Although Xiaodie was wearing a ghost mask, Qi Ning clearly saw that Xiaodie had tears in her eyes.

"You are Xiao Diaoer..." Xiaodie choked: "You are really Xiao Diaoer."

Qi Ning knew that although he had proved to Xiaodie that he was Xiao Diaoer, he did not see his face after all, and Xiaodie might not have believed it completely, at least he still had a little suspicion in his heart. However, seeing Yangling at this moment was certain that he was sure. Although he had been separated for more than a year, Xiao Diaoer's appearance was naturally deeply embedded in Xiaodie's mind.

Qi Ning wanted to hold Xiaodie in his arms immediately, but his hands were locked by iron shackles, which was not convenient, for fear that the iron shackles would hurt Xiaodie. What's more, Xiaodie is an uninformed girl's house. She hugged her by herself, but she was afraid that she would even scare the girl and said softly: "Why are you wearing a mask?"

Xiaodie hurriedly said, "Everyone on the mountain wears masks and doesn't know each other."

"So that's it." Qi Ning sneered, "Dixian pretended to be a god and was a ghost..." He paused slightly and sighed, "But I want to thank her, she also saved you."

"I don't know who Ksitigarbha is." Xiaodie said softly, "But... But the boy said that we are all blessed by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and should respect Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Little Diaoer, why did you... offend them?"

"I will explain it to you in detail when I look back." Qi Ning smiled and said, "We won't take it off with the Lao Shizi mask."

Xiaodie hesitated for a moment, finally raised her hand and took off the mask.

The one who appeared in front of Qi Ning was a pretty face, with no delicate facial features, and a little thin face, but his eyes were very watery. Compared with the stunning beauties of the Red Dan and Gu Qinghan, Xiaodie's appearance was naturally very different. Even her skin was a little yellow, far from being as tender and fair as those beauties. Qi Ning knew that Xiaodie had suffered a lot, and she felt pity and said softly: "When we leave here, I will make you have no worries about food and clothing in this life, and no one can bully you."

Xiaodie smiled sweetly, with tears in her eyes, and she whispered: "When I see you, I... I'm not afraid of anything."

Qi Ning held Xiaodie's hand and whispered: "Where is that Mr. Li being locked up?"

"Come with me." Xiaodie hurriedly: "He is not far from here." He turned around and led Qi Ning into the stone path. The stone path was very narrow, and could barely walk by two people side by side. It was also very dark inside. However, Xiaodie was extremely familiar with the path here. After walking about thirty steps, a fork appeared on the left. Xiaodie took Qi Ning in and walked in less than twenty steps forward. Then he walked out of the stone path and entered a stone chamber. The stone chamber was much smaller than the stone chamber before Qi Ning. There was a stone wall in front and there was a small hole for food below. Qi Ning knew that Li Xigong was behind the stone wall, so he hurried up and whispered: "Senior Li, I am Qi Ning, are you okay now?"

The voice of Duke Li Xi was soon heard from inside: "Thank God, you finally succeeded. I hope you can escape from prison day and night."

"Thank you for your advice, so that I can restore my skills." Qi Ning said gratefully: "I will find a way to get you out now. You can retreat and don't let the gravel be hurt."

"Let's go!" Li Xigong said in a deep voice: "Qinning, I have asked Miss Xiaodie that this prison room is very close to the exit. Once there is too much noise, it will be easily discovered outside. Don't act rashly."

Qi Ning suddenly realized that the prison he was in was deep into the abdomen of the mountain, and it was a little far from the entrance of the cave. It was barely heard by the outside, but it was already very close to the exit outside. As Li Xi Gong said, if the stone wall was opened with the energy of heaven and earth, the sound of shaking and cracking would be easily noticed by the outside.

"Just come out, don't worry about me anymore." Li Xigong sighed: "My limbs have been abandoned and my meridians have begun to shrink. Even if you save me, I will not live long. At most, the deadline will be over."

Qi Ning frowned and said, "Senior Li, don't think so. Save you. I will send someone to the capital immediately. Miss Tang will get your true teachings and have excellent medical skills. You will definitely be cured."

"Hahaha, that little girl has received my true teachings." Li Xigong smiled and said, "Actually, I really miss her. She has been with me since she was a child. If I knew that I was dead, I would be very sad."

"Yes, if Senior Li makes a mistake, I will be sorry to Miss Tang." Qi Ning said: "Senior Li, I will go out to deal with the two guards first, and I will save you when I come back."

Mr. Li Xi shouted and said, "I heard from me that this is the nest of Ksitigarbha. Once they are alarmed, no one can leave. Even if you save me, I am a useless man, but I will be in the way." He sighed, "Forget it, at my age, I have already taken life and death lightly and I don't want to make trouble anymore."

"Senior Li, you...!"

"I have two things to tell you." Li Xi said justice: "The first thing is to ask you to take good care of Nuoer in the future. Her mother died early, and Yin Wuji's life and death are unknown. That child is also miserable, but she is pure and kind-hearted and the world is dangerous. You must protect her. After seeing her, don't tell her about my life and death, just say that I travel around the world, and one day I will go back to see her and let her not worry about it."

"Senior Li...!"

"The second thing is the martial arts of the great master." Li Xigong interrupted without waiting for Qi Ning to say more, "I knew that the great master's martial arts cultivation reached its peak in his early years. When I saw it that day, it was indeed amazing." He paused slightly and said, "But such martial arts violated the laws of heaven, it will definitely cause great harm to people. I can't figure out what harm it will be, but you should not embark on that path in the future."

Qi Ning thought that Mr. Li Xi was indeed very good. He saw that he would suffer from the great master's realm. He whispered: "Don't worry, senior, I know how to do it."

"That's great." Li Xigong's voice was quite weak: "There is one more thing, but... it is the 72 caves of the Miao family. You are favored by the emperor and have a high position and power in the future. I hope you can take care of the Miao family more...!" Then he sighed: "Forget it, the Miao family is always in life, and they can always turn bad luck into good luck..."

"Senior, I will do what you explain." Qi Ning said solemnly: "But I must rescue you."

"You don't understand, the Holy Church has fallen apart. Although I have retired from the church for a long time, I have secretly vowed to live and die with the Holy Church when I joined the church. "Mr. Li Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Ayun is no longer here, and I don't have to spend all my time saving her. Moreover, I am about to die. Even if I live for a month, I can't save anyone. Although Nuoer's medical skills have been taught by me, I can't do anything about this situation..." After a moment of silence inside, Qi Ning hurriedly said, "Senior Li, what's wrong with you, why don't you speak?"

"I have taken Kuaihuo Powder." Li Xigong said softly: "Happiness Powder is in the abdomen, and I can't help but die without pain."

"Happy and happy?" Qi Ning's body shook and said in a lost voice: "Senior, why do you... why do you do this? You are lying to me. You are locked up inside. Dizang has already searched his body. You... you can't bring poison in."

"Silly child, I don't have other skills. It's easy to carry poison on my body." Li Xigong said in a gentle voice: "In the past few days, my meridians have a little bit of shrinking. If you live one more day, I will suffer a day more. In fact, I wanted to take poison and commit suicide a few days earlier to avoid torture. I just thought that you might be able to use it, so I forced myself to hold on. Now that you have escaped, I will relieve myself...!"

Qi Ning knew that what Mr. Li Xi said was most certainly true, but he didn't want to drag him down. He felt sad, tears burst out from his eyes, and he choked and said, "Senior Li, you have helped me several times, but......!"

"You don't have to cry for me." Li Xigong's voice became weaker and weaker, but his voice was very gentle: "I have saved countless people in my life, but I have not killed a good person in vain. I should not go to hell after death. Good boy, remember, when I am alive, save more people, kill less, treat Nuoer well...!" I murmured to myself: "Nuoer, Master... Go, you must... be fine..."!" After that, there was no sound.

Xiaodie's tears also rolled down her cheeks, knowing that Li Xigong had died of poison.

Qi Ning knelt on the ground, kowtowed three heads at Duke Li Xi behind the stone wall, and whispered: "Senior, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Tang and make her safe." He kowtowed three more heads.

Xiaodie knelt down obediently and kowtowed. Qi Ning got up and said to Xiaodie: "Xiaodie, I have another friend to rescue him. Tell them where they are locked up. I will go by myself. Find a place to hide it first, wait..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Xiaodie's hand and pressed it towards the wall at the entrance of the stone path. Xiaodie was caught off guard and was shocked. He was about to ask what happened. Seeing Qi Ning's expression was solemn, he shook his head slightly, and he didn't dare to speak. Soon, Xiaodie heard a voice from the stone path: "Boy, that old guy is here. There are people delivering food every day, and he can't starve to death."

Qi Ning felt a little nervous. He didn't expect that someone would come in at this moment. He didn't come early or late. But he came at this time. He pressed his back against the stone wall beside the entrance of the cave, but he was already on guard. Soon, he saw a man coming in from the entrance of the cave first, heading straight to the stone wall, and then followed someone from the entrance of the cave. Qi Ning recognized it at a glance that it was the treasure-carving boy.
