Chapter 57: Bad people will never become good people "You thought of saving him...

Yu Yao/Wen

Xiche's perspective changed back to Jin Lingzi's first-person perspective. Jin Lingzi was kneeling in front of a spirit tablet and kowtowing. After kowtowing, he said: "Master, I will follow your teachings and dare not teach the magic created by you to others, let alone accept any more disciples. But the magic created by the master is profound and extensive. It is a pity that it has been lost. I have recorded all the magic in a book and buried it under the master's spirit tablet today. If I can meet someone with a predestined relationship in the future and learn the magic, it will not be a waste. "

After Jin Lingzi finished speaking, he buried a book with a blank cover in a floor tile in front of the spirit tablet.

That's right, that spirit tablet was the tablet of the god of war Azas, and Xi Che recognized the book with a blank cover at a glance. It was his notebook, and the book recorded the spells he created.

Seeing Jin Lingzi being so respectful to him with his own eyes, it would be a lie to say that he was not touched in his heart. At least Xi Che felt that he was not let down. To be honest, if we talk about the relationship between him and Jin Lingzi as a master and disciple, it was Xi Che who let him down more. Although he taught Jin Lingzi spells seriously, since he came to the demon world, Xi Che has tended to give up on his own life. Even if he accepted an apprentice, he did not become active. He was more of a free-range state with Jin Lingzi. He didn't expect that he would be so attentive to him...

Xi Che immediately felt some regret, When he left, he just wanted to leave everything behind and die. He never made any arrangements for his disciple. He was really cold-hearted.

Jin Lingzi buried the book in the floor tiles, but after thinking for a moment, he dug out the notebook, tore off two pages, and burned the fire formula to ashes. He said to himself: "It is better not to leave any records of the two chapters of Soul Binding and Soul Searching. "

After Jin Lingzi finished all these things, he buried the notebook back under the floor tiles.

Xi Che sighed softly in his heart. Up to now, nothing Jin Lingzi did had violated the orders of his master. He even did some things better than himself. Soul Binding and Soul Searching were the two most bizarre chapters in this notebook. He was reluctant to burn his own notebook, but destroyed these two, which was considered as his best effort.

Xi Che was sighing, but he didn't expect that there would be a sequel. About a quarter of an hour after Jin Lingzi left, a young man walked out from behind the tablet. He stared at Jin Lingzi's back and smiled, "Since it is a good book, it would be a waste to bury it underground. "

This young man is none other than Meng Xinghe.

A needle-like pain suddenly spread from his brain, and Xi Che hurriedly closed his eyes. All the images disappeared into the darkness - he was forced to eject his memories because he could not withstand the power of the Zhuyou insect. After all, now is different from the past. There is no such powerful magic power to support Xi Che to use this technique. It is very easy to be backfired when Jin Lingzi forced his memories to appear. The pain from the brain at this time is the result of the backlash. Baihu sneered and mocked in his sea of ​​​​consciousness: "You will suffer if you commit evil. "

Xi Che didn't bother to argue with Bai Hu. He took a deep breath, and his temples were throbbing with pain. He had misunderstood Jin Lingzi. He had never betrayed him, nor had he ever secretly accepted any apprentices. Meng Xinghe was the culprit of all the events. No wonder he said he didn't know how to bind souls. It was Jin Lingzi who had never taught him the spell.

However, the memory Jin Lingzi showed was incomplete, and it was impossible to restore the truth of the matter based on speculation alone. Xi Che did not find out the cause of Jin Lingzi's death, nor did he see the truth of the battle of Qiu Village, so He didn't care about his own body and forced himself into Jin Lingzi's memory again.

This time the scene took place in a reception room. There were three people in the room, Meng Xinghe, Jin Lingzi, and a man in black clothes and silver armor. The man and Jin Lingzi sat at a table with a sand table for battle. Xi Che immediately thought of this man in black, could it be He Feilong? He looked to be in his thirties, dressed like a general. Meng Xinghe stood obediently behind Jin Lingzi, slightly lowering his head, as if listening to their conversation.

"Qiu Village is strategically located and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The whole village is united, making it a tough nut to crack. Feilong, if you can't take it down, just give up Qiu Village. "

Jin Lingzi's tone was helpless. Listening carefully to his words, he should be talking about the battle of Qiu Village mentioned by Meng Xinghe.

He Feilong frowned and stared at the sand table for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I will negotiate with the high priest again. Qiu Village is located between Xiaoyao Mountain and Ruoshui. If this road can't be opened, the spiritual spring can't be brought in, which will not be beneficial to the future development of Xiaoyao Mountain. "

Jin Lingzi nodded: "This is the only way, but don't force it, you just need to try your best. "

After He Feilong said goodbye to Jin Lingzi, he left. Meng Xinghe walked out from behind Jin Lingzi and said to her with a smile: "You trust He Feilong so much, be careful that he might stab you in the back. "

Jin Lingzi naturally didn't believe Meng Xinghe's words: "Don't employ people if you doubt them, and don't doubt people if you employ them. How can you doubt the general when two armies are at war? "

Meng Xinghe played with the ends of his hair with a smile on his lips, but his words were extremely vicious: "If it were anyone else, I would naturally not doubt him, but he is a surrendered general of the Qiang tribe, so it is inevitable that he would hold resentment. I heard that General Feilong was extremely brave and invincible when he was in his tribe. But when he came to our Xiaoyao Mountain, he couldn't even conquer a small Qiu village after such a long time. It was because he was not dedicated enough. This is really a betrayal of your kindness. "

Jin Lingzi suddenly interrupted Meng Xinghe: "Enough! "He showed some anger on his face: "General Feilong is an old friend of mine. Although we have different positions, I know that he has excellent character. If the ruler of the Qiang clan was not unwilling to show benevolence, he would not have surrendered to us. I trust him very much. Xinghe, you must never say such things again, otherwise you will be punished by military law! "

Meng Xinghe was stunned for a moment: "He is your old friend? "

Jin Lingzi sighed: "Yes, he is my old acquaintance and close friend, so don't say such things anymore. "

After Jin Lingzi finished speaking, she ignored Meng Xinghe and turned to leave. However, Meng Xinghe stared at Jin Lingzi's back with a sinister look, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"This guy is going to cause trouble. "

Before Xi Che could say anything, Baihu had already spoken in his sea of ​​consciousness. Xi Che subconsciously frowned - to be honest, he also had this bad premonition. From Jin Lingzi's memory, Meng Xinghe was a ruthless person with deep scheming. He was not as kind and filial as he appeared to be in front of her.

Soon a letter came from Qiu Village, saying that General Feilong had successfully negotiated with the high priest and reached an agreement. They were willing to make way for the people of Xiaoyao Mountain to collect the spiritual spring. Jin Lingzi was very happy and said to Meng Xinghe, you see, General Feilong is still capable. He probably forgot that he had reprimanded Meng Xinghe for He Feilong, and thought that everything would develop in a good way. But the next day after the news came, Qiu Village rioted. They tore up the peace agreement and sent it over along with the torn agreement. The head of He Feilong was also found.

This happened too suddenly. Jin Lingzi looked at He Feilong's unwilling death, as if struck by lightning. He was extremely angry and went to Qiu Village in person to avenge him. Meng Xinghe was Jin Lingzi's guardian, so he naturally followed him. When the two arrived at Qiu Village, someone rushed towards them with bared fangs and claws. He noticed that those who rushed towards him were surrounded by wisps of black air, as if they were possessed by demons. Jin Lingzi was furious and immediately judged that He Feilong was killed by these possessed people. He immediately drew his sword and killed them all.

All this happened very quickly, but Xi Che felt a chill running up the back of his neck at this time. He had a hunch that this behavior would have very serious consequences - this hunch could almost be confirmed by the hideous smile on Meng Xinghe's face that he could hardly suppress.

"There is something strange about General Feilong's death."

After Jin Lingzi calmed down, he finally regained his rationality: "We must investigate the ins and outs of this matter."

"Let me go."

Meng Xinghe stood up at this time, and he said sincerely: "No matter what, General Feilong sacrificed himself for Xiaoyao Mountain, and he must give an explanation."

Jin Lingzi looked at him without answering, so Meng Xinghe gently pulled his sleeve - his face was extremely deceptive, and he was good at using his own advantages to deceive Jin Lingzi.

"Although we had some conflicts in the past, but at this critical moment, who else can stand by you except me. Trust me, I will definitely do this beautifully."

Jin Lingzi finally nodded in agreement: "I believe you."

Meng Xinghe immediately smiled as brightly as peach blossoms in March. At this moment, it seemed that he was really sincere.

Jin Lingzi actually believed in Meng Xinghe. In his eyes, Meng Xinghe was still a teenager. Even though some of his actions were too sinister when they first met, after being by his side for so many years and under his careful teaching, he had grown up to be very upright. Meng Xinghe had kept everything he had done a secret from Jin Lingzi, and he handled it very cleanly afterwards, which had never aroused his suspicion. But in the matter of He Feilong, Jin Lingzi inexplicably developed a subtle suspicion towards Meng Xinghe.

Jin Lingzi looked at Meng Xinghe's receding back for a long time and sighed slightly: "Shadow Guard, you assist Xinghe in investigating this matter. Also... don't let him notice it."

This was the cause of everything and the fuse of everything. If Jin Lingzi had been so sharp from the beginning, he probably would not have left behind a scourge like Meng Xinghe. If he had continued to be slow, things would not have become an unmanageable situation. The shadow guard found out the truth easily - or rather, he was very lucky and happened to find out the truth, because when Meng Xinghe was about to kill the last survivor of Qiu Village, the shadow guard arrived and saved the survivor who was still breathing.

The man was brought before Jin Lingzi. According to him, the outcome of the battle of Qiu Village was indeed as described in the letter sent back by He Feilong. They had reached a reconciliation with Qiu Village, and the high priest had also compromised and was willing to share the spiritual spring. But just as they were preparing a banquet and drinks to receive He Feilong and his party, their high priest was captured by He Feilong's men. In less than a day, his head was sent back to the village. Everyone in Qiu Village went crazy. The high priest was the spiritual pillar of the entire village. Everyone in the village was brave and united, and they obeyed the high priest's orders. Now that the high priest was killed inexplicably, the entire Qiu Village rioted. They believed that this was a conspiracy of Xiaoyao Mountain. From the beginning, they had no intention of reconciliation and only wanted to take the spiritual spring for themselves. He Feilong's proposal of reconciliation was just a temporary measure to catch them off guard.

He Feilong had no idea what was going on and was discussing with his personal soldiers in the tent. At this moment, a group of armed youths from Qiu Village rushed in and surrounded him. Before He Feilong could react, he was hacked to death by the angry youths. Later, his head was sent back to Xiaoyao Mountain.

However, Qiu Village did not seem to gain any advantage from this sudden change. Someone poisoned the celebratory wine, and the poison took effect the next morning, killing most of the people in Qiu Village.

"On the day of the peace talks with Qiu Village, someone saw you in the village."

Jin Lingzi stared at Meng Xinghe closely, her eyes almost bleeding: "I didn't assign you any tasks, what were you doing there?"

After being exposed, Meng Xinghe did not show any nervousness, but just smiled at Jin Lingzi: "You don't believe me? Do you believe these treacherous guys in Qiu Village, and don't believe me?"

"It's not us who betrayed us! It's Xiaoyao Mountain! More than one person saw you being welcomed into the tent by the high priest, and then there was news of his death! It was because you killed the high priest that we attacked He Feilong, our commander! The remaining brothers in Qiu Village who were not poisoned also died in your hands! You have been leading people to hunt us down... They are all dead, all dead! If you hadn't instigated this, why would you kill us all?!"

The captive tied to the side accused loudly, his anger and pain almost turning into fresh blood. Blood spurted out of his mouth: "What grudge does Qiu Village have against you? Why did you do this!"

Meng Xinghe still smiled calmly: "If you don't kill the snake, you will be injured. You people are so ambitious that you even killed our General Feilong. What's wrong with me eradicating you?"

The prisoner was so angry at Meng Xinghe's words that he didn't know how to refute. He just knelt aside and yelled: "Bullshit! Bastard! You vicious beast!!!!" When

Jin Lingzi heard this, he had already figured out the whole story. He closed his eyes and said tiredly. He interrupted their argument: "Enough, take him away."

He ordered the shadow guard to take the prisoner away. Only he and Meng Xinghe were left in the room: "Now there are only two of us, tell me, why did you do this?"

Meng Xinghe was silent for a moment, but said: "Didn't you say you believed me, why did you send the shadow guard to investigate me?"

Jin Lingzi smiled bitterly: "The thing I regret most is that I believed you... No, I shouldn't have saved you at all. People like you will never change for the better."

Meng Xinghe wanted to explain, but when he heard him say this, he suddenly stopped talking. He grinned and pulled out a bad smile: "That's right, you shouldn't have believed me. Who can you blame? It's all because you are too stupid. Do you know that you are stupid for more than just this one thing. The street children and beggars you asked me to bring back before... Those people who I said found their relatives and left on their own were all killed by me. If you hadn't sent me to find someone, they might still be able to survive. It's all your fault. You killed them."

Jin Lingzi stared at Meng Xinghe and asked in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"I said, it was you who killed them!"

Meng Xinghe's tone became vicious: "Why are you so kind-hearted, huh? You want to save everyone in the world, but I don't want you to save them. There are so many people in the world, can you save them all?! How many people do you want to be around you before you are satisfied?!"

"...You evil creature!"

Jin Lingzi was so angry that he couldn't speak. He drew out the sword at his waist with trembling hands and stabbed it straight at Meng Xinghe. The latter didn't dodge, and the tip of his sword sank into Meng Xinghe's shoulder.

"I am an evil creature? Are you a good person?"

Meng Xinghe took a step towards him, blood gushing from his shoulder, but he didn't seem to feel any pain: "Do you know who those people were killed in Qiu Village?"

Meng Xinghe laughed at Jin Lingzi's stunned expression: "Don't you remember? He Feilong didn't come to you alone when he came to you. He brought his entire family with him. Didn't he ask you to help take care of them... Hahaha, I just fed them some magic powder and made them have demonic energy. Why did you kill them? They could obviously be saved. Jin Lingzi, you have more blood of the He family on your hands than me."

Xi Che felt deep despair when he listened to it. He couldn't imagine how remorseful Jin Lingzi would be after knowing all this. He only saw Jin Lingzi suddenly draw back his sword, screamed, turned around and rushed out the door. Meng Xinghe didn't chase him. He just stood there staring coldly in the direction where Jin Lingzi left, not knowing what he was thinking.

The last time the scene changed, it was in front of He Feilong's grave, where Jin Lingzi was holding a pot of wine and pouring it on the ground. Xi Che could not hear Jin Lingzi's words clearly, he could only hear his voice was miserable and desperate, intermittent - I didn't know the man well... I failed the trust... The only way to atone for this is death.

Afterwards, Jin Lingzi committed suicide in front of He Feilong's grave.

The scene stored in the Zhuyou worm ended here. Xi Che felt terrible. His head was buzzing with pain. At the same time, he also felt Jin Lingzi's anger and the resentment that could not be resolved even by death. Now he just wanted to kill Meng Xinghe, the little beast!

Baihu was jumping anxiously in his sea of ​​consciousness: "Your body is about to fail, and you still want to kill this and that. You'd better save your own life first!"

Xi Che thought he was noisy and wanted him to shut up, but the severe pain made him unable to open his eyes. He could only hear Baihu shouting at him: "Hey! Hey! That guy is coming... Wake up!"

Xi Che became angry and clenched his fist and hit his head hard, forcing himself to return to reality. Baihu's last word was still echoing in his ears like a bell. At the same time, he opened his eyes and immediately met Meng Xinghe's face, which he wished to cut into pieces. The other party was looking at him with worry.

"Master, are you okay? Master..."

Damn, don't call him Master! nausea!

Every cell in Xi Che's body was resisting this title, but he couldn't open his mouth to refute. Meng Xinghe stared at his face and said in a soft voice that sounded like a love word: "Have you...thought of a way to save Master?"
