The sun finally rises.
The thin morning fog dispersed the night, and the sunlight dispersed the morning fog.
The strong and durable winch ropeway rotated again, connecting the passage up and down the mountain, ending the isolation of Jingzhe Villa on the cliff.
"Blizzard Villa" has been opened.
The survivors came to the winch and were still talking and laughing while waiting for the hanging basket to be loaded.
Meng Huazhou originally wanted to ask Black Widow to have a rest at the villa, and then set off together the next day. Black Widow used the excuse of being worried about the safety of the disciples below and wanted to take her companions down the mountain to rest. Xu Siyao also wanted to escape from this ghost place, so naturally he wanted to follow. Walk.
Meng Huazhou thought to himself that the Black Widow would not be able to let go of the future of the village owner and the dream of the fairy city. She would definitely not be able to run away. He did not want to scare the snake. If she left, he could take the opportunity to arrange something, so he agreed and personally sent it to the winch. Have someone start the hanging basket and send people down.
The disciples were installing the hanging basket, but they saw that the ropeway was sliding upwards, and then a hanging basket rose up on its own.
This shows that someone from below took the initiative to come up.
Meng Huazhou was slightly surprised. Although there was smooth communication between the upper and lower levels of Jingzhe Villa, it was obviously dominated by those at the top. In addition to the disciples below who will report the news from all parties on time every morning, they can only come up if they wait for the summons from the village.
But now is not the time to report the information, as no one should come forward.
Did something happen down there?
Meng Huazhou felt nervous and had a headache. At this time, he certainly hoped that there would be as few surprises as possible.
However, things did not develop as he expected. The hanging basket came up quickly, and sitting there was a disciple who looked anxious and embarrassed, with blood stains on his clothes. He came up and shouted: "Urgent, urgent! I want to see the protector. …”
As soon as he yelled a few words at the top of his lungs, he was stunned. It turned out that several pairs of cold eyes looked over.
"Uh..." They are all big shots.
The disciple stuttered for a moment, then looked for the person with the highest status that he recognized, and said respectfully: "Young Master..."
But Meng Huazhou didn't recognize him and didn't bother to talk nonsense. He said directly: "What are you arguing about? If the sky falls, it won't be your turn to yell. Tell me, what's the matter?"
The disciple remembered his mission and organized the speech: "There was a big incident at the bottom of the mountain last night. Everyone died. Those little Gu fighting boys... caused a big trouble. They were simply..."
】
Black Widow frowned and looked at Tang Zhao. Tang Zhao was also frowning.
Meng Huazhou didn't even know that there was a temporary Gu fight at the foot of the mountain, and said: "Everyone died? Who died? Why is there another Gu fight? Start from the beginning and say it carefully. If the preface and the follower are so inconsistent, how can the people below do it? Will I ask you to report back?"
The disciple swallowed his saliva and had no choice but to follow his instructions and start from the beginning, saying: "The Gu fight... was the Gu fight held at the foot of the mountain last night. The participants were all young disciples brought by the leaders. According to the rules The owner of the village ordered that these young ones be stuffed into the Broken Dragon Cave for a Gu fight. It was not to select them, but to kill the people coming from outside first. We drove them into the cave to smear the Gu fight. When the time came, Only those who are alive can come out..."
Black Widow sneered. Meng Huazhou was a little surprised, but he didn't take it to heart. It was normal for Jingzhe Villa to hold a Gu fight. He would do it if there was a reason, but he would do it if there was no reason. Just find someone to kill him casually. Yamashita There are several battlefields specially built for Gu fighting on the mountain. Even when he was a child, he participated in several unfair Gu fights.
Not to mention the junior disciples, several leaders died yesterday. Who cares about the lives of those juniors? The only thing he was worried about was the Black Widow's disciples. If too many died and aroused resentment, it would be unreasonable.
He asked: "Who survived? How many died?"
The disciple said: "We don't know either. At night we opened the cave door and found that the cave was full of blood. I don't know how many people died..."
Meng Huazhou said impatiently: "What about after counting?"
This disciple is really a waste. Could it be that he doesn’t even know how to take inventory after the Gu fight? You wouldn't really make a fuss and report the news just because a few young disciples died, right?
The disciple showed a look of embarrassment and said: "No... I didn't have time to count. We were attacked as soon as we entered. Old Zhao was tortured to death. Brother Du and I were thrown into the cave and locked up. Outside Someone shouted loudly, asking us to perform a Gu fight to show them. Of course we refused, so they just locked us up and left."
Meng Huazhou said in shock: "You losers were killed by the young disciples? How many of them are there? How many of you are there?"
The disciple said ashamedly: "I... don't know how many people there are. At first there were three of us, but then... people were thrown in one after another, there should be more than ten. Probably all the brothers at the foot of the mountain were thrown in They were caught. I don’t know how they did it. They sealed the door and only told us to fight with Gu. We broke the door several times but couldn’t get it open..."
Meng Huazhou turned back to look at Black Widow and said, "Sister, your men are really hiding dragons and crouching tigers."
In fact, the disciple did not say that it was Black Widow's people who did it, but Meng Huazhou acquiesced that it was her people. Because Black Widow performed amazingly in the Gu fight, sweeping away the others in half the night, and a strong general had no weak soldiers, so if anyone could carry out a counter-attack, it would probably be hers.
On the contrary, it would be somewhat disharmonious if those dead ghosts had such capable men and yet they themselves failed miserably.
Black Widow smiled and did not refute, and glanced at Tang Zhao from the corner of her eye.
She also knew her own methods. It would be great if someone could win the Gu fight alive. How could she plan a counter-attack in an orderly manner? Most likely it was Tang Zhao's people who did it.
This is called a strong general who has no weak soldiers.
The disciple continued: "This morning, I found that the cave door was unlocked and I opened it. As a result, all the thieves ran away and no one was left. I came up to report..."
Meng Huazhou suddenly said: "Wait... this morning? You opened the door this morning, but what did you do last night?" He stared at the blood and scars on the disciple's body, and he had already guessed the answer.
The disciple paused for a moment and said: "Last night... I... Gu Du..."
Meng Huazhou almost laughed, but in the end he just said: "So you are the winner of this Gu fight? You are so obedient. If they ask you to fight Gu, you fight. What about the others? How many survived?"
The disciple felt shy for a moment and finally said: "Brother Du was still alive when I came out. I couldn't bear it..."
Meng Huazhou said calmly: "There is love and justice."
In fact, he was not very angry. Among the disciples of Jingzhe Villa, who had never experienced a Gu fight? Who doesn’t know the dangers of Gu fighting? When you get into a Gu fight, no matter how you got in, the most important thing is to live hard. Even if you don't want to, others will make decisions for you. That disciple could survive a night of Gu fighting, which means that he is not as good as the young disciples outside, but higher than other trash, that's all.
Meng Huazhou lucked out and reluctantly accepted the fact that he had lost another batch of trash. He remained calm in front of the Black Widow. He did not get angry with this disciple. There was no need to rush to deal with him. The person he wanted to deal with was There were too many people, but he had no interest in this person and just said: "You lead the way, let's go take a look."
The disciple took several people down the mountain. Meng Huazhou went down with Black Widow and other people from other courtyards, sat down in two large baskets, and went down the mountain.
When we came to the foot of the mountain, we stepped onto the purple soil again, and smelled the smell of burnt lake in the air. Meng Huazhou was familiar with the roads under the mountain, so he didn't need to ask where the Dragon Broken Cave for Gu Dou was, and walked directly to the cave.
A few people walked through a forest and saw the shadow of a cave in the distance.
These people walked very quickly, and no one noticed anything strange about the light in the woods.
When Tang Zhao came here, he was already at the end. He avoided other people's eyes, turned slightly sideways, and his figure immediately disappeared from the sun. At this time, he was in another area deep inside. In this area, the arc of the light irradiated by the entire area shifted, and an invisible blind spot appeared. Only from a specific angle could it be discovered that there was a person hiding here.
A young man with an average appearance, exactly like "Tang Zhao", stood opposite each other, as if looking in the mirror.
"Tang Zhao" took the initiative to enter the illusion and said: "Mr."
Tang Zhao, who was hiding in the illusion, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Wei Se. Only you could do two games last night."
Wei Se shook his head and said: "I'm not in a hurry. Gu fighting is not a waste of time. In fact, sir, I want to protect the young people from other forces as much as possible, but some people don't listen to my instructions, but really want to take it seriously." To participate in the Gu fight, I have no choice but to..."
Tang Zhao said directly: "We are all here, don't say anything else. Everyone's choices are different, and their destinies are also different. Are Jiao Feng and the others okay?"
Wei Se said: "Brother Jiao is fine, and so is the girl from Black Spider Villa. There is another one who is not very obedient, so I had to control him and make him suffer some injuries. Now that they are gone, I will let Jiao Feng Lead the team and find a place to hide away from Jingzhe Villa."
Tang Zhao said: "That's good. Let's change it back."
After confirming that Jiao Feng and the others were safe, he stopped asking other people. In Jingzhe Villa, there is really no point in asking these things.
Wei Se nodded and directly applied some smear on his face. Although he didn't have a completely new face, it instantly looked different from Tang Zhao's face.
Tang Zhao instructed: "You hide here first. I made this illusion with a diopter and can dispel it on my own initiative. Take the diopter with you when you leave. Don't go to Yunzhong City this time, just stay here to clean up." , I was in a hurry last night, and I don’t know if there is anything not thoughtful. Please help me clean it up, and don’t let anyone follow the clues to find it. Otherwise, I don’t care. It’s not good to implicate the owner of Yin Village. She didn’t know about it in the first place. "
Wei Se agreed and said: "You have to be careful when going to Yunzhong City. There are people on your journey with evil intentions. One is Meng Huazhou and the other is Yue Lai. Both of them have murderous intentions. Meng Huazhou is pointing at everyone, Especially Yue Lai and Black Widow, I don’t see who Yue Lai is targeting.”
Tang Zhao didn't ask how Wei Se could tell. Identifying murderous intent was Wei Se's specialty, so Tang Zhao had no reason not to believe it. He said: "Meng Huazhou is targeting the Black Widow? He really listens to me. Master Gui Yin's efforts in Jingzhe Villa have all been in vain. There is nothing we can do about it, now we are clear between the enemy and ourselves."
He shook his head and added: "As for him wanting to kill Yue Lai, that's perfectly natural. After all, Yue Lai is his father-killing enemy."
