Zhang Kuang leaned lightly on his shoulders, his eyebrows and eyelashes were thick and long, drooping a little softly, covering his clean black pupils, he seemed to be looking at himself, but his eyes were bewildered.

Her eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and the mist gradually condensed into water droplets, which slowly poured up, filling the entire eye sockets little by little, and wet the long and thin eyelashes.

Tears dripped from the corners of his eyes, mixed with dark red blood, and fell on the palm of his hand drop by drop, with a bit of scalding body temperature.

...Don't cry, don't cry.

Xia Zhitao hugged her neck, but he didn't dare to hug her too close, for fear of accidentally touching her wound.

The fence that had just been built was broken, she didn't want to pretend to be calm anymore, she also wanted to curse a few times happily, and also wanted to lower her head and kiss the red corners of her eyes.

However, she couldn't do it.Under the eyes of everyone in Yashan, she couldn't do anything.

You can't hug her too close, you can't shed tears, you can't see her, you can't coax her, you can't take her with you, just leave here like this.

The lower lip was bitten with sporadic blood, and the blood flowed into the throat, spreading a burst of sweetness, and she swallowed it tremblingly.

Someone raised his hand and put it lightly on her shoulder.

Xia Zhitao suddenly came back to her senses, she stabilized her confused mind, looked back, and saw Zheng Luo Yi and Zi Yun standing beside her, one looked nervous, the other was much calmer.

Ziyun sighed softly, removed the hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, let's go."

Xia Zhitao nodded, she carefully lifted Zhang Kuang up, let her half lean on her shoulder, and shifted all the weight over.

Zheng Luo Yi came to help, while Zi Yun stood a little further away.Her eyes fell on Zhang Kuang, looking at her blood-stained face with a slightly puzzled expression.

The three of them walked slowly, while the rest of the people followed behind. Xia Zhitao was vigilant all the way, but desperately did not find any omissions. He could only let the chains close with a "bang", and the weak water gushed out, wrapping the high-hanging platform Among them, all the way out was blocked.

She seems to have become two people, one is always calm and self-possessed, discussing with the peak owners with ease; the other doesn't care about anything, hiding far away in the corner, hiding her body in the shadows.

Xia Zhitao didn't know how she came back, she just seemed to lose her mind, and then she fell down in the room dejectedly.

The surroundings were all too familiar to her, she stood up staggeringly, her five fingers covering the edge of the table, and the wooden table was neatly stacked with papers full of words and sentences.

Xia Zhitao spread out the paper she had written on, the pen and ink had long since dried up, and the handwriting was extremely clear, "Avoid the sharp edge", "Live a stable life", "Stay out of the way"... It was densely packed with words that she loved when she first came to this world. The words I repeatedly told.

She used to, really just wanted to spend some days in peace, without fighting or seeking, without grabbing or grabbing, and slowly looking for a way to return to modern times.

Xia Zhitao suddenly laughed out loud, stretched out his hand to pile the neat papers into a pile, and tore them in half carefully and slowly starting from the middle.

.

About three or four days after Zhang Kuang was imprisoned, Jin Li finally found an opportunity to sneak out of Yuwan Peak while Zheng Luo Yi was away.

With things in mind, she moved a lot faster, almost galloping all the way to the top of Shuijing Peak.

Along the remote path all the way up, the wooden house at the end is Xia Zhitao's residence.

Jin Li took a deep breath, raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door, she waited anxiously, but not long after, the door was pushed open.

Holding a file in his hand, Xia Zhitao bowed slightly to her, and said, "Senior Sister Jin."

In the past, Xia Zhitao loved to laugh, and when looking at people warmly and moistly, there was always a smile on his face.

But at this time, she suppressed her smile, leaving only a flat expression on her face, which made it impossible to figure out what was going on in her mind, and the faint gaze that made Jin Li tremble in her heart.

Jin Li didn't hide it, and said directly: "What are you going to do about the matter of the leader?"

Xia Zhitao leaned half against the door frame, shook her head, and said softly, "...I don't know."

Her expression was too calm, and her indifference was a bit scary. Jin Li went back and forth in her heart, and after deliberating for a long time, she finally made up her mind: "Well, Junior Sister, leave the leader alone."

Xia Zhitao didn't speak, but glanced at her.

Jin Li's voice trembled slightly, she seemed to have made up her mind and said, "Leave the teacher alone, you will die."

"Actually... In fact, I always say that I am lucky, and I am not talking nonsense. As a koi carp family, I can see the luck on people, like when the sun falls on the body, it forms a layer of golden light. "

She was nervous and spoke quickly:

"In the beginning, the leader's luck was very strong, which is why I followed you. But recently, for some reason, her luck has become weaker and weaker, and in the end she has completely disappeared, leaving only a black outline."

Jin Li lowered her head and whispered: "...I only saw that kind of person once, and she died in the end."

Xia Zhitao asked back, "So?"

"I know you are worried," Jin Li said anxiously, "But if you insist on meddling, you will really die!"

Xia Zhitao said "Yes", and said softly, "Please let me go, I have to go out for a while."

"Junior Sister, don't listen to me!" Jin Li stomped her feet and stretched out her hand to pull her, "I'm serious, Zhang Kuang is completely hopeless, don't put yourself in it—"

"Let go."

Jin Li froze suddenly, Xia Zhitao looked calm, and repeated again: "Let go."

Jin Li let her go slowly, and stood aside with her head down, but she still stubbornly blocked the way, not wanting Xia Zhitao to go out.

Xia Zhitao sighed lightly, and said, "If you can see other people's luck, can you see mine?"

Jin Li paused, dawdling for a long time before saying nonchalantly: "I can't see it, I haven't seen it all the time."

"This kind of situation has never happened before," she whispered, "Either you are also a koi carp, or you are dead long ago, and the one standing in front of me is just a ghost... I always think it is the former."

Xia Zhitao said, "Neither of them."

"Since you can't see my luck," she said softly, "If I say that I want to take Zhang Kuang away, I want to save her—you have no way of knowing whether I will succeed or fail, right?"

Jin Li was stunned for a moment, then said falteringly, "Yes."

"So, you have to help me." Xia Zhitao smiled and said unhurriedly, "Either stay out of the matter and don't block the way."

The voice was extremely quiet, extremely cold, lingering with a cold killing intent, and the aura was so heavy that it completely knocked Jin Li into a daze.

Jin Li was completely dumbfounded, she froze at the door, Xia Zhitao rubbed her shoulder, and strode out.

Xia Zhitao unsheathed her long sword, summoned all her spiritual power, and was about to leave with the sword, but was stopped again.

"Xia, Zhi, Tao!"

Jin Li called out her first and last name, sighed heavily, and shouted loudly: "Okay, they are all fools, take me! I'm going to fight!"

Xia Zhitao sized her up, smiled half-smile, and said, "Changed your mind?"

Jin Li ran over in a small step, and muttered, "I've been following you for so long, and I'm sorry I don't work all the time. Anyway, I'm lucky, so I should be fine..."

"If you've made up your mind," Xia Zhitao weighed the file in his hand, "you can do me a favor."

Jinli said: "Let's talk, as long as it's not a difficult task such as murdering Mo Wusheng or being in charge of the sect, I will not hesitate to go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of ​​fire."

Xia Zhitao said, "It's not that kind."

She handed the dossier to Jin Li, took out another red leaf, and solemnly delivered it to the other party.

"I need you to go to Ligu, find the Qiye twins we saw in the demon forest, and give them these two things."

Xia Zhitao said: "I contacted Liu Ling two days ago, she will bring the apostle to help, Yanling Poison Pavilion promised not to intervene, Madam Gu Ji helped to disturb the sight, Jiang Jiuli is still in contact, and there is no response yet."

Li Gu, Qianren Mace, Yanling Poison Pavilion, Ghost City, Demon Realm——

There are so many anti-paths and forces, all of which are well-known and frightening beings. If you add up your brains, let alone rescue Zhang Kuang, if Mo Mo is silent, you can just beat Yashan down.

Jin Li's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it: "You said before that you didn't know, but all of a sudden you have so many plans?!"

Xia Zhitao smiled: "I lied to you."

"Although I have kept back, who knows if you can believe it," she said casually, "If you tell Yashan about me, what will you do with the crazy little guy?"

Jin Li: "..."

Xia Zhitao got angry, it was really scary.

.

Jin Li put the file and red leaves away, and ran down the mountain without delay, but the last person Xia Zhitao wanted was Yuwan Peak, Zheng Luoyi.

However, before she came to Yuwan Peak, Zheng Luo Yi came to find her by himself, followed by Jun Yuehou, the master of Yashan.

"Disciple Xia Zhitao, right?" Marquis Junyue said warmly, "Please come with us."

They came too suddenly, Xia Zhitao suddenly became suspicious, and the first time he thought of it was that Zheng Luoyi had told Yashan about himself and Zhang Kuang.

But seeing the gentle expressions of these two people, who were polite to him, Xia Zhitao dispelled the previous speculation, nodded and said: "I would like to follow Master's order."

She was a little uneasy, but she didn't ask any questions, and followed the two calmly, thinking about various possibilities in her heart.

The three of them walked with their swords, and soon came to the top of Yuebai Peak. Xia Zhitao looked around and found that he recognized this place——

Yashanshui prison, the place where madness is held.

Jun Yuehou lowered his long sword, lightly covered the rock with five fingers, said something softly, and the stone door beside him opened in response to the sound, revealing a passage hidden in the darkness.

He snapped his fingers, and the spiritual fires lit up one after another, illuminating the entire passage extremely brightly.

The three of them walked down the long cold stone steps step by step. The passage was long and cold, and water droplets fell from the top of their heads from time to time, hitting the ground with a "tick".

Walking through the deep passage, the line of sight suddenly opened up. Several chains were tied to the tall dome, falling down like spider webs, and tied to a white jade round platform surrounded by weak water.

"If you want to kill or slash, please listen and respect!"

Biting his lower lip, Zhang Kuang tensed his jaw, and said word by word: "Only you, dare to challenge me?"

Her voice was no longer cold as before, she was trembling uncontrollably due to the pain, her throat was full of blood, and the words were dizzy and hoarse and blurred.

"Let me tell you! Even if you bring that kid, it's useless to create 1 white crane illusions. If I see one, I'll dismantle one!"

Her skin was extremely pale, and her wrists were restrained by spirit locks. She knelt on the edge of the stone platform in a panic, with long black hair hanging loose, and her thinness could not be concealed.

Indifferently, he turned a deaf ear and said coldly, "Why did you destroy the Liuyao seal? Who are helping you?"

"... What is there to say!"

Zhang Kuang sneered and said: "I can break three of your ribs when you locked the Demon Tower, but I can still do it now—why, Fengxue Mountain Range is very happy to retreat, and I am anxious to go back?"

A peak master couldn't stand it anymore, and said sharply: "Bold and presumptuous! How dare you despise Mo Xianzun so much!"

"It's just a defeated general, I dared to come here while I was entangled with the beast," Zhang Kuang sneered, "If you have the ability, you loosen the spirit locks and go out to fight in a dignified manner!"

Zhang Kuang's wound has not recovered at all, and blood is still oozing, several bloodstains are drawn on his thin white wrist by the black stone, and the blood on the black clothes has dried and dried, and it is unknown how many layers have been stained.

The situation was so bad, but she still persisted stubbornly, not admitting defeat at all, not giving in at all, trying to refute everyone.

There was endless quarreling on the high platform, and the three stood at the exit of the passage, not yet on the edge of the water prison, watching the scene in front of them from a distance.

Jun Yuehou sighed: "As you can see. We interrogated for two days and two nights, but Zhang Kuang still refused to let go. In desperation, we had no choice but to make a bad move."

... What a bad move, what a bad move?

Xia Zhitao was a little panicked, always feeling that they were going to threaten Zhang Kuang with herself, and was about to pretend to be dizzy and hit the wall to show her determination, but Jun Yuehou dismissed her idea.

"We brought Mr. Qin Lin and asked him to create a white crane formation. Those who enter the illusion must keep their minds clear and not be affected by the illusion."

Jun Yuehou said: "So, we looked for you."

.

Xia Zhitao did not expect that the "brilliant deed" of her three-minute Nanke Yao phantom array would be remembered by people.So whenever Yashan needed a "person not controlled by the phantom array", the first thing that came to mind was himself.

Xia Zhitao secretly rejoiced that she was the one who came, if it were someone else, the consequences would be disastrous.

With the consent of Empress Xia Zhitao, Jun Yuehou led her over, and Zhang Kuang, who had just said one sentence and uttered nonsense in a hoarse voice, suddenly froze.

She stopped yelling at the top of her voice, Wu Mo's eyes looked at the other party, her thin white fingers clasped the stone cuffs tightly, and bitterness gushed out of her throat.

"..."

Zhang Kuang's lips trembled, he didn't say anything, he whispered in his heart, in a hoarse voice: "Zhitao. '

No one heard it except herself.

Outside the restriction surrounded by weak water, there were many people standing here and there scattered.Jun Yuehou led Xia Zhitao and walked over. Qin Lin who was sitting on the stone saw them, stood up slowly, and said expressionlessly, "Yes, she is the one I am looking for."

In the fire at Baihetang, Qin Lin was the only surviving direct bloodline. He has been protected by Yashan. It has been a long time since he was seen. He seems to have grown taller, but his temper has not changed.

"The illusion has been created, so do whatever you like," Qin Linyan said, "Just let her walk in."

Jun Yuehou sighed: "Is there really no other way?"

"The White Crane Illusion is very dangerous, not to mention that it is the devil of the leader of the Demon Cult," Qin Lin murmured, "This person named Xia Zhitao must be there, and the rest of you cannot enter."

Xia Zhitao was a little surprised. Judging from Qin Lin's tone, it seemed that he appointed her to enter the illusion...

Is it an unintentional move, or something else?

Jun Yuehou stepped forward and pressed some mechanism, several stones floated out of the weak water, forming a road leading to the round platform.

"Zhang Kuang's spiritual veins were destroyed, and the spirit locks imprisoned the circulation of the spiritual energy. She can't hurt you," Jun Yuehou said solemnly, "but you should be careful in everything, and don't try to be brave."

Xia Zhitao absentmindedly said "um", she stepped on the stone bricks and walked slowly towards the round platform.

Zhang Kuang struggled to stand up, the chains on her wrists jingled, her eyes were red, covered with a thin layer of mist, her voice was thin and weak, trembling all the time: "Zhitao."

As soon as Xia Zhitao stood firmly on the stone platform, Zhang Kuang rushed over. She clasped Xia Zhitao's five fingers, and gently brushed her cheek with her lips.

"...Leave me alone."

Amid the horrified shouts of the crowd, Zhang Kuang gently closed her eyelids, her forehead was extremely hot, and her breathing was difficult. After these days of torture, it was already at the end of her strength.

Her body fell down uncontrollably, like a butterfly wet by rain, stumbling down and falling into Xia Zhitao's arms.

Zhang Kuang lay unconscious on her shoulders, her long eyelashes were trembling slightly, the tip of her nose was resting on her neck, and her breath passed over her skin softly, in a slightly selfish, hug-like posture.
