Chapter 28 We are friends

It was already dawn when I returned to Yao Town. The farmers who had gotten up early and worked had already gone to the fields to cultivate. Xueyan hurriedly walked towards Bihua Mountain. Suddenly, on the field not far away, a man fell on the vegetable bed, as if he had fainted. Xueyan walked over and leaned over to check it out. He was shocked. This person was actually dead, and his soul was also evacuated. Xueyan was shocked. After so long, hasn't this murderer been caught yet? Who is this murderer? He can kill people silently in front of her without being discovered by her. How profound is such a magic power? Xueyan can't feel the evil spirit, but has to be afraid. But what is the purpose of killing people like this?

"What else do you have to say?" Xueyan was still pondering, and a voice sounded behind her.

Xueyan turned around and was the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest looked at Xueyan's expression and said, "It's true that you are harming others."

"It's not me, I just arrived here too." Xueyan defended.

Is it to blame her for killing someone in front of her?

"The evidence is conclusive, how can I believe you again?" the Taoist priest asked sternly. "I said why the killing method is so strange. It turns out that you are really making trouble. Is your cultivation a pile of life? "

"This..." Xueyan was speechless. In the eyes of people, the demon was originally a filthy thing that was done evilly. This was a deeply rooted concept. No matter how she explained it, it could not erase human disgust for monsters. Moreover, this person died in front of her, leaving her unable to argue. This was clearly for her.

The Taoist priest took out a rope full of talismans from the cuff. "Now the town is in panic. If you want to prove your innocence, let me tie you up. If you have not escaped and someone dies tomorrow, then you will naturally not be the one who causes the trouble."

Since it can prove its innocence and lead to the real murderer's performance, Xueyan did not refute it.

Seeing that Xueyan had agreed, the Taoist priest chanted the spell silently, and tied up Xueyan with ropes painted with spells. Xueyan was taken to a separate cell in the Yao Town yamen. The Taoist priest covered the talismans around the cell and looked at Xueyan and said quietly: "This is your last chance to prove your innocence, so take care of yourself." After that, he left with Xueyan's Poxue Sword.

Xueyan was naturally wronged. The Qing Dynasty was clear, so she was not worried about her own safety. She was afraid that Yang Liu and the others would not see her back for so long, so they came down the mountain to find her. Xueyan got up and looked around in the cell. It was not difficult to get out. How could such a simple lock trap her? These talismans were just decorations for Xueyan. But if they left, how could they prove their innocence? Xueyan was in a dilemma and went back and forth in the cell, silently praying that Yang Liu and the others would not know her current situation.

"Not good, no good!" Yu'er ran to Xukun Cliff in panic. Seeing Yang Liu sitting at the stone table embroidered with a silk handkerchief, he hurried over. "Sister Liu'er, now you are the only one who can save Sister Xueyan."

"Xueyan, what's wrong with her?" Yang Liu stood up and asked in surprise when she heard this.

"Sister Xueyan has never come back. I asked the bird demon in the forest to help me pay attention. They just came back and said that they saw the Taoist priest at the foot of the mountain doing the method in front of the Yao Town Yamen. There was Sister Xueyan's Poxue Sword on the table."

"Xueyan's Poxue Sword never leaves her body, how could it be in the hands of that Taoist priest?" Yang Liu thought, turned to explain to Yu'er. "Don't let Xiaoqi know about this in advance. She was already blaming herself for losing Meizhu. If she knew that Xueyan was arrested, she would be even more sad."

"Yeah, I know." Yu'er nodded repeatedly.

"I'll go down the mountain and take a look, don't leave here." Yang Liu explained everything and hurriedly went down the mountain.

The Taoist priest set up an altar at the county government office, which was to drive away evil spirits, but was hit by Yang Liu who was driven down the mountain.

Yang Liu saw that Xue Yan's Poxue Sword was indeed placed on the table, and she didn't know whether Xue Yan was dead or alive. She rushed to the altar in a hurry and asked sternly: "How could you get this sword, my sister?"

When the Taoist priest saw that a monster came, he was so arrogant and shouted loudly: "Bold monster! How dare he run to me and act wildly."

"Stop talking nonsense, where is my sister?" Yang Liu waved his hand to perform the magic trick. The light green vines rose into the air. The Taoist priest came up towards him and the two started fighting.

He heard from a distance that there seemed to be a fight in the distance, and the firefly green light flashed back and forth. Xueyan was restless and was secretly worried.

The fighting sounds became more and more intense, and it was the aura of demons, so Xueyan couldn't sit still.

"Let's go out and have a look. If you are catching the murderer, you can help." Xueyan whispered, holding her hands together, and a beautiful halo spread out from her palms. The spell around the cell instantly ignited into ashes. Xueyan slapped the lock on the door with her back hand and rushed out.

"Stop!" The moment before the Taoist priest's hand slashed Yang Liu's head, Xueyan rushed to the altar. Fortunately, it came in time. If it was a little later, Yang Liu would become the dead soul under the Taoist priest's palm.

"She never leaves the mountain. The murder in the town has nothing to do with her. Please let the Taoist priest let her go."

"She is also a demon, why should I believe you?" asked the Taoist priest.

"This..." Xue Yan was speechless.

"Her skills are enough to kill people. Now that she is out of control, it is hard to guarantee that she is not the murderer." The Taoist priest was a little angry. The matter turned into this point, and it was already panic. The villagers around him stared at them fiercely, as if they wanted to swallow them alive. "Even if the demon does not have the ability to withdraw his soul, I will meet you repeatedly, but it is hard to guarantee that you will not participate."

"Since that's the case, I will admit it. I killed the people in the town." Xueyan had no choice but to think that the murderer committed crimes in front of her several times, just to frame her. It would be better to admit it first and let the real murderer relax his vigilance, and it would not be too late to find it out.

"It's really you?" The Taoist priest asked in confusion, and the whisk in his hand was still pressing against Yang Liu's throat, without any intention of letting her go.

"Yes, it's me!" Xueyan admitted without admonition. "If you let her go, I'll let you deal with it."

"Kill her! Kill her..." The villagers stood under the altar and shouted in unison.

"If you kill these monsters that harm people, no one will die again!" Some villagers plucked up their courage and shouted loudly. "Kill her and avenge the dead villagers."

The resentment and fear accumulated over the past year blinded the villagers' eyes. Regardless of the reason, Xueyan and others wanted to apologize for their death.

Seeing that Xueyan had already pleaded guilty, the Taoist priest put down the whisk. Xueyan hurriedly ran over to help Yang Liu up.

"Xueyan, how could you listen to this Taoist priest's evil words to confuse the public? You didn't do it, and you would confess your guilt?" Yang Liu asked anxiously. She knew Xueyan's temperament and had a sharp spiritual technique, but she would not hurt anyone at all.

Xueyan held her ear and whispered: "You go first, I will get out of trouble."

Yang Liu didn't leave, and looked at Xueyan worriedly.

Xueyan was a little anxious. "Go back to Bihua Mountain quickly and don't come to the town again. Give me some time. I will find the real murderer and make my innocence clear."

Yang Liu shook her head. "You are a demon now. They won't believe anything they say. How can we find out the real murderer?"

"Don't worry, I have my own way. There will always be someone in this town who dies for no reason. If the real murderer is not found, we will sooner or later be involved in our Bihua Mountain." Seeing that Yang Liu was still worried, Xueyan continued to persuade. "After all, I know the spiritual arts of the heavenly realm. His magic circle cannot trap me. If I really encounter danger, I will escape by myself. If you are here, I will be restrained."

"Okay." Yang Liu nodded silently. "Then I'll wait for you in the mountains and wait for you to find the real murderer and come back immediately."

Xueyan nodded, Yang Liu stood up and headed towards Bihua Mountain. When Xueyan saw her walking away, she breathed a sigh of relief silently.

"I traveled all over the world and asked myself about the strange things in the world, but this is the first time I have seen this monster with fairy aura. I thought you could control the fairy sword and be different from those filthy things. Now it seems that this is the case." The Taoist priest sighed coldly, with a little regret in his eyes. "I took a look and overestimated you."

Xueyan turned around and faced the Taoist priest. "At present, I know that it is useless to explain anything. What is the Taoist priest going to do with me."

"It is natural to kill someone. You are a monster again, so the fate will naturally be destroyed." The Taoist priest said the most cruel judgment word by word.

"Yes, I can't let her run away anymore." A villager shouted. Xueyan turned her head and saw the villagers under the altar full of anger and disgust.

Xueyan sighed, "The monster is a monster, no matter how hard it struggles, she cannot get rid of such an identity that scares the villagers."

Xueyan turned around and looked at the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest had already launched the magic spell of eliminating demons. The magic spell of eliminating demons condensed into a rope and lingered around Xueyan. Xueyan's afterwards glanced at the Poxue Sword not far away, and with a soft call, the Poxue Sword came to him.

"The Taoist priest's eyes are as sharp as a torch, how can I let it go!" Xueyan broke free from the bondage of the spell, and the Po Xue sword was unsheathed in the air, waved his backhand, and the sharp sword energy shattered the cover of death, and the magic of eliminating demons turned into nothing. Xueyan jumped up, jumped onto the roof, returned the sword to the sheath, and shouted loudly. "I owe this life first, when I find the real murderer, I will explain it to you!" After that, he turned around and quickly leaped away, and ran away.

Xueyan didn't have any clues about who the real murderer was, but instead became a fugitive to be arrested. Now there are signs to arrest Xueyan everywhere in the city, and the town center can't go back. Xueyan leaned under a tree in the suburbs, not knowing where to go. She knew very little about the matter in the world. The whole thing was like a mess and didn't know where to start.

Why not take a break first and wait until it gets dark before slipping back to the town to check the situation. Xueyan sat on the grass on the tree.

In the beautiful weather, Hua Ruoxi was sitting under the window in the restaurant in the center of Yao Town, gently caressing the jade pendant he won back in Ji Xian's hand, looking comfortable.

"Miss, someone has returned. King Ji Xian found your junior sister Xueyan." A maid walked in and owed her body.

"How could that happen? Didn't the prince go to Hezhou?" Hua Ruoxi asked in surprise.

"I met in Hezhou. It is said that your junior sister robbed the prince's convoy, but the prince did not blame him. Instead, she praised him. During the period of time in Hezhou, she has been with the prince."

"How is it possible? Where is the prince at this time?"

"I have already set off and returned. Hezhou is not far from here, so it should be almost here."

"That Xueyan... is she back with the prince?"

"I just don't know about this, but a Taoist priest in the east of the town just now seemed to have caught a monster, but ran away. Now he is posting notices everywhere. I look at the woman on the notice and look very much like your junior sister."

"Is that true?" Hua Ruoxi clenched her fists secretly. She didn't believe that Xueyan would lie to her, nor did she believe that Xueyan would go to Hezhou to find Ji Xian. She remembered that Xueyan personally promised her that she would not let Ji Xian find her. She must have made some mistakes. Hua Ruoxi stood up. "Take me to have a look."
