The top and bottom of the teacher's gate are all my vests

What's wrong with running back? "

Cheng Li took off his mask and said, "Master is back too."

Yue Huaige said: "I'm different from you, I can come back to swim in muddy water, but you can't."

Cheng Li leaned forward, looked at Yue Huaige and said, "Why not?"

The distance was too close, and Yue Huaige could even see his eyelashes clearly. A sense of oppression arose spontaneously, which made him speechless for a moment.

Cheng Li smiled: "Master, is he feeling sorry for me? Don't want me to take risks?"

Yue Huaige: "It's good if you know." Just as he finished speaking, he saw Cheng Li raise his hand, pinch his earlobe with his calloused fingertips, and gently stroked, "Master's earlobe, why is it so Like red?"

It's okay not to ask, but when he asked Yue Huaige, his ears felt hotter, and he turned his face slightly and said, "Don't mess around."

Only then did Cheng Li let go of his hand, and sat down against a rotten pillar.

An hour later, Sushui finally woke up slowly. He coughed violently for a while.A sword directly pierced his lungs, I am afraid that the root cause of the disease will remain in the future, coughing is inevitable.

After his cough gradually stopped, he turned his head to look for Yanming who was lying beside him. The moment he saw Yanming, Duanshui's heart tightened suddenly, and he raised his hand tremblingly, approaching him bit by bit , and then put his hand under Yanming's nose.

At that moment, Yue Huaige saw that the last gleam in his eyes disappeared.

The ruined temple was eerily quiet. After a long while, Duan Shui took his hand away, sat up straight with his back, closed his eyes, and silently recited the mantra of rebirth—I hope to see you in the next life, you are not a devil, and I am not a monk.You no longer carry mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and I no longer take it as my responsibility to live in the world.

Yue Huaige got up quietly, and went outside the temple with Cheng Li.

He and Cheng Li stood facing each other, each leaning against a big tree behind them.

After an unknown amount of time, Cheng Li suddenly said: "Master, if one day I die, can you recite the mantra for me once?"

Yue Huaige really didn't think about this question, he said: "It's very good, why do you ask this?"

Cheng Li looked at the jungle in the distance, and said: "Actually, what I wanted to ask at the beginning was, if one day I was in the same situation as Yanming, would Master..." Will he stand in front of me?Or will he kill me with the Mu Xi sword?

"Master!" Cheng Li said in a brisk tone, "If one day I die, Master will cremate me. How about scattering the ashes in the bamboo forest in Heartless Valley?"

"Don't always die," Yue Huaige said: "You are young, what is on your mind all day long."

Cheng Li had no choice but to stop talking and concentrate on looking at the distant scenery.

Yue Huaige said it easily, but his heart was already in chaos.When he first passed through the book, he wished that Tianzimo would die quickly so that he would not be a threat.But now, if Cheng Li died, he would be sad.

Not long after the water was cut off, he came out of the ruined temple, still in the white robes, with a straight back, soft brows, but only broken eyes.

He came in front of the two of them, thanked them, and was about to leave with Yanming who had been put into the Qiankun bag.

Yue Huaige hesitated for a long time before asking: "What are your plans for the future, senior?"

There was no hesitation in the voice of the broken water: "Go to hell and find him."

Yue Huaige couldn't get involved in their affairs, so they just bid farewell to Duan Shui, said how much they valued each other, and then left.

When Yue Huaige and Cheng Li caught up with Ji Huairen, Ji Huairen turned his eyebrows coldly: "You master and apprentice, one or two, why did you put the water for so long? You can't let Huaiyan treat you!"

Yue Huaige coughed in embarrassment, hooked Ji Huairen's shoulder and said, "Brother, don't be like this, crow's feet have appeared, we just walked around to see the beautiful scenery..."

Unfeeling Valley, one month later.

It took Yue Huaige a whole month to gradually get rid of the matter of Duan Shui and Yan Ming from his mind.

This month, he lived in a trance, first buried Cheng Ying, then took out pen and ink, and went through all the relationships, hoping to find the murderer who killed Cheng Ying, after all, this person came for himself.

But no matter how much he guessed, it was always guesswork, and there were no clues to check. Yue Huaige finally fell into a stalemate, so he had to be careful and took Cheng Qian by his side every day.

But just a month later, this peaceful life ended - because of Ji Huairen's death.

Like a pot of cold water being poured into a pan of hot oil, the entire Valley of Unrequited Love, and even most of the cultivation world shook.

30、Chapter30

The incident happened suddenly. In the early morning of this day, disciple Ergu first discovered that Ji Huairen had died in the room.

When Yue Huaige heard the news, he thought that Ji Huairen was joking with him, but when he arrived at Ergu, he really saw Ji Huairen's body covered in blood.

He just sat quietly on the pear wood chair, his eyes were closed, and there was a half-polished saber in front of him, looking serene and quiet.

However, this person will never wake up again.

Yue Huaige froze on the spot, feeling cold all over his body—the fatal wound was on his chest, and there was no trace of a fight in the room—it was an acquaintance who committed the crime.

The murderer was a person Ji Huairen was very familiar with, in front of that person, Ji Huairen would not even have any precautions.

Other than that, this method of death is exactly the same as that of Cheng Ying, who was pierced through the heart by a sword.

Yue Huaige curled up his right hand hidden in his sleeve, he didn't even know how to describe the feeling now.

When Lu Huaizhang and others saw Ji Huairen, they naturally thought of acquaintances committing crimes and serial murders.But the one who killed Ji Huairen so easily, with good martial arts, and made Ji Huairen so relaxed, the murderer was most likely among the six of them.

The six of them stared at each other, which meant that they had to let go of the friendship they once had as teachers and become suspicious, jealous, and even slaughtered each other.

With a stab, Long Huaize drew his sword first, pointed at Yue Huaige, and said angrily: "I have suspected you for a long time, tell me, where did you go last night!?"

As soon as Yue Huaige spoke, he realized that his throat was hoarse: "I'm sleeping."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly blamed himself. Yesterday, Ji Huairen asked him to practice swords at night, and to fight a few moves, but because he was too lazy to bother, he didn't go at all, and went to bed early.If he goes, will it be another result?

Long Huaize obviously refused to let him go, and asked, "Who can prove it?"

Yue Huai Song: "No one can prove it."

"Well, no one can prove it," Long Huaize said, "You haven't cleared up the suspicion of Cheng Ying's death. You could have blamed Yanming at that time. What about senior brother? Who are you going to blame!?"

Song Huairou raised his hand to hold Long Huaize's wrist, told him to put down his sword, and said, "Calm down first."

"In this matter, the few of us are indeed the most suspicious, especially me." Lu Huaizhang said: "We all know Huairen's sword skills, even if you want to kill him with a frontal sword without defense. And let him have no power to parry, the swordsmanship must not be too bad."

Lu Huaizhang looked at them one by one, and then said: "Among us, Huaichuan focuses on spells, and Huaiyan focuses on medicine. It will not be easy for them to succeed in sneak attack unless..."

Long Huaize: "Unless they used spells or poisons on the second senior brother. And spells and poisons, especially poisons, are easy to leave traces after use. We only need to find out if there are traces, and we can confirm their suspicion."

"That's right," Lu Huaizhang said, "But we can't do the inspection, we need to find an outsider."

Several people discussed it, and finally found a master who had been practicing in the back mountain and had not been born for many years.

During the waiting process, the six of them stayed in the room and watched each other.At the same time, they are constantly looking for suspicious points, hoping to find the murderer as soon as possible.

After being quiet for a while, Long Huaize suddenly asked, "Where is Cheng Li?"

Yue Huaige replied indifferently: "Stay outside the door, and haven't moved."

Long Huaize said: "Brother, Cheng Li's martial arts has advanced by leaps and bounds. It can be said that no one can compete with him among the disciples of Heartless Valley. And Cheng Ying's case, he is also suspected."

Without hesitation, Lu Huaizhang immediately asked Yue Huaige to bring Cheng Li in, and put him under everyone's surveillance.

When Cheng Li came in, Yue Huaige was standing blankly leaning on the screen, his eyes fixed on Ji Huairen.

This person is a bit domineering and unreasonable, but he can always stand in front of him when he is in danger. Although he doesn't like to laugh or be humorous, when Yue Huaige stands with his senior brother, he really feels a sense of security. .

In front of Ji Huairen, he is a weak junior who can't take care of himself. He can read the script forever without worrying about anything, just like in front of his senior brother Lu Huaizhang.

Yue Huaige thought about it and went to look at Lu Huaizhang again, only to see that his temples had turned white, and the skin on his face had crept into wrinkles at some point, and he couldn't help feeling sad for a while.

He leaned against the screen, closed his eyes tiredly, and when he opened them again, he saw Cheng Li had come to him, looking at him with soft eyes, as if comforting him silently.

Yue Huaige turned sideways slightly, but did not speak.

The uncle soon arrived, he checked carefully, and finally confirmed that there were no traces of spells or drugs used on Ji Huairen's body. In this way, the suspicion of Yan Huaichuan and Yao Huaiyan was cleared.

In addition, the uncle also carefully examined the sword wound and deduced that he was killed when he was close to Zi in the first half of the night.He took their sabers away and compared them one by one, and finally found that the size of the wound was exactly the same as that of the Mu Xi sword.

Of course, this does not mean that the murderer is Yue Huaige, because there is a high probability that the murderer will not use his own sword to attack, and he can also find other sabers.

In order to ensure that the investigation process will not be affected, Lu Huaizhang decided to let his teacher
