Heroes of the Fantasy World

(11)

When I just woke up, my eyes were dry and astringent, and everything I saw was cloudy.

Relying on intuition alone, Li Ke came to Qingyue Hall in a hurry. The yard was empty, and the poolside was no longer as relaxed and lively as yesterday.

The middle door of the medical hall was wide open, and everyone gathered here.

All the white curtains used to cover it were removed, leaving only a low table and a set of tea sets in the back room - the exquisite woman like a doll was sitting there drinking tea calmly.

The bright morning light shines on the side and rear, and the background is so bright that people have to look at her.

Tianxuanzi used puppet-like movements to repeat the movement of drinking tea very regularly and traceably. All the disciples stood neatly on both sides, and everyone was silent, with unprecedented serious expressions.

Li Keyong didn't dare to come in to call on him right away, so he just knelt outside the door and begged to see him, saying: "Disciple Li Keyong, come to apologize!"

"What are you kneeling there for, come in..." After finishing speaking, Tianxuanzi sipped his teacup gracefully, put it back in the same place, and continued: "Are you still trying to delay time and make excuses for yourself? Hurry up! Tell me what you saw and heard last night!"

"Yes!" Li Ke stooped to the door and walked a few steps, then knelt down and said, "I stayed here until dawn last night, and I never left my post during this period. I really don't know why the witch disappeared out of thin air."

Tianxuanzi asked: "Is that true?"

"No lie!"

Before the words were finished, two disciples came out from the two sides and knelt down together with Li Keyong, pleading: "I will guarantee my life, what my brother just said is absolutely not a half lie!"

Tianxuanzi repeated the action of drinking tea just now, with a calm demeanor, still unchanged, and said: "You all stand up first, and explain exactly who came last night."

Li Keyong: "Only one disciple who delivered tea came."

"The disciple who brought tea?" Tianxuanzi asked everyone, "Did you bring tea here last night?"

No one answered.

Li Ke lowered his head and waited for instructions, but unexpectedly, Tianxuanzi crushed the teacup in his hand and threw it on the table: "Such a small skill!"

"Uncle Master, calm down!" Li Keyong trembled when he heard it, and lowered his head even lower.

"Li Keyong, follow me." Tianxuanzi slightly bandaged the wound on his hand, then took him to the cubicle, turned the mechanism behind the bookshelf, a depression appeared on the ground, and then slowly revealed a downward The spiral staircase is illuminated by candle lights along the way.

The short puppet also has very small steps, and Li Ke must be cautious when following behind, especially in such a narrow space-he can touch the walls on both sides with a little stretch of his hand, so as not to accidentally touch the puppet. To the respected uncle, he usually waits for the other party to walk a certain distance before slowly catching up.

"Actually, I'm afraid."

Li Ke was still trembling in his heart, the scene of the other party crushing the teacup with empty hands just now was vivid in his memory, this kind of thing was difficult even for a rough guy like him.

The distance between the left and right of the stairs gradually increased, and they were almost at the end.

There is another universe under the ground of Qingyue Hall.

The most conspicuous among them are all kinds of "boxes" neatly stacked in rows and rows.Along the way here, there are all transparent boxes.

"Brown, medicinal wine?" Li Keyong accidentally muttered, and Tianxuanzi immediately said: "This is the liver, from a living person."

"Eh!" Li Keyong suddenly felt a little disgusted, he took a few steps back, looked around, and sighed, "Could it be that these things belong to living people..."

Tianxuanzi didn't want to say more, so she just asked Li Keyong to go to her side quickly and said, "This has nothing to do with you, come and see if this woman is the Taoist priest who came to deliver tea last night?"

Li Keyong saw a row of prison cells in front, and there was probably an interrogation room in front, because there was a strong smell of blood coming from there.

"Who is this girl?" Seeing that she was not wearing a Taoist costume, Li Keyong didn't have the slightest impression.

"Kill me, I won't say anything!" the woman in the cage shouted.

Tianxuanzi squatted in front of the woman, and gently comforted her: "From the time I found out that she had no sign of 'fetal movement' until now, she has only said this sentence."

"Is she the one who came to deliver the tea last night?" Li Keyong looked at the person inside. He was twice as small as Murong Yan, and much more capable. He obviously had experience in martial arts.He suddenly realized: "Could it be that she wasn't the one who left!" Li Keyong dragged his tall body and knelt down in front of the little puppet again, begging for mercy.

"Uncle Tianxuan, I was really just negligent for a while! Give me a day, and I will be able to find out the whereabouts of the witch from this woman, and bring the witch back within three days. If you break your promise, let me deal with it! Please, You must not report this matter to the Heavenly Master..."

Tianxuanzi tilted his head expressionlessly, and said in a gloomy voice, "So, are you willing to sacrifice your heart, liver, spleen and stomach?"

"What?" He froze in fright.

Tianxuanzi stood up and patted the top of Li Keyong's head, as if comforting a pet dog: "This woman is still useful to me. You don't have to torture her. As for the whereabouts of the witch, you don't have to worry. She will definitely be there now." In Jinyang, the premise is that I must immediately tell the truth to the Celestial Master."

"Uncle Tianxuan." Li Keyong shed tears of despair.

"Li Keyong, do you still remember why you joined Taipingdao?" Tianxuanzi said suddenly: "Everyone comes to Taipingdao for different reasons. I can tell you that I came here just for the 'boxes' outside At this point, I need more 'caskets' to know how to save more patients and how to refine the elixir of 'immortality'."

"What about you?" She squatted in front of Li Ke and wiped away his tears, "Look at me."

"Ah."

"Did you let her go on purpose?" There was a smile on the corner of the little puppet's mouth, and she was obviously very curious about it: "Your eyes tell me that you care about her very much, and you still remember the time when you followed Taoist Tianji to her?" For a while, you still think about killing the witch all day long?"

"Kill, Miko..."

Li Ke recalled the memory of sneaking into the Holy Land and fighting Baifeng under the sacred tree, where his master died.

Tianxuanzi repeated the question just now: "Did you let her go on purpose?"

"No... I, maybe..."

"Heh." Tian Xuanzi stood up and said, "As long as you remember why you came to Taiping Road, the Celestial Master will not blame you."

Today is the last day of the martial arts competition. According to the usual practice, the grand exorcism ceremony will be performed again. All kinds of strange people wearing ghost masks, neat and solemn drum music, and the majesty of the emperor's arrival are all rare in ordinary people's life. Yes, the most special ones are naturally the two warriors in the final battle.
