[Rebirth] Madam, stop pretending

Chapter 20

Su Yu's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked, "What did you say? The path on the mountain ahead?"

The young man nodded, "I came from the village in front, and I took the path because of the heavy rain. At the old mountain temple, many people died. The boss sent me to report to the officials."

Su Yu's face turned pale, he got on his horse, glanced at Ling Mohan, "Master..."

Ling Mohan grabbed his horse's rein with one hand, "Wait a minute."

Bai Luofeng and Mu Weiyuan advanced to the city, but when they didn't see Ling Mohan and Su Yu at this time, they came back to look for them.

"My lord, what's the matter?" Bai Luofeng glanced over and saw the bronze medal in the young man's hand, "...Wu family?"

"There's a dead person ahead." Ling Mohan said succinctly, "You and Huaiyuan are waiting in the city, let's go and have a look."

With that said, Ling Mohan let go of the rein in his hand, Su Yu got the consent, raised his whip and ran like a gust of wind.

Ling Mohan frowned, got on his horse and followed closely behind.

Two days ago, on the Vermillion Bird Peak of the Demon Sect, Ling Mohan went down the mountain the next day after receiving the news that another altar was under siege.This time, Huaishui, who had been running outside all day and was not in the main altar, was left on the top of Suzaku Peak. Hallmaster Qingying and Hallmaster Chixue went down the mountain with Ling Mohan, taking Su Yu with him.

As for why he was taken, Su Yu himself did not understand.

Several people rushed on the road overnight, and decided to take a rest when they arrived at Wangyue Town, so the scene just happened.

The rain was still falling, blocking the scattered blood.When Zhen Xing arrived in front of the old temple, the situation in front of him was exactly as the young man had described. At a glance, there were corpses strewn all over the field.

Su Yu hurriedly jumped off the horse, walked into the group of corpses, squatted down and looked over one by one, and saw several familiar faces.This is indeed the Wu family who besieged the Demon Sect before.

Su Yu's hands and feet felt cold, and as he looked over one by one, his heart beat faster and faster.After carefully identifying more than 20 corpses, he stood up straight and let out a long sigh of relief.

There is no body of his eldest brother.

At least Wu Daoming is still alive.

Ling Mohan also jumped off the horse and checked them one by one, looking more carefully than Su Yu, with a gloomy expression.

"Teach... Young Master." Su Yu walked back to Ling Mohan.

Ling Mohan was rummaging through the wounds on a corpse, he responded, and asked Su Yu, "What do you see?"

"...I didn't see anything..."

Ling Mohan looked at the next corpse, and said indifferently, "The sword has not been drawn, and they have no chance to resist." He looked at Su Yu, "Because they won the laughing bonus."

He only gave half of Xiao Huahong's antidote, which could save his life, but his martial arts could not be recovered.The other half of the antidote will be delivered when each sect returns to their own sect, but they can't get it anymore.

"One move is fatal." Ling Mohan said again, "Do you know what kind of sword move this is?"

Su Yu couldn't answer, Ling Mohan naturally received, "Chasing Soul No. 13 style."

He looked at Su Yu, "People were killed by the Demon Cult."

Su Yu looked at him sharply, his voice was a little dry, "The killing order from the leader?"

Ling Mohan didn't speak, Su Yu said again, "...No. You've never been this kind of person..."

"Why didn't I kill them?" Ling Mohan said indifferently, "Bai Daomeng besieged Suzaku Peak, killed the leader Wu's family, and killed the chickens to make an example to the monkeys. Why not do it."

"...No." Su Yu shook his head, "If that's the case, since the leader promised to give them the antidote, he won't issue another hunting order."

"You are very sure." Ling Mohan said, the expression on his face softened, "I did not give an order."

"..." Su Yu let out a long breath of relief.

After all, the Wu family is his own family, and it is impossible for him to allow Ling Mohan to chase and kill the Wu family without feeling anything.Let's just say that now, the Wu family members were killed because they won the laughing bonus and had no power to resist. Su Yu was already feeling very uncomfortable.

"However, not everyone thinks like you do." Ling Mohan stood up and said, "What is the Devil's Cult in the eyes of Taoist Bai?"

"..." Su Yu knew it without thinking.

In the eyes of most white Taoists, the Devil's Cult definitely deserves the word "magic".

The Wu family's team failed to besiege the Demon Cult, and were killed after laughing at the bonus. Most of the people's first reaction was to kill the Demon Cult for revenge.

He let out an ah, and vaguely understood that the reason Ling Mohan said just now was probably the reason why Bai Dao believed that the Demon Sect killed people.

"The wound on the corpse was really caused by No. 13 Soul Chaser?"

"It's absolutely true." Ling Mohan's eyes were cold, "And, he did it very cleverly. It's not what ordinary disciples did."

"...Is that really a member of the Demon Cult?"

"It's not sure yet." Ling Mohan said.

Su Yu looked around, "Not everyone is here, Wu Youyu and Wu Daoming are not here." He said, "If we can find them..." "I just don't know if they were captured by the attackers or escaped." ..."

"Wu Youyu has profound skills, and after taking half of the antidote, he may have the ability to protect himself." Ling Mohan said indifferently, "Wu Daoming didn't get a laughing bonus."

"……he……"

"Xiaohuahong is in powder form. At that time, Huaishui pretended to be Nangongbei, and was in the Baidaomeng camp to spill Xiaohuahong. Wu Daoming was with you on the court at that time, so he should not be affected."

Su Yu felt a little rejoicing in his heart.

"If you are besieged here, the only one who can escape..." Su Yu's eyes slowly moved to the steep slope on the other side of the path.

In the wild forest in the mountains, although the slope is steep, it is not a cliff.If lightness kung fu is better, it is not impossible to jump down safely.

Thinking of this, Su Yu took a few steps forward.

"Be careful." Ling Mohan said.

Su Yu didn't listen carefully, but responded subconsciously.He squinted his eyes, and seemed to see a small piece of light blue cloth on a certain branch below.The whole mountain is covered with dark green, and this piece of blue cloth is not very conspicuous. In order to see it more clearly, Su Yu took two steps forward and leaned out.

He was stepping on rocks, which were very slippery after the heavy rain. Su Yu leaned forward again, his center of gravity was unstable, his feet slipped, and he fell down with an ah.

Ling Mohan was standing a few steps behind, still checking the wounds on the corpse one by one.He reminded Su Yu just now, thinking that the other party would be careful, he heard a sound without seeing him, turned around and Su Yu had already fallen.

Su Yu fell headfirst and reached out to reach for the branch beside him, but he didn't reach the branch, but saw Ling Mohan also jumped down from the top and grabbed his wrist.

"..."

Ling Mohan pulled him into his arms with all his strength, and stabilized his body. Although his feet were unstable when he landed, he did not fall to the ground.

"I said be careful." Ling Mohan frowned.

"..." Su Yu was wronged and didn't speak.He looked at the height, "...Can I still go up?"

"Yes." Ling Mohan nodded, glanced around, and said, "Are you coming down to find someone?"

"There seems to be a large...cloth from Wu Daoming's body hanging on the branch." Su Yu said, looking around again, hoping to find other traces here.

It was also considered his luck, and after walking a few steps forward, he saw something again.

Half a piece of white jade was buried in the soil, Su Yu stepped forward to pick it up, and after a glance, he knew it was the piece that his elder brother often matched.I can't help but mention it again.

"Go to the forest." Ling Mohan glanced at the terrain.This is a valley. If you want to hide from people, you'd better go into the woods in front.

Su Yu immediately walked towards the woods he pointed to. Ling Mohan frowned and walked two steps quickly, half a step ahead of Su Yu, protecting him behind.

The woods in the forest are dense, and the rain outside is light, so there are basically only dripping raindrops inside.

The light was dim, and a wolf howled faintly in the distance.

The howling was different from usual, it seemed to be a bit painful.

Su Yu's expression changed slightly, Ling Mohan knew what he was thinking and speeded up.

When we got closer, we saw that one man and one wolf were fighting.

Most of the wolves moved in groups, and on the ground next to them lay the corpses of several other wolves.Although the only remaining one was covered with bruises, it became more and more fierce.

The other person didn't look much better either, with his back leaning against a big tree, his hair disheveled and out of breath, the sword in his hand had lost its martial art skills, obviously it was also at the end of its strength.

Both sides are fighting desperately.

This is what Su Yu and Ling Mohan saw.

The cornered man who was forced was none other than Wu Daoming.

Su Yu drew his sword and stepped forward almost without thinking, but someone was faster than him.

Ling Mohan's figure was as swift as lightning, he drew out his sword, pierced into the wolf's head, and retracted the sword.

From when he drew the sword to when he drew it back, Su Yu didn't see clearly at all.

Seeing that the last wolf was killed, Wu Daoming slowly slid to the ground as if he lost his strength.He looked up, and wanted to say something, but when he saw Ling Mohan's face, he was startled, "Are you, the leader of the Demon Sect?"

"it's me."

Su Yu also ran over at this time, Wu Daoming saw his expression change again, and wanted to lift the sword, but he was exhausted.

"How are you?" Su Yu was not in the mood to care about his expression at all, and walked around Wu Daoming, dragging him to check the wound on his body.Wu Daoming pushed Su Yu's hand away, and said indifferently, "You don't need to care."

Su Yu ignored him and tore off his clothes to bandage him up. Wu Daoming wanted to hide but couldn't. His eyebrows were full of impatience and he was very uncooperative.

"... Great... Great Xia Wu!" Su Yu said helplessly, "Don't make things difficult for yourself..."

"There is something hidden about Wu Daohua's matter." Ling Mohan stood beside him, and finally spoke when he saw this, "You shouldn't blame him."

Wu Daoming sneered, "No matter what happened, I only blame you! Daohua is in your hands..." He said, his expression darkened, "Even if it's because of..."

"I cannot escape the blame." Ling Mohan said.

Su Yu's heart moved, he turned his head and saw that although Ling Mohan's face was still calm, he was also somewhat sad.

The three fell silent for a while.

"Why did you come here?" After a while, Wu Daoming asked, "It seems that you are not here to kill me."

"You were attacked last night?"

"Yesterday evening." Wu Daoming said, "We took a shortcut to Wangyue City...how are the rest of the Wu family?"

"They're all dead." Ling Mohan said.

Wu Daoming was shocked and looked up at him.

But I heard Ling Mohan continue, "People are not killed by the devil's religion."

"They claim to be members of the Scarlet Blood Church of the Demon Sect."

"I never lie." Ling Mohan said.

Wu Daoming didn't answer, he stood up with the support of the tree, "The smell of blood is strong here, it is easy to attract other beasts, we can talk elsewhere."
