If Lu Hanjiang could roughly tell what kind of illusion he encountered from Chi Cangping's performance, then he couldn't understand it at all on Gongsun Cheng's side.
At this moment, Gongsun Cheng was talking and laughing crazily on the spot. At his feet was Gongsun Yao's already cold body.
Lu Hanjiang looked down and saw that Gongsun Yao's neck was covered with bruises. She had obviously been strangled to death, and the person who did it was her brother, Gongsun Cheng.
This was something Lu Hanjiang couldn't handle at once. He was about to speak when he saw Gongsun Cheng turning around, with a terrifying look of madness in his bloodshot eyes.
"Brother Lu." Gongsun Cheng shouted loudly, as if he had woken up from the illusion.
Lu Hanjiang looked at him in surprise and tried to ask: "Brother Xian, what's wrong with you?"
"My little brother is fine, please excuse me, Brother Lu." Gongsun Cheng smiled cheerfully, but his two ferocious claws were trembling slightly, revealing the fact that he was not at peace in his heart.
Seeing the other party's current performance, Lu Hanjiang muttered to himself, according to what the great elder said during his lifetime, it is not impossible for a person who falls into an illusion to wake up on his own, but the probability is very low.
Although Gongsun Cheng has now escaped from the shackles of the illusion with his own perseverance, the price he paid is too heavy.
And at this moment, Gongsun Cheng's whole body was filled with an aura of violence. Although his words and deeds seemed to be polite, but just like that, it made people even more frightened.
Previously, Gongsun Cheng suppressed all his emotions in his heart. He looked like a powder keg wrapped in layers. Although there was a risk of explosion, it was difficult to touch his pain points with ordinary means.
But now, all the triggers that could make him explode have been exposed. It seems that just one light word can ignite all his emotions.
Lu Hanjiang estimated that this should be the sequelae of Gongsun Cheng's escape from the illusion. Although he was no longer trapped by the illusion, all the evil thoughts and desires in his heart were infinitely amplified. In other words, he had turned from fire into demon at this moment. What he said and did, All controlled by inner demons.
Wouldn't everyone be happy if this was returned to the Gongsun family?
Lu Hanjiang hurriedly collected the Holy Spirit Gu insects, stepped forward and asked with concern: "Brother Xian, do you feel any physical discomfort? We will return to the Central Plains soon. Do you need to rest in the Miao land for more time?"
Lu Hanjiang deliberately kept a certain distance from Gongsun Cheng to ensure that the power of the Holy Spirit Gu would not affect him. He said warmly: "I have some friendship with Saint Caiwei. I just need to say hello, and my dear brother can rest peacefully in the Miao land. You don’t have to worry about no one taking care of you.”
"Brother Lu, no need."
Gongsun Cheng shook his head and said with a somewhat excited expression: "I feel better than ever before. Please don't worry, Brother Lu. I am preparing to bid farewell to my eldest brother."
"Oh? Brother Xian, are you looking away? Do you plan to go back to Gongsun's house to have a look?" Lu Hanjiang asked, testing, or deliberately guiding.
"Yes, I have figured it out and ran out without saying a word. That is what a coward does. I should go back to the family and get back what belongs to me in the right way." Gongsun Cheng said, as if he was swearing. It's like a declaration.
"That would be great."
Lu Hanjiang glanced at the corpse on the ground as if unintentionally and asked, "By the way, is this Miss Yan'er?"
"She's fine!"
Gongsun Cheng's voice suddenly became several times louder, his eyes were filled with nervousness and alertness, his whole body was tense, and his two hands that had nowhere to rest were trembling violently.
"She was just too tired and fell asleep. Brother Lu, I will take her back first."
With that said, without giving Lu Hanjiang a chance to continue speaking, Gongsun Cheng picked up Gongsun Yao's body and quickly fled the place.
Lu Hanjiang looked at his back and smiled meaningfully. At a certain moment, he realized that burning all the flowers was a waste.
He began to search along the edge of the stone chamber, but unfortunately, something happened, and all the flowers in the stone chamber withered, not even a single one was spared.
After searching for a long time to no avail, Lu Hanjiang had no choice but to give up. He turned around and walked out. During this period, Chi Cangping's body had been hastily buried without a tombstone, no eulogy, and no offerings.
Chi Qianyun disappeared. When Lu Hanjiang went out and asked, he found out that the girl and Gongsun Cheng had all left the Dead Farewell Valley, and it seemed that they planned to leave without saying goodbye.
But Lu Hanjiang didn't care. The world was so big and they would meet again.
"Master Lu, thank you for your hard work." Seeing Lu Hanjiang coming out, Caiwei immediately came up to greet him and said.
She saluted Lu Hanjiang and said solemnly, "With this bow, I thank Master Caiwei for risking his life to get rid of this miasma for the people of Miao territory."
Lu Hanjiang held up a hand and said modestly: "Miss Caiwei, you don't have to be like this. The Great Elder has long been cooperating with my Xiangyun Company. It's my duty to help you this time."
Caiwei smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, the Lingyue clan is now dominated by me. From now on, Xiangyun Company will be the most noble friend of our clan. The master has eliminated a great harm to the Miao territory. I will tell all the people about this matter. At this time, other tribes will also be grateful for the kindness of the young master."
"How can I afford this?" Lu Hanjiang laughed: "But since the girl insists on doing this, I will be disrespectful."
"Young master, you deserve it. If you hadn't sent the Holy Spirit Gu worms this time, the Miao border would have been in catastrophe. I don't know how many people would have died." Caiwei said with some fear.
Lu Hanjiang stared at her for a while, and Caiwei said strangely: "Master, what is wrong with what Caiwei said?"
"No, I just feel that a girl's innocence is rare in today's world." Lu Hanjiang shook his head and said with emotion.
"Young master, you are too praised." Caiwei lowered her head in embarrassment.
Lu Hanjiang thought to himself, no wonder the great elder would cooperate with him in such a manner before. It seems that he is really worried about this saint. It seems that Caiwei's character is really not suitable for survival in the mixed rivers and lakes.
Lu Hanjiang confirmed that Caiwei's words just came from his heart. There was something in his words, and the other party didn't notice it at all. Although such simple people are cute, they can't stay alone in the turbulent world.
No wonder the Grand Elder would turn to Jin Yiwei so decisively. If it were him, he would probably make the same decision. After all, it is better to be an accomplice of Jin Yiwei and be called a lackey than to be deceived by a group of righteous people. If Xiu Chun Dao kills a ghost, the Miao people's thousand-year inheritance may be destroyed in one day.
"correct."
Lu Hanjiang thought of something, took out the body of the Holy Spirit Gu, and asked Caiwei: "This Gu is indeed a sacred object of Miao territory, and its effectiveness is amazing. I wonder if Miss Caiwei is willing to part with me?"
"this"
Caiwei was stunned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment: "Young master, please forgive me, the Holy Spirit Gu is a spiritual creature passed down from generation to generation in Miao territory. The rules in the clan cannot be broken. I'm afraid Caiwei will not be able to obey your request."
"It's just a joke, girl, don't take it too seriously." Lu Hanjiang smiled and handed the Gu insect back to Caiwei.
Caiwei accepted the Holy Spirit Gu Insect and looked a little embarrassed. She whispered: "Although Caiwei cannot make the decision to give this thing to the Young Master, if the Young Master needs it in the future, he can come to the Lingyue Clan to borrow it, but there is something Please, no excuses."
"No, Miss Caiwei has misunderstood. I was just joking casually."
Lu Hanjiang wanted this thing to be of no use, and not only was it useless, it would easily bring trouble to himself because of the name of the Treasure of Immortality. It would be better to stay in Miao territory, which would save trouble and at the same time be able to use it as bait. Try it and see if it works. Catching whoever comes.
While the two were chatting and joking, a flying horse suddenly arrived in the distance. Lu Hanjiang took a closer look and saw that it was the men of the Jin Yiwei. He saw the knight with a hurried expression dismounted from his horse, bowed and handed over a letter: "Sir, the Eighth Route Army of the North Land." Baili expedited!"
