Chapter 61 Crime and Punishment
The moon disappeared in the clouds, and the wind blew outside the window.
The dim yellow candle swayed, and the three silent people returned to the outer room.
Youao Mountain sat at the table - he was the only one sitting in this room.
"Two months later, Ling Tang woke up, but if you ask her about the whereabouts of the secret map of the Northern Treasure, she will only scream and sob, and no matter how comfort she is, it won't help."
"At first, I thought she was pretending to be crazy, but in the next three days, I came up with various ways to test her. But in the end, I found that... she really had completely lost her memory!"
Qing'er's heart is cut like a knife, bloody battle, disfigurement, amnesia... Her mother has suffered, and she seems to empathize with it.
Years of expectation and prayer disappeared in an instant and turned into a ruin of the soul.
Her mother is still alive - what a happy and exciting news, but her mother is no longer a mother. She can no longer recognize herself and doesn't even know who she is.
"Mom, it's so pitiful--" She held back her tears but couldn't stop her heartache.
Chu Tian hugged her, let her lean in his arms, and asked Youao Mountain, "Are you sure?"
Youaoshan nodded, "Seven of us were almost killed and injured. At such a heavy price, we got Lin Yinxue, who couldn't remember anything. At that time, we were depressed and desperate. I was unwilling to fail. I tried my best to recover her memory, and even took her to the ruins of the small mountain village, hoping to stimulate her to wake up her memory.
Chu Tian felt Qinger shiver in his arms.
It turned out that Youao Mountain once came back with Lin Yinxue. If he and Qing'er could stay in the small mountain village for a longer time, maybe they could meet them.
However, there is no if in life, and there is no again in life.
"But it's useless. I'm completely desperate." Youao Mountain patted the drunken sealing mud of Guanyin brought back from the restaurant and sent it directly to his mouth for a big sip.
"The biggest problem in front of me at this time is how to deal with Lingtang. Of course, the simplest way is to take her back to the Northern Underworld and give it to the landlord. But I can't be cruel."
He looked at Qing'er and said, "She doesn't remember who I am at all. Instead, she thinks that I saved her and guarded and took care of her day and night, so she regarded me as the only person in the world who can be close and trusted."
"Shameless!" Qing'er shook her hand and flew out of Yan Fu's whip to strangle Youao Mountain's neck.
Youaoshan raised his face as if he wanted to look through the roof and look up at the cold night. He said, "I know you hate me. That's right, I'm sorry--"
Chu Tian pressed Qing'er's arm, and his mind was full of fire, scorched earth, and relatives who struggled and wailed in pain.
"You don't have to pretend to apologize. Can I and Qinger let you go with a word of apology? You tell me: In addition to Lin Xanqing, who is the other living murderer?
"You don't have to ask. He has been dead for three years." Youao Mountain's breathing was a little difficult, and he replied, "Now I'm the only 17 people alive who participated in the interception..."
If the third enemy is dead, then killing Youao Mountain can avenge your parents?! There was an indescribable strange feeling in Chu Tian's heart. It's not joy, it's not relief, but it's an unknown loss and entangled annoyance.
Then he listened to Youao Mountain and said, "I want to thank you, Brother Chu. Although I have a lot of you, you let me see that I have the courage to face reality--"
"I have anesthetized my nerves with alcohol all day long, but I have never broken free from my inner guilt. I left Beiming City and was determined to accompany Qinger's mother in this secluded valley, but I'm not sure if she will remember what I had done to her. Can she forgive me?
He slowly closed his eyes and said calmly, "So I don't ask you to let me go. Let's do it. Send me on the road."
"Bum!" The door was knocked open, and Sun's mother rushed in from outside the house and drew a knife to hold the Cangyun Yuanchen sword stabbed by Chu Tian. The fierce sword power made her body tremble. She carried the knife against the sword with all her strength and shouted, "That's not the young master's fault!"
"Sun's mother, you go out. This day is long overdue. Thank you for taking care of her for so many years. Youao Mountain did not open its eyes.
"But you didn't know in advance that they caused the thunderstorm of the nine prisons - when you arrived, the thunderstorms of the nine prisons had already ignited the whole mountain village!"
Sun's mother shouted hoarsely, "Young master, tell them the truth. Why don't you tell them the truth?"
"The truth? What truth? What else do you know?" Chu Tian's heart was shocked, and Cang Yun Yuanchen's sword suddenly lifted up.
Just as Sun's mother was about to speak, Youaoshan shouted harshly, "Sun's mother!"
Sun's mother looked at Youao Mountain and said sadly, "Young master, what's wrong with you? You asked me to come here to take care of Mrs. Lin for six years. For six years, we have kept this great secret! For this secret, you and Miss E--"
Youaoshan looked at it and sighed, "Well, it's up to me, and it's up to me!" Slap your back on your chest.
"Aoshan, are you outside--?"
At the critical moment, a soft woman's voice suddenly sounded in the inner room.
Youaoshan immediately condensed his hands and responded as if nothing had happened: "Well, I'm here, and I also brought two friends."
The bead curtain picked gently, Lin Yinxue came out, and a layer of soft white veil hid her terrible face behind.
She stood by the door and looked at Chu Tian and Qinger with some confusion, but saw two strange boys and girls holding swords and whips. You'ao Mountain sat on a stool full of blood and seemed unable to move. She couldn't help but change her face and said, "What are you doing--?"
Youaoshan said, "It's okay. They are all my friends. We are... to compete with each other."
Qing'er looked at her mother's frightened and frightened eyes. Her cherry lips trembled slightly, but there seemed to be something blocked in her throat. She wanted to scream but couldn't say a word.
"Little sister, can you put away the whip first? Since friends compete with each other, it's not good to hurt people!" Lin Yinxue pleaded with Qing'er. She didn't seem to realize at all that the fierce-looking little girl opposite was actually her daughter who had been separated for six years.
Qing'er couldn't help nodding, and the sound of Yan Fu's magic whip disappeared into her sleeve.
At the same time, Chu Tian also put away Cangyun Yuanchen Sword.
Youao Mountain nod his gratitude to Chu Tian and Qinger. He turned his head and ordered, "Mother Sun, your wife is too thin. Go and get a cloak."
Sun's mother answered, but her body stood still.
"Don't worry." Youaoshan waved helplessly, and Sun's mother quickly walked into the inner room.
When Youaoshan spoke, Qinger kept looking at Lin Yinxue. Her mother really didn't remember anything - she didn't remember to hug me, didn't remember to let me act coquettish in her arms, didn't remember to hide me under the ancient well, and didn't remember to pick me home...
The more Qing'er thought about it, the more sad she was. The more she thought about it, the more she hated it. Her eyes flashed with crystal tears. She turned around and fell into Chu Tian's arms and sobbed silently.
Chu Tian stroked her back and comforted her softly in her ear. Sun's mother had brought a cloak to cover Lin Yinxue and helped her sit beside Youao Mountain.
"Aoshan, this little sister... What's going on with her?"
"Her name is Qinger. She has been looking for her mother for six years, and she finally found it today." Youao Mountain made up his mind that there is no eternal secret in the world. It's time to tell Lin Yinxue the truth.
However, the Cangyun Yuanchen sword inserted diagonally behind Chu Tian suddenly sounded, and it sensed the powerful murderous atmosphere pouring in outside the house.
"The ghost knocks on the door in the middle of the night." Qinger slowly raised her head from Chu Tian's arms, looked outside the silent door, wiped away tears, and her eyebrows burst out murderous.
Youao Mountain doesn't have many friends, and Lin Yinxue is his biggest secret. At this time, someone suddenly visited the place of seclusion late at night, and it was definitely not for visiting relatives and friends.
"Seven people, according to the direction of well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing and star, have surrounded the wooden house." You'ao Mountain's voice did not move. He secretly suppressed the internal injury because of his luck. He showed his spiritual consciousness to reflect the movement of 500 meters. He said slowly, "If I'm right, they are the seven-night stay of rosefinch!"
Sun's mother was surprised and said, "How can the people of Bidong Sect know that we and our wife live in seclusion in the big cliff mountain?" But he glanced at Chu Tian and Qing'er.
"It's none of the matter between the Chu brothers and Qing'er girl. They didn't even know I was here before." Youao Mountain stood up, and his right hand had an extra black scabbard magic sword.
"The Bidong Sect is one of the five schools of righteousness, among which the most outstanding second-generation direct disciples are synthesized into the 28th night of Bidong. Seven came today, which is very a great honor.
You'ao Mountain holds a sword in his hand, and suddenly it seems that he has changed. The original decadence disappeared, and the whole abyss stopped Yuezhi was majestic, showing the heroic demeanor of a generation of demons.
"You stay in the house to protect your wife. I'll meet these distinguished guests from afar!"
He secretly took a breath to run the magic skill and made a strong roar of the collapsed cloud and cracked stone, and his eyes burst out of light and stepped out of the cabin.
But every step he took, the wound on his chest would send a sharp pain. He gritted his teeth and held back.
Chu Tian's heart sank when he saw it. He knew that the injury of You'ao Mountain was far more serious than what was revealed, and he was not sure about the battle. Otherwise, he doesn't have to make a big deal when he goes out to try to deter the rosefinch and send it directly.
Thinking of this, Chu Tian whispered to Qinger, "You stay."
Qing'er looked at Lin Yinxue, who didn't know what had happened, and resolutely refused, "No, they came for my mother."
There was a cold light in her eyes, and she rushed out of the door before Chu Tian.
At this time, the tall figure of You'ao Mountain has stood quietly outside the door. The magic sword "Yuhai" in his hand has never come out of its sheath. The buzzing sound resounded all over the fields, urging the rolling forest waves to roll over.
In the mountain forest around the cabin, seven middle-aged Taoist people in fiery red robes appeared one by one and slowly gathered to the open space in front of the door.
The god of Youao Mountain was majestic and looked at the rosefinch and said, "Go back and change the real rosefinch. With the weight of the seven of you, please don't move You!"
