No wonder the journey was so smooth. Ever since Chu Chuyan disappeared, no such cruel things have happened again.

He doesn't know medicine and poison, and he doesn't know how capable Aoki is.

Seeing all this at this time, he realized that he had greatly underestimated Aoki's strength.

How low can a person who can be expected and favored by the high priest be so low?

When he just entered the forbidden area, Aoki didn't intend to make a move at all.

Zhuang Qingyun was far away, and he didn't know what kind of spell Aoki had cast on these beasts, and he didn't want himself to be discovered by Aoki and cause unnecessary trouble.

Zhuang Qingyun turned around and returned to the campfire, maintaining the posture when he left, pretending that he was already asleep.

He heard Aoki's footsteps when he returned, and also heard the sound of clothes rubbing, and finally fell into silence.

After waiting for a while, after confirming that there was no movement, Zhuang Qingyun moved a bit, changed his posture, opened his eyes a slit, and saw that Aoki was already meditating cross-legged on the stone, closing his eyes and sleeping.

When he woke up the next day, Aoki was still walking towards the exit with his guards as usual.

Zhuang Qingyun followed Aoki and remained silent all day long.

Aoki sensed his strangeness, and tentatively asked: "Why are you depressed all day long, do you have something on your mind?"

Zhuang Qingyun sighed: "The closer I get to the exit, the more panic I feel. I'm afraid that the high priest will blame me, and I won't be able to bear this punishment."

Aoki lowered his voice: "The High Priest will not kill you, what are you afraid of?"

The high priest killed people like hemp, how could he not kill people?

Zhuang Qingyun didn't know where Qingmu's determination and confidence came from: "Why do you say that?"

"You are the most trusted person around the High Priest. The High Priest ordered someone to beat you at most. It is impossible to kill you because of a dead outsider." Aoki said calmly: "The dead are gone, but the living It can also create value, if you were the high priest, what would you do?"

Zhuang Qingyun was speechless, and after a little thought, he figured it out: "I am the most trusted person around the high priest, and you are an indispensable person around the high priest.

The high priest will not do anything to you, son. "

Aoki looked into the distance with both eyes, and his face was calm, as if he just came to this forbidden place for a walk.



After leaving the forbidden area and returning to the priest's mansion, as expected, although Qin Wuyan got angry a lot and ordered the two to be beaten to the point of hemiplegia, he did not kill them directly.

It's just that the news of the death of the young master of the Chu family reached the Chu family. After hearing this, Mrs. Chu became ill.

The head of Patriarch Chu tried his best to make funeral arrangements for Chu Chuyan, but Mrs. Chu refused, "If you want to see people die, you need to see corpses. If my Yan'er doesn't come back for a day, I will treat him as if he is still alive outside... ...."

Patriarch Chu had no choice but to give up because he was afraid of irritating Mrs. Chu. He accompanied Kaijie every day and handed over the matter to Chu Chusheng.

Chu Chusheng was also heartbroken. If he had known that he would end up like this, he shouldn't have listened to his father's dissuasion, tied him up and locked him in the bedroom, and sent people to watch him every day. live.

However, the customs here in Yuecheng have always revered ghosts and gods. In everyone's heart, people have reincarnation. If there is no funeral, the soul will have no refuge, no return, and no way to be favored by heaven.

Chu Chusheng had no choice but to hold a simple but grand funeral for Chu Chuyan without telling Mrs. Chu who fell ill in the bedroom...
