Ghost Gate Dungeon
Zhufeng leaned on his back in the corner of the cell, breathing heavily with his mouth open. From time to time, he would stick out his tongue to lick his dry lips, and then swallow hard, looking half-dead.
He had been detained in this cell for three days. At the end of these three days, he had not touched a drop of wine and he couldn't bear it any longer.
In the past, when I was in the mine, I had to work hard to mine veins in order to survive. I didn't even have time to rest, let alone think about wine.
It was different now. He was locked in a cell all day and didn't have to work. When Qiliang came, he missed wine even more because he knew that he would be released soon.
Zhufeng's lips trembled and he muttered: "Why haven't you come yet? Why haven't you come yet..."
Zi Yang saw that he looked dazed and asked, "Are you okay?"
After hearing his voice, Zhufeng immediately became energetic. He sat on the ground and stared at Ziyang, saying: "Qiliang is here? Is Qiliang here?!"
After saying that, he looked around. Just as he was about to take a look at the cell door, Zi Yang said, "Stop looking. I didn't even hear the sound of the gate. How could someone come?"
"I don't believe it. Qiliang should be on the way here now." Zhufeng took out the jade token. Before he could inject fluid power into the jade token, he looked at Ziyang with some doubts and said, "Your blood has What’s the use? Why do they come here every day to get blood?”
When he heard about taking blood, Ziyang retracted his arm, pretending to be confused, and shook his head: "I don't know. They might be torturing me."
Zhufeng was puzzled and said, "That's not right. I'm here too. I caused a lot of trouble in the underworld. Why didn't they come to torture me, but why did they torture you?"
"Is your blood different from mine?"
Recalling Fei Xiaoyuan's strange behavior, this attracted Zhufeng's attention.
Zi Yang joked: "If I say it's different, you wouldn't want to try it yourself, would you?"
"This..." Zhufeng rubbed his hands, licked his lips, and said coquettishly: "If it's okay, can I have a bite? Just one bite!"
"Isn't all human blood the same?"
"Hey! Don't say that. People are different. If people's blood is the same, wouldn't their faces also have to be the same?"
Zi Yang couldn't talk to him, so he had to put his arms flat in front of him and said arrogantly: "I put my hand here, do you dare to bite it?"
Without saying a word, Zhufeng grabbed Ziyang's arm with both hands and bit it. When Ziyang felt the pain, he immediately grinned. He was about to punch Zhufeng on the back of the head, but he didn't. Take action.
The scorching blood rushed into Zhufeng's mouth like fire, making his lips sore and his tongue already numb.
After a scream, he covered his lips with his hands, beat violently a few times, then fell to the ground and rolled back and forth.
Not long after, he started crying like a child. Some people thought he had been wronged a lot.
Zi Yang walked over curiously, kicked him with his feet, and said, "Why are you crying?"
Zhufeng opened his mouth full of blood bubbles, and his tongue was also surrounded by blood bubbles. He pointed at his mouth, unable to speak, so he could only wave at him.
boom!
Just when Ziyang was wondering, a loud noise came from the gate. Qiliang came to the cell, stuffed the folding fan in his palm into the jade belt around his waist, and then took out the key and opened the cell door.
Zi Yang stared at him without saying a word, his eyes full of doubts.
"Don't look, I don't mean any harm. I'm just here to save you two." Qiliang squatted beside Zhufeng, took out his folding fan and hit him a few times. The latter hesitated, shook his head, and waved. Yeah, I have no idea what he's talking about.
Qiliang looked at Ziyang and said, "What's wrong with him?"
Zi Yang said calmly: "You have received retribution."
"Retribution? Forget it." Qi Liang didn't ask any more questions, helped Zhufeng who was sitting on the ground, and took the two of them out of the dungeon.
Qi Long stood in front of a mountain gate and shouted to Qi Liang, who was looking around: "Don't look any further. Take them both down the mountain from here quickly."
Qiliang glanced at the two Ghost Sect disciples who fell on the ground and said, "Aren't you accompanying the young master?"
"Young Master is asleep. I'm afraid you can't do it alone, so I came out and took a look." Qilong urged: "Don't wait. If you wait any longer, it will be dawn. Please take them away quickly."
Qiliang helped Zhufeng walk out of the ghost gate. Ziyang behind him glanced at Qilong intentionally or unintentionally. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he heard Qilong's helpless voice.
"Don't be so hostile to me. I also act according to the rules. Besides, if my brothers let you go, the anger in your heart should be gone."
Zi Yang stopped, turned his back to him, and said, "Why did you let me go?"
"Qiliang said he wanted to let you go, so I didn't ask. If you want to know the specific reason, you can ask him."
"Thank you." Zi Yang said solemnly, "But sooner or later I will get back the things I lost at the Ghost Gate."
Qi Long lowered his head and was silent for a long time, not knowing what he was referring to.
When Zi Yang caught up with Qi Liang, he didn't find Zhu Feng and asked, "Where did Zhu Feng go?"
"Let's go, let's go, you should leave as soon as possible." Qiliang slowly waved the folding fan in his palm, his delicate face showing a relaxed look.
"Why did you save me?"
"I'm not saving you, I'm saving Guimen."
"Save the ghost gate?"
Qi Liang smiled and said: "Your friend Jia Juesheng is a great formation master. If the ghost gate catches you, he will not let it go. If I don't let you go, you will not be able to sleep well."
"Is he that powerful?"
"In the long run, his future is immeasurable. I don't want to be his enemy, and I don't want him to be resentful of Guimen."
Before Zi Yang could speak, he saw something rushing towards him. The next moment, Zhufeng suddenly appeared in front of Qi Liang, making him tremble in fright and the folding fan in his palm fell to the ground.
Zhufeng raised his head and gestured to him for a long time, then put his palm flat in front of Qi Liang, as if asking for something from him.
Qiliang picked up the folding fan on the ground and said, "What do you want?"
Zhufeng gestured to Ziyang again, and Ziyang said: "I know, I know. He doesn't have the Spiritual Source Stone in his hand to buy wine."
"Oh. Here you go, take it." Qiliang took out the Lingxuan bag, took out dozens of Saint Origin Stones and stuffed them into Zhufeng's hand.
He took the Holy Origin Stone and nodded to Qi Liang with a smile, and disappeared without a word of greeting.
Qiliang looked up and glanced at the brightening sky: "It's getting late, you should leave quickly. If you are discovered by other disciples of the Ghost Sect, you won't be able to leave."
"Thank you."
Ziyang walked along the path down the mountain, and just as he was far away from the ghost gate, he heard a cheer.
"Brother Ziyang!"
Zi Yang stopped, his nose felt sore, and he turned around with red eyes, looking at Xiao Hai running towards him, and said in a voiceless voice: "Xiao Hai..."
He knelt down, picked up Xiao Hai who rushed towards him, and said happily: "How are you doing these days when I'm not around?"
Xiaohai nodded obediently and said happily: "Okay! Sister Qianqian and brother Qiu Leng are both very good to me, just like you, brother Ziyang, are to Xiaohai."
He carried Xiao Hai and walked to Qiu Qianqian, bowed his head and said gratefully: "Thank you for taking care of Xiao Hai."
Qiu Qian raised her eyes slightly, quietly admiring his fair and fair face. Zi Yang looked up at her, and then he hurriedly looked elsewhere.
"Brother Ziyang, your face is so hot and your heart is beating so fast. Are you sick?"
Zi Yang shook his head and said awkwardly: "No, no."
The veil at the corner of Qiu Qianqian's mouth moved slightly, and she said charmingly: "It's time to pay back what you owe me, right? Starting from the underground palace and dragging it until now, you can't keep owing me, right?"
Zi Yang stepped back involuntarily with his feet, and did not dare to raise his head to look at her: "I... aren't we friends?"
"You don't have to return your friend's things?" Qiu Qianqian approached him little by little.
Xiaohai broke away from Ziyang's arms, covered his eyes with his little hands, and squatted aside alone.
"I...I..." Ziyang hesitated for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to say to her: "I don't want to hurt you, I hope you can just stop, I won't..." .”
"That's enough! You don't need to say any more! I won't pester you anymore." Qiu Qianqian felt pain in her heart, and his words were like a knife, piercing her heart.
Xiaohai stood there blankly, Qiu Qianqian walked over with messy steps, took Xiaohai's hand and left. The latter looked back at Ziyang, very reluctant to let go, but he was still dragged away by Qianqianqian. .
Zi Yang looked down at the crystal clear tears in his palms. He exhaled heavily and slowly closed his palms: "I'm sorry! She gave everything for me, and I will never let her down in this life."
Sanwang Hall
After leaving the Zhuliu Mountains, Xiao Yuying chased Qilong to the gate of the Ghost Gate and watched him enter the Ghost Gate with her own eyes. As a member of the Sanwang Palace, she could not chase him in and cause trouble.
After all, she has a special status, and her words and deeds can almost represent the attitude of the entire Sanwang Palace.
She didn't dare to do such a thing as breaking into the ghost gate without permission. Once the two sects got into trouble, even if she was the daughter of Xiaoxiong from the Sanwang Palace, she couldn't bear it.
Moreover, Xiaoxiong has the final say in Sanwang Palace today, but due to his realm, he will discuss all major matters in Sanwang Palace with Bubai, the former commander of Liangcheng, and will only take action after the two agree. Make a decision.
Xiao Yuying hurriedly came to the entrance of the main hall of Sanwang Hall. Several elders of Sanwang Hall just walked out of the hall and nodded to her.
Not long after, there was a clanging sound of metal, and a tall and sturdy man wearing golden armor walked out of the hall behind the elders. When he saw Xiao Yuying, he walked quickly. Exit the threshold of the hall.
When he came outside the palace, the sun shone on him, and the golden light reflected from his armor was so bright that it made people blind.
Xiao Yuying saluted him and asked slightly anxiously: "Uncle Bubai, where is my father? Why didn't he come to the main hall to discuss matters?"
The elders of the Sanwang Palace gathered in the main hall to discuss matters. There must be something important. She was surprised that her father, the master of the Sanwang Palace, was missing from such an important event.
Bubai laughed and said, "Niece Xiao, you don't know something. After you went to the Zhuliu Mountains, Brother Xiao left all the affairs of the King San Palace to me to handle, while he himself went to retreat to practice."
"Cultivation in seclusion?!" Xiao Yuying's lips parted slightly. She was too embarrassed to say the words as soon as they came to her lips. Her face, as white as milk, was very sad.
She originally wanted to go back to the clan and ask Xiaoxiong to come forward and go to the ghost gate to ask for someone. Now Xiaoxiong is in seclusion and is in power, and everyone in Sanwang Palace wants to listen to him, which puts Xiao Yuying in trouble.
Although she calls Bubai uncle, and Bubai himself treats her well, it would be somewhat unreasonable to ask him to stoop down and go to the underworld to ask for someone.
Whatever her father Xiaoxiong did for her, she took it for granted, but if Bubai did it for her, she would feel guilty in her heart.
Bubai saw her hesitation, so he tried to ask: "What's the matter, niece Xiao? Why are you so polite to me? If you have anything to do, just tell me, and I will do it if I can."
Xiao Yuying bit her lip: "But..."
Bubai smiled and said, "Goodbye. Your father handed over Sanwang Palace to me, which is a great trust in me. Even if I am wronged as much as that kid, I can't wrong you."
Xiao Yuying told him exactly what she wanted to say, and Bubai smiled and said, "Let's go! Follow me to the ghost gate now. I want to see if Fei Yingming can let him go!"
After saying that, he took Xiao Yuying and flew straight towards the ghost gate.
