early morning.
The room was unusually quiet.
Yu Ye sat on the couch, topless.
His skin is delicate, tough, and has a light luster like topaz. The once thin arms and waist have become much thicker. At the age of seventeen, he has grown into a strong young man.
However, there was a purple bruise on his back, which was still shocking.
The bruises were caused by Gan Xing's flying sword, which almost punctured him. Fortunately, the body-protecting Qi blocked the fatal blow, but he could not avoid the pain of his skin and flesh, the vibration of his organs, and the torment of retrograde qi and blood. Now, after spending two spiritual stones and a bottle of elixir, and practicing the exercises for seven consecutive days to heal the injury, the injury is no longer serious, and the consumed energy has gradually returned to its original state.
Yu Ye put on his robe and lowered his head to look at it.
In front of him were two gift rings, two flying swords, seventeen spiritual stones, more than twenty talismans, three jade slips, several bottles of elixirs, scattered gold and silver, and personal belongings. wait.
If you kill, you will get something!
This is also one of the reasons why people like to fight each other!
Seventeen spiritual stones, far more than the previous seizures. Among the more than twenty talismans, most were Lihuo talismans, while there were two wind-controlling talismans and two dragon-subduing talismans.
There are three jade slips, two of which are immortal sect's techniques.
Jiao Ying once said that there are many techniques in the Immortal Sect, but if you are greedy for too much, you will be indiscriminate. The "Tiangang Sutra" and the Qi of the Seven Kills Sword are enough for him to practice for a lifetime.
Another jade slip was a map of Daze, but it marked the specific locations of the Eight Taoist Gates and Lingjiao Valley. This also verified the previous speculation that the conspiracy of Nanshan, Bu Yi and others was related to Lingjiao Valley. In other words, it is related to the remains of the monks in Lingjiao Valley, and also related to him in the wild.
Yu Ye rolled up his sleeves and everything in front of him disappeared.
Nowadays, he is extremely skilled in carrying and storing items with his spiritual consciousness. This is the truth that practice makes perfect.
And the harvest this time is not only the spirit stone flying sword, but also a big living person!
Yu Ye stretched out his legs and lay down, stretched his waist gently, then opened the door and walked out expectantly.
Passing through the small courtyard is the warehouse.
Just as he arrived in front of the door, a scream could be heard faintly——
"ah……"
The door is closed.
"Tuk-tuk" knocked twice.
After a while, the door opened, revealing Renliang's head, and then he waved furtively.
Yu Ye raised his feet and walked into the room. The door behind him had clicked shut.
Renliang stretched out his hand and said, "My eldest brother and I don't dare to disturb my third brother, but we are not idle either..."
There is a hole in the corner of the warehouse. A wooden ladder leads from the hole to the underground cellar.
Yu Ye walked down the wooden ladder.
It was a little stuffy in the cellar.
Under the dancing firelight, Tianbao was naked, holding a whip in his hand, and said with a fierce look: "Be honest with me..."
On the wooden frame beside him, a middle-aged man with disheveled hair was tied up. He was also shirtless, but he was covered in blood, especially the blood hole on his shoulder, which was terrible to look at. Perhaps he couldn't bear the torture, so he begged for mercy: "I've told you eight times, why don't you kill me..."
"Snapped--"
With the crack of a whip, a roar sounded——
"You are scaring me, you are seeking death... Third brother..."
Tianbao was about to have an attack when he turned around and saw Yu Ye. He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said with relief: "The continuous questioning these days is far more difficult than killing!"
He pulled up a wooden stool and sat down, his strong body steaming.
"Thank you, brothers!"
Yu Ye thanked him for his hard work and then asked curiously: "He has confessed eight times. I wonder what he confessed?"
Tianbao took the earthen jar handed over by Renliang and drank some water, and said: "This man's name is Hong'an, he calls himself a casual cultivator, and he is a native of Zhongshan, Qizhou. His parents are dead and he has never been married, but he has an affair with a prostitute."
"Oh, what else?"
"There is more than one prostitute, what are they called..."
"anything else?"
"Also...oh, when he came to Daze, he also looked for a place for prostitution. What kind of fucking master is he? He is clearly a lustful person!"
"Why did he come to Daze?"
"Isn't he looking for a woman... He really didn't tell the truth, damn..."
Yu Ye waved his hand.
The man who was tied to the wooden frame shook his head and said in pain: "Seven days... For seven whole days, these two people tortured me repeatedly, just to find out how many women I have, I..." He looked back as if he couldn't bear to look back. He sighed and said angrily: "I...how can I be humiliated like this..."
Yu Ye was speechless.
The Tianbao brothers knew his plan to capture the monk alive and were very excited. When he captured this middle-aged man, the two brothers took the initiative to take care of, torture and interrogate him. People in the world of martial arts only care about commonplace affairs, so naturally they can't make any big claims.
But it makes people suffer a lot!
His name is Hong An!
"Fellow Taoist Hong'an!"
"you……"
Hong'an thought that Yu Ye was more vicious and cruel, but he didn't expect that he would speak calmly and treat him as a Taoist friend.
He looked at the young man in front of him and said bitterly: "You have ruined my cultivation. I am no longer a cultivator."
Yu Ye took out a few pills and stuffed them into his mouth, then crushed another pill and applied it to the wound on his shoulder. Then he took two steps back and said, "Brothers, please help him untie him. Fill your hunger with wine and meat!”
Although the Tianbao brothers were confused and confused, they still got busy.
After a while, there was a table in the cellar, as well as a pot of meat and a jug of wine.
Hong An was also helped to sit down at the table. He was wearing a long gown, and he lowered his head weakly, perhaps because he had been tortured.
"Damn it, my third brother invited him to eat and drink, but he became coy!"
"Hmph, I used to be so majestic in the past, but I never expected that today..."
Tianbao and Renliang stood aside, doing their best to ridicule and humiliate. Once upon a time, the monks in Qizhou were extremely arrogant and arrogant, making people hate and fear them. But now they are at their mercy, and the two brothers are naturally proud.
Yu Ye stood on the other side and said softly: "When you have eaten and drank enough, please reply to me with a few words!"
Xu Shi swallowed the pill, which gave Hong An some strength. He slowly raised his head and said, "You will kill me after questioning?"
"I won't kill you!"
Yu Ye affirmed.
Hong An was silent for a moment and said, "Ask me!"
Yu Ye nodded and said: "How many groups of monks have come to Qizhou, including how many casual cultivators, how many immortal disciples, and how many foundation-building experts?"
Hong An thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, there should be three groups of monks coming to Qizhou. Many years ago, senior Bu Yi brought three Qi Refining Taoist friends to Daze. After the three Taoist friends died, He recruited twelve more people from Qizhou, most of them were casual cultivators from Qizhou, and Gan Xing and I were among them. However, they lost half of them again and achieved nothing. The seniors of Yunchuan Xianmen were angry about this, and ordered senior Nanshan to personally lead the three A foundation-building disciple and ten Qi-refining disciples came to Daze."
"So, there are thirty people before and after. I have killed a few..."
"One person from Beiqi Mountain, one from Taiping Temple, two from the outskirts of Qingye Town, two from outside Xingyuan Valley, one from Lingjiao Valley, one from Lingjiao Town, and two from Chenling Mountain. A total of ten fellow Taoists died in your hands. Of course. , plus me, that’s eleven people.”
"How can it all be blamed on me?"
"Looking at Da Ze Dao Sect, who has the ability to kill masters above the fifth level of Qi Refining? Once someone disappears, this account will be recorded on your head."
"Which immortal sect does Nanshan come from? Will there be more masters coming?"
"Nanshan, Bu Yi and other foundation-building seniors all came from the Yunchuan Immortal Sect in Zhongshan, Qizhou. As for what will happen next, how do I, a casual cultivator, know. I am just hired by others to earn a few spiritual stones. However, Bu Yi Senior once told you not to mention your trip to Daze to others, otherwise you will be severely punished!"
"Oh, why hide this?"
"It's about the secrets of the Immortal Sect, who can tell clearly."
"You should know the mission of Daze trip, right?"
"Search for treasure."
"What treasure?"
"Treasures from overseas."
"What does overseas refer to as Qizhou?"
"It's not Qizhou, but the legendary Yanzhou."
"The legendary Yanzhou?"
"No Taoist friend I have ever met has been to that place."
The two people's questions and answers were very involved, and their words revealed a lot of information. But the Tianbao brothers were in a fog, and gradually felt bored. They changed their looks at each other, quietly climbed up the wooden ladder and slipped out.
In the cellar, only Yu Ye and Hong An were left.
Yu Ye poured a bowl of wine for Hong An, then put down the wine bottle, paced in place, and continued to ask——
"What kind of treasure is it and what is its use?"
Hong An picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine, then calmed down a little and said——
"I once asked Senior Bu Yi, and he knew very little."
"Since he knows so little, he spares no effort to hunt me down?"
"You know about Daze's lost sword energy, and there are others who testify against it. It's hard for you to clear away the involvement. What's more, you killed many people in a row later, and the hatred became deeper and deeper..."
"The dust must have harmed me. Where are the others?"
"I have never seen this person. After I heard that he testified against you, Bu Yi let him leave Daze, maybe he went to Qizhou."
"Let me ask you again, why are Nanshan and Bu Yi eager to establish the Immortal Sect, and why do they summon people from various Taoist sects and Jianghu to watch the ceremony?"
"The establishment of the Immortal Sect has nothing to do with Divination, but Nanshan's idea. He wants to use the Immortal Sect to recruit all parties so that he can take over the Dao Sect and the Jianghu for his own use. In his opinion, this is not only a shortcut to find treasures, but also a way to find treasures. This is a good strategy for him to deal with you. He will never let you have a foothold in Daze, and you will eventually have to bow your head and beg for mercy!"
"As you said, Yi and Nanshan are not compatible?"
"Bu Yi was reprimanded by Nanshan for not doing his job well. Bu Yi was angry about this, and Nanshan was also angry with him for not obeying discipline. As both of us were peers in the foundation building, it was inconvenient for us to break up with each other. Gan Xing and I and others were implicated. , was forced to go to Chenling Mountain to search for spiritual stones..."
"I've crippled your cultivation. Can you still practice in the future?"
"You...you have such a useless cultivation level? I didn't die under your sword energy, and I was almost beaten to death by your fist. You are worried about whether I can cultivate, so you might as well compensate me for decades of time... "
Hong An suddenly became angry, his words full of despair.
Yu Ye was speechless and could only cup his hands and turn around to leave silently.
After walking out of the cellar on the wooden ladder, the Tianbao brothers were still waiting in the warehouse.
"Third brother, you and I go have a drink. It won't be too late to ask questions another day!"
"No more questions!"
Yu Ye responded lightly and walked out of the door.
Across the courtyard is the pond.
Early spring has passed, and the pond is still withered. On the contrary, the mountains and forests in the distance have an extra layer of light blue spring. The once gray sky seemed a little brighter.
Yu Ye paced on the bank of the pond, thinking back to himself about the conversation in the cellar.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him. Tianbao had put on his shirt and walked over with Renliang, each looking relaxed.
Yu Ye raised his eyebrows, seeming puzzled.
The two brothers actually smiled proudly at him, as if everything was unspoken.
Yu Ye was slightly startled and said hurriedly: "Did you two kill Hong An?"
"Third brother, I have nothing to ask. What's the point of keeping him?"
"I have promised not to kill him, how can I break my promise?"
"Third brother didn't break his promise. The two of us made a move..."
