Chapter 280 Variables
"stop!"
Just as the tip of the boy's knife touched the skin, a clear shout was heard.
He only felt a flash before his eyes and a pain in his wrist, and when he looked again, the knife in his hand had disappeared.
Soon after, several screams were heard in his ears. The big men who rushed towards him had all fallen outside the straw hut, rolling in the rain and mud, wailing.
He stared blankly at the woman in white who suddenly appeared in front of him. Her crystal-like light gray eyes gradually changed from being confused at first to showing some vigilance. She took a step back without making a sound.
Yun Qingqing threw the knife on the ground, raised her eyes and looked at the young man, the clear light in her eyes could hardly be suppressed.
She was shocked. She had never seen such a person in her two lives.
Although his soul is clear and pure without any impurities, he is burdened with a debt that even the most evil person would not be able to pay off in ten lifetimes.
Sin and debt have always had the same origin. Ordinary people can only be burdened with such a huge debt if they have committed enormous sins. If this were the case, they should have been thrown into the animal realm and suffered for hundreds of reincarnations. It would be impossible for them to be reincarnated as humans until they had paid off their debts.
The young man's soul was so clear, which clearly proved that he had never done anything wrong in this life or in his previous life.
He has done no evil, yet he is burdened with a debt from heaven. No wonder even the underworld can't figure out the situation.
But looking at such a soul, that evil calamity... doesn't seem to be related to him.
Yun Qingqing felt slightly relieved and her eyes softened a little.
"Who... are you?" The young man's timid voice sounded, and the sound, like the collision of jade, was extremely pleasant to the ears.
When she came to her senses, she saw that the vigilance had faded from that delicate yet fragile little face like porcelain, and her gray-crystal phoenix eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, as dazed and innocent as a deer.
"Tsk tsk!" Zhiluo suddenly climbed onto Yun Qingqing's shoulders and looked at the young man meaningfully.
In just a short while, Zhiluo had beaten up those big men in the rain, and they all lay on the street, unable to get up.
Zhiluo didn't have a drop of mud on her body, and came to join in the fun with a refreshed spirit.
"Even a vixen would feel ashamed to see this little thing!" Zhiluo exclaimed in amazement.
Hearing her words, the boy's face froze, he lowered his head and his thick long eyelashes covered the expression in his eyes.
Yun Qingqing glanced at Zhiluo speechlessly, then turned to the young man and said:
"Don't think too much about it. She didn't mean any harm by saying that."
Zhiluo was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that mortals used fox spirits as insults, so she nodded quickly:
"Yes, I just complimented you on your beauty. I definitely didn't mean to scold you!"
Yun Qingqing: "...just shut up."
Look at how fiercely he scratched his face with the knife just now. Do you think he would like you to praise his handsomeness?
Zhiluo didn't understand her look and looked at her innocently:
"I'm right, why are you looking at me like that..."
Yun Qingqing: “…”
The young man suddenly pursed his lips and raised his eyes, revealing a pure smile without a trace of impurities:
"Sister saved Ahan. If Sister likes my appearance, I am lucky."
"Hiss..." Zhiluo took a breath and tried hard to close her mouth before swallowing back the words "I told you, this is much more seductive than a vixen."
Yun Qingqing squatted down, stared at the boy for a moment, and said in a gentle voice:
"Your name is Ahan?"
The boy nodded and looked at her with bright eyes:
"Where's my sister?"
"My name is Yun Qingqing, and she is Zhiluo." Yun Qingqing smiled at him and stretched out her hand towards the boy's head.
The boy's body stiffened slightly, he pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, looking extremely well-behaved.
Yun Qingqing's hand stopped just before touching the top of his head, and she stood up with a deep look in her eyes.
The young man clenched his fists tightly, and heard a cold voice above his head:
"If you hate it, there's no need to endure it. Where did your courage to resist those people just now go?"
He paused for breath, raised his head and looked at her blankly.
"Do you want to escape the fate of being bullied?" Yun Qingqing said calmly.
The boy's eyes flickered for a moment, he pursed his lips and whispered:
"Sister, are you going to take me away?"
"If you're willing, come with me." Yun Qingqing threw him an umbrella and turned to walk out.
The boy watched the two people walk into the rain, took a deep breath, opened his umbrella, and followed them silently.
Under the cover of the rain, the confusion and innocence in the pair of light grey phoenix eyes had completely disappeared, leaving only a gloomy and indifferent cold light.
…
When they returned to the inn, the boy was almost staggering, but he still followed the two into the newly booked room without saying a word.
Yun Qingqing asked the waiter to bring hot soup and hot rice, and also arranged for hot water. She took out a pill and watched him eat it, then said:
"After dinner, go take a bath and relax, but don't sleep no matter how sleepy you are. Come directly to me after you take a bath. I have something important to do."
The pill had the effect of restoring strength and refreshing the mind, so she wasn't worried that he wouldn't be able to hold on.
Before leaving, Yun Qingqing took out a brand new set of men's robes and placed them on the bed:
"It may not fit well, let's just deal with it for now."
The boy nodded obediently, smiling at her with pure eyes:
"Got it, sister. See you later."
Zhiluo's mouth twitched, and she pulled Yun Qingqing away.
The two returned to the next room. Zhiluo finally let out a long sigh and pulled Yun Qingqing's arm and sighed:
"Did you see that? That guy is simply poisonous!"
Yun Qingqing pulled her away calmly:
"Okay, stop sighing. I still have something I need your help with."
…
After Zhiluo left, Yun Qingqing sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and entered the inner scene.
The starry sky in the interior scene did not seem to have changed much, but Yun Qingqing could clearly perceive that the starry sky was no longer as far away as before, and the stars were denser than before.
Thanks to the purification of the evil spirits in the Yin Summoning Flag Formation, her Qi Sea is now 20% full, which is much better than the emptiness before.
Therefore, it was much easier to deploy the Qimen Dunjia formation this time than usual.
She did not tell fortunes about Ahan's affairs.
The young man was too weird, and if he wasn't careful, something bad might happen.
Yun Qingqing had other plans for him.
The most important thing now is still the imminent disaster.
Yun Qingqing carefully moved the formation plate, and her heart gradually calmed down.
Thanks to the improvement in my cultivation, this hexagram went quite smoothly. Judging from the hexagram, I'm afraid I'll have to pay some price this time, but it's still within an acceptable range, so there's nothing to worry about.
Just as she had some idea in her mind, her eyes suddenly moved and she raised her hand to move the two plates of heaven and earth.
Two balls of light slowly floated in front of him. Yun Qingqing's eyes lit up and his expression suddenly became solemn.
Two variables.
One of the light balls was hazy and unclear, but she could tell that the trend was not dangerous and nothing would happen if she left it alone, so she waved it aside.
The problem lies in another variable.
The ball of light was half pure white and half black and red. The pure white half was so clean that there was not a trace of impurities.
The black and red half seemed to be stained with blood in the thick evil aura, emitting a very ominous smell.
What is this?
One thought makes you a Buddha, one thought makes you a devil... Such thoughts appeared intuitively in her mind.
Yun Qingqing frowned tightly, carefully re-cast a hexagram, his pupils shone brightly, and his fingertips began to flexibly move the formation plate.
The rotation speed of the sky disk gradually increases.
Although asking the sky divination is very risky, it involves countless lives in Pingzhou, so she must see clearly what the variable is.
