Chapter 49 Killing Heart
What is innocence? Can you eat? Can innocent people emerge from troubled times? ——Taken from the Supreme Holy Demon of Heaven and Earth, Chapter [-] of "My Diary" by Demon God Zhang
The carriage creaked and creaked on the road, and the wheels of the world rolled forward.
Chu Ran, who was sitting in the car, was not at all happy. A dozen practitioners from other sects were "guarding" her as she headed to the Zhengyi Sect, and until she was leaving, she did not even see her senior brother Xiao Long.
After leaving the county town, the carriage did not dare to walk on the official this time of war and chaos, no one knows whether the demonic cultivators will in Qingjun now, where the demon cultivator is strong, for safety's sake, we still have to take a small path.
The so-called paths are mountain roads and forest paths.
This kind of place is not only inaccessible, but also not easy to get around.
Soon the horses had to be turned loose and the carriages began to enter the winding mountain to their schedule, they will reach Zhengyi Sect in another three to five days.
"Keep up, keep up!"
"Keep an eye on her, don't let her fall behind!"
"Miss Chu, don't make it difficult for us. We are also following orders!"
Among the practitioners, Chu Ran was the only one who was female, and she was under guard, so it was really inconvenient.
Chu Ran didn't know what he was thinking. He was always stalling for time along the way, as if he didn't want to return to Zhengyi Sect at all.
At this time, too, it was hard to get out of the winding mountain road quickly.
Chu Ran sat down on the ground and said, "I'm tired, I want to rest."
The others frowned, but did not lose their temper.
The leading man is Xu Tao, a warrior from Qingmen.
In his 40s, he is kind and Chu Ran's look, Xu Tao only frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Waving his hands, he said: "Then rest, rest. Let's make a fire and cook!"
Everyone nodded, brought wood, set up an iron pot to cook rice porridge, and ate big cakes.
When you are out and about in the wilderness, it would be nice to have something hot to eat.
Xu Tao walked to Chu Ran and handed her a piece of cake.
"Miss Chu, eat something. There's still a long way to go!"
Seeing Xu Tao's honest smile, Chu Ran couldn't refuse and reached out to take the cake.
Suddenly, Chu Ran said loudly: "I am not a demon cultivator spy, and I have not done anything to disgrace the sect!"
Chu Ran said firmly, and the others were slightly stunned. Why did she suddenly say this? Xu Tao replied calmly: "Yes, I believe it."
Chu Ran looked up at Xu Tao and said, "Brother Xu, I..."
Xu Tao raised his hand to interrupt her and said: "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether we believe it or not. The key now is whether Elder Cui of your Zhengyi Sect believes it or not, and Mr. Yunshan believes it or not. If they don't believe it, we can only Send me back. Listen to my brother's advice, don't do stupid things, just do whatever I ask you to do. Anything that goes out of line may be regarded as rebellion now."
Chu Ran had nothing to say, he lowered his head and ate the pie silently.
Xu Tao turned back to the other practitioners and slapped a young practitioner on the back of the head.
"I asked you to stop being pushy and stop talking nonsense on the road. She is fine now. She knows why she was driven home. It was you people who like to chew behind her back who caused the trouble. If something happens, I will hang you all up. beat!"
Everyone was as silent as a cicada, not daring to talk few who loved gossiping now also lowered their heads.
Yes, Chu Ran knew the situation from their mouths, otherwise she would still have been kept in the then did Chu Ran realize how tragically he had been killed. Could it be that the seemingly stupid leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect was really an unparalleled strategist, and could he have been able to figure it out to such an extent? Chu Ran was a little confused, but she decided to listen to Xu Tao and not do anything stupid.
Hey, let’s go back to the sect first.
After another three days, they finally arrived safely at the foot of Zhengyi Zong Mountain Gate.
Arriving here, Xu Tao finally breathed a sigh of journey was safe, and Chu Ran didn't have any temper tantrums in the last few days. He was very satisfied.
From his point of view, Chu Ran really didn't look like a after going back, we can have a chat with the sect leader and the others. It seems that he really made the wrong decision.
Just as he was thinking about it, the mountain gate opened wide, and someone from the Zhengyi sect came out to greet him. The leader was an old man with a serious face.
Although everyone is not familiar with this old man, they have all heard of his name.
There is an elder in Zhengyi Sect who stays behind to guard the sect, and is known as Elder Leng who kills the king.
When Xu Tao saw Elder Leng in purple clothes coming to pick him up, he immediately bowed and said, "Qingmen Xu Tao, I have met Elder Leng."
Elder Leng didn't even bother to look at Xu Tao. He only looked at Chu Ran and snorted softly: "Xiao Nizi is back? Huh, I already knew that keeping you would be a disaster. I didn't expect that you almost sold out the entire sect. ”
When Chu Ran heard this, he immediately wanted to refute, but he still didn't say anything.
Elder Leng has always been mean in the sect and has never been gregarious. No wonder he was left in the sect and did not go to the county.
Seeing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Xu Tao hurriedly blocked Elder Leng's sight and said: "Elder Leng. Elder Cui has ordered us to escort Miss Chu back to the back mountain of Zhengyi Sect for retreat. Please also ask Elder Leng to send someone to show the way. .”
Elder Leng said loudly: "Back Mountain? Back to what Back Mountain? Back Mountain is a pure place, and she cannot be allowed to defile it again. Don't think that I don't know how this girl got into the mountain gate. She has an extremely yin body, raised by Lord White Lotus Sword." Furnace tripod. I don’t care what Old Cui thinks. With me, she has only one way, and that is to die as a result of the sect’s punishment.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Tao quickly said: "That's not appropriate. Elder Leng, please calm down. This matter was decided jointly by Mr. Yunshan and Elder Cui. Miss Chu, she...she..."
Xu Tao was a little anxious. Elder Leng said loudly: "What's wrong with her? Please tell me clearly. Let me hear what she wants."
Seeing Elder Leng's murderous intent, Xu Tao couldn't care less and could only say loudly: "She was left for Young Master Xiao Long."
"what?"
Chu Ran exclaimed, his face full of disbelief, and something seemed to break in his heart.
Xu Tao quickly explained: "Miss Chu, it's not as dirty as you think. In fact, it was a well-arranged matter. You and Xiao Long... Oh, Elder Leng, stop it!"
Elder Leng doesn't care about Xiao Long. If he doesn't know Xiao Long, he's not his disciple.
Pointing his finger at Chu Ran, Elder Leng took action on the spot. With his golden clothes, Xu Tao and others were directly shaken several feet away.
"No, stop him!"
Xu Tao struggled forward, and others stepped forward to stop him, but how could their cultivation be compared with Elder Leng? After a while, the ground was covered with them.
Chu Ran backed away continuously, seemingly still in shock.
Suddenly, Xu Tao stepped in front of her and took Elder Leng's palm for her.
The palm force penetrated Xu Tao's body and still knocked Chu Ran away.
With blood on the corner of his mouth, Xu Tao said to Chu Ran: "Escape!"
After speaking, Xu Tao hugged Elder Leng tightly and said, "Elder Leng, you are rebelling and disrupting the situation. I will not let you kill her."
Elder Leng said slowly: "Really? Then you die first!"
