"I'm sorry, I'll pay for your brother's life." I said and knelt down directly, and threw my meteorite iron demon-suppressing blade in the hands of Brother Guimen.
"And me." Heizi also ran back at this moment, facing Brother Guimen directly, and knelt beside me.
"I'll kill your brothers too." Zhou Jiaonan said and knelt down.
"Brothers, there are spirits in heaven. Your death was not in vain. Guimen did not die." The eldest brother of Guimen looked up at the sky with tears in his eyes.
"I thank you. If you kneel down, all my brothers' deaths will not be in vain." Brother Guimen retracted his gaze and looked at us.
"I feel bad...I killed the wrong person..." Heizi howled directly.
"No, you are killing evil people." Brother Guimen's words immediately made Heizi dumbfounded.
I stared at him blankly, and we were speechless at this moment.
The man in front of him is truly a Taoist, and his view of all things is completely beyond that of mortals.
"Even if a rat that has never destroyed food is killed, he still deserves to die because he is a rat and a pest." Brother Guimen looked at Heizi with a smile.
"But you are not..." Heizi could no longer control his emotions at this moment.
Peony and Begonia lowered their heads and cried.
"I hope there will be a day, but not today, when the grudges between you and me will be wiped out, and we will just pretend we have never met." Brother Guimen said and stood up.
"Your injury." Haitang called nervously.
"You have superb medical skills, and the Thirteen Needles of Guimen are in your hands. I can rest assured that I know my own body well and I'm fine." Brother Guimen comforted us in turn. This feeling was really uncomfortable.
"Why are you looking for Motherwort?" Peony asked in a low voice.
"This involves the secret knowledge of the ghost sect. I really can't disclose it, but I definitely don't use it to harm anyone." The eldest brother of the ghost sect finally told us frankly.
"They were all ruined by us." Zhou Jiaonan said, biting his lips.
"It doesn't matter if it's destroyed, but if that thing flows into the human world, all living beings will be destroyed." Brother Guimen's eyes were clear, and he was definitely not lying when he said this.
"What's your name?" Heizi's voice was hoarse.
"Ghost Mountain." The eldest brother of Guimen looked startled, smiled and clasped his fists.
"Zhao Quan." Heizi clasped his fists respectfully.
"Zhang Tianyi." I also cupped my fists and bowed.
"Zhou Jiaonan..." The three women also introduced themselves with fists clasped.
"It's my honor to get to know you all in this life." Guishan's smile was still clear.
"This brother..." Heizi looked at the dead ghost man with a bitter face.
"Just bury him here, this is the place where he fought for the last time." Guishan said as he looked around.
"I'll do it..." Heizi and I said at the same time.
That's all we can do now.
After burying the body of the man from the Gui Sect, Guishan did not erect a monument for him. He said that this was also the rule of the Gui Sect.
We took out the joss sticks and kowtowed to someone other than our master, uncle, and grandpa for the first time.
Not far away, Xiang Siqi kept looking at everything in front of her. She must have understood it more or less.
"Shall we see you off?" I took the initiative when we were leaving.
"You are with me, you have become evil, but that girl..." Guishan frowned and looked at Xiang Siqi.
"I won't tell, I don't know anything." Xiang Siqi waved her hand in panic.
"Can you just say I'm dead?" Guishan looked at Xiang Siqi with a smile.
"Okay, you are dead." Xiang Siqi was very well-behaved at the moment.
"Then you..." I still couldn't bear to leave the ghost mountain behind.
"There is food and drink here, so don't worry about me. I'll leave on my own after I'm injured." Guishan smiled and waved his hand.
We bowed deeply to the dead ghost man again, and bid farewell to the ghost mountain with a bitter look on our faces.
Not far after walking out, Haitang suddenly stopped, turned around and ran towards Ghost Mountain.
We were as surprised as Guishan, but we didn't move. Trust is that simple.
"This is for you." Haitang took out a small notebook and handed it over.
"What is this?" Guishan was confused and took it with a smile on his face.
"The Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate." Haitang raised her head with a sincere look.
"This..." The excitement on Guishan's face could not be expressed in words.
"Thank you..." After being stunned for a long time, Guishan squeezed out two words through his teeth.
"It was originally yours." After Haitang said that, he turned around and left quickly.
Even when she passed us, Haitang did not stop.
Looking at Haitang walking away, and then at Guishan who looked complicated as if he had found a treasure, we quickly pulled Xiang Siqi and ran in the direction where Haitang left.
"I'm sorry..." This was Haitang's first words when we caught up with her.
"What's the matter? It's all returned to its original owner." I quickly comforted him with a smile.
"No, actually I found out earlier than you that Guishan is not a bad person." Haitang stopped and looked at me.
".." I was stunned.
"So I wrote out the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate early in the morning, hoping that one day I could make up for this sin..." Haitang said, lowering her head in shame.
"Then why didn't you say it?" Heizi looked confused.
"I'm afraid you can't bear it, and I can't bear it myself..." Haitang shook his head violently.
"Haitang..." I quickly grabbed her shoulders.
"This is not your fault alone, we are all wrong." I said softly.
"I was wrong too..." Xiang Siqi, who had been silent all the way, suddenly said, which surprised us all, including Haitang.
"I always thought you were ignorant, but in fact I am the one who is ignorant." Xiang Siqi looked at us with a wry smile.
"Maybe I am wise and strong in my field, but in your field, I am just a weakling. I'm sorry, thank you for saving me, twice." Xiang Siqi continued.
"The thing you discovered must not be allowed to appear in the world, and you must not mention it again after you leave here, otherwise it will really lead to death." Mudan patiently explained to Xiang Siqi.
"I know, thank you." Xiang Siqi was so gentle to us for the first time.
"Let's go." I wanted to thank Xiang Siqi for changing the topic, but if I said that, the topic would be brought back again, so I had to move forward quickly.
It is not difficult to imagine how excited Xiang Wenchang was when he saw Xiang Siqi, and how grateful he was to us. After all, we saved his precious daughter twice.
I thought Xiang Siqi's politeness was a temporary measure, but I didn't expect this woman to really change.
Maybe it’s because he saw us and Guishan turning enemies into friends, or maybe he learned something about us as people.
"Dad, this place must be strictly sealed off." When Xiang Siqi made this request to Xiang Wenchang, I was a little surprised.
"Didn't you mean..." There was no need for Xiang Wenchang to hide it in front of us, but the motherwort was too sensitive, so Xiang Wenchang did not say it directly.
"I'm too superficial. If it weren't for these experts, I wouldn't have survived. That thing must never appear in the world." Xiang Siqi looked firm.
