The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 869 Let me seek justice for you
A day later, in the deep forest of Zhongnan Mountain.

"You just left her there? Isn't that like your style?"

Lazily bathed in the sun, Xiaoqing's winding snake body fell vertically from the tree branch, just blocking Pei Wende's only way.

Since entering Zhongnan Mountain yesterday, Xiaoqing broke away from Pei Wende and acted alone.

On the one hand, of course, it was because Xiaoqing couldn't understand Pei Wende's behavior, so she simply hid out of sight and out of mind.

On the other hand, Xiaoqing also wanted to see if there was any hidden danger in the direction Rong Huazi was pointing at, and whether there really was a Taoist temple in the deep mountains and old forests.

So after a night of groping and probing, Xiaoqing was finally sure that Rong Huazi was not lying.

There are indeed no difficult enemies hidden in the nearby forests, and the Chunyang Temple is indeed located on a towering mountain peak.

Speaking of the search this night, the only thing that surprised Xiaoqing was that she actually found a piebald snake demon near Chunyang Temple.

It's a pity that the piebald snake demon was extremely vigilant. After realizing Xiaoqing, an outsider, it disappeared into the forest immediately.

For the vast majority of creatures, when they become monsters, the same kind is no longer the way they distinguish friend from foe.

Especially in the eyes of the piebald snake monster, an existence like Xiaoqing is not so much its kind, but a threat, a predator who is also at the top of the food chain.

Fortunately, Xiaoqing has no plans to "settle" under Zhongnan Mountain. After realizing the piebald snake demon's intention to avoid it, Xiaoqing just left some aura in the surrounding menacingly, and ignored it.

This is the tacit understanding between monsters, and it is also the survival and hunting instinct of most wild beasts.

At the very least, before the piebald snake demon has the courage to challenge Xiaoqing's majesty, this huge mountain forest will temporarily become her territory.

"Look at what you said is so ugly, those who don't know think I have done something immoral?"

Rolling his eyes angrily, he saw that Pei Wende continued to walk forward while looking around the mountains and forests where he could hardly see any path.

"Rong Huazi and I were originally in a transactional relationship. Now that it is confirmed that she has not lied and I have fulfilled my promise, it is natural that we will not owe each other."

When he said this, Pei Wende paused for a moment, and then continued.

"Besides, just like what you said before, there must be other secrets hidden in Rong Huazi."

"So instead of continuing to go on the road with such an unstable factor, it is the best choice for each other to let go of this."

The reason why Pei Wende insisted on asking Rong Huazi to lead the way at that time was that on the one hand, it was convenient to guide the other party, but on the other hand, it was probably because he was worried that Rong Huazi would deliberately point the wrong way.

The heart of harming others is not necessary, but the heart of defending others is also necessary.

Now that the goal has been achieved, separation has naturally become inevitable.

......................................................................................................

"Have you left?"

When Rong Huazi, who was sitting cross-legged under the big tree, opened her eyes, Pei Wende's figure had gone away, only cicadas and birds were still ringing in her ears.

"Sure enough, he is as 'pedantic' as Dad."

Staring at the direction in which Pei Wende was going away with a slightly complicated expression, Rong Huazi obviously knew why Pei Wende chose to leave.

However, it was precisely because he knew Pei Wende's choice that Rong Huazi felt that the other party was too pedantic.

Obviously his strength is far superior to his own, and he obviously has the grace of preaching, teaching and resolving doubts...

As long as Pei Wende speaks, Rong Huazi has no reason, and it is absolutely impossible to refuse any request from Pei Wende.

But what about Pei Wende?

After confirming the specific location of Chunyang Temple, he unexpectedly chose to go alone.

Taking a step back, even if Pei Wende was really worried that Rong Huazi would become an unstable factor.

But it is undeniable that Rong Huazi's adoptive father did have a fate with Chunyang Guan there, why is it better to take her up the mountain than to be alone?

Therefore, no matter from which angle you look at it, Pei Wende's behavior cannot be explained by the rhetoric of "neither owe each other".

"I didn't expect that other than Dad, there would be such a 'pure' person in this world."

Whether it is said that Pei Wende keeps his promise, or that he has his own persistence in his heart...

All this fell into Rong Huazi's eyes, and she couldn't help but think of her father who died in the "soul boy case" more than 20 years ago.

"It's a pity that such people often don't end well."

Rong Huazi, who hadn't indulged in sad emotions for too long, was no longer the lonely and helpless girl she used to be, stood up with an indifferent and deep expression.

Boom!

In the next second, a sarcophagus broke out from the ground behind him.

Different from the coffin that held undead corpses, this sarcophagus is made of a single piece of obsidian as a whole, presenting a sense of unity and naturalness.

Not only that, but on the surface of this sarcophagus, many spell runes were engraved in relief, giving people a different kind of eerie and weird feeling.

Even under the sunlight, this chilly air could not dissipate for a long time.

"Although the process was a little different from what I imagined, I still came to Chunyang Temple after all."

Looking at the endless forest in the distance, Rong Huazi muttered to herself, and the sarcophagus behind her opened automatically at this time.

clack clack...

Accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of rubbing stones, a straight man's corpse in a plain robe with a straight waist appeared naturally behind Rong Huazi.

Compared with the undead body full of stitch marks, the man's body in front of him was too "clean".

Not to mention normal wounds or stitches, this man didn't even have the slightest bit of decay that a corpse should have.

If it wasn't for the bloodless face that showed the identity of the deceased, bystanders would not suspect that this was just a scholar who was resting with his eyes closed.

The most important thing is that there is a lotus flower on the man's chest.

Even though the rhizome has been broken off, this lotus is still so delicate and charming, and you can even see signs of dewdrops flowing on the lotus leaves.

This lotus is the "opportunity" that Rong Huazi got in Lujiazhuang, and it is also the reason why this corpse can be preserved so well.

"Father, I actually don't agree with your point of view."

"The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, but the kindness of life is not repaid."

"You saved the Taoist priest at the risk of being wanted by the government, but the Taoist priest disappeared after he recovered from his injury."

"Especially that guy who obviously possesses such powerful supernatural powers, but let you be killed by those dog emperors, it's really unfair!"

"So, this time, let me seek justice for you!"
