The head of the house is quite spacious, but there are black cloths hanging everywhere inside, even the moonlight outside the window is blocked, and only a few candles illuminate the corner, which looks a little weird.

Steward Lu was not the slightest surprised, obviously used to it, and walked into the inner room, where a black curtain was also hung on a large bed, and a thin figure could only be faintly seen through the candlelight.

"The head of the house."

Steward Lu bowed.

The thin figure behind the curtain spoke, and his voice was hoarse and terrifying:

"Did the third child find it?"

Steward Lu bowed his head and replied: "I have sent people to search all over the three cities and twelve towns, but I still haven't been able to find any trace of the third master." ”

"What?"

The hoarse voice sounded again, with a touch of anger.

Steward Lu hurriedly said, "But I found some clues in Yunling Town. ”

At that moment, he told the clues detected by the black-clothed messenger, including Pei Daoyu and Qin Geng.

After listening to his words, there was silence behind the black curtain for a moment, and finally said:

"Let the fifth and fourth children go on a trip, Chang Chunzi is a member of my Chang family after all, no matter how angry he is, he should be taught a lesson by my Chang family, and it is not the turn of others."

"Yes."

Steward Lu gave up his hand, hesitated, and asked in a low voice:

"The head of the family, the husbands and fathers of those nuns came to the door to cry again, and I persuaded them to leave."

The thin figure behind the curtain said lightly: "Send someone to comfort me tomorrow, after all, they are all the people of my Chang family." ”

"Yes! The head of the family, according to your orders, yesterday I arrested two more female cultivators with earth spirit roots, both of whom were from outside the town and would not be noticed. ”

"Well, it will take a month for me to absorb Yuan Yin and Divine Consciousness once to fully digest it, and I will send another one over at this time next month."

"Yes, the villain is retiring."

Steward Lu exited the room, walked out of the courtyard of the head of the house, and walked narrower and narrower, entered a forest, passed a hidden magic circle, and an iron gate appeared in front of him.

took out the key and opened the door to enter, but he had already come to the underground of the Chang Family Immortal Mansion.

After walking down the dark ladder for a while, there was a burst of women's cries ahead.

Steward Lu walked over, and a dungeon appeared in front of him.

The cells are divided into three rooms, all of which can accommodate dozens of people.

What was shocking was that there were more than a dozen nuns in these three cells.

Most of these nuns wore ordinary dresses or robes, and were obviously not prostitutes, but women of good families.

At this moment, some of these nuns were sobbing quietly, some of them were blind, their hair was scattered, and they all had scars from the whipping.

Steward Lu had long been accustomed to it, so he walked straight up to a guard and asked calmly:

"These women aren't making trouble anymore, are they?"

The guard replied respectfully, "As you commanded, those who dared to make noise were greeted with the Piercing Whip, and now it is much quieter. ”

The stabbing whip is a special torture instrument for interrogating monks, and there are barbs on the whip, which can not only pierce the body to cause external injuries, but also whip the divine sense, making the monk feel painful.

However, this kind of torture instrument was so cruel that it was banned in the land of Dongxiu a hundred years ago.

It's just that I didn't expect to reappear in the secret dungeon of the Chang family.

Steward Lu said coldly: "The exercises practiced by the family master need to attract a female cultivator Yuan Yin and Divine Consciousness every month, you should pay attention to the severity of your actions, and don't hurt their Divine Sense." ”

"Yes!"

The guard bowed his hand, hesitated, and said:

"Steward Lu, the female cultivator we caught yesterday, we gave her a killing whip as usual, everyone else cried, but she didn't have the slightest pain, I'm afraid it's a little weird."

"Oh, which one?" Steward Lu was also a little surprised.

The ancient torture instrument of the Divine Piercing Whip is extremely cruel, although it will not seriously hurt the victim, but it will directly stab the divine sense, the light ones will wail and convulse, and the heavy ones will lose their spirits.

There was no reaction to this stabbing whip, but it was the first time that Steward Lu had heard of it.

"That's it."

The guard pointed to a cell where more than a dozen nuns were lying limp on the floor, and only one was sitting cross-legged, facing the wall.

She was wearing a plain white robe, her figure was straight, her long hair combed into a single ponytail fell to her waist, and although there were blood stains on her body, her whole person had a straight and neat temperament.

Steward Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, "The one in Yunling Town?" ”

"Yes, that's her."

"Call her over, I'll ask her something."

"Yes."

The guard agreed, and shouted at the nun:

"Hey, sit on that, come over to me!"

But she turned a deaf ear and still sat cross-legged, as if she was cultivating.

Steward Lu smiled: "You can still cultivate?" This nun is kind of interesting. ”

The guard couldn't hold back his face, picked up the stabbing whip, poured spiritual power into it, and the whip body was like a spiritual snake, drilled through the fence of the cell, and slapped on the female cultivator's body with a snap.

The barbs on the whip's body suddenly pierced into the flesh, bringing up a puddle of blood.

But the nun remained motionless, as if she had no pain.

The guard was furious, his arm waved, and the stabbing whip continued to whip the nun's body, and a little blood soon appeared on the plain white robe, but the slender back was still straight.

"Alright."

Steward Lu spoke, and the guard had to stop, and Steward Lu smiled and said to the female monk:

"This fellow Daoist, I heard that you are from Yunling Town?"

The female cultivator still didn't move, and Steward Lu continued: "Yunling Town is not big, and there are only a handful of Dan masters above the third order, I don't know if you have heard of a third-order Dan master of Qin, called Qin Cultivator." ”

Hearing this name, the female cultivator who was still under the stabbing whip finally made a move.

She turned her head and showed a heroic face, her facial features were not delicate, but she had a sunny temperament.

An orchid was embroidered on her left shoulder, and with that heroic face, it made people's hearts sway.

Seeing the female cultivator's reaction, Steward Lu's eyes lit up: "Do you know him?" ”

The woman shook her head, turned her head and continued to face the wall, cultivating cross-legged.

"This slut is so rude!"

The guard was about to beat her with a whip again, and Steward Lu said, "Okay, I just killed one a few days ago, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet!" ”

"Steward Lu is angry, we will pay attention to proportion."

The guards were terrified and did not dare to fight again.

Steward Lu took a deep look at the back of the female cultivator, and finally turned to leave.

The guards returned to their posts, and the deep dungeon was finally quiet, except for the occasional sobbing of women, which were soon reprimanded by the guards.

In the cell, the handsome nun opened her eyes, and an orchid-like smile appeared on her bloodstained and stained face.

"Qin Daoyou, is you already a third-order Dan Master? That's nice. ”

Two days later.

Yunling Town.

Choi Fung Street.

On the gate of a Spirit Vein Immortal Mansion hung a brand-new plaque with three big characters written on it-

Qinhe Garden.

This is the name that Qin Gengqian gave to his new home.

At this time, the Qinhe Garden was full of guests.

Qin Gengyun's former colleagues in Lingdanfang, the neighbors of Narrow Rain Lane, and the "sisters" who Qiu Zhihe met every day when he bought vegetables gathered together today to celebrate the housewarming of Qin Gengqian and his wife.
