Former Sweetheart
Chapter 18
We finally found a clue about the matter of Yujun Cave, but before everyone could investigate carefully, the senior disciples sent by Qiu Yuebai brought bad news, "Say to the Palace Master, we were ordered to go into the city to arrest Wang Facai, and when we arrived at the Hongxing Inn, it was already There was no one there. After nightfall, the city gate was locked, and the residents and neighbors also said that they had never seen him go out, but the disciples searched the whole city and still did not find his whereabouts."
It was already late at night, and it was impossible for Wang Facai, an ordinary person without cultivation, to go out of the city secretly, and it was impossible to foresee that Wang Caihe would be caught by them. Why did he disappear?
This result was beyond everyone's expectations. Fu Hongye immediately looked at Wang Caihe who was still trembling, "Did he ever say where he was going?"
Wang Caihe, a peasant girl, had never been to such a deep place, and she still felt chills when she came out of the underground cave. She was afraid that the monks would throw herself down again, so she immediately replied: "No, the girl is afraid that he will deceive me, so I only gave the reward to you." Half of the money, I agreed to pay the rest after taking out the water, and he should wait for me in the inn."
The Wang family is too poor to fall behind. Wang Facai loves money like his life since he was a child. He can't wait to squeeze out all the money of his guests. It is impossible for him to give up his family wealth and run away suddenly. Now that his sudden disappearance is murder.
Just when everyone was wondering, You Jiang, who was watching coldly, suddenly asked, "Is the wishing well you are talking about a three-foot spring surrounded by trees and vines?"
What he said was exactly the same as the wishing well, and Qiu Yuebai was shocked when he heard the words, "That's right, seniors have seen it?"
In this regard, You Jiang just pointed to not far away and said, "Isn't it the one over there?"
Sure enough, what he was pointing at was a spring, the water was deep and bottomless, and was trapped under the shade by a circle of half-dead trees and vines. If you look closely, you can see paper floating leisurely from the bottom of the water.Ordinary paper would be waste in water, but this pale paper soaked in spring water did not feel wet at all, and even the handwriting was not blurred, and Wang Facai's name could be clearly seen at a glance.
The people named at the wishing well disappeared quietly except for Qiu Yuebai. When she saw the handwriting, Qiu Yuebai's expression fell, and she only sighed: "It seems that Wang Facai is gone, and being with monsters will eventually harm him. .”
All the cities guarded by the Heavenly Dao League have defensive formations, and the Yujun Cave has two masters, You Jiang and Fu Hongye Zhengxie sitting at the same time. What kind of supernatural power does this monster have, and it can make a wish silently without telling them? well out?This demon even released the name of the victim to provoke everyone, which is really daring.
This behavior, which was tantamount to mocking in person, immediately aroused You Jiang's arrogance. He put down his interest in fighting Fu Hongye for the time being, and stepped forward to observe the paper that suddenly appeared. "This is not a note, but a ghost silk."
Fu Hongye was slightly surprised by this statement, "How could this thing appear in the world?"
Both of them reacted unusually, Qiu Yuebai immediately stepped forward and asked, "What is the Nether Silk?"
"The paper money burned during festivals and festivals in Yangjian carries people's ideas. Some of the forms with stronger ideas are burned and then made into ghost silk by imps and sent to the place of ghosts. Ghost silk is the currency of ghosts. When it comes into contact with Yang Qi, it will slowly Dissipate, it stands to reason that it shouldn't exist in the world."
Ordinary people would never have the chance to see this thing, and it was You Jiang, who had a good relationship with the Demon Cult and Huang Quan, who was able to recognize it at a glance.He was holding the life-threatening paper money, but his expression was still a bit puzzled, "Although the Yujun Cave is very dark, it is not evil. It doesn't look like a ghost."
In the past, the note with the name of the person would disappear in a short time, and the Cangtian Mansion lost the evidence without even having a chance to verify the handwriting. Qiu Yuebai thought it was a means of a monster, but he didn't think that the paper was something from the underworld. Did the thing recorded at home come to life again?
He fell into deep thought because of this, but Fu Hongye carefully observed the naturally formed spring and came to an inference, "Even if the Three Gods of Huangquan do it yourself, you and I will definitely be able to perceive its traces, and things that can hide from our consciousness, as long as I'm afraid it wasn't formed by manpower..."
You Jiang is quite knowledgeable as the leader of the Demon Cult, so he understood what he meant when he heard the words, "You mean ghosts?"
The so-called difference between spirits and monsters is the consciousness formed by the local aura accumulated over tens of thousands of years. It is invisible and colorless, without sorrow or joy. The land is only accompanied by flowers and trees.
Spirits and monsters possess the purest aura in the world. They are neither good nor evil. They jump out of the three realms and are not included in the five elements. Their power is also difficult to divide. The strong ones can swallow gods and gods as nourishment in ancient times, and the weak ones are like the dew in the morning. Step on it and it dissipates.But one thing is certain, spirits and monsters will not take the initiative to appear in front of people. The way of cultivating immortals has prevailed for thousands of years, and there are still not many records about spirits and monsters in various factions. Even those who are already known are only aware of some abilities , the specific origin is unknown after all.
In the Transcendence Tribulation Period, as long as there is a trace of true energy, you can find the abnormality, but there is no movement when the well appears. There is only one possibility in this situation-this well is naturally generated, just like plants sprouting branches and leaves, and the person who controls the well The monster has been perfectly integrated with the environment here, and every move will not cause any spiritual turmoil.Such a thing can only be done by a born spirit.
Spirits hide very deeply in the world, and it is a rare chance to find their traces. You Jiang practiced for a hundred years and only saw one by chance. He didn't think about it when he arrived in Yujun Cave. He only discovered this speculation after Fu Hongye reminded him. Some truth.
If this is the case, there is something wrong with the matter of Yujun Cave. You Jiang glanced at the silent Qiu Yuebai, "Spirits themselves are aggregates of aura, and it is reasonable to say that they will not be infected by any devil energy. What happened in Yujun Cave?" What have you been?"
Unlike demons, spirits are not interested in people, and they don't need to prey on living things for cultivation. Normally, they would not set foot in the city, let alone cause so many troubles, unless people provoked it.
When the matter developed to this point, Qiu Yuebai also knew that there was no way to hide it anymore, so he finally asked with a gloomy expression on his face, "Leader, what I just said about the Wang family matter, do you think it is right or wrong for Wang Facai to take revenge on the Zhang family for the grievances of his ancestors?" ?”
Is it wrong for Wang Facai to retaliate against the Zhang family?The hatred of family destruction, if there is blood hatred, who can restrain it.But if he is right, the cries of the old man of the Li family are still in my ears, and the people in the city who lost their loved ones because of the wishing well are also weeping every day. He knows that there is a passage here but does not report it. The good thing is that the person implicated can be empathetic?
Fu Hongye is no longer young either. He knows that many things in the world cannot be clearly defined in black and white. Facing Qiu Yuebai's gaze, he said calmly: "It's hard to say whether revenge is right or wrong, but he shouldn't harm the innocent. .”
This answer made Qiu Yuebai's face even more gloomy. He breathed a sigh of relief tiredly, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, one is wrong first, and the other is wrong later, so I don't know how to choose the right one."
Spirits and monsters will not take the initiative to provoke people, and Cangtian Mansion may not be the righteous party in this matter, but Tiandaomeng cannot be unscrupulous, and further investigation may lead to a very bad result.Fu Hongye could see that Qiu Yuebai chose to hide it because he didn't want to cause criticism. Perhaps it was the best choice to cooperate with no further questioning and just get rid of the monsters, but he still stood up.
"Palace Master Qiu, if you can't handle this matter, just leave everything to me. Even if you make a wrong choice, all the mistakes will be borne by me. You don't have to blame yourself or worry about it. Just tell me the truth. .”
Qiu Yuebai was troubled by the old things alone for more than a month, and couldn't sleep peacefully every day. She didn't expect to hear such words, and suddenly she seemed to have found a backbone, and she was moved: "Leader Gao Yi..."
Fu Hongye has always been like this, always going to save those who have nothing to do with him, always wading in muddy waters that are destined to be of no benefit, such people don't live long, but when they die, it makes people feel lost.You Jiang didn't want to experience that feeling anymore, so he didn't allow himself to have any affection for Hongye, even if he did, he had to fight immediately to make himself forget.But that was his favorite temperament when he was a teenager. Can liking this kind of thing really be changed just by changing it?
Even You Jiang himself didn't know the answer, he just became irritable when Fu Hongye was acting stupid, and couldn't help saying: "There is nothing wrong with it, if you want the protection of the righteous way, don't kill me, kill me!" People should know that if you kill people, others can kill you; just like the battle between righteousness and demons, demon cultivators can humiliate righteous monks at will if they win, and righteous monks can naturally deal with demon cultivators at will if they win, all of which are chosen by themselves Lu, no one can afford to lose."
The leader of the Devil's Cult had never spoken very well, and Fu Hongye once didn't understand the meaning of his words, and only thought that this person was mocking himself. After defeating the Devil's Cult, he always felt depressed for a long time.Now I can read some deep meaning. It turned out that You Jiang scolded him not because he hated him but because he was worthless for him. If he really stumbled, this old enemy would feel more sorry than anyone else.
These good intentions are hidden too deep, if You Jiang didn't take the initiative to kiss him when he went mad, I'm afraid he wouldn't understand it until now.Jiang Fengzhi, who used to be gentle with everyone, now wraps himself in a sharp blade, as if he would be hurt if he showed a little kindness to others.But he has been hiding in the Xuanmen, never understanding what made Fengzhi look like this.How could he let go of such a catastrophe, even if the demons couldn't infect him, he didn't want to let him go after he understood everything.
The current Fengzhi is not easy to get close to. If you follow him, you will be beaten. If you go against his will, the final result is still a fight. Fu Hongye can only slowly figure it out, and gently persuade him: "You are always so aggressive, good words You have to say it in a fierce tone. If you have good intentions, why be stubborn and deny it, as long as you take a step back, you and I can get along in harmony."
These words naturally drew You Jiang's cold eyes, Moxiu still stubbornly said: "The result of taking a step back is death, I will not retreat."
It was because he woke up too slowly, and he was forced to fall into the evil way at the beginning and didn't appear beside his sweetheart in time, and now he has to swallow the bitter fruit of being late.Fu Hongye turned to deal with the business, ignored You Jiang's resistance, and only said softly: "Okay, I'm used to it, I'll quit."
As expected, Fu Hongye retreated to discuss with Qiu Yuebai about the Yujun Cave, leaving You Jiang a safe distance, such a considerate move made the expression of the leader of the Demon Cult even more complicated.You Jiang silently watched the young man's figure like misty clouds, his fingers holding the Naihe fan loosened and tightened, and finally he didn't ask the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time—brat, what is the relationship between you and me? Accommodate me?
The author has something to say: You Jiang: Brat, I want to scold you!
Fu Hongye: I didn't hear it when it went in the left ear and went out the right ear.
You Jiang: This seat will beat you!
Fu Hongye: Got it, remember to walk away your demons after the fight.

Cun Jie: The leader doesn't want to lose face, you're the only one who talks too much!
It was already late at night, and it was impossible for Wang Facai, an ordinary person without cultivation, to go out of the city secretly, and it was impossible to foresee that Wang Caihe would be caught by them. Why did he disappear?
This result was beyond everyone's expectations. Fu Hongye immediately looked at Wang Caihe who was still trembling, "Did he ever say where he was going?"
Wang Caihe, a peasant girl, had never been to such a deep place, and she still felt chills when she came out of the underground cave.
