Chapter 62: Lord Yang
"Now, the only way you want him to wake up is to bring him back to that place, that deep pool. Su Lao looked at Yin Ziqing, who was unconscious on An Sheng's back, and said.
The two of them came to the stone door, and Su Lao put his hand on a recessed round pit above, and the stone door immediately lit up and slowly lifted, revealing a dark passage with stone-paved steps.
"You'll have to find that place on your own, old man, and you'll have to stay here. A trace of loneliness flashed in Su Lao's eyes, and he said helplessly.
I can't leave this city yet.
"Hmm. An Sheng pursed his lips and nodded slightly.
The two of them walked down the stone steps of the passage, which was lined with brass lampstands with red candles decorated with gold threads burning and glowing dimly, barely illuminating the passage.
"Are you also running out of qi and blood now?" asked Su Lao suspiciously at An Sheng, who shook his head.
The four looked at each other, embarrassed for a while, and then An Sheng drilled out a silver-white ribbon in his sleeve, held Su Lao up, and in a blink of an eye, he reached the end of the passage, it was a dilapidated wooden block covering it to resist, An Sheng pushed it away, and got out of the passage.
"Whew..."
Exhaled with a breath of turbidity, An Sheng breathed in the fresh air of the outside world, and suddenly, at this time, snowflakes like goose feathers fell from the sky, and they fell to the ground several inches high.
"I didn't expect it to snow in the south this year. Su Lao stretched out his hand and stepped forward to catch a few falling snowflakes, which melted into a few droplets as soon as they fell into his hand.
The trees and flowers next to it were also covered with a thin layer of snow and frost, as if they were wearing a white coat, and whenever the wind blew, the branches would tremble and shake off the fine snow on them and press them on the bent grass.
The faint sound of footsteps on the snow came, and An Sheng looked, and from the corner behind him came a ragged, unkempt little beggar, about fifteen or sixteen years old, whose hair was now covered with fine snow, and his cheeks were red from the cold, and he was breathing into his hands.
The boy was also stunned when he saw An Sheng and Su Lao, reacted, and immediately ran forward and said anxiously: "Su Lao, Brother Xue Zhen, they were taken away by the people above, you go and save them!"
"Xiaoshun, when were they taken away?" Su Lao saw the boy's appearance clearly, it was the little beggar who had been brought back by Xue Zhen before, and then followed them to beg for a living.
Xiaoshun looked anxious, and for a while he was a little speechless, and gestured with his fingers, "Ah... Only... Three, not seven, June, yes, June!"
After speaking, he pointed to the gap in the wall next to him and said: "There was a fight at that time, Xue Zhen and Xue Xue were both seriously injured and dragged away by several men in black, we hid on the side and watched them but didn't pay attention. ”
The exit of the passage was in the backyard of the ancient temple, and at this time, the wall that was already somewhat dilapidated and black mottled next to it had broken into a large gap, and the cracks were dense around it, and there were scattered bricks and stones on the ground.
Su Lao sighed lightly, as if he had expected it, waved his hand and said, "Alas, it's time to meet them." ”
"Little Supreme, you can only go by yourself, the key to this young man's awakening lies in the pool, please be sure to find there. ”
Seeing Su Lao's complicated expression, An Sheng even claimed that the fine snow was blown off by the breeze and hung on the jade-like moist green silk, his fair face was a little poignant, and his eyes trembled slightly, but he was a little worried.
I don't know where this guy's hometown is, so it's good.
Su Lao seemed to see through An Sheng's mood, smiled slightly, and said, "You first take out the red beads that you touched from Yin Ziqing's body." ”
"Huh?"
When An Sheng heard Su Lao's words, his cheeks turned slightly red, he coughed unnaturally twice, took out the red beads from his arms, put them in his palm and handed them over.
Su Lao picked up the bead, pinched it between his fingers, and said slowly: "This bead is called plunder, and there is a heaven and earth in it, as long as you drop your own essence blood on the bead, you can enter." ”
"The power of blood in it can help your own qi and blood recovery and cultivation progress, but before you can activate all your own supreme treasures, it will only have the effect of replenishing qi and blood. ”
Hearing this, An Sheng nodded, took the bead, and carefully looked at the crystal clear red bead, "Plunder? ”
"Because the power of blood there is transformed from the qi and blood of living beings, those strange lights will stimulate the deep desire to fight, so that the living beings in it will kill each other, and the dead will turn into blood and qi for the victor to absorb. ”
Su Lao patiently explained Ansheng's doubts.
"Okay, it's not too early, I have to save the two brothers of the Xue family now, then, I wish the little supreme a smooth journey. Su Lao patted Xiaoshun on the back, and the two walked out towards the gap in the wall.
"Just leave? An Sheng muttered, Su Lao and Xiaoshun had disappeared from her field of vision, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost.
So now, it's time to get out of the city first.
An Sheng's mind moved, but he didn't use his treasure arts, his eyes vigilantly watched the surroundings, drilled out of the ancient temple, and continued to move quickly in the remote places of the alleys.
Elsewhere, in the midst of a splendid palace, a man sat on a chair in the middle of the hall, tapping his fingers on the armrests made of gold and silver, making a crisp sound.
The man was dressed in splendor, with a straight face, slightly white temples, and slightly wrinkled sword eyebrows, exuding the majesty of the superior.
"Phew!"
With each strike, the other two shirtless burly men swung their whips, with their tiny barbs densely packed, and fell on the beggar who was tied to the pillar in front of them, and the splatters of blood had stained the originally golden and supple blanket in front of the pillar, and the fine leather and hair were stuck together, and the roots stood up like thorns on thorns.
"It's been a few months since you were beaten, but you still refuse to speak?"
The man on the seat sighed lightly, and the woman waiting on the side saw this, and hurriedly knelt down and handed over the jade plate in her hand, "Lord Wang, please use tea." ”
"With tea, with tea, with tea......"
The man known as the prince raised his eyebrows and smiled, repeated what the maid said, shook his head, and reached out to pick up the teacup that was bubbling with a hint of white gas, made of fine jade, with the pattern of the divine birds soaring and flying on the ink painting, and the appearance was lifelike, as if it was about to fly out of the warm jade cup and rush into the sky.
"It's also a prince of one side in the next place, but I didn't expect it, but it's still not enough to let the two of you open the golden mouth?"
The prince said, picked up the jade cup, drank all the tea in it, gurgling, and sighed, as if he was not drinking tea, but a treasured thousand-year-old wine, refreshing.
wiped his mouth, but like a rough man sitting and drinking at a stall on the street, he looked at the embarrassed two people on the pillar, and said with a smile: "Or, I, Yang Xiao, have a treat today, but please have a few drinks together?"
"Hey, then dare to be kind, give me a few more pots of wine, get a few more side dishes to drink, see if I don't drink you upside down, my name is written upside down!" Xue Ji slowly raised his eyelids and said, but sticky blood flowed out of his mouth, a messy hair was scattered in front of him, and his clothes were wet with sweat all over his body, but there was no bitterness.
Now this tragic situation, but I am still in the mood to play haha.
On the other pillar, Xue Zhen closed his eyes and didn't say a word, since these days, he hasn't even had a muffled snort, if he wasn't still breathing, who would think that this was a living person?
The two men were tied to the stout pillars, and their already shabby clothes had long been torn to pieces by the cruel whip, leaving only the tattered ones hanging on them.
Most of the skin was exposed, stained with blood, most of which had formed blood scabs, and the wounds that had been drawn open were extremely hideous, and they were still bleeding outward, with yellow pus, and the cold wind blew in through the door, and the blood was still bubbling.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Yang Xiao applauded, but the teacup in his hand was thrown to the ground at random and cracked into pieces with a crisp sound, the maid hurriedly leaned down to clean up, but Yang Xiao ignored it, staring at Xue Xu, who was smiling, showed an appreciative gaze, the corners of his mouth rose and said: "Okay, pass the order, serve wine and food, I want to have a few drinks with these two big people." ”
"No. The maid on the other side made a promise, and hurriedly walked outside with lotus steps, calling to the slaves outside, and conveying Yang Xiao's order.
"Give them two unties. Yang Xiao waved his hand casually, and the two big men immediately stepped forward, untied the rope that bound the two and walked aside, and the two immediately fell down and fell to the ground.
The two stood up with their hands on the pillar, Xue Zhen opened his eyes and looked at Yang Xiao who was holding Erlang's legs on it, but he was not moved at all, as if everything had nothing to do with him, and the shocking wounds on his body did not exist at all.
Xue Xue was slurking, touching his wounds, bursting with pain, and bared his teeth and said to Yang Xiao: "The prince really looks down on our two brothers, and it is a rope and a whip, but it is really an honor for me." ”
He said with a smile, but his gaze was extremely cold.
Yang Xiao didn't think so, leaned back and said lightly: "Of course, of course, you have to use a good posture to treat VIPs in order to show your respect for the two of you." ”
After speaking, he sneered a few times, but sat up straight and narrowed his eyes slightly, "I just hope that the value of the two of you can be worthy of my hospitality." ”
