Chapter 25

Xie Lian said, "San Lang,

Are you really okay? Let me down. "

San Lang said, "Don't come down."

Xie Lian was startled.

He thought, "What's going on? Is there something on the ground? "

That pair of hands were still tightly hugging him, with no intention of letting go. Xie Lian wanted to raise his hand and gently push San Lang's chest. However, just as he put his hand on it, he remembered that when he fell and was caught, he had carelessly groped around and felt the hard bulge in the youth's throat. Thus, he secretly retracted his hand.

He didn't know what was going on.

Xie Lian had lived for hundreds of years, but he still didn't know how to write the word "awkward."

At this moment, a voice in his heart kept warning him.

It's best not to randomly move your hands and feet.

At this moment,

He heard a roar filled with anger and grief.

A mournful roar came from the other side of the pit. "What's wrong with you guys?!"

This was the Half Moon Language, and from the sound of it,

It was General Ke Mo, who Xie Lian had pulled down. He was originally dead.

Naturally, he didn't fall to his death. It was just that this fall was very fierce.

He probably smashed a human-shaped pit and was embedded inside. When he got up,

He began to shout, "What's going on? Soldiers! My brothers, what's wrong with you?! "

Just now, he was shouting down from the high wall.

There were clearly hundreds and thousands of voices responding to him.

It was as if the depths of the pit were filled with ferocious evil spirits crying piteously for food. However, at this moment, Xie Lian's ears heard …

Other than Ke Mo's furious roar, there was only a deathly silence. He couldn't even hear the sound of San Lang's breathing and heartbeat, who was right next to him.

Xie Lian's breathing stopped. He suddenly realized something was wrong.

Yes, he was clearly sticking closely to San Lang, but he couldn't hear the youth's breathing and heartbeat at all!

Ke Mo roared, "Who killed you? Who killed you?!"

When Ah Zhao fell, he could still hear the terrifying sound of people being eaten. But after San Lang jumped, there were no more sounds. Who else could it be?

Presumably, Ke Mo immediately reacted and said, "You killed my soldiers. You deserve to die. I want you dead!"

Although he couldn't see, Xie Lian could sense danger rushing towards him. His body moved and he said, "San Lang, be careful!"

San Lang, however, said, "Don't mind him." Still holding him, he moved his feet slightly, as if turning around.

In the darkness, Xie Lian heard an extremely fine 'ding ding' sound. It was extremely pleasant to listen to, clear and intense, and it disappeared in a flash. Just as he was about to capture it again, the Qie Mo pounced on empty air and attacked again. San Lang once again lightly and deftly turned, dodging the attack. Xie Lian's arms involuntarily climbed up again, tightly hugging San Lang. Unconsciously, he tightened his grip on the clothes on San Lang's shoulders.

However, these two hands were holding him very firmly. Even though he was moving and dodging, they still held him firmly. However, from time to time, Xie Lian felt as if there was something icy cold pressing against him, and he couldn't help but be startled. In the boundless darkness, there was a flash of silver light, and the sound of sharp blades cutting and grinding could be heard from all directions.

The Half-moon General seemed to be heavily injured, but he was extremely brave and did not retreat. He attacked again with a gust of angry wind. Xie Lian called out, "Ruoxie!"

That white silk flew out in response. With a 'pa' sound, it seemed to whip the Qie Mo into a somersault in the air before falling to the ground. This fall caused the Qie Mo to roar, "You two! Two against one, despicable! "

Xie Lian thought to himself, 'You're already going to kill us, so why do you care about two against a few or two against one? Despicable or not, saving your life is more important. Kill him first and talk later.' However, San Lang snorted and laughed without the slightest hint of a smile. He said, "One against one, you have no chance of winning. Don't make a move. " The last sentence was directed at Xie Lian. His voice was a bit deeper, and the sarcasm in the previous sentence had also disappeared. Xie Lian said, "Okay." After he finished speaking, he still reminded him, "San Lang, why don't you put me down first. I'll be in your way. "

San Lang said, "It's fine. Don't come down. "

Xie Lian couldn't help but ask, "Why can't I come down?" It couldn't be that this youngster liked to hug people and fight, right? Was there a need to do this even if he was looking down on his opponent?

That youngster's reply was only one word. "Dirty."

"… …"

Xie Lian had never imagined that he would actually give such a reason, and that he would even say it so seriously. It was a little funny, but also a little strange that was hard to describe. He only felt his chest inexplicably heat up. He said, "You can't keep hugging me like this, right?"

San Lang said, "That's not necessarily impossible."

Xie Lian had only asked that question as a joke, but San Lang's answer didn't have any intention of joking at all. Xie Lian didn't know what to say next. In the span of a few sentences, the Qie Mo once again tenaciously and unyieldingly launched an attack in the darkness. San Lang was clearly hugging him with both hands, yet he used some unknown method to beat the Qie Mo into retreating again and again. As he retreated, he roared, "That slut let you … …"

Before he could finish roaring, a loud 'dong' rang out, and a huge body fell down with a loud bang. He had actually been beaten to the point where he couldn't get up again and again. Hearing this, Xie Lian said, "San Lang, don't kill him yet. If we want to leave this place, I'm afraid we'll have to interrogate him first. "

Sure enough, San Lang didn't attack again. Standing still, he said, "I originally didn't plan on killing him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have survived until now. "

The bottom of the sinner's pit once again sunk into a deathly silence.

After a moment of silence, Xie Lian said, "San Lang, did you do all this down there?"

Even if nothing could be seen clearly in the darkness, the overwhelming stench of blood and murderous aura, as well as Qie Mo's previous frenzied state of grief and anger, had already clearly outlined what had happened down there. After a moment of silence, Xie Lian finally heard San Lang's answer.

He said, "Yes."

It was an expected answer. After a long while, Xie Lian sighed and said, "How do I say this … …"

He pondered for a moment, and finally, in a sincere and heartfelt tone, he said, "San Lang, the next time you see a pit like this, don't randomly jump in. I can't even stop you. I really don't know what to do. "

As if he hadn't expected Xie Lian to say this, San Lang seemed to choke for a moment.

When he opened his mouth again, his tone was a bit strange as he said, "You're not going to ask anything else?"

Xie Lian said, "What else do you want me to ask?"

San Lang said, "For example, am I human?"

Xie Lian rubbed the space between his eyebrows and said, "About this, I don't think there's a need to ask."

San Lang said, "Hm? There's no need? "

Xie Lian said, "Mhm. Is there a need? Whether you're human or not, it doesn't really matter. "

San Lang said, "Oh?"

Xie Lian crossed his arms in the crook of his arms and said, "When making friends with people, it depends on whether or not they hit it off, and how compatible they are. It doesn't depend on identity. If I like you, even if you're a beggar, I'll still like you. If I hate you, even if you're an emperor, I'll still hate you. Shouldn't it be like this? It couldn't be any more simple logic, so there's no need to ask. "

San Lang laughed out loud and said, "Mhm, what you said really makes a lot of sense."

Xie Lian said, "Right?" He also laughed out loud a few times. As he laughed and laughed, he kept feeling that something wasn't right. Suddenly, he finally reacted.

He had actually been carried by San Lang like this. Moreover, the most frightening thing was that, unknowingly, he had already gotten used to this position!

This was really asking for his life. Xie Lian coughed lightly and said, "That, San Lang, we can talk about this kind of small matter later. Why don't you put me down first? "

San Lang seemed to smile and said, "Wait a moment."

He carried Xie Lian and seemed to walk down for a while before he gently put him down. Xie Lian landed on solid ground and said, "Thank you very much."

San Lang didn't say anything. Xie Lian said his thanks and raised his head to look up.

A bright moon hung in the deep blue sky. It was extremely beautiful, but it was framed in a square sky. It made people think of a frog sitting in a well looking up at the sky.

He tried to urge Ruoxie to leap up again. As expected, Ruoxie was blocked by something invisible in midair and bounced back. He couldn't go up anymore.

San Lang said, "There's an array set up around this sinner's pit."

Xie Lian said, "I know. I'm just trying. If I don't try, I won't give up. I don't know what happened to the other people up there. Did that black-clothed girl sweep them down as well? "

He told San Lang about the girl hanging on the pole suddenly rising up and sweeping a group of soldiers down. After saying a few words, he wanted to take a few steps forward, but he stepped on something. It seemed to be an arm. Xie Lian almost tripped, but he quickly steadied himself. However, San Lang still helped him up and said, "Be careful."

He lightly added, "I said, the ground is very dirty."

Xie Lian also understood what that 'dirty' referred to. He said, "It's nothing. I want to hold a Palm Flame and see what's going on down there. Then I'll make a plan. "

San Lang didn't say anything. At this moment, Ji Mo's voice rang out again from a distance. "If you work for that slut, the millions of resentful souls in our country will curse you!"

Xie Lian turned his head and said in the Half-moon language, "General Ji Mo, the person you're talking about … … who is it?"

Ji Mo hatefully said, "Why bother asking? That demon Taoist! "

Xie Lian said, "Is it that Taoist nun wandering around the city?"

Ji Mo fiercely spat on the ground. It seemed like that was the case. Xie Lian said, "Aren't you loyal to the Half-moon State Preceptor?"

Ji Mo was infuriated by his words and said, "I will never be loyal to her again! I won't forgive that slut! "

What followed was a long string of curses. Ji Mo's emotions were agitated, and he spoke extremely fast. It was so fast that Xie Lian's face was already filled with confusion towards the end. He couldn't understand at all, so he could only stealthily say, "San Lang, San Lang."

San Lang then said, "He's cursing. He's saying that the State Preceptor betrayed their country, opened the city gates to let the Central Plains army massacre the city, and pushed his brothers into this damned pit. He wants to hang her to death a thousand times, ten thousand times. "

Xie Lian hurriedly said, "Wait!"

How could it be like this? There were two things that were completely wrong!

First, the 'Taoist nun wandering around the city' that Xie Lian had just mentioned was referring to the white-clothed woman. But now, Ji Mo repeatedly called the Half-moon State Preceptor a 'slut', and also said that the State Preceptor had pushed his brothers into this damned pit. And just now, when that black-clothed woman swept the soldiers off the high wall, Xie Lian also heard Ji Mo curse at her. Coupled with the last sentence 'hang her to death a thousand times' — — Xie Lian suddenly realized that the people they were talking about didn't seem to be the same person at all.

Second, the Half-moon Country was actually betrayed by the Half-moon State Preceptor?!

Xie Lian interrupted him and said, "General, the Half-moon State Preceptor you're talking about, is she the black-clothed woman hanging on the pole of the sinner pit?"

Ji Mo said, "If it wasn't her, then who else could it be?!"

"… …"

That black-clothed woman hanging on the pole like a corpse was actually the real Half-moon State Preceptor!

But if that was the case, then who was the white-clothed nun leisurely strolling around Half-moon City and saying she wanted to kill them all, and the black-clothed woman walking with her?
