After a long time, Zhou Yumo let out a long breath, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his tense body relaxed, lying weakly in the stone trough.
Zhao Ran said: "You screamed too loudly, making it difficult for me to do anything."
Zhou Yumo said: "Do you blame me? It hurts!"
"Besides, your voice is really weird..."
"Really? It really hurts..."
Zhao Ran said: "I'm sorry, I should have been gentler. But this thing is wrapped too tightly around your thigh, and it can't be broken without force."
Zhou Yumo said: "I knew you had a way."
"Actually, Uncle Lin can do it. It can almost be done at the master level, as long as you have a good magic weapon."
Zhou Yumo said: "I promised you that only you can touch my body, and no one else can."
Zhao Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "That's your teacher, a female cultivator."
"Don't worry about men and women, no one can do it, not even the teacher!"
Zhao Ran was immediately speechless and felt an indescribable emotion. While being moved, a cold wind blew through his heart, and he suddenly felt a little sad.
Zhou Yumo flipped up her hair, pointed at the magic weapon in Zhao Ran's hand and asked, "What kind of treasure is this? Can it break spider silk?"
Zhao Ran gave her the finger cot: "Exquisite finger cot."
Zhou Yumo said: "Give me the good stuff?"
Zhao Ran scratched his head: "This is... a gift. I am going to give it to you in person... If you want to exchange it for another one, I will give you another one. Let me think about it..."
Hearing that it was a betrothal gift, Zhou Yumo suddenly lost interest and threw it back to Zhao Ran: "No more!" Then he pointed at the thing he had just picked and said: "Bring it to me quickly."
Zhao Ran handed over the thing in his hand that was like a bandage with locks and golden bells on both ends. Zhou Yumo took it and said with hatred: "This harmful thing sucks my mana every day. Without it, I would have broken through a long time ago."
Got it!"
Zhao Ran asked curiously: "What on earth is it?"
"Half a year ago, I met a pipa player on Green Bamboo Island in the East China Sea. I always felt that I knew her before, as if I had seen her somewhere before, so I followed her for a while. This woman was full of charm and behaved very strangely..."
Zhao Ran was stunned and asked: "Is this person called Chun Niang or Wan Niang? Is her surname Hu?"
Zhou Yumo asked curiously: "You know her? I don't know what her name is. She went around recruiting monks on the island, saying that she was going to a place called Yingzhou, and she also said that a silver mine was discovered in Yingzhou. I also heard about Yingzhou.
As I said, she was in a far away place. I knew that you needed a lot of money to do things, so I followed her with some thought. But after following her for three days, I couldn't tell the depth of her cultivation, so I became more and more curious.
"
"Yingzhou? Where is it?" Zhao Ran immediately took out the chart and asked Zhou Yumo to point it out.
Zhou Yumo first identified the location of Ling'ao Island, and then measured it in the northeast direction: "I don't know exactly where it is. I only heard sea travelers mention that starting from Ling'ao Island, it takes more than half a month by boat with a favorable wind.
"
Zhao Ran drew a circle on a rough location with a pen and said, "Tell me, what happened next?"
Zhou Yumo said: "Curiosity is curiosity - to be honest, I don't know why I am so curious about this female cultivator, but the East China Sea is very chaotic. You beat me today, I will beat you tomorrow. Recruiting people on Lvzhu Island is a common thing. Lvzhu Island
Bamboo Island is known as the largest island in the East China Sea. There are thousands of casual cultivators on the island, and there are many manpower. Just when I was not going to follow, she came with two more companions, one was an old man and the other was a fool..."
Zhao Ran patted the stone wall and said: "Old Man Hu! Hu Chunniang! Hu Balang! Yu Mo, you must have seen them. When I first entered Wuji Yuan, these three guys were playing porcelain at the entrance of Wuji Yard... That's what porcelain is.
Blackmailing people..."
Zhou Yumo covered his mouth and chuckled: "I know, I heard from Senior Sister Song that when you came back from Xixia, you met Zhang Tengming from Longhu Mountain."
Zhao Ran scratched his head: "If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten... Continue talking about Old Man Hu and the three of them. The reason why I returned to Daming from Xixia was because I met them in the brothel. That Hu Chunniang sang in front of me. You said
Can I not panic..."
Zhou Yumo thought thoughtfully: "So you often went to brothels in Xixia."
"Hey, you also know what I did when I went to Xixia. I kept my head on my head at all times. I went in and out of brothels to get acquainted with powerful people and to provide cover. I ran the brothel and I would never make that kind of mistake.
…”
"Okay, let's see how anxious you are. What next?"
"I felt something was wrong at that time, so I hurried back. Later, I encountered another Meng Yanzhen case, which also involved a Wan Niang who played the pipa. I always suspected that this Wan Niang was Chun Niang. By the way, there was also the previous Ling Niang.
Chunfeng of Jigong, Guanyun and Taoist Xiaoyao, they were imprisoned in the capital. When they were interrogated last year, they also gave the description of the person who set up the trap. I suspect it was Old Man Hu and the three of them."
"So you've met them so many times?"
"That's right, go ahead and tell me, did you take action later?"
"After the old man and the fool came, I didn't plan to follow, but it was too late and they discovered it. In fact, they should have been discovered long ago, but I didn't know it. The fool rushed up and wanted to attack me.
Old Man Hu also grabbed me and told me that it is not easy to practice the Heartless Sword. Don't let the children take action, otherwise they will accidentally beat me to death. I was still laughing at that time, but as soon as the woman took action, I was stunned by the sound of the music she played.
It’s hurt. She hit me with this sea pearl lock, saying she wanted to give me a little pain to stop me from relying on my own cultivation. And it was very annoying. She hit me on purpose..."
Zhao Ran frowned: "It turns out that this family of three is so powerful that even with your strength, you can't beat them. That's at least the Great Master Refiner Realm!"
Zhou Yumo said angrily: "What is the Great Master Refiner Realm? He is a great demon in disguise!"
Zhao Ran was stunned for a moment: "Demon?"
"I also guessed it. After asking around a lot, I found out that they came from Qingqiuhai."
"Qingqiu Hai?"
"It is a sea area in the Demonic Hell Sea. It is said to be the place where the ancestor Linghu practiced. The ancestor Linghu is also known as the Lord of Qingqiu. He is a great demon who has transformed into a second form. You said they came out of the Qingqiu Sea.
What is it if it’s not a fox demon?”
"It makes sense, Hu, isn't he just a fox? Isn't this old man Hu the ancestor of the spirit fox?"
"Who knows? Maybe."
"Hey, back then I actually... scolded and scolded me. I don't know who gave me the courage..."
"Didn't you also say that when you were in Wujiyuan, you were shouting at the great master of micro-manifestation? You also forced the great master to clean up for you. Who do you think gave you the courage?"
"That's right. It's true that the ignorant are fearless. Thinking back to those days, I feel ashamed and proud at the same time!"
Zhou Yumo rolled his eyes at him: "Are you still embarrassed to be proud?"
Zhao Ran smiled and shook his head: "Don't be too curious in the future. They just give you some hardships. You are already blessed with great fortune."
"So I said, every time my life hangs by a thread, your luck will protect me."
"The things have been taken down, do you still have any problems breaking through?"
"Every time I look for you, there will be no problem breaking through!"
"Okay...what to do with this...Sea Spider Lock?"
"This thing is very evil and absorbs mana. I've suffered enough in the past six months. It's ruined!"
"How to destroy it?"
"Go to the eye of the fire in the back mountain and throw it down."
"Okay, let me handle it..."
"You have to be really ruined. Don't leave this harmful thing in the world."
