Xu Deng didn't want to pay much attention to Liu Wenzhi, but Liu Wenzhi looked anxious, I am afraid that there is really something important, Xu Deng showed a dilemma.
Yin Xun was silent for a moment, sighed, and his voice was soft and hoarse: "You go and deal with your business first, my business... I'll talk about it when you get back, huh? ”
Seeing Yin Xun say this, Xu Deng finally stopped hesitating and hurriedly went out with Liu Wenzhi.
Liu Wenzhi explained helplessly as he walked: "I know you have something inconvenient now, but we are really in trouble, a group of stinky Taoist priests just came, saying that we harbored the ghost they were hunting, and asked us to hand over the ghost, they came with great momentum and preparedness, and they have injured several of our brothers, and now they are coming to the mountain!" ”
Xu Deng frowned and said, "Are you sure that the ghost didn't hurt anyone, is it innocent?" ”
Liu Wenzhi scratched his head: "That's what he told us, it doesn't look like a lie, but I'm not completely sure..."
Xu Deng: "In this way, you take me to see him first." ”
Liu Wenzhi said: "It's at the door, we brought him over." ”
As soon as Xu Deng went out, he saw Tang Shu and a middle-aged male ghost standing at the door, the middle-aged ghost looked honest and honest, standing there a little uneasy, Tang Shu said, "It's him." ”
Xu Deng directly summoned the evil ghost.
The evil ghost is not only good at demagoguery and deceiving people with dreams, it also has its own usefulness and ability, otherwise in the book, it is not qualified to be his left arm and right arm.
Xu Deng lightly ordered: "I want him to tell the truth." ”
The evil ghost immediately took the order, and its red eyes swept away the middle-aged male ghost, and soon the middle-aged ghost's eyes became dull and dull.
The evil ghost flattered Xu Deng and said, "He will tell you whatever you ask now, and it is absolutely true!" ”
Xu Deng asked directly: "Did you kill someone?" ”
The middle-aged male ghost had a dull look in his eyes, and said indifferently: "I didn't kill anyone." ”
Xu Deng said: "Then why do they say that you killed someone?" ”
Middle-aged male ghost: "I had some debt disputes with the deceased before his death, and if he didn't pay back the money he owed me, I sued the court to seize his property, who knew that it didn't take long for me to die unexpectedly, thinking that the money would die before it came back, I didn't blink an eye!" After turning into a ghost, he harassed him for a while, who knows what I haven't done yet, and he died in an accident when the sky has eyes! I was watching from the sidelines, and after a mockery, I left, and then someone was chasing me, saying that I had killed him, and I didn't know what was going on. ”
Tang Shu has been wronged, and he can empathize with this kind of thing the most, and when he heard this, he suddenly became excited: "Those guys who don't distinguish between right and wrong!" ”
Xu Deng was calmer, and he said to Liu Wenzhi: "Now that the matter has been investigated, you go and tell those people under the mountain, we will not hand over people, and Dusk Mountain can't let them act recklessly." ”
Liu Wenzhi rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll go tell them!" ”
Xu Deng was worried that Liu Wenzhi alone was not an opponent, and ordered the evil ghost: "You go with him." ”
..................
The park is closed for the night.
At the foot of the mountain, which is usually deserted at this time, there are many people gathered at this moment, about dozens of people.
Some of them wore Taoist robes, some wore monk's robes, but more often they wore casual clothes, both suits and casual clothes, and men, women, and children gathered together, as if they had come to attend some kind of party.
Yuan Simiao's beard and hair are all white, and her bearing is extraordinary, standing in it is the most conspicuous, but at this moment her face is full of helplessness.
A middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Elder, although we are from other provinces, we have long heard of your reputation, and they all say that you are fair, we respect you as a respected senior, give you a little face, we have been waiting here for a long time, since they are unwilling to hand over the evil ghosts, why do you want to stop us from going up the mountain?" ”
The middle-aged man who spoke was named Yu Chun, a monk from Chiyangmen in the next province, who had traveled thousands of miles with his two apprentices, only to learn that the ghost had hidden on the twilight mountain.
And what surprised him even more was that there were already a lot of ghosts gathered on this twilight mountain, and the Xuanmen of City C actually sat idly by, and even allowed these ghosts to gather to shield the evil ghosts.
All this shocked Yu Chun and couldn't understand it, no matter what, he had to arrest that terrible ghost today!
While they were arguing, two more ghosts came down from the mountain.
One of them looked like a high school student, his appearance was ordinary, although he was a little immature, but the evil ghost around him was full of blood, and he was obviously a tricky character, making the people of the Xuanmen present feel like a great enemy!
Liu Wenzhi saw so many people in the Xuanmen for the first time, and his feet suddenly became weak, the monks here are all very powerful, fortunately Xu Deng let the evil ghost accompany him down, otherwise he alone would definitely not be an opponent! Maybe you're going to have stage fright.
He took a deep breath, tried not to show his timidity, and said, "We have found out that the ghost you said did not kill anyone, it was just a misunderstanding, so we will not hand it over." ”
Yu Chun frowned: "Did you say that if you didn't kill, you didn't kill?" Our evidence is conclusive, the soul of the deceased said that he was killed by a ghost! ”
Liu Wenzhi stiffened his neck and said: "I said that if I didn't kill, I didn't kill, this is a frame-up." ”
Yu Chun said again: "Then do you have any evidence?" ”
Liu Wenzhi choked: "I..."
Yu Chun saw that he had no evidence, and sneered: "You don't have any evidence, but you want us to listen to your words?" Since you say he didn't kill anyone, why don't you hand him over to us, and we'll find out the truth. ”
But I can't trust you!
Liu Wenzhi was dumbfounded, and said helplessly: "In short, we won't hand over people, you can leave quickly." ”
As he spoke, he turned away with the evil ghost, his steps were a little fast, and he was afraid that he would be cowardly if he stayed any longer! These people are really horrible!
Everyone saw that the two ghosts left after dropping a few words, their faces were different, and many people showed dissatisfaction.
These ghosts are becoming more and more arrogant now, when they are people, just a few words to dismiss? How can you convince the public without evidence?
Yu Chun said to Yuan Simiao: "Elder, you also saw it, right?" They are not reasonable at all, they have no evidence, and they refuse to hand over people, so arrogant, do you still want to stop us? ”
Yuan Simiao smiled bitterly: "I know your concerns, but this matter, it's better to investigate it clearly, maybe it's really an unjust case..."
During this time, Dusk Mountain has become more and more powerful, and many people have accumulated dissatisfaction, they have long been going up the mountain to get rid of ghosts, but they have been repeatedly stopped by Yuan Simiao, and suddenly someone interrupted: "How long have we been investigating, has the investigation come up with anything?" The patriarch is not procrastinating. ”
The other person smiled and said: "Don't say that, the patriarch is highly respected in Xuanmen, and he takes it as his responsibility to help the world and save people, how can he shirk it for a group of evil ghosts?" ”
These words seemed to be helping Yuan Simiao speak, but in fact, they were squeezing Yuan Simiao.
Another humanitarian: "We have no choice, there are more and more ghosts on this twilight mountain, many of them have murder cases, if we let it go, as long as those powerful ghosts hide in the twilight mountain in the future, and then don't admit that they killed someone, we will have no way to take them?" ”
"I think the ghost on this twilight mountain is not going to occupy the mountain as the king."
"If we return in vain like this today, let them send them a sentence, do we still have a little prestige in Xuanmen? In the future, the evil ghosts will be even more unscrupulous! ”
Yuan Simiao only felt helpless when he heard this, he understood the anger of these people, although he believed in Xu Deng and Yin Xun, but there was no evidence, it was really difficult to convince the public with just one sentence, no wonder these people were dissatisfied, but he couldn't let them go up the mountain, if he really angered Xu Deng, he would be trapped in the world!
Yuan Simiao really had no way, he thought for a long time, and finally stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yin is on the mountain at the moment, can't you even believe him?" ”
As soon as Mr. Yin's three words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent.
The expressions of everyone present changed.
Jiang Cheng is also here today, he has long known that Yin Xun is on the mountain, and he has also seen Xu Deng, so he is on Yuan Simiao's side, seeing this, he said: "Master is indeed on the mountain, I have seen him, and I believe that Master is here, and he will not shield the evil ghosts." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke for a long time.
This time, no one was clamoring to go up the mountain, but they didn't want to retreat, and the atmosphere fell into a stagnation for a while.
It's in this weird atmosphere where pins fall and you can smell it.
Suddenly, someone spoke, and the man's voice was slightly cold, and he said meaningfully: "With Mr. Yin, we naturally don't dare to make a mistake, even if there are really evil ghosts doing evil?" Mr. Yin is meddling in the matter, do we dare to have any opinions..."
The yin and yang of these words were weird, and Jiang Cheng was annoyed when he heard this.
Someone started and someone spoke.
A young monk said: "Speaking of which, I have been to Twilight Mountain a few times before, but I haven't gone up, but I have met Mr. Yin a few times, he is with a young ghost, and his demeanor is spoiled... This terrible ghost in the twilight mountain, shouldn't it be that he raised it? ”
As soon as these words came out like hot oil in a pot, someone immediately answered: "Mr. Yin actually raises powerful ghosts? And what else is there? ”
"I'm afraid there are hundreds of ghosts on this twilight mountain, Mr. Yin doesn't live in seclusion on the mountain, he comes here alone to be with the ghosts, but we haven't heard the slightest rumor..."
"It's scary to think about it!"
Faced with the malicious speculation of these people, Jiang Cheng said angrily: "Enough! Master stays here, naturally he has his reasons, don't forget, if it wasn't for Master, how could you seal the ghosts and gods! ”
Yu Chun sneered: "Sealing the ghosts and gods, is it the credit of him Yin Xun alone?" At the beginning, the ninety-nine predecessors of our Xuanmen did not hesitate to sacrifice their own blood in order to seal the ghosts and gods, but in the end, only he Yin Xun came back alive, and our Xuanmen hundred families suffered heavy losses, so many predecessors were buried there... If it weren't for that, how would our Xuanmen have fallen to this point? ”
This has spoken to the hearts of many people.
At the beginning, in order to seal the ghosts and gods, the masters of the Xuanmen did their best, but none of them came back, and since then the Xuanmen has been in a slump, and now even these little ghosts dare to be so arrogant!
Everyone was indignant in their hearts, and many of them lost their sect elders in that incident.
Why is Yin Xun the only one who came back alive? What happened in the first place? Although everyone didn't dare to say anything on the surface, they couldn't help but be suspicious deep down.
After all, Yin Xun is not a good person...
At the beginning, one person destroyed a sect, and he has always been alone, doing things casually, such a person... It's no wonder what you do.
Yu Chun said: "Jiang Cheng, if it wasn't for your great-grandfather Mr. Jiang's invitation, Yin Xun would not have participated in the matter of sealing ghosts and gods, your Jiang family wants to come and have a lot to do with him, so naturally you want to help him speak, but don't forget, Mr. Jiang himself couldn't come back, all the people who went were dead, only Yin Xun was still alone... Now that Xuanmen respects him, no one is his opponent, and he has not grown old or died for so many years, and now it is still unclear whether he is a human or a ghost! ”
"That is, why do good people stay with a bunch of bad ghosts?"
"How old is Mr. Yin now, has anyone seen him? Is it really the same as it was back then? What kind of evil sect is this? ”
"If Yin Xun hadn't gone at the beginning, maybe so many people wouldn't have died..."
"Many of us have predecessors who died there, but Yin Xun kept silent about everything back then, and kept it secret, if there is no ghost in his heart, why can't he tell us?"
Jiang Cheng was almost about to make a move, he had lived with Yin Xun for several years, although Yin Xun had an indifferent personality, he was by no means a person with ill intentions in these mouths!
Yuan Simiao's beard trembled angrily, he was one of the few people who knew the truth, Yin Xun paid a heavy price for this, he had been tortured by the power of ghosts and gods for so many years, he tried his best to help Yin Xun make medicine, but he could only watch Yin Xun get out of control step by step, and gradually unable to suppress it, they didn't know what Yin Xun had paid!
But he couldn't say anything, if he really said it, with the suspicion and timidity of these people, he would only be even more intolerant of Yin Xun, and he would really be speechless at that time.
Yu Chun smiled and said, "Of course, we didn't say that Mr. Yin colluded with ghosts, after all, these are just speculations... It's just that since Mr. Yin is here, let's go up and meet him and ask him to give us an explanation, isn't that too much? ”
"Yes, yes, since Mr. Yin is on the mountain, if he opens his mouth and promises not to let the evil ghosts do evil, we will naturally believe it."
"In any case, if there is no one to say today, we will never leave."
..................
Xu Deng didn't wait long, and Liu Wenzhi came back.
Liu Wenzhi said to Xu Deng worriedly: "I told them, that ghost didn't kill anyone, and we won't hand over people, but they don't seem to be willing to give up." ”
In fact, I don't blame Liu Wenzhi for being timid, there are so many people below, any one of them can deal with him.
Xu Deng smiled: "It's okay, you've done a good job." ”
There is no evidence on his side, and Xu Dengben didn't expect to be able to convince others in this way, but what should be said is still to say, salute first and then soldier, if you still don't give up, you won't be afraid of them.
The evil ghost stood aside thoughtfully, if those Xuanmen really hit, and Xu Deng was defeated, wouldn't he be able to take the opportunity to run away? On the other hand, if Xu Deng is not even afraid of these people, he is also a good backer, and he doesn't seem to lose money by following him?
The fight started, and the evil ghost stood there with the intention of watching the excitement and not thinking that it would be a big deal.
The ghost general is gearing up, since it was caught by Xu Deng, it has been very aggrieved, and no one has been killed until now, it would be good if it could fight a big battle today!
Liu Wenzhi was worried, he had a good time during this time, and he didn't know how comfortable he was, but he didn't expect trouble to come, and he couldn't help sighing.
What Xia Yingying and Zhuang Qi thought was that no matter what, they would definitely stand on Xu Deng's side and face something together!
Xu Deng didn't know that everyone was like a big enemy, he didn't take this matter in his eyes at all, in the original book, in order to deal with himself, Xuanmen was not as strict as this time, but which time was not Xuanmen returned, this time there were only a few people...
Even the last wounded by the siege was deliberately done by him.
Except for the master of the mysterious male protagonist in the book, it is impossible for anyone to kill him.
Xu Deng thought casually, if there is really a fight today, will he be considered to appear in advance?
I don't know where the male protagonist is now.,I'm changing the plot, right?
Xu Deng was thinking about it, and a little ghost ran over in a hurry and shouted, "Oh no! Those people from the Xuanmen came up, and we couldn't stop them! ”
It seems that today is not good, Xu Deng is not afraid of these troublemakers, but he is very worried about Yin Xun, don't make a fuss later, let the blind know...
Seeing that the people from Xuanmen were about to come up, Xu Deng decided to stop the people first.
But just as Xu Deng was about to leave, Yin Xun walked out of the house.
It's really early and late, but it's coming out now! Xu Deng's eyes rolled and he said, "I suddenly have something to go out for, you wait for me at home, don't go out, okay?" ”
In the past, as long as he spoke like this, Yin Xun would never respond and would definitely agree to him.
But this time Yin Xun didn't respond, but looked helpless, sighed and said, "I'll go." ”
He originally wanted to tell the boy his identity in person, at least so that he could say it slowly and not be too caught off guard... But those people are too uninteresting to come up this time.
Although the young man is not afraid of them, he is not tactful enough, and he is a powerful ghost, if he really hurts people with his hands, he is only afraid that he will not die in the future, and there will be no room for turnaround.
If Xu Deng wants to live an ordinary life, he can't go head-to-head with these people, otherwise it will be endless trouble, and there will be no peace.
Xu Deng didn't know what Yin Xun was thinking, and was stunned when he heard this, what does this mean? What does it mean to let him go? Does he know what he's going to do?
Xu Deng was confused.
Yin Xun noticed the young man's confused eyes, raised his hand and touched his head, lowered his head and said softly: "I'm sorry, I'll explain to you when I come back, okay?" ”
So saying, he went straight down the mountain.
Xu Deng was suddenly very anxious, and he didn't have time to think about the deep meaning of Yin Xun's words, his mind was full of finished, finished! Now the people below are all from the Xuanmen, Yin Xun will go out now, and people will see him alone and live with the ghosts, will they misunderstand Yin Xun! What if you accidentally hurt the blind man?
And in this case, his identity will also be exposed!
Although he had already decided to separate, he still didn't want Yin Xun to know that he was a ghost...
No, no, no!
Xu Deng grabbed Yin Xun and said anxiously incoherently: "You better go home first!" I, I..."
Yin Xun soothed his hand and shook his hand soothingly, his voice low but firm: "I know that you have been protecting me, but I also want to protect you, do you understand?" ”
Xu Deng: Is this the time to talk about this?!
He's going to die!
But he didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of hurting Yin Xun, and for fear of exposing his identity...
Yin Xun didn't look strong, he looked sick and emaciated, but he walked steadily, and Xu Deng couldn't stop him at all if he didn't use his strength!
And at this moment when they are entangled, the group of people from Xuanmen have already come up!
The two sides met halfway up the mountain!
Xu Deng: ...
There are many people in the Xuanmen who are violent, Xu Deng's face sank, when it comes to this, he can't take care of it so much, he must not let Yin Xun get hurt, he is going to take action immediately! But no matter how hard he tried, his hand was firmly held by Yin Xun, and he couldn't pull it out.
Xu Deng was dumbfounded.
Before, he couldn't pull it out because of disguise, but now that he has blurred and exploded, he can't even pull out his hand?!
Xu Deng raised his eyes in a daze, he saw Yin Xun showing him a gentle smile, and said softly: "Don't worry, let me come." ”
And at this very moment-
The menacing group of people in the Xuanmen suddenly stopped together, and they all showed awe-inspiring and dignified expressions. No matter what they think in their hearts, but those are groundless speculations, and when they really face Yin Xun, they still don't dare to be presumptuous and respectful.
Yu Chun's mind was full of thoughts, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Mr. Yin." ”
Mr. Yin?
Who is Mr. Yin?
Xu Deng glanced at these people in confusion, he was not afraid of them, but didn't you come to shout and kill? What does it mean to be so polite? Even in the face of the evil ghost in the original book, although Xuanmen is invincible, he would rather die than give in... Even if you are afraid, you will never be so respectful and polite, and you are not surnamed Yin...
Yin Xun directly ignored Yu Chun, faced Jiang Cheng and Yuan Simiao's direction, and bowed lightly: "You are also here." ”
Yuan Simiao sighed, and her voice was helpless: "It's me who has the responsibility." ”
Jiang Cheng shouted excitedly: "Master." ”
Xu Deng: ?
It was only then that he realized that these people were not shouting about themselves, they were shouting blind.
However, isn't he Wang Tong's poor disabled son?!
Xu Deng looked at Yin Xun.
The man still looks indifferent as usual, but now in the face of many Xuanmen masters, his attitude is as casual as usual, but those people in the Xuanmen look awe and jealous...
The scene in front of me seemed so strange and unfamiliar.
made Xu Deng's brain blank.
Yu Chun was very annoyed in the face of such indifference, but he didn't dare to show it to his face, his eyes swept over the hands of the two of them, and he said in a weird manner: "Mr. Yin is so close to this ghost, I don't know what the relationship is?" ”
Yin Xun seemed to have finally noticed him, and his voice was hoarse with a hint of indifference and casualness, and said, "I need to explain to you?" ”
Yu Chun: "You-"
Yuan Simiao smiled bitterly, Yin Xun is this stinky temper, but Yu Chun is not the only one who cares about this matter now.
In the eyes of everyone's questioning and dissatisfied, Yin Xun laughed lightly.
The corners of his lips lifted slightly: "You think this is a terrible ghost that I raised?" ”
At this moment, many people's hearts went up, and the scene was quiet.
Yin Xun is neither good nor evil, on the surface, people respect him for sealing ghosts and gods, and they are afraid of his unfathomable strength, but in fact, there is not necessarily no slander in his heart, so there is the discussion just now.
If Yin Xun has been living in seclusion in the mountains, it is just a matter of escaping from the world, if he enters the world and raises powerful ghosts, of course everyone is afraid and uneasy!
Jiang Cheng knew that others were suspicious of Yin Xun, but he would never doubt the master, so he immediately stood up and said angrily: "No matter what the relationship between the master and Xu Deng is, as long as Xu Deng doesn't do evil and hurt people, why are you meddling?" When a person dies, he is a ghost, and a ghost may not necessarily do evil, so don't you all die?! ”
Yu Chun didn't dare to lose his temper with Yin Xun, but he was not polite to Jiang Cheng, and sneered: "Jiang Cheng, we can understand your feelings for defending your master, but the fact is that ghosts are easily affected by anger and harm others, do you want to ignore the facts?" ”
Jiang Cheng scolded angrily: "It's you who ignore the facts!" ”
And Xu Deng, who was shocked to the point of dazedness, seemed to wake up suddenly when he heard the name Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng...
Jiang Cheng!
Isn't this the name of the male protagonist in the book?
Xu Deng looked at the past fixedly, and finally remembered.
He remembered that he had seen Jiang Cheng once, it was at the foot of the mountain, Yin Xun asked him to buy him water, and when he came back, the young man was there, but Yin Xun lied that he was asking for directions...
Could it be that Yin Xun asked himself to buy water just to deliberately support himself?
Jiang Cheng is also called Master Yin Xun...
Xu Deng showed a look of disbelief, as if he had never known the people around him.
Could it be that the blind man is the master of the male protagonist Jiang Cheng, the strongest monk in the book, and the last person to kill him in the book?
