A spoonful of cold water was splashed on his face, and Jiang Xuening finally woke up.
There was a faint pungent odor in his throat.
She coughed a little uncomfortably, and when she wanted to stretch out her hand to cover her mouth, she found that both of her hands were tied behind her back, on a cylinder with a diameter of one foot. The hemp rope was a bit rough and tied too tightly, and it had frayed on the skin between her wrists, leaving a few deep and light red marks.
Water droplets fell from her long eyelashes, blocking her vision.
She blinked hard, and her eyes slowly changed from blur to clear.
A somewhat shabby room with wooden windows and wooden floors, the doorway is full of people, but there is a table in front of it, a tea table, and a white-haired old Taoist in a blue-gray robe sitting next to it and laying a brocade mat. On the chair, he was looking up and down at her.
When a young Taoist boy saw her awake, he threw the water ladle in his hand back into the bucket, and stepped back to stand beside the old man.
Jiang Xuening finally remembered.
Several days have passed since she was arrested, and the other party's group of masked people suddenly sprang out of the forest at a very fast speed. She didn't have time to shout, and was covered with a handkerchief dipped in choking potion from behind. , passed out in no time. I woke up several times in the middle, all in the carriage, and these people woke her up and told her to eat something. But the supervision is very strict, and she is often fascinated again after eating.
The whole person was groggy.
When she woke up, she shook her head like she was shaking paste.
But when she saw the old man, she suddenly woke up—
Not only because she had never seen this old man before.
More importantly, he woke up not in a carriage, but in a room, and tied himself to a log post, presumably to interrogate her
Although the old man also wore Taoist robes, he was different from Xie Ju'an.
Xie Ju'an's Taoist robe is commonly worn by literati and hermits in the secular world. Although it is improved from the shape of Taoist robes in Taoist temples, it has never embroidered either Tai Chi or gossip. This old man was wearing gossip patterns on the bottom of the sleeves and the robe, and his hair was tied in a bun at the top. He was tall and thin, with high cheekbones on both sides of his cheeks, slightly concave eye sockets, but his eyes were bright and introverted. There is a faint air of crookedness, and with that gray beard, it is indeed a bit of a worldly master and a true immortal.
He has a short nail on his little finger.
Although the person is old and thin, there are not too many wrinkles on his face, as if he has a skill in keeping his face.
A young woman with an exquisite figure, looking at only twenty-eight years old, wearing a pomegranate red gauze skirt, I don't know if it was intentional or what. He just knelt down obediently at the old man's feet and lightly beat his legs.
The old man's hand slid down her neck.
Gently placed it on the back of her neck against her delicate skin, and put the back of her hand next to her, actually using this young girl as a heater!
Jiang Xuening's eyelids jumped.
The old man's eyes stopped on her, carefully scrutinizing her subtle expression, seeing that although she was woken up by the cold water from the potion of the drug, she only looked around, not panicked, and said: "Little girl It's very calm, and it's worthy to be seen by him."
Jiang Xuening didn't know who he was referring to.
But looking left and right, there are people who carry knives and swords inside and outside, and there is no shortage of people wearing regular clothes and robes, but only this old man is sitting alone, and the little beauty is beating his legs. The initiator of the field.
Why is she panicking
At the moment, I only said: Zun drove so many people, spent so much effort, stunned me and caught me, except for tying me up, I didn’t beat or kill me, so I must have a lot of use value. . In this case, life is safe, what is the use of urgency? "
The old man laughed and said more of admiration: "Yes, I have a general understanding. I have been practicing Taoism for many years, and I have forgotten the name of the world. The Taoist name is 'Wanxiuzi', and you can call me 'True Yi Taoist'. But. It took a lot of trouble to invite the second girl Jiang as a guest, and the children under her command are not serious, if they are neglected on the road, they will also invite the girl Haihan. "
Wan Xiuzi!
True Taoist...
Although he was prepared in his heart, when the name rang in his ears, Jiang Xuening felt a chill in his heart.
Wan Xiuzi said, "Isn't that surprising?"
Jiang Xuening said: "If you guessed correctly, the attack on Tai'an Mansion in Shandong last year should have been the work of Your Excellency. It just didn't work that time. There is no "thousand-day defense against thieves" in the world, and it is difficult to prevent it. It’s not surprising to be successful if you plan for it, wait for an opportunity, and succeed.”
Wan Xiuzi immediately rubbed his palms and laughed: "Okay, okay!"
Jiang Xuening may have heard of this person.
Although I have never seen it in my previous life, and I don’t know how the other party will end up in the end, but more than 20 years ago, they joined forces with the King of Pingnan and invaded the capital, killing half of the capital and almost destroying the royal family, which can be regarded as a treason A highlight in history.
The court simply hated this man.
However, Tianjiao is very powerful in the south, and since the defeat in the past, Wan Xiuzi has rarely appeared in front of people again. He only controls the church members through his cronies.
Therefore, even if the government strangled many times, there was no gain.
She was not particularly able to guess why the other party arrested her for a while, so she did not dare to speak easily.
But the girl who was kneeling on the ground and beating Wan Xiuzi's leg heard that Wan Xiuzi was so kind to Jiang Xuening, and even ate the taste, rolled her eyes at her, and turned her head even more pitifully with her chest out. Wan Xiuzi leaned in front of him, and his voice was so soft that it gave people goosebumps: "Teacher, it's almost dusk today, are you still not convinced by the elixir? Slave, slave have been here for a long time..."
Wan Xiuzi looked down at her.
The young woman flattered and took out a pill of purple red pill from her arms and handed it to him. This pill was made with a lot of effort, and it is what Wan Xiuzi takes every day. As for the effect...
Wan Xiuzi also touched the woman's face before taking out the small pill and taking it in his mouth.
Jiang Xuening watched, vaguely aware of the relationship between the two, and saw a chill.
Wan Xiuzi turned slightly ruddy after taking the pill, and only touched the young woman's chest and neck with his hand, and finally pinched her chin, raised her face to look at it, and looked at Jiang Xuening again, as if comparing something.
The woman was very sour: "Isn't this slave good-looking?"
Wan Xiuzi was fine at first, but after this sentence, for some reason, her complexion instantly turned gloomy. She even pinched the woman's jaw and pushed it back, coldly saying, "Are you also worthy of comparison with her?"
The woman was so embarrassed that she burst into tears.
Wan Xiuzi seemed to have a seizure, but seeing how pitiful she was, he gently reached out and patted her cheek, as if he was treating her as a plaything, but suddenly he returned to his previous indifferent tone, saying, "Du Jun is broken. For example, seeing her is naturally much better than you."
The woman bit her lip, but looked at Jiang Xuening for a moment, as if she couldn't believe it, and even appeared a bit more jealous than before.
Even the surrounding sect members suddenly had some noisy voices.
All eyes seemed to suddenly fall on Jiang Xuening.
There is surprise, exploration, and wonder.
Jiang Xuening's whole person is not very good. It's not that he has never seen the world and was frightened by this little scene, but he feels that these people's eyes are different from before, as if they are looking at someone they have never seen before. .
Listening carefully, someone vaguely said, "Mr. Du Jun has also found someone to practice with" "This woman is very capable"...
The "Du Jun" mentioned in their words...
The name Jiang Xuening has an impression. At the beginning of the Tongzhou battle, Zhang Zhe infiltrated the Heavenly Sect under the guise of "Dujun Shanren"! Now, Wan Xiuzi actually said that it was Du Jun who fell in love with her
Under the sudden change in her heartbeat, her face changed a bit.
Wan Xiuzi saw this in his eyes.
He suddenly realized something, and his white eyes slowly rolled around: "You still don't know Du Jun's identity?"
Jiang Xuening's heart skipped a beat.
If it wasn't for Wan Xiuzi's sentence, she would not understand.
However, after this sentence was added, a flash of light in her mind made an electric light, which almost made her shudder for a while, and the answer that no one would dare to believe came up in her heart—
Thanks Juan!
Wan Xiuzi smacking, smacking, and seeming to be interested, he pulled the young girl over again, rubbing it up and down, her stomach became hard, but her expression seemed unmoved, but when she mentioned the word "Du Jun", she gradually remembered The past twenty years have come.
He snorted coldly.
When he spoke, he sighed a little: "For many years, I thought I would do good for the sky, but I didn't want to bring wolves into the house and raise tigers. Female, reconciling yin and yang thinks the way of cultivation, but in the end the years are easy to pass, and the number of lifespans is exhausted. If you don’t do anything, you will only be afraid of making wedding clothes for the surnamed Xie. I didn’t expect that God, who has the virtue of good life, actually helps me, but wants him Misunderstood by women, revealing such a big flaw! Is there any reason for a poor man not to laugh at it?"
Jiang Xuening vaguely heard the meaning: it turned out that she was arrested to deal with Xie Ju'an.
The young girl hummed under Wan Xiuzi's hands.
Wan Xiuzi only treated her like an object. Although he was playing with it, he didn't have the slightest sign of pity, and it only made people horrified to see it.
He even laughed.
He only said: "My celestial religion is Taoist orthodoxy, and I should keep my desires light. It's just that I don't count as a cultivation practice. It has to be the harmony between male and female, and the separation of body and mind. Sex, the only way is to 'get the Tao'. I thought he had the root of wisdom, so I asked Gongyi to find a few clean ones, and put him on the bed for him to practice. , The woman's place is the soul-destroying cave after all, the hero's tomb. If you don't practice early, when he sees some stunner and goblin in a critical moment, he won't be able to move his lower body, and he will be in trouble. Unexpectedly, he will not appreciate it."
At this point, Wan Kyuko's application has become a little more pleasant.
Especially when he looked at Jiang Xuening, he showed some satisfaction.
It is rare for him to have such a proud moment in the past two years, especially when he caught Xie Wei's shortcomings and was only waiting for someone to throw himself into the net, the whole person relaxed a lot: "Hmph, I also know that he is restless all these years, in the capital. It's as if he doesn't take me as a leader in his eyes anymore. It's just that he acts meticulously, and he has nothing to do with lust, love, or hate, and he will deal with a few of his cronies. It's a pity, he ignored it at the beginning, but I didn't take it for him; now, it has become his Achilles heel. After all, such a powerful person never escaped the word 'love' and planted it on a woman. God helped me, Want me to board the great treasure and dominate the world!"
Jiang Xuening's expression changed a bit after listening to the slanderous words of the old Taoist.
When I think of myself in prison, but I don't know how much trouble it will bring to Xie Wei, Yan Lin and others, I can't even laugh.
Wan Xiuzi seemed to be doing it deliberately, and asked again, "He didn't fight back when he was stabbed by you. He must have gotten you to accompany him to practice. It's very interesting, right?"
"Practice"...
Jiang Xuening's eyes twitched slightly, only pretending not to hear.
Instead, he said, "There are alchemists in the palace who use mercury to concoct alchemy, and they are dedicated to the Son of Heaven, which can bring people back to when they were young and strong. If the leader is worried that he will be young, he can give it a try."
"Ha ha ha ha… "
Wan Xiuzi raised her head and laughed out loud, not at all moved by her words.
"The dog emperor got the pills donated by the evil alchemists, and his life will be very short! Little girl, do you think I don't know that mercury is highly toxic? Taoist cultivation is the way of health, and it is naturally warm and nourishing. If you want to see me taking pills violently Damn, I'm afraid it's not possible."
Jiang Xuening: "..."
The leader of the cult who is serious about health preservation is really a clear stream among the alchemists who swear by mercury pills everywhere.
She really took it.
Wan Xiuzi glanced at the gradually darkening sky outside and said, "There are not two hours left, if Du Jun doesn't come..."
He looked back at Jiang Xuening.
Jiang Xuening scolded inwardly, thinking about Xie Ju'an as a human being, she didn't even bother to turn her eyes over to the head teacher, she only said: "Don't worry, Xie Ju'an will definitely come, but it's definitely not alone. If I were the head teacher, I would pack up at this time. There's still time for things to run."
Wan Xiuzi's pupils shrank slightly, as if considering her words.
After a long while, he smiled and said gloomily, "I want to see it too."
The two did not speak any more.
Although Jiang Xuening said that, it was only based on her understanding of Xie Wei in her past life and the intersection of Xie Wei and Xie Wei in this life, and she was not really sure. She had really seen what that person was like when he was crazy. It is not impossible to really do something single-handedly and go deep into the tiger's den.
It just fell into a trap like that.
Not only can't save her, but I'm afraid that they will fall into a general predicament.
She prayed in her heart that Xie Ju'an would not appear.
If you wait until the beginning of the child, no one will be seen.
Wan Xiuzi's complexion is getting worse and worse.
Seeing that the three-quarter clock of Zi Shi was about to sound, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and a Taoist boy bowed his head and reported outside the door: "Qi report to the teacher, Mr. Du Jun, please see you outside the helm! Xinzhou! There is no change in the army, no one follows along the way, and it is indeed a return to the church alone!"
