"She."

As Yao Lao spoke, he raised his finger and pointed at us. The man and I were secretly startled, but upon closer inspection, we found that his finger was not pointing at any of us, but behind us.<

/p>

When we looked back, we saw that the door of a room behind us was open. A haggard, elderly woman was standing there holding the door, looking straight at the people behind us, with a look of astonishment on her face.

, I can’t believe it.

When I looked at this woman, I felt very familiar. She must have known her before. Even the man holding me flashed his eyes when he saw her, with a shocked look on his face, and said: "What? You

——You want her?!"

"Not bad."

The woman also walked out slowly. She seemed to be in poor health and her expression was a little dazed. She didn't seem to be a sane and rational person, but rather seemed a little crazy. She stretched out her hands towards Yao Lao and murmured in her mouth.

Said: "You...you...you are——"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly smiled: "It's you, it turns out to be you!"

The man holding me frowned.

"Okay, okay, I'll go with you, you take me to play! Let's play!"

The woman was obviously very happy and smiled happily at Yao Lao. Although she was not young anymore, it could be seen that she must have been an outstanding beauty when she was young. Her smile also revealed a bit of the charm of the past, which made her

People couldn't move their eyes away, but Yao Lao looked at her crazy look sadly.

Yao Lao raised his head and said, "Are you willing?"

The man's eyes flashed and he said, "What is your relationship with her?"

Yao Lao fell silent and closed his mouth tightly, as if he did not intend to speak anymore.

"It seems that I have underestimated you. You actually have something to do with her?"

"..."

Yao Lao shut his mouth tighter.

The man thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Well, she should have been dead long ago anyway, and it is of no use to me to keep her. If you want to take her away, take her away. Just a little, take her away,

Just don't let her come back, otherwise - she will be dead after all."

As soon as he let go, Yao Lao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The woman had already walked over with a smile and said, "Let's go, take me to play."

Yao Lao looked at her and sighed sadly, and was about to turn around and take her away, but she suddenly stopped again, looked back, and said with a somewhat blank look: "By the way, son,

Where is my son? Why is my son missing?"

Son? She also has a son?

I heard her calling her son, and for some reason my heart twisted. I couldn't help but moan. The man immediately hugged me tightly, and Yao Lao had already said to the woman: "Let's go. If you want to find your son, I will take him."

You go find it."

With that said, he turned around and left with her, and those people also cautiously backed out.

For a time, most of the people in the courtyard had left, and the originally tense atmosphere relaxed at this time.

But my heart was aching in waves. The pain made me grit my teeth and my face turned pale. The man holding me hurriedly lowered his head and said, "What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

"..." I gritted my teeth and was speechless, but at this time, the man named Yang Yunhui came over, looked at me, then looked at the man, and said: "Third brother, she is -

—"

Third brother?!

As soon as I heard this title, my mind suddenly buzzed.

Third brother?! Three?!

I suddenly raised my head and looked at him: "You are——"

He looked down at me, and that look was so familiar. Countless pictures were ready to come out in my mind, but there was a sudden sharp pain in my heart, and my eyes suddenly turned white and I fainted.

When I woke up again, I didn't know how long I had been unconscious. My eyes were blurry, as if there was smoke.

I stared at it blankly for a while, then realized that it was the curtain on the bed.

At this time, a deep voice came from my ears, saying: "The situation in Xichuan is very complicated, far more serious than we thought before."

"Oh? Where did that sect come from?"

"I found out in Xichuan that the Changming Sect was formed by a combination of forces from the three provinces of Jiangnan, Xichuan, Mandi and other southwestern provinces that were dissatisfied with the imperial court. Their purpose was to overthrow the imperial court and restore the old system."

"Humph."

"The forces within the Changming Sect are very strictly divided, with Huisheng Pharmacy, Lecture Hall and Xishan Academy as branches, headed by one person and responsible for their respective tasks."

"In other words, there are three deacons in the Changming Sect?"

"Not bad."

"Have you found out who it is?"

"Their internal information is very tight, and I couldn't find out the specific identities of these three people. However, I found out that they were called the 'Third Master', a pharmacist who was in charge of Huisheng Pharmacy and controlled the black market in Jiangnan, the richest area.

More than half of the medicinal materials in circulation, it can be said that the entire Changming Sect's money is in his hands."

"This person should be Yao Lao."

"Yes. There is also a 'martial arts master' who was born in a martial arts hall. He is responsible for the personnel scheduling of the disciples of the Changming Sect and at the same time training elite killers. Although Huang Tianba refuses to speak, I think it is inseparable from him."
p>

"Then, where is the other one?"

"There is another one, called the 'Military Advisor'. On the surface, he teaches in the academy and teaches students, but in fact he is responsible for all actions within the sect. We have suffered losses on the road and in Yangzhou several times because of this person.

Given."

"Military advisor? It seems that this person is the core of the entire sect."

"And...since the sect was founded in Shu, and Shu is the territory of the Yan family, I guess that this military advisor should be a member of the Yan family!"

Yan family!

When I heard this, my chest felt tight and I was about to cough. I could only hold it in myself. I turned my head gently and found that I was sleeping in an exquisite bedroom, with a thick mattress on the carved wooden bed.

It is very comfortable. This room is also spacious and bright. There is a crystal bead curtain hanging on the door, which is swaying with a dreamy brilliance.

The voices of those two people came from outside.

I pushed myself up in a daze and tried to sit up. I stretched out my hand to lift the curtains, still thinking in my mind that what they just said should be the Yao Lao people who confronted them in the courtyard before. It seemed that they were two people.

It was a very big force, even related to the imperial court.

I managed to sit up without feeling dizzy, and heard Yang Yunhui's voice again, saying: "This time I went, I also found out something very important."

"What happened?"

"I heard that more than 20 years ago, that sect collected dozens of beauties throughout the southwest and trained them. Although this matter has been buried in dust for decades, some people still remember it, so they have heard some shadows.

”

"Beauty? What do they do?"

"I heard that the sect selected thirty women with outstanding appearance, character, and conduct, and locked them in a house for thirty days. On the first day, only twenty-nine people were given food and utensils. After two days,

, for twenty-eight people, and decrease accordingly."

As I listened, my heart suddenly jumped.

"There were no sharp weapons in the house, and they were not allowed to hurt anyone. After a month, only one or two people were able to come out alive. The women who survived were all very capable, thoughtful and vicious, and there was no blood on their hands.

, but all of them died."

I felt like I was sweating all over my body. This approach is so cruel!

Humans have ceased to be human beings, they are like wild beasts for human enjoyment, locked in a cage to fight and watch!

People outside seemed to have the same feeling. After a long silence, the man said in a hoarse voice: "What happened to the woman who survived?"

"Sent to the capital."

"..."

"Originally, we have been wondering why she had the marrow-cleansing flower in her hand. Although I have been searching in Xichuan for so long, there is no clue about her, but now it seems that among the women who survived, there should be

There is her."

"She...she..."

"Moreover, I had people check the daily records of more than 20 years ago overnight, and found that she and Miss Nangong's family were just married for promotion, so they were not real relatives. Her identity should still be

To be checked."

"Hmph, if it weren't for her, how could Li Zhu—"

He gritted his teeth when he said this, as if he wanted to crush something, but he didn't finish the sentence. However, the anger in his words could not be concealed, and even penetrated through the bead curtain, and I couldn't help but cough all of a sudden.

"Cough cough cough cough..."
