Thinking of the past, Duan Chang Feng's eyes lit up. It was as if every dying person couldn't forget and couldn't bear to look back on the young man who used to be as bright as the sun and wanted to compete with the sky.
"Seeing that the eldest brother and second sister had gone down the mountain one after another, my junior sister and I couldn't help but yearn for it. So we quietly left without saying goodbye and left the sect hand in hand to explore the world. We originally planned to go back and apologize to our master, but we didn't expect that the moment we stepped into the world, we were blinded and lost the date of our return."
"Xiao Ci was smart and had the demeanor of a master since she was a child. I was good at medical skills and helped her. Not long after we went down the mountain, we became famous by solving a strange case. Then one difficult case after another came to us. So much praise and worship piled up in an instant. For us who had just entered the world, we had no power to resist. Soon, we were lost in it and thought that there was nothing we could do in the world. After that, we came across that case. "
Ning Shu vaguely remembered her master's advice when she was a child, "Mr. Duan, are you talking about the case where my master was almost killed by someone more than ten years ago? My master had been brooding about that case for many years and warned me many times to be vigilant of people. "
"Yes. At that time, we received a request for help. It said that a young girl was humiliated by a local squire and was forced to hang herself. As a woman, Xiao Ci was filled with righteous indignation, so she took the case. After some investigation, the squire was sentenced to death. Who would have thought that after the squire was beheaded, the girl who was supposed to be dead suddenly appeared and accused Xiao Ci of having an old grudge with the squire, so she bribed the girl to do this. "
Hearing this, Hui Mo was shocked and his eyes widened, "Isn't this a case of a thief crying thief? You must have accidentally offended someone in the process of solving the case, so they made such a scene to kill you! What happened later? You weren't convicted, were you? "
Recalling that dark moment, Duan Chang Feng's eyes slowly became moist. He couldn't bear to look back. "We can only blame ourselves for being young and hot-blooded at that time. When we suddenly stood at the peak, we didn't even know that we had offended someone. We didn't even know that the people in this world were sinister. The seemingly weakest and most innocent people were often wearing animal skins. After the case was announced, Xiao Ci's reputation of solving fifty-four cases in three years was instantly forgotten. Countless slanderous words came from all directions, as if the earth was collapsing and the mountains were collapsing. The government immediately locked Xiao Ci in prison and prepared to execute her after autumn. Only when I went around asking for help did I realize what was called the hypocrisy of the world. Those who were saved by us in the past all turned their backs on us and avoided us. In desperation, I had no choice but to beg the young girl to tell me the truth. "
Huimo's curiosity was aroused. "And then?"
Duan Chang Feng nodded and lowered his head, "It was only after I found her that I found her that she had no other choice but to help others frame Xiao Ci. Her mother was seriously ill and she was at the end of her rope. Coincidentally, this is my specialty. After curing her mother, she finally changed her mind. However, she was worried that she would be retaliated after telling the truth. She was also afraid that we would get even with her after we got out of trouble, so she forced me to make a deal with her. She wanted to marry me. "
Hui Mo's eyes widened. "You didn't agree, did you?"
Ning Shu listened quietly from the side, silently clenching her fists. Seemingly aware of her low mood, Xiahou Qing silently walked to her side, stretched out his hand and touched her red palm for a moment. He opened her red palm and gently rubbed it.
Duan Chang Feng reluctantly turned his head away. "At that time, the day of execution was imminent. I had no way out."
