Chapter 20
"Love the mountains and rivers for comfort."

Pei Chuan sat on the wide-cold wooden seven-screen couch, propped his chin with one hand, and stared at Jiang Huaiqi on the bed with interest.

His eyes were presumptuous, but Jiang Huaiqi just frowned.

"As for the matter in the court, you should pay more attention recently and help me keep an eye on the people of the Liu family." Jiang Huai said.

"Brother Huang, just kill the disobedient people, what's the point of talking to them."

Pei Chuan spoke casually, with a bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes.

"Nonsense, how can you deal with the affairs of the court at will? Cough cough..."

"I'm just talking casually, Brother Huang, don't take it seriously."

Pei Chuan saw the red light on Jiang Huai's face, and a weird smile spread on his lips, but he quickly covered it up.

"Brother Huang, if there is nothing else, I will leave first. I haven't had time to get a good night's sleep because of the tiring journey."

The tone was still lazy, but the blue and black under Pei Chuan's eyes showed that he was indeed exhausted.

Jiang Huaiqi didn't keep him, just said: "Go and rest, I have palace servants here to take care of me."

Pei Chuan saluted and exited the hall.It wasn't until he got on the sedan chair that he put away his cynicism.

"This palace is interesting."

Outside Jiangzhou City.

After the rain it was all mud.

Xiaobai couldn't smell the smell of pottery sticks, so he didn't let go of every place. His grip got stuck in the mud, and he fell down again and again, but his progress never stopped.

"Zhizhi, where are you?"

"Tao Zhi!"

"You're sure nothing will happen!"

"..."

Xiaobai's voice was hoarse, but Tao Zhi still couldn't be found.

It huddled into a small ball, squatting on the muddy ground, looking at the mud and weeds all over the ground, feeling very depressed.

"Woooo..."

Xiao Bai lay on the ground, tears streaming down his cheeks, unwilling to accept the result of Tao Zhi's accident.

"I'm going to get some water, you stay here and take care of him."

Xu Sui followed them all the way, feeling guilty in his heart.

The tragedy of last night was vivid, but as the cat spirit said, they did not commit any unforgivable mistakes, and even just wanted to live well.

Even this minimum hope was ruthlessly destroyed by human beings, Xu Sui hated his profession for the first time.

He walked very fast, more like "fleeing".It seems that as long as he walks fast enough, he can escape the harshness in his heart.

After Xu Sui left, a hedgehog rolled in front of Xiao Bai.

He had been staring at Xiaobai and his party for a long time, and it was only because of the existence of that demon catcher that he never showed up.

"Are you looking for a girl?"

Xiaobai nodded again and again: "Do you have any news about her?"

"follow me."

The hedgehog led the way and brought Xiaobai and the others to the cave where Tao Zhi lived.

The clothes on Tao Zhi's body were all dry, but she suffered serious internal injuries and was still unconscious at this time.

"Zhizhi!"

Xiaobai sticks out his rough tongue, licking Tao Zhi's palm incessantly.

There were barbs on the cat's tongue, Tao Zhi was licked uncomfortably, and opened his eyes weakly.

"Zhizhi, you're awake. Woohoo, you scared me to death."

Xiaobai cried so hard that he really thought he would never see Tao Zhi again.Putting his nose close to Tao Zhi, he was surprised to find that Tao Zhi's body was completely devoid of evil spirit.

"Are you Tao Zhi? Could it be a fake?"

Xiaobai leaned close to Tao Zhi's neck, but couldn't find that familiar smell.

Tao Zhi was tickled by Xiao Bai, and stretched out his hand to push him away: "Who is free to pretend to be me!"

The tone was still the same, Xiaobai confirmed that the person in front of him was Tao Zhi, and couldn't help but deepen his doubts.

"Then what about your demonic aura?"

Tao Zhi pulled out the hidden pendant around his neck, and said, "It's been hidden for now.

The wound was painful, Tao Zhi lifted his clothes and saw that the wound inside was already inflamed, no wonder it hurt so much.

"Your wound must be treated as soon as possible, otherwise your physical body will be useless."

Xiaobai and all the demons surrounded Tao Zhi. They wanted to help Tao Zhi heal, but they didn't know how to do medicine, so they could only stare at the side.

"Before, there were goblins who died from infection of their physical wounds. When they died, their bodies rotted."

"I've also seen that they just procrastinated without treatment, and the result became more and more serious."

Monster spirits, you talk, I talk, talk non-stop.

Tao Zhi, with black lines all over his head, interrupted them: "I'm going to Xuanwu City."

Everyone heard that Xuanwu City fled one after another, and some even hid under the rocks, only showing a pair of eyes.

"Don't go to Xuanwu City. It's really scary there. They're all demon hunters."

"That's right, we can go to a farther place to see a doctor, and we don't have to go to Xuanwu City."

There are quite a few demon spirits here, who were captured by Lu Yuan before, and they have seen the horror of Xuanwu City, so they would rather die than set foot in Xuanwu City.

"I know that Xuanwu City is very dangerous, but we must expose the villain's face, otherwise thousands of demon spirits will suffer."

Tao Zhi knows the danger of this trip, but he still has no hesitation.

"No, even if it means breaking the sky, I don't want to go either."

The fear came from within, Tao Zhi frowned, but he was unwilling to force it.

This trip is so dangerous, whether he can come back is still unknown, Tao Zhi sighed.

"Then let's say goodbye here today, and meet each other by fate."

Tao Zhi stood up tremblingly, holding on to the big rock next to him.

"I'll go with you."

Xiaobai has already made an oath in his heart that no matter where Tao Zhi goes, he will follow.

"I'll go too." Xiaohua wagged her tail. Unlike Tao Zhi, she didn't have righteousness in her heart, she just wanted to follow Xiaobai, even if it was a mountain of swords and seas of fire, she would not hesitate.

"I said, you will be arrested as soon as you arrive at the gate of Xuanwu City."

Xu Sui's voice suddenly sounded, and the demon spirit in the cave seemed to be facing a formidable enemy.

"Bastard Demon Catcher, kill him!"

The appearance of Xu Sui aroused the anger of the crowd, but although everyone was dissatisfied, none of the demon spirits dared to act.

"Can you help us?"

Although Tao Zhi is wary of Xu Sui, at the moment, the only person he can trust is Xu Sui.

"Okay, but you have to wrong the two cat spirits."

Xu Sui looked at Xiaohua and Xiaobai without much emotion in his eyes.

"What do you mean?" Tao Zhi asked warily.

She was worried that Xiaobai would make a move at any time, so she subconsciously protected Xiaobai behind her back. The scars on her arm were shocking, and the slightest touch would cause severe pain.

"Recently, many monster hunters have come to Xuanwu City to supply goods, and we can pretend to be in it." Xu Sui explained his thoughts truthfully.

"No, what if he handed you over!"

Hedgehog was the first to raise an objection.

"This is the only way for you to enter Xuanwu City."

Xu Sui still had that indifferent look, he didn't seem to care about anything.

"You can't trust him, he is a demon catcher and a bad guy."

The hedgehog got angry in a hurry. He curled up into a ball, smashed himself against the wall, and then hit Xu Sui with the rebound force of the wall.

Facing the huge impact, Xu Sui just casually knocked the hedgehog aside, but the back of his hand was still bleeding.

Seeing the holes on the back of his hand, Xu Sui directly tore off one of his clothes to bandage the wound, and tied a knot.

"I'll wait for you until dark, and give me a result."

Xu Sui raised his sword and walked outside the cave. The entrance of the cave was a little slippery after it rained just now, so he randomly found a stone and sat down.

"Why don't we try to trust him once." Tao Zhi looked at Xiaobai and Xiaohua, seeking advice.

Xiaobai: "I support any decision you make."

Tao Zhi saved Xiaobai several times, which he owed her, so Xiaobai unconditionally supports any decision of Taozhi.

"Calm down, all of you, don't be fooled by that demon catcher, all demon catchers are bad guys." The hedgehog was furious, "The bully in Xuanwu City dared to do whatever he wanted because he was backed by the demon catcher, especially that The elder brother of the Xiankui sect. How can I describe it! It’s that kind of gentleman’s little figure.”

"Senior brother of the Sunflower Sect?" Tao Zhi raised his voice.

"Yes, he is so ruthless that he even kills his own people, let alone us demon spirits who can't stand on the stage." The hedgehog eloquently told Tao Zhi everything he saw in the forest that day.

"The past few days seem to be related to the Sunflower Sect." Tao Zhi said.

"Is there anything else related to the Sunflower Pie?" Hedgehog raised his head and asked sincerely.

"It's a long story, let me tell you slowly." Xiaobai walked to the side of the hedgehog with noble steps, and was about to speak eloquently.

"Stop."

Tao Zhi knew Xiaobai's temperament too well, they were pressed for time and could not tolerate nonsense.

After trotting outside, she saw Xu Sui's back.

He sat casually on the stone with a dog's tail grass in his mouth. When he heard the movement, he turned around.

Spit out the dog's tail grass in his mouth, turned over and jumped down the stone steps, still with the same dead face: "How is it? Have you thought about it?"

"Let's not go to Xuanwu City, let's go to Xiankui faction first. The most important thing is to find a way to unlock the Yukui lock and save Xiaobai's grandma."

"You've finally figured it out. I'm going to go to the jelly pie."

Xu Sui subconsciously looked down at Tao Zhi's inflamed wound, and reminded, "Your wound needs healing."

"It's okay, I can handle it."

Tao Zhi thought to himself that he had a system, at most he could do a few tasks, obtain involution points, and exchange for potions.

"No."

Still cherishing words like gold, Xu Sui insisted: "It won't take long to go to the Xiankui School, you should deal with the wound first."

The tall figure was unbelievable, he raised Tao Zhi's arm, frowning: "The wound is rotten, and he will die."

Just as Tao Zhi wanted to refuse, he heard Xu Sui's suggestion: "If you are worried about handing over the cat spirits to me, then leave them here. We will pick them up after we finish our business."

"I disagree."

Xiaobai and Xiaohua followed.

The situation is unresolved again.

"Xiaobai, Xiaohua, do you want to go with me?" Tao Zhi asked the cat spirit for his opinion.

"Of course. You don't know how to protect yourself. I have to stay with you."

"Me too."

"Then count me in!" The hedgehog also rolled out at this time, "I am willing to try to believe in those you believe in."

"And I."

One after another, the demon spirits stepped forward, knowing that the road ahead was dangerous, but they still had no hesitation.
