Chapter 51: Lamenting that the virtuous mother has been injured and not waking up for a long time; regretting that the heroic daughter has been tortured and cannot let go
Last time, it was mentioned that everyone used the technique of "wheel fighting" to attack Zen Master Namo in turn. Zen Master Namo was defeated in the end and still wanted to take Guo Xiang away when he escaped. Unexpectedly, Guo Xiang had already put on the soft hedgehog armor, and Zen Master Namo's palm was stung and he ran away.
The people at the top couldn't help but feel horrified when they saw Zen Master Namo walking like a ghost and escaping without a trace in the blink of an eye. Guo Jing saw that Zen Master Namo hit Guo Xiang on the shoulder with his right palm. His palm was injured, but he could still escape easily, and secretly thought it was a pity. It turns out that the soft hedgehog's armor was once stained with the poisonous blood passed down by his fourth master Nan Xiren. When his sworn brother Yang Kang wanted to assassinate Huang Rong, he hit Huang Rong on the shoulder and died of poisoning. Later, Huang Rong was afraid that Guo Xiang's three sisters and brothers were young and accidentally poisoned by snake venom, so she heated it with strong wine and washed it several times to remove the poison from the soft hedgehog's armor. This time, Zen Master Namo also hit this position. There was no poison, and he only suffered a little skin injury.
When Guo Jing saw Guo Xiang being beaten next to Huang Rong, he hurriedly flew over and leaned over to pick up his wife. When Guo Xiang saw Zen Master Namo escaping, his father felt as if he were seeing a snake or a scorpion, and his heart was as sharp as a knife. Involuntarily, he knelt down among the rocks and prostrated himself on the ground. She just felt that the mountains and fields were empty and the earth was cold. She thought of her mother's unconsciousness, of Wu Santong's unfortunate death trying to save herself, of her father's furious look, of the resentful eyes of the big and small Wu brothers... One by one, one by one, she was in pain. My heart was pounding, and I couldn't help but burst into tears.
Guo Jing felt pity in his heart when he saw Guo Xiang crying bitterly. I was shocked when I saw my wife's eyes were closed, her face was pale, her lips were purple, and her breath was weak. He hurriedly hugged his wife tightly, placed his palms close to the back of his heart, and poured his own power into Huang Rong's body.
Zhu Ziliu saw Zen Master Namo escaping, and everyone stood there, stunned. The big and small Wu brothers glared at Guo Xiang, hurriedly endured the pain, came forward to smooth things over, and said:
"This monk's kung fu is really weird. Could it be that he actually knows the art of invisibility? Just now he was surrounded by everyone in the center, sitting cross-legged, with no way to escape. I thought he would be captured, but in the blink of an eye he was on the edge of the cliff."
Guo Jing hugged Huang Rong and came to Zhu Ziliu's side. Seeing Zhu Ziliu holding his right wrist with his left hand, sweating profusely from pain on his face, and pointing out the battle situation calmly, he asked with concern:
"Senior Brother Zhu, your hand."
Zhu Ziliu shook his head and said:
"It's okay, it's just the pain of a broken wrist. I just reconnected it myself. I will recover in a few months when I return to Kunlun Mountain."
The two came to Wu Santong. Wu Santong's eyes were wide open. The Wu brothers were still crying beside him. Zhu Ziliu comforted him:
"The deceased has passed away, but those who have come can still be pursued. People cannot be resurrected after death, so the virtuous Kunzhong should grieve and be obedient and take care of his father's funeral."
The big and small Wu brothers looked at Guo Jing and asked for instructions. Guo Jing had tears in his eyes, his heart was filled with sadness, and he said sadly:
"Senior Brother Wu unfortunately died while trying to save the dog girl. The only plan for now is to temporarily send his body down the mountain, and then buy a valuable cypress coffin for burial at the bottom of the mountain. Please hire a carriage and you and your brothers will escort him. My daughter, Guo Xiang, will follow me wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning. Let's go back to Xiangyang and mourn again."
The Wu brothers should be crying.
At this time, Yelu Qi, Chen Chen and Wang Yang had gathered together. Guo Jing said to Yelu Qi:
"Qi'er, your mother is unconscious, and your father must immediately take her back to Xiangyang at starry night to recover from her injuries. You and the heroes of the Beggar Clan assist Brother Wu in escorting Uncle Wu's coffin back to Xiangyang, and send several Beggar Clan disciples to escort Uncle Zhu. Go back to Kunlun Mountain."
Yeluqi and Chen Chen bowed and obeyed. Yelu Qi was thinking about who would be more suitable to escort Zhu Ziliu back to Kunlun Mountain, but when he heard Wang Yang heard this, he clasped his fists and said:
"Wang is willing to go to the Kunlun Mountains with Zhu Daxia, please give me your instructions."
Yeluqi nodded and said:
"That's very good. Then please ask Elder Wang to take a trip. After arriving at Kunlun Mountain safely, return to Xiangyang City immediately and wait for orders!"
Wang Yang bowed and said:
"As you command!"
Wang Yang was usually very reserved in his words. After receiving the order, he accompanied Zhu Ziliu and supported him as he prepared to proceed.
Seeing that the arrangements were in place, Guo Jing glanced at Guo Xiang again and saw that she was still prostrate on the ground, her shoulders trembling, as if she was extremely sad. Thinking that this woman had a strong personality, she would inevitably do something stupid again, so she turned back to Yeluqi and said:
"You take good care of Xiang'er and let her support Uncle Wu's coffin along the way. When we get to Xiangyang, let her shut up in the study and reflect on her past. Your mother and I will take the first step."
After finishing speaking, the figure flashed and floated down the mountain.
When Zhu Ziliu heard Guo Jing's arrangement, Guo Xiang couldn't bear the humiliation, so he turned around and said to everyone:
"What is right may not be right, and what is wrong may be yes. I think the fault this time cannot be entirely blamed on Miss Guo Er. After this battle, we all have faults."
Wu Xiuwen's eyes were filled with fire, he pointed at the jade flute inserted in Wu Santong's chest, and asked in protest:
"Could it be that my father inserted the jade flute into his own chest?"
When Zhu Ziliu saw Wu Xiuwen was in agitated mood and contradicted him, his face suddenly turned sullen. After a slight change of thought, he forgave Wu Xiuwen for his recklessness. He leaned down, stretched out his left hand, wiped Wu Santong's face, closed his junior brother's wide eyes, and said silently with tears in his eyes:
"Junior Brother Wu, you fought bravely against stubborn enemies, eliminated harm for the people, died in the wilderness, and died a worthy death. May you go to the Paradise of Paradise as soon as possible and be reborn in a wealthy family, so as not to suffer from the fatigue of traveling around again."
After saying that, he stretched out his left hand, pulled out the jade flute with a little force, and wiped the blood on the grass. The Wu brothers dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Zhu Ziliu walked slowly over and came to Guo Xiang's side. He knelt down and comforted:
"Xiang'er, as the saying goes, 'A person who is upright is not afraid of a slanted shadow.' Although your mother was injured because of you, your uncle Wu died because of you. Others have misunderstood you, but I believe you are innocent. Before the matter comes to light, If you feel a little wronged, just bear with it for the time being."
Guo Xiang's eyes were filled with tears and she choked with sobs and said:
"With Uncle Zhu's understanding, Xiang'er still can't let go. Daddy is right. Only by showing mourning to Uncle Wu can I make up for the sins I committed."
Zhu Ziliu sighed and said nothing more. I thought that it might be good for her to let her go through the experience, so I said goodbye to everyone, bowed my fists to Wu Santong's body, and, accompanied by Wang Yang, flew down the mountain.
Yeluqi saw that everyone was leaving one after another. Guo Xiangwu felt very sad, so he comforted him and said:
"Second sister, my parents have already flown back to Xiangyang to heal their wounds. Now that the martial arts uncle has passed away, it is useless for you to be sad. We should discuss with Brother Wu and Xiaowu how to carry the coffin back to Xiangyang City."
After hearing this, Guo Xiang stopped crying for a while, wiped away her tears, came to Wu Santong's body, fell on the ground, kowtowed three times respectfully, and then timidly said to the big and small Wu brothers:
"Brother Da Wu, brother Xiao Wu, I'm sorry, it was me who killed Uncle Wu. You can hit or scold him if you want, but Xiang'er will never fight back."
Wu Dunru said "hmm" as an answer. Wu Xiuwen glared at Guo Xiang angrily, without saying a word, picked up Wu Santong and flew down the mountain peak, Wu Dunru hurriedly followed behind.
Guo Xiang glanced at the cliff with broken trees, fallen grass, and rocks all over the ground, and her heart ached. Accompanied by Yeluqi, he followed the Wu brothers and used Qinggong to fly off the top of the mountain.
There is a saying: It was true that Qu Yuan threw himself into the water, but it was not true that he killed Zeng Zi. To know the results, please see the breakdown next time.
