Chapter 622: Torture
Xiao Han's heart moved, afraid that the remaining twelve murderers would come again, so he hurriedly ran out, and the rest of the people also came out.
I saw a few Wudang disciples holding a cauliflower snake with sticks and shouting there, Xiao Han's hanging heart gradually let go, as long as it wasn't Du Canghuang's arrival. The guy was frightened by himself, and it was estimated that he would stay by Chen Liuyu Yunxi's side and never dare to come out.
When the disciples saw him come out, they came over to say hello. Xiao Han smiled and replied to them, and asked about the origin of the snake, and a Wudang disciple said with a smile: "We were collecting firewood to make a fire for cooking, and we saw this snake on the edge of the cliff. As he spoke, he swung his sword, cut the cauliflower snake on the stick into two pieces, and laughed: "This snake is not poisonous at all, but it scared Brother Liu." ”
The disciple surnamed Liu was so ashamed that his face was red and he quietly retreated. The Wudang disciples laughed for a while, and then went to work again.
Xiao Han instructed Xing Anping to strengthen vigilance and not to relax. Xing Anping immediately sent dozens of Qingji disciples to be on duty everywhere, and then returned to Xiao Han's shack with everyone.
Xiao Han discussed with everyone for a while, deducing all the details that could be thought of, and everyone was shocked and excited when they heard his plan. It's just that Chai Xinyue and Murong Qiuyu were slightly dissatisfied on their faces, but they didn't speak.
Bai Jiuxiao heard that he was going to turn his face with Shaolin, and hesitated: "Shaolin has always been an authentic martial arts sect, although it was disrespectful to our sect before, but he also sent second-generation disciples to help the head of the sect against the enemy. Everything should be done in moderation, and it should not hurt the harmony of martial arts. ”
Xiao Han said with a smile: "Old man Bai is right, as long as Xingkong cooperates, the head of this sect will definitely give him face." Bai Jiuxiao shook his head and was silent.
The plan has been decided, and all the responsibilities for the division of labor are assigned to the people. Seeing that it was getting late, the Wudang disciples had already set up hundreds of small shacks on the slopes on both sides of the mountain, and bought hundreds of bedding to distribute them. Along with the food, they were brought from the town in ox carts.
Now that the Wudang faction has money, it naturally won't treat itself badly. After everything was done, he came back to see Xiao Han.
Everyone had already dispersed, Xiao Han was taking care of Chai Xinyue in another shack to rest, and Li Yueying and Murong Qiuyu stood on both sides. The seven sons of Wudang and Su Ruotong had Bai Jiuxiao and Sima An on the side to test the martial arts, and there were many Wudang disciples watching the battle.
Chai Xinyue only drank a little porridge at night, which made Li Yueying and Xiao Han very worried. The old Chinese medicine doctor who invited was driven away by Chai Xinyue, and gave three coins of silver to others for nothing, which made Li Yueying very dissatisfied.
At this time, Li Yueying was persuading her to rest early with a cold face, she always thought that the wind was high and heavy along the way, and Chai Xinyue was a little cold. Murong Qiuyu and Xiao Han naturally knew the reason, one didn't say it, the other didn't dare to say it, just stood aside and watched the conversation between the two.
Wan Shicheng came in with a smile on his face and said, "Have you eaten with the head and a few ladies?" Xiao Han was stunned and said, "Are you done?" Wan Shicheng nodded and said: "I heard that the head of the family specially asked me to come, I don't know what the important thing is?"
Xiao Han hurriedly got up and walked out, followed by Murong Qiuyu. Li Yueying was just about to follow, but when she turned around, she saw Chai Xinyue's face was pale and a little hesitant. Xiao Han naturally saw it, nodded at her and said, "You accompany Senior Sister Chai, and I will say a few words to Minister Wan." ”
Li Yueying nodded, smiled at Chai Xinyue, and said, "Let them talk about business, and I'll talk to my sister." Chai Xinyue said softly: "Thank you, sister." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Han meaningfully, Xiao Han coughed, turned his face to Wanshi, and said, "You come with me." Murong Qiuyu followed the two out and returned to Xiao Han's shack.
Hearing that the Wudang Sect of Putuo Mountain was destroyed, everything was almost fainted, if it weren't for Murong Qiuyu stepping forward to support him and falling to the ground, his eyes suddenly became dull, and the expression on his face was extremely painful, and it took a while for two lines of old tears to flow out: "How can this be? How can this be?"
Xiao Han looked at him lightly, and said for a long time: "It is rumored that Ye Qingshu betrayed his sect and colluded with the demons of the White Lotus Sect to attack his sect at night, so that the sect could be destroyed." ”
Seeing everything come into being surprised, Xiao Han's face sank slightly and said, "I heard that you have a lot of dealings with Ye Qingshu, and now that he is nowhere to be found, do you know where he is hiding?"
There are words in his words, everything is sixty or seventy years old, naturally he can hear it, seeing that the head of the house suspects him, he immediately stood up straight, wiped a handful of tears and said: "Ye Qingshu was assigned by Hall Master Li and Hall Master Ye to Tokyo to get supplies, money and food, I thought that they were all old brothers, and they went to the island to be exposed to the wind and rain, and they couldn't bear it, so they ordered the steward to take all the materials they could. This matter is naturally inappropriate, as for Ye Qingshu, he only met me once, and he never saw it again. The boss suspected me of colluding with the demons, which made me really speechless. ”
Murong Qiuyu looked at him with a painful expression, and couldn't help but say softly: "This matter has nothing to do with Old Man Wan, and the brothers are very convinced of Old Man Wan." ”
Xiao Han glanced at her, sighed and said, "Ye Qingshu taught a traitor for me, I must catch him to avenge my brothers." Then he shook his head and said: "The brothers came out of the valley with me, I thought I could lead the brothers to live a good life, but who knew that this incident would happen, it really made me sleepless day and night." Putuo Mountain is far away from the Central Plains, I thought it would be quieter, I also have a good intention, how do I know that the rivers and lakes are sinister, there will still be this catastrophe, it is really unpredictable. ”
Wan Shicheng glanced at Murong Qiuyu gratefully, and saw Xiao Han blaming himself, and hurriedly said: "The people of the rivers and lakes are trying to survive on their heads, and it is inevitable that there will be such a result, the head of the family does not have to blame himself, wait for the affairs of the rivers and lakes, release the disciples to search for the traces of the thief, and must capture him alive and sacrifice him to the dead brothers." ”
Xiao Han comforted him a few more words, and then let everything go back to the shack to rest. Murong Qiuyu kept helping him out, and comforted him softly all the way, which moved Xiao Han very much.
The night is as cool as water, the bright moon is bright, the Wudang disciples gather together in groups to talk and laugh, several bonfires are lit, and some people sing with hoarse voices, which causes the disciples to laugh, but they unconsciously join in, and slowly become a chorus, and the momentum is quite majestic.
The seventh son of Wudang and Su Ruotong were tested by the second elder, but Jiang Haoyu ranked first, Su Ruotong ranked second, and Bai Haoming ranked fourth. Young Master Bai Qi had never beaten Su Ruotong, he lost face, and was ridiculed by the Wudang disciples, and his cheeks, who had always been thick enough, were a little unbearable, so he lay down early to rest after eating.
Su Ruotong wanted to ask him to come out to listen to the singing, but was stopped by Liuzi and told her that there were a lot of hares in the mountains, and just now they had invited the Qingping helmsman Wu Heqia to promise to take them to hunt rabbits. Su Ruotong had to go with them, the six sons hugged her like the stars holding the moon, and Wu Heqia took two disciples to open the way in front, and set up dozens of secret traps on a gentle slope three or four miles south of Taimur Mountain, and then ordered the six sons to scatter and trample on the grassy slope, startling several small beasts.
At the end of the night, not only four rabbits were trapped, but also a honey badger and a squirrel were caught. Supposedly, the squirrel should stay in the tree, but for some reason it scurried down and was trapped.
Wu Heqia had a lot of fun with the seven people, and the prey was taken by two disciples, the little squirrel injured its leg, and Su Ruotong asked to go, so he took the golden medicine to apply it, wrapped the wound with his own small handkerchief, and held it and never let go.
When the nine people went back, the moon was already westward, but fortunately, there were Wudang disciples on guard all the way, and the open and dark posts had been placed for three or four miles, which also showed that the Wudang faction acted cautiously.
There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, the Wudang disciples had breakfast and got together to talk and laugh. Xiao Han was washing his face in the house, when he heard someone outside shouting, "The old knights of the Tianshan Mountains have arrived." ”
Then I heard a humble voice from the people, and asked them to go to the north hut to rest. How dare Xiao Han slack off, he wiped his face casually, and hurriedly rushed out, but saw that Li Yueying, Murong Qiuyu, and Chai Xinyue had already come out, along with Bai Jiuxiao, Sima An, Chu Tianshu, and the three hall twelve helm masters, all lined up in several rows to greet everyone.
The Wudang disciples had already stood up solemnly and stood straight. Xiao Han saw five people walking slowly to the east, led by Diao Beidou, the head of the Tianshan faction who had a beard, followed by Li Tiandu, He Tianxiao and Ye Tianhan, Ye Tianhan was closely followed by a blue-robed beauty, it was Chai Xinyue's master Lan Aoshuang.
As soon as Xiao Han was about to step forward to meet him, he saw that the four elders of Tianshan Mountain and Lan Aoshuang had bowed down at the same time and said to Bai Jiuxiao: "The juniors have seen the old Bai seniors. "Bai Jiuxiao is the same age as Hei Baixiao, naturally he is their senior, but now he is a member of the Wudang faction, how dare he accept this big gift, he hurriedly bowed down and returned the salute, and he didn't dare to say anything.
Although Sima An is also the same generation as Bai Jiuxiao, it is a pity that he has always had a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, so he naturally can't be respected by others, but he has long been used to this, and he just squints at them with two small eyes.
Diao Beidou glanced at him, arched his hand lightly and said, "Fortunately." Sima An nodded as a return gift. Xiao Han hurriedly ran over, followed by Li Yueying, Murong Qiuyu, and Chai Xinyue, and the four of them bowed together.
Diao Beidou didn't wave his hand until they all bowed down and said, "That's it." Get up. Li Yueying didn't wait for him to finish speaking, she had already run to Ye Tianhan's side, grabbed her master's arm, and smiled: "Master, you are here, you want to kill me." ”
Chai Xinyue also ran to Lan Aoshuang's side, her eyes were red and she said, "Master." Lan Aoshuang glanced at her with pity, gently wiped away the tears on her face and said, "Good Yue'er, don't cry." Then he sighed and said, "Why are you so thin?"
The hall master and the helmsman, the seven sons of Wudang and Su Ruotong stepped forward to bow together, and the elders of the Tianshan Mountains thanked them, and Xiao Han greeted them into the largest shack in the north.
The Wudang faction did not dare to relax any longer, and immediately arranged several layers of vigilance, and at the same time, the disciples of each hall retreated to the shacks on the slopes on both sides, leaving a large open space.
Bai Jiuxiao led the high-level Wudang leaders to retreat, leaving only the five elders of Tianshan Mountain and Xiao Han, Li Yueying, Murong Qiuyu, and Chai Xinyue in the house. Li Yueying leaned closely on Ye Tianhan, and Chai Xinyue snuggled closely on Lan Aoshuang, both of whom looked happy and excited.
The second elder also looked at his precious apprentice with a warm face, and looked at his precious apprentice with a smile hidden in his eyebrows. After the Wudang disciples saluted the tea and retreated, Diao Beidou snorted, and the atmosphere in the room immediately became tense, and everyone looked at Xiang Xiao Han together.
Xiao Han was just about to speak, when he suddenly heard a soft sound of "uh", and Chai Xinyue suddenly covered the corners of his mouth and ran out.
