Chapter 130: The Disappearing Token
Mantuo Mountain of Mantuo Religion, Forgetful Lake under Mantuo Mountain.
Who would have thought that there would be a hole in the lake?
Even Gu Renxi didn't know that there was an iron prison at the bottom of the Forgotten Lake, which was built more than thirty years ago, under the instruction of the old sect leader, supervised by Gu Sanniang and Xie Qingyun. Now, there are probably only three people in the world who know about this matter, and that is Gu Sanniang, Shen Xiaoxun and Xiuyan.
The iron prison at the bottom of the lake is damp and cold, and it can be reached directly through the dark passage at the foot of Mantuo Mountain, which is really ingenious.
There has been a man locked up in the iron prison for many years, roughly calculated, maybe five years! Due to the abolition of the man's martial arts, coupled with the restraint of cumbersome shackles, every step he took was difficult.
There is no light of day in the iron prison all year round, day and night are indistinguishable, and it is muddy, even if it is two meals a day, it is impossible to tell whether it is breakfast or dinner. The thick door of the cell made a familiar and heavy "squeak", and it was only when the meal was delivered that a trace of anger was felt at the bottom of the lifeless lake.
The man was unkempt and curled up in the corner, and when he heard the sound of the door, he looked up happily, but the person who came was not Xiuyan who delivered the meal, but Shen Xiaoxun, who was gloomy and cold.
After he looked at Shen Xiaoxun, he turned around in horror and hugged his head, squatting in the corner of the wall and trembling.
Shen Xiaoxun's expression was solemn, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, his eyes were a little deeper, and he thought to himself: This Lu saw Pei have been crazy for three years, and he can't imagine that he is still so crazy today, is he really crazy or pretending to be crazy?
He moved slowly closer with a heavy mind, the pin fan was held at his waist, and the man sensed his approach, buried his head lower, and his whole body trembled even more. It doesn't look like it's pretending!
"I have something for you!" Shen Xiaoxun approached and bent down and patted him on the shoulder, and he immediately fled to another corner like a frightened bird, maintaining his previous posture.
Shen Xiaoxun straightened up and walked over impatiently, and grabbed the man violently, without giving him any chance to breathe and resist, grabbed his throat and pressed him into the corner.
"Lu Jianpei! Let me ask you one last time, where is the last piece of agarwood begonia? Shen Xiaoxun's eyes glared angrily, and his eyes seemed to be about to erupt with fire.
Lu saw that Pei's expression was extremely uncomfortable, his facial features were about to come together, his bulging cheeks were suffocated and red, and he couldn't even hide the dirty stains on his face.
"I-well-hungry......" His two paws tightly grasped Shen Xiaoxun's wrists, and he held back these three words intermittently.
“……”
Shen Xiaoxun let go of his hand angrily, and his white sleeves were scratched dirty.
Lu saw Pei clutching his throat and squatting down the corner of the wall again, looking up at Shen Xiaoxun in fear.
Shen Xiaoxun looked down at him helplessly and calmly: "You really don't know where the last piece of agarwood begonia order is?" ”
Lu saw that Pei didn't seem to understand his words, and just looked at him in a daze.
Shen Xiaoxun took a breath of anger, raised his hand and hit Lu Jianpei's Tianling Gai with the pin fan in his hand, and the bright red blood flowed down his forehead one by one, seeping into his eyes and seeping into his mouth, his eyes were dull, and he leaned limply against the corner of the wall, already out of breath.
Shen Xiaoxun flicked his sleeves and walked out of the iron prison, the cell door was closed with a "boom", and the echo was stretched out in this dark secret passage.
The nine tokens have all returned to the Begonia Pavilion, and there is no "Cross-Stitch Needle" and treasure map in those nine tokens, no wonder Lu Jian Pei Ken easily told the whereabouts of the nine tokens! But with his character, there is no need to beat around the bush with me, he may not really know where the last token is...... But whether it was to collect ten pieces to get these things or whether these things were hidden in the last token, Mu Haitang should not be without action...... What's the problem?
The deeper Shen Xiaoxun thought, the tighter his brows wrinkled.
"Xie Lang! How's it going? Xiuyan suddenly appeared in front of him, and those thoughts that were in strands immediately turned into dandelions that blew away.
"It's fine!" Shen Xiaoxun looked at her in a daze, and after smiling lightly, he was held by Xiuyan's arm, and walked towards the exit of the secret passage with his ten fingers clasped.
After leaving the dark passage, the sunlight sprinkled on the faces of the two like honey, and the warmth came to their faces. The sparkling surface of the lake in the sun is also a sight to behold, and the mood is soothing.
Shen Xiaoxun forgot the intricate troubles for a while, and said leisurely: "Xiuyan, has the news spread?" ”
Although Xie Lang is relieved, now everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that there are nine pieces of agarwood begonia orders that have returned to the Begonia Pavilion, and the last piece of agarwood begonia orders is missing. Now many sects have sent people to squat in Suzhou, waiting for the opportunity to move, and even my uncle asked me to go to Suzhou immediately yesterday! ”
"Hmm!" Shen Xiaoxun nodded with satisfaction, and praised without hesitation, "Good job!" Suzhou is Mu Haitang's territory, he won't know this! Now it's up to him to respond! ”
——
Twilight fell into the high-rise building, Mu Haitang stood in front of the window lattice of Gongsexuan, holding the window edge with both hands, looking at the scenery at dusk, with a solemn expression: Song Xiang, Zhou Langhe, Ding Ruoshuang, Xu Lizheng, Mu Chuyu, Luoxiang, Lin Zhicheng, Yan Yiqin, Xiuyan, where did the agarwood begonia order in their hands come from? Now that the nine pieces of agarwood begonia have all returned to the Begonia Pavilion, who released the news?
Mu Haitang gradually closed his eyes, and the images of several people appeared in his mind, and he slowly sat down: Song Xiang - Duan Liling, Zhou Langhe - Pei Yao, Shen Xiaoxun, Ding Ruoshuang - Pei Yao, Shen Xiaoxun, Xu Lizheng - Duan Liling, Mu Chuyu - Pei Yao, Shen Xiaoxun, Luo Xiang - Pei Yao, Lin Zhicheng - Duan Liling, Yan Yiqin - Pei Yao, Xiu Yan - I, Pei Yao knows five tokens, Shen Xiaoxun knows three, Duan Liling knows three, none of them are people who have touched all the tokens......
Mu Haitang's green tendons bulged on the back of his hand, his nails picked at the window lattice fiercely, and a trace of sharp light flashed in his eyes the moment he opened his eyes.
——
The Begonia Hall has never been brightly lit at this moment, and it has never been so lively. Under the jade steps from left to right stand the red begonia disciples headed by Duan Liling, the white begonia disciples headed by Shen Xiaoxun, and the weeping silk begonia disciples headed by Pei Yao, the red begonia disciples are wearing red dresses, the white begonia disciples are wearing white dresses, and the disciples of the weeping silk begonias are wearing goose yellow dresses.
This is the first time that all the disciples have gathered together in more than 20 years since the establishment of the Begonia Pavilion. They usually face each other face-to-face, and they don't necessarily know that the other party is in the same family, especially those who are distributed all over the country and have the lowest level.
