Chapter 195 Midnight Ambush As soon as the voice sounded, the disciples in the audience, who had been unable to contain themselves, rushed forward, but were met with a scolding from Dou Ruchang."That's enough! No need to bother you." "I will do it myself." After saying this, he took out a dagger from his bosom, turned his head and stared at the head of the Secret Painting Sect and the second in command, with a complicated expression, and explained again: "My two brothers, I really have not let you down." “Please believe me” "I am willing to reveal my heart as a witness, and I have no regrets." The words that the head of the Secret Painting Sect and the second in command wanted to say were extremely heavy, and they were swallowed back into their throats when they reached their lips. Dou Ruchang saw their dilemma and said nothing more. His face was filled with sorrow and he straightened his back. He glanced at the faces that wished him eternal damnation and suddenly looked up at the sky miserably. When a person is about to die, he is full of regrets. "Cut open! What are you waiting for?" "Want to show everyone your mystique?"
"No one will give you a way out!" The urging of the crowd became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Dou Ruchang held the sharp knife against his chest. Even before his death, he was still muttering: "I am worthy of Mihua. I did not pass Xiqing to them in its entirety." When he said this, even he himself began to waver. He knew better than anyone that these words were nothing more than an attempt to evade the main issue and cover up all the serious consequences caused by others who used Xiqing to escape after the oath of brotherhood. "Pfft!" As Dou Ruchang exerted force with his wrist, the tip of the knife pressed against his Zhongshan suit and penetrated directly, tearing his skin and flesh tissue apart. Every second he felt the pain make his face turn pale and his body tremble, but even this was far from enough. He suddenly thrust the knife into his heart and his whole body began to convulse. "Senior Brother, I don't have any." The vitality of his limbs and bones was rapidly decreasing, and his strength was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye. Dou Ruchang knelt stiffly on the ground, enduring the pain of having his heart cut out. The head of the Secret Painting Sect and the second in command were moved and felt a little bit reluctant, but they were unwilling to stop it and let him live or die. With a dull "bang" sound, he knelt on the wooden platform, lowered his head, vomited blood, and gasped tiredly. Everyone who witnessed this was also stunned. They never expected that this traitor would actually do such a thing. “Pfft.” When the tip of the knife pierced his heart, Dou Ruchang vomited blood, and his clothes on his chest were stained red. He gradually collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion. The noise in his ears became farther and farther away, and his drowsy consciousness fell into nothingness. died. The third in command of the Secret Painting brand knelt on the ground and dug out his heart in front of many of his colleagues and died. Even until the last moment, he still denied that he had betrayed the Secret Painting. However, no matter how much explanation is given, it is futile, as the onlookers have their own answers in their hearts. The head of the Wang family felt extremely happy. This exhilarating feeling emanated from every inch of his flesh and blood.
Hu Tu of the Shuzi Sect treated it calmly. In his opinion, even if the other party was a famous figure, as long as he crossed the "bottom line" agreed upon by the underworld and colluded with Quan Xing, it was natural for him to be punished. Zhuge Village. In a house in the village, the village chief, dressed in black, with white hair and looking very old, had his eyes closed and a gloomy face, appearing extremely hesitant. The young man kneeling in front of him, wearing a white shirt and linen pants, his face, which should have been handsome, was now covered with tears, begging bitterly: "Village chief, please give Xiaodie a chance to live." "It's my fault. I taught her the magic without permission, which led to this series of disasters. If you want to punish me, please punish me severely." "." Listening to the crying, the village chief's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, and he said to himself: "If her last name is Zhuge, everything can be negotiated. According to the agreement reached by the various factions, as long as her cultivation is abolished and she is confined to her house for life, the matter can be settled peacefully." "However, her last name is not Zhuge. Give her a chance to live? How? Tell me." "It's a turbulent time outside right now. Nearly half of the sworn brothers have died one after another. If she wanders around, she will die if she is caught in a few days." "If she stays in the village, she will be in trouble. Those famous and upright people will come to investigate sooner or later. How are you going to protect her?" Zhuge Yunhui cried with tears streaming down his face. According to what the village chief said, Tian Xiaodie would die anyway, it was just a matter of sooner or later. Before he could make a decision, the man with a crew cut and thick eyebrows standing next to the village chief became even more angry when he saw his fifth brother being so cowardly. He angrily scolded and accused him: "If you weren't soft-hearted and bewitched by Tian Xiaodie's whispers, would you have caused so many troubles?" "You have violated the family rules by privately teaching Wu Hou Qi Men. If I give you a light punishment, wouldn't it make the world laugh at my Zhuge family?" When Zhuge Yunhui heard his elder brother's scolding, he did not dare to respond, but continued to plead with the village chief. "It's better for her to escape outside. Village chief, please let her go." Staying in the village would mean certain death. Zhuge Yunhui had learned in the past two days that many sworn brothers trapped in the sect had died, and it was unknown when his wife would be the next. If he runs away, the world is vast and he has the strange door to protect him, so he might have a chance of survival. "Ugh" The village chief sighed helplessly. He was old and didn't want the whole village to be in turmoil because of a woman from another family. So he agreed to Zhuge Yunhui's request and warned him again and again: "After driving her out, she is no longer a member of my Zhuge Village." "As for you, considering that your baby is a newborn and can't even walk or talk, you will be spared from death. However, you must draw a clear line between yourself and that witch and stay in the village to be punished." "Take care of yourself." The village chief propped himself up with his cane, unwilling to look at this evil creature any longer, and slowly stood up and walked out the door. "Thank you, village chief!" "Thank you, village chief!" Zhuge Yunhui said with tears of gratitude that, apart from Tian Xiaodie, the child born to the two was still in swaddling clothes. If it weren't for the village chief's mercy, the child would have lost both his parents. Zhuge Yunlan was uneasy about the village chief's decision, so he quickly stepped forward and tried to persuade him: "Village chief, I understand that you want to spare my fifth brother's life, but if that evil woman leaves at will, it will cause great disaster in the future. I'm afraid the backbone of our Zhuge family will be broken by the world." "Please listen to me and execute her to uphold the family law." "Forget it, let her be. If she can survive outside, it's her own ability."
After the two left, Zhuge Yunhui rushed home, discussed countermeasures with his wife, and hurriedly packed his luggage and prepared money for her. At this time, the baby on the bed seemed to feel the mother's departure and cried non-stop. Seeing this, the couple hugged each other tightly and shed tears. They both knew that after this separation, they might never have the chance to meet again in this life. That night. A carrier pigeon flew into the village. The village chief looked at the latest news on the note. Dou Ruchang of the Secret Painting Sect secretly passed Xi Qing to other people. Seeing this, the old man became uneasy and immediately changed his mind. He called for Zhuge Yunlan. "Village Chief, what's up?" Zhuge Yunlan was confused, his tone revealing a hint of resentment. He tried his best to persuade the old man for the whole morning, but to no avail. "Well, look." The village chief handed over the letter, Zhuge Yunlan glanced at it and immediately understood what the old man meant. "Humph! I knew these scumbags weren't that honest." "Village chief, if you let that evil woman go, what will happen if she passes on the Zhuge family's unique skills to outsiders?" The village chief was worried about this. With his experience, he knew that there were many torture methods in the underworld. Even if Tian Xiaodie didn't say anything, as long as it fell into the hands of outsiders, she would have no control over it. "I have thought about it carefully, Yunlan. You are the most thoughtful. I will leave this matter to you. You must not let the witch leave alive." "Okay, don't worry." Zhuge Yunlan patted his chest and promised, "I'll go right away." Late at night, Tian Xiaodie secretly left Zhuge Village and fled all the way. The dark night was full of murderous intent, but she was unaware of it and continued running. "Who betrayed us?" "The sworn brotherhood was carried out secretly in the Twenty-Four Solar Terms Valley. Only the thirty-six of us knew about it." “Who is the traitor?” "Boom!!!" Suddenly, a terrifying sea of fire swept in from the front, and a sturdy figure walked out of it. "You are one thing in front of others and another behind their backs?!" When Tian Xiaodie saw who was coming, she felt despair for a moment. There was no doubt that her husband's elder brother Zhuge Yunlan was the strongest person in the village who studied Wu Hou Qimen except for the older generation. The billowing flames instantly formed a cage, trapping Tian Xiaodie so that she could not escape. "No, that's not right. The village chief wouldn't lie to me like this. Are you the one who wants to kill me without my permission?" Hearing his brother and sister-in-law's exclamation, Zhuge Yunlan didn't take it seriously and said indifferently: "You have sworn brotherhood with the demon leader Quan Xing and fallen into the devil's way. Can't I kill you?" "Brother, the one I swore brotherhood with is Sanren Wu Gensheng, not the head of Quanxing Sect. He has already left Quanxing Sect."
"I don't even bother to reason with you. You don't deserve to listen." Zhuge Yunlan's murderous intent suddenly rose up, and he said in a cold voice: "Since you like to excuse that devil so much, then the one I killed today is not Zhuge family's daughter-in-law Tian Xiaodie, but a slave girl who is sworn brothers with the devil Quan Xing." "Brother!! The child is still young, are you really going to push me into a desperate situation?" Tian Xiaodie was completely panicked. With her level of cultivation, it was impossible for her to escape from the man in front of her. "Shut up, you seductress who deceived my fifth brother, I will never coexist with you!" Zhuge Yunlan formed a seal with one hand and cast a spell. The ground instantly collapsed and sank, turning into a grave and pressing towards Tian Xiaodie. "Boom!!!" At the same time, the majestic red flames turned into a giant dragon and roared down. "Kun character, earth and river cart." Countless rocks and soil rose up and turned into barriers in an attempt to resist, but they were destroyed with great force. "Swish--" Tian Xiaodie was panting and rolling around in a panic. She was almost exhausted after just one move. A war broke out, and Zhuge Yunlan did not hold back at all, and it was over in a moment. In the spider-web-like pit, there lay a body that was beyond recognition, its flesh and blood were charred, and its bones were even burnt to carbonization. Thirty-six thieves, Tian Xiaodie - dead.
