"Smack!"

In the dungeon, Liao Chuan and Liao Hai took turns whipping, accompanied by a crisp sound, leaving shocking whip marks on Li Haitang's body.

At this moment, Li Haitang's hands and feet were tied with hemp rope, and his body was hung high. After a whipping, the clothes on his body were already in tatters, and his looming body was covered with scars, his skin was open and fleshy, and he was dripping with blood, coupled with his dying and sad appearance, it was unbearable to look at directly.

Deng Quan, who was expressionless, sat quietly aside, staring indifferently at the whipped and twitching Li Haitang. From time to time, he turned his gaze to Tang Xuan, who was hanging beside Li Haitang, who was also scarred, and a terrifying cold light flashed in his eyes.

"I'll ask you again. Deng Quan's voice suddenly sounded, "Who sent you here, what is the collusion between Longxiang Mountain and the Valley of Despair?"

However, in the face of Deng Quan's aggressive questioning, neither Tang Xuan nor Li Haitang heard from him.

Looking at the half-conscious two, Deng Quan's brows furrowed slightly, and then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the bucket in the corner. Liao Chuan understood, quickly stepped forward, and one of them rewarded them with a scoop of cold water, which made Tang Xuan's master and apprentice suddenly sober up a little.

"Say it quickly, so as not to suffer any more flesh and skin!" Liao Hai threatened viciously.

Deng Quan said coldly: "No matter how hard you dare to be hard-mouthed, I will gouge out your eyes, cut off your ears, cut off your tongues, and let you taste the taste of life is worse than death." ”

"Huh...... Ahem......"

Tang Xuan laughed miserably and said contemptuously: "The world says that we are heretical demons, but in fact, you are the real femme fatale. What kind of righteous and righteous people are simply in vain, and they are talking nonsense!"

"Smack!"

Before the words fell, Liao Chuan slapped Tang Xuan in the face and slammed it into his face, causing a stream of blood to overflow from his mouth and nose again.

"Eighth master, they are dead ducks with hard mouths, what should we do?"

"Keep fighting!" Deng Quan said indifferently, "Let's see if it's your fists or their mouths!"

"Yes......"

"Deng Baye, slow down!"

Without waiting for the Liao brothers to receive their orders, an anxious cry suddenly came from outside the dungeon. Immediately afterwards, Tang Lin and Tang Xiu hurried over under the guidance of Luo Qi.

Seeing this, Deng Quan raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "The two of you are distinguished guests in the mansion, and the lord of the mansion has explained that you have to serve well." This place is dirty and pickled, lest you snub the guests, please go back to your room to rest!"

"Dare to ask Deng Baye's subordinates to show mercy. Tang Xiao looked at Tang Xuan and the others with bitter eyes, and then turned to Deng Quan and said, "The two of us have our lives with us, and we want to bring Tang Xuan back to Shuzhong to ask for the guilt." If you beat him out of shape, I'm just afraid of ...... We couldn't make a deal when we got back. ”

"This ......" Hearing this, Deng Quan couldn't help but hesitate and hesitated, "I understand what the two of you mean, but I also act according to orders, and I dare not disobey them." The lord of the mansion personally ordered to ask about the relationship between Longxiang Mountain and the Valley of Despair. At the moment, these two would rather die than say anything, and they are also very embarrassed at the bottom. ”

"We have consulted the Lord of Luo Mansion on this matter, and we will never make it difficult for Deng Baye. Tang Xiu hurriedly said, "The Lord of the Luo Mansion means that he is willing to hand over Tang Xuan to us for disposal. You see......"

Deng Quan's eyebrows furrowed, and he turned his suspicious gaze to Luo Qi, but seeing Luo Qi nodding silently and lightly, his heart instantly understood, and he said happily: "Since the mansion master agrees, the two of you will take Tang Xuan away!"

"Deng Baye understands righteousness and admires it!"

"Wait!"

Just when Tang Xuan and the others wanted to untie Tang Xuan, Tang Xuan suddenly had a fierce look in his eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "If you want to leave, take me with you, otherwise...... I'd rather bite my tongue and kill myself than go back to Tangmen with you. ”

"Presumptuous!" Tang Xiao shouted angrily, "Tang Xuan, you are already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect yourself, how can you meddle with other people's affairs?"

"I'm not leaving!" Tang Xuan's facial features were hideous, he twisted his body desperately, dodged Tang Xiu's hands, and said stiffly, "If I can't take Begonia away with me, I'd rather die than go back with you." If you can save Begonia, not only will I go back with you, but I will also take the initiative to confess my guilt in front of Tang Yuan and wash away your grievances for the two of you. How?"

Seemingly attracted by Tang Xuan's conditions, Tang Xiao and Tang Xiu couldn't help but glance at each other, and there was a hint of hesitation in their eyes.

After hesitating again and again, Tang Lin looked at Deng Quan with an embarrassed face, and said stubbornly: "Eighth Master Deng, you ...... this matter."

"No!" Deng Quan immediately made a decision and refused categorically, "Li Haitang secretly released a cold arrow and almost shot the mansion master, the crime is unforgivable, he must stay!"

"If the begonia dies, the teacher will never live alone. Tang Xuan did not back down and insisted on going his own way.

"What does it matter to me if you die or not?" Deng Quan sneered, "In short, no one wants to take Li Haitang away!"

"This ......" Tang Xiu was in a dilemma, and pleaded hesitantly, "Eighth Master Deng, Li Haitang deserves to die if he puts a cold arrow, but fortunately he hasn't made a big mistake yet." You see...... Can you give the old man some thin noodles and let us take him away......"

As for this, seeing that Deng Quan was still unmoved, Tang Xiu hurriedly added: "The old man guarantees the head of the Xiang, after returning to the Tang Gate, we will severely punish Li Haitang and give a satisfactory explanation to the lord of Luofu." How?"

"That's not going to work......"

"Eighth Master!" Without waiting for Deng Quan to refute it, Luo Qi, who had not said a word, suddenly spoke, "The so-called 'good people do it to the end, send the Buddha to the west'." Thinking that the Tang landlord was not afraid of life and death, and saved the life of the mansion owner under Li Haitang's arrow, why don't you open the net and hand over their master and apprentice to the Tang Sect together?"

Although Luo Qi's status in the Xianwang Mansion is not as good as Deng Quan, his identity is a member of the Luo family after all, and he is old and quite old, so although Deng Quan is one of the eight heroes, he does not dare to be arrogant in front of Luo Qi.

"Old Luo, if I let Li Haitang go privately, in case the lord of the mansion asks......"

"Early tomorrow morning, the two of us will explain it to the Lord of Luofu in person. Tang Xiao swore and promised, "Never let Deng Baye be embarrassed." ”

"This ......"

Deng Quan's face was embarrassed, he hesitated again and again, and finally reluctantly relented under Luo Qi's repeated persuasion: "Since this is the case, then ...... Let's go for the two of you!"

"There are many righteous people in the palace of Su Wenxian, and Deng Baye is worthy of being the hero of the heroes. Tang Xiu was overjoyed, and praised again and again, "After the old man goes back, he will definitely show everything to the governor, and always remember the generosity and kindness of the lord of Luo's mansion!"

"The two of us were able to escape a catastrophe and save an old life, all thanks to the sacrifice of the lives of the lord of Luofu and the heroes. This kindness and this feeling, the old man is unforgettable!" Tang Lin arched his hand.

After a few words of greeting, with the help of Liao Chuan and Liao Hai, Tang Lin and Tang Xiu took Tang Xuan's master and apprentice away from the dungeon, and only Deng Quan and Luo Qi were left in the bloody dungeon.

"Deng Baye, hard work!"

"Luo Lao worked hard! tonight...... How many disciples have been killed or wounded?"

"Seventeen dead, nine seriously wounded, and lightly wounded...... There are no less than 100 people. ”

"Alas!" Hearing this, Deng Quan couldn't help but let out a bitter sigh.

"Eighth Master doesn't have to be sad, these disciples won't die or be injured in vain. The lord of the mansion took advantage of the situation, pushed the boat down the river, and exchanged today's sacrifice for greater returns. I believe that one day...... We can keep the clouds open and see the moon. ”

"I hope so. ”

"If there is nothing else to do, the old man will go and get busy first. ”

"Luo Lao, please!"

After that, Deng Quan and Luo Qi glanced at each other, and a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

......

Late at night, in the study.

A light like a bean, hazy and dim, reflecting Luo Tianjin's tired and tired face, showing a little haggard.

"Dad, the wound on your face...... Isn't it out of the way?"

Luo Hongxuan's eyes were full of worry, and he personally poured a cup of hot tea for Luo Tianjin, and carefully sent it to the front of the case.

"No problem!"

Luo Tianjin's fingers gently rubbed the scars on his face, and said with a wry smile: "I really didn't expect that I had been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and I was almost killed by an unknown junior tonight. ”

"Li Haitang's archery skills are outstanding, and he has won Tang Xuan's true biography. ”

"In the rivers and lakes, there are many talents. Luo Tianjin chuckled, "I believe that it won't be long before this river and lake no longer belongs to us, but becomes the world of you young people." The afterlife is terrible, the afterlife is terrible!"

Luo Tianjin's words seem to be open-minded, but in fact, there is a lot of bitterness and helplessness.

"Dad, your face ...... It doesn't look good. Do you want me to call Lang Zhong to ......?"

"Don't bother! Yan Wuji, Huang Yangming are all peerless masters, and I don't dare to slack off in the slightest when fighting with the two of them, so the loss of internal strength is huge. Luo Tianjin picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said indifferently, "Xuan'er, don't worry, Dad is just a little tired." Wait for me to rest for two days, and I will be all right. ”

Hearing this, Luo Hongxuan's hanging heart quietly landed, and then turned his gaze to Liu Xunyi, who was waiting on the side, and said: "Lord Liumen, fortunately, you returned in time with Mei Zichuan, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." ”

"I didn't expect to encounter such a big thing when I came back. Liu Xunyi said in a condensed voice, "I just don't know Tang Xuan...... What is sacred?"

"He is the eldest brother of Tang Yuan, the head of the Tang Gate, and he was originally the owner of the secret weapon room of the Tang Gate in Shuzhong, and later because of the dispute between the chief managers, he turned against the Tang Yuan brothers, and then left the Tang Gate and joined Longxiang Mountain, and now he is one of the four protectors of Longxiang Mountain. Luo Hongxuan explained, "As for Tang Lin and Tang Xiu, they made a special trip to arrest him and go back to ask him for the crime. ”

"Ask the guilt?" Liu Xunyi thought about it for a while, and then figured out the reason, and said clearly, "I think that the 'Heavenly Maiden Weaving Clothes' used by the Mongols when they came to Chenzhou was not leaked by Tang Sect disciples, but by Tang Xuan. ”

"It's a little bit thorough, but it also saves me a lot of lip and tongue. Luo Tianjin smiled slightly, and then told Liu Xunyi and Luo Hongxuan, "It has been confirmed tonight that Longxiangshan and the Mongols are secretly colluding and acting in cahoots, so you should be more careful when you act outside in the future." ”

"Noted down. ”

"Xuan'er, pass on my order, no one is allowed to spread the news of tonight, so as not to spread rumors. At this juncture, I don't want to be too public, and I don't want outsiders to see our jokes. ”

"Yes. Luo Hongxuan gave up his hand and said, "There is one more thing that makes me puzzled. Why did the Longxiang Mountain and the Mongols save the people of the Valley of Desperate Love? Could it be...... The Valley of Despair is also the same as them?"

"It's possible. Luo Tianjin's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice, "But there is another possibility, the Mongols deliberately take this opportunity to win over the Valley of Despair." As for Long Xiangshan, he was probably asked by Yan Wuji to help him. ”

Liu Xunyi's heart moved, and he subconsciously answered: "It is also possible that Yan Wuji was found by Long Xiangshan to help him." ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Luo Tianjin frowned and said thoughtfully, "What do you mean...... It is not the Mongols who have anything to do with the Valley of Despair, but ...... Dragon Elephant Mountain?"

"I don't dare to assert, it's just speculation. ”

I don't know why? Liu Xunyi's expression at this time looked a little hesitant.

Facing Liu Xunyi, who was stumbling and wanting to speak, Luo Tianjin couldn't help but move his eyes, and then ordered without squinting: "Xuan'er, go down and pass on your life!"

"Yes. ”

Facing the mysterious two, although Luo Hongxuan was confused, he didn't ask more, turned around and left the study.

"Xunyi, now you can tell me the 'reply' of the ruthless valley master, 1510. ”

......
