Volume 1 Mountain Taoist Temple Chapter 3 Betrayal

Looking at the green-robed man in the height, Ji Ning's scalp was numb, and goosebumps appeared on his arms.

With the help of the red incense candle, he could get a general view of the scene in this room, with stumps and severed arms, corpses and human skins, and blood-stained iron torture instruments hanging on the walls, and he could imagine what kind of torture the people here had experienced before.

"From the moment I walked into this alley, I smelled a lot of blood, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Ji Ning took a deep breath, looked at the bewitching man in the height, and said solemnly: "Please understand, I am just here to deliver a letter." ”

"Oh? Who do you deliver letters for? Jiang Chuan smiled, and did not rush forward to torture, but sat on the chair and ate the grapes leisurely.

Ji Ning raised the letter in his hand with a frown, and said solemnly: "Send a letter for my senior brother Li Hu, he owes you money, doesn't Master Jiang know?" ”

"Owe money?"

A trace of disdain flashed on Jiang Chuan's heavily makeup face, and he said with a hint of mockery:

"Your senior brother does owe me a lot, but he doesn't pay it back with money, but you."

"You talk nonsense!"

Ji Ning's face turned pale, his hand holding the firewood knife suddenly clenched, gritted his teeth and said, "My senior brother is very good to me, it can't hurt me!" ”

"Anyway, the letter has been delivered, I am going back to the Taoist Temple now, please let the people outside get out of the way!"

"You can't go anywhere!"

Jiang Chuan's voice suddenly became sharp, he stood up from the chair suddenly, held the leather whip, and said sharply: "Silly boy, you don't look at what is in the letter, if it's not a silver ticket!" ”

"Impossible!"

"Then you can take it apart and take a look."

Jiang Chuan stared at Ji Ning, his gaze gradually became crazy, like a bachelor who had not opened a meat restaurant for many years was thrown into a brothel, licked his lips and said:

"Open it and take a look, I'll let you die!"

Ji Ning's face was pale, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally twisted his fingers and completely opened the envelope.

Sure enough, there was no silver ticket inside, only a blank piece of paper.

It is densely packed, and it seems to be Li Hu's self-description.

Ji Ning's lips trembled as if he had been struck by lightning, he held the letter up in front of him and read it silently:

"I'm sorry, junior brother."

"Since I was a child, I grew up in a large family, my father and mother were slaves, the old man of that family had a very bad temper, he often whipped people, and the young master was also very stubborn, so the big and small injuries on my body were all left at that time."

"Four years ago, I secretly ran out of that house, and on a calm night, I lit the firewood house with a fire, rode a horse, and fled without sleep for three days, so that I was not caught up by the officers and soldiers, but my parents were not so lucky, they were both captured and beaten to death by the master."

"I thought about going back to take revenge, but the power of that family is too strong, and it is a hundred-year-old family beyond the ordinary, so I have a reason to become a cultivator, and I must take revenge."

"But I resent, the heavens are unfair!"

"Why do I practice so hard, but I always can't take the last step, I hate that the fate of people is so different, why is the stubborn young master born to stand in the clouds, you, a waste who can't practice, can also have an elder master, and I obviously have the opportunity to practice, but my parents are slaves!"

"I'm not reconciled, I need more spirit stones, but you won't hand them over, so I sold you to Jiang Chuan."

"Writing this, I'm actually a little sad, maybe I really think of you as a brother, but I can't help it, Jiang Chuan gave me a spirit stone, you must die."

"But I told him, start lightly, you don't have to endure too much torture, I have also arranged everything on the master's side, they can't find anything, after today, I should be able to break through and become a real cultivator, and when I get revenge, I will set up a monument for you on the top of Xiushan."

Syllable!

Seeing this, Ji Ning angrily threw the letter paper on the ground, his face was pale, his body was trembling, and he was already on the verge of losing control.

When reading this letter, he could even imagine how calm Li Hu's expression would be.

Senior brother betrayed him like this!

"Now you believe it?"

Jiang Chuan covered his mouth and smiled, very satisfied with Ji Ning's reaction, he picked up the leather whip in his hand, walked down from the high platform slowly, and said: "I told you a long time ago that you are just an item he used to pay off his debts, and now you belong to me." ”

"Don't come here!"

Ji Ning looked crazy, and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes:

"One step further and I'll kill you!"

"I'm so scared."

"Didn't you notice that the bones in your body are getting softer and softer, this is the ecstasy incense I specially prepared for you, Li Hu specially instructed me, your skills are very good, I am a weak man, how dare I be careless?"

"You mean!"

Ji Ning's face was ugly, and he slowly collapsed on the ground, panting heavily, and it could be seen that he had completely lost his strength.

Now he seems to be a lamb to the slaughter, and Jiang Chuan is the executioner.

"The antidote is here, do you want to eat it?"

Jiang Chuan smiled, took a small porcelain bottle in front of Ji Ning, and then threw it to the ground at random, the pill was stained with blood and shattered to the ground.

"Swallow it raw, skin it alive, or I'll be lucky to you once."

"Little handsome guy, which one do you want to try first?"

"I don't choose anythingβ€”β€”!"

Just when Jiang Chuan was confident and thought that he had eaten Ji Ning, Ji Ning, who was still weak just now, opened his eyes suddenly, roared and pulled out the firewood knife behind him, and slashed it with one sword, the force was so great, it was like chopping firewood in the forest.

"Ahh

The bewitching man lost his face and subconsciously dodged some, but he was still slashed in the shoulder with a knife, leaving a deep blood mark.

"Damn, this knife is too blunt!"

Ji Ning gritted his teeth, without any hesitation, and stabbed out of the crack in the door with his backhand, so the strong man who had just closed the door let out a muffled snort.

Boom!

Then, Ji Ning kicked the door open, knocked the man aside, and fled quickly to the center of the courtyard, the whole action was smooth and did not drag at all.

"I'm getting dizzy!"

Ji Ning's face was pale, his vision was blurred, and his whole person was dizzy.

In fact, as soon as he entered the house, he was wary of the ecstasy incense and deliberately slowed down his breathing.

He could smell the smell of blood in the air, and naturally he could smell the fragrance.

And when he saw the letter written to him by Li Hu, he instantly thought of countermeasures, and he was panicked on the surface, but in fact, he secretly bit the tip of his tongue to stay awake, just to confuse, and when Jiang Chuan relaxed his carelessness, he would give him a fatal blow!

Although it is a pity that he could not kill the eunuch with a single sword, he fortunately escaped, but where to go now?

Ji Ning's body staggered, barely keeping him awake.

It was far from the main entrance of the gambling house, and there were many courtyards, and it was impossible for him to escape from the main road in his current state, just over the wall, but the wall was too high.

"That's right, dog cage!"

In an instant, Ji Ning's dizzy gaze slowly gathered on the dog cage in the corner.

"Chase me!"

At this moment, in the room behind, Jiang Chuan's sharp explosion sounded again, and a brilliant firework rose from the courtyard and exploded violently.

Then in the gambling house in the front yard, countless footsteps were immediately heard.

"I can only try!"

Ji Ning gritted his teeth and struggled to climb onto the dog cage by the wall.

Although even if he stepped on this cage, there was still a certain distance from the wall, but at this juncture, he could only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.

And just when Ji Ning stood firm and was about to jump, the dog cage under his feet suddenly stretched out a hand!

"Something!"

Ji Ning clenched the tip of his tongue, suddenly regained some consciousness, looked down at him, and then his heart skipped a beat.

I saw that it was not a dog in the cage, but a person!

At his feet, there was a man with a cloak of hair, half of his body gone, and even one of his eyes gouged out, stretched out his withered hand with all his strength, and grabbed his ankle tightly.

"I can't get out, I'm locked up here, how can you escape!"

The man opened his mouth and screamed hoarsely, and he had lost even his tongue, and he had become a completely deformed person, and he could only roar in his heart.

Click!

Ji Ning gritted his teeth, directly inserted a firewood knife into the man's wrist, and nailed it to the cage, so the force under his feet suddenly loosened.

At the same time, those guards also rushed into the courtyard with great vigour.

"He's there, chase after him!"

"Fight!"

Ji Ning gritted his teeth, bent his knees, and jumped up with all his strength, and only then did his hands grasp the edge of the high wall.

But he didn't have the strength to climb the wall with his two arms!

And at this moment, Jiang Chuan, who was almost beheaded by Ji Ning, also took out his crossbow arrows and roared viciously: "I will cut you with a thousand knives!" ”

"Dead shemale, it's disgusting!"

Ji Ning's face turned red, stepped on the handle of the knife, and jumped out of the wall with all his might, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

Inside the wall, all the guards saw this, and they all climbed onto the dog cage and tried to jump off the wall to chase after them, but found that no matter how they jumped, they were far behind.

"Don't chase me yet!"

Seeing this, Jiang Chuan screamed like crazy, and he didn't even care about the injury, even if he followed everyone and chased him out of the main courtyard.
