Chapter 20: The Flute Breaks
Tang Yanzheng's face was full of anger, and regardless of his pale face due to the suppression of toxicity in his body, he slapped the table with his hand, and a good pear blossom wood table was actually smashed by his palm.
"Second child, say!"
Tang Yanyi was so frightened that he trembled, he gritted his teeth and said, "Actually..."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Yanyi suddenly jumped up and ran towards the nearest window.
His martial arts are not weak, and light skills are the basic skills that Tang Sect disciples are best at, so he went extremely fast, and before everyone could react, he had already swept to the window.
But he's fast, and someone is even faster than him.
The crutches in Li Guyan's hand were a little on the ground, and the whole person swept over like a gust of wind, and he came first, rushing to the window before Tang Yanyi.
Tang Yanyi shouted, the cold light in his hand flashed, and a hidden weapon hit Li Guyan.
Since Li Guyan is known as the Iron Crutch Immortal, all his kung fu is on the pair of iron crutches in his hand, I saw that he gently drew an arc of the iron crutch in his hand, and to put it mildly, he blocked the hidden weapon.
Tang Yanyi failed to succeed in one blow, and the way out was blocked by Li Guyan again, and suddenly his body turned around, wanting to go to another window.
But Jade Xiaoyao was already waiting for him there.
Tang Yanyi roared angrily, and slapped his palm, and the palm was full of fishy winds, obviously hiding poison.
Jade reached out and passed under his palm, striking him on the wrist.
Hit the snake and hit seven inches, and all palm techniques are most afraid of being hit by the wrist, because the change of strength in the hand depends on the wrist, and if the wrist is hit, no matter how powerful the back move is, it will not be able to be displayed.
It was Tang Yanyi who didn't dare to let Yu Xiaoyao's palm hit solidly, and his hand changed into a peck halfway through to peck Yu Xiaoyao's wrist.
Yu Xiaoyao suddenly returned his palm, wrapped Tang Yanyi's hand, and vomited the strength in his hand, only to hear a click, Tang Yanyi's wrist was broken.
Tang Yanyi screamed in pain, and his figure retreated.
Yue Qingsong stepped forward and shouted, "You lie down for me." A pair of big hands like a fan were patting Tang Yanyi's back.
Tang Yanyi staggered two steps and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Bai Buping also took a step, and the folding fan in his hand slapped on several big points on Tang Yanyi's body, Tang Yanyi snorted, his legs weakened, and he fell to the ground.
Tang Yelin stayed quietly by Tang Yanzheng's side from beginning to end, and he didn't mean to do anything at all.
Tang Yanyi knelt on the ground, the corners of his mouth were bloodstained, and a pair of eyes stared at Yu Xiaoyao without blinking.
Tang Yanzheng's blood was surging, and his face was even whiter at the moment, Tang Yelin took out a pill from his arms and handed it to Tang Yanzheng, but he pushed it away.
"Second child, say!"
Tang Yanzheng repeated what he had just said.
Tang Yanyi gritted his teeth and looked like he couldn't speak.
Bai Buping shook the folding fan and said, "Second Master Tang, why do you have to do this? I know, you don't want to say it, but because the mastermind behind the scenes is in this room, are you afraid of being poisoned by him?"
Tang Yanyi's face suddenly changed, and he became extremely frightened.
"Alas. Tang Yelin sighed softly, "Second uncle, for so many years, your father has treated you well, so you just say it." ”
Tang Yanyi's face turned dead, he shook his head, and said to Yu Xiaoyao: "Yu Gongzi, I'm sorry..."
He was destined to say this sentence endlessly, because his eyes were already bulging.
The lifeless body fell to the floor with a heavy weight.
"There are still masters here!" Bai Buping exclaimed.
There was a loud "click", and Li Guyan had already walked out of the window.
Yu Xiaoyao approached Tang Yanyi's corpse, and was about to squat down to take a closer look, when a hand reached over and stopped him.
"How are you going to go?" Yue Qingsong asked in a deep voice.
Yu Xiaoyao said: "Naturally, let's see how he died." ”
Bai Buping sneered: "Is it to check the cause of death, or to destroy the corpse?"
After these few words, Li Guyan swept back from the window again.
"Old man?" Tang Yanzheng asked out loud.
Li Guyan shook his head, "Little Lao'er is really old, and he hasn't even seen the shadow of that person." ”
"I'm afraid it's the mastermind behind this matter. Tang Yelin said.
Bai Buping glanced at Yu Xiaoyao and said, "It may also be someone's killer." ”
Yu Xiaoyao sneered: "Mr. Bai has something to say, there is no need to swallow and insinuate. ”
Bai Buping said: "What else is there to say, Tang Yanyi said your name before he died, what else do you have to quibble." ”
Yue Qingsong also shouted: "Are you afraid that Second Master Tang will tell your secret, so you arranged for someone to lay out a killing move?!"
Yu Xiaoyao pointed to the corpse on the ground and said, "The two of you are blindly accusing, why don't you go and see how Second Master Tang died." ”
Li Guyan had already pulled out a silver needle from Tang Yanyi's chest, and the needle of the silver needle was jet black, obviously highly poisonous.
"This is?" Tang Yelin looked at the silver needle carefully, and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is the spring breeze rain needle." ”
"Spring breeze and rain, shadowless and invisible. Bai Buping said, "Isn't this the unique secret weapon of the Tang Sect?"
Tang Yanzheng's face became even more ugly.
"Yu Xiaoyao, there is still your inner response in the Tang Sect?!" Yue Qingsong asked loudly.
"Hahahahaha. Yu Xiaoyao laughed loudly, "It seems that no matter what, the two of you must put this pot on my head!"
"Ladies and gentlemen. Tang Yelin said quietly, "I already know who the master outside is. ”
"Who is it?" Yue Qingsong and Bai Buping asked in unison.
Tang Yelin said: "Among the Tang Sect, there are only a few people who can make such a realm with the spring breeze and rain needle. He pointed his finger at Tang Yanzheng and himself, "One is my father, and the other is me." ”
"Who is the third person?" Bai Buping asked.
This time, Chang Yu Xiaoyao spoke, and he said: "The third person is the traitor of the Tang Sect and my best friend, Tang Qi. ”
Without waiting for others to speak, Yu Xiaoyao said again: "It seems that this black cauldron must be carried by me." ”
Bai Buping pointed at Yu Xiaoyao and sneered: "Old man, the truth has been revealed now. Do you still believe him?"
Li Guyan leaned on crutches and said sonorously: "I believe in him." ”
Yue Qingsong shook his head and persuaded: "Old man, you can't be selfish, everything must be judged impartially, Tang Yanyi identified him before he died, and it was his best friend who killed people, this is what he said personally." Are you going to shield him?"
Li Guyan said: "Little Lao'er never shields anyone. However, I believe him. ”
Yue Qingsong sighed, as if he didn't understand why Li Guyan was so dead-eyed.
Yu Xiaoyao smiled bitterly to himself, he knew that the matter had come to this point, and he said that no matter how much he said, it would be useless, so he simply kept silent and watched coldly.
Tang Yelin said: "Everyone, it's useless to talk more, although my father's poison is chronic, but it can't be delayed for a long time, now we should think about how to get the antidote." ”
Bai Buping sneered: "If you want Yu to go and get the antidote, I don't know if it's the antidote yet." ”
Tang Yelin said: "But if you don't let him change the antidote, I'm afraid that Miss Qin won't change the medicine." ”
Yue Qingsong said: "Since we already know where the demon girl is, why bother so much, a few of us go together, are we afraid that we won't be able to hold the demon girl and find the antidote?"
Li Guyan said: "Can you think of it, why can't she think of it? Since she has reported her location, she must have a way to get out, let's go together, what if we startle the snake and can't get the antidote?"
"This..." Yue Qingsong was asked.
Tang Yelin muttered: "I have a plan, I don't know if it's feasible. ”
Tang Yanzheng endured the pain and said, "Lin'er, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
Tang Yelin said: "Since we want an antidote, Yu Gongzi wants to prove his innocence. It might as well be like this. ”
Yu Xiaoyao looked at Tang Yelin, and for the first time, he found that Tang Yelin's eyes were so sinister.
There are people in this world who believe in Buddhism, there are people who believe in the Tao, there are people who don't believe in anything, and there are people who believe in everything.
The majority of the common people fall into the last category.
In the mortal world, there will inevitably be all kinds of suffering, whether natural disasters or man-made disasters, even if there are no disasters, life is the most difficult thing.
So, either to have peace of mind, or to pray for a greater power to help them, to save them, or simply to catch a glimpse of light from the misery of life, people have created one god after another for one purpose or another, worshipping one idol after another.
Therefore, those who do business should worship the God of Wealth, those who go to the rivers and lakes should worship the second master of Guan, those who sail boats should worship the dragon king, the farmers who farm the land should worship the land lord, and the cooks who cook should stick the statue of the king of the stove.
And the woodcutter who chops wood, the hunter who hunts, and the mountain eats the mountain, naturally they have to worship the mountain god.
There are mountain temples everywhere in the world, some of them are famous far and near, and the natural incense is prosperous; some are far away in the mountains, and they are bound to be dilapidated and desolate.
The mountain temple in front of you is the kind of dilapidated and desolate.
I don't know who built this mountain temple, and I don't know when it started, I think there are countless people who have come to worship, but since the Tang Sect was rich and bought this back mountain from the government, it has gradually fallen into dilapidation.
I don't know where the gate of this temple has gone, the roof has collapsed in half, and the statue of the mountain god on the throne has also been dilapidated, and the jagged grass poles are exposed in the broken dry mud, and the original face has long been lost.
Yu walked into the temple with a smile, only to feel that this place that should be full of divine aura was so cold at the moment.
"Jade Prince. Su Qing turned out from behind the idol.
"Miss Sue. Jade said.
"Did you bring what I wanted?"
Yu Xiaoyao reached out and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Su Qing.
Su Qing didn't look at it, and directly put it into his sleeve.
"Where's the antidote?" asked Yu Yao.
Su Qing threw something over, Yu Xiaoyao reached out to catch it, opened his hand and saw that it was a pill.
"Just take it orally. Su Qing said.
"Why?" asked Yu Yao.
Su Qing's expression couldn't be seen clearly in the dark, but Yu Xiaoyao felt her smile.
"Yu Gongzi is so smart, how could he not guess. ”
"What did he promise you?" asked Yu Yao.
Su Qing said: "There is only this Heavenly Poison Pill." ”
Yu Xiaoyao asked, "That's all?"
"That's all. ”
"Is it really that heavy on you?"
"Lady Snow is more important to me than my life. ”
Yu Xiaoyao stopped talking, he looked at Su Qing silently.
Su Qing understood, "He didn't plan to let me leave like this, did he?"
Yu Xiaoyao nodded, "He wants me to kill you with my own hands." ”
Su Qing said: "Then do you want to do this?"
Yu Yaoyao said: "I don't know. ”
"You don't know?"
"He's got people I care about. ”
Su Qing smiled, "Then why don't you do it yet?"
There was a hint of relief in her laughter.
Jade Xiaoyao stretched out his hand, and he held something in his hand.
The bamboo flute.
Su Qing was silent. After a long time, she said, "It's just a worthless gadget, why do you keep it?"
Yu Xiaoyao said: "Maybe it's just because few people give me things." ”
Su Qing said: "But I can't teach you to play the flute." ”
Yu Xiaoyao said lightly: "But I really want to learn." ”
"There are a lot of people who can play the flute. ”
"But no one can blow your flute. Jade said.
Su Qing stretched out his hand and gently placed it on the flute.
"Then I'll play another song for you. ”
The distant sound of the flute sounded in the small temple of this barren mountain, which was obviously a crisp and ethereal flute, but under Su Qing's performance, it was as distant and sad as the sound of a flute.
Yu Xiaoyao clapped her hands lightly, beating for her.
Both of them seemed to have forgotten that they were in a small temple in a barren mountain, or perhaps, they didn't want to think about this sad thing at all.
After a song, the sound of the flute lingered freely over the small temple, lingering for a long time.
Su Qing held the flute in both hands, and suddenly there was a force in his hand, and with a click, the bamboo flute had been broken into two.
She gently threw the two broken bamboo flutes on the ground, as if they had been thrown away along with those memories.
"Let's do it. Su Qing said, "I owe you." ”
Yu Xiaoyao suddenly made a move, and his body was like a ghost, setting off a gust of wind in this desolate and terrifying little temple.
The wind blew Su Qing's hair and swept across his face.
The others were already behind Su Qing.
"Why?" asked Su Qing.
"People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Yu Xiaoyao said softly.
He leaned down, picked up the two severed bamboo flutes, cherished them into his arms, and then, turned around, and strode out of the mountain temple.
He took a few steps forward, and suddenly couldn't help but look back.
The moonlight shone on the statue of the mountain god, and he suddenly found that half of the face of the dilapidated statue of the mountain god was still intact.
The eye on the statue of the mountain god looked at him with a bright eye, as if he had seen through the joys and sorrows of this earthly world.
He returned to Tangjiabao and saw Tang Yelin and Li Guyan waiting for him at the door of the back door.
"Where's the antidote?" Tang Yelin asked.
Yu Xiaoyao reached out and threw the porcelain vase to him.
Bai Buping looked behind him and sneered, "Why didn't Yu Gongzi bring the body back?"
Yu Xiaoyao said lightly: "I'll let her go." ”
Bai Buping was stunned for a moment, his eyes shot at him like a sword, "Yu Gongzi doesn't want to prove his innocence?"
"Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid. Yu Xiaoyao said proudly, "Whether it's life or death, listen to it!"
