Lu Chen glanced at him and said, "Isn't it about the traitor of the Evil Cult?"
Old Ma pointed at Atsu and said, "What does that have to do with it? Why must it be sent away before the night of the full moon? Our top priority right now is to find the traitor of the Evil Cult. At this critical moment, do you have to divert your attention to send away a dog? " He paused and looked at Lu Chen with a frown, "I think you're a little strange today. Did something happen?"
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "Nothing, I'm fine."
Old Ma stared at him for a moment, then nodded and said, "You're an old man, I won't say anything unnecessary. Anyway, be careful."
Lu Chen stood up and patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and walked towards the gate.
Atsu wanted to follow him, but Lu Chen stopped it. After thinking for a while, he brought it to the courtyard and gave it something to eat. He stroked Atsu's back and whispered something to it.
He didn't know if Atsu understood, but it just sat on the ground and didn't follow.
When Lu Chen walked through the narrow passageway, he looked back and could still see the black dog quietly sitting in the quiet courtyard, staring at his back. There was a faint light flashing in its only eye.
Lu Chen laughed and waved at Atsu. Atsu swung its tail and barked at him.
…
Su Qingjun returned to the mountain after a few days. When Lu Chen saw her, she was walking over from the mountain path. Her face looked a little haggard and her expression was a little heavy. However, when she saw Lu Chen's figure, she still revealed a trace of a smile. She quickened her footsteps and walked over. She sized him up and said, "Are you alright?"
Lu Chen loosened his muscles and said with a smile, "I'm fine, I'm fine."
Su Qingjun showed a gratified smile, then a little apologetic and said, "I should have come back to see you earlier, but I couldn't leave home …"
Lu Chen waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm fine. But what happened at home? Did something urgent happen? "
Su Qingjun hesitated for a moment and then said softly, "There's no need to hide it from you. My brother, Su Mo, had a relapse after returning home that night. He was delirious, and his mouth was full of nonsense. His condition was terrible, as if …"
She didn't finish her words, as if she didn't know what to say. She probably couldn't bear to use the word 'idiot' on her brother.
"En," Lu Chen said and didn't say anything else. He just accompanied her to walk around the Flying Goose Terrace. They gradually walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the vast sea of clouds in front of them.
As the mountain breeze blew, Su Qingjun sighed and said, "My parents have always loved my brother the most, so they were naturally heartbroken to see him in such a miserable state. Then they went around looking for people to treat him, and I also had to help them ask for help. As for you, I was also a little worried that you would also be in the same situation when you went back. That would be terrible. But I really couldn't leave in that situation, so I had to ask younger sister Yi Xin to help me see you. But when I heard that you were safe and sound, I was relieved. "
Lu Chen nodded and said, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry." After he said that, he muttered to himself for a moment, then glanced at Su Qingjun and said, "Right, I heard something else happened a few days ago. That He Yi's brother, He Gang, met with an accident in Kunwu City?"
Su Qingjun smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, it did happen. In fact, this is one of the reasons why I can't return to the mountain. Originally, when my brother was tossed around like that, my Su family was furious and we were unwilling to let He Yi go, but this incident happened. In the end, it seemed like overnight, that Senior Martial Brother He became the victim. Everyone thought that our Su family paid for the murderer to take revenge. "
Lu Chen thought for a moment then asked Su Qingjun, "It really wasn't done by your Su family?"
Su Qingjun rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Of course it wasn't. Didn't I just say it?"
Lu Chen laughed and said, "I'm just joking, I'm just joking. But you have to say, when I heard about this, my first reaction was indeed to think of your family. This matter is too coincidental. Now, many people in the sect are talking about it in private, and they all think it was done by your family. "
With a gloomy expression, Su Qingjun said somewhat helplessly, "Who said it wasn't? It's a pity that we can't come out and explain it. This matter is quite strange, but Senior Martial Brother He lost his younger brother, and he has Dukon Zhenren and the Sect Head standing behind him. Now, it's them who are in the right. Our Su family really can't vent our anger, so we can only swallow it for the time being. "
Lu Chen looked at the woman beside him and saw that there was a slight annoyance on her face. Her chest was heaving up and down, probably because she was still angry in her heart. But when the light from the sky shone down and the cool breeze blew past her temples, her beautiful hair fluttering in the wind, she was still as elegant and beautiful as before. There was even a feeling that after being separated for so many days, she seemed to be even more beautiful than before.
No one spoke at the edge of the cliff for a while. It was quiet like a paradise. Su Qingjun's mood gradually calmed down. After a while, she suddenly blushed and said to Lu Chen somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry. I originally wanted to come back and see how your injuries are, but in the end, it turned into me complaining to you."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "No matter, I'm fine, it doesn't matter if I listen. But you don't need to be too angry." After saying that, he paused for a moment and said again, "Then this matter, you're just going to let it go like this?"
Su Qingjun suddenly sneered and said, "Of course not, I only have this one younger brother. He was muddle-headed and was messed up like this. Whether he will recover in the future is still unknown. How can I let this matter go like this? Besides, I also heard rumors that He Yi Senior Martial Brother He is very sad about his younger brother's death. Although he didn't say anything excessive, but I guess with his personality, I'm afraid that he won't be willing to let this matter go. "
"In short, no matter what, our Su family and his surname He, this enmity is formed!" Su Qingjun said indifferently.
Lu Chen frowned and said, "It sounds really troublesome."
Su Qingjun said, "It doesn't matter if it's troublesome or not. Previously, our Su family temporarily endured it out of consideration for the Sect Master and the other big shots. We didn't want to cause any misunderstandings. But if Senior Martial Brother He really wants to shed all pretense of cordiality and fight, our Su family can't possibly be afraid of him. "
When saying this, Su Qingjun's expression was stern, but there was also a trace of pride. She was probably a big family that had been passed down for many years, so she should have a bit of confidence and confidence.
Lu Chen nodded and echoed a few words. Su Qingjun shook her head and said, "Actually, this matter is like this now, but the most hateful thing is that person who plotted in the dark. He found this opportunity to deliberately provoke hatred between us. It's really hateful!"
As she said this, she gritted her teeth and looked at the sea of clouds in the distance. She said to Lu Chen, "If I can find this person in the future, I will definitely kill him!"
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then he smiled and nodded, saying, "You're right. This person is too evil. He should be killed!"
…
When the sky turned dark, Su Qingjun had already returned to her cave to rest. The Feiyan Terrace was peaceful. A bright moon rose in the night sky and sprinkled its moonlight down.
Ah-Tu's figure was nowhere to be seen in the wooden hut, making Lu Chen feel a bit more empty than before. He wondered if Ah-Tu, who was in Kunwu City at the foot of the mountain, was also looking at the moon like this.
He stared at the bright moon in the night sky and frowned slightly as if he was thinking about something. But soon, his expression suddenly changed. He sat up and looked outside the window.
Sure enough, after a moment, a petite figure appeared in his field of vision.
Lu Chen sighed and didn't get up. He just looked at the figure outside the window and said, "What are you doing here again?"
That person came closer and the moonlight illuminated her face. It was White Lotus.
This young girl with an otherworldly beauty looked especially noble and beautiful under the moonlight, as if she was a fairy that descended from the sky. She didn't stand on ceremony with Lu Chen. She walked over and put her hand on the windowsill, then she directly jumped up and sat on it. She then looked down at the room and was suddenly startled. She said, "Where's Atsu?"
"I drove him away," Lu Chen said faintly, "That stupid dog is too stupid. It's annoying to look at!"
White Lotus snorted. Her face showed that she obviously didn't believe his words. But from this angle, Lu Chen suddenly discovered that the collar of White Lotus's clothes today was very high up, just covering most of her neck.
As if she sensed Lu Chen's gaze, White Lotus smiled and reached out to touch her neck, said, "Thanks to you, that wound is very strange and it won't heal for a long time. Sometimes, I really wonder what your identity is. You always use these indescribable demonic methods. "
Lu Chen sat up straighter, his face revealed a solemn expression and said to White Lotus, "I am not an Evil Sect spy."
White Lotus snorted. Although she looked somewhat disdainful, for some reason she seemed to believe his words.
Lu Chen looked at the dark night outside, shook his head and said to White Lotus, "I say, you have nothing better to do than to run around all day. First, is it because your omnipotent master doesn't care about you? Second, this mountain still has a curfew, if you are seen by the patrolling disciples, wouldn't it be embarrassing? "
White Lotus' face was full of disdain, said, "First, my master usually doesn't care about me. He has a lot of things to do and can't wait to cultivate every day. Second, curfew is a fart, sect rules are a fart. I am the direct disciple of a Huashen True Monarch, not to mention those trash can't catch me, even if they see me, what can they do to me?"
Lu Chen was silent, then smiled bitterly and said, "You are so young but you can see it clearly."
White Lotus sat high up on the window sill, looked down at him and said, "Nonsense, people in this world are divided into high and low, how can those without ability sit on the same level as us? Why are you pretending to be a saint? "
Lu Chen smiled and didn't say anything. He turned to look at the moon in the sky. The moon tonight was bright and full, illuminating a large part of the dark night sky.
There were only seven days left until the next full moon night.
