Pawn Crossing the River

Under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for Qi Xuansu to hurt Diswein, even if Diswein was so weak that he only had the strength of a count.

Even if Qi Xuansu injured Diswen, judging from the terrifying recovery ability of the sinners, it would be like cutting off the water with a knife, and he would be able to recover in an instant.

However, the "higher black blood" caused too much damage to Diswen, and even without external influence, the skin and flesh on Diswen's body had begun to fall off on its own, and it also made him lose the ability to recover and transform.

In addition, Qi Xuansu used Arthur's high-purity holy water. Although it cannot be compared with the "high-grade black blood", it is also a weapon specially designed to target sinners.

Under such various conditions, Qi Xuansu successfully "cut open" Diswen's backside.

While Qi Xuansu drew his sword and retreated, he stuffed the "Fengyan Jiajiu" that had been injected with true energy into Diswen's chest through the wound left by the dagger.

The next moment, the "Fengyan Jiajiu" exploded, and Diswen turned directly into a human-shaped torch. His entire chest was blown into a hole, including the heart, which symbolized the source of the sinner's power.

Qi Xuansu glanced at his dagger. Diswen's blood and the holy water on the sword were absolutely incompatible. They hissed and turned into smoke.

In the raging fire, Diswin's figure became lighter and lighter. At first it was a silhouette, and then it turned into a vague outline. Then only a few simple lines remained, completely disintegrating, and unwillingly disappeared into the flames.

In the end, only a circle of scorched black marks remained where Diswin stood, and even obvious cracks appeared on the stone ground. The Duke of Sinners left nothing behind, everything was turned into nothingness with the fire.

By this time, Qi Xuansu was the only one left standing.

Lingquan Ziji sat on the ground and witnessed the entire process of Qi Xuansu killing Diswen. He couldn't help but sigh: "Deacon Qi is brave and careful, and the deputy hall master has a keen eye for people. Both of them are young and promising."

"Chief Lingquan is too generous." Qi Xuansu put away his dagger and walked towards Lingquanzi, "What should we do now?"

Lingquanzi said: "You don't have to worry about me. I'm just out of strength. After I take the 'Yi Qi Pill', I will recover quickly. The key is the deputy hall leader. She should have the healing 'Purple Yang Pill' in her sumeru." , you go and help her take the medicine. Her Xumi object is the beads on her wrist, you can just input the zhenqi."

Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment and came to Zhang Yuelu's side.

Zhang Yuelu withstood Diswen's life-threatening blow from the front, and her back was placed on the wall, creating a bowl-shaped depression full of spider web cracks, and she also temporarily fainted.

Qi Xuansu looked at Zhang Yuelu and saw that even though she was in a coma, she still frowned slightly, her face was tense, and she was clutching the "photo paper" that had returned to its original appearance in her hand. Judging from Qi Xuansu's experience, Zhang Yuelu should not be in danger of his life, but he was still seriously injured.

Qi Xuansu stretched out his hand to hold down the beads on Zhang Yuelu's wrist, and slowly input the true energy.

After about a few breaths, a portal slowly opened in front of Qi Xuansu.

Behind the door is a cabinet-sized space, which contains weapons, books, maps, telescopes, elixirs, clothing, etc., which are classified into categories. To Qi Xuansu's surprise, there is also a medium-sized makeup box, which should be I put some jewelry, rouge and other things.

Qi Xuansu did not touch anything else, but took out a three-inch-high jade bottle. It was crystal clear and the round pills in it were vaguely visible. To outsiders, this move seems like taking something out of thin air. Then Qi Xuansu poured out a lavender elixir and looked at Zhang Yuelu's tightly closed lips, feeling a little worried.

He subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Lingquanzi, only to see that Lingquanzi had already taken the elixir and was sitting cross-legged with his five hearts in the sky, his eyes closed.

Qi Xuansu sighed helplessly, secretly saying he was offended, and reached out to pinch Zhang Yuelu's cheeks, forcefully opened her mouth, and fed the pill in his hand.

Fortunately, the "Purple Yang Pill" melts in the mouth, and there is no need to swallow it, nor does it need to be deliberately refined. The medicinal power can travel throughout the body along the twelve main meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians, making Zhang Yuelu's body faintly filled with purple aura. Transpiration.

But Zhang Yuelu still had no intention of waking up.

At this moment, Lingquanzi slowly stood up.

Qi Xuansu said: "Master Lingquan, the deputy hall master still hasn't woken up."

Lingquanzi did not respond, but went straight to Arthur, fed him some pills, and then said: "Then I'll trouble you, Deacon Qi, to carry or carry the deputy hall master out."

Qi Xuansu was startled.

At this moment, Lingquanzi and Arthur had already supported each other and walked out. Arthur also very "considerately" held Qi Xuansu's two swords and the "Blue Bird Gun" together.

Qi Xuansu secretly cursed his mistake, but he had no choice but to carry Zhang Yuelu on his back. However, considering that his back was pressed against two soft objects, Qi Xuansu still held Zhang Yuelu in his arms.

When Qi Xuansu walked to the rotunda, Zhang Yuelu turned around and saw that he was being held in Qi Xuansu's arms. He was not shy at all, but asked: "Where is Diswen?"

Qi Xuansu was not modest, and roughly told the story of how he killed Diswen.

Zhang Yuelu nodded: "Tian Yuan did not disappoint me, and I did not misjudge the person."

Qi Xuansu said: "I took a look before I left. There was nothing in that dungeon. These losers are very poor. The money they robbed may have been used to buy people."

There was still a slave trade in Wugoshanli, so Qi Xuansu said that as for the fate of those slaves, they probably became food for this group of criminals.

Zhang Yuelu said "hmm" and said softly: "Let me down."

Qi Xuansu stopped and put down Zhang Yuelu as instructed.

As a result, Zhang Yuelu couldn't stand firmly, and Qi Xuansu reached out to support him.

She could only half-lean on Qi Xuansu, frowning slightly.

Qi Xuan neither moved nor moved, and his body was slightly stiff.

Zhang Yuelu closed his eyes again: "I feel very weak."

Qi Xuansu was silent for a long time and held back three words: "Shall I hug you?"

In fact, Qi Xuansu is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to speak or behave when he sees a woman. The key is that Zhang Yuelu is still his boss, which is very embarrassing.

"Okay." Zhang Yuelu said in a low voice.

Qi Xuansu picked up Zhang Yuelu in his arms again, behaved and didn't look sideways.

Zhang Yuelu simply didn't open his eyes or speak, huddled his hands in front of his chest, his breathing gradually became steady, and he seemed to have fallen asleep again.

Qi Xuansu sighed helplessly and walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Lingquanzi and Arthur who were no longer visible.

Returning to the castle on the ground, Lingquanzi and Arthur were waiting for him. Seeing Qi Xuansu hugging Zhang Yuelu, Arthur smiled narrowly, saying everything that only men understand.

Qi Xuansu coughed lightly and asked, "The head of Lingquan?"

Lingquanzi was mature and prudent, and did not say anything special. He said: "I will arrange for people to search this place again to prevent any omissions, especially if it concerns the ancient immortal. Don't be careless. As for Deacon Qi, you and the deputy hall master will return to Wu first. Geshan leaves the city, and I will meet you after I finish handling the matters here."

Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "Okay."

…

Zhang Yuelu felt as if his body was floating in the clouds, and as if he was bobbing in the water. He felt indescribably uncomfortable inside.

She opened her eyelids with difficulty and found that she was lying on a bed. From the corner of her eye, she vaguely saw Qi Xuansu sitting on the stool beside the bed, with his back to her.

Zhang Yuelu asked softly: "Where is this?"

Qi Xuansu turned around: "You're awake, this is the city lord's palace in Wugo Shanli."

Zhang Yuelu exhaled a breath of turbid air, like a person who has been holding his breath for a while, and seemed to have removed a big stone from his chest. He sat up and asked, "How long have I been sleeping?"

Qi Xuansu took out his pocket watch and took a look: "It's about two hours since we left Cimut Fort."

Zhang Yuelu was silent for a moment, then asked a little embarrassedly: "Did you carry me back?"

Qi Xuansu coughed lightly: "Mu Jin is not here."

Zhang Yuelu said: "Fortunately, she is not here. If you were replaced by her, we would have been wiped out this time. Tianyuan, I really did not misjudge the person. Also, don't say anything about praise or praise. If it works, it will work. If it doesn't work, it will work." It just doesn’t work, I’m not complimenting you.”

Qi Xuansu simply asked directly, "In that case, can I be promoted to a sixth-grade Taoist priest?"

Zhang Yuelu hesitated for a moment: "I can ask you for credit. Whether or not to approve it depends on Ziweitang's opinion."

Qi Xuansu asked tentatively: "Are we going to skip all the personnel?"

"What personnel matter?" Zhang Yuelu was startled, then reacted and glared at Qi Xuansu, "I said, I don't like this kind of normality."

Qi Xuansu was quite angry when he saw Zhang Yuelu's eyebrows raised, and quickly explained: "I don't like it either. Who is willing to give the peace money in his pocket to others? It's just that Buddhist disciples like Ananda and Kassapa would ask for personnel services. We and others How can a mortal be exempt from vulgarity?"

Zhang Yuelu snorted: "In short, if it doesn't work, it won't work. Don't mention it again."

"Yes." Qi Xuansu said obediently, "I will obey the orders of the deputy hall master."

Zhang Yuelu was still angry, but he didn't like Qi Xuansu anymore. He said with a straight face: "I said, don't call me deputy hall master in private. Is there a third person at this time?"

Qi Xuansu secretly thought that women are difficult to take care of, but he didn't show it on his face and said casually: "Okay, my Tantai girl."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Xuansu felt something was wrong. After adding the word "mine", it seemed a little too intimate.

Zhang Yuelu also noticed this, a slightly suspicious blush appeared on his face for the first time, and he said nothing.

No matter how majestic she is, she is still an inexperienced young woman and cannot truly be completely indifferent.

Qi Xuansu changed the subject: "How is your injury?"

Zhang Yuelu also wanted to escape from this embarrassing atmosphere and immediately took over the conversation: "It's nothing serious, just rest for a few days."

Qi Xuansu nodded and said, "That's good. You are the backbone. Everyone hopes that you will recover from your injuries soon."

Zhang Yuelu said "hmm".

When Lingquanzi came to the door, he happened to hear such an extremely serious conversation, and couldn't help but secretly wonder if he was overthinking it.
