The protagonist of the book is blackening

"You did it on purpose." Su Che slowly withdrew his sword, and looked at Chu Jinran firmly: "You did it on purpose."

Chu Jinran said calmly, "How should I say it?"

"I remember that we signed a contract." Su Che touched his neck lightly, and he lowered his eyes slightly: "I remember the provisions of the contract very clearly." He raised his eyes again, and looked straight at Chu Jinran: "The contract says that if I hurt you before my strength surpasses yours, I will be punished."

He said softly: "What is the punishment? Getting hurt? Or death?"

"..." This was not Chu Jinran's original goal.But the young man thought so, so he followed suit: "I'm glad you're not that stupid yet."

"..." Su Che couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.It's just that his disappointment with him is getting bigger and bigger, so much that now he wants to ignore his reason and not restrain his hatred: "I'm very glad." He said slowly, still looking at Chu Jinran: "It's so early I can see you clearly."

"..." Chu Jinran's heart tightened slightly, but there was still no sign of being moved on the surface.

fair enough.Everything is going according to plan, perfect, isn't it?

***

Not long after that day, Su Che and Chu Jinran walked back and waited until Yuyang City's rescuers came.

Leaving aside how Chu Jinran endured the pain, they were diagnosed on the day they went back. They were sure that there was nothing serious and they only needed to rest more, so others were relieved.Although the city lord and all the knights were rejoicing, since they were all recovering from their injuries, it was not good to bother them.

During the recovery period, the Xuanbing Sword must be handed back up.This sword was borrowed, so they naturally had to return it.

It's just that when exchanging swords, the second senior sister looked at the Yumian sword used by the third senior brother, and said a little sadly: "At that time, the third senior brother was not very happy when he took the sword, saying that this Yumian sword was originally a sword used by a woman's family. An upright and upright man, what does this sword look like?" The second senior sister didn't know what to think of, and suddenly smiled: "Later, the senior brother persuaded him, saying that the third senior brother is a real man, too full of yang, and now he has This Yumian sword is just right to neutralize it." As soon as the words fell, she couldn't help crying.

Everyone was speechless for a while, they all looked at the second senior sister sadly, the atmosphere was a little sad.

After returning the sword, Chu Jinran held his breath, and did not go to the city lord to ask for the way to the upper realm until he recovered from his injuries.

Without further ado, the city lord pointed to the painting hanging in his hall and said, "Do you know where the lake in this painting is?"

Chu Jinran looked at the painting: in the middle of the canvas was a calm lake surrounded by lush tall trees.With a slight movement in his heart, he already guessed most of it: "Could it be that the road to the upper realm is there?"

"That's right." The city lord nodded and said, "The lake is in the middle of the forest near Yuyang City. When you get there, you only need to drop your own blood into the lake. However," the city lord paused, perhaps because Chu Jinran and the others solved the devil's problem so quickly, and he kindly reminded him: "There are many ferocious beasts in that forest, and there are dangers everywhere. Although there are occasional hunters who go into the depths of the forest to hunt, many of them never return. There were very few of them, and even if they came back, most of those people were dressed in rags, were seriously injured, and looked terrified, no matter what, they were unwilling to enter the depths of the forest again."

"I will be careful." Chu Jinran said, "But why did you drop the blood into the lake?" He didn't ask: what is in the lake, why did you drop the blood into the lake, it was just to avoid arousing the suspicion of the city lord Moreover, he also had some guesses in his mind: the lake might be guarded by something, judging by the partition in the hall of the city lord, the one guarding the lake might be a dragon.

Sure enough, the city lord explained: "It is said that there is a dragon guarding the lake, sleeping every day, and only the blood of those who want to ascend to the sky can wake him up. But..." The city lord hesitated a little: "It is said that the dragon did not know what to do. Big mistake, I was beaten back to cultivation and turned into a dragon, which seems to have been cultivated by the dragon. You don’t have to be afraid of it,” the city lord said with a smile: “The dragon must be locked, otherwise how could it be Will you be willing to guard that small lake?"

"..." Hearing what the city lord said, Chu Jinran guessed: It should be very irritable.After all, it changed from a dragon to a jiao again, and the resentment in its heart can be seen from this.It's just that I don't know what the method of going to heaven is. If 1 wants to let that dragon take him to heaven, that would be bad.

Although Suche is the protagonist, this world should not let him have trouble.

Chu Jinran was not sure.He suddenly thought of Su Che who was almost skinned and dismantled in the original novel... death is certain, and if he is to suffer more, it may not be impossible.

But anyway, he had to try.

***

Early the next morning, Chu Jinran and Su Che set off together after packing up their luggage.After bidding farewell to the tearful Second Senior Sister and other Huolian teacher brothers, the two of them got into the carriage and went straight to the forest outside the city.

In the car, Chu Jinran rested with his eyes closed.Sucher lifted the curtain of the car and looked out.

There was silence.There was nothing but the rattling of the wheels and the occasional yelling of the groom.

"You should know." After some time, Chu Jinran, who closed his eyes and rested, said, "This time, it's very dangerous, even the middle of the forest is dangerous." He opened his eyes and looked at it half-faced. Sucher seemed serious and said, "When necessary, I will use you as a shield."

"...En." Su Che replied, apparently without any complaints.He thought in his heart: Maybe this is Chu Jinran's real face.However, he couldn't feel any resentment in his heart, because he had already recognized... Since the day in the forest, he seemed to have recognized him thoroughly, and completely cut off any shameful thoughts about that person, leaving no hatred.

The other half who liked him seemed to have been driven to death by him, and now he was very satisfied with Sucher.

If this continues, the final outcome is that he kills him and ends the hatred.

Su Che was thinking in a daze, and suddenly he didn't know what he should do after killing him. Life was cruel, and he didn't have anyone he liked, and maybe there would be no one in the future.The only emotion he had was spent on his mother and that person, but they all cruelly exhausted his emotion.

If he didn't know what to do after killing him.

Then die.

Clean and clean, die without worries.
