Chapter Twenty-Seven: Why Suffer?


As the night passed, a rising sun rose from the horizon and spread light throughout the land of Yunqin.

That night, the people of the whole provincial capital heard the neighing of war horses, the sound of dense iron hooves like rain, and the sound of the wheels of the carriage rolling.

Many people thought that the front-line war was tight, and the town defenders were being mobilized on a large scale, but when it was dawn, many people found that in addition to the local town defenders, there were also many troops outside the city that did not belong to the surrounding of the provincial capital.

In other words, the garrisons around the provincial capital only dispatched, but did not leave, but the troops of the surrounding Ling counties were mobilized.

Not long after, the news came that more than 20,000 sergeants had completely blocked the road in and out of Sanmao Peak outside the city, and they were arresting a fugitive who had absconded into it last night.

And this fugitive is really powerful, and he actually assassinated the commander of the Provincial Supervision and Military Office.

This is a second-rank master, and it is said that he is an extremely powerful cultivator.

All of a sudden, when the people in the provincial city looked at these mountains from afar in the pavilion, they felt that there was more special charm.

Xiao Tie looked at Jiang Xiaoyi coldly.

Jiang Xiaoyi's body still smelled of alcohol, but the ordinary blue cloth coarse clothes on her body were very clean.

"I value you as Yun Qin's talents, and so do many adults in the province, so I specially reminded you, but I didn't expect you to do this."

Xiao Tie looked at Jiang Xiaoyi coldly for a long time, and finally said this sentence in a cold and regretful tone.

Jiang Xiaoyi looked at Xiao Tieleng blankly, and said, "I don't know what Lord Xiao means, what we did, we didn't do anything at all." ” Xiao Tie looked at Jiang Xiaoyi with a cold expressionless face, and said, "You didn't do anything, so why were you found near that house?"

Jiang Xiaoyi said seriously: "It should just be too drunk, drunk, and I don't know the way back." ” "You don't have to quibble with me."

Xiao Tieleng turned around, pointed to the mountains in the distance outside the window, and said, "Now everyone knows that the murderer who killed Mu Shenyun has fled into Sanmao Peak.

Those who can testify are not only the many officials who were stationed here yesterday, but also the countless soldiers who were in charge of the pursuit.

As long as Lin Xi is captured in that mountain, it will be ironclad proof."

"Lord Xiao, I don't understand anything you said."

Jiang Xiaoyi thought of his anger and despair yesterday, and thought of Lin Xi who suddenly appeared, and Lin Xi's hand on his shoulder, his heart warmed, so he couldn't help but smile, and said: "What does killing Mu Shenyun have to do with Lin Xi Moreover, whether the evidence is ironclad or not, it is also the real ironclad evidence that it is necessary to catch the talent." ” After a slight pause, Jiang Xiaoyi also nodded at the mountain and said: "Now tens of thousands of troops have surrounded those peaks, and you have deliberately spread the news thoroughly, now everyone knows that the murderer who killed Mu Shenyun is in the mountain, and if Lin Xi comes out from other places and appears elsewhere, it will naturally prove that he has nothing to do with the killing of Mu Shenyun as you said." ” Xiao Tie looked at Jiang Xiaoyi in silence, and after a while, he said in a cold voice: "You should understand that I am not talking to you so much, not to have a war of words with you or to trap you to death, I just don't want to see people who can make contributions to Yun Qin and leave a strong mark in the annals of Yun Qin, but in the end they become people who are useless to Yun Qin and only harmful."

You must understand that the country cannot stand without it, and if everyone does not act according to the law by virtue of their will, how can Yun Qin govern the country?"

"Lord Xiao, Lin Xi and I both understand your kindness."

A trace of sneer and ridicule appeared on Jiang Xiaoyi's face, he looked at Xiao Tieleng, and said: "Lord Xiao must know better than us, Mu Shenyun should die or not, when Yun Qin founded the country, Dean Zhang and the former emperor said that the imperial relatives violated the law and were guilty of the same crime as the common people.

Now, in the final analysis, someone has turned Yun Qin's method into a game. ” "So it's just a game, a game to see if you can get people out of this mountain.

Lord Xiao, you don't need to say anything more, if you say more, I'm afraid that I will feel that adults are hypocritical in my heart, and I will be even less respectful to adults.

Jiang Xiaoyi nodded at the mountain again, and talked to this criminal officer who was not much higher than himself, and he also realized that he came out of Qingluan Academy, and after experiencing last night's incident, all his mood had slowly changed, and he had become more mature.

The green tendons on Xiao Tieleng's forehead jumped, but he finally fell into silence, didn't say anything, just sighed secretly.

He could also feel that these young people had been forced to become more tenacious and mature step by step because of so many things, but the people he saw were not walking up the steps towards the light, but getting farther and farther away from Yun Qin's glory, and he was powerless to undo all this.

In front of Bian Linghan was also sitting a criminal officer.

Similarly, the rank of this gray-haired criminal officer does not know how much higher than her.

The criminal officer clutched a note in his hands wrinkled like the bark of an old tree.

On this note was Lin Xi's handwriting, which was scribbled very casually, "Jiang Xiaoyi seems to be drunk and went out, I will go to him no matter what happened, wait until I come back." ” The last sentence "I'll talk about it when I come back" is very heavy in ink, and the words are almost in a ball of ink, but Bian Linghan can understand it, so she doesn't say anything.

In the face of the criminal officer's many interrogations of Jiang Xiaoyi and Lin Xi, including the interrogation of the note found in her house, her answer was always only three words, "I don't know." ” This old criminal officer was born as an old prison prisoner and arraignator, and he didn't know how many difficult prisoners he had forced a confession from, but in the face of this soft and weak girl, who always only had a slightly white face and shook her head firmly and said that she didn't know, he had a bitter face and had no way.

Because his rank is not low, because he is very old, he can see that this is just one person who wants to kneel, but the other person just does not kneel, and no matter what it is, he can't afford to offend.

He is already old, and his temperament is more gentle, unlike Xiao Tieleng and others who have a rigid personality, and have experienced the era of the emperor and Dean Zhang, so he can't help but think at this time, why does the person on the dragon chair need to do this, everyone is happy, around the pot to burn a pot of mutton to eat, as before, the face is harmonious and beautiful, one side pretends to be surrendered, and you are also completely surrendered as a person, isn't this very good When you are older, you are not a bachelor, and you can rub sand in your eyes.

In fact, after so many years, many Yunqin officials don't think so in their hearts.

Lin Xi still walked briskly through the mountains and forests.

Not far in front of him was an abyss that almost went straight down, and below the abyss, which was hundreds of meters high, was a stream like a blue ribbon, flowing outward.

On the opposite side of this canyon, which is about tens of meters wide as if it had been split by an immortal, is a wider and denser mountain forest area.

Lin Xi had already carefully spied at some high places before, and he found that this mountain peak had been completely sealed by the army, so he had to reach the mountain forest on the opposite side of this canyon.

With the number of defenders and the speed of mobilization, it is probably impossible to completely seal off the peaks on the opposite side, and he will have a chance to escape from this mountain.

Although the wound on the left shoulder has completely stopped bleeding and the left arm is slightly able to move, the arm bone should have been cracked in many places and swollen severely.

Whether it is blood loss or pain, it will consume more physical strength, so after walking quickly this night, Lin Xi is already sweating all over his body at this moment.

As early as Qingluan Academy, every time he cultivated to exhaustion, life was worse than death, he already knew the wonder of soul power cultivation in this world, and knew that the soul power of cultivators was like another source of nutrients and strength in the human body, and when resisting exhaustion, the soul power would naturally be slowly consumed, and this night he also completely perceived it clearly, the secret of the academy Ming King broke the prison, and the reason was that he used soul power to make the flesh and blood of the wounded place produce a strange tremor, As a result, the flesh and blood in the wounded area are clotted and repaired much faster than before.

However, this also comes at the cost of the consumption of soul power.

Even if he was actually "two bowls of water", and his soul power was twice as thick as that of a cultivator of the same level, by this time, he already felt that his soul power was about to be exhausted.

Therefore, he already had to stop and find a place to meditate and replenish his soul power, otherwise his body would be so weak that he couldn't even walk.

At this moment, he saw a waterfall, a waterfall with a loud sound of water.

This waterfall is not more than five or six meters wide, the water flow is not big, it should be the pond of water on the top of the mountain or the spring water formation, but because it is poured down from the cliff, because it is high, so when it rushes into the blue stream at the bottom of the canyon, it seems to be extraordinarily amazing, it washes down all the year round, and a deep pool with a radius of five or six zhang is formed below this waterfall, it looks deep and turquoise, and the water color is much deeper than the water flowing at the bottom of the canyon.

To his slight delight, the width of the canyon seemed to shrink as the waterfall went, and it seemed that it would not be long before a way could be found to bypass the canyon and enter the wider wooded area within.

However, at this moment, he heard clear and steady footsteps coming from the mountain forest on one side.

Then his brow furrowed deeply, and he could clearly see that on the bank of the mountain stream where the waterfall was formed, on a rock, there was a man sitting cross-legged, a man with a black bandage wrapped in the side army on his hand and a black bandage on his chest.

"Lin Xi, you really surprised me that you were able to run so far."

Xue Wantao, who was motionless like a stone, raised his head, with a gloomy expression that was not at all what a young man should have, looked at Lin Xi, and said indifferently
