Yao Lao said, raised his hand and pointed at us, and the man and I were secretly startled, but when we looked closely, we found that his finger was not pointing at any of us, but behind us.
When I looked back, I saw that the door of a room behind us was open, and a haggard, aged woman was standing there holding the door, looking straight at the people behind us, with a look of surprise on her face.
I looked at this woman, and she was very familiar with her, I should have known her before, and even the man who was holding me saw her, his eyes flickered, and his face showed a look of shock, and he said, "What?
"Not bad. β
The woman also walked out slowly, she looked very unwell, her expression was also a little trance, she didn't seem to be a sober and rational person, but a little crazy, a pair of hands stretched out to Yao Lao, and muttered: "You...... You...... You'reβ"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly smiled again: "It's you, it turned out to be you!"
The man holding me frowned.
"Okay, okay, I'll go with you, you take me to play!
The woman was obviously very happy, and smiled happily at Yao Lao, although she was no longer young, but it could be seen that she should be an outstanding beauty when she was young, and this smile also revealed a bit of the charm of the past, which made people unable to take their eyes off, but Yao Lao looked at her crazy appearance gloomily.
Yao Lao looked up and said, "Are you willing?"
The man's eyes flashed, and he said, "What is your relationship with her?"
Yao Lao fell silent, his mouth closed tightly, as if he didn't intend to speak again.
"It seems that I underestimated you, and you actually have something to do with her?"
ββ¦β¦β
Yao Lao's mouth closed even tighter.
The man thought for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Well, she should have been dead anyway, and it's useless for me to keep it." If you want to take her away, take her away. Just a little, take it away, and don't let her come back, or else - she should be a dead person after all. β
As soon as he let go, Yao Lao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the woman had already walked over with a smile and said, "Let's go, take me to play." β
Yao Lao looked at her, sighed sadly, and was about to turn around and take her away, but she suddenly stopped again, looked back, and said with a somewhat blank look: "By the way, son, where is my son?
Son? She has a son?
I heard her call her son, and somehow I felt a pain in my heart, and I couldn't help moaning, and the man immediately hugged me tightly, and Yao Lao had already said to the woman, "Let's go." If you want to find your son, I'll take you to find it. β
With that, he turned away with her, and the men cautiously withdrew.
For a while, most of the people in this courtyard walked away, and the originally tense atmosphere eased at this time.
But my heart was cramping for a while, so painful that I gritted my teeth, my face turned white, and the man holding me hurriedly bowed his head and said, "What's wrong with you?
"......" I gritted my teeth and couldn't speak, but at this time, the man named Yang Yunhui came over, looked at me, looked at the man again, and said, "Third brother, she isβ"
Third brother?!
As soon as I heard this title, my head suddenly buzzed.
Third brother?!three?!
I looked up at him all of a sudden, "You'reβ"
He looked down at me, it was so familiar, there were countless images in my mind, but I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart, and suddenly my eyes turned white and I fainted......
When I woke up again, I don't know how long I had been unconscious, and my eyes were blurry, as if there was smoke.
I looked at it for a long time, only to realize that it was the curtain on the bed.
At this time, a deep voice came from his ear, saying: "The situation over there in Xichuan is very complicated, far stricter than we thought before. β
"Oh, what the hell is the origin of that sect? β
"I found out in Xichuan that the Changming Sect was formed by combining the forces dissatisfied with the imperial court in the three provinces of Jiangnan, Xichuan, and Mandi, and their purpose was to overthrow the imperial court and restore the old system. β
"Hmph. β
"The forces within the Changming Sect are very strictly divided, with the Huisheng Medicine Shop, the Jiangwu Hall and the Xishan Academy as the branches, with one person as the leader, responsible for their respective tasks. β
"In other words, in the Changming Sect, there are three deacons?"
"Not bad. β
"Have you found out who it is?"
"Their internal information is very tight, and I can't find out the specific identities of these three people, but I found out that they called it 'Three Masters', a pharmacist, in charge of the Huisheng Medicine Shop, and controlled more than half of the circulation of medicinal materials in the black market in the richest area in Jiangnan, so it can be said that the money of the entire Changming Sect is in his hands. β
"This person should be Yao Lao. β
"Yes. There is also a 'martial artist', who was born in the martial arts hall, and is responsible for the personnel scheduling of the disciples in the Changming Sect, and at the same time cultivating elite killers. Although Huang Tianba refused to speak, I think it has nothing to do with him. β
"So, what about the other one?"
"There is another one, known as the 'military teacher', who ostensibly teaches in the academy and teaches to the students, but in fact, he is responsible for all the actions in the sect, and we have suffered losses on the road and Yangzhou several times, all thanks to this person. β
"Strategist, it seems that this person is the core of the entire sect. β
"And...... Since the sect was founded in Shudi, and Shu is the territory of the Yan family, I guess that this military advisor should be a member of the Yan family!"
Yan family!
When I heard this, my chest was suffocated, and I almost coughed, so I could only hold it myself, and turned my head slightly, and found myself sleeping in a delicate bedroom, with a thick mattress on the carved wooden bed, very comfortable, and this room was also spacious and bright, with a crystal bead curtain hanging on the door, swaying and revealing a dreamlike brilliance.
The voices of those two people came from outside.
I bothered up in a daze and wanted to sit up, reaching out to lift the curtain, still thinking in my heart that what they just said should be the people who confronted them in that courtyard before, it seems that they are two great forces, and they are even related to the imperial court.
I didn't feel dizzy, I finally sat up, and I heard Yang Yunhui's voice again, and said, "This time, I also found a very important thing." β
"What's the matter?"
"I heard that more than twenty years ago, that sect once collected dozens of beauties in the entire southwest and trained them, although this matter has been sealed for decades, some people still remember, so I heard about some shadows. β
"What do they do?"
"I heard that the sect selected thirty women who were very outstanding in appearance, character, and conduct, and locked them in a mansion for thirty days, and on the first day, they were only given food utensils for twenty-nine people, and after two days, they were given to twenty-eight people, and so on. β
As I listened, my heart jumped.
"There are no sharp weapons in the house, they are not allowed to hurt people, after a month, they can finally come out alive, but only one or two people, the women who survive, are very means, and they are careful and vicious, there is no blood on their hands, but they all have human lives. β
I heard it in a cold sweat all over my body, this kind of practice is so cruel!
Man has ceased to be human, as if he were a beast for man's pleasure, locked in a cage to fight and watch!
The people outside seemed to feel the same way, and after a long silence, the man said in a hoarse voice: "The woman who survived, what happened?"
"I was sent to the capital. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Originally, we have been wondering why she has a marrow washing flower in her hand, although I have checked in Xichuan for so long, and there are no clues about her, but now it seems that there should be her among the women who survived. β
She ...... She ......"
"Moreover, I asked people to check the living notes of more than 20 years ago overnight, and found that she and Miss Nangong's family were originally just for the original promotion, so they were married, not real relatives, and her identity should still be checked. β
"Hmph, if it weren't for her, how could Lizhu beβ"
He gritted his teeth at this sentence, as if he was about to bite something, but he didn't finish it, but the anger in his words couldn't be hidden, and even penetrated through the beaded curtain, and I couldn't help coughing all of a sudden.
"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"
As soon as the people outside heard my voice, they immediately stood up, and then they saw the man open the curtain and walked in, and saw me sitting on the edge of the bed, and hurriedly walked over: "Are you awake?"
I looked up at him, his face still had the anger that could fade in the future, but there was still a trace of concern in his cold eyes, and he sat down and stretched out his hand to hug me: "Still sad?"
"I didn't ...... ......No," I said, coughing a few more times, slightly out of breath.
He didn't say anything, he simply pulled me into his arms, one hand held me, the other hand caressed my back, the body temperature from the warm and thick palm made me feel a little more comfortable, slowly stopped coughing, and looked at him with a slight gasp.
He also looked down at me, there seemed to be something hidden in his dark eyes, but he was so close that he couldn't see anything clearly, and only asked me, "Are you feeling better?"
For some reason, I was a little flustered by his eyes, and lowered my head: "No, it's okay." β
He looked at me, but his eyes became deeper, as if he wanted to say something, and Yang Yunhui outside had already said through the wall: "Third brother." β
As soon as I heard this title, my heart sank again, and he had already gotten up and walked out, and the two of them seemed to have walked to the door, and faintly heard Yang Yunhui say: "Third brother, I still have a word to tell you." β
"Huh?"
"More than 20 years ago, they would send people to the capital, not necessarily now, no. β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'm only afraid of ......"
