

"Okay, you guys go quickly, death is death, I have long been desperate. In this brief moment, Chang Lin seemed to regain consciousness, glanced at the two of them, and smiled faintly.

"Senior Brother Yang, I know that you and we are not the same kind of people, your road is farther than ours, thank you for coming these days, you can not dislike the identity of me and Zhang Jian, and talk and chat with us, in fact, Zhang Jian and I are very grateful to you in our hearts. I want to have that honor forever and be your friend, but alas, I'm dying. But I hope you can help me take care of Zhang Jian, with your strength and background, you will definitely be able to keep him from being bullied......"

Chang Lin looked at Yang Que, finished speaking with a smile, and then kowtowed heavily to him.

"Chang Lin!" Zhang Jian saw that he was still thinking about himself when he was dying, and suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, hugged him, and cried, "Chang Lin, I'm so useless, I've worked hard to cultivate for decades, but I want to watch you die, if it weren't for you, my mother and I would have been dead a long time ago, I'm sorry for you......"

Chang Lin lowered his head, tears overflowing in his eyes.

Yang Que sighed slightly, and wanted to reach out to pull Zhang Jian, but he couldn't bear it, but at this moment, he heard Tang Ju snort coldly: "Okay! The time has come, leave quickly, delay the time of execution, and kill you together!"

"Kill! If you have the ability, you will kill me together! You will only bully the weak and wronged the good people!" Zhang Jian was emotional, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and turned to Tang Opera and yelled.

"Presumptuous!" When Tang Ju heard this, his face suddenly turned extremely gloomy, and he glanced at him and Yang Que with disdain, and said coldly: "I really don't know what to do! If it weren't for Deacon Ruan's face, I would have the right to kill you just because of your trespassing on the execution ground!"

"Senior Brother Yang, hurry up and bring your friends out, don't be impulsive!" Ruan Ming and Mu Yiqing hurriedly shouted when they saw that there was an argument between the two sides.

Yang Que listened to Tang Opera's arrogant words, and his heart was also furious, but he clearly knew that now was not the time to be brave for a while, this was someone else's territory, and if he went on impulsively, it would make Ruan Ming very embarrassed.

"Senior Brother Zhang, let's go. Yang Que sighed.

Chang Lin also pushed Zhang Jian and said: "Let's go, get out of here with Senior Brother Yang, don't make Captain Tang angry, be careful of being hated by him, and you will be in trouble in the future." ”

"Changlin, I won't leave! My mother said that she wants me to repay you well, how can I watch you die now?" Zhang Jian was thinking about his mother's words before he died, and the suppressed feelings in his heart were like a flash flood in an instant, uncontrollable, he was extremely emotional, and he couldn't control it at all.

"Hmph, the time has come, since you don't want to leave, then I will fulfill you!" Tang Ju glanced at him coldly, raised his hand, and directly issued an order: "Start preparing for the execution!"

"Buzz"

The spirit swords in the hands of the row of law enforcement monks suddenly raised, and they roared together, and then the light trembled, and the chill was awesome.

"Captain Tang, no!" Ruan Ming saw that he was about to give the order to make a move, and hurriedly stopped him.

Tang Opera glanced at him and said coldly: "Deacon Ruan, I'm sorry, it's your friend who doesn't know what to do today, it's not that my Tang Opera doesn't give you face." As a member of the law enforcement team, you naturally know our rules, and when the time for the execution comes, if I delay and be seen by those elders, I will be the one who will die. ”

When Ruan Ming heard this, his face was full of anxiety.

"Prepare for execution!" Tang Ju glanced at Yang Que and the others indifferently, and directly issued an order.

Dozens of cold and piercing killing intent suddenly burst out from the spirit swords in the hands of those law enforcement monks, and gradually pressed towards Yang Que and the others.

"Senior Brother Yang, you go quickly! Leave Zhang Jian alone!" Chang Lin saw Zhang Jian hugging his leg tightly and refusing to leave, he was anxious at the same time, he was also very moved, seeing that the people behind him were about to make a move, he hurriedly urged Yang Que.

Zhang Jian accompanied him to die because he had saved the lives of Zhang Jian's family, and the relationship between Yang Que and him was far from reaching the point of dying for him, so Chang Lin was taken aback when he saw Yang Que also standing motionless behind him.

"Senior Brother Yang, get out of there quickly!"

Ruan Ming and Mu Yiqing, not far away, shouted anxiously.

"I'm afraid it's too late to leave now. The corners of Tang Ju's mouth showed a hint of mockery, and he looked playfully at the young man bathed in the sun in front of the cliff.

"With your kid's cultivation, you are also worthy of letting me make an exception for you in front of this many people?" Thinking that in order to save face for Ruan Ming, he had to make an exception for Yang Que to bring someone over to visit his friends, and a sense of annoyance suddenly rose in Tang Ju's heart.
