CHAPTER XXXV
Dugu Ruoxiong regarded the Iron Lord as a trusted friend, but the Iron Lord betrayed him and reported the matter to the Blood Shadow Sect Master.
Chengjiu wine killed Dugu Ruoxiong, which was also caused by him.
Yan Ting sighed deeply and asked, "Why did the Blood Shadow want me to kill you?" Did the master of the door also suspect you? ”
The Iron Lord nodded: "Yes, he rarely really trusts others. ”
Yan Ting asked, "Who is the true identity of the Blood Shadow Sect Master?" ”
The Iron Lord said: "I will never say it. ”
Yan Ting suddenly said sharply: "Would you rather die than say?" ”
The Iron Lord smiled miserably: "If I say it, everyone in my entire mansion will die, but I don't say it, I'm the only one who died." ”
Before Yan Ting could speak, Dongfang Shenwei said coldly: "Don't think that I will let your family go, if you commit an unforgivable sin, they will also die." ”
The Iron King smiled: "You won't, because you treat me as a friend, and you have taken my son as an apprentice, you have been an upright person all your life, and you will never do anything to destroy the door." ”
Dongfang Shenwei was silent, and his face was gloomy as if black charcoal.
Yan Ting also sighed, and finally asked, "Have you told Dugu Mingyue about Dugu Xiaoying's hiding place?" ”
The Iron King said, "No." ”
This answer made Yan Ting feel a little more at ease, and said to Dongfang Shenwei: "I don't have anything to ask, he will leave it to you to deal with, and I will wait for you in Baihualou." ”
After saying that, Yan Ting was about to leave, but the Iron Lord stopped him and asked, "Aren't you curious, why did the Blood Shadow chase you?" ”
Yan Ting stopped and stared at the Iron Prince.
The Iron Lord said calmly: "With just one person's gossip, the master of the door will not kill you so much, he wants to cultivate you." ”
Yan Ting said: "He wants to train me? ”
Iron Lord nodded and said with a smile: "He is choosing someone who can replace him, you are one of his favorites, so is Chen Baixian, and so is Chengjiujiu." ”
Yan Ting couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and raised his voice and asked, "Are you joking with me?" ”
The Iron Lord drank a cup of tea before he smiled: "The trials you are going through now are deliberately done by him, and he also knows how much you hate him now and how much you want to kill him, these are what he wants." ”
Yan Ting said: "You mean, he wants me to kill him and then sit in his place?" ”
The Iron King said, "Not bad. ”
Yan Ting scolded: "It's nonsense, I can tell you right now that I hate him alone, and he is not the only one who wants to kill, and I will make the entire Blood Shadow Gate completely disappear in the rivers and lakes." ”
The Iron King said, "I know you'll do it, but that's what he wants." ”
Yan Ting didn't want to stay here for a moment, and didn't give Iron Lord a chance to say more, and said to Dongfang Shenwei: "He will leave it to you to dispose of, and I will wait for you in Baihualou." ”
Dongfang Shenwei nodded, there was no need for Yan Ting to continue to stay here at this moment.
As soon as Yan Ting walked out of the inner courtyard, he found a majestic man with a height of nine feet waiting in the corridor, as if he was waiting for Yan Ting.
His eyes were red, as if he was experiencing great pain, and he was a little excited to see Yan Jing come over, but he didn't speak.
This man Yan Ting has seen it, he hid in the mansion for nearly a month when he assassinated the Iron Prince, and he knew that this was the Iron Prince's son Tiefutu
Yan Ting walked past him, stopped behind him, and asked, "You already know?" ”
Tiefutu nodded, his tone with a little cry: "But I don't believe it, my father told me ......"
"You will be the new Iron King, and the Iron King's Mansion will be in charge of you!" Yan Ting paused and continued: "Don't do the wrong things your father did, no matter what kind of danger you are in, you must keep your heart and hold your ground. ”
Tiefu Tu breathed a long sigh of relief, tried to calm himself, and said to Yan Ting behind him: "I will not forget what you did to my father, no matter what reason you have, you are the enemy of the Iron King's Mansion. ”
Yan Ting was a little melancholy, but nodded: "I know." ”
The two walked one after the other, and when Yan Ting walked to the end of the corridor, the voice of Tiefutu came from behind him: "But you are not my enemy, if he sees each other outside in the future, I hope to drink with you!" ”
Yan Ting was shocked, and shouted on the spot: "Okay! ”
Chengjiu drank very diligently, there was not much wine left in the wine gourd, and several masters who were still kneeling on the ground had some sweat on their heads, I don't know if it was because of the physical exhaustion caused by kneeling on the ground, or the fear that slowly grew in their hearts.
Chengjiujiu, this name is just an ordinary name for people who have never heard of it, but for those who know her, it is a demon god that must not be provoked.
How did a little girl with a sweet appearance practice peerless martial arts? No one knows, and Chengjiujiu has never told anyone about his life experience.
With just Fang Cai's understated sword, they knew that if Yan Ting still did not appear after drinking the wine in the Nine Wine Gourd in the city, that moment would be their death.
Maybe it's their luck, destiny makes them not deserve to die today.
Yan Ting's footsteps came from inside the mansion, and Chengjiu Wine just drank the last sip of wine.
Cheng Jiujiu stood up and smiled at these people: "Now you don't have to kneel anymore. ”
When Dugu Xiaoying had not left home, her eldest brother Dugu Mingyue brought back a girl from outside.
She seemed to be mute, and no one had heard her speak since she came to Dugu Mansion for several months, but the first time Dugu Xiaoying saw the girl, she could see that this girl was not unable to speak, but that she was no longer interested.
Dugu Mingyue told Xiaoying that this was the girl he picked up in a mass grave, and at that time, the girl's unclothed body was pressed against three wild men from the countryside, and she didn't have any resistance to let the hands of those men wander around her body, she just stared at the sky with a blank gaze, as if she had lost her soul as an empty shell.
An empty shell? Dugu Xiaoying looked at the girl who was sitting alone in the corner away from the crowd, the girl sat here when she went to practice in the early morning, and now she is still sitting here at sunset, Dugu Xiaoying walked to the kitchen and brought a leftover meal and a pot of water and put it in front of the girl, and asked, "You have been sitting here for almost a whole day, don't you feel hungry?" ”
The girl looked at the leftovers in front of her, reached out and grabbed a steamed bun and gnawed it, she ate very quickly, and after a while, it was clean, and then she raised her head and looked at the sky, her eyes still did not have any brilliance.
This is not the first time Dugu Xiaoying has accosted her, and Xiaoying also failed to let her speak.
The next morning, Dugu Xiaoying opened the door, it rained all night last night, the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard mixed with the aroma of wet earth made her feel a little happy, picked up the pear blossom and walked out of the door to prepare to practice the sword, when passing by the compound, Xiaoying stopped, stared at the girl sitting in the corner.
This girl stayed here all night?
Dugu Xiaoying quickly ran to the girl's side, touched the girl's clothes and was really soaked, Xiaoying scolded anxiously: "Are you a fool?" Don't know where to go back when it's raining? ”
The girl looked at Xiaoying, still with empty eyes, Xiaoying didn't talk nonsense, and directly picked her up and ran to her room, threw her on the bed, took off the girl's clothes, took the futon and covered the girl tightly, and hurriedly boiled a few buckets of hot water, when Xiaoying ran back to the room with the bucket sweating profusely, the girl stood naked in front of the window, quietly looking at the clouds in the sky.
Xiaoying was shocked, picked up the girl and threw it into the bathtub with an arrow step, poured warm hot water on the girl, the girl shivered and snorted comfortably, Xiaoying first let her soak herself and hurriedly slipped to the kitchen to get some snacks, and couldn't help but pinch the girl's mouth and stuff it in, while scolding: "Are you a fool?" No matter what you've been through, you shouldn't torture yourself like this. ”
"Why did you do this to me?"
The girl's voice was as light as a wing, and Xiaoying, who was wiping her body for her, thought that her ears were hallucinating, and asked in surprise, "You were talking just now?" What are you talking about? ”
"Why did you do this to me?" The girl looked at Dugu Xiaoying and asked softly, her eyes lit up slightly.
Dugu Xiaoying was inexplicably a little happy, wiped the girl's long hair with a towel, and said, "There is no reason, since you are here, it means that you are a guest of the Dugu family and a friend of every Dugu child." ”
"Friends?"
"Yes, friend." Dugu Xiaoying wiped the water droplets on the girl's body clean, took out her new clothes to change into, and said with a smile: "No matter what kind of suffering you have suffered, those will only become the past, no one will bully you here, you can do what you want and live a new life." ”
"A new ...... life"
The girl kept repeating this sentence, and suddenly reached out and touched Xiaoying's face, although Xiaoying was a little puzzled, she didn't dodge, and let the girl in front of her caress her face.
The girl's eyes gradually brightened, and tears flowed.
"I want to learn martial arts."
Dugu Xiaoying grabbed the girl's hand, pinched the girl a little darkly, and then showed a painful look, and said, "Your foundation is too poor, and it will be very difficult to learn martial arts." ”
"I must learn."
"Why do you have to learn martial arts?" Xiaoying asked puzzled.
"I have people to protect." The girl's gaze was determined.
Dugu Xiaoying couldn't understand that this young and weak girl would have the idea of protecting others, she couldn't bear to refuse this girl, lowered her head and thought for a moment, patted the girl's head and smiled: "To protect others, you don't necessarily have to know martial arts, I will take you to meet someone, and she will teach you." ”
The Dugu family has a foothold in the world, but not all orphan girls have to learn swords, and the person Dugu Xiaoying took her to see was her sixth sister Dugu Wenruo.
"What's your name?"
"Yan Qing."
"Xiao Yanqing, you have to listen well, my sister has a cold temper and a quiet personality, don't talk too much." Dugu Xiaoying took Yan Qing's hand and instructed outside the door, and then patted her head and scolded with a smile: "What I said is a bit redundant, you don't seem to be good at talking." ”
Xiaoying knocked on the door, and the person in the room said, "Please come in." ”
Xiaoying gently pushed the door, this room was very large but extremely empty, only a bed and a woman in green in a wheelchair, Xiaoying said softly: "Sixth sister, I brought a younger sister over and wanted her to learn from you." ”
Dugu Wenruo looked at Yan Qing beside Xiaoying for a while before asking Dugu Xiaoying, "What do you want me to teach her?" ”
"You can teach her, teach her." The Dugu family has a foothold in the world, but not all orphan girls have to learn swords, and the person Dugu Xiaoying took her to see was her sixth sister Dugu Wenruo.
"What's your name?"
"Yan Qing."
"Xiao Yanqing, you have to listen well, my sister has a cold temper and a quiet personality, don't talk too much." Dugu Xiaoying took Yan Qing's hand and instructed outside the door, and then patted her head and scolded with a smile: "What I said is a bit redundant, you don't seem to be good at talking." ”
Xiaoying knocked on the door, and the person in the room said, "Please come in." ”
Xiaoying gently pushed the door, this room was very large but extremely empty, only a bed and a woman in green in a wheelchair, Xiaoying said softly: "Sixth sister, I brought a younger sister over and wanted her to learn from you." ”
Dugu Wenruo looked at Yan Qing beside Xiaoying for a while before asking Dugu Xiaoying, "What do you want me to teach her?" ”
"You can teach her, teach her."
"Greed." Dugu Wenruo smiled, got up and walked to Yan Qing's side, stretched out his hand and pinched Yan Qing's little face and asked softly: "Medical skills, charms, poisons, hidden weapons, mechanisms, which one do you want to learn?" ”
Yan Qing didn't speak, just looked at the beautiful woman in front of her, Dugu Xiaoying interjected on the side: "This sister is more afraid of life and doesn't like to talk......"
"I'm asking her."
Dugu Xiaoying hurriedly shut her mouth, she didn't want to displease this sister, Dugu Wen saw that Yan Qing never spoke, pinched Yan Qing's hand and flipped it dexterously, as if out of thin air a red pill was stuffed into Yan Qing's mouth, and the pill on her neck was swallowed with a slight index finger.
Her fingers were so fast that even Dugu Xiaoying couldn't stop it, and Xiaoying's startled voice unconsciously became a little heavier: "Sixth sister, what did you give her?" ”
"Go out and wait."
Xiaoying wanted to ask again, but Dugu Wenruo turned his head to look at her and squinted his eyes and smiled: "Go out and wait." ”
Xiaoying didn't dare to speak again, turned around and walked out of the room and didn't forget to close the door, she sat on the stone bench in front of the door and felt a little uneasy in her heart, but she didn't dare to disobey this sister's words and could only wait here, until noon the door was pushed open, and it was Dugu Wenruo who came out.
Dugu Xiaoying got up and was about to ask, but Dugu Wenruo said first: "I accept the person, you can go." ”
Dugu Xiaoying turned her head to look at the room, Yan Qing was lying quietly on the big bed, and couldn't help asking, "Is she asleep?" ”
"She's dead."
