Xie Wanting said coldly: "It doesn't matter whether you admire it or not. Because you will die soon."
"That's right." Gui Wuya sneered lowly, as if he didn't take it seriously, "By the way, thank you, City Lord, there is one more thing that I find very strange."
"Which point?"
"Since my death is imminent, I still keep asking questions. Don't you think it's a bit strange, City Master Xie?"
Xie Wanting said lightly: "Why, what do you want to imply?"
Gui Wuya didn't answer, but just gave a strange "hehe" laugh.
For some reason, hearing Gui Wuya's weird laughter, a faint cold chill slowly emerged from the bottom of Qiu Yutong's heart.
What did Gui Wuya mean by those words just now? Could it be...
Outside the alchemy furnace, Gui Wuya chuckled a few more times, and then said: "Actually, it's nothing. The reason why I asked so many questions is not for any other reason. I just want to die to understand."
"Return to the head, if you think that what you said just now to lure me can make the person in the alchemy furnace avenge you and expose the things I have done, then you are thinking too simply... You shouldn't be such a naive person."
Xie Wanting's voice was soft and slow, extremely calm, but Gui Wuya's laughter stopped abruptly.
And Qiu Yutong froze, her hands and feet were icy cold.
Senior brother... he found himself
"Xie Wanting, you already knew?" Gui Wuya opened his mouth extremely awkwardly, completely losing the calmness he had before.
"As soon as I entered the alchemy room, the first thing I saw was that the bookshelf had been tampered with, not to mention the missing Pi Dan Jing, and the medicinal materials were spilled all over the floor, and these medicinal materials that were spilled all over the floor were the ones that I let Xu The medicinal materials that Holly put in the Herb Cabinet. In this situation, what do you think I will think?"
Gui Wuya didn't say a word.
"Xu Dongqing is cautious and timid, and he respects his teacher very much. If he accidentally spills medicinal materials, he will definitely pick them up. He dare not let the medicinal materials be spilled on the floor of my alchemy room, unless... he saw something and panicked. To the extreme."
Speaking of this, Xie Wanting paused slightly, and his voice became very cold, as if he was saying to the people in the alchemy furnace: "Then what did he see? I guess, when he passed the bookshelf with the medicinal materials, his eyes widened. Courageously, he flipped through a few volumes of the alchemy, but he happened to find the one I forgot to take away... He was shocked, put the alchemy in his arms, turned around and was about to go out, when he heard me coming at the door, So scared that the medicinal materials spilled all over the ground..."
Gui Wuya smiled wryly and said, "I just guessed that there was someone inside the alchemy furnace, but I didn't expect that, City Lord Xie, you even figured out the whole process."
Xie Wanting laughed mockingly: "Master Gui also saw it, some dust was wiped off the medicine inlet above the alchemy furnace... probably a mouse got in."
Hearing this, Xu Dongqing trembled involuntarily, while Qiu Yutong felt her heart slowly sinking to the bottom of the water.
"Come out!!" Xie Wanting suddenly snapped!
His stern shout contained incomparably thick and majestic spiritual power, and the entire huge alchemy room was hummed and echoed endlessly! !
Seeing that he could no longer hide, Qiu Yutong gritted his teeth secretly, and was about to jump out of the alchemy furnace, but suddenly a blur appeared in front of his eyes, it turned out that Xu Dongqing tried his best to break free from the sealed acupuncture points, and then broke the thin hidden seal , jumped out!
"Click!" There was a soft landing sound outside the alchemy furnace, and then there was complete silence.
No one spoke, and the tense atmosphere was almost suffocating.
After a long time, Gui Wuya murmured: "Xie Wanting, you already knew that Xu was in there. I actually tried my best to lure you to tell the truth... Are you proud? "
"Return to the head, don't even think about it, even you can see that there is someone in the alchemy furnace, so I can't see it?"
"Since you know he's inside, why did you tell all about it?" Gui Wuya said hoarsely.
Xie Wanting was silent and did not answer.
In the huge alchemy room, there was not a single sound, only a very slight "cluck" sound. Qiu Yutong's mind was in chaos and confusion. After a while, he realized that the slight "cluck" sound was something Xu Dongqing couldn't control. teeth chattering.
Anger, fear, unbelievable... Admiration, hatred, like a nightmare... Qiu Yutong can almost imagine the emotions of the second owner of Yaowang Zhuang - despair to the extreme, fear to the extreme, hatred to the extreme, and confusion to the extreme …
"Master... Master, what you said just now is true, is it true?" Xu Dongqing's voice trembled violently, so weak that he hardly looked like a monk who had already entered the Tao.
Xie Wanting didn't bother to talk to him at all, instead he said to Gui Wuya: "Master Gui, you just asked me why I told him everything when I knew he was in the alchemy furnace... Do you understand now? "
Gui Wuya was silent for a while, and then whispered: "I understand. When you find someone inside the alchemy furnace, this person is already dead. You want us both to die clearly. "
Xie Wanting sighed: "Exactly."
At this moment, I suddenly heard the crisp sound of "Qiang!!!" drawing a sword, and then Xu Dongqing's hoarse roar: "Thank you, Xie Wanting! Pay for my brother's life!!"
Qiu Yutong was startled suddenly, Xu Dongqing was hitting a stone with an egg!
At this moment, the coercion in the alchemy room suddenly sank like a mountain top! That terrifying coercion is almost like Xie Wanting himself, powerful, cold, gentle, indifferent... merciless.
"Stop!" Qiu Yutong didn't have time to think about anything, she jumped lightly, and when she was in mid-air, Amaterasu Yunhai was already in her hand!
"Clang—"
With a melodious clear sound, almost at the juncture of the moment, the misty Amaterasu and the sea of clouds swept out, severely blocking the bright and dazzling Zhi Ge! !
At this moment, Zhi Ge's light blue sword edge, as thin as a cicada's wing, was only half an inch away from the top of Xu Dongqing's head! As long as Qiu Yutong was a moment late, Xu Dongqing would have been split in half from head to toe!
Xie Wanting was so shocked that his mouth was numb, and he took a step back involuntarily, a look of astonishment finally appeared on his usually gentle and calm face: "... Yutong?! Why are you here?"
Qiu Yutong didn't answer, just stared blankly at Xie Wanting: "Your legs..."
Xie Wanting was standing.
His leg...has healed.
"Senior brother, you, you just said..."
Qiu Yutong's voice was so dry that he could barely speak. He never thought that speaking was such a difficult thing. He just felt as if he had fallen into a boundless nightmare. Even now, he could only subconsciously With the horizontal sword in his chest, there was no way to point the sword edge of Amaterasu Cloud Sea at Xie Wanting.
He can't do it.
This is his senior brother who is the head of the sect... This is the senior brother who has gone through all kinds of hardships and brought the three of them up from childhood... This is the brother who is like a father, leaving them the best talents and treasures, and he is reluctant to let them suffer a little bit of grievance Senior brother...
Face to face with the senior brother in charge... How could he, how dare he
Reason told Qiu Yutong that he should attack immediately, make a quick decision, and capture the opponent in one fell swoop, but his body couldn't move at all, his arms seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and even Tianzhao Yunhai couldn't lift them up.
In the alchemy room, there was a dead silence.
"Hahahahahahaha..." Suddenly, a burst of crazy laughter finally broke the stagnant air!
Gui Wuya was laughing wildly and gasping for breath, almost bursting into tears: "Hahahaha, Xie Wanting, Xie Wanting, I don't know whether to say that people are not as good as heaven, or that a wise man will make mistakes if he thinks about it. ...Even if you are as smart as you, how could you think that besides this person surnamed Xu, there is also your good junior brother in this alchemy furnace? Hahaha... "
At this time, Qiu Yutong finally noticed that the former head of the Beihai Sword Sect.
This... This is Gui Wuya
The man sitting in the ebony wheelchair in front of him was so thin that he was almost out of shape, only a handful of skinny bones remained. His head was full of thick black hair in the past, but now only a few strands of gray hair remained. On the scalp, there are large mottled scars that have been burned.
At this moment, his left eye was slightly narrowed, looking at Qiu Yutong with interest, but his right eye was gone, leaving only a terrifying black hole.
The hands holding the armrests of the wheelchair were once considered top-notch swordsman's hands, and could even fight Qiu Yutong hundreds of moves, but at this time, these hands didn't even have a single fingernail, and the bare fingers were bloody and bleeding. The yellow-brown stinky pus can faintly see the white phalanges below.
As for his legs... they're gone. In other words, his lower body was gone.
He looked, hardly like a human being, but like some kind of mutilated monstrosity.
Only the familiar arrogant tone, and the faint arrogance in that one eye, could find a shadow of the former head of the Beihai Sword Sect.
"Gui Wuya, you, you..." Qiu Yutong felt her scalp go numb, and almost involuntarily took a step back.
"Ahem, why, Master Qiu seems to be surprised?" Gui Wuya's skinny and ugly face gradually showed a strange smile, and his hoarse voice was actually a little pleased, "Yes, this is your gentle and kind person. Senior brother, the head of the sect, has been a masterpiece for two full years. If it weren't for the spiritual energy protecting my heart, where would I be able to talk to you now?"
Xie Wanting took a step forward and said in a shy voice, "Yutong, don't look at it."
"...Brother?" Qiu Yutong slowly raised her eyes to look at Xie Wanting, feeling extremely bewildered.
"He has done too many evils and tortured you like that, but now he just deserves what he deserves, it's nothing." Xie Wanting said softly.
Qiu Yutong stared blankly at this very familiar and yet very strange person in front of her. After a long silence, she said in a low voice: "Brother, your leg... When will your leg get better?"
Before Xie Wanting could answer, Gui Wuya had already hissed with a laugh: "His legs have been healed a long time ago! After refining the magic pill and opening up his meridians, he can already stand up! It's just, just to hide Strength, he has been sitting in this broken wheelchair... Hahahahahaha..."
"Gui Wuya, you are dying, so you still have so much to talk about." Xie Wanting said coldly.
But at this point, Gui Wuya didn't seem to be afraid of anything anymore, he raised his finger to Xie Wanting, laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, and finally laughed so much that he fell on the armrest of the wheelchair, unable to get up at all: "Ha Ha ha… "
"Crazy!" Xie Wanting scolded, then persuaded softly, "Yutong, ignore him."
Qiu Yutong didn't answer, he was very dizzy. Hearing Gui Wuya's crazy laughter, he felt his chest was so heavy that he could hardly breathe. And strange, both amiable and terrifying, this is an unprecedented powerful enemy... And this powerful enemy is his senior brother in charge.
He gripped Amaterasu Cloud Sea tightly.
However, his right hand, which had always been stable like a rock, was trembling unconsciously at this moment.
"Yutong, don't you want to do something to the sect master brother?" Xie Wanting said softly.
"Senior Brother Sect Master, I..." Qiu Yutong forced his sword across his chest, but no matter what, he couldn't make a move.
Xie Wanting's dark and gentle eyes looked at him deeply, those eyes seemed to be able to see into the deepest part of his soul, to see all his weakness, all hesitation, all his intolerance...
"Yutong, listen to senior brother, put away the sword, then go back to Feilai Peak, and have a good sleep... If you can't sleep, get up and dance the sword, or ask your little apprentice to play chess with you. Here The matter will be handled by the senior brother, you don't have to worry about anything, and you don't have to touch anything. Okay?"
Qiu Yutong didn't know what to say, she just shook her head.
Although he was stupid, he also knew that as long as he left, Xu Dongqing behind him would be finished.
Xie Wanting looked at him, and suddenly heaved a long sigh: "Oh... Yutong, you, you. How can you be as virtuous as Han Yuan? He had a big fight with me and went down the mountain without looking back. , for two whole years, there is no news. What about you? Do you want to fight with me too?"
"Brother Sect Master, I, I..." Qiu Yutong held Tianzhao Yunhai tightly, he could clearly split mountains and divide seas, but at this moment, he was so weak that he couldn't even swing a sword.
What should he do? what can he do
Xie Wanting closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Yutong, I also understand that you probably think I'm a monster...but I really tried my best. I also want to live a simple life and protect Shuoxue openly The city protects you. But, it is really too difficult, too difficult... I am your senior brother, if there are four of us, one of them is destined to be unclean, it can only be me, not you. "
