Mrs. Mo was sitting on a rosewood chair, and Dou'er stood beside her with a smile. Not far from the two of them, at the bottom of a slope was a huge oval pit three feet in size, filled with shiny black hair. water. One or two bubbles appeared in the water from time to time, showing a hint of weirdness.
There is a large iron cage hanging above the black pool. The man lying in the iron cage is Xiao Yunfan. A vicious smile suddenly appeared on Mrs. Mo's wrinkled face. She rolled her eyes at Shui Hanyan and said slowly: "You bitch, I'm in vain to treat you favorably, but you are thinking about this kid in your heart. Forget it, I am. Today I will show you how good I am."
Shui Hanyan walked slowly to the slope and looked down. She saw several plump crocodiles swimming slowly from the black pool to the shore. She was startled and involuntarily took a few steps back. She turned around, looked at Mrs. Mo, and asked: "Madam, Brother Xiao has no enmity against you, why do you insist on putting him to death?"
Mrs. Mo snorted coldly and said: "This kid is covered in pus and has a bad stomach. I invited him to drink with good intentions, but he plotted against me and destroyed the three wooden figures made by my late husband. What do you think I should do with him?" he?"
Shui Hanyan lowered his head, biting his lips, and said slowly with tears in his eyes: "Madam, this is all my fault. I...I am willing to marry the young master now, and I hope that the madam will be noble and let him go."
Xiao Yunfan was sleeping in a daze in the iron cage. Suddenly, a smoky cry came to his ears. He struggled to sit up and looked around. It turned out that he himself was locked in an iron cage, and in the distance was a rugged stone wall. He poked his head out of the iron fence again and looked down. Several crocodiles opened their bloody mouths and exposed their sharp fangs.
At this time, Shui Hanyan walked up to Mrs. Mo, knelt down and begged: "Madam, please spare Brother Xiao. He is a good person." Mrs. Mo pointed a finger at the iron cage and said: " He, he is a good person, and I am an evil person. Well, since you say so, this evil person has made up his mind today."
Shui Hanyan felt anxious and shook her head quickly: "No, no, I said the wrong thing. Madam is also a good person." Madam Mo rolled her eyes at her and said, "Don't put such a high hat on me, I don't want to eat this." Set. I said I would use this kid to feed my crocodiles. Dou'er, how about we feed the crocodiles today." Dou'er clapped his hands with a smile and said: "Okay, okay."
When Xiao Yunfan saw Shui Hanyan, he held the iron fence with both hands and shouted, "Sister Shui, are you okay?" Shui Hanyan felt happy when he heard Xiao Yunfan's voice, stood up and said loudly: "I, I'm fine. Brother Xiao, they are going to feed you to the crocodiles." As he spoke, tears flowed down.
Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "Feeding the crocodile, this is really fun. I also want to know whether it is my bones that are stronger or the crocodile's teeth." Mrs. Mo stood up and said to Xiao Yunfan: "You kid, you are coaxing your little lover when death is imminent. Be happy, since you want to die so much, then I will help you."
Shui Hanyan knelt in front of Mrs. Mo, pulled the hem of her silk shirt, and cried with tears on her face: "Please, please, don't let Brother Xiao die." Xiao Yunfan saw this, was moved in his heart, and said loudly "Sister Shui, you don't have to ask her. It's not that easy for this old godly woman to want me to die." Shui Hanyan glanced at Xiao Yunfan and said, "Brother Xiao, if you die, Yan'er will just accompany you." Then he stood up and prepared to walk towards the big pit.
At this time, Mrs. Mo reached out her chicken claw-like fingers from her sleeves, quickly touched the acupuncture points of the water-stained vest, and then stretched out her foot to kick her in the crook of the leg. With a plop, Shui Hanyan knelt down. Mrs. Mo pulled Shui Hanyan's hair and laughed wildly: "Xiao Nizi wants to die, it's not that easy. I want you to see with your own eyes how this brat was chewed into bones by crocodiles." When Shui Hanyan thought of bones, she His whole body was trembling, and his teeth could not help but chatter.
Seeing Mrs. Mo being so despicable, Xiao Yunfan couldn't help but get angry. He held the iron fence with both hands and roared: "Old godly woman, let her go." This roar was like a thunderbolt, and Mrs. Mo's eardrums couldn't help but sting. She pinched Shui Hanyan's chin and sneered: "Hey, your lover has a bad temper, but the old woman won't do this. You see, his small body is not enough for this crocodile to have a snack." With that said, he walked towards the mechanism that controlled the iron cage.
At this moment, Xiao Yunfan said loudly: "Old madam, it would be easiest for you to ask me to make crocodile snacks. But before I die, can you answer my three questions?" Mrs. Mo's hand stopped for a moment. , said: "Okay, I will help you."
Xiao Yunfan said: "The old lady once said that there are three things that Senior Mo did not do in his life, and the classics I saw in Senior Mo's tomb must have been written by Madam?" Madam Mo nodded and said: "Yes. Those books were written by me. .”
Xiao Yunfan said again: "I found a page missing from the book. Madam, can you let me take a look at the drawing, so that I can rest in peace even if I die."
Mrs. Mo took out a piece of paper from her arms, rubbed it with her palms, and rolled it into a ball. Hold the ball of paper between your right thumb and middle finger and flick it lightly. The paper ball flew to the iron cage like a meteor, Xiao Yunfan stretched out his hand to catch it. When I unfolded the paper ball, I saw that it was indeed the pattern of a Xuanji iron box and the pattern of dragon and phoenix double keys.
Xiao Yunfan said: "Thank you madam for the picture. The third question is, if madam dies, who will take care of your son?" Madam Mo's eyes flashed fiercely, and she shouted: "I think you talk a bit too much, so I'd better stay here." Go ahead and talk to the King of Hell." As she said that, she walked to a stone wall and stretched out her hand to press a stone twist.
Xiao Yunfan said calmly: "Madam, do you really think you have broken my alcoholic sword? To tell you the truth, my alcoholic sword needs blood to be extremely powerful. On the surface, it is extremely powerful. The person who is hit by the sword is no different from having his acupoint sealed. But in fact, the blood wrapped in the alcohol has already entered the opponent's body."
Mrs. Mo's palm stopped and said: "It's just a drop of blood that enters the opponent's body. So what's the point?" Xiao Yunfan shook his head and said: "Normally, there is nothing powerful about my blood entering the opponent's body. But. It is very different now. I have been poisoned by the Bashan Sect. And the blood in my body contains poison. I only have half a month to live now, so the drop of my blood entered my wife's body. She must have been poisoned now. Okay. , I have finished what I have said, you can just press the button and let me feed the crocodiles."
Mrs. Mo was hesitant and thought to herself: If this boy is telling the truth, I will also be poisoned at this moment. If I kill him, I can certainly relieve the hatred in my heart. But once the poison takes hold, my life will be in danger. No wonder his last question was, what will happen to Dou'er if I die? Yes, I can't die, I still have to take care of my Dou'er.
This guy is really cunning. He tricked me into handing over the drawings. If you want to talk about the things that the old ghost created, there are really countless. Although I have some impressions of this Xuanji iron box, after so many years, I will definitely not be able to recover it. Originally, I could use the blueprint to create the key and exchange it for the antidote, but now that the blueprint is in this kid's hands, if I kill him, it will be equivalent to killing myself.
Thinking of this, she finally lowered her hand, looked at Xiao Yunfan fiercely and said, "You are much more vicious than my old woman." Xiao Yunfan smiled and said, "Thank you, madam."
Suddenly, Mrs. Mo's face darkened and she said, "You want to deceive me?" Xiao Yunfan sighed: "Madam, if you don't believe me, you can try your luck and see if your Yufu point is a little itchy. Right now, this drawing is the only one for you and me. A way out. Although Mr. Xiao has the blueprint, he may not be able to forge the key. He also needs to rely on the skillful hands of his wife. If Mr. Xiao dies, everything will be over, but if his wife dies, I am afraid that no one will take care of me. "
Every word of his words touched Mrs. Mo's heart. However, Mrs. Mo was suspicious by nature. After stimulating the Qi, the Yufu point really felt numb and itchy, and the hand that was about to press the switch couldn't help but let go. down.
Seeing that his mother refused to do anything, Dou'er shouted: "Mom, why are you feeding the crocodile to the child? Why is that man still locked in a big cage?"
Mrs. Mo said with a cold face: "Okay, we won't look at it today." As she said that, she pressed her palm to the stone twist on the other side. There was a chirping sound, and the iron cage slowly rose up, and then slid to the ground along a track.
He followed her and opened the door of the iron cage.
After Xiao Yunfan walked out, he grabbed Shui Hanyan and reached out to untie her acupuncture points. Shui Hanyan threw herself into his arms and cried: "Xiao...Brother Xiao, I thought you would be eaten by a crocodile." Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "Silly girl, if Brother Xiao could be plotted so easily, his head would have been tricked. How many times have people been cut?"
Seeing her disheveled hair and tears in her eyes, Xiao Yunfan suddenly felt pity in his heart. Just now when Mrs. Mo launched an attack, she said that she would live and die with him, and she was even more moved in her heart.
Mrs. Mo said coldly: "Xiao Yunfan, when will you leave for Bashan?" Xiao Yunfan turned around and said, "It depends on what Madam wants."
Mrs. Mo said: "Then tomorrow."
Xiao Yunfan asked again: "Madam, do you know how far away Cuiwei Ju is from Bashan Sect?" Madam Mo snorted coldly and said, "Is it possible that it takes ten and a half days to walk?"
Xiao Yunfan smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, if the four of us go together, we must first take the waterway and then the mountain road. It will take more than ten days at least. If so, the poison in my body will probably take effect. This is what makes people happy right now. A headache.”
Mrs. Mo lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "Maybe I have a way to make us go faster?"
Xiao Yunfan said happily: "Mrs. Mo can let us fly to Bashan." Mrs. Mo rolled her eyes at Xiao Yunfan and said: "That's right. Let's fly to Bashan." After saying that, she led her son to go to work, and there was only one thing left in front of the big pit. Xiao Shui and two others.
Shui Hanyan whispered in Xiao Yunfan's ear: "Brother Xiao, do you really know such a magical skill as the Drinking Sky Sword?" Xiao Yunfan also whispered: "I was just making up nonsense about the Drinking Sky Sword. I still know how to use wine to acupuncture acupuncture points." Shui Hanyan blinked and asked, "Then what you said about the wine being injected into Mrs. Mo's body using blood as a mediator, is it true?"
Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "Of course it's not true. Think about it, if I really used blood as a matchmaker, I would definitely bite my own tongue, and the old godly woman gave me poisonous wine at that time. If I really Using blood as a matchmaker, I'm afraid there will be another poison in the body at this moment." Shui Hanyan shook his head and said: "But you lied to Mrs. Mo, she is not stupid, she must have been lucky to test the acupoint, and the Yufu acupoint appeared I let you go because of the signs you mentioned, so what's going on?"
Xiao Yunfan shook his head and whispered: "You really have a lot of questions. Let me tell you this, my ability to seal acupuncture points with wine can usually seal the acupuncture points for an hour. When I said three hours that day, that was also a lie to her. As for her The numbness and itching in her Yufu acupoint was due to the wrong way of unblocking the acupoint. In my martial art, water and wine are also used to unblock the acupoint. Mrs. Mo forced the use of external force. On the surface, her acupoint seemed to be untied, but in fact, it was the sword of wine. The alcohol produced has not completely dissipated."
After a long time, Mrs. Mo walked out of a cave. When she saw Xiao Shui and the two behaving affectionately, she felt resentful in her heart. He snorted coldly and said, "You two are coming with me." Xiao Shui and the others knew that there were many mechanisms here and did not move around. The previously rubbing map on Xiao Yunfan's body was also searched by Madam Mo, so he had to wait where he was. When he saw her summoning him, he naturally followed closely.
The three of them walked along the cave. There were many side roads in the cave. If Mrs. Mo hadn't led the way, they would have been trapped. The cave is dark and damp, but luckily there are lamps lit in the stone niches on the stone walls on both sides. Although the light was dim, the road could be vaguely discerned.
The cave goes down and slopes to the distance. There are stone steps under the feet, which are even more slippery due to the long-term humidity in the cave. At first, Shui Hanyan pulled Xiao Yunfan's sleeve and walked slowly, but Xiao Yunfan was afraid that Shui Hanyan would lose her footing and fall, so he stretched out his hand to hold her soft palm. Shui Hanyan's cheeks were red and his heart was beating fast. Xiao Yunfan didn't see her, but felt that her little hands were cold. He thought it was because of fear, and the pity in his heart became even stronger.
Although Mrs. Mo is old, her kung fu is much better than ordinary people. In addition, after she put on a pair of strange boots, she was more stable than the two of them when walking in the cave. Going down the stone steps, Mrs. Mo opened an iron door.
After the iron door is opened, it is another world. A huge circular square, with a huge strange ship parked on the round platform in the center of the square, which was ten feet long. The three of them walked across a suspension bridge and onto the square. Xiao Yunfan raised his eyes and saw that the big ship was black and shiny, with huge sails flying on both sides of the ship, like the wings of a bird.
There are sixteen arm-thick cables around the ship, and a spherical bag five times larger than the hull hangs above the cabin. Twenty-four ropes stretch out from all sides of the bag, and the other end of the rope is fixed on On the stone pillars outside the platform.
A majestic dragon head is carved on the bow of the ship. The dragon's eyes are inlaid with red gems. The gems are shining and dazzling. At the stern are two small sails, spread out in a figure-eight shape. Xiao Yunfan had never seen such a magnificent and strange ship, and he sincerely praised: "What a beautiful ship!"
Mrs. Mo's eyes flashed with light, and she said proudly: "This ship is a rare treasure in the world, and it is my husband's most proud invention in his life. If you look at the black and shiny hull, you must think it is painted. To be honest, Let me tell you that this hull is carved from a single piece of ebony."
Shui Hanyan exclaimed, "Ebony wood is rare in the world and is extremely valuable, let alone such a big piece."
Mrs. Mo smiled faintly and said: "A piece of ebony may be very precious in the eyes of the world. And building this treasure ship is the best use of it." Then she murmured to herself: "Yes! You said you would use this back then. The boat took Dou'er and I to travel to three mountains and five mountains, but the boat was built and you were gone." As she spoke, two lines of tears fell from the corners of her wrinkled eyes.
