Nanfeng left first, followed by Zhuge Chanjuan. The fat man hesitated for a moment, then followed with the man in red.
Whether doing something is difficult or easy depends on whether you have strong abilities. When the fat man landed, the Fushui swamp within a two-mile radius had disappeared without a trace with the wave of Nanfeng's hand. Everything underneath is revealed.
There is a dry area at the bottom of the swamp, about five feet square. There are some rocks and rotten wood in it. There is a person sitting huddled on the edge. He is dressed in ragged clothes and has long hair. He does not know whether he is alive or dead, and does not know his age. He only knows that he is a woman.
As Fatty and Zhuge Chanjuan looked up into the distance, Nanfeng stepped towards the dry area. The swamp was muddy and there was nowhere to set foot. But as Nanfeng stepped forward, a stone road condensed by spiritual energy quietly appeared. The road is five feet wide, allowing three people to step on it abreast.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the dry area. Nanfeng raised his hand and said, "It's spiritual energy confinement."
Zhuge Chanjuan and Fatty also put their hands on it. Sure enough, just as Nanfeng said, although it cannot be seen by the naked eye, there is something there that can be touched.
"Is this person dead or alive?" The fat man stretched his neck to look at him.
"Still alive." Nanfeng said. When he got here, he could clearly see that the man's shoulders were rising and falling slightly, which was caused by his weak breathing.
"Tell me," the fat man threw the man in red to the ground, "Who is this man?"
The man in red was beaten, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Hearing the fat man's words, he lay on his side and did not answer.
The fat man went up and kicked him, "Say."
The man in red still didn't answer.
If it doesn't say anything, the fat man will beat him. If he doesn't say anything about it, he will continue to beat him. If he doesn't say anything, he will keep beating him. For a wicked man who has greeted his parents and women, the fat man will naturally not be merciful and he will strike hard. But the man in red He just endured it and didn't open his mouth.
While the fat man was tortured to extract a confession, Nanfeng conjured up a stone platform around the prison that could be stepped on, and surrounded the prison to observe the situation inside. The clothes on the woman in the prison were dilapidated and rotten, but it could still be seen that she was wearing It is a Shangqing Taoist robe.
The styles of Shangqing Taoist robes in different eras are also slightly different. The Taoist robe worn by this person is of the style after the Jin Dynasty, which shows that this person is a person of nearly a hundred years. The Taoist robe this person wore was a single robe, which shows that it was spring and summer when this person was trapped.
In addition to his clothes, it can be seen that this person is extremely thin and has a withered appearance, and his exposed hands are skinny and skinny.
There are still some stones and rotten wood scattered in the prison. The stones and debris in the middle area of the prison have been picked up and removed, and there are many writings written on the fine sand.
Nan Feng and Zhuge Chanjuan discovered the handwriting at the same time. It said, 'Xuan'er, I have fulfilled my wish for my mother. I don't want to live an ignoble existence and will not eat strange fruits again. You should not put yourself in danger again. This is breaking the precept for your mother. In the past, God has been extraordinarily merciful to you and me. Don't resent the heaven and the earth, don't blame the gods, cherish yourself and cherish yourself until the end. '
"It turns out she is the mother of the woman in black." Zhuge Chanjuan looked at Nanfeng.
Nanfeng nodded, Xuan means black, and son does not necessarily refer to son, it can also refer to daughter.
"The woman in black was born from a marriage between a human and a heterogeneous species." Zhuge Chanjuan said.
Nanfeng nodded again. The "extra-judicial mercy" written by the woman trapped in confinement was probably because the Heavenly Court suspended punishment before it learned that she was pregnant and allowed her to give birth to a daughter.
"Can't she see us?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.
Nanfeng nodded, "You can't see what's going on outside, and you can't hear the sounds outside."
"Then how did she know that it was her daughter who sent the Five Elements Melon?" Zhuge Chanjuan was very confused.
"The letter will definitely not be delivered, but it is not impossible to convey the message," Nanfeng said. "If the woman in black is smart enough, she can think of carving words on the Five Elements Melon."
Zhuge Chanjuan nodded and then turned to look back. Nanfeng's guess was not unreasonable, but guesses were always just guesses. If you want to know for sure whether the truth is like this, unless the woman in black is present or the man in red speaks.
But the man in red was still resisting. No matter how the fat man beat him, he just refused to speak.
"The thief is very arrogant," Zhuge Chanjuan said to the fat man, "Get out of the way and see how I treat it."
"Even if you kill it, it won't open its mouth." Nanfeng said casually.
Zhuge Chanjuan turned around in confusion.
Nan Feng smiled and said, "If it could speak, and Fatty beat it like this, it would have scolded it long ago even if it didn't speak."
Zhuge Chanjuan reacted and looked at the fat man, "Did you seal its mute point?"
"This is not the first time he has done this." Nanfeng said.
"Should, maybe, maybe, yes, I have sealed several places." The fat man was not sure whether he had sealed other people's acupuncture points. He tried to unblock the acupoints as he spoke, but he was not good at this. After untying the dumb acupuncture point, he hit the smile acupoint instead. The man in red's breath was messed up, but he couldn't let it out. He was overwhelmed internally and externally, his face was blue and purple from holding back, and his eyes were bulging.
Seeing this, Zhuge Chanjuan hurriedly stepped forward to correct her, and rescued the man in red before he suffocated to death.
The man in red was able to speak, and his first sentence was, 'I sealed my mute hole to force a confession, what a stupid bald ass. '
The fat man was scolded and went to beat the man in red again.
The man in red scolding the fat man does not mean that he is tough. In fact, he has wanted to confess for a long time, but before confessing, he has to say these words no matter what, otherwise he will be choked to death.
With one kick, the man in red began to beg for mercy, and the fat man began to extract a confession.
Zhuge Chanjuan came back and pointed at the thin woman in the prison, "She is so pitiful, please save her."
Nanfeng didn't answer, just shook his head.
"You don't want to, or you can't?" Zhuge Chanjuan raised her eyebrows.
"It's not easy." Nanfeng said. This spiritual energy barrier is extremely strong. It was undoubtedly the work of the Shangqing Patriarch. It is not impossible to break it, but it is by no means easy.
Zhuge Chanjuan did not ask again, nor did she force Nanfeng to take action, because she was not sure how difficult it was to be what Nanfeng said. Everyone has compassion, but Nanfeng must not be allowed to put himself in danger.
At this time, the man in red who transformed into a poisonous python had already begun to explain, but the fat man was not suitable to be the chief judge. He always asked questions like, 'Why did you bully that poor man? ''Why are you so shameless? 'How should the man in red answer such a question
Zhuge Chanjuan also discovered this and walked over to replace him. The man in red was already frightened and answered all questions. The situation soon became clear.
This poisonous python originally did not have such a high level of spirituality and did not live here. It came here by chance more than 20 years ago. It is poisonous and is not afraid of miasma. It is such a dangerous thing that few outsiders dare to come here. This place is a rare place for practice, so I chose this place to live. At that time, the prison had not yet been soaked in water. It observed for a long time to determine whether the people in the prison posed a threat to it and did not take it seriously.
But soon after, it discovered that someone came to bring food to the woman in confinement. It was a Taoist priest, and the food he brought was not the Five Elements Heavenly Melon, but a milky white juice.
Because of the miasma, the Taoist who came to deliver food never discovered the poisonous python, and the Taoist who came to deliver food did not come often, only once a year.
Later, something might have happened to the Taoist and he didn't come back, so the woman in black sent food on his behalf. The food the woman in black gave was Five Elements Melon.
What happened next was roughly the same as Nanfeng guessed. The poisonous python was afraid of the Taoist, but not the woman in black. Not only did he extort benefits, but he also secretly learned the Qi training method taught to the woman in black by the people in the barrier.
After asking about the situation, the fat man asked about the whereabouts of the woman in black. The man in red only said that he didn't know, and said that he would come within a hundred days at the latest, but this time she was already three days overdue and she still hadn't arrived.
Fatty and Zhuge Chanjuan both frowned when they heard this and looked at Nanfeng at the same time.
Nanfeng knew why the two of them were looking at him. The Five Elements Heavenly Melon could only provide enough food for a hundred days, which meant that the woman in the barrier had been hungry for three days.
Seeing Nan Feng frowning and saying nothing, the fat man asked cautiously, "Can we save him?"
"Let me think about it..."
