Chapter 42 Can You Hear the Flute?
Just a moment.
The guards brought back a demon cultivator.
The demon cultivator was indeed hidden in Ruan Zhong's courtyard, his hands and feet locked by a curse. He had wounds on his hands and feet, and black blood dripped onto the road.
Ruan Hongzhi slowly walked out, his expression filled with hatred. "I heard the seal of the Myriad Demon Valley has been broken, and countless old demons have fled towards the Ruan family's territory. Ruan He, do you need the aristocratic family to settle this account?"
Ruan He opened his mouth and closed it again.
He had no way to argue anymore.
He acquiesced.
The Ruan family's ancestor was extremely angry, "Evil beast!"
He stretched out his arm and immediately sucked Ruan He into his hand. Without thinking, the ancestor of the Ruan family slammed his palm towards his Dantian spiritual root.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh—”
There was a sound of shattering.
Ruan He's shrill cry echoed in everyone's ears.
His spiritual roots were shattered; everything he had laid out and planned for so many years in order to attain enlightenment was shattered.
The faint sound of the flute in the distance stopped for a moment, as if in astonishment, or like the last moment of compassion.
The overall situation has been decided.
Jing Gan said, "I will take him back to the Wanjian Sect for trial. Is that okay with you, sir?"
The Ruan family's ancestor had nothing else to say, so he just waved his hand and let her go.
After getting the consent, Jing Gan waved his hand, and Ruan He was instantly locked around the neck with a long chain.
But Ruan He still didn't repent. He lay on the ground like a dead dog, staring at Ruan Wei with hatred in his eyes, "You are very good."
He closed his eyes. "I can't beat you—"
Suddenly, Ruan He suddenly raised his body, looking really crazy. He laughed wildly at Ruan Wei: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha——"
"There's no antidote for the Heart-Eating Gu!" Ruan He's veins bulged. "I may have lost, but you can't live either! Your innate spirit body was buried with me, so I didn't lose out! I didn't lose out, hahahahahahahaha!"
"Ruan Wei! Two years, you only have two years to live—"
“Snap—”
Xiao Xuan whipped Ruan He's mouth crooked with the same scabbard.
He looked extremely disgusted and said, "Shut your mouth."
Ruan Ruanzhi pulled his sister into his arms, preventing her from meeting Ruan He's eyes full of resentment.
Finally, tears welled up in his eyes and he lowered his eyes with hatred. He thought that Ruan He was vicious, but he never thought that there was no antidote for the heart-eating poison.
What about his sister?
She is only sixteen.
Two years later, he would just be an adult.
Ruan Wei was hugged so tightly by him that she could feel Ruan Ruanzhi's body trembling.
She patted Ruan Ruanzhi's back gently.
"Don't worry, just because he says there's nothing left doesn't mean there's nothing left. We still have two years to go, so we can just keep looking."
Anyway, in the original novel, she finally got the life-saving elixir, but the original owner was in love and took the initiative to give the life-saving thing to the male protagonist.
She has never had a love brain in her life.
The brain is redundant.
Ruan Wei's words instantly encouraged Ruan Ruanzhi. He sniffed and nodded, "Yes, I will definitely find it."
Strictly speaking, Ruan Ruanzhi already looks like an adult male. He looks very tough, as if he would firmly hold up the sky for Ruan Wei even if the sky and the earth collapsed.
"Okay." Ruan Wei chuckled, "I know my brother will be able to find it."
The guilt has been determined.
Ruan He was already covered in bruises from being beaten by Jing Gan——
Ruan Zhong, who was unconscious in the distance, was also taken away by the Ruan family guards. Similarly, the demon cultivator imprisoned by Ruan He also needed to wait for the trial of the ten major sects. All the guests in the room were politely asked to leave by the Ruan family ancestor.
Ruan Wei, "Ancestor, can you let me take some demon blood?"
"Third Master Uncle is useful as medicine."
She didn't say much about its use, but just pushed the blame onto Cui Yanjun.
Anyway, Cui Yanjun's reputation as a white-haired witch doctor was well-known throughout Tongzhou. She practiced medicine, witchcraft, and poison, and it was common for her to use demon blood as medicine.
At this time, the ancestor of the Ruan family was completely obedient to his own genius who was born with a spiritual body.
Since Ruan Wei asked for it, he quickly said, "Of course."
"Senior Brother."
Ruan Wei called Xiao Xuantong, and Xiao Xuantong nodded in understanding.
Knowing that the Ruan family still had some private matters to deal with, Xiao Xuantong took Chang Huaijin and Wu Yu with him.
finally.
Ruan Ruanzhi held Ruan Wei's trembling hand tightly.
The tragedy happened too suddenly. His father died in the battle, and the soldiers who stayed behind to help the two of them escape were also exposed and killed in the battle. The young Ruan Wei was also poisoned, and the only chance of survival was to stay in Penglai.
Ruan Ruanzhi could only lie low.
They were too young at the time, and their biggest umbrella of protection was torn apart by their uncles.
For four years, he endured and endured, patiently lurking in the dark and collecting evidence.
Great revenge!
The ancestor of the Ruan family walked up to Ruan Hongzhi and Ruan Wei with a sullen look.
They are the only generation left in the direct line of the Ruan family.
The Ruan family's ancestor said, "This time, our clan has let you down. The succession ceremony... will be held on another day. We will definitely not let this happen again next time. The Ruan family will also compensate you and your sister."
This means to resolve it privately.
But it doesn't matter. They made such a big fuss today that I'm afraid the news has spread all over Tongzhou by now.
Ruan Wei is very prudent in his work and will never leave Ruan He with even the slightest reputation.
What awaits Ruan He is only the contempt of everyone.
"Thank you, ancestor."
Ruan Ruanzhi obediently took over his position. He was better at dealing with the twists and turns of these aristocratic families than Ruan Wei.
That's true.
Their father was already dead, and no matter how angry or hateful they were, he would never come back.
It would be better to take back the position of head of the family.
By the way, trample Nguyen Ha and Nguyen Trung firmly.
Although Ruan Ruanzhi's current Jindan stage cultivation level meant he had little say in becoming the head of the family, the Ruan family only had three direct descendants left in this generation, and aristocratic families were very protective of their own shortcomings, so it was better than the young master he was currently in.
Ruan Weihui held her brother's hand, a gloomy hue brewing in her eyes. She looked at Ruan He, who was beaten by Jing Gan and was only breathing his last.
Ruan Wei laughed and said, "Ruan He, you're actually only one move short. Do you know where you're short of?"
The girl looked like Guanyin from the lotus, with a red dot between her eyebrows on her fair face that made her look even more distant.
Such a deity, Buddha, or exiled immortal, could reveal a hint of sarcasm in his lips and teeth:
"Can you hear the flute?"
Ruan He's eyes widened instantly, and bloodshot gradually crept up his eye sockets.
Is it him? !
Such a cruel person burst into tears instantly, with bean-sized drops of water rolling down his face. It seemed that at this moment, he felt a surge of regret in his heart, and he cursed in fear: "You, Ruan Wei, you are really, so cruel!"
The son actually judged the father!
Ruan He had never known the meaning of self-reflection in his life, but at this moment he felt truly regretful.
No wonder, no wonder that although the third brother is usually stupid, he is not as stupid as he is today.
No wonder I can usually perform so well, but today I felt a little anxious and impatient, and then I completely collapsed.
It’s the sound of a flute!
How could Ruan He have the face to see him?
-
In the distance, the flute sound stopped.
Ruan Jianjiang's face was already covered with tears, and he almost stopped playing the music.
When Ruan He finally admitted what he had done, Ruan Jianjiang finally bent down, his shoulders twitching and crying inconsolably.
A few days ago, Ruan Wei came to see me.
She said, "Cousin, you said you would return it to me, but it still counts."
"It counts, but—"
Ruan Wei, "Don't worry, I don't need you to deal with Ruan He. You just need to play a song to clear your mind outside the courtyard."
"The show doesn't stop, and your music won't stop."
Ruan Jianjiang remembered that he thought about it for a long time before finally nodding.
He was not unaware of Ruan Wei's intention. The song of Qingxin was for self-rectification. When hearing the song of Qingxin, one should choose to act with a righteous heart.
Under the Qingxin Qu, the monks will be influenced and will subconsciously question their own hearts and make choices that best suit their own personalities. Those with strong personalities will naturally resist in their minds.
This song is usually only used when breaking illusions and attaining enlightenment.
When Ruan Wei first studied music on the first floor of the Penglai Library, he discovered that this piece of music was of great talent.
Isn’t this a divine song that lowers intelligence?
One shot and you're stupid.
Ruan Wei tried it several times on Xiao Xuantong, but every time, Xiao Xuantong would inexplicably pull her hair.
But, it works!
Ruan Jianjiang understood that Ruan Wei wanted Ruan He to make the most truthful choice.
He was silent, but agreed.
Ruan Jianjiang didn't dare to say that he had no expectations at all. He still had some secret hopes in his heart.
Maybe? Maybe my father wasn't the person my cousin described him as? Maybe he just said something careless to me that day? Maybe he never did those things at all?
Before the knife pierces the flesh, people always have some hope.
But it finally got through, and the ground was covered with blood, making people dare not look at it anymore or think about it too much.
The song ends and the crowd disperses——
Ruan Jianjiang turned and left. He really didn't have the energy to meet anyone.
At this moment, he just wanted to rush back to the sect, sort out today's events in detail, and hand them over to his master for the decision.
The ending is that father and son become alienated.
Looking at Ruan He, who finally showed some remorse for the parent-child betrayal, Ruan Wei felt that the depression in his chest finally dissipated a little.
Yes.
Such a final chapter is worthy of the memorial service she has not attended for four years.
