Save my wife all over the world

Chapter 134 Swordsman and Demon Slayer (2)

==============================

Gu Zhong had no choice but to retreat abruptly, avoiding the falling golden seal.

A familiar figure appeared in front of them.

His originally handsome and cheerful face was full of gloom, and he was no longer in high spirits.

A decadent aura exudes from the inside out.

"Chu City?"

Ling Yan yelled in surprise, and quickly stepped forward to stand beside Gu Zhong, making a gesture of shoulder to shoulder.

"Miss Ling, you still have a chance to turn around now."

Chu Cheng held up the golden seal again and turned towards Gu Zhong.

"Only you?"

After waiting for a while, no one from the National Teacher's Mansion appeared, Gu Zhong couldn't help being a little surprised.

"It's enough for me to deal with you alone."

Chu Cheng said angrily, and immediately threw the golden seal at Gu Zhong again.

"That will disappoint you."

With a few jumps, Gu Zhongqing dodged Jin Yin's seemingly dazzling and unexpected attack.

"Chucheng! Stop it! There are so many people in this flower building, why don't you care about their lives?"

Ling Yan stood in front of Gu Zhong and sternly reprimanded him.

"One of you has died in front of you."

Chu Cheng looked at the corpse that had been broken into two pieces not far away.

"That's right, she's already dead, since the moment she was possessed by a demon—an immature method of seizing her body."

Gu Zhong obviously had another explanation.

"Recently, the girls in Fireworks Lane have disappeared one after another. We are sure that this is the work of a monster. It was finally lured to show up tonight—"

If it wasn't for Chu Cheng's sudden obstruction, the demon might not have escaped so easily.

Ling Yan said indignantly, with a bit of angry blame.

"There is a monster behind you, Miss Ling, why are you still obsessed with it?"

Chu Cheng ignored her words, but looked at her with a heartbroken expression.

"Chucheng! You are the one who is obsessed with obsession! When did Gu Zhong do something harmful? How many lives did she give you along the way?"

Ling Yan's question made Chu Cheng stunned, but the hesitation was only for a moment, and then he retorted firmly.

"Have you forgotten about the Qingxi Taoist Temple? Even you and I almost died."

"Chucheng, if I want to kill you, just because you are the only one here now, you are already dead, and you are allowed to talk nonsense in front of me?"

Gu Zhong raised the sword that was shining with cold light in his hand, with a contemptuous tone.

She does have this strength.

"That's why you still want to continue to deceive Miss Ling!"

Chu Cheng has his own set of theories.

"Why did you lie to me?"

Ling Yan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, it couldn't be just to lie to his feelings, right?

"...Who knows what the demon's mind is?"

Chu Cheng didn't know the answer to this question, after all, he was just talking nonsense just now.

"Oh? What happened to the corpse on the ground? Why am I still killing people?"

With a sneer, Gu Zhong lifted his chin and gestured towards the blood-stained area.

"...This...you just made up a nonsense, Miss Ling can't believe it."

Realizing that there were loopholes in his logic, Chu Cheng almost shook his cognition.

But in his eyes, monsters can never be good people, and Gu Zhong can never be trusted, so even a word of Gu Zhong can't be trusted.

Since he was a child, he has been indoctrinated with the evilness of demons and the suffering of human beings. He has always regarded slaying demons and demons as his inescapable accusation, which has become an indelible belief.

It was extremely difficult for him to accept the fact that Gu Zhong might be harmless.

"Chucheng—you should wake up. The problem is not Gu Zhong, but the National Teacher's Office! Do you know what happened that day after you ran out of the Demon Slaying Palace?"

Ling Yan took a deep breath, wishing to split Chu Cheng's brain with his palm and pull out his dead brain.

"What's the matter?"

"I was imprisoned by your good senior brother. Do you know that there is an underground prison in the back mountain of the National Teacher's Mansion, which is bottomless?"

"This is impossible···"

Chu Cheng was stunned, he was willing to believe what Ling Yan had personally experienced, but he was absolutely unwilling to admit that there was something wrong with the National Teacher's Office that raised him and taught him.

"Ling Ying, is the monster that really caused troubles everywhere! That day Gu Zhong sneaked into the National Teacher's Mansion to save me, and he didn't hurt a single person—but we almost died—"

Ling Yan briefly described the situation that day to Chu Cheng.

Chu Cheng's eyes widened throughout the whole process, with an expression of disbelief.

"But... Ling Ying is dead."

After listening to Ling Yan's narration, he was silent for a while, and then he spoke with deep doubts.

——Ling Ying is dead? !

The sudden news struck them like a bolt of lightning, shocking them in place.

The default future national teacher died so easily?

Gu Zhong immediately pulled Ling Yan behind him to protect him, and looked at Chu Cheng vigilantly.

That guy will never die easily, not to mention that Ling Yan just chopped off its arm again.

Perhaps it was just that he was not satisfied with the mutilated body, and chose to transfer the possessed person.

And Chucheng in front of him - the only person who can still ascend to the position of national teacher, is its best choice!

They don't know how to tell, because its performance is enough to be fake, unless there are special directional clues.

The already relaxed atmosphere became tense again.

The difference is that the person whose identity is suspicious has been replaced by a different person.

"You...doubt me now, am I possessed?"

No matter how dull people are, they can also perceive this distrust.

"If it's true that Gu Zhong is under the control of that monster as you said, you can't stand here properly at this time."

It was rare for Chu Cheng's mind to become logically clear, and he used the paradigm that Gu Zhong refuted him just now.

"You believe it?"

Sensing the change in his tone, Gu Zhong raised his eyebrows, and suspicion was more deeply imprinted on her face.

How could he believe this story so easily, and then change his attitude?

"I don't believe in you, I believe in Miss Ling."

Chu Cheng pursed his lips, turned his gaze to Ling Yan, and put away the gold seal.

"Then what if Ah Yan is also possessed, can the demon not only possess one person?"

Seeing his affectionate look, Gu Zhong felt upset, and couldn't help but continue to stir up his emotions, so as to beat this man uprightly.

"Take care!"

As if seeing through her thoughts, Ling Yan gave her a dissatisfied look, then turned to Chu Cheng and said.

"We don't know why it didn't choose you as its object of possession, this is an indelible doubt.

You also don't believe that Gu Zhong is completely innocent.

Since we can't trust each other very much, and we don't have the will to continue fighting, it's better to work together to solve the monster thing here. "

"That's exactly what it should be."

The respondent, Gu Zhong, immediately nodded in agreement.

Chu Cheng glanced at her annoyedly, stepped forward, and turned over the old bustard's face-down corpse with his hands.

"Speaking of which, I have another question—how did you come to this fireworks alley?"

Gu Zhong watched his movements, and suddenly asked again.

"The government office has received a few reports of disappearances here, and not many people care about them. I suspect it's a demon—"

Chu Cheng glanced at Gu Zhong, and the words hidden in it were self-evident.

"You came alone?"

Ling Yan couldn't quite understand his behavior. He knew that Gu Zhong was an existence that the entire National Teacher's Mansion could not resist. If he was really a devil, wouldn't he die in vain?

"···"

Chu Cheng looked at Ling Yan with flickering eyes, without saying a word.

As a bystander, Gu Zhong could understand what Chu Cheng was thinking - if this was really Chu Cheng, he would not want Ling Yan to suffer any harm no matter what.

During the conversation, Chu Cheng had carefully inspected the old bustard's pale body.

The corpse was still warm, as if it was still alive last second.

Blood flowed from under the broken body, staining the cashmere carpet red.

Chu Cheng made an unexpected move.

He roughly ripped off the old bustard's clothes until nothing remained.

"What are you doing?"

Ling Yan exclaimed and covered her eyes with her hands.

"Red thread..."

Chu Cheng looked at the red circle around his waist on the lower half of his body, and murmured.

Gu Zhong also squatted down, staring at this strange place.

The red line showed a dark red color, as if drawn on by blood that had lost its luster, but when it was applied by hand, it did not move at all.

If it is a tattoo, it does not have any unevenness caused by blood scabs.

It's there, like it was born there.

"You may not know that during this period of time in Huajie, apart from the missing cases, there have been some more dead with unknown causes, all of whom are the servants and maids in the building.

But without exception, they all have such a red line around their waists. "

"It's also very likely that they were the last to have contact with the missing women—"

Gu Zhong and Chu Cheng looked at each other.

"So - this is likely to be a trace of a person who is possessed by a demon?"

Putting down her hand covering her eyes, Ling Yan shyly leaned beside Gu Zhong and joined in the analysis.

"If there really is a monster here that can possess others—"

For some reason, the scene in front of him always felt a little dazzling, Chu Cheng looked at Gu Zhong again and became angry again.

"It's still here."

Gu Zhong walked to the side of the railing, and looked down with his head. The flower building in the middle of the night is the bustling time.The guests cheered bursts, accompanied by the woman's charming smile.

The battle above ended too quickly, without disturbing the carnival of luxury and money in the slightest.

"But with so many people here, where will it be?"

Looking at the dense crowd, Ling Yan helplessly sighed.

This monster is really cunning, it is very difficult to find it after sneaking into the crowd, and it can also change its possessing objects without interruption.

If a magician is afraid of hurting ordinary people, he will become even more restrained and dare not act rashly.

Here is the home field of demons, and they are almost helpless.

"But... why is it still here?"

Gu Zhong stroked the mahogany railing with his fingers, tapped lightly to create a rhythm, and muttered.

The severely wounded demon did not flee immediately, but still swayed in place, which is not in line with the nature of all creatures seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

"Unless—it has a reason to remain here—"

These words were like a beam of fire, suddenly lighting up the fog of chaotic thoughts.
