As they were talking, the screams in the secret room did not stop, and the screams became increasingly louder and louder.
"Baby, do you know what Lingchi is?"
In the secret room, the burly man tortured Lu Yunpeng while introducing the knowledge about torture with great interest.
"Why do you do this to me?"
"What grudge do I have against you?"
Lu Yunpeng wailed desperately.
"Hahaha, you and I have no hatred or resentment."
The sturdy man scraped another piece of flesh off Lu Yunpeng's body and said with a ferocious smile, "I just like to torture people."
"You bastard, my ancestors were..."
Lu Yunpeng was furious. He looked at his body and saw that his body was covered in blood and his body was completely covered with blood.
Fast forward to the end of August.
Today is another gathering day at Hongchen Pavilion.
There was a squeaking sound.
The door to the small courtyard opened and Wei An came out.
At this time, he put on the luxurious blue brocade robe, and his whole person had the aura of a noble prince.
Today he is going to attend the Hongchen Pavilion party.
Wei An has not been to Hongchen Pavilion for several months since Liu Piaopiao disowned her relatives.
This caused him to lose an important channel for collecting information.
Just think about it, when you don't have access to the aristocratic circle, it's almost difficult to get news from the upper world.
But considering that during this period, major events such as the Fengyuan Massacre and the destruction of Baishi Villa occurred one after another.
Wei An felt that it was very necessary to get in touch with the aristocratic circle and understand some developments.
"People can't be blind!"
Wei An sighed softly.
After getting off Pantian Mountain, we headed to Yanshoufang.
Wei An walked to the gate of Hongchen Pavilion, but he did not go in.
Can't get in either.
Hongchen Pavilion is not a place where cats and dogs can come and go casually.
After waiting for a moment, Wei An saw Li Xian and Hua Kongkuang coming hand in hand from a distance.
"Hey, isn't that my brother Zhang?"
Li Xian's eyes flashed, he quickened his pace, walked to Wei An, and laughed: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I thought you had given up on our circle."
Wei An pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "I have no choice but to forgive you."
Li Xian understood instantly and sighed: "Don't be too sad. After Liu Piaopiao's temperament changed drastically, she doesn't recognize anyone. Even our old friends have to stay away from her."
Hua Kongkong nodded and said, "Since she changed, I haven't dared to say a word to her until now."
While talking, the three of them stepped into Hongchen Pavilion.
With Li Siam clearing up the relationship, Wei An re-entered the aristocratic circle without any hindrance.
After entering the door, he looked around.
Suddenly, a person he hadn't seen for a long time appeared in his field of vision. It was Xu Gengdao from Tianzhenguan.
At this time, Xu Gengdao looked good, chatting and laughing, as if he had emerged from the shadow of failure.
Next to him, there was a drunken and burly man, who was not the murderous demon Shen Wusong.
"Xu Gengdao once competed for the "Sen Luo Wanxiang Divine Art" and "The Six Techniques of the Ice Emperor", but he should only be interested in the "Six Techniques of the Ice Emperor".
"And Shenwu Song is not interested in these two magical arts."
Wei An withdrew his gaze and crossed these two geniuses out of his spare list.
After a while, there was a sudden commotion in front of the gate.
Wei An turned his head and looked around, and saw a group of people strutting into Hongchen Pavilion. People around him were rushing to make way, nodding and bowing.
"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Meet Princess Weiyang!"
The two people walking at the front were Dong Xukun and Dong Weiyang.
The two people one step behind them were also old faces, Yan Renxiong and Yan Wenxiang.
Further on, Wei An saw the young sect leader of the Black Sect, Shen Turong!
"Hey, Shen Turong is one-armed..."
Wei An's eyes flashed and he immediately discovered that the sleeve of Shen Turong's right arm was empty.
At this moment, he thought of the night when Liu Piaopiao was attacked.
"The person who kidnapped Liu Piaopiao used the evil version of the Blood Jade Palm, and then I blew off an arm."
Wei An was almost certain that Shen Turong was the masked man who tried to kidnap Liu Piaopiao.
He walked towards Li Xian and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with Shen Turong's arm?"
Li Xian shook his fan and said with a smile: "I heard that Shen Turong was teasing Princess Weiyang's spiritual pet, and accidentally his arm was bitten off by the strange beast. Do you think it's tragic or not?"
"Been bitten off by a strange beast?"
Wei An raised his eyebrows slightly, and for a moment he was shaken by his judgment just now.
Did I think wrongly?
At this time, another acquaintance entered the Hongchen Pavilion. He was Chen Zhusheng, the son of Dazai Chen Guangbi.
"Brother Li..."
Chen Zhusheng came over, politely, and cupped his hands, "Hey, this isn't Brother Zhang. I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you not only obtained the Pangu bloodline, but also became a sixth-grade alchemist?"
Hearing this, Wei An's head trembled.
Chen Zhusheng, an outsider, actually knows so much about his affairs in Pantian Sect!
Wait, is it that person...
Wei An was speechless. He smiled and cupped his hands and said, "It's just a fluke. The blessings and misfortunes are unknown."
Chen Zhusheng laughed and said: "That's true, but isn't our life like this? It's either a blessing or a curse?"
Wei An continued: "Chen Caizi has great views."
While talking, Hua Kongkuang came over and asked in a low voice: "Brother Chen, is that true?"
Chen Zhusheng's expression changed slightly, he looked around, and then walked towards the back garden without saying a word.
Hua Kongkuang, Li Xian, and Wei An looked at each other and followed them in unison.
Four people came to the back garden.
Chen Zhusheng put his hands behind his back and said: "That thing is true, the 'Benevolent King' rebelled!"
Nioh?!
rebel?!
Wei An was shocked when he heard this. What is going on?
There are nine states in the world, one emperor and eight kings!
The Benevolent King is the head of the royal family of Qizhou, also known as the "King of Qi", but as his name suggests, he is very benevolent, righteous and virtuous, has a big heart and has done many good deeds, so he is respected by the people of the world as the Benevolent King.
Such a virtuous and respected benevolent king actually rebelled?
Hua Kongkuang asked quickly: "You are so good, why did you suddenly rebel?"
Chen Zhusheng shook his head and sighed: "What else could be the reason? Of course it was the old emperor who forced me to do it."
He spoke eloquently.
It turns out that there is a famous family "Nalan" in Qizhou, which is also a blood family and possesses the rare "Aoki blood".
The members of this family, because of their Aoki bloodline, all live a long life.
It was a good thing.
But some treacherous villain seemed to have figured out the old emperor's thoughts, and actually made slanderous remarks to the old emperor.
It is said that as long as you use Qingmu blood to refine elixirs, you can refine elixirs that can prolong life.
When the old emperor heard this, he was naturally very happy, and immediately ordered the benevolent king to capture all the Nalan clan alive and send them to the capital of God to make elixirs.
But!
The princess of Renwang is from the Nalan clan!
The King of Ren is related to the Nalan clan, so how could he do this to his father-in-law?
Therefore, the benevolent king wrote many times, begging the old emperor to be lenient.
But the old emperor didn't listen at all and ordered the king to send all the Nalan clan to the divine capital before September.
As you can imagine, Nioh immediately rebelled in anger.
"I heard that the benevolent king once knelt on the ground for seven days without eating or drinking, just begging the old emperor to change his mind, but it's difficult to handle the divine order!" Chen Zhusheng sighed.
Li Xian shook his fan quickly and said: "The King Ren is known as the most kind-hearted person in the world. I didn't expect that he was the first prince to rebel since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. I have to say this is really a huge irony."
Hua Kong thought for a moment and asked, "Qizhou is just south of Liangzhou. What will happen next?"
Chen Zhusheng was silent for a long time and said slowly: "I predict that the old emperor will appoint King Liang as the commander-in-chief of the rebellion, and our Liangzhou army will become the main force to conquer King Ren."
As soon as these words came out!
Li Xian, Hua Kongkuang, and Wei An all looked at each other in silence.
Damn it!
Eat melon and eat it on yourself!
The days of peace and happiness suddenly ended, and everyone was afraid that they would be involved in the flames of war.
"Damn, I can't stay in Liangzhou anymore..."
Wei An once again considered leaving Liangzhou.
However, once he leaves the Pantian Sect and is restricted by the Oath Gu, he cannot teach the skills to anyone at will. Then, all the skills belonging to the Pantian Sect cannot be simulated.
Afterwards, Wei An left the back garden and walked alone to the two white walls in the yard.
He hesitated for a moment, then picked up a wooden sign, wrote a few words, and hung it up.
"I would like to purchase a promise-destroying Gu. The price is negotiable. Please come to Room A15."
All things are interdependent. Since there is Oath Gu, there is also Destruction Gu, which can eliminate the constraints of Oath Gu.
After hanging up the wooden sign, Wei An walked into Wing Room A15 and waited.
Unexpectedly, someone came soon.
A strong smell of alcohol spread into the door, and the unique aroma of wine hit your nostrils.
Wei An felt a thump in his heart and raised his head suddenly.
Sure enough, the person who opened the door and walked in was the murderous demon god Wu Song!
"Why is it him again?"
Wei An felt that fate was really wonderful. He put up the sign twice, but the people he attracted were all Shenwu Song.
Wei An stood up, cupped his hands and said, "My friend, please sit down. Do you have any news about the promise-destroying Gu?"
Shenwusong looked at Wei An drunkenly, as if he didn't remember seeing him at all, and asked: "Why do you want to destroy Nuo Gu?"
At this moment, Wei An felt a strong killing intent coming towards him, and couldn't help but take two steps back and replied: "I'm just helping others find the promise-destroying Gu."
"Who is that person?"
Shenwu Song's eyes were cold, "I, Shenwu Song, hate people who break promises the most in my life. They are duplicitous and do not keep their word. They all deserve to be killed! Tell me who that person is, and I will kill him!"
Wei An's mouth twitched slightly and he said calmly: "I won't betray others casually, so I can't tell you."
"For you to associate with someone who doesn't keep his word means you are not a good person and should be killed!"
Shenwu stepped forward with a loose step, his steps were frivolous, and his body was swaying, like a drunken man who was drunk.
However, his movements were fast and fierce, and the alcohol on his body seemed to burn, turning into a flame-shaped force, wrapped around his fist, and burst out in a mighty way.
call!
Almost at the same time, Wei An was also ready to go. With a sway, he performed Shadow Step and transformed into a series of afterimages. He bypassed the Shenwu Pine and rushed out of the door.
boom!
Immediately afterwards, Jingomatsu's fist hit a phantom, and the terrifying fist instantly destroyed tables, chairs, walls, and the entire wing fell apart like a sandcastle.
"What's wrong?"
"Is anyone fighting?"
Everyone was startled, and turned around to look around, and soon found a thick plume of smoke billowing into the sky.
Immediately, figures came running towards him one after another.
Then he saw Shenwu Song standing in the ruins, his fists still in the posture of pounding out, and he was motionless.
"Kamigomatsu, are you drunk?"
Dong Xukun walked over and looked at the destroyed wing with a look of displeasure on his face.
This Hongchen Pavilion party was organized by him, and the first rule was that the use of force was strictly prohibited.
Jingo has broken the rules!
But the next moment, Shengosong suddenly fell down and lay on the ground, closing his eyes and enjoying a baby-like sleep.
"Ah this..."
Everyone was speechless. What can you say to someone who is drunk and crazy?
"I'm sorry, he got drunk and went crazy again. I apologize to everyone on his behalf."
Xu Gengdao trotted over, held up his hands repeatedly, and said with a smile: "I will compensate for all losses."
"Huh, what do you think this is?"
Dong Xukun was still angry, "Shenwu broke the rules and must be punished. He will be banned from attending the Hongchen Pavilion gathering for three months."
After that, he threw up his sleeves and left.
After seeing the fun, everyone dispersed one after another.
Wei An had already followed the flow of people and quickly left Hongchen Pavilion.
"I was almost about to reveal my strength in front of everyone." Wei An sighed.
In addition, he also discovered something strange.
The cultivation level of Shenwu Song is very weird!
When he clenched his fist, the force he released was only the fourth level, but the moment he punched, the power of the third level actually exploded.
Can a person's cultivation level change in an instant?
Or is that a talent unique to the Dionysian bloodline?
Fortunately, Wei An has made very rapid progress in "Treasure Calabash Sleeping Skill" during this period, and has already exceeded the fourth level.
He used the Nightmare Technique in time, and sprayed a stream of "Treasure Gourd Sleeping Gas" from his mouth, spraying it on Shenwu Song's face, causing him to fall into a deep sleep.
"Zhang Sanqiao..."
Suddenly, someone shouted behind Wei An. It was a woman's voice.
People were coming and going on the street. Wei An stopped, turned around slowly, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
The woman was wearing a white dress, with lotus flowers growing at every step, and her face was covered with a veil.
"Aunt Ouyang!"
Wei Anxin was surprised for the first time. He didn't expect to meet Cigu Ouyang here. He had inquired about Cigu Ouyang's whereabouts many times before, but no one knew her whereabouts. Today she suddenly appeared.
"It turns out to be Saint White Lotus. I didn't expect you to remember my name." Wei An suddenly showed a flattered expression.
Cigu Ouyang came over and said naturally and casually: "Are you free? I'll treat you to tea."
Wei An paused for a moment and said with a smile, "This is my honor."
After a while, the two entered a teahouse and sat opposite each other by the window.
Soon, the waiter brought tea.
"Saint, please have some tea."
Wei An picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
He wanted to see how Cigu Ouyang drank tea while wearing a mask.
Cigu Ouyang picked up the teacup and played with it for a while, then lowered her head, lifted the lower corner of the mask, brought the teacup to her mouth, and Gulu took a sip of tea.
Is this okay?
Wei An's expression did not change and he said, "The saint's warm invitation is not just to treat me to tea, right?"
Cigu Ouyang said slowly: "I heard that you are making elixirs for Li Yangchan?"
Wei Anxin suddenly thought. The fact that he was refining elixirs for Li Yangchan should be quite secretive, and only a few people knew about it.
But, how dare everyone else know about it?
He nodded and said: "Not bad."
Cigu Ouyang nodded and said, "I also want to ask you to help me make elixirs."
"Oh, what kind of elixir are you refining?"
"Whatever elixir you refine for Li Yangchan, you can refine it for me. Write me the medicinal ingredients and I will prepare them all. I will give you three times the price of the elixir."
Cigu Ouyang wrote lightly.
Wei An showed a troubled expression and waved his hands: "This is not good. I have an appointment with Senior Sister Li Yangchan..."
Before she finished speaking, Ouyang Cigu suddenly interrupted: "In addition to three times the cost of refining the alchemy, I can also give you a promise-destroying Gu."
Wei An narrowed his eyes slightly and said in surprise: "You know I'm looking for the promise-destroying Gu?"
Cigu Ouyang hummed softly: "Not only did I see what you wrote on the wooden sign, I also saw Shen Wusong walking into the wing room and you escaping later."
Wei An raised his eyebrows and said, "Saint, are you following me?"
Cigu Ouyang put down her tea cup and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm deliberately following you, I just happened to meet you and became a little curious about you."
"Curious about me?"
Wei An spread his hands and said, "How could I, Zhang Sanqiao, be so virtuous and capable as to allow the saint to treat me so kindly?"
Ouyang Cigu turned her head to look out the window, her voice was a little ethereal, she said: "It's just a woman's intuition. You were once with Liu Piaopiao, and then with Li Yangchan. But I believe that this alone makes me
A lot of people noticed you."
Wei An frowned and pretended to be stupid: "Please speak clearly."
Cigu Ouyang stood up slowly, leaned forward, stared deeply at Wei An, and said, "It would be fine if you were born into a noble family. However, you are so ordinary, but you can become friends with two extraordinary women one after another. It's really...
Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it now, sooner or later you will understand it, so if you think about it, then contact me.”
