Chapter 601: Entrusting an orphan to someone else? No need
The atmosphere in the Jingui Martial Arts School was depressing and silent, like a haunted house.

Knock, knock, knock. After a long time, an apprentice came to open the door. "Who is it?"

"I'm traveling around Daqian Martial Arts School and I'm here to visit Master Pei."

Upon hearing Zhou You's name, the door opened a crack. The apprentice inside took a look, confirmed his identity and happily opened the door.

"Master Zhou, you are here. Master is in a bad mood."

Zhou You waved his hand and said, "Lead the way."

He noticed that the apprentice was so hungry that his face was pale and his body was thin, and he walked unsteadily. As soon as he entered the outer courtyard, he saw rows of corpses covered with white cloth placed in the corner of the wall.

Many apprentices were so hungry that they had no strength left. They leaned against the pillars and steps, tearing off the calluses and dead skin on their palms and chewing them in their mouths.

There were large water tanks everywhere, with a few live fish in them, swimming around with their heads swaying.

The apprentices only dared to drink water from the tank with live fish. Once the fish turned upside down, the tank would be useless.

The situation is not optimistic!

Soon, Zhou You saw Pei Li in the inner courtyard.

After not seeing you for many days, Pei Li looks much more haggard, his lips are dry and pale, and the corners of his mouth are cracked. This is due to both lack of water and getting angry!

"Master Zhou, you've come at the right time. I have something to ask you."

Pei Li invited Zhou You to sit down, "It's not convenient in the hall, so I won't invite you to have tea."

Zhou You smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? The water is already boiled, so why should I be afraid that he will poison me?"

"You don't know, my martial arts gym has been turned into a drug den. Everything that enters the mouth is poisonous."

Pei Li laughed at himself, "To be honest, I haven't eaten a single grain of rice for three days and three nights."

It turns out that in the Jingui Martial Arts School today, even drinking a sip of water is life-threatening.

Wells and water tanks are all severely affected by poisoning. Rice, flour, grain, and oil will be ruined if a poisonous insect gets in.

Fruits and vegetables grown in the fields are also not acceptable because the poison weapons will poison the dew.

What if they are lively chickens, ducks, pigs, or sheep? What if we kill them directly and drink their blood and eat their meat?
That won't work. The people inside the Ten Thousand Poisons Secret Shop have already played with poisons to many different degrees. Poisonous insects live in the bodies of livestock, forming a symbiotic relationship. Once the livestock are slaughtered, the poisonous insects die, and the remains turn into a deadly poison that flows throughout the body, making the meat inedible.

There are also mixed poisons, delayed poisons, etc., which are hard to guard against.

Many people were poisoned to death in the Jingui Martial Arts School, but they learned their lesson and stopped eating and only drank water. They even breathed carefully, which helped them avoid being ambushed.

But seeing that everyone in the inner and outer courtyards was so hungry that they were staggering, they wouldn’t be able to hold out for long.

Any poisonous henchman can easily sweep the martial arts gym inside and out and wipe out the entire family.

"…The reason why he hasn't taken action yet is probably because he is deliberately torturing us."

Pei Li smiled bitterly and called a young man over, "Master Zhou, you came at the right time. Although my disciple's talent is not as good as your disciple Qi Qingdi, I am also a rare talent."

"I would like you to take him in."

This is a trust for an orphan!

Zhou You recognized the young man as Pei Li's most respected disciple, Pei Baisi.

Pei Li's respect and cultivation of Pei Baisi is no less than Zhou You's towards Qi Qingdi, and he values ​​him more than his own son.

Now that he has been entrusted to Zhou You, it is obvious that he has determined that the Jingui Martial Arts School is about to collapse and he wants to find a place for his disciple.

To be fair, Zhou You's Daqian Martial Arts School has connections with the Yaowang Sect, as well as the Gu Li and Yin Sanfen connections, so he has enough confidence to withstand the aggressive attack of Viper Lun this time.

So, when Pei Li saw Zhou You coming to visit, he immediately handed his disciple Pei Baisi to him.

"It's not that time yet!"

Zhou You persuaded. Pei Li waved his hand, "I am the person involved, how can I not know that I have reached the end of my rope, Master Zhou, in a few days, you will not be able to see me when you come, and you can barely collect my body."

"The Ten Thousand Poisons Secret House is indeed a big and powerful place. There is no need for Du Taiyue to come personally. A single Viper Manlun has forced me to have no way to survive and to wait for death behind closed doors.
"Master Zhou, for our friendship, please go out the back door and take Baisi away.

Seeing the sincere feelings between him and his disciple, Zhou You shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about this for now."

Pei Li's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. The worst situation had occurred, and Zhou You was unwilling to lend a helping hand.

As expected, reality is cold and cruel. No one would take the initiative to take trouble upon themselves. So how could we know that Fu Manlun would not use this as an excuse to cause trouble?

"Forget it, Master Zhou, it's already precious that you came to see me at this critical moment."

"I don't dare to ask for too much, please..."

With a bang, he couldn't continue speaking as Zhou You's actions interrupted his words.

A bloody cloth bag fell on the table, and the fresh blood flowed along the lacquered table and dripped onto the ground.

"Look what I brought you?"

Pei Baisi on the side quickly took a few steps forward and untied the cloth bag before his master. He was shocked to see a hideous human head.

"What are you fighting for, kid? You need to change your impatience!"

Pei Li pushed Pei Baisi aside and saw the head on the table and asked subconsciously, "Head! Whose is it?"
"I saw a viper on the way here, so I killed it and brought it to you."

Zhou You tapped the edge of the table with his fingers. "By the way, find someone to take a look. There are still some corpses of minions in that place. It looks like a hideout."

"Master, I'll take a few people to take a look."

Pei Baisi volunteered.

Pei Li nodded, "Go ahead, be careful."

He believed what Zhou You said and was sure that the danger was over, otherwise he would not have allowed his disciples to risk going out.

After the disciples left, Pei Li said to Zhou You sincerely, "Master Zhou, you gave me a big surprise!"

After a while...

An employee of Qianmiantang held up the reward, checked the head again and again, and used a silver needle to take dirty blood to test for poison.

Still not convinced, he checked the density and texture of the muscles at the severed end of the head, as well as the limit of contraction. He finally determined that it was the head of a high-level martial artist. There was no sign of disguise on the face, and it belonged to Fu Manlun, the leader of the Wan Du Secret House disciples.

Supporting evidence from the other side has also arrived.

Pei Baisi hurried back with a few martial arts disciples, his face full of excitement.

"Master, I followed the directions given by Master Zhou. It used to be a house, but the owner is unknown. Now it has become a ruin. There are many bodies of people who were tortured and killed in the ruins, as well as a large number of bodies of people who were poisoned."

Pei Baisi subconsciously glanced at Zhou You, his eyes full of awe and admiration, "The bodies of those poisonous warriors all died from the tiger fist killing move, it must be Master Zhou who did it."

There was a snap.

The sudden noise broke the atmosphere at the scene. It turned out that the person from Qianmiantang lost his concentration and something in his hand fell to the ground.

This news was too unbelievable. Zhou You seized a secret base of the Wan Du Secret Shop and killed Qu Manlun.

what does this mean?
"Master Zhou, can we spread this matter?"

The visitor from Qianmian Hall asked respectfully.

This matter is of great importance. Once it is exposed, Zhou You’s strength will no longer be kept secret.

Zhou You didn't care. He knew he couldn't hide it. He raised his hand and said, "No need to hide anything. Just say what you have to say, but don't exaggerate."
