Really not a villain

The days that followed were as peaceful as an illusion.

When Su Chongjiu came back from buying medicine in the town, he said that he saw a lot of suspicious people and brought back a piece of news.

Qingyuntai did not re-establish the Nanzhou Inspection Department, but established a new division for the suppression of chaos.Zhenchao Division Zhenchao Division, as the name suggests.As for the chaos in the town, everyone knows it well.The governor of this chaos suppression department is none other than Zhao Wuwang.

"You said that Zhao Wuwang worked so hard to climb up to the position of the inspector general, and suddenly he was thrown to be the governor of the chaos suppression department, would he die of anger?"

Su Chongjiu said: "Xuan Yichen is not stupid. When such a big incident happened, one has to investigate the ins and outs. After this investigation, how can Zhao Wuwang do those things that are hidden. He dispatched Zhao Wuwang to do it The governor of the Suppressing Chaos Department can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

"Huh? Kill two birds with one stone?"

"Why are you always so stupid in this regard?" Su Chongjiu casually picked up the scallions in the basket and shook him lightly, "There are so many inspection divisions, but there is only one chaos suppression division, although they are all inner sect disciples, But the position must have been demoted, just to warn Zhao Wuwang, this is one of them. Since the mess was caused by Zhao Wuwang himself, naturally he has to clean it up by himself, and lead the chaos suppression department to settle us and make up for the mistakes. Second."

"Oh." Mu Jiangling was stunned.

"Qingyuntai wants to use this matter to control the jurisdiction more tightly, this is the third."

Both of them turned their heads together, and saw Pei Xing leaning on the door with a cane, his black eyes were shining brightly, and the cinnabar mole under his eyes was dazzling.

Both of them stared blankly.Mu Jiangling came back to his senses, went to help him to sit on the low stool in the kitchen, stepped back half a step, and said with a smile, "You look pretty good."

Pei Xing couldn't help clenching his hand holding the cane, and nodded: "These days, thank you very much."

Mu Jiangling said: "We are leaving tonight. I haven't asked you yet, do you have family? We will send you back. It is me that Qingyuntai is going to arrest, and it has nothing to do with you. You can rest assured."

Pei Xing paused and said, "No."

"Then you follow us for now." As soon as Mu Jiangling spoke, he was slapped by Su Chongjiu, and he couldn't help but feel a headache, "Well, Ah Jiu, I..."

"It's up to you." Su Chongjiu was too lazy to talk to him, anyway, the result was the same, and turned to Pei Xing, "The third thing you said, what is the reason?"

"Except for the supervisors, the inspectors are all outer disciples, good and bad, and even secretly collude with the cultivation family. Immortal sect thinks highly of itself, how can they tolerate these outer disciples acting like demons. The inspector is the founder of the immortal sect If you want to start a new stove, you must need an impeccable statement." Pei Xing said unhappily, his voice was soft, but inexplicably convincing, "Qingyuntai has been aware of it for a long time, but it is difficult to clean it up. There is a logical reason for the collapse of the Nanzhou Inspection Department. In the future, the Disturbance Department will definitely replace the Inspection Department."

Su Chongjiu curled her lips: "Secret collusion? You said it clearly and logically, as if you had seen it with your own eyes."

Pei Xing lowered his eyes and remained silent.

"Okay, okay, since Pei Xing wants to go with us, I have to find something to transport me. I just brought a horse back from the market. By the way, can you ride a horse?"

"No." Su Chongjiu stopped him, "He's still injured and weak, so riding a horse will kill him?"

Mu Jiangling scratched his head: "Then what should I do? How about I weave a bamboo chair out of the saddle?"

Su Chongjiu raised his forehead: "Hurry up, get it done before dark."

"Then I'll go."

Once Mu Jiangling left, there were only two people left in the kitchen.

Su Chongjiu peeled a few leaves of cabbage, finely chopped them, put them in the pot, and started peeling radishes again.

Pei Xing sat on the low stool without making a sound.

Suddenly a carrot fell to the ground and rolled slowly to Pei Xing's feet.Pei Xing was about to pick it up, but Su Chongjiu picked it up first, the two men met their eyes, relatively speechless, and the atmosphere was awkward.Su Chongjiu suddenly said: "I hope you don't make things difficult for him."

Pei Xingdao: "You are ashamed of him."

"It's not your turn to gossip." Su Chongjiu said coldly, "He looks like he doesn't care about anything, but he is actually very stubborn, stubborn as hell. I can't persuade him, but don't rely on this Do whatever you want. If there is danger, I will not show mercy to you, you must die first."

"Why did he save me?"

"I don't know!" Su Chongjiu became angry when he mentioned this, "It's clear that I can't protect myself, and I still have to bring a mop bottle! To be honest, I think you are quite unpleasant, and you are silent all day long. What... Forget it, you, remember to go to the pharmacy next door to take the medicine back later, and ask him to change it for you. Don’t take it wrong, the white porcelain bottle with no pattern, and there is still a box of ointment on the third shelf, For removing scars, take it away and apply it on your own. It’s smoked by firewood here, don’t stay here, let me go quickly.”

Pei Xing responded, took the crutch leaning against the table, walked slowly to the pharmacy, looked at the white porcelain bottle, took the ointment on the shelf, and lifted the lid.He suddenly pursed his lips and smiled lightly.

Knife mouth tofu heart.

In this world, how can there be such a good two people.

Together, Mu Jiangling and Su Chongjiu decided to leave Nanzhou and head towards Qinzhou.

Before leaving, Pei Xing said in astonishment: "Do you want to pass through Sanxi?"

"Well, why, can't we go there?" Mu Jiangling led the horse over, and there was a delicate bamboo chair with cushions on the horse's back.

"It's nothing. Walking from Sanxi is indeed the fastest way to leave Nanzhou."

Su Chongjiu was carrying a medicine box on his back, and urged: "Let's go, I've brought all the medicines."

Mu Jiangling nodded and said, "Let's go."

Three people and one horse set out on the road in the dark.

Pei Xing's deduction was correct. When the Suppressing Chaos Division was first established, most of the inner disciples who were accustomed to arrogance refused to obey. Zhao Wuwang was in a state of desperation, and there must be insufficient manpower to be sent to follow up, so there were hardly any pursuers on the road.

Only one time.

On the steep cliff mountain road, a group of disciples of the Suppressing Chaos Division came head-on.There is no way to avoid meeting each other on a narrow road.

The leader was taken aback for a moment, and then said contemptuously: "Isn't this the culprit who slaughtered the Nanzhou Inspection Department? I saw it at the Wentian Festival, and I thought I was a young talent. No manners."

Mu Jiangling shook his head and said, "Don't you guys know that talking less is better?"

Su Chongjiu: "Jiangling!?"

Before the words were finished, Mu Jiangling had already rushed over, and Hongchen got out of the sheath in his hand.The next moment, blood splashed on the cliff.

Su Chongjiu watched helplessly as half of the cliff was stained red with blood, panicked screams rang out in his ears, he froze in place, a chill came out from the bottom of his heart, and even his fingertips were trembling.

"Mu...Mu Jiangling!!!"

Mu Jiangling withdrew his sword from the last person's body, turned his head slowly, with a little blood on his face, and asked blankly, "Ah Jiu?"

"you……"

Before Su Chongjiu said anything, Mu Jiangling looked down at the blood on his hands, suddenly his face turned pale, he dropped his sword, leaned on the cliff wall and retched, almost fell off the cliff staggeringly.The anxious Su Chongjiu almost threw the rein and was about to go over, but fortunately he did not forget that there was another person on the horse.

When camping for a short rest, Mu Jiangling ran to soak in the stream for a long, long time.Su Chongjiu couldn't see it, and dragged him up, trying to scold him for not knowing how to take care of his body, held back for a long time, but didn't say a word, instead, his eyes turned red, and he walked away silently.

Pei Xing quietly sat not far from Mu Jiangling, and handed him a small jar of candied fruit.It was given by Su Chongjiu, saying that the prescription he prescribed was too bitter, so he stuffed it into his hand and ran away.

Mu Jiangling was roasting on the fire, lowered his head, sniffed, and said, "Thank you."

"You told me not to force it." Pei Xing said lightly, "I'm not forcing it."

"We can't let them go. Not even one of them." Mu Jiangling buried his face in his hands and said incoherently, "It's all blood."

Pei Xing added a piece of firewood to the fire, and the orange fire reflected in his eyes flickering on and off.

"There are some things that you can't do if you don't want to."

"……I know."

"Besides, I think you are very good, and there is nothing wrong with you."

Mu Jiangling raised his head: "They're just following orders, aren't I, am I killing people indiscriminately?"

"Indiscriminate killing?" Pei Xing chewed on these two words, raised his eyes, and the flames reflected in his eyes for a moment, "Everything has a cause and effect. They want to kill you first, and you take their lives later. What's wrong?" have?"

"Uh..." Mu Jiangling was blocked by this simple and crude logic, but he felt something was wrong and couldn't say it.

Pei Xingdao: "But killing people is not a good thing. It's fine if you don't like it."

Mu Jiangling said: "If you say that, wouldn't I be good everywhere?"

Pei Xing rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It was very good."

Mu Jiangling was not a person who was easily entangled, so he was flattered by a few compliments and comforted for a while, and soon he became lively again from the state of baji, and took a jar of candied fruit and stuffed it into his mouth. .

"Keep it, I still need to take medicine."

Mu Jiangling's mouth was full, sweet tears were about to come down: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Su Chongjiu's prescriptions have good effects and immediate results, but the taste is really not flattering.However, no matter what kind of medicine, Pei Xing could drink it without changing his face, and thanked him after drinking it.This move successfully won Su Chongjiu's favor, not only eased his face towards Pei Xing a lot, but also seriously improved the taste of the medicine.

Pei Xing seemed to think about it for a while: "...It's better to keep the candied fruit."

Mu Jiangling was deeply touched: "I understand, I understand."

Apart from this small twist, the journey was uneventful.But not long after entering the boundary of Sanxi, Mu Jiangling was once again in a state of desperation, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Pei Xing is missing.
