cloudy moon

Chapter 1

"My son! Who on earth is so cruel and killed your life?" The largest and busiest Hongsheng Inn in the town was surrounded by troublemakers.The town is not big, but if there is any disturbance, it will become a household name, not to mention any sensational murders.Two old men in fine clothes, beside a cold corpse, wept bitterly, which made people feel very sad.This situation and the situation really corresponded to the sentence - white-haired people send black-haired people.

"It's so pitiful!" The crowd whispered, except for the curiosity about the murderer, most of them sympathized with the two elders.On weekdays, if any villagers have any difficulties, this family is always the first to help.It's just... Hey, good people don't get rewarded!

"Look, Young Master Gao doesn't have any scars on his body, don't you think it's strange?"

"Could it be poisoning?" Someone speculated.

"I did an autopsy just now, but I found nothing. Do you think it is caused by ghosts?" For a while, there were many discussions, and the voices even overwhelmed the crying of the old man.

"Wang Fu! Didn't the young master come to settle the accounts with you yesterday? Why did you die in the wilderness?" The old housekeeper stopped him when he saw the shopkeeper of the inn.

"What? What's wrong with the young master!" The shopkeeper was very surprised when he saw the master's body.

"In the beginning, we were indeed counting accounts, but for some reason, the young master said something was wrong and ran out. I didn't stop it."

"Hua Yue! It must be her! She came to the restaurant last night and was drunk, and then rushed out. The young master was worried that she was alone, so he chased her together. As a result, he found his daughter by the river this morning. Corpse. If it’s not her, who else could it be?” A servant infers that, he has long seen that Huayue is weird, but the young master is so infatuated with her that he doesn’t listen to other people’s persuasion. It's fine to almost ruin the family business, but now, you even lost your life for no reason, why bother!

flower moon?Zhuo Yun looked carefully at the servant's expression, it didn't seem like he was telling a lie.The surface is calm, but the heart is already turbulent, full of disappointment, anger and... can't bear to Huayue.She...why would she do that?

Without saying a word, Zhuo Yun walked out of the inn with a flash.He was going to fulfill the threat he had made to her—if one day, she hurt the lives of innocent mortals, he would kill her with his own hands.

In the deep mountains and old forests, on the root of an ancient tangled tree, lay a beautiful woman in orchid clothes. On her forehead, which was originally clean, blood gushed down, and the woman fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.

"Axiu!" Seeing her friend in such a miserable state, Huayue couldn't help feeling angry. She scolded in a cold voice: "Mountain demon, you are really deceiving people too much!" The height of the demon is one foot, and this mountain demon has the ability to escape from Zhuo Yun's magic trick.As soon as the words fell, Huayue's pupils gradually turned a strange red, and she cast a spell and waved her water sleeves, hitting the mountain monster's vitals.All of a sudden, the fallen leaves in the forest were flying, and the birds were also frightened by the movement and flew away from the forest.

If it is only about cultivation, the mountain demon who cultivated in the wild is naturally inferior to Huayue, the three-tailed Qingqiu spirit fox.However, the Linghu family is not good at force, so when the real fight started, Huayue and the mountain demon ended up in a tie.

If it continues like this, the situation will be very unfavorable to her, and she must be resolved quickly!Huayue thought to herself.The movements of the hands are not muddled in the slightest.She was chanting the formula in her heart and was about to perform the illusion, but found that her blood was stagnant. What's going on?Why is her illusion not working anymore?There was a little panic in the bright red eyes.

"Do you think I'm stupid enough to give you a chance to use illusion?" The mountain demon laughed, and Huayue's panic was just as he expected.He had already dripped the unlucky bastard's blood on Huayue's palm when Huayue was in a deep sleep due to drunkenness. This move would not only blame her for the murder, but also make her and Zhuo Yun turn against each other. It can seal her best illusion in one fell swoop.Who told this woman not to accept his courtship, and even joined forces with that stinky Taoist priest Zhuo Yun to kill him.What he can't get, will never let others get it.There was a bit of sinisterness in the mountain demon's laughter.

"What did you do?" Huayue was extremely intelligent, and immediately realized that it was the mountain demon who was behind it.Suddenly, her ears quivered slightly, and she sensed that someone was coming several miles away.This breath is very familiar, it's that idiot Zhuo Yun!Huayue was ecstatic in her heart, he came, and the whole thing was much easier to handle.

"Where are you going?" Huayue sneered seeing the mountain demon eager to get away.Now that Zhuo Yun is here, she can safely entrust Axiu to his care, and then concentrate on dealing with him. Even if she can't use the illusion all over her body, she will be able to bring this abominable mountain demon to justice without worrying about the future. .

Huayue was about to catch up, but was blocked by an invisible mana. She never expected that Zhuo Yun would attack her!She yelled in dissatisfaction, "Zhuo Yun, what are you doing?" What kind of nerve is wrong with him?Huayue just felt baffled.

The man dressed as a Taoist stood still, and asked bitterly: "Hua Yue, why did you kill Mr. Gao?" He was so stupid that he really thought she would be a kind demon.

"What? Mr. Gao is dead? What happened?" Huayue's tone was unspeakably surprised. She only revealed the identity of Linghu to him last night. Why is she dead now?This is too strange!

"Then I should ask you!" Zhuo Yun was aggressive, and out of the corner of his eye, he spotted Axiu who was lying unconscious under the tree, and his tone was even more painful, "Hua Yue, you didn't even let Axiu go. "Just because you want to get Liu Zigu's love, so you don't even let your savior go?

Huayue was wronged by him for no reason, and she also got angry, "What the hell are you talking about? You say that I killed Mr. Gao, and then that I killed Axiu. Do you have any evidence?" Does it mean that whenever someone is injured or dies, it must be blamed on her head?Just because she is a fox demon?

So far, do you still want to quibble?Zhuo Yun was really disappointed with the woman in front of him, "Evidence? The waiter told me that Mr. Gao was with you last night. What more evidence do you need?" He pointed to the injured woman, "Then let me ask you, Axiu Why is the girl lying here?"

Suddenly, Huayue calmed down.There are priorities, it is too time-consuming to justify these things now, the most important thing is to catch the mountain demon who escaped just now, she has an intuition that the murder of Mr. Gao must have something to do with it.Therefore, Huayue pointed to the direction where the mountain demon disappeared, and said to Zhuo Yun, "I don't know why Mr. Gao died. All I know is that the mountain demon has already escaped!"

Zhuo Yun smiled wryly, could she even come up with such an absurd reason? "The mountain demon has been taken away by my magical weapon, how could it come out to harm people again? As for you, I will know if you have killed someone." He put two fingers together, pointed at her, and then a white light flew towards the flower. The moon hangs down on the hand beside him.

Try it, she is not afraid of the shadow slanting!Huayue raised her hand confidently, only to find that the smoke that should have been white appeared on her palm, but now it turned a terrifying red color. Why is this happening?She has never been stained with any blood, has she? "Why...how did this happen?" The trace of redness in the palm was like a creepy monster, Huayue backed away unconsciously in fright, and she kept shaking her head.Could it be that she really killed Mr. Gao?Obviously, she was unwilling to accept such a result.

Zhuo Yun shook his head in disappointment, he believed in the wrong person after all. "You're still arguing, as I said, as long as you kill someone, I will never let you go. Today, I will accept you!"

Relying on the beast's instinct to avoid danger, Huayue instinctively avoided the magic weapon in Zhuo Yun's hand.However, when she looked into Zhuo Yun's eyes full of killing intent, her heart seemed to sink to a bottomless place.The vague truth gradually surfaced, but she was too disheartened to defend her innocence.

"You never believed me. In your heart, I, Huayue, am a cunning, changeable, blood-stained fox demon." Hidden under her sad accusation was a heart dripping with blood.His distrust delayed her one step ahead of the spell to subdue the demon.

Being stung by her gaze, Zhuo Yun's expression returned to calm afterward, he could no longer be played with by her in the applause, "It's because of your stubbornness!"

Huayue was chilled, and passively no longer avoided Zhuo Yun's offensive.Undefended, she walked towards him step by step, "Okay, since you don't believe me, then please do it." As she said, Huayue silently closed her bewitching red pupils. In my hands, that's not too bad.

Looking at the woman in front of him who repeatedly betrayed all his trust, Zhuo Yun found sadly that he couldn't do it.Zhuo Yunduo hoped that she did not do all of this, but the evidence is so conclusive...

Huayue waited for quite a while, but didn't feel the pain she deserved. She opened her eyes suspiciously, and found that Zhuo Yun's palm was stopped in mid-air, and she felt a little joy in her heart, but when she saw the hesitation in his eyes, Joy was soon replaced by anger. "What? You did it!" Are you reluctant now?But his distrust has already sentenced her to death, right? "Do it! Do it!"

Huayue's voice forced Zhuo Yun's rationality to break through the cage. He closed his eyes, concentrated the internal force of the rising and falling demon in his palm, and struck forward with all his strength.

not good!Someone stood in front of Huayue!

Feeling the strange energy in his palm, Zhuo Yun quickly opened his eyes.The awakened Axiu rushed over at some point, and took his palm instead of Huayue.

"Axiu!" Huayue hurriedly supported Yao Axiu who was vomiting blood, she stroked her wrist in panic, and found that her pulse was getting weaker and weaker. "Axiu, don't scare me!" Huayue cried. "Zhuo Yun, I told you it's a mountain demon, why don't you believe me?"

Huayue hugged the woman who was already limp, Axiu's eyes were closed tightly, the corners of her mouth were mottled with blood, and she was so angry, "Axiu! Axiu!" It's all her fault!If she had explained all the ins and outs to Zhuo Yun clearly, instead of insisting on seeking death, Axiu would not hang her life on the line just to save her.She even fought with Axiu for Liu Zigu, but she was willing to sacrifice her life to save him?Axiu, I will definitely save you, no matter what the cost!Huayue made a silent decision in her heart.

Liu Zigu sat by the bed, shaking Axiu's thin shoulders in a panic, why did he feel that Axiu's body was gradually getting cold? "Axiu, wake up?" But the person on the bed still didn't respond, and Liu Zigu, who didn't get any response, began to seek answers from the two people behind him.They have been silent until now, so what must have happened to Axiu? "Hua Yue, what happened to Axiu?"

"Axiu, she..." Huayue hesitated to speak, she didn't know how to explain all these complicated things.

Liu Zigu was extremely anxious, "Hua Yue, you really said it!"

Huayue took a deep breath and decided to start from the beginning, "Just now, I was talking with Axiu in the forest, but the mountain demon suddenly appeared and took Axiu away. Afterwards, in order to save Axiu, I and Shan It's easy to fight the monster..."

"Axiu was injured by a mountain demon?" Liu Zigu hurriedly interrupted her.

"No." Huayue shook her head, she bit her bright red lips, and her plump lower lip was so red and swollen by her raging.

Zhuo Yun felt guilty in his heart, he accepted the quarrel.Since all this happened because of him, he should be solely responsible, "Mr. Liu, if you want to blame it, you can blame me. Miss Axiu was accidentally injured by me. It's all my fault that I fell into the tricks of the mountain monster."

An angry Liu Zigu rushed in front of Zhuo Yun, grabbed his collar fiercely, the resentment in his eyes seemed to want to beat Zhuo Yun up, "You!"

"Zigu!" Huayue saw Liu Zigu's hostility, and hastily separated him from Zhuo Yun to prevent Liu Zigu from doing anything.According to Zhuo Yun's dead brain sutra, even if he was about to be beaten to death, he would not have the slightest intention of resisting.

Liu Zigu is a scholar after all, "You are a Taoist priest, how can you hurt others? Why do you want to hurt Axiu?"

"Master Liu, I..." Zhuo Yun felt even more guilty when he heard this.

"Zigu! Now is not the time to pursue these things! First save Axiu!" What two elm heads.Nowadays, human life is at stake, what's the use of rushing to investigate these things!

"What can you do, tell me quickly!" Liu Zigu yelled regardless of his appearance.

"Miss Axiu was injured by my internal force, and now her three souls are scattered. Although she is still breathing weakly, she is already a living dead." Zhuo Yun analyzed the current situation, he was actually helpless, really ashamed.

"What? Three souls scattered? A living dead? I can't let Axiu die. You must save her." Liu Zigu ordered Zhuo Yun aggressively, how much he hated himself for being powerless at the moment!

Huayue looked at Zhuo Yun, and cautiously probed: "Although... Axiu is a living dead now, there is still a glimmer of hope. I have heard that even if the three souls leave the body, they can be returned to the body in exchange for their return. A ray of life."

Zhuo Yun looked distressed, "There are related records in ancient books, but I haven't encountered any real cases until now. My fellow disciples used the same method before, but they didn't succeed. In the end, because their hopes were once again shattered, they changed their minds. more disappointed and sad."

Liu Zigu's eyes showed madness, and he said almost angrily: "I don't care what you say, I will definitely save Axiu! If you don't help, I will save it myself."

"Don't worry, we will definitely save her." Huayue said comfortingly.

Up to now, he can only take one step at a time, "Okay." Zhuo Yun nodded, and also agreed to Liu Zigu's request to save Axiu, "First of all, we need to find Miss Axiu's separated three. soul…"

The three of them went through a lot of twists and turns, and finally succeeded in collecting the three souls of Axiu within the limited time limit, and successfully penetrated into her body. However, although Axiu's breath stabilized, her body also returned to temperature. But I couldn't wake up.So, with nothing to do, Zhuo Yun Feige could only pass on the letter to his senior brother, asking for advice on the follow-up method of saving lives.

"Zhuo Yun, have you received the news? What's the result?" The sharp-eyed Huayue saw what Zhuo Yun was looking at from a distance, and ran over happily.

I saw Zhuo Yun put the note in his clothes calmly, "As a result... there is no way to do it. Brother said that her soul has been away from the body for too long, even if it returns to her body... there is no way to revive her " Zhuo Yun said very guilty.

Huayue looked deeply at the handsome man in front of her, with a hint of sweetness in her heart, "Really...is there no other way?"

Zhuo Yun's eyes dodged a little, "I've thought of many ways, but there really isn't one."

The clear and beautiful eyes flashed with reluctance and understanding, since it was God's will, why not let her feel his tenderness for a while longer, she hugged him tightly.The tone of the speech seemed to be at a loss, "That is to say, Axiu can't wake up? What about Zigu? What should we do? No... Axiu can't die, she can't die."

"Hua Yue... Maybe it's God's will. I know everyone doesn't want to see such a result. Don't be sad anymore, okay?" Zhuo Yun patted her on the back clumsily, trying to calm her emotions in time and space.

"Axiu can't die, Axiu can't die!" Huayue buried her head on Zhuo Yun's chest, her nose was filled with his masculine breath, tears streaming down her cheeks.She thought about it and stayed by his side like this.

"Hua Yue, I..." Seeing her crying more and more sadly, Zhuo Yun's hands and feet were at a loss.

"How could I... just watch Axiu die? She can't die!" Huayue hugged his hand, unconsciously tightening it.

"I know, Huayue. Don't blame yourself anymore. It's all my fault, it's my fault. Don't cry, okay?" Zhuo Yun didn't want Huayue to blame herself so much, all of this was clearly his fault .If Axiu hadn't stepped forward, I'm afraid Huayue would be a lonely soul under his palm at this moment.Miss Axiu, if you are alive in heaven, please forgive my selfishness, because I can't let Huayue... Zhuo Yun tried his best to suppress the guilt in his heart, and prayed secretly.

But this is exactly what Huayue expected, taking advantage of Zhuo Yun's distraction, the woman quickly pulled out the wrinkled note from his lapel, then quickly stepped aside, unfolded the curled note, and looked at it. .

Zhuo Yun couldn't react for a while, and then wanted to stop her in a panic, eager to get back the paper, "Hua Yue! You can't read it! Return it to me!"

Holding the note, Huayue quietly asked: "Is this the way to save Axiu?" The woman in red looked at him calmly.But it was her who was so quiet, too abnormal, which made Zhuo Yun even more flustered.

"This is not a method at all! This is to inject your hundred-year-old inner alchemy into Axiu's body! This is not saving people! It's a life for another!" Zhuo Yun's voice became louder and louder, Speaking of the back is close to shouting.

"So what if one life is exchanged for another? This is my life, you don't need to worry about it!" Huayue choked back at him, as if angry.Do you want to protect her even if you go against your conscience?Does he know that such a him makes her feel bad?

Zhuo Yun grabbed Huayue's slender shoulders and looked into her eyes affectionately, "Huayue, I don't want you to suffer any harm, do you know that?"

How could she not know?The pity in his eyes moved her.But... Huayue's thoughts are still firm and almost stubborn: "Axiu is my best friend, I must save her!" Because she is a friend, even if it is not to save her own life, she must save Ahxiu. embroidered.

After all, she and Zhuo Yun are destined to each other.
