Liang Ziweng, Shen Qing, Ma Xiong and several palace guards followed him into the back garden, but the little beggar had already disappeared.
Liang Zireng immediately saw Wanyan Kang arriving in a hurry, and hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Young prince, you are an old man and incompetent..."
Wanyan Kang shrugged and smiled: "Old Grandmaster, it's okay. I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was playing with the little white dog in the courtyard. I didn't expect that the dog barked and alerted you!"
Liang Ziweng's eyes turned.
Just now he clearly saw a figure leaping out from the Incense Villa, but he lived in the front yard after all, so he was a little far away. When he reacted, he had lost track of him.
However, the old gentleman saw through it without saying anything, and said lightly: "So that's how it is..."
Immediately he waved to Shen Qing and Ma Xiong: "If nothing happens, please come back."
Ma Xiong of Shenqing bowed to Wanyan Kang and then left.
Wanyan Kang looked at Liang Ziwen: "Old Grandmaster, you should go back and rest. It's too hot and I can't sleep, so I just took a walk in the back garden to cool off the heat!"
Liang Ziweng took a deep look at Wanyan Kang, presented the torch in his hand to him, clasped his fists and accepted the order before leaving.
…
Wanyan Kang saw that Liang Ziweng's figure was nowhere to be seen, and then slowly walked towards the rockery in the deepest corner.
The moon and stars are sparse, the insects are chirping in full swing, the wind is blowing gently, and the night is slightly cool.
Holding a torch, he wandered in front of the rockery for a long time before approaching. When he saw that a large area of weeds on the ground had been trampled down, he took a deep breath.
He carefully walked around the rockery. Even though he was very careful, his feet suddenly gave way and he fell down out of thin air.
He was knocked unconscious.
When I came back to my senses, I realized that this was actually a very deep cave.
The torch in my hand fell not far away, and the flame flickered weakly, so I quickly stepped forward to pick it up.
By the light of the fire, he discovered that there was actually a long and narrow tunnel ahead.
He gritted his teeth and bravely groped forward. He didn't take two steps when he saw a dark figure standing opposite him. He was about to scream in surprise when a pair of soft, boneless hands covered his mouth. The little beggar whispered: "Don't shout!"
Wanyan Kang composed himself and nodded.
The little beggar let go of his hand, and the two of them walked forward along the tunnel for more than ten meters. They saw an earthen door in front of them, and then what seemed to be a crypt.
Wanyan Kang's eyes flashed and his heart beat rapidly.
At this time, an eerie female voice came from the crypt: "Kang'er, is that you? Get out of here quickly... come in!"
He kept breathing heavily as he spoke, and by the time he said the last two words, he was already weak.
Wanyan Kang clenched his fists, still hesitating, but saw that the little beggar had already walked in.
Wanyan Kang also followed in.
It was brighter inside the crypt, because a small skylight was opened above for air flow, and the moonlight was projected in.
The little beggar's thin figure clung to the cave wall, holding his breath and concentrating as if facing a formidable enemy, and signaled Wanyan Kang to step forward.
Wanyan Kang looked around and saw a thin woman in black with disheveled gray hair sitting on a pile of straw in the middle of the cave five or six meters away.
The woman suddenly raised her head and looked over.
Her facial features are exquisite and quite beautiful, but her face is as white as a piece of paper, making it difficult to tell her age.
Moreover, his eyes were tightly closed, his eyelids were slightly sunken, and he was obviously completely blind.
Although she was a blind woman, Wan Yankang felt eerie and strange, with a chill all over her body.
"Who else?"
The woman said sharply.
The little beggar held his breath and stared at Wanyan Kang with sharp eyes.
Wanyan Kang had no choice but to bite the bullet and smile bitterly: "No... no one, only me."
"Kang'er, come here." The woman suddenly sighed quietly.
Wanyan Kang hesitated for a moment, then walked over as he was told.
But it was still about three meters away.
The woman sneered and raised her hand slightly. Wan Yankan felt a huge suction force coming towards him. He could not resist it at all, and his body fell into the woman's arms involuntarily.
The woman gasped, and like lightning, she stretched out her hand and pinched Wanyan Kang's wrist, pulling him tightly to her side, unable to move at all.
The woman was furious and said: "You little thief! You ungrateful little thief! I taught you my unique skills in vain... You haven't come to give me food for so many days. Are you trying to kill me?"
By this time, Wanyan Kang calmed down.
He said softly: "Who are you? I don't know you."
The woman became even more angry and laughed wildly, her voice as harsh as a night owl: "Little thief, can you say that again?"
"I'm sorry, I really can't remember who you are. I suffered from a strange illness some time ago and was in a coma for several days. When I woke up, I had no memory at all. I didn't even recognize my mother."
The woman sneered, but a wave of heat came from the hand that was holding Wanyan Kang's wrist tightly, rushing into Wanyan Kang's pulse. He felt numb and itchy like an electric shock.
The woman's expression changed and she said in surprise: "Little thief, why do you have no internal strength left at all?"
"Could it be that you really have a strange disease..."
"My memory and martial arts skills are all gone. I don't know what happened. Anyway, I don't have the power to restrain a chicken now." Wanyan Kang followed the woman's words and said.
This is not a lie.
The woman was silent for a long time, but her hands slowly relaxed.
Wan Yan was overjoyed, knowing that there was no danger after all.
"who?!"
"I!"
The little beggar walked in with his hands behind his back, his calm eyes swept over the woman's legs as she sat cross-legged, as if he saw that her lower body was paralyzed and unable to move, so he confidently said: "I didn't expect you to be such a murderous and evil demon.
His head ended up in Prince Zhao’s Mansion of the Kingdom of Jin. Did he go crazy while practicing martial arts? He really deserves it!”
The woman shouted sternly: "Who...are you? Tell me your name and surname quickly, otherwise you won't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Mei Rushuang, if you hadn't gone crazy, I really wouldn't be your match, young master, but now, what can you do to me?"
The little beggar sneered.
The woman was shocked and said in a trembling voice: "How...how do you know my maiden name?"
This was her name when she left home when she was young. Except for her master, not even her late husband knew it. How could outsiders know it?
The little beggar chanted proudly: "In the middle of the night, the cold moon is setting in Yingzhou, riding on the wind and riding a crane up to Penglai! My surname is Huang!"
Mei Rushuang's body trembled, "You...you..."
She immediately turned to Wanyan Kang and said in a trembling voice: "Kang'er, go get me some food!"
Wanyan made a loud sound and was about to get up when he suddenly felt a stream of cold air pouring in from the tiger's mouth of his left hand. It hit his body like water from the Yellow River, and almost instantly spread around the meridians of his body.
The circle formed and merged into his lower abdomen. He was trembling all over, and his whole body seemed to be frozen.
Then everything went dark and he fell unconscious.
I don't know how long it took, but he slowly woke up. It seemed that the sky was already bright, but both the blind woman in black named Mei Rushuang and the little beggar named Huang had disappeared in the cave.
trace.
"Little prince!"
Familiar anxious calls and noisy footsteps came from outside. Wanyan Kang was silent for a while and shouted: "I'm here!"
