Zhu Xiaozhao put on his cloak again, and motioned for Yi Fei and Qiu Jiang to follow him.
As soon as the door was opened, Yi Fei immediately lifted Zhu Xiaozhao's cloak and got in, followed by the rushing wind and rain that drenched the cloak again.
Yi Fei laughed in his cloak, "This is a good idea."
Hongyu took a step too late, and was so angry that his chest felt tight. Fortunately, there was Qiu Jiang who also had no umbrella, so it was more balanced.
Zhu Xiaozhao led them across the yard to the woodshed. Although it was only a dozen or so steps away, Hongyu and Qiu Jiang were both drenched when they entered the woodshed.
Zhu Xiaozhao untied his cloak, and said to Yi Fei who was stuck on his back like a dog skin plaster: "Your Highness can come down now."
Yi Fei smiled and let go of him, looked around the chaifang and said, "Is there a secret passage here?"
"Yes." Zhu Xiaozhao walked to the stove, and after poking inside with his hand, a secret door appeared in the stove, revealing a hole just big enough for people to get in.
"After all, it's your lair." Yi Fei wasn't too surprised. As one of the former strongholds of Ruyimen, Zhu's shop must have its own special method of sending messages. It's just that who would think that there will be organs in the stove that burns the fire. They occupied this place for a long time, lighting fires here for three meals a day, and they didn't notice anything unusual.
And in such a hurricane weather, it was difficult to walk outside, but Zhu Xiaozhao came quietly, and only the secret way could explain it.
The four of them bent down and got into the hole one by one. Although the entrance is small, once inside there is another world. The secret path is nearly one foot high and five feet wide. Zhu Xiaozhao took a candlestick from the woodshed to lead the way, and the four of them walked through it without feeling cramped.
Yi Fei looked left and right, and suddenly said: "How is Master Zhu?"
Hongyu sneered at the end of the line and said, "Why don't you ask Jiang Wanyi?"
"Anyone in this world who is afraid of death will only have good food and clothing to provide for him."
Hongyu's lips moved a few times, as if she wanted to refute, but she didn't say anything in the end.
"Zhu Long is fine." It was Qiu Jiang who was walking second who said this.
Yi Fei really wanted to ask why, but for some reason, looking at Qiu Jiang's back in front of him, he didn't want to talk anymore. He had a hunch that even if he asked now, Qiu Jiang would not answer, and the truth would be revealed after seeing Mrs. Ruyi.
They have already walked ninety-nine steps, and they are only one step away from reaching Mrs. Ruyi.
The secret path is very long and has many branches. If Zhu Xiaozhao hadn't led the way, even if an outsider broke in, he would definitely get lost. Yi Fei memorized the road while walking, and resolutely chose to give up halfway through the memorization.
Sometimes, although self-esteem is unacceptable, I have to admit that compared with real perverts, I still have some shortcomings, such as the degree of fear of death.
Think about the tunnel in his prince's mansion, although it is very hidden in the lake, but it is just such a straight line, just for the first time to escape in case of danger.
And Mrs. Ruyi's tunnel is no longer just the three caves of the cunning rabbit, it is like a huge maze of ant nests, and I don't know how many years it took to dig it without anyone noticing. No wonder she was able to hide for so long without being found by Yishu.
After about a cup of tea, Zhu Xiaozhao stopped in front of one of the forked roads. There were three roads ahead, but he didn't choose any of them. Instead, he slapped the wall directly. Kakaka, several stone walls were removed from the wall, revealing a room.
Yi Feixiang: Well, a very simple but ingenious way to deceive one's eyes. When there are three intersections ahead, people will always habitually think about which intersection to choose, but they don't know that the real road is hidden on the wall of Laishilu.
The four of them walked into the room, and they were in a room full of water and vapor. The walls were all made of smooth marble, and there were heavy gauze curtains.
Lifting the curtain, there is a huge wooden barrel in the center of the room. The body of the barrel is made of high-quality rosewood and inlaid with many precious stones, revealing a strong sense of extravagance. The bucket was filled with water, which must have been hot at first, but it was now cold.
Next to the bucket is a set of low tables with silk handkerchiefs, water basins, and a copper sparrow incense burner. White smoke is rising from the peacock's three feathers, and the fragrance is refreshing.
Yifei looked at it with a tut. At this time, there was a knock on the real door ahead, and a childish voice said, "Young Master Zhu, are you okay? Madame, let me ask if you need anything."
Zhu Xiaozhao replied, "No need. I'll be fine soon."
A voice outside the door responded, and the footsteps gradually left.
It seems that the exit of the secret passage is the bathroom of a certain family. And Zhu Xiaozhao entered by taking a bath, and returned to Zhu's shop without anyone noticing.
It's just that, after going back and forth, it took almost an hour, and the bath was indeed too long.
Zhu Xiaozhao discarded the cloak in the secret passage, and the stone wall closed again with a click. The gap was almost invisible to the naked eye.
After doing all this, he opened the door, and there was no one outside.
But there was no wind or rain, and it was peaceful.
Yi Fei quickly walked a few steps out, only to find that the outside was still inside the house.
A huge vaulted roof covers everything in front of you: rockery and flowing water, green bamboos and viburnum flowers, exquisite small buildings are built along the winding cobblestone path, and there is a pillar supporting the roof every twenty steps , the strings are pulled between the pillars, and the lanterns are hung up and down continuously, and there is no end in sight at a glance.
In other words, they are now in a huge house, which has buildings, flower beds, roads, and a large pond. A few koi jump out of the water from time to time, splashing the water.
Yi Fei was overwhelmed by the extravagant scene in front of him, and murmured: "Is there such a fairyland in our Cheng Kingdom?"
Hongyu said: "Of course you don't know, because it was built by your good sister after you left the country last year."
Yi Fei was even more surprised: "Can all this be built in one year?"
Hongyu sneered: "Of course we can't build so many buildings and roads in one year, but how difficult is it to add a roof to the existing buildings?"
Yi Fei suddenly realized, and looked closely at the pillars supporting the arched roof, they were indeed new.
In other words, there are these exquisite houses and flower garden landscapes here, and Yishu added a cover to cover them all. In this way, the hurricane will not affect the life inside at all.
But why did Yishu do this? Is there anything special about this place?
"The name of this place is Sanpufang. It was originally the residence of the upstarts in Lianyan City. Last year, the national teacher at Sitiantai said that watching the stars at night, this place gathers fire and changes. It doesn't match the queen's horoscope, so all the men are forced to move out. Live in women. Then I added such a cover to suppress Fengshui. Nowadays, most of the people who live here are the wives or outhouses of dignitaries." Zhu Xiaozhao introduced the three of them into the nearest small building .
Inside the gate of the building, two beautiful little maids waited with smiles, without asking why Zhu Xiaozhao took the three of them back after taking a bath, led them respectfully to the second floor, and then bowed and retreated.
The small building has two floors in total, the rooms are not big, and they are very luxuriously furnished. Yi Fei glanced at it, and even the golden hooks hanging the curtains were engraved with gold and inlaid with jade, carved into the shape of a phoenix, secretly disgusted in his heart: It really is the residence of the new rich, a posture of fearing that others will not know that he is rich, vulgar and vulgar.
There are usually no more than two places for such extravagance: a courtyard for corrupt officials, or a place for romance.
According to him, this place should belong to the latter.
Mrs. Ruyi wants to hide and control the outside world at any time. Naturally, there is no better place than brothel songfang.
Zhu Xiaozhao walked to a beaded curtain and bowed deeply: "Ma'am, I have led the Seven Lords back."
Behind the bead curtain, one could vaguely see a person sitting in front of the vanity mirror with his back to the crowd. The emerald green robe was extremely spacious, floating quietly on the ground like a lotus leaf.
The two symbols of Mrs. Ruyi: a green robe and a thin waist.
Yi Fei's heart beat fast when he thought that he was about to meet the most mysterious and evil Mrs. Ruyi in the legend.
Qiu Jiang immediately knelt down, fell to the ground, and said softly, "I'm back."
Mrs. Ruyi didn't turn her head or move, she just looked in the mirror.
The room was silent. Because of the silence, more coercion was born.
I don't know how Qiu Jiang feels at this moment, anyway, Yi Fei feels that his chest is a little tight, and a thin layer of sweat can't help but break out on his back. This feeling is very similar to when I saw my father when I was a child, full of disgust, fear and unwillingness.
Just when he felt very uncomfortable, swish, an arrow fell from the sky and shot at Mrs. Ruyi in front of the dressing table.
The lady didn't move.
Yi Fei didn't want to move.
Seeing that Mrs. Ruyi was about to be shot in the head by that arrow, Qiu Jiang and Hongyu rushed towards her one after the other. Qiu Jiang pushed Hongyu away, hugged Mrs. Ruyi, and blocked the arrow with her back.
Just as the cold arrow touched her clothes, the next moment, her body suddenly lost weight and fell down.
Yi Fei was shocked, and flew over quickly, trying to catch Qiu Jiang, but the dark board on the floor bounced, knocked him away, and then closed with a bang.
Just as Yi Fei was about to slap the floor, he heard the wind blowing behind him, several black shadows crashed through the window, jumped into the room, and surrounded Zhu Xiaozhao. Two men in black saw Yi Fei behind the bead curtain, and immediately rushed over with their knives raised.
Yi Fei immediately hit the nearest window and jumped out, shouting as he fled: "The wind is blowing, Brother Zhu, take care!"
However, before he landed on the ground, he saw several men in black ambushing below, and immediately said badly, grabbed a pillar outside the building, and climbed back to the roof of the second floor like a cat. superior.
However, there were actually two men in black standing on the roof!
It was only then that Yi Fei remembered that the arrow shot at Mrs. Ruyi was shot from here, and cursed himself as an idiot, twisted his footsteps, ran wildly along the eaves, and then jumped to the roof of another small building.
The people in black gathered towards him like sharks smelling blood.
While running, Yi Fei groaned secretly. Could it be that Yi Shu found out where Mrs. Ruyi was hiding, so he arranged so many killers to wait early?
This time she was really killed by Mrs. Ruyi!
I don't know what happened to Qiu Jiang...
Just as Yi Fei thought of this, he suddenly bumped into a painting in front of him—a painting was erected on the roof of a certain small building at some point, and the scenery in the painting was perfectly integrated with the real scenery. Take a closer look, it just hit him head-on.
The painting is soft and does not hurt. But in the next moment, it was wrapped up softly.
Yifei struggled desperately, but the more he struggled, the tighter he was, and he was finally strangled, unable to move, and could only lie there panting like a fish off the shore.
People in black surrounded him, holding sharp knives, watching him.
Yi Fei smiled wryly: "Everyone, how much do you think I can buy my life?"
None of the people in black spoke, and two of them lifted him up one after the other, jumped off the roof, and returned to the building where Mrs. Ruyi was.
Yi Fei thought it was very strange that he had made a lot of noise by running wildly, but no one came out to watch the excitement. Are there no people living in those buildings?
While thinking, he was carried back to the bead curtain, saw Zhu Xiaozhao, and saw him standing there calmly, as if nothing happened just now.
Yi Fei immediately understood: "This is... a test?"
Mrs. Ruyi set up the last checkpoint for Qiu Jiang to test whether Qiu Jiang is loyal. In that fleeting moment, Qiu Jiang, who was seriously injured, rushed forward to save Mrs. Ruyi regardless of her own safety.
It's just... It's enough to test Qiu Jiang. Why do you get such a large number of people to arrest you?
Zhu Xiaozhao looked at him with a smile, waved his hands to signal the people in black to leave, and then made a silent gesture to Yi Fei, motioning him to follow him.
Yi Fei followed him downstairs in a daze, Zhu Xiaozhao tapped the wall below the stairs, and another secret door appeared, leading him in.
This is a very small room, with a mirror hanging on the wall, and the situation next door can be seen in the mirror.
Yi Fei saw Qiu Jiang at the first sight.
***
Qiu Jiang held Mrs. Ruyi and fell from the mechanism under the mat. Before landing, she pushed Mrs. Ruyi and landed first. Because of the use of internal force again, the old wound burst, and he spit out a mouthful of blood.
At the same time, the arrow that followed her was nailed to the ground against her bun.
Hongyu grabbed Mrs. Ruyi in mid-air, pushed her hard, and helped her land gently.
The green robe slowly fell down like an umbrella, revealing Mrs. Ruyi's face—an elegant and beautiful face that could not tell the age.
Qiu Jiang's heart must be—after five years of separation, she finally! again! Met this guy.
Mrs. Ruyi walked up to her slowly and held out her hand.
Qiu Jiang bit her lower lip, grabbed the hand and stood up.
After staring at her for a while, Madam Ruyi took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood stains around her mouth, and said softly, "I lost weight."
Qiu Jiang's eyes were slightly red, but she didn't say a word.
Mrs. Ruyi took out another bottle from her bosom, took out a few pills and handed them to Qiu Jiang. Qiu Jiang ate it without hesitation. Mrs. Ruyi smiled, smiling kindly and cordially.
Hongyu on the side looked very jealous and couldn't help curling her lips.
Mrs. Ruyi ordered: "Hongyu, give her the arrow."
Hongyu bent down, pulled out the arrow from the ground, and handed it to Qiu Jiang with some malicious expectation.
This arrow looks very old. There is rust on the arrowhead, and bruises remain in the bloodletting tank. Moreover, the arrowhead has been poisoned, showing a strange black-purple color under the light, like the wick of a burning candle.
Qiu Jiang is no stranger to the poison of this color, because she once had one of this poison in her prayer bead bracelet.
She suddenly understood what it was, and her hands began to tremble.
***
But Yifei was next door, and what he saw was this scene.
The mirror was very blurry, so he still couldn't see Mrs. Ruyi's face clearly, and could only distinguish the three of them based on their silhouettes. He could see that Qiu Jiang's mood was fluctuating a lot at the moment.
Qiu Jiang rarely loses control like this. What's the secret behind that arrow?
***
"This is the venom you extracted from the sea snake. After the venom penetrates into the blood, it will attack very quickly and destroy the blood coagulation. The poisoned person will die of pain within twelve hours." Mrs. Ruyi's voice was very sad, "One Today, years ago, Ji Ying was shot and killed by Wei Yuheng while returning to the city, and it was this arrow."
Not only her hands, but Qiu Jiang's heart was also trembling.
"Wei Yuheng didn't want Ji Ying to die, but someone changed his arrows and quenched your poison."
Qiu Jiang stared straight at the black in front of him, and asked in a hoarse voice after a long time, "Who is it?"
"You know who it is." Mrs. Ruyi's eyes became very complicated, "That person will kill you first; then kill me; then kill...Ji Ying."
***
Yi Fei was surprised. Unexpectedly, this arrow was related to Ji Ying.
And this further confirmed his previous suspicion: Qiu Jiang really paid special attention to Ji Ying. Now it seems that not only Qiu Jiang, but Mrs. Ruyi is also concerned about Ji Ying?
Why?
And is the person they mentioned, Pin Cong Mu? The person who really killed Ji Ying was Pin Congmu? !
***
In the dark room, Qiu Jiang held the arrow in his hand, and looked as if he had been struck by lightning. It took him a long time to ask in a low voice, "Why did the teacher do this?"
"Because he wants to take Ruyi Gate from us."
"Where is he now?"
"I want to know too." Madam Ruyi said, putting her hands on her shoulders, "I asked Hongyu and Xiaozhao to pick you up for the same goal - to find Pin Congmu, for Ji Ying, for I, avenge the hundreds of disciples who were killed in the bombing in the base camp!"
Qiu Jiang looked up at her, suddenly felt something, and grabbed her wrist to feel her pulse: "Your body..."
"I've gone mad twice, and now I'm a useless person, with a short lifespan." Mrs. Ruyi said calmly.
"Then you used this arrow to test me just now? What if I didn't come forward to save you?"
Mrs. Ruyi glanced at Hongyu, and sighed, "It's not that I want to test you, but Hongyu insists on doing so."
"That's right, I can't worry about you!" Hongyu stared at her, not hiding the hatred in her eyes, "Wu'er and the others died because of you. Besides, Feng Xiaoya said that you are her fiancee, Your name is Jiang Jiang!"
Qiu Jiang lowered her eyes slightly, wondering what she was thinking.
"You actually remember who you are, right? A person like you was taken captive to Ruyimen, from Feng Xiaoya's fiancée, a well-loved pharmacy lady who grew up, to a **** killer. You Will you be willing? Will you really be loyal to your wife? Your infatuated husband, Feng Xiaoya, has been waiting for you to change your mind and turn to the light!"
Qiu Jiang remained silent.
Hongyu said again: "These years, everyone has said that you are the future Mrs. Ruyi, because you are the only woman among the Ruyi Seven Treasures. However, the reason why the Seven Treasures are only a woman is because other outstanding female disciples have been rejected. You killed it in various ways!"
Qiu Jiang raised her eyebrows, neither admitting nor denying it.
"In order to avoid your sharp edge, I have no choice but to hide my strength, cling to Wu'er, and walk around the door as his woman. But, I don't accept it!"
At that time, she had just returned from Xie's house in Nanyan. Although she had obtained the full formula and was promoted to Qi'er by his wife, she didn't have much joy of success. She only felt exhausted physically and mentally, as if she had suffered a serious illness.
She just wanted to go back to her room and rest.
But on the way, Hongyu stopped her.
Ruby said to her, "My name is Agate."
She frowned, a little impatiently: "So?"
"I have been changed to Hongyu now. But, sooner or later, I will call back the name of Onyx." Hongyu left after saying this.
Qiu Jiang thought, probably from that day on, Hongyu regarded herself as an imaginary enemy.
She finally opened her mouth to respond: "Now, do you feel that you are qualified to have a showdown with me?"
"I've got my wife's promise."
"But you haven't killed Pin Boss yet. The Ruyi Gate is not yours yet. And I'm back."
"You are already a useless person, even your magic beads have been burned, I can kill you with just one finger! If you come back like this, what can you do?"
"Jiang Wanyi said that my injury will heal in half a year."
"Do you think I'll give you half a year?" Hongyu said, pulling out the dagger from her boots. The shining blade of the dagger illuminated Qiu Jiang's eyebrows and the **** flower carved by Yi Fei in the dark room. .
Qiu Jiang suddenly laughed, and even the **** flower bloomed: "Madam is still here, are you going to kill me?"
"The first rule of the Ruyi Gate is 'the winner is the king'. I just want to defeat you in front of my wife and make you lose completely! Even if you come back, so what? The only one who inherits the mantle of Mrs. Ruyi will only be me. !"
The flickering candlelight dragged Hongyu's figure to the ground, making her look extremely tall.
She waited for this day for a long time.
She paid a lot for this day.
From the first time she saw Qi'er in Ruyi Gate, she regarded her as the biggest competitor in her life and wanted to beat her very much. Therefore, she became Wu'er's lover first, because Tridacna was in charge of monitoring his fellow disciples, and Wu'er had the power to monitor Qi'er. She clings to him, trying to catch Qi'er's tricks and mistakes, but Qi'er is too cunning, everything he does is black and white, like a most speculative weed, no matter how the wind blows, it can fall to the most favorable direction On one side, there is no flaw.
Hongyu could only continue to wait. She waited and waited, but waited for Wu'er's death.
Fortunately, although Wu'er is dead, Qi'er is also missing, and may even have betrayed the organization and fled in seclusion.
This discovery made her very excited, but also somewhat lost.
The excitement is because there is no opponent, and the disappointment is also because there is no opponent.
She can only stick to Mrs. Ruyi, be a loyal dog, never leave Mrs. Ruyi, and never give up even in the most difficult times. Because she knew that if Mrs. Ruyi died, everything she had done before would be in vain.
She is not a fool, she cannot swing between Mrs. Ruyi and Pin Cong Mu, and most importantly, Pin Cong Mu has never given her an olive branch. She can only go one way to the end.
Huang Tian paid off, and her loyalty finally touched Mrs. Ruyi. Mrs. Ruyi promised that as long as she could kill Pin Congmu, the Ruyi Gate would be hers.
But at this time, Qi'er reappeared!
She didn't want to tell Madam about this, but Zhu Xiaozhao's big mouth said it first. That being the case, then defeat Qi'er in front of Madam! This kind of victory is even more exciting for her than inheriting Mrs. Ruyi's mantle.
The winner is king.
The betrayal organizer dies.
Ruyi Gate, only these two rules.
If you can't prove that Qi'er betrayed Ruyimen, then use any means to defeat her!
Thinking of this, Hongyu shook the dagger in her hand and asked, "Qi'er, do you dare to fight?"
***
Yi Fei was in the next room, saw this scene, and also heard Hong Yu's question.
His mood is very complicated.
And compared to the confrontation between Qiu Jiang and Hong Yu, what is even more strange is—why did Zhu Xiaozhao bring him to watch?
What is his purpose?
He couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhu Xiaozhao, Zhu Xiaozhao sensed his gaze, and smiled at him, still three parts kind, three parts enthusiastic, three parts considerate and one part mysterious.
Yi Fei shuddered, thinking that he was indeed a businessman rolling in a pile of incense powder, his smile was disgusting.
***
Qiu Jiang didn't look at Hongyu, she just looked at the poisonous arrow in her hand, the trembling and grief had stopped, and now there was only peace.
"Hongyu, before the battle, let me correct you on three points - one, I am not Jiang Jiang."
"Sophistry! If you weren't Jiang Jiang, you would have been killed by Feng Xiaoya long ago!"
"It is precisely because I am afraid that he will kill me that Jiang Jiang exists."
Hongyu's face suddenly turned pale, as if thinking of something.
But Qiu Jiang's eyes were only calm, and under the edge of the dagger, it looked like some kind of pity.
This feeling of pity stimulated Hongyu even more, and she dared not say anything: "You mean... Jiang Jiang is a fake?"
"Jiang Jiang is real. But after Madam finds out that Feng Letian is looking for such a person, she will naturally not keep this big trouble."
Mrs. Ruyi said again: "Feng Xiaoya wanted to find Jiang Jiang, so she made up a lie that the Four Kingdoms is in his hands. But I followed the plan and sent Qi'er to approach him pretending to be Jiang Jiang, for Yan's plan to play the spring." prepare for."
Qiu Jiang said indifferently: "If you want to replace Yan Wang without anyone noticing, you must first cut off his two arms: one is Feng Xiaoya, and the other is Feng Letian. From the beginning, I ran after their father and son."
"So, Qiu Jiang's **** is not Jiang Hua's meaning at all, but Jiang Jiang's hint. I sacrificed three capable disciples in Feng Xiaoya just to convince him that Qi'er is his fiancée who was sold out .”
"He believed it. That's why his father is dead. Even if his father is dead, he can't kill me. Because he thinks I'm Jiang Jiang." At this point, Qiu Jiang showed an extremely cruel smile. Such a murderous person, seeing this smile, shuddered.
***
Yi Fei, who was separated by a wall, was also shuddering.
In fact, this matter has nothing to do with him directly, but along the way, as Feng Xiaoya's ally and Qiu Jiang's companion, all the love-hate entanglements between the two of them fell into his eyes.
He was like a spectator sitting in the first row of the stage, watching a drama with ups and downs and intricate drama.
There are two people in the play, the man is crazy and the woman is miserable, which makes him inevitably fluctuate with his emotions.
But now, actually tell him that everything is fake! Is it a Ruyimen scam from beginning to end? !
Although he guessed that Qiu Jiang might not be Jiang Jiang, he never expected that Qiu Jiang was impersonating Jiang Jiang on purpose. In other words, from the beginning to the end, Feng Letian and Feng Xiaoya, the father and son, were played around by her and Mrs. Ruyi. Feng Letian sacrificed his head. And Feng Xiaoya... lost her heart.
Killing people.
The world's worst.
This is wishful door?
This is Ruyimen's most outstanding masterpiece - Ghost Blood Agate Qier?
Yi Fei looked at the distorted and deformed Qiu Jiang in the mirror, and suddenly found that she was indeed a painting, and every detail was artificially painted.
He never knew the person under the painted skin.
***
"So what?" Hongyu was silent for a while, then suddenly screamed, "Even if you are not Jiang Jiang, so what?"
"That shows that my mission was very successful. When I return now, Ruyimen should be mine."
"Just based on who you are now?"
"That's the second point I want to correct you—I look weak, but it's only an illusion."
Hongyu's complexion changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "I don't believe it!"
"You can try."
"What if I win?"
"If you win, I will return the name of the onyx to you. From now on, I will listen to you and do whatever you say."
"It's a deal!" As soon as Hong Yu finished speaking, she rushed over.
Qiu Jiang was less than a foot away from her, and since she had no Buddhist beads, Hongyu was confident that she would hit it with every blow.
After killing Qi'er, the Ruyi Gate will be hers!
Hongyu's movements were extremely fast, almost the fastest in her life. She deliberately raised the eyebrows, because she didn't like that **** flower!
However, she forgot that there was another person in the room.
Before she pierced Zhongqiu Jiang's eyebrows, a white light pierced her back and penetrated her body instantly.
Hongyu's dagger touched Qiu Jiang's eyebrows, but only just touched, and then fell from his hand, jingling, and fell to the ground.
She lowered her head to look at the tip of the sword protruding from her heart, and then turned her head to look behind her—Madam Ruyi was holding a sword in her hand. There were two long ribbons on the hilt, and the sharp blade was stuck in the in your own body.
Hongyu tremblingly said: "Why, why?"
It was obviously a duel between her and Qi'er, why did Madam want to fight?
She didn't take care of Madam, because Madam has lost her internal energy, and because the two of them have depended on each other for life and death for the past year, sharing joys and sorrows.
She never expected that Madam would choose to kill her...
"I'm getting old..." Mrs. Ruyi let go of the hilt of her sword, and coughed a few times.
The green clothes are no longer there, but the thin waist is still the same.
This is the first time Qiu Jiang saw Mrs. Ruyi again after five years. She has a fake face as described by Dao Dao. Therefore, her skin is still so smooth, her facial features are still so perfect, and she wears a jet-black wig on her head. but…
She is indeed old.
Aging leaked from her slightly staggering steps, slightly hunched back, and the rotten body odor that even the powder could not cover up, like a blower box that was in disrepair, and it would be broken at any time.
"So, you don't want to pass on the Ruyi Gate to me, but you insist on passing it on to her?" Blood flowed from Hongyu's body continuously, and at the same time, her tears flowed out, "Why? Why?! "
All these years, she was the only one who stayed by Madam's side faithfully;
On the day of the landslide, she carried her mad madam on her back and walked barefoot for three days and three nights before escaping;
She steals and kills everywhere in order to treat her illness, and the food she steals is given to the wife first;
She took care of this dying woman like a biological mother...
Although it was to get her power, it did give her sincerity.
But between herself and Qi'er, Madam still chose Qi'er...
The shock and sadness in Hongyu's eyes turned into anger: "You're unfair, I don't accept it!"
Mrs. Ruyi sighed in her eyes: "Silly boy, how can there be fairness in the Ruyi Gate?"
"But the strong is king, and you are the sect master, let alone break the rules!"
Inside the Ruyi Sect, everything depends on strength, just like raising Gu, all Qibao came out of fighting all the way, this is the biggest reason why Hongyu dared to challenge Qi'er in front of his wife.
But this time, Mrs. Ruyi broke this door rule.
Qiu Jiang laughed suddenly, full of malice: "This is the third point I want to correct you - you think that I killed all the female competitors in order to be Mrs. Ruyi. The fact is just the opposite - it is to make me As Mrs. Ruyi, so there is no second female candidate."
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that from the very beginning, from the moment I was born, I was destined to be the next Mrs. Ruyi."
As Qiu Jiang said, she walked up to Mrs. Ruyi and stood side by side with her.
The silhouettes of the two were gilded with a layer of gold by the only wall lamp, and Hongyu suddenly realized that the two looked alike.
The curvature of the bridge of the nose and the position of the jaw are like two sides of a mirror, exactly the same!
"She is... yours..." Hongyu suddenly had a terrible thought, which made her tremble again, "Daughter?"
Qiu Jiang chuckled lightly: "No."
Before Hongyu could breathe a sigh of relief, Qiu Jiang said again: "She is my aunt."
***
Yi Fei's hand suddenly grabbed the mirror.
Then he turned his head and looked at Zhu Xiaozhao with a questioning look. Zhu Xiaozhao nodded his head lightly, confirming his words.
Qi'er is Mrs. Ruyi's niece!
It sounds incredible, but after thinking about it, I feel that if a sect wants to continue, blood relationship is indeed the safest guarantee.
It's just that Hongyu didn't know about this matter, but Zhu Xiaozhao knew about it in advance? Why?
The doubts in Yi Fei's heart became deeper and deeper, and the ominous premonition became more and more serious.
***
Hongyu stared steadily at Qiu Jiang, then at Mrs. Ruyi, and after a while, she laughed, louder and louder, with countless blood froth coming out of her mouth, but she ignored it and continued to laugh loudly.
Qiu Jiang said lightly: "Now, are you convinced?"
"I obey, of course I obey, what can compare to blood relationship? Just like the emperor Lao Tzu, no matter how loyal the minister is, the throne will be passed on to his own son..." Hongyu smiled contemptuously, looking at the pair of aunt and nephew in front of her , "I admire you, ma'am. I really admire you. The training at Ruyimen is so hard, the exams are so difficult, and the tasks are so disgusting. Those of us who are unlucky have no choice but to bear it. But you even your niece She is willing to come in and hang out with us, let her kill her father! Kill her friend! Kill her father-in-law! Kill her husband..."
When Hongyu said this, she turned her eyes to Qiu Jiang again, looking at her, like looking at the most pitiful person in the world: "Do you think you have won? You are wrong. You are the one who lost. Because I'll be free from this **** place in no time. And what about you? You have to live, waiting for a steady stream of enemies to come to you for revenge, waiting for ambition and desire to eat you back. I bless you, Qi'er. I bless you Successfully take over the position of Mrs. Ruyi! Bring the Ruyi Gate forever! Live forever in this cold, disgusting, **** hell! No father, no friends, no husband, no relatives!"
After finishing speaking, she firmly grasped the tip of the sword on her heart, and pulled out the whole sword from the front, and also pulled out a long ribbon.
Blood spurted out like a thick slurry as the ribbon was pulled, but she seemed to feel nothing, and continued to pull it.
The ribbon on the sword was three feet long, and she pulled it out for a long time.
Later, the movements became slower, and when she was about to pull them all out, her legs could no longer support her, and she fell to her knees with a snap. With the sound of bones breaking, she also fell forward and fell to the ground. At the feet of Mrs. Ruyi.
Mrs. Ruyi finally showed some unbearable color in her eyes: "Red jade..."
Hongyu said coldly: "My name is Agate! Shen Agate!" Then she pulled hard, and the last piece of ribbon was finally pulled away from her body and fell to the ground with flesh and blood.
At the same time, her breathing stopped.
Mrs. Ruyi coughed again. She didn't know if it was because of her old age. She felt that her heart softened a lot. When she saw such a scene, she couldn't bear it.
Qiu Jiang kicked Hongyu's body with his feet, raised his eyebrows and said, "A dwarf has a lot of blood."
Mrs. Ruyi looked at her with mixed emotions in her heart, which was very complicated.
After so many years, she finally managed to train Qi'er to be the best heir, but at this moment, Qi'er's cold blood even made her feel afraid.
"I only have you left..." Mrs. Ruyi was extremely sad.
