The sea of ​​suffering is boundless, it is me who turns back

39.

A big fire broke out on the east side of the Division of Disciplines, and the light of the fire rose from the high wall. When a gust of wind blew, it rose a little higher. The pungent burnt smell soon permeated, and gray-black smoke was everywhere.

And Lian Sheng was imprisoned in the dungeon on the west side of the Disciplinary Department, which was very close to where Gu Zhizhou was imprisoned.

People ran by from time to time, probably going to fight the fire, in a hurry, and some even had buckets in their hands, and they sprinkled the ground as soon as they ran.

Gu Zhizhou covered his nose and avoided it carefully, for fear that if he accidentally slipped and fell, he would not be able to stand up.

In the confusion, Gao Xun roared: "Listen up, Division of Discipline, the first team and the second team go to put out the fire, and the third team follows me to the dungeon."

Gao Xun yelled vigorously, but now the entire Disciplinary Department was in chaos, and there was no one listening to him. When they ran to the dungeon with difficulty, they looked back and saw a few people behind them.

Gao Xun was speechless and wanted to curse, but Gu Zhizhou's expression suddenly changed.

He subconsciously looked into the depths of the dungeon. This is the cell of the Disciplinary Department to imprison the repeat offenders. There are copper walls on all sides and spells inside and out. Only the great demons and immortals have the opportunity to live here.But at this moment, the outer formation was broken, the iron door of the cell was wide open, and there was no trace of Lian Sheng in the empty dungeon.

"Fuck!" Gao Xun spat, "Hurry up and chase me!"

Just as he finished speaking, a bleak sword light suddenly flashed in front of his eyes.He subconsciously raised his hand to block it, and felt that the sword's light was so blue and so familiar.

Gao Xun's heart tightened, and he immediately drew his sword to resist.

Gu Zhizhou seemed to be stabbed by the sword light, and his eyes were completely white.There was the sound of swords colliding in the ear, and occasionally a few drops of hot blood fell on the side of the neck and the back of the hands, merging with the hot body.

Then his legs went limp, and he fell to the ground as if his strength had been drained, and he fell into darkness in an instant.

·

Gu Zhizhou didn't faint for long, and when he woke up, he felt a splitting headache.

He couldn't help frowning, and when his shoulders moved, there was a burst of extremely soft sourness.He seems to be holding something in his hand, and the texture seems to be... Xiaohe?

Wasn't Xiaohe confiscated by the Disciplinary Department long ago?

Gu Zhizhou came back to his senses, his eyes fell on the top of the barn in the dungeon, a trace of blood drifted through his nasal cavity that was blocked by the wind and cold.He sat up propping up, his palms were wet and slippery, and his stomach couldn't help but churn.

Gu Zhizhou's face was pale, and his lips were unnaturally gray.

Beside him, several people were lying here and there, motionless, as if they had lost their voices.

Blood flowed from their bodies, scattered and pooled together, all the way to Gu Zhizhou's side, dyeing his light blue robe red.

"Gao Xun..."

Gu Zhizhou saw Gao Xun lying at the door, his face was like gold paper, the sword was still in his hand, but it was broken.

He stood up with difficulty, swaying his whole body, stepped across a river of blood, and staggered to the door.

"Gao Xun!"

Gu Zhizhou shook Gao Xun, there were several blood holes on this man's body, countless large and small sword marks, many wounds no longer leaked blood, and there were blood scabs all over his body, which was very tragic.

Gu Zhizhou raised his throat in one breath, and stretched out a finger to probe his breath.

That hand had distinct joints, was long and powerful, and could break a person's neck with one blow.But at this moment, it was bright red and mottled, and even the crevices of the nails were sticky.

Suddenly, the footsteps came one after another, hurried, fierce, from far to near, as if there were thousands of troops.

Before Gu Zhizhou could react, a flash of spiritual light hit his wrist.With a pain in his wrist, he withdrew his hand.

Looking up again, there was a man in silver armor standing in front of the door—it was the star-breaking general of the heavenly realm, Chu Cheng.

The same martial artist that Chu Cheng and the Emperor Longyuan worshiped, they were considered brothers earlier, and after Longyuan came to the throne, he was named the Star-breaking General. He held a heavy army and fought for many years. personal soldier.

This person had a pair of awe-inspiring eyes, and when he stood there, he was not angry and arrogant, and his aura of not getting close to strangers was a hundred times stronger than that of Gu Zhizhou.After a long experience in the battlefield, when he was young, he was stationed in the wilderness outside the sky all the year round, and he honed his iron frame to be invulnerable to wind and sand.

"Gu Zhizhou set fire to the Disciplinary Department, released the demon king privately, and murdered Gao Xun, the head of the Disciplinary Department. Capture him immediately and take him back to Poxing Palace!"

The corner of Gu Zhizhou's mouth twitched, this was also someone who didn't like him.

"I didn't kill people."

Chu Cheng looked Gu Zhizhou from top to bottom, his body was soaked in blood, and the blood on the Xiaohe sword in his hand was almost dry.He waved his hand, and the star-breaking army outside the door rushed in with long knives and surrounded Gu Zhizhou. The dark dungeon was illuminated by countless sword lights.

"What were you doing before I entered?" Chu Cheng asked coldly.

Gu Zhizhou met Chu Cheng's gaze, and his pale face suddenly became firm because of physical discomfort: "Let me see if Gao Xun is dead."

"I'm afraid not." Chu Cheng glanced at Gao Xun on the ground: "You are afraid that he is not dead, and you want to avoid future troubles forever."

Gu Zhizhou sneered: "If I make a move, there will be no possibility of death at all."

"Gu Zhizhou, you really have confidence in yourself."

"I just want to say that if I really did it, Gao Xun would be out of his wits by now."

Chu Cheng frowned, and immediately asked people to come up to check Gao Xun's breath, and found that he still had a breath: "Take him down and guard him heavily. No one is allowed to approach except those who believe in Fangzhou."

Gu Zhizhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the moment he opened his eyes, he saw such a situation that he couldn't explain to anyone, and his methods were really low.Now the only hope is on Gao Xun. He is the only survivor who has fought with the murderer. As long as he doesn't die, everything will be fine.

Chu Cheng bent down and turned over the corpse at his feet, and asserted: "The sword marks on the corpse all came from Xiaohe, Gu Zhizhou, you still want to quibble. You must have released Liansheng privately and was discovered by the Disciplinary Department. Kill them all. It's a pity that Gao Xun's fate is out of your way. If I didn't arrive in time, your treacherous plan will succeed!"

"Fart you!" Gu Zhizhou scolded: "I was confiscated when I pulled the sword here, and they were already lying here when I opened my eyes. What does it matter to me? Can you use your brain before you speak? Oh, Whether Gao Xun is dead or not, you will all think that I did it, and if I kill someone and don’t run away, I have to make up for it again? Am I sick? Can’t you see such an obvious framing?"

"Don't force your words!" Chu Cheng yelled: "Arrest Gu Zhizhou quickly, and wait for me to serve you with 72 punishments in the Star Palace. I'll see if you recruit or not!"

"You're a fucking trick!"

Gu Zhizhou swung his long sword horizontally, and spiritual light overflowed from under the sword in an instant, shaking all the people around him away.

"Gu Zhizhou resisted the order and resisted arrest! Don't let him escape!"

The fire earlier was so fierce that sparks can still be seen on the east side of the Division of Disciplines.Unavoidably, the fire became more and more intense, Master Yu personally came to the scene and spread a rain in Jiuchongtian. The Disciplinary Department had just been burned, and now it was flooded again, causing chaos everywhere.

Gu Zhizhou took advantage of the chaos and ran out, the speed was not fast, he took a step and panted three times, all relying on his strength not to be caught.

This Chu Cheng is more rigid than Qi Wu, more difficult than Gao Xun, his eyes are either black or white, and no one can change what he believes.Gu Zhizhou is about to be arrested and brought back. Before the truth is found out, the severe punishments from the Star-breaking Palace will take half his life first.

The star-breaking army behind him was chasing after him, with blades brushing against his feet non-stop.

Gu Zhizhou's whole body was weak, the high fever persisted, and he broke out in cold sweats frequently. The burst of spiritual power just now almost exhausted all his strength.

"Negative Snow Lord!"

Someone called him in front of him, Gu Zhizhou raised his eyes and saw that it was Qi Wu.

Qi Wu was investigating the murder of the elder of Yulian Peak, when he heard that the Disciplinary Department was on fire, Lian Sheng disappeared, and even General Chu Cheng, the star-breaking general, was alarmed.Fearing that something would happen to Gu Zhizhou, he ordered a few people to rush over, but he bumped into Gu Zhizhou and was chased by others.

When did the majestic Celestial Snow Immortal Venerable be in such a state of embarrassment?

Gu Zhizhou was worried about where to hide, seeing Qi Wu was like seeing a savior: "Lian Sheng ran away, Gao Xun was seriously injured, Chu Cheng said I did it."

He confessed clearly in one sentence, and his body fell straight down, being supported by Qi Wu's arms.

"how so!"

"It's the same person who killed Jingchoujinggang, and he came after me." Panting heavily, Gu Zhizhou glanced back: "They are going to catch up, I can't be arrested to the Poxing Palace, that's where I went I can't get out."

Qi Wu naturally understood: "I cover you to go."

So, Qi Wu half-protected and half-covered Gu Zhizhou and ran forward, followed by Yingwu Tianbing, who looked like they were helping to chase someone from behind, but in fact Gu Zhizhou was held by Qi Wu.

Chu Cheng's cultivation level was not below Gu Zhizhou's, so he soon caught up behind him.

He saw through Qi Wu's actions at a glance, and almost exploded his lungs: "Qi Wu! You are helping the evildoers!"

With a roar, Chu Cheng took out a scimitar half the length of a man, and swiped forward.

After all, it has been battle-tested, this saber is powerful and aggressive, coming like a wind blowing sand.

Gu Zhizhou reacted quickly and pushed Qi Wu away, struggling to meet him, Xiaohe burst out a dazzling blue light in an instant, and Xiao Suo's sword energy broke through the shadows of the sword.

With a sound of "boom", the spiritual energy collided in the air, bursting out huge sparks, and the sky pillars on the side fell down row after row.

Gu Zhizhou's chest hurt, and he knelt on the ground with one knee, supporting Xiaohe so that he didn't fall down, a blush overflowed from the corner of his lips.

With such a big commotion, the surrounding immortal officials came one after another, and no one dared to step forward seeing this scene.

Chu Cheng took a few steps back, raised his knife again and flew over the clouds.

Gu Zhizhou tried his best to accept the move, the swords met, the machete pressed tightly against Xiaohe and struck into the flesh on his shoulder, adding another touch of color to the gown that was already splashed with blood.

"Gu Zhizhou, catch him without a fight!"

"Capture your grandma!" Gu Zhizhou slammed his head, Xiaohe cut Chu Cheng's attack from the side, and slashed across his left arm diagonally.

Chu Cheng dodged to dodge, but the back of the knife fell down, hitting Gu Zhizhou's back hard.

Gu Zhizhou's eyes darkened, his whole body's bones were about to be broken by this blow, and he just fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Chu Cheng still refused to give up, and raised the handle of the knife again, ready to strike again.

The scimitar was infused with spiritual power, and the streamer became weaker and brighter. People nearby were oppressed by the strong aura and avoided it.

Even a fool can see that Chu Cheng is going to deal a ruthless blow. If this knife goes down, Mr. Xuexue's spine may be broken.

Qi Wu was startled when he saw it, he put up the life-snatching knife to resist a little: "General Chu, absolutely not, this matter is not yet clear, so we can't make a rash decision!"

Chu Cheng couldn't hear other people's disobedience, so he snapped, "I'm going to cut off his way today!"

After finishing speaking, the scimitar passed over his head and swung it down without hesitation.

The forceful sword's momentum stirred up waves and waves, and it was about to fall on Gu Zhizhou's back.At this moment, a red light came flying in the distance, and there was a sound of "Zeng", the sharp blade brushed against the scimitar, and slammed the blade away abruptly.

Chu Cheng slipped his hand, and the back of the knife hit the ground, only an inch away from Gu Zhizhou.

The silver sword light flashed in front of him, and Chu Cheng almost thought he was dazzled.

For hundreds of years, he had only seen such a pure sword light on two people.

One is Gu Zhizhou who is lying on the ground and can't move. He can't protect himself now, let alone use a sword, I'm afraid he can't even lift it up.

There is another one—Gu Zhizhou's fellow apprentice, a traitor who broke his sword and left the sect 100 years ago, the former Mingzhu Lord who ruled the heavens, and now the Shura Taoist master Fu Ziqiu.

But his sword...hasn't it been broken long ago?

Cang Lang swaggered around in front of Chu Cheng and returned to his master.

Fu Ziqiu appeared in front of everyone. He was dressed in red like fire, with a ghostly veil wrapping around his sharp jaw. Contrary to this, he was holding a long silver sword in his hand, the edge of which fell coldly. The chill is like his eyes, ice-like, just looking at it makes people feel cold all over.

Fu Ziqiu threw all kinds of sword shadows with his sword, blocking Chu Cheng's way like an iron wall.

Then he bent down and supported Gu Zhizhou.

As far as he could see, it was bright red, almost giving him the illusion that his blood was draining dry.Gu Zhizhou's face was pale and he had already lost consciousness.

Fu Ziqiu panicked and called him: "Zhizhou, Zhizhou..."

The drowsy person made a movement, whimpered like a cat, his eyelashes trembled, and he traced an outline not very clearly.

Gu Zhizhou was exhausted, his gray lips moved.

Fu Ziqiu leaned closer to listen, but was pierced by thousands of arrows in the next moment——

Gu Zhizhou was in a daze, the pain all over his body made him unable to distinguish his age, he just felt that there was a place to confide in all his sufferings.The consciousness drifted farther and farther, and finally returned to the Broken Sword Cliff covered with wind and snow.

With difficulty, he snuggled into Fu Ziqiu's icy embrace, hooked his little finger around the corner of his clothes, and stubbornly thought that as long as he spoke now, everything could start over.

So he said intermittently:

"Sword... I found it..."

"Help you fix it..."

"...Aqiu, come home with me."

"Go home..." Fu Ziqiu choked his throat, put his lips on Gu Zhizhou's forehead, and comforted him: "Let's go home."

The light wall built by the sword shadow was split by a knife, and Chu Cheng and the star-breaking army behind him swung their knives up at the same time. Thousands of sharp blades tore through the void, as if poking gaps one after another in the sky.

Fu Ziqiu looked up, his phoenix eyes were extremely fierce.The black ring on the index finger suddenly erupted with a very oppressive hostility, and it poured out like a nest of sand, rolling out bursts of black smoke endlessly.

Gui Wansha had already climbed onto his cheeks, and the acacia spot glowed slightly red between his brows.

"Fu Ziqiu, you are so courageous! How dare you come to the heavens to rob people and make trouble!"

Fu Ziqiu hugged Gu Zhizhou, his fiery red sleeves fluttering.He raised one corner of his mouth, and his smile was full of sinister: "I'm going to take him away today, let's see who can stop me!"

As soon as the words fell, the black energy on his body turned into countless vines, densely bundled together, strong and powerful, and drew directly towards Chu Cheng and the Star Breaker Army.

With a "swish", the Star Breaker Army was disrupted and scattered in all directions.Chu Cheng jumped up, raised the knife in his hand, and cut off the vines that swung in front of him.

Fu Ziqiu summoned Cang Lang with a swipe of his hand, and a flash of sword light was like thunder, and he swept towards Chu Cheng with his backhand.

Chu Cheng raised his saber in front, and the Star Breakers behind him stood next to each other, and put their hands on the back of the previous one, their spiritual powers connected, forming a white circle of light.

The thunder exploded beside the ear, and hit the aperture suddenly, followed by a louder bang, and the entire Nine Heavens shook.The aura was shattered, and the Starbreaker Army was torn apart by the thunder.Chu Cheng also suffered internal injuries, was ejected far away by that force, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Fu Ziqiu stopped, and ran away with Gu Zhizhou.
