Chapter 66 Going deep into the tiger’s den
Senior Brother Chu Feng, Senior Sister Yun Yao, and I arrived at the sect elder's residence. It was a tranquil courtyard, surrounded by verdant bamboo. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, as if playing a tranquil melody. With awe, we gently pushed open the rustic wooden door and entered. The elder sat on a cushion, his eyes closed, resting. The air was filled with the faint scent of sandalwood.
Senior Brother Chu Feng stepped forward respectfully, clasping his fists in a salute. He then spoke softly, "Elder, during our investigation, we discovered a place called 'Shadow Pavilion,' but none of us have ever heard of it. We seek your guidance." The elder slowly opened his eyes, his gaze like the depths of a lake, shimmering with boundless wisdom. He raised his head slightly and gazed at Senior Brother Chu Feng. After a moment's silence, he slowly spoke, "'Shadow Pavilion,' that's an extremely mysterious organization. For years, they've lurked in the shadows, like a ghost lurking in the shadows, their actions cunning and elusive. Their ambitions must be significant. Now that you've provoked them, you must exercise caution and refrain from rash actions."
Senior Sister Yunyao stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Elder, what should we do now? We know almost nothing about this organization. It's like groping in the dark, unable to find our way." The elder stood up and paced around the room, his steps light, each one akin to pondering something. Then he stopped, looked at us, and said, "To uncover their conspiracy, I'm afraid we'll have to delve into their ranks, but this is fraught with danger, like stepping into a tiger's den."
I frowned and said worriedly, "But we know so little about them. How can we penetrate their inner core? It's like searching for treasure without a map—extremely difficult." The elder looked at me with a hint of encouragement in his eyes. "Couldn't this young disciple lead out the person behind this? You can start from that aspect. If you make good use of this opportunity, perhaps you can find a way to enter their inner core."
We followed the elders' advice and returned to the sect to begin making plans. Following our instructions, the young disciple secretly spread the word that he had important information to share with the mysterious organization and wanted to meet with them again.
A few days later, the mysterious organization indeed sent someone to contact the young disciple. Upon meeting the visitor, the young disciple feigned trepidation and said, "I feel like the sect has begun to suspect me, and I'm very scared. I know something about precious herbs, and I'd like to make a deal with you." The visitor sneered and said disdainfully, "Hmph, kid, you'd better not play any tricks. If you dare to lie to us, you know what the consequences will be." The young disciple nodded quickly, trembling, "No, no, how dare I lie to you? I sincerely want to cooperate with you." The visitor nodded in satisfaction, then gave the young disciple an address and said, "Go to this place at night. Remember, you can only come alone. If we find out that there are others following you, you're dead." The young disciple agreed hesitantly, "Yes, yes, I understand."
At night, we quietly followed the young disciple toward the address. It was an abandoned manor on the outskirts of the city. A gloomy atmosphere permeated the area. Overgrown weeds, taller than a person, swayed in the night breeze like countless dancing hands. The walls were also dilapidated, with some areas already collapsed, revealing dark gaping holes.
We cautiously entered the manor and discovered a number of men in black patrolling inside. The young disciple walked towards a house as agreed, while we observed from the shadows.
After the young disciple entered the house, we heard a sound coming from inside.
"You said there was important information, tell me quickly." A deep voice said, with impatience in its voice.
"I can tell you the location of the herb, but you have to ensure my safety. I can no longer stay in the sect and can only rely on you." The young disciple said tremblingly, with a hint of pleading in his voice.
"Hmph, as long as what you say is true, we will naturally not treat you unfairly. But if you dare to lie to us, don't even think about leaving this room alive." The man in black threatened viciously.
"How dare I lie to you? The herbs are in the secret room of the medicine house, but there are many mechanisms there. I can help you crack them." The young disciple said hurriedly.
"How do you know how to crack the mechanism of the secret room?" the man in black asked suspiciously.
"When I was helping out in the medicine house, I happened to see an elder go in and secretly wrote down some things," the young disciple explained.
At this moment, we decided not to wait any longer. Senior Brother Chu Feng rushed in first, shouting, "Your conspiracy will never succeed!"
The men in black in the room immediately became alert, and one of them shouted, "Who are you? How did you get in?"
Senior Brother Chu Feng sneered: "You evil guys, today is your end!"
"You are so arrogant! Let's see if you have the ability to do it!" The man in black said as he rushed towards Senior Brother Chu Feng.
Senior Sister Yun Yao also rushed in and shouted to the men in black, "You're using our little disciple to get the herbs. You definitely have bad intentions!"
The man in black retorted, "It's none of your business to meddle in our affairs. If you know what's good for you, leave now, or don't blame us for being rude!"
Senior Sister Yun Yao said, "We won't let you succeed. We already know part of your conspiracy."
I also rushed into the house, punched a man in black, and said, "Don't even think about hurting my brothers and sisters!"
The man in black mocked, "Just you? Little girl, you'd better go home and embroider."
I said angrily: "Don't underestimate me!"
Senior Sister Yun Yao once again used her special medicinal powder skills. As she sprinkled the powder, she said, "Let me show you how powerful I am!"
After the men in black smelled the powder, some of their movements became sluggish. One of them shouted, "What is this? Why do I feel so weak?"
Senior Sister Yun Yao said, "This is a powder specifically made for you. You can't escape today!"
But the men in black were not completely controlled and they continued to fight with us.
On the northern border, Brother Ling Xiao found a hermit wise man with the ancient book. The wise man's residence was a cave surrounded by exotic flowers and plants.
Brother Ling Xiao walked into the cave and said respectfully, "Senior Wise, I found this ancient book during my investigation. It contains some strange symbols. I would like to ask for your help in interpreting them."
When the wise man saw the symbols on the book, his face became serious. He frowned and said, "This is not an ordinary symbol."
Brother Ling Xiao hurriedly asked, "Senior Wise, what do these symbols mean?"
The wise man said slowly, "This contains an ancient sorcery that can control the human mind. It seems this mysterious organization intends to use this sorcery to achieve its ulterior motives. This sorcery is extremely dangerous. If they were to master it, the consequences would be disastrous."
Brother Ling Xiao was shocked and said, "Then we must stop them."
The wise man nodded and said, "You must bring this news back as soon as possible so that your sect can be prepared."
Brother Ling Xiao said firmly: "Don't worry, senior, I will definitely rush back as soon as possible."
Inside the manor, we were locked in a fierce battle with the men in black. Suddenly, more men in black emerged from the secret door of the house, seemingly prepared.
A man in black shouted, "Do you think it's so easy to deal with us? Today is your burial place!"
Senior Brother Chu Feng shouted, "We are not afraid of you. No matter how many of you come, we are not afraid!"
But as the number of men in black increased, we gradually fell into a difficult battle, and the conspiracy of the "Shadow Pavilion" was like a huge net, tightening around us. I secretly worried in my heart, could we break through the siege and stop their conspiracy?
Senior Sister Yunyao shouted to us, "Everyone be careful, don't get separated, and look after each other!"
I responded, "Senior Sister, I understand. You should be careful too!"
The men in black attacked us, saying, "You can't escape today, so prepare to die!"
Senior Brother Chu Feng said: "It's not that easy to kill us!"
We continued to resist tenaciously. Although the situation was very unfavorable to us, our eyes were still full of determination.
