Chapter 115(1/2)
ps: The guest came to my family at noon, so I delayed it. Please forgive me and support me.∈◆,
Qi Xiang left and left the back house.
As soon as he walked away, Zhu Hongwu appeared and frowned and said, "Xiaobai, do you really care about this?"
"Fifth Master..."
The girl was also very respectful to Zhu Hongwu and explained softly: "The Gu Shanhe is still the authentic direct descendant of the Gu family. He offended me and punished me for a small punishment. The Gu family dared not complain."
"If you make a desperate move and pass the bottom line, the Gu family may not agree."
The girl talked in a casual manner: "We are not afraid of the Gu family, but... the main thing is important, so don't make trouble."
“That’s true.”
Zhu Hongwu thought about it and sighed softly: "But, this makes you feel wronged."
"It's okay, I should have made a profit with a thunder bamboo and a moon pearl in the ocean."
The girl smiled and then frowned, "It's a pity that I originally wanted to take a look at Gu Shanhe, who is known as the number one in the younger generation of the Gu family, to see if he is qualified to join us. Unexpectedly, his character is so unbearable."
"The Gu family has fallen..."
The girl shook her head and felt sorry: "The style of the past is completely gone."
"The treasures of heaven and earth are heart-wrenching."
Zhu Hongwu said casually: "The Gu family entered the Tao with martial arts, and Lei Zhu seemed to be somewhat in line with his practice. He could not resist the temptation and snatch it, which is normal."
"If you don't have a good mind, it's hard to become a great man. But you must also admit that the Gu family's secret skills are also somewhat tricky. At least in melee combat, I am no match for him at all."
The girl analyzed: "Once he misses the first move, he approaches step by step, it is easy to lose all the game."
"Xiaobai, you are careless. You have a shallow experience and need to be experienced."
Zhu Hongwu said a few words of relief and changed the topic: "I originally thought that the Gu family came forward to coordinate. I didn't expect that an irrelevant person came to the door and even took out treasures like the moon pearl in the sea."
"Fifth Master, the world is very big, and there are many casual cultivators."
The girl smiled and said, "Everyone has his own opportunity. Did you do that back then?"
"yes."
Zhu Hongwushen agreed. A thought appeared in his eyes: "The problem is that opportunities are relatively easy to obtain, and immortal fate is hard to find."
"Who said it wasn't..."
The two chatted softly, avoiding some topics in a tacit understanding.
At the same time, Qi Xiang also returned to the gate of the house. As soon as he saw his figure, Mr. Hai hurriedly met him and asked in a low voice: "How is the situation?"
"Fortunately, I'm not humiliating my fate..." Qi Xiang raised the box in her hand and smiled: "It's done."
"Really?" Mr. Hai was overjoyed: "It's great..."
"Look, look." Tian Shi walked over and was a little worried: "What's in the box?"
“Let’s talk about it later…”
Qi Xiang waved, left the courtyard and got into the carriage.
The other three also followed and watched.
Qi Xiang opened the box and saw two things inside. One of them was a card, which was pitch black and simple. But the card was vaguely painted with simple lines.
At first glance, he knew that the card was unusual and full of strange aura.
In addition to the card, there is another thing, which is a bright white color, very small and exquisite jade plaque.
The jade token only has the area of a matchbox, which is relatively thin and very transparent.
Qi Xiang took a look and knew that the jade plaque was carved from high-quality beautiful jade. The texture was warm and delicate. There were wisps of cloud-like texture floating inside, which was very delicate and beautiful.
After looking at it for a while, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but reach out to pick up the jade tablet, flip it over and watch the other side.
On the other side of the jade plaque, there are shallow carving marks. A clumsy and ancient city is located among the misty clouds, making it look mysterious.
Qi Xiang narrowed her eyes and noticed a detail. A flag was hung above the head of the city. Among the flying flags, there was a seal character that was faintly visible.
"Beijing!"
Qi Xiang recognized it, and the seal character was exactly the character Jing.
"Bai Yu... Jing!"
Tian Shi was also watching from the side. After his face changed slightly, he immediately turned into a strong sense of joy: "Ahai, he didn't lie, this matter has really been resolved."
"Is this a token?" Mr. Hai was not stupid, he could see through it at all.
Qi Xiang reached out and touched the jade sign, shook her head gently: "This is not a token, but a debt of favor."
"...Fellow Daoist Qi, don't worry, we understand." Tian Shi said happily: "When I save Gu Shanhe, we will pay the debt for you..."
"Yes, it's important to save people." Mr. Hai nodded quickly and turned around and shouted: "Zhu Shen, drive!"
Zhu Shen curled his lips and expressed dissatisfaction with becoming a driver. However, he decided to endure it, and started it skillfully, driving the car away at lightning.
Not long after, the car stopped at a pier.
This is the pier beside Taihu Lake. There is a large ship moored beside the waters of Bibo Lake.
"Gu Shanhe is on the boat?" Qi Xiang asked curiously.
"No..." Mr. Hai waved and asked the people on the boat to land on the gangway. He answered with the flow: "He is not on the boat, but recuperating in the villa on Lake Island."
There are naturally many scattered islands in Taihu Lake. Some small islands are protected natural scenic spots. However, some of them are developed and utilized by merchants and built many villas on the island.
All of those villas are sky-high prices and cannot afford to live without a certain amount of capital.
Of course, this is not a big problem for Zhu Shen to buy several villas in Hudao. The place where Gu Shanhe can escape the pursuit is one of the villas in Hudao under his name.
After driving the boat, I arrived at the island after half an hour.
The scenery on the island is picturesque and lush with lush trees. The villa is built on the top of a mountain on the island. The lake is visible through the door. The autumn water and the sky are the same, and it is beautiful.
There is only one villa here, and the entire island belongs to Zhushen's private sector. The purchase price must be very amazing, which may be the sum of the value of some high-end properties.
However, Zhu Shen had become accustomed to it and had no intention of showing off. He took Qi Xiang and others to the island and entered the villa.
As soon as I entered the door, a hoarse roar, like a wounded beast, pierced through the thick wall and vaguely reached everyone's ears.
When Mr. Hai heard this, he frowned: "It seems to be serious again..."
"that……"
At this moment, Zhu Shen seemed to be escaping something and hesitated: "You go in by yourself, I won't get involved... I'll ask someone to prepare a banquet, and wait for you to save someone. Congratulations..."
“…It’s okay.”
Mr. Hai glanced at him and walked straight toward the interior of the villa.
Qi Xiang naturally followed him, walked in and then walked into an inconspicuous room in the corner of the villa.
Mr. Hai opened the door and entered, and his hoarse roar became clearer.
However, Qi Xiang looked around the room and found that the interior was simple but empty. When he was surprised, Mr. Hai walked to the bedside and reached out to pull the handrail at the head of the bed.
In an instant, a wall in the room suddenly cracked silently, revealing a hidden secret room.
Qi Xiang quickly looked at it and was shocked.
In the secret room, a person was locked inside, with thick and heavy steel bars and iron chains tied with ancient heavy prisoners, looking very miserable.
The man was not only miserable, but also very hideous and terrifying.
He was naked and his body was covered with muscles, one by one, with clear edges and one by one, and was constantly beating, and was filled with shiny sweat, as if full of explosive power.
However, there was a hint of blood in the sweat.
Qi Xiang looked at it again and found that the man was covered with slender blood marks. These blood marks seemed not very obvious, but they caused great pain to the man.
Because the blood marks, as if they were alive, were slowly squirming. Every time he moved, he clenched his fists, his muscles were tense, he was sweating profusely, and he was biting a cork on his mouth, whimpering.
He struggled in pain, and the chains struck deep traces on his hands and feet, but he was completely unaware of it...
"Hiss!"
Seeing this situation clearly, Qi Xiang couldn't help but take a breath and was uneasy.
Unexpectedly, this person was naturally Gu Shanhe. He finally understood why Mr. Hai and Tian Shihui said that Gu Shanhe is very miserable now, with only half of his life left, and life is worse than death.
Terrible...
Qi Xiang subconsciously moved her gaze away and couldn't bear to look directly.
"Huh!"
At this time, Gu Shanhe raised his head and made a painful and hoarse sound. His eyes were bloody red like blood, sharp and terrifying, and there seemed to be a little pleading in vaguely.
Qi Xiang glanced at him quickly, as if he could understand Gu Shanhe’s implicit meaning. He had been tortured and was about to collapse. If Mr. Hai couldn’t help him, just give him some pleasure, which was also a relief.
“Hurry quickly…”
Mr. Hai was also very anxious and urged: "Qi Xiang, please save people quickly."
