Zi Mian's head fell to the ground, but there was no blood on the broken parts of his head and neck.
The head rolled around on the ground several times, and the mask fell off, revealing the wooden head underneath.
It is indeed puppetry!
Jiang Qingyun was secretly annoyed. She knew that with Zi Mian's caution, she would not dare to see her in her true body.
At this moment, the puppet's head could still speak, and it let out a strange laugh,
It seemed like a ruthless mockery of Jiang Qingyun.
"Prepare half a million spirit stones, or your little apprentice who is optimistic about you."
After the words fell, the puppet's head was shattered into pieces of wood on the ground by the sword light.
Jiang Qingyun's face became gloomy, and her breathing gradually became longer.
It wasn't that she couldn't come up with half a million, but she knew clearly that Zi Mian was targeting her, and half a million was just the beginning.
She promised once, and she would do it countless times later.
And if she didn't agree, she didn't know what Zi Mian would do to Zhang Chi.
The veins on Jiang Qingyun's sword-holding hand were clearly visible. She was trying very hard to restrain her murderous intention.
There is a very simple way to solve the problem of purple noodles. Solve the killer's problems in the killer's way.
However, she has been practicing martial arts for many years.
Once she picked it up again, she didn't know if she could put it down again...
"You will come back, my good sister."
A gloomy whisper came from the dark and gloomy room, but at this moment, a fire suddenly lit up in the room.
"Xiao Zi, aren't you sleeping either?"
Chen Runyu sat up excitedly and lit the candle, but when she saw the gloomy look on the girl's face, her smile faded and she quickly comforted: "Xiao Zi, do you miss your sister again?"
"Um."
"Don't be sad, I've been looking for people everywhere, and I will definitely tell you if I have any news."
Chen Runyu patted the petite girl on the back lovingly and comforted her gently.
This little girl's name is Xiao Zi, and she was met by Chen Runyu when he was going down the mountain to do a mission.
At that time, she was huddled alone in the corner of a dilapidated temple. Chen Runyu couldn't bear it, so he went over to talk to her, only to find out that Xiaozi was an orphan and was dependent on her sister.
But then her sister also disappeared, so she searched all over the world for her sister.
Chen Runyu couldn't bear it and was worried that she, a little girl, would not have the means to make a living outside, so she took her back to the Sword Sect and became a handyman disciple beside her.
The inner disciples of the Sword Sect can hire handyman disciples on their own, and the sect has no objection and no responsibility.
The handyman disciples are not allowed to go to many places, and if the handyman disciple makes a mistake, the inner disciple who hired him will be fully responsible.
The Sword Sect advocates asceticism, so there are not many people who hire handyman disciples. Chen Runyu didn't keep Xiao Zi for pleasure, but just to take care of her, and he didn't arrange much work for Xiao Zi.
After all, she looked just over 1.4 meters tall. She was so small that Chen Runyu couldn't bear to let her take care of him.
But Xiao Zi is very sensible and always keeps their house clean.
And she is very well-behaved. Every time Chen Runyu shares gossip, she will listen quietly.
After getting along for a long time, Chen Runyu also regarded Xiaozi as his sister.
She also became more and more concerned about helping her find her sister.
But it’s not easy to find someone in such a huge crowd.
Chen Runyu tried her best, but according to the clues provided by Xiaozi, she gained nothing.
Chen Runyu would never have thought that the petite and cute girl next to her was actually the killer Zi Mian whom Zhongzhou talks about.
She had already locked the person she wanted to find, and the news she told Chen Runyu was all false. It was surprising that Chen Runyu could find him.
The reason why I followed Chen Runyu was because at that time, among the members of the Sword Sect, only Chen Runyu seemed to be the most deceptive.
It was also because she was too relaxed when she was with Chen Runyu that she even talked to herself in their residence.
It seems that stupidity is contagious.
Zi Mian was secretly vigilant, and returned a sweet smile, saying: "I'm fine.
What's wrong with Sister Xiaoyu today? She seems to have something very happy?"
"Of course I'm happy! I helped senior brother do a big thing, and senior brother even wrote to me specially!"
Chen Runyu was easily led away by Xiao Zi. She talked about how she showed great power today and how she gave the evil Zhou Ran a headache.
The most important thing is that she received Zhang Chi's letter.
In the letter, Zhang Chi thanked her for everything she had done, but the focus was on telling her to pay attention to safety.
Sensing the importance his senior brother attached to him in the letter, Chen Runyu was so excited that he couldn't even fall asleep.
"Sister Xiaoyu, do you like your senior brother very much?"
When Zi Mian asked this question, she had a slight smile on her face and squinted her eyes, making it impossible to see the murderous intention in her heart.
Chen Runyu was naturally unaware of it. Although he was a little shy, there was nothing he couldn't say in front of his sisters.
So, Chen Runyu told Zi Mian the story about herself and Zhang Chi in detail.
This is not the first time Zi Mian has listened to it, but she listens very carefully every time and never interrupts Chen Runyu.
But this time, after listening, she asked: "Sister Xiaoyu, since you like him so much, why don't you tell him?"
Chen Runyu's face froze.
If she had had the courage, she would have gone long ago.
But how dare she!
She is just an ordinary girl, but the senior brother does not dislike her and befriends her.
Moreover, before the Tang Ruoling incident, Zhang Chi and she had no ambiguity, only the care and love of the senior for the younger.
She had no choice but to hide her feelings. It wasn't until that day, when Zhang Chi was going to rescue Tang Ruoling, that he looked at her several times. At that time, she realized what she had missed.
But it's too late to regret now.
"He already has Miss Tang, so I'd better not disturb his life."
From the beginning, they were not suitable. Just like being brothers and sisters now, it is actually quite good.
"In this case... how about I go and deliver the letter for you? He wrote you a letter, you should reply to it, right?"
"Uh...it's not a formal letter, so no need..."
As he said this, Chen Runyu began to think about it subconsciously.
Although it was just a few words written in a small note passed down by others, it also represented the senior brother's concern for her.
If you don't respond, will your senior brother be sad?
That night, Chen Runyu only thought about this matter, tossing and turning and unable to sleep. Early the next morning, she had courses to take. When she went out, she wrote a reply to Zhang Chi after revising it more than ten times.
"Xiao Zi, please go and send it off for me. You should know where the senior brother's residence is!"
"I know, Sister Xiaoyu, you took me there nearby, have you forgotten?"
Zi Mian smiled and took the letter, waved his hand and said: "I will deliver the letter to him properly."
Chen Runyu's face turned red again, and she turned around and ran away.
"I went to the formation class..."
Zi Mian looked at her innocent look and watched her leave, his eyes narrowed with a fierce look.
"Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi, you have your sister's favor and you still show mercy everywhere, let me cut your heart open and see what kind of person you are..."
