Chapter 567: Cliff Top(1/2)
Xu Luo could only faintly hear that Zhihe seemed to mutter something about dragons and mice, but at this moment, the clear character in his body suddenly lit up with white light.
He felt horrified in his heart, what was going on? Could there be any other uses for that dragon rat that was so fat that it could be used in hot pot?
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Zhihe had once mentioned that even Qin Xuanji had praised this dragon rat for its vigilance talent. Thinking of this, Xu Luo's eyes couldn't help but twinkle.
Time passed by, and Xu Luo quietly looked at the short, ant-like figure at his feet, not even moving for a long while.
Zhihe would let out pitiful howls from time to time, accompanied by bursts of vague mumblings, but because of the poisonous insects, no one could hear what he was saying.
Although Xu Luo also couldn't hear Zhi He's murmur clearly, he could roughly guess that he must be venting the grievances he had suppressed in his heart for so many years at this moment.
Even Xu Luo can understand Zhi He's current mood.
Such a completely self-destructive act of madness is the kind of explosion that has been suppressed to the extreme. Zhiyu's report is just the introduction.
Many people may think that since we are all brothers, Zhihe is a little too petty, and he can act like a life-or-death person with just a few mocking words.
But if this smile lasts for ten years or decades, if this smile has become a daily habit for everyone, and even everyone around them takes it for granted, then what can Zhihe do?
Xu Luo had never experienced this kind of treatment no matter how difficult it was, so he didn't know how he would react and didn't want to express his opinion on this matter.
But he knows that the human heart is like a spring that cannot be broken. If it is pressed to the extreme, it will definitely suffer the most ferocious rebound.
This is the deepest revengeful instinct of the human soul and has nothing to do with the cultivation of one's mind.
Qin Xuanji and other masters also had different expressions on their faces. Even Jinghai, who had always been strict, had emotions in his eyes at this moment.
But sympathy is due to sympathy, and the few real people still don't have any good impressions of Zhihe, who is outburst and demeaning themselves.
By their age, they have already seen clearly that practicing this path is extremely cruel. If they can survive it, they will naturally be like the stars in their palms and become immortals and ancestors. If they cannot survive it, they will disappear into the world and become a stepping stone for others.
.
If you don't have an extremely strong mind, you might as well return to Black Turtle City as soon as possible to marry a wife and have children, and live a perfect life. That would be great too.
With Ru Zhihe's personality, to be honest, the few real people have the exact opposite views of Xu Luo, and they are quite disdainful of him.
Even if Jinghui protects him for a while, can he still be protected for the rest of his life?
Xu Luo was keenly aware of the disapproval in the minds of several real people, and he suddenly smiled and saluted.
"Sect Master, how about leaving this matter to the juniors?"
Qin Xuanji frowned slightly, wondering what this matter had to do with Xu Luo. Only Master Jinghui's expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something.
"Because only the disciples know that the Jade Heart Grass used by Zhihe to promote Dragon Rat came from Tathagata!"
Seeing the subconscious smile on Xu Luo's face, Qin Xuanji suddenly looked surprised and blurted out.
"It couldn't have been given by your boy, but the promotion time of Dragon Rat was at least in years, and you didn't even get started at that time..."
Having said this, he showed a look of surprise again.
"It was a good thing you did last time by sneaking into Lingyun Peak late at night!"
Master Jinghai frowned and asked in disbelief.
"The person who entered Lingyun Peak last night was actually you?"
Seeing the old man's face turned upside down, Xu Luo felt a little nervous and quickly laughed out loud.
"Uncle Master, please forgive me. It was just the disciple's randomness. In addition, my admiration for the sect cannot be increased, so there was a small misunderstanding, and it didn't cause any damage..."
"According to the sect's laws, anyone who breaks into the forbidden talisman array to spy on secrets will be punished at the least, to the point of Si Guo Cliff, or at the worst, he will have his cultivation level revoked and be expelled from Lingyun Peak!"
Master Jinghai didn't give Xu Luo a chance to quibble at all, and just shouted in a low voice with an expressionless face.
Xu Luo finally realized how difficult and rigid this old man was. As long as it involved the sect's rules and regulations, Jinghai would not sell anyone's face.
The corners of Qin Xuanji's mouth twitched, showing that he had a headache. Jing Hui was stunned for a moment, but then he showed that he was watching the show.
Just kidding, with Xu Luo's current important position, can the sect's precepts control him?
I'm afraid that if Jinghai here dares to lock him up, Anyan Lin will immediately destroy Si Guofeng. He wants to see what happens to this old stubborn Jinghai in the end?
Unexpectedly, Jinghai's next words almost shocked him.
"However, since it was your first offense and you were not yet a disciple of the Upper Academy at that time, I will be lenient and give you a lighter punishment.
In addition, you are about to go to Shenmu Continent to perform meritorious service on behalf of the sect, and time is tight, so I will allow you to return to the mountain and enter Siguo Cliff to wake up!"
Jing Hui almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. A lighter punishment for a first offender was justifiable, but if he didn't join the upper courtyard, he wouldn't be considered a disciple of the sect. Could it be that Si Guofeng couldn't control the lower courtyard of Xuangui City?
Gee, can the execution be postponed?
If Xu Luo can really come back by then, he will definitely come back with Xuanqing Qi. Even Patriarch Qingren will be able to hold such great achievements in the sky.
Who dares to say this? Even if your forehead is not pinched by the door, everyone at Lingyun Peak, including the Sanxian Ancestor, will fulfill this wish for you!
You old bastard who is just looking for food!
Xu Luo was stunned for a moment, then quickly saluted knowingly.
"Disciple respectfully accepts the Master's order. From now on, you should go to the peak of reflection and reflect on your own mistakes!"
After Master Jinghai finished speaking, he walked away as if he was very angry.
Qin Xuanji and Master Jinghui looked at each other and could see the undisguised contempt in each other's eyes.
It can be seen that Xu Luo was still angry and laughing at the sudden departure of Master Jinghai, with a confused look on his face. Qin Xuanji shook his head and sighed.
"Hey, you are just fooling around. I still have to discuss the matter of Shenmu Island with Junior Brother Jingyun. It is really wasting time."
While he was talking, he looked at Zhenren Jinghai and almost chased him away without even taking action.
Master Jinghai glanced at Zhihe Worry, who was still climbing up desperately, and said in agreement.
"Then I will go and have a look with the sect leader. These young people are really too ignorant."
Xu Luo looked at the two people's quickly disappearing figures, and a smile from the bottom of his heart suddenly appeared on his dull face.
These old guys are really interesting!
Everyone had left, but he did not directly stop the farce. Instead, he sat on the edge of the cliff with great interest, stretched his feet outside and swayed a few times.
Everyone has already guessed the ins and outs of what happened.
Although it is just a misunderstanding, it does not mean that the peaceful behavior at this moment is worth promoting. On the contrary, this kind of extreme mentality is actually very undesirable.
Xu Luo even vaguely saw a bit of himself in him many years ago.
It was precisely because of this that he had a sudden idea and decided to give Zhihe a chance.
Of course, when we mentioned dragons and rats just now, Tongmingxin’s good warning is also an important opportunity.
Xu Luo may feel compassion, but he is definitely not a good person, and he doesn't owe Zhi He anything.
Here Xu Luo helps him solve the Siguofeng trouble this time, but if Zhihe wants others to respect him, he must fulfill his promise today and climb up from here!
If he couldn't hold on, Xu Luo would just turn around and leave, as if their fate was over.
If he can really hold back his unwillingness and climb to the top of the cliff, it will prove that Zhihe is the same person as himself at heart, and maybe he can really achieve something after being polished!
Time gradually passed, and Zhihe struggled to move his hands and feet like an insect struggling in the mire, paddling toward the other shore that was not yet far away.
The mountain wind roared shrilly, the poisonous insects neighed happily, and the occasional exclamations from the surrounding melon-eating people formed a strange statue of all living beings on the towering Siguo Cliff, under the cold gaze of Xu Luo.
Looking at the squirming figure under my feet, which became more and more clearly visible, and the long blood stain twisted on the steep cliff like a giant earthworm.
Xu Luo's cold eyes gradually showed more and more surprise and relief.
While crossing the cliff, the sound of wind and insects could be heard one after another, but when everyone looked at Zhihe's body that was already covered in blood scabs, they suddenly felt an endless chill in their hearts, feeling that the surroundings were filled with cold and deathly silence.
Everyone's minds were occupied by the figure that was still moving upward inch by inch.
The figure is obviously short, fat and ugly, but at this moment, it seems to be a bit taller than Si Guo Cliff, whose top cannot be seen at a glance.
I don't know how much time passed, but Zhihe, out of numb habit, stretched out his palm and groped upwards, but this time he suddenly found an empty space.
At this moment, Zhihe wanted to blend in with the cliff below him, and did not dare to lift his head at all.
He hesitated for a moment as if he wanted to understand something, and his head began to tremble slightly.
But even so, there was still no reaction from his body, as if a corpse was being dragged beneath the head of a living person.
Xu Luoding looked at this miserable scene and resisted the urge to reach out and give him a hand.
He also gradually understood why Zhihe could persist until now?
To outsiders, this may be just a farce, but to Zhihe, it is a farewell to the past, a nirvana from death to life.
To help him at this time would be a naked humiliation!
After a long while, Zhihe seemed to have finally regained some clarity of consciousness, and the palm of his hand that was clinging to the edge of the cliff above suddenly began to twitch.
But the strange thing is that he didn't raise his head and climb up in time, but instead let out a suppressed howl.
Xu Luo looked stunned for a moment, but then he also laughed silently.
Until now, this child probably still can't believe that he has actually accomplished such an impossible thing.
This is the legendary cry of joy!
Zhihe seemed to finally notice someone above him. He slowly raised his head and saw a white palm stretching from the top of the cliff to his eyes.
