No need for Yuchen, now I want to peel off the fox skin of Hu Jinyue! How could he be so stupid? He is simply embarrassing the vixen!
This incident alarmed Shangxian. Before Shangxian came to find him, I thought I should tell Yuchen about this so that he could be prepared.
I glared at Hu Jinyue, and then shouted Yuchen's name.
After waiting for a while, he didn't come.
Hu Jinyue looked at me and guessed, "Isn't the Third Master already captured?"
I was surprised, "Is Shangxianxian so fast?"
Hu Jinyue's eyes wandered and she said with a guilty conscience, "I came back with Fang Xian.
"
"You!" I was so angry that Hu Jinyue was speechless, "You brought them back to arrest Yuchen!"
Hu Jinyue quickly waved her hands and said that he didn't, that he was just following Fang Xian on the way, and that he had absolutely no intention of harming Yuchen.
What’s the use of saying it now!
I turned around and went to the incense hall and offered incense to Yuchen. When I saw the incense drifting into Yuchen's memorial tablet, I breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that nothing had happened to Yuchen.
I lit three more incense sticks, sang the song "Bang Bingjue", and asked Yuchen to get up.
But after singing it all over again, Yuchen still didn't come.
Was he really taken away?
My heart lifted, I thought about it and said, "Hu Jinyue, take me somewhere, go now!"
Fortunately, it's the middle of the night and I'm not afraid of being seen.
Hu Jinyue transformed into a big red-furred fox. I rode on his back, and Hu Jinyue took me high into the sky.
On the way, Hu Jinyue did not forget to ask me for credit, saying that the immortal family rarely takes mortals to fly, because mortals eat whole grains and their bodies are filled with turbid qi, which makes them extremely heavy.
Those with a lower level of cultivation cannot lead people to fly.
He was the only one who listened to me and took me flying even though he knew how tiring it would be.
I was worried about Yuchen's safety and ignored him.
Arriving at the village during the day.
Because she was afraid of being seen, Hu Jinyue took me down halfway up the Niutou Mountain.
"Brother Ma, what are we doing here?" Hu Jinyue asked.
As I walked down the mountain, I told Hu Jinyue about the discovery of Long Yue's body.
If Yuchen had not been arrested, he would most likely be here now.
My current mood is very contradictory. I just hope that I can guess correctly and find Yuchen smoothly.
I also hope that I guessed wrong and Yuchen did not refuse to answer my call because of Long Yue.
When I was about to go down the mountain, I suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from the woods on one side.
I glanced at Hu Jinyue.
Hu Jinyue's face turned pale and she said nervously, "Yes, it's the Third Master and Fang Xian.
"
Hearing this, I ran towards the woods.
Hu Jinyue caught up with me and said, "Brother Ma, you must stay calm and don't contradict the immortal.
Shangxian wants to arrest the Third Master, but we can't handle this matter.
We can find the real culprit and clear Mr. San’s name!”
While we were talking, we ran into the woods.
Not far away, in an open space in the middle of the woods, Yuchen held a silver whip and faced off against three young men who looked to be in their mid-twenties.
The three men are all dressed in ancient costumes, wearing crescent-white robes. Their black hair is spread behind them like brocade, their faces are like crown jewels, and their expressions are indifferent.
It gives people a feeling of being upright and looking down on the world.
"Snake demon, wait back with me!" a man ordered.
Yuchen said, "The fact that the essence of the Xian family has been sucked has nothing to do with me.
"
"We will investigate whether this was your fault.
Snake demon, follow us obediently and don't resist.
"As he spoke, the man stretched out his hand, and a rope emitting golden light was wrapped around Yuchen.
Yuchen grabbed the rope and put on a confrontational posture, but his attitude was still polite and said, "I can't go back with you, so I hope to go to Xianxing for convenience.
As a thank you, I will help Shangxian find the real culprit regarding the Xian family's Jingyuan.
"
"No thief can say that he has stolen anything.
"Another man said, "Don't talk nonsense to him, just tie him up and take him back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword appeared in the man's hand and he struck at Yuchen.
All three of them are immortals from above and have reached the Great Perfection in cultivation.
Moreover, it was three against one. Yuchen was beaten so hard that he almost lost the ability to parry.
When I saw Yuchen being injured by Shangxian, I rushed over anxiously.
Hu Jinyue grabbed me and said, "Brother Ma, you don't know magic, what's the use of you going there!"
I heard the same thing.
I said, "Then go and help Yuchen!"
Hu Jinyue shook her head like a rattle and said very timidly, "I don't dare.
"
I shouldn't have counted on him.
I rolled my eyes at him and prepared to ask for help.
Hu Jinyue stopped me again, "My younger brother Ma, Huang Fugui and the others are better than me, but they don't dare to make a mistake in front of Shangxian.
After all, everyone wants to achieve righteousness. If you offend the people above you now, you will be afraid of being judged in the future.
"
"Then I'll invite the ghost fairy!" Just call Xiao Yuan.
Hu Jinyue said, "Ghosts and immortals are even worse.
The ghost generation is naturally shorter than the fairy generation. When the ghost immortal comes, he is beaten to the point of being knocked out of his wits by the upper level immortal, but you don’t even bother to reason with him.
"
I can also see that Hu Jinyue just doesn’t want me to help Yuchen!
I immediately became angry, "Hu Jinyue, what do you mean, you just want Shangxian to arrest Yuchen..."
"Brother Ma, look, the Third Master has run away!" Hu Jinyue interrupted me.
I quickly turned around and looked over.
Yuchen's silver whip wrapped around the neck of a Shangfang Immortal. In order to protect fellow Taoists, the other two Shangfang Immortals did not dare to attack Yuchen again.
The clothes on Yuchen's body were cut with numerous cuts. Where the cuts were larger, you could see the deep wounds inside the clothes. The skin and flesh were turned outwards, and bright red blood beads rolled down one by one.
Yuchen's face turned pale and he gasped slightly, "Let me go!"
Immortal Shangfang said, "Snake demon, don't be stubborn! Now wait for me to go back. I'm just accepting the investigation. When the truth is found out, you can leave safely.
Since you said you didn’t do it and you have a clear conscience, then why don’t you dare to go back with us!”
"Snake demon, if you run away, you are absconding out of fear of crime.
If someone from above is sent to arrest you, you won't be as easy to talk to as I am.
Even if we kill you on the spot, that's still possible!" Another said, "Let go of Bai Ping and come back with us. We will treat you as if you never resisted.
"
Yuchen ignored these advices and tightened his grip on the silver whip.
Gongxian's face suddenly showed pain as the silver whip was wrapped around his neck.
Seeing this, Shangfangxian hurriedly said, "We will let you go!"
Yuchen breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly retreated to the foot of a big tree and leaned over to hug someone!
Only then did I see that Long Yue's body had been lying under a big tree behind Yuchen.
During the fight, Yuchen was forced to have no way out, and he did not take a step back toward the big tree. He was probably worried that the sword had no eyes and would hurt Long Yue's body.
And now he would rather be misunderstood that he was absconding out of fear of crime, so he wanted to leave, probably also to place Long Yue's body.
He was taken away by Fangxian, so no one would care about Long Yue's body.
A corpse is more important to him than himself!
My heart ached, so I threw away Hu Jinyue's hand and ran out, "Yuchen!"
Yuchen was holding Long Yue and was about to leave. When he heard me calling him, he stopped and looked sideways at me.
I said, "You follow Fang Xian, and I will keep Long Yue's body safe.
I promise that when you come back, you will see Long Yue intact.
"
Yuchen ignored me. He turned around and walked into the woods with Long Yue's body in his arms.
"Yu Chen! I can swear that I won't hurt Long Yue, so you can just hand her body over to me, okay!" I yelled and chased after her.
But when I chased into the woods, I found that Yuchen was nowhere to be seen.
Yuchen left with Long Yue's body.
I can't tell whether I should be sad or angry.
It was like I was dreaming when Yuchen and I were so sweet a few days ago!
I returned to the clearing.
Hu Jinyue was talking to three immortals.
With a flattering smile on his face, he sweetly said that it was hard work for Fang Xian to come down, and that Yuchen was ignorant and asked them to give Yuchen another chance and not to report this matter.
At the end of the story, Hu Jinyue brought out his eldest brother again and begged the three Shangxian immortals not to make this matter a big deal for the sake of his eldest brother.
"I would like to thank my three elder brothers in advance. I asked my eldest brother to treat these three elder brothers to a drink.
"
Brother Hu Jinyue had a certain status in Shangfangxian. The three Shangfangxians thought about it and sold it to Hu Jinyue.
After seeing off the three Fangxian, Hu Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief and said to me, "Brother Ma, we have to find the third master quickly and let him go back with Fangxian.
Otherwise, if he is deemed to be absconding out of fear of crime, the only way waiting for the third master is to be interrogated and executed.
"
Hu Jinyue wanted Shangxian to take Yuchen back, but it turned out to be for Yuchen's good.
I nodded, thinking that after Yuchen had arranged Long Yue's body, he would come back.
But in the next few days, no matter how I invited Yuchen, he never showed up again.
In the blink of an eye, it’s July 15th, the day of the Ghost Festival.
