Chapter 230: Monster Movement
Heng Li saw that Qin Shuxue was in a bad mood. He couldn't say anything to comfort her. To be honest, he was just awake when Yu Feiling was making a fuss, and he couldn't walk. Did she ask about Qin Shuxue? No, not only that, she also cursed at the Chongyun Sect. She almost cursed Ju Ji; if she hadn't broken into the sect herself, she would have been driven away.
What reason did she have to be angry at the sect? She probably just wanted to vent. At first, she only knew that she was seriously injured, so she was not angry. Later, when she knew that she could not practice martial arts, she started to curse. But to put it bluntly, with her little kung fu, does it matter whether she practices martial arts or not?
Heng Li resisted the urge to kill Yu Feiling and had to comfort Qin Shuxue. He lamented that Qin Shuxue was too naive. Maybe Yu Feiling was actually planning something behind the scenes. At that time, he and Situ Xiayan both agreed that Yu Feiling was a dangerous person, but Qin Shuxue was still persistent in being friends with her. Later, Yu Feiling gradually became more obedient, and they stopped pursuing the matter. But at the root of the matter, Situ Xiayan was ostracized by the sect, and things developed to this point today. Isn't it all because of Yu Feiling?
Heng Li thought about this and felt that he couldn't just keep comforting her. He told her the whole story before she went back to sleep. Qin Shuxue felt that it made sense, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. She was used to finding the reasons in herself. She felt that she was tired and asked to stop, so Yu Feiling left. It seemed that Yu Feiling couldn't be blamed entirely for this.
Heng Li reminded: "But after you came back safely, did she act anxious? Don't you think she was not surprised, or even seemed to know about this matter in advance?"
Qin Shuxue really didn't see it. If she had seen it, she wouldn't be here today to doubt Heng Li. She didn't want to doubt her friend, but was puzzled and said: "So do you think her intention of doing this is to harm me or Situ Xiayan? Who of us can hate her to that extent? Does she want the demon world and the immortal world to go to war? Does she want to make the whole world restless? Before accepting her as a disciple, didn't Chongyun Sect have her information?"
Heng Li thought for a moment and replied, "Of course there is information, but I can't guarantee that it is accurate, because now I doubt her. In her information, she is just a child from an ordinary family, so there is nothing special about her. Poor aptitude and poor academic performance are all normal things. But I only know that she has been without a father since she was a child. Her mother raised her alone. She once followed Ju Jifeng, and I have seen her mother. She is a very haggard and tearful woman. It seems that her family is a little unhappy, but this should have nothing to do with the war, right? His mother is also an ordinary person, not some other race."
"Look at what you said. Who would marry a demon? Isn't that a clear sign of wanting to start a war?"
"That's not the case. Not all monsters in this world are a threat to humans. Some negative emotions are not aggressive." Heng Li fell into thought.
Qin Shuxue said: "So far, I have never seen such a monster. Even the little Despair doesn't seem very friendly to me. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Shouldn't Yu Feiling go back to her home to find her mother? She should be safe with her mother."
"That's the problem. She didn't go back. We went to an unknown place. We sent people to wait for her mother, but she never came back. Her mother cried every day and her body was about to collapse."
In this case, Qin Shuxue couldn't help but worry about Yu Feiling. After all, she was the one who had been with Yu Feiling all the time. She believed that this little girl didn't have such deep thoughts and wouldn't do such outrageous things. If one day, all the evidence was in front of her, she would cooperate with everyone to capture Yu Feiling.
She said to Heng Li in a distracted manner: "Okay, I get it. If there are any new changes in this matter, you must remember to tell me. I'm going back first, you should go back to your room too and have a good rest. You still have to work tomorrow."
Heng Li nodded, watched Qin Shuxue return to the house, then turned and left.
In the ancient courtyard, the night enveloped the entire town. The breeze blew through the bamboo forest in the courtyard, making a series of whispers, while Qin Shuxue sat alone at the table, her shadow swaying on the wall under the light. In her hand, she held an unsent letter, the handwriting was blurred under the light. The anxiety in her heart was like frost in the dark night, tightly surrounding her.
Yu Feiling had been away from Chongyun Sect for so many days, and there was no news from her. Whenever she tried to peek out the window, she could only see the mountains in the distance disappearing into the deep night, and the endless darkness made her feel even more lonely. The fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus in the courtyard seemed to have become heavy because of her worries, and every cry of the night birds was like a piercing pain in her heart. Her heart seemed to be entangled by invisible ropes, with both deep concern for the safety of her friends and a sense of helplessness about the unpredictable future.
She looked at the old clock from time to time, and time seemed to be slow and ruthless to her. Every second dragged on for a long time, her breathing became rapid, and beads of sweat on her forehead flashed under the lamplight. She prayed, hoping that the wind would bring news of her friend's safety, and hoping that the disappeared figure would reappear in the morning light and bring back peace and laughter.
Maybe it was because she didn't sleep that she heard a strange noise outside. It wasn't strange, because it wasn't the first time she heard such noise. It was the sound of monsters stepping into the village. It was accompanied by several sharp howls. The village was very quiet, and the sound only came from far away. Seeing that the girls who lived in the same house with her were not awake, she planned to call Hengli and the others to deal with the monster without alerting the villagers. However, as soon as she ran towards the house over there, she saw a figure appear in the dark forest by the moonlight. Who else could the figure be at this time? It must be a powerful monster.
There was no point in calling Hengli, she started to shout like crazy, trying to get all the villagers to wake up and take shelter. She shouted: "It's on fire, it's on fire, hurry up and put out the fire!"
