Rent Affair

Chapter 38 The Identity of Wang Gandang
Walking out of the room to the first floor, the shop owner saw that Wang Gandang and I were following the three people, his face was shocked. How could he not know the identities of the three people, so he didn't dare to say anything, but just looked at me.

The three people in front of us brought the two of us into a room, the leader was reading something to the wall, only to see a door suddenly appeared on the wall, the man opened the door, bowed to let Wang Gandang and me go in.

Walking into the door, there is a long and narrow passage winding down behind the door. The walls of this passage are smooth, and there are oil lamps hanging on the stone walls on both sides. , Wang Gandang walked in front, I followed behind, and the three followed closely.

After walking for a long time, there was a gust of cool wind blowing in front of me, and after walking dozens of steps, an open space was reflected in front of my eyes.

Wang Gandang frowned, and said in a low voice, if you see He Laogui, don't speak.

I was puzzled, but I also knew that it was for my own good that he explained it like this, so I stopped asking.

Wang Gandang led me to continue walking forward. The three people behind him just stood in place and did not take a step forward. Passing through this open space, a scarlet gate stood in front of it. The gate was inlaid with copper ingots. There were ninety-nine and eighty-one people standing quietly in front of the door. Seeing that it was Wang Gandang, he bowed and opened the door.

As soon as the door was opened, I could only hear the sound of wailing. When the door was fully opened, I looked in. There were all kinds of torture instruments on both sides of the road, such as tiger stools, headband chairs... almost every torture instrument had a One person is being punished, and a person standing beside the instrument of torture, wearing a red robe and a red veil on his head, is executing the sentence.

When the executioners saw Wang Gandang, they all bowed and saluted, but Wang Gandang ignored him and just walked forward. After passing through this piece of purgatory, there was a palace. The luxury of this palace was even better than that of Qingyun Palace. .

Wang Gandang walked to the front of the palace, opened the door, the smoke was dense, looked in through the layers of smoke, and saw a person sitting on the front seat, drinking tea, looking carefully, he saw that the person was old, it seemed Like a rotten wood, his face is full of wrinkles.

Wang Gandang cupped his hands and saluted, and said, "The unfilial disciple has paid homage to the master!"

I was shocked, the person sitting on the front seat was He Laogui, never thought that he would be so old and look like this.

He Laogui took a sip of his tea, and asked in a cold voice, "You still know how to call me master, it seems that I didn't save your life in vain!"

"How dare I forget the grace of saving my life!" Wang Gandang replied, "But Qinchuan City is now a purgatory on earth. All of this is done by the master. I hope the master will stop in time to avoid being punished by heaven."

"God's punishment?" He Laogui put the teacup on the table and snorted coldly, "I am God, who dares to condemn me?"

This female ghost's tone is really serious, but in Qinchuan City, she is already covering the sky with one hand.

Wang Gandang saw that He Laogui was still obsessed with his obsession, and said, "Since the master insists on going his own way, this apprentice has no choice but to break up with you today, and we will cut off our friendship from now on!"

He Laogui laughed dryly when he heard this, "I'll save your life and teach you skills, but now it seems that it's not as real as raising a dog..." He waved his hand and sighed, "Forget it, this Qin Chuan There are thousands of my disciples in the city, and you are the only one, let's go!"

Wang Gandang cupped his hands and bowed again, straightened his back, and said, "There is one more thing, I ask Master to agree to it based on the old feelings."

He Laogui was puzzled, and murmured, "As long as it's not about me, it's okay to say it!"

I heard Wang Gandang say this, and I knew he was going to mention Xiaoying, but Xiaoying was caught as a bargaining chip, and he must get something from Chen Changan. This matter is related to He Laogui himself, how could he? agree?

Wang Gandang choked his throat and said, "The veteran disciple of the Qingmen was captured by the master. I wonder if the master will show her face and let her go?"

When He Laogui heard this, he slapped the table again, stood up, and said sharply, "I can do anything else, but this matter...is not negotiable!"

"Then don't blame the disciples for being rude!" Wang Gandang stared, with a chill flashing in his eyes, and clenched his hands into fists, as if he wanted to fight He Laogui.

He Laogui sensed the change in the breath in the air, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully, "Overestimating one's abilities!"

I saw that the two of them hadn't made a move yet, but they were ready to go. But Wang Gandang's abilities were all taught by He Laogui. When the two of them started fighting, it was like hitting a stone with an egg. How could Wang Gandang be his opponent? , if He Laogui is angered, let alone rescue Xiaoying, I am afraid that both of us will die here.

I tugged at the corner of Wang Gandang's clothes and persuaded him in a low voice, don't be impulsive and think long-term.

But when I opened my mouth, I felt a pair of eyes staring at me. I looked sideways and met He Laogui's sight. He said angrily, "Death!"

Before he finished speaking, he rushed straight at me. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Gandang stepped sideways to block me and shouted for me to run.

He Laogui and Wang Gandang started fighting, they were evenly matched, I saw He Laogui was nothing more than that, if I could help Wang Gandang at this time, it would not be difficult to subdue He Laogui, but I glanced around and disappeared How can I use a weapon.

He Laogui's offensive became more and more vicious, every attack directly hit Wang Gandang's vital points, so he had to step back step by step and try to defend...

Wang Gandang retreated steadily, seeing that I would not leave, he took off the shoulder strap and threw it to me, saying that he could use whichever one was convenient.

I took his shoulder strap and rummaged through it. Usually, Wang Gandang regarded it as a treasure, but when I searched it, I found nothing but socks, trousers, and the field mouse in the cage. , I didn't even find anything convenient, so I flipped through it again, and found a few photos from the bottom of the shoulder strap.

This photo shows a green snake with pustules on its head, spitting out a letter. I have seen this snake in the cave of Fangniugang in Qingniu Village before, and I have seen it in the books that Chen Changan read in my mind... But What is the meaning of this snake? Even Wang Gandang's shoulder strap has a picture of it.

I didn't have time to think about it. At this time, He Laogui forced Wang Gandang to the corner, with a ferocious face, and his hands clamped around his throat. Wang Gandang couldn't break free, his body was pulled up from the ground abruptly, and his face was flushed red. , He Laogui laughed and said, "Since you brought him, then I will let you live!" After that, he let go, and Wang Gandang collapsed to the ground.

He Laogui turned around and walked towards me, said with a smirk, "You sealed me once a year ago, I want to see if you still have the ability to seal me in that cold river again!"

I don't understand what he meant by saying that, he was sealed a year ago?I haven't even lived to a sixty-year-old, I smiled back and said, he admitted the wrong person, I have never seen him at all.

He Laogui laughed sharply, "It seems that if I change into this skin, you won't recognize me anymore, so I'll show you my real face..."

As soon as the words fell, He Laogui howled suddenly, only to see a woman separated from his flesh, He Laogui's body stood upright on one side, the woman's red skirt reached her knees, and her long hair fell down to her waist like a waterfall , with delicate eyebrows and eyes, but showing a bit of coquettishness, the woman stretched her muscles and said with a sneer, "Do you recognize me now?"

"Mr. Wan..."

I said it casually, and there was a sharp pain in my head, and the image of Wan Jun lying in the coffin, bloody all over, and dyed his white dress red appeared in my mind.

Wang Gandang looked at me with his mouth wide open, he couldn't believe that I knew this female ghost.

Seeing that I recognized her, Jun Wan laughed sadly, "One year ago, I went looking for black-headed snakes for you, but you actually sealed me under the river, and you will settle this account today!"

After saying that, a raging fire ignited all over Wan Jun's body, covering her in it, revealing her murderous aura, and rushed towards me.

I felt the true energy in my body rushing out along the blood vessels, and approached my chest. In the blink of an eye, Jun Jun was one step away from me. Resisting with anger, she turned back with strength, causing her to take a few steps back.

Jun Wan was surprised, and murmured, "How is this possible?" Seeing this scene, she dared not act rashly.

The two of us looked at each other and stood silently.

Wang Gandang stood up, walked to my side, and said to Wanjun, "Times have changed, so why should we remember the past so much? It's better to drink a cup and forget each other in the rivers and lakes, and talk about the wind and rain with a smile. From now on, we will be like strangers, and we will no longer hate each other. .”

"Delusion!" Wan Jun replied in a strict voice, "I want him to pay the price he deserves for what he has done!" After she finished speaking, she rushed towards me like crazy.

Wang Gandang knew that I was able to withstand that blow just now, it was purely a coincidence, Jun Jun was too envious of hatred, so he didn't see this, but I'm afraid I'm not so lucky for this attack!
Wang Gandang stood in front of me, and was about to block the attack for me. It can be seen that Jun Wan's attack seems to have used all the strength in his body. With Wang Gandang's ability, he might be killed here with just one blow. Thinking about it, I pushed Wang Gandang away and punched out. When I punched, a wave of true energy came out, and a wave of air hit Wanjun's chest. There was an explosion of air, and she fell to her knees. , spit out a mouthful of dark blood.

I went up to help her up, but as soon as I stretched out my hand, she slapped my hand away, "Even if I die at your hands today, I don't need your pity!"

What kind of resentment, what kind of hostility is this, that even after a Jiazi has passed, I still hold the grudge so much? What is the connection, why did she keep saying that I sealed her in the water.

Just as I was about to ask, she interrupted me and said, "Take Xiaoying away, don't let her end up like me!" As she spoke, she waved her sleeves, and a wooden door appeared behind her seat. She said that Xiaoying was behind this wooden door and asked me to take her away and never come to Qinchuan again. After speaking, she stood up tremblingly, put her hands on her chest, and walked out of the palace.

I looked at her lonely back, just like the back in my mind, but I knew that the back was similar, but I couldn't go back to the past in my memory...
