Chapter 227: Succession
After the master of Qionglou said this, a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and he actually smiled at Jiuquan like this.
Xu Pei saw it in his eyes, he didn't expect that he would have a chance of winning, and he also absorbed the other party's internal strength for decades.
He felt that his whole body was swollen uncomfortably, and his upper body was so swollen that it was about to burst.
At this time, several women led by Aunt Tong appeared behind him, Xu Pei's senses became extremely acute, he didn't feel the murderous aura, and slowly turned around.
"Congratulations to the landlord for refining his divine skills. Aunt Tong spoke, and the other women echoed, and they immediately knelt on the ground to perform the salute of master and servant.
Xu Pei said angrily: "What are you doing, my aunt died because of me, instead of avenging her, you respect me as the landlord, what is the reason?"
Aunt Tong half-knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The ancestor of the ruthless faction, whoever masters the mystery of 'blood river and red sleeves' is the new landlord, and the doorman is not allowed to disobey, otherwise he will be punished with death." ”
"Heartbreaker?"
Aunt Tong saw Xu Pei's puzzled face, and explained: "The landlord doesn't know, we claim to be 'Yuyu Qionglou' on the rivers and lakes, but in fact, the real name of our sect is 'Desperate Sect', and we have concealed it before, so we really have to do it." ”
After listening to Aunt Tong's words, Xu Pei's obese face showed an expression of horror and anger, and the doubts and guilt of killing the owner of Qionglou were gone, and at this moment he was like a cat whose tail was trampled on.
"Ruthless faction, hehe, as far as I know, this so-called ruthless faction is the first demon sect in martial arts a hundred years ago, which was born almost overnight, and within seven days, it bloodied the six major sects. In the end, it was exterminated by the famous faction led by Shaolin Wudang, and it was unexpectedly that there were still remnants. Woe to the martial arts. ”
Saying these words is really heartbreaking. After Aunt Tong and the other women heard this, their faces were all moved, but the other party was the new landlord, so they didn't dare to attack anyway, so they had to hold back the anger in their hearts.
Aunt Tong was the first to speak: "The landlord thinks that there is a misunderstanding of our sect, according to the patriarch's testament, anyone who succeeds the landlord must go to the second floor to watch, and wait for you to go." There may be a different understanding. ”
Hearing the second floor, Xu Pei showed a look of curiosity, he came to this stone building for more than a year, but he had never been to any second floor, this whole building is towering, supported by stone pillars, the ceiling is unusually high, he thought it was just one floor, but he didn't expect that there was any second floor.
Even if there is. There is no ladder in the whole stone building, so do you have to leap up? Even if you fly up, there should always be a door, but where is the door?
Seeing that the puzzled expression on Xu Pei's face became heavier and heavier. Aunt Tong opened her mouth and said, "The landlord only needs to enter the stone room of retreat and use all his strength to push the stone wall on the left to move it away. Then follow the stairs down to the second floor. ”
Xu Pei couldn't help but be speechless. It turned out that the so-called second floor was actually underground, and he had been in retreat in the stone chamber before. I also paid attention to the structure inside, but I didn't find a wall that could be moved, and when I heard Aunt Tong say this, I reacted, and it was because I didn't have enough skills before, so I naturally couldn't reach that step.
In order to find out the ins and outs of the matter, Xu Pei said to Aunt Tong and the others: "You bury your aunt, I must figure out this matter." ”
After he finished speaking, he staggered towards the stone chamber, and the rest of the people watched him leave, secretly relieved.
"You two are responsible for bathing the former landlord, you two go to prepare for Kaifan, you go to report filial piety to the sect master, and please return to the scripture box, we must bury her in accordance with the rules, the former landlord will consider the sect for the rest of his life, and finally achieve his wish, you can also smile at Jiuquan." ”
Aunt Tong stood up and instructed the other women, these people were ordered to act separately, Aunt Tong looked at the direction in which they disappeared, and solemnly glanced at the dry and thin corpse, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "To make such a sacrifice, just to ask for an explanation, and to bury the freedom of several generations for this, is this really persistence, or stupid?"
No one heard her, and she naturally did not dare to raise her doubts in front of others, knowing that they were loyal to their faith, and that she would be denounced as a heretic and severely punished by her companions.
Luo Liuli in the house heard a huge movement outside, but she still didn't get out of her room, this fight, no matter who the loser was, she didn't want to see it.
She gently touched her belly, and in the past six months, she has become more and more able to feel the life in her belly and her tacit understanding, every time she touches, the child in her belly will respond to her, and she can feel the beating of life, as if he was in the palm of her hand.
"Child, my mother wants to see you earlier, can you be born early so that my mother can take a look?"
When Luo Liuli said this, her tone was full of love, at this time she was no longer the cold, lonely and peerless woman, just an ordinary mother.
She thinks more about the future of the child, he knows in his heart that the relationship between him and Xu Pei has become shallower and shallow, if there is really a day when there is no incompatibility, at least one child will leave a little thought.
Xu Pei stood in the stone room, he ran the internal force of his body, he felt that his dantian had expanded more than three times, and the true qi inside was like a rushing river, carrying mud and sand rolling in.
He couldn't fully control this powerful internal force, and with a palm strike, the thick stone wall did not move at all, but he was bounced away by this huge anti-shock force, and he took several steps backwards one after another.
He knew that he was too anxious, his internal strength was now in a state of chaos, and forcibly using it would definitely leave sequelae, Xu Pei began to suppress his restless emotions, and sat cross-legged, intending to integrate his internal strength before hitting the stone wall with all his strength.
This sitting was a day and a night, and even he didn't know what happened in this day and night. He thought it was just a short time, because he had only run his internal force for a big and small week, and there was no obvious hunger.
Aunt Tong and others have buried the former landlord, Luo Liuli stood in front of the tombstone, looking at it in a daze, she sniffed, feeling a little sour, but she did not shed tears. My aunt has spoiled her since she was a child, but she restrained her, and she didn't want to bear the same fate as her, so she sneaked out and roamed the rivers and lakes.
But in the end, she was not able to be free, and the rope of fate seemed to be around her neck all the time, and every time she went farther, the rope would tighten and suffocate her.
Dusk came, the sunset hung like a huge lantern in the sky, and there was not a trace of cooking smoke on the billowing yellow sand, and there was not a single human voice.
But there was the sound of horses' hooves, fluttering and faint, galloping from far and near. (To be continued.) )
