"Are you so sure that we will die in vain when we go over?" Ning Xiaotang had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The black-robed young man hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "I admit that although your martial arts are indeed very powerful. However, Wanantong has been operating in Lecheng for decades, and its power is unimaginably huge. That secret underground palace is the base camp of Wan'antong, and it must be full of dangers and murderous opportunities. ”

Moreover, he is the richest man in Shuzhou, with a lot of money, and secretly I don't know how many martial arts masters he has recruited to work for him. No matter how high your martial arts are, you can defeat a hundred. But who knows how many people are in ambush in that secret underground palace? Once inside, there is definitely no going back!"

The black-robed young man was stubborn, and Ning Xiaotang didn't know what to do for a while.

He thought for a moment and said, "In this case, you can take us to see the mass grotto first." ”

For this request, the black-robed young man did not refuse, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to that mass grotto." Do you want to go now?"

Ning Xiaotang said: "Yes, let's leave now." ”

Then, he glanced at Shen Ning'er and Shen Yueyue beside him, thinking that the mass grotto was a place to hide corpses, and it didn't seem good to take the two of them together.

So, Ning Xiaotang said to the two: "Miss Ning'er, Yueyue, you stay here for the time being. ”

Shen Ning'er and Shen Yueyue both nodded, and the two of them were still somewhat resistant to the place where the corpse was hidden.

Since Shen Ning'er and her two siblings were allowed to stay, then in terms of safety, Ning Xiaotang naturally had to reconsider.

He looked around the small cottage and said, "Why don't you let those people who are hidden in the house come out together?"

The black-robed young man and the old man in green robe glanced at each other slightly.

Then, the old man in Tsing Yi said, "Wait a minute, I'll call them out." ”

Soon, those who were hiding in the house came out one by one.

Most of those people were children who had not even reached the age of fifteen.

Ning Xiaotang was puzzled: "They are?"

The black-robed youth explained: "They are all orphans of displaced people who have lost their loved ones, and they are helpless. So, we put them in this little cottage. If they are allowed to live in Lecheng, they will definitely be sent to Jishitang in the end. ”

Ning Xiaotang asked, "Are you Nine Fingers Gang just about these people?"

The black-robed young man said, "It's all here." ”

At this time, Tang Ziyan couldn't help but interject and said: "But in Lecheng, the Nine Fingers Gang that the people say is a very terrifying existence." How could it be that there are only these people? You're not lying, are you?"

The black-robed young man sneered: "The word Nine Fingers Gang was made by Naji Shitang, and they deliberately came out. ”

"When they found out that someone had deliberately mutilated the displaced children, they deliberately made up such a gang. Then it spread throughout Lecheng, wanting to make those displaced people feel scared and send the children to Jishitang. ”

Ning Xiaotang said: "Those children's little fingers, you cut them all by yourself?"

The black-robed young man said, "Yes, I did it alone." We are here, and I am the only one who is capable of doing this. ”

Su Miaoyun frowned, and said suspiciously: "You have such a plan to destroy Jishitang, with the power of Jishitang, they haven't troubled you?"

The black-robed young man said: "I am better at light work, and I have always been cautious in my actions. Every time I finish cutting, I will wait a long time before I start again. In addition, I am afraid that in the eyes of Jishitang, I am also doing them a favor by doing this. ”

Speaking of this, the black-robed young man was slightly silent for a while, then sighed and said, "I didn't expect that Jishitang would make up such an illusory gang as the Nine Fingers Gang. But I have no choice, if I don't cut off the little fingers of those children, they will all be sent to Jishitang sooner or later. I can only save one, count one. ”

Ning Xiaotang glanced at the black-robed young man's left hand and asked, "What's the matter with your left hand?"

The black-robed young man slowly raised his left hand, only to see that his left hand only had four fingers, and one little finger was missing.

He laughed at himself: "I cut off the little fingers of those homeless children, although the original intention was to save their lives, but it was also a kind of harm after all." Since I made them lose a finger, then I myself should also have one less. ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and their feelings were inexplicably complicated. Everyone didn't expect that this black-robed young man would cut off his little finger because of guilt.

The old man in Tsing Yi couldn't help but sigh and said to everyone: "Xiahou Qing, this kid, just like that, has a very stubborn temper. What he decided on his own, he couldn't persuade him to come back at all. I tried to persuade him, but he cut off his little finger. ”

"Let's go, you take us to the mass ghetto now. Ning Xiaotang said, with his six senses, he had confirmed that there was no one hiding in the entire small cottage.

And these people in front of them are not a threat to Shen Ning'er's two sisters and brothers, and the two of them should be safe when they stay here.

Besides, Ning Xiaotang also planned to let the Emei faction leave a few people here.

He glanced at a few people from the Emei faction, and said to Su Miaoyun: "Friends of Emei, just Fairy Su, you and I should go on a trip, and the others should stay here for the time being." ”

Su Miaoyun said: "Listen to the instructions of the seniors. ”

In Su Miaoyun's eyes, Ning Xiaotang was a hidden senior, and he naturally obeyed his words.

The girl surnamed Xiao opened her mouth upside down, as if she wanted to go with her.

But then, I heard Su Miaoyun say: "Wanfeng, Ziyan, and Tang Peng, you just stay here for the time being, and wait for us to come back." ”

Tang Ziyan said, "Yes, Master." ”

The girl surnamed Xiao could only say helplessly: "Yes, Master." ”

And the man surnamed Tang also said: "Yes, Senior Su." ”

Subsequently, Ning Xiaotang and Su Miaoyun, under the guidance of the black-robed young man Xia Houqing, performed light skills and quickly left the small cottage.

Xia Houqing took Ning Xiaotang and the two of them all the way to the direction where Lecheng was located.

However, five miles away from Lecheng, he turned to the northwest again.

On the horizon in that direction, there is a lush mountain.

After continuing to move forward for more than ten miles, the three of them entered the mountains and forests.

In the end, Xiahou Qing took Ning Xiaotang and Su Miaoyun to a hidden dense forest.

Xia Houqing took a breath, calmed his breath, and said, "Through the woods, it is a mass grotto." ”

Ning Xiaotang and Su Miaoyun were both calm and relaxed, and walking this distance was nothing to the two of them.

Ning Xiaotang nodded and said, "Let's go." ”

Not long after, the three of them walked through the woods, and a dark cave appeared on the rock wall dozens of feet away from the three of them.

Looking at the cave, Ning Xiaotang immediately frowned.

Yi Ning Xiaotang's six senses, although they were so far away, he still smelled an extremely faint smell of corpses.
