Chapter 8 Solving doubts and going home separately
In the dark dungeon, Huang Shuai woke up from the severe pain. There was endless confusion in his eyes. Ever since Huangfu Xiong came, I don't know how he survived the past half month. Every day is endless.
Interrogation and endless torture. But when they repeated everything they knew, they received even more cruel punishments.
Staring straight at the dim oil lamp outside the cell, for the first time, I had deep doubts about the family I had always had unlimited hope for. In order to prevent them from committing suicide, it can be said that only the eyes can move freely in the whole body.
.Looking at Han Zhong and others from the corner of his eye, he felt a sense of desolation in his heart.
Han Zhong's body was stained with blood. He is still unconscious. Zhao Ruishan was hung upside down in the corner with two shocking wounds on his face. The worst one was Guo Shujun, just because he had such an explosive temper and did not understand the importance of his words, so
All the bones in his body were broken and bruised all over his body. He was piled aside as soft as a noodle. The blood had seeped into his clothes and gradually formed a stream under his body.
Huang Shuai felt that his nose was a little sore. He recalled that when they were young, although they had always known that the family was gradually declining, they still dreamed of one day using their own efforts to bring it back to its former glory. But what about now? Efforts have been made to escape death.
What he got in exchange was the ignorance of life and death and the abandonment of his family. In fact, he didn't want much. Even if someone came to see him and told him that the family tried their best but there was nothing they could do, then he would accept his fate. But now...
He sighed secretly. Counting the time, it’s almost time for interrogation again. I wonder what the tricks will be like? My brothers and sisters are almost exhausted physically and mentally, and looking at their appearance, their patience is almost worn out. With these people,
Why do people care about their own life and death? Maybe in their eyes, they are not even ants, right? I hope that it will be easier and less tortured by then. He is thinking wildly here, and only hears outside
There was a noise of footsteps, not only a wry smile in my heart, it was really good but not bad, so I simply closed my eyes and left it to fate whether I would live or die. I have been really tired these years.
I saw a large number of people pouring in between the opening and closing of the iron gate. The leader was Zhang Fu, a close confidant arranged by Huangfu Xiong. After he came in, he couldn't help but frown when he saw the miserable state of several people. He waved his hand, and several people came up from behind and started to look at each other.
It was the doctor from the city lord's palace who said anxiously: "Come over and see if you can get them back to normal in the shortest possible time."
An old man in the lead stepped forward and carefully inspected the injuries of several people, then shook his head and said: "Impossible! The most minor ones here are severed meridians, displaced internal organs, and the wound on the face of the one hanging upside down is too deep. In addition,
It has been left untreated for too long, and it has become suppurative and rotten. There is no other way but to remove all the rotten flesh. Moreover, if it is not treated in time, I am afraid that my life will not be saved. And the worst thing is that the person lying in the corner has bone marrow all over his body.
If he is completely broken and his cultivation is completely useless, even if he is saved, he will probably be able to spend the rest of his life in bed!"
Zhang Fu became even more upset after hearing this. He paced back and forth for a few steps. The men in the hall were still waiting. If it took too long and anyone blamed him, he would have his head moved! But could he lift it out like this? He couldn't even see it.
After that, let alone the rightful owner, gritted his teeth,
"A few imperial doctors, please take these people to other hospitals for treatment, and try to make them recover as quickly as possible in the shortest time. I will deal with the city lord!" After the explanation, he turned around and walked out.
As he approached the door, he suddenly stopped and paused:
"If possible, I hope they will remain unconscious for three days!"
Not to mention the busy work in the dungeon, Zhang Fu returned to the hall with his clothes disheveled and his hair in a messy bun. After looking at it, it seemed that he still felt that it was not enough. He gritted his teeth and slapped his chest three times in a row, and he immediately became energetic.
Withered, a blood arrow suddenly spurted out. Then he stumbled to the hall and said anxiously:
"This subordinate deserves to die. He failed to fulfill his master's orders and is willing to be punished!"
Of course Huangfu Xiong knew the situation of Huang Shuai and the others, but he didn't know how to explain it to Zuitian. When he saw Zhang Fu coming like this, he couldn't help being shocked and asked in a loud voice:
"Zhang Fu, how did you do things? How did you end up like this! Didn't you ask me to bring people here? Why did you come back by yourself?"
Zhang Fu knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly: "Lord, please calm down. My subordinates went to the annex of the Houfu and invited four young masters to move here. However, as soon as they left the room, they were attacked by assassins! The attack was very heavy. The subordinates and guards
It took a desperate effort to repel the assassins, but the four young masters were also seriously injured. Now they have invited the imperial doctor to treat them with all their strength. Zhang Fu was not able to do things well and had no face to see his lord again, but he was worried that his lord was impatient, so he came here alive.
No matter how he fares after his return to life, Zhang Fu will never complain!"
After hearing this, Huangfu Xiong praised Zhang Fu's alertness in his heart. It was really difficult for him to come up with such a plan in such a short period of time. However, the whole play still had to be performed, so he slapped the table hard.
, scolding Zhang Fu:
"What else do you think a slave like you can do? I've raised you losers for nothing! Come on! Pull Zhang Fu down and put him in the dungeon! Wait for disposal!"
Immediately, two people came in from outside and carefully carried Zhang Fu out. Zhang Fu also knew in his heart that this matter was over for the time being, at least his life was saved these days!
There was a mocking expression on Zuitian's face, and he looked at Huangfu Xiong with a smile. Huangfu Xiong pretended not to see anything and said kindly:
"Oh, the world is really going downhill! I didn't expect that there would be assassins committing crimes in the clear sky! It seems that we really need to investigate carefully!"
Zuitian said: "Yes, to be able to bypass the strict protection of the City Lord's Mansion in broad daylight, seriously injure a few inconspicuous people without alerting anyone, and then escape unscathed, this is really
It’s not something ordinary people can do!”
Huangfu Xiong could hear the doubts and dissatisfaction in his words, but it only lasted for a moment. Don't think that other aristocratic families would take the responsibility for him. They were all cleaning up the snow on their own, and no one wanted to do it to him.
You are getting into trouble! Besides, this is in your own city lord's mansion. Even if you say it has nothing to do with you...someone has to believe it!
Huangfu Xiong paused and said:
"Since the lives of Huang Shuai and others have nothing to do with it, can junior brother clear up our doubts?"
Zuitian nodded lazily: "That's why I'm here, and if I don't explain it clearly, I'm afraid you won't be willing to accept it. It's annoying to use such methods. It's better for me to come to your door and solve it all at once.
Everyone is happy!"
After saying that, he changed into a more comfortable position and said, "But there are so many of you, so it's better to choose two people to serve as representatives. Anyway, you all have the same department."
After a brief discussion, everyone decided that Huangfu Xiong and Zhong Liming would ask the question. The selection of Huangfu Xiong was not surprising, but Zhong Liming was not the oldest, nor the highest in cultivation, but he was still selected. This shows that
Popularity is definitely the strongest. But now that they have decided, Zuitian will not say anything more:
"Okay, so what do you want to know?"
Huangfu Xiong and Zhong Liming exchanged glances, Zhong Liming nodded at him, and then Huangfu Xiong said:
"First of all, we want to know what caused the change in the secret realm?"
When he got down to business, everyone's ears froze.
Zuitian replied casually: "The changes in the secret realm were caused by changes in one of the strange formations."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a trace of uneasiness, and Zhong Liming immediately asked: "So, fellow Taoist, do you know what changes have occurred? That led to such a huge change?"
This is the key to the matter. Everyone in the hall is looking forward to his answer. Zui Tian knows that this is what they want to know most. After thinking about it, he slowly said: "You said that the changes in the secret realm are caused by changes in the formation.
Fellow Taoist Dufeng of the Xuantian Sect said that in his opinion, the entire Kyushu Secret Realm is connected and can be divided into five parts. One part is the formation that has undergone changes this time, and the other part is to restrain it or to
The great formation that seals it! In other words, the secret realm itself is composed of two formations!"
Everyone was not very surprised by this, which made Zuitian even more certain that they must all know something about it, otherwise how could they be so calm? Huangfu Xiong asked doubtfully: "Xuantian Sect Dufeng? Have you never heard of this person?"
So, did Junior Brother see anything else special?"
"Of course!" Zuitian replied without hesitation: "Actually, I found a location according to the map given by my master. Unexpectedly, it was exactly where the formation's eye was. Fellow Taoist Dufeng of Xuantian Sect found it.
It was another formation eye. We inadvertently touched the formation, causing a change. A light gate appeared in the sky, and a man with wings came towards us with a lightsaber and the power of heaven and earth.
My cultivation is not enough, so I have no choice but to retreat. But Taoist Fellow Dufeng used a magic weapon to defeat the lightsaber and break the light door in one fell swoop, so that I, Huang Shuai and others can escape with their lives."
After hearing this, everyone had mixed expressions, ranging from excitement to fear. They already believed 80% of what he said, because if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you can't make up the light gate, lightsaber, and people with wings! The meaning of these existences is only for people from aristocratic families like them.
Only the most central person knew! After a long silence, Zhong Liming still asked: "Then what magic weapon did fellow Taoist Dufeng sacrifice? And where is he now?"
Zuitian looked at him and said softly: "What he sacrificed was a colorful lotus platform! And fellow Taoist Dufeng also died because of excessive consumption!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard about the colorful lotus platform before, but then they breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Du Feng Shen Yun. Huangfu Xiong asked hesitantly: "I wonder where the colorful lotus platform is now? It can't be on my junior brother.
Bar?"
Shizuitian's heart tightened, and he said calmly: "Looking at your appearance, you should know some information about this treasure, right? Then do you think it is impossible to obtain such an important treasure under my conditions? Oh, I forgot to mention it.
In a sentence, fellow Taoist Dufeng is the legendary Five Elements Treasure Body! The Five Elements gather together! I wonder if I don’t have this qualification.”
Everyone exchanged glances and nodded slightly, seeming to agree with his statement. The lotus platform was like a divine object in their hearts. How could it be taken away so easily? It had been bothering them for so long.
The knot in my heart was cleared in just a few words. But a bigger stone also came down. Zhong Liming was the first to propose leaving:
"This trip has been fruitful, and I would like to thank Brother Huangfu for his warm hospitality. However, I still have some trivial matters at home, so let's say goodbye and meet again someday!" After saying that, he left without waiting for Huangfu Xiong to be detained.
With one person leaving, the others couldn't sit still. Such a big thing must be reported to the family as soon as possible, so they all said goodbye and left in twos and threes. Huangfu Xiong also understood what they were thinking and didn't stay any longer.
As soon as they saw each other off, soon he and Zuitian were the only two people left in the hall. Zuitian put down the wine jar in his hand and said:
"Senior brother, although the wine you have here is good, but now that I can fulfill my promise to you, can I also see Huang Shuai and the others?"
Huangfu Xiong knew it would happen sooner or later. He sighed, "Okay, please come with me, brother." After saying that, he led Zuitian to the back courtyard.
