Chapter 89 Qilin (VI) All are untrustworthy, huh? ...

After learning the truth about Qilin, everyone was in disbelief.

The deer demon's body was exhausted, as if he also regretted his decision. Chao Jianxue stroked its broken antlers, anger and sadness surged in his heart.

How could it have thought that after giving away those wild fruits, it would have to give away its own blood, its own tendons, and its own heart.

Chao Jianxue had long told it to stay away from people. Even if they were close relatives, they could not be trusted completely.

What's more, they were just a chance encounter.

He looked at the golden pupils of the deer demon, which reflected himself and Yu Wei, and suddenly he felt sad. If one day, he really had to go against Yu Wei... did he

really have to do as Qing Tuliu said, and as Chao Jianxue's other half of the soul used to do, to avoid and strangle the things he was afraid of and unwilling to face in advance?

At this time, the hoarse and panicked voice of the Imperial Master came from below: "They actually... actually destroyed the golden statue of Master Qilin! Master Qilin, why don't you punish these two demons..."

His words stopped abruptly, because the sharp blade passed by his neck, Chao Jianxue hooked his hand, and Ming Qianli flew back into his hand. The Imperial Master, a dry old man who had survived for hundreds of years by evil ways, was so scared that he wet his pants.

"What? Do you want revenge?" Chao Jianxue asked the deer demon.

His voice could be heard by everyone. The national teacher fell to the ground in fear, muttering: "What revenge... The immortal saved me so many times and gave me immortality? For you, it's just a snap of the fingers-"

The king stood behind him and also said quickly: "I am the king of a country! Since Qilin enjoys the offerings of a country, how can it not benefit the country and the people! Why would Qilin be so hard on the offerings! Is it dissatisfied with the sacrifice last time? If a mere child is not enough, I will offer you more sacrifices!"

He still thought that Qilin was dissatisfied with the last human sacrifice.

The king has always been arrogant and conceited, as if he is already a demigod and is not of the same species as the sacrificed people.

Chao Jianxue Shen frowned and was about to denounce the king for being inhuman on behalf of the deer monster. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sharp female voice suddenly sounded, like thunder from the ground.

She rushed over, pulled out the knife of the guard beside the king, and stabbed it fiercely into the king's chest.

It was like stabbing a fruit, and it crashed in with a puff.

Blood spurted out three feet.

Empress Ming roared and drew her sword, thrusting in once more, and once more.

Everyone was shocked. The fishy smell in the summer night became stronger and stronger, and they were sweating all over.

The king of Qilin Kingdom fell so heavily in a pool of blood.

The blood of Qilin gave the power of immortality, but it did not have the power of real immortality.

The state teacher slumped on the ground, and the splashing dirty blood covered his head.

The ghost spirit attacked again.

This time, under the pervasive evil spirit of the deer demon, everyone saw the long-tongued soul-snatching messenger coming from underground, and their legs trembled with fear.

The sound of chains clattering, a ghost hooked the king's neck, dragging out an illusory shadow, the shadow struggled desperately and waved his hands, trying to scream, but no one could hear his voice anymore. He was dragged into the unfathomable vortex underground.

The other ghost did not stop, and still floated towards the little princess who was lying on the ground.

The deer demon suddenly moved. It swooped down and blocked the ghost's way, but the chain had already caught the little princess. With a slight pull, a light shadow floated out of the body.

The deer demon opened its mouth and bit, and actually dragged the little princess's soul.

Even the ghost's face showed disbelief. The deer demon burst into tears and tried its best to drag the little princess back to its original body.

Chao Jianxue flew to its side, raised his hand to hold its mouth, and sighed: "Let her go, she's dead." She

died a year ago. No matter how much you use your demon power to keep her, it's futile. It's better to let her go.

"Her death is not your fault. Let her go so that she can continue to reincarnate."

The deer demon's body trembled violently, and finally, with a snap, a golden tear fell on the little princess's soul, and a small golden flower bloomed.

The ghost was surprised and uttered a rare sound: "This tear will ensure that she will be rich, prosperous, and happy in the next life."

The deer demon reluctantly let her go.

The two ghosts took the soul and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Empress Ming held the little princess with an empty look in her eyes, as if she was also taken away. She walked back to the palace in a daze.

She killed the king, but no one dared to speak at this moment.

One person took this opportunity to slowly crawl out of the palace. Just as he climbed to the threshold, a white dress blocked him.

Yu Wei stood silently in front of the national teacher, without any expression, but made the national teacher more trembling, curled up like a rat ladybug.

Chao Jianxue asked the deer demon again: "Do you want revenge?"

For your own selfish desires, you have to pay with your horns, tendons and blood, and imprison you in the palace for a hundred years. Do you want revenge?

After a moment, the deer demon shook his head.

Chao Jianxue frowned in dissatisfaction: "Why?"

The deer demon remained silent, no longer the light and lively deer demon before.

After a moment, it said, "I promised Master that I would not harm anyone. But I failed. I harmed people. I thought I was doing good things, but it turned out to be helping evil..."

It was talking about the little princess. Although it was not the one who did evil, it was indirectly responsible for her death and indirectly harmed people.

The deer demon collapsed, as if his heart had died after he figured everything out. The golden demon power gradually faded away.

It bowed to Chao Jianxue again and turned to the forest where it was born and raised.

It turned out that the Qilin was not a Qilin, and the national teacher should not be a national teacher.

The stunned people finally reacted and saw that the Ming Niangniang Palace was suddenly ablaze, and even the beams and tiles were on fire.

The sound of the water running away made people scream and run. Everyone hurriedly carried water. When the fire was put out, it was already a charred ground. The golden Qilin statue next to it was also blackened, and suddenly collapsed at a certain moment, flowing into a ground of black water.

Everyone was shocked and went to look for the figures of the two immortals last night, but they could not find them.

When the people woke up, they found that the Qilin statue, which symbolized the country's prosperity, had disappeared overnight, not to mention the sudden death of the king, which made the whole matter more thought-provoking.

In the dense forest leaves, Chao Jianxue pushed aside the branches in front of her and moved as fast as the wind.

Yu Wei called out from behind him, "Senior Brother!"

Chao Jianxue was anxious. He stopped suddenly, turned to Yu Wei and said, "I'm angry."

"Angry for the deer demon?"

Chao Jianxue shook his head: "I'm angry with it too. It has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years and accumulated demonic power, but it was destroyed because it blindly believed in humans. In the end, it even let the national master go. I can't swallow this."

Yu Wei looked at him seriously and said soothingly, "All its choices are in line with its original intention and its Tao."

"The original intention of doing good deeds? If it wants to do good deeds, it should stay away from humans! If it gets close to humans, it will end up like this, being deceived and fooled around by humans. Humans are not trustworthy. Who knows when the other party will stab it with a knife..." As he spoke, Chao Jianxue stopped talking because he remembered what he had done to Yu Wei before.

So it seems that even he himself has impure intentions at times.

He was completely outspoken and exposed the dark side of his thoughts to Yu Wei. He did subconsciously feel that no one could be trusted, including Yu Wei.

Chao Jianxue stopped talking and walked forward in silence with his head down.

Yu Wei held him, his palms were cold: "Not everyone is untrustworthy."

Chao Jianxue uttered a nasal "hmm" and changed the subject in a muffled voice: "Find it as soon as possible. It looks like it's about to die."

They searched for the remaining evil spirit all the way, but the result was not good. They actually found a farmer's house in the mountains. Chao Jianxue

took Yu Wei to hide in the forest. Looking out of the window, he first saw a man fetching water. The man's cheeks were sunken and he kept coughing, as if he had tuberculosis. But there was a dark air above his head, and it was obvious that he was about to die of illness. He fetched water and walked to a wooden bed with weak steps.

Looking closely again, the person lying on the bed, dying, was a child of about six or seven years old, sucking the water that was passed to his lips.

Chao Jianxue saw at a glance that the child was the incarnation of the deer demon.

Why did it run to the side of people again? He wanted to pull the deer demon out of the house, and just as he rolled up his sleeves to take action, he was held down by Yu Wei.

He said, "When it is necessary, it will not be too late for you to go again."

Chao Jianxue gritted his teeth, climbed up the tree and sat down. Yu Wei saw that he was sulking, so he also came up and sat side by side with him.

There was another person in the room, the man's wife, who said in a reproachful tone: "Why did you pick up such a child from the mountains? The family has no money, do you still want to raise him? Send him away when you go to buy medicine tomorrow."

The man said timidly: "I asked, he has no father and no mother, very pitiful..."

"Do you want to?"

"Since we met, it is fate."

The wife rolled her eyes and said: "You need to buy medicine for your cough, and your family doesn't have so much extra money to raise a child."

The man hesitated for a while, and finally did not speak. His wife also did not speak and blew out the candle.

Chao Jianxue breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Wait until they send the deer monster back down the mountain, I want to take it to the monster realm."

Yu Wei nodded: "Okay."

The two closely followed the actions in the cabin, but the next day, the deer monster woke up, opened his eyes and said something to the man, which made Chao Jianxue angry again.

It said, "I am a demon. My heart blood can cure your cough. Can you take care of me for five days? I will repay you, but I will not give you my heart blood."

Chao Jianxue felt that there was something wrong with its brain and it wanted to die. For the man, this was undoubtedly a huge temptation. Anyway, it was weak now. As long as he took its heart blood, it could be cured. Besides, the other party was a demon, so there was no need to be soft-hearted.

Was the deer demon seeking death?

Chao Jianxue couldn't help it, so he sent a voice to the deer demon and said to it, "Do you know what you are doing?"

The deer demon opened his eyes and said, "I know. I just don't want to accept it. I don't think all people are bad. At the beginning, that person really kept his promise to build a statue for me seriously, but he changed later. But I believe that not everyone will change. This person saved me, so let me gamble again. Anyway, my demon power is about to dissipate. If I lose the bet, I won't want to think about it anymore."

"Too stupid! Too stupid!" Chao Jianxue scolded it, but he obviously couldn't wake up a demon who was seeking death.

He crossed his arms in anger, determined that if the man attacked the deer demon, he would do it.

Yu Wei took in his expression and said faintly, "I don't think he would do it."

Chao Jianxue couldn't help but say, "You're just daydreaming."

Yu Wei said, "The good and evil of a person is just a matter of one thought, but everyone has a way to stick to. This man has a good nature, it just depends on one thought."

Chao Jianxue didn't comment on this.

He hid in the forest, determined to save this ignorant deer demon in time.

Five days passed in a flash. During this period, the man made several moves, and the deer demon remained unconscious. Finally, it was the last day.

Another night came.

The man approached the sleeping deer demon with a knife. Chao Jianxue thought, it's true.

One thought is the most unbearable gamble. Yu Wei said it easily, but you must know that when making many choices, it is the one thought that prevails.

The tip of the knife was raised.

Chao Jianxue jumped off the branch, and Ming Qianli appeared in his hand.

Yu Wei held his sleeve: "Brother, wait a little longer."

"What are you waiting for? Didn't you see that he was about to kill the deer demon?" Chao Jianxue said, "Little brother, don't deceive yourself..."

He didn't say anything else, because over there, the man slowly put his hand down again, put away the knife and put it aside.

"..." Chao Jianxue was speechless.

The night faded away and the daylight came on.

Yu Wei smiled faintly: "Brother, I won."

The deer demon also won the bet.
