After seeing Zhuo Xingyang's swordsmanship, Luo Qi naturally understood that the person coming was of high status and was not comparable to ordinary newcomers.
Luo Qi also remembered that she had personally handed the poisonous food to the person in front of her, so there was no point in quibbling.
Luo Qi said: "In this case, if you don't say secret words in front of people, there is no antidote, and your life will be saved."
Luo Qi put down the sword in her hand and closed her eyes.
Xingyang asked: "Whose are you?"
Luo Qi said: "Do you think I will tell you? Ha, if you want an antidote, it is impossible. I advise you to give up this idea."
The edge of Xingyang's sword pierced Luo Qi's chest, half an inch deep. Xingyang asked: "People from Shimen?"
Luo Qi felt sudden pain, but didn't answer a word.
Xingyang's sword advanced a little further: "Hand over the antidote and I will spare your life."
The helmsman sent by Tianyun Mountain heard the news and rushed over immediately. The Selection Society will never allow any loss of life. This is an ironclad rule.
At this moment, Luo Qi instantly stepped forward and pushed forward, her chest deep into the tip of the sword, and her blood instantly stained her red robe.
Chao Si, the helmsman, happened to see this scene and pulled out the Xingyang sword from Luo Qi's chest, causing Luo Qi to fall to the ground and die.
The men led by Chao Si hurried forward and put their fingers on Luo Qi's neck artery. They reported back: "Leader, the man is dead."
Chao Si asked: "What's going on? Explain."
Xingyang stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Commander, this person poisoned and murdered me first. I drew my sword and asked for the antidote later. If the man dies, I am responsible and willing to accept the punishment. However, I have no intention of taking his life. He
I'm bent on seeking death, but I haven't returned my sword yet, and it's already too late. Also, one of my brothers has been seriously poisoned, and I hope the helmsman will come to rescue him."
Chao Si: "Lead the way."
Xingyang brought Chao Si to Xiao Qi's side, and Shisan was waiting for Xingyang's antidote. Unfortunately, Luo Qi did not reveal the whereabouts of the antidote before she died.
Xingyang said: "Master, I don't know the name of the poison. Please take him away and rescue him in time."
Being taken away at this time is equivalent to voluntarily giving up the selection meeting. Once you go down the mountain, you will never come back.
Xiao Qi struggled to sit up and said tremblingly: "No, don't take me out. I don't want to give up."
Nie Han shouted anxiously: "Xiao Qi, you don't want your life! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Thirteen ordered: "Hel the person up."
Thirteen was confident that he would use his remaining inner strength to suppress the child's toxicity, and it would not be a problem to persist until the selection meeting was over. Xingyang stopped him, he couldn't bear to watch the gang leader do this. If his inner strength was completely drained, he would be damaging his own meridians.
.
Xingyang lowered his head and said: "Eldest brother, forgive me, but I can't obey my orders."
Xingyang turned his head and bowed deeply: "Leader, please help brother Xiaoqi, use your inner strength to help him!"
Chao Si looked at Xiao Qi's painful appearance, walked forward, and briefly checked Xiao Qi's pulse. The toxicity really didn't wait any longer. Chao Si thought about it, and it was true that he could suppress the toxicity with his own internal strength, but at most he could
Suppressed by 50%.
Chao Si simply couldn't achieve Xingyang's ability to use a sword as usual.
Chao Si said: "I'll try to help the person up."
Xingyang said: "Thank you very much for the helmsman."
Nie Han helped Xiao Qi up, and Chao Si sat cross-legged behind him. Using his internal strength, he moved his hands together.
Chao Si's internal energy was continuously extracted from the body, and Xiao Qi's frown finally relaxed slightly.
It didn't take long for Chao Si's face to gradually lose color, and he finally had no choice but to stop.
A disciple from Tianyun Mountain came forward to help: "Chief Commander, how are you?"
Chao Si looked slightly pale and shook his head helplessly: "50%, we can only suppress 50%. Take the person away, we can't let him stay here anymore like this."
At this time, Chang Shisan had already sat behind Xiao Qi.
Xingyang's eyes widened. When did the gang leader come over? How can this be done? Xingyang stepped forward and grabbed Shisan's arm. Shisan didn't give Xingyang any chance and directly threw Xingyang away.
Xingyang staggered, but before he could stand still, Chang Shisan had already begun to send internal energy to Xiao Qi.
Xingyang could only watch dryly from the side, unable to help at all. At this time, the poison was in his body, and it didn't matter how many moves he fought. If he used his internal power, it would definitely trigger the poison.
Chang Shisan's face became more and more ugly, but Xiao Qi's face became brighter and brighter.
Thirteen stopped, the poison had been suppressed by 70%, and Xiaoqi would no longer have any problems using force normally.
Xingyang rushed forward and wiped the sweat from Thirteen's head, worried to death.
"Brother, brother, are you okay?"
Thirteen Yun Danfeng said lightly: "Nothing."
Nie Han looked at these two people and his heart beat: Who are these two people? Why are they so capable?
Chao Si was even more suspicious. He understood best how much internal strength was needed to suppress the toxicity. Although the person in front of him was only suppressed by 20%, as a participant in the selection meeting, it was already valuable.
He didn't know that before this, this person had already made merit for two people.
However, there is still one unsolved matter at this time: Luo Qi’s death!
They fought privately and demanded the antidote, resulting in Luo Qi's death. Although her death was not due to Xing Yang's wishes, Xing Yang's responsibility for Luo Qi's death cannot be evaded.
Moreover, Luo Qi died in public, and everyone saw with their own eyes that Xing Yang's sword pierced Luo Qi's chest. The bad impact is self-evident.
A punishment is what Xingyang must bear.
No mercy will be tolerated at the selection meeting. Just like the Tianyunshan sect's gang rules, one must establish authority in public places.
Chao Si stared at Xingyang and said, "Name?"
"Zhuo Twelve."
Chao Si said: "Twenty lashes, can you take it?"
"Clothes!"
Chao Si said: "If someone comes, take them away."
"Wait!" Thirteen stood up and took a step forward.
"The helmsman, everything Zhuo Twelve did was my intention. The twelfth brother has been poisoned into his body, and he will never be able to bear the whipping. I request that I take the punishment for the twelfth brother, and I also ask the helmsman to do it."
"Brother!" Xingyang shouted anxiously. How could the gang leader accept the punishment for his subordinates?
What's more important is that the gang leader's internal strength has been exhausted, and his level of weakness is comparable to that of Xing Yang.
Twenty lashes, how much torture you have to endure! How can your body bear it?
Xingyang ignored the stern look the leader of the gang gave him. He quickly said: "Leader, my elder brother has a bad mind. Don't listen to his nonsense. This is all my idea. I accept the punishment. Take me away as soon as possible."
Walk."
Thirteen weighed it up: Xingyang's poison can't stand the fight, and his body is weak at this time. Since neither of them is suitable to bear it, of course he has to bear it as the eldest brother. The more this time, the more important it is to protect his brother.
Behind you.
"Get over here." Thirteen ordered Xingyang.
Xingyang refused to give in: "Brother, no matter what, I won't listen to you this time! I will punish you no matter what you do when I go back, but I won't give in today!"
Chang Shisan paused for a moment, raised his eyes and said solemnly to Xingyang: "Protecting you is what I should do and what I must do. If you don't let me stand in front of you at this time, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. Do you understand?
If you understand, don't stop me."
Xingyang looked at the gang leader's serious eyes, frowned, and swallowed what he wanted to say.
Chang Shisan patted Xingyang on the shoulder: "Don't worry, just twenty lashes are really nothing."
Unknowingly, Xingyang's eyes were moist.
This person who beats and scolds his subordinates all day long without giving them a smile, cares about them the most in his heart. The gang leader does not know how to express or talk about his care, but he always steps forward at critical moments.
