When Situ Kong limped into the prison yard, he saw that the door of a cell was open, and the iron chain locking the door had been broken into two pieces and fell to the ground.
But Su Wangting just stood at the door, staring blankly into the cell without saying a word.
"Hehehe, why, when I saw your Jade Faced Demon Sword coming, did that guy take the initiative to give you the white jade piece in your hands?" Situ Kong joked.
Su Wangting slowly turned his head to look at Situ Kong, his face full of resentment.
"Uh...what's wrong?"
Su Wangting stretched out his hand and pointed into the cell: "Dead."
"died!?"
Situ Kong exclaimed, holding back the pain all over his body and quickly rushed to the cell door.
I saw a thin, disheveled man curled up in a corner of the cell, motionless.
A large pool of bright red was still flowing under his body, and traces of blood could still be seen flowing out of a thin opening on his neck.
"He was killed not long ago." Su Wangting said in a deep voice.
Situ Kong frowned and snorted coldly, saying: "What a charming and poisonous scorpion! Seeing you suddenly appearing outside the hospital to fight with the six people, he killed them quietly. Huh, I'm afraid she did too.
I had expected this outcome early on, so in order to prevent you from getting the news about Bai Yupian, I killed him and silenced him."
Su Wangting nodded slightly: "This girl is not that simple. But it's no wonder that they have spent thirty-two years trying not to pry open this person's mouth. Naturally, they are not willing to be easily obtained by outsiders."
Situ Kong sighed softly, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that this is a rare clue, and it disappeared like this."
Su Wangting glanced at the cell and asked: "Who is this person? Why did Luoxiatan insist that this person must know the whereabouts of the white jade piece? Do you know?"
When Situ Kong heard this, he couldn't help but smile proudly on his swollen face, and he raised his head and said, "Humph, I was once the guard of the Luoxiatan Secret Pavilion. Do you think I know that?"
Su Wangting bared his teeth and smiled: "I guess your uncle, you are a showy guy. If you don't change your habit, I will throw you back to Luoxiatan."
"Don't... don't panic, that's what I said." Situ Kong coughed twice in embarrassment and took two steps back unconsciously, "This person's surname is Qi, and he is..."
"Slow!!" Su Wangting suddenly raised his hand to interrupt him, "surnamed Qi?? Hey, I wonder if you can just make up lies and get away with it? How can we have such a surname in Jiuzhou?"
"Hey, you are uneducated." Situ Kong rolled his eyes and stretched out a finger to gesture in the air, "Horizontal, horizontal, left, and vertical are the characters, and they have the same pronunciation as 'Qi'. Although there are very few people with this surname,
But it is indeed one of the surnames in Jiuzhou."
Su Wangting's old face turned red: "Go on... continue."
Situ Kong chuckled and continued: "This man's name is Qi Yuanchang. He was once the leader of a small gang in the southwest of Wangzhou. More than thirty years ago, he got drunk at his daughter's full moon banquet and took the
He produced a piece of white jade to show off in front of the gang, and taunted the four famous families, saying that they had sharpened their brains to get the treasure, but he got it easily."
"Has Luoxiatan learned about this news?"
Situ Kong nodded: "At that time, in order to find out the details of various gangs in Wangzhou, Luoxiatan sent people to keep an eye on them early in the morning. After learning the news, the Luoxiatan spies who were lurking in the banquet immediately secretly kidnapped
A gang member came back for questioning. According to the gang member, Qi Yuanchang got the white jade piece while hunting in the deep mountains and forests."
Su Wangting raised his eyebrows: "How strange! I found it while hunting??"
"Who says it isn't? Qi Yuanchang was hunting a bear at that time, and wanted to use its skin to make clothes for his wife. However, the bear did not fall immediately after being hit by an arrow, but fled back to a cave. Qi Yuanchang tracked the bear
It was already dark when we entered the cave. When we saw a faint green light coming out of the cave, we went in and killed the bear. Then we followed the green light and went deep into the cave to investigate. We found out that the source of the green light was none other than a Tianji Jiu.
Zhang white jade piece!"
"This is really unintentional, tsk tsk." Su Wangting touched his chin and shook his head with a wry smile, "Then...after learning this news, Luoxiatan killed him?"
Situ Kong smiled bitterly and said, "Yes. Luoxiatan killed everyone in the gang and captured Qi Yuanchang, only to find that his wife and daughter, as well as the white jade piece, were missing."
Su Wangting made a sound, nodded and said: "I understand. The white jade piece must be on his wife's body, but Luoxiatan suffered from the fact that he had killed all his gang members back then, and no one told him about his wife's details and whereabouts.
That’s why we imprisoned Qi Yuanchang for thirty-two years and forced him to reveal his wife’s identity and possible whereabouts?”
"Of course." Situ Kong shook his head.
Su Wangting looked at the corpse in the cell and sighed: "Idiot, idiot! Do you know now that the white jade piece in the Nine Chapters of Tianji is a disaster rather than a blessing? You actually showed it off back then. How is this different from committing suicide?"
"He can still live for thirty-two years if he falls into the hands of Luoxiatan. It's not a loss for him." Situ Kong waved to Su Wangting, "Let's leave this island quickly. Today is Luoxiatan to the island."
If it happens on a day when supplies are delivered, it will be troublesome."
Su Wangting nodded and walked towards the courtyard gate with Situ Kong.
But when the two of them came to the sandy beach by the sea, they were confused.
Leng Xuewei has disappeared!!
"That's weird." Situ Kong frowned and stared blankly at the place where Leng Xuewei had been lying just now. "Her internal strength has been destroyed by you. It is impossible to escape with light kung fu. How can she go there?"
Where is it?"
"There is something missing." Su Wangting said calmly.
"What??"
Su Wangting pointed to the seaside: "Boat."
"..."
At this time, in the vast ocean, there were two oars on both sides of a small sailboat, dancing together and splashing water.
Leng Xuewei was sitting in the middle of the boat, clenching her silver teeth and using all her strength to shake the oar.
"Jade-faced Demon Sword!!!" Leng Xuewei screamed while shaking the paddle, her whole body shaking with anger, "You actually ruined my cultivation!!! Auntie, I will never be done with you in this life!!!"
"call out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a shadow suddenly passed by the boat, and a gust of wind caused her long hair to rise high.
Leng Xuewei was startled, and when she looked intently, she saw two figures rushing through the water in front of the boat at extremely fast speeds.
And one of the figures turned around and grinned at Leng Xuewei.
Su Wangting.
"puff!!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Leng Xuewei's mouth.
"Hey!! Auntie, please row slowly, we are leaving first!!!"
After finishing speaking, Su Wangting speeded up again, holding Situ Kong on his back and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"puff!!"
Another mouthful of blood spurted out, and Leng Xuewei stopped rocking the oar, leaned back, and fell into the boat.
Looking up at the blue sky, a line of tears fell from the corners of her eyes.
"Bullying...it's too much...wuwuwuwuwu..."
This time, she really cried.
Su Wangting deliberately avoided the direction of Luoxiatan Sect and landed about twenty miles east of it.
Situ Kong looked far away in the direction of Luoxiatan and sighed feebly: "Hey! I have been practicing martial arts in Luoxiatan since I was a child, but I didn't expect that I would end up being persecuted by the sect. It's just that the world is huge, and we should go there in the future.
Where to stay..."
"You have somewhere to go." Su Wangting smiled.
Situ Kong turned his head and stared at Su Wangting blankly: "Where? Your home?"
"Go away." Su Wangting said, taking out a small paper bag from his arms and throwing it over, "Go here."
Situ Kong took the paper bag and opened it, and was stunned.
It is a strand of broken hair tied up with a thin red rope.
"What is this?" Situ Kong asked in confusion.
Su Wangting smiled and said: "Can't you tell? It's the girl's broken hair, which represents determination. Someone asked me to give it to you, otherwise I wouldn't have come to Luoxiatan, and you have already
The coward died on that island."
Situ Kong was startled when he heard this: "Who asked you to send it?"
Su Wangting shrugged: "You guess."
After staring at his swollen eyes and thinking blankly for a moment, Situ Kong shouted out loud: "Li Guier??"
Su Wangting nodded.
"How did you meet her?? You went to Nightliu Country??"
Su Wangting nodded again.
"So that's it..."
Situ Kong stared blankly at the broken hair in his hand and remained silent for a long time.
"How did you let her down? She cut off your hair." Su Wangting said with a bad smile.
Situ Kong held the broken hair tightly in his hands, struggled for a long time, and whispered: "Hey... Actually, the two of us have been in love since we were sixteen years old, and we have a deep relationship. Three months ago, they had a night with the king.
Someone from the court called her back to serve as an official, and the head of the family agreed."
Su Wangting said in a deep voice: "After so many years of love, you haven't even spoken to save it?"
Situ Kong rubbed the corners of his eyes, lowered his head and said: "After I got the inner skills of Shuanghua Palace from you, I was so absorbed in practicing that I couldn't care about these things. Before leaving, she asked me if I would marry her. If so,
She won’t leave.”
"How did you answer?"
Situ Kong raised his head and glanced at Su Wangting, then quickly lowered his head again: "I said...I said I don't have the time to think about this."
Su Wangting's face immediately darkened when he heard this. He paced back and forth in front of Situ Kong for more than a dozen times before he whispered: "Do you know why I searched so hard for the Nine Chapters of Tianji?"
Situ Kong said blankly: "Isn't it just to obtain the strange scriptures and become the number one person in the world?"
"If I want to be the first person, do I need to rely on the Nine Chapters of Tianji!!!" Su Wangting suddenly shouted.
Situ Kong was so frightened that he trembled all over. After staring at Su Wangting for a while, he nodded slightly: "You are right. If you want to be the number one person in the world today, you really don't need to rely on the Nine Chapters of Heaven's Secret."
After a pause, Situ Kong asked again: "Then what is your purpose of searching for the Nine Chapters of Tianji?"
Su Wangting raised his head and let out a long breath, and said calmly: "I made the same mistake as you and missed someone very important to me. But you are much luckier than me. Miss Li is still alive. There is no room for recovery for you.
.”
"You mean...the person you lost...is no longer alive?"
Su Wangting was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "I don't know. That's why I searched for the Nine Chapters of Secrets. Sadly, even if I collect all the Nine Chapters of Secrets, I may not be able to save anything.
I can tell you to give it a try. Oh, what an expensive attempt."
Situ Kong asked in confusion: "What is the connection between the Nine Chapters of Tianji and the person you want to restore?"
Su Wangting waved his hand: "Don't talk about this. I am telling you this to let you understand that once you miss some people, it will be a lifetime. What if you can achieve an amazing cultivation level? In the end, you will eventually find out, what kind of cultivation is it?"
For fame, fortune, and status, they are worthless compared to what you have lost!!"
Hearing this, Situ Kong lowered his head again, spread his palms, and gently stroked the broken strand of hair.
"What are you waiting for? Yeliu Country is only more than five thousand miles away from here. Compared with being a lifetime away, it is nothing."
Situ Kong took a deep breath, nodded heavily and carefully put away his broken hair: "You are right, I...can't leave regrets for the rest of my life!!"
After finishing speaking, Situ Kong turned around and strode away.
"Hey!!" Su Wangting suddenly stopped him, "Do you have any money? Can you afford a horse?"
Situ Kong, who was dressed in tatters, looked at Su Wangting blankly, shrugged, and spread out his two empty hands.
"wait."
As he spoke, Su Wangting took out a silk bag from his pocket, and when he was about to take out some gold ingots and give them to Situ Kong, he suddenly fell into a trance while staring at the bag.
This was originally given to him by Bai Kui.
The petite figure that had always followed him appeared before his eyes again.
"Hey, I said if you are going to give me alms, please hurry up." Situ Kong's voice came.
Su Wangting said "Oh", and dully took out two gold ingots from his pocket and threw them over.
"Generous! Farewell!!" Situ Kong took the gold ingot, cupped it in his hand, turned and left.
"Okay..." Su Wangting responded casually, still staring at the pocket in his hand in a daze.
After a long while, Su Wangting sighed softly and took out another paper bag from his pocket.
Opening it, there is another broken strand of hair.
The difference is that the broken strand of hair is tied up with a white string.
Bai Kui's broken hair.
"Oh, I actually went to teach others a lesson." Su Wangting stared at the broken hair in his hand and smiled bitterly, but the corners of his eyes became sore, "I am not the one who was given the broken hair." This chapter has been completed!
