When Lingsha woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day.Since the doors and windows were closed, only the small window farthest from the bed was open, and the light in the room did not dazzle her sleepy eyes.Half of the thin curtain in front of the bed was lowered and half raised, looking from her side, one could just see the silhouette of Ziying sitting by the window.

Ziying held a volume of books and looked out of the window with her head tilted slightly, rather than thinking, it would be better to say she was in a trance.Lingsha didn't want to disturb him, she opened her eyes and looked at it for a long time, until her eyes felt a little sore.Finally, Ziying finally came back to her senses, her eyes fell on the page in front of him again, and she sighed almost inaudibly.

"Little Ziying, why are you sighing?" This sentence slipped to the edge of her mouth, and she slipped out without thinking, which shocked Lingsha herself.When they met twice earlier, she deliberately called him "Uncle Master" in order to let him remember her, but this time it was out of concern, and she couldn't help blurting it out.Ziying was shocked all over, and when she turned around, she couldn't hide the surprise on her face.In his eyes, various emotions seemed to flash by in an instant, but before Lingsha could distinguish clearly, those black eyes had returned to their previous tranquility.However, although his eyes still stayed on her face, it seemed as if he had brushed past her face lightly, and cast his eyes to a place farther away.

Seeing him like this, Lingsha felt very sad, so she pulled herself together and smiled at him: "Oh, I was wrong, don't show such an expression, why don't I stop calling you that?"

Ziying was taken aback for a moment, then she looked into her eyes and slowly shook her head: "You misunderstood, I am not—" His expression was gloomy, and after all, he couldn't utter the words that followed.

Lingsha sat up, threw off the quilt and was about to get out of bed.Ziying said: "You have not recovered from your serious injury, and you still need to recuperate."

Lingsha glanced at him dissatisfied, and retorted loudly: "I've been resting for a long time, if I keep resting like this, I'm afraid mushrooms will grow on my body!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she burst out laughing.After Ziying heard this, although she still wanted to persuade her a few more words, she had no choice but to give up.

Lingsha walked over with a smile and sat down on the stool opposite him.Her body was better than yesterday, but her feet were still light when she walked, as if she was stepping on cotton.

"What book are you reading?" She stretched out her finger and tapped on the edge of the volume.

Ziying looked at her, seemed to hesitate, and kept silent.

Lingsha suddenly leaned forward to read the words on the book.Ziying has always treated people with courtesy, although she didn't want her to see it, she didn't intend to close the book, and she was caught off guard, and the big characters on the top of the page were so clearly marked by her. Look.

Lingsha got her hands, she grinned, her eyes were bright, and her pale and sick face became moister: "Are you reading medical books?"

Now that she had seen it, Ziying no longer worried, nodded and said: "That's right. This is the medical book of the Shushan school."

Lingsha smiled and said: "What do you see it doing?...Could it be to heal me?"

A look of embarrassment flashed across Ziying's face.

"Okay, okay," Lingsha smiled and waved her hands, "Actually, this kind of injury is nothing, it will be healed after two days of rest!" This time, I am afraid that there will be more bad luck, but every time she sees Ziying frowning slightly, her heart sinks. "...Ah, by the way, a small bag I carried with me is missing, have you seen it?"

Ziying thought for a while, took out a small red cloth bag the size of a palm from her sleeve, and handed it to her: "But this thing?"

Lingsha saw that it was the mouse bun that she had been thinking about since last night.She happily took it, and stretched out her index finger to open the buckle, the treasure inside was still there.

"Thank you, Ziying, you have done me a great favor!"

"You don't need to thank me for the effort." Seeing her smiling, Ziying finally frowned.

"Ziying, you—" Lingsha was about to say, "You better smile more", but was interrupted by a knock on the door.Ziying got up and went to open the door. Lingsha knew that it must be a disciple of the Shushan School, so she put away the mouse bag and sat by the window.

After hearing a few greetings at the door, the visitor asked: "Senior Murong, the girl you rescued is awake?"

Lingsha recognized that it was Baiji's voice.

Ziying replied: "Thank you for your help, her injuries are no longer serious."

——What kind of noble faction is helping!If it weren't for doubting me, they wouldn't let you save me!

Lingsha couldn't help but pouted.But Ziying is naturally not at fault, and the grievances in her chest are only caused by the Shushan School.

"Senior, you don't have to be polite." Bai Ji said again at this time. "In this case, can you please come out and see the girl? I will ask for advice when I have something to do."

At the end of her voice, there was an aggressive aura, which Ziying could understand, and this was also in his expectation. Logically, he shouldn't be involved in the entanglement between the Shushan faction and the girl in red.However, when he thought of the man who had just recovered from his serious injury and yet had to face the questioning of the Shushan sect, he felt a little bit of unbearable for a moment.

When he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a voice behind him saying softly: "Ziying, don't make things difficult, let them ask whatever they want to ask."

When Ziying turned her head, she saw that the man had walked over at some time, although her face was haggard, but her eyes were clear and her breath was steady, so she felt relieved a little.

When Baiji saw Lingsha, he didn't have any extra words, so he just saluted and said, "Girl, you have been seriously injured and comatose in the past few days, so I can't ask you in person if I have something to say. tell each other."

"My surname is Lu." Lingsha took a quick look at Ziying while fabricating a surname for herself.She really wanted to know how many days the "recent days" Baiji just said, and how much time Ziying spent looking for the soul-fixing pill for her.

Ziying noticed her expression, and there was concern in her eyes.

Lingsha's heart trembled slightly, she hurriedly looked away, and said to Bai Ji: "Please tell me."

Baiji asked: "On that day, the head and the elders activated the demon-binding magic circle to suppress the abnormal movement of the demon-locking tower. The magic circle and the spiritual wall lasted for nearly eight days. Originally, if outsiders entered and exited the spiritual wall, our sect decided to You will know, but unexpectedly during these eight days, not only did no outsiders come in and out, but the Qinglong Baifengzhu, one of the treasures of our school, disappeared. Miss Lu, you happened to show up under the Demon Locking Tower on the eighth day. If my expectations are correct, may I ask Miss, have you been hiding in the Shushan School during the past eight days?"

Lingsha smiled, as if she didn't care: "Exactly."

Bai Ji immediately took a step forward and said sharply: "In that case, please return Miss Lu to return the orb, and our faction will let the past go!"

"Hahahaha," Lingsha raised her fingers and tapped her cheeks, and raised the corners of her mouth sarcastically, "Your statement is ridiculous. I went up the mountain this time to find Ziying, and she is not some treasure from the rare and expensive sect. Ah, the pearl, what's more, although I did stay on the mountain for a few days, what evidence do you have to prove that I took the orb? Maybe, you Shushan sent yourself a traitor and stole the orb !Actually, which school in the world has never encountered such a thing? There is no shame in admitting it."

"You!!" After hearing this, a group of Shushan disciples behind Baiji said angrily:

"Don't spit your blood!"

"How can the reputation of my Shushan School be tarnished by shameless thieves like you!"

"Why talk too much with her, let's search together!"

"If you don't hand over the orb, don't even think about going down the mountain!"

"Everyone," Ziying said suddenly at this time, "If you suspect that Miss Lu has stolen the treasure of your sect, can you provide convincing evidence? Otherwise, the two sides will insist on their own opinions, and it will be difficult to distinguish the truth from the false."

Bai Ji frowned and said, "Senior Murong, didn't he intentionally take sides because of the kindness of saving his life?"

Ziying shook her head slightly: "She saved my life, and I saved her life, why bother?"

Bai Ji said again: "Du Heng and Bai Shao told me about Miss Lu the day before yesterday. She was originally a thief, and the senior himself saw it with his own eyes. Why do you say 'difficult to tell the truth'?"

"This matter-"

"Ziying, stop talking..."

Ziying raised her hand to explain, but Lingsha grabbed her sleeve, "No matter how much we explain, they won't understand. Besides, we didn't do anything wrong, so why explain to them?"

Seeing that Ziying frowned and said nothing, she begged softly: "Ziying, I don't want to stay here anymore, take me down the mountain, okay?"

As soon as she said this, Ziying hadn't answered yet, but the Shushan disciples shouted loudly:

"Going down the mountain? The Shushan faction is that you come when you say it, and leave when you say it!"

"You can go down the mountain, leave the orb first!"

"If you dare to step out of this door, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Ziying pondered for a moment amidst the noise of the crowd, then looked at Lingsha cautiously, and said, "Miss Lu, is that orb... really not in your hands?"

Lingsha stared at him steadily, feeling a tightness in her chest.

How could she not know Ziying's intentions, as long as she answered "no" at this moment, Ziying would definitely believe what she said.

However, in the eyes of others, there is actually no difference between her running around in her previous life and her hard work in this life.Ziying will know this sooner or later, how much she hopes Ziying can understand...

"Miss Lu?"

Ziying's voice brought her back to her senses.

"...Ziying," she shook her head slowly, exhausted by the conversation and thinking just now, "I want to go down the mountain...I don't want to stay here for a moment."

After she finished speaking, she didn't speak anymore, and she didn't answer whether the orb was in her hands.Seeing this, all the people in Shushan held their sword hilts and glared at each other, waiting for Ziying's reply.

Seeing that she was on the verge of falling, Ziying felt indescribably worried, so she bowed to everyone: "For today's matter, I'm sorry I can't accompany you. I'm going to go down the mountain with Miss Lu at this moment. Please don't ask me if you don't like me." Stop it. If it is found out that the treasure is really in Miss Lu's hands in the future, I will definitely send you a justice, but at that time, all the blame will be borne by the next person, and it has nothing to do with Miss Lu."

"Senior Murong!" After hearing these words, everyone in Shushan was shocked and angry.Baiji drew out her sword, and her puzzled eyes lingered between Ziying and Lingsha:

"Senior Murong, this girl is indeed transformed by a monster, senior, don't trust her lightly, and fall into her tricks!"

She waved the sword in one hand, took out two talisman papers in the other, and activated the spell in her mouth, several white lights shot towards Lingsha.Ziying hugged Lingsha and led her aside.While his thoughts were turning, the magic sword flew out of the scabbard, its evil power resisted the magic-breaking spell activated by Baiji, and the sword body suddenly glowed with blood.Lingsha only felt the world spinning, and her body slowly slid down.

"You!..." Ziying saw that the girl in her arms was already dead, but all the disciples in Shushan drew their swords one after another, and they seemed to be besieging her.Over the past hundred years, he has seen all the suffering in the world, and he has long been calm and rarely gets angry, but today's events make his mood fluctuate, and it is difficult to restrain his anger now.He took the girl on the magic sword, and at the same time summoned Feiwen Huanri.The people in Shushan were blocked by the sword energy that was difficult to distinguish between reality and reality, and the magic sword carried the two of them and flew down the mountain smoothly.
