Chapter 185: The Chamber of Secrets
"We never intended to take her, we wanted to save her, just like you did." ”
Hu San suddenly showed a trace of gratitude, which was another way to live to be understood by others, and he even overflowed tears.
"That's right, that's right, I saved her, you know, I can't, can't give her to Nangong He. ”
Qi Ying'er actually heard him call Nangong He's name for the first time, and thought to herself: "It seems that Nangong He's disciples don't all rely on him, Hu San may have eight points of fear and three points of hatred for him. ”
Qi Ying'er suddenly softened, squatted down, and tried her best to look at him at eye level, rather than looking down condescendingly.
Qi Ying'er said, "Now are you going to take us to her?"
Hu San hesitated: "You, what are you going to do?"
After Qi Ying'er and Kong got acquainted, she said, "We will do the same thing as you, save her and let him leave this mountain, so that you don't have to worry about her being discovered by Nangong He or others." ”
Hu San said: "But, but you still want to take her away from me." ”
Qi Ying'er said: "No, maybe you can go with her, you must want to leave here too." ”
Hu San showed a look of surprise, "You, how are you ...... Know. ”
Qi Ying'er blinked and said, "This is normal, no one wants to be an apprentice to a notorious person." ”
Hu Sandao: "What you said is not right, Nangong He has many apprentices. ”
Qi Ying'er said with a smile: "You are definitely not included in it, you don't want to be his apprentice, and you can't guarantee that there are no other people like you who are his apprentices because they are afraid of him." ”
Hu San lowered his head, as if he was caught in a memory. Recall why you worship Nangong He as a teacher, why?
He couldn't think of it, maybe it was because he was afraid of him. But what happens if you leave yourself? Will you die?
He knew that Nangong He's punishment for traitors was worse than death. The thing more terrible than death is the betrayal of Nangong He.
But these people in front of him slowly instigated themselves to betray Nangong He, what should they do? He was thinking and making a painful choice.
That's when he thought of the woman.
He raised his head and said, "Okay, I'll take you to find it." ”
Qi Ying'er stood up and stretched out her hand to Hu San.
Hu San looked at this hand and was stunned for a moment before holding it tightly. Qi Ying'er pulled him up, and Hu San hummed again because of the pain in his right shoulder.
Yao Banshan shifted his body, his gaze swept over Qi Ying'er and Kong, he obviously couldn't understand why they did this.
It's like that woman is important. Could there be anything more important than meeting Nangong Crane?
Hu San endured the pain, raised his left hand and pointed to the east. There, there is a road, go from there.
Qi Ying'er said, "Okay, then let's go." ”
Hu San hesitated for a moment, looking at the junior brother lying on the ground, dead and wounded.
Yao Banshan said: "Anyway, you're leaving here, what do you care about them?"
Hu San nodded slightly, and his movements were so small that he almost didn't seem to have done it. He didn't want to look directly at Yao Banshan anymore, his right shoulder was already painful enough.
Hu San slowly walked in front, Qi Ying and Kong followed, and Yao Banshan walked last.
Sure enough, on the deleted side, there is a small path, which is not hidden, but it is very inconspicuous. If no one points it out, it will be difficult for others to notice, let alone choose to take this path.
The road was narrow and tortuous, going up and down, turning non-stop, and Qi Ying'er even wondered if she had already circled the mountain.
But they didn't have long to walk, and came to a boulder. This stone is actually part of the mountain, and it is not remarkable. The strange thing about the country is that there are no weeds growing on it, there is no moss, and one place on the stone is still very smooth. Qi Ying'er guessed that it was someone who kept touching it with their hands. He remembers that when he was a child, the horns of a calf carved out of stone by the river were touched by children and adults as if they were waxed.
This stone is not as popular as the stone calf, and it has been touched so many times, Qi Ying'er thought, it should be a mechanism or something.
That's right, it's a trap.
Hu San slowly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the shiny place.
This stone suddenly shook with a "boom", and Qi Ying'er thought that the whole mountain was shaking, and was startled.
Hu San said: "Only I know this secret door." ”
Sora nodded, "It seems you've been here many times." ”
Hu San smiled slightly, but because of the pain in his right shoulder, the smile looked a little strange.
"Come in. ”
The stone door gradually opened, and a sloping hole appeared, and it was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
There are stairs on the edge of the cave entrance, but after the third step, they gradually disappear into the dark hole.
"Please follow me...... Come. He seemed hesitant.
Qi Ying'er guessed that he might be doubting what he and Sora said, but he thought that Hu San's nature was not bad, so he would never lie to a good person.
Hu San walked down slowly, Qi Ying'er followed behind him, and Kong followed behind Qi Ying'er, only Yao Banshan hesitated for a moment in front of the stone cave, knowing that Kong turned his head and said, "Master Yao, please come over together." Then he followed.
He hesitated again before stepping into the cave. Knowing that the empty head was hidden in the darkness, he continued to walk.
When he walked down the seven stairs and his whole body was already in the darkness of this secret hole, he suddenly heard the sound of "boom boom" from the stone door behind him, and he suddenly turned around and wanted to rush out, but it was too late.
He used five points of his palm to hit the stone door, but it didn't move. He was a little surprised, he had practiced the "Black Wind Palm" for decades, and he couldn't even break a stone?
So he increased the force of his hand again, this time he used seven or eight points of strength, but when he hit it, he was shocked by his own strength, his arm was numb and painful, and he was almost shocked and fell down the stairs.
At this time, I was speechless in surprise, and thought, "This stone is really strange." ”
At this time, he heard an empty voice from below: "Master Yao, please come down quickly." ”
Yao Banshan thought: "Hmph, this kid is not capable, this place may have other exits......"
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw that it was not all dark under the stairs, but he saw a little light, like a door.
His eyesight in the dark was excellent, and this was when he had practiced kung fu before. So he walked easily to the lighted door.
When he walked to take a look, he realized that there was a secret room in this secret cave, and to his surprise, this secret room was completely closed, but he didn't know where the light came from.
In short, it is very spacious and bright. A wide passage with stone chambers on both sides, two on the left and three on the right.
Each stone chamber is also lit up, and the source of the light is also mysterious.
Yao Banshan stood at the entrance of the passage, carefully looking at everything here. He touched the walls and saw that the stone seemed to be of the same kind as the door.
It's such a strange place.
Yao Banshan coughed lightly, only a brief dull echo.
After a while, Sora walked out of a stone room on the left, the expression on his face was so elusive that Yao Banshan couldn't understand it, at least.
The empty face seemed to be full of embarrassment, and sympathy.
But this sympathy seems to be heavy.
Yao Banshan asked, "What's wrong?"
Kong shook his head and said, "Master Yao, please come and see for yourself." ”
Yao Banshan frowned, reluctantly but curiously walked over, and when he walked to the door of the stone room, he seemed to smell a smell of blood, which made his whole body tense.
When he saw the scene in the house, he was even more surprised.
Hu San is dead. Only his body, his head rolled to the side, leaning on the right side of the corpse, a large pool of blood was left on the ground, Yao Banshan felt that the quilt on the bed had also sucked a lot of blood.
He saw Qi Ying'er standing aside in panic again, his hands, body, face, and hair were also covered with blood. Yao Banshan's first reaction was that Qi Ying'er killed Hu San and cut off his head.
But he suddenly felt that this was impossible.
Seeing that Qi Ying'er was crying, it was probably because of fear, so he didn't cry at all.
Yao Banshan said: "What's going on?"
Sora said behind him, "It was already like this when we came. His head and his body were covered only by a layer of skin. Brother Qi wanted to cover the blood gushing out of him, but as soon as he touched it, his head rolled down. ”
Yao Banshan still didn't understand. How could Hu San suddenly die? Who killed him?
"No one saw who killed Hu San. ”
"He didn't see it either?" Yao Banshan said Qi Ying'er.
Sora shook his head and said, "No, when he came down, Hu San was already dead." ”
"But he obviously came down after Hu San came down. It stands to reason that I will see Hu San soon. ”
Sora sighed and said, "Because the lower part of the stairs is darker, Brother Qi and I both walk very slowly. Hu San had already walked down, and I saw her enter the door of this passage. ”
Yao Banshan looked at Hu San's tumbling head and said, "He didn't commit suicide!"
"Of course not!"
"Someone killed him!"
"Someone must have killed him!"
"That person is most likely him!"
"This ...... No way!" Kong Dao, he was defending Qi Ying'er.
"I came in behind Brother Qi, saw him run in front of Hu San, and saw that he wanted to cover Hu San's neck, but I didn't expect it...... So, it could never be him. ”
"You're saying there's anyone else besides us?"
Sora sighed and said, "I searched all the places just now, but there was no one. ”
Yao Banshan said: "When I came down just now, the stone door behind me was closed. ”
"Closed?" Sora looked surprised.
Yao Banshan was even more surprised and said, "Yes, I heard you shouting at me in a hurry to come down, so I won't care about the stone gate." ”
"No, Master Yao, I'm ...... I've never called you. ”
"But you ...... at the entrance of the cave just now," Yao Banshan's eyes widened in disbelief.
"When I was at the entrance of the cave, I did say that I asked Master Yao to come down as soon as possible, but I didn't say a word after that. ”
Is this true? Yao Banshan couldn't believe his ears.
Sora sighed, "It looks like we're trapped here. ”
