A violent cough broke the silence in the Yaochi meeting hall.
There was a trace of blood on the palm of the old man's hand as he covered his mouth and coughed. The whole person looked increasingly depressed and weak, and the lifeless energy in his body was very strong, as if he was going to die at any moment.
When several deacons and other Yaochi disciples present saw this, their expressions changed and they recovered from the matter of the marriage certificate.
"Xu...Mr. Xu, how are you? Why are you so injured?" At this moment, Bai Cailing no longer cared about the marriage certificate, and hurriedly supported the old man and asked.
Although Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude stole Yaochi's treasure pavilion, Xu Que also saved her life back then, so Yaochi didn't really care about it. At most, they would teach Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude a lesson when they found her.
They are just two thieves, so they will not anger Xu Que.
Now the old man who calls himself Xu Que's father is here, and everyone is very polite to him. They just want to ask what the marriage contract is about. Unexpectedly, he actually takes out a marriage contract, and there is Bai Cailing's soul aura on it. This
This means that the marriage document was indeed signed by Bai Cailing.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, including Bai Cailing herself.
However, the old man's sudden cough brought them all back to their senses. When they saw the blood on the old man's palm, they all couldn't help but be a little shocked.
Although this old man is only half-immortal, he can be regarded as half-stepping into the realm of immortals. Why is he injured to such a degree, and he looks like he has an old illness, and there is a strong sense of death in his body.
, always devouring the old man’s longevity.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, it's the same old problem!" At this time, the old man slowly recovered, waved his hand, and said with a slight smile.
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Bai Cailing didn't continue to ask, her eyes fell on the gold paper, pursed her lips and said: "Mr. Xu, is this marriage certificate given to you by Xu Que? In fact, I signed it back then.
It’s just an IOU, but..."
"Yes, yes, yes, Xu Que sent it home, but don't worry, I will never let this treacherous son ruin you. I think this marriage certificate is invalid!" The old man said immediately, and at the same time, he pulled the gold paper hard and thought
Tear it into pieces.
But after the gold paper was torn in half, it was restored again.
"Mr. Xu, I'm afraid this is useless. If I'm not wrong, this marriage contract is the condensed form of Xu Que's soul and Tao Yun. He has to be the one to cancel this marriage contract." Bai Cailing shook her head, her face filled with emotion.
He said with a helpless smile.
She has basically figured it out now. It was Xu Que who tricked her into telling her that it was an IOU. In fact, she didn't look at it and signed it directly. However, she never expected that there was a condition hidden on it.
If the artifact is not returned on time, you must pledge yourself to it.
"This..." When the old man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of self-blame.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He raised his fist, hit his chest hard, and said with regret and guilt: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault! You have taught such an unfilial son, everyone in Yaochi, and the saint, please kill me.
Let me use this old life to pay for all the mistakes of that traitor Xu Que!"
"Ah? Mr. Xu, wait a minute, don't do this!" Bai Cailing was startled and hurriedly stopped the old man.
Many women present also stood up. The old man himself was full of lifeless energy and was very sick. He had half of his foot in the coffin. If he continued to hit himself like this, he would probably die here after a few more punches!
"Mr. Xu, it's okay. I believe this marriage certificate is just a joke by Xu Que. Don't take it seriously. Let's go and have a rest first. We will help you find Xu Que." Bai Cailing appeased the old man and at the same time also
He waved to a female disciple and asked her to take the old man to rest.
The old man seemed to be immersed in grief and self-blame, shaking his head repeatedly, with tears streaming down his face, and allowed the female disciple to lead him out of the meeting hall.
His weak body seemed to be unable to walk. Even with a cane, he might fall down at any time.
The female disciple felt distressed when she saw it. She hugged the old man tightly and slowly helped him away.
In the meeting hall, several Yaochi deacons and many female disciples watched the old man leave, and their expressions gradually became serious.
The oldest middle-aged woman among them, her eyes fell on Bai Cailing: "Holy girl, this matter is not trivial. No matter what, you can't keep the marriage certificate, otherwise once it gets out..."
"I know!" Bai Cailing nodded and gritted her teeth: "The most urgent task is to find Xu Que. That guy is so shady that he lied to me like this."
"It seems like there really isn't a good person in their Zhatian Gang. Whether it's that dog, that old man, or that Xu Que, they are really hateful!" the middle-aged woman said with a gloomy face.
Bai Cailing smiled helplessly: "Deacon Lin, this matter is actually my fault. If I hadn't made a grudge bet with Xu Que, I wouldn't have been deceived by him. That's all. Let's find that guy first."
"That's fine! This bastard really has no conscience. His father at home is seriously ill, but he has never gone back to visit him. Instead, he asked the seriously ill old man to come all the way out to see him, just to have a meal with him.
Rice." The middle-aged woman said angrily.
Bai Cailing also nodded with deep sympathy: "On this point, that bastard Xu Que really went too far. However, I just checked the old man's injuries. It was very extraordinary. He was completely covered by a terrifying death aura.
, I’m afraid even the Holy Mother can’t save her life.”
"Oh, a poor old man! Let's send someone to give him some medicine later. Even if it doesn't work, it's okay to show your love!" The middle-aged woman sighed.
…
At the same time, in a wing room in Yaochi Holy Land.
The old man was sitting on a chair, poured a cup of tea, and drank it leisurely. There was no trace of the sick look on his face, and the sly smile hanging on the corner of his mouth undoubtedly exposed his true nature.
identity!
"Hehe, Ben Bi Sheng is still very clever! Pretending to be his father, even though he is an orphan without a father or mother before or after time travel, Ben Bi Sheng's acting skills are still online!" Xu Que said to himself with a smile in his heart.
With.
When he decided to come to Yaochi, he used immortal goods to disguise himself as a puppet and transformed himself into an old man. In order to make the acting more realistic, he did not hesitate to use the ancient life and death disk to introduce a large amount of death energy into his body, transforming an old man into a twilight person.
The performance was lifelike.
But now he felt a little bored. He thought that if Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude did bad things in Yaochi, Yaochi would definitely be angry with the Zhaotian Gang, but he didn't expect that the other party was so polite and reasonable. It was probably because of this.
Jiang Hongyan and Bai Cailing fell in love.
So Xu Que felt uncomfortable and stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person. Since the other person was so polite, there was no need for him to stay here and play tricks on them. It would be better to find an opportunity to leave and find Er Gouzi to settle accounts with Duan Jiude!
"Boom!"
At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Come up...cough, come in!" Xu Que responded.
Squeak!
The door of the room was pushed open, and a young and beautiful female disciple of Yaochi brought a elixir. At the same time, she said: "Mr. Xu, the saint wants you to have a good rest. Please come to the conference hall tomorrow to discuss finding Xu."
What’s missing, there may be some clues about his traces!”
