248. Step through the iron shoes(1/2)

The moonlight shines through the gaps between the shadows of the trees and falls in the forest.

The night wind was cool, Yin Jiang covered his faintly painful heart, his face turned pale as paper, "If... Rong Yuanqiu found Su Mo first... no matter what trick you have... he would be defeated!"

The ghost Taoist's eyes turned cold, he leaned over, grabbed Yin Jiang's neck and pulled him up, his eyes shining, "What you should worry about is whether you can see the sun tomorrow!"

Yin Jiang had difficulty breathing, but sneered, "You dare not...kill me... without me... you will definitely not be able to find... Su Mo..."

The ghost Taoist suddenly threw away Yin Jiang. He smashed heavily on the tree trunk not far away like a piece of rag, and rolled to the ground with a muffled groan.

Yin Jiang was thinking at this moment that it seemed that the ghost Taoist would have to get rid of Yuan Qiu before he found Su Mo. In this way, Yin Jiang was safe because the ghost Taoist had to rely on him to find Su Mo.

Just as Yin Jiang was thinking about how to deal with it, the ghost Taoist came to him again in the blink of an eye and took out a small bottle from his arms.

Yin Jiang's heart skipped a beat! This is a master of poison skills! He must be poisoning him!

Unexpectedly, after the sound of the bottle plug being pulled out, Yin Jiang heard a strange cooing sound that made him feel creepy, as if it was... from the hands of the ghost Taoist!

The ghost Taoist tilted the bottle mouth towards Yin Jiang. Yin Jiang subconsciously widened his eyes to see clearly what was inside, but he only saw a hole in the black horn, followed by a rustling sound, as if something was crawling out...

Yin Jiang's face was bloodless and turned around and wanted to run away!

The ghost Taoist slapped Yin Jiang to the ground with a palm, walked over, pulled him up with one hand, put his back against the tree trunk, strangled his chin, and forced him to open his mouth!

Then, he pointed the bottle mouth at Yin Jiang's mouth...

"Ah..." Yin Jiang's instinctive terrifying cry was blocked by the foreign object that instantly penetrated his throat. His whole body was stiff and cold, as if he had been imposed by someone, and he did not dare to move!

After a while, Yin Jiang fell to the ground, holding his head, trembling and scratching as if he was in a dizzy state, screaming continuously!

The voice of the ghost Taoist's cold voice sounded in Yin Jiang's ears, "This is the treasure raised by the deity, and I like to eat human brain the most. If you can't kill it, you will not knock your head in half and go to see the King of Hell, haha."

Yin Jiang's shrill cry echoed in the woods. In less than a quarter of an hour, Yin Jiang began to beg for mercy in a trembling voice, "Give me aside...give me aside...give me aside anything!"

The ghost Taoist sneered, "The last person who dared to threaten his deity had a skull made into a wind chime. Do you want to try it too?"

"No...no...no!" Yin Jiang roared in pain, "Please...please...let me go..."

Yin Jiang did not see anything the ghost Taoist did. The pain in his head, which was about to explode, suddenly eased and disappeared in a flash, as if he had just had a nightmare.

But he still couldn't stop his trembling body, reminding Yin Jiang that it was not a dream.

He was so proud that he deceived Yuan Qiu, but never expected that he would cause himself terrifying trouble!

Yin Jiang didn't even see clearly what was entering his body, but it must be a living thing. Yin Jiang didn't dare to think too much, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt.

"Now, you can answer my own question. Why do you want to deceive that girl? Su Mo, where is it?" asked the ghost Taoist coldly.

Yin Jiang knew that the poisonous insect was still in his body. If the ghost Taoist moves his finger, he will live worse than death. For the sake of this, only by agreeing to the conditions of the ghost Taoist can he survive.

"The patience of my deity is limited." The ghost Taoist snorted coldly.

Yin Jiang curled up in a ball under the tree tremblingly, "Old master, have two sons... The eldest son ran away from home many years ago and never went back... Now the old master is seriously ill and sent us brothers to find the young master, but he only found Su Mo, who looks very similar to the young master, and suspected that he was the young master's son..."

"What are the benefits for you to take Su Mo back?" The ghost Taoist narrowed his eyes slightly.

"At that time, the young master made a big mistake and left the family... but the old master was partial to the young master. After so many years, he refused to hand over the family to the second master... Only when he saw the young master, the old master would tell where the most important treasure was hidden... As long as the old master recognized Su Mo as his grandson, it was the same as seeing the young master..." Yin Jiang felt his head start to ache again.

The ghost Taoist snorted coldly, "Are you the second young master's person?"

Yin Jiang looked ugly, "Yes..."

"When you go back, you ask your old master to tell Su Mo where the secret treasure is before you die. Then, you can get the treasure again?" The ghost Taoist asked coldly.

Yin Jiang gritted his teeth and replied, "That's right... The young master has a bad character, and the old master is so partial, it's unfair!"

The ghost Taoist sneered, "Is it your turn to be a slave to take care of the matter between his father and his two sons? He kept calling out to the old master but doing something to betray him. You have the attitude to say that others have bad character! It's ridiculous!"

Yin Jiang's face froze and did not argue.

The ghost Taoist's eyes flashed slightly, "You asked your brother to take Su Mo back to the family first, and you went back to find Rong Yuanqiu. Why? You didn't ask her to save your old master. You didn't look for her because of the name of a miracle doctor, but because she is Su Mo's wife and the person Su Mo cares the most! You know Su Mo's ability, and you are afraid that he will lose control after he gets the secret treasure, so you plan to capture Rong Yuanqiu and use her to make Su Mo obey! Did I guess correctly?"

Yin Jiang remained silent, just because he agreed.

"Just rely on you, I want to control Su Mo and Rong Yuanqiu?" The ghost Taoist mocked him, "I'm really overestimating my abilities! If you go back late, your real master, or someone you care about, will definitely be snatched away by Su Mo and will not die a bad death!"

Yin Jiang's expression changed again and again, "You...you just want to kill Su Mo?"

"I am not interested in the secret treasures of your family! All I want is Su Mo's life!" The ghost Taoist said coldly, "You have already made things clear, so you don't have to suffer! I am not an enemy of you. It's too stupid to use Rong Yuanqiu to control Su Mo! But I can help you!"

Yin Jiang frowned and looked at the ghost Taoist, "What do you mean?"

"Take me back to the family, and after your old master tells Su Mo where the secret treasure is, I will take action to solve it! Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?" The ghost Taoist sneered.

Yin Jiang looked hesitant. He was not stupid. The ghost Taoist didn't even ask what the secret treasure he mentioned was, nor did he delve into the details of his family. It was not because he was not cautious, but because his strong strength and status made him fearless. He didn't take Yin Jiang and the family behind Yin Jiang seriously at all! He just wanted to find Su Mo, not only to complete the unfinished task last time, but also to silence him! Because Su Mo had to die after seeing his true face! He had to continue to deceive his disciples and disciples to achieve his ulterior motives!

Yin Jiang was very awake at this moment. Since Su Mo was about to be silenced, as an insider, he would definitely not be able to escape death in the end! If he provoked this old poison to go back, it would even bring a catastrophe to the entire family!

However, if you disobey the ghost Taoist's will, Yin Jiang knew that what was waiting for him would be to live, not to die, not to...

Yin Jiang had already discovered that his close-fitting map was missing. He didn't think it was thrown away. It was very likely that Rong Yuanlang stolen. This could also explain why Yuan Qiu and Rong Yuanlang were so anxious to find Su Mo, but they refused to save him when Yin Jiang was in trouble because they no longer needed Yin Jiang.

Rong Yuanlang guessed correctly. It was the first time that Yin Jiang left his family to go out for business and came across the sea. Without map guidance, he could easily get lost.

Yin Jiang and Yin Han brothers, Yin Jiang is normal and has a lot of scheming. Yin Han burned his brain because of a high fever when he was a child, and his intelligence is still at the level of a child.

But before the two brothers separated, Yin Han said something was correct: He had the best memory! Especially in terms of recognizing the way, he would definitely not make a mistake when he was there once. This is one of the important reasons why Yin Jiang was relieved to let Yin Han take Su Mo back alone. Yin Han recognized the way and was very obedient. Yin Jiang did whatever he asked him to do. After explaining it clearly, there was little possibility of a problem.

On the contrary, the smart Yin Jiang is a road tycoon, especially on the sea, without a map, he can't find the right direction at all.

Therefore, Yin Han, the naive man, can take Su Mo first, and Yin Jiang also needs to hide the map close to find the way back.

Now that the map is lost, Yin Jiang will not be able to find the way if he goes back by himself. Fortunately, he has already remembered the map in his mind and can only be used after drawing it. The reason he has to draw it is because as a road fool, Yin Jiang can remember the map as a painting. If he lets him use the map directly based on his imagination, it will be very confusing and easily doubt his own judgment.

Yin Jiang doesn't want to die. If he takes the ghost Taoist back, there may be a glimmer of hope. If he doesn't, he will be in a dead end now. And he must hurry up and be in front of Yuan Qiu and his group, otherwise the situation will be unstoppable!

Thinking of this, Yin Jiang struggled to get up from the ground and knelt in front of the ghost Taoist, "I'll take you to find Su Mo, and you will help me kill him at that time... Let's cooperate!"

The ghost Taoist sneered, "Trade!"

Before dawn, Yin Jiang had already drawn the map again. The ghost Taoist looked at it, but did not kill Yin Jiang and snatch the map, because he suspected that the map was true or false. Only by letting Yin Jiang live worse than death can he obediently and lead the ghost Taoist to find the right place. At that time, he will rely on Yin Jiang to enter the mysterious family.

The ghost Taoist asked Yin Jiang to take out the insects swallowed by him. He tortured Yin Jiang for an hour every day, but did not delay his journey. Because the ghost Taoist's subordinate walked with Yin Jiang on his back, he had to let him experience the fear of life being worse than death, day after day, in order to destroy his will.

Yin Jiang never expected that his perfect plan would eventually turn into a nightmare return.

On the other hand, Yin Han, who was originally not far from the beach, did listen to Yin Jiang's words along the way, did not contact outsiders, and did not let outsiders see Su Mo. He took medicine to Su Mo every day...

But Yin Han accidentally lost the medicine that he had to take on Su Mo every day, disrupting the itinerary that should not have happened.

Yin Jiang did not regard Su Mo as his master. He found him just to use his face to go back and trick the old master into telling the secret treasure. However, Yin Han was simple in character and kept calling the little master. He really regarded Su Mo as his master and as the object he had to protect.

When Su Mo was knocked off the cliff and Yin Han caught him, he was already unconscious, but not because of serious injury, but because he was hit by a drug in the snow on the top of the mountain by the Ghost Taoist. In fact, Su Mo's real injury was not serious and he did not hurt the vital point.

Later, the reason why Su Mo was unconscious was that Yin Jiang gave him a secret poison, which led to him becoming a living dead person. The medicine he took every day was to ensure that Su Mo's body would not collapse.

Yin Jiang lied to Yin Han and said that he would not let Su Mo wake up because he was afraid that he would not be willing to follow them, and that the old master would definitely die. He also said that many people here want to harm him, and that going home is safe.

When I first saw Su Mo, I was in a coma and injured. Yin Han believed Yin Jiang's words without any doubts and was always very obedient afterwards.

But Yin Jiang never thought that Yin Han could lose the medicine, so naturally he didn't think about telling Yin Han what to do if the medicine was lost.

So, Yin Han, who had lost the medicine, blamed himself. In order not to let Su Mo be hungry, he began to play his freely and returned to find Yin Jiang.

Because in Yin Han's naive and simple concept, people will starve to death if they don't eat.

Of course, the little master cannot die, and it is all his fault for losing the medicine. He must wake up the little master as soon as possible, eat more meat for him, and make up for it well!

Children's psychology is that eating is very important. If you do something wrong, you must admit it and make up for it without any twists and turns.

In order to punish himself, Yin Han even planned to accompany Su Mo to stay hungry, and only rush to go without eating!

Only one day later, he was so hungry that he felt weak and his legs felt weak.

"My little master, I have to eat enough to have the strength to run with you on my back. It's not that I'm greedy!" Yin Han carefully discussed with Su Mo who was unconscious, "When you wake up, you'll hit me!"

After saying that, Yin Han went to find a lot of food. After filling his stomach, he carried Su Mo and continued to run wildly. He walked the paths their brothers had walked before without any errors.

After Yin Jiang and Yin Han got ashore, they specially selected the prosperous city to inquire about the people in the portraits they brought. Although they had never stayed in inns in order to avoid trouble, they walked through several cities.

The reason why I found out after asking for a long time was that although the people of Nanzhao Kingdom knew Su Mo and also knew that Su Mo was like a fairy, very few people had truly seen him. Su Mo grew up in the Nanzhao Palace since he was a child, and later was sent to Dongming as a hostage. He had been to many other places, but he went secretly in disguise his appearance and identity.

But Yin Jiang just mentioned the place name at the southernmost point of Nanzhao, and the next route was arranged by the Ghost Taoist. He was very familiar with Nanzhao and knew where to go the fastest. Moreover, they were acting secretly, and some subordinates would send food and water on time. Therefore, he and Yin Jiang would avoid all the cities during the day and not have contact with anyone, so as to ensure that they could go to the front of Yuan Qiu and his party. Because when Yin Jiang was captured, it was delayed for some time to interrogate him.

As for Yuan Qiu and his party, they also used the fastest speed. After disguising themselves, they did not act secretly and deliberately avoided outsiders.

At night, Yuan Qiu and others walked through a valley, not far away was Xucheng in the southern part of Nanzhao. Mrs. Xin said she had come here many years ago. The city was not big, and there was a bun in the city that was delicious, which was a little worse than Rong Lan.

"Okay, let's go to the city to buy more buns, have a break, and continue on the road." Yuan Qiu looked a little tired.

But what Yuan Qiu didn't know was that as they passed through the valley, two pairs of eyes stared at them in secret.

It was the Ghost Taoist and Yin Jiang, and the two sides happened to meet here.

In this way, the Ghost Taoist and Yin Jiang were confirmed, and Yuan Qiu did not rush to them.

"Senior Ghost Dao can rest assured. We will hurry up and we will rush forward to them." Yin Jiang said respectfully.

The ghost Taoist nodded, "Well, let's go." After saying that, he took Yin Jiang, bypassed Xucheng, and continued to travel south from another road.

The bun shop in Mrs. Xin’s memory was still there. As soon as the last basket of buns was out of the pot, the heat came out, and several people were rushing over to buy them.

Rong Yuanlong flew up from the horse's back and landed steadily in front, bowing, "I'm sorry, everyone, I want it all!"

Others who planned to buy buns, seeing that Rong Yuanlang was a foreigner with great martial arts skills, they would not have a dispute with him for talking about buns, so they all scattered them.
To be continued...
