Chapter 51: Undercurrent (7)
Unexpectedly, Liu Tiandonggao's move really blindfolded the masked man. I heard him suddenly let out three whistles, and then many torches suddenly appeared from the corners that had been shrouded in darkness, and the whole circular corridor was illuminated.
Sure enough, as Liu Tiandong expected, there were more than a dozen black-clothed people with swords in ambush in the corridor, and under two of the torches, Liu Tiandong also saw Murong Hui and He Shan, the two were not tied by ropes, but they stood there motionless, but Murong Hui stared at Liu Tiandong's side, her expression was stiff, but from her eyes, she seemed to be very anxious in her heart, as if she had something to say, but she couldn't speak. And Heshan is similar to Murong Hui, except that his eyes are more confused, as if he is a lost lamb.
"Gongsun Master, you can see it, these two people are very good and have not been harmed in any way, but for the convenience of you and me to talk, I ordered my subordinates to seal a few acupuncture points of the two of them. The Masked Man explained cautiously.
"So that's the case, it seems that the plots in martial arts novels are not all lies. Liu Tiandong was surprised, he thought in his heart, forcibly let himself not move, continued to pretend to be a martial arts celebrity, and snorted coldly in his nose, and shook a sentence: "The small skill of carving insects, the method of Xiaoxiao is nothing more than trying to threaten me with these two as hostages, and what he said is so high-sounding." The head of this family doesn't care about you anymore, since you sincerely cooperate with me, then solve their acupoints first, and let them come!"
Looking at the mask man again, he has no momentum at the beginning, and he didn't even hesitate about Liu Tiandong's request before replying: "Okay, good, completely listen to the arrangement of the head of Gongsun, and release people in the future." Then he immediately ordered his men to release them.
"Wait a minute!" At this moment, just when Liu Tiandong was secretly happy in his heart, everything was so smooth and in his control, there was actually a branch in the middle of the road, and someone came out to stop it.
This voice seemed to be somewhat familiar to Liu Tiandong, and he immediately looked over in response, only to see a person appear next to Murong Hui.
"It turned out to be him, the fat shopkeeper, and it was he who broke my good deeds. ”
"Lord Ge Xiang, what do you mean? Could it be ......" The mask man didn't expect that his subordinates would question his decision at this time, but the fat shopkeeper seemed to have some weight in their group, and the mask man was not angry, you must know that in front of Liu Tiandong and other outsiders, the fat shopkeeper's behavior is actually very bad for giving him face as a boss, if he is replaced by someone else, he is likely to be punished, at least he will be reprimanded, but the mask man gave the fat shopkeeper a chance to express himself.
"Hall Master, don't blame the offense, just because this matter is very important, it is not clear whether this person is the person the hall owner is looking for, if he cheats from it, ruins the hall master's plan, and then provokes the three guys downstairs to trouble. The fat shopkeeper said to the masked man.
"Eh, Lord Ge Xiang must not be rude, do you question my judgment? Who else could this not be the head of Gongsun?" the masked man questioned.
The fat shopkeeper saluted again and said: "Hall Master, do you have the courage to ask if you have judged his identity just by virtue of this person's appearance? But I don't know that there are many wonders in the world, and there is no shortage of people with similar appearances, right? What kind of person is Gongsun Ziyang, who took the position of the head of the Momen at a young age, with 3,000 disciples, and is famous in the martial arts. As far as I know, when Gongsun entered the 100,000 Mountains three years ago, he was close to the age of not being confused, and now he should be one in forty, right? But is this person ...... in front of the hall master" The fat shopkeeper said deliberately prolonged his tone, throwing the question to the masked man, and at the same time he also glanced at Liu Tiandong with his small eyes.
"Well, Lord Ge Xiang is still too worried, I have had a friendship with Brother Gongsun for many years, is this Brother Gongsun the deity how can I not recognize it? You just said that the master of the hall will not pay attention to it, and he will not retreat quickly, unless it is ......" The mask man showed dissatisfaction in his attitude, but he seemed to have something in his words, this person was too cunning, and he must have begun to be suspicious, so he took the opportunity to push the boat down the river and ask the fat shopkeeper to come up with evidence to expose Liu Tiandong, but on the surface, he was righteous and awe-inspiring, and he was a "drama spirit" through and through.
"Hall Master, although what Lord Ge Xiang said sounds a little rude, it is indeed for the benefit of the hall, this person is unknown, and there are many doubts that cannot be left unchecked, so please think twice!" At this time, another older person said to the masked man.
As soon as he spoke, the remaining dozen or so black-clothed people also clasped their fists and saluted in unison: "Please think twice, hall master!" The situation instantly became extremely unfavorable for Liu Tiandong.
And the mask man didn't stop at this time, but turned to look at Liu Tiandong, through the mask Liu Tiandong could guess that his eyes must be dripping and rolling at the moment, of course, Liu Tiandong must not be confused because of the change in the situation, he must and immediately do something.
Even Liu Tiandong had to admire that he always had a flash of inspiration at a critical moment and turned the tide of the battle, because at this critical juncture, he used a killer move.
"Hmph, surnamed Su, this is your so-called elite, it's really a rabble, no wonder it's hard to make a big deal!" Liu Tiandong said lightly to the masked man in a very disdainful tone.
When the masked man heard this, he laughed dryly, and then replied still very respectfully: "Gongsun is very right in his reprimand, he is incompetent and did not control his subordinates, and please forgive me, Su will never doubt the identity of the head with his personality, but he will not ...... it."
"You don't have to pretend, I'm not interested in caring about those things in your sect, since you are so curious, I can't help but tell you and wait, there are indeed magic secrets in the Great Witch Tomb, after more than three years of cultivation, and with the pills I obtained, not only is the skill more sophisticated, but even the body and face have begun to regain their youth, whether you guys believe it or not, that's it." In addition, ......" Liu Tiandong said coldly with a straight face, while taking out the small porcelain bottle from his arms, throwing his hand at the mask man, all of this seems to be a casual move that outsiders don't care about, but in fact, it is the last trick that can be used for Liu Tiandong, if the mask man and his subordinates can't be completely suppressed this time, I'm afraid the three of them will have a lot of suffering.
Liu Tiandong didn't show how he was worried about the calculation in his heart, and then looked at the masked man, he didn't move, just raised his one arm and stretched out two fingers, and caught the small porcelain bottle thrown by Liu Tiandong with a slight clip, and reacted so quickly that he did it almost in the blink of an eye. However, even faster, he let out an almost gaffe exclamation, completely drowning out the chic just now.
"Ahh......h Could it really be ...... I, I, Su Mingshan isn't dreaming, is he?" the masked man held the small porcelain vase in front of his eyes, his voice trembled and exclaimed, he couldn't express the whole sentence clearly, which showed that Liu Tiandong's plan worked.
"Hmph, you don't need to be so excited, it's true that the thing in your hand is the pill bottle of Tianluo Dan. Liu Tiandong added another sentence to the already crazy masked man.
"Yes, yes, it's Tian Luodan, I know this little bottle...... Wait, you, no, what did you just say?"
