"You, please don't, don't think too much, just stay calm and wait!" A Luoxia Sect disciple who stuttered a bit answered.
The person who spoke to Ye Xiuluo was named Du Dou, who was sent by the second elder Xia Aotian to take care of him.
Du Dou was probably an outer disciple of the Luoxia Sect. His status and cultivation strength were among the lowest, and he also stuttered a bit when he spoke.
However, Du Dou is a very honest person and has no evil intentions, so the two of them have always gotten along well.
"How can I feel at ease? I might die one day." Ye Xiuluo sighed with emotion.
Du Dou scratched the back of his head honestly and said, "But if Elder Yan doesn't give the order, no one will dare to let you go."
Of course Ye Xiuluo also knew, he just couldn't help but complain.
"Du Dou, who gave you this name?" He lay lazily on the deck chair in the courtyard and chatted with Du Dou.
Du Dou was a little confused, but he still explained: "Yes, it was my father who caused it. What, what happened?"
"Oh, it's nothing, I just think your name is good and has a lot of meaning!"
"Hey, I think it does, and it has connotations." Du Dou grinned with a wide mouth and a simple smile.
In fact, Du Dou is not stupid, but most of his intelligence is spent on eating.
After several months of getting along, Ye Xiuluo got to know Dudou quite well. He didn't have any other hobbies, his only hobby was eating.
Du Dou's superb barbecue skills opened Ye Xiuluo's eyes. In his opinion, no one could match Du Dou's barbecue skills.
"It's almost noon. I'm going to catch a pheasant and come back. Let's change it and improve the food today." Du Dou said with some excitement.
Roasting pheasant is his hobby, but pheasant drumsticks are Du Doudou's favorite. He has no choice but to just eat like this.
Even Ye Xiuluo, who had always gotten along well with him, usually found it difficult to get Dudou's drumsticks.
"Okay, go ahead and bring a bottle of wine."
"okay"
After Du Dou left, Ye Xiuluo was lazily basking in the sun with a piece of weed in his mouth, looking quite leisurely and at ease.
But in his heart, he was not as relaxed as he seemed on the surface. He still remembered the grudge he had made back then.
"But I can't do anything now!" He sighed helplessly again. He was really almost like a useless person, and he really couldn't raise his energy.
During the months of being under house arrest here, the only thing he could look forward to was Du Dou's different types of barbecue every day. Only the food cooked by Du Dou could arouse his appetite.
Ye Xiuluo wanted to try to practice again, but he failed again and again, which made him a little discouraged.
If you want to practice cultivation again, you must first heal your damaged heart, but this is basically impossible.
Back then, he didn't even find a treasure that could heal his heart. What's more, now, being imprisoned in Canglan Pavilion, he had no chance to get out!
The Supreme Emperor who once stood at the top and looked down upon all the heroes is now unable to even protect himself. Telling this will probably make people laugh!
The fucking days are repeated day after day, neither fast nor slow.
This feeling of being imprisoned is really uncomfortable. If it had been anyone else, I would have gone crazy.
Outside Canglan Pavilion, there are always other disciples of the Luoxia Sect guarding him, and Du Dou is responsible for taking care of his daily life inside the courtyard.
But other Luoxia Sect disciples would never let him step outside the confines of Canglan Pavilion.
Except for Du Dou, no one would talk to him, as if he was isolated from the world.
He repeatedly wanted to see several elders of Luoxia Sect, but they ignored him at all.
Apart from occasionally swearing loudly, Ye Xiuluo could only spend time with them like this, waiting!
Luoxia Sect Meeting Hall.
The elders all gathered here again. At this time, Yan Que asked: How is the investigation going?
Xia Aotian shook his head in disappointment, "After this period of investigation, it can be said that there is basically no clue. There is also nothing about the origin of Ye Xiuluo. Let's talk about it, how should we deal with this matter?"
The third elder answered: Since we cannot find out that the death of the sect leader is related to Ye Xiuluo, we cannot unjustly kill a good person.
Yan Que snorted coldly, "If you can't find out, it doesn't mean it has nothing to do with him. Besides, you can't even find out the origin of this kid. It shows that he is not an ordinary person. He would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. This is my opinion."
"Elder brother, if he is innocent, then our Luoxia Sect's reputation will be ruined." Xia Aotian said with a frown.
Yan Que glanced at Xia Aotian, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, but he was the second elder of Luoxia Sect after all, so Yan Que still wanted to give Xia Aotian some face.
Yan Que asked, "Second Junior Brother, what do you want?"
"Everyone must know about Shenshui Palace. Shenshui Palace was attacked by strong men. They sent people to ask us for help. Aren't we still discussing it?"
Yan Que wondered: Does this matter have anything to do with how to deal with Ye Xiuluo?
"Senior brother, don't worry, listen to what I have to say. Shenshui Palace has already fallen. There is no need for us to cause any trouble to Luoxia Sect because of a fallen sect."
"I think it would be better to let Ye Xiuluo go on behalf of Luoxia Sect, and then send a disciple to follow him to prevent him from escaping halfway. Whether he lives or dies after arriving at Shenshui Palace all depends on his own destiny."
Upon hearing Xia Aotian's proposal, Yan Que looked at the elders in the hall: "What do you think?"
Several other elders nodded at the same time, indicating that this method was feasible.
If Ye Xiuluo is really innocent, they don't want to be known as killing a good person unjustly, otherwise it will spread to the ears of other sects in the future, which will be really embarrassing to grandma's family.
Xia Aotian's proposal can not only deal with Ye Xiuluo, but also solve the problem of Shenshui Palace. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"Then let's do it." Yan Que said firmly.
Originally, he wanted to kill Ye Xiuluo, but it could be seen that the other elders did not agree with his idea, so they did not persist.
In Canglan Pavilion, Master Ye Xiuluo was plucking the feathers of a pheasant. The pheasant was just caught by Du Doudou. It was quite small and could feed two people for a day.
"Haha, you are quite interested!" Xia Aotian smiled lightly. After everyone made the decision, he immediately rushed to Canglan Pavilion.
Ye Xiuluo was a little surprised. He did not expect that Xia Aotian would suddenly appear. In the past few months of his imprisonment, this was the first time he had seen the elders of the Luoxia Sect.
"Old man Xia, how long are you going to lock me up?" Ye Xiuluo asked casually. How could he have imagined that Xia Aotian was here to let him go?
"Haha, are you in a hurry? Young man, you have to keep your composure." Xia Aotian joked. In fact, Xia Aotian didn't have any ill intentions towards him.
When he first met Ye Xiuluo, he had a vague feeling that Ye Xiuluo had nothing to do with the death of Sect Master Hai.
Xia Aotian himself couldn't explain why. It was just an intuition, and he believed in his intuition very much.
"Calm down? I've been down for a fucking thousand years, is it possible that I have to be down for another thousand years? Damn it!" Of course, he just thought about these words in his own mind and did not say them out loud.
.
"Tell me, why is Elder Xia here?"
"I'm here to tell you how to deal with your decision."
Hearing Xia Aotian's words, Ye Xiuluo's expression suddenly became tense. He did not interrupt and listened quietly to Xia Aotian's story.
"Ask me to help Shenshui Palace on behalf of the Luoxia Sect? You bastard, you are asking me to die!" Ye Xiuluo cursed angrily.
He doesn't have any level of cultivation now, so asking him to help Shenshui Palace face powerful enemies is no different from killing him indirectly.
It's just that the Luoxia Sect doesn't want to be known as someone who killed a good person unjustly.
"Ye Xiuluo, this is the opportunity I have won for you. As long as you leave the Luoxia Sect, you will still have a chance of survival. Don't be ignorant of good and evil." Xia Aotian said meaningfully.
"Haha, do I still need to thank you? I sent your sect master's body back with good intentions, but in exchange I not only got a slap in the face, but was also imprisoned by you for half a year." Ye Xiuluo looked gloomy.
If his strength and cultivation were still there, who would dare to treat him like this? Would he dare to lend Yan Que some courage?
In fact, it is not that Ye Xiuluo cannot accept this result. Xia Aotian is right. As long as he can leave the Luoxia Sect, he will have a glimmer of hope.
On the contrary, if he had been imprisoned, it would have been a matter of time before he died at the hands of Yan Que.
"Ye Xiuluo, you have to understand one thing. To yourself, your life is very precious, but to others, your life is not precious. The life and death of the weak has always been decided by the strong." Xia Aotian
reminded.
"Hmph, I understand the law of the jungle and the strong, I don't need you to remind me." Ye Xiuluo snorted coldly, and then asked: Why are you helping me?
Xia Aotian sighed helplessly.
"My intuition tells me that this matter should have nothing to do with you. My conscience does not allow me to turn a blind eye, but my ability is limited, and there is only so much I can do to help you."
Hearing Xia Aotian's heartfelt words, Ye Xiuluo looked squarely at Xia Aotian, not because Xia Aotian helped him, but because of Xia Aotian's words.
"His conscience does not allow him to turn a blind eye." This sentence touched Ye Xiuluo's heart.
Maybe he felt that he should re-examine the old man Xia in front of him.
"This time I will ask Du Dou to follow you. On the surface, I am watching you and not letting you escape halfway. But if you can find a way to survive, I hope you can take care of you for the sake of him.
Come on, treat him kindly."
Ye Xiuluo said disdainfully: "Don't worry about this, I'm not the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity."
Hearing Ye Xiuluo's deliberately sarcastic words, Xia Aotian smiled bitterly, turned around and left Canglan Pavilion without saying anything more.
