I Am Your Father

does not work.

Thinking in his heart, Li Zhi didn't make a sound, but after hugging Si Jie and saw that he didn't refuse, he first gently patted him back and forth, making a slight rubbing sound of rubbing the cloth, and then patted him with moderate force a few times. .

After repeating these two actions, Li Goudan's mood will basically be stable.

Xin said that for the sake of his grievances, he had done his best, and if he dared to get angry with him, he would not care, Li Zhi curled his lips and patted him vigorously.

It's a pity that the open palm shrank suddenly, and the grip was hanging in the air, suddenly realized something, felt Si Jie's equally stiff body, his scalp was numb, he retreated to the door in the blink of an eye, and ran away quickly.

He had slapped Li Goudan's butt before, but he forgot it was a tiger this time, but he was scared to death, fortunately he ran fast.

In the wind and rain, Li Zhi's footsteps were like flying on the empty road, splashing waves of water, the bone-piercing cool air passed through the gaps in the coir raincoat, and under the fluttering strands of hair was a disturbed face—— —I was worried that when he went back, according to Si Jie's temperament, how would he settle accounts with him.

And as he got closer to the abandoned temple at the head of the village, Li Zhi's expression gradually became serious, and his movements slowed down. After looking around vigilantly, his figure disappeared neatly in an old banyan tree nearly a hundred feet away.

Sure enough, Qu Liu and other divine wine disciples stayed here before, but now they have been taken over by Jiang Rusuan's people, Li Zhi peered through the dense branches and leaves, lying on the top of a tree, holding his breath, and carefully looked around the fire in the temple sitting people.

Most of them were the ones who went to attack him not long ago. Jiang Rusuan was in the center. His hat had been taken off to the side, his head was gray and he didn't say a word. He dared to talk too much, but Qu Liu was not among them.

Could it be that he has been sent back to the Altar of Divine Wine?Li Zhi secretly guessed, and felt that they would not be in such a hurry under such a heavy rain, so he moved a little, and continued to approach quietly for a few minutes.

Now he has moved to the branch extending towards the tiles on the roof of the temple. In order to prevent being discovered, he did not step on it first. Instead, he pulled out a tile near the edge at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, he lowered his head and blocked it with himself. wind and rain.

Looking down from the top, the angle of view really magnified a lot. Li Zhi squinted his eyes, not missing any dark corners, not even the gray and huge censer, and finally, his sight stopped behind the stone sculpture used for worship.

He blinked, fearing that he might be mistaken, and recognized the two blood men who were trying to kidnap Li Goudan as Qu Liu.

In the end, he looked carefully again and again, staring at the man who seemed to be lifeless sitting on the stone platform with his back, only half of his blood-stained back was exposed, especially the purple leather gourd around his waist, he couldn't believe what he saw.

He thought that Qu Liu's situation would not be too good this time, but he never thought that it would be so miserable.

Because apart from the bloodstains that were obviously tortured, the most vicious thing was actually the back of his half-slung head, under the light of the fire, a golden light flickered in Li Zhi's eyes from time to time.

Qu Liu's most important Baihui place was actually sealed with golden needles, and such a solid sealing method, even if he took it out in the future, his original domineering and powerful heavenly stem letter incense would basically be abolished.

23. Lie

Li Zhi took his eyes away from Qu Liu, and couldn't help reminding himself that he came to Qu Liu to ask him some questions, but seeing his current situation, not to mention that his skills are greatly reduced, it doesn't matter whether he is sane or not. Forcibly taking him away will only drag him down, why not go back first, in the long run, no matter how cute this little guy is, he can't afford to take risks for someone he meets by chance.

It's just that Li Zhi didn't move immediately, thinking that he couldn't return empty-handed, so he continued to lie on the top of the temple to observe.

Sure enough, with the sound of the rain that was about to melt into his mind, he finally heard someone speak.

"Senior Jiang," I saw a disciple near the door shivering and raised his head, as if he had been nervous for a long time. At this moment, he couldn't help looking at Jiang Rusuan through the fire, "In case Master Xiao finds out, we did it... "

"Shut up!" The one who suddenly interrupted him was the young disciple who was trampled on the soles of his feet by Li Zhi before, and now he was sitting next to Jiang Rusuan, obviously gaining confidence again, "You just need to be strict with your mouth and insist on it!" He was plotted against while chasing down the remnants of the Demon Sect, so no one will know!"

"That's right," maybe the conversation started, and before the first person could respond, another disciple continued, "Since he came to our branch forum, he has been defiant, holding a chicken feather as an arrow and not talking, every day Doing our own way, not paying attention to us subordinates at all, yet gaining the trust of Fangzhu Xiao, and now relying on the status of altar master to act recklessly, we have tolerated him for a long time, this time we finally found an opportunity, and senior Jiang took his place. We are in the early stage, how can we look forward and backward here?"

As soon as these words fell, voices of echo echoed everywhere, there is no doubt that the "he" they mentioned was Qu Liu.

Li Zhi was surprised that these people had reached such a level of nonsense, and they actually intended to hold the shitpan of murdering Qu Liu on his head. At this moment, he looked carefully at the disciple who was speaking, and recognized that he had met Qu Liu for the first time. On the day of the fight, he did appear beside Qu Liu.

Li Zhi frowned, since they were Qu Liu's subordinates, didn't they also meet Si Jie?

Logically speaking, even if they are jealous of Qu Liu, they should be afraid of Si Jie, how dare they take action easily?

"Besides, we don't think we have wronged him," the disciple said again, "He acted absurdly in order to curry favor with a fake head who doesn't know where he came from. Go alone to find out what happened to those two people, there must be ghosts, and we can also count as cleaning up the house for Master Xiao..."

"..."

Li Zhi didn't listen carefully to what he said later, he just opened his mouth wide, his jaw was about to drop in shock, he wanted to laugh out loud, but he didn't dare to make a sound, he almost got internal injuries.

He felt that he could laugh at Si Jie for a long time with this joke.

Can't help but sigh, the forest is so big, there are indeed all kinds of stupid birds.

But he changed his mind and thought of the scene of Si Jie using Ziwei Qichou to make fish meat that day, no wonder these young disciples with poor eyesight and knowledge misunderstood.

As for Jiang Rusuan, he must have known Si Jie. Coincidentally, he didn't see Si Jie when he arrived. He probably heard those young disciples add fuel and jealousy, and he didn't quite believe that the head of Tianxu, Mingyue Qingfeng, would meet with him. He is a vicious and vicious person mixed together, after all, even Li Zhi himself is still confused.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi cast his eyes on Jiang Rusuan, and saw that he sat gloomyly without saying a word from the beginning to the end, his withered face flickering in the dancing flames.

In order to search for Qu Liu just now, Li Zhi didn't pay too much attention to him, now he saw that his dry and wrinkled palms on his knees seemed to be caressing something slowly, so he fixed his eyes curiously.

Seeing this, Li Zhi was surprised again.

They were actually little wooden figures, not only the two he saw during the day, but three!

Suddenly recalling the half of "last night" mentioned by Jiang Rusuan when he was testing him earlier, he already understood that besides the Li family couple, there must be another person who was killed in the same way. The main reason why the altar sent over.

"But if that person is really a remnant of the Devil's Cult and killed so many people, will he not let us go? Looking at his skill, he is indeed a bit terrifying..." The disciple who was obviously timid at the beginning asked again.

"What are you afraid of? As soon as our Yibang comes out, everyone in the world will know his crimes. No matter how powerful he is, he will definitely not be able to defeat the condemnation of the entire world. If we could destroy his demon sect once seven years ago, there will be a second time! What's more, he Not necessarily the long-lost—uh!"

Jiang Rusuan, who was beside him, suddenly strangled the young disciple who was frothing.

The sinister gaze swept over the disciple's pale face with fright, and after a while, until he was about to die, the temple was once again shrouded in horrific silence, only the desperate sound of his limbs struggling, Jiang Rusuan let go.

He said hoarsely: "Shenjiu never speaks lies. I said he is the leader of the Demon Cult. If he kills someone, he must be. You are swaying around like this. Do you want to make those people laugh at you in the future?"

"...Senior Jiang taught me the lesson."

Seeing that after Jiang Rusuan's sudden attack, everyone shut up again, Li Zhixin suddenly realized that even the rain seemed to be lessened, and he finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

These so-called righteous ways, which are full of impartiality and selflessness, turned out to be easily ruining a person for the sake of gang infighting and jealousy.

Qu Liu, as a stunned young man who was highly valued shortly after he first entered the arena, has long been outraged by the public but doesn't know it. He wholeheartedly pursues the truth in his heart. Unexpectedly, his subordinates find an opportunity, using the excuse that he can't restrain his own belief, to have a relationship with another person. Jiang Rusuan from one faction teamed up to take him down with one blow.

He wanted to be angry, but he respected Si Jie so much, he naturally faced questioning, and refused to reveal a single word of his conversation with them during the day, if he told the truth, maybe he wouldn't be in such a mess.

But right now, Jiang Rusuan can easily cut off the wings of the enemy faction, and at the same time, he can easily release shocking rumors that set off a storm and strengthen the reputation and influence of his faction. Why not do it?

The only thing he needs to care about is that Qu Liu will never wake up, or in other words, Qu Liu is doomed to die.Only in this way can Li Zhi be blamed for everything without anyone noticing.

After thinking this through, Li Zhi's dark eyes suddenly brightened a little.

He couldn't convince himself to save someone for no reason, but if it involved his own interests, it was in line with his style.

Don't hesitate any longer.

A sudden gust of wind, like howling wild ghosts, swarmed in from all directions of the temple, entraining bone-piercing rain, and extinguished the fire that everyone was sitting around in just a split second.

24. Oppression
