Chapter 23 Loyalty
Time passed little by little, and as the footsteps got closer and closer, Xie Qushui's heart became more and more nervous.

She didn't know why her brain suddenly came up with the idea of ​​pretending to be dead.

The footsteps finally stopped when they were still some distance away.

He did not continue to approach or leave. The man seemed to stop and observe, and did not move for a while.

As a result, Xie Qushui became more and more uneasy, fearing that they would be found to be pretending to be dead, and even more afraid that whether the person was abnormal or not, they would be stabbed again.

Maybe it was because he wasn't very good at holding his breath, or maybe he was too nervous, but Xie Qushui's breath was inexplicably blocked.

To make matters worse, a small bug flew into her nostrils just when she was feeling uncomfortable.

It’s over, it’s so itchy!

What should I do if she really wants to sneeze?
Xie Qushui held on with all his strength, trying to hold on until the man left, but things didn't work out as he couldn't hold back something like a sneeze.

"Ah... Chirp!"

Under the strong pressure, the little sneeze was still not completely suppressed, but because of the desperate control, the little bug still stayed firmly in the nostril to cause trouble.

Xie Qushui's heart felt cold, and for some reason he felt that the air around him became quieter.

Has it been discovered?
It was discovered.

However, the paused steps still did not make any new moves.

Maybe that person just paid attention to something else, maybe he really didn't hear it?
She endured the panic and discomfort and continued to pretend to be dead with a slight chance, hoping that the man would leave quickly.

But the next moment, Xie Qushui couldn't hold it back again and sneezed again.

The sound of the sneeze this time was so earth-shattering that no one could ignore it unless they were deaf.

Xie Qushui was really in despair now.

What's even more hateful is that Bucheng, who was also lying next to him and pretending to be dead, suddenly burst out laughing for some reason.

At the critical moment of life and death, this person still had the intention to laugh at her?

Thinking of this, Xie Qushui was so angry that he broke the jar, got up and punched Bucheng twice.

"Let you laugh at me, let you laugh at me! Haven't you ever sneezed? You're laughing your ass off!"

Even as she cursed, she couldn't help but laugh. She couldn't stop herself.

For a time, the entire Linggu was filled with laughter.

……

Looking at this pair of young boys and girls who did not know whether to live or die, Gu Shouye, who had waited for a moment, interrupted directly: "Have you not laughed enough? Can you pretend to be dead and pretend to be smiling instead?"

Maybe it was because he was older and didn't understand how these two people could still laugh at such a time.

Did he not kill enough people, or was the sword in his hand blunt, so it was not a deterrent enough?

"Senior, forgive me, we didn't mean it!"

Xie Qushui had laughed enough, and now his rationality completely returned. Looking at the person in front of him, his scalp suddenly felt numb.

But now, she could only treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor, and quickly pulled Bu Cheng to salute respectfully: "Senior Mingjian, we are not from this sect. I was afraid that I could not explain clearly and was confused, so I used I used the stupidest method to pretend to be dead to avoid disaster. However, I messed up everything, so I asked seniors to spare us a small life. "

The middle-aged uncle in front of them was not angry and intimidated, and the natural suppression from the high-level monks prevented them from doing anything messy.

"Stop talking nonsense, who are you? Where did you come from? Why are you here?"

Gu Shouye naturally knew that Xie Qushui and the others were not, otherwise he would have been in the mood to watch them pretend to be dead and go crazy. He would have killed all the men, women, children, chickens, dogs, cattle and horses from the Liufeng Sect long ago.And he clearly remembered that there were no outsiders in Liufeng Sect when the barrier was sealed.

"Senior, junior Bucheng, her name is Xie Qushui, the two of us are from a remote island."

Bu Cheng grabbed Xie Qushui who subconsciously wanted to answer, took a step forward and saluted again and replied: "I don't know exactly what happened at that time. I only know that a beam of light suddenly appeared in the sky and enveloped us, and then we passed out. .When I woke up again, I was here inexplicably."

Compared to Xie Qushui, Bu Cheng is more mature after all.

He knew in his heart that in front of such a high-level monk, lies would only anger the other party, but telling the truth would not only be a lot of trouble, but also sound more like lying, so Bu Cheng directly combined [-]% truth and [-]% falsehood, at least listening to There is no big problem in getting up.

"is it?"

After hearing this, Gu Shouye didn't know what he was thinking. He neither said he believed it nor said he didn't believe it.

After a pause, he raised his eyebrows before continuing: "You should have some accomplices, where are they? Where are they hiding?"

"What accomplice? Senior, there are only two of us together, there is no one else."

Xie Qushui did not expect that the Jindan monk would say this. For a moment, he did not care whether the other party was testing or guessing, and immediately denied the existence of Boss Jiangtang.

Even though the man in front of him didn't do anything to them for the time being, who knows if he wanted to deceive the boss as well and catch them all in one go.

"Just you two? No one else?"

Gu Shouye's eyes glanced back and forth on the faces of Xie Qushui and Bu Cheng: "You think about it clearly before we talk, otherwise... I will send you down now to go with the people from the Liufeng Sect."

"It's just the two of us, there's really no one else."

Xie Qushui shook his head firmly again, not flinching even in the face of death threats.

"Senior, there really is no one else."

Bucheng did not change his words. If he really died here today, there would be no need to drag him to Jiangtang for burial.

It's just their bad luck. They encountered such bad luck when they first came out. The only one who survives is the one who counts.

"Haha, you are loyal."

Gu Shouye sneered: "It's just that the three of you arrived together. I already knew it. With your skills, you still want to hide it from me?"

After hearing this, Xie Qushui and Bu Cheng's expressions darkened. Knowing that they could not be deceived, they simply shut their mouths and said nothing.

The two people's attitude of treating death as a matter of course and doing whatever they wanted made Gu Shouye amused.

It’s true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. The two little things, who are just in the middle stage of Qi refining and have not yet fully grown their hair, have a bit of courage and backbone.

I just don't know if the one who is hiding is worth risking his life to protect.

"Since you insist on talking about loyalty, then no wonder I am cruel."

Gu Shouye raised his hand, and instantly a simple bronze sword appeared, floating next to him.

The bronze sword made a series of sword sounds, and the terrifying murderous intention was wrapped in the amazing sword energy, and it went straight towards Bucheng and Xie Qushui.

The golden elixir monk took action, and one sword strike was enough to kill two young Qi refining rookies.

Under such strong pressure, Xie Qushui and Bu Cheng could not move at all. They could only watch and wait for death to come.

However, the imagined painful death did not occur.

Several extremely thick earth walls blocked their way. At the same time, the two of them were rolled up by the familiar long whip and instantly escaped the range of the bronze sword energy attack at an astonishing speed.
