Gu Zhen woke up in a daze and looked around. He saw that he was locked in a slightly dim basement. His hands and feet were tied and thrown casually in a corner.

His gaze finally fell on Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang.

Gu Zhen had not expected such a result. He curled his lips and sneered, "I never thought that I, Gu Zhen, who has been so wise all my life, would end up in the hands of you two little kids. I am so unlucky."

Being called a little kid, Ye Jintang did not know whether to laugh or cry. She had already become an old monster, but Gu Zhen still called her a little kid. He was really blind.

Just now when Gu Zhen was unconscious, Xiao Mo took his photo and asked around in Changjin Town, but no one knew him. It was obvious that he also used a disguise when he was in Changjin Town.

Ye Jintang didn't waste his breath beating around the bush with him and asked directly, "Gu Zhen, where did you hide Xiao Chengxi?"

"I don't know any Xiao Chengxi."

"Oh, then you must have a reason for assassinating us."

"If I said I didn't like you and wanted to kill you, would you believe me?"

Ye Jintang just laughed. It seemed that Gu Zhen was still quite stubborn.

"Jintang, how about I ask."

Xiao Mo was not as gentle as Ye Jintang. Before he started asking questions, his two bodyguards beat Gu Zhen up.

After beating the man to death, Xiao Mo asked, "Can you talk properly now?"

"I don't know what you are talking about. You can kill me or chop me up as you please."

Gu Zhen didn't take this minor injury seriously at all. He had suffered a lot over the years in pursuit of immortality, so he didn't take this minor injury seriously.

Looking at Gu Zhen who was like a piece of meat on a rolling knife in front of her, Ye Jintang was neither angry nor anxious. She had plenty of ways to deal with him and make him tell her what she wanted to know.

"It seems you don't want to cooperate."

"Just now on the mountain, you smeared poison on the bullet that injured Xiao Mo, so you should be very familiar with poison. I have a kind of poison here. After taking it, people's brains will not be very clear. No matter what I ask, you will answer honestly."

Gu Zhen couldn't help laughing when he heard Ye Jintang say that. "Little girl, do you think I'm a three-year-old child? How could there be such a strange poison in this world? You might as well tell me that you can hypnotize me, then it would be more credible."

"Since you don't believe it, let's give it a try."

Ye Jintang immediately stuffed the pill into Gu Zhen's mouth.

The pill melted in his mouth. Gu Zhen didn't react at first. He was about to laugh at Ye Jintang when suddenly a layer of fog appeared in front of his eyes and his mind went numb.

He thought to himself, if there really is such a unique poison in the world, then all the secrets in his heart would probably be revealed to others.

Gu Zhen was scared to death. If the secret in his heart were to leak out, many people would be implicated.

Thinking of this, Gu Zhen gritted his teeth and decided to commit suicide by taking poison. Unfortunately, it was too late. While he was thinking, Ye Jintang's poison had already been released, and he was unable to bite through the poison hidden in his teeth.

"What's your real name?"

"Gu Zhen."

"Where did you hide Xiao Chengxi?"

"Home."

Ye Jintang's poison was very effective and within a few words, the place where Xiao Chengxi was hiding was found.

After finding Xiao Chengxi, Ye Jintang did not stop there, but continued to ask, "Where do all these immortal twins of yours come from?"

"My master taught me."

Hearing this, Ye Jintang and Xiao Mo looked at each other. It was really unbelievable that there were actually people in this world who had been studying the way to immortality.

"Who is your master? Where is he? Do you have other fellow disciples?"

Ye Jintang's doubt was not a big deal. Even though she was knowledgeable, she was still quite surprised by what Gu Zhen said.

It turns out that Gu Zhen not only has a master, but also a sect. His master is a Taoist who calls himself Yunxian Taoist. He has collected quite a few addresses, more than 20 in Gu Zhen's generation alone.

Over the years, they have harmed countless people in their pursuit of research into ways to achieve immortality. In order to maintain their extravagant daily expenses, they even go around cheating wealthy people who want to live forever, turning them into knives in their hands and doing things for them.

People like Xiao Chengxi are called golden puppets, and there are also slightly lower-level silver puppets and bronze puppets.

There is also a kind of fairy puppet made up of women. As for what it is used for, Ye Jintang can guess it roughly without Gu Zhen telling him.

"Where is your master now?"

"He is on Mucang Mountain. Recently, a big boss got an incurable disease and is taking him to my master for treatment."

Mu Cangshan?

Ye Jintang had never heard of this name. He checked on the Internet and found that Mucang Mountain was not far from the capital and was a not-so-famous mountain.

"I've heard of Mu Cang Mountain. When I had a poisonous sore on my face, my parents took me to Mu Cang Mountain. They said the Taoist priest there had great medical skills and could help me treat the sore on my face. But I didn't see Taoist priest Yun Xian when I went there. It was one of his disciples who treated my face."

"He said the sores on my face were caused by too much killing in my previous life. He asked my parents to pay 20 yuan for incense and candles, and said he would help me to perform a ritual."

"As for the results, not only did it have no effect, I also drank a bellyful of magic water and had vomiting and diarrhea for several days."

"It seems that this group of scammers is extremely cruel."

Ye Jintang couldn't imagine how many lives were lost in the hands of this group of fake Taoist priests. Just look at Gu Zhen and you'll know. The prescriptions he gave Xiao Chengxi were all evil prescriptions, and they often used human blood as a medicine.

"But it's not that easy to deal with them."

Just now, Gu Zhen mentioned the name of that big boss. Even Xiao Yuanjian had to give in. If they touch Taoist Yunxian at this time, the big boss would probably be the first to stand up and disagree.

"Let's not act rashly until we find out their details first."

Afterwards, Ye Jintang asked Gu Zhen some questions about the evil rites in their sect, which really opened her eyes.

Babies and women are the most mentioned in the evil prescriptions, while strong men are rarely mentioned.

This is not the study of the way to immortality at all, it is clearly an act of venting one's anger under the guise of studying the way to immortality.

How can human hearts be so vicious.

"Boss, Xiao Chengxi has been found, and his condition is not good."

Xiao Mo received a call from his bodyguard and immediately went to check it out with Ye Jintang.

Xiao Chengxi, who had always been treated as a blood slave, was tortured beyond recognition. His arms were covered with needle holes of various sizes, which looked quite scary.

"Kill me, I don't want to live anymore."

When Xiao Chengxi saw Xiao Mo and Ye Jintang, he tried to break free from the bodyguards like a madman.

"It seems that Gu Zhen has dealt a heavy blow to you, but don't worry, Xiao Chengxi, I won't let you die. I will let you live well and suffer in fear every day."

"How can you be so vicious? I have no grudge against you."

Xiao Chengxi couldn't understand why Ye Jintang would keep biting him.

"No grudges or hatred? Then have you forgotten the car accident that killed Xiao Mo's parents? My parents were also involved in it."

Xiao Chengxi, I, Ye Jintang, will fight you to the death in this life.
