Chapter 176: The Game

It's very simple to kill someone, but if you want to ask the answer to a question from a person's mouth, it's much more difficult, and when this person is the owner of Yanyu Building, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

Mrs. Xu's heart couldn't be clearer, she was too big this time, she was caught by mistake, unless a miracle happened, I am afraid she would not be able to get out alive.

The countdown to his life had actually begun, but he remained silent. It's not because he still wants to struggle, or because he waits for the hope that doesn't exist, it's just that the time hasn't come yet. He also wants to play a game, and he still has last words to confess.

Xu Ruyi played with the three-sided jade Buddha and the simple and sharp dagger found from Mrs. Xu's body, and was a little puzzled: "It's normal to come out and kill people, with a dagger." But you still have this jade Buddha on your body, aren't you panicking?"

Maybe it's the thinking of modern people, or maybe it's because of the identity, this jade Buddha is just a plaything in Xu Ruyi's eyes after all, not as obsessed as others.

"Why bother, tell us everything we want to know, and our family will give you a good time, isn't that good?" The dagger was put into his arms, and he casually said that the Jade Buddha was placed on the wooden table in the cell, Xu Ruyi said: "Don't think that if you don't open your mouth, our family will really have no way to deal with you, it's just that some methods are more time-consuming." ”

"Then you can use it. Mrs. Xu weakly spit out blood-red saliva and sneered.

"Isn't that afraid of trouble? Xu Ruyi smiled.

"Heh, hehe. Mrs. Xu smiled weirdly: "It is unknown who killed the deer." ”

"Understood. Xu Ruyi nodded: "Then let our family see how many days you can last."

It's not that he's bluffing, he really has a way.

I once read a report that basically said that a person can live for more than forty days without eating, seven days without drinking water, and without sleeping... People lose consciousness and the ability to think for about ten days.

"Someone. Xu Ruyi greeted him, and a fan of the East Factory walked in: "Overseer." ”

"Treat him with good food and drink, and don't torture him anymore. Xu Ruyi stretched out his hand and pointed at Mrs. Xu in front of him: "It's just that from today onwards, don't let him sleep anymore." ”

"Uh... "I don't understand what Xu Ruyi means, and I don't understand what this is for. But he still nodded and replied: "Yes, the little one understands." ”

"Hmm. Xu Ruyi picked up the jade Buddha in his hand and got up to leave.

。。。。。。

"Overseer. ”

As soon as he walked out of the county jail, Fang Tianyou greeted him.

"What's the news again?" asked Xu Ruyi.

Fang Tianyou opened his mouth and replied: "There is news from Dongchang, saying that Yue Songting, the head of Huashan, has invited the leaders of the other three sects and six factions to Shaolin to narrate. ”

"Oh?" Xu Ruyi asked again, "Have you ever found out what happened?"

"It is said that ... It's for the White Lotus Sect. ”

"White Lotus Sect?" Xu Ruyi frowned and said, "What's going on over there with the White Lotus Sect?"

"That's right. Fang Tianyou spoke slowly.

The reputation of the White Lotus Sect in the martial arts has always been bad, but at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect made great efforts to restore the rivers and mountains of the Han family, so the major sects in the rivers and lakes gave three points to it.

However, in his heart, he was still hostile after all, after all, when it came to strength, the White Lotus Sect was far above the other factions, and it was really a big threat.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the White Lotus Sect to be beaten as an evil sect, and the imperial army surrounded and suppressed the Holy Land of the White Lotus Sect, Kunlun Guangmingding. The various factions have contributed a lot openly and secretly, but they haven't made a direct move, so they can be regarded as retaining the last bit of decency.

But in the last martial arts conference, Tang Sai'er intended to kill all the martial arts factions in power, and the two sides completely tore their faces, and in the following years, the two sides launched countless fights in various parts of the rivers and lakes, with countless casualties.

And this time, Tang Sai'er traded with Xu Ruyi to prepare to rebuild the Guangming Peak. Although this matter has not yet spread on a large scale, the newly established Sun and Moon God Cult has already raised its banner.

At first, everyone in the rivers and lakes didn't care, but it was a small sect that opened the mountain and established the sect, but for more than a year, Yue Songting found out from nowhere, it turned out that this Sun Moon God Sect was the White Lotus Sect, and the White Lotus Sect was the Sun Moon God Sect, and the two were just a name difference.

That's why we have this Shaolin line. The leaders of the three sects and seven factions gathered together, and they discussed a result among themselves, and they were basically able to settle the matter.

It's just that the list sent by Dongchang has Zuo Qiuhua's name on it, and Fang Tianyou thinks that it may also be involved with Dongchang.

After listening to Fang Tianyou's story, Xu Ruyi nodded and expressed his understanding: "I said why didn't Tang Sai'er come, and Wusheng and Sikong Xuan also came and went in a hurry, it seems to be related to this matter." Did the White Lotus Sect react again?"

"This point, the East Factory has not yet been checked. ”

"Forget it, it's not a big deal, it just so happens that I'm going to Shaolin too. When the time comes, see for yourself, won't you know everything?" Glancing at Fang Tianyou, Xu Ruyi asked again, "Have you found out which day you made the appointment?"

"August 15, we are still in time. ”

"Hmm. That's waiting. When we dig out the news from that guy's mouth, we'll go. ”

"Yes. ”

After a little consideration, Fang Tianyou spoke again: "Overseer, this time in Shaolin, should we bring more people from the capital, after all, whether it is in terms of status, prestige, or even its own strength, Shaolin is different from ordinary Jianghu sects." ”

"Scared?"

"No, no, no. How could a subordinate be afraid. Fang Tianyou hurriedly shook his head: "I just want to make complete preparations." ”

"There's no need to prepare anything. Xu Ruyi sneered: "Even if you don't bring it alone, our family goes to Shaolin alone, and we are not afraid of them."

You must know that Dongchang is not a sect, but a yamen of the imperial court. When our family speaks, it represents the meaning of the imperial court. Although the conventional court has always been in charge of its own affairs, Grandpa Tai did not put this rule on his pen and wrote it into the Daming Law.

If our family really has the heart and is willing to pay some price, the fall of Shaolin Wudang is just around the corner!"

"But... "After all, Fang Tianyou is from the rivers and lakes, and he has a natural fear of the top forces of the three sects and seven sects.

"That's right. Xu Ruyi's mind flashed, and he suddenly remembered something again, and said: "Our family remembers, the leader of the martial arts alliance is elected every five years, right? The last martial arts conference was held in Qingcheng Mountain in the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, and now that it is calculated, the leader of the martial arts alliance will be elected again this year?"

"That's not true," Fang Tianyou shook his head and explained: "The overseer doesn't know, the first emperor has died less than a year ago. Although the edict said that only three days of mourning were needed, how could they dare to really pass three days? Therefore, the local government actually extended the deadline to one year, so this year's martial arts conference was also postponed to next year. ”

"Heh, Yue Songting is lucky, he picked up the alliance leader for a year for nothing. It seems that he went to Shaolin this time, and he did not mean to discuss the next martial arts alliance leader. Xu Ruyi smiled, and then said thoughtfully: "Perhaps, there are really some articles to do here." ”

"What does the Overseer mean?"

"What do you mean? Xu Ruyi smiled mysteriously: "I just think that these sects get together to chat, and drinking tea is a little boring, and our family is going to add some excitement to them." ”

。。。。。。

A moonless night

After the small oil lamp on the table was blown out, the room was completely darkened. Xu Ruyi was wearing a single placket, lying on the bed, and began to recall everything that happened today.

It's either fine, or it's one after the other. A few days ago, I was still worried, but in just one day today, I first put on incense, and then caught the owner of Yanyu Building. After some severe punishment, he received the news that the three sects and seven factions would meet Shaolin.

No, it should be four religions and seven sects. Tang Sai'er's White Lotus Sect will inevitably join in the excitement. Coupled with his own East Factory, it must be a big bustle at that time.

The sleepiness gradually swelled up, and I suddenly remembered Mrs. Xu's last weird smile and the sentence "I don't know who killed the deer." ”

Why? Xu Ruyi really couldn't see what chance Mrs. Xu had to win. The muscles are broken, the eyelids can't be opened, what hole cards can be turned over?

"No! There's a problem here!" Xu Ruyi sat up suddenly, crossed his knees, and began to examine his internal organs.

In that tea shed, if she hadn't seen Mrs. Xu's flaws, what would have been the result? So what's the point of what Mrs. Xu did this time?!

The biggest possibility is that there is a problem in that bowl of tea!

Thinking together, I suddenly felt a tingling pain in my chest.

"Hmm!" Xu Ruyi covered her lips, her eyes narrowed, and in the dark, blood slowly left between her fingers...

Xu Ruyi felt it, and a breath that seemed to be there and nothing spread between his heart and lungs, converging, and circling.

Sure enough, it is poisonous, silent, but real.

"System. Closing his eyes, Xu Ruyi summoned his biggest reliance in this life: "What kind of poison do I have!"

"Testing... ”

"Done. ”

"The poison in the host is for the sake of opportunity. ”

"Lead?" Xu Ruyi had never heard of the name, but fortunately, the system gave a detailed explanation.

"The medicine is the poison used by the ancient emperors when they wanted to give death to their ministers and concubines. The fame of the drug is that it poisoned the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. After eating for three days, the person's head will begin to twitch, and finally die of contact with the rickets of the feet, which seems to be pulling the machine, so it is called "pulling the machine". ”

"Is there an antidote?" Xu Ruyi asked again.

"None. ”

"None?!" Xu Ruyi felt inexplicable regret in his heart, could he die here?

Withdrawing from the system, I felt it carefully, and the black qi in my body was still slowly spreading, encroaching along the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, little by little.

"Calm down, be calm. Xu Ruyi frowned, but he hadn't given up yet. In the current situation, if you are also panicked, then everything will be over.

The fact that there is no antidote in the system does not mean that there is really no cure. Over the years, Xu Ruyi has also had an understanding of this system in his body. The system is not a panacea, and it has a limit.

Taking martial arts as an example, the four great divine skills of Tianmen, only one "Sunflower Treasure Book" can be exchanged in the system, and others such as "Wuxiang Gong", "White Bone Zen" and "Heavenly Silkworm Demon Gong" are all blank, and there is not even an introduction.

Martial arts are all like this, and the pills are not necessarily different.

There is no antidote to the system, what about the people who poisoned it?

didn't care about dressing, grabbed the gentleman's sword next to the pillow, and Xu Ruyi rushed to the yamen prison.

Three days is not a long time, Xu Ruyi needs to seize every second.

"Found it, came to beg me?" was blind, but Mrs. Xu's hearing was still there, and she felt Xu Ruyi's breath, and Mrs. Xu chuckled, as if she had already won the battle. He loved the feeling of being pleaded, the way he controlled the life and death of others, and what he demanded from them, which fascinated him until now.

"Get out. Xu Ruyi waved his hand back from the guards around him, pulled a chair and sat down in front of Mrs. Xu: "You are very proud?"

Mrs. Xu asked rhetorically, "Shouldn't I be complacent? If you know what kind of poison you have... ”

"Pull the machine. Xu Ruyi said in a deep voice: "You use the medicine that poisoned the emperor to poison us, but it is a good skill." ”

"There's a reward for killing you, and no one gives me money for killing your subordinate. Where am I willing to give. Mrs. Xu shook her head.

"We don't understand. Xu Ruyi was puzzled: "You are already a wasted person, and you can't escape, for you, the best result is just a life for a life, what are you proud of?"

This time it was Mrs. Xu's turn to be silent.

After a while, Mrs. Xu spoke: "You want to ask the court about the whereabouts of the 200,000 taels of silver?"

"Yes. ”

"You still want to get my Smoke and Rain Building, right?"

"Not bad. ”

"You have been poisoned by me, and I have become a wreck, and have fallen into your hands. Mrs. Xu said slowly: "I have a hobby in my life, which is to watch people make life and death decisions. I know I'm going to die, but now I want to play with you. ”

"What to play?"

"Where the smoke and rain building and the silver go, or the antidote to the opportunity, you can only choose one of the two, how do you choose?"

"Huh. Xu Ruyi smiled playfully: "What are you kidding, one side is fate, and the other side is some things outside the body, what do you think our family will choose? This is also called a life and death decision?"

"Not necessarily. Mrs. Xu smiled again: "You have an adopted daughter, named Ouyang, you seem to like her very much, right?"

In one sentence, Xu Ruyi's laughter stopped abruptly, his breathing gradually became heavier, his hands clenched into fists, and he rattled.

"You also have an apprentice, named Gu Yuezhen, you don't seem to be good to him? Yesterday I gave the order of the master downstairs, and now there should be someone who wants to do it. Mrs. Xu's voice was playful: "Those miscellaneous can't kill you, but can the master of my Yanyu Building kill your Ouyang and Gu Yuezhen?

The black shadow flashed, and Xu Ruyi suddenly reached out and grabbed Mrs. Xu's neck: "You really want to die so much?"

"I don't want to, but I'm dead, you won't let me get out alive, and now I just want to play this game with you. The force on her neck made it difficult for Mrs. Xu to speak, but she still struggled and said: "I got Yanyu Building, and it's still too late to order the cancellation of my landlord's order." Or let them die and save themselves, what will you choose?"
