Aspiring to the Immortal Path
Vol 5 Chapter 16: Guilty conscience
"What did you say?"
In the main hall of the Shimen School, Shi Jingzhai's big eyes almost protruded, and he stared at Liang Xingbang with intent.
"The news I just got is that someone is selling crystallized sand silkworms in the town." Liang Xingbang could only repeat what he said.
"How could this happen?" Shi Jingzhai's voice almost broke through the sky.
"I don't know what's going on. I don't know where it came from. Suddenly he popped up and said he wanted to sell crystalized sandworms."
"Can you confirm it?" Yu Wanniang next to her also asked hurriedly, crystallization of the silkworm is not trivial, so everyone is not nervous.
Liang Xingbang replied: "Lao Ding has confirmed that it is indeed a crystallized sandworm, but it is a little smaller than the normal one. It should have been used."
"Can you confirm the origin?" Yu Wanniang asked next.
These two people seem to be torturing each other, but fortunately Liang Xingbang himself was in a state of confusion, and he didn't care about these things. He just shook his head and said:
"No. The young man walked away after showing the sandworm, saying that the guy in the shop was too arrogant. He was angry and he didn't want to sell it to us. Because of the quarrel, many people knew about it. "
"Zhuzi mistaken me!" Shi Jingzhai suddenly burst out with an astonishing force. If the store guy is here, it is estimated that this momentum can shock him to death and scare him to death!
Yu Wanniang was even more eclipsed: "This is troublesome. How can this happen? The breeding area of the sand silkworm has long been controlled by us, and now it has been completely dug out, how can there be one stray? Out? Or is it not out of the mine at all, is it purely coincidental?"
Shi Jingzhai glared at Yu Wanniang: "This is not the point at all. The point is that no matter where the sand silkworms came from, as long as the news of the sand silkworms in Yongsui Mountain spreads, trouble will inevitably follow. , If you let them know about it, what would it look like?"
The three elders panicked at the same time when they thought of the result of the news that the Moonwashing Sect had learned.
This is the difference in understanding brought about by different angles.
For Tang Jie, he had to not only discover, but also evidence, and for the three elders, even the rumors of sandworms would make them feel that they were only one step away from the cliff.
It was this difference that made the next reaction of the three people completely anticipated by Tang Jie.
Liang Xingbang has said: "The primary problem now is to block the news, so that more people cannot know it."
"How to block it?" Yu Wanniang asked.
Liang Xingbang and
Shi Jingzhai glanced at each other, and suddenly made a gesture of raising and lowering the knife at the same time.
Yu Wanniang's heart was shocked: "All killed?"
The fat, obese, seems to have always replied to Liang Xingbang, who is a peacemaker at home, with a deep expression: "Otherwise, what else can I do? I can't help but rush to power."
"How do you plan to slaughter the townsfolk? There are so many people who know it, and it's hard to tell, how can you block your mouth?"
Shi Jingzhai's cold excuse: "Why do you need to explain? This is what the horse thief did. As for how to block the law? The silkworm incident has just spread in the day, and the horse thief enters the town to looting at night. This shows the cause of the disaster, in order to avoid another disaster. Even if there are survivors, the silkworm must be kept silent, otherwise it will be irresponsible to the lives of the townspeople. Even our Shimen faction can openly stop the rumors and continue to harm the town."
Yu Wanniang's heart trembled: "Two seniors, think twice! This is hundreds of lives. Are you worthy of our status as a cultivator?"
"Cultivating immortals means that before we become immortals, we are still human first!" Shi Jingzhai replied earnestly.
Human nature is evil!
Liang Xingbang said, "Junior sisters don't have to think that they will dirty their hands. You and I don't need to come forward for this matter, just let the people below do it."
Yu Wanniang said coldly: "You didn't kill it yourself, don't you feel ashamed of your heart?"
Shi Jingzhai snorted, "Women’s benevolence! A man who acts as a fierce and decisive man is a mere mortal life. What can I do? Yu Wanniang, let me tell you, the crisis is now, not to mention hundreds of townspeople, which means thousands. Wan, I also succeeded, and I still have a clear heart, not against my intentions!"
"You!" Yu Wanniang glared at him: "You are not a human!"
"Then you'd better remember that you and us who are not humans are in the same group!" Shi Jingzhai replied politely: "You have a share for concealing the crystallization of sandworms. If there is a leak, both you and I need it. Take responsibility!"
Yuwan didn't want to care about him anymore.
It was Liang Xingbang who persuaded him: "Don't make a noise, don't forget that besides the townsfolk, there is another person who is the curse!"
"Yes, that young man] Nian." Yu Wanniang's eyes lit up: "This person must be eliminated, otherwise if he is allowed to go to Canglong Mansion, there will be endless troubles. We can't kill all the people in Canglong Mansion, right?"
This time, Yu Wanniang was the first to propose murder.
If it hadn't been for that young man who caused the accident, there would be no trouble with the current Shimen faction, but Yu Wanniang hated this person to the bone.
"If this is the case, then there is no objection? Well, in my opinion, let Lu Dong be responsible." Liang Xingbang said.
"Lu Dong?" Yu Wanniang was stunned.
This Lu Dong is a gang leader in the Yongsui Mountain area and also an outer disciple of the Shimen School. He is responsible for dealing with some unseen matters of the Shimen School. Therefore, few people know the relationship with the Shimen School. However, this person has been away for many years, regardless of strength, character, and loyalty are actually not the best choice. It's not a trivial matter to pretend to be a horse thief to slaughter the town or chase the boy in black. Why should this person be held responsible?
After thinking about it again, Yu Wanniang understood what Liang Xingbang meant. Obviously Liang Xingbang intends to kill Lu Dong as well, so that he can be deadly proof.
Shi Jingzhai laughed and said, "It's so good."
Yu Wanniang sighed: "You decide this matter, I don't care, I will go to Tang Jie."
Walk outside as you say.
"What are you looking for Tang Jie for?" Liang Xingbang and Shi Jingzhai became nervous at the same time.
Yu Wanniang said in a huff: "Why? Suspicious, I'm afraid that I won't be able to inform? I naturally sought him to drag him on Shimen Peak. Because of that **** Jin family, Tang Jie can't stay, this time always Can't let him run into town."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"In addition..." Yu Wanniang hesitated and said, "I always feel that something is wrong with Tang Jie. I want to see if it has anything to do with Tang Jie, or what he already knows."
Although she tried with wine that night, it was confirmed that Tang Jie could not have found it, but if such a thing happened, Yu Wanniang couldn't help being uneasy.
The two felt reasonable, so they simply came to Tang Jie's residence with Yu Wanniang, but were told that Tang Jie had gone to the Xiyue School branch to find Zhang Taixu to play chess-waiting for the bill to be collected was very boring. Tang Jie leisurely went around for fun.
The three of them went to the town to find Zhang Taixu. When they saw Zhang Taixu, they were told that Tang Jie had lost two of them and was in a bad mood and went out to relax. Shi Jingzhai asked where he had gone. Zhang Taixu rolled his eyes and answered. Lei country now. When he said this, the look in Shi Jingzhai's eyes was like looking at an idiot. Shi Jingzhai also knew that his IQ had dropped a little under his urgency, so he could only stomped away.
At the same time, in a mountain forest leading to Canglong Mansion, Xi Canhen walked deep and shallow with her package on her back. He was still wearing that black suit, the hat covering his face had been taken off, and Tiger Baoer was still next to him.
After shining through the crystallized silkworm in Jubao Town, Xi Remnant marched all the way to Canglong Mansion.
From Jubao Town to Canglong Mansion, it takes about three days to walk all the way. Xi Shangyue has already reached the Wei Mansion before, but the road to Xi Canhen is destined to be much harder and more dangerous than his sister.
The Shimen faction wouldn't let him reach the Canglong Mansion easily, and chasing after him was almost without suspense. The only question is how long Xi Canhen can sustain under this chase, how many days? Or did he die on the road without it the night before?
No one knows the answer, and even Tang Jie can't assert it.
For the same reason, no one knows how long Xi Canhen needs to hold on under this pressure, because it all depends on Tang Jie. The only thing Xi Canhen can do is to live before Tang Jie finishes what she wants to do!
Before the huge pressure of life and death, the boy's expression was still calm.
For him, what are these things?
In the mine, I took risks again and again, but which time was not walking on the edge of the cliff of death? It was a miracle to be able to live till now.
Without Tang Jie, he would have died under the flying sword of that Shimen disciple in front of the mine gate. Compared to those dark years, Tang Jie at least gave him life and hope, for the young man who had just gotten rid of the extremely difficult situation, this was already a kind of happiness.
The gloomy dense forest is rugged and difficult to navigate. Xi Canhen walked without turning his head. Until dusk, he found a tree and vine to sit down, took out the dry food from the package, and ate it bite by bite, then took out another one. A big piece of fresh meat said to Xiaohu: "Boa, come here!"
Xiaohu looked at him, sat on the ground, and ignored him.
Xi Canhen shouted again: "I'll give you something delicious."
Xiaohu stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, but he still ignored it, and looked down on the piece of fresh meat.
Seeing it like this, Xi Canhen sighed.
Although Tang Jie gave Xiaohu to him and asked Xiaohu to protect Xi Remnant, as a demon tiger, Bao'er had a huge shelf. Don't look at it, but you also know that it depends on people to serve food. For example, Wei Tianchong and Shimeng are all cultivators. It is more reasonable to say that these people are directing it. Xi Canhen is just a mortal, what right does he have to call to himself? Even if it listened to Tang Jie's protection of this kid, it was just a spontaneous act, which didn't mean it was at its mercy.
Want to seduce yourself with fresh meat? Too underestimated.
In the past few days, Xi Canhen tried her best to please Xiaohu, but Bo'er ignored it, making Xi Canhen extremely helpless.
This moment was just another failure. Seeing Xiaohu ignored it, Xi Canhen could only put down the meat.
At this moment, Bao'er suddenly ran a few steps forward, with his wings spread out behind him, and he flew straight to the depths of the forest.
Xi Canhen was stunned: "Boer, don't run! Wait for me!"
Xi Canhen was in a hurry, desperately chasing him out to call Xiaohu back, but how could he be faster than Xiaohu, but in the blink of an eye, Xiaohu had already flown out of sight.
Seeing Xiaohu running away like this, Xi Canhen was also stupid.
He knew that he could not control the little tiger, but he still tried hard to deal with it. The care of the little tiger these days can be described as dedicated to avoiding being spotted by the little tiger, and at the same time preventing the little tiger from being kept in the beast for a long time. In the card, I deliberately chose to walk on the rugged forest path. Even if you don't understand it, you still haven't offended you, right?
Unexpectedly, just like this, Xiaohu abandoned himself before he went on the road.
The thought of this made Xi Canhen's heart hurt immediately.
Serving as a bait to attract the enemy to chase and kill did not make the young man afraid, but Xiaohu's insensitivity really made Xi Canhen sad. For more than three days of staying with him day and night, bathing, eating, talking with him, taking him for a walk, it was just a dream of running water, and without Xiaohu, how could he take the next road? Shimen faction sent a killer casually and could kill itself, right?
He stood lonely in the woods, and when he was desperate, a tiger roar suddenly came from a distance.
Xi Canhen's spirit was shocked, and the little tiger, who had just ran away, flew back with the howling sound.
It walked freely in the forest, still clutching an adult flower deer under its paws.
"Bo...Boa?"
Xi Canhen stared at Xiaohu flying towards him. It turned out that he was not abandoning himself, but was going to catch prey.
Then he saw that the little tiger in flight drew a graceful arc in the sky, a dive over his head, and along with the dive, the flower deer was falling in front of him.
The little tiger took another circle in the air, then stopped not far in front of him, bit on the deer, tearing off a large piece of **** tender meat, and then raised his head to look at the residual scars of the evening, as if I mean, this is called fresh meat!
Is this a response to your own use of fresh meat to seduce it?
Seeing this scene, Xi Canhen couldn't help laughing again.
Tears gushed from his eyes, tears of joy that Xiaohu did not abandon himself.
But these tears confused Xiaohu.
It didn't understand why it caught a deer, and the kid cried.
Is it bullied by me? It's broken, let "Dad" know that he will scold me.
Xiaohu nervously looked at Xi Canhen, who was crying with joy at him, and began to feel that it was necessary to do something to save it.
So it came to Xi Canhen's body, threw the meat that he had just torn off at his feet, and then looked at Xi Canhen, that means you eat it.
Xi Canhen was completely stupid by Xiaohu's behavior, staring at Xiaohu in a daze.
So one person and one tiger looked at each other like this.
Xiaohu looked at him stupidly, with tears still hanging on his face, and was a little annoyed in his heart. Why didn't you even wipe away your tears? Are you still not satisfied?
He turned his head and tore off a piece of meat to leave Xi's mark.
Xi Canhen remained sluggish, Xiaohu was also anxious, turned his head and ran over, but ate the piece of meat that Xi Canhen had previously used to attract it, and then looked back at Xi Canhen.
Seeing it like this, Xi Canhen didn't understand what happened, and shouted excitedly: "Oh, great, Bo'er, you finally accepted me!"
Pounced like flying, hugged Bo'er and kissed wildly.
Bo'er was irritated by his kiss. Seeing that he had managed to coax this boy well, he could only bear it, and let out a helpless growl, thinking about you, kiss and roll away. Xi Canhen groaned when he saw it, and kissed the tiger's head a few more times.
It was day and night, and Xiuhen, who was tired from walking, spent the night in the woodland.
He slept soundly, and in his sleep he protected Xiaohu and took care of Xiaohu, and finally received his approval, and he became very good friends with Xiaohu.
In contrast, Xiaohu was a little restless in his sleep.
The stars at night are sprinkled with warm stars through the shade of the trees.
With the starlight, Bo'er, lying on the ground, looked at the sweet residue of the night, feeling like watching a child fall asleep.
Unlike Tang Jie, with Tang Jie, Tang Jie took care of it, but with this boy, Bao'er suddenly felt like taking care of each other by herself. This feels strange, like the instinct of a powerful being against a weak being.
This instinct can be ignorance, joking, killing, the same can be sympathy, care, or even mutual affection.
Because of Tang Jie's sake, it is obviously impossible for Xiaohu as mentioned before, so he can only develop towards the latter.
A gust of wind blew away the blanket on Xi Canhen's body.
Xiaohu thought for a while, then covered him with the blanket in his mouth, then lay down quietly, closed his eyes and fell asleep, just like a mother guarding the child by his side.
—————————
The night is deep and as dark as ink.
After experiencing the hustle and bustle of the day, the town of Jubao was silent.
It was already late at night, and except for the watchman, almost no half-person figure was seen in the town.
At the entrance of the small town, a group of more than fifty people in black appeared quietly.
The head of the person with a hood and a black scarf stood in front of him with a steel knife in his hand, pointed a few times to the people behind him, made a few gestures, and then pointed to the town, swiped his right hand vigorously, and made a slashing gesture. Hoarse voice: "Extremely kill, no one left!"
"Yes!" A group of people in black rushed towards the town with a low drink.
These people are well-trained, well-organized and well-organized. They were dispatched at the same time, and they each rushed to a house. The long knives in the night reflected the cold light, and a killing was about to begin.
At this moment, a sigh suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.
This sigh was inexplicable, but in the black clothed people's heart it was shaking at the same time, and they stopped and looked around, but saw no one.
The headed man in black turned around and looked at the alley not far away: "Who is sneaky?"
"You are the one who is sneaky, right?" A voice came back leisurely.
The next moment a person walked out of the alley, standing in the shadow, Ying Ying Chuo Chuo couldn't see his face.
The headed man in black narrowed his eyes: "The brothers of Changshanhui are doing business here, and those who are irrelevant, please go quickly."
The other party came strangely, the man in black didn't want to make more mistakes, so he was soft first.
The man in the shadows just sighed: "The choppy of Changshanhui is hundreds of miles away. Where is it not good to rob the house? You have to go to this poor mountain and remote? Or is there someone with ulterior motives and pretending to be Changshanhui? Now, when will the pony thief of Changshanhui have a spiritual master?"
The headed man in black was shocked. Knowing that it was not good, he stepped back and said: "Kill him!"
He was also considered cautious, letting his subordinates take action first.
A group of people in black had surrounded at the same time and attacked the man in the shadow.
Tang Jie just sighed slightly.
He drew his sword and swung it horizontally.
A line of fire gushes from the blade.
Unlike the past, the fire is no longer sloppy and violent, like a sea of fire dancing, but more condensed, as if it had substance.
The line of fire passed over a group of people in black like a knife. The next moment the group of people in black rushed up, their bodies swayed first, and then their bodies fell in half at the same time, and when they fell to the ground, they turned into ash.
Dozens of lives were killed with just one blow!
Only the man in black stood stunned on the spot.
Although his subordinates are all ordinary people ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, they have to kill dozens of lives in a single blow. Unless he uses that powerful spell, it is impossible for him to do so lightly.
With this knife swiping, it showed the gap between each other, and the man in black immediately knew that it was not good.
First, he stared at the ashes on the floor, and stepped back, while loudly saying: "Senior, I know that I am wrong, I am willing to give everything and go back immediately, please raise your hand!"
He said that he had taken out the mustard bag beside him.
Tang Jie sighed and said, "I raised my hands high to you, but who would raise my hands high to the innocent townspeople in this Jubao Town? What are the townspeople? They want to do such an extermination."
The man in black groaned desperately: "Everyone is a cultivator of immortals. The path of immortality is endless, and the path of immortality is not easy. It is more important to help each other. Why should the seniors be so hard for some mortals?"
Tang Jie smiled and said, "Cultivating immortals means that before we become immortals, we are still human first!"
Human nature is good!
