I couldn't afford the bride price, so I had to marry the Demon Sect Saintess

Chapter 171 The Prison Orchid
The owner's room is quite spacious, but there are black cloths hanging everywhere inside, even the moonlight outside the window is covered, only a few candles illuminate the corners, which looks a little weird.

Butler Lu was not surprised at all, obviously he was used to it, and walked into the inner room. There was also a black curtain hanging on a big bed inside, and he could only vaguely see a thin figure inside through the candlelight.

"Homeowner."

Butler Lu bowed and saluted.

The skinny figure behind the curtain spoke, the sound was like a broken gong, hoarse and terrifying:
"Have you found the third child?"

Steward Lu lowered his head and replied, "I have sent people to search all over the three cities and twelve towns, but I still haven't been able to find the third master."

"what?"

The hoarse voice sounded again, sullen.

Butler Lu hurriedly said, "However, we found some clues in Yunling Town."

Immediately, he told the clues that the messenger in black had detected, including Pei Daoyu and Qin Gengyun.

After listening to his words, there was a moment of silence behind the black curtain, and finally said:

"Let the fifth and the fourth go there. After all, Chang Chunzi is from my Chang family. If he doesn't live up to it, he should be taught by my Chang family. It's not the turn of others."

"Yes."

Butler Lu clapped his hands, hesitated, and asked in a low voice:

"Patriarch, the husbands and fathers of those female cultivators came to the door crying again, and I persuaded them to leave."

The skinny figure behind the curtain said indifferently: "Tomorrow, I will send someone to appease you. After all, they are all members of my Chang family."

"Yes! Patriarch, according to your instructions, yesterday we arrested two female cultivators from the Earth Spirit Root. They are all from outside the town and will not be noticed."

"Well, it takes me a month to absorb Yuanyin and Divine Consciousness once, and I will send another one at this time next month."

"Yes, the villain retire."

Butler Lu exited the room, exited the owner's courtyard, walked narrower and narrower, entered a forest, passed a hidden magic circle, and saw an iron gate in front of him.

He took out the key to open the door and went in, but he had already come to the underground of the Chang Family Immortal Mansion.

After walking down the dark ladder for a while, there were waves of women crying in front of them.

Butler Lu walked over, and a dungeon appeared in front of him.

The cell is divided into three rooms, all of which can accommodate dozens of people.

What was shocking was that there were more than a dozen female cultivators locked up in these three cells.

Most of these nuns are wearing ordinary dresses or robes, obviously not prostitutes, but women from good families.

At this moment, some of these female cultivators were weeping softly, some were blind-eyed, their hair was disheveled, and their bodies were covered with scars from whipping.

Steward Lu has long been used to it, so he went straight to a guard and asked calmly:

"Have these women stopped making trouble?"

The guard replied respectfully: "According to your instructions, those who dare to make noise have been greeted with a thorn whip, and it is much quieter now."

The stabbing whip is a torture tool specially used for torture monks. There are barbs on the whip, which can not only penetrate the body and cause trauma, but also whip the spiritual consciousness, making the monks miserable.

However, this instrument of torture was banned in Dongxiu a hundred years ago because it was too cruel.

It's just that he didn't expect to appear again in the secret dungeon of the Chang family.

Butler Lu said coldly: "The exercises practiced by the head of the family need to attract a female cultivator's vitality and spiritual consciousness every month. You should be careful not to hurt their spiritual consciousness."

"Yes!"

The guard bowed his hands, he hesitated, and said:
"Housekeeper Lu, the female cultivator we caught yesterday, we gave her a killing whip as usual, and everyone else was crying, but she didn't show any pain, I'm afraid it's a bit weird."

"Oh, which one?" Butler Lu was also a little surprised.

The ancient instrument of torture, the stabbing whip, is extremely cruel. Although it will not seriously injure the victim, it will stab the consciousness directly, causing the light one to howl and convulse, and the severe one to lose consciousness.

This is the first time Steward Lu has heard of the person who did not respond after being stabbed by the whip.

"That's the one."

The guard pointed to a prison cell, where more than a dozen female nuns were lying limply on the ground, and only one was sitting cross-legged, facing the wall.

She was wearing a plain white robe, with a straight figure, and her long hair combed into a single ponytail fell to her waist. Although there were bloodstains on her body, she had an upright and neat temperament.

Steward Lu narrowed his eyes slightly, "The one in Yunling Town?"

"Yes, it's her."

"Call her here, I have something to ask her."

"Yes."

The guard agreed and shouted at the nun:

"Hey, sit there, come here!"

But she turned a deaf ear to it and sat cross-legged as before, as if she was practicing.

Butler Lu smiled: "You can still practice? This female cultivator is a bit interesting."

The guard couldn't hold back his face, picked up the thorny whip, poured in spiritual power, the whip body was like a spirit snake, got through the fence of the cell, and slapped on the female nun's body.

The barbs on the whip immediately pierced into the flesh, bringing up a puddle of blood.

But the female cultivator remained motionless, as if she didn't feel any pain.

The guard was furious, he swung his arm, and beat the female cultivator continuously with the thorny whip. Blood stains soon appeared on the plain white robe, but the slender back was still straight.

"okay."

Butler Lu spoke, but the guard had to stop, and Butler Lu said to the nun with a smile:

"Fellow Taoist, I heard that you are from Yunling Town?"

The female cultivator still didn't move, and Steward Lu continued: "Yunling Town is not big, and there are only a handful of alchemists above the third rank. I don't know if you have heard of a third-rank alchemist named Qin Gengyun. "

Hearing this name, the female cultivator who was stabbed by the whip and remained motionless finally moved.

She turned her head, showing a heroic face, the facial features are not delicate, but there is a sunny temperament.

An orchid was embroidered on her left shoulder, and with that heroic face, it was even more heart-wrenching.

Seeing the nun's reaction, Housekeeper Lu's eyes lit up: "Do you know him?"

The woman shook her head, turned her head and continued to face the wall, practicing cross-legged.

"This bastard is so rude!"

The guard wanted to beat her with a whip again, but Housekeeper Lu said, "Okay, I just killed one a few days ago, and I haven't settled with you yet!"

"Steward Lu calm down, we will be careful."

The guards panicked and stopped, not daring to fight again.

Butler Lu took a deep look at the nun's back, and finally turned and left.

The guards also returned to their posts and stood still. The deep dungeon finally returned to silence, only the sobbing of women could be heard from time to time, but they were quickly scolded by the guards.

In the cell, the tall female cultivator opened her eyes, with an orchid-like smile on her face covered in blood and stains.

"Qin Daoyou, are you already a third-rank alchemist? That's great."

Two days later.

Yunling Town.

Choi Fung Street.

There is a brand new plaque hanging on the gate of a Lingmai Immortal Mansion, with three large characters written on it——

Qin He Garden.

This is the name Qin Gengyun gave his new family.

At this time, Qin He Garden was full of guests.

Qin Gengyun's former colleagues in Lingdanfang, the neighbors in Zhaiyuxiang, and the "sisters" that Qiu Zhihe knew from buying vegetables every day gathered together today to celebrate Qin Gengyun and his wife's housewarming.
