Toad Palace Spring and Autumn
Chapter 24
When Ruan Kongqi woke up, the fierce battle was over.He tried to move, but he was surprised that his hands and feet were chained to the wall by iron shackles, and his whole body was limp and powerless.Turning his head and looking around, the place is not big, it seems to be an underground dark room, so dim that no light can penetrate, only relying on an old wind lamp to see things.
In the thick and lingering shadows, there was a tall man hidden.The man was playing with a sword in his hand.
Ruan Kongqi recognized this person.His name is Lei Dong. He was originally a death row prisoner in the Xiling Dungeon, but he disappeared because of an accident in the execution at Youfengling——he didn't expect to appear in Chuxiu Villa.
Seeing that Ruan Kongqi woke up, Lei Dong didn't pay attention, and still focused on the sword in his hand.
This sword, like its owner, has a hidden edge on the surface, but it is extremely bloody.The more people you kill, the more blunt your blade becomes.Anyone with a little experience can tell at a glance that the origin of the sword is unusual, no wonder Lei Dong couldn't wait to snatch it for his own use.However, the blade of the sword is too heavy, although ordinary people can lift it, but it doesn't fit in the hand when using it.While being puzzled, he couldn't help but take a look at Ruan Kongqi whose hands and feet were bound, and couldn't figure it out, where did that weak-looking body get the strength to move such a frontless epee?
Ruan Kongqi lowered her head, most of her beautiful face was covered by scattered black hair, and said in a cold tone: "Have you seen enough?"
When Lei Dong heard it, he continued to look at him unscrupulously as if he was intentional, and while stroking his chin, he said in a loud voice: "Oh, a prisoner is not a girl's house, so no one is allowed to see him?"
Ruan Kongqi raised her eyes, her gaze fell on his sword-holding hand, and her tone became a little colder: "What are you that can also move my sword?"
"What's wrong with me just moving your sword? Ah bah, what is your sword? Now it's mine! Humph!"
"you!……"
Lei Dong leaned over with a wicked smile on his face, "Hey, brother Ruan, are you thirsty? How about I peel a pear for you to eat?"
Ruan Kongqi didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, and said with a wary look, "What do you want to do?"
Lei Dong grinned, and sure enough, he went to the corner and took a white pear, sat down on the chair with a grin, and peeled the pear with the sword in his hand.As a result, one of them lost his grip, and the pear was crushed by the blade of the sword, and the juice flowed horizontally.
"Hey, you can't eat this one, I'll cut another one for you! Just wait, it'll be ready soon!"
……
Ruan Kongqi looked at Lei Dong laughing and playing in front of him with a livid face, but he was so outraged that he couldn't say a word.In Toad Palace, everyone knows that he regards his sword as life, and usually refuses to be touched by others.Unexpectedly, Huluo Pingyang was bullied by a dog. He knew how to use the most vicious language to attack an even-matched opponent, but he didn't know how to face a childish and ridiculous rascal.This person claims to be well-known and upright, but his words and deeds are no different from a low-level hooligan, which is disgusting.
"Something kills me."
Lei Dong pretended to scratch his ears, and asked loudly: "What? Don't want to eat pears? Then what do you want to eat?"
Ruan Kongqi gave him a vicious look, "If you don't kill me, you will regret it."
Lei Dong laughed, and finally threw the sword aside as if he had had enough of playing, and said slowly: "There are more than 300 lives in Chuxiu Villa, so killing you like this is not too cheap for you?!"
Ruan Kongqi turned her face away and said nothing.
Lei Dong gritted his teeth and said: "Unfortunately, this is not a prison cell, and there are no ready-made instruments of torture. Why don't I break your tendons and tendons first, disable your martial arts, so that you can no longer go out to harm others, what do you think?" "
Ruan Kongqi sneered, and said contemptuously, "Why wait until now. I don't think it's your turn to make decisions here."
Lei Dong was caught in his thoughts, and suddenly became angry. "Even if I kill you, no one dares to say a word of gossip!!"
"Then let's do it. See if it's my fate or your mouth."
"You!...Okay, I will let you taste that life is worse than death!!"
The furious Lei Dong took out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and suddenly slashed and picked Ruan Kongqi's slender right wrist.
The sudden pain was piercing, and the dark red blood snaked down, almost merging with the red sleeve cloth.Ruan Kongqi frowned sullenly, but she clenched her teeth and said nothing.
Lei Dong was in a good mood, he gestured at him with a knife for a while, and said with a sneer: "Next, it's not that simple..."
Needless to say the following words, Ruan Kongqi also understood that he really had the intention to kill, and said calmly: "How much pain I have suffered today, I will definitely pay you back ten times in the future."
When Lei Dong heard this, he was furious.This person is obviously a demon heretic, why is he so stubborn, and he speaks as if he is the most heinous villain!
The atmosphere was stalemate, and there was a sudden movement at the door.Lei Dong turned his head, and a man with the appearance of a young knight walked towards him quickly.
"Brother Ye, why are you here?"
Ye Yulou looked at him, then at the pale Ruan Kongqi, cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.
"Brother Lei, what did you do to him?"
"I... hum."
Seeing Lei Dong's expression, Ye Yulou guessed a little bit, and couldn't help sighing: "This time, the hero Ning fell into their hands, and everyone in the world knows it. Didn't the owner Lu tell you that before he comes back, you can't tamper with this person?" Is it?"
"Who made him ignorant of good and evil, asking for trouble!"
Ye Yulou groaned, and whispered to Lei Dong with a sad face: "The Taoist priest is poisoned by the poisonous soul smoke. It is useless for Mrs. Lu to invite the best doctor in the city. Now the Taoist priest is dying, so the lady asked I'm here as a lobbyist to see if I can get an antidote formula from this devil."
"This..." Lei Dong knew that he had done something wrong, so he took a peek at Ruan Kongqi, and asked, "What should I do?"
"You go out first, leave it to me here."
"Ok."
After Ye Yulou waited for Lei Dong to leave, he stepped forward to release the shackles on Ruan Kongqi.Ruan Kongqi lost her support, and her already limp body was on the verge of falling, she was supported by Ye Yulou, and she sat down on the chair.
"You're hurt, I'll take a look at it for you."
"You don't need to be hypocritical."
Ruan Kongqi turned sideways to avoid his touch.
Ye Yulou said as if nothing had happened: "Don't worry, we won't do anything to you until we are sure about Ning Daxia's safety."
Of course Ruan Kongqi knew who the Hero Ning he was talking about was, and thinking about her own situation, it was not difficult to guess the other party's intentions.
"You want to exchange me for Ning Huaishang?"
Ye Yulou said: "Vendor Master Lu is a person who values love and righteousness. If doing this can make Hero Ning safe and sound, I should be happy."
Ruan Kongqi's complexion changed slightly when she heard the words: "What do you mean?"
"According to our people's report, the owner of your palace has rejected the proposal of Zhuangzhu Lu's request for a replacement. Most of the people have returned to Xie Jianfeng, and Ning Daxia is also on the list."
Ye Yulou's voice was calm and unwavering, and Ruan Kongqi listened silently, but for no reason, she felt a shiver of cold water pouring on her back, and her whole body felt like falling into an ice cave.
"I've heard for a long time that the new master of the Toad Palace is a cold-blooded, ruthless person. I never thought that he would even treat his own subordinates..."
"Shut up." Ruan Kongqi interrupted him with a sullen expression, "It's not up to outsiders to comment on the internal affairs of the Toad Palace. If you want to sow discord, I advise you to die as soon as possible."
"Why don't we make a deal." Ye Yulou smiled indifferently, "Tell me the detoxification method of Lihunyan, and I will take you out of here."
Ruan Kongqi turned her head suddenly, under the dim light, the expression on his face had never been so solemn.
In the middle of the night, it rained heavily on Xiejian Peak, and the patter continued throughout the night.Inside the Dianjun Palace, Wen Chuqing tossed and turned, unable to sleep, so she put on her clothes and lay down on the bed, quietly looking at the rain curtain outside the window in a trance.
There were chaotic footsteps in the corridor, and after a while, someone called out loudly: "Hall Master, they are back."
What?came back?But at this time, it was clearly still early before the originally scheduled return to the palace.
Wen Chuqing had a bad premonition in her heart, and rushed out of the hall in a hurry, and ran into the scorched Liu Xuanying head-on. The hem of her skirt was wet with muddy water, obviously she came in a hurry.
"Sister Liu, why are you alone? Where are the Palace Master and Brother Ruan?"
"Brother Wen, it's great to meet you..."
Suddenly hearing the long-lost gentle tone, Liu Xuanying couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and wanted to cry.
Wen Chuqing hurriedly helped her to the inner hall, made a cup of hot tea and handed it over: "Don't cry, speak slowly, I'm listening."
"En." Liu Xuanying stabilized his mind and told the whole story slowly, "This time down the mountain, everything went smoothly, but who knew that our people had an inner ghost, not only let Lu Changqing and his accomplices go, but also kidnapped Lu Changqing and his accomplices. Brother Ruan..."
boom--
The teacup dropped from his hand and shattered to the ground.Wen Chuqing repeated in shock, "Who do you say was taken away?"
Liu Xuanying looked like he was about to cry, and said repeatedly: "Those people hate us so much, senior brother Ruan will suffer so much if he falls into their hands! They even threatened the palace master with senior brother Ruan's life, asking us to let him go!" Ning Huaishang, otherwise..."
Wen Chuqing said solemnly, "The palace lord agreed?"
Liu Xuanying shook his head: "No, the Palace Master asked me to lead most of the troops to escort Ning Huaishang back to the palace first, and he stayed in Xiangzhou with Nineteen to try to save people."
Intellectually, Wen Chuqing knew that Yue Yinlin's decision was correct.But in his heart, he is still not calm enough, especially when Ruan Kongqi is involved——
"Let me ask you, where is Ning Huaishang now?"
"It's been taken to Nanling Water Prison."
"I know you have a good impression of Ning Huaishang. Don't make things difficult for him during this time, give him whatever he wants, and wait for the palace lord to return."
Liu Xuanying heard the meaning behind his words, and said in astonishment: "Senior brother Wen, are you going down the mountain?"
"It's about brother Ruan's safety, so I can't just sit idly by. Don't worry, I will definitely bring him back safely." Wen Chuqing thought for a while and then instructed, "If you encounter trouble during this period, remember to go to Lanyue Pavilion first Ask Mei Luo, don't make up your own mind, you know? "
Liu Xuanying nodded with reddened eyes, as a consent.
